    Kingdom Stewards

    👑Kingdom Stewards👑 Faithfulness: the missing ingredient.  "It is required in stewards that a man be found faithful."  Somewhere along the way, spiritual adultery stopped being called sin.  It got rebranded. "That's just how it is." "Separation of church and state." "Staying relevant." In large part, spiritual adultery has replaced Christian faithfulness in much of the modern church, and many believers don't even see it happening.  It trains Christians out of the will of God.  It talks them out of obeying Him.  ➡️ It makes them feel perfectly okay compromising with the culture of a fallen world. James chapter 4 called it what it is: spiritual adultery, loving the world while claiming loyalty to God.  A large part of the modern church calls it wisdom and we are seeing the consequences of this in real time today.   This is the battle we face today, and why so many Christians are fighting Christ in the public square instead of standing for Him. ⬅️ Faithfulness has always meant pushing back. Faithfulness has always meant standing for God's purpose: His plan, His word, His will, His way. And faithfulness has never been about pleading with an angry God to act.  The mindset of receiving by faith what God has already provided by grace must come back to the church. We are not pleading.  We are receiving what He has already given us in Jesus Christ. Because the Christians who came before us were faithful kingdom stewards, they wove the principles of Christ into our culture, laws, and worldview in a way that pointed future generations to Jesus. They were right.  ➡️ And it's a lack of Christian faithfulness that is allowing those things to be ripped out today. We are getting back to true biblical faithfulness. But this is not achieved through willpower, but by leaning into the power of the Holy Spirit.   We are getting back to Kingdom stewardship. We must be Christians who not only say that Jesus Christ is Lord of all, but then we live like it.

    The Cause of Christ

    The Cause of Christ We are designed to follow a cause, not just live a life of quiet devotion.  The early church carried a weight most modern believers have never felt: a sense of moral obligation. They could not walk away.  They could not stand by and watch the vulnerable go abused, the helpless go un-helped. Faith was never private for them.  Faith was a cause, the cause of Christ. That cause changed governments. It changed unjust laws. It dismantled the traditions of demon worship across entire continents. It worked because the church refused to separate the Lordship of Jesus from the Kingship of Christ.  Modern Christianity is comfortable saying "Jesus is Lord." It grows uneasy the moment someone says "Christ is King," because King demands territory, not just devotion. Jesus didn't send His church out with a suggestion. He declared total authority first, then commissioned. The gospel was never just an offer of forgiveness. It was, and is, a declaration of who rules. If you have never felt the weight of that cause, you are not alone, and you are not without a way back.  This teaching is a call to feel it. To stop trading the mission for entertainment. To stop letting apathy hand ground back to the enemy while everyone else organizes for theirs.  To pick back up disciplined strength, real boundaries, and the courage the early church walked in. The mission has not changed. It is time to obey it. Christ is King. Live like it.

    World Changing Christianity

    🌎World Changing Christianity🌍 Can you look at your children or your grandchildren and honestly say that you are living a life, and supporting ministries, that will make the world a better place for them and for the future? Many believers cannot.  Many know that their church, their pastor, their denomination will never stand for righteousness in the public square, will never push back against this increasingly evil culture. In this teaching, I cover four principles that made the early church unstoppable, principles that must be brought back to our generation. Scripture warns that it is possible to receive the grace of God in vain. It is not only returning to the works of the law for salvation after being saved by grace through faith, though that is a major part of it. In context, Paul is addressing something deeper: an unwillingness to suffer for righteousness' sake. To show our purpose on this earth, Paul quotes Isaiah 49:8 which goes on to say, "say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places."  This shows our role in this new covenant.  We have the honor of telling the captives they are free, and of calling the wicked to be revealed, because everything has been made known to us. Every believer will stand before Jesus Christ one day and give an account, and it is because we understand this that we persuade men to turn to Christ and are willing to give our lives for the gospel. This is what the early church understood.  They lived as the temple of the living God, not as people who simply knew the theology but as people whose lives proved it.  That truth has to stop being something we merely know and become the life we actually live. When it does, it becomes effective again, the way it was for the early church, and it is this same world-changing power the modern church is reawakening to. #ChristIsKingLiveLikeIt #CiKM

