MYSTERY

Surely you have heard about

the administration of God’s

grace that was given to me

for you, that is, the  mystery

made known to me by revelation,

as I have already written briefly.

In reading this, then, you will be

able to understand my insight into

the mystery of Christ, which was not

made known to men in other generations

as it has now been revealed by the Spirit

to God’s holy apostles and prophets.

This mystery is that through the gospel

(Best News Ever) the Gentiles are heirs

together with Israel, members together

of the one body, and sharers together

in the promise in Christ Jesus.

(Ephesians 3.2-6).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

BETTER

I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,

the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit

of wisdom and revelation,

so that you may know Him better.

(Ephesians 1.17).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

Intellectually Stimulating and Rewarding Spiritual Rebirth

Led by the Spirit, we understand that we are now sons of God.

This is our new identity when we are in communion with Jesus the Christ.

We know He became one of us and did not count equality with

God something to hold on and grasp to, but He emptied Himself

of His divine privileges and prerogatives. This is known as Kenosis.

He came to identify with humanity as a human, as a servant and

experienced the death on the cross by being identified as a criminal.

When we embrace Him as our Lord and Savior we take on His identity

and are in union with Him. We then have His thought … Continue Reading
