A true Christian life is about Jesus; the messiah God promised. The preacher to often teaches a systematic religion. Understanding the living word keeps us from being deceived by false teachers. The church lives by the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead.

Our inheritance in the presence of God: lessons from Peter
[[1Pe 1:4]] KJV To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
[[Gen 15:1]] KJV After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
[[Joh 10:10]] KJV The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
[[Joh 17:3]] KJV And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
God is our inheritance...at present we have the earnest of that inheritance...Gods life in us through the Holy Spirit...but when the corruption of our current flesh puts on incorruption we shall experience a complete oneness with God.
The scripture tells us no man has been in the personal presence of God...why... because our God is a consuming fire... as pictured in the burning bush this fire consumes all that is not living... when men experience the resurrection they will stand in the presence of God...for those who have his life within them this fire will burn away every shadow leaving only his pure life...for them this is bliss.... for those who only have self life... that same fire will completely consumed them...so while we still have time let us witness and share with every man the life he has given...be blessed.
