Through Christ We Are Pure, Even As Jesus Is Pure

"Beloved, now we are the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be; but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. And every man that has this hope in him purifieth himself, even as He is pure." 1 John 3:2-3

Isn't the salvation we have in Christ wonderful! I mean look at how our Father sees us. We are the brides of Christ and we are sanctified, not by our works, no way, we could never make it! Through the power of Christ we are set apart for our Fathers Holy use, we are free from sin, because we have been purified by God Himself. It is our Father's desire for us to be this way, so that we can be glorious and without spot or wrinkle. God wants us this way so that we can be exactly like Him, here on this earth, so that He can use us to do greater works than He used Jesus to do, so that we can be His beautiful bride! (1 John 4:17 & John 14:12) A bride that has been empowered with the Holy Spirit to allow the glorious and freeing power of her Groom to be revealed in all of its glory through her. Take that satan, we have the mind of Christ and we know who we are, we know who our Father is, and we know what salvation is and what is has done for us. So satan get ye behind us in Jesus' Name! We now know the Truth that has set us free. We know that we are the sons of God and we know beyond any shadow of a doubt that through the power of Christ that we are pure, even as Jesus is pure! We have been given the very Spirit of God, and the Holy Spirit causes us to abound in the hope of this Truth and Jesus Authors and Finishes our faith in this Truth. And we now have all of God’s fullness dwelling within us that allows us to live in this Truth! No weapon that is formed against stealing this Truth will ever prosper against us, because greater is He that is fully in us, than he that is in the world!

Greater love has no man than to lay down his life for his friends. Jesus laid His life down for us and it meant something! God is Who He is in us this day. Jesus ever lives to make intercession for us so that we are saved to the uttermost and God always causes us to triumph in Christ.
