The Life of Christ Part 1
Manage episode 492601023 series 1068510
True Christian transformation requires the Word to move beyond intellectual understanding, quickening our spirits and producing Christ's attributes in our daily lives. What we manifest outwardly through our choices and behaviors reveals the authentic condition of our hearts.
• God calls us to holiness - being set apart as He is set apart from the world
• Genuine holiness springs from God's transformative work, not our self-effort
• Living "in fear" means maintaining reverential awe toward God's majesty
• We cannot expect God's blessing while deliberately contradicting His Word
• Without developing holiness, we cannot truly recognize God when He manifests
• Harboring bitterness not only hinders our spiritual growth but defiles those around us
• The outward fruit in our lives reveals whether we've truly received God's grace
We must examine ourselves to ensure what's developing within will ultimately produce life-giving fruit that reflects Christ's nature.
