“Though he was a Son, yet learned he obedience…”

This week was our opportunity to learn who we are in Christ as a new creation, or another person to our heavenly Father.  He calls us His Sons. Yet, each of us who are birthed by Him were given a birth-right to be called “the Son” of God!  This is more than just a name change. It is an exchange of identity!  So, what is it that we’ve learned? We have learned that union is where salvation begins.  Our union in Christ is the foundation which established our birthright and leads to oneness in Christ.  It is only in the revelation of oneness that our identity as “the Son of God” is known and understood and lived.  Without the revelation of this mystery no one can live as the Son! Here, in this new identity of the Son is where we learn the Father!  It is the Father who reveals the image of the Son. He declared and set our conformity into the image of the Son, His Son, before creation of anything!

 Rom 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many               brethren. 

       2Co 3:18 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.

1Co 15:49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

     Jhn 5:26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

Have we or are we learning the mystery of Sonship?  If we are learning Sonship then conformity is at work yielding it’s fruit of the image of the Son and our true identity!  Let’s talk about it…

Also, this week in fellowship we are being joined by four guest.  We will have two from overseas and two from here in the US.  This will be our first attempt with our new system to have others join us live on the broadcast.  We are trusting our Father to work it all out.  Technology is great but can have it’s issues.  So, please pray for this new adventure in Sunday Fellowship.
