THAT WHICH IS MORE GLORIOUS. There was a shinning light, the glory of the Lord which was visible in the countenance of Moses after his visit with the Lord, on mount Sinai. So much so that he had to veil his face for they could not look upon him. If the giving of the Law was accompanied by such a majestic glory. Most certainly the ministry of the Spirit is much greater. 2 Cor. 3:7-8 The ministry of condemnation was administered with a great and visible glory. Therefore, the ministration of the Spirit will most certainly be manifest with a glory that by far exceeds the former. It is the ministry which produces righteousness and holiness. 2 Cor. 3:9 So much greater and more extensive is the glory of righteousness that it outshines the glory of the Law, making the Law to appear as if it did not exist, so much greater is the glory of grace. 2 Cor. 3:10
THE VERY NATURE OF THE FATHER IS MANIFEST IN HIS GLORY. He is the Lord of glory. That infinite glory is made apparent in the face of the Lord Jesus. Mt. 17:2 Our eyes of understanding, of spiritual things, must become enlightened, or made capable of seeing and understanding the deep things of the Word. It is His will to illuminate the church with a full and complete knowledge of who He is and of what He is able to consummate in us, particularly in these last days. He will do a work in His Bride through the Spirit of wisdom, spiritual wisdom not the wisdom of this world. Also, through the Spirit of revelation, an enlightenment, an opening up of the understanding of things spiritual. Coming to a full and comprehensive knowledge of exactly who and what the Lord Jesus Christ is to the body of Christ. Eph. 1:17 Too many have but a shallow spiritual experience. They never study the Word of God. Have no interest in a study of any depth of the Word of the Lord. Having been saved for a number of years they are still babes in Christ. Without a true foundation. Living on <junk food> doled out to them by those who dispense that which is light and frivolous. We face serious times and it is past time to treat the things of the Lord very seriously and get down to business. It is time to seek the Lord.
A TWOFOLD ACCOMPLISHMENT. It is not that we shall be, but our rescue from the authorities of darkness is a finished achievement. We are no longer blinded by the darkness of sin and unrighteousness. We now walk in the light of His Word. Furthermore, we have been translated into the kingdom of the Son of God. Col. 1:13 The general consensus among Christians being that we look forward to what shall come, in the future, in heaven. The scripture however, is speaking of a current work of the Lord in His people. We need to take advantage of that which has been granted to us now. In a very real and practical sense the church stands in need of the demonstration of the power of the Lord, of His blessings and the manifestation of His life in His church.
