Konkrete : Why We Do It
Christians around the globe need a new platform where they can come together to live and work as One, create new wealth, properly steward their Blessings, and better care for one another and people in need...
If not us, then Who?
If not now, then When?
Konkrete is heralding a new way to move forward! Actually, it’s a return to the ways of old, and that way is together!
Today, our national and global economies are corrupt and failing. Small businesses everywhere are being shuttered. Even local churches are being forced to close their doors. Our planet’s future seems dark and bleak. However, we are people of Promise! We are people of great Hope and Faith! So, we do NOT have to align ourselves with the world’s reality. There is a narrower, but much better, Rock Solid path to follow.
Consider this. Most Christians today believe the end is near. No matter whether Jesus returns in 8 days or 800 years, we know our time here is short. That much is obviously TRUE. However, because Christians everywhere are focused on the antichrist and the mark of the beast, and are busy worrying about one-world government and a global currency being imposed upon all of us, we are inadvertently helping to turn symbolic interpretations of the Book of Revelation into self-fulfilling prophecy. It would certainly be much better if we kept our thoughts and prayers about the Book of Revelation focused on Christ – specifically Christ revealed.
Most religious people believe satan is still so powerful that he (a defeated, lifeless worm) can create a whole new, evil world government, economy, and financial system just to try to force Children of God to worship him. Regardless of what the future holds, however, Christians should absolutely KNOW, without even the slightest hint of doubt, that the Body of Christ, obediently following God’s Word and the leading of His Holy Spirit, can easily accomplish similar things – but bigger, better, faster, and for the sake of righteousness, with absolute honor and integrity – all for the Glory of God.
That is why we are so confident in this undertaking. We know on whose authority we stand. As Konkrete Colleagues, we are building together with one another upon the Chief Corner Stone – Christ the Solid Rock! We are literally repenting and returning to doing the only things we have ever needed to do to thrive and prosper, and to fulfill the Great Commission – which is to listen, to trust, and to obey.
Konkrete® – Rock Solid – Like JESUS!
Be Blessed!
1So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good. 4As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6For it stands in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious, and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.” 7So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,” 8and “A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. 9But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. 11Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. 12Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.
