MANY SUBSTITUTES

MANY SUBSTITUTES

MANY SUBSTITUTES

They should not be deceived by reasoned doctrine.
The Spirit would reveal but theories blind.
Because they think they know they cannot see it.
Yet the church will one day all be of one mind.

CHORUS:
Many substitutes and orders made by men
Have been called the church in ignorance.
They didn’t want the real, by the false they were deceived.
How often has the Spirit been grieved
How seldom has the Bible been believed.

The church is not a pattern with no power.
The church is not without authority
The church is not a form of man-made order.
God must send each one He sets to oversee.

CHORUS

It is not the church if there’s no growing.
The measure is the fullness of the Son.
Each member must build up with love that’s flowing,
Thus transfigured by the Spirit in each one.

CHORUS

HAVE YOU BEEN GOING FROM GLORY TO GLORY TO GLORY, ONE STEP AT A TIME?

HAVE YOU BEEN GOING FROM GLORY TO GLORY TO GLORY, ONE STEP AT A TIME?

HAVE YOU BEEN GOING FROM GLORY TO GLORY TO GLORY, ONE STEP AT A TIME?

Transformation is both a gradual process and a sudden process. If you have been walking in the Spirit as the Scripture commands, God has been working on your transformation all the while. You have been going from glory to glory to glory to glory, one step at a time. However, a day is coming when there will be a sudden change. The old rebellious fleshly nature will be gone and Christ will be fully mature in you.

“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 3:18

“In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.” 1 Corinthians 15:52-53

“For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.” Romans 8:19

“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

“And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” 1 John 5:11-12

Ask God to answer these questions.

Rather than trusting the fallen human mind to try to answer important questions, ask God. All wisdom and knowledge is hidden in Christ, so ask God about these points:

How can you be transformed from glory to glory?
What is the sudden change called “the manifestation of the sons of God” that will happen in the future?
Why will your old rebellious nature be gone one day?
What does it mean for you to be changed in the twinkling of an eye?
What are the sons of God waiting for?

Bonus questions:

What does it mean to have life more abundantly?
What does it mean to have eternal life through Jesus Christ?
Keep in mind that God doesn’t want you to ever disconnect from Him. He wants to flow through you constantly in knowledge, wisdom, and love.

The Bible shouts to us of transformation.

The Bible shouts to us of transformation.

The Bible shouts to us of transformation. God wants to transform us into the image and likeness of Christ.

“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.” Philippians 3:20-21
The adoption mentioned in Scripture is a sort of adoption different from what you may be familiar with. You may be more familiar with the word “adoption” as modern (Western) adoption, meaning taking someone who’s not born into the family and adding that person to the family. That’s a wonderful thing too, but it’s not what Scripture is talking about when it mentions adoption. Biblical (Eastern) adoption is a totally different concept. The person who is adopted must be a born son. The Bible uses the word “son,” but it applies to men and women. In the Scripture, adoption is placing a mature son into a position of authority in the family business. That’s why born again Christians are waiting for the adoption. And that adoption is the redemption of our bodies.

“And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.” Romans 8:23

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Romans 8:14

Ask God to answer these questions:

How is the Holy Spirit transforming you into the image of Christ?
How will your body be changed to be like Jesus’ body?
What is the difference between
What is the difference between Biblical (Eastern) adoption to modern (Western) adoption??
What does it mean to be a “born son” in the Bible?
What is the adoption that the whole creation and you are waiting for?

Bonus questions:

What is the adoption, which is the redemption of your body?
What does it mean for you to be led by the Spirit of God?

MANIFEST THE LIGHT

MANIFEST THE LIGHT

MANIFEST THE LIGHT

Manifest the light, the life of Christ,
For the world must see Him,
And as He appears, the groaning captives shall go free.
Bring about the change, perform the mighty counsel of His will,
Manifest the Light, the life of Christ,
Let all flesh be still.
