THE WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST;John- 14-12 Jesus said, IF YOU LOVE ME KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS; The works of Christ are what saved us, but our obedience has to do with our love of the Lord. Also Jesus said, Why called ye me Lord, Lord, and do not the things that l say. It is important that we are sealed into allowing his Lordship to cause us to do what the Lord Says. The Apostle James said, be ye not hearer of the word only, but be ye doers of the word. Acts-1-1 said, All of the things that Jesus did and taught, it is important to see that Jesus first did, and then he taught, far too many teach and never set the example of doing the things that you teach. It should always be in our thoughts that we do not do to be, but we are who we are by what Jesus did, so because we are who we are by what Christ did, now we live and move, and have our being in and out and through him . So instead of doing to be, we be to do, all of our doing come out of our being, OUT OF WHO WE ARE, OUT OF WHO CHRIST HAS MADE US TO BE. We are NEW CREATURES IN CHRIST. What that means, is we have put off all of the deeds of the old man we used to be, put off all the doings of the old man, and put on the New Man that we have become, and our doings come from our love of the Lord, and because we love the Lord. So all of our works, are in keeping the works of the Lord until the end. Revelation-2-26-29. Our works model the life of Christ, as we model the NEW MAN THAT WE ARE. WE LIVE, WE MOVE, AND WE HAVE OUR BEING FROM WHO CHRIST HAS MADE US TO BE. BONE OF HIS BONE, FLESH OF HIS FLESH, WE ARE OF HIS BODY.

There is a difference in those two phrases; because he was God, only he was born, The on going process of that is that God is still taking upon Himself flesh and bone, the book of Ephesians says that we are bone of his bone, and flesh of his flesh, we are of his body. Not that we are ever going to be God Most High, but we are becoming his bone, his flesh, even his body in the earth. CHRIST HEAD, AND CHRIST BODY, 1st John-2-8 says of the two, head and body, that what is true of the head is also true of the body. Jesus said, that he was the vine, and that we his disciples, are the branches, connected to the vine, everything that is in the vine, has to be in the branch, as long as the connections stay strong. The head and the body have the same life in them, there is not one thing that the head possesses that the body doesn...
