The only thing that will produce God likeness (behaving like God) is His love. His love will produce kindness in the heart. His love will enable the heart to function the way it was designed to function. His love will heal and enable the heart to be meek and lowly, which in turn will effect the soul, which will produce outward acts of kindness, patience, gentleness, and the ability to controll emotions and fleshly desires.

12-31-15
Jesus laided out the plan for living this life in the spirit in John 15. We are to abide in His love [agape] and He will take care of the rest. This is how Jesus will again take His place as Head of the Church, His rightful position.

Agape is to the heart and soul, as air, food, and water, are to the body. Agape will enable the soul to connect with the spirit realm and choose the spirit life over the natural life. Jesus is a living example of this process. He was made strong in the spirit through agape. His soul was influanced by His Father's love untill He became like His Father, Hebrews 1:3. God is agape, 1 John 4:8,16. We need agape to become like God.

1-2-16
Jesus said in Mark 7:21, "For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries,...." In verse 23 of this chapter He finishes with, "All these evil things come from within, and defile the man." Jesus is asked, "Which is the the first commandment of all?" Jesus answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment," Mark 12:30. The Greek word for love is "agape" God's love not man's love. The Greek word for with is "ek" which means out. It should read, out of all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. God wants to pour His love into your heart untill you become rooted and grounded in His love, Ephesians 3:17. This is the abundant life Jesus spoke of in John 10:10.

Gal 5:22

The fruit of the spirit is agape..., against such there is no law. Agape in the believers life will enable the beliver to live like God. Agape comes from God, 1 John 4:7, and will effect the soul untill the beliver becomes like God. We are admonished to be rooted and grounded in agape, Ephesians 3:17. Agape is to be our life sorce and we are to build our life in and on agape. When grounded in agape we will live a life that is irreproachable. Christ already proved what agape will do for the soul. The effect of God's love is all consuming and will enable the beliver to live a righteous life full of God and full of power.

John 3:27
John answered and said, "A man can receive nothing unless it has been given him from heaven.”
Everything we have, salvation, speaking in tongues, our life, agape, it is all from out of heaven,  Man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from God, Matthew 4:4. It is from out of heaven that life exists and without the spirit we are dead men walking. There is no glory in man.  Jesus’ life came from out of heaven, the glory, the agape, the power, and the authority given Him from the Father. Jesus is a living epistle of the plan of God for man. The life Jesus lived is the life God wanted for Adam and all those who followed. Psalms 18:32, “It is God that grids me with strength and makes my way perfect.” He gets all the glory for our lives. The blind man, Jesus healed said, “If this man were not of God He could do nothing,” John 9:33. Jesus said, “I am the vine…apart from me you can do nothing,” John 15:5. We think like Cain that our fruit is enough for God, when Abel’s sacrifice was accepted. Our own righteousness will never produce the fruit of the Spirit. Only through Jesus will we become prefect, John 15:9. Jesus has the agape and wants to love us until we become like Him who is like the Father, Hebrews 1:3.

6-2-20
Eph 3:17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love
The Greek word dwell means, making a fixed and durable dwelling, rather than dwell in a place temporarily. Christ said I will never leave you nor forsake you. The purpose for Christ dwelling in our hearts this way is so we can become rooted and grounded in agape. We were created to have a heart and life rooted and grounded in the Father's love. This will make us like Him. We are to take on agape until we become agape. This is what Christ did. He became the exact representation of God's very nature, Hebrews 1:3. It’s the work of the devil that we are living our lives totally oblivious to this reality. We have been anesthetized to our need for God’s love. We are unaware of our poor and naked state our own labors for God put us in. Jesus said apart from me you can do nothing, John 15:5. We are lacking the very ingredient that will enable us to live victorious over the enemy of our soul. We have no idea the inroads the enemy has made into our hearts. The fact that we accept this Christianity as normal and the fact that all of us are struggling to live for God and the fact that no one knows the real path to fulfillment shows the depth of the deception we live in.

