Eternal Life Now

Our Goal or Focus is not Heaven…  Rather….

Our Focus is Eternal Life.

John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

And in John 17:22-23 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
V23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Then in v24 Jesus praying to the Father desires for us to be with him where He is…. Father, I will that they also, who thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

And then in v26 Jesus prays…And I have declared unto them they name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me….may be in them,…. And I in them.

Wow.  Yes and Amen.  Christ Jesus is abiding in us, along with the Father for they are One Spirit.  Now this Holy Spirit in us is causing us to Know Him the only true God, and Jesus Christ.

Yet we are in the Earth, and in Heaven… if so be that the Holy Spirit is in us.  And the kingdom of God is in the Holy Spirit so we have the kingdom of God in us… and we are pressing into the kingdom of God.

Luke 17:20-21 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! For, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Hebrews 12:28-29 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire.

So knowing by the Holy Spirit that the kingdom of God is come then we know that Jesus is in the kingdom of God also, and seated on the right hand of the Father in the kingdom of God. 

Ephesians 2:4-10 declares that We are seated with Jesus in heavenly places with him…..
Ephesians 2:4-10  But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

So that they that have gone on with the Lord and us who are here in earth and are alive in Christ Jesus can be TOGETHER IN CHRIST JESUS.  All heaven AND Earth are reconciled to the Father through Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit.

We all have access by that one Spirit unto the Father, through the Son Jesus Christ.

So our Focus or Goal is not getting into heaven… but rather Abiding In Christ Jesus, being Reconciled to the Father through the Son Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit abiding in us, Now.

Manifestation of the sons of God. 

The Kingdom of God is come…. In the Holy Spirit in Us.  The sons of God are manifesting in the Earth and in Heaven…. All Things In Christ Jesus.  Reconciled and Redeemed by the Blood and Body of the Lamb of God. Washed in the Word of God that was made flesh and dwelled among us, full of grace and truth.  Our Righteous Father’s Good Will and Good Pleasure is available for all souls and for our bodies to reap of.  For all souls are His, and all flesh is His.

Ephesians 1:9-12 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:
V10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him:
V11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
V12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
V13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
V14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Now that you are sealed of the Holy Spirit, and Christ Jesus dwells in you and the Father in Christ Jesus in you, then you can Rest in His Assurance and Grace that he will continue revealing Himself to you as He promised He would, so that you may know Him and Know the Father… Our Eternal Life.  A continual working of the Father through His Son by His Holy Spirit redeeming every bit of our being in Himself, until all is subdued unto Him.

We are raised up with the Lord Jesus now, and are reconciled to the Father now, yet we may find not everything of our own self fully manifesting the Son now…. But We Do See Jesus… (Hebrews 2:9, 1 Cor 15:23-28)

Hebrews 2:9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

Colossians 3:3-4,10 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. …
And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

2 Corinthians 3:16-18 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away. Now the Lord is that Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

So we continue to allow the Holy Spirit to reveal the Son to us and as this is daily happening we are transformed… changed at the sound of the Trumpet…we who were dead are made alive when we hear His Voice.  The Lord is that Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

To KNOW HIM is to PRODUCE AFTER HIS SEED.

Romans 8:9-11 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

Jesus tasted death for all…. So now you can LIVE LIFE that is Eternal.  More Abundantly. Now.  And as you do, the creature is also delivered from the bondage of corruption and released into the glorious liberty of the children of God (Romans 8:21).

As the Father draws each of us to the Son, then the Holy Spirit quickens us as He causes a revealing (revelation/awakening) of who the Son is.  Jesus appears within us and makes himself known to us and we behold Him and are changed into the same image. (2 Corinthians 3:18)

John 14:20-21 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.  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.

Then in verse 22-23 Judas (not Iscariot) asks how are you going to manifest to us and not to the world?  Jesus answers…v23…If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

Wow.!.  So True.  The Father and Son in us, each of us who have received the Son and sealed in the promise of the Father of His Spirit.

So the Holy Spirit in us is the Lord.  Where He is there is liberty.  He guides us into all truth.  Instructs us and protects us and makes Known to us of the Father and Son Jesus the Christ, Our Lord and Eternal Lamb who takes away all sin.  Grace and Truth is here for us. The Resurrection and Life is here.  The Lamb and Blood speak and declare His Righteousness on our behalf.  And so much more…We are One with the Lord.

So the Holy Spirit speaks in our hearts and the Seed of God is planted in our minds our hearts and our souls and begins to produce after God’s Word and Witness of His Son in our spirit, soul, and body. (1 Peter 1:23, James 1:18, John 3:3-8), and the sons of God come forth.

So set your heart on the Lord and allow the Holy Spirit to birth forth the Son in and through you; for the creature of God is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God.

And this can only come by Knowing the one true God, and Lord Jesus Christ who is Eternal Life.

Amen.
