The "Adam gene" is a concept often associated with the Y-chromosomal Adam, which is the most recent common ancestor from whom all currently living humans are directly descended patrilineally. This term comes from the biblical figure Adam and refers to the male counterpart to the mitochondrial Eve, the most recent common matrilineal ancestor. Y-chromosomal Adam lived thousands of years ago and is estimated based on genetic analysis.

The message of this audiobook speaks of the heart and attitude of a true son as it pertains to honoring the Father’s heart through real and living relationships. It is about loving one another and honoring the Father’s heart in others as well. It is also about fulfilling His practical will and purpose for our lives and thereby glorifying His name in all we say and do.

While we have a number of elder brothers and friends who may speak into our lives at some level, we do not have many spiritual fathers who watch for our souls. There are those among us that believe we can only have one spiritual father at a time, while there are others who believe that we can only have one spiritual father in our lifetime. Spiritual fathers are emissaries who have been sent to represent the way of the Father’s heart to us. They provide oversight and may be directly or indirectly responsible for us being birthed into the Kingdom.

The religion of Christianity is no different than any other benevolent religion unless it involves translation, transformation, and transfiguration (where there is no translation, transformation and transfiguration, there is no true salvation). Salvation includes redemption and forgiveness. Being born again of the water and the spirit grants us entrance into the kingdom where we live, move, and have our being as a part of His New Creation Reality. We were saved, we are being saved, and we will continue to be saved.

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.

Our true identity can only be discovered through a real and living relationship with Messiah Yahshua and one another. He is the pattern son and the express image of Yahweh.

The house that Yahshua is building is a man. We are the people and nation of Yahweh! We are the house and family of Yahweh! We are the Ekklesia and Kingdom of Yahweh! The corporate son is the living expression of the person of Messiah to this generation. The house that Yahshua is building is his Father’s house. Yahshua said, “In my Father’s house are many dwelling places.” He also said, my Father’s House shall be a house of prayer for all nations.”

These are watershed and benchmark moments in both the Ekklesia and Kingdom. The question is, will we continue to foster and support what we know is not working that well, or will we leave the security of safe harbors in order to navigate uncharted waters?

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.

Kingdom Economy is about recognizing the true human resources that pass through our lives and worlds. It is also about developing real and living relationships with other life-minded people of destiny. The power of agreement is worth more than gold, silver, or any tangible substance known to man, and while it is important to embrace our common differences, it is equally important to celebrate our various parts and contributions. Simply put, we need one another in life, ministry, and business, and we need to get used to the idea of working together here and now.

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.

We are engaged in the conflict of the ages and for the first time in this generation, the sons of the Kingdom are awakening to the reality that the Kingdom has, is, and will continue to come.

If you are still serving and promoting an angry, vengeful, and vindictive God, then you may want to take another look at the price of redemption. Yahweh the Father sent Yahshua His son to show us the way back home, and then fulfilled every promise He made concerning His return on the Day of Pentecost. Selah!

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.

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?

David was not allowed to build the temple, but Yahweh told him that he would build a house for him. David was a man of war and had blood on his hands, so he was not qualified to build the temple. Solomon was allowed to build the temple and the house of David, but he was warned about keeping his heart right and being a man of integrity like his father before him. Neither of them was qualified to build the Father's house because that responsibility was reserved for Yahshua the Messiah.

The topic of spiritual growth and development has been broadly spoken to in many essays, articles, and books. However, I would like to speak more directly to the four phases of my life and journey with the Sovereign. The first phase was all about me. The second phase was all about me and Him. The third phase was about Him and me, and the fourth phase has and is all about Him.

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.

Coming into a better understanding of who we are in God will open the way for us to receive our inheritance as sons of the Kingdom. Everything that we are in him is wrapped up in discovery. Only the father knows what he has prepared for each of his sons; and while we are called to the same purpose, we very well may have different assignments.

The term covenant is normally used when referring to the older and newer testaments of the Bible (the Scripture). It is most commonly used when referring to a legal contract or binding agreement between two or more people. That being said, it is more about Yahweh’s promise of blessing and favor to those who remember his covenant and keep his commandments to do them. Remembering His Covenant is about living and walking in and by Holy Spirit and being ever mindful of the blessing and his favor and way.
