Ecclesia: the Church universal and through all time composed of those called out by the Lord. Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, "'I will build my 'Ekklesia'."


In Matthew 6:5-15 every time the word "Pray" is used it literally means: to interact with the Lord by switching human wishes (ideas) for His wishes as He imparts faith ("divine persuasion").

There is another shell of sanctimony broken by our experience in Communion. "Death to the Sanctuary" means death to our efforts, our faith, our righteousness, our prayers, our knowledge, our understanding of things or ability to 'merit' anything available in his grace! We pray for something to happen. We sing and worship with a great worship band to somehow merit the reward of God's presence. We study the Bible to somehow think that we can attain or apprehend the truth of scripture. We turn over spiritual leadership to the broken and frail who have "been Christians longer than us", "who have many more books, diplomas or credibility of fan-ship" or who "appear to be more gifted" or "more called" than each of us are. Using themes of giving, prayer, fasting, treasures and worry as topics in The Sermon on the Mount, Jesus gives us a "Kingdom Come" perspective. 

Taking prayer for example: Let's have a CommunionFire look at "The Lord's Prayer" or "The Our Father" (So named by publishers and editors over the centuries).

"The Lord's Prayer"  (See CommunionFire Blog Notes "On Earth As In Heaven" for full details)

Like Communion we never dared look into it further. Talk about this, study it and pray about it... "The Our Father" as mighty and beautiful as it is on its own merit was never meant to be an isolated prayer standing on its own until Jesus comes back. (I routinely have prayed this every night before going to sleep since I was a child.) However, it was shared by the Lord as part of His message in "The Sermon on the Mount" in keeping with the Beatitudes. He was providing insight about the Kingdom of God, Jesus is indicating that prayer is a matter of being in His presence. When we are, He shares with us. He is there to share His life, love, peace, joy, healing and provision of every sort. Prayer by the following description by Jesus is when we look to Him and listen to what He has to share with us.

KEY: Give us this day our daily bread or day to day bread [Before sharing on this topic Jesus says, "I already know what you need before you ask so don't act all 'public' about it when you "ask me for something" as though your request reminds God what He should be doing! The first phrase Give us this day: means 'today's date' (as if give us this day, right now, where we are as we are for who we are) our "daily" or "day to day" bread. This is the only place in all of scripture "Day to Day" is used (Matthew 6:11 and Luke 11:3). 'daily bread' has to do with a location not food. It is the place where we feed on His presence. It is the Table of the Lord where we feed on the 'eternal bread of life that never goes stale and keeps feeding us forever. (As if) Today Lord, let us feast on "Daily" or "Day to Day" living bread. It literally means 'a defined area' or locale  where He tells His story - or 'the dwelling of telling'. (Christ in you the hope of glory) - where 'we behold Him as in a mirror and when we behold His glory we are changed into that same image from glory to glory'. 

We are His sanctuary and where two or more are gathered in His name He is in the midst. He is building us together as His dwelling. "I will dwell in the House of the Lord" is speaking of being in His presence. It also means "our heavenly subsistence for the coming day".  Jesus says when we eat His flesh and drink His blood it is real food. He also says that when we do this in remembrance of Him we have His life inside us. He wants to share His life with us and when He does we feed on what He gives us for days, weeks and months to come. It is food that feeds us and never grows stale. When we feast on His presence it is where He makes His story real to us personally. Thus, "Give us Lord today, our daily (Communion) our sustenance, as we feed upon your presence (CommunionFire)."]

So His love comes to us. It transforms us and He fits us together as a house that declares His praise and others see His glory in our lives.

    This was a Campus Crusader who wanted Early Church authenticity - I was called into the ministry under the street preaching of this wonderful Man of God in Berkeley, CA in 1971. He was a founder of God's Love household for Street Christians, the publisher of the Jesus People's Movement called "Right On" and through an amazing series of transformations throughout his ministry He was a founder of The University of Orthodox Theology (now called St. Athanasius Academy of Orthodox Theology) and oversaw the creation of The Orthodox Study Bible before the Lord moved him to his new address in heaven. Thanks Fr. Jack N. Sparks, Ph.D The Witness of Jack and his estimed Associates from Grace Haven Farms, New Covenant Apostolic Order, The Evangelical Orthodox Churches and theis eventual assimilation into the Antiochian Orthodox Church of America is truely one of the Great Church Histories of the 20th and 21st Century.

    Luke 3:16 "He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and fire."  Ask Jesus to baptize you in the Holy Spirit and fire today.
    Another significant influence in my life is the life and ministry of Winkey Pratney. His lifelong commitment to the study and application of Revival as both an apologist and polemicist raised the bar for me and he accomplished what I only dreamed - to Produce the Revival Study Bible. He has also been an intrinsic Man of God from the days of the Jesus People Movement and a part of my experience as a visiting teacher at Christ for the Nations in Dallas in 1975 and one of the principles in Y.W.A.M. Youth With A Mission that has had a direct impact on my sister, daughters, nephews and grandchildren. Thanks Brother Winkey for the legacy you have deposited into my life and the life of so many others.
