In being a New Testament Christian, we possess the Divine Attributes of God and the Divine Attributes of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life. "He that overcometh (the forces of evil), the same shall be clothed in white raiment (having his Divine Attributes perfected); and I will not blot out his Name out of the book of life, but I will confess has Name before my Father, and before his angels." Revelation 3:5 Therefore, since we can possess the Divine Character of God and the Divine Character of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own divine nature of life because in our Heavenly Home we will have our Divine Attributes of life perfected so that it would be impossible for us to commit a sin. I am Charles Burke. Let me describe the Divine Attributes of God and the Divine Attributes of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that we can learn more about the greatness of our own immortality of life.
BEING LOVABLE I. We have been created so that we can become a lovable person because God, who is our Creator,is love. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16 Now, since God is love, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a lovable person. We have been created with the ability to be lovable and the desire to be lovable. This is why we are commanded to be a lovable person. "Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the Law." Romans 13:8 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we must know that God created us so that we could become a lovable person because God is love. This means that in heaven we will become all that God is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are the heirs of God. The Bible says, "We are the heirs of God." Romans 8:16-17 II. We have been redeemed so that we can become a lovable person because Christ, who is our Redeemer, is love. "For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead; And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again." 2 Corinthians 5:14-15 Now, since Christ is love, this highly amplifies all aspects of our own redemption of life because Christ redeemed us so that we could become a lovable person. We have been redeemed with the ability to be lovable and the desire to be lovable. This is why we are commanded to prove our discipleship. "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another." John 13:35 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life we must realize that Christ redeemed us so that we could become a lovable person because Christ is love. This signifies that in heaven we will become all that Christ is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are joint-heirs (equal heirs) with Christ. The Bible says, "We are joint-heirs with Christ." Romans 8:16-17 III. Who are the Persons that possess the lovable character of God and the lovable character of Christ in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life? A. The Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the lovable character of God in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life because God in being the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit created our own divine nature of life free of sin. This is why God said, "Let us (who are the Persons that are called God) make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in his own image" (of life). John said concerning those three Persons who equally are called God in being our Creator, "For there are three (Persons) that bear record (of our creation) in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit: and these three (Persons) are one" (equal) in power, rule authority because They equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life. Genesis 1:26-27, 1 John 5:7 B. The Father and the Son Relationship which exist between God and Christ is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in being our Redeemer) said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in matters of our own redemption of life, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2:34-36, Matthew 28:18-20 C. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the lovable character of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life because Christ in being the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit redeemed our own divine nature of life from the guilt of sin. This is why we in being an alien sinner must be baptized into Christ for the remission of our sins by being baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit so that we can become a New Testament Christian. Our Lord said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must perfect the love of God and the love of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own lovable character of life. "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." Matthew 22:36-40 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the love of God and the love of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Lovable Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING HOLY I. We have been created so that we can become a holy because God, who is our Creator, is holy. "Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come" Revelation 4:8 Now, since God is holy, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a holy person. We have been created with the capacity to be holy and the ambition to be holy. This is why we are commanded to be a holy person. "As he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation: Because it is written, be ye holy; for I am holy." 1 Peter 1:15-16 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we must realize that God created us so that we could become a holy person because God is holy. This means that in heaven we will become all that God is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are the heirs of God. The Bible says, "We are the heirs of God." Romans 8:16-17 II. We have been redeemed so that we can become a holy person because Christ, who is our Redeemer, is holy. "Ye (the Jewish Leaders) denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you." Acts 3:14 Now, since Christ is holy, this highly amplifies all aspects of our own redemption of life because Christ redeemed us so that we could become a holy person. We have been redeemed with the capacity to be holy and the ambition to be holy. This is why we are growing unto an holy temple in the Lord. "In whom (Christ) all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord. In whom (Christ) ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit." Ephesians 2:21-22 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life, we should realize that Christ redeemed us so that we could become a holy person because Christ is holy. This signifies that in heaven we will become all that Christ is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are joint-heirs (equal heirs) with Christ. "The Bible says, "We are joint-heirs with Christ." Romans 8:16-17 III. Who are the Persons that possess the holy character of God and the holy character of Christ in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life? A. The Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the holy character of God in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life because God in being the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit created our own divine nature of life free of sin. This is why God said, "Let us (who are the Persons that are called God) make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in his own image" (of life). John said concerning those three Persons equally who are called God in being our Creator, "For there are three (Persons) that bear record (of our creation) in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit: and these three (Persons) are one" (equal) in power, rule authority because They equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life. Genesis 1:26-27, 1 John 5:7 B. The Father and the Son Relationship which exist between God and Christ is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in being our Redeemer) said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in matters of our own redemption of life, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2:34-36, Matthew 28:18-20 C. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the holy character of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life because Christ in being the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit redeemed our own divine nature of life from the guilt of sin. This is why we in being an alien sinner must be baptized into Christ for the remission of our sins by being baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit so that we can become a New Testament Christian. Our Lord said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must develop the holiness of God and the holiness of Christ in reference to our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own holy character of life. "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service." Romans 12:1 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the holiness of God and the holiness of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Holy Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING MERCIFUL I. We have been created so that we can become a merciful person because God, who is our Creator, is merciful. "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more." Hebrews 8:12 Now, since God is merciful, this greatly magnifiesthe whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a merciful person. We have been created with the talent to be merciful and the craving to be merciful. This is why we are commanded to be a merciful person. "Blessed are the merciful; for they shall obtain mercy." Matthew 5:7 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we must conceive that God created us so that we could become a merciful person because God is merciful. This means that in heaven we will become all that God is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are the heirs of God. The Bible says, "We are the heirs of God." Romans 8:16-17 II. We have been redeemed so that we can become a merciful person because Christ, who is our Redeemer, is merciful. Our Lord said, "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." Luke 23:24 Now, since Christ is merciful, this highly amplifies all aspects of our own redemption of life because Christ redeemed us so that we could become a merciful person. We have been redeemed with the talent to be merciful and the craving to be merciful. This is why we are commanded to be merciful in all of our dealings with each other. "Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even, as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." Ephesians 4:32 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life, we need to realize that Christ redeemed us so that we could become a merciful person because Christ is merciful. This signifies that in heaven we will become all that Christ is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are joint-heirs (equal heirs) with Christ.

