The salvation Jesus has brought us today is a perfect
salvation which delivers us from:
1. death of our souls
2. sin and thereby the works of the flesh
3. all kinds of sicknesses
If someone believes that he or she has received salvation in
Christ, they should be free from the works of the flesh and thereby all kinds
of sicknesses. This is the sign that can be seen outwardly in order to
ascertain that somebody has received perfect salvation in Christ. When we operate in the perfect salvation, there is no way
that we can get sick. Many would not believe this statement as they never experience this
continuous healing in their lives.
How to bring the perfect salvation into reality???
There are certain things we have to practice in order to benefit from this perfect salvation in our lives.
For
example, when we are in the perfect salvation in Christ, we ought not
to be
sick until the death of our mortal body. There are ways and means
revealed by the Lord through the Holy Spirit for us to stay healthy for
lifetime. Praise the Lord!
If you really practice them, it works... Yes, there are ways for us to
stay healthy in our physical
bodies in every day of life in this world.
Before we get directly to practice these ways, we
must understand the initial steps to be taken in order to receive salvation in
Christ.
At first, anyone who wants to receive salvation in Christ must enter
into the blood covenant with Christ.
Here are the steps to do this:
1. We must accept that we are sinners and Jesus Christ died
on the cross for our sins
2. We must accept Jesus Christ as our Personal Saviour for
forgiveness of our sins we have committed to-date.
3. We must invite Jesus Christ to come into our life and be
the Lord over everything in our life.
Now, I know that every one of us has made the above
declaration before Christ in our life. But many have missed a very
important point in the above declaration. Guess what?
Yes, it is the third point, which is very, very tricky. You
see here, we make an invitation to Christ to come into our hearts. But if
Christ does not accept our invitation to come into our hearts, the first two
declarations automatically become
invalid.
We can make an invitation to anybody, but at the same time,
we must make sure that this invitation has been accepted. In the same manner, after we invite
Christ, we must make sure that our invitation has been accepted by Him.
How
do we know that Jesus Christ has accepted our invitation?
Look at the below
scripture:
(John 14:15-17)
If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I
will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may
abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because
it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with
you, and shall be in you.
There is a condition for us to fulfill for Jesus Christ to
accept our invitation. According to the scriptures, the condition is keeping
His commandments. Now, anybody would say that they keep the commandments of
Christ. How do we know the true commandments of Christ?
Yes,
we must open our Bible and start to read it to know the true
commandments. Those who do not read the Bible have to make sure that
they keep the right commandments as the Bible itself warns us not to
trust MAN.
How do we make sure that we do keep His true commandments?
The answer is found in the same scripture above. If you truly
keep His commandments, Jesus has promised to send the Holy Spirit, Who live
with us and shall be in us. In other words, anyone who claims that he has
received salvation in Christ, must experience the Holy Spirit living with them
and living in them.
Without the Holy
Spirit, we never enjoy the real benefits of the perfect salvation in Christ. If
we want to make our salvation a reality, we must have the Holy Spirit with us
and in us.
How do we make use of the Holy Spirit to bring our salvation to reality???
