You can’t produce righteousness. It comes from God. You can’t produce love. It’s a fruit of the Holy Spirit. It comes from the Holy Spirit. It comes by listening to His voice and receiving His faith. His faith gives you access to His grace. His grace does the works of love and says the words of love through you. You yield yourself to His love. You play an important part. You yield. You stop fighting God. God does everything else.

The commandments “Do not commit adultery,” “Do not murder,” “Do not steal,” “Do not covet,” and any other commandments, are summed up in this one decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” ~ Romans 13:9

For you, brothers, were called to freedom; but do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh. Rather, serve one another in love. The entire law is fulfilled in a single decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” ~ Galatians 5:13-14

And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him. ~ 1 John 4:16-17
If you listen to God in all the ways He speaks to you, God’s faith comes. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word (rhema) of God.

Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word (rhema or utterance) of Christ. ~ Romans 10:17

The Greek term, “rhema,” translated “word,” means “utterance.” Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the utterance of God. Jesus Christ is the Logos, the Utterance of God. That’s why Jesus Christ is the Author and Finisher of your faith. When God speaks, He’s speaking the essence of Christ into you if you will receive it from Him. He’s planting a seed. That means when God leads, if you have ears to hear, faith comes. This faith isn’t an internal human effort of making yourself believe, that is, make-believe. It’s not pretending. Faith is substance: reality as opposed to concept. And it’s evidence: absolutely certain proof.

Righteousness

Righteousness is Jesus Christ manifesting Himself in you, and righteousness springs forth by grace through faith. It’s a gift. That’s the process where God speaks, you hear, faith comes and gives access to grace, and grace does God’s works through you.

You aren’t saved by righteousness, but you are saved to righteousness. You aren’t saved from righteousness, but you are saved from sin. Righteousness is a gift, and it’s part of your salvation.

the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ! ~ Romans 5:7b

For as the earth brings forth its growth, and as a garden enables seed to spring up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations. ~ Isaiah 61:11

Someone may say, “Aren’t you just supposed to love one another, and doesn’t that make righteousness something that belongs to the Law of Moses?” A question like that shows a lack of understanding.

Love is righteousness. God is love. God’s Law is love. God working through you is righteousness. God working through you is the love of God flowing through you.

HIS LOVE IS FLOWING FROM MEMBER TO MEMBER

HIS LOVE IS FLOWING FROM MEMBER TO MEMBER

Chorus
His Love is flowing from member to member,
Each one in the place, which God has ordained.
Though many may try in their own feeble power,
God gives His life freely; in Love our God reigns.

We shall surly be just like Him
In the moment that we see Him as He is,
The Body is all one with many members,
We can read and know: that is how Christ is.

Behold I show you a mystery,
We shall not all die,
But we shall all be changed, in just a moment,
It will happen in a twinkling of an eye.

As with open, unveiled faces,
His image we discern and clearly see.
From glory unto glory to be just like Him,
From faith to faith, we are becoming free.

Now we are little children of God.
He is in us but He hasn’t been unveiled.
As we see Him as He is in each ministry,
We’ll be changed by degrees to be like Him.

Jesus sits at the Father’s right hand,
Until that final enemy is gone,
The last thing to be done is to defeat death,
Then our Lord and Savior, Jesus, will return.

Jesus is the one the heavens must hold,
He must stay there ’til all fullness is restored,
And it’s written, awful death is the last enemy,
Yet preceding the returning of our Lord.

Let’s not put God’s new wine into those old wineskins.
And not ever change God’s wonderful good news
To try to make it fit some old theologies.
Between the ways of men and God, we must choose.

You need to live, move, and have your being in the utterances of Christ as He leads you. If you do that, you’ll eventually know where to fellowship. You’ll know where God has set authority on earth. God is restoring the church. The church is now immature, but God is moving. The church is in disarray, but God will bring order. Organized religion is most often human-organized rather than God-ordained. Much of the church operates in non-Biblical forms and rituals. The church is dragging along artifacts of apostasies and abominations that crept into the church during the first several centuries of the church’s existence. You will find it easier to spot these disorders in other churches. You’ll have trouble seeing them in your own church. You get used to disorder, and disorder gives the illusion of order if you’re accustomed to it.

