Express Image

Beloved just as Jesus Christ in the form of human flesh was the express image of the Father. God has planned for you and me in the form of human flesh to be the express image of Christ to a hurting, lost, and dying world. (1 John 3:2; Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.) (1 John 4:17; Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.)

God is a God of plan, purpose, design, and objectivity. God planned thru Christ’s death and resurrection, Many sons would be born who would be the EXPRESS image of HIS son Jesus Christ. That we would also become joint-heirs with HIM. Beloved Jesus stripped Himself of His divine attributes, and came to earth in the form of human flesh. Was anointed by the Holy Ghost, lived a sinless life, healed the sick, cast out demons, raised the dead, and defeated satan on every occasion- leaving us an example to follow. ( Philp 2:5-8; Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.)

Jesus’ life on earth as a son of God is to be our example of how our lives as sons of God should be. We must grasp this revelation. Beloved, you are part of God’s end-time plan. He has planned for you to be the EXPRESS Image of Jesus here on the earth. Beloved, we often struggle through the weakness of our flesh, knowing our human limitations but in Christ Jesus, we can do all things. Our confidence should never be in our own human ability but only in God’s ability in us to bring to pass what He has ordained. This type of divine life in Christ is Radical (departure from the usual or traditional) Christianity compared to the wish-washy that we see in the world today. Beloved, we must depart from the dry, dead religious traditions of man and become radical for God! Traditional religion has taught us that it is not possible for a son and daughter of God to walk in the POWER of God! Beloved we have been taught by religious leaders that the gifts of the Holy Spirit have passed away. We have brought the level of our experiences down to match our experience instead of our experiences being raised to conform with the word of God.

Beloved, you must get the revelation of who you are right now in Christ Jesus. You can walk among men on this earth as a son of almighty God. Beloved as Jesus walked the earth as the EXPRESS Image of the Father, you can walk the face of the earth as the EXPRESS Image of God! Beloved when you realize, when you know beyond any doubt who you are in Christ Jesus, you will KNOW.

That God has begotten you by His spirit

That God has birthed the life of Christ, the all-powerful, eternal son of God in you.

That the fullness of the Godhead dwells in you.

That you are daily by His Spirit being transformed into the very image of His Son.

That you are a joint heir with Christ.

That everything Christ has now belongs to you.