For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must enhance the mercy of God and the mercy of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own merciful character of life. "If ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." Matthew 6:14-15 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the mercy of God and the mercy of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Merciful Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING FAITHFUL I. We have been created so that we can become a faithful person because God, who is our Creator, is faithful. "There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able to bear; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:13 Now, since God is faithful, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a faithful person. We have been created with the capability to be faithful and the yearning to be faithful. This is why we are commanded to be a faithful person. "He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much; and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much." Luke 16:10 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we need to know that God created us so that we could become a faithful person because God is faithful.

This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in being our Redeemer) said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in matters of our own redemption of life, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."

For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must produce the faithfulness of God and the faithfulness of Christ in reference to our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own faithful character of life. "Fear none of those things which thou shall suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you in prison, that ye may be tried: and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life." Revelation 2:10 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the faithfulness of God and the faithfulness of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Faithful Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING JUST I. We have been created so that we can become a just person because God, who is our Creator, is just. "Justice and judgment are the habitation of thine throne; mercy and truth shall go before thy face." Psalms 89:14 Now, since God is just, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a just person. We have been created with the ability to be just and the desire to be just. This is why we are commanded to be a just person. "God hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doeth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humble with thy God." Micah 6:8 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we should realize that God created us so that we could become a just person because God is just.

Acts 3:14 Now, since Christ is just, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because Christ redeemed us so that we could become a just person. We have been redeemed with the ability to be just and the desire to be just. This is why we are commanded to be just in all of our dealing with each other. "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it (the gospel) is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, the just shall live by faith." Romans 1:16-17 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life, we must conceive that Christ redeemed us so that we could become a just person because Christ is just. This signifies that in heaven we will become all that Christ is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are joint-heirs (equal heirs) with Christ. The Bible says, "We are joint-heirs with Christ." Romans 8:16-17 III.

Genesis 1:26-27, 1 John 5:7 B. The Father and the Son Relationship which exist between God and Christ is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in being our Redeemer) said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in matters of our own redemption of life, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."

