Gospel of John Lsn # 125, “A Man Of Truth”
In the Church Age, we have spiritual mechanics graciously provided by God which offer the potential for us to develop spiritual skills to run our spiritual life on all cylinders. Mechanics is a science that deals with the action of forces in motion; it’s the science of how moving parts of a system perform a complete function of motion to fulfill an intended objective and a skill is the ability to do something well as a result of learning, applying and accurate repeated practicing of such mechanics.
In the Christian life, spiritual mechanics is a divinely inspired grace system provided to all believers without prejudice, designed to accomplish the purpose of God for the Church Age.
1st Cor. 2:16 “Who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct Him? But we have the mind
of Christ.”
Hebrews 3:7 “So, as the Holy Spirit says:“Today, if you hear His voice,”
Under grace, there is no place for man’s human good works, man’s talent, man’s abilities or his personality.
Human knowledge must be understood and then known to be loved but divine knowledge must first be loved to be understood and then known.
If God has a perfect plan and it is, it must be for everyone who has ever lived.
And if God’s plan is perfect, that means EVERYONE gets a fair chance.
I would much rather be of average intelligence and saved than be the smartest person in Hell.
Isaiah 53:9 “He was assigned a grave with the wicked and with the rich in His death(s), though He had done no violence, nor was any deceit in His mouth.”
Titus 3:5 “He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,”
2nd Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”
If anyone is positive at God-consciousness, God will provide Gospel information regardless of geographical location or language barrier.
Unbelieving heathen remain in that condition, not because they’ve never heard of God and
His grace offer but because they’ve chosen to reject it either before or when it’s clearly presented to them.
Biblical truth must be taught from a relaxed mental attitude which comes from an extensive knowledge of
the Word of God along with the filling of the Holy Spirit.
One of the greatest weaknesses of mankind is the lust for power that brings only self- glorification.
