GROW IN GRACE 3

GROW IN GRACE,

This is the third part of our grow in grace series


After salvation, the next thing is Growing into maturity or reality of what saves you and that you are saved for... Not rapture or death...

If making heaven was next after salvation, you ought to have died the day you Believed... (Or Don't you think that would have gotten God fulfilled faster if that was the case?)

If all we have access to in this world is HOPE for something that we can't get now, then we are of all men most miserable

What is it that God has that he can't afford to give us now?

Romans 8:32
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

1 Corinthians 13:11-12
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

Now this is another scripture that they use to advocate their after the rapture theology, adulterating the word of God to suit their ignorance of the truth and of the power of God. But we are not of them 2cor.2:17

Paul said when He was a Child... Then he talked about when he became a man... So if he didn't become a man after rapture, He can't be meaning that he will know 'himself' as he is known after rapture... He didn't even add after rapture to it... So where did the idea that after rapture we shall have perfect knowledge comes from?... It is from satan... We ought to have perfect knowledge now... And God's people still perish because of lack of perfect knowledge... There is NOTHING there is to Know that you cannot know NOW

He said THEN... I shall know as I am known... Please why must your own knowing be after rapture?... Ehen?

God knows you as His righteousness, why must you wait till after rapture to know this truth and literally manifest it? Why? Tell me I want to hear...

He said THEN I shall know... The 'THEN' is when He grows up spiritually and stop doing things like a baby Christian...

A baby Christians has only very little difference between them and an unsaved man, in fact it takes the gift of discernment to know their difference... They could still think and act exactly the same stuffs...

GROW up!!!! Grow..!!!!!!!!!!! I say again Grow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't wait for rapture, Grow

Philippians 3:20-21
For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

Can you see something?
The word "FOR" the Lord Jesus there should have been translated as "UNTO"...

We as believers DO NOT look for Jesus, Jesus is not missing... Rather We look unto Him, (looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of your faith) and as we do, we are being changed from glory to glory, our Vile body is being metamorphosed my the working of His Glorious power like unto His Glorious Body, it is then we will say death has been swallowed Up in victory... It is then sickness will no longer exist in our world. Our mortal body is being quickened so that it will stop being mortal...

Romans 8:11
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.

Quicken is same as Give-Life-to

This makes me pray, this makes me meditate, this makes me cry with so strong a passion, I want to Know Him, I want to know the power that was so mighty as to raise Him out of death all by itself, I want know the fellowship of His suffering for me, I want to enjoy all that he suffered to get for me, I want to become regulated and conformed to the version of His death and the product of his resurrection, I want to attain all that he has attained for me... Not after rapture, it makes no uniqueness then if at all... The world which is currently encroached with corruption eagerly waits for me to manifest incorruption to it now...

Oh my... Thank God I can behold Him with unveiled face... Oh I am being changed... This body that I wear is made alive by the word of God, not by blood...

It is no more vile, it is no more mortal... It has taken so much Life, it is no more natural, it has Been affected by the quality of life that's in my spirit...

Don't put a new wine in an Old wine skin... The Holy spirit in me is the NEW WINE, and my once upon a time mortal body is the new wine skin... If it can't be made new, the power that broke Jesus through the grave would have torn whatever is mortal in it apart...

The wine is so new, No old wine skin can Hold it...It will tear... No mortality can carry God's power and not experience the Power.

1thess.5:23 says my Body is SEALED or PRESERVED by the spirit, Not only my soul, Not only my spirit But my body also...

This is Growth...

Colossians 2:6-7
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

How did you received Jesus the Lord? You should have received Him as someone who died and resurrected again by the working of God's mighty power... So walk ye in him that way, Live as resurrected, walk in Him, and in the power of His resurrection, Be established in the word of God... Grow up!

After paul has looked deep into the wealth of the riches of God's inheritance for the saints, He couldn't stop praying for the believers... He saw How deep we could express this divine power and Nature that the Gospel has made available to us
