Matt 16:19
A new trumpet is sounding today that is awakening the First Fruits of
Christ to a new dimension of ruling and reigning with Christ. These Early Fruits
will be endowed with Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding in all the ways of the
Lord. They are being initiated into the Sacred Secrets of the Priest/King
ministry that is patterned after the Melchizedek order of Jesus Christ. A great
cleansing is happening the hearts of these overcoming sons, for these attributes
will not be haphazardly handed out to anyone that is not mature and balanced in
their makeup. There are certain requirements that must be met before the power
and the glory of such an order and ministry will be put on full display. The
childish games that the institutionalized church systems play will not be seen
in this company of sons. The greed and lust for fame and fortune that is found
in the religious echelons of the Babylonian Church Empire will not have a place
in these chosen vessels, as the Lord that is Faithful and True has determined in
Himself that He will have an army of God that is fully under His command. For
this reason, we must now prepare our hearts for all that the Lord will instruct
us concerning this Seventh Trumpet and the voice of the Seventh Angel
(Messenger). The trumpet that is now sounding is bringing sons of God to the
epi-synagogue (the highest gathering) where a life will be taken and another
life given. The individual, self-conscious life that all mankind was born with
will be sacrificed in this high place and there will be no quarter given to the
corruptible seed of the adamic nature. These dear saints that once was more
alive in this world than they were alive in God will now be in a state and
condition of the living dead.
Rom 6:3-9
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:
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin
might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no
more dominion over him. KJV
These living dead in Christ are to be given the same power and authority
as their Elder Brother and Commander in Chief, Jesus Christ. They are baptized
with His baptism, which is not a trip to the river to go through a water
baptismal ceremony, but this baptism is one given to those that are to be found
dead, yet alive in the earth. Even as Christ’s true baptism was unto death at
the cross, these will follow Him into that baptism. Then, even as Christ was
crucified, buried and resurrected, these will also follow Him through that
process, crucified, buried (hid in Christ) and resurrected by the first
resurrection, upon whom the second death (the grave) will have no power. They
follow the Lamb, whithersoever He leads and He is leading them into the Throne
Room of His Father, where they will partake of His Divine Nature. Notice that
they are PARTAKING of His Divine Nature. Unlike the common Christian believer,
these chosen vessels have a greater requirement on them other than just
“believing on the Lord Jesus Christ.” They are PARTAKERS of His Divine Nature
and they have APPLIED His blood to their door posts, having become immune to the
power of death through His Divine Nature Activated within them. They are more
than just containers of the fullness of Christ, they are participators with Him
in the administration of that fullness.
This is why the hand of the Lord is heavy upon them with righteous
judgment and correction. They are to rule and reign with the Mighty Christ,
bringing heaven and earth under His dominion and Kingship. It is one thing to
HAVE Christ in your heart, it is another thing to have Christ ACTIVATED within
your heart, standing up within your vessel and moving in and through you. We all
have heard the Word of the Lord unto us, but now we are going to BECOME the
expression of that Word, the express image of that Word in the world, until we
are a living plague of life in the earth. We must know what it is to be
CONTAGIOUS with the spirit of Christ, so that it becomes more than just a
personal walk of our faith, but it becomes a river of life, flowing out from us
and infecting everything around us with its vivifying life. How different this
is than just the normal Christian walk of faith! This is what happens when we
PARTAKE of the Divine Nature Activated within our being.
Most of those that minister the word of reconciliation only understand the one
aspect this foundational Truth of God’s plan of redemption for all mankind. Let
me minister to you for a little space here on what reconciliation really is in
its proper place in the plan of God. We are not GOING TO BE RECONCILED,
we HAVE BEEN RECONCILED. In all actuality, creation was reconciled in God
through Christ before creation was ever formed in the book of Genesis. In fact,
BEFORE Adam ever sinned in the garden, Christ had already been crucified in God
and redeemed Adam and all of his seed back into right standing with the Father.
