Above all things, get knowledge.

Many people are searching for truth; or enlightenment. They go about it searching after the material world. Some endeavor to search world religions, and philosophy. But all man's labor is vain. Jesus said, I am The Way, The Truth and The Life.
Thats so simple, yet so deep. Christianity is the only religion where God came searching for man. Yet, most christians don't really live 'life in abundance.' Its sad. I'm not here to debate philosophy or anything of that sort. I'm just attempting to express what I have experienced. And I'm not even claiming to have 'arrived', if there is such a thing. I have found 'the Truth' that Jesus spoke about. And it changed my life. I no longer live by bread alone. I live by the word of God. The word of God is active and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. It produces what the word says.

The word of God concerning me is settled already in heaven. And as Jesus is right now, so am I in this world. (1 John 4:17) Jesus Christ is the Living Word of God. He is the word made flesh. In Him dwells all fullness of the Godhead bodily. And of His fullness i have received. That knowledge is so great, it changes lives. It changed my life. The word of God, lives in me. Jesus Christ lives in me. He said I will be with you till the ends of time. The Holy Spirit lives in me. That means God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit made their dwelling with me, in my spirit.
That makes me one spirit with God.(1 Cor 6:17) And if one spirit, then I'm a partaker of the divine nature.(2 Peter 1:4)
And if I partake in the divine nature, then I can speak things that are not as though they were; and it shall be so. Because, my sufficiency is not of me; Christ is my sufficiency.(2 Cor 3:5) And Christ has sent me; and of course, he whom God sents speaks the words of God.(John 3:34)

The Holy Spirit that dwells in me, has shed the love of God in my heart. And it is love that makes my faith works.(Galatians 5:6)
Because God is love, he gave of Himself to us. And now that I am filled with the love of God, I can't help but love others.
So faith comes by hearing; and hearing of the word of God. The word of God that is received produces faith. Faith is based on knowledge. Faith is not blind. If you base your faith in the word of God, faith becomes the substance; or the proof; the evidence of things not seen. While I can't see the things of the spirit with my natural eye, faith lays a hold of it, and the mouth starts declaring it.(1 Timothy 6:12)

The knowledge of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, is the kind of knowledge that will change your life; for it will bring the fullness of God in you. So, above all things, get the knowledge of the word of God!
