Relationship Power... exceeds what's possible

The principles he based it all on... It was always the nature of Jesus to put things in very a simple form. He said all the commandements are summed up in two simple actions...love God with all our Heart, Mind and Soul. And show the same love to everyone else. For Him, it started in love and ended in love. From this core principle everything is built. I had a chance to get my mentor's view on this whole picture. So I summed it up as follows.

Relationship Power...exceeding the possible

"Some View This As Radical," he said. "Remember That Spirit Creates Matter," he emphasized.

When the late Dr. A visited with me that day I saw a piercing earnest look in his eyes. He believed that "Spirit", God's Spirit, creates matter and that same Spirit is available to mankind
today. He also expressed that "this is radical." Here a man in his early 80's had a vision for our world like a young person just getting out of college. I have summarized a few of his thoughts he expressed as possibly radical - or maybe a radical departure from what we see today. In business, life or an organization, this can be your apex of power.

What Makes a Quality Person?
Self centeredness hinders quality working relationships. Harmonious relationships are necessary to reach ideal goals. These individual qualities need to be an active personal characteristic of individuals working together.
Be humble
Be teachable
Be forgiving

When Supernatural Results are Produced from Meeting.
Smaller groups can get more results than larger groups because it is easier to develop harmony and "caring" relationships when people honestly love and care for others in a group - even more than themselves. It creates a powerful Spiritual dynamic. They will see greater results at higher levels with these qualities. Dr. A outlined the spiritual foundation for achieving "supernatural" results.
Two or more
--working together
--believing in Jesus Christ as actually with them
a. loving
b. sharing
c. serving

"We have this assurance that as united believers we have His presence, and if we have His presence, all things are possible."

The Quality of Oneness
The ideal for power in any group will have all these factors interacting in the group (a community, an organization, the workplace).

1. One with God
2. One in themselves
3. One with each other
4. Unity with all believers
5. In communication... constantly in touch with each other
6. Unity in material things ... sharing with those in need
7. Unity in sharing their faith ... groups together in mission should at all costs avoid disunity.

Bonding Brings Supernatural Results
Committing all that we have for the good of each other creates a bonding, producing supernatural results. Such love, togetherness draws people to a group like, as if it were a magnet. They form the power of God. Then, all things become possible as they believe.
The key is ... each person's need is viewed as important as their own. The group makes sure all personal needs are taken care of.

Spirit Moves the Physical
When God created earth, nothing existed at first. His Spirit continues to manifest itself in the earth. As believers in Jesus Christ and God's existence come to work together, the potential for creation still exists.

Dr. A emphasized many times in our meetings that Spirit creates matter. As two or more agree, with sacrificially loving relationships, this power to create from "nothing" is still available. United belief through prayer manifests the invisible (belief in mind and heart) to become tangible (a physical existing reality).

For the believers in Jesus Christ the power of Christ resides in and around us. When at least two believers meet concerning a matter, all of God's Spirit power is available. It takes "being knit together." "It may be impossible for mortal men and women; but with God all things are possible!"

Well, I had hundreds of personal meetings with Dr. A in the last 6 years of Dr. A's life...until the mid 1990's. Dr. A served as president for several Christian colleges. His one son was a nationally recognized government leader, his deceased son was an active "secret" contributor to personal needs of humanity. His other son is a businessman.
