Premise: By divine revelation, I know Jesus Christ speaks to anyone who seeks Him in sincerity and with persistence. All who seek Him find Him. He speaks through Scripture and the many means of divine revelation mentioned in Scripture. When He speaks, He will impart His faith to whoever seeks Him. That faith is evidence, meaning absolutely certain proof. (proved by revelation)

Conclusion: Therefore, if you seek Him in sincerity and with persistence, He will reveal Himself to you and speak to you, and you will know He exists.

I can’t tell you how many skeptics I’ve invited to know Jesus Christ only to have them reject the offer. They turned away from the Light of Christ. Every person can know Jesus Christ exists. Some people don’t believe Jesus exists. It’s a choice those people made. One other point of truth. Jesus Christ also reveals Himself to every person, and that clinches it. They know. They reject. They are willingly ignorant. Perhaps, some will turn to Christ someday. Maybe they’ll realize they have no path to truth in themselves. The Holy Spirit continues to proclaim Christ to you as you yield to the power of the Holy Spirit.

However, you must go beyond just knowing Jesus Christ exists. You need to learn how you can be conformed to His image and likeness. You need to know how you can overcome the fleshly nature and have Christ fully formed within. Then, you must yield to the Holy Spirit so God can fulfill this promise in you. You must submit to the point where you only say those words that He is saying through you and only do those acts He is doing through you.

I Know Your Fear. I Know Your Pain.

I know your fear. I know your pain.
But I’ll restore My Church again.
I raise it up a mighty temple unto Me.

God’s glory will, the Temple, fill,
But only when it’s fully built.
The veil is torn, the Christ revealed that all may see.

You can’t prove a conclusion based on a premise you haven’t proved any more than you can prove a conclusion based on a lie.

The premise is how you know the conclusion is true. Here’s an example:

Premise: If Jesus speaks to me, then Jesus is real. (proved by revelation)
Premise: Jesus speaks to me. (proved by revelation)
Conclusion: Therefore, I know Jesus is real.

Notice the premises are true. Notice the conclusion contains no information that wasn’t in the premises. That’s what’s meant by the conclusion following from the premises. When the form of logic is valid, the conclusion restates the premises. It can’t go beyond the premises. No new information was added secretly between the premises and the conclusion. Notice the premises prove the conclusion.

You can’t prove a conclusion based on a premise you haven’t proved any more than you can prove a conclusion based on a lie. You must prove the premise. You must know the premise is true. You may not have a way to prove the premise to anyone else, but you have to know it’s true. You need proof even if no one else can see the proof. You need to know. Here’s an example of true premises that prove the conclusion:

Premise: Jesus Christ speaks to me. He speaks through Scripture and the many means of divine revelation mentioned in Scripture. When He speaks, He imparts His faith to me. That faith is absolutely certain proof Jesus Christ exists. (all proved by revelation)
Conclusion: Therefore, Jesus Christ exists.

Some people say this doesn’t help them. They don’t believe what you tell them about your experiences with Christ. You can’t prove anything to anyone through logic. You may be able to convince them, but convincing isn’t the same as proving. And a skeptical person can always remain unconvinced. Only the Holy Spirit can speak truth into their hearts. The Holy Spirit may speak that truth through you, the Bible, or some other means. However, a skeptic or scoffer can easily resist the Holy Spirit. All who love truth listen to Jesus. People must see the proof themselves. And they can.

Convinced of ideas that aren’t true

Logic isn’t sound unless the premise is true and the form is valid. And we know the human mind has no way to reason to a true premise. We know divine revelation is the only way to have a true premise.

Nuts and Bolts

Here are the elements:
• true premises
• valid form
• true conclusions that don’t add new information to the premises

The premise is the foundation. The premise is how you know the conclusion is true. The foundation must be true. Truth is absolute by definition. Strongly-held beliefs are not truth. Groupthink isn’t the same thing as truth. Peer pressure isn’t truth. Truth is reality. Truth is absolute.

