This certainly doesn’t need to happen to begin with, but if a believer gets a diagnosis of something permanent, chronic, incurable, or hard to fix, they may suddenly feel like, “This isn’t really happening to me.” They may feel, “This is so foreign, it can’t even be real.” While the world would tell you you’re in denial, I am here to tell you that, as far as the permanent nature of it, you’re right. It’s not really happening to you. Let me explain.

When the church teaches about people living forever or being raised from the dead, it is most commonly taught as something that will occur when Jesus comes back. I am here to tell you that immortality and the resurrection of the dead is something we have received through Jesus’ first coming on the cross, not through His second coming.

The resurrection of the dead is not something that is unusual or uncommon to born-again believers, who have the same power that raised Jesus from the dead living inside of them. If it seems unusual, it is because we are just out of the loop! We simply don’t realize the very power living inside of us. Power to raise the dead is a normal, everyday thing for us.

Most Christians will admit that physical death was a curse placed on Adam for his sin (Romans 8:10). And yet, most Christians also believe that everyone has “their time” to die, and our loving Father “calls us all home” at one point or another. If you didn’t know, those are just fancy ways of referring to death. So I’m confused. Is death a curse placed on lawbreakers or is it some beautiful finale that God appoints, even to His children?

Ephesians 1:19-20 (NKJV) and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead...

Do you believe that Jesus is the only way for us to receive from a holy God? If you do, you will love this article. Of course, we don’t deserve God’s grace by our works, but Jesus paid the price so that we could receive it! That’s Christianity 101. Many people think that they already believe those statements, and perhaps you do, but you’d be surprised at how many Christians contradict this.

In our last part, we introduced the concept that Peter spoke of, regarding submission without fear. This world submits for fear of consequences or for the control that they feel someone has over their life. But we submit to authority voluntarily, for the Lord’s sake, without any fear or terror.

In Christ, all believers have the same thing, through the same cross. None of us differ in the grace that we have received from God, because we received it through the same payment. And while that is true, while we are growing, we don’t all play the same role, not in this world, in a family, or a ministry. God has us perform different jobs so that we are not all doing the same thing (1 Corinthians 12:4-7). And in these various structures that God has set forth, there will be authority figures for us to submit to, but there’s a right way to do that.

When you’ve gone through some addiction, habit, sickness, or pain for a long time, many people, and unfortunately many believers as well, feel sort of trapped or stuck, wondering if this thing will ever go away. I’ve got good news for you. As a believer you are a slave to righteousness and God’s life-giving power. That’s the only thing you’re stuck in. Let’s unpack that.

It’s true that we should assemble with like-minded believers consistently. It’s true that we should avoid the company of those who scoff at the gospel or aren’t willing to hear. It’s also true that we need to make time to speak with people that may disagree with us now, but are willing to hear. Those are all true statements, but there are some other factors to consider as well…

Recently we’ve been talking about two groups of people. There are those who believe and are growing in the same truth that you are. God says to never forsake assembling with these people. On the other hand, there are people who are not willing to hear the truth. After being given ample opportunity, the Bible says to shake the dust off your feet and move on. But what about everyone else in between?
