“… For it
is impossible to bring back to repentance
those who
were once enlightened—those
who have
experienced the good things of heaven and shared
in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the Word of God and the
power of the age to come— and who
then turn away from God. It is impossible to bring such people
back to repentance;
by rejecting the
Son of God, they themselves are nailing him to the cross
once again and holding him up to public shame. …”
(Hebrews 6:4-8 NLT).
*
“…GOD IS SPIRIT…”
(John 4:24 KJV). The fallen was actually united or JOINED in an ONE SPIRIT,
intimate, covenant relationship with the
Holy Spirit. “…He that is JOINED unto the Lord
(Jesus) is ONE
Spirit…” (1 Corinthians 6:17 KJV). “… [God’s] Love
[for you] … is the perfect BOND of unity...” (Colossians 3:14 NASB). “…He that is JOINED unto the Lord…” (1
Corinthians 6:17 KJV).
The FALLEN SHARED an MARRIED-LIKE, intimate,
covenant relationship with God, the Holy
Spirit. “…GOD IS SPIRIT…” (John 4:24 KJV).
When man’s or woman’s soul SHARES or PARTICIPATES in a UNION with God, the Holy Spirit, they“…[become]... a
living soul (again)…”
(GENESIS 2:7 KJV).
This
Holy “ONENESS” is the joining TOGETHER of man’s
soul and God’s Holy Spirit. GOD RESTORES MANKIND “BACK” TO ‘HIS’ ORIGINAL
CREATED “IMAGE” and “LIKENESS.” “….LET US MAKE man … after
our likeness…” (Genesis 1:26 KJV). “…in his OWN image…..male
and female created
he them…” (Genesis 1:27 KJV). “…And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground (body),
and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life (Holy Spirit); and man became a
living soul (soul)…”
(GENESIS 2:7 KJV).
“…God is Spirit …” (John
4:24 KJV). “…The Holy Spirit gives birth to SPIRITUAL
LIFE …” (John 3:6 NLT). “….Apart from [the HOLY SPIRIT], you can do nothing (you cannot
become a LIVING soul again)…” (John
15:5 NIV).
Only the “breath of life” or “the HOLY
SPIRIT” can return mankind BACK to God’s original, created “image” and “likeness.” “…Jesus Christ maketh
thee whole [again]…” (Acts 9:34 KJV).
“…If
any man be in Christ,
he (she) is a
NEW creature …” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “… [because] … all things are … [MADE] … NEW…”
(2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “…I will put a new
spirit in you. …”
(Ezekiel 36:26 NLT). “…God has given
[you] HIS [holy] Spirit as PROOF that
… he [dwells]…in
[you].” (1
John 4:13 NLT).
SHARING or PARTICIPATING with the Holy Spirit, in an intimate covenant
relationship, is CALLED mutuality.
In
mutuality, like marriage, YOU and God, the
Holy Spirit, PLAN to SHARE LOVE with one another.
God’s IMMUTABLE LOVE, however, is
prominent, continual, and long lasting (eternal). “... he first loved us” (1
John 4:19 KJV). He has “….loved
[you]...with an everlasting love….”
(Jeremiah 31:3 KJV).
Mutuality or SHARING is meant to be a
conglomeration of reciprocal
behaviors. Mutuality or SHARING involves reciprocal actions
also. God says, “…..I… [LOVE YOU]… with an everlasting love…” ….and [you say,]… [YOU LOVE GOD]… with all your heart… mind… soul… and understanding….” (Jeremiah 31:3; Romans 12:3 KJV).
In mutuality or SHARING there are reciprocal and relational benefits,
relational growth and development, relational gains, relational commonality,
and relational sacrifices. God, the Holy
Spirit SHARES “…the riches of his glory (presence of his goodness) in Christ Jesus….”
(Philippians 4:19 KJV). And you SHARE, “…your [body as] ... a living sacrifice…”
(Romans 12:1 KJV).
Letting God, the indwelling Holy Spirit, SHARE your life gives you the GIFT of purpose.
“And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ,
and hath given
to us the ministry of reconciliation...”
(2 Corinthians 5:18 KJV).
In this SHARING exchange with God, the indwelling Holy Spirit, he freely
and openly REVEALS himself through HIS WORD. “…God
is Spirit …” (John 4:24 KJV). “…THE
WORDS ... they ARE SPIRIT…” (John
6:63 KJV). “…the Word [is]...
God …
(John 1:1-4 NASB). “… [the word is]... the light of the
world..." (John 9:5, 8:12 KJV). “...
[the word] ... is a light to reveal God to the nations...” (Luke 2:32 NLT). “.. A Light of revelation...” (LUKE 2:32 NASB).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES the depth of
his love. “... perceive ... the love of God, because he laid down his life for us...”
