"He must become greater; I must become less.”
JOHN 3:30
There is no good in me except the one who came before me. There is but one good son - Jesus Christ - through his love and spirit - we too are made whole. Worthy as heirs in the blood of Jesus Christ. There is no work but his. No will but his. No truth but his.
It is one thing to teach of Jesus - quite another to try and be a substitute for the one who lives in us. There is one God - He is all in all. The purpose of the individual is to become fully filled with the spirit - to be a lampstand - Holy and worthy before God - set for his righteous purpose in Jesus name.
We are not called to be him. We are called to allow ourselves to accept him - be filled with his Holy Spirit - and be used by him. King Jesus is the one that is great - so we must become less - so that he can live full in our bodies by the power of the Holy Spirit. The body is the temple - the Holy Spirit is the living power of God.
The Lord Jesus is coming back soon - but not before the events written about occur at the time for which they have been set. The world is changing rapidly now and the speed of its change will increase for the fulfillment of God's Word. But do not worry - what is going to happen is not going to be changed - so it is you that must accept Jesus Christ and have faith in him to follow the internal voice of his Holy Spirit. It is in this way that he guides his children - his chosen and keeps them from harm.
We are his - and we belong to him. In Christ Jesus we are set apart - therefore we are not under the condemnation of the world and all that is in it. In Jesus - by faith and obedience - we belong to heaven. You must face death to yourself by choice and that is realized in you by becoming a new creation in the re-birth and baptism of a new spirit. This is how we identify with Christ and his death and resurrection. Two spirits cannot live inside you - so in baptism accept the Holy Spirit and know that it is truly born in you by faith. Therefore, you must make a conscious effort to follow the voice of love - hope and wisdom - the voice of the one that lives forever and desires a personal relationship with you.
"Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life." Romans 6:3-4
"Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him." Romans 6:8-9
