“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines.For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.
We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.”The Epistle To The Hebrews Chapter 13:8–10
Having Faith, hope in what is not seen; yet, through the Word of God, ‘faith’ having greater meaning, hope through the Word and the gracious power of the Spirit of the Word, Truth & Righteousness, brings one; that is to say, translates one, from the kingdom of spiritual darkness: a life, replete with an attitude, perspective, reasoning, and quality of life that is intrinsically a life of scarcity, vanity, gain & advantage, strife, and selfishness, into THE kingdom of God; the kingdom of Light; an abounding reality overflowing with God, and the fruit of his Spirit: joy, peace, faith, gentleness, temperance, longsuffering, and love.
That stumbling block spoken of, being, that the law, the reading and legal doing of the scripture itself without graciousness, cannot bring peace and joy and love, nor genuine faith, but through ‘grace’ are we saved; that ‘grace’ being the power of the Spirit, according to his Word. Therefore, the begetting of Truth & Righteousness together, being the work of God, and not of us, delineates that access and communion with God is through his Christ; his Sun of Righteousness, Jesus; who being the express image and brightness of the glory of God, The Almighty Father, whom is an invisible spirit, of which none has ever seen, save except His Son, and to whom the Son has reveled Him unto, through the propitiation of his life, has gifted us with love, even the Light of his Glory into the bosom of our hearts.
Thereby, faith being brought forth with power in us, and we, going forth with the power of the Holy Spirit, in all confidence and the strength that is now esteemed through our holy meekness as the sons and daughters of God, we are new creatures in Christ Jesus, whom the Father is well pleased in, for he has shed Light into us that we have new hearts, being able with all sincerity, to call upon God through his only begotten son, Christ Jesus, having made him Lord of Lords, King of Kings. And Jesus, who is from everlasting unto everlasting, being the Lord himself, offered himself in perfect obedience to God, I say, in perfect meek obedience according to his Truth & Righteousness, wrought good works unto the multitude, healing the lame, the deaf, the dumb, the blind, the lepers, those who had died, and after, having not being received by that nation, even all those who are of spiritual Egypt, was treated spitefully, being falsely accused delivered to death upon a cross, nailed unto it and abandoned. This Jesus, rising triumphantly with grace, showing his power once and for all, over life and death; that we may continue in faith unto the love and promise of God, that he is with us until the end and beyond into life everlasting; us being his inheritance, and co-heirs with his son as inheritors of God in us: for the Sun is in the Father, and the Father is in the Sun, and within all of whom the Father has set that holy tabernacle of his Sun of Righteousness.
As he saith, in John Chapter 1, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Jesus, whom, having the preeminence as the Light of the Father, made himself a little lower than the angels that we may know and understand the straight way, having the pattern of Jesus; being lowly of mind and broken of heart unto God in all holy meekness; living the day unto the Lord, and not unto ourselves any longer, seeing we have, because of the mercy of God, received the Holy Spirit of Jesus into our hearts, and now, have the power to sing a new song all the days of our life, even praise unto the Lord, according to his Word and Spirit; according to the tenor of his Truth & Righteousness. Our attitude, perspective, reasoning, and quality of life now being salted and seasoned with a measure of uprightness, how shall we do and be partakers of the things of God? According to the degree of our zeal, our holiness, with grace, and truth, and thanksgiving shall wax and wane; thus, it is in the love of the Truth, God’s Word, and in the understanding of the ornaments and armor of God, being expressions of our new life, even our new song of life, praising God with thanksgiving for the joy wherein we joy, that we will accordingly overflow with peace and joy, being steadfast fountains of the blessings of the Lord.
For we have obtained an inheritance, even God in us, and the knowledge of God; surpassing all understanding on earth, and so we find peace within, the power of faith to go forth in his name, the joy to withstand and endure with longsuffering the ungodliness of this world, being confident because we have this great heavenly treasure which no thief can approach, which satisfies our very souls with His living Holy Spirit; the Lord God having set his Sun in us, whom we call Christ Jesus, the Bishop of our souls, the Bridegroom who is The Great Shepard of the Holy Flock of God, the ‘sons and daughters of the city of light, New and Holy Jerusalem that is from above.’
