       *Let us Share the Grace in Unity*

This is the recitation we were brought up with in the church, but there are mysteries embedded in this bible verse unknown to many.

Should we talk about the mystery of the love of God that God revealed to us in this new testament? Because to the people of the old testament, this aspect of God was not fully known , even many church of the new testament still find it hard to accept some realities of the dimensions of God's love upon mankind.
They see it as a message that produces lawlessness in the church, they believe that the only way to promote holiness is to tell the church how God angry is at sin.
That God is angry with sin is a reality , but the good news that renders the devil powerless is that God is not angry with sinners.

Truly he frowns at sin, but kind to sinners. This makes the mission of the devil to be without profit. How? He will lure you into sin and go to the presence of God to report but instead of God to react with devil's expectations, He points devil to Jesus on the cross then the case becomes finished.

And I see devil saying who is man that you are mindful of?

All the people of the old testament only knows the negative side of God which produces fear in their mind. They know much about the anger and judgement of God.

The old prophets were seriously anointed to reveal to people the judgment of God upon their sins which is from generation to generation

The dimension of the nature of God that forgives sins, wipes away sins and remembers it no more was heretic to them.

Should we talk about the mystery of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ also,which changes the divine principles of receiving from God?

In the old testament, blessing was based on the level of obedience. The principle was if you diligently harken to my voice, I will raise you above all nations but since when 'the grace' appeared it makes the unqualified qualified, and gives gift to all men.

Those who did not deserve blessings at all became a blessing to others, a kingdom principle that is by works became by faith. The mountain of holiness, that was once by power, is now by spirit.

I can hear a voice in my spirit that says not by power nor by might but by the spirit.

Then, it was without holiness no man can please God, but now it is without faith it is impossible to please God. The kingdom of God that was suffering violence now came down to us and set his throne in the heart of man, now it is no longer taken by force again because the burden is light and His yoke is easy.

Looking at the mystery of fellowship of the Holy spirit also, it was another fearful thing to deal with in the old testament. Who dares to enter with sin into holies of holies where the presence of the Holy spirit dwells without falling dead.

When it became a burden to the psalmist, he shouted, who shall dwell in the mountain of the Lord, and who shall dwell in His place?

But glory be to God , the same Holy spirit that men could not behold His light in the old testament now choose my body as a dwelling place. What a good news. Not that he came to stay alone, but he came to stay permanently.

At times, I do laugh when some people say that when they commit sin, Holy spirit leaves them, but when they fast and pray for forgiveness he comes back again. Lol. This is a big lack of knowledge about the third person of the trinity.

The good news is that once you receive him, he has come to stay in you permanently, till death do you part. The relationship between man and Holy spirit is for better for worse. If I fall into sin, he is with me, if I stand in righteousness, he is in me.

The love of God is unconditional, the grace of the Lord Jesus is undeserved, and the fellowship of the Holy spirit is unseasonal

Sin has no capacity to send Holy spirit out of me, it is the Holy spirit in me that will send sin away

I can see him asking sin that sin where is your power? Because the mercy of God that comes through His love has rendered my accuser the devil speechless , the blood that comes through grace has rendered the judgement of sin powerless, the fire that comes through fellowship has rendered the power of demons powerless.This is the mystery that apostle Paul saw that made him to turn the word to his daily prayer, that the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ , the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy spirit be with us all and forever.

The highest dimension of the love of God that he release for man is the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ which gives us the hope of eternity while the highest dimension of the grace of Christ is the communion of the holy spirit.

Not money, not good heart, not children, all these are additional.

That you don't have them does not mean God hates you, and that you have all the earthly blessings is not a yastick that God loves you.

I am writing this to all those in one challenge or the other that no matter what, God loves you because for God so love you that he gave His only begotten son to you that once you believe him you will not perish in hell but have everlasting life.

Just know that if you can believe in him, you will end up in the bossom of Abraham

Love u all
