Foundational Teachings – Faith in God – Part 3
In today’s session, we continued on with the topic of Faith in God or Faith towards God.
If faith is a lifestyle and the practice of it is to live under the governance and guidance of the Holy Spirit or the Spirit of Sonship, then to live out our Life by the power of the Holy Spirit is then mainly to have fellowship with our Father in heaven thru the ministry of Jesus Christ. This life is the Truth, or the Word of God becomes flesh in us as we abide in Christ and through this faith gain access to grace or divine enabling granted by the Father from above. Then why and how this should work?
As a context, we offered a brief examination of three roles or capacities attributed to Jesus Christ in the book of Hebrews. He is our High Priest of the New Covenant, the Builder of the Spiritual House of God, and the Apostle or Messenger of this Good News of our salvation. It is under this governing order or divine plan of God that we are to be disciplined as a son of God into the Image and the Likeness of God that is revealed thru Christ Jesus. In sum, the ministry of Christ Jesus under the Order of Melchizedek is the source of the grace or the divine enabling that is carried out by the Holy Spirit for our spiritual education, discipline, growth, and even perfection.
To be a son as a part of this ministry, that is to be established as a member of this divine priesthood, as a fellow builder or co-worker with Jesus Christ, and as a disciple and eventually an able minister of His apostolic mission, is our hope of glory or honor and privilege in Christ Jesus. And the anointing from above or the spirit of Truth will teach us and transform us in the Likeness of Christ Jesus as we hold on to this faith and put our hope in the power and the sovereign plan of God.
This is a life of Faith, the Hope of our glory in God.
