Christ: God's Standard


Each of us is to look at ourselves in relationship to Christ
And no one else. (Hebrews 12:2)

The Christ of God is God's Standard for all human behavior and conduct
For each person, His Church and every nation.
He is the Word of God made flesh. (John 1:14)
His commands are irrevocable.
When heaven and earth have passed away they remain Eternally.
(Matthew 24:25)
He has commanded His people to be Holy as He is Holy [1 Peter 1:16];
To be Perfect as He is Perfect [Matthew 5:48];
To be like King David, men and women after His Own heart. (Acts 13:22)

Obedience to Christ is the only WAY to Eternal LIFE.
That is Christ living in and through you; simple but profound.
(John 14:6)

REPENTANCE is the first step. (Matthew 4:17)
We are all born into sin; into a fallen world
That is ruled by Satan and is the enemy of Christ. (2 Corinthians 4:4)
We are born spiritually dead
And unless we REPENT we remain spiritually dead. (John 3:7)
ALL who have not REPENTED before the Christ of God are spiritually dead.

We must be Born Again! (John 3:7)
Unless we are Born Again we remain spiritually dead.

We must seek, wait for and receive out personal Day of Pentecost.
We must be baptized with the Holy Spirit and with Fire as Christ commanded.
This is what it means to drink the Living Water
That Christ promised to those who are thirsty.
Only those who drink this Living Water are alive in Christ;
This is the Water of LIFE that comes from the River of LIFE,
That nourishes the Tree of LIFE; the LIFE of Paradise;
Christ in us our hope of Glory. (Acts 1:4-8)

We must walk as Christ walked; we must live as Christ lived,
In complete obedience to His Father in Heaven;
Doing what the Father does and saying what the Father speaks.
Which can only be done by Christ living in and through us.
We must ABIDE in Him, or we can do nothing of value for His Kingdom.
(1 John 2:6)

We must give up our lives in this life to find the LIFE of Christ.
If we try to find our lives in this life we will lose Eternal LIFE;
Only if we loose our lives for Christ do we find His LIFE.
(Matthew 10:39)

We must eat His flesh and drink His blood [John 6:25-65)];
We must be consummately identified with Him or we have no part of Him.
Christ is the Living bread that has come from God.
If we eat this Living Bread we live if we do not dead remain dead spiritually.

We must be filled with the oil of the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 25)
We cannot be like the five foolish virgins
Who were not ready to receive the Bridegroom, Christ, when He came.

We must worship the Father in Spirit and in TRUTH. (John 4:21-24)
These are the people that God seeks.
True worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and in TRUTH.

We must bear fruit for the Kingdom of God. (John 15:16)
Christ chose us to bear fruit for the Kingdom of God.
We must use what Christ has given us; our Talents, for His Kingdom.
Understanding that we have nothing that He has not given us.

We must maintain our First Love for Christ. (Revelation 2:1-7)
Otherwise we will not be received by Christ when He returns.

We must OVERCOME Satan and this world he rules [Revelation 12:11]
By the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony;
Not loving this life so much as to shrink from death.
Then we will be among the called, chosen and faithful ones
Who enter into the JOY of the Lord;
Those who enter Zion with singing;
Everlasting JOY crowns their heads.
Gladness and JOY will overtakes them,
And sorrow and sighing will flee away. (Isaiah 51:11)

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