Our Lord said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must magnify the justice of God and the justice of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own just character of life. "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of a good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise think on these things." Philippians 4:8 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the justice of God and the justice of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Just Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING RIGHTEOUS I. We have been created so that we can become a righteous person because God, who is our Creator, is righteous. "The Lord our God is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works." Psalms 145:17 Now, since God is righteous, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a righteous person. We have been created with the capacity to be righteous and the ambition to be righteous. This is why we are commanded to be a righteous person. "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matthew 5:6 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life, we should know that God created us so that we could become a righteous person because God is righteous. This means that in heaven we will become all that God is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are the heirs of God. The Bible says, "We are the heirs of God." Romans 8:16-17 II. We have been redeemed so that we can become a righteous person because Christ, who is our Redeemer, is righteous. "Thou (Christ) lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness; Therefore God, thy God hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows." Hebrew 1:9 Now, since Christ is righteous, this highly amplifies all aspects of our own redemption of life because Christ redeemed us so that we could become a righteous person. We have been redeemed with the capacity to be righteous and the ambition to be righteous. This is why we are commanded to be righteous in all of our religious activates. "Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:10 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life, we should realize that Christ redeemed us so that we could become a righteous person because Christ is righteous. This signifies that in heaven we will become all that Christ is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are joint-heirs (equal heirs) with Christ. The Bible says, "We are joint-heirs with Christ." Romans 8:16-17 III. Who are the Persons that possess the righteous character of God and the righteous character of Christ in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life? A. The Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the righteous character of God in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life because God in being the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit created our own divine nature of life free of sin. This is why God said, "Let us (who are the Persons that are called God) make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in his own image" (of life). John said concerning those three Persons who equally are called God in being our Creator, "For there are three (Persons) that bear record (of our creation) in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit: and these three (Persons) are one" (equal) in power, rule authority because They equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life. Genesis 1:26-27, 1 John 5:7 B. The Father and the Son Relationship which exist between God and Christ is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in being our Redeemer) said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in matters of our own redemption of life, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2:34-36, Matthew 28:18-20 C. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the righteous character of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life because Christ in being the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit redeemed our own divine nature of life from the guilt of sin. This is why we in being an alien sinner must be baptized into Christ for the remission of our sins by being baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit so that we can become a New Testament Christian. Our Lord said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must perfect the righteousness of God and the righteousness of Christ in reference to our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own righteous character of life. "For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the Scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:20 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the righteousness of God and the righteousness of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Righteous Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING GOOD I. We have been created so that we can become a good person because God, who is our Creator, is good. "Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou shalt be cut off." Romans 11:22 Now, since God is good, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a good person. We have been created with the talent to be good and the craving to be good. This is why we are commanded to be a good person. "Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy, That they do good, and that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate." 1 Timothy 6:16-17 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we should realize that God created us so that we could become a good person because God is good.

This is why God said, "Let us (who are the Persons that are called God) make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in his own image" (of life). John said concerning those three Persons who equally are called God in being our Creator, "For there are three (Persons) that bear record (of our creation) in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit: and these three (Persons) are one" (equal) in power, rule authority because They equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life. Genesis 1:26-27, 1 John 5:7 B. The Father and the Son Relationship which exist between God and Christ is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in being our Redeemer) said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in matters of our own redemption of life, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."

Now, we must improve the goodness of God and the goodness of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own good character of life. "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Ephesians 2:10 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the goodness of God and the goodness of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Good Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING JEALOUS I. We have been created so that we can become a jealous person because God, who is our Creator, is jealous. "For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, IS A JEALOUS GOD." Exodus 34:14 Now, since God is jealous, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a jealous person. We have been created with the capability to be jealous and the yearning to be jealous. This is why we are commanded to be a jealous person in righteous deeds. "All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people. Therefore, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you." Romans 10:19-21 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we must know that God created us so that we could become a jealous person because God is jealous. This means that in heaven we will become all that God is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are the heirs of God. The Bible says, "We are the heirs of God."

And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changer's of money sitting: And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and oxen; and poured out the changer's money, and overthrew the tables, And said unto them that sold doves, take these things hence; made not my Father's house an house of merchandise. And his disciples remembered that it was written, the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up." John 2:13-17 Now, since Christ is jealous, this highly amplifies all aspects of our own redemption of life because Christ redeemed us so that we could become a jealous person. We have been created with the capability to be jealous and the yearning to be jealous. This is why we are jealous over righteous works. "For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ." 2 Corinthians 11:2 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life, we need to perceive that Christ redeemed us so that we could become a jealous person because Christ is jealous.

