The Fullness of Life

The fullness of life does not necessarily mean our outward circumstances are successful. Either financially or situationally or activity in church. At times it may look like this, but often it does not. Often it looks like difficulty.

“For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭36:9‬ ‭ESV‬‬

The fullness of life is an inward pulling from the life of Jesus Christ. It is an inward seeing and hearing of Jesus Christ that settles a person from the inside our. That guides a person, that directs a person. Not from manipulating and controlling and making things appear a certain way about ourselves. Then proudly boasting “look I’m rich”, or “look I’m full time at church”, or “look I’m active… this is fullness of life.”

People who teach others to do that are very confused. Our lives should not be engineered to look a certain way to allow us to say we are living by the fullness of life. That’s a waste and an insult to the reality of Christ.

As we seek Jesus first in all things without pretense without controls, as we surrender and obey him then we are able to walk in the fullness of eternal life. But it’s his full life we walk in not a manipulated version of our life based on our preconceived ideas of success.

When the Weak can be Strong

When it comes to interpersonal relationships.

There are weak people and there are strong people.

The strong controls the weak and enjoys being strong, although they are not as strong as it might appear

The weak judge the strong and enjoys being weak and are not as weak as they might appear.

Only Jesus Christ can make them equal. In him the weak are willing to lay down their weakness and say “I am strong in him”, and the strong are willing to lay down their tools of dominance and strength over the weak for as long as the Lord wants, perhaps even a lifetime.

This is a sign that Jesus is able to dwell
In a people when the weak can be “strong” and strong can be “weak”. Back and forth taking turns laying down and picking up.

The clergy-laity hierarchy is a great display of this back and forth between the weak and the strong (for good or for bad).

Preparing the Way For the State

What John the Baptist did for Jesus Christ.

Generally speaking, in the world of US politics, republicans do (unintentionally) for democrats/ or whoever comes next among those grasping for government power.

They prepare the way for someone else, as we follow and embrace them, they prepare us spiritually, (in a really bad way.)

They fortify and fund “the swamp” over the decades. The swamp is the state. It’s Satan turning to hijack what the Lord instituted.

They’ve embraced what I call “the gospel of the state” and make it acceptable to the masses who normally would resist.

They prepare us to accept and embrace another gospel about power on this earth and about the future.

They prepare us for the Democrats who (for now) seem more in line with, more intentional and precise about what they want and their vision for the future.

That future best described as “we’ll try anything but Jesus Christ. We insist we have his position over the earth.” It’s been going on now for centuries. They are losing. They hate one another, but they’ll cooperate in that effort.

Its Our job to exercise his authority over than and to communicate the gospel of the kingdom of Jesus Christ to them both.

If we can hear it, if we can embrace it ourselves and then if we can communicate it clearly many if not most of them will stop with the nonsense.
