Humans are the Prize
Humans Want Resources from CREATOR -- Disciplemaking Structures
At KIG4AGK, we believe humans are the prize.
Every system exists to serve people.
Families.
Communities.
Businesses.
Churches.
Schools.
Governments.
Economies.
These structures matter because people matter.
The Bible teaches that every human being bears the image of God and possesses inherent dignity, value, and purpose.
For this reason, disciple-making is ultimately about people, not programs.
Leadership is about people, not positions.
Production is about people, not profits alone.
Culture is about people, not institutions alone.
When systems become the goal, people are often forgotten.
When people remain the focus, systems can become powerful tools for human flourishing.
The goal is not merely to build organizations.
The goal is to help people know God, lead themselves wisely, serve others faithfully, and contribute productively within their families, communities, and cultures.
Humans are the prize.
Always.
Disciplemaking Begins with Understanding the Story
Every person is living within a story.
We are born into families, communities, nations, cultures, economies, and traditions that existed long before we arrived. Yet the Bible presents a larger story that explains who we are, why we are here, what has gone wrong, and what God intends to restore.
At KIG4AGK, disciple-making begins by learning that story.
We call this approach "The Bookends."
The opening chapters of Genesis reveal God's original intentions for humanity and creation.
The closing chapters of Revelation reveal God's promised. completion of those intentions.
Between those Bookends unfolds the story of human history, the rise and fall of nations, the development of cultures, the struggle between truth and error, and God's ongoing work to rescue, redeem, and restore.
Disciple-making is more than acquiring information.
It is learning to live wisely within God's story.
It is learning to lead yourself well.
It is learning to serve others faithfully.
It is learning to participate in God's purposes wherever He has placed you.
That journey begins with understanding the Bookends. Congrats on completing that!

Course 1: Freedom of Learning Systems
The following course explains how human beings today educate themselves about systems around them. Where do we learn this? From the oldest human contract on the planet. That is where Education begins: Learning about systems in this cosmos is how you and I participate in Advancing God's Kingdom.
Education itself is about rationally identifying sequences within a system. You can see an order of operations in a system, like an equation of expectation. You can expect repeated sequences in a system. There are systems on this planet and in this cosmos that you can observe and participate in.
Educating yourself about these systems is part of the Equation of Expectation: "be fruitful and multiply." This expectation is laid out in the first human contract law.
As you learn to participate in the systems around you, you become an active agent in that system. This is part of our "human being" - also known as a human's participation in the image of God. He made us to be like Him in that we can control our thoughtbergs and align them toward the objectives we choose to follow. This is the freedom factor that is always true, regardless of who controls your environments. Each human can "think and adjust" to create a different reaction sequence.
Course 2: Identifying Educational Systems
Defining a System: A system is a set of sequenced actions that repeat consistently.
There are systems on this planet, in our Solar System, and in the larger domain of space within this cosmos. We learn about this structured system in the first human contract.
The first three earliest human contracts are systems of education that each human should access now. See the link above Genesis 1 - 3.
Read the first contract, and identify the features and benefits of the systems that you observe. Your abilities to think, reason, reflect, restructure, and respond are functions of the package that came pre-installed in human beings. More on that later.
Make a list of what you see in the system. Experiment with the observations you make to deepen your learning.
Educating yourself about these systems is part of the Equation of Expectation: "be fruitful and multiply." This expectation is laid out in the first human contract law.

Whatever your leadership development "needs" and/or "wants" may be, whether in a religious culture or a business culture, we can help you choose what best suits your situation, and improves your production significantly.
Promote your Disciplemaking Resources
This platform is intended to reach all the nations of the United Nations - in fact every soul on every soil of Earth.
While all of the above Resources find their source from Genesis 1 - 3, we all know that there are many "belief systems." In fact, each soul has its own belief system. It's called your worldview. And it is controlled only by you, and whoever you have to work with to stay alive.
We understand, because we are all just like each other in that way. We find ourselves in a world that we do not understand perfectly. And we all make choices that seem like the most fulfilling. It's all okay now. Creator knows us ... everything about us ... and He says, "Come to me all who are weary and heavy laden; and I will give you rest."
This is a cooperative effort open to all organizations, (whether "for profit" or "non-profit) and individuals within all the nations. This site is free. We aim to free those captive to the lies of Lucifer into the truth of Creator. Our first mission will always be to serve the most needy. Mission 2019 is the expression of that. Help us connect needs to resources.

Side Note: Inform The Urgency about Messiah's Coming
The urgency surrounding the Messiah's coming is not a new Christian alarm. It has always been part of the soil of salvation. That soil nourishes the Tree of Life, whose Book of Names bears witness to those who will enjoy everlasting life by God's grace.
Our calling, then, is to hear, believe, and live with confidence that God's mercy is sufficient to cover every human iniquity. Even at the crucifixion, we see this truth displayed. One of the mockers became a worshiper. In repentance (metanoia), he changed his mind and entrusted himself to the Messiah. That moment reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God's mercy.
Perfection remains the standard that exposes the tension every person feels between guilt and mercy. As citizens of God's Kingdom and members of earthly communities, we are called to understand both. We choose to lay down our lives in service to others—even those who oppose us—beginning within our families and extending into our neighborhoods, workplaces, and nations.
Through ordinary, orderly, and faithful patterns of life—weekly, monthly, and season by season—even imperfect people can agree to live in civilized ways that honor one another.
God's mercy frees us not merely to survive, but to produce. We cultivate, build, govern, and steward organizations that contribute to the common good. Healthy corporations can strengthen broader cooperation across communities and nations when they are guided by integrity and human dignity.
In that sense, the American ideal at its best reflects the freedom to develop sound strategies, share them openly, and help others implement systems that uphold the dignity of every person. Human dignity becomes a primary cultural consciousness.
Government exists to protect the people under the rule of law, administered by public officers and supported by responsible citizens who willingly participate in the flourishing of society.
The hope of the coming Messiah therefore motivates faithful stewardship in the present. Because God's mercy is sufficient, we are free to repent, to produce, to serve, and to build cultures that increasingly reflect His justice, compassion, and peace while we await the fulfillment of His Kingdom.

The Apostle Paul's Message in all the churches
The Apostle Paul, according to the contracts in the New Testament of the Holy Bible, developed a systematic approach to explaining God's love and mercy. The Apostle described the Gospel of God's Kingdom as "the whole purpose of God." Paul taught this "in all the churches." Paul spent two years preaching daily near the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus (ca 56-58 AD). What was his system for communicating God's counsel?
This book launches into the deeper implications of the simple outlines above.
It will change your vantage points, elevating your mind to see the world as Creator sees it. You will gain so much from the exercise of thinking deeply about the implications of Paul's synthesis.
