The Iowa Conference hosted the first planning session of The Daniel Project, designed to organize a group of spiritually motivated young people to reach their generation with the grace and truth of Jesus Christ.
The key verses are:
” … but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits [take action]. And those of the people who understand shall instruct many … And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them wait, until the time of the end …” Dan 11:32b–33, Dan 11:35
In the above passage, we see five great undertakings of faithful believers in the end times. To be accurate, this passage is speaking specifically of Jewish believers during the Tribulation Period. However, we have every reason to adapt it to these closing moments of the Church Age.

Ephesians #10

Ephesians #10

Eph 2:8-10 Salvation is deliverance. We need daily deliverance (Jam 1:21, Rom 7:24) "the word is able to save your souls". Salvation is entirely initiated by God "by Grace" (Eph 1:4, Eph 2:8). "By Grace you have been saved...". Mercy paves the way for Grace. GRACE = "God's Riches At Christ's Expense". "... through faith..." Salvation is secured through Jesus Christ. He took the hostility for us (1Jo 3:8, Heb 2:9, 2Co 5:21). A spiritual transition took place at salvation (1Col 1:12-13, Co1 15:22, Joh 3:7). Salvation (righteousness) is given by God and received (peace) by faith (Psa 85:9-13, Joh 1:10). Salvation is a free gift "...and that not of yourself; it is a gift of God..." (Rom 6:23, Rom 3:24, Joh 1:12, Jam 1:17). "...not of works, lest any one should boast" means there's nothing we can do to earn it (Rom 4:5). Salvation empowers us to do good works (Eph 1:10). We are God's masterpiece;"...created in Christ Jesus..." (Tit 3:5, Mat 19:28, 2Co 5:17). God's goal having created us is good works (not things we do -- things God does). Walking means walk of dependence (Rom 8:4, Gal 5:16), by faith (2Co 5:7), in good works (Eph 2:10), walking worthy (Eph 4:1), and in the sphere of love (Eph 5:1), as children of light (Eph 5:8), and in wisdom (Eph 5:15-18).
