ENCOUNTER: The lives of two followers
of Christ from Emmaus were changed forever as they
encountered Him after the resurrection. Jesus met them,
taught them the Scriptures, and opened their eyes to
recognize who He was. They testified that their hearts
were “burning within” them as He “spoke” to them and
“opened” the scriptures. That day began a lifelong
journey for them to know experientially and intimately
the One who not only rose from the grave, but who is “
the
Resurrection and the Life.”
EXPEREINCE: The purpose of this
conference is to have a living encounter with the One
who is LIFE. As we experience such an encounter, He will
open our own understanding to knowing Him experientially
and intimately. This life is described in the New
Testament as the Abundant life (John 10:10), the Abiding
life (John 15), and many other descriptions. The very
life of God is available to us through Jesus and His
cross.
TESTIMONY: Dr. Billy Graham speaks of
this message and ministry in the foreword of the book,
Not I, but Christ. "The Cross of Christ is the
foundation of our lives as Believers, for God's plan was
that through the cross our old nature would be
crucified, and the power of the Holy Spirit would be
unleashed to change hearts and lives.” He further states
that the message of the Cross is “Biblical, balanced and
practical.” It is “a message sorely needed in our
time.”