(1 John 3:16 KJV). “... Christ died for our sins
according to the scriptures; And ...he was buried, and ...he rose again
the third day ...” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4 KJV). “..Christ also died for sins ONCE for all, the just
for the unjust, so that He might bring
us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive
in the spirit...” (1 Peter 3:18 NASB). “ ... Herein
is love,
not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation
(substitute, intervention) for our sins.” (1
John 4:10 KJV). “…There is
no greater love…” (John 15:13 NLT).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES the depth of
his care. “...he careth for you…” (1 Peter 5:7 KJV). “... The LORD “WILL” accomplish (take care of)…that which
concerns [you]…” (John 14:31 NASB). “...Casting all your care upon him...” (1 Peter 5:7 KJV). “...he
careth for you…” (1 Peter 5:7 KJV). “…The
name of the Lord is a strong tower (REFUGE); The righteous runs into it and is safe…” (Proverbs 18:10 NASB). “…God is our refuge and strength, A very present help
in trouble…” (Psalms 46:1 NASB). “…you will find rest for your
souls…” (Matthew 11:29 NASB).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES the depth of
his attention to your prayers and communication with him. “And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth
us...”
(1 John 5:14-15 KJV). “Behold,
the eye of the
LORD is upon them that fear him....”
(Psalm 33:18 KJV). “….call
upon me …and pray unto me and I will [LISTEN] unto you…”
(Jeremiah 29:12-13 KJV).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES gently, and
respectfully the depth of his generous grace, mercy, and understanding over
weaknesses and struggles to be holy like him. “… I AM HOLY…” (1 Peter 1:14-16 KJV). And, “…Be holy, because I am holy…”
(1 Peter 1:16 KJV). “[God
can]… be touched
with the feeling of our infirmities...” (Hebrews 4:15 KJV). “..Let us therefore
come boldly unto the throne of GRACE, that we may obtain mercy, and find GRACE to help in time of need…”
(Hebrews 4:16 KJV). “If
we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9 KJV). “…There is …no
condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1
NIV). “….mercy triumphs over
judgement…”
(James 2:13 NASB).
“…My GRACE is sufficient for thee: for my
strength is
made perfect in weakness...” (2 Corinthians 12:9 KJV). “...Grow in the GRACE and knowledge of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ… Amen”
(2 Timothy 3:18 NIV). “…my power is made perfect in weakness.”
(2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES the depth of
his faithfulness to you. “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship
of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:9 KJV). “...The faithful love of the Lord never ends!
His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his
mercies begin afresh each morning”
(Lamentations 3:22-23 NLT). “…
he remains faithful ,
for he cannot
deny who he is…” (2
Timothy 2:13 NLT). “God is faithful...” (1 Corinthians 1:9 KJV).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES the depth of
his protection over you. “...He
will cover you with his feathers. He
will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises
are your armor and protection...” (Psalm 91:4 NLT). “… I am the Lord your God…’”
(Exodus 16:12 NLT). “…Your rock and Your
fortress, your deliverer, Your GOD, Your rock, in
whom [you can] … take refuge; Your shield and
the horn of Your salvation, YOUR
stronghold.…" (Psalms 18:3 NASB).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES the depth of
his knowledge of you. “O Lord, you have examined my
heart and know everything about me. You know everything I do. You
know what I am going to say even before
I say it, Lord Such knowledge is
too wonderful for me, too
great for me to understand”
(Psalms 139:1-6 NLT). “…There
is no greater love…” (John 15:13 NLT).
Where does the mutual or SHARING
relationship begin with God, the Holy
Spirit? God, the Holy Spirit,
DRAWS you with LOVE. “... I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love...” (Hosea 11:4 KJV). “No one can come to me except the Father
which hath sent Me draw him;” (John 6:44 KJV). “…I … will draw …”
(John 12:32 KJV). “... I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee...” (Jeremiah 31:3 KJV).
