Sons To Glory
retreat lodging (quite a miracle for preachers!). Although these pastors
were all from different denominations and backgrounds, they found
common ground with this movie, and it helped their focus for the
remainder of the retreat.
Here is a movie produced by one of the greatest stars in Hollywood that
may do more to promote the sacrificial character of Jesus than hundreds
of church institutions combined. I believe this type of breakthrough
will start happening in other fields of service like business, science,
education, government, etc. The Church was never meant to be an
institution, but rather a living example of Jesus on the earth during
every day life -- The kingdom of God is much bigger than the
church! Life is really about relationships: first with our creator God
and then with one another. Deep and lasting “father/son” type
relationships will become the backbone of this apostolic revolution.
Jesus is the Chief “Apostle” which simply means a “sent one,” and so
His life and death is the example for all apostles. In the New
Testament, Paul was also a great example of the gift of an apostle and
he wrote, “I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus
Christ and Him crucified” (1 Cor. 2:2). That is what I saw in this
movie – Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Jesus died to “self” every day
of His life and not just at the cross. Likewise, the apostle Paul wrote,
“I die daily” (1Cor. 15:31). This same heart attitude is resident and
readily apparent in all true apostles. When discerning true apostles, this
type of humble character is more important than gifting or miracle
working, and even Jesus refused to perform a sign when religious
people required it from Him.
It was truly Jesus’ Passion to endure the cross with the longer term
vision of a harvest of souls for the Kingdom of God. Likewise, all
future true apostles of the Lamb will have this same gentle, humble
attitude of laying down their lives for the sake of others. This was the
message of the Cross and the obvious focus of this movie. I pray that
this movie will wake up a slumbering generation to take up their
crosses and follow Jesus.
