Life isn’t always easy
However God gives us the Kingdom of Heaven wherever we are
He will show us how to survive wherever we are—
He will give us HIS HOLY SPIRIT
He will be there with us

Antioch was the third largest city in the Roman Empire
It was a place of infectious disease—
Sickness was highly visible on the streets
The city was filled with misery, danger, fear etc
The averaged family lived in a crowded and filthy environment—
Half of the children died at birth or during childhood
Many children lost one parent before reaching maturity
Antioch was a place of depression
However God sent HIS KINGDOM to that place
In order to show HIS ETERNAL GRACE—
Jesus brought a new culture (of Heaven) and
His WAYS would allow individuals to
Live in tough conditions with the Kingdom of God—
The Community of Jesus Christ (His Ecclesia) will
Bring joy, hope, and a sense of family and above
All many will receive the HOLY SPIRIT

There are many places in the world
That represents Antioch in the 21st century—
Today God is also sending many to go and take
His Kingdom and to the most unlikely places—
Let us do that because God will not forget them...


Life isn’t always easy
However God gives us the Kingdom of Heaven wherever we are
He will show us how to survive wherever we are—
He will give us HIS HOLY SPIRIT
He will be there with us
