SALVATION

What is salvation? This word had been used too often that it has lost it meaning. This is the same problem that have face many Christian terms, these terms have lose there spiritual value. Salvation is not the conversion into Christianity neither is it the entrance into the community of born again Christians. We would try to look at it through the eyes of the early Christians.

The word salvation as used by the early Christians also means deliverance. It appears several times in the Old Testament and it is usually used to refer to the deliverance from the hands of the enemy. Exodus chapter 14 verse 13 was the second time it was used in the Scripture and it read thus: "And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever." Here it refers to the deliverance from the land of Egypt. And another verse in the Old Testament used the word salvation this way: "At that time, this song will be sung in the country of Judah: We have a strong city, Salvation City, built and fortified with salvation." (Isa 26:1). Salvation here refers to a fortified city, a land.

The Israelites were delivered from the land of slavery (Egypt) into the land of salvation, which was for them Canaan. For we Christians, the land of slavery from which we are delivered is the kingdom of darkness and the land of our salvation is Christ. Paul puts it plainly when he said, "For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son," (Col 1:13). Salvation means being delivered from the land of slavery into the land of liberty. We have now a change of land, for we have left that land that we use to be, that land where we were slaves to sin, that land governed by the laws of death - yes, deadness in progress, deadness in health, deadness in happiness etc. It's a land where we experience deadness in everything good. But we've been rescued from such a land and we have been placed in a better land, this better land is Christ himself (Act 17:28).

THE BEAUTY OF THE LAND

By land here, we are not referring to a natural land or a symbolic land but a spiritual land. And that which is spiritual is more real than the natural. There is an actual land, a real land in the spirit and this is where we have been placed from the moment we were born again. This land is the land that our soul longs for, it holds all our heart dear. The Bible calls it the land of the Son of God's love (Col 1:13). It is where God pours out the love that he has for His Son, those who live in the land becomes partakers of the love that God has for Jesus. God love Jesus more than anything in all of eternity and in this land we enjoy the fullness of this love.

Here, the Lord of the Land adorns his people with his unsearchable rich. He places upon them immeasurable riches, riches too much for any man to carry. Love generously flows from the Lord like a mighty waterfall. It is a Land filled with treasure, every corner and every layer of this Land is deposited with all kinds of precious stones. The Land is governess by the law of liberty and of love. Here the wind of peace blow so freely, the light of truth shines in such brightness that it fills us with hope and assurance. Our eyes are open, our blindness is gone and now we have sight, we can no longer be confuse.

In this Land we find security, for it is a fortified city with walls far greater than the walls of Jericho. The Land is filled with healing, with joy and happiness, with miracles, with prosperity etc. It has all that we need and much more. This Land is more beautiful than the garden of Eden and it holds the tree of life. Here, man finally regain access to the tree of life and he is refresh by the river that flows from the throne of the Lord. In this Land we are clothed with glory and blessed with the fullness of God. This is our Land of salvation and it is beautiful beyond comparison.

THE NATURE OF THE LAND

We must understanding that this Land is wholly spiritual. It is spiritual but it is not abstract, spiritual things are more real than the natural. Natural things appear today and tomorrow they are no more but spiritual things are everlasting. So we've been placed in a spiritual Land because we have been born of the Spirit and we are now spiritual people. Everything in this Land is heavenly and spiritual but they are more real than any other thing.

The Land is the new creation of God, God had realize how terrible the old creation is decaying, it had been taken over by evil. God has now created a new creation - a new world. This new creation has always been God's dream, in fact God created the old creation to be a type and a shadow of the new creation. Everything in the old creation represent things that are in the new creation. Just as there are laws governing the natural world there are also law governing this spiritual Land.

The Land is heaven on earth, for in this Land we have a foretaste of heaven. This Land is free from death, sin and all the evil that plague the old creation. The Land is ruled by the laws of heaven as Jesus is the Lord of the Land. The Land is different from this world, it is glorious, for it is the very glory of God. And here in the Land we find the riches of the fullness of God, but this also is spiritual. For everything in the Land is spiritual and the more spiritual we are the more we enjoy the fullness of the land. We live in the Land by the Spirit, for walking in the Spirit is living in the Land. We have access to the things of the Land through the Spirit, this why we must be spiritual. For we have been reconstituted as spiritual people and we have been placed in a spiritual Land.