Now, we must enhance the jealousness of God and the jealousness of Christ in reference to our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own jealous character of life. "Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of the devils. Ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and the table of devils. Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?" 1 Corinthians 10:22-23 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we can become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the jealousness of God and the jealousness of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Jealous Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.

We have been created with the capacity to be longsuffering and the ambition to be longsuffering. This is why we are commanded to be longsuffering in all of our deeds in life.

For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must refine the unchangeable character of God and the unchangeable character of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own unchangeable character of life. "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord." 1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the unchangeableness of God and the unchangeableness of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Unchangeable Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
BEING GRACIOUS I. We have been created so that we can become a gracious person because God, who is our Creator, is gracious. "The God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you." 1 Peter 5:10 Now, since God is gracious, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own creation of life because God created us so that we could become a gracious person. We have been created with the capability to be gracious and the yearning to be gracious. This is why we are commanded to be gracious in all of our dealings in life. "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man." Colossians 4:6 Therefore, if we want to learn more about the greatness of our own creation of life, we must know that God created us so that we could become a gracious person because God is gracious. This means that in heaven we will become all that God is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are the heirs of God. The Bible says, "We are the heirs of God." Romans 8:16-17 II. We have been redeemed so that we can become a gracious person because Christ, who is our Redeemer, is gracious. "I marvel that ye are soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel." Galatians 1:6 Now, since Christ is gracious, this highly amplifies the whole being of our own redemption of life because Christ redeemed us so that we could become a gracious person. We were redeemed with the capability to be gracious and the yearning to be gracious. This is why we are commanded to be gracious in all of our religious activates. "Be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus." 2 Timothy 2:1 Therefore, if we desire to learn more about the greatness of our own redemption of life, we should realize that Christ redeemed us so that we could become a gracious person because Christ is gracious. This signifies that in heaven we will become all that Christ is in the way of Personage, Power, Nature and Attributes of life because we are joint-heirs (equal heirs) with Christ. The Bible says, "We are joint-heirs with Christ." Romans 8:16-17 III. Who are the Persons that possess the gracious character of God and the gracious character of Christ in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life? A. The Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the gracious character of God in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life because God in being the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit created our own divine nature of life free of sin. This is why God said, "Let us (who are the Persons that are called God) make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in his own image" (of life). John said concerning those three Persons who equally are called God in being our Creator, "For there are three (Persons) that bear record (of our creation) in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit: and these three (Persons) are one" (equal) in power, rule authority because They equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life. Genesis 1:26-27, 1 John 5:7 B. The Father and the Son Relationship which exist between God and Christ is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in being our Redeemer) said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in matters of our own redemption of life, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2:34-36, Matthew 28:18-20 C. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the gracious character of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life because Christ in being the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit redeemed our own divine nature of life from the guilt of sin. This is why we in being an alien sinner must be baptized into Christ for the remission of our sins by being baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit so that we can become a New Testament Christian. Our Lord said concerning those three Persons who equally would be called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Matthew 28:18-20, Galatians 3:27 IV. What does the Lord require of our own created and redeemed nature of life? Now, we must produce the graciousness of God and the graciousness of Christ in reference to our own creation and redemption of life so that we can become like those three Persons who created and redeemed our own gracious character of life. "Wherefore we receiving a kingdom (the church) which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire." Hebrews 12:28-29 Therefore, if we keep the commandments, we will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally possess the graciousness of God and the graciousness of Christ in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because in heaven we will equally possess Their Gracious Character of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life.
