Jesus said the traditions of men make the Word of God of no effect. The problem is not God. It is not the devil. It is what men taught us to believe instead of what Jesus actually said. #Jesus#Bible#Truth#Discipleship
Jesus is called the Last Adam because He is the head of a new humanity. The first Adam brought sin and death, but Christ came from heaven to form sons conformed to His image. #Jesus#Bible#NewCreation#Kingdom
True humility is not religious talk or pretending to be worthless. Christ humbled Himself by becoming obedient, even unto death. The mind of Christ is obedience regardless of personal cost.

Freedom from sin is not independence. It is changing masters. Present your mind, soul, and body to righteousness, and walk in the obedient mind of Christ.

Jesus did not give His disciples vague religious advice. He commanded them to heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons, and execute His Lordship on the earth. If Jesus is Lord and King, then His commands are not suggestions. They are the assignment.

Most people separate belief from obedience, but Scripture does not. Real faith is being fully persuaded of who Jesus is, and that persuasion produces obedience to the King.

Romans 15:19 shows that Paulβs ministry of the gospel was not word only. It was fulfilled by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God. The modern church has to face the question: what did we remove?
#Romans1519#SignsAndWonders#PowerOfTheSpirit
Mind renewal is not just thinking better thoughts. It is presenting your body as a living sacrifice, leaving civilian thinking behind, and entering disciplined obedience to the commands of Jesus.
The kingdom trains sons to obey the King.

The gospel is not a weak religious invitation. It is the announcement that the prophesied King has taken His throne, has dominion in the earth, and His people are to exercise that dominion until the earth is liberated.

Jesus did not define obedience as waiting for a random voice, feeling, or prompting. He commanded His disciples to teach all nations to obey what He had already commanded them. It is obedience to the commands of Jesus given to the original disciples.
They preached repentance and baptism for a reason: to receive the Spirit of God and be conformed into the image of Christ. That is not a side issue. That is the gospel bringing sons into the nature and likeness of the Son.