MAKING A HOME IN THE LAND

We have spend most of our lives in this world but God has given us the Land and He desire that we make it our home. We must learn to build a home here because this is where we belong now. The Bible calls us a new creation because we are a member of the new creation. We are not something belonging to the old creation that was brought into the new creation. When we got born against everything that has to with the old creation in us died and we where reconstituted according to the status of the new creation. Just as Adam was made from the dust on earth we where made from the substance of the new creation. We are made out of the new creation, so we belong here. Yes, we are sons of the soil. This is our home, this is where we were born.

As human beings, ever since we were born our highest priority is living and surviving in this world. But now that we've been reborn into a new Land our highest priority from henceforth should be how to live in this Land, how to survive here. We must learn to accept this Land as our new home and pitch our tent here. There are many Christians who get born again but go back to pitch a tent in the world of carnality and sin. They don't want to let go of the old creation, they are still attach to the things of this world.

We must learn to let go and migrate fully to the Land that God wants us to be. We must understand that there is nothing pleasurable in the world, there is nothing to be desired there. If this world is sweet God wouldn't have save us from it. If we were happy and comfortable in the kingdom of darkness we wouldn't have accepted salvation. But we've chosen the salvation that God offers, so let work towards enjoying the fullness of this salvation by making the Land our home. If this Land is our home we would settle here. Many Christians are constantly going in and out of the Land. Our relationship with God is always shaking and never stable, today we are walking in the spirit and before you know it we are back in the flesh, living our old sinful lives.

Most Christians are still struggling to settle in the Land, we are still going in and out, so indecisive. We need to make a firm decision, we need to choose if this world is what we want or the Land. Do we want to continue in salvation or go back to our sinful lives? If it's salvation we choose then let us hold strong our decision and never look back. It is time we settle down in this Land and make it our home.

LETTING GO OF YOUR FORMER LAND

We Christian talk alot about the formal land, we are so focus on the formal land that we forget we've been placed in a new Land. We talk a lot about sin, the devil, the many evils in the former land etc. But all these things are concepts of the old world. We are beyond all that now and we've transcended into a better world - a new Land and we need to forget about the former land.

We've carried so much from the world that we are finding it difficult to be socialized into the Land. It is like someone who had been in prison for a very long time and suddenly got freed. Instead of him to start living like a free and start learning to behave like free people he goes back and continue dressing like a prisoner, talking like a prisoner, thinking like a prison and encourage people to address him the way they address a prisoner. He had left the prison but the prison haven't left him. In side of him he is still holding on to the prison. We have to learn to let go and start behaving like citizens of heaven.

We are born in this Land and we should stop behaving as if we are aliens here, as if we belong to another land. When you see two Nigerians who haven't met before they end up discussing about the issues of the land. Even if they don't know each other before they could spend hours talking about their land because they know Nigeria so well. There are many times I try to talk to fellow about the Land and they look at me as if I'm speaking something alien. No, they always want to talk about things that are going on in the world.

They bring up issues and topics that are foreign to this Land and we end up finding it difficult to have an healthy conversation. Many Christians are behaving like Nigeria who doesn't know anything about Nigeria but always talking about America, always listening to news about America. Such a person would find it difficult to discuss with a fellow Nigerian concerning the issues of the land.

Haven't you wonder why Christians meet but yet finds it difficult to have an healthy conversation. They want to interact but they just can't. For example, go to any Christian internet group and you would see how quite they are, the only noise you would hear is that of argument. But go to any internet group about Nigeria people, it is filled with discussions about the government, the economy, the Nigeria people etc. They are discussing about the issues of the land. Christians no nothing about the Land they where born, the Land of their salvation. It's like they've abandoned it to be occupied with the things of the world.

This is as a result of the fact that we haven't let go of the former land and our former lives. We are still finding it difficult to be socialized into this new Land because we haven't settled and live long enough in the Land. We are always going in and out, back and front in our relationship with God. And we are never really interested about the things of the Land, we still find the things of the world more interesting. It's like we don't want the salvation that God has given us. We treat the Land as if God force salvation on us. We must begin to show interest in our Land of salvation if we truly value salvation.

