Preparing Home Fellowship Families
for the Dark Days of Chastisement
"I
tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you
ask for,
it will be done for you by my Father in heaven.
For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them"
(Matthew
18:19,20).
In the top section of this page we've expanded and revised the material in Restoring the Early Church, which is based on research we did in Israel and in subsequent exploration. These teachings are designed for your study and discussion so that your own faith journey may reflect the spiritual power and relational intimacy experienced by the earliest followers of Jesus.
If you're planning to go through these lessons with others (highly recommended!), we encourage you to introduce them to this material by using Lesson 1, Introduction to the Hebraic Restoration. CLICK on it below and print it out. Then give it to those with whom you expect to go through this series.
At the bottom of this page is an update to the lessons on home fellowships: Preparing Home Fellowship Families for the Dark Days of Chastisement. Through these lessons our desire is to help individuals and families be prepared to support each other so that not one denies their faith when our Father chastises this nation for its sins, but rather serve our Lord in the face of tremendous adversity and persecution. These issues must be discussed in advance so that you, and those you would fellowship with, are mutually committed as to why you need to prepare now, and to be equally committed as to how you will prepare yourselves.
The issue for you NOW is to scrutinize you own life to determine if the love of Jesus is at the core of who you are. And, to look around you to see who will join you in serving our Lord as lights in darkness.
