As we discussed in last weeks fellowship:  

Let’s take a close look at how the Son of God became the Son of man with a body of flesh and blood. But it was only for a season! These are just a few of the verses in which God, the Holy Spirit will show us why Jesus was given a unique body of sin but never had a sinning body!

The Prophesy

Who we are was decided before the foundation of the world. The bodies we would live in now and when we get to the Father’s house were also a part of that decision. We didn’t get to have a decision with our first body, but we do have a say in the next one! This is a God idea and extends back before the world was. It all has to do with a seed. Whose seed? Who comes forth? A simple DNA test can provide an answer to the question. If DNA testing were available in Jesus’ day, what would it have revealed about Him? What would just one drop of His blood would unfolded about His true blood line? Let’s do a DNA test on Jesus and see just what body He lived in for those 33 years. The blood line comes from the seed, the source of our DNA. What exactly does that mean?

– Biology tells us that every human being has 23 pairs of chromosomes or 46 total. This is our biological, physiological, and psychological make up-our complete genetic profile or DNA. This defines our flesh & blood identity. The road map of who we are in the flesh!

– These 23 allow us to function and live out who we are as humans.

– There is one part of our cellular make up not in pairs; the male seed/sperm and female seed/ovum. This allows us to give or share our genetic history and identity.

– Each seed or ovum contains 23 chromosomes half of what is needed for human life.

– When they join in union we have 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs, new human life.

– This process of conception was preordained for us to be fruitful and multiply.

– God used this same process Himself.

The Promise “Furthermore I tell thee that the LORD will build thee an house. And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go [to be] with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom. He shall build me an house, and I will stablish his throne for ever. I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took [it] from [him] that was before thee:” 1Chron1:10-13

So, what does all this have to do with us? Let’s press toward the mark!

Love in Christ!

Greeting Everyone,

Happy Thanksgiving! Many of us will be celebrating Thanksgiving this week. This will be the beginning of the holiday season Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year! Wow, this year has truly come and gone! 2015 has been a here today and gone tomorrow year. Our opportunity to learn to live Christ as the Sons of God for this year is coming to a rapid close. But with every remaining day our Father will continue to reveal who He is as our Father and who we are in Christ as His Sons! The last several weeks we have talked about our identity in Christ spiritually and not our identity in the outer man. As I meditated on this I was reminded of Jesus and the body Mary gave Him. You know the Son of God living in a body of sin but not having a sinning body. This is how He became the Son of Man! Let’s take a real close look at this simple and powerful truth to see where you and I fit into this mystery. We trust God, the Holy Spirit, our teacher will give to each of you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. That the eyes of your understanding maybe being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling which has purposed in Himself. The purpose which we now possess if Christ is in us. Our new identity is not flesh and blood. But we still live in this flesh and blood body of sin. Yet it does not have to be a sinning body. That is the difference with us being the Son of God or the son of man.  

Paul tells us in Phl 2:6-8-

“Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.”   

While the writer of Hebrews said 

“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.” Heb 2:14. So, let’s see what the Spirit is saying to us as Sons of a Father who has spared no cost! Those who have ears to hear let them hear what the Spirit is saying!  

Love in Christ!

Greeting Beloved!

We have a great need for divine revelation in the body of Christ today.  As a matter of fact everyone living in the world today needs a divine revelation of Christ to get free of fear!  We are going to talk about this matter today.

Desensitization to the person of Christ is rampant throughout humankind! As we have shared with you before its effect is similar to carbon monoxide gas. You cannot see it, feel it, smell it, taste it or touch it. We involuntarily respond to its presence. Without the use of a carbon monoxide detector we would be overcome with its lethal effects and die. Spiritually God has provided us a detector for the process of desensitization to the person of Christ. Our detector for this enemy is divine revelation by God, the Holy Spirit. He is our teacher, revealer of all things that pertain to the person of Christ. What is revelation? And where does it come from?

Revelation is simply revealed knowledge. If there is something you and I do not know, or do not understand, we lack revelation. The Greek definition means;

1. laying bare, making naked
2. a disclosure of truth, instruction
   1. concerning things before unknown
   2. used of events by which things or states or persons hitherto withdrawn from view are made visible to all
3. manifestation, appearance

The word revelation is used 18 times in the Bible.  Thirteen of those time were used in Paul’s epistles.  Let’s look at a few of these verses.

It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. 2Co 12:1

Now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, Rom 16:25

For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught [it], but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. Gal 1:12

And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain. Gal 2:2

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: Eph 1:17 KJV] 17

How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Eph 3:3

Well let’s talk about it…..

Love in Christ

Greetings Everyone,

Wow, this year has come and is almost gone! Thanksgiving is only 18 days away. And then the craziness really picks up speed. We trust all is well with each of you! We pray for our Father to lead and reveal the fullness of purpose, intent and plan for all of us in the coming and final days of 2015. That we will all live and walk in victory of Sonship! As you can see our message today is on the victory in losing you. 

All of humankind has been D.U.I.! No not driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. But desensitized under the illusion of fear. The vast majority of us at one time or another are sensitized to who we are in biological birth. For many this is the sum total of all they are and sadly all they will ever be! And even when one has seen the need to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior (which is the most common confession) or profess being born-again, far, far too many of these still cling strongly to the identity of biological birth as their life while the person of Christ is added to that identity. Being desensitized to the person of Christ under the illusion of fear, many cannot and will not receive they are no longer the person they were. The process of desensitization denies believers the victory of losing themselves (you) by the illusion. They simply never become (to themselves) new. They never come to see themselves as another person. They never desire to know who they are outside of biological identity. This illusion, deception, captivity and delusional mind set keeps them trying to save the old man or improving his ways or make better or different. Or something far worse, they want to take him (the old man) to heaven as themselves! Wow! One day while Jesus was speaking in one place to his disciples and in another place to the Pharisees and the disciples he said this;

“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.” Mat 16:24-25

  Let’s talk about! Seeya in fellowship.

Love in Christ!
