“Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine,” – Exodus 19:5 NIV
“God’s purpose has always been about redeeming a people. But the modern church has reduced it to the conversion of individuals. There is a radical difference between leading one person to faith and leading a people to Faith.” – Erwin McManus
A Holy Spirit movement is evident when there is exponential growth and societal impact. Consider the Wesleys’ revival, Third World Pentecostalism, the churches in the book of Acts, and the underground church in China. The transformative message of the Good News of the Kingdom of God is meant to be extended and received in all arenas of a society, not only individually but also communally.
In Christ,
