Prologue
The Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground in His own image and likeness and breathed into his nostrils, the breath of life. And the man became a living being ( Genesis 1:26, 2:7 ), set apart in God's desire to worship Him.
Man's relationship with God was broken when he disobeyed God. In that moment of small rebellion something large, beautiful, and free was shattered...God's perfect creation. Man was separated from God by his disobedience and his desire to act on his own. Disobendience is sin, and it breaks our fellowship with God. God hates sin, he must punish sinners and the punishment of sin is eternal death ( Romans 6:23 ).
But God, in His love for His creation, sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ, to save man from eternal wrath and death. He allowed His beloved Son to die just so He could offer us pardon. When we come to Christ, He forgives all the sins we have committed, or will ever commit and thus securing the relationship with God.
The Ministry
The Greek verb Proskaleo means "to call" or "to invite" (Kaleo = "call", Pros = "towards"). It carries the idea of a face-to-face calling so that one can receive a commission from another.
