Ephesians 4:20-21,

20 But ye have not so learned Christ;

21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

What is happening with you when your circumstances and situations are overlapping as mentioned? How does a mature son now handle such storms if you will? by their knowledge. How does that work? One way is to look at all that you go through and say! My father must really be interested in me look at what is happening. As simple as that may seem you have come to understand why the C&S gang is in your life. You no longer have to try to pray to change everything, and chase all the meetings in town for the faith healers and delivers. You see through your circumstances and situations to him, Christ in you, and trust your father, that is how a child of God lives. That dear saint is living Christ, living by the faith of another as Galatians 2:20 and other places say the mature live by.

Everything everyone is looking for is found in the growth of Christianity. Notice becoming a Christian will change your situation in the world, but you must grow as a Christian. Our father gives us alot of time to do that, but when he is moving you into a knew understanding he uses circumstances and situations of the world. Sufferings will always bring growth, you for the most part do not grow when thing's are all hunkie dorie. Let life get tuff and we buckle down and see what is going on. Have you ever got to the place where you just had it, and asked your father "what do you want." You know there is something that he does want, he wants you, he wants your mind and understanding to be yielded to him. It is he that still molds and makes you look like the son you are.

How does he do that? by fixing up the old man? no way that man is dead. He does it by revealing Christ to you, the Christ in you, and teaching you him who is your life. How do we become mature birthed son's of God? By learning Christ, Paul told the the Ephesians that they "have not so learned Christ." All Christianity can be summed up in those simple words "learn Christ." How do you do anything in this life in this world "learn Christ," how do you go about living in this world and reacting to relationships and being the person you were created to be "learn Christ." We must learn the Christ in us, first we see him as our life then we learn him.

We do not know him if we have not learned him, you cannot try to learn something that happened to someone else, you must learn what has happened to you by your father placing another in you as your only life the moment you believed.
