Subject: Are you quite sure about that? |
Bible Note: [But can you explain how building up one another helps us to know the mind of God. Is it by getting stronger that we get closer to God? And are you quite sure about that?] Quite contrary here. the closer you get to God the stronger you get. Philip. 2:5 (KJV) Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:.........the man. What "mind" did He have? He had His Father's.. John 5:19 (NASB-U) Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner. Now when Paul speaks this.... Romans 8:11 (NASB-U) "But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you." We can see the possibilities if we apply ourselves to "becoming a son". Once we are saved and justified we [are called to] move on to sonhip by the possess of Sanctification and that by abandoning our lives [flesh] at the cross and walking away from them. Jesus did that...as a Son. If we consider ourselves sons and daughters, should we expect less as a requirement from OUR Father. |
