2 Corinthians 5:16 (NASB20)
Therefore from now on we recognize no one by the flesh; even though we have known Christ by the flesh, yet now we know Him in this way no longer.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scripture puts forth there are two ways of knowing someone, by outward appearance and that which is not the outward…. It is this way that is not the outward that one is to know not only Christ, but all those that would choose to follow Him… This inward knowing of someone, as with the inward knowing of Christ, is Christ’s life bearing witness to itself in another…. For it is the inner witness that brings forth all the fruit of the Spirit, that being the very expression of the life of Christ… For it is faith that sees into the life of Christ for faith is that which sees….
Scripture says ‘the one that is spiritual judges all things’, it is this faith that sees into the life of Christ that is to do the judging… For to the degree one’s faith sees into the life of Christ, to that degree will one be able to judge righteously, for it is faith that bears witness, judges, knows, sees, and can understand, or, as scripture says ‘judges all things’….
For scripture says; ‘the just shall live by faith’, this faith is that which opens the door to one seeing into the life of Christ, for this faith one is to live by is actually the faith that sees into the life of Christ, that being, the faith that sees the life of Christ actually becoming one’s life in the here and now… Faith alone can do this, thereby is faith given for this task, for faith sees no longer after the flesh, for this second way of knowing is the way faith knows, for one is not alone in this life, so very blessed is the heart that sees with this truth…
For being joined by faith with Christ is how one is to know Christ and those in whom He has been birthed…. For it is faith that sees into Christ’s death and resurrection, and faith that sees into one’s death and resurrection, and faith that sees they are one and the same, for all things grow from faith seeing into Christ’s death….
Oh happy day, when the faith sees….
In the Beloved, Not me
