Pastor-Teacher
John Farley Thursday, April 26, 2012 Spiritual Gifts Part 258: The Rewards EMBODY Service. God is at work producing mature sons who can step in and take on the amazing calling and destiny He has waiting for those who love Him.
To love the Lord means two things: These differences are spoken of in the Bible in terms of rank, rulership, reward, recognition, privilege, and intimacy.
3. Reward: Rewards are associated with work and faithful service.
Joh 6:63 For the church age believer, part of the inheritance is a birthright (child), and part of the inheritance is in the category of reward (mature son).
The inheritance of the Church Age believer has two compartments: Inheritance Chest
Heirs of God by birth – by means of the new birth – regeneration. Inheritance Chest
The inheritance of the believer has two sides.
The little sapling has the same NATURE as the mighty oak.
2Co 5:17
The resurrection body is related to Christ’s NATURE. Inheritance Chest
The WORK of Christ-His SERVICE - is to minister God to the creation; Just as Christ is the fullness of the Father and explains Him… The Church is to be the fullness of Christ and, by the work of the Holy Spirit, to explain Christ to the world and the angels.
