I

Have a Dream
I have a dream that one day the congregation (church) of Yeshua (Jesus) Messiah (Christ) will rise
up to her Creator-given calling and begin to live out the true meaning of her identitywhich is,
the very heartthrob of Sovereign Almightythe fiance of the King of Kings.
I have a dream that Yeshua Messiah will one day be Head of His congregation again. Not in pious
rhetoric, but in reality.
I have a dream that groups of people fulfilled in the Messiah (Christians) everywhere will begin to
flesh out the New Covenant reality that the congregation is a living organism and not an
institutional organization.
I have a dream that the clergy/laity divide will someday be an antique of congregation history, and
the Lord Yeshua Himself will replace the moss-laden system of human hierarchy that has usurped
His authority among His people.
I have a dream that multitudes of Sovereign's people will no longer tolerate those man-made
systems that have put them in religious bondage and under a pile of guilt, duty, and condemnation,
making them slaves to authoritarian systems and leaders.
I have a dream that the centrality and supremacy of Yeshua Messiah will be the focus, the
mainstay, and the pursuit of every person fulfilled in the Messiah and every congregation. And that
Sovereign's dear people will no longer be obsessed with spiritual and religious things to the point
of division. But their obsession and pursuit would be a personthe Lord Yeshua Messiah.
I have a dream that countless congregations will be transformed from high-powered business
organizations into spiritual familiesauthentic Messiah-centered communitieswhere
participants know one another intimately, love one another unconditionally, bleed for one another
deeply, and rejoice with one another unfailingly.
I have a dream today....

DC, on August 28, 1963.
"I Have a Dream" was taken for the most part with some word exceptions from Frank Viola's book
titled Reimagining Church: Pursuing the Dream of Organic Christianity on pages 27 and 28.