The premise needs to support the conclusion. The term “support” can mean to verify the truth of something. However, people can also define it in other ways. Some people define the word “support” in ways that don’t do what logic is all about. You can also define the word “verify” in various ways. And some of those definitions are stronger than others. Logic requires the premises must prove the conclusion is true. Proof indicates absolute knowledge. It’s not like the courts where you must prove your case beyond a reasonable shadow of a doubt. That would be qualified proof instead of proof. Logic requires proof without any qualifications or softening of the word. Otherwise, the logic isn’t sound.

Logic has the goal of establishing the truth. Logic has the purpose of helping you tell the difference between reality and make-believe. To do that, the premises need to remove all doubt. Premises must prove the conclusion beyond doubt. It’s more than that, though. Even if you don’t have any doubt, that doesn’t mean you’ve found the truth. You can become convinced of ideas that aren’t true. You can be without any doubt and be wrong. If you don’t base your thinking on truth, you could feel sure of something that’s not true. Truth is absolute by nature. Without the faith that comes by hearing the voice of God, you cannot possibly know any truth.

I KNOW I’LL JUST BE SATISFIED

I know I’ll just be satisfied knowing
There are some things I just don’t know.
Y’know I know that my Jesus knows all about it,
And He’s got it all under control.
So I know I’ll just be satisfied knowing
There are some things I just don’t know.
Y’know I’ll set my whole heart to know the Lord
And I know He’ll make me whole.

Then said Jesus said . . . All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. . . . I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. . . . And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. . . . But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me ~ John 10:7-27

This passage of Scripture gives the secret to the unity of the Church. “Them also I must bring and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.” Precious few verses of Scripture tell you how God will answer the prayer of Jesus that you will all be one.

Another Scripture in Ephesians 4:11-13 tells you this:

And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for works of ministry and to build up the body of Christ, until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as we mature to the full measure of the stature of Christ. ~ Ephesians 4:11-13

This passage of Scripture explains what God is doing and how He is doing it. It shows you what you need to complete the work. What is that work? Read carefully and understand God’s process. Saints, believers, you and me, are being equipped so we can minister or serve effectively to build up the body of Christ. As the body of Christ builds itself up in love, you see it reaching unity in the faith and knowledge of the Son of God. Then, the body of Christ matures.

King James Version says it matures to a perfect (that is, a completely mature) man. It doesn’t say mature men and women, but the unity is so complete the body of Christ functions as a single person. And finally, it matures. It comes to the measure of the fullness of the stature of Christ. Every member of the body of Christ will have Christ fully formed within. This requires that each member listens closely to the leading of the Holy Spirit and yields to the righteousness of the Holy Spirit. As each member listens to the Holy Spirit, the Spirit will give the ability to discern the body of Christ. That submission to the grace of God and the righteousness of grace allows the Holy Spirit to plant the Seed of the Word (Christ) into the heart of each member. That’s how Christ is formed within.

Each will be in his or her place of ministry in total submission to the Head, Christ in Heaven. Each one will be joined to Christ. The body of Christ will move in perfect unity. This body will fulfill the Biblical order for the body of Christ. God is, even now, restoring His church from faith to faith and from glory to glory.

This is God’s endgame. This is the vision of the hope of what God is doing. This is your destiny and only place of satisfaction, peace, and fulfillment. And you and I can take part in it if we’re willing.

I Know He Lives

I know He lives, yes, I know He lives,
And because He lives – so live I,
That my life may be hid in the cleft of that Rock,
And that Christ may be seen in me.

God works all things together for the good of those who love Him according to His purpose

If you love God and yield to Him, God orchestrates the entire universe to fulfill His good purpose to conform you into the image of Christ. God works all things together for that good purpose.

And we know that God works all things together for the good of those who love Him, who are called according to His purpose. For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers. ~ Romans 8:28-29

Sometimes, people quote Romans 8:28 as “all things work together for good.” Some people give you more context. They say God works all things together for good for those who love Him. Others give you even more context. They say it’s for those who are called according to God’s purpose. However, you must get the whole context. You can’t leave anything out. His purpose is that you will be conformed to the image of His Son. God works everything to transfigure you into the image and likeness of Christ. The fleshly nature must go. You must have Christ fully formed within. Each of you must become the ministry God ordained you to be. Christ in you is your ministry. Your ministry is Christ in you. God will form us into one body in unity. Each member must be in complete submission to the Head of the body. All the members must unite and submit to each other. And God has a plan for that.

