WELCOME TO SENATOR WORLD

Are You Being Transformed? “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” (Romans 12:2 NIV) God is in the life changing business. He wants to transform us into being more Christlike in all areas of our life. The first step occurs when we place our faith and trust in Christ alone to be our personal Lord and Savior. This is a huge step of faith for us to take. All other religions have people attempt to reach God through works of self-effort, trusting in themselves rather than trusting in the person of Jesus Christ alone to save them. Only the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin. In KingdomNomics, we learn to exercise the same faith when it comes to living the Christian life. Only Christ can live it through us, because we do not have that power in and of ourselves to live it. The experience of this life is a process beginning with t...

Concentrate on Eternity His disciples remembered that it is written, “Zeal for your house will consume me.” (John 2:17)  All of our time, talent, and treasure are temporary as far as this world is concerned; however, what we do with them while we are here will have eternal ramifications. Do we even care? The word “zeal” used by John indicates enthusiasm and passion. How much passion do you have for the things of God? Jesus Christ was consumed with doing his Father’s will while he was in this world. He knew his time here on earth was short. He ensured that all the work that had been given to him was finished by the time he returned to heaven. So, again, what are you doing with your time, talent, and treasure? Are you wasting them on the temporal, disregarding the eternal reality we all are facing, or are you fixing your eyes on the eternal aspects of life? Are you concentrating on the things that God wants you to do? We have the option of laboring for those things t...

Live for Eternal Significance “Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.” (1 Timothy 6:18-19) True faith involves both knowledge and conviction. We firstknow about God’s saving grace and then we act on that knowledge. Conviction moves us to act. Doing good, being generous, and being willing to share are the fruits of true faith. They are an outgrowth of the seed of faith, just as an ear of corn is the outgrowth of a kernel of corn planted in the soil. Our conviction moves us to do the good works that God has planned ahead for us to do as we walk on the path of faith. As God transforms us by the renewing of our minds, we will find ourselves transformed from being “getters” to becoming givers. As we become givers we will be progressively more concerned with fulfilling kingdom o...

Depend on the Power of the Cross “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:18) Understanding the power of the cross is instrumental in our understanding of the concepts of KingdomNomics. It is by the cross that we are crucified to the world and have new life in Jesus Christ. Paul boasted about the cross in his own life with regard to his relationship to the world and the passions of the flesh. He was dead to them by the power of the cross. The same can be said of us when we apply the power of the cross to our own lives. God’s power overcame Jesus’ death on the cross! And it is the power of the cross that gives us new hope and new perspective for living. Through the power of the cross, we are able to overcome the giants of consumerism and greed. They relentlessly pursue us to keep us from giving to the work of God. It is the power of the cross that enables us to overcome these g...