Many refer to themselves as “called and ordained.” Some of them, God didn’t call or ordain. God didn’t send them. They sent themselves. And yet, God did call some, and they are walking in that calling.

God doesn’t overwhelm you. As God leads, teaches, and corrects you, He’ll continually give you little flashes of a vision of this holy body of Christ. He’ll show you what it will be when He finishes it. He’ll form it without spot or wrinkle or any such thing. It’s an unfolding revelation. As you discern this body and submit to the authority of this body, the Holy Spirit will continue to transfigure you from glory to glory.

You need a personal relationship with Jesus Christ in which He leads, teaches, and corrects you moment by moment in every situation. Then, He speaks to you through the Bible and all the various methods of divine revelation mentioned in the Bible. He speaks visions of hope to you personally in your innermost being. Often, these visions come as momentary flashes of light, and you say, “Wow! I never saw that before.”

God is restoring the church to its original order and pattern. However, you can’t see the Biblical pattern and order in the church today. It’s not there yet. Some theologians even try to explain away the differences by making up an extra-Biblical “apostolic age.” When God shows you something isn’t according to the pattern of Scripture, you shouldn’t argue with Him. You need to acknowledge His voice and seek His face about what you must do.

HIS LIFE IS NOW FLOWING

Since we were born into this mighty kingdom,
Our Lord has saved us from all vanity within.
He bids us come to partake of His goodness,
And leave behind the fleshly night of sin.

His life is now flowing from member to member.
The Body is growing to fullness in Him.
His Love is now flowing–the Fruit of the Spirit.
This Fruit is now growing to fullness in Him.

We daily walk–the Spirit is our teacher.
And as He teaches we yield to our Lord.
We have the part, but we will have the fullness.
If we keep walking, life is our reward.

His life is now flowing from member to member.
The Body is growing to fullness in Him.
His Love is now flowing–the Fruit of the Spirit.

The [physical human] body is a unit, though it is composed of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one [physical human] body. So it is with Christ. ~ 1 Corinthians 12:12

When you read the Bible, God is speaking. I hope you’re listening to Him and thanking Him. In 1 Corinthians 12:12, God says the human body is a unit composed of many parts. Then, He says, “So it is with Christ.”  He DOESN’T say, “So it is with THE BODY OF Christ.” He says “So it is with Christ.”  Christ is the Head in heaven joined to the many-membered body here on earth.

When you discern the body of Christ, you see Christ in all the members of the body of Christ. You see gifts of the Spirit, ministries, offices, and orders. When you recognize and submit to the authority of gifts, ministries, offices, and orders, you recognize and submit to Christ. You carry the authority of the body of Christ everywhere as a member of this body. If I could, I would go into detail on the ways the nine gifts of the Spirit, ministries, offices, orders, and government of the Church work. Suffice it to say God has a pattern for His Church. It’s all in the Bible. We can’t deny those parts of Scripture that tell us about the pattern. The pattern of Scripture is different from what most churches follow. Change is hard, but changes will come. God has already revealed much, and the church has much that it must walk into.

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. ~ 2 Corinthians 3:18

If you see it right, you see the body of Christ as God sees it. Only one Scripture identifies the veil, and the veil is a symbol of the flesh. It refers to the fleshly nature that blinds you so you can’t see reality as it really is. You can’t hear God’s voice, not even when you’re reading Scripture because of the veil of the flesh. Christ removes the veil from your face and you can see.  All you did was to focus on Him. You look as if looking into a mirror. You see the glory of the Lord in that image. And then, you’re transformed. The word translated as “transformed” is the Greek word “metamorphoo,” which means transfigured. It’s the same word used to describe the transfiguration of Jesus on the mountain. However, your transfiguration isn’t sudden. Rather, it goes from glory to glory by the Spirit of the Lord.

What’s happening? What’s this transfiguration? The fleshly veil is disappearing. Every stronghold of the fleshly veil is toppling. God is removing this veil like pealing back the layers of an onion. God removes a layer of lies. You feel like you’re finally seeing things right, but then God starts working on the next layer of the onion. At the same time, the Holy Spirit is sowing Christ into your heart. God speaks and the Holy Spirit sows Christ into your heart.
