Christformation in You is the Beauty from Inside
Christformation in you is the eternal beauty from inside. Do not waste your time and effort beautifying your outside, only for the appreciation of others around you.Spend your lifetime beautifying your inside.This whole lifetime wouldn't be enough for beautifying yourself inside with Christformation in you.It will require absolute obedience to the Holy Spirit who dwells inside of you.If you are the temple of the Holy Spirit,you will find the need for Christformation in you.
1 Peter 3:3-4 (New International Version, ©2010)
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.
Only those who do not have Christformation in them, make a lot of unnecessary noise seeking attention from the world.Their ugliness will show in the end.There is no ugliness of nature when there is Christformation.The divine nature of Christ is the unfading Beauty of the Lord in you.But, this Beauty of The Lord must be formed in you.You must seek daily to be filled with the divine natures of Christ.
Galatians 6:7-8 (New International Version, ©2010)
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
You will please the Holy Spirit who is in you when you seek Christformation in you.You cannot please Him, if you do not seek Christformation in you.The Lord Jesus Christ had very strong words for those who advocated and did not spend their time cleaning and beautifying the inside but instead, the outside only.
Matthew 23:25-26 (New International Version, ©2010)
“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be clean.
The Lord Jesus Christ was referring to Christformation in your born again spirit that will renew your mind and fill you with the mind of Christ as much as you're filled with Christ through your obedience to Him.This Christformation in your born again spirit and the soul(mind)which is now formed as the the mind of Christ in you will be clothed with the incorruptible and imperishable body which is being built at the right hand of God the Father, now. Remember,the Bride will be clothed from heaven.
We cannot fool God if we do not actively sow our lives for Christformation in us while on earth.If we had only spend our lives on the things of this world we will be answerable to Him on That Day.What we have sown with out time and effort will show in the end.We will reap accordingly.Warning: If we had sown greed and self-indulgence we will be reaping self-destruction.

I Am With You:This Promise is Fulfilled through Christformation in you Eternally
Matthew 28:18-20 (New International Version, ©2010)
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
"I am With You" is one of God's greatest promise to those who belong to Him through Christ His beloved Son.This promise is fulfilled through Christformation in you and me.But, if you were to look diligently into the preceding sentence, this does not happen until you have been taught or learnt total obedience to the Lord and all His commandments.Obedience to the commandments of the Lord would bring about Christformation in you. The degree you obey Him in your life will decide how much Christ will be formed in you.Therefore, we cannot fool God! We can fool man but we can never fool God,saying and claiming that we are saved.The fruit of our salvation will be a life of obedience to the Lord,just as He was to the Heavenly Father on earth, even death on the cross.

I Will Have Mercy on Whom I Have Mercy, says The Lord
Romans 9:15-16 (New International Version)
Christformation will only happen in all those who are predestined for Christformation in them by the Heavenly Father. You must be an object of his mercy to have Christformation in you.An object of His wrath will never have Christformation in himself.In the end, God the Heavenly Father decides who will be filled with His beloved Son.If you have a leading of the Holy Spirit for Christ to be formed in you fully, then that leading comes from the Heavenly Father.
For he says to Moses,
“I will have mercy on whom I have mercy,
and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”
It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.
Just exactly who are those who have God's mercy and have not was spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ in His parables.This parable has the message clearly spoken:
Matthew 25:31-46 (New International Version)
“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’
“They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’
“He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
“Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”
If you would realize why the sheep were chosen and not the goats,it was because of Christformation in them. It was their Christ-like nature in them that made the difference.
The parable was not just highlighting social service to mankind as many perceive, but,Christ-like nature formed in them.It takes Christ-like nature to respond to people like the above.Remember, They are the "least" in the eyes of the public.You may do social service to mankind but still God looks at your motives and intentions of the heart.It may look like you are doing humble service to mankind but He knows why it was done.Was it for pleasing the sinful nature to seek self glory with selfish ambition in your heart or greed for worldly things. He knows it!

Jesus Christ our Lord is The Law, The Word and The Promise of God..
Jesus Christ our Lord is the The Law, The Word and The Promise of God. All three has been fulfilled in Christ our Lord.
Colossians 1:19-20 (New International Version)
For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through His blood, shed on the cross.
The Lord Jesus Christ came to fulfill The Law,The Word and The Promise that God made from the beginning of the world.Christ Came to Fulfill the Law:
Matthew 5:17-18 (English Standard Version)
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished.
Galatians 4:4 (English Standard Version)
But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.
John 1:14 (English Standard Version)
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Isaiah 7:14 (New International Version)
Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call Him Immanuel.
The Lord Jesus Christ fulfilled all the promises of God,obeyed all of God's word and fulfilled each law found in it and He redeemed us for the same to be formed in us through Him by the power of the Holy Spirit in us.
With Christ fully formed in us, the Law, the Word and the Promise of God fills us because He is the Law of God, the Word of God and the Promise of God to us who believe in Him and love Him.

