STRIP

Strip yourselves of your former nature

which characterized your previous

manner of life and becomes corrupt

through lusts and desires that spring

from delusion;

And be constantly renewed in the

spirit of your mind,

And put on the new nature created

in God’s image, in true righteousness

and holiness.

Therefore, rejecting all falsity and being

done now with it, let everyone express

the truth with his neighbor, for we are

all parts of one body and members of

one another.

When angry, do not sin; do not ever let

your fury last until the sun goes down.

Leave no room or foothold for the devil.

Let the thief steal no more, but rather let

him be industrious, making an … Continue Reading

WHO

The spiritual man can read the meaning of

everything, but no one can properly discern

him.

For who has known the mind of the Lord so as

to guide Him? But we have the mind of Christ

and do hold the thoughts of His heart.

(I. Corinthians 2.16).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

PRECIOUS

As you come to Him, the living Stone

– rejected by men but chosen by God

and precious to Him- you also, like

living stones, are being built into a spiritual

house to be a holy priesthood, offering

spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God

through Jesus Christ. For in Scripture it says:

“See, I lay a stone in Zion,

a chosen and precious cornerstone,

and the one who trusts in Him

will never be put to shame.”

Now to you who believe, this stone is precious.

But to those who do not believe,

“The stone the builders rejected has

become the capstone,”

“A stone that causes men to stumble

and a rock that makes them fall.”

They stumble … Continue Reading

THE SPIRITUAL

If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.

So it is written: “The first man became s living being”,

the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.

The spiritual did not come first, but the natural and after

that the spiritual. The first man was of the dust of the earth,

the second man from heaven.

As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and

as is the man from heaven, so also are those who are of heaven.

And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall

we bear the likeness of the man from heaven.

(I. Corinthians … Continue Reading

AWAY

But now put away and rid yourselves completely of all these

things: anger,rage,bad feelings toward others, curses and slander.

and foulmouthed abuse and shameful utterances from your lips!

Do not lie to one another, for you have stripped off the old self

with its evil practices,

And have clothed yourselves with the new (spiritual self), which is

ever in the process of being renewed into fuller and more perfect

knowledge, after the image of Him Who created it.

(Colossians 3.8-10).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

“As He passed along, He noticed a man blind from his birth.

His disciples asked Him, Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his

parents, that he should be born blind?

Jesus answered, It was not that this man or his parents sinned,

but he was born blind in order that the workings of God should

be manifested (displayed and illustrated) in him.

We must work the works of Him Who sent Me and be busy with

His business while it is daylight; night is coming on when no man

can work.

As long as I am in the world, I am the world’s Light.

When He had said this, He … Continue Reading

EXPANDED GLORY

“Whom He called, them He also justified: and whom He justified

them He also glorified.”

God’s love toward mankind is expressed existentially forever

in Christ Jesus, His glory is thus expanded exponentially.

This is in His knowledge, beyond time and space, in the

divine spiritual reality. Because God is Spirit and Truth, His

calling and glory is also spiritual. Those who are truly in the

divine spiritual reality know they are forgiven by grace through

faith in Christ Jesus and reconciled as sons of God.

Justified, saved, redeemed and adopted free to love and live in

Him and though Him we always depend on Him.

RICH GIFT

RICH GIFT

There is one body and one Spirit, just as there is also

one hope that belongs to the calling you received.

There is one Lord, one faith one baptism, One God

the Father of us all, Who is above all, Sovereign over

all, pervading all and living in us all.

Yet grace (God’s unmerited favor) was given to each

of us individually (not indiscriminately, but in different

ways) in proportion to the measure of Christ’s rich and

bounteous gift. Therefore it is said, When He ascended on

high, He led captivity captive (He led a train of vanquished

foes) and he bestowed gifts on men.(Ephesians 4.4-8).
