Bro. John:<\/span><\/p>\n

I remember when I first started seeking the holy Ghost and reading my bible, a verse in Genesis 26 jumped out at me: “And God said, Let usmake man in our<\/strong> image, after our<\/strong> likeness: . . . .”<\/em> I gave you a call that night and asked you to help me understand who the “our” meant. I had always thought, as many still do today, that God alone was in heaven (except for the other heavenly creatures) and that Jesus did not come until his birth through Mary. It was that verse that caused my heart to realize that God was not there alone, but sharing His heart with someone very dear to him – His Son!<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 6, Section 1 is so full of sweet feelings, the knowledge and understanding of God that can only be revealed by Him to us. It is truly amazing to take into our hearts what He has shown us thus far.<\/span><\/p>\n

I love the explanation you wrote here.<\/span><\/p>\n

They did not understand that when Mary\u2019s son and God\u2019s Son became one, that one new man shared everything that made up the two, so that it can truthfully be said that the Son of God came from Nazareth and that Jesus came from heaven. Paul was not wrong to say that God\u2019s Son was \u201cborn of a woman, born under the law\u201d (Gal. 4:4), and the author of Hebrews was not wrong to say that when the Son came from heaven, a man\u2019s body was already prepared for him (Heb. 10:5, quoting Psalm 40)”<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I had to read it several times to grasp the fullness of it, but what a revelation. It is us! An old past and a new past in one. We live in these earthly temples created for us by God, but the new man is in the holy Ghost, and if we are led by His Spirit, we will dwell with the Father and the Son one day. What you wrote helps me to understand more fully what Jesus told me about my earthly parents: “You are not a product of that union anymore<\/em>.” I am the biological daughter of Fred and Marguerite from New Bern, NC, but oh, how sweet, that I am the daughter of my Father in heaven. His traits live in me now – a child of the King!<\/span><\/p>\n

We are truly blessed to be receiving such sweet manna from heaven. I want these holy thoughts to settle deep within my heart and soul so as Solomon said about the law:<\/span><\/p>\n

When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.”<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The love of the world pales to the love that is in the heart of God. Whew!<\/span><\/p>\n
