Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered outside the gate.  Therefore, let us go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.  For we have no continuing city here, but we seek one to come.

BECAUSE YOU BELONG

From the Song, I Didn't Know, given to me in a dream early on the morning of October 24, 2003.

We do not turn from sin and come to Christ so that we may obtain a home in heaven. Rather, we repent and come to Christ because we already have a home waiting for us there. We repent because we were ordained from the foundation of the world to hear the call of Jesus and repent. It takes some of us longer than others to surrender to that call, but if you are God's, you will be called and you will come. And when you come, you will be coming home. You will not be leaving your home to come to God.

We come to Jesus because we belong to God, not because we want to belong to Him.

I Didn't Know is included on Pastor John's CD, The Way of Grace. It can be heard online at www.PastorJohnsHouse.com
