True Revolutionaries of the Post Modern Era


At 7:30 pm on Dec 5 (Thursday), 2012 at the main sanctuary of Kiev UBF Bible Center, an engagement ceremony between Andrew Cuevas of LAUBF and Natasha of Kiev UBF took place. In conducting the ceremony Dr. Peter Kim made a speech which I entitle "True Revolutionaries in Post Modern Era".

Because he spoke in Russian I could not understand what he was talking about, but later as he was giving me a ride back home, I asked him about it and he expalined.  

Here is the summary:

"God's kingdom work began when The Lord God called one person Abraham. 

God's kingdom has thee components: 
1) The Lord's Sovereignty
2) Citizens
3) Lands

When there is a problem with sovereignty revolution takes place. Nowadays Ukraine goes through a turmoil. People began to stand up against the corruption of the government. At the Independence Square, revolutionaries gatered in revolt against the regime.

God's kingdom stands and thrives by and among those who live by faith in The Lord Almighty - the Soverign Ruler. In his soverign will and plan he calls his children  living by faith, builds his family, and thereby expands his territory in and through those who live by faith.

Satan, the ruler of the air, works against God's rule by seducing people to live NOT by faith but by sight. 

In the post modern era where humanists and materialists dominate, Andrew and Natasha stood up against the wicked generation. By faith in God's soverign rule, they made a decision to marry by faith, and build a  house church. 

Indeed they are true revolutionaries, revolting against the ruler of the air, sounding a trumpet call, loud and clear, the call to join the life that lives by faith in the Sovereign Lord, just as it is written: the Righteous shall live by faith from first to last. Romans 1:16-17

In his speech Dr. Peter Kim called Andrew and Natasha "Two revolutionaries". He then cheered them up by asking the congregation to celebrate the two young revolutionaries joining together building a house church for God's kingdom work!