THE CONCLUSION I. The Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the Divine Attributes of God in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life because God in being the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit created our own divine nature of life free of sin. II. The Father and the Son Relationship which exist between God and Christ is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. III. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are the three Persons who equally possess the Divine Attributes of Christ in reference to Their Own Individual Nature of life because Christ in being the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit redeemed our own divine nature of life from the guilt of sin. IV. God and Christ are the two Divine Names in which three Persons who equally are working in matters of our own creation and redemption of life because we have been created and redeemed by three equal Persons who are called God and Christ in being our Creator and our Redeemer so that in that world which is to come we can become equal (having power, rule and authority) with Them. A. We will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally are called God and Christ in being our Creator and our Redeemer because in heaven we will possess Their Spiritual Personage of life which will be a Spiritual Body, and an Eternal Soul and Spirit in matters of Our Own Individual Nature of life. "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is sown a nature body, it is raised a spiritual body, There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. Who (our Lord) shall change our vile body (our fleshly body), that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body (His Spiritual Body), according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. And as we have borne the image of the earthy (the earthy man who possesses a physical body, and an Eternal Soul and Spirit), we shall also bear the image of the heavenly" (the Spiritual Person who has a Spiritual Body, and an Eternal Soul and Spirit). 1 Thessalonians 5:23, 1 Corinthians 15:44, Philippians 3:21,1 Corinthians 15:49 B. We will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally are called God and Christ in being our Creator and our Redeemer because in heaven we will possess Their Divine Powers of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life. "If we suffer, we shall also reign (rule) with him (the Lord our God). If we deny him, he also will deny us. To him that overcometh (the forces of evil) will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. And to him will I give power over the nations. And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. And they shall reign (rule) for ever and ever" (over the powers of Satan). 2 Timothy 2:12, Revelation 3:21, Revelation 2:26-27, Revelation 22:5 C. We will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally are called God and Christ in being our Creator and our Redeemer because in heaven we will possess Their Divine Nature of life in matters of Our Own Individual Nature of life. "It is written in your law, I said, Ye (created men) are gods. If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scriptures can not be broken. God has given unto us many exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. Him that overcometh (the powers of Satan) will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Of whom (God) the whole family in heaven and earth is named." John 10:34-35, 2 Peter 1:4, Revelation 3:12, Ephesians 3:15 D. We will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally are called God and Christ in being our Creator and our Redeemer because in heaven we will possess Their Divine Attributes of life in reference to Our Own Individual Being of life. "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. Be ye also merciful, as your Father also is merciful. He that overcometh (the powers of sin), the same shall be clothed in white raiment (having his Divine Attributes Perfected): and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angles. For there shall in no wise enter into it (the Heavenly City) any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life." Matthew 5:48, Luke 6:36, Revelation 3:5, Revelation 21:27 E. We will become equal (having power, rule and authority) with those three Persons who equally are called God and Christ in being our Creator and our Redeemer because in heaven we will possess Their Immortality of life in matters of Our Own Individual Nature of life. "Which in his times he shall shew who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords: Who only hath immortality (the Lord in all of His Power and Glory only has immortality, but the Lord has promised to give unto us those same Spiritual Blessings of Immortality), dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. To them (the Christians) who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life." 1 Timothy 6:15-16, Romans 2:7
THE APPLICATION I. We can't Scripturally make a centralized head (a ranked hierarchy) to rule in the New Testament Church because we are all equal in matters of our own creation and redemption of life. This is why the clergy and the laity class of people can not Scripturally exist in the New Testament Church because no one redeemed person can Scripturally rule a congregation of the Lord's Church. Therefore, we should not call any redeemed person: Reverend or Father because those are Divine Titles which belong unto the Lord our God (not redeemed man). "Holy and reverend is his name. Call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." Psalms 111:9, Matthew 23:9 II. We can't Scripturally make any created person to be any greater than we are in a created way, nor can we Scripturally make any created person to be any less than we are in a created way because we are equal in matters of our own creation of life. This is why no one race of people is any greater than another race of people because we are all equal in reference to our own creation of life. Therefore, we should not respect any one person above another person because God is no respecter of persons. "Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. If ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors, For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilt of all." Acts 10:34-35, James 2:9-10 III. We can't Scripturally make any redeemed person to be any greater than we are in a redeemed way, nor can we Scripturally make any redeemed person to be any less than we are in a redeemed way because we are all equal in matters of our own redemption of life. This means that no one priest, elder, or bishop has any more power, rule and authority than another priest, elder or bishop because no one redeemed man can Scripturally rule a congregation of the Lord's Church. Each congregation of the New Testament Church is autonomous (self-ruled) because of the equality of our own creation and redemption of life. Therefore, Christ (not a redeemed man) is the head of the Church. "Christ isthe head (the ruler) of the church; and he is saviour of the body: the Church."
