Under the law, the natural works mattered. We see a brief parallel by the Holy Spirit’s
revealing of then and now...
Luke 2:21 And when eight days were accomplished for the
circumcising of the child, his name was called Jesus, which was so named of the
angel before he was conceived in the womb. V22 And when the days of her
purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him
to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord; v23 (As it is written in the law of
the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the
Lord;)...
Under the law of the workings of the natural, a birthing of
the natural male was holy to the Lord, and had to go through more ordinances
for righteousness unto the Lord.... under the law of the workings of the
natural man in the flesh.
NOW... under the law of the Spirit of life in Christ
Jesus..... we MUST BE BORN AGAIN...FROM ABOVE...or can say must be BORN OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT....PRODUCED FORTH FROM THE WORD OF GOD WHICH IS SPIRIT AND IS
LIFE. Our Souls are the mother that the Holy
Father speaks forth His Word into so to impregnate us with His Son Jesus
Christ. The Father impregnates us with
His Word of Life and then Births us forth.
Begotten by the Word of God and His Holy Spirit. He circumcises us by that Word of Life and
cuts away the carnal spirit and nature, revealing the True Head of the Body who
is Jesus Christ and is Lord over the Body, who is His church, the church of the
firstborn. We are continually WASHED and
CLEANSED and CIRCUMCISED from faith to faith and glory to glory, until no
longer you but Christ manifested in and through you, and as you.
As a SOUL, the Lamb of God/Jesus Christ tasted death for us in
His Soul and Body….and the Father raised Him to life again, in Soul and Body, so
that we too can Live LIFE Eternally with the Lord, because of the Lamb’s blood
that was poured out for our eternal atonement for sin before God. Because of this, we in Spirit, Soul, and Body have
Eternal Life forever in Christ Jesus. For
His life which is Eternal abides in us. Our
King, Priest, Savior and Eternal Lamb is always before God on our behalf. His Blood upon us continuously Declares the
Righteousness of the Lamb for us, and declares we are become the Righteousness
of God before all, and in that, God is glorified in His Son.
It is through this Eternal Atonement that we can come boldly
to God, who is now our Father, because He has birthed us by His holy Spirit and
Word. God our Father Loved us sooooo
much that he sent His only begotten Son to taste death and sin for us and
destroyed the devil, and obtained Liberty for us from all corruption of the
flesh and soul… to bring us back to Him to be His sons and daughters sharing in
the inheritance of His only begotten firstborn Jesus Christ. What a Savior!
What an Inheritance! What a Father who
is the One and Only God!
NOW THE NEXT STEP...PRODUCING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT: HIS
CHARACTER, LIKENESS, IMAGE, MIND OF CHRIST.... For you are to be One with the
new man walking AFTER THE LAST ADAM, THE SECOND MAN WHO IS THE LORD FROM
HEAVEN, THE QUICKENING SPIRIT. And this
can ONLY be done by the Working of the Holy Spirit In you, revealing and
introducing to you the SON, JESUS CHRIST, God’s Word made flesh. And this is the Purpose of the Father in His
Son Jesus Christ, so to Bring Us Back To Him.
Reconciled to God through the Lamb and Son Jesus Christ by His Holy
Spirit. Redeemed by the Blood of the
Lamb, which is fully paid up. God is
Satisfied and at Peace with us who believe in His Son and have received Him and
His Love that He manifested through His Son for us.
1 Corinthians 15:49 And as we have borne the image of the
earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly....v51 Behold I show you a
mystery;...
We must be BORN AGAIN...by the Spirit of God. A Circumcising also but of the heart...a
cutting away of the carnal spirit/flesh, rather than the natural flesh. And this is only done by the Holy Spirit
WASHING you and CLEANSING you in HIS WORD that is Spirit and Life. JESUS CHRIST revealing Himself to you (John
14:21-23).
So like it was in the natural, having been done
first.... now in the Spirit of what is
TRUE and REAL... We Must be BIRTHED FORTH FROM THE FATHER WHO IS GOD, THE I AM
THAT I AM. AND WE MUST BE BORN BY THE
WORD OF GOD WHICH IS TRUTH. And this is
to take place In Your Soul.
1 Thessalonians 1:13 For this cause also thank we God
without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye hear of us, ye received it not as the word of
men, but as it is in truth, the word of
God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
Titus 3:4-5 But after that the kindness and love of God our
Saviour toward man appeared, Not by works of righteousness which we have done,
but according to his mercy he saved us, by
the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on
us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;...
1 Peter 1:22-23 v23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed,
but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
Ephesians 5:25-27
Husbands love your wives, even as Christ
loved the church, and gave himself for it;
That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the
word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having
spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
1 Corinthians 15:44-49,51 (this is deep and awesome! So much
to see here...)
Summarized....we shall not all sleep, but we shall be
changed... Awaken unto His Righteousness
and allow the Holy Spirit to clothe you in the Lord Jesus (internal and
external) for your spirit is His, your Soul is His, and your Body is His.
It is a working in you, but HE is POWER and is LOVE, and His
GRACE and RIGHTEOUSNESS will Sustain you.
There is no lack in you when Jesus Christ is your Savior. And there is no lack for you when He is your
Lord. He is Head of the church, His body
who we are.
HIS LOVE and GRACE is SUFFICIENT... not insufficient. The Ransom is paid in full. And His Account has your name on it. Be glad, and rejoice.... Go forward.... and
Continue to allow HIS DIVINE NATURE to come forth.
2 Peter 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and
precious promises: that by these ye might be PARTAKERS of the DIVINE NATURE,
having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
James 1:18 (18-21) *18 Of
his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of
firstfruits of his creatures.
Amen.
