Perfect means Complete, or Mature
Maturity is Not Old Age
Some people grow old but never mature.
Some people become mature before they
are old.
Maturity is a transformation of the
mind.
Old Age is a transformation of the
physical body.
Putting off the ‘old’ is not putting
off your body, it is the Receiving of the Identity and person of Jesus
Christ. Read on to understand more.
Growing up in Christ isn’t about
growing old in Christ. It’s about having
our mind renewed by the Holy Spirit washing and cleansing us by Jesus Christ,
which is the Water and Blood… justifying and sanctifying us. It is Receiving Him, His Mind and being
changed, born again in His character & divine nature which means our behavior
will change. We start to walk and begin
producing the Lord’s full character in all that we do.
1 Corinthians 13:10-13 But when that
which is perfect is come, then
that which is in part shall be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spake as a
child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man,
I put away childish things. 12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part;
but then shall I know even as also I
am known. 13 And now abideth faith,
hope, charity , these three; but the greatest of these is charity .
All of 1 Corinthians 13 reveals true
Fruit of the Mature One. So when that
Perfect One, or could say Complete One, or Mature One is Come… Revealed IN Your
SOUL, then the old nature will fall away.
Hear the word of the Lord. A change in identity… the second man, the
quickening spirit, the Lord from heaven, Eternal Life begins to Appear in
this World … through HIS BODY … To those that have ears to hear, hear what
the Lord is saying….
It is time to let the Mature One, the
Perfect One Appear…
Ephesians 4:11-16
11 And he gave some, apostles; and
some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the
work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the
faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the
measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 That we henceforth be no more children,
tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the
sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking
the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the
head, even Christ: 16 From whom the
whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint
supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part,
maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
Galatians 5:19-26
19 Now the works of the flesh are
manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness,
lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft,
hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness,
revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told
you in time past, that they which do such
things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is
love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there
is no law. 24 And they that are Christ's
have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk
in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory,
provoking one another, envying one another.
Gal 6:1-2 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault,
ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness;
considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye one another's
burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
Grace and Mercy abounding in Faith and
Hope as we all continue this journey – out of the mind of death/sin (the old
law) and into the mind of Eternal Life and Righteousness (Jesus Christ – the
New Law). A transformation of character
due to the Appearing of the Mature & Complete & Perfect One In Your
Soul.
Let the FRUIT of that One Come Forth.
Amen.