Defiled by the Sinful Nature of the Devil in you.
Luke 6:43-45 (New International Version)
"No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.
You will bear fruit from the sinful nature of the Devil in you or the Holy Spirit in you who helps you with Christformation in you.The Lord Jesus Christ warned us that we will be defiled by the sinful nature of the Devil in us if we live obeying it's cravings within us.
Mark 7:20-23 (New International Version)
He went on: "What comes out of a man is what makes him 'unclean.' For from within, out of men's hearts, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and make a man 'unclean.'
Apostle Paul warned us to put the misdeeds of the sinful nature to death, meaning 'no more alive' in us-death on the cross of Christ.
Romans 8:13 (New International Version)
For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live,
All the misdeeds of the body come out from the sinful nature of the Devil in you,The Bad Tree,that is, if you have succumbed to it's temptations..but if you overcome the cravings of the sinful nature by the power of the Holy Spirit in you, you will live because the Holy Spirit will help you with the next step that follows, that is,Christformation in you...therefore, listen to Him closely and obey Him and you will live a victorious life in Christ.
You will either be serving Christ or the Devil? You can claim anything, but the fruit that you produce will show... to whom do you actually belong to.If you do evil. there is no question or doubt, you are from the Devil but if you do good, you are from the Lord Jesus Christ... for only He is good. Remember that He and the Father are ONE.. thats why the Holy Spirit is there to help you with Christformation in you.

Christformation Message 2: Righteousness of Christ is Formed In You
Hebrews 5:12-14 (New International Version)
In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.
The righteousness of Christ is solid food, the immature in Christ will resent this solid food.They cannot 'swallow' anything beyond 'milk or fluids'.But in those where Christformation is already taking place, by constant use and exercising of obedience of God's word in their lives, they will now what is the righteousness of Christ and the active partaking of Christ's divine nature and what will be the outcome of total obedience to Christ.Choosing to put to death the misdeeds of the sinful nature of the Devil in us with the help of the Holy Spirit is the ability to distinguish good from evil.We will never cherish sins in our lives anymore.The temptations may be there but we can escape by our full dependence on the Holy Spirit, who is God's power in us.
Isaiah 35:8 (New International Version)
And a highway will be there;
it will be called the Way of Holiness.
The unclean will not journey on it;
it will be for those who walk in that Way;
wicked fools will not go about on it.
Christformation in you will be the Way of Holiness.The unclean sinful nature of the Devil will not find it's way there.'Wicked fools' meaning those who take delight in obeying the sinful nature of the Devil in themselves and are slaves to it.Infact, those walking on this highway of holiness know how to distinguish good from evil and the unclean will not journey on the path of Christformation.The wicked fool would feel more comfortable living in sins and continually obeying the sinful nature of the Devil in them.Infact, they will even boast about wallowing in their sinful nature instead.

Christformation Message:Restoration to an Everlasting Relationship by way of Reconciliation through Repentance
Christformation message is; restoration to an everlasting relationship by way of reconciliation through repentance.Repentance is turning away from sins and turning fully towards full Christformation in yourself,if you would allow it by being obedient to the Holy Spirit who is your eternal 'Helper' for a successful Christformation in you.He leads you to full Christformation.
The parable below has all these; reconciliation,repentance,restoration and a lasting relationship mentioned in it.This is Christformation in you message.
Luke 15:11-31 (New International Version)
Jesus continued: "There was a man who had two sons. The younger one said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of the estate.' So he divided his property between them.
"Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.
"When he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.' So he got up and went to his father.
"But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.
"The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.
"But the father said to his servants, 'Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' So they began to celebrate.
"Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 'Your brother has come,' he replied, 'and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.'
"The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. But he answered his father, 'Look! All these years I've been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!'
" 'My son,' the father said, 'you are always with me, and everything I have is yours.

God Makes Impossible Situations Possible through Christ His Only Begotten Son by the Power of the Holy Spirit on Earth
From Genesis to Revelation, God the Heavenly Father had been in the business of making all things impossible to man possible.It looked impossible to reconcile man back to Him but He did it through His only begotten Son by the power of the Holy Spirit,convicting mankind that they should return to Him and that there is no other way.The Holy spirit shows us that Christ our Lord is that Way ,the Truth and the Life and no man goes to the Father except by believing in Christ and His completed work on the cross through His resurrection.
Mark 10:27 (New International Version)
Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God."
Whereas,on the contrary, the Devil is in the business of making everything impossible for mankind and yet there are people blinded by and who persist in it.
The Devil makes things impossible for man but God makes it possible through His only begotten Son by the power of the Holy Spirit when we fully believe in His promises without a shadow of a doubt.God is more powerful than the fallen angels definitely!
God can do anything on earth.Things that we think that will never happen, happens!
Jeremiah 32:27 (New International Version)
"I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?

