1 Corinthians 15:54-57 ...Death is swallowed up in victory.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave,
where is thy victory?
The sting of death is sin; and the
strength of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God which giveth us
the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
So in the Forgiveness of sin you can
now live victoriously. The Forgiveness
of sin which comes in the blessing of Jesus Christ, who is now appearing in
your Soul as Lord and Savior, is standing in you as Your STRENGTH. So where once sin had strength because of the
law, it now is replaced by the Grace of God, which is in the new law of the
Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus.... who is Now In You.
And Christ is in you to be your Hope
of Glory. Colossians 1:26-27 that tells
us Christ is in us and has apprehended us to bring us into our Promised
land. Our promised land is Eternal
Life... and that is Jesus Christ.
Oh the place that has been prepared
for us is ready for us to Now abide In Him.
The debt of sin is death, and now that
debt has been fully paid through and by Jesus Christ. In His Blood that was shed on the cross for
us, we by faith Receive this wonderful Gift of His Life sustaining us in all
things. Whether in earth or in heaven,
Christ rules over all.
Now all of our being in earth (natural)
and in heaven (spirit) is being subdued (reconciled, redeemed) a little at a
time unto the Lord. Another way to say
it is that the Holy Spirit has now sealed you as belonging to the Lord. But he has joined with you in your filth of
the flesh, yet His righteousness sanctifies you completely. But in Ephesians 5:26-27 the Lord having
joined unto you, is now washing you by the water that is His Word and is making
Himself known or manifest to and in you.
So that it is no longer you but Christ that lives, but yet, now, you are
one, having been married to Him and have taken His name and identity and
character: His Mind operates in you, instead of the carnal mind.
Ephesians 5:26-27
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.
John 14:20-23
v20 At that day ye shall know that I
am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
v21 He that hath my commandments, and
keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of
my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
v23 Jesus answered and said unto him,
If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we
will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Gal 4:19
My little children, of whom I travail
in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
Gal 2:20
I am crucified with Christ:
nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life
which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved
me, and gave himself for me.
We are to Forgive one another. To do that means action on both or all
parties involved. Forgiving another is
to not hold them in that fault or sin no matter what. When we forgive one another, we release each
other from the offense done. You don’t
hold them any more liable for it. You
allow healing to come in. And if they do
it again, forgive again. Yet, the one
that is in a continual offensive behavior needs to stop that behavior and take
on the mind of Christ. If they haven’t
the relationship with the Lord to be changed, then we sometimes have to
disconnect from them, but continue to pray for them as the Lord instructs. You do not have to stay in harms way
ever. Always counsel with the Lord and
the Shepherd he has placed with you for your protection. There is so much more that could be said
here, but trust the Lord to protect and stay out of harms way. Walk in God’s love towards you and have no
fellowship with darkness. Keep the peace
as much as possible. God will direct
you.
Forgiven means many things. But to sum it up, Forgiven means to finally
be at Home with your Real Family and Father.
Free from the prison of sin and death.
Free from the spirit that wants to kill, steal, and destroy you.
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lamb of God
that is abiding in us and us in Him!
Hallelujah!! To all that have ears to hear and eyes to see
the wonders and glory and blessings of His Life now ours!!!
And to all that need ears to hear and
eyes to see... So be it unto them, Oh Father, So be for them too!
Amen.