That is where the true FINISHED WORK is actually found, not 2,000 years ago at
the cross. The work of redemption and the sacrifice for sin was accomplished in
God before the foundations of the ages and that is something that is irrevocable
and immutable. You and the entire human race ARE RECONCILED! Now, understand
something here. Just because Christ reconciled the world in God before the
foundations of the ages did not mean that there would be no need for a physical
sacrifice of the Son 2,000 years ago. This is one of the great secrets of the
mysteries of Christ for us to come into. Whatever happens in the heavens must
likewise happen in the earth and whatever happens in the earth will happen in
the heavens. They are mirror images of each other! Whatever is bound in heaven
is bound in earth and whatever is loosed in heaven and loosed in the earth. Even
as we have borne the image of the earthly so it is that we will bear the image
of the heavenly.
1 Cor 15:42-49
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is
raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is
raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural
body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last
Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and
afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from
heaven.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly,
such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of
the heavenly. KJV
Even so, it is true that everything was finished and complete in Christ,
in God before time began, but because God always does everything in a more
excellent way, He took that which was within Himself and lowered it into a realm
of death and corruption, so that He could then set the heavens and earth into a
time frame of eonian stages of restoring that creation back into Himself, but
with something added to that creation that could not be brought into reality
without first going through death (separation from God). Therein lies the power
of RESURRECTION! Without death, there is no resurrection, but once death occurs
than there can be a RE-SURRECTION of that dead thing, into a GREATER STATE OF
BEING! Wherein we were reconciled by Christ before we were given a soul and a
body, we were given God’s guarantee that He would not leave our soul in hell,
but we all would have life through that great Sacrifice of the Son of God. That
shedding of such precious blood had to have been spilled into the earth, in
order that that which was accomplished in the spirit of the Father could have an
expression in the earth so that the earth itself could be transfigured and
transformed by that Divine Life. Now, just because we have been reconciled does
not negate the fact that we must then follow through in our fallen state with
being found AS HE IS. God’s intent for mankind is not to have a race of sinners
saved by grace living in Him through eternity. His intent is to infuse this
fallen creation with His own SELF, filling everything, everywhere with His own
Life, God-Life. Oh the wonder of it all! So many that minister the message of
reconciliation have only ministered half the truth of how great a salvation that
we are given the grace to partake of. In this scripture, we plainly see the
two-fold aspects of God’s plan of salvation.
Rom 5:7-10
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man
some would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.
9 MUCH MORE THEN, being now
justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
10 For if, when we were enemies, we
were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, MUCH MORE, being reconciled, we
shall be saved by his life.
KJV
I cannot overstate to you how important this particular set of scriptures
is for us to grab hold of and assimilate into our spirit. I don’t know about
you, but I really perk up when I see the words, “MUCH MORE” within these
scriptures. It highlights what I just wrote to you concerning how much greater
our final outcome will be than our beginnings in God. What Christ accomplished
at the cross by giving His earthly life and by the natural shedding of His blood
is absolutely worthy of all praise and adoration. By fulfilling His spiritual
sacrifice in the Father before the world was made, Jesus then turned the page
from the law and prophets and brought all mankind into the next phase of God’s
restorative purpose for His creation. However, many had died in the earth before
Jesus, glorifying their God with martyrdom for His great cause. The difference
is, they stayed dead to this world. In the case of Jesus, (and this is why I
love Him so), He died a true death and then went into the belly of the earth
(sheol) and preached the Gospel of His Good News to all that went before Him,
then brought captive into captivity. After becoming the Savior of all that lived
before His sacrifice, He was then raised from the dead by the life of His
Father, conquering death, hell and the grave. This is now the beginning of the
MUCH MORE! Having BEEN
reconciled (past tense) by His death, we shall be (are now being – present
future continuum) saved by His life! What was laid to rest in the tomb was a
perfect sacrifice, a Savior for all mankind. What came out of that tomb was a
KING and a LORD, the First Begotten of the Father, a First Fruit of a New Man, a
God-man. Because Jesus partook of the lineage of Adam, then met up with that
lineage in the flesh through His mother, Mary, He became one of us, our Brother
in the truest sense. Forever identified with us as SONS of God, He then overcame
that fleshly life and made a way for us into the Holiest of All, which we are
now entering into boldly and with faith in His Word concerning our generation.
