Transcript Summary
1. The essence of the program of salvation is so that we can see or understand God. Hitherto, no man has seen God (John 1:18); but if a man can live like Jesus lived and believe what He believed, in due time, he will see God.
2. A lot of times, the reason why we have issues with men is because we are not meek enough to relate with them, unlike Jesus who made Himself of no reputation (Philipp. 2:7). There is nobody you cannot save if you can come lower than they are. Therefore, we should learn to subdue any fear or thought which would not make us be all things to all men (1 Cor. 9:19-22).
3. There are two appearances needed to communicate what will make a soul house the actual dominion of God, express the eternal power of God, and come to God the Father. The product of the first appearance is the opening of a man’s eyes or understanding (Acts 26:18); it will take the second appearance to deal with wickedness in a man’s soul (Heb. 9:28).
4. The man who is raised in the process of being turned from darkness to light is Christ. Christ is an image that can wield a dominion. He is the image that can deal with and discern every activity of wisdom that is of this world or from the rulers of this world. He can do this because he is windy before them. A man who has attained Christ is one who has been born by the water and the spirit of faith.
5. When the sanctuary of a soul has been captured, it is able to please the Lord because it is wiser than a class of spirits and unreceptive to their thoughts. This is what it means to be made free from sin or for sin to no longer have dominion over a man. A soul can get to this state because it has obeyed a form of doctrine (Rom. 6:17).
6. It is not enough to just claim the promises in the Scriptures; we have to inherit them in our souls. This will happen as we keep the commandments that accompany the knowledge of that promise.
7. The training of this season is for us to lean on the staff of the judgements of everlasting righteousness. What makes us invincible to wicked spirits are the judgements of everlasting righteousness.
8. We receive the whole armour of God by knowledge and we become skillful in them as they dispossess us of another knowledge. There are things that we have not yet cast down because we still love them, and there are also things we judge unjustly because we judge by outward appearance. We can be susceptible to outward arrangements because we have not yet broken certain agreements. Until we break those agreements, our souls cannot be a temple for the living God.
9. When God stands in the congregation of the righteous and the godly, and judges amongst the gods, He discerns wickedness (Psa. 82:1). It is by that judgement that He brings His high thoughts to us and as we take them, we will be purified from all iniquity as a peculiar people who will now be zealous to do those works.
10. Those who in the days of their flesh inherited the image of God are the ones who have inherited the dominion of everlasting life. Without the image of God or the divine nature being formed in our souls, we cannot become Fathers that can relate with God. It will take a Father to relate with God.
11. What is limiting us from carrying the image of God is death — it is a nature that is angelic and can be traced to the doctrine of a fallen angel (Lucifer). But it passes away in the process of provoking our brethren with good works. We do this by using the light of the Father in our conversations.
12. The imperfections of our brethren, especially in the season of the Most Holy, are blessings in disguise. This is because in such situations, we have the opportunity to use a higher light than we previously used to dwell at peace again. This is how we count our losses in the flesh and do nothing except that which we see the Father do.
13. (Rom. 6:22). What pleases and glorifies the Father the most is that we bear fruits unto holiness. Those fruits are the conversations to those who are both within and outside the house (our brethren and non-brethren). One who can do this has a measure of stature or image.
14. It is a saviour that will become all things to all men in order to save them. Saviours are gods. Jesus was able to save men through Paul because He had been able to redeem him from iniquities. These conversations are known as peculiar works or good works in seasons where a peculiar people are being made a peculiar treasure. The end of this will make such a man a peculiar treasure – one with a soul that can fully interpret the image of God.
15. Jesus got to a state where He could naturally show the Father because He had become one with the Father (John 14:9). The conversations of Jesus in the synoptic gospels were conversations of an image. They are what we need to embody to provoke one another and to also handle some temptations as we relate with those who are without.
Blessings!