    Occupy Till He Comes

    Occupy Till He Comes We don't have to tolerate the decline. Many Christians have been taught to expect a Great Falling Away and simply brace for it, as if surrender is the only faithful response left. But Scripture never asks us to accept decline as our inheritance. It calls us to stand. Yes, Paul warns in 2 Timothy 3 that perilous times are coming, that people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, holding a form of godliness while denying its power. But he never says that outcome is guaranteed for you.  He even points back to Jannes and Jambres, the sorcerers who stood against Moses in Egypt, and reminds us how that ended: their folly was made plain to everyone, and their opposition did not prevail. The example is not a warning to brace for defeat. It is a promise that obedience outlasts opposition. History bears this out on a national scale. Nations that were once warriors for the faith, once prosperous and blessed because of Christianity, have fallen into desolation precisely where they lost their working understanding of what the church was called to be and do. Prosperity did not protect them. Only obedience does. We have to make sure that does not happen on our watch, in our generation. In this teaching, working through Psalm 110, we look at what it means to actually operate in verses 1 through 4, the reign, the rule, the willing army rising in the day of God's power, the priesthood that never ends, while leaving verses 5 and 6 where they belong: in God's timing, not ours. At any time, in any generation, in any place, the choice is the same. Submit yourself fully to God, then actively resist the devil, and he will flee from you. This is not a call to panic about the end. It is a call to occupy until He comes, to be what Jesus Christ ordained us to be in the earth right now, in this generation, without waiting for permission or bracing for defeat. The falling away does not have to happen on our watch. Keep obeying God, keep walking in what He has called you to do, and let folly expose itself. Christ Is King.

    Advancing the Kingdom

    Advancing the Kingdom God designed the church to operate in three aspects. The hospital, the family, and the army. Every Christian understands the church as a hospital, a place for the broken to be saved, healed, and delivered. Most understand the church as a family too, somewhere to be born into, supported, loved, helped. But many modern Christians cannot reconcile the third aspect. That the church is an army, advancing the Kingdom of God in the earth. The early church understood this in a way we have lost. And that loss is losing nations today. Because Christians don't see the army, they have no need for the whole armor of God. They have no desire to stand like a good soldier for Christ. They don't understand their mission in the earth. The Christians who came before us toppled empires and won entire continents to Jesus Christ. Modern Christians can fill big buildings in growing cities, with rising numbers of believers across whole nations, and still hand that same city and that same nation over to the enemy without a fight. The reality is many communities, cities, and even entire states in America, and certain nations across the world, went from 80 to 90 percent professing Christian, with relative safety and prosperity, to what we see today.  The answer isn't the percentage of believers. It's the theology they were handed. Somewhere along the way, sincere Christians were taught, without anyone saying it out loud, that Jesus Christ has no authority over government, law, culture, or public life.  That King Jesus only rules hearts, not lives or nations. That is not what the church has believed for two thousand years. The believers who took the gospel into a hostile pagan empire, who ended infanticide, who broke slavery again and again, did not believe Christ's authority stopped at the church door.  Go back and read the actual accounts. Missionaries walked into cannibalism, child sacrifice, child marriage, and demon worship, and they said something almost nobody says today: "We love you but you cannot continue."  Not forced conversion. Not a sword to the throat.  ➡️ The gospel doing what the gospel has always done, protecting the weak and confronting evil, while still leaving every man free to bow his own knee to Christ, or not. Here's what we've lost. The believers of old didn't just ask how many got saved. They asked what people were required to leave behind.  They didn't stop at addition. They demanded transformation. We've traded that for a service on Sunday and called it ministry, when the service was only ever meant to equip the saints to go be sent, like the seventy in Luke 10, out to actually confront what's devouring our own age. The percentage of professing believers was never the real measure of a healthy church. The fruit was.  Preach it freely. Force no one. But never again let the King's name be used over a people while His authority is quietly kept out of everything that actually governs them. Christ Is King.

    Christ Is King

    👑Christ Is King👑 Christ is king - live like it. Believers with no money, no platform, and no army toppled empires and rewrote the moral order of the world. Today the church has more Christians, more resources, and more platforms than any generation in history, and in nation after nation, Christians are losing the ability to impact the world around them for the glory of God. Many don't see how they are to stop decay. Many can't understand how to drive out darkness. And in places with large numbers of Christians who stay disengaged from the public square and from politics, you end up with persecution and unjust laws instead. Ask yourself why. It is not a numbers problem. ➡️ It is a forgotten truth, and it changes everything once you see it. In this message, the one key, the one missing link.  The one understanding that, when learned, brings that authority and power back to the church, and answers questions believers have wrestled with for years: the authority that was given to man at creation, lost to satan at the fall, and won back by Jesus Christ at the cross and the resurrection.  Why it must be Jesus, why we pray in His name, why sin gives ground but never takes back everything, and why this is the piece the modern church has largely lost. This is the key that turned a handful of believers into a movement that changed the world, and it's the same key that will do it again. Christ Is King. Live Like It. #ChristIsKingLiveLikeIt #CiKM

