In this message we spend some time considering the hallmarks of Biblical leadership, from the pattern set by Jesus before entrusting His continued work to His disciples (Mt 28:18-20). We also explore the gifts He gave from His ministry, when His returned to the Father (Eph 4:7-16), to equip all of us in the body of Christ to grow up into all we’re called to be, so that His body ‘builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.’
In this message we consider three important aspects of being Heavenly People (1 Co 15:48-49). Through His death and resurrection Christ has led us back into a trusting relationship with the Father, enabling us to live in the blessings of being under God’s arrangement. The Seed of Christ is now within us, transforming us from the inside out, from one degree of glory to another until the final transformation of our bodies at His return. And lastly, through Jesus, the last Adam, we’re no longer just living beings, but now life-giving spirits. As Heavenly People we’re able to reach down from the heavenlies to lift up the lost, with the life and power of His resurrection life within us.

In 1 Corinthians 15 we see that Jesus’ resurrection changes everything. It has revolutionised history, revolutionises hope and the Good News is that the revolution is here, we can live in the good of it today!
As we reach the end of this great epistle, the apostle Paul devotes himself to explaining the nature of the resurrection and showing us that it’s the very foundation or grounds of our faith – for without the resurrection there is no forgiveness, no salvation and no future hope. Moreover, he explains that Christ’s resurrection was the first of many, with the promise of life after death for all who are in Christ! In this message we explore these things in a bit more detail and consider how we can live in resurrection power today!…
The thought of sharing our faith with family, friends and others can feel a little unsettling at times. Ian Jones encourages us to relax and trust the Holy Spirit to reveal Jesus to them and to realise that our role is to partner with Him by sharing our lives, our testimony and the Scriptures with those He is drawing. He is the Senior Partner! John 15:26,27
