Since the name of God is “I,” and since that is my name also, and since God gave His offspring dominion over all the rest of creation (Genesis 1:26), every time I say the word “I,” I am speaking as God; and whatever I say accomplishes that which I have spoken and does not return unto me void (Isaiah 55:11).
Perfect in One: Growing up into Christ
I wish to read three scriptures, one from Jesus and two from Paul. I want you to pay particular attention to the words “wisdom,” “perfect,” “glory,” “hidden” and “mystery.”
From the Beginning
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God
The Bible opens with these words. And the apostle John reiterates them in his gospel:
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
What Qualifies Us for “Heaven”?
Paul tells us it is our Father, and Him alone, that makes it possible for us to enjoy the “life abundant” that Jesus said He came to give us.
Colossians 1:12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath [past tense, not when we say or do something] made us meet [2427. ἱκανόω hikanoo, hik-an-o´-o; from 2425; to enable, i.e. qualify: — make able (meet]. to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
What Do I See?
My consciousness is what I am aware of, what I see.
And that is precisely what I experience. I can have either a human consciousness or a God consciousness—coming either from the carnal mind (which is no mind at all, but rather false beliefs in good and evil and in separation from God) or the Christ mind (which everyone has but may not be aware of). In the Christ mind is the expectation of only that which is harmonious and wonderful. Paul calls it the fruit of the Spirit:
Magnify the Lord
The Trinity that Is You
This is in no way meant to be a doctrinal treatise on the meaning of the trinity (which, by the way, is never mentioned in the Bible, just in theological literature about the Bible), but rather a way of looking at ourselves in relation to God. When not capitalized, the word trinity
means a group of three.
Love Never Fails
I awakened this morning to words of freedom. I understood that to live in the kingdom of heaven we have to be free ourselves and set everyone else free. That is the love that never fails 1Corinthians 13:8. As long as there is condemnation for myself or for another, I am not free and I cannot love.
In the Image and Likeness
Genesis 1:26-28 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
The Dream (Part 1)
I awakened this morning at 6:00 from a very vivid dream wherein I was most apprehensive about a play that I was about to perform in but for which I was not prepared. I didn’t know my lines at all. It was certainly going to be disastrous. Of course I was immensely relieved when I awakened and recognized that it was only a dream and had no reality. I knew inside that what I had just experienced had spiritual significance. So I got out of bed and lay down under an infrared dome to listen. I’ve had many revelations while lying under that dome, including the one contained in the contemplation Ten Righteous Men.
