Mark 1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.
I see that I have not posted on this website for almost two years. I have just recently felt the urge to begin writing again. But I thought I should take a look at what I’ve already written. I find that I don’t really have anything new to say. The “gospel of Christ” which is “the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth” has been recorded as it has been revealed to me.
If this is indeed the truth, as I believe it is, and we know that truth (it has been revealed to us as truth), then I (and any readers that I have who has had this truth revealed to them) should be set free—as Jesus promised we would be. But, sadly, this has not been my experience.
And I have to ask why. I think perhaps it is because I have not fully known the meaning of “it is finished” and “time is fulfilled.” In order to enter and abide in the kingdom of God, we have to understand that God has taken full responsibility for our salvation and it was all completed or “finished” when God Himself (in the form of Jesus) took our humanity to the death and resurrected us into that realm known as the kingdom of God, the place we descended from when in Adam we believed ourselves to be separate from God and (having dominion) formed for ourselves a world of good and evil that was not ordained of God. Jesus returned us to the place from whence we came—the bosom of our Father.
We are already there (it is finished!). It doesn’t take any time for us to grow spiritually to get there (time is fulfilled!). But we have to become aware of this truth to experience the freedom that comes from knowing truth.
I wish to take a new direction on this website. Instead of saying the same thing in different ways for you to read, I want us to take a single facet of light and meditate on that.
Today I want you to think of your human life as a movie that has already been filmed. It is a movie recording your personal journey from the darkness of your humanity to the light that you knew in the beginning before the world (that we experience in our humanity) was founded. View each of your human experiences as merely a frame in this movie that is already completed. Don’t look at the individual frame; look at the finished product—a life described in Psalm 91, a life of righteousness, peace and joy, a life of rest for your soul.
