Part-6 Descriptions: We are sealed for ADOPTION to conform to the Way of God—to be like Father like son: God is Righteous, we need to become righteous. God is Holy, we need to become holy. God is Love, we need to become loving. God is Merciful, we need to become merciful. God is Gracious, we need to become gracious. God is longsuffering or Patient, we need to become patient. God is understanding and forgiving we need to become understanding and forgiving. God is abundant in goodness and truth, we need to do good works and never lie. Our Father-God—Jesus Christ is obedient even to the death on the cross, never disobey the commandments, giving us an example to follow in this present life and the life to come—the Only Way to Gods kingdom. We need to become obedient, even to the point of undue sufferings and death for the sake of the Truth—the Gospel of Christ. We could be like our Heavenly Father only if we will put aside all the worldly things and ways and start to live a Spiritual ways of life being led by the Holy Spirit; the seal of ADOPTION (guaranteed) in Gods family of holy saints, having the right to call God Abba Father, accepted as His children of redemption, being forgiven for all our sins, for without holiness, we will never see and enter the kingdom of God. We can never deny the truth that to know God, to praise God and to love God is to do good works, which means to obey Gods Commandments that lasts forever. Even forbidden foods that God said are unclean for us to consume, when we ate, it makes us filthy and when we disobey His commands, we became a sinner: without holiness you will never enter the kingdom of God. When God ADOPTED us as son, we became a Holy Citizen of Heaven; therefore, we are no longer a citizen of this world. We no longer desire worldly things, knowing we doesnt belong here, we were just passing through. Our worldly desires had passed-away with our old- self, crucified in the cross of death. We are eagerly looking forward to the New Heavens and New Earth, the home and kingdom of righteousness, love peace and prosperity. Everything we desire now is heavenward. We love to obey and please God always and not ourselves.
AMEN my brother in Christ. Thanks for the precious blood of the risen Savior Jesus Christ.
