Our Enterprise - Final

The Lord has told us to seek Him and we’ll find Him, because He wants to be found. He has sent His Word to communicate with us, Jesus, to reveal Himself to us in the form of His Son, to show us what He’s like.5 God is like Jesus, and the only way you can know what God is like and find Him is through Jesus. That’s His Word, His communication, His message, His answer. When people send out signals to try to find God, if they will listen, they’ll hear God’s answers. The Lord will speak to them. The Lord will lead them to somebody who knows Jesus and who can tell them about Him.

Mankind, the creation of God, is seeking his Creator. A lot of people don’t know it; they don’t realize it. They don’t know exactly what they’re looking for. They don’t know who or what they’re seeking; they just want to know who they are, what they’re here for, what’s their meaning, what’s their purpose in life. “Why are we here? Why were we created? Who created us?” We know the answers, isn’t that wonderful? We have the answers to what mankind is looking for, the reason for our existence, the meaning to this life, why we’re here, why we were created.

The whole story is right in the Bible, how the world was created and for what and by whom and how we were put here, leading right up to the story of Jesus, how God’s Son finally came to reveal God to us to show us what God is like. So Jesus, therefore, is His Word, His communication, His message. Jesus is saying, “I am.”6 He’s the Great I Am. In other words, “I am God. I’m God’s Son. I’m His communication. I’m here to show you what God is like. I’m His message.” Jesus is God’s Word, God’s message.

We would have never known what God was like, but through God sending Jesus, He made a picture of Himself, in a sense, to show us what He’s like. He has given us that story and He’s given us that message to spread throughout the whole world and tell man who God is, what He is, what He’s like, and that He loves us, and that He does want to be joined to us and with us, and He wants us to join Him.

This movie is a rather remarkable message that parallels the idea of man’s hunger for God and his Creator. It’s an illustration of man’s heartcry for his Creator, how man hungers for his Creator, the one who made him, and to find out why he was made and what he’s here for, what’s the purpose in his life. Jesus can tell us all of that, and He tells us all of that right in the Bible. Even the Old Testament says, “This is the whole duty of man, to glorify God and keep His commandments.”7 In other words, to thank God for creating him and to obey God. And we know that His commandments can be summed up in two commandments—love God and love your neighbor as yourself.8

That’s our mission; that’s our enterprise, to lead His creations to their Creator that they might be joined with Him and know who He is, what He is, and His love. We’re preparing citizens for the kingdom of God, in order that we might join Him in His great enterprise of the future to restore the whole world and man and set things right, and to make a new world, a heavenly world, the way God intended for it to be.

We are on an enterprise, a mission to explore the world that we might lead people to the Lord and help make a whole new world for God of new people, new children of God, a “new heaven and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.”9
