WE NEED TO FULLY APPLY THIS GOOD NEWS TO OUR WHOLE LIFE: The things we learn in our earliest years from those around us, seem real to us, but may not be the truth. If some of the points below don’t feel totally real to you, you need to reprogram those early stages of thinking. This needs three steps. (i) Picture yourself at each stage outlined above, and think how each point is important for that time of life. Record this in a blank notebook - you can draw pictures too if you want. Share with others – this is ideal for small groups of people. Be sure you get more basic Bible knowledge before the next level. (ii) Now work backwards through the stages, writing how each point makes you feel. Then, before this next level, have a look the gifts and tasks God has for people to do. (iii) Now, go through the stages again from the beginning, asking God to show you things He wants you to know. Be open to Him showing some deep and powerful things that have affected you, and be prepared to ask for good counselling support, to help you dig out any faulty thinking that is messing up your life. It will take time, perhaps more than a year, but will change the rest of your life into eternity - it has to be worth it!

TWELVE POINTS - click on any blue/purple lines for scripture references

1. God made everything, and is everywhere; he is a Spirit
2. God is love. He wants to care for us as his dear children
3. But people wanted their own way, so evil has been able to have its way with us all
4. God sent his son Jesus to earth, to be born and grow up just as we do, so he would be able to help us
5. Jesus showed how he was God by the powerful miracles he did out of love; also by how totally good he was
6. Jesus was unjustly ordered to be killed by jealous people, but he came to life again after three days in the grave
7. Wise people around the world had said these things would happen (especially in the Bible)

8. When we die, Jesus will judge what we are like. But not one of us is good enough for there is no wrong in heaven
9. But when Jesus died on the Roman cross, he suffered the punishment for all us. So when we sadly admit to him that we’re not good, that we've done many things wrong, he can forgive us
10. And God can help us change the way we think (repent) as we look at the things we’ve done wrong
11. God shows us good and right ways to behave; and He gives us strength to love him and each other
12. We become a member of God's family, and he can look after us, and we will all be together with him forever Apply these to our

      I’ve been a Christian since 1965, after watching Billy Graham on TV while babysitting, but until I worked with this program, deep down God’s good news still didn’t feel real – even after I experienced real miracles!
     Then I did a course: “Perspectives on the World Christian Movement”, and I found that our view of reality is formed in our earliest years, and I needed to change mine to what I now knew was the truth.
     My teaching experience showed how our minds develop, and it came to me to reprogram the memory of those years – remembering Jesus was there too, but I just didn’t know at the time... And it did become real!
     So now I pray it will work for you too, taking the Gospel from your head to your heart….
In Jesus’ wonderful Name! Amen!
