Proclaiming the Death of Christ Jesus
In the Book of Acts 2:42 the blueprint of gathering together is different from the Church as we know it today. We read, "They continued steadfastly in the Apostle's Doctrine in fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers." Here, we find the structure of the Meeting Room Hubs.
The Apostle's Doctrine: The word Apostle means 'sent ones' who have a message of being reconciled unto God. This Ministry and Word of Reconciliation is discovered in 2 Corinthians 5:17-21. Download your free ebook, or request a printed copy.
Fellowship: Here, the word fellowship represents "The gathering around the Altar and Sacrifices of Christ Jesus" according to the original greek word, in the Bible Concordance. Here, fellowship is not so much going out to lunch after the gathering or sharing with each other about your week. This kind of fellowship is how everyone comes together to reflect upon what Jesus became in His earthly ministry to fulfill righteousness through the Sacrifices foretold in the Old Testament. When Jesus was giving Holy Communion in the Book of Matthew 26 He said, "Take eat of this bread broken for you. As often as you partake of this bread do this in remembrance of Me." As we meditate upon the Sacrifices that Jesus became each Sacrifice represents the events and Life of Christ Jesus.
Breaking Bread: As each person reflects upon the Sacrifices that Jesus Christ became Holy Communion proclaims that through these Sacrifices you are already an overcomer. Here, the 3-Step Method of Reflection is practiced in the Meeting Room Hubs on the Body of Christ as represented in His death.
What part of my life is represented the most at the time of the gathering through the Covenant Sacrifices of Christ Jesus? Reflection and personal journaling is encouraged at this time, along with breaking of bread. Here, the words "Jesus broke bread" is the Greek word "To shatter death." This breaking of bread speaks of walking in a life of living out of the victories of Christ Jesus in His death.
3a. Connect & Identify : Here, "What part of the Body of Christ Jesus is my current reflection?" After identifying the Sacrifice[s] that Jesus became as your current reflection we move to Step-2 Reflection.
3b. Reflect & Journal: After you have connected and identified your current challenges and joys to the Sacrifce[s] that Jesus Christ became, "This is your personal time of quiet reflection and journaling in the victories you have already been given in God's Rest and Peace." Take time to journal, "What is God speaking to me?" Practice hearing God's voice to you, from inward reflection and listening.
3c. Act & Respond: After you have journaled and listened from within it is time to act by "Practicing being filled inwardly with the Father's Love, through the Sacrifice of Christ [that you chose as His Testimony and Spirit] in you, through the Father's Love." Here, simply acknowledge that you are already reconciled in the Father [Free book 2 Corinthians 5:17-21] and from the top of your head be filled with the Father's Love.
[Proclaiming the Resurrection of Christ Jesus]
After you have participated in the 3 Step Method of "Fellowship through the breaking of bread through connecting and identifying the Life and Events of Christ Jesus through the Sacrifices He became as foretold by the Prophets of Old" you continue steadfastly in the Apostles Doctrine through the "Reflection upon the Cup of Communion [the Blood of Jesus] for the remission of sins. [A life separate, or missing of the mark, from being reconciled in God.]
During this time of Holy Communion as you drink of the Cup, this is where you reflect upon "Being filled with the Spirit of the Fruits of the Father's Love through Christ Jesus in you." It is the joining of the Father's Love through Christ Jesus in you that you are now being more intimately joined inwardly in the Father to "Rise above every situation in your life in Love over your circumstances, or-the practice of being inwardly filled in greater Resurrected Life."
Nothing is more Fulfilling then through this practice of "Drinking of the Wine" in remembrance of the cleansing [inward] Covenant Life of the Father's Love through Christ Jesus in our lives. The old life continues to remain passed, and newness of life continually comes forth through the Fruits of the many revelations of the Father's Love. [Galatians 5]. It is the work of the Holy Spirit to take what the Father has done through Christ in you to bring out of you and overshadow you in God's Rest for every day life.
It is through this practice that "Disciples are made of Covenant with God" allowing Acts 2:42 to be our center. Here we learn that a few insights, which are:
The Altar of the Lord: The Altar of the Lord is His Covenant Sacrifices that He became being filled inwardly in the Father's Fruits of His Spirit in YOU to walk in newness of Life. Here, the Altar is not where you go and confess your sins [as in a Traditional Church Gathering] and people prophesying over you or huddles of people laying hands on you that you don't even know. Here, the purity of the Altar of the Lord is a Reformation in your life to Restore "Being filled in the Father's Love through Christ Jesus in you, and walking in the newness of Life through the Person of the Holy Spirit." You now carry the Altar in you [the Sacrifices that Christ Jesus became] in the Father's Love. This is the pure work of the Spirit and Testimony of Christ in you. Hallelujah!
The One Person Pulpit: Here, each person in the Body of Christ not only becomes the Altar but becomes the Sermon of the Life of Christ Jesus in them through the Father's Fruits of the Father's Love, made alive by the Person of the Holy Spirit to walk in Reformed Reconcilation. You now carry the death, the resurrection, and the soon coming of the Hope of Glory [Christ Jesus] in you and as your life.
Continued Steadfastly: Pure evangelism of the Great Commission is how the Father's Fruits of His Love harvests Christ Jesus in YOU. This Harvest is ripe and ready to be filled with Love. It is the work of the Holy Spirit to take of the Father's Work through Christ in YOU and hover over you in the Father's Rest and Righteous Covenant as a Fruitful Vine of His many revelations of Love. [Galatians 5]
Binding and Loosing: Living this Life of God's Rest through habitual delight in the Father's Love is what binds on earth as it is in heaven. Unlike the traditional Church setting that is focused on demonology without the Covenant Life with God, and the preaching of knowledge of the Word without the inward life of the works of the Father's Love through the Covenant Life of Christ Jesus actively working in you.
Prayer: Did you know the word prayer also means, "To join and unite?" It is through the Father's Fruits of His flowing through Christ Jesus and His Sacrifices through your desired end, that prayer is made before your confession is spoken. Unlike the Traditional Church setting.
The differences are endless!
