What is walking in the Spirit and is the revelation of Christ the same? Part 2

2017 September 24th Streaming

This week we will continue to discuss what is “walking in the Spirit”? And, is it the same as “the revelation of Christ”? The term “walking or walk in the Spirit” has become something very religiously subjective. In some circles it is someone who appears to be mature concerning to Bible. Or, someone who appears to be very good at praying. Or, maybe someone who’s a pastor or Sunday School teacher. Maybe a deacon or church elder, or overseer. Or, maybe someone who’s been at a specific church body or fellowship for an extended period of time. And, let’s not forget to include those who have been saved the longest on that list. Hey, maybe those who shout the loudest, fast the longest, quote the most verses from the Bible. Those who have served, volunteered, gave the most money or did hospital and nursing home visits. This list could go on and on but that’s enough. All of these things can be of great value and service to others, but none of them are a foundation for “walking in the Spirit”. Walking in the Spirit is not a “work” for God. It is a work of God in the fellowship of the mystery. So, what about the revelation of Christ? Does knowing Christ lives in me mean I am “walking in the Spirit”? What about knowing Christ as my life? Surely this mean I know what it means to walk in the Spirit. Doesn’t it? How much of that is just spiritual information revealed to us? And how much is meaningful revelation knowledge in us? Look at christian landscape around us today. Every belief, every profession, every declaration of faith produces what many call a christian. I’m not saying some are not truly birthed by God. Being birthed from above. The literal meaning of being born again. Sadly, no one knows the person of Christ. And few, very few knows anything about who they are as new creation sons of God. The power of becoming another person inside the “box” is not realized because of this ongoing “box-life” thinking. Living daily as the “box” carrying a suitcase full and over flowing with far too many of yesterday’s experiences and “box-life” identities. Can anyone “walk in the Spirit” and in the “box” at the same time? No!

Paul said,

“For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but [how] to perform that which is good I find not. … But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” Rom 7:18, 23-24

If many who profess Jesus Christ would learn what to means “walk in the Spirit” and come to the “revelation Christ” in sonship, the answer of why are we here would fade or fall away. Let’s talk about it….

 

 

 

What is walking in the Spirit and is the revelation of Christ the same?

2017 September 17th Streaming

This week we will discuss something that I’ve been talking to the Father about. The subject of what is “walking in the Spirit”? And, is it the same as “the revelation of Christ”? The term “walking or walk in the Spirit” has become something very religiously subjective. In some circles it is someone who appears to be mature concerning to Bible. Or, someone who appears to be very good at praying. Or, maybe someone who’s a pastor or Sunday School teacher. Maybe a deacon or church elder, or overseer. Or, maybe someone who’s been at a specific church body or fellowship for an extended period of time. And, less not forget to include those who have been saved the longest on that list. Hey, maybe those who shout the loudest, fast the longest, quote the most verses from the Bible. Those who have served, volunteered, gave the most money or did hospital and nursing home visits. This list could go on and on but that’s enough. All of these things can be of great value and service to others, but none of them are a foundation for “walking in the Spirit”. Walking in the Spirit is not a “work” for God. It is a work of God in the fellowship of the mystery. So, what about the revelation of Christ? Does knowing Christ lives me mean I am “walking in the Spirit”? What about knowing Christ as my life? Surly this mean I know what it means to walk in the Spirit. Doesn’t it? How much of that is just spiritual information revealed to us? And how much is meaningful revelation knowledge in us? Look at christian landscape around us today. Every belief, every profession, every declaration of faith produces what many call a christian. I’m not saying some are not truly birthed by God. Being birthed from above. The literal meaning of being born again. Sadly, no one knows the person of Christ. And few, very few knows anything about who they are as new creation sons of God. The power of becoming another person inside the “box” is not realized because of this ongoing “bow-life” thinking. Living daily as the “box” carrying a suitcase full and over flowing with far too many of yesterday’s experiences and “box-life” identities. Can anyone “walk in the Spirit” and in the “box” at the same time? No!
Paul said,”For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but [how] to perform that which is good I find not. … But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?” Rom 7:18, 23-24

The Transitive Property of Identity with Kurtis Luckinbill

2017 September 10th Streaming

 

This week I want to wrap up my three week teaching on Union, Oneness and Identity with the teaching titled The Transitive Property of Identity. The most important statement said in the Bible is found in John 3:1-8 “Truly, truly, I say to you, except anyone be born from above, he is not able to see the kingdom of God.” Jesus uses the analogy of child birth when making this statement. It identifies the plan and intent of God and is the most descriptive analogy of Oneness and Identity known. It is time to take a stand and proclaim the greatest revelation in the ‘Mystery of God’ You will never know your Identity until you understand Oneness and you will never understand Oneness until you have Union with Christ. Once you have seen this revelation, you will never be the same. Please let me open my heart and share what the Father has shown me.

