Blood-Bought Worldنموونە

We don’t need some kind of cheap spray-on revival. We don’t need some kind of dress-up, some kind of toupee of holiness. The Church is already full of enough clowns and cowards. We need the Holy Spirit to come and raise us from the dead. We need Jesus to breathe His life into us. And when this happens it will be unmistakable, because it will make lots of people really mad. 

It will turn the world upside again, like it did the Roman Empire centuries ago. And for the first time in a long time, we will hear men preaching all of Jesus, all of the Bible, and, for a change, they will speak clearly into the microphone, and people will actually listen because they have met the real Jesus. They won’t sell out for anyone, because now they have backbones.

When people know the real Jesus they become real men and real women—really human—and that makes them bold, creative, fearless, compassionate, and glad. When people know Jesus, they know they have nothing to lose, nothing to fear, and the world is before them. And Jesus sends them out with His blessing to discover, invent, create, rule, bless, heal, explore, and die with smiles on their faces, because they know the Man who is truly Alive, and now they can’t stay dead anymore.
