When God looks in the Mirror
The Word of God is an amazing book. Only through its divine lens do we begin to see clearly. Without it, our view of reality is skewed by sin and clouded by the world around us. When God looks at His Church (His mirror)—He expects it to mirror back to Him—who He is!!
We are His Imago Dei. It’s Latin for the image of God, fashioned by God distinctly, in His own image and after His likeness. When God created man in His own image…He created him in authority, value, morality, creativity and love. His plan for humanity is more than a mere fleshly existence that ends in death. God’s purpose for humanity is to complete His creation of beings in His “image.” When that image is distorted, or is mutated, and mocks who we are, or does not reflect His glory—GOD WILL RESET IT!
God’s Word is that window, the reflection that sheds light on who God is. As we gaze through it we are given a vision of his holiness, and who He created us to be.
Remember the story of the Man of Steel-Superman, and His alter-ego, Bizarro Superman?? Bizarro Superman, is the perfectly opposite duplicate of Superman created when the Joker had reality-altering powers.
Bizarro was an imperfect, “mirror image" clone and supervillain of Superman; characterized by being bizarre, weird and always having unconventional approaches to doing things completely opposite everything that was good in the real Superman!
If you disconnect from the true life of Jesus Christ; you have decided to live a "mutated, bizzaro life. Become that, and you will wander around in this earth, without a purpose, without a vision, without life—until your physical body gets weaker and weaker, (because of the effects of this disconnection), and then it will pass away!!
God has created us in his "likeness" and "image." To disconnect from him (His life), is to "die." God is eternal and lives forever! He has restored us through the "new birth," to live the God-created life, long life, satisfied life, healthy life, prosperous life, God's creative life!
Our Heavenly Father has passed along to us, His own self-replicating “DNA,” as it were. Among other things, we've inherited the ability to know good from evil, to choose good or evil and act for ourselves, to recognize light and truth, to love, and to feel the Holy Spirit.
This self-replicating DNA of our father-God, has released in us, His agape-His faith, His word, His power, His authority, and wholeness!
Any change in His DNA is considered a "mutation." (variant-which can be inherited). A mutation is a variant subtype that is distinct from the original likeness--(such as one having a version of God that is not based on the truth of who God is. People infected with a religious variant, have been exposed to damaging errors and missteps, and can present symptoms similar to the real.
The attributes of God are goodness, mercy, love, long-suffering and patience, and his followers are to possess the same attributes of character representing Christ in true spirituality.
Biblical spirituality can be defined as the process of the divine restoration and healing of the broken relation between the triune God and humanity. As such, biblical spirituality is the response of a repentant human heart and mind to the loving heart and mind of God.
Although it can't be seen, counted, or measured, a spiritual inheritance is the most priceless gift you can pass on to your children and grandchildren. It's imparted over the course of a lifetime...
God’s DNA, is the new nature that you receive, from God when you got ‘born again’....Paul says we have an old nature...called the old man; and that we are to put off concerning the former old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; and then we are to put on the new man, i.e., a new nature (Eph:4:24), which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
When God adopts us into His family....He now lives in our DNA, in our blood, in our spirit. His blood “in” us, is what operates to do His work in our flesh.
We can now, do His miracles, signs, and wonders....As in human conception, when sperm unites with egg, His Spirit unites with our spirit to become one spirit.
Humans only become "children of God" when they become spiritually adopted, joint heirs with Jesus Christ—by repentance and grace, by faith, thereby inheriting the free gift of eternal “life.”
