This is part of a series of books in which particular verses are picked from books of the bible, and the issues of Spiritual Identity are explored, in the light of the mind of God for us.
In this book, we explore four topics, from different verses in the books of 1Corinthians, 2Corinthians and Galatians. They are: Activators of grace and peace; God in us;“I am God’s dwelling place”; and Son of the free woman.
Excerpts:
Activators of grace and peace
“When we preach the gospel of peace (Ephesians 6:15) we give others the opportunity to come into peace with God. When we understand our ministry of reconciliation, we would with earnestness tell people that God was in Christ reconciling to the world to himself, not willing that anyone perish but to come to salvation, telling them that the unrest in them is because of their being outside of God’s peace orbit. And that Peace orbit is Jesus Christ (Matthew 11:28-30).”
God in us
“The word has impact. The word manifests the glory of God. When the light of the word of God shines, it banishes darkness, it elevates us as we ride on its wings and we are healed by the word through which the wisdom of God is manifested.”
“I am God’s dwelling place”
“Am I contradicting myself? No, we have a new spirit from God which is the Holy Spirit, which is God in us. Jesus has the Spirit of God without measure and we are part of his body and share of his Spirit, the Holy Spirit, which is, at once our individual Spirit and the eternal Spirit of God. That is God in ones with man, the way he wants, and all these through Jesus Christ.”
Son of the free woman
“In the present we take on his life and walk in it, walking in righteousness. Presently we have eternal life (John 3:16). In the present we come to the throne of grace to obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. And for now and in the future we are guaranteed no condemnation (Romans 8:1).”
