The Mutual FaithThe righteousness of God is revealed through (the process of our) faith to (the) faith (of Christ), so that we can live just by His faith (Rom 1:17). This revealing process is sent unto us through the spiritual gifting of (grace in all of its teaching) from a minister, by the will of God, so that we can be established (Rom 1:11-10) in “the mutual faith” without being in ignorance to the fact that THIS (the mutual faith) (1:12-13) is the ONE faith that we are called to walk worthy of so that we may experience the unity of the Spirit, because we have bonded in peace within humility, and a forbearing attitude (Eph 4:4, 1,3, and 2).Those who have obtained THIS precious faith have the knowledge of God’s divine power that gives us all the things we need so that we might partake of the divine nature AFTER escaping the corruption that is in the world through lusts (2Pet 1:1, 3-4).AND BESIDES THIS, WE ARE TO BE DILIGENT IN ADDING TO “OUR” FAITH: a) The knowledge (of the grace of God that works) to show us how we can become
Temperate (to live a moderated lifestyle) and be given c) Patience (so that we could have) d) Godliness (which is the right attitude towards God) so that we can have e) Sincere love towards the brethren (that shows the actions of love within affection, and the truth) (2Pet 1:5-7) because we are called to love in the deeds (of showing sincere care) which is in the truth (1Jn 3:18). Therefore, (the adding of all these things, is so that we would have the mutual faith, herein called Christ’s faith (Rom 1:11, Gal 2:20). How do you KNOW if you have been called and elected by God?? Answer- You are DOING these things, and you shall NEVER fall (from grace) (2Pet 1:10). ALL who lack these things are blind, (unrepentant) and cannot see (to understand these things) because they have NOT been purged from their old sins (2Pet 1:9) (and crucified with Christ see Gal 2:20). Those who have had their hearts purified/purged/crucified through the Spirit, CAN sincerely love the brethren intensely, because they were obedient to this truth (1Pet 1:22, 2Pet 1:9, Gal 2:20).ARE YOU BEING HINDERED FROM OBEYING THIS TRUTH??(Gal 5:7) If so, then you are “self-justified” by the law (of men) and fallen from GRACE because you don’t have the effect of God (working these things into you) (5:4) AND therefore you don’t have the FAITH that is waiting through the Spirit for the righteousness by faith TO LOVE (Gal 5:5-6).ALL those who DON’T have the ability/liberty to serve in THIS LOVING CAPACITY, are only serving “their own” FLESH, and all of this is because “THEY WON’T CUT THEMSELVES OFF” from those who are not teaching/affirming these things (Gal 5:13-12).ARE YOU BEING COMFORTED IN THE “MUTUAL FAITH”? If so, then you are not ignorant of all these things. (Rom 1:12-13).
