Faith is full of power

Brothers and sisters in Christ, You're not being hoodwinked.
You may be being hood washed.

Here is a song I wrote about the Washing of the Water in the Word.

The Washing of the Water in the Word from Ephesians five
Sing along!

there is Blood in the Water
there is Water turned to Wine
there are thorns around my innards
but there are Christians on the Vine

I think "Faith is full of power" would be a good topic and phenomenon to consider in a non-denominational and even non-religious sense.

@Kevin-Eleven


I mean that faith is full of power because God is FAITHFUL.

My New Testament says something I would never think to ask of God - eternal life. That is something I don't think I could conceive of even asking for. I cannot even imagine eternal life.

God wanting me FOREVER ?? That is a unimaginable amount of love. Don't you think?

"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23)

I have received strenuous opposition to showing the Triune God wants to conform the saved to the image of Christ. Or I have been strongly opposed for showing the dispensing of God's communicable attributes into man.

But I can see God wanting forever Christ.
It is somehow Christ wrought into, worked into, imparted into man that man is blended with this beloved One that is His eternal purpose.

In that way I can see [b}"the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." [/b]

So to be born again is to embark on this transformation.
What do you think Paul meant by "grow up into Him in all things" ?

"But holding to truth in love, we may grow up into Him in all things, who is the Head, Christ . . ." (Eph. 4:15)

It's just words. People are easily swayed, misled, and controlled by words.

Surely this is a huge generalisation and therefore a gross misrepresentation of the human race Kevin Eleven?

@kevin-eleven said
One does tend to paint in broad strokes when one has the overview, as I do.

@divegeester said
In this case “Painting in broad strokes” is merely a metaphor, a synonym for “generalisation” isn’t it?