The Greatest Intercessor in the Order of Melchizedek
The greatest intercessor is the Lord Jesus Christ.There is no Intercessor greater than Him, on this earth, in heaven or even underneath the earth.No one can be compared to Him.He is not an intercessor in the order of Aaron but Melchizedek,who is also the King of righteousness and peace.He does not die like Aaron but lives forever like Melchizedek.God the Father has appointed Him to be the High Priest forever and ever.
Hebrews 5:4-6 (New International Version)
No one takes this honor upon himself; he must be called by God, just as Aaron was. So Christ also did not take upon himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him,
"You are my Son;
today I have become your Father."And he says in another place,
"You are a priest forever,
in the order of Melchizedek."
Why did the Heavenly Father do this? The answer is here in these verses below.
Hebrews 1:1-5 (New International Version)
In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
For to which of the angels did God ever say,
"You are my Son;
today I have become your Father"? Or again,
"I will be his Father,
and he will be my Son"?
What does He do as the greatest intercessor, being seated at God the Father's right hand?
Hebrews 2:14-18 (New International Version)
Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil—and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham's descendants. For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people. Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.
He intercedes for us who are called by his greatest name given to Him by the Heavenly Father, so that full Christformation takes place in us for the pleasure of the Father in Heaven.He is pleased with His only begotten Son and when we are filled with Christ in us,the Heavenly Father will be pleased with us.
John 17:1-10 (New International Version)
After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.
Jesus Prays for His Disciples
"I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them.
This is what Job said about the Lord Jesus Christ at the height of his sufferings.
Job 16:19-21 (New International Version)
Even now my witness is in heaven;
my advocate is on high.
My intercessor is my friend
as my eyes pour out tears to God;
on behalf of a man he pleads with God
as a man pleads for his friend.

The Abomination that Causes Desolation is Here
The days of shifting the focus to the 'abomination that causes desolation' are here as the prophet Daniel prophesied thousands of years ago."Money can buy anything.....without it you can do nothing....they say in unison.....in one same worded chorus they sing.......and remind everyone that the abomination is inevitable.
Daniel 12:9-13 (New International Version)
He replied, "Go your way, Daniel, because the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end. Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.
"From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.
"As for you, go your way till the end. You will rest, and then at the end of the days you will rise to receive your allotted inheritance."
"None of the wicked will understand....but the wise will.Does it ring a bell? The comparisan made between the foolish and the wise.The parables of building the house on the sand and the rock, the 'ten virgins'-five of them were wise and the others were foolish in their actions for not filling their own lamps with oil? They were not careful and diligent about Christformation in them.Everything starts with understanding this eternal truth-Christformation in you!The parable of the Sower is about those who understood and those who didn't.Three of them didn't but one did.The 'good soil' did understand this truth.Again, this begins with our faith in Christ.
Revelation 17:1-5 (New International Version)
One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits on many waters. With her the kings of the earth committed adultery and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries."
Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. This title was written on her forehead:
MYSTERY
BABYLON THE GREAT
THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Who is this woman dressed in purple and scarlet? Mystery? Its no more a mystery now!
The Lord Jesus warned about this abomination.Take heed, O ye who belong to Him.
This woman is none other than the earthly Jerusalem.We belong to the Heavenly Jerusalem.The earthly Jerusalem has a lot to offer but must we accept it's offer?
No,we should not!Read the entire chapter of Revelation 17, you would be able to see what it offers.What it offers does not remain.It's all for temporal satisfaction only.Take heed! Seek first for King Jesus to be formed in you, His Kingdom to be formed in you and His righteousness to be formed in you and the assurance is, all your needs will be met.He will not forsake you nor leave you without all your needs be met but do not lust or crave for the things of this earthly Jerusalem.It will corrupt you, eternally! It's a pathway to eternal destruction.Eventually,desolation will be inevitable.
Luke 16:13-15 (New International Version - UK)
No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.
The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all this and were sneering at Jesus.
Luke 16:15 (King James Version)
And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knows your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

You are Making It a Den of Robbers
Matthew 21:12-17 (New International Version)
Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. "It is written," he said to them, " 'My house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a 'den of robbers."
The blind and the lame came to him at the temple, and he healed them. But when the chief priests and the teachers of the law saw the wonderful things he did and the children shouting in the temple area, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they were indignant.
"Do you hear what these children are saying?" they asked him.
"Yes," replied Jesus, "have you never read,
" 'From the lips of children and infants
you have ordained praise'?"
And he left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where he spent the night.
The Lord Jesus Christ healed everyone who came with a sincere need to be healed.He prayed for them all.To the insincere, he chased them away and told them you didn't come to a place where prayer takes place for those in need of God's interference in their lives but you came, to steal,kill and destroy.He identified them as robbers.
Prayer and praise to God comes through the humble and seeking ones.To those not, He didn't want to have anything to do with them.He told them, you do not want to know the requirements of God the Father, but you want to do your own things here."Go away",he chased them. This is not the place for you,He told them strictly.

It Desires to Have You, but You Must Master It.
Genesis 4:7-9 (New International Version)
If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it."
Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?"
"I don't know," he replied. "Am I my brother's keeper?"
What do you realize here? After committing murder Cain adds one more deadly sin, and that is, lying.From one sin to another!.From jealousy to murder and from murder to lies and more lies.Sin desires to have you,from committing one to another,hence making you it's slave.Sin desires to make itself the master in your life.Does it ring a bell? The Devil desires to be your master and you it's slave through you obeying it's sinful nature in you.But just think of the eternal consequences of letting sin be the master in your life.
Revelation 21:8 (New International Version)
But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."
Are you going to let the Devil be the master in your life and allow sin in to destroy you forever or count yourselves dead to sin......
Romans 6:11-14 (New International Version)
In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness. For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.

