The gospel does not change.
Jesus is the cornerstone. Everything we do has to be measured to Jesus, just as every subsequent rock in a building was measured and levelled against the cornerstone.
Rev 1:20
The church is the lampstand in this verse. The lamp stand required specific oil for fueling it. In this same manner, the church requires a specific "fuel" to work; the Holy Spirit. As a lampstand, we are to illuminate only one: Jesus Christ.
Spread the good news of the Kingdom of God. The good news is that anyone can enter freely, to a Kingdom where there is no death, no sorrow, no harm. But love, joy, and eternal life.
An expanding kingdom has authentic supporting evidence. When we declare that a new Kingdom is here, there has to be evidence, as is clear with the signs and wonders following those who obey God.
Make the church healthy. Healthy things grow.
The Kingdom of God should invade every area of your life. You can't have a bread that is half leavened. Yeast affects every part of a loaf, just like we should surrender every part of our life. And when we do, we will grow!
