As a father and a preacher and in all my doing of my short life I have this task to bring forth Christ in myself and in my children and disciples. This must be done in a way that takes the focus away from me and away from Adam and sets up success in for and by Christ.

Now I’m on campus and speaking to young men. How do I set them up to grow into Christ and to stay clean, and grow clean from Adam, Mammon and Babylon?

How do I disciple and prepare them as an offering for Christ, and in Christ.

All the men of God, the revivals, the reformers and the great ministries in history got defiled, contaminated and derailed over time, despite how pure they may have started. This is not aimed at criticizing anybody but we will be stupid if we don’t see the contamination of man (Adam means man in Hebrew).

THE SPIRIT

Well.., God has offered a simple, “one size fits” all solution and we must simply find a methodology in THE SPIRIT that focuses on this one glorious solution again, and again again. Our human grasp of any methodology will off course be defiled, contaminated, and imperfect from the start, but is there a way to overcome that contamination of Adam and grow better over time, CHRIST, CHRIST, CHRIST by the SPIRIT.

God forbid that we get clever and think we have a solution and yet God curse us and remove our name for the Lamb’s book if we do not, with all our feeble might, focus on HIS SOLUTION which is CHRIST CRUCIFIED.

God is speaking in only thing – His Son

God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,2. has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;3. who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,4. having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
Hebrews 1:1-4

but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,
1 Corinthians 1:23

For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
1 Corinthians 2:2

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified?
Galatians 3:1

There is no other message and no other plan that Christ crucified. This must be revealed to willing hearts by the Spirit. Men can speak words of truth that are still dead ad hollow if the Spirit does not enthuse them.

Sela!

Psalm 119

If the young men grasp this, then they will not follow me but the will follow Christ onto that cross, daily and into glory

Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.24. “For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.25. “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroyed or lost?26. “For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father’s, and of the holy angels.
