New Recruits
The two basics for all recruits
1. Jesus is the recruiter: "You didn’t choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit. . ." John 15.16, New Living Translation
Jesus himself owns and operates the People of the Future (POTF) campaign team; we don't. You never report to us. There is no SYNC membership. We don't even have a DONATE button. We are just one tiny player in the global campaign run by Jesus the "Messiah" (the World-Changer, the Future-Bringer).
Jesus came to earth to recruit POTF, and he was killed because he did that so effectively. His popular movement scared the authorities to death, so they executed him to stop it.
But they failed because he did not stay dead. God raised him back to life so he could keep recruiting, and he is still at it. He is the One who will be talking to you through his Spirit, giving you your assignments as you turn into a Person of the Future.
2. Recruits are "in" Jesus. "The secret is simply this: Christ in you! Yes, Christ in you, bringing with him the hope of all glorious things to come" (Colossians 1.27).
We are not just joining his cause and "hoping" for a great future. He is moving into us by his Spirit. He is already in us and we are in him.
That's how it will be in the future, and that's what we are already discovering as People of the Future. We live under the transforming influence of the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Messianic Future.

When you finish your start-up option
In 1-5 weeks when you finish your start-up option, discuss with your recruiter what part of the SYNC site to explore next. If you have lost touch with your recruiter, here are some suggestions for exploring on your own, depending on your preferred style of exploration.
