The birth of Jesus Christ included the announcement of world peace. “Glory
to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men”(Luke
2:14). However, that promise has not yet reached its
fulfillment.
Christianity has experienced many revivals and renewals throughout
history,
but the goal of peace on earth has not been attained. Each of these
revivals
gained powerful momentum, and then, that momentum subsided.
The Church has risen up only to fall back. But why? Could it be that
key
foundational principles have been lacking? I think so. It could be
compared
to a house built on a weak foundation. The building goes well at first,
but as the building grows, the foundation eventually crumbles.
Therefore, Purpose Ministries is a teaching and equipping ministry with
a primary focus of teaching foundations. Our mission is to raise up the
age-old foundations (see Isa. 58:12). To do so
is
to...
-enable the house of God to be built, and to prepare the way for
the appearing of Jesus Christ and His kingdom.
Peace on earth and good will toward men: It's not a holiday slogan;
it's a mission statement for all Christians.
"And those from among you will rebuild the ancient ruins; You will raise up the age-old foundations; And you will be called the repairer of the breach, The restorer of the streets in which to dwell" (Isa 58:12).
