The Dispensations of Grace and The Holy Spirit/Rashea@LLO2 Academy
Walking in the nature of Jesus requires maturity, compassion, devotion, strength and endurance. Walking in the nature of Jesus is to love all people. The Bible says, "As a Christian, what good is it to love those that are just like you? Even the unbelievers do that." People will know that we are Christian's not just by the love that we show for other Christian's but, also, the unbelievers around us.
It is not God's will that we isolate ourselves from encountering unbelievers in the world. It is God's will that we be set apart (regenerated, sanctified) in all areas of our lives and be a light to those in the world who are unbelievers. There are moments where solitude (pulling away to rest and recuperate) is essential in order to be impactful, intentional and productive in our day to day lives. However, being shut off, isolated and fearful to interact with non Christian's was never God's will according to the Bible.
I will say this... there are limitations we must set for ourselves when interacting with people, places and things. Some doors should never be opened. Once you open them, they are sometimes difficult to keep close. Healthy boundaries are wise and advised when encountering people, places and things on any level. If it feels wrong or you sense that gut feeling... don't do it.👍🏾💯
There are healthy ways to interact with believers and unbelievers. Everyone needs encouragement from time to time. Seek God for ways to be effective and efficient without going too far left or being super religious.👀🤦♀️ Lord have mercy.
Jesus was always encountering unbelievers, even in the church and the Jewish faith. Let that sink in. There are church goers and participants in the church, who grew up in the church, who know all the church protocols and language but are not born again Christian's.👀 Let that sink in.
Yelp. I've seen it all my life, unfortunately. Here's the truth... going to church and growing up in the church will not get you into heaven, y'all.
Jesus was not afraid of unbelievers. He came to SAVE unbelievers. Although the Jews were God's chosen people through the covenant God made with Abraham who acknowledged the Mosaic Law, they were not all born again Christian's.
The sacred practices of Judaism was only required to be a tutor under the Old Covenant up until the time of Jesus. Once Jesus atoned for our sins on the cross, the dispensations of grace and the Holy Spirit were established under the New Covenant. The Old Covenant under the Mosaic Law was for one people, the Jews, but the New Covenant under grace through Jesus is for ALL people both Jews and Gentiles (Galatians 3:11-29; Hebrews 8-10).
John1:1, 14-17, 17:16; Romans 3, 5:2; Galatians 3:13, 14, 25-28.
John 14:16-27, 16:13-16; Acts 1:8; 2:1-4, Romans 8:1-16, 26 & 27, 1Corinthians 12:1-11; Galatians 5:16-18, 22-25; Ephesians 1:13 & 14, 6:17.
The dispensations of grace and the Holy Spirit are divine laws and a divine government of dimensional Law and Order and Kingdom dynamics that manifest signs, miracles and wonders from God and the origin of God in us who are born again Christian's. The dispensations of grace and the Holy Spirit are inclusive whereby the dispensation of the Law of Moses was exclusive. The dispensations of grace and the Holy Spirit are for Jews and Gentiles, males and females of all races. The dispensations of grace and the Holy Spirit interconnects all Christian's who openly believe and confess that Jesus is their Lord and Savior, who daily practice a regenerated life, through God's Word and the Holy Spirit.