THE LOCATION OF THE LAND

t's important we know where the Land is located. These too is a spiritual address, everything we are going to be talking about are spiritual things because we are spiritual men. We need to get use to the spiritual. The Land is located after the cross, it is built in a place where flesh cannot reach. In fact, everything that has to do with the old creation dies at the cross before it could reach the Land. There is no other way, you cannot get to the Land without passing the cross. So whatever that is in you that belongs to the old creation cannot enter into the Land, you can't bring them with you. The Land is filled with only that which is Christ, only that which is in unity with the resurrected man.

All your natural talents, skills, abilities, knowledge, wisdom etc didn't come with you to the Land, they couldn't cross the border. Even you have to die before you could get to the Land. It is the resurrected you that lives in the Land, the you that is constituted wholly of Christ. You didn't just die to your sin, you died to your live, you died to your likes and dislikes, to your your interest and irritation, to you ambit and behavior, to your desire, yes you died to the person you us to be. You died to live again, this means the person you use to be cannot continue to live, he doesn't exist in the Land. The degree by which you reckon to this truth is the degree by which you experience the Land. The more you are conformed to the death of Christ the more you enjoy the fullness of the Land.

As you break free from the flesh and carnality you would be able to access the riches of the Land. Many Christians are not able to enjoy the Land because they are still dominated by the flesh, they refuse to let their former self go. What is the need of having salvation when you won't take advantage of it. Why do we find it comfortable to stay at the outskirts of the Land when there are riches in the main city. It grieves God to see you being satisfied with just a little portion out of the fullness He had given you. You have to explore the fullness, God went through a lot to bring you to this Land and it is foolish to say "no, I don't want to go deep into the Land, I love it here at the outskirts". We must let go of that which cannot pass through the borders of the Land so that we can go deep and enjoy the fullness of the Land. God wants nothing less than fullness for every one of us.

Paul said "that I may know the power of his resurrection", this can only be found after the cross and the was why his bnest statement was "being conformed to his death". Let us be like Paul and let us desire the things that lies after the cross. There is a great Land after the cross, a Land flowing with milk and honey, a Land filled with riches and underlying with treasures beyond your imagination. Let our eyes be fixed on the things of the Land and let us be ready to pass through fire and death to get their.

LIVING IN THE LAND

Ever since we were born we have been taught to survive in this world. We were being equip with the required skills and knowledge needed to live and survive in this world. But when we got born again we where born into a new world, the Bible says "for in Him (Christ) we live and move and have our being" (Act 17:28). We were born in Christ the moment we got born again and now we must learn to live and survive in the Land (Christ is the Land). We need to learn to explore the Land and enjoy the fullness of the Land.

They say the moment a child is born socialization begins, the child as to be socialized into the society. So also in Christ the moment we get born again socialization into this new Land suppose to begin. We ought to be socialize into Christ in order to be able to live in Christ and enjoy the fullness of Christ. We must learn the principles that govern this Land and how to get what we need in this Land. We must attain the survival skills because living in this Land comes with it difficulty. We much learn how to deal with these difficulties. We must know know the Land well enough to navigate and find our way around it. You must learn the language of the Land so you won't get confused when interacting with the people of the Land. We must also learn how to handle situations in the Land. All these may sound figurative but they are real and it's because we know nothing about the Land that's why it seems like I'm saying something abstract.

For us to enjoy the Land we must learn to submit to the Lord of the Land. We need to become a part of this Land, to be integrated into the Land. We learn how to live in the Land the more we actually live in the Land. You cannot learn how to live in a place until you actually go and experience life in that place. We must begin to live in the Land and experience the Land. By doing so we would learn more about the Land and how to enjoy the fullness of the Land. The moment a child is born living becomes his highest priority, so also the moment we got born again living in the Land should become our highest priority. We as children of God can only exist in this Land and outside of the Land we are nothing but dead carnal men, who easily fall into sin and are ruled by the devil. But in this Land we are the children of the Almighty God and co-heir with Christ. So let us be ready to give up everything in order to live in the Land.