Mene, Mene,Tekel,Parsin? Dont Mess With Me?
Daniel 5:25-28 (New International Version)
25 "This is the inscription that was written:
Mene , Mene , Tekel , Parsin
26 "This is what these words mean:
Mene : God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end.
27 Tekel : You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.
28 Peres : Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians."
In modern times, the words used may sound like this: "Don't mess with Me"..says the Lord.You have no fear of God.....you show no fear of who I AM.This is what the Lord was literally warning Belshazzar s/o Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon.You should have at least learnt from your past mistakes your father had committed against Me.....
Daniel 5:22-24 (New International Version)
"But you his son, O Belshazzar, have not humbled yourself, though you knew all this. Instead, you have set yourself up against the Lord of heaven. You had the goblets from his temple brought to you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or understand. But you did not honor the God who holds in his hand your life and all your ways. Therefore he sent the hand that wrote the inscription.
Just as your father was towards ME, you have not humbled yourself....

Perfect Example of Obedience to the Heavenly Father
Hebrews 5:7-10 (New International Version)
During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Although he was a son, he learned obedience from what he suffered and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him and was designated by God to be high priest in the order of Melchizedek.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the true 'Reverend'' because of his reverent submission to the will of the Heavenly Father. After He had completed being the perfect example of obedience to the Heavenly Father through the completed work on the Cross, He came alive and is seated at the Heavenly Father's right hand to intercede for us that we too would obey the Heavenly Father just as He did. He is interceding that the same obedience of his be formed in us through our faith in Him.Obedience to the Heavenly Father is the first nature of his that should be formed in us. The second nature of his that should be formed in us is His humility.The Lord Jesus Christ is the Perfect Intercessor.There is no one else who is as perfect as He is,except for the Holy Spirit on this earth, who intercedes for us on this earth to Christ.He reveals what we couldn't express to Christ our Lord and Heavenly Father.
Philippians 2:5-11 (New International Version)
Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:
Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,
but made himself nothing,
taking the very nature of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

Christformation from the True Vine
John 15:1-2 (New International Version)
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.
Christformation in us can only happen when we obey the Lord and choose to dwell in Him and in His words.Every branch that does not have Christ formed in it will be cut off, for it did not draw its strength from the Holy Spirit who leads us to all truth who leads us to eternal strength and full Christformation in us. Christ is that Word. The Holy Spirit of God leads us to Christ for Christformation in us. In order for full Christformation to happen in us, we must remain in His life-giving Word by obeying Him and every word that comes from His mouth that the Holy Spirit reminds us daily.We must obey Christ our Lord.
John 6:56-58 (New International Version)
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will live forever."

We have better and lasting possessions through Christformation in us
Hebrews chapter 10:32-39
Remember those earlier days after you had received the light, when you stood your ground in a great contest in the face of suffering. Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. You sympathized with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For in just a very little while,
"He who is coming will come and will not delay.
But my righteous one will live by faith.
And if he shrinks back,
I will not be pleased with him."But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved.
The will of God the Father is that we be filled with Christ through Christformation in us.Christformation in us is all of God's riches in us.Everything in this universe was made through Christ and for Him.

The Only Way Out of This World Is A Better Resurrection in Christ
Philippians 3:10-11 (New International Version)
I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.
The enemies of Christ thought that they had successfully got rid of Christ our Lord but they didn't, for He rose from the dead after three days. The enemies of the Gospel thought that they had got rid of the apostles but they didn't, for the apostles knew and spoke about a better resurrection and counted themselves worthy of Christ to carry their own crosses assigned to them.
To know Christ and the power of His resurrection, we will surely go through many trials and tribulations and have fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like Him in his death;despised,rejected and forsaken.But, somehow, we know that by the power of the Holy Spirit we will be raised to life again with a better resurrection. What is a better resurrection?. A better resurrection could only come through Christ. Jesus Christ our Lord is the firstborn of the resurrected.We will have a better resurrection like his because of Christformation in us. A life of obedience to Christ after we have believed in Him will lead to a better resurrection in Christ.We shall be clothed with the Christformation that had taken place in us through our obedience to the Holy Spirit, walking by faith and not by sight.
Hebrews 11:32-36 (New International Version)
And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel and the prophets, who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions, quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies. Women received back their dead, raised to life again. Others were tortured and refused to be released, so that they might gain a better resurrection. Some faced jeers and flogging, while still others were chained and put in prison.
We are not yearning for anything on this earth as it will all pass away in a day.We have the last enemy to conquer and that is 'Death'. In the Garden of Eden The Devil appeared as the Tree of knowledge of Good and Evil even when it was a 'Tree of Death'.This is how Adam and Eve were deceived into believing the lie.

