CHRISTIAN MEN ARE A CONQUERED PEOPLE
Jesus has conquered us, claimed us as His own and is cultivating us into His image. Jesus looks out over each and every man and says, in fact, "Mine! The earth and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein." And we are better off for being His. Because He has conquered us, He has cultivated us to our benefit.
Matthew 28:18-20
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
WE ARE THEN CALLED TO DO IN THE WORLD WHAT HE HAS DONE IN US
Jesus conquered us and cultivated us and then commands us to conquer the world and cultivate it for His glory, our neighbor's good and our personal growth.