THE RICHES OF THE LAND

We all know that the world has riches, riches so beautiful and bright that dazzled the eyes of men. People would die for these riches, enslave themselves and do unthinkable things for the sake of these riches. The riches seem to be enchanting, causing even the most blameless people to cross the line of morality. But in this Land that our saviour has placed us, there exist riches far greater than that found in the world. The riches of the world is limited, not everybody can partake of this riches. But the riches of the Land is more than enough to circulate the whole Land so that everybody can have a great share of it. If fact the riches of the Land is unsearchable, it is beyond limit and it is all over the Land. You cannot spend five minute in this Land and not notice how rich the Land is. Where ever you go, you would find riches. You cannot miss it neither can you run away from it.

There is not a thing you sow in these Land that won't reap in such great harvest. But look at the world, so many people sowing with everything they have yet reaping little or nothing. In fact reaping seems to be luck, one would sow without the assurance of reaping. The Land is also rich in treasures, the Bible talks about "the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." (Col 2:3). This is only one out of the countless treasures the exist in the Land. You won't go too far before you come across these treasure, you don't even need to search for it because it is all over. All you need to do is ensure that you spend enough time in the Land and you would definitely come across the treasures in the Land.

The Bible also mentioned various riches in the Land: the riches of his glory (Rom 9:23), the riches of both the wisdom and knowledge of God (Rom 11:33), the riches of his grace (Eph 1:7), the riches of his glory (Eph 1:18) and the riches of his mercy (Eph 2:4). These is certainly not all the riches of the Land, for it is more than the Bible can mention. And all these riches are free, yes, all these riches are for us. The riches of the Land exist in such unbelievable measure. You may think you've seen it all and suddenly you discover riches far greater than what you've seen. You may then conclude that it couldn't be more than these and suddenly you discover that there exist even far more. The measures of the riches keep defying your reasoning. The deeper you go, the more riches you encounter.

This is the Land that our saviour has placed and it is indeed rich. If only we know how rich this Land is, the riches of the world world seem so insignificant and unattractive to us. You would give anything to partake in these riches. Just come and swim in the riches that are now yours through Christ Jesus.

THE FORTIFICATION OF THE LAND

"At that time, this song will be sung in the country of Judah: We have a strong city, Salvation City, built and fortified with salvation." (Isa 26:1).

We were save from death unto life and our salvation is the power that rose Christ from the death. Concerning this the Bible says, "And what [is] the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set [him] at his own right hand in the heavenly [places]," (Eph 1:19-20). These verses says the exceedingly great and mighty power which God used to raise Jesus from the death is now release to us-ward who believe. It is standing as a fortification for us to protect our salvation and what a mighty fortification it is.

We are safe and secured in this Land, anything that wants to touch us would have to pass through the mighty power that conquered death and broke the gate of hell. This is why Jesus said, "upon this rock I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it." (Matt 16:18). Even if all the powers of hell is released and emptied against you they can't snatch you out of the Land, they can't take away your salvation. Jesus went further to say, "And this is the will of God, that I should not lose even one of all those he has given me, but that I should raise them up at the last day." (John 6:39). And in chapter 10 Jesus said, "27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them away from me, 29 for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else. No one can snatch them from the Father’s hand."

Jesus tried to reassure us over and over again that we are safe with him and nothing could take us away from the salvation he has placed us. This is how fortified the wall of our salvation is, nothing could penetrate it. The only way out of this salvation is when we walk out ourselves. It is only you that could take yourself out of the Land. This is why Paul told Timothy "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life," (1Tim 6:12). No matter how fierce the battle is the devil cannot make us loss salvation until we let go of it. So remain in the Land, for you are safe here, don't let the devil trick you into letting go of the Land. Hold on to eternal life, fall in love with the Land and never let it go. Have confidence in the fortification of the Land.

LOVE FOR THE LAND

All through history you would see battles and wars. What is it really about? Why do men frequently engage in war and what are they fighting for? Isn't it all about the Land? Kingdoms seeks to expand territories, nations frequently contend for the land and men are willing to lose their lives for the sake of the land. Yes, the issue of land had been behind most of the upheaval, the killing, the bargaining and the fighting in history. Undoubtedly men love their land, they would go the extra miles for the sake of the land. They understood that they were born for the land and they aspire to die for the land. It is the most honourable death when one dies fighting for the land, what better way to die than this. Yes, men know the importance of having a good land and when they find it they are ready to die just to have it and secure it.

