Peace in Christ.
Again, if we keep His daily sacrifice…..ALWAYS bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, then the life also of Jesus is to be made manifest (SHINE) in our body….in our mortal flesh. This is the manifestation of the Son of man towards the people of the outside world. The Son of man will then be revealed in this world.
This shining of His light is towards those people of the outside world who are sitting in deep darkness who will SEE it and believe.
Not all of them will…but a “great multitude” ….a “cloud”...of them will believe into Him when they will SEE His light shining through us. The Son of man comes upon a “cloud”…a cloud of eyewitnesses of His light....the LIGHT OF LIFE.
2Co 4:10-11
(10) Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest (SHINE) in our body.
(11) For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest (SHINE) in our mortal flesh.
He gives His flesh (as His life manifests in our mortal flesh) for the LIFE OF THE WORLD. We manifest His life in our mortal flesh (that is, His flesh) so that they may see the light of life (His light) through us and be saved.
Joh 6:51 KJV
(51) I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
We lift up the Son of man by the keeping of His daily sacrifice (dying to the sin) in our mortal bodies which will draw all unto Him.
They will come to Him through us as we will shine His light towards them IF we lift Him up from out of the earth.
Joh 12:32-33 KJV
(32) And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
(33) This he said, signifying what death he should die.
This keeping of the daily sacrifice of the Lamb in our mortal bodies is the lifting up of the Son of man so that all may see Him through us.
The Son of man must be lifted up so that they (the people of the outside world who are in darkness) shall SEE His light shining through us.
When He appears to them (through us), we appear with Him in glory towards the people of the outside world who will believe after seeing. They will then see and praise God.
John 3:14-21 KJV
(14) And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
(15) That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God so love the world (in this manner) that He gave (gives His presence to us) His only begotten Son so that whoever (in the outside world) believes into Him should not perish but have an age-lasting life.
By the keeping of His daily sacrifice, we receive/manifest His presence now in this world and are instrumental in the shining of His light to the people of the world who are in darkness.
(16) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
That through Him the world...the people of the outside world who are in deep darkness... might be saved.
(17) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
(18) He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
We are instrumental in shining His light into this world. As Jesus said, we are the light of the world (through Him.) We shine His light to this dark world. We become children of light.
Not all shall see it and believe. Some will hate the light. The Father will draw those among them to that light. One will be received yet another will be rejected.
(19) And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
(20) For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
(21) But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Yet, right now the world does not see His light shining as His people have no knowledge of the truth of the gospel. The earth became without form (without the form of Christ) and void (void of the knowledge of the glory of God.) We....His people...currently do not have His light shining towards them because of a lack of knowledge.
The “princes of this age”...our church rulers... are not preaching the truth of the gospel to us as they have no understanding of it. They only “serve” for their own belly (the "god of this age") and have no understanding of it as a result.
1Co 2:6-8 KJV
(6) Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:
(7) But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
NONE of the “princes of this age”….our church rulers…know it…for if they had known it they would not be CRUCIFYING (this is a NOW thing) the LORD OF GLORY. Our Lord had already risen to glory so that we might have His life and glory now in this mortal body.
His glory is not being revealed to the people of this world because of their ignorance of the truth of the gospel of which they are not preaching to their congregations and so are preventing His life from being made manifest to this world . The people of this world are not being saved now as a result.
(8) Which none of the princes of this world (AGE) knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified (CRUCIFYING) the Lord of glory.
We are to change our minds about this so that the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. We shall then receive the promise of His presence now in this mortal body so that the world might be saved. God shall then send His Son to us....sending Jesus Christ to us. When He shall appear, we shall appear with Him in glory.
The unbelievers in the man-based churches will scoff when they will hear this: "Where is the promise of His coming (PRESENCE)?" They do not know that they are currently under His wrath and are perishing away to the grave without understanding. They are currently not manifesting His presence to the world.
When we receive the promise of His presence we shall shine His light and then the believing (of the light) people of the world will produce good things towards us…. “refreshing” us ....instead of bring forth “thorns and thistles” towards us.
Act 3:19-20 KJV
(19) Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
(20) And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
But right now, the Holy One and the Just is being denied. His life is not being made manifest to this dark world. The Prince of life is being “killed” from this earth as His life is not being made manifest in the mortal flesh of anyone. The Son of man is being given up into the hands of sinners who are preventing His life from ever appearing in this earth so that the world may be saved (who will then SEE Him through us and will believe.)
Act 3:14-17 KJV
(14) But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
(15) And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
(16) And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
But we have done this in IGNORANCE…as do our church rulers…the “princes of this age” who extinguish His life from ever appearing in this world.
(17) And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
There is forgiveness for this because we are doing this in ignorance of the Word of Truth which has not been preached to us so that we may know.
