We have been doing an in depth investigation into the Radical Jesus for over seven months and this will be our last week studying the section on radical faith. One of the primary points of today’s lesson is to help us understand the necessity of returning to the roots of our faith that was seen in the primitive church of the first century. God is a miracle working God and He is waiting for people to rise up to the great need of the hour which is for the saints to operate through great faith. The need is great so the remedy must be greater. A tame Christianity will not capture the heart and mind of the world. We need a signs and wonders, New Testament faith. Then the world will take note and learn that there is a God and that His name is Jesus.

We will then look at the great need in our day for the people of God to arise to the desperate need of the hour to live out lives of great faith. Whenever the church lives by great faith the world takes notice. God is a miracle working God that still does miracles today. Will we be the people He can do miracles through? Will we live out the radical nature of true faith or will we let Jesus pass us by?

I will pick up where we left off last week to delve deeper in the correlation between God’s omniscience and compassion. You will be enlightened.