Matt 5:8 "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
A pure heart no leven only light. Jesus came to restore a pure heart so we could have a relationship with the Father. This is the last major miracle to complete the work in the saints. This is full restoration, restoring man to the sane place the first Adam experienced before the fall.
A pure heart is the key to true worship. Sin attacked our hearts and made them dysfunctional. Sin has disengaged our heart from knowing God and living a life in the spirit realm. Jesus is anointed and sent to heal the broken hearted, Luke 4:18. Paul by revelation knew that there will be a people that are conformed to the image of Jesus. Jesus was the first man to never know sin and never lose the glory of God.

3-2-24
 A pure heart is a heart that knows no sin. We are forgiven and we are born from above and see God through a glass dimly. We have an earnest of the spirit, yet our knowledge of the spirit realm is only in part. When the prefect comes (that is when our hearts are restored to pre fall condition, all the leven is removed) then we shall see face to face and know as we are fully known, 1 Cor 13:12. The reason for this change will be because Jesus will have finished the work He is sent to do now in His glorified state. He will heal our broken hearts and restore us to the place He is in. We will be restored to the same place Adam was in before the fall, and the place Jesus experienced His entire life.

3-3-24
 A pure heart is the passport to the spirit realm and in the presence of God and His Son. A pure heart opens the realm of the spirit for seamless interface with God which I believe is the interpretation of they will see God. This is the final stage of the work Jesus was sent to do. A pure heart is total restoration from the fallen state Adam put humanity in, Rom 5:12.
 A pure heart will enable the soul to agape God in all the heart, soul, and mind. A pure heart will enable the soul to agape God and live Duet 30:6.

3-4-24
 A pure heart is the final stage of restoration. A pure heart will place us in an unfallen state thus blameless. A pure heart that is rooted and grounded in agape will enable us to seamlessly interface with the spirit realm, our true home. A pure heart will enable our soul and spirit to be whole and function the way we were created to function.
 A pure heart will enable us to live in the spirit and agape will enable us to walk in the spirit. We shall see God. The spirit realm will open to us, and we will interface with the Father the same way Jesus interfaced with the Father. Jesus prayed that we be one just as they are. This will be the result of having a pure heart. Jesus said in Matt 11:29 that His heart is meek and lowly, this is the result of being influenced by the agape of the Father. Agape is kind, and patience, and long suffering. Agape has no qualities of harshness, that is why agape works no ill to its neighbor and is the fulfillment of the law, Rom 13:10.

3-5-24
 The spiritual fulfillment of the feast of Tabernacles will bring about a pure heart. It was agape that was first to go and last to be restored. The first century church began to experience the fruit of the third feast and understood the result of the spiritual fulfillment would be a return to the garden of Eden position. This is why the first century church never reached perfection because each year the feast of Tabernacles came around there were no signs of spiritual fulfillment. For perfection, it was necessary for the third feast to be fulfilled. This is why the N.T. was filled with admonitions to keep the faith and not stop and promises of a glorious future on earth and if not the promise of eternal life and the glory restored to those who kept true. The promises of spiritual maturity are just as true today as they were to the first century church. We are the generation that will not pass away until all is fulfilled. There is going to be a people that will be conformed to the image of Christ and live a life of agape and have the glory and live demon free and be restored to pre fall days. Everything is in place for the greatest revival this world has ever seen.

3-6-24

 Without the heart being involved the two greatest commandments cannot be fulfilled. This is the life sin cost us. A pure heart is what Paul wrote about in Eph 5:27, A glorious church not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing holy and blameless, this is the church that is restored to pure heart status and is connected to the Father and His Son in the spirit and are living one with them as they are one and being agaped by the Father just as Jesus is agaped by the Father. Their hearts are now pure and that is why they are blameless.

3-7-24
“See” to look at, behold, to allow oneself to be seen, to appear. When our hearts are restored to pre-fall days, we will experience the Father in a face-to-face relationship. A pure heart is the key to experiencing the Father just like the first Adam before he fell. Jesus never sinned and has open access to the Father 24/7. A pure heart will reestablish fellowship with the Father and His Son. The Father can now reveal Himself to His people as He once did to Adam in the garden and to Jesus who always had a pure heart.