Keep Watch with Me and Pray
Matthew 26:38 (New International Version)
Then he said to them, "My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me."
Yes, the Lord Jesus is interceding for us that all those who belong to Him have full Christformation in them.He knows this will not come easily for them too, as much as He had suffered to the point of death before He had gone to the Cross.He said to His disciples who were with Him "keep watch with me and pray". Why did He require them to "keep watch and pray".He said while others are still sleeping you keep watch and pray.While others don't care, you must keep watch and pray.Why was it so?
Matthew 26:40-41 (New International Version)
Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. "Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?" he asked Peter. "Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak
You will have to fight your tiredness to keep watch for at least an hour yourself to intercede along with the Lord Jesus Christ for Christformation in you, or else you will be tempted to quit or fall away from Christformation in you, what more, full Christformation in you that the Heavenly Father had willed for you and me who belong to Him for eternity.
Proverbs 8:34 (New International Version)
Blessed is the man who listens to me,
watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway.
You will have to listen(obey) to Christ and the Heavenly Father through the Holy Spirit for full Christformation in you. You will have to keep watch and pray and intercede with Him for this to happen in you and in others.yes, maybe lose your sleep,fight tiredness and pray so that you will not be tempted to quit full Christformation in you.You have to be actively sowing your time and effort for this to happen.You must obey what He says or else you will be tempted.

The sinful nature of the Devil in us
Romans 8:13 (New International Version)
For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live,
You and I are in a war. A spiritual war daily.You will have to fight till the end.It is either you who will die or the Enemy. The Enemy uses it's sinful nature that it sowed with the consent of Adam and Eve to attack you. What are you going to do with it's continual assault? Give in and give up to its assaults or fight till the end and win.We are made to be more than conquerors through Christ who nailed the sinful nature of the Devil on the cross.We can put it to death too through the power of Holy Spirit in us , today.Lets fight the Enemy daily and not give up at all.Lets depend on the power of the Holy Spirit to do that. We must obey God's voice through the Holy Spirit in us.When we obey Him, Christ will be formed in us. We have to be actively fighting and not become complacent or non-engaging in the fight.
Just imagine if Leonard Lewis or Evander Holyfield were non-engaging in their fights with Mike Tyson? What would have happened? We can predict the results right? More to come in this fight....

This is Just The Beginning of Birth Pangs (Pains)
Matthew 24:8 (New International Version)
All these are the beginning of birth pains.
Still pondering on who is having the birth pains? She is none other than the Heavenly Jerusalem.Who will be the child she will be delivering? Those in whom Christ is being formed.
Revelation 12:2 (New International Version)
She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth.
All these things happen for God's chosen nation to be born through Christformation in them.All these things will happen when she will be about to deliver the Heavenly Jerusalem with full Christformation in them.What are these things? In short, at the final stages of the existence of the devil( Satan) before it is anihilated from this earth forever with the fallen angels, False-prophet and the Anti-Christ. It will struggle and will try to cause a big stir all over the world.It will try to claim that it has a lot of followers too.There will be war, sometimes just rumours of it will send shivers down our spines because we will be afraid of prices of things soaring high. It is now.People will become greedier and start hoarding wealth for
themselves and their own families. They will be afraid to face any form of suffering because they have always lived in comfort and will tremble at the thought of going through suffering.
But all those with Christformation in them have come through the tested way and they have been purified more than gold and are still being purified and they will be ready.There will be a choice for them, to follow through with their Savior who never fails them or fall away.More to come.

Christformation In You is the Secret Wisdom of God
1 Corinthians 2:6-16 (New International Version)
We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. However, as it is written:
"No eye has seen,
no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived
what God has prepared for those who love him"— but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit.
Full Christformation in you is what has been prepared for those who love Him and keep His commandments.This, He has revealed to us by the powerful Spirit of God and His Christ in us.If we obey Him, this secret wisdom of God who is Christ formed in us will bring eternal glory to the Father, yes Doxa glory to God the Father.

A Secret Life Entrusted With The Secrets of God.
Matthew 6:1-4 (New International Version)
Christformation in you is your secret walk with God through Christ, as you are entrusted with the secrets of God through Christ by the revelations of the Holy Spirit in you.
Matthew 13:11-12 (New International Version)
He replied, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.
With these secrets of God you are required to have a secret walk with God in spirit and in truth.
"Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
"So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Matthew 6:5-6 (New International Version)
"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
Matthew 6:16-18 (New International Version)
"When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show men they are fasting. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Christformation is Not for Showmanship
Christformation is not for showmanship because it is all hidden, as much as God is hidden from our naked eyes.Can 'pregnancy' be for a show? No!
Galatians 4:19 (New International Version)
My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,
You may see the shape of it being formed on the outside, feel the pains inside,know that there is something in you thats growing and taking shape but you would not be able to see it until the end of that formation through delivery.Therefore, you cannot make a show of what you cannot see.You can only walk by faith.Christformation in you is not for a show of your piety.It's far from it.
Luke 11:39-41 (New International Version)
Then the Lord said to him, "Now then, you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. You foolish people! Did not the one who made the outside make the inside also? But give what is inside the dish to the poor, and everything will be clean for you.
However, Christformation in you is the Light of Christ and it cannot help but shine through.You cannot put that light of Christ in you under a bowl. Christ is already lifted high up on a hill and He will shine through Christformation in you. The more the Christformation in you through your personal obedience to Him, the brighter will be the Light of Christ shining in you first and then through you.
What can you give to the poor with Christformation in you?
Isaiah 61:1-11 (New International Version
1 The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
2 to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the LORD

