Spiritual Maturity

Spiritual Maturity

It is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and that not of yourself, it is the gift of God.
(see Ephesians 2:8)

So walk in Jesus, in exactly the same way as you received Him.
(See Colossians 2:6)

You have been firmly rooted in Christ. He is the root, the vine, and you're a branch.
(see John 15:5)

Now you are being built up in Him and established in your faith.
(see Colossians 2:7)

So, you need not listen to the accuser when he tells you that your growth is anemic. You need not listen when that old snake says your faith is too weak. You can pay no mind to his assertions that you may be uprooted and fail to obtain your inheritance.

Your growth is not up to you. God's got you.
You never had much faith, but God took care of that too.

You are inseparably attached to the Root that can never die. More than attached, you're a part of that Root, and that Root is a part of you.
(see 1 Corinthians 6:17)

So certain is your inheritance that the earnest put down by Father to guarantee it is the Holy Spirit himself.
(see Ephesians 1:13-14)

So, Jesus finished all the work, now you can rest in that and live in freedom.
