What is maturity then? Maturity is a state of purity with Christ fully formed within and the works of the flesh put to death.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

You must grow up. Being born again is necessary, but the new birth just starts God’s salvation in you. You’re born again so you can grow to maturity.

What is maturity then? Maturity is a state of purity with Christ fully formed within and the works of the flesh put to death. Maturity has two parts: edification and purification.

Edification means building up. The Holy Spirit is forming Christ within you. He’s building you into the image and likeness of Jesus Christ.

Purification is sanctification or holiness. God is purifying you. He’s removing the carnal, rebellious, fleshly nature that fights against God.

You need Christ. You can’t build yourself up without Christ. You can’t purify yourself without Christ. God has a plan and a method. God’s sovereignty and your responsibility work together. You have a responsibility. Your responsibility is to yield to Him. You must respond to God. You respond by listening to His voice and yielding in willing submission and obedience to His grace. You yield the members of your body, your tongue, your feet, hands, and entire being, as tools God can use for righteousness. If you yield to God, you stop fighting against God. Your responsibility is to stop fighting God.

What is your high calling in Christ? How do you take hold of it?

What is your high calling in Christ? How do you take hold of it? How do you overcome the enemy’s efforts to keep you from taking hold of it? Allow the Holy Spirit to lead you. That will bring you into sonship. “For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading again to fear [of God’s judgment], but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons [the Spirit producing sonship]” (Romans 8:15a).

If we’re led by the Holy Spirit, then we will know those whom God sent and gave authority

If we’re led by the Holy Spirit, then we obey the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will lead us to obey those within the body to whom God has delegated authority. We will know those whom God sent and gave authority, and the Holy Spirit is installing us in our exclusive, preordained positions in this body. God determines the gift, ministry, and office, and nothing can alter God’s design. What happens when the Lord fully comes in His body? We will “all come in the unity of the faith and knowledge of the Son of God to One Perfect Man to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.” (Ephesians 4:11-13) The Bible calls this the manifestation of the sons of God. It’s the “coming” (Greek: parousia) of Christ. That’s when the Holy Spirit has transfigured us all into the image and likeness of Christ. And we will operate in total surrender to Christ, our Head. The entire body will follow God’s pattern as it is defined in Scripture. Come, Lord Jesus. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)

Create in Me a Clean Heart

God creates a clean heart in you the same way He created the heavens and the earth. He uses the same term for both creations.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. ~ Genesis 1:1

Create in me a clean heart. ~ Psalm 51:10a

The Bible uses the same Hebrew term for creating in both verses.

As we assemble ourselves together as a body, we must identify Christ as He unveils Himself in His body.

We can’t answer God’s calling in an effort of self-sufficiency that’s detached from Christ the body. Christ the body isn’t a hodgepodge of competitive churches. God fits us into Christ the body. He designed the body, so we can expect three things. The body will move in God’s order, which God recorded in Scripture. It will move in unity. This body will do the will of the Father. As we assemble ourselves together as a body, we must identify Christ as He unveils Himself in His body. There won’t be any independent ministries in this body. No one will claim to be a chief or a predominant member. The only chief apostle, elder, ministry, or pastor will be Jesus Christ in heaven. The offices and ministries defined in Scripture will be operating. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)

Your fleshly nature may be trying to draw you into sin. It tells you lies.

Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation, but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. ~ Romans 8:13-14
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

For example, your fleshly nature may be trying to draw you into sin. It tells you lies. It tells you to do things you shouldn’t do. Then, the Holy Spirit brings a memory to your mind. It may be some truth from a Bible teacher you heard long ago. It might be a verse of Scripture like this:

So you too must count yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its desires. ~ Romans 6:11-12

It might be this verse:

Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation, but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. ~ Romans 8:12-14

God may bring a word you heard long ago in a church service. You don’t remember anything about the church service. And yet, the Holy Spirit brings a word of truth from that service to your mind. The Holy Spirit may speak to you this way:

That’s your flesh lying to you. You don’t have to do it. You don’t owe anything to your flesh. Listen to Christ and walk in His righteousness.

Christ is the Foundation of the church. We can’t just build any way we want.

Christ is the Foundation of the church. We can’t just build any way we want to on this Foundation. We must listen to the direction of the Holy Spirit and build according to that leading and by the power of the Spirit. He does the work through us. God will use fire to try every work because the church is the manifestation of Christ on earth.

“Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.” (1 Corinthians 3:13)

God is constructing a temple. He’s building it through us. He directs us to build according to the blueprint He laid out in the Bible. This blueprint isn’t a set of rules. It’s the person of Christ.

God is constructing a temple. He’s building it through us. He directs us to build according to the blueprint He laid out in the Bible. This blueprint isn’t a set of rules. It’s the person of Christ. And the temple isn’t without a foundation. The pattern consists of gifts, ministries, operations, offices, and orders. God imparts the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit by appointing a group of elders to lay hands on those He indicates and prophesying over them. The gifts grow into ministries as members of Christ’s body yield themselves to the indwelling Christ. Christ is the ministry in each one. The Father operates the gifts and ministries according to His love and wisdom. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)
