How Do You Know Christ?.

Thu Sep 24, 2009, 7:22 PM
"Maturity doesn't mean knowing a lot of things. but to act for God's purpose and to work for His pleasure." -Toph

-Satan knows a lot of things.
-Adam and Eve fell into sin because of desiring to know a lot of things.

To act for God's purpose and to work for His pleasure simply means KNOWING CHRIST.

Jesus said, no one knows the Father except the Son.

The Son knows God's purpose.
The Son knows God's pleasure.
And all His life He live for it.
And Jesus is the complete revelation of the Father.

Knowing Christ Means...

1. To become like Him. (Beatitudes of Christ)
-Phil 2:1-11, Be like Christ
-Gal 5:22-23 To die on our own sinful nature, those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
-Phil 3:7 and to count it (Sinful Nature) as a loss for the sake of Christ.
-1 Cor 13:4:1-8. The Excellence of Love.

2. Knowing His Commandments and Doing it.
-1 John 3:7-10 To Practice Righteousness and to Destroy the works of the Devil.
-John 15:12 "This is My commandment, that you love one another just as I have loved you."

3. Being Partakers of His power and sufferings.
-Our suffering is very different in His suffering.
-Apostle Paul suffers with Christ by building up the Gospel.

Fire Burns

Don’t wanna go back LORD
To the way I used to live
The way I used to live
I won’t go back LORD
To the way I used to be
Before You rescue me

Verse:2
I will not stop
Till every tribe and nation
Bows before You
I will not stop
Till they all see Your Glory
See Your Glory

Chorus:

Your fire burns with in me
Burn with in me with Your fire
Your fire burns with in me
Burn with in me with Your fire 2x

Lift up your eyes to see
The Glory of the LORD
Is on the earth
Arise, arise, arise! 4x
