The task of the people of God is to proclaim the kingdom of God, which is a universal kingdom extending to every aspect of human life. In a secular society, religion cannot remain a department of life. It must be the expression of a faith that extends over the whole of life, or it will be nothing.

The state puts a lot of mandates on the town, not just for education, ... Our infrastructure is deteriorating because those costs are considered discretionary and all we have to cut.

What the government wants is to close down civil society in this country. And that means they have to close down us, noncommercial NGOs, which remain the last bastion of the Russian civil society not controlled by the government.

It is my hope that the 2006 Season of Justice will not only be a time to raise awareness on our campus and in our community about justice issues around the world, but also a time for spiritual growth.

Large areas of "the World" will not hear us till we have publicly disowned much of our past. Why should they? We have shouted the name of Christ and enacted the service of Moloch.
