So true. We don`t fully understand the depths all those great truths however we do need to know them for that is what `grows` us.
`Speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head - Christ.` (Eph. 4: 15)
So what are some of the great truths that we believe of Christ and His purposes?
The most direct and heavy message is that one denies their self and picks up the cross and follows after Jesus in faith.
Allowing one self to grow and mature rooted in Christ, becoming conformed to his image because of the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit of Christ with-in the believer, who is also a part of the Kingdom of God, becoming a child or a son or daughter of God as they learn and grow in their faith in which comes by only hearing and reading of the word, in my best estimation, Marilyn.
The Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Christ is what brings forth new life, seeing that Jesus did not make his home here, though he had many people around him, he eventually died alone on the cross, and after three days of being buried in the tomb; Was rose again by God, which was by his Father. Jesus (being the very Word of God and the very be-gotten son of God), sets the example of what happens after we pass away here. We raise again but in the Heavenly realms.