3-8-24
 This is why we shall see God because He is pure and with a pure heart, we will be one with Him. This is why Jesus could rebuke the wind and the waves because all the fullness dwelt in Christ and that means the power also. Jesus because of His pure heart knew the will of the Father and did not need tongues He had no weakness. God is pure and He created man pure so man could relate to Him. When Adam and Eve partook of the forbidden fruit their hearts were no longer pure and they were cut off from the only thing that is pure, God Himself. It will be a pure heart that connects us to the spirit realm. It will be a pure heart that enables us to become one as Jesus and the Father are one. It will be a pure heart that enables us to become perfect like our Father and Jesus are perfect. Jesus through a pure heart experienced the plan of God for man, and lived that life out on earth, just as we will live the same life on earth.


3-9-24
 Adam lost his pure heart and connection to the spirit realm. There was no way back to Adam's original position. Jesus's life opened the door to life with the Father. This is the will of God on earth as it is in heaven. This is why we as fallen man need to be born from above. Jesus was literally born of spirit and His Father being God placed Jesus outside the curse and all that men succumb to, living under the curse. Jesus had the one thing all the rest of the Adams lost, a pure heart. His heart remained pure, and His heart enabled Him to live life one with the Father. This is the reality we are going to experience in the third feast. Through a pure heart we will live one with the Father and Jesus. We will live a life face to face and fully know as we are fully known. The world is going to see the real reason for Jesus living and dying for us. The world is going to see the plan of God fulfilled in our lives.

3-10-24
 A pure heart no leven no demons no more deception, All doctrine of demons will be gone from the church Christ builds. Truth will prevail in the saints. We will fully know as we are fully known. We will worship in spirit and in truth. We will all have the same faith and be one with one another and agape one another and live fulfilling the law of God. There is no weakness because there are no demons. The heart is for the Father only and with Him dwelling there the soul will be one with the Father and one with His Son, John 14:23. A pure heart will be full of light. The veil will be gone that separates us from the heavenly realm and living in the light. All of this is our birth right there is nothing to earn. We have been robbed of life and just as our natural life is in the blood, so our spiritual life is in agape.

3-11-24
John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life and have it abundantly."

The enemy has stolen our life in the spirit. We see through a glass darkly, we only know in part, instead of having a pure heart and seeing God the way we were created to experience Him. Life in the spirit is a relationship in the Father's agape. Our hearts have been corrupted by sin and therefore we have died to life in the spirit realm. Our worth has been stolen from us in that we are not aware of our value. We do not know as we are known by God. Jesus lived the life all men were meant to live. Jesus has been set over the Father's business to bring many sons to glory. Jesus is our great high priest who entered the holy of holies made without hands, He is at the right hand of God soon to prefect us and bring us into superabundant life. "Abundance," Greek, may keep on having abundance. Through Jesus as the vine, we will have and continue to have life in abundance flowing into us and issuing out of us.

3-12-24
Jesus said, “I came that they might have life and have it more abundantly,” this is what the Greek is really saying.
“I came that they might have, keep, and constantly retain a vitality, a gusto, a vigor, and a zest for living, that springs up from deep inside. I came that they might embrace this unrivaled, unequaled, matchless, incomparable, richly loaded, and overflowing life, to the ultimate maximum.” *
 Because of Jesus we are going to experience experiential pureness. Our sins are legally forgiven but in the third feast we are going to be restored to our spiritual life with the Father and the Son. The prayers of Jesus in John 17 will be answered, and we will live one just as Jesus and the Father are one. We will no longer understand in part and only see the spiritual side of our life through a glass darkly. Because of Jesus we will experience a pure heart and live a life face to face, fully knowing as we are fully known. No longer will we experience the enemy of our soul exerting worldly pressures on our lives. We will live free from all their influences and weakness they created in our hearts.
*This is a quote from Sparking Gems by Rick Renner


3-13-24
 All men have experienced the thief coming into their lives and stealing life from them. The thief hardens the heart so spiritual life cannot enter and change them. This last day move will be different from all others because of the profound work of the spirit. Man will see the plan of God in His people and understand what the plan of God is for man.

3-14-24
1 John 4:9, "By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him."

