That New Creature

Dale

You know, it's one thing that we all must realize, and this relationship we have with the Yashua, Messiah, with the Father, and with the Holy Spirit is all coordinated for us to become what He wants in the earth. And I underline that word” become.” The older I get, the more I realized that God is working in my life for His good pleasure. That means that every day, I don't look in the mirror, at this white hair and, and say, I'm an old man. I'm not, because he creates me anew and afresh every day for His benefit. And that's why I'm here. I've arrived at the revelation that every day is a new day. And every day, we become more like Him; every day, he becomes more to us than ever before. Draw nigh on to the Lord, and the Lord will draw nigh on to you. And it's not the other way around, you know, the we think. Well, why isn't God helping me? Why and why have these problems? Maybe you got reversed.

Ron

Right. If you get the revelation that we are not on this earth, for us. That's right. We're on this earth, to please the Father. And where His if you're open to Him, He'll lead you to lose your life because He's creating you for His will, for His desire. On a human level may sound Oh God, you know, you know, why do I want to give up all these things and all these pursuits. And, yeah, on a human level, you probably wouldn't. If the Lord comes in your life, and begins to give you revelation and begins to meet you. What he has for you is far beyond anything that you could ever accomplish, or even any joy, any fulfillment, anything that you could possibly imagine on human level, it pails, it doesn't even pail all it's not even the same universe. We had a mentor, that always would speak about losing your life for Christ is very difficult, on a human level to understand. God has to lead you into it by revelation. When you begin to see I,. it's fabulous.

Deborah

You have to become as a little child, there you go. You have to become simple. In your understanding, you have to humble yourself under the mighty hand of God, and then He'll lift you up, He'll show you clearly. I think that the Lord just wants that simplicity. That's why He said, Be as a little child, for such as kingdom of God. He just wants my heart and to express that heart that he's put in within me, to others.

Dale

I like what you're saying, Deb and I have a question. Do you think that as we mature, all the things that you just talked about the attributes of a child? Do you think that what you just talked about is one of the things that God creates in that new creature?

Deborah

I'm sure it is. In fact, how do you start to become a new creature started off as babes. And now we've become his children. And we're becoming his sons.

Dale

I guess there's a little clarification, the new creature is neither male nor female, right, Jew, nor Greek. Bond or free. I think you're right, this new creature comes as a child. He's created, that creation of that new creature has a child like impartation of the heart of God, that is a part of that new creature. We are that new creature.

Ron

What we're talking about, is being a new creature. And I don't think that's talked about out there much at all. I think that's God's goal. One of God's goals is to create this new creature in the earth. If you think about it, it's a new creature, which means it's never been here before. Talk about dislodging your brain. You can't go back to the past and go: oh, this is right, this is wrong, this is you can't go back to some experience that you've had, you can't go, you've got nothing to go back to. You have to live with Him by faith and trust every day, because He's doing this. You're not going to figure it out because it's never been on the earth before. Eye has not seen ear has not heard. We know the Scripture. This is something. It's uncharted territory.

Deborah

I think it's like, God created man. It was his heart. He created him in his own image. He created him to be Him in the earth. He is bringing us back to that point. Because Adam and Eve, they were children. And He would talk with them, and He would walk with them, and He would teach me how to work with them. Then their unbelief took over, and they questioned, and that's when they grew up.

Ron

I don't know if we've talked about this before. But what was the thing that they did? That they weren't supposed to do? Well, they were disobedient. But what happened? They ate a tree of what? Knowledge of Good and Evil. Exactly. And that's what we're talking about tonight is.

Deborah

They weren't ready to handle it. God would have showed it to them in the right time.

Ron

Now my question is, Are we ready to handle it?

Deborah

Yeah, yeah.

Ron

Are we ready to handle the knowledge of good and evil?

Dale

What did Adam and Eve do when God came into the garden afterwards? They hid. That's the key right there. Are we going to hide from God - Like Adam and Eve did? Or are we gonna step out from the bushes and say, Here I am, Lord, create me into what you want. And I think one of the things we're driving at tonight is, when are we going to do that? When are we going to step out of the bushes and say, Lord, I'm yours. I love what it says in the Psalms: we are His workmanship. In this day, God's finishing his creation. Christ came, and He made a pathway, and we're to follow in His footsteps. The thing that happened was, it was the Father who sent His Son to make more sons. Right? The final steps of creation that God gets what he wanted, from the very beginning, are worshipers. And that's what He's creating now. And he's starting with those who are neither Jew nor Greek, male nor female bond or free, He's starting with a new creation that He's creating in His likeness.

Ron

He's bringing us back to the garden. He's bringing us back to where He left off with Adam and Eve before they went astray. That's the beginning point. Christ came to open a door of relationship back to the Father. Why? Because He wants to continue what He started from the beginning. He wants to mature children into sons, just like He did Adam and Eve. He wants to begin to teach you, grow you up, right? They're just children, being taught by their Father, being imparted to every day, what a wonderful atmosphere. I want to believe that we're there. That's His destination, to get us at that place of simplicity of child likeness, that He can just teach us anything.

Dale

You want to know what God is doing through Jesus Christ? He is leading you into resurrection. He showed us the way to the presence of the Lord in its fullness. I think we're getting close, because there's that Romans eight, the Spirit that raised Christ Jesus from the dead, will give life to your mortal bodies. It opens a whole new vista of what God's creation in what He's doing on the earth today.
