THE CROSS AND REVIVAL

THE CROSS AND REVIVAL
By Jesse Penn-Lewis

If we look back at the messages of the preceding meetings we can see why Revival comes into view at this juncture. In the Revival in Wales the outstanding theme was the message of Calvary. It is only when we see the Cross as the centre, and the basis of all the working of the Holy Spirit that Revival becomes possible. Let us now seek to understand some of the laws and perils of Revival even when we know something of the various aspects of the Cross. In dealing with this subject I will embody matter from a manuscript which was intended to form part of the last chapter of 'War on the Saints', and for some cause it was omitted. It has its origin in lessons learned in the Revival in Wales. First let us define briefly that Revival, in its essence, is the outflow of the Spirit of God through the human spirit. This is in harmony with what Fausset, the well-known evangelical commentator, says about the human spirit. He writes, "The spirit of man is the receptacle of the Holy Spirit, and is the organ in which He dwells, and through which He works". You will see, by this simple definition, how vitally all the truths of the Cross, and the laws of the spiritual life, which we have been considering, affect the question of 'Revival'. Now let us ask, What are the primary conditions for Revival, apart from prayer? First, the negative: the removal of all obstacles to the outflow of the Spirit. This brings in the work of the Cross applied by the Spirit of God. Second, the positive: understanding how to co-operate with the Holy Spirit of God. This brings in the life-side of the Cross, the inflow of the Holy Spirit and the believer learning experimentally how to walk in the spirit. Now as to some of the main 'obstacles'. (i) In the spirit an unbending, unforgiving, grasping spirit. (2) In the life ignorance of what is right and what is wrong, so that things which hinder the Holy Spirit are tolerated. (3) In the service of God-unwillingness to speak of the things of God, and to testify. For dealing with the obstacles is needed- (i) The cleansing of the spirit (2 Corinthians 7: 1), by the putting away of unyieldedness; the forgiving of those who have trespassed against us, the surrender of a 'grasping' spirit by giving up all to God. (2) The seeking of light from God upon 'right' and 'wrong' in the life, and the putting things right as the light is given. (3) The surrender to God for obedience to the monitions of the Holy Spirit in the way of speech and testimony. Here comes in the Blood to cleanse all that the light reveals, and the Cross in its delivering power, setting free the believer by his identification with Christ in His death, applied by the Holy Spirit. Now as to the perils of Revival: These again primarily may be briefly defined as, (i) the danger of acting or living by 'feeling', or the sensuous life, instead of the spirit-life; and (2) the peril arising from the spirits of evil counterfeiting the workings of the Holy Spirit. Alongside of the danger of becoming dominated by 'feelings' and emotions, the perils of Revival come mainly from the invisible world of spirits. The Counterfeiter is watching to counterfeit, and to insert his workings in the place of God's workings. The fact became clear again and again in Wales, during the height of the 1905 Revival, that it was possible for God to begin with a pure work of the Holy Spirit, and for the counterfeiting spirits to insert a 'counterfeit' which the soul ignorantly accepted. In this way the same manifestations appeared, but the source was changed without it being detected. The changing of the source of the supernatural manifestations without the believer's cognizance is therefore the main peril. A very small inserted 'stream', or 'tincture' from the enemy, causes mixture which may not be discerned at first, but which sooner or later produces fruit in confusion and trouble. In view of this danger-the principle danger-if we pray for Revival, we should pray God to prepare intelligent and spiritually equipped children of God to guide and help His people. Believers who know the ways of God, and who know the ways of the enemy, and are really endued by God with the power of discerning spirits, able to tell at once when the source of spiritual phenomena is changed. Such souls can discern when the spirit working in a meeting is changed from pure to counterfeit, and know how to deal with the spurious spirit, and how to bring the gathering back into the pure stream of God again. This occurred in the Revival in Wales many times, and those who watched the leadership of the one who was thus 'discerning' the spirits at work, marvelled. I recollect once being in a meeting in England where the atmosphere was as pure as crystal. The spirit sense, when it knows God, can sense atmosphere, and where God is in great power there is a sense of the 'terrible crystal' Ezekiel spoke about. It then seems as if the atmosphere is so transparent that everything in it out of harmony with God seems repulsive and painful. The atmosphere of the meeting referred to was like this, when one who was present rose to pray, and immediately it seemed as if a muddy stream was poured into the meeting, filling the atmosphere with a sense of 'thickness', and the pure and beautiful clearly crystal sense of the Holy Presence of God was gone. That soul had prayed from the sensuous soulish life, and not from the spirit. Those who have this acute and sensitive consciousness of what is 'spirit' and what is 'soul'-or sensuous-can detect it in themselves by the sound of the voice, which becomes 'metallic' or harsh, when the believer draws upon his 'natural' resources, but when