5 Things that are different about Christianity than any other religion
1. Covenant
- The grid for God's operation is not the church, it's society.
- God said Abraham would be the father of many nations, which means he is about all peoples.
- We're called to transform the world, not to put on a show.
- It's a whole lot easier to do a Sunday event than to start a church that changes the world.
2. The Cross
- Reconciles all things.
- Christ is for all nations.
3. The Commission
- Focus on Jesus--the disciple and the church emerge.
- Christianity is the first church to ever shift ethnicity (but didn't abandon Jews).
4. Community
- Christianity started as a Jewish movement, it will end as a Muslim movement.
5. Connectedness
- We've never been able to engage the world like we can today.
