"The new things that have come, The indwelling of the Trinity, Part 1.".
Wednesday, April 14, 2010
The importance of understanding the indwelling of all three persons of the Trinity, something that has never occurred before.
God the Father indwells your body,
JOH 14:23; 1JO 3:24; 1JO 4:12-16, EPH 2:2; EPH 4:6; 2Jo 9.
JOH 14:23, Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him, and make Our abode with him.”
1JO 4:15-16, Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. And we have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
EPH 4:6, One God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.
EPH 2:22, In Whom [TLJC] you also are being built together to become in which God lives by His Spirit.
1JO 3:23-24, And this is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded us. And the one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And we know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.
1JO 4:12-16, No one has beheld God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. And we have beheld and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
(1) He wants us to be totally convinced that He is the Creator of our portfolio of invisible assets.
2PE 1:2-3, Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.
(2) He also wants us to be totally convinced that He is the Grantor of our escrow blessings.
HEB 13:5, Let your character be free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, “I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you,”
HEB 13:6, so that we confidently say, “The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What shall man do to me?”
(3) He wants us to be totally convinced that He is the Mastermind of the PPOG for the Church-age.
1PE 5:5-9, You younger men, likewise, be subject to your elders; and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble. Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you. Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world.
(4) He wants us to be totally convinced that He is the Designer of our very own unique and individual plan.
The indwelling of the Trinity is to manufacture winner believers and is the product of Bible doctrine.
This is the great power of the hypostatic union extended into the Church-age to make us winner believers.