he speaks from the spirit there is an exquisite softness, and purity in the voice, which makes the tone beautiful. Ah yes, everything that comes from the Spirit of God is beautiful. There is nothing repulsive-nothing that you would shrink away from-so beware of forcing yourself to accept, as of God, what your spirit shrinks from as repulsive. So many to-day are being drawn into counterfeits because they do not remember this. Let us have a right conception of God's presence. Where He is in power you get a foretaste of heaven, and this heavenly presence is felt by your spirit, not your soul, i.e., your physical consciousness. "God is a Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth." Alas! that so many to-day should be deceived as to their true spiritual state, by the effort made in many churches to appeal to the sensuous, and the natural love of the beautiful, through beautiful music, and attractive singing, which will count for nothing in eternity. If it is true that "God is a Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit", of what avail is all the sensuous worship caused through the soothing, or satiating of soul-desires, with no real knowledge of God or His gospel. Let us see to it ourselves that our worship of God is in spirit, and in truth. As we have seen, the chief peril of Revival is, that when God begins to work in abnormal power, the counterfeiter has his opportunity. It is then that, what a writer in America calls 'the high order spirits', the religious spirits, that 'hover upon the Alps of the spiritual life', hover about those who are entering realms of the spirit they have never known before. Not the gross and repulsive spirits, but refined and beautiful spirits, are the ones most to be feared. When Paul said that Satan had transformed himself into an 'angel of light', he plainly meant that Satan can appear to be light when he himself is all darkness. He can give 'flashes of light' and 'floods of light', and fill a room with light. Can you tell when they are from the enemy? All that we have been learning about the Cross will equip us to meet these 'perils'. Therefore if we pray for and desire Revival, we must ask God to enable us to apprehend the truths that will fit us to be of use to Him when it comes. Now lastly, let us summarize some hints on how to conduct meetings to bring about Revival, or during a time of Revival -which means during a time when the Spirit of God is working in great power-for these 'hints' are adaptable and 'Revival'-true Revivalcannot be worked up by methods. These hints are only to show how to co-work with the Holy Spirit on the right occasion, so as to give Him full liberty to work. We have seen that 'Revival' is the result of an influx into and an outflow from the human regenerated spirit. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit, or the enduement of power, therefore brings into acute consciousness the spirit sense, which, if .we learn to read it correctly, will teach us how to co-work with the Holy Spirit in the conducting of a meeting, not only as He moves through our own spirit, but as He moves in the spirit of others. 1. First as to the leader of the meeting: The leader should be one chosen of God, and equipped by the power of the Holy Spirit. He must therefore be: (i) Baptized with the Spirit, so that he is conscious of the spirit sense referred to, whereby he knows the mind of the Spirit in himself, and is able to discern it in others. (2) The leader, thus open to the leading of the Holy Spirit, should be able to speak at any moment as the need arises free from dependence on notes, or aids to memory. To guide the meeting under the guidance of the Spirit, he needs to be able to speak 'as the Spirit gives utterance, and to know the right moment and the right message. (3) The leader must never let go the reins of the meeting, leading throughout, although he may outwardly appear to be taking no part at all. I may illustrate the importance of this by a concrete example. I was once watching a huge gathering where one who had been greatly used in Revival in another land, was present, and the meeting was given over to him. He spoke just a few words, and then placing his watch upon the desk, he bowed his head in prayer, and deliberately let go the meeting as if he had nothing to do with it. It could be seen that he had taken his hands right off it. That is, he did not continue to inwardly hold it, by watching, and readiness to intervene. The result was startling. The moment he 'let go', there was a wild outburst from a section of that meeting, which was indescribable. There was a 'hissing' as if serpents were there, and a wailing noise like the whistling of the wind in the rigging of a ship in a storm. The leader did not attempt to deal with this, and there was no regaining of the control of that gathering-it was practically wrecked. No work of God could be done in that atmosphere. This shows that when God gives charge of a meeting to any one, he is responsible to hold it for God, and to rely upon the Holy Spirit in directly quenching any inroads of the spirits Of Satan. No one could pretend that the outburst I have described was of God. (4) The leader must keenly watch the meeting, seeking, in reliance upon God, discernment when to touch it (outwardly), and when to leave it alone; and when to move with God in song, or prayer, or message. 