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.

Today’s podcast will stir your heart, mind and soul. We are continuing our series on the Radical Jesus and have been for the last two weeks studying the radical nature of truth. I will close out this section on the radical truth by looking at its revolutionary nature. The truth is not revolutionary in the way that the world defines revolution as a violent means of overthrowing a government. The truth is revolutionary to the spiritual, moral and intellectual life of an individual or people. It transforms the person that in turn becomes an agent of change in the world. Its time for you to have a spiritual revolution.
