In every generation, the call to contend for the faith echoes as a divine mandate for believers who seek to uphold the truth of the Gospel. The early apostles, entrusted with the message of Messiah, warned of false teachings, spiritual complacency, and the erosion of foundational truths. Today, that same battle continues. This book, Contending for the Faith: According to the Authentic Apostolic Message and Kingdom Mandate, is a clarion call to return to the unshakable truths of the apostolic Gospel.

In contemporary Christianity, the words "Church" and "Ekklesia" are often used as if they mean the same thing. However, this assumption overlooks their distinct origins, meanings, and implications. These terms are not synonymous but represent two different concepts shaped by history, language, and theology. "Ekklesia," a Greek word found throughout the New Testament, refers to an assembly or gathering of people called for a purpose. It is rooted in the idea of community and mission, emphasizing the relational and participatory nature of the early Christian movement.

Eschatology, the study of the "end times" or humanity’s ultimate destiny, has captivated the minds of believers across centuries and faith traditions. Rooted in the desire to understand the culmination of history and the fulfillment of divine promises, eschatology provides profound insights into the purpose of life and the hope for what lies beyond. Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, three of the world’s most prominent monotheistic religions, each embrace eschatological frameworks that reflect their distinct theological foundations.

The concept of Kingdom advancement and dominion lies at the heart of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, serving as a framework for understanding divine authority, human responsibility, and the unfolding of history. While these monotheistic faiths share a belief in God's sovereignty and the ultimate establishment of divine rule, their interpretations of what it means to advance this Kingdom and exercise dominion vary significantly.

This book, The Third-Day Revolution, is an urgent call to awaken to the realities of this prophetic season. It is an invitation to move beyond yesterday’s understanding and step into the resurrected, glorified life that Yahweh has ordained for His people. The question is: Will we recognize the shift? Will we embrace the call?

Before the fall, Adam and Eve walked in perfect communion with Yahweh, fully aware of their identity and purpose. But after disobedience, they hid from Yahweh, signaling a loss of intimacy and a shift in their self-perception. Anxiety crept in, followed by alienation—not just from Yahweh but from their own true selves (The Authentic Man). This "spiritual amnesia" meant forgetting who they were in relation to their Creator, leading humanity into generations of identity struggles (The Fictional Man).

When we talk about placing a demand on a God-given anointing, we are speaking of an intentional act of faith—a deep expression of desire and hunger for the supernatural manifestation of Yahweh’s power. This is not about coercing or manipulating Yahweh, but about recognizing His divine provision and stepping into the realm where His power becomes active and transformative in our lives.

Throughout history, the Scriptures—comprising both of the Older and Newer Testaments—have served as a source of divine wisdom, guidance, and inspiration for countless individuals and communities. Among their many treasures are the profound announcements that echo across the ages, offering insight into Yahweh’s character, humanity’s purpose, and the unfolding of His redemptive plan. These declarations have not only shaped the spiritual lives of believers but have also profoundly influenced culture, ethics, and history.

If our oneness was not important, Yahshua would not have declared and decreed it prior to His death, burial and resurrection. If our oneness is optional then we will never be one. My question is, how can we continue to support, foster, and even celebrate our division and relational dysfunction?

In this time of acceleration many of his sons are coming into a better understanding of the fulness of time, the consummation of all things in him, and it will represent a more suitable administration than we have known.

There is a difference between the ongoing work of the apostolic/Kingdom ministry, and the Apostles doctrine. Going where we are sent includes preaching the gospel of the Kingdom, sharing our story, and doing life with the people. My concern is we have reduced the gift and grace to powerless apostolic doctrine without foundation. The full comprehensive plan of salvation includes Holy Spirit baptism, healing, and deliverance. We must be born of water and of the spirit in order to see and enter the Kingdom.

The Ekklesia is rising all across the land, and the order and government of Yahweh are challenging historically entrenched prince devils and master spirits when and wherever they can. I hear the sound of a heavenly shofar blowing. It is not a reveille or retreat. It is a call to assembly. It is a call to action. For some, it is just a curiosity. For others, it is a summons. The closer they move to the sound...the more it becomes a voice...the closer they move to the voice...the more it becomes a word.

With all of the numerous variations of Apostolic/Kingdom ministry going on, we need to narrow our view, and with focused intent clearly define what it means to be truly apostolic. If we continue to pursue religion-based fellowship and relationship in the same old conventional ways, we too will go by way of the dinosaur. We may as well try to prepare for the next extinction-level event.

This generation seems to be ever-learning but never able to come to the saving knowledge of the truth. They continue to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, in search for truth that will lead to super-human powers, immortality, and ascension. These have become major topics of interest. Recent discoveries and further disclosure have led many to depart from formerly held views concerning the creation story and origin of man.

This topic is dear to my heart and one that needs further clarification. The quote, “Ordained covenantal relationship, marriage, and family are the same in the Spirit", took me some time to process and understand what the Spirit was saying. The reality that it is the only relationship that has the ability to reproduce after a Yahweh kind took even longer to unpack. Holy Spirit has been speaking to me about the importance of developing new relationships while enjoying the safety and security of lifelong friendships.

There is a divine mystery - a secret surprise that has been concealed from the world for generations, but now it’s being revealed, unfolded and manifested for every holy believer to experience. Living within you is the Christ who floods you with the expectation of glory! This mystery of Christ, embedded within us, becomes a heavenly treasure chest of hope filled with the riches of glory for his people, and God wants everyone to know it! Christ is our message! We preach to awaken hearts and bring every person into the full understanding of truth.

It is not my intention to address every teaching with which I take issue. However, it is my intention to clearly state my position concerning one particular false teaching that has been reintroduced to the Ekklesia in recent years. It is primarily responsible for opening the door to further deception and delusion on our watch. The following doctrine has been relabeled and packaged in a way that is currently spreading through Western Christendom like a virus.

True authentic apostles and prophets have been tasked with the responsibility of addressing crippling mindsets that serve to hinder and limit our personal and corporate growth and development. I am talking about deeply-held-to teachings and views that are contrary to what the Spirit is saying to the Ekklesia. Some of them have no biblical precedent, and others are based on the doctrines of devils and men. These mindsets, keep us detached from one another and displaced in the ongoing work of apostolic ministry.

Do not hold too firmly to what you presently believe to be true, because further enlightenment and illumination will cause the landscape to look very different. If you are a lover of the truth, you will never be satisfied with being told what to believe....

It has been suggested that the universe is still growing at the speed of light, as it is infinite. I believe that it would be safe to say that as long as there is light in the world, that darkness will never again cover the earth. Light = Illumination and Enlightenment, and the only reason there is any darkness at all is because the first-man Adam chose to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Light in relationship to creation was called Day.
