THE ONE GOAL 2
"God spoke: "Let us make human beings in our image, make them
reflecting our nature..." Gen.1:26 MSG.
The being of God informs His doings and so He made man. God invariably said "Let us make a replica (image) of ourselves to live and behave like us; showing forth our character (likeness)". That exactly was what Jehovah got in Adam before the fall. When man fell, he acquired a distorted nature that makes his doings wrong no matter how good they may be.
Jehovah God came in Jesus to restore the original nature back into man. This was accomplished by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit of the Living God.
By the Spirit, we have the nature of God and the capacity to do all that God does. But to be able to do all that He does, the prerequisite is obedience to the indwelling Spirit. Therefore, the more we obey Him, the more we reflect Him nature birthed in us and the more we become/look like Him to the physical world.
Do you thirst and hunger after righteousness O comrade? Don't stop striving to become like Jesus, for this cause was grace supplied.
Shalom.