God,
the Holy Spirit, DRAWS you with LOVE,
BONDS you with LOVE, and COMMITS himself to you, THROUGH LOVE, by becoming ONE
SPIRIT with you. “... [You]
...are JOINED unto the Lord [and become]
…one spirit [with him.]” (1 Corinthians 6:17 KJV). You are NOW “…one spirit [with him.]” (1
Corinthians 6:17 KJV). ). “…God is
love…” (1 John 4:8 KJV). “…love ….is the perfect
BOND of unity...” (Colossians 3:14 NASB). Jesus
said, "I and my Father are one." (John 10:30 KJV). “…that they
may all be
one (bonded by love); even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us…” (John 17:21-23 NASB). “….I have loved thee with an everlasting love…”
(Jeremiah 31:3 KJV).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES his love, all
the good things of heaven that comes with him, and beautifies you with his
holiness by making you into a new
creation. “…Do you have an arm like God, And can you … “Adorn yourself with eminence
and dignity
clothe yourself, And with honor
and majesty…”
(Job 40:9-10 NASB).You become “….a new creature; old things are
passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “…[You are]...alive together with [Christ]…” (Colossians 2:13 ASV). “…old things ….passed away…”
(2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV). “…The
Spirit of God dwell[s]… in you…” (Romans 8:9 KJV). “… God ... makes
everything [about you] ... holy and whole, [and he puts](or
JOINS) you together—[with his HOLY] ... spirit,
[and your] ...soul, and body …” (1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 MSG). “…Jesus
Christ is in you…” (2 Corinthians
13:5 KJV). “…Jesus Christ maketh thee whole (HOLY)…”
(Acts 9:34 KJV). You
ARE “….a new creature; ... all things are become new...”
(2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES all that he has
with you! “…The earth
is the Lord's, and
the fulness thereof; the
world, and they that dwell therein…”
(Psalm 24:1 KJV). “…for the world is mine,
and the fulness thereof…” (Psalm 50:12 KJV). “…For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills…” (Psalms 50:10 NLT). “…Thine, O Lord is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and
the majesty: for
all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine…” (1
Chronicles 29:11 KJV).
“… [ALL] power belongs to God…”
(Psalms 62:11 NASB). And it belongs to Jesus too. “…All mine are thine, and THINE ARE MINE…”
(John 17:10 KJV). [God,
through Christ]… freely give us all things…”
(Romans 8:32 KJV). “… For
all things are your's [in Christ]…” (1
Corinthians 3 KJV). “… “…His divine power hath
GIVEN unto US “ALL” THINGS that pertain unto life and godliness…” (2
Peter 1:3 KJV).
God, the holy spirit, SHARES all that he
has with you and empowers you to
participant in his spiritual blessings! “…God [the Holy Spirit] … DOES the
work IN and THROUGH all of us who are his …[God, the] HOLY SPIRIT DISPLAYS
God’s power THROUGH each of us …” (1 Corinthians 12:4-11 NLT). “… [YOU]… can [NOW] do all things through Christ which strengtheneth [you]…” (Philippians 4:13
KJV). “…It is
God who works in [you]… to will and
to act in order to fulfill his good purpose” (Philippians 2:13
NIV). “… the God of peace, … that
great Shepherd of the sheep, equip[s] you with
everything good for doing his will, and …work[s] in
[you]… what is pleasing to him, through
Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen…”
(Hebrews 13:20-21 NIV). “…NOW UNTO HIM THAT IS
“ABLE” TO DO… according
to the power that worketh in us…”
(Ephesians 3:20 KJV).
“…Thanks
be unto God for his unspeakable GIFT(S)…” (2
Corinthians 9:16 KJV). “…A man can receive nothing, except it BE GIVEN him from heaven…”
(John 3:27 KJV). “…The LORD SHALL GIVE that which is good…”
(Psalms 85:12 KJV). “…Every good GIFT and every
perfect GIFT is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights…”
(James 1:17 KJV). “…What do you have that God hasn’t given you?...”
(1 Corinthians 4:7 NLT).
“…[People will]… know
(witness) that everything [you]… have IS A GIFT “FROM” [God]…”
(John 17:6-9 NLT). “…by the GRACE of
God I am what I am…” (1 Corinthians 15:10 NIV).
When God, the Holy Spirit SHARES his spiritual life with you: he REVEALS
himself, he CONFIRMS his Word to you, and he ESTABLISHES himself as the Lord,
YOUR GOD! “…so you will know that [HE “IS”] the Lord…” (Exodus
10:1-2 NLT). “…Then you will
know that [he is] the Lord your God…’”
(Exodus 16:12 NLT). “…Your rock and Your
fortress, your deliverer, Your GOD, Your rock, in whom [you can] … take refuge; Your
shield and
the horn of Your salvation, YOUR
stronghold…[YOUR SAVIOR]…"
(Psalms 18:3 NASB). “…Thou
shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour …” (Isaiah 60:16 KJV). Therefore,
“... [to] ... those who
have ... shared in the Holy Spirit … and ... then
turn away from God...”
(Hebrews 6:4-8 NLT).
“… repent and DO the first works…”
(Revelation 2:5 KJV).
“…EXCEPT YE REPENT, ye shall all likewise PERISH…”
(Luke 13:3 KJV).
