We’re in the interim between the promise and the full possession of the promise. As you direct your mind toward Christ the Holy Spirit will continue to form Christ in you until that day when no one can trick you.

You and I need to be open to discussing our beliefs with other Christians who may see things differently. I need to open myself to correction and consider that I might be wrong. If you disagree with another Christian on any matter, you can both go to Christ and ask Him to correct and instruct you. No one is above God’s correction. It’s easy for fallen humans to think they have such complete and correct doctrine that God can’t teach them anything. God says you don’t understand those things you think you understand. God gave you the Holy Spirit to lead you into ALL truth.

And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know. ~ 1 Corinthians 8:2 New King James Version

You need to open your mind to God so He can teach you and correct you. You will hear many convincing messages that sound perfect but are not right. God will show you what’s right and what’s wrong if you ask Him. If you want to do God’s will, you will know God’s voice when you hear it. You’ll see that God’s voice is different from all the others. God will help you avoid the pitfalls of the many worldly voices.

It’s wonderful that you have Jesus Christ leading, teaching, and correcting you, but that’s just the first key God has given you. God intends to fully transfigure you into the likeness and image of Jesus Christ. God’s already shown you a little bit of His vision for you. As you walk with Him, He’ll show you more. It’s higher and deeper than you know. To go deeper, you’ll need all five keys. You need to know how to insert each key in sequence into God’s puzzling lock. You need to know how to avoid Satan’s deceptions and pitfalls. Satan will be working against you all the way, but God has given you a way to escape Satan’s schemes.

God Builds Using His Word

It’s common to read about “the word” in the Bible and assume that when the Bible says “the word” it means “the Bible.” That’s not the meaning of the original language, however. The Bible is God’s word because God speaks through the Bible. Not only so, but God has so infused the Bible with His Spirit that no one can read the Bible without God speaking to them. This is true even for those who never recognize God’s voice.  Even so, when you read the term “word” in the Bible, the original language says “a spoken statement,” “an utterance,” or “a sentence.” God speaks. That’s what the Bible is telling us when we see the term “word.” When the Father spoke to you that first time, He spoke His Word to you. Man shall live “by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Father.” (Mt. 4:4)

WHO IS THE WORD OF THE FATHER? “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Everything that God made, He made with His Word. He spoke, and it was. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” (Jn. 1:1-14) God means exactly what He is saying. This Word mentioned in the first chapter of John is a spoken statement or utterance, and that spoken statement is Christ. This isn’t figurative poetry.

God created the universe by speaking that Word. Thousands of years later the Holy Spirit overshadowed Mary, and the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us. We may not understand it, but the Spirit assures us that it’s true. The songwriter who wrote “Oh Come All Ye Faithful” saw it when He wrote the words, “Word of the Father, Now in flesh appearing.” That Word always has been with God and has been God, but the Word was made flesh at the appointed time.

Consider the power of the Word the Father speaks through us by the Holy Spirit. That Word, by which God leads us, was the same Word by which God created the universe. And now, that same Word is holding the universe together. (Co. 1:15-17) And we live by every Word that comes from the mouth of God. (Mt. 4:4) The Word of God was made to be Jesus Christ. “He (Christ) is not only the head of the church but all powers were created by Him and He is the head of them all. His plan is to assume this power through His body, the church.” (A. M. Hinchliff) We have partially tapped into the power of hearing, seeing, and speaking the words of God, but God is calling us higher. We can sense the depths of this great river of life, and long to swim in the current of God’s plan, but we must yield to its flow and surrender to its chosen path. Brother Herrick Holt wrote, “Being led of the Spirit will bring you into sonship.” The secret to growing in Christ is listening and yielding exclusively to the leading of the Holy Spirit. All righteousness, holiness, ministry, and order flow from this simplicity of grace through faith that comes by hearing this Word of the Father.

God’s already shown you a little bit of His vision for you.

God intends to fully transfigure you into the likeness and image of Jesus Christ.

Romans 8:28-29 “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose . . . to be conformed to the image of His Son . . .

2 Corinthians 3:18 “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.”

Romans 1:17 ‘For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”’

God intends to fully transfigure you into the likeness and image of Jesus Christ.
