Which one is it ?

What is the purpose of God?
1) To just save you and get you to heaven.
2) To manifest Christ in you so you become a son of God. (not a child of God)

Cornelius,

God, the Father, has a green purpose. He works it out through a red process.

Rev 5:9-10

9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. KJV

Mark 10:44
44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. KJV

Hi Joe,
This scripture is mentioning this happening "on earth". How do you think that will happen ?

Emulation.[/quote:2htmcmjm]

How much of Christ can we manifest by emulation ? Is there a limit?

Cornelius,

Remember when Jesus told the woman at the well that the time is coming and even now is...

So it is with this prophecy and promise in Revelation 5:9,10. So it is with the coming of the kingdom as in the Mt. of transfiguration. First the kingdom of God is within our hearts and minds, beginning at the ancient men that are before the house and then to the entire body. Zechariah 12:10-13:2 will fulfilled by the spirit of grace.

We have a more sure Word of prophecy; than eye witness. 2 Peter 1:19.

Joe
