My Lord, My Lord, Why have you forsaken me. PART 2

John 1:12-13 “ But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God,  who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God”.

To all who believed in his name – he gave POWER to become children of God - Real flesh and blood children of the most High God! Becoming the son or daughter of the most High God is not an automatic or electronic process that occurs with Baptism or with professing faith in Jesus. It is an active voluntary process that needs to be initiated and executed by a well informed soul seeking said position with whole heart, mind and soul.

There is no denying that God is the father of all creation. But the simple fact that He remains Father does not mean that we automatically become children of His Divine personhood. Yes we were, once,  so very long ago in the garden of Eden. But there we wilfully stepped away from our Divine sonship into the realm of earthly sonship by separating, exercising and submitting our divinely gifted human will to the Satanly inspired earthly way.

The broken chords of love and paternity purchased by the blood of the Lamb, opened for us channels for re-establishing our Divine parentage. Just as it took wilful commission from man to disengage from the divine relationship, it takes wilful commission from man's part to avail of this power that has sprung forth from Christ.

Any Christian who has not actively and purposefully sought the divine parentage of God the Father, and endeavoured to love and know the heart of the Father, remains a child of the earth.

And the failure to teach this and to DO this is the greatest failure in the history Gospel proclamation. For this is the difficult part. It is easy to believe and receive Christ—for He has freely freed us from our sins. The only thing that stands between man and mans Divine personhood is ignorance and lack of humility.  

But it is difficult to see beyond the tips of our noses to seek the person of the Father because at any cost Satan does not want you to. Even if you have been washed by the Lamb, he has hope as long as you belong to the earth. He has hope that his spawn - your pride, will allow him to triumph! His battle is against my Father and yours. His battle is against my God and yours.

John 20:17 ‘Jesus said to her, “Do not hold on to me, because I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

The children of the earth do not comprehend the rich parentage into which Our Lord has invited us to. Our Fathers heart burns in pain. For he waits for us, patiently and lovingly. Hoping that one day we will decide to rise from our earthly wretchedness into the richness of His sonship. He waits for the day that we will love him and him alone with all our heart, all our mind, all our soul and all our strength. He waits for the day that our hearts begin to beat with His, in love and compassion. And for the day we join our will with His.
