GHLU is motivated by the fact that our entire world has been wounded by all kinds of afflictions and greatly in need of healing. When God created mankind, the original plan was for us to be eternally blessed as we lived in a loving fellowship with Him. We were created to glorify God through worship and obedience and to extend His will and righteousness on earth.
However mankind betrayed their creator and thus began the systemic degeneration of life. As the word of God declares, due to our unwillingness to acknowledge God and His will, we have become filled with wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. We are full of envy, murder, strife, violence, deceit and malice. We are gossips, slanderers, inventors of evil things, disobedient, arrogant, untrustworthy, unloving, merciless and unforgiving.
As a result of such pervasive degradation of evil thinking and behavior we have defiled society’s economic, political, social and moral systems of life on a global scale. Natural calamities, human destruction, massive sufferings in the form of poverty, injustice, war, oppression, persecution, genocide, etc., have prevailed to the extent of being everyday practices of the world. This condition has profoundly affected every single individual, every family, every generation and every nation – so much so that no one is able to experience true freedom, joy, peace, hope and progress.
When knowledge is based on the defiance of God, human intelligence, ingenuity and wisdom are incapable of correcting the past and healing the present towards shaping the hopeful future. Neither, human reasoning at its best, the most magnificent scientific discoveries, the wonders of philosophical and political creativity, military might, nor extraordinarily skilled diplomacy are able to provide fulfillment, contentment and internal peace.
This is why God says: My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you as my priests, because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.
True healing comes from our gracious God who came to this world as the man, JESUS, and died on the cross for all of us because He so loved the world. And because of this great love He wants to forgive each one of us. He wants to heal families, transform nations, and restore the world. JESUS is able to bring abundant life, restore what is lost, and recover what is dead. Believing in JESUS and in His teachings will empower us in knowledge and compassion so that we may heal the wounds of society. He says: I am the way, the truth, and the life.
The key to experiencing a full and abundant life is for us to be transformed by the renewal of our minds. Unless our mind is renewed and transformed, the present state of life cannot be changed. As Albert Einstein once said, No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that has created it.
Through the renewal of our minds we can be better equipped to foster an environment that is able to heal the brokenness of our own individual communities, to reshape every system in all spheres of societal life that will subsequently transform nations and ultimately the world.
GHLU was founded primarily for this very purpose led and guided by the Gospel of the Kingdom:-
– To work toward the restoration of humankind in the true way of life as it is intended at the very beginning.
– To make nations disciples of freedom, peace, harmony, justice and progress.
To fulfill our purpose and goals we use the holy tools of faith which are:-
– LOVE : The most excellent way
– UNITY : The forever blessed life
– FORGIVENESS : The only path to peace and reconciliation
This is a call from Global Healing in Love and Unity ministries (GHLU).It is a call for others to join us in our life’s calling. We strongly believe to work in partnership with individuals, churches, governments, regional and global unions, ministries, professional associations, academic groups and institutions, governmental organizations and those who are working toward peace and well-being of society.
MAY THE ETERNAL LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST MANIFEST IT SELF THROUGH OUR LOVING OF ONE ANOTHER.
