    Universality Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 11, 2003
    based on 23 ratings
     | 13,338 views

    Thanks to Constantine’s move, the church gradually began to think of its universality as power rather than as an evangelical mandate. Christ is to be lord of our political life, our cultural life, our everyday life -- every aspect.

    Holiness is the gift of an identity, appearing to be too good to be true, but received by accepting forgiveness.

    Today’s message is framed by incidents provided by two church members. I will not be naming the players, but they have given me both the beginning and the ending of this message on holiness. The beginning: a few days ago one of you told me that you came to worship each Sunday so that you could ...read more

    Everyone who calls on God the Father in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ is connected, willy-nilly, to every other Christian. We haven’t any choice about it. We are one, like it or not.
