For as many as are the promises of God, they all find their Yes [answer] in Him [Christ]. For this reason we also utter the Amen (so be it) to God through Him [in His Person and by His agency] to the glory of God. 2 Corinthians 1:20
All of our Father’s answers are yes through Christ. So what does that mean for us?
Because of Jesus we are promised to love as Jesus loves, John 17:26.
We are promised to have perfect love and be as Jesus is, 1 John 4:17.
We are promised to be used to serve as Jesus serves, John 14:12.
We are promised to think like Jesus, 1 Corinthians 2:16.
We are promised to be sanctified as Jesus is sanctified, Hebrews 2:11.
We are promised to have the exact same knowledge as Jesus has, John 14:26.
We are promised to have the very same faith that Jesus has, Hebrews 12:2.
We are promised to be glorified to minister as Jesus is glorified to minister, John 17:22.
Our Father wants us to be great. So to insure that we are, He has made us one with Jesus. Everything that Jesus is, everything that our Father has given to Him, has now been given to us, we are now one with it all. We are flesh of Jesus' flesh and bone of His bone. As Jesus is, so are we, even while we are in this world. In Christ our Father will cause each and every one of us to be great.
