The Lord is looking for believers who are not satisfied with sifting through all the conflicting voices to find a true word. He wants us to hunger for a revelation of him that is all our own—a deep, personal intimacy. The word says depart from me for I never knew you, and another says depart from me I do not know whose house you are from. To be borne again is to be born of his spirit, the word says that Mary was over shadowed by the Holy Spirit, and conceived a child ,the seed she received was Gods seed not the seed of a man. Jesus was conceived by his fathers blood, Mary only gave him flesh. To be borne again is to receive the very nature of Christ, and if we are born again than what are we born unto. Jhn 3:5 ASV - Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God!
Jhn 3:6 ASV - That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. The word says we are born twice and we will die twice. Phl 3:8 ASV - Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ,
Phl 3:9 ASV - and be found in him, not having a righteousness of mine own, [even] that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith:
Phl 3:10 ASV - that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death;
Phl 3:11 ASV - if by any means I may attain unto the resurrection from the dead. Paul said a man without the Holy Spirit is a walking dead man. Alive in the flesh but dead spiritually, so the verses above are speaking of our cross. Mar 15:30 ASV - save thyself, and come down from the cross. God is not interested in our flesh,if you come off of your cross and find your life you will lose it again in the second death Rev 20:6 ASV - Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: over these the second death hath no power; but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
2Cr 5:14 NLT - Whatever we do, it is because Christ's love controls us. Since we believe that Christ died for everyone, we also believe that we have all died to the old life we used to live.
2Cr 5:15 NLT - He died for everyone so that those who receive his new life will no longer live to please themselves. Instead, they will live to please Christ, who died and was raised for them.
2Cr 5:16 NLT - So we have stopped evaluating others by what the world thinks about them. Once I mistakenly thought of Christ that way, as though he were merely a human being. How differently I think about him now!
2Cr 5:17 NLT - What this means is that those who become Christians become new persons. They are not the same anymore, for the old life is gone. A new life has begun!
2Cr 5:18 NLT - All this newness of life is from God, who brought us back to himself through what Christ did. And God has given us the task of reconciling people to him.
2Cr 5:19 NLT - For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. This is the wonderful message he has given us to tell others. Jhn 4:23 ASV - But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers. Jhn 4:24 ASV - God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth. Hbr 12:14 ASV - Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:
Sanctification Strong's Number: g38 Greek: hagiasmos
Holiness, Holy, Holily:
translated "holiness" in the AV of Rom 6:19, 22; 1Th 4:7; 1Ti 2:15; Hbr 12:14, is always rendered "sanctification" in the RV. It signifies
(a) separation to God, 1Cr 1:30; 2Th 2:13; 1Pe 1:2;
Jhn 14:3 ASV - And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.
Jhn 14:4 ASV - And whither I go, ye know the way.
Jhn 14:5 ASV - Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way?
Jhn 14:6 ASV - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jhn 14:2 ASV - In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.
Strong's Number: g2090 Greek: hetoimazo
Preparation, Prepare, Prepared: (1) by God, such as future positions of authority, Mat 20:23; the coming Kingdom, Mat 25:34; salvation personified in Christ, Luk 2:31; future blessings
Strong's Number: g3438 Greek: mone
Mansions:
primarily "a staying, abiding" (akin to meno, "to abide"), denotes an "abode" (Eng., "manor," "manse," etc.), translated "mansions" in Jhn 14:2; "abode" in Jhn 14:23. There is nothing in the word to indicate separate compartments in heaven; neither does it suggest temporary resting-places on the road.
To abide in Christ resting completely in his grace and he is our life, REV 17:14 Together they will wage war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will defeat them because he is Lord over all lords and King over all kings, and his people are the called and chosen and faithful ones." 2Sa 23:15 ASV - And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me water to drink of the well of Beth-lehem, which is by the gate!
2Sa 23:16 ASV - And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto Jehovah.
these men laid down their life for David but he would not drink, If it does not cost us every thing,even our life's its not complete. Just like Jacob at the river Jabbok meaning an "emptying" Gen32:22-31 where Jacob was touched it was physical,but God wants to change us spiritually he wants to change us into Israel. Israel = "God prevails" Rom 11:25 ASV - For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant of this mystery, lest ye be wise in your own conceits, that a hardening in part hath befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in;
Rom 11:26 ASV - and so all Israel shall be saved: even as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer; He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
He is coming for his Church without spot or wrinkle, Rev 21:1 ASV - And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no more.
Rev 21:2 ASV - And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven of God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.
Rev 21:3 ASV - And I heard a great voice out of the throne saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall dwell with them, and they shall be his peoples, and God himself shall be with them, [and be] their God:
Rev 21:4 ASV - and he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more; neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more: the first things are passed away.
Jesus said in three days he would rebuild his temple,and he did in the hearts of men.
God Bless You All
