In this lesson we talk about Saints Becoming More Like Jesus. I want to help us all understand this very important principle in the Bible. How we become more Like Jesus. And How we are already saints. People usually think Saints are so much like Jesus that they never sin. But saints can grow and become more Like Jesus in the way they live. By Feeding their new creature-hood with the truths of what the Word says we are, and then learning to live as though these facts are true.
When we get saved we are placed into Jesus Christ. We are the branches and He is the vine. And we actually have everything we will ever need to not sin. However, we do not know that when we are first saved. These things are the sort of things that we have to learn about. But when you learn about the changes God made in your status with Him, you realize how different you are and you will then not expect to be defeated. But the truth is we are infants who need to grow
You are special because you are born again and it's all God's doing, not your own. Start living like these things are true. These are the types of things that cause you to be more confident when you know them. And believe it or not, this is the key to growing. Purifying yourself means you start to live according to what you now have as a hope because of what you are.
How does a Saint Become More Like Jesus? Simply believe you are righteous in Christ, and live like it is true.