Fishes from the Shallow Waters Are No Good
Luke 5:4-11 (New International Version)
When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch."
Simon answered, "Master, we've worked hard all night and haven't caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets."
When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus' knees and said, "Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!" For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon's partners.
Then Jesus said to Simon, "Don't be afraid; from now on you will catch men." So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.
When we catch fishes from shallow waters they are most of the time not good fishes.Likewise, when we catch men, they must be 'fishes' who are used to being in deep waters and not from shallow waters. Judas Iscariot was one such fish from shallow waters that could't survive in deep water.The Lord Jesus Christ allowed Judas Iscariot to be one of his twelve disciples to show us this example.Judas Iscariot settled for the shallow things of life and he didn't survive.
Today, we see many 'fishes' that are from shallow waters that cannot swim into deep waters. They would only settle for the shallow things of life and cannot grasp or understand the deep things of God.They wouldn't come into deep waters for fear that they won't make it, for they know that they can't swim in there.They are more comfortable and satisfied with their shallow surroundings.They would prefer to just settle for the temporal things of this earth.That makes them feel safe for the moment.
Their thoughts, minds and hearts will only be on the shallow things of life and they don't mind the easy path that leads to destruction.
James 1:25 (New International Version)
But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does.
On the contrary, the eleven other disciples found the 'deep waters' of the Word of God suitable for themselves and they "looked intently" into what was told to them by the Lord and most importantly, they obeyed His words. When you seek the shallow things of life, you will not obey the Lord or His words.
Proverbs 20:5 (New International Version)
The purposes of a man's heart are deep waters,
but a man of understanding draws them out.
The man of understanding with a born again spirit in Christ will allow the Holy Spirit to convict himself of the guilt of sin, righteousness and the coming judgment of God and His Christ.
Proverbs 20:27 (New International Version)
The lamp of the LORD searches the spirit of a man;
it searches out his inmost being.
Do we yield ourselves to the Holy Spirit to convict us of these above?
The Holy Spirit helps us with Christformation in us and these are the streams of Living Water(Christ)in us.
John 7:37-39 (New International Version)
On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him." By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.

It's All About Our Eyes....
Hebrews 12:2 (New International Version)
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the Author and the Perfecter of Christformation in us. We must walk by faith and not by sight. This pair of eyes is the eyes of faith in Christ. Christformation does not happen the moment your eyes of faith are not on Him, for He is the author and the perfecter of Christformation in us.He sits down at God the Father's right hand to intercede for us that Christformation He started in our born again spirit be perfected in our mind(soul)and our new eternal Christ-conformed body so that it will be raised to eternal life. Our eyes of faith in Him to complete Christformation in us must be obediently be on Him, as the Holy Spirit leads and guides us to Him for the Heavenly Father's glory. His Son is His greatest Glory!More so when He is formed in us fully.
Matthew 13:16-17 (New International Version)
But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
Abel and Cain were both born to Adam and Eve but what made the difference? God had opened the eyes of Abel to be able to see what God requires of him on earth but Cain's eyes was not opened to see the same requirement. God has to open our eyes for us to be able to see the Author and the Perfecter of our faith. For this is what God had warned Cain before he committed a great sin.
Genesis 4:6-7 (New International Version)
Then the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must master it."
God opened Abel's eyes to see this but not Cain's. Cain went on to sin but Abel went to God.

Three Convictions Are Needed For Full-Christformation In You.
John 16:8-11 (New International Version)
When He comes, He will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment: in regard to sin, because men do not believe in me; in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.
Firstly,The Holy Spirit will convict us about the need for the salvation of our soul (mind)-the transformation of our mind from a mind of death to a mind of life and peace in Christ which is the mind of Christ in us.
Romans 8:6-11 (New International Version)
The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.
You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives in you.
Romans 12:1-3 (New International Version)
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Secondly,The Holy Spirit will convict us about the need for the righteousness of Christ in us.Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for the righteousness of Christ to fill them.Filling yourself with the righteousness of Christ in your born again spirit is Christformation in you.This does not come easily but we need to carry our cross and follow Christ by obeying the Holy Spirit to put to death the misdeeds of the sinful nature so that the divine nature of Christ will be formed in us eternally.
2 Peter 1:3-4 (New International Version)
His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
Galatians 4:19 (New International Version)
My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you,
Thirdly, the Holy Spirit will convict you about the need for escaping eternal condemnation through Christ. He will remind us about the consequences of following Satan while we are on earth.We must be raised to life and be clothed with eternal life in Christ, and how do we go about preparing ourselves for that incorruptible Christ-conformed body as His.
1 Corinthians 15:48-49 (New International Version)
As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the man from heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we bear the likeness of the man from heaven.
2 Corinthians 3:18 (New International Version)
And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