For 2,000 years, God has parceled out His glory to each generation according to
their order and appointment in His plan. Now, a chosen generation is at hand,
entering into the 3rd millennium (day) from His death and
resurrection. They are a generation of destiny, not as other generations that
lived according to freedom of choice concerning reaping and sowing, this
generation has been CHOSEN, not CALLED, DRAGGED, not LED, APPREHENDED, not
ASKED. They have no choice in their destiny and God is not politely asking them
to serve Him. These are those that God has reserved back in Himself until a set
and appointed time in His plan. They are SENT, not just BORN, into this world,
just as their Pattern was 2,000 years ago.
This may come as a shock to many of you, but the message of
reconciliation is not a message for the 3rd and final Feast of Tabernacles.
Reconciliation is nothing more than John 3:16. It is a foundational message that
deals with the Feast of Passover. There are many today that are trying to make
the truth of reconciliation an end time revelation, something that is just now
being allowed to be ministered by the Father for a final generation of sons to
minister. Actually, it is nothing more mysterious than "God Is Love." The reason
why it seems so deep and mysterious today is because the Church has strayed so
far from the foundation of God's unconditional love for all men everywhere. The
religious institutions have laid their foundation as God's judgment and wrath
toward all that do not believe their message, relegating these abstainers from
their hallowed halls of eternal judgment as sinners worthy of eternal torture
and banishment from God's presence. As you can see, when a person is raised with
these kinds of mindsets and doctrinal dogmas, when the Truth about the love of
God is ministered to such brain washed individuals, it becomes mysterious and
dangerous to their damaged minds, which illicit a violent, religious reaction of
fear and panic. It is enough to break my heart to think of how the religious
institutions of Christianity have perverted the true Gospel (Good News) of Jesus
Christ. However, it is not only the Babylonian Church System that is ensnaring
people into a prison house of wrong thinking. The fact that so many today are
teaching doctrines that are only part-truths is just as hurtful and
heartbreaking for me and all of those that have eaten the whole Book and see the
Beginning and the End of God's plan and action in the hearts of His children.
The message of reconciliation must include more than just the "unconditional
love of God." This phrase has found its way into the Kingdom ranks and is even
found in Denominational thought and theology. Let us understand what this phrase
actually means and what it is speaking about.
Love without condition is a foundational pillar in the Good News of Jesus
Christ, but there are many that use this phrase in a way that has caused
believers to miss the mark in rightly dividing the Word of Truth. In Romans 5:8
(see scriptural reference above) it states that Jesus died for us while we were
yet sinners, exemplifying that our sinful condition was not a deterrent to His
redemptive act and was not even considered by Him in His sacrificial death. His
love was without conditions upon us. As I have already stated, this was not a
singular act 2,000 years ago, at the cross, but this unconditional act of love
was accomplished IN THE FATHER BEFORE THE FOUNDATIONS (AGES) OF THE WORLD. In
other words, before Adam ever partook of the Tree of Good and Evil, the act of
reconciliation had already been accomplished! Reconciliation, which entails
Reconstitution, Restoration, Renewal, a Reinstatement back into a former estate
and condition, is not a conditional, futuristic act to be accomplished upon at
the moment of a so-called "sinner's prayer", but is without revocation, abiding
even when the object of its love is in as state of denial and refusal. Such is
the length, the breadth, the width and the height of God's love for us. Blessed
be His Name!
Even so, we must be able to understand the second phase of Romans 5:9&10,
which speaks of a salvation that is not just positional, but experiential. The
theologians of the religious institutions of today will only speak in terms of
positional truth, what is ours because of God's grace.
Eph 2:8-9
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the
gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
KJV
Now, let us follow on to know the Lord and to be instructed in all of His ways.
Read the next verse.
