Being connected with God’s today is being motivated by His cause.

The cause of Christ is the Matrix upon which all we do in church must flow. A matrix is something that constitutes the place or point from which something else originates, takes form, or develops.

I believe a church validates its reason for existing by fulfilling this great cause. If we ignore it we too will be ignored. If we seek to fulfill other agendas and make them a priority then we too will be relegated by others agendas.

In Matthew 9:12-13 Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

It means that everything we do as church must flow from this one cause. The cause of Christ – to seek and saved that which is lost – to testify to the truth (John 18:37).

I love that scripture in Acts 20: 24, “However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me – the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace.”

Imagine a church totally motivated by this cause of Christ. Imagine the areas a church like this will touch. A city, a Nation - all of Europe; maybe even the world!

Luke 19:9-10, "Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost."
