Maybe that is the "Revolution."

I love and believe the Gospel message,
Acts 2:38 ..CS ... but we don't stay "stuck" on it only[please don't mischaracterize] ...
Hebrews 6:
Therefore, let us leave behind the basic teaching about Christ and advance to maturity, without laying the foundation all over again: repentance from dead works and faith in God,
2
instruction about baptisms 1 and laying on of hands, resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment.
3
And we shall do this, if only God permits.
4
For it is impossible in the case of those who have once been enlightened and tasted the heavenly gift 2 and shared in the holy Spirit
5
and tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, 3
6
and then have fallen away, to bring them to repentance again, since they are recrucifying the Son of God for themselves 4 and holding him up to contempt.
7
Ground that has absorbed the rain falling upon it repeatedly and brings forth crops useful to those for whom it is cultivated receives a blessing from God.
8
But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is rejected; it will soon be cursed and finally burned.
9
But we are sure in your regard, beloved, of better things related to salvation, even though we speak in this way.