Eph 2:10
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which
God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
KJV
As you can see, there are 2 works mentioned here, the boastful works of man and
the "good works" of those that are the result of a people that are the
'workmanship" of God, created in Christ Jesus UNTO these good works, wherein God
has BEFORE ordained that we should WALK IN THEM. Verses 8 and 9 are positional,
verse 10 is experiential and involves our participating in such works. So my
question is, do these two kinds of works apply to all men everywhere, as
reconciliation does, or are they meant to be manifested in 2 different kinds of
believers? It is plain to me that we need to start understanding how the
scriptures speak to the entire lineage of believers, in all ages and at all
times of revealed Truth. It would be silly to think that those believers that
served God during the Dark Ages had the same availability and manifestation of
Truth in their midst as we do today. In those past ages, reconciliation stood as
a beacon in the darkness, giving them hope of a better life in the world to
come. Today, we are almost blinded by the amount of light that is emanating from
the spirit of the Lord, illuminating us with such revelatory Truth that it
leaves us in a state of shock and awe. Surely, we are in a time of Trumpets such
as has never been heard before!
God is forming a Man in the earth! He is a New Man, a New Breed of Man, a
God-man that will bring forth a New Day of God's intended purpose for His
creation. This is the MUCH MORE that Romans 5:9&10 were speaking about. Along
with a New Day and a New Man comes a change of order in the way that God is
dealing with these First Fruits of His Life and Glory. God is not dealing with
my dear brother in the world that is functioning as a Pastor of a Denominational
church in the same way as He is with me. I am not called to be a Pastor, I am
called to a king/priest order, which by necessity brings me under a very
different discipline than any of the offices of the nominal church order. All of
you that have been chosen to come into this First Fruit company are also under a
different regimen of faith and dealings than any of your religious friends and
loved ones. We are those that the MUCH MORE is speaking to and God is not
leaving us under the sanctuary of His grace and reconciliation, where there is
only unconditional love and grace bestowed upon us. We are those that are
brought under the righteous judgment of Christ, where He corrects us and tests
us until we meet those conditions that are required by Him to be One with Him in
every facet of our being. We cannot go around telling folks that they can stay
just like they are, no matter how lost and undone they are, no matter how badly
they behave and how much hurt and destruction they pour out on their victims,
for we are those that are destined to be God's Agents of Change!
We are all about CHANGE, as we have been reserved back in God until the
age of CHANGE, which is being initiated by a Trumpet of CHANGE that is not for
all believers to hear, but only those that "have ears to hear what the Spirit is
saying to the Church." We are not
destined to live the casual Christian life, where we go to church each Sunday to
be preached at and prayed over and then go out to the world and try not to kill
anyone until the next Sunday service. We are being groomed and trained to be
DEATH-EATERS, REPAIRERS OF THE BREACH, RESTORERS OF PATHS TO DWELL IN, MIGHTY
MEN OF VALOR, A ROYAL PRIESTOOD, A CHOSEN GENERATION and MUCH MORE! God isn't
going to raise this First Fruit company of over-comers to simply be "preachers",
TELLING the world about God's wonderful intent and purpose for them, we are
being raised up to be the first generation since Jesus of Nazareth to SHOW THEM
what God's plans are for them. When I look into God and catch a glimpse of this
order of Messengers that God has reserved for Himself, all I see are "dead
people." Dead to this world, dead to the realm of limitations, dead to the
temptations of sin, dead to their own will and desires, dead to the cares of
this world and the lure of fame and fortune, dead to pride, dead to jealousy,
dead to all of the fruits of the flesh. Ah, but at the same time, I see these as
alive in God, alive to His love and compassion, alive to His will for them,
alive in Him and by Him and for Him! What a blessed Day this is!