Through salvation we were placed in the most perfect Land ever, a Land, even far greater than that which men in history have lose there lives for. If only we understand how precious our salvation is. If only we caught a sight of the exceeding greatness of the riches of the Land, we would be deeply in love with the Land. Oh, what would men give to have a land like our! It is what every heart desires - a land as complete and perfect as this. Men would boast of the beauty of their land, they would spend hours and hours just talking about how great their land is.

But here, we as Christians, placed in the greatest land ever, yet nobody is talking about it. You can't find a mouth that is just gushing out with sweet words about the beauty of the Land. It almost seem like nobody have notice how beautiful our Land is. It's like we have been walking in the Land with eyes fixed on somewhere else. We easily let go of the Land for something cheep, we are so eager to exchange it for something insignificant. We are so preoccupied with other things instead of the issue of the Land. We take pride in insignificant things.

Oh! That we may have Christians who are in love with the Land, who would stand at the roof top and tell the world how beautiful is the Land of salvation. Where are Christians who are intoxicated with the beauty and the sweetness of the Land. Can we find those who have grown an obsession for this great Land of salvation! Let us be ready to give anything for the sake of the Land. That we might be ready to forsake our lives, our comfort, our selfish desires, our ambitions and our occupation just to stand and fight for the Land. That we might love the Land even more than our lives.

BATTLE FOR THE LAND

The moment we decide to stand for the Land a battle line is drawn. The devil is against our living in the Land, he has set out to pull us away from the Land. There are a lot of things that tries to steal the Land from us, they would try to separate us from the Land. We can't ignore this battle, for we must fight for the Land. This is our home and this is our hope, nothing can snatch it away from us. We must have the volition, stand with resolve in our eyes and face this battle for the Land. It is for the sake of the Land that we fight, it is the love for the Land that won't let us give up even if it means fighting for the rest of our lives.

The battle may be fierce but our desire is stronger, for we must keep this Land. This Land belongs to us and we would never let it go. Many Christians are not aware of this battle to steal them away from the Land. We are not aware that there is a lot of contending against our Land, trying to stop us from going into the depth of the Land and enjoying the fullness of the Land. We are too blinded to see that the devil is slowly taking away that precious gift that God has given us. We just remain passive, allowing the devil to progress in his aim.

"And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." (Mat 11:12)
Yes there is violence in this Land and only those who are violence enough would secure a position in this Land. If you really love this Land and if you want to hold on to it then you must get violent and wild because we are at war and the Land is worth fighting for. Do you believe that this Land is worth fighting for? If so, then fight for it. Stop sleeping, stop being passive, wake up now and fight. Don't let the devil win, don't give the devil a chance, for this Land is your birth right and you must enjoy the fullness of it. Do this for the sake of the Father and He would help you in the battle. Show Him that you appreciate the Land He suffered and died to give you, fight for the Land. Hold on to it, don't let it go no matter what. Remember, you are destined to win this battle, all you have to do is get up and fight in the name of the Lord and victory would be yours.

THE LAWS AND THE LAND

In the natural world there are laws that govern nature, there is law of gravity, law of motion etc And man is able to advance and utilize nature because they were able to understand the laws of nature. Their knowledge of this laws allow them to be able to manipulate nature and get what they wanted. Ever since men had begin to discover laws and come up with a system to study these laws there have been a speedy development and change in the human society. In such a short period of time the human society has transformed drastically and this is all because of the discoveries of these laws.

For Christians to be able to harness the fullness of the Land we must discover the laws of the Land. I am not referring to commandments but certain principles found in Christ, spiritual principles of living in Christ. In the world there are not just laws that govern the natural world but there are also laws that govern the social world. And through out our days in school we were being introduced to these laws. A teacher in the Church is not one that teaches about the Bible or that systematically breaks down the Bible. But a teacher is one that teaches the laws of the Land, the principles that governs the Land, for it is only when we understand stand this that we can successfully live in the Land and enjoy the fullness of the Land.

