The Body of Christ.

The Gospel starts with Christ sacrificing His physical body for us, He gave it to us. Yes His physical body hung bare and nearly naked on the cross, but the body given to us was His body of who He was before “The Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1). That in the beginning He was Word of God first and then He”dwelt among us” as representations for both dimensions, flesh and Spirit. His flesh was Adams replacement to put humanity back on track to that which was before the fall.

But the new life that He gave us through that sacrifice at the Cross, was His Spiritual self of God in Him, broken down into words of spiritual conceptual realities, so that we in turn put off “the body of the sins” as the “deeds of the flesh”, and not so much the flesh itself because the flesh body you inhabit, is the innocent bystander, and is incapable of sin without your promptings. And just as vessels such as are used for transportation cannot be charged with wrong doing, because the driver is responsible, so too, our flesh body was the innocent bi-stander..

So now our new body is a spiritual body like Christ was before He “became flesh and dwelt among us”. As we “the called” are instructed to “put on Christ”. And we do this one revelation at a time, one after another for as much as you can, so that the verse becomes true in you. That “you are complete in Him who is the Head over All principalities and powers in Christ” being now free from the charges laid upon humanity, to as many as walk according to their carnal leanings. So that for us to be completely like Him, is based upon what we think, say and do and not who we see in the mirror. Our mirror is “Word”. This is us “with (unveiled) open face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Christ, are transfigured into His self same same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit.

And to be “by the Spirit” means NOT the man in the mirror of the flesh but “WORD”. So as we look into His Word, and why it has to be mentally and “spiritually discerned” and consumed.

Word is for our spiritual consumption. And when we are complete we are in  “The consummation of our fullness of time to be gathered together in one, to that One” of things in Heaven from earth. We do this mentally as guided by the Holy Spirit, and not in a carnal way.

So when Christ said to “take and eat, this is My body”. Then they broke bread and ate, that was Him teaching them in parable form, of how to consume Word. “For without a parable spake He not to the people”. His eternal flesh is word that we consume to become like Him as we are immersed in The Holy Spirit. (John 1.1). That we put Him on one revelation at a time, one after another until it can be said of us too, that “we are completed in Him who is head over all principalities and powers”.

Now because of that, we then as “living stones” not really” stones but solid truths, “are built up a habitation for God in the spirit”. This is our new abode. That “flesh and bone does not inherit the Kingdom of God”, but we say that the re-spirited mind of faith does, and it does so with the immediacy of our ability to receive Him as He is (John 1.1) Speaking of the Son of God who was introduced as “The Word of God” first, who is also “the fullness of the Godhead body”. That is what we become as well, as Them living inside of us. And we say “them” just as a matter of understanding the components of God, of which were broken down in vernacular into three co-equal parts for our understanding only. But God is “Echad” meaning cohesively joined. The Greek word for One.

So then for us who are His body (of believers) attached to Him as our Head, as His “living stones, assembled together in these truths, this is a Gods habitation in the Spirit”, in the here and now!

That “wherever two or more are gathered, there I am in their midst.” This has nothing to do with brick and mortar churches made of men’s devising. Such man made structures are distractions and can only obscure these truths. We are His living stones being His building project of like elements, and we are His body of believers in a dying world.

Yes, the resurrected body of Christ is His building of which He is the head of. That He assembles us “for a habitation for God in the spirit.”

This is “the general assembly” of His body of believers, and members of His household, the House of God.

For in truth, every time the word “Church” appears in scripture, it gives the illusion that a man-made building has some kind of importance to the Godhead body. But even in the Law era, they were told “when you build a temple (dwelling) for Me, you shall not use hewn stone, for in the day you do so, you have defiled IT. Do not associate Me with such!” (meaning  man cut brick). Because God does not want us to associate His body with manmade buildings, churches, cathedrals or anything else visual, because His members are peoples souls. That is how we are His Living Stones, His body and witnesses in a dying world. “Flesh and blood does not inherit the Kingdom”, but the re-spirited mind of faith does, as immediately as it may receive this by faith.

The point is, the Gospel preached as ‘The Kingdom of God at hand” is eschewed by images of man-made structures. That His body of believers is His body of “living stones built up a habitation for God in the spirit”. This is “wherever two or more are assembled and gathered in My name, there I am in their midst.”

This is the communion and common union of the saints, speaking of your Eternal part of spirit and truths as distinctly different and in contrast to all your physical features.

Our Conversion.

That we are in the process of putting of the body of the deeds of the flesh, so as not to mix with the ways of old. That “all things pass away, behold all things become new and all things are from God” to mean His escense of Spirit and Truth, who brings us together (in Christ). And the “all things are from God, has to do with the carnally invisible. And it started with them going city to ciry to assemble as “living stones” referring to Eternal truths”built u a habitation for God in the Spirit”. And “wherever two or more are gathered (and assembly) in My name, there I am assembled in their midst”. So as not to be confused by man-made brick and mortar cathedrals or churches.

Even as Christ said to the Jews “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. He was not speaking of their brick built temple but His body of believers of which He is the head. His carnal/physical body was taken to the cross, buried and “raised a spiritual habitation of God in the spirit”. To mean, a body of beliefs into believers.  in Whom ye also are built together for a habitation of God through the Spirit.

