And so I wanted to do an illustration that proved my theory on where we're kind of missing what God is doing now, what Jesus is doing at the right hand of God. And the verse I was kind of getting all this from was in Ephesians 1.10, where it says, you know, God goes through that from the beginning, he had this plan for people to be in Christ, Jews and Gentiles, which means the whole world.
to be under this umbrella of in Christ. And here's what that's going to look like of all these people from all these different countries and different nations. This is what it's going to be like. And in Ephesians 1.10, it says, and this all, the whole plan was to culminate with, I'll read it. I'll start reading in verse nine. He made known to us the mystery of his will.

You know, what does God want for humanity? He made known to us the mystery. of his will according to his pleasure, which he purposed, there's a phrase, in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment. I mean, drum roll. Everything through time was leading to this one declaration to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head. Even Christ.

So I'm like, man, what a statement. So I think we have two narratives. You have the one of Ephesians where all things in heaven and on earth are brought together now. Yeah. And this is, he wrote that to the Ephesians, what, almost 2,000 years ago? Correct. So we're still living that. But it doesn't feel that way in our minds. religious establishments.

It's kind of like, well, we're just waiting on this to happen. And so I did an illustration last weekend. I spoke out at camp. Did I tell you all about that? No. They had like a sportsman's day at Camp Chioka, where we've all been. I mean, I think I first went to camp as just a little kid, which is why I did that.

I didn't meet my wife there. I met her at the church that sponsors camp, but I saw her out there, and that was part of the process. I was like, what? because they always used to ask, who are you going to take on a moonlight hike? And I was thinking, I'd like to take that girl, but she probably wouldn't go, which was eventually going to be my wife. So I didn't even ask.

So what I did, now they had people from all over came, and it was kind of a, I think it was a fundraiser for camp. I didn't really know what it was. They asked me to. You know, they said it's a sportsman day, you know, people who appreciate the outdoors, and they had, like, you shot bows and threw hatchets, and they had all kind of fun things for the kids.

And there were probably a couple hundred people there.