There are moments, such as this, when it strikes me how utterly
nonsensical this writing would be to the natural mind. If anyone were to read
these words without the understanding of the spirit they would naturally be
confused and perhaps even upset at such concepts that are so foreign to the
religious pattern of thinking about God and His Church. Even some of us that
have been around the Kingdom message for many years may be overwhelmed and
intimidated by such a Plan that would involve us as participators and cohorts
with the Lord of Glory. Christ appearing IN US? A world stage of ministry that
would have dealings with Heads of State, Presidents, Emperors, Dictators and
even the King of England? Oh yes, all of that and more. The only thing that can
give us peace and assurance on this being possible is to know Who it is that has
called us to such a divine appointment. I just read this wonderful, short
devotional by our friend, John Gavazzoni, that deals with such concerns,
entitled, "Of His Own Will."
Quote:
"The phrase,
"of His own will"
appears in that exact form at least twice in the KJV version of the New
Testament, in Ephesians 1: 11, and James 1: 18. The Ephesian passage confronts
us with the grandeur of God's sovereignty, the splendor of divine deliberation
which allows for no loopholes that would give opportunity for other wills to
mess with, or mess up, God's good pleasure. It leaves no room for any outside
input, and certainly does not portray a God anxiously hoping for other wills
that might grant Him permission to carry out His own. An enlightened
preacher might even wish for a fanfare before quoting, "In whom also we have
obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of him, who
worketh all things after the counsel of his own will." The opening words to the
worship chorus penned by brother Jack Hayford come to mind: "Majesty, worship
His Majesty." O yes, indeed. There it is, the freedom of God. A God who is free
to desire, intend, purpose, and will whatever, and then, unobstructed by any
other will or wills, does the thing----perfectly.
When writing those words,
Paul most certainly must have had in mind God speaking through Isaiah:
"Remember the former things
of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like
me, declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times the things that
are not yet done, saying, 'My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my
pleasure: calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my
counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass;
I have purposed it, I will also do it."
(Isa: 46: 9--11). It is upon
Himself, according as He has spoken of Himself, that He gives us great and
wonderful promises of redemption, security and salvation. Such a Father God can
be relied upon. Such is the God and Father that drew forth from His Son that
faith which Paul in this same epistle calls "the faith OF Christ," and such is
the faith that is ours in union with Christ. As the Lord once spoke to me:
"Nothing depends
upon you; everything depends upon Me, so you can depend upon me."
James comes along side
Paul and complements his emphatic apostolic declaration of divine effectiveness
with the wonderfully sweet, personal assurance:
"Of His own will begat He us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of
firstfruits of his creatures."
God willed that we be begotten of Him. He willed it, spoke the Word of truth
into us, and by that irresistible Word, He
"hath begotten us again unto a
lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead"
(1Pet: 1: 3b). He spoke the
Word, Jesus, into us in all His resurrection glory. Now that very resurrection
life of Christ has begun the process of spreading from our spirit-base to
our souls, consummating with this corruption putting on incorruption, and
this mortal putting on immortality, that it might be said,
"Death is swallowed up in
victory."
Why and how were you born again
unto a lively hope? Because He willed it." end quote.
We are destined for a metamorphosis from what we are now to that which
God has designed us to be. There is a New Man inside us, which has been living
in a kind of silence throughout our years of this earthly life. This New Man is
truly alien to this world of fleshly desires. He finds no witness in the
religiosity of Babylonian methodology and divination. He is waiting for the
appointed time of the Father to begin sounding a New Sound in the earth, which
will call together all those that are hearing the trumpet call into Christ,
there to be refined and purified by His holy flames of righteous judgment.
