Absolutely Good News!!!

 A Letter from Father God...

Dear Sons and Daughters,

I am coming to visit my people, my bride, my church again!

It has always been my desire and is still true today for you to live my Presence, for us to live intertwined with one another here on earth just as I did in the beginning, the Garden of Eden, with Adam and Eve, and throughout eternity.  

But something happened...

Deception crept into the garden and Adam and Eve were deceived by the serpent, Satan.  Because of this one act of disobedience man took on a sinful nature.This caused a separation between us for I am a holy God.  Nevertheless, I had a plan to reconnect us.  

That plan was and is still in effect today.  That plan is JESUS CHRIST!




In times past, I created standards, rules, commandments that if followed to the letter would allow my people to dwell here on earth with me.  It was known as the Old Covenant.  This was only a temporary solution until the eternal plan arrived on earth.  Unfortunately, this created a fear of My people ever approaching and enjoying My Presence.  So, I selected and set apart a few to act as the mediator between Myself and My people.  This went on for quite some time.  It didn't produce the desired relationship I wanted nor was it the permanent cure to man's sinful nature.  

Enters My plan, the New Covenant, Jesus!


I sent my Son, Jesus Christ, into the world as a gift so that if anyone believes in Jesus they can reconnect to Me again now and throughout eternity. (John 3:16-17)  The original plan was reestablished again.


How do I become part of the plan or New Covenant

  • The first way to approach God is through His Son, Jesus.  If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, that's the beginning. Jesus is the only Way! (John 14:6, Romans 10:9-13)

  • God wants to be your God (Father) and for us to be His people.  He wants to be with us, lead and guide us, not in condemnation but to enjoy doing life together. (Genesis 3:8-9, Exodus 19:5, John 3:16-17, 1 Peter 2:4-10, Revelations 21:3)

  • Live in reverential feal or awe of Him as believers who know this life is temporary. (1 Peter 1:1, 17)


God is beckoning us to come close, not in fear, but recgonizing that He is a holy God and we are an unclean (sinful) people.  But have hope, Jesus has made it possible for us to come close, to encounter this holy God, our Abba Father!  How did Jesus accomplish this task?  By dying on the cross for our sins.  In the book of John, Jesus declared that he was the Way, the Truth, and the Life.  No one comes to the Father by no other way.  To know Jesus is to know the Father.

The reverential fear of the Lord is coming back to the church.  Purify yourselves for the fear of the Lord is coming!  

Love,

Abba God
