“By this we come to know (perceive, recognize, and understand) that we abide (live and remain) in Him and He in us: because He has given (imparted) to us of His [Holy] Spirit.And [besides] we ourselves have seen (have deliberately and steadfastly contemplated) and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son [as the] Savior of the world.Anyone who confesses (acknowledges, owns) that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides (lives, makes His home) in him and he [abides, lives, makes his home] in God.And we know (understand, recognize, are conscious of, by observation and by experience) and believe (adhere to and put faith in and rely on) the love God cherishes for us. God is love, and he who dwells and continues in love dwells and continues in God, and God dwells and continues in him.In this [union and communion with Him] love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him], because as He is, so are we in this world” –1John 4:13-17(AMPC)
LIGHT FOR NOW: You are filled with the fullness of God.
In Colossians 1, Paul echoes this vital truth; “Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God; Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:25-27). The mystery is Christ in me. This was hidden from generation to generation but is revealed to us now.
Ephesians 3:2-5 “If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward. How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the spirit”. You won’t find this truth revealed until you read the epistles. You are complete in Christ. You are in Christ; and Christ is in you. So, you and Christ are in each other. The new birth is an amalgamation; an amalgamation of deity with humanity; an amalgamation of immortality with mortality. Glory!
INSTRUCTION:Be full of the word.
CONFESSION:I have the very life of God at work in me. I have the fullness of God on my inside, in Jesus name, Amen.
QUOTE: Born again is an amalgamation of deity with humanity.
