What if the verse everyone uses to make you feel guilty actually means something completely different?
Romans 3:23 says all have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. But Abraham John points out that the Greek word for sin, hamartia, doesn’t mean “you did something bad.” It means you missed the mark. You missed your purpose. You took a wrong turn on the way to the destination God intended for you.
That changes everything.
Dr. Ben Edwards and Abraham John go deep on what salvation was actually for, why Jesus never once asked someone if they wanted to go to heaven when they die, and why the gospel so many of us grew up with was only part of the story. Abraham shares what he’s been witnessing traveling to nations across Africa, where governments, religious systems, and education have all failed to answer the most basic human question: who am I, and why am I here?
The answer isn’t in a political movement, a denomination, or a self-improvement plan. The answer is in the kingdom. And the kingdom, Jesus said, is within you.
They also talk about the prodigal son and why you don’t have to clean yourself up before you come home, the difference between an orphan mindset and a son mindset, and what it actually looks like to walk in your true identity right now, in your everyday life.
Dr. Ben and Abraham John will be speaking together in person at the Kingdom Wellness Conference this April in Indiana. If this conversation is stirring something in you, come be in the room. Get your tickets and find all the details at kingdomwellnessevents.info
The tree of life is being restored. The leaves of that tree are for the healing of the nations. And healing starts with knowing who you are.
