demands that we ascribe no guilt where there is no

demands that we embrace GOD’s perspective on
humankind and reject secular views. Holiness requires

we can lead and influence the world in accordance with
HIS Kingdom Agenda. This is our blessing. This is our

expects this, and has empowered us to do this!
Our Prayer is that the appeal that is set forth in this

the enemy of our souls. GOD truly demands that HIS
people stand united to combat sin in all its forms
including the “racial” strife that continues to plague. To
do this, we must lead in order to influence the culture
