Taking Seven Steps of Imagination and Faith.


Taking Seven Steps

of Imagination and Faith.




Philippians 4.8. Finally,brethren,whatsoever is true,
whatsoever things are honest,whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely
,whatsoever things are of good report;if there be any virtue,
and if there be any praise, think on these things. 

               So I give you seven step. 

        Before I do this, 

the matter of New Birth must be addressed.

 I  must first admit to God

 that I am lost without him 

and needing forgiveness.  

Romans 3.23 tells us All have sinned 

and come short of the glory of God. 

         Again Romans 6.23 tells us The wages of sin is death,  

but the gift of God 

is eternal life 

through Jesus Christ our Lord.   

    So great is God's love 
that we not only are forgiven 
He sets us free to live as His sons
with all the inheritance rights
legally given us....

John 3.16
For God so loved the world
 that he gave his only begotten Son that
 whosoever believer in him should not perish, 
but have everlasting life.

 Ephesians 2.1 
 And you he hath quickened
 who were dead in trespasses and sins

 
In doing this, we become brand new creatures

John 3.3 Jesus tells Nicodemus, 
Verily verily I say unto thee,
ye must be born again. 

Note: in regard to "thee" and "thou"...
                           It is there for the reason that he
is saying you 
and you yourself
 must be born again.  
 You was not just you. 
"you"  referred to anyone.

 "Ye" indicated this was individually done. 

Just as we are born physically
 and celebrate our birth day 

we need a spiritual birth that happens 
only when by God's undeserving love 

He grants us the gift of life. 


 

And even when we do open that heart 

to believe we cannot get any credit.  

God is the one who keeps gently knocking

 and the Spirit of God from within 

helps us take that step 

from death 

to life,

from darkness to light,

from fear to faith.  

  He comes

 in at that moment

 and changes us.




    Each of us as one at a time 

we find His spirit living in us,

 and He gives us the assurance

 that I am his child ...no longer lost

 and alone 

but sure

 of peace with God .  

 Romans 5.1

 tells us being justified by faith

 we have peace with God

 through

our Lord Jesus Christ.  




THIS IS WHERE WE CAN BEGIN,

TAKING THE SEVEN STEPS

OF IMAGINATION

AND  FATIH...

We may start looking (1) The True. 

(2) The Beautiful. (3) The Good. 

(4) The Right. 

(6) The ways and means 

of putting these into our lives 

                               and  (7) The Methods to do it         

then as we use these in doing them

 day by day

 step by step

 our life character

is shaped and molded

which God wants in us.  

God is not only the starter of our faith,

He will guide us to be like Jesus

 and will stay with us

 till one Day we see Him face to face.  

 The Bible is our source

 of all we need for this.    



COME JOURNEY WITH ME 

    WALKING BY FAITH 
SAVED BY GRACE
LOOKING FOR CHRIST TO RETURN

    Hebrews 12.6 
LOOKING UNTO JESUS THE AUTHOR
AND FINISHER OF OUR FAITH,
WHO FOR THE JOY
SET BEFORE HIM
ENDURED THE CROSS,
DESPISING THE
SHAME,
AND IS SET
AT THE RIGHT HAND
OF THE THRONE OF GOD.
