Written by Ray Ogle part 1 Now that I have had my own per- sonal revelation that Christ is in me and Christ is my life, the Bible is now a whole new collection of scriptures just waiting to be revealed to my knowing the fullness that is in Christ. As I have been grow- ing in the...

By Cliff Gardner Unless the inhabitants of the world have been birthed by our heavenly Father, “born again,” they are limited to third-dimensional (terrestrial, earth-bound, materialistic) thinking and living. All human-originated knowledge has to do with life in the third dimension. Fourth...

Ephesians 4:13-15, 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine...

You know the offices and gifts are for the children and their growth. Why would any spiritual mature being bring themselves down to a lower level (when they are literal bithed sons of God, and know it). Worldly earth living is for the growing babes, the immature. The mind of the spiritual is...