2. Second, AS TO THE MEETING: a programme of prearranged plan is no hindrance, for it can be used if there is no discernable movement of the Holy Spirit among the people. But the leader must be ready to drop the 'programme' when the Spirit of God shows him to do so. But the meeting should not be allowed to 'take its own course' until the Holy Spirit is undoubtedly at work among the people. We saw this to-day in the Prayer Conference. There was a blessed working of the Holy Spirit, and He was in control. The last quarter of an hour, all who prayed, prayed in the spirit. It is a great sign that the Holy Ghost is in control when people are 'condensed' and to the point, with no garrulousness of the 'flesh'- It is the atmosphere that is the great thing. When God is fully in control you will find that the meeting will need very little guiding by the leader. The intrusion of fleshly activity at any point should at once be dealt with. This can be done by taking the meeting to prayer, or by the leader speaking. The 'flesh' must never be allowed to take control of a rneeting, even though it may break in for a brief period. The leader should watch how to check it, and eliminate its effects by some Spirit-guided course of action. The leader should also be on guard and keenly ready to discern any breaking out of evil spirits, who are always watching to insert their own stream when there is any movement by God. By the discerning of spirits, which is given with the enduement of power, a leader who knows the life after the Spirit, can detect the first trace of the working of the enemy. He need not tell the people of this, but by prayer, or a message of truth, or silent resistance (in spirit) he can quickly extinguish their workings. 3.. Third, how to get a 'heavy' meeting into liberty. (i) The 'burdens' on all present may first be removed by asking for audible prayer, or expression of need. People go to a meeting burdened with their own troubles, and with their spirits crushed or weighted. Burdened in spirit, they are not open to God because they are burdened. The leader begins to speak to them, and think them 'so hard'. But they are not 'hard'-they are burdened. It would probably 'liberate' the meeting if at first all could be free to express their burdens, either in prayer or by asking for prayer of others. (2) The leader should take time to get the meeting free. When it is free from weight, pressure, heaviness, he will find it easy to give the message. (3) The leader should be in victory himself, so that he is able to lift the meeting, and not be dependent upon the people for his own liberation. Sometimes the speaker himself goes to a meeting burdened, and trusting for inspiration to come to him from the meeting. But that is not God's way. The speaker should not be dependent upon the response of the people, but be able to change the atmosphere and bring the gathering into liberty, i.e., the meeting should not be used as a 'crutch' to make up for lack of prayer and preparation, or to liberate the speaker from his own burden. (4) The speaker should give his message even if he is conscious of opposition to the truth he is giving, either in the atmosphere from the powers of darkness, or by the people, and as he does so the Holy Spirit will work, and the meeting will be mastered by the truth, thus forestalling the devil, who will otherwise get a hold upon it. We have been talking about an enduement of power that is effective, and there is a degree of the power of God working through us which would conquer any meeting. The secret of it lies in the 'grain of wheat' life, for when the believer is deeply immersed in the death of Christ, there is an outflow of the Holy Spirit which, as it were, soaks the meeting, as if it were soaked in an overflow of the river of life flowing from the Throne of God. Something more than the individual getting of blessing. However much we may know of God's working through us already, there must be possible a stronger, purer force of the divine Spirit in our spirits, if we learn more deeply the conditions of the working of His power. In any case it would always be best for the speaker not to put down .'hard' meetings to the state of the people, but to look upon such 'hardness' as a deeper call to the Cross for himself, and to the 'grain of wheat' experience of fellowship with Christ. (5) All in the meeting should understand they are free to take part, and there should be no tie to time. The meeting should be free to go on until it is evident that the Spirit of God would have its conclusion. This is one of the greatest needs in 'Revival', but very difficult circumstantially to obtain. Yet so often when the Spirit of God has been at the highest point of working, it has been necessary to close the meeting. Only God can show His servants how this point can be met. May He teach us how to work with Him in Revival power. Note.-The question may be asked whether, in view of the Lord's Return, we are to pray for, or expect, Revival. There is, undoubtedly, at the present time an awakening of prayer for 'Revival', for the conviction is growing that the only alternative to 'Revolution' is 'Revival'or the Lord's Coming. The history of the French Revolution, and how England was saved from a similar upheaval by the Revival through Wesley, is referred to by many, and it is historically true that again and again when England seemed as much in the dark as Darkest Africa, God intervened in answer to the cry of His people. But "THE COMING OF THE LORD DRAWETH NIGH " Whether 'Revival' will precede that glorious event or follow it, we do not know. The Apostle Peter's word at Pentecost, that the outpouring then given was only an earnest of the fulfilment of Joel's prophecy for the latter days, is sufficient to show that 'Revival' is now due, whether it comes before, or as a result of the Lord's Coming. In either case we can pray for it, and prepare the way for it, whether we shall be in it, or out of it, by being "absent from the body, and present with the Lord".

