Bible: the complete removal of the carnal nature.
“For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. Not only that, but we also who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body. For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.” (Romans 8:19-25)
This says “revealing of the sons of God.” Other translations say “manifestation of the sons of God.” The word translated as “revealing” is a word that means “taking away a veil.” In the Bible, the veil is the rebellious carnal nature. It’s the flesh. The adoption is the redemption of our bodies. We’re getting new bodies. Biblical adoption is different from today’s adoption. In Biblical adoption, the son must be born as a true son of the Father. The adoption happens when the son has matured to the point he can be set into a position of authority in the Father’s business.
You mature spiritually as Christ is built up in you and your fleshly carnal nature diminishes. The Bible explains how. Turn your attention to Jesus. Praise and thank Him. Ask Him your questions. Listen as He speaks into your mind and directs you. You will know the difference between your own self-talk and the voice of your Creator. You will begin to see His glory and the body of Christ, and His grace will begin to work through you in what you say. As you yield to His righteousness, you grow.
That brings us back to 1 John 3:2 that says, “Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.” Christ is in you. He will appear when He’s fully formed and your carnal nature is gone.
Ask God to answer these questions:
What does it mean for the sons of God to be revealed?
Why does creation groan and wait for the sons of God?
What is the bondage of corruption that creation needs to be free from?
What does it mean to get a new body through redemption?
The Bible mentions adoption, but how is the Bible’s adoption different from today’s adoption?
Bonus questions:
What does it mean to be mature enough to work in the Father’s business?
Why do you need perseverance to wait for what you hope for?
What is the veil that needs to be taken away?
How will you be like Jesus when He appears?
How does Christ become “fully formed” in you?
