BEHOLDING IS BECOMING (PART-2)

Discovering Eden Within

What was lost in the Garden has been restored in CHRIST, all of it. Although the fullness of the restoration process of all things back to CHRIST is ongoing, the price needed for its fulfillment had been paid in full. The moment JESUS shouted on the Cross, “IT IS FINISHED!”, those words resonated throughout all of eternity. It was sealed in Heaven forever. The way has been established, the price paid, mankind can now be reconciled with a HOLY GOD. In CHRIST we are accepted, affirmed, loved, and restored completely back to the Father’s embrace. Once more, coming face-to-face with GOD is possible through JESUS and by the leading of the HOLY SPIRIT Who Himself takes residence in us. This is amazing! This is the Good News of the KINGDOM OF GOD.

In CHRIST, we have been brought back to that place of intimacy with the Father, back to the Garden of Eden. JESUS, who is the Beloved of the Father, has become unto us our Eden. As Adam and Eve were placed in the midst of the Garden of GOD’S delight and pleasure, we have been placed and hidden in CHRIST. He will forever be GOD the Father’s delight and pleasure, and so in HIM we are too.

In HIS death on the cross, Jesus became all we are so in HIS resurrection and ascension we could become all He is to the Father.

Now, we are accepted in the Beloved Son. Therefore, we are equally loved, approved, and favored by the Father as HIS begotten son, JESUS. This is an important revelation, because how we see GOD has so much to do with how we see ourselves, and vice versa, and our view affects how we approach GOD. As we remain in living relationship with the HOLY SPIRIT, we are brought to perfect fellowship and union between the Eternal Father and HIS Beloved Son from eternity to eternity. CHRIST in us is our Eden within. Because of Christ, the Father’s eyes and affections are set on us.

BEHOLDING IS BECOMING (PART - 1)

BEHOLDING IS BECOMING (PART - 1) FACE TO FACE In GODS sovereign plan HE designed us to live in HIS presence, and be filled with HIS very presence, and from that place we shine with HIS glory in all we are and all we do. We are created for face-to-face encounters with GOD. Imagine the first time Adam opened his eyes at the very instance GOD breathed on his nostrils the breath of Life. In a moment, He saw the face of GOD shining in glory right in front of him! Just imagine, as he was gazing upon HIS face, all that GOD is...HIS love, power, goodness, majesty, perfection, and glory inundated him and every fiber of his being pulsated with divine life. Literally, Adam was saturated with GOD. He was soaked in glory! This is a beautiful picture of what face-to-face with GOD looks like. This encounter was not just for Adam exclusively, but it is for the rest of mankind as well. In GOD'S sovereign plan, HE designed us, HIS Masterpiece, to live in HIS presence, in the place of i

NO PHYSICAL DEATH

No Physical Death Let ‘s start with the quote “As He is, so are we in Christ” which indicates the immortality of human life. According to the Word, we should be the reflection of His image. Which means, if Christ can’t die, so we should be. Then, what does death mean to us? Origin of Death: “Romans 5.12(KJV)”- Wherefore, as by one-man sin entered the world, and death by sin; and so, death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned The verse convey’ s that DEATH entered the world through SIN. “Romans 6.2-11(KJV)”- 2 How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection

Identity in CHRIST - Part 2 ( Crucified with CHRIST)

Crucified with CHRIST Galatians 2:20 When Paul said, "I have been crucified with CHRIST," it meant he had been judged, condemned, cast out, stripped naked, and nailed to the Cross. The very thought of crucifixion to a Jew, and especially to a Pharisee, brought a sense of shame and horror. When Saul of Tarsus identified himself with the Man, JESUS, accepted HIM as his SAVIOR, and confessed HIM as his LORD, that moment he became a crucified man to the Jewish people. He became an outcast. No wonder he said in Gal. 6:14 that the world had been crucified unto him, and he had been crucified unto the world. The world had been stripped naked to Paul. There was no longer any delusionin regard to it. He could no longer be deceived. He knew its cruelty. He had felt its lash upon his back. He remembered the stoning that had left him unconscious. He remembered that in every place he went, he faced the anger, bitterness, and jealousy of men. He had been stripped naked to t
