Living Off Borrowed Time

Humanity from Adam & Eve is living off borrowed time from God and should be on the endangered species list.

I say this not because of its low population.

But because of the future of the last Adam, Jesus Christ and his new humanity. This new humanity which is heavenly and is increasing all over the earth.

“So also it is written, “The first MAN, Adam, BECAME A LIVING SOUL.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man is from heaven. As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, so also are those who are heavenly.”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭15:45-48‬ ‭NASB‬‬

What “Fearing the Lord” looks like today.

“Better is a little with the fear of the LORD Than great treasure and turmoil with it.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭15:16‬ ‭NASB‬‬

What does it look like to “fear the Lord” today?

With this post I will attempt to translate “the fear of the Lord” into 2018 American English.

A man or woman who fears the Lord never takes the things of Jesus Christ lightly. Never disregards him or what she knows he wants.

When what he wants smashes against public opinion, tradition, routine, mood, or attitude. She lets him win out thoroughly and quickly.

She is intense about Jesus, not about her status within her church , not about anyone else, not about being religiously fulfilled. But she is intense about pleasing and surrendering to the person of Jesus Christ.

She may even get accused of being obsessed or overly into Jesus.

She is indifferent, laxidasical, and disregards anyone’s personal ambitions, desires and ways that interfere with those of Jesus Christ. Including and most especially her own.

Jesus wins… she loses, end of discussion!

The Axe At The Root

“God is good.”

“God is for you and not against you”

“I am who he says I am.”

Do not mean that God is also not wholly determined to crush every part of us that is not of him.

Every motive, every dream, every ambition, every talent. That is not of him and is solely of us must be crushed and overturned within us. We cannot out of goodwill apply our “goodness” (which is not really goodness at all) to him and his purposes.

Don’t be deceived by ear tickling doctrines. And don’t blame the devil when this happens.

Our religious “goodness” must be upended, uprooted, chopped down and burned up.

“The axe is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭3:10‬ ‭NASB‬‬

It’s a principle that Jesus began when in the flesh. It’s the principle of travail, death and resurrection.

Then after this travail and daily death he has an empty vessel that he can live through.

It’s his resurrection in our human vessel.

And then his kingdom can be established and increase in the earth through us.