This is the plan of God for man. God manifest His agape toward us in that He gave His only begotten Son so we might live through Him. Jesus is the true vine and apart from Him we cannot live. There is no life in the spirit outside the Son. This verse is speaking about a relationship with Jesus. This relationship is not our phileo to Jesus but Jesus agape to us then our agape to Him and to the Father. The only way this reality will happen is if we abide in Christ's agape, John 15:9. This reality makes Christ the way, the truth, and the life. Jesus said in John 6:57, "I live through the Father so shall you live through me." Our life in the spirit realm is to be lived through the Son who will provide the agape that will enable us to live overcoming the world. This is what is meant in 1 Tim 2:5, "There is one God and one mediator between God and man the man Christ Jesus." The Father has set His Son up as king and lord not only in this world but in the world to come.

3-15-24
 This is the abundant life Jesus came to give. Life through Him by abiding in the vine and remaining in agape. Jesus is the one who will reveal the Father, Matt 11:27. "reveal," means, to lift the veil and reveal what was previously hidden.
 This is why Jesus said in John 15:5, that apart from Me you can do nothing. This is where the church rooted in romanism is today. It has a form of godliness but no power. Jesus is not the head of this church.

3-16-24
1 John 4:16 We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

God is agape and His plan for man is rooted in His love. We are created in His image, our soul, (not the flesh for the flesh profits nothing,) is in the image of God. We cannot see the soul just like we cannot see God for we are invisible. When the body dies the soul leaves, and no one can see the soul leaving. Our soul is eternal, and our soul is able to experience agape and be changed into the likeness of God. This is the key to life. This is the reality of the spiritual fulfillment of the third feast. Jesus was able to maintain a living communion with the Father because of His heart. A pure heart rooted and grounded in Agape will enable us to fulfill the commandments which will enable us to continue to maintain a living communion with Jesus and the Father.  This is the reality of Jesus words in John 14:10 this is how Jesus is in the Father. He had all the agape on a continual basis. We on the other hand only know this reality in part. John 17:23 is phase three Christianity.

3-17-24
John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

Jn 3:34 Jesus was not given the spirit by measure as all the men of God that went on before Him. Jesus has all the fullness of the Father dwelling in Him. This is the logos of God that all the fullness of God dwell in man and the path to that reality is abiding in the vine and coming to know the agape of Christ that surpasses knowledge and be filled unto all the fullness of God, Eph 3:19. Only through agape will this reality happen. In the feast of Tabernacles our heart will be restored to pre-fall days. A pure heart is the passport to the heavenly realm.  Jesus said I am in the Father, flesh and blood have no part with this statement. It is Jesus himself His soul is in the Father. Because of our sin we cannot relate to this reality. There is coming a time when we will know experientially what it is like to be in the Father. This is how Jesus could say that He and the Father are one. Jesus prayed that we be one as they are, Jn 17:11.

3-18-24
John 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
Jesus lived the abundant life and because He lived the life we shall also. John 10:10 Jesus came to give life and give life abundantly. John 15:9, is how He is going to give abundant life. We are going to know the reality of this verse. Jesus said in John 5:26 that as the Father has life in himself so has, He given the Son to have life in Himself. This is the promise of the Holy Spirit given to Jesus by the Father in Acts 2:33.
 The life Jesus lived was unfallen and because He lived the life Adam gave up, we have opportunity to live the same life. This is the true reason the Father gave His only begotten Son. This life is the eternal life spoken of in John 17:3. Jesus knew the Father in a way fallen man can never come to know the Father. To know the Father, we need to be connected to the Father and in order to be connected to the Father we need our hearts restored to pre-fall days. Jesus heart never became corrupted, and He had a face-to-face relationship with the Father resulting in a heart rooted and grounded in agape and becoming one with the Father. This life is what Paul wrote about in 1 Cor 13:10, perfection, a face to face fully knowing as we are fully known. This life is a life with a pure heart rooted and grounded in agape.

