In the movie “Hoosiers” a school basketball coach (Gene Hackman) teaches his raw and undisciplined basketball team the true meaning of the word “Team”.

How? By breaking them down... right to the foundations...only to build them back up - all the Way from the bottom. It was a hard lesson to learn - a lesson in patience and humility - if you will, a pressure test on an individual’s heart. Some games in the season were lost - and badly, as each individual in the team learned to look not only to their own ability, but to the ability of the man next to him. The movie climaxes as predicted, with a great victory for the team- but it was a victory that came through pressure and humbling...and one that could never have come, had the boys not learned to see themselves as one unit...

And this is exactly what God is teaching us His Church in this season.

Jesus will not come back to a one- man show; He will not return to an elitist club, nor the “select few”: He will return for an Ekklesia - a gathering, separated from the world, that is functioning as One - in Him and each other...One Body under One Head: A Team...An Army... A Family. 

Read Hebrews 12:1-3

The Final Reformation Volume III Ch.2 The Beautiful Remnant of America - Part 2

    The Beautiful Remnant of America Part II  So they shall fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord drives.   Isaiah 59:19 Before continuing, please ensure that you have first read Chapter 1 ~ The Olive Press   i ~ The “Hidden” Remnant   “What is a tree without its roots? Roots expand underground in the darkness - the hidden place that the tree may stand firmly grounded through the storm. This expansion does not come without faith, time, patience and endurance, and goes entirely un-noticed and un-acclaimed,  because it takes place underground . And yet we know that this expansion is essential to the life and health of the tree.  So it is for the Church in this hour… “What is a house without its foundations?  A house built quickly- on sand  - will not stand - but the one who patiently and deliberately builds his ...

The Final Reformation: Vol. I Ch.2- From the Great Olive Press to The Great Awakening

  America -  From the Great Olive Press to The Great Awakening   This is most powerful thing I have ever seen in my life … Part I America’s great upheaval … (the shaking of a nation) I saw the Land all over America, as if in massive upheaval - like soil being turned over by a huge rotavator, ready for seed baring. (See John 12:24 ) This seemed to be happening throughout the nation. What was causing this…? I saw what I thought were the hands of the Lord, bringing up a flat stone from deep within the ground; whether this was happening quickly or slowly I could not tell…but I could see it coming up.  The earth around was shaking, cracking, being churned up in great mounds…all over the nation. I could hear the noise, like an earthquake.  Everything that had been built by human hands, to cover over this Foundation Stone, was breaking up and falling away…I saw many great “Mountains” (monuments of Finance, Education and others) built to the glory of man, that were lif...
