Christ
Jesus is a “Spirit” so that being “IN” Christ
Is
being “IN” the Spirit of Christ.
The
apostle John said that he was “In The Spirit” on the Lord's Day
When
he received The Revelation from Christ Jesus.
(Revelation
1:10)
The
Apostle John tells us:
After
this I looked, and there before me was a Door
Standing
Open in Heaven.
And
a Voice I had first heard speaking to me like a Trumpet said,
'Come
Up Here, and I will show you what must take place after this.'
At
once I was “In The Spirit”...
(Revelation
4:1, 2)
Then
the Angel carried me away “In The Spirit” into a desert.
(Revelation
17:3)
One
of the Seven Angels who had the Seven Bowls
Full
of the Last Plagues came and said to me.
'Come,
I will show you the Bride, the Wife of the Lamb.'
And
he carried me away “In The Spirit”...
(Revelation
21:9, 10)
Christ
Jesus said of King David:
'How
is it then that David, speaking “By The Spirit,”
Calls
Him Lord'?
(Matthew
22:43)
The
apostle Paul told the Saints of his experience “In The Spirit:”
I
must go on boasting.
Although
there is nothing to be gained,
I
will go on to Visions and Revelations from the Lord.
I
know a man “In Christ” who fourteen years ago
WAS
CAUGHT UP TO THE THIRD HEAVEN.
Whether
in the body or out of the body
I
do not know—God knows.
And
I know that this man—
Whether
in the body or apart from the body
I
do not know, but God knows--
WAS
CAUGHT UP TO PARADISE.
HE
HEARD INEXPRESSIBLE THINGS,
THINGS
THAT MAN IS NOT PERMITTED TO TELL.
(2
Corinthians 12:1-4)
What
is Christ Jesus' Objective for those “In His Spirit?”
He
tells us:
Father,
Protect them by the Power of your Name--
The
Name you gave Me (Lord Jesus Christ)--
SO
THAT THEY MAY BE ONE AS WE ARE ONE.
(John
17:11)
My
Prayer is not for them alone.
I
Pray also for those who will believe their Message,
THAT
ALL OF THEM MAY BE ONE,
FATHER,
JUST AS YOU ARE IN ME AND I AM IN YOU.
May
they also be “In Us”
SO
THAT THE WORLD MAY BELIEVE THAT YOU SENT ME.
I
have given them The Glory that You gave Me,
THAT
THEY MAY BE ONE AS WE ARE ONE.
I
IN THEM AND YOU IN ME.
May
they be brought to Complete Unity
TO
LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT YOU SENT ME
And
have loved them even as you have loved me.
(John
17:20-23)
How
does the World know
That
Christ Jesus was Sent by God the Father?
By
Witnessing those who are One with Christ by His Spirit--
Those
“In His Spirit”--
Those
who Reveal the Glory of God, given them by Christ.
What
is the Glory of Christ?
It
is when He reveals Himself through Miracles.
When
Christ Jesus performed His First Miracle
By
turning the water into wine, Scripture says this:
This
the First of His Miraculous Signs,
HE
THUS REVEALED HIS GLORY,
And
His Disciples put their Faith in Him.
(John
2:11)
Those
“In Christ” reveal the Glory of Christ.
What
is the Purpose of the Revealed Glory of Christ?
IT
IS, TO LET THE WORLD KNOW THAT CHRIST JESUS
WAS
SENT BY THE FATHER, GOD.
Christ
Jesus told the Jews
Who
did not believe He was the Son of God:
'Do
not believe Me unless I do what My Father does.
BUT
IF I DO IT, EVEN THOUGH YOU DO NOT BELIEVE ME,
BELIEVE THE MIRACLES,
That
you may learn and understand
THAT
THE FATHER IS IN ME,
AND
I AM IN THE FATHER.
(John
10:37, 38)
