To Love God and Love One Another …John 10:10
“If we have not found something worth dying for, we have not found anything worth living for, and if we haven’t found anything worth living for, we haven’t found anything worth dying for”…
Remember This! – Things are the way they are because of WHAT I HAVE CHOSEN TO BELIEVE AND THE CHOICES/DECISIONS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE. If I want something different, then I must be responsible for the freedom that I have been given to believe what God says is true and make new choices and decisions.
Isaiah 46:9-11…Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me…Declaring the end (of man) from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have not been done, Saying, ‘My purpose (for man) will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure’…
The Season of Transformation and Transition
- From Orphan to Son…
- From the Love of Self to the Love of God and One Another;
- From a Faulty Foundation to a Solid Foundation
- The Right Starting Place…Isaiah 58:12
Foundational Truth #1…All teaching must connect to the original intention of God/Father for man/son to become the expression of God…John 1:1, 14; 14:9
All teaching must connect to the original intention of God the Father for the Son to be/become the exact expression/representation of Himself…Hebrews 1:1-4; John 1:18; 14:9…
What was the purpose of God in establishing the Pre-Creation Covenant with man (Son)?
- God has designed a purpose for each person from before birth, choosing to make Himself visible uniquely through every person that chooses His way of life.
- Faith toward God begins with the understanding that there is a unique life for which each person was put on the earth.
- The invisible God always intended that He would be visible on earth through the Son/sons.
- The earth would come to know the Father by the Son/sons and would have access to the Father through the Son/sons.
- This relationship required that the Son/sons place His life entirely at the disposal of His Father, regardless of the demands upon that life.
- It required the Son’s/sons complete faith in the nature of His Father’s love.
- Faith is the belief that God will support the existence He chose to have through each person.
- Faith toward God is a way of life consistent with that belief, choosing the path God designed.
Foundational Truth #2…All teaching must connect to the intimate, responsive and dependent relationship that is the means by which man/son becomes the expression of God.
- Everything must begin with the Father and the Father/Son relationship restored… Christianity Redefined;
- Everything must move forward to the fulfillment of the pre-creation covenant and the culmination of an age.
Foundational Truth #3…The unconditional love of God for man/son IS the foundation for man’s/sons purpose in creation.
- Ephesians 3:16-19 AMP…May He grant you out of the riches of His glory, to be strengthened and spiritually energized with power through His Spirit in your inner self…indwelling your innermost being and personality so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your faith. And may you, having been deeply rooted and securely grounded in love, be fully capable of comprehending with all God’s people the width and length and height and depth of His love…fully experiencing that amazing, endless love;
- So that you may come to know practically, through personal experience] the love of Christ which far surpasses mere knowledge without experience;
- So that you may be filled up throughout your being to all the fullness of God, and;
- So that you may have the richest experience of God’s presence in your lives, completely filled and flooded with God Himself…
Vs. 20-21…Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do super-abundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us,21 to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen…
- 1 John 4:16-18 Passion Bible…We have come into an intimate experience with God’s love, and we trust in the love he has for us. God is love! Those who are living in love are living in God, and God lives (expresses and extends Himself) through them.
By living in God, love has been brought to its full expression in us so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgments because all that Jesus now is, so are we in this world. Love never brings fear, for fear is always related to punishment. But love’s perfection drives the fear of punishment far from our hearts.
Foundational Truth #4…The restoration of the Father/Son relationship is at the center of restoration of man to the original intentions of God and the re-establishment of the Kingdom of God/Heaven in the earth.
- The Father/Son relationship is the Alpha & Omega of Christianity and God the Father ruling and reigning through His Son/sons in the earth (Kingdom) through is chosen vessel…Sons
The kingdom of heaven on earth is the ONE HEAD, Christ Jesus, ruling in His ONE BODY of many members connected and functioning in perfect unity with the Head, ruling and reigning on earth…Romans 12:3-5; 1 Corinthians 12;
The great all-encompassing Kingdom of God is the rule of God’s love over all things and all beings on earth and in heaven.
- All life and all that exist from God fits into and under the great Master Plan of God’s kingdom rule and must come into accordance with His love and perfect order of alignment.
Foundational Truth #5… The end goal and result IS the complete re-establishment of the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. This is now and has always been the Master Plan of God.
- A Prophetic Word:
- There will arise a people in the earth who will passionately love their God and love one another in exactly the same way that He has loved us…John 13:34-35
- There will arise a people who will literally lay down their life for their friends; A people who will live to die so that others might live…John 15:12-16;
- There will arise a people who will be so transformed by the consuming fire of the Father’s love that they will be gloriously free to love their enemies even as He loved his enemies…Hebrews 12:29; Matthew 5:43-44.
These are and will be the people who have submitted themselves to live in the reality of true Sonship. These are the people who have been born again of an incorruptible seed and are partakers of His divine nature – Love; These are the people who have been crucified with Christ, nevertheless they live, and they live to glorify their God and Father and to reveal Him to the world that He so dearly loves; These are the people who have experienced the glorious freedom found in their intimate relationship with their Father and are becoming conformed to the image and likeness of the Son!
With much love and hope for our futures…Papa
