Putting on Christ one revelation and one deed at a time.

“All have sinned and Fallen short of the Glory of God.” in the fashion of Adam. For this reason we are called to put on the Glory is to “put on Christ“, one deed at a time, one promise after another to where it can be said of you. That “ye are completed in Him who is head over all powers and principalities in Heavenly places “in Christ”, as the acquisition of putting on Christ one revelation at a time until you have His testimony confirmed in you.

This is the gospel that accords with “godliness”, meaning god-like-ness. For if you remember at the end of the book of The Revelation of the Christ, that John stooped down to worship that angel that was talking to him thinking it was Christ and the angel said ” see that you do not do that for I am (just) one of thy brethren of those who keep the testimony of Christ. Worship Him.” He was a glorified saint, as being the gift given and the expected fruit of the cross and given to the Elect. To look to His word as a mirror, to brush off the dust from Adam, to see what we must become as our part of putting on Christ, one revelation at a time, during our sojourning here in the flesh.

This is why “The word of God became flesh and dwelt among us“. And why “we beheld the glory of the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth” giving us pictures as to what we are to become like, not so much the man or we would have physical descriptions for that kind of getting dressed. It is He who is inside of us as being “spirit and truth”. And there is NO man who qualifies because of their carnal limitations, and why we are to put that off, not the flesh body as such, but to mean to put off carnal ways of thinking such as is common for self preservation. To be born again of the spirit? This is our new identity.

Here are some verses from Scripture having to do with taking off the old to put on the new man created in the image of God, as pertaining to “putting on Christ”. To mean that we put on Word and the attributes that are described therein. To be “putting off the body of the deeds of the flesh” and not the flesh itself, is “putting on Christ” who is NOT flesh such as is our outer person. That He became like us to show us that we can be like Him even before we finish our sojourning here in the flesh, and why it is a journey and not to sit and wait for an erroneous 2nd coming. (A phrase not found once in scripture). Lest you become found with the slothful stewards who say, “my master delays his coming”, when He comes to us even now. Oh the burning sensation of lost opportunities. Coulda, shoulda, woulda. To then be told “depart from Me you workers of iniquity for I do not know you from where you are from”, because they were left wanting and waiting, and the feast doors were closed, with them outside and out of view, because they did not make this correlation.

And because “In Him dwells the fullness of the godhead body, (we’ve entered into, and now) “we are complete in Him who is head over all” in the same way. Then we can enter His rest and cease from our works as our prototype the Christ has done for an example on how to do it. That we recognized our part and did it to be done. He did NOT give us a task we could NOT do.

This is having “run the race with endurance”. Then to be “seated waiting for our enemies to become our footstools” too. To mean we rest from the doubts and fears associated with their scary non-stop presentations which are many, because we have been given the opportunity to enter into Christ’s rest too. That putting on Christ is a do-able goal. Then to have time left to spare as we watch the events unfold from here. That we become spectators too.

That is what it means to “enter His rest”. This is what “the gospel according to godliness” delivered to us. And the word “accord” infers to a synchronization of persons. To be “in and of Christ” is the place of the seventh day rest the gospel delivers. Other wise how could we be invited to enter it?

This is why the Godhead body is a plurality of persons in one body. And we become one with and in that One body as “living stones built up a habitation of God in the Spirit, our new place and identity”. And we don’t have to wait for our body to expire to enjoy this fullness. We do however anticipate the greater gathering at the completion of the edict that went out to “Go ye therefore to the ends of the earth and the end of the age, teaching and preaching all I have commanded you”. To include us. For there remains a rest to the people of God, That those who have entered that rest, have ceased from their works as God did from His. Let us fear lest you fall short of it”? That may seem a little stern, but necessary. He did not leave us here without the tools to complete our task.

The Trade Off Takes Place Like This

2.(The Father) made Him who knew no sin, to become our sin, for us to become the righteousness of God in Him”? Some call this the “Transubstantiation”, to refer to where the transference of Christ likeness to you to become like Him takes place, “in the spirit of the mind”. And because He was with the Father in the beginning’ and His very image. Christ put on a copy of us without diminishing anything of Himself (John 1.1-3), so that we in turn would then put on a copy of Him to be like Him, for us to diminish no more. And because His original construction was NOT flesh but invisible code called word, it is who become the very aspects those words describe, that we put on and become in the spirit of our minds too. In this way we complete our cycle back to the Father “in the name of Christ” as His family member. That “He made Him who knew no sin, to become our sin for us to become His righteousness in Him”. To removed the road blocks. For us to in turn put off, NOT the flesh but the deeds of the flesh associated with a faithless way of thinking. AS we were instructed to “Be ye renewed in the spirit of our mind”. This is how your transition place.

Here below are some verses from scripture that tell us what to put on and what we are as becoming “Saints and Holy Ones”. To refer to Christs righteousness gifted to us from the cross for our discovery, our recovery, and our being re-imaged back to “That which is from the beginning” (John 1.1+14) This would be your job well done!

Matthew 6.25 “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. For life is more than food and the body more than clothing.

Did you get that? Put on the bond of perfection??? You can do it, and as you see now, whatever blockages you may have had, can be erased and replaced with the truth. That YES, old things having passed away, behold all things are new, and all things are from Christ” and not from a department store because we cloth our insides, our invisible parts we learn to see in this way and type of dialogue.

So now maybe these words below from Peter may set these truths in cement.

1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in this knowledge of God and of Christ our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which WE have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may (NOW) be partakers of the divine nature, having  (already) escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 And also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue (add) knowledge, 6 to knowledge(add) self-control, to self-control (add) perseverance, to perseverance (add) godliness, 7 to godliness (add) brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness (add) love. 8 For (not if but sinse) these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in what we know of our Lord and Christ. 9 For those who lacks these things (is because they) have become shortsighted, even to blindness, and (they) have forgotten that they have been cleansed from their old sinfulness. 10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to (press in and) make your call and election sure, for in doing these things (and understand this) you will never stumble;

So now with these clarifications, to then use scripture for anything other than Gods recreated, restored images will likely just be feel good distractions because these writings are meant for our personal growth in godliness, to mean our own transformation and  transfiguration. To “work out your own salvation with fear and trembling for it is God who works in you for His own good pleasure.” So that you are not going it alone. Amen!

And so we have said and still say;

The Kingdom of God is at hand” in this way. Still!
