RECEIVING GOD’S PROMISES
Many people have the misconception that we must put our
lives in order before we can come to God to receive from Him.
However we know this is impossible, for we cannot deal with sin
ourselves.
We can only put our lives in order by coming to God in
repentance, believing in the Blood of Calvary, and receiving from
Him not only His forgiveness but the empowerment we need to gain
victory over sin.
In this way He can not only make us clean, but also
put us on the road to victory through the transforming power of His
glorious Gospel.
ROMANS 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of
Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation (of
spirit soul and body) to every one who believes . . . .
This teaching will bring you into the knowledge of how to
receive from God without having, as many think, to earn His
blessings.
Our Heavenly Father has provided for our every need in
the Covenant we have in Christ.
We need now only place ourselves
in a position to receive, by living according to God’s Word through
the power of the Divine Nature.
“. .
.We can only put our lives in order by
coming to God in repentance, believing
in the Blood of Calvary, and receiving
from Him. .

SALVATION IN CHRIST
The word “salvation” can be defined in terms of such words as
deliverance, freedom, completeness, liberty, soundness, preservation,
safety, health, victory, prosperity, restoration and wholeness.
And the
word can be applied to both spiritual and physical dimensions.
Spiritually speaking, it refers to soundness of the spirit and the mind
(soul).
Physically speaking, it refers to soundness of the body.
This
we know because we are three-part beings (1 Thessalonians 5:23).
1
Through regeneration we have been delivered from the wrath of
God which is destined to be executed upon the ungodly at the end of
this age.
And regeneration, as we know, refers to the salvation of the
spirit.
Legally speaking, however, we have also been delivered from
all bondage associated with sin in every other area of our lives.
This
also refers to the salvation of mind and body.
