Once for All Forgiveness

Once for All Forgiveness - Part 2

A chair was a forbidden piece of furniture inside the Jewish tabernacle and later in the temple. Why? Imagine for a moment that you’re an average citizen of Israel. You enter the temple on the Day of Atonement and are greeted by a priest lounging in

a La-Z-Boy.

What would this communicate to you? He must have nothing left to do! To avoid this false impression, God didn’t allow such a scene to take place. He forbade Levitical priests to sit down on the job, so that the image of unfinished business would be imprinted on their consciences.

Hebrews contrasts the constant standing and ongoing religious performances of Old priests with our seated High Priest, who will never again offer another sacrifice for sins:

“Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when this priest [Jesus] had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God.” — Hebrews 10:11–12

“After [Jesus] had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” — Hebrews 1:3

Grasping this truth can revolutionize our understanding of how pure and clean we are before God. We’re invited to recognize our High Priest as seated at the right hand of the Father, with nothing left to do about our sins. The work is completed, and we’re now forgiven for all time.

Our past, present, and future sins were dealt with simultaneously through the cross. God didn’t discriminate with regard to time of occurrence. All of our sins were in the future when Jesus died. He looked down the entire timeline of human existence and took away all sins.

Whether the sins occurred two thousand years before or after the cross made no difference. When Jesus finished wiping out all record of our sins, he took a seat. And he has been relaxing at God’s right hand ever since.

What position are you in with regard to your sins? Are you standing up, running around, and trying to make up for them?

Attempting to get forgiven, to get cleansed?

Or are you seated with Jesus Christ in a relaxed position? Do you realize that your Savior has taken them away once and for all?

Please weigh every word prayerfully and test it against Scripture (1 Thessalonians 5:21). The Holy Spirit will confirm what is from the Lord.

Christ is your Reflection.

John 4:17 By living In God, love has been brought to its full expression in us, so that we may fearlessly face the day of judgement, because all that Jesus now is, so are We in this World ( TPT ). Here the scriptures says " As Jesus is now, so we are ". This scripture is talking about the present, not the future nor the past. From the decades, the church is believing the above verse in wrong perspective. It made people to believe that as Jesus struggled with the world situation, it's mandatory for us to be struggled. But the scripture is all about present. In other words " NOW ". Now the scripture says As he is - Let me pose a question to you. Where is Jesus now? He is in us. At the same time, he is seated at the right hand side of the Father and made us to seat with him ( Ephesians: 2:6 Kjv ). In the present world, 70% of preaching is about devil, 15% about forefa...

His LOVE

The Lost Coin- Today we are gaining knowledge from the eminent parable " The Lost Coin" (Luke 15:8-10 Kjv). In the above context, the Bible referred to a "Value" . The Bible says that, the women had 10 coins with her and unfortunately she lost one coin. To regain that coin, that women started seeking all around. If it was a night, Bible says, she would have definitely light a lamp and searched for it. Why that lady kept all her effort to regain that coin? Its because, the coin has a " value" . With that coin she can comfort herself, can buy groceries, can lend to someone. If there is no value to that coin, she would have neglect that coin and would had a nap. Similarly, even we too have a "value". The bible says that we are more greater and valuable than angels because, Jesus gave us the authority of son-ship ( Romans 8:15 Kjv). Our value is not live by t...

Identity in CHRIST - Part 1(The Law of Identity)

The Law of Identity The teaching of Identity is the legal side of our Redemption. It unveils to us what GOD did in CHRIST for us, from the time He went to the Cross, until He sat down on the right hand of the FATHER. The vital side of Redemption is what the Holy Spirit, through the WORD, is doing in us now. Several times Paul uses the preposition "with" in connection with His Substitutionary teaching. In Gal. 2:20 it says like this "I have been crucified WITH CHRIST." Then he tells us that "lie died WITH CHRIST," that "he was buried WITH CHRIST." This gives us the key that unlocks the great teachings of Identity. CHRIST became one with us in sin, that we might become one with HIM in Righteousness. HE became as we were, to the end that we might be as HE is now. HE became one with us in death, that we might become one with HIM in life. There is a two-fold oneness: first HIS oneness with our sin on the cross; second, our oneness with HIM in Hi...