Wake Up Sleepy Christian !!!!!

We are in Christ

Ephesians 5:15-17 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

We are in the world and yet not of it: Crucified with Christ and now alive in Christ Risen. We are citizens of Heaven—the Heavenly Zion is our home. Yet many times we, as Christians, become caught up in worldly things. Whether it’s fear of terrorism, sensationalism in the media, watching worldly TV shows, etc.; some Christians are addicted to worldly entertainment—such as sports, soap operas, reality TV shows, etc.

The Bible tells us that we keep ourselves “unspotted from the world.” How can we do this in a world that is so ungodly? The Bible tells us to “set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.” (Col. 3:2) We are to be “Looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our Faith.” (Heb 12:2) We are to have this mind: “if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.” (Psalm 62:10)

Eph 6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

If Christians were to read their bibles and care as much for prayer time

As they do for their favorite football team, think of what a different Church it would be. If Christians were to spend as much time in their prayer closet as they do surfing on the internet or blogging, which by the way is becoming an addiction for many, think of how on fire the Church would be and how much the Lord could do in and through His Saints. All things have their place but God must come first and our minds should be stayed upon Him...

Gal 5:25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

If Christians were to truly set their affections on the things above, the worldly things simply would not matter. Faith in God places everything we are and have into His hands. Having the mind of Christ means a mind that seeks to do the will of the Father in Heaven-- To walk in submission before God – Humbly before God and to be yielded to Him.

Romans 6:13 neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those

That is alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

Titus 2:11-14 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ; Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

If we truly believe the Lord could come at any moment, we should allow Him to live through us and guide us in our every day affairs. We should live according to His Word. We should be walking in the Spirit. We should be feeding upon His Word. Spiritual food is found only by reading His Word.

1John 5:14 and this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we

ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

1Thess 5:17 Pray without ceasing.

Prayer and supplication is how we communicate with God. Prayer is the breath of every Christian. There is a resting place in prayer. There is no rest in the world. Everyone is talking about whatever is on their minds, but the Bible tells us to keep our words few. In this modern society, we are bombarded with information—whether it is on the internet, TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, podcasts, etc. There is nothing wrong with the right kind of information but should it take precedence over Bible study? Should the information superhighway distract the Christian from prayer time; alone with God time? When is the last time you sat in silence and communed with the Lord? Ephesians 5:16 says, “Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”

Christians listen to music in their cars, at their workstations, in the office, on their lunch break. They come home to turn on the news and listen to the same news redundantly presented for the next two hours. They eat their dinner and blast the TV in the background or surf the internet, but where is prayer time? Where is devotional study of God’s Holy Word? Why so carnally minded? Why are their spiritual eyes slumbering? The bible opened every day will help to show you the Lord’s viewpoint on any given subject.

Psalm 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

Shall we live according to God's Word? Let the answer be "Yes!" May we yield to God's will in all areas of our life. May we know what His precious Word says and obey the Lord:

Prov 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

Prov 3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

2Tim 2:22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

1Thess 5:22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.

We cannot be friends with the world—for it is enmity against God.

James 4:4b says, "whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God."

In conclusion, we will give a few more verses:

Eph 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

1Peter 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.

Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Romans 12:9-21 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality. Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not over-come of evil, but overcome evil with good!!!! Stay on the narrow way that leads to perfection in Christ!!!

No Sin in Christ Jesus

No Sin in Christ Jesus

By Brother in Christ
Rom 6:1-2

What is Sin?

