Episode #37; The Day of Division/Walking as a New Creation
Manage episode 351282950 series 3284230
At the very beginning of the biblical record, within the first few verses, we see God making division between that which is light, and that which is dark—Scripture says that God is light, and in Him is no darkness.
It is God’s very nature to make a clear division between everything that is not of Him, and that which is.
So, as a New Creation in Christ Jesus, you need to understand This: True division is spiritual, when it is in the realm of space and time where fallen humanity and rebellious principalities exist.
For the righteous, division serves to purify us and refine us. Division clarifies our spiritual priorities, and brings them into sharper focus.
Therefore, division is not something for us to fear, or resent, or be apologetic for—it is for us to embrace, and allow it to do its work of refining, purifying, and clarifying.
Just as God divided the darkness from the light in the beginning, so even now the reality is that there is no gray area; everything truly is, in the spirit realm, black and white—there is no neutral ground.
The New Testament reality of living as a New Creation from our reborn spirit is the most vital subject any Christian believer will ever undertake to comprehend and walk out.
Absolutely Every single aspect of what we could call “the Christian life” stems from this one reality. There is nothing---absolutely Nothing!---that you could ascribe to the Christian life that does not Begin with understanding how to live from your reborn Spirit as a New Creation in Christ Jesus.
If you can continually keep that One thing in mind, you will progress more quickly and with greater enablement from the Spirit of God, than probably anybody around you who relies strictly on religious thinking and religious activities.
