The Life of a Mature Christian(2 Corinthians 5:17)
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
Hymn #287 Tis for You and Me(Unified Hymn 205)
There's a point in which you must become mature. While the Jewish people were quarrelling over the Law, powerful nations took over the world. While the church was focusing on physical answers, the three organizations created spiritual masterpieces. As you finish giving a barely hour-long worship, these people are doing the Nephilim movement. While you're living a life of religious living and aren't enjoying the Gospel, those people have offered up poverty; simplicity; possessions; nirvana, trances, and another world. All religious groups have training courses, but you don't have a place to go where spiritual training is offered. “Spiritual maturity" must occur in you. In addition, while enjoying Christ, (Matthew 16:16) you must receive the blessing of “re-creation.”(2 Corinthians 5:17) Only when you understand Galatians 2:20 can works take place. When the standard of thanksgiving and judgment become God, true maturity will occur. (Coram Deo) Even if success and answers come, you need to give all glory to God.
1. Enjoy Everything through Salvation
From the moment you were saved, your spiritual DNA changed. Even though you were dead in your transgressions and sins(Ephesians 2:1), was a slave to the ruler of the kingdom of the air(Ephesians 2:2), and dead in wrath(Ephesians 2:3). He saved me. Through this salvation, you can enjoy everything.
2. Receive All Answers through Two Types of Grace
The two types of grace refer to relationships with both God and people. A mature Christian longs for the Word every day(1 Peter 2:2), enjoys the privileges of being a child of God, and participates in God's character and power(1 Peter 1:4). Knowing that the ministry of reconciliation has been given to you(2 Corinthians 5:18~21), you must love people and make those meetings worthwhile(1 John 1:3~4). This is the person who has completely established his or her nature.
3. The Direction of Life and Motives
Christ died because He loved you(2 Corinthians 5:14). That's why you can die for Him(2 Corinthians 5:14). Consequently, your motive is looking to the things above and giving your life to Christ(Colossians 3:1~3).
Within your lifelong prayers, three aspects must exist. First, it's the church. You must be in the place where the three courtyards(237·Healing·Summit) are established and leave your footprints behind. Second, by saying lifelong prayers for your occupation, the answer of OURS(Only-Uniqueness Re-Creation System) will inevitably come. Third, you must always pray for evangelism and missions(The Posterity of the 5,000 Tribes).
[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, help me become a mature Christian who enjoys everything through salvation. Every day, through the Gospel, may my relationships with You and people deepen even more. Help me look to the things above, and raise me as a Christian who gives my life to Christ. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