But the Jews argued

20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? 21 But Jesus spake of the temple of his body. whose body we are. We are the raised in His resurrection. Even as the Holy Spirit in Isaiah says “Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise!” And so we did.

And because “In the Beginning was the Word, the word was with God and the Word was God.” When we dress the spirit of our minds with WORD, meaning Christ who “Of His own will begat he us with the word of truth, for us to be a kind of firstfruits of His creatiins. (Of kind begats kind to be His kind.

That we are a kind of first-fruits of His creation, through the transformation process of Word.

That Christ was the dissemination of the genetics of the Father, left here in Word form for our retrieval to have and to own to be One with them, with the same immediacy as when He first said “Let there be light”.

Even as Christ prayed and said “Father, I would like for those whom you have given Me to be one with Me, that where I am, they may be also”. And that The Word returned to the Father and now calls us there, “seated in Christ far above all principalities and powers in Heavenly places in Christ” to become a foregone conclusion before the expiration of our carnal body because we have this one time to do so.

As we learn from the final chapter in canonized scripture” 11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

To mean, to what you have attained, walk ye in it.” And reach out to lay hold of why Christ laid hold of you.” And “reach out for the prize and the upward call of God in Christ.”

So don’t get stuck in the Old Law Covenant sacrifices as such that are just blasphemous rejections of the one time sacrifice of “The Lamb of God who took away the sin of the world”. To mean that  their sacrifices were to teach them about the “Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world”. That the continual sacrifices and spilling of blood DID NOT PLEASE THE FATHER! That is why all their efforts were blasphemous so that “how many were righteous? None! No not one!” (Romans 3)

Modern Day Jewery

For even as with their temple again today, they are expecting another scenario as in the days of old by associating all their man-made devising as trying to duplicate the days of Old Testament times that were meant as teaching toys for “children” and destroyed because they never transitioned their physical actions into the real, eternal in the heavens of our minds. So to do as they did, will receive a worse punishment then the last time the Jews pursued such a blasphemous notion. The transition is us to Him and not the other way around. For God to manifest Himself here is not who He is. And the call still today is that “The Kingdom of God is at Hand, in the same way it was meant when Christ first spoke it. To be intended for the spirit of your mind where our renewal takes place.

And how can it ever be said that you put on Christ if you don’t understand these truths? He became one of us, transformed and transfigured, and now calls us to Himself to be like Himself, born of WORD and born of the Spirit!! That “when we see Him as He is we will shall become like Him”?

Our whole sojourning here now is for our transference and transfiguration from the temporary to the Eternal. And this can ONLY be done by Word and Spirit because that is who and what was left for us to do so. This is the gospel. Amen!

For they never associated with the Eternal they were to be learning about, and instead thought God was a bloody God needing a death dose through animal sacrifices, when all those pictures were foretelling broken down in understanding for their consumption but they rejected Christ at the cross and said “Yes! Let His blood be upon us and our children”. And so it was. “They knew not the time of their visitation” and His coming because they were expecting a King on a studly horse and rejected the pauper on a donkey.

Even as we are instructed for communion with bread. These are parables too. That “without a parable spake He not to the people”. He said “Take and eat this as My body, take and eat all of Me”. These are referring to Him as “The bread of life from Heaven who gives life to the world.” To mean word. One revelation at after another, Once again using physical parables to promote invisible realities as having to do with “The Kingdom of God at hand”.

That is itself a call into the invisible as well, as using physical counterparts to convey invisible realities “in Christ”. So that if we are in Christ, we should be able to prove this through words because He is Word first. And we become word after. This is us eating Him who said, “take and eat, eat all of Me”. Is to speak and testify to the things that we’ve seen and heard (in the Spirit) and no one (using a carnal perspective) receives our testimony.” That these all have spiritual values. That God is Spirit and Truth and seeketh such. To expect Him to come again in the flesh, is to insult Him. For scripture says “when we see Him as He is, we shall become like Him”. Is not meant for this world. For “He came into His own, but His own did NOT receive Him” back then, “but to as many as did (and do) receive Him (as He is Word) to them He gave power to become His children, even those that believe”. And this “to them He gave power to become” has to do with becoming something that the word describes as being actual, factual, relevant and true as soon as you do. Amen!

That He comes as “The breath of His mouth and the Brightness of His coming” is like Paul experienced at his conversion where he saw “the blinding light brighter than the mid day sun”.

This is what dropped Paul to his knees where he said “who are you Lord”. And Christ answered as that bright light, that “revelation light” that we all experience as we hope you receive here to become the new you. That for us to be assembled together with these truths, we are the body of Christ, being a body of words first, to become phrases, become realities, and edicts that becomes an assembly and body of truths from the Godhead Body living in us so that we can have our sole, soul dependency there, in Word, thee Word that made all things. That we go back to the beginning to where the fount of words started from and quit fighting against the waves of distractions that try to keep you of guard by saving yourself with the worlds instrumentation’s. Why? Because flesh and bone does not inherit the Kingdom, (so quit pandering to it) but the re-spirited mind of faith does. And it does so with the immediacy of your ability to receive it it in the form it is presented to us. How else can the Kingdom of God be at hand ?.

We are the Body of Christ! A reassembled body of words. Gods Word!

In this way, The Kingdom of God is at hand, even now! Amen!
