Ruth: Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Thank you for your grace us testimony; But...
if still a "child", then not yet fully converted.
Biblical order is: Child-->Man-->God is not a man.
Fully converted is: Jesus-->Christ-->"God-ward". Peace with God is through Jesus-->Christ.
Jesus was made under the law. Christ is the end of the law.
Final conversion is through Christ-->God-ward.
So the journey is through Jesus-->Christ;
But the final destination is God, not J nor C, but reconciled by & unto that God in Christ. That God is light void of darkness,
is to say understanding void of confusion; So:
Be no more children = neither of two children;
neither children of the wicked nor children of God,
neither children of law nor children of grace.
The final objective: maturity, isn't child-ish.
Keep your focus up-on the final destination: God.
Be ye reconciled (thru Jesus-->Christ)-->to God.
So move on, from child of God to no more a child;
For a child can still be "more the child of hell";
But a man(adult) puts away childish things: laws.
So the end written has no mention of law at all; you all thereof begins with you,
and ends with all (the KofG within you):
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all.
Amen.
Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Let us compare your posts of 2008 and 2009:
Notice the change (for the "worse") in your posts:
My Testimony = grace, but still childish (2008)
My Testimony = law, emergency, blame game (2009)
I remind you of Matthew 12:43-45's "last state":
"When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth [it] empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last [state] of that man is WORSE than the first".
The miss-take you made was not knowing the difference between DRIVEN and LED. Ye are not under the law, but under grace, if LED of the Spirit.
I enCOURAGE you to put away the schoolmaster that fails every student: the law. It drives, not leads; and then it punishes you for being driven. Go figure.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.
