Project Works to Deconstruct the Establishment

“The established church is imploding and the Jesus 4 King project is helping people escape.” They say they are part of a growing movement of people around the world who are rejecting “manmade Christianity” in favor of pursuing genuine spirituality.

But they are also calling for community leaders to be godly public servants that protect and uphold justice for all. In the Boise area, they are contacting dozens of leaders asking them to repent and obey God, and warning of the public consequences if they don’t.

Chris Stevens started Jesus4King.org to enlist, enable, and encourage individuals and families to take responsibility for their spiritual growth rather than depending on ‘professionals’. He helps volunteers develop highly relational small groups where people help themselves and each other to grow spiritually and stay engaged and involved in meaningful work.

Chris says, “There is a spiritual revolution underway because many people want to make a difference, but are ill-prepared because of the pervading leave-it-to-the-experts mentality. This mentality impacts the whole society in a lot of negative ways, with families probably hurt most.”

Religious leaders are being called to account for consuming people’s focus, efforts, and resources with the traditions of men. Chris claims that organized religion fails to help people become godly leaders because if it did it would go out of business.

Here’s how Jesus4King.org describes first century Christianity: Day by day, from house to house, they met for fellowship, prayer, studying the word of God, and on the first day of the week they gathered to eat the Lord’s Supper. This was like a family get-together in someone’s home to enjoy a love feast, and each had a psalm, a teaching, an exhortation.

“The priesthood of all believers is a New Testament concept that is rarely emphasized by those whose paycheck and social status depends on unbiblical perceptions. These are usually the ones who are most aggressively opposed to the spiritual revolution,” said Chris.

ABOUT – Jesus4King.org promotes the Lord Jesus Christ. It was launched to combat Biblical illiteracy, which many say is the cause of unhealthy and often violent problems plaguing our culture, including: widespread corruption; dishonesty; drug and alcohol abuse; sex abuse; welfare dependency and bankruptcy; and the ethical/moral/religious/family decline.
