Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. (Isaiah 45:22)
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)

Christ came to establish a Kingdom of light and truth, aimed at restoring life and original purposes of creation.

The sacrifice of Jesus on the cross made it possible for us to be free from Satan's dominion and pursue our destiny. Read more...