    Kingdom Politics

    Kingdom Politics: This is a genuinely life changing message that every believer needs to hear. Identity without action is unbelieved theology. Most Christians know the enemy is defeated. Most know he has no legal claim to the ground he holds. And most still will not evict him, because knowing the truth and acting on it are not the same thing. In this message Robbie Patterson breaks down spiritual adverse possession, how Satan occupies territory in our lives, our families, our schools, our government, and our public square, not because he has power there, but because the church has found it easier to tolerate him than to remove him. The word politics comes from the Greek polis, meaning "pertaining to the city." Christians have been lied to about that word. We have been told, and have believed, that the public square is neutral ground, a space where Jesus Christ has no authority or dominion. That neutral ground has never existed in this fallen world. You have been sent into it as an ambassador, a minister of reconciliation, salt to preserve what is decaying and light to cast out what is dark. We look at why so many believers understand this and still choose not to act, and why that inaction has a cost far bigger than most of us realize. The Christians who actually changed the world for Christ, and built a nation on it, did not stop at personal salvation. They brought the Word of God into education, government, politics, and the public square. That is the template we have walked away from. We are blessed in America because the generations before us understood that Jesus Christ is Lord over every sphere of life, not just the church building. Look around the world today. There are nations with hundreds of thousands of professing Christians who have zero lasting influence, because they were never taught that their faith had anything to do with politics or the public square. When the church disengages, the enemy does not leave the space empty. He fills it, he persecutes, he displaces, and eventually he makes Christianity illegal. That is not hypothetical. It is the current reality in dozens of countries with large Christian populations who never engaged. This is a call to stop separating personal faith from public responsibility, to recognize the ground the enemy has taken by default, and to reign now the way Scripture actually calls us to. Scripture referenced: Romans 5:17, Galatians 1:10, 2 Corinthians 5:10, Colossians 2:15, Ephesians 4:27, Ephesians 2:6, Philippians 3:10, Ephesians 1:19-20, Colossians 3:2, Matthew 6:10, James 4:17, James 4:7, 2 Corinthians 10:5, James 5:16, Ephesians 6:13.

    Kingdom Saints

    Kingdom Saints Daniel saw it first. Daniel 7:13-14: "I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven... and there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him." Then verse 18: "the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever." That's not a passive inheritance. It's a taking. Here's where many believers get it wrong. They read that and push it all into the future, waiting on the return of Christ to make any of it real. But the New Testament will not let us do that. When Jesus opens His ministry saying "the kingdom of God is at hand" (Mark 1:15), and after the resurrection says "all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth" (Matthew 28:18), He is declaring that Daniel 7 has already happened. The kingdom is not something we're forcing into existence by pushing for His return. It's available now. Dominion has already been handed over. So what do we do with a kingdom that's already here? The epistles answer that question, letter after letter, telling the church how to actually operate in it. 2 Corinthians 5 is one of the clearest examples. Verse 10, Paul starts with the weight of it: we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ, to receive for the things done in this body. Then who we are now. If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. Old things are passed away. All things are become new. And all things are of God. Then verse 19, the part many skip past too fast. God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them. And He has committed unto us that same word of reconciliation. God did the reconciling in Christ. Now He's handed us the message of it. That's why verse 20 lands the way it does. We are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us. By chapter 6, verse 1, the assignment gets sharper still. We are workers together with Him. And Paul adds a warning most believers never sit with: that we not receive the grace of God in vain. Many have received it without ever letting it produce power in their lives. Here's the blind spot that follows from all of this. Ask any room full of Christians to describe Jesus, and they'll give you the suffering Savior of the four Gospels. Beaten. Rejected. Crucified. That picture is true, and it matters. But the rest of Scripture reveals another Christ many never look for: the victorious Christ, reigning, ruling, and building a kingdom that cannot be shaken. If all you see is the cross, you've stopped reading too soon. The saints of the Most High taking the kingdom is not a future event. It's a job description for now. This is our time to gain reward in Heaven while we bless people on earth. We don't have to sit back and accept the moral degradation and cultural collapse happening around us like it's inevitable. Jesus Christ called us, and commissioned us, to be the element of change in this world. We are the church. And the church should look like the seventy in Luke 10. They went out, they did the work, and they came back to Christ rejoicing over what they'd seen Him do. Then He gave them more. More instruction. More revelation about the kingdom. That's the pattern. Go out, come back rejoicing, receive more. Every time. Christ Is King. Live Like It. #ChristIsKingLiveLikeIt #CiKM
