  1. Bill Johnson _ When Heaven Invades Earth

    Philippians understood very well Paul's charge about being citizens of another world. Paul spoke, not about going to heaven some day, but about living as citizens of heaven today…specifically from heaven toward earth.3 We have the privilege of representing heaven in this world, so that we might bring a manifestation of heaven to this world.

    That spirit has worked to reduce the gospel to a mere intellectual message, rather than a supernatural God encounter. It tolerates the mention of power if it's in the past.

    The spirit of the antichrist is at work today, attempting to influence believers to reject everything that has to do with the Holy Spirit's anointing. This rejection takes on many religious forms, but basically it boils down to this: we reject what we can't control. That spirit has worked to reduce the gospel to a mere intellectual message, rather than a supernatural God encounter. It tolerates the mention of power if it's in the past. Occasionally, it considers that power is appropriate for people in faraway places. But, never does this spirit expect the anointing of God's power to be available in the here and now. The spirit of control works against one of God's favorite elements in man: faith. Trust is misplaced as it becomes anchored in man's ability to reason.

    Many have made the mistake of thinking that Christians are to be the heads of all corporations, governments, and departments. As good as that may sound, it's actually a fruit of the true goal. Christlikeness-excellence with humility-is the real goal. Promotion comes from the Lord. If we spent more time developing a Kingdom heart, we'd have more people in key places of leadership.

    to follow Him, we must be willing to follow off the map-to go beyond what we know. To do so successfully we must recognize His presence above all.

  8. Bill Johnson _ When Heaven Invades Earth

    salvation was not the ultimate goal of Christ's coming. It was the immediate target…the marker in the lane. Without accomplishing redemption, there was no hope for the ultimate goal-which was to fill each born-again person with the Holy Spirit. God's desire is for the believer to overflow with Himself, that we might "be filled with all the fullness of God." {Eph. 3:19}. The

    But it is illegitimate to allow fear to keep us from pursuing a deeper experience with God! Embracing such fear causes a failure to the other extreme, which is culturally more acceptable, but significantly worse in eternity.

  11. Bill Johnson _ When Heaven Invades Earth

    Our culture has castrated the role of the teacher. It is possible to attend college, get a business degree, and never have received any teaching by someone who ever owned a business. We value concepts and ideas above experience with results. I