3-19-24
 The life Jesus lived is now in us and when God opens the heavens the power of Christ life will live in us and we will live because Jesus is alive in us. Verse 20 of John chapter 14, is the reason we will live because Jesus lives. Jesus will reveal the Father to us as we abide in the vine and receive and give agape. God is agape and those who agape know God, ! John 4:16.
 The life Jesus is referring to is a life of knowing the Father and the Son. It is God's intent to have a personal relationship with us. The gospel is a personal relationship through agape. We shall live life demon free with a pure heart rooted and grounded in agape,

3-20-24
John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

 To be born of the spirit is spirit. Our second life is from above not from this earth. To grow in our second life, we need sustenance from above. Agape is the fruit of the spirit and agape will enable the soul to grow into the likeness of God and His Son. Jesus is the supplier of agape. Apart from Him we can do nothing, John 15:5. This is a revelation of what we lost and what we are to gain through the work of Calvary. Jesus paid the price so we could return to garden of Eden status. Jesus fulfilled and is living Gen 1:26. The whole purpose is for God to reconcile us unto Him through His Son, so we can live a life connected to the Father and the Son. That we be one as they are. This is what life in the spirit is.
 That which is born under the linage of Adam is flesh and that which is born of God is spirit. The spirit life is a process of abiding in the vine and receiving the fruit of the spirit agape, which will produce Godlikeness in the soul.

3-21-24
 Being born of the spirit removes the soul from living a life under the curse to living a life in the spirit, Col 1:13. To live a life in the spirit we need the fruit of the spirit, agape.
 The flesh can never live a life of spirit. Our new life needs to come from above. That is why we need to be connected to the vine, receiving agape so we can live a life in the spirit. There is nothing in the natural that will produce or lead the soul into a spirit life. Our soul needs to be connected to our spirit so we can live a life in the spirit. Adam lost this connection when he fell. He was no longer connected to his spirit for his spirit was disconnected from the spirit realm. There was no more life for his spirit to experience No longer was light separating him from darkness. God is light and a pure heart will always see that light. At the born from above experience Christ begins to give us light, Eph 5:14. Sin is no longer a factor blocking light from getting into our hearts. A pure heart will be full of light which is what we read about on the Mt of transfiguration. The disciples saw Christ heart full of light a light so bright that it changed His outward appearance.

3-22-24
 The church Jesus builds will be born of the spirit. The church will be a heavenly manifestation born from above filled with saints that have a pure heart rooted and grounded in agape and living a life fulfilling the laws of God. Life will come from above and sustain the saint who will be in the image of the heavenly. There will be no earthly ways in Christ church. Christ' church will be the will of God on earth as it is in heaven.

3-23-24
Heb 2:11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,

We are both from one Father. We, born of the spirit and Jesus literally born of the spirit. Both are born from above and both share the heavenly image. Jesus set the standard for the heavenly image. The heavenly image is the plan of God from the beginning, Gen 1:26. The likeness of God is the heavenly image. Jesus became the image of the invisible God, Col 1:15.

3-24-24
Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Jesus maintained a pure heart all His life and the result is oneness with the Father. Jesus experienced the life the Father created man to have. Jesus is the first man to become the image of God. Thus, fulfilling the eternal purpose of God, Eph 3:11. This is what sin cost us. Jesus who knew no sin became the image of the invisible God. In the Feast of Tabernacles we will experience this reality, we will become agape the image of the invisible God.

3-25-24
Jesus is the first man to achieve the purpose of God which makes Him the firstborn of all creation. We now can be redeemed to full Son status. This is the reality Adam lost in the garden and Jesus came to restore. The heart of the Father is to draw His creation into an eternal love relationship with Him.

3-26-24
The image of the Father is a pure heart. Jesus never sinned and never lost His pure heart. Jesus said blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God, Matt 5:8. This is the church of Eph 5:27, no spot no wrinkle or any such thing, nothing of the enemy is in the saints of this church. This is the church that is heavenly in nature. This church is a church that is prepared for God to dwell in. This church has taken on the likeness of the Father, agape.

3-27-24
Jesus is the first man to become the image of the invisible God. Jesus said, "I and My Father are one," John 10:30. He was born of a virgin making God His Father and having an unfallen Father placed Jesus outside the curse all other men are born into. With a pure heart and an unfallen Father Jesus had the same opportunity the first Adam had before the fall. What Jesus didn't do was partake of the forbidden fruit and thus maintained a pure heart rooted and grounded in agape and the result was God likeness. Because of Jesus we now have opportunity to live the same life He lived, Col 1:22.
