Ministry Update from Jeff

Hey Everyone,

Just thought I would provide an update at what’s going on at my table. First off, the worship we had was wonderful, I felt a strong sense of people coming together in unity before our Lord !!

It is awesome to see the pure message of the Cross do it’s work in someones life. Last night we spoke on the topic of righteousness, what kind of righteousness do we need to be accepted by God? We spoke about the reality that it is His Righteousness and His Righteousness alone that is imputed to us that makes one accepted in the beloved, we spoke about this imputed righteousness being the basis for all of our approach to the Father and that as Children of God we are as righteous before him as Jesus was because it was his very righteousness that we possess.

I see so many at my table that were brought up in a religious ideology that prevents them from feeling accepted by our Father with the result being a constant sense of unworthiness based on an religious introspection and most likely their own past. I can see after weeks of the application of the truth of Christ and him crucified that the message is getting into the hearts of some and they are getting free right in front of my eyes, you can see a rest settling in on their hearts knowing that as children of God the work of Christ has made them fully accepted in the beloved. I am sure that many of these men have never felt accepted at all.
