Truly Trusting People

Jesus Christ is beginning a new creation … starting over. A new universe, a new government. He even is repairing all relationships in himself.

How does that work?


If Jesus Christ lives within my friends then I can develop trust of Christ in them. He is the great equalizer. If they’ve laid down their old identity and life and taken up a new one in Christ then:

I can begin to see them no longer as superior to me; and to be resisted.

Or no longer inferior to me; to be controlled or dominated or looked down upon.

We can now truly begin to trust one another, and know one another as equals if Christ lives within us both.

The Law of Spirit of Life

I’ve said myself and heard it said many times if you “know better, then do better” basically “respond to what is right.” It’s frustrating to try to get people to respond to truth or to reality through persuasion only.

But responding takes an inner miracle within us. We can do our best by our own strength but that is extremely limited. That falls far short in even the strongest and most gifted of people. People love darkness over light.

The ability to respond to Jesus and to truth requires an inner miracle.

Many “woke” Christians are just legalists laying down new law after new law. They live by and thrive by guilt.

But, most of the “I’m free in Christ” Christians are confused libertines putting people in more bondage than the legalists are.

There is a balance, a law of the spirit of life that helps us to be free TO LIVE FOR Christ. We become able to shun the license to sin but do not reject our brethren for missing the mark (or missing our marks).

The law of the spirit of life is true grace, not pretend grace.

God is for …Jesus

🎤🎼”God is for me, I am who you say I am”🎹

There is a sliver of Christian truth to these lyrics, but only…if applied to the ecclesia.

But there is also a massive amount of over applying and misapplying this truth to every thing and everyone labeled Christian.

To be clear, God is FOR Jesus Christ exclusively. And he is FOR the living breathing community of Jesus Christ.

He is not FOR religious individuals who fit right into Satan’s world system. Be it his Christian religious money-system we sometimes call church or ministry. He is not for individuals who refuse his painful discipleship with their pursuit of ease and pleasure with wealth and who are living according to the pride of life or the lust of the flesh.

If that applies to you, don’t waste your mental energy applying those lyrics to yourself.

But IF Jesus Christ can be absolute center of your life, if he personally is your connection to others. If knowing him is your source of love with and for others. If he is why you gather and is not just your religious mascot. Then grab some mics and sing it loud “He is for us, not against us, we are who You say we are”
