Jesus said, "Now is the judgement of this world. Now shall the prince of this world be cast out"
John 12:31

I came into the world to defeat the power of sin and evil which inhabits as a temporary sojourner and alien in the glorious world which the Father has created and is creating. The human mind can never fully understand how my life and death and resurrection accomplished this great work of restoring to His loving possession all that looks for perfection and restoration in His Kingdom. Nor is it necessary, but only to accept and to learn, trust and practice faithfulness in accepting, step by step, that which is presented.

But it is necessary that the children of the Father the world over, especially those who regard themselves committed to truth and goodness - as they understand it - should understand and realise that daily they are confronted with a choice, and according to their reaction to that choice of thought or action or disposition will they grow towards the Kingdom of Light, turn back on their tracks, or stagnate and atrophy. Constantly the Father's loving purpose is expressed in the individual life of everyone, in corporate activity and in the manifold activities of national life in all nations.

So it is that judgement is now. So it is that the prince of this world is cast out in every particular in which he confronts each and every manifestation of human growth and expression. And this is because, having been lifted up on the Cross, I draw all men and nations to me. Let this be known deep in the heart and mind, understood, preached, acted upon and lived. So will the kingdoms of the world become the kingdoms of the Father in the power of our Holy Spirit.
