How can we, in our finite beings, understand and grasp something so vast as the Kingdom of God?
By a process of renewal, God generously loves us and patiently leads us from our fleshly perspective into our true spiritual selves. God is available always to lead us into spiritual reality.
It is in our personhood – experiences, feelings, thoughts and will – where we come to know exactly what the spiritual is.
Our “spirit” is who we are and from which we cannot escape. It is our true nature and destiny.
Our “spirit” was created by God for Him to communicate His life and purpose into our daily life.
John 3:36 (MSG) - That is why whoever accepts and trusts the Son gets in on everything, life complete and forever!
He thus enables us to know His truth, to do His truth. This truth is partial and incomplete – I Corinthians 13:12 – Now I know in part. His truth empowers me to interact with Him in His Kingdom rule.
His truth equips us to live our purpose as we function in a conscious, personal relationship of interactive responsibility with Him.
Eternal life also means His Spirit dwells within us – we are “born of His Spirit” (John 3:5).
We are spirit, we have a soul, and we live in a body.
God created every living thing to live within its natural habitat. What it is, dictates its world. Move it out of its special environment and it struggles and dies.
As human beings we are created to live spiritual lives deriving our life from His life. It is the way we are created to live.
Day by day we are to integrate our life into the spiritual world of His Kingdom rule.
Increasingly as we do this, our life is filled with His wisdom, knowledge, strength and power.
You and I are made for the spiritual environment of His Kingdom rule.