God has a plan, and He has a pattern and process for executing His plan. Jesus prayed that we would all be one. That’s part of God’s plan for the church. Because the church has become divided, many have given up all hope of unity, but God has not given up hope. You see Satan’s plan in ecumenism, but that false unity doesn’t make God’s real unity any less real. God knows exactly how He’s going to bring His church to maturity and unity. Human efforts at unification are fruitless, but God has a way.

I Hear Singing

I hear singing – the redeemed of the Lord now stand;
Those who follow the Lamb,
Undefiled by man.
Out of Zion, the everlasting Gospel rings,
I see the Priests and Kings,
The redeemed of the Lord.
The everlasting Gospel rings,
I see the Priests and Kings,
The redeemed of the Lord.

The Unity and Fulfillment

God will restore the entire creation. He’ll do that at the end of the ages of the ages. That’s His final endgame. However, He also has an intermediate endgame for this present age. God’s purpose is to conform you to the image of His Son. Conforming to the image of Christ is closely related to two other events. Those events are His appearing and abiding presence in fullness. The eighth chapter of Romans gives you wonderful insight into God’s plan.

The creation waits in eager expectation for the revelation of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until the present time. Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. ~ Romans 8:19-23

“Revelation” is “apokalypsin” in Greek. It’s the removal of the veil. What is this veil? We’ve already defined it through Scripture. The veil is the flesh. The “revelation of the sons of God” is removing the flesh. It’s removing the fleshly nature. The “adoption as sons” is the “redemption of our bodies.” God is going to redeem your body. It looks like you’ll get a new spiritual body.

Now we know that if the earthly tent [physical body] we live in is dismantled, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. For in this tent we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. So while we are in this tent, we groan under our burdens, because we do not wish to be unclothed but clothed, so that our mortality may be swallowed up by life. And God has prepared us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to come. ~ 2 Corinthians 5:1-5

The Seed of the Fruit of Love

I have the seed
It’s the seed of the fruit of Love flowing out from me
I see the weed
I see a fruit that is deceptive hanging on the tree.
I have a need
For the fullness of the Love of God flowing out from me.
Now, Lord, I plead
Water my ground constantly,
Don’t let my stony heart impede,
Don’t let the birds get at the seed,
Take away those thorny weeds,
Let your love grow up in me today.

Discernment and Maturity

You could become discouraged. You may think God is leading a certain way, but it doesn’t work out. You may think you have a promise from God, but you don’t receive it. Then, you blame God or you condemn yourself. You may give up and think God isn’t leading you at all. Think about the term “leading of the Holy Spirit.” When you become discouraged you may think that term is just a euphemism. You may think it has no real meaning. Consider the songs you sing. Are they filled with meaningless poetic phrases?

He walks with me and He talks with me.

He leadeth me. He leadeth me.

Speak, O Lord, as you come to You

Open up your ears to hear Lead us in Your truth

Word of God speak

No, those phrases are loaded with deep and clear meaning.

Don’t give up. If you fail, get up and keep walking. You know God is faithful to complete the good work He started in you. God is leading you to maturity. Maturity isn’t instant. You need humility.

If you listen to Christ and walk according to the vision He gives you, you take a step in the right direction. You stay on the way, directed by Christ. The Holy Spirit builds the spiritual man (Christ) and demolishes the carnal man. You’re more mature in Christ, better able to tell the difference between good (God) and evil (the fallen human mind).

But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained their senses to distinguish good from evil. ~ Hebrews 5:14

The Spirit compels me to travel on

I HAVE SET MY FACE AS A FLINT TO WALK TOWARD JERUSALEM

I have set my face as a flint to go toward Jerusalem.
I have set my face as a flint to go toward Jerusalem.
Though the road be hard and upward.
Though the path be narrow and full of pain.
Yet the Spirit compels me to travel on,
That all my loss is gain.
I have set my face as a flint to go toward Jerusalem.
I have set my face as a flint to go toward Jerusalem.

O Jerusalem.
O Jerusalem.
Coming down from our God out of Heaven.
Let us enter in
The New Jerusalem;
Prepared as a Bride for Her Husband.

Now God will live with men.
Heaven and earth, He shall renew;
Old things are passed away,
And all things are made new.