 

 

What is the Body & Bride of Christ? Ephesians 5 with David Kennebrew & Kurtis Luckinbill

2017 Aug 20th Streaming

 

This week in Sunday Fellowship we will take a look at Ephesians chapter 5 where many perceive the church as the bride or wife of Christ. The most prolific place in the New Testament to find out about the church and the body of Christ is in Ephesians chapter 5 verses 22-33. Here Paul tells us something that is missed and misunderstood until this very day! Even when reading these verses, many still can’t understand what Paul is saying concerning Christ and the Church. It is a mystery and must be revealed. Maybe if he started with verses 32 and 33, then added the other verses, we could better grasp this mystery. Although “mystery” means outside of human sense. So, let’s try to read these verses, putting the last first and the first last. Wow! That’s interesting. Those verses would start by saying “this is a great mystery”. What is this great mystery concerning Christ and the Church? He’s about to explain something spiritual with something physical which they can understand. And he’s about to do it without the use of blood relationships. Imagine that. To be related and have a unique relationship without blood being the source. That’s why Paul calls it a mystery!

 

 

Desensitization to the Blood of Jesus and New Covenant Part 2

2017 Aug 20th Streaming

 

We are going to continue discussing “Desensitization to the Blood of Jesus and New Covenant.” As I stated last week, I received a text message last week from my good brother in Christ Co-Pastor David Griffin which read:

“Those who claim that we are free from the ceremonial law but are still guided by the moral law want Jesus for his blood but not for his life”

Although David said those words were not originally from him, they ring very true. Sadly millions upon millions of people have received and bought into the lie and illusion that God salvaged a part of the law from Christ’s death on the cross. So much has been written about the blood of Jesus and the new covenant, it is really unbelievable. One area of the law that wasn’t covered in the statement above was the judicial law. This too was done away in the death of Christ. Of course no part of the law survived His death and none of it was raised in His life. I know that may shock and surprise and maybe upset some. Far too many of born again believers have never heard about the gospel being a mystery. Many have never been taught that every believer is a minister of the gospel. Not the Baptist gospel, the Methodist gospel, Pentecostal gospel, nondenominational gospel but the gospel of the mystery of Christ in you as your only life! Your gospel of becoming a new creation or another person. There is a new knowledge and understanding of the blood of Christ and the new covenant. Unfortunately many believers are desensitized to the person of Christ and lack the revelation of the mystery which is in Christ.This has made the blood of Jesus and the New Covenant misunderstood through box-life thinking and box-life living. The new creation race Sons of God are trapped in something which is not theirs! So, let’s continue to examine what this means.

 

Desensitization to the Blood of Jesus and New Covenant

We are going to look at and talk about this week in fellowship “Desensitization to the Blood and Covenant ” I received a text message last week from my good brother in Christ Co-Pastor David Griffin. The text read

Salvation: What is it?

2017 Aug 6th Streaming

 

Greetings Everyone,

Our message this in fellowship is “salvation:what is it?” That word is used by both believers and non-believers alike. Can it mean the same thing to both? How about this. Does it mean the same thing to the Baptist and the Catholic? The Mormon and the Jehovah Witness? The Buddhist and the Atheist? Is there such a thing as Biblical salvation or religious salvation? And let’s not forget salvation by grace and salvation by works. The world uses a word that seems to mean different things to different people. It sounds like salvation is pretty subjective! Oh, and everyone’s definition of salvation seems to right in his own eyes!

Pro 21:2 “Every way of a man [is] right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts.”

Exactly what I was thinking too! Is there a salvation that is objective and not subjective? Is there a salvation or salvation which provides a meaning and definition which fits humanity? A meaning which does not fit angles or dogs or cats or birds or our favorite pets. Most human ideas and definitions of salvation include anything and everything we hold dear and precious to us. So, let’s talk about it!

 

The Butterfly revelation and the external appearance

2017 July 30th Streaming

We will conclude our message from last week on the Butterfly revelation and the external appearance. Can we really understand what Rom 12:2 is saying to us if we don’t receive a renewed mind? There’s a lot of preaching and teaching on this verse with many more explanations to what this means. Remember almost everything Paul said came to by the revelation of Jesus Christ! Should we treat this verse any different because we know this about Paul’s writings? Yes we should. So, let’s talk about it!

 

The truth of the gospel, the person of Christ, and the butterfly revelation

2017 July 23th Streaming

This week in fellowship we’ll look at the truth of the gospel, which is Christ must be in the believing sinner to become a new creation. Next, it is only in the Spirit of Christ or the person of Christ that we learn who are are as Sons of God, our new Father. And lastly, it is by the butterfly revelation we come to see and understand why old things pass away, and why we are another person!  The power of this message is: you must lay aside everything you think, feel and believe which produces “security.” You know, your comfort zone.  These are the things that make box-life thinking and ultimately box-life living.  What does our title have to do with this?   Simple, conform-ability!  Let’s talk about it….