Within ourselves there are many changes that need to be made in order to bring
us into a WHOLENESS and to make us WHOLLY unto the Lord. There are many today
that do not want to hear of God's judgment, nor do they want to hear about a
PROCESS of being changed from what we are into that which we must become. They
think everything is alright just the way it is, that there is no refinement
needed for us. Some even deny that there ever was an issue with sin in mankind,
that it is all a man-made concept that crept into the religious minds of men of
old. The fact is, this kind of thinking makes it even more clear that there is a
need for a change in God's people. The process of change is a necessary action
that will bring forth the hidden treasures of God, buried deep within the heart
of man, to the surface and put those hidden elements of God's nature and
character into full display to the world. I thank God for the process, as it
shows forth the enduring patience of God in bringing His sons to glory. Wouldn't
it be awful to be staring into the darkness of night and then to have light
burst upon the scene suddenly? This is not the case in the real world. In the
real world, the earth slowly turns to the sun, allowing the sun to spread its
rays of illumination into the earth in a process of dawning that allows us to
adjust our vision as those things hidden in the dark come into sight in the
appropriate span of time. Yes indeed, this great metamorphosis is happening in
the God ordained stages of transformation that will not stop until the
designated image and likeness that we were made in comes into full light. The
processing of the Lord allows us to learn the ways of the Lord throughout these
stages, giving us moments of SELAH, pauses of contemplation upon what the Lord
has done. Some have no concept of coming into something greater, something more
glorious than where they presently are in their development in Christ. They are
stunted in their spiritual growth, children that should be mature adults.
Instead, they speak of things they know nothing about, just trying to sound
spiritual and mysterious by expounding on delusionary ideas about their own
divinity. This is what happens when one removes themselves from the process of
change!
To think that God does not treat full grown sons any differently than He
does new born believers is to deny the very order of things in the natural,
which are types of what is taking place in the spiritual realm. It can be
hilarious to see a new pair of parents with their precious bundle of joy when it
is a newborn. I have witnessed firsthand the wondrous amount of grace that is
accorded to the newborn babe as it does those natural things that every baby
does. Namely, poop and pee. This phenomenon is acted out throughout every
culture and nation in the world today. We even go out and prepare for such an
event in buying cartons of things called, "diapers." I have sat in a living room
and watched as the parent picks the baby up and says something like this. "Oh,
Oh! Do I smell something? Did you do a poo poo in your diapy? Did my little baby
mess up its diapy? Aww. Let's go do something about that." Then, with a kiss on
the cheek, the parent goes to the changing station and puts on a clean diaper.
Amazingly, this scenario will be played out many times that day, without a hint
of judgment, or wrath, or undue expectations on the baby. The child is living in
a time of complete grace and love, is it not? No one could possibly expect more
from him/her. But, hold on a minute. Fast forward about 7 years. Have
Johnny/Joannie come plop on the lap of one of their parents with a load in their
pants and see if grace is at hand! What changed? The babe came into a time of
accountability, which dictated that he/she learn the proper way to dispose of
such natural occurrences by taking a trip to the toilet. A change of order was
instituted, based upon the growth and development of the child. Even so, grace
still abides. Believe it or not, some children are born clumsy. Nothing
personal, it is just a plain fact. So, before someone started inventing leak
proof drinking glasses for children, across this great nation of ours, families
would sit down for a nice, peaceful dinner and lo and behold, Johnnie,Joannie,
would reach for a glass of their milk and somehow knock it nearly clean off the
table, spilling the contents all over the table. After quite a bit of grousing
and frustrated comments, the mess would be cleaned up and on with the dinner.
Grace. I remember distinctly a time in my childhood when I myself displayed my
natural clumsiness at our dinner table. It just so happened that on my dinner
plate was a slice of liver, which I truly hated, but was required to eat. It
just so happened, that when I reached for my glass, I accidentally spilled the
entire contents directly into my plate, covering the slice of liver and the
other items. For a brief second, I saw this as an act of providence, whereby now
I could plainly see that the plate of food was ruined, hence that liver would
never see the inside of my mouth. JOY! Until I saw the look on my father's face,
which incredibly saw this act as a deliberate, staged event with the hopes of my
not having to eat what I dearly hated. JUDGMENT! As much as I truly detested the
taste of liver, I found out it tasted even worse with a glass of milk poured all
over it. As I grew older, I learned that I had to be responsible for my actions,
no matter how they were perceived, which caused me to hone my skills so that I
stayed in right standing with not only my parents, but anyone that was in my
presence. PROCESS OF CHANGE! Let us grow up into the stature of a fully grown,
mature son of God and know that during this process, God will no longer be
winking at our ignorance, but staring at us with expectations of a son indeed.
