Restoration History

This teaching stream will explore Restoration History.

Because God’s purpose is to restore the cosmos, he will first restore his church. Tragically within the first several centuries the church fell from its high destiny, particularly through its Constantinian settlement. Nonetheless, God's work of re-formation and restoration began, accelerating through the Reformation of the 16th century and progressessing through various moves of God.

The Strategic Battle Of Our Time

The Strategic Battle Of Our Time

“Though we be active in the battle, if we are not fighting where the battle is the hottest, we are traitors to the cause.” — Martin Luther As we negotiate 2022, travelling deeper into the third decade of the 21st century, it is imperative that we discern where the battle of our time lies. Majoring on minors As a master strategist, his satanic majesty desires nothing … [Read more...]

The Hinge of a New Age: Preparing the Way for Global Revival

The Hinge of a New Age: Preparing the Way for Global Revival

Marriage is a physical symbol of a spiritual reality. The apostle uses the same analogy when addressing the church in the city of Corinth: I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. 2 Corinthians 11:2 God’s Nature Demonstrated through Marriage The Bible, therefore, treats very … [Read more...]

The West in the Valley of Decision

The West in the Valley of Decision

Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God’s kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off. Romans 11:22 Like apostate Israel, God has given the West “a spirit of stupor” so that she has not seen nor heard (Rom. 11:8). Still reeling from the carnage of the twentieth century – … [Read more...]

A Reformation To Laud, Lament, Or To Long For?

A Reformation To Laud, Lament, Or To Long For?

The 500th Anniversary of the Reformation. This October 31 marks the 500th anniversary of the Reformation when Martin Luther, to protest the selling of "indulgences", nailed his 95 theses to the church door of Wittenberg. Little did he know that "one small step for man, would be one giant leap for mankind". It triggered a spiritual and cultural revolution that reshaped … [Read more...]

Christianity in Crisis: A Personal Journey

Christianity in Crisis: A Personal Journey

Every good business does a stocktake towards the end of the financial year to ascertain their position. We have been doing the same, except our stock is not physical product—it’s the spiritual riches that God has entrusted to us. After more than 45 years of Christian experience and service we find ourselves reviewing and evaluating, not only our personal journey, but also the … [Read more...]

The Message

21st century Western man is now living in the moral debris of the 20th century experiment—the experiment of messianic statism – Marxist, Fascist, and now secular Humanist – with its rejection of God in Christ as the genius of the Western cultural heritage. Spiritually, morally, and financially bankrupt the West has now exhausted its options. 

Our message despite the historic failure of humanity, including the church, is one of certainty and hope. God has a purpose for history and for nations—for their governance, prosperity, and peace. God’s plan for the planet is more than adequate for its crisis. Lifemessenger is committed to speaking a prophetically pertinent word to church and culture.
