Since every position in Christ a believer attains demands a corresponding manner of life, it is to be expected that a rule of conduct as exalted as God, Himself, will be committed to that believer.
This is because God is the Father of that believer and His nature is in the believer, 2 Peter 1:4.
In time, God will expect the mind of that believer to connect that nature with God who has birthed it, Romans 12:2.
This is precisely what we find in the Scriptures, for Christ not only provides a perfect salvation for the one who believes on Christ, but Christ also provides the instruction for the daily life of the one who has believed as well.
This instruction not only comes outwardly from the Scriptures but comes from within to the mind, for Christ has been made unto us wisdom and knowledge, 1 Cor. 1:30.
This instruction for the daily life, it will be found, is a particular revelation from God to Christians only.
The new creation message is entirely separated from and independent of any other rule of life which is found in the Word of God. By that I mean that what God taught Abraham, Moses, the Children of Israel, David, Isaiah or even John the Baptist is entirely separated from the rule of life which the Scripture gives to the new-creation believer, 2 Cor. 5:17.
The Bible is the one book from God for all people for all ages. It contains the detailed expression of the will of God concerning the manner of life of various dispensational classes of people.
They are related to God in different periods of time and under different corresponding covenants, 2 Timothy 2:15. Among the revelations within these covenants is the rule of conduct regarding the daily life of those who are to please God. Certainly, those who are birthed by the Father are different from any other people, even in the Scriptures, and have been given special teaching truths which flow out of and from only the Dispensation of Grace.
This period of time includes everything happening from the Cross to the Rapture of the Church. The people who come to know God during this period of time have a very gracious and precious rule of life, complete in itself, which stands alone in the Scriptures and is dissociated from, and absolutely uncomplicated by any other portion of Scripture, 2 Timothy 3:15-17. It is the teaching of the Word made flesh. Obviously, it has to do with the teachings of the Apostle Paul, for he was raised up by God to be a messenger to the Church, which is the general term given to the corporation of believers who have been birthed by God the Father.