Sin is the breaking of the perfect law of God as it clearly states in 1 John 3:5 “Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.” Sin is whatsoever is not of faith from God’s word. (Rom 14:23 and 10:7) Sin is a choice; knowing that with is good and pleasing before the face of God, and doing the opposite: The evil. (James 4:17) Sin is when you know that which is right and choosing the evil and to constantly allow your self to be tempted in the same thing and not having victory and falling constantly.(James 1:12-16) Another thing that greatly grief’s God is Luke warmness so when a fire is started in us let us continue on the path without slowing down and drawing back , increasing in His holiness and being transformed into His likeness .The transformation begins when you have Him in you ,then you can’t help but change.(Rom 12:2) Was I or any other human being born with a sinful nature? The answer to that question is yes, but we are not meant to stay that way!!! God created human beings in His image (Gen 1:26-28) The characteristics of God are the following: - God is perfect(Psalm 18:30 ,2 Sam 22:3,Mat 5:48) - God is Holy ( Lev 11:44 ;19:2) - God is Righteous ( Psalms 11:7; Psalms 116:5) So if you are in God you shall be changed to His likeness ,which is the above mentioned.

No Sin in Christ Jesus

The Bible clearly says after you are forgiven for your past sins you should go and sin no more. (John 8:11, “She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.”; Rom3: 25, “whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,”) You must make the choice to follow Him and lay of you old sinful life and start anew in Christ ,make a pact with Him.(Ezekiel 11:9, “ I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh.” and verse 20 , “that they may walk in My statutes and keep My judgments and do them; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God.”). Christ doesn’t want you to do something that he knows is impossible for you to do. The Holy Scriptures (the bible) defines normal Christianity as sinless .After you have given your life to God and you have asked for forgiveness of all you old sins ,and you have asked Him for and received an new heart and his Holy spirit ,you in faith do what is written in Luke 14 :27 “ And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.” ,. So you enter into Christ death on the cross , and daily reckon yourselves dead to sin and alive to God , Rom 6:11 “ In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.” Now if you continue faithfully on this way you enter in to a new Birth ,Being a born again Christian . So therefore if you abide constantly in Christ it is more than possible for you to live without sin ,spotless and perfect ,perfect as He is perfect.(Rom6:1-7, Dead to Sin and alive to God “1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? 2 Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it? 3 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, 6 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. 7 For he who has died has been freed from sin .” ,and verse 11 , “Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” ;1 John 3:9 , “ 9 Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.” and 5:18, “8 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself,[a] and the wicked one does not touch him.” ) So we need to be born of God and that is to be a Born again Christian ; and if you are born again the power of Christ’s death and resurrection is on your side ,therefore there is No going back to Luke warmness and sin.

God commandments

-God commands all human beings to follow Him and live according to His Holy and Sinless nature. (Ephesians 5:1) -God commands humans to be perfect for He is perfect! (Mat 5:48) -God commands Humans to be Holy for He is Holy. (Lev 11:44-45) - God desires all humans to be righteous for He is righteous. (Ps 11:7, 116:5, 1 Pet 3:12)’ -God Commands humans to live with out sin. (John 8:11; Rom 6:1-2; 7; 11-15) -God commands humans to be like Him in every little detail and to have fellowship with Him, through fellowship have eternal live. (1 John 1:5-7, John 17:3) ,but with out a rebirth and the Holy Spirit it is impossible for you to keep these commandment . Therefore when you are in Christ and continue to abide in Him you can not sin!!(1 John 3:9) If you abide in Christ you abide in His death and resurrection. (Gal 2:20, Rom 6:4-8) That we may be Transformed to His glorious Will and image. ( Rom 12:2) The secret of Victory lies in death and resurrection. If we die to sin through Him we will also be raised with Him in His glory!!(Heb 12:11) So let us constantly abide in Christ through the Holy Spirit and His Holy Word, that He can do His Great work in and through us ,that we can in everything Glorify His Holy name. If you abide in Christ you attain the fullness of Christ . You have Him in you and you spend time with Him. There is a saying , the person who you are with and do everything with ,all the time ,you become like Him ,so if you are with and in Christ ,and diligently seek Him constantly ,and you have fellowship with him ,you will become like Him. Through Faith ,Love and the Holy Spirit all is Possible ,therefore continue in faith and love through the Holy Spirit for the Fullness of Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:14 For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died; 2 Corinthians 5:13-15 (in Context) 2 Corinthians 5 (Whole Chapter) Glory to God for his Great plan of salvation for us!! Tank you God for Revealing this to Me!!!!

The Lord Will become your fortress ,your strength and you shield!