As Christians we have transcended the laws of nature, we are no longer a slave to the heat of the sun and the coldness of winter. We are now subjected to the laws of the spirit, and the laws of the spirit is far greater than the laws of nature. We need to know the spiritual laws that now govern us. We have to understand how things are being governed here, we must be familiar with the system in order to flow with the system. We must learn to submit ourselves to the laws of the Land, for resisting it would only lead to deserter. We must understand that which constitute the Land. We must know the seasons, when rain falls and when dry season comes. We need to understand the Land better, to know the kind of things that would happen to us while we live in the Land. We must become acquainted with the Land. We can't live in the Land if we don't understand the laws of the Land.

THE LORD AND THE LAND

Every land is owned by a lord, the lord owns the land and everything in it. All that spring forth from the land belongs to th lord. We are born in this Land, we are a product of the Land and we are inseparable from the Land of salvation. As a result we are own by the Lord, yes we belong to Christ because Christ is the Lord. Our lives in this Land is a life for the Lord - living in this Land means living for the Lord. Our lives does not belong to us, it belongs to the Lord of the Land. In this Land we cannot do whatever we want, we can only do whatever the Lord wants. Everything we find in this Land belongs to the Lord. We are only enjoying from the riches of the Lord.

Living in this Land means submitting to the Lord, for the Lord would not have rebels in his Land. If you desire this Land and if you want to live in this Land then you must submit to the Lord of the Land. You cannot enjoy the riches of the Land until you give yourself to the Lord. In fact, the more you give yourself to the Lord, the more you have access to the riches of the Land. The Lord of the Land is a generous and selfless Lord, for he loves to adorn his people with the riches of the Land. All you have to do is submit to the Lord and he would pour out so much riches on you that you would cry out for grace to contain them. The wealth of the Lord is without measure and he is so willing to give us if only we could submit.

You must understand that you can't live in this Land without submitting to the Lord. You cannot enjoy salvation without submitting to the Lord. In fact, life in this Land would be miserable if we refuse to submit to the Lord of the Land. Salvation have become a burden for many Christians because of their refusal to give themselves completely to the Lord. They want to eat their cake and have it - they want to be save yet still live like carnal men, partaking in the things of the world. Such a Christian would only end up living a frustrated life. If you want salvation then give yourself completely to salvation and utterly submit to the Lord of the Land.

EXPLORING THE RICHES OF THE LAND

Okay, now we are in the Land what should we do? This is the Land we've desired and dream about. This is the Land that our God has graciously given us. And now we are here, now we have the Land what should we do? Should we just lay down and rest all day? Or may be we should hold parties every night and call them praise night? Rather, instead of parties let just pray, cry, shout and beg God to send manner from heaven? Or better still let leave the Land and go out to bring others into the Land? This seems like a better idea, but the problem with this is where are you going to bring the people into? Are you going to bring them into a land uncultivated and unexplored? Yes the Land is rich, it is fertile and have many potentials but it is not going to be useful to anybody if it is not utilize. What use is a fertile soil if nothing is planted there? What use is a gold mill when gold is not extracted from it?

So where are we going to bring the into? To an unutilized Land! How are they going to survive here and what use is the Land to them? They would end up hating the Land. Oh! No wonder many are falling away from Christianity - they are rejecting salvation. It is all because we have not explored the Land. We much explore the Land, harness the potency of the Land and extract the riches of the Land. In the natural, what make the modern world more better than the ancient times? It's because the modern people have learn to explore the land. Out of the land people invents all kind of things that makes life easier. But it was the same land that those ancient people have, they didn't know that they can create cars out of the land and extract oil to fuel it, they didn't know that these cars could make their journey faster. The ancient people never knew that all these wonderful technologies can be made out of this land. They didn't explore the land enough and as a result they never saw the glory of the land.

Oh! That the eyes of Christians might be open and they may see the need to explore the Land of their salvation. That we might harness the full potency of this Land. That we might extract the riches of this Land and beautify our cities with it. That we might equip our cities and communities with the fullness of the Land. And all those who come across the Land shall know that indeed this is a Land flowing with milk and honey. Yes, this is a Land to be desired and all people shall crave for the Land. We shall have no need to put so much resources trying to make people come into the Land, but people shall rush into the Land like gushing waters. Yes, all the nations of the world would be drawn by the glory of the Land.