The greatest blessing of God is Christformation in you.
The greatest blessing of God is Christformation in you. There is no other blessing of God that is greater than Christformation in you.This has been in God's calendar since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden.From Genesis to Revelation, Christformation in you has been God's plan for all mankind.If you resist Christformation in you , you have resisted Christ to be the King and Lord of your life eternally.
Matthew 6:33 (New International Version)
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
When we seek first His Kingdom and His Righteousness, we are seeking Christformation in us.If we seek first this greatest blessing of Christformation in us, then we shall be a blessing unto others and not a curse.
Genesis 12:1-3 (New International Version
1 The LORD had said to Abram, "Leave your country, your people and your father's household and go to the land I will show you.
2 "I will make you into a great nation
and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.
3 I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you."
You can only be a blessing to all people on earth through Christformation in you.
God is talking about eternal blessings and curses here.

Christformation is Building your House on the Rock.
Matthew 7:24-29 (New International Version)
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."
When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his teaching, because he taught as one who had authority, and not as their teachers of the law.
Christformation in you is your conscious effort of obedience to God and His Christ through the leading of The Holy Spirit in you. When you obey what God says to you through the Holy Spirit in you through His written Word, you are allowing Christ to be formed in you. Remember, He is that Word.When you obey that Word, you are obeying Christ. When you obey Christ and His words , Christ will be formed in you. There is no other way how you can please the Heavenly Father except through Christformation in you because this can only come through your complete obedience to Him and His words.
If you only name the name of Christ and do not obey Christ you will fail and fall with a great crash along the way.

The Whitewashed Wall Will Fall.
There is no fear of God everywhere, even after witnessing everything that God has done. There is more white-washing going on. Their pretense goes on while they continue in their sins.This white-washed wall will surely come down, this time it will.
Ezekiel 13:10-16 (New International Version)
" 'Because they lead my people astray, saying, "Peace," when there is no peace, and because, when a flimsy wall is built, they cover it with whitewash, therefore tell those who cover it with whitewash that it is going to fall. Rain will come in torrents, and I will send hailstones hurtling down, and violent winds will burst forth. When the wall collapses, will people not ask you, "Where is the whitewash you covered it with?"
" 'Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: In my wrath I will unleash a violent wind, and in my anger hailstones and torrents of rain will fall with destructive fury. I will tear down the wall you have covered with whitewash and will level it to the ground so that its foundation will be laid bare. When it falls, you will be destroyed in it; and you will know that I am the LORD. So I will spend my wrath against the wall and against those who covered it with whitewash. I will say to you, "The wall is gone and so are those who whitewashed it, those prophets of Israel who prophesied to Jerusalem and saw visions of peace for her when there was no peace, declares the Sovereign LORD." '

He moves mountains..........
God moves arrogant, strong and lofty mountains who think they cannot be moved. God rules the universe and everything in it. Anyone who does not ackowledge God and His works are arrogant. Anyone who does not acknowledge His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ is arrogant.They have called God a liar because God sent His Son to this earth to redeem us from Satan, but if you do not believe God and continue with the works of Satan, then you are arrogant. God has placed all His authority on His beloved Son , the Lord Jesus Christ and if you do not ackowledge it daily then you are arrogant.
All authority in heaven, on earth and underneath the earth belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ. No man is higher than Him.
Job 9:5-8 (New International Version)
5 He moves mountains without their knowing it
and overturns them in his anger.
6 He shakes the earth from its place
and makes its pillars tremble.
7 He speaks to the sun and it does not shine;
he seals off the light of the stars.
8 He alone stretches out the heavens
and treads on the waves of the sea.

Forgo Everything for Christformation In You
Matthew 18:7-9 (New International Version)
"Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to sin! Such things must come, but woe to the man through whom they come! If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.
Your eyes, hands, legs and all other organs in your body will be controlled by the sinful nature in you, only if you allow it. It's in your will to reject pleasing the sinful nature and submit to God's will instead. You commit sin by yielding to the sinful nature of the Devil in you. Forgo everything of the sinful nature of the Devil for full Christformation in you. Put to death the misdeeds of the sinful nature in you and you will live a life full of Christ.
Romans 8:13 (New International Version)
For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live.
Allow the The Lord Jesus Christ to circumcise away the sinful nature slowly but surely through your dependence and obedience to the leading of the Holy Spirit in you.
Hebrews 12:1-3 (New International Version)
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
Do you see how The Lord Jesus Christ is the Author and Perfecter of our Faith? Through Christformation to full Christformation in us.Will He fail us. NO!
Galatians 5:24 (New International Version)
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires.
The sinful nature of those who belong to the Lord Jesus Christ have been crucified on the cross. If we continue to please the sinful nature after we believe in Christ our Lord, how can we still say we belong to Him?
Colossians 2:11 (New International Version)
In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ,

