Transforming Power Statements:
1) Since the being and essence of God is immeasurably most unsearchable by any human mind, or means apart from God’s intervention, there are also an immeasurable number of things in the creation as well as in the Word, of which we could never comprehend without divine revelation by God, therefore, many are the things that are hidden in the house of God.
2) Everything from salvation to glorification are made available to all sinners who repent and believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ and has been accomplished and paid for in full through the predetermined counsel of the God-head by the shed blood of Jesus The Christ of God, Who alone is the propitiation for all sin to everyone who trust in Him alone.
3) The world the flesh and the devil work against the believer to hinder progress, and to cover and deny insight and applications of God’s revelations for the advancement of His Kingdom on Earth, thus amplifying the need for ministry to one another and through the oversight of pastors gifted to exhort and encourage believers as the journey continues into all the world.
