[That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]! Ephesians 3:19
And you are in Him, made full and having come to fullness of life [in Christ you too are filled with the Godhead Father, Son and Holy Spirit—and reach full spiritual stature]. And He is the Head of all rule and authority [of every angelic principality and power]. Colossians 2:10
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished: 2 Peter 2:9
Faith is the evidence of the things that we hope for, Hebrews 11:1. So ask yourself this question: do you hope for all of the things that we have studied in these postings about the power of Jesus to be realized within our lives? Do you have the lively hope that because Jesus is your Lord, that there is absolutely no temptation that can sway you and that through the power of Christ there is no evil that can overcome you? Do you have the hope that through Christ you are saved to the uttermost and delivered from every temptation?

When we talk about things like perfection and sanctification, are you offended by the thought that we are, or do you hope that they can be lived and experienced by all who are in Christ? Do you have the hope that each and every second of every day that Jesus is actually living to intercede for us, in every area of our lives, for the small and mundane and for the massive and life changing? Do you hope that we are sealed with Holy Spirit and that nothing can penetrate that shield?
If you are saved, you have the lively hope of the Holy Spirit dwelling within you. If you are saved, faith will come because of His hope and as you hear these Truths of our Father, your faith will grow and mature, because Jesus is the One Authoring and Finishing your faith and such hope will never disappoint or shame you!

And hope maketh not ashamed; because the Love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which is given unto us. Romans 5:5
Jesus will absolutely make us know Who He is and what He is. We will all come to have His peace. He is that good at what He does.