Christformation is The Narrow Door
Make every effort for Christformation in you. Make every effort to obey the Holy Spirit for Christformation in you.It will be difficult and tough but you must persevere on, patiently enduring till the end. Every good and eternal work of Christformation in you happens as you painfully overcome all the evil power of the Enemy in you. As you choose to put to death the sinful nature of the Devil in you, you will be tried severely.You will need the strength and dependence on the Holy Spirit who helps us with Christformation in us.He will never fail you. Christ our Lord will never fail you as He is interceding at the Heavenly Father's right hand that His divine natures be formed in you successfully.But, He needs your every effort
Luke 13:24-30 (New International Version)
He said to them, "Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to. Once the owner of the house gets up and closes the door, you will stand outside knocking and pleading, 'Sir, open the door for us.'
"But he will answer, 'I don't know you or where you come from.'
"Then you will say, 'We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.'
"But he will reply, 'I don't know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!'
"There will be weeping there, and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves thrown out. People will come from east and west and north and south, and will take their places at the feast in the kingdom of God. Indeed there are those who are last who will be first, and first who will be last."

The Be-attitudes are about Christformation in you.
It takes a lot of obedience on our part to be the blessed one below. These blessings do not just come to us freely. It takes a lot of obedience, as I've just said. Like in the Old Testament times, if you obey there are blessings for you and if you don't you earn the curses due to you.
Obedience to the Lord comes through the fear of the Lord.The fear of the Lord is heavenly wisdom in us . Christ is that Wisdom of God. In order for Christ to be formed in us, we must obey the Lord. If we have chosen the path of full obedience to the Lord we will reap full-Christformation in ourselves. The Holy Spirit of God will help us with this if we humble ourselves fully and seek His help for this to happen.
If we depend on our own human strength we will fail miserably.
Let us make that effort to obey the Be-attitudes of the Lord with the help of the Holy Spirit in us. If you lack wisdom, ask the Lord and He will give it to you. What is this wisdom? Yes, it's the fear of the Lord! We need the fear of the Lord to obey God and His commandments.This is heavenly wisdom.Christformation happens in us when we obey Christ and all His commandments to us. The commandments of Christ are meant to be obeyed for Christformation in us.
Matthew 5:1-12 (New International Version)
Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, and he began to teach them saying:
"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
"Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.
Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Greed is Idolatry.
Philippians 3:17-19 (New International Version)
Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you. For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things.
Colossians 3:5 (New International Version)
Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry.
Greed opens the door to many other sins. Greed for power, money, fame and recognition in this world leads you to many other sins. It will show the absence of the fear of God in you.Money and more money in your possession today is seen as power, yes worldly power! In fact the Bible says the same too.
Ecclesiastes 7:12 (New International Version)
Wisdom is a shelter
as money is a shelter,
but the advantage of knowledge is this:
that wisdom preserves the life of its possessor
The love of money is the root of all evil.
1 Timothy 6:3-10 (New International Version)
If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, he is conceited and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.
But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
Greed is a trap and leads to many other sins like jealousy,strife,pride,arrogance,
evil intentions and even murder. To cover up these sins you may commit sexual immorality.The guilt attached to greed will make you commit more sins.Greed is corrupt behaviour.Greed is linked to harmful desires.Ruin and destruction is found on the pathway of greed. It is an abomination. The Lord Jesus Christ warned us of this sin.
Luke 12:15-21 (New International Version)
Then he said to them, "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions."
And he told them this parable: "The ground of a certain rich man produced a good crop. He thought to himself, 'What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.'
"Then he said, 'This is what I'll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I'll say to myself, "You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry." '
"But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?'
"This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God."
This abomination will cause desolation to this world eventually.
Luke 16:13-15 (New International Version)
"No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money."
The Pharisees, who loved money, heard all this and were sneering at Jesus. He said to them, "You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of men, but God knows your hearts. What is highly valued among men is detestable in God's sight.
Today, money is so highly regarded among men. When money is regarded more important than Christformation in you, especially among those who claim to be Christians, then we know 'abomination that causes desolation' has already come.This abomination eventually causes desolation. I am talking about greed for money.Greed for money desolates everything around you.
Revelation 17:3-6 (New International Version)
Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. This title was written on her forehead:
MYSTERY
BABYLON THE GREAT
THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.
The word 'Prostitute' was first used to refer to someone who 'earns' money by illegally selling her body to men through illicit sex."I'll give you pleasure but you give me money" deal that a prostitute makes.
The Prophet Daniel prophesied about this abomination.
Daniel 12:9-12 (New International Version)
He replied, "Go your way, Daniel, because the words are closed up and sealed until the time of the end. Many will be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand.
"From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days. Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.
Eventually sinful men with the help of the lawless Man will make money their 'God'.Apostle Paul warned us so:
2 Thessalonians 2:3-12 (New International Version)
Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for (that day will not come) until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
Don't you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things? And now you know what is holding him back, so that he may be revealed at the proper time. For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.
