BLESSED BY REFLECTING GOD'S IMAGE

My Dear Precious Child, My children revel in saying that they are created in My image, the Creator. Yet, some of them reflect the image of the antichrist or the demons who are rulers of the world. Those people who profess My name are proud of saying that they are reflecting the image of their creator, but the god who created their hateful, vicious, angry personalities is far from their reflection of Me or Jesus Christ. (II Corinthians 5:17) They rule their families with an iron fist and elevate their male gender in authoritative ways, certainly not reflecting the image of Jesus Christ who said that He reflected My image in the world. Although earlier writings by Paul reflected His Jewish heritage of male over female, My Holy Spirit wrote through Paul in his later writings where he wrote his revelation that in Christ there are no males or females, Greeks or Jews, slaves or owners, but that you are all born again into one family, equal in importance in Jesus Christ. However, the pagans are also respective of genders, nationalities, the rich over the poor, and other differences, but for Gentiles in Christ Jesus there are no classifications which separate people into most respected and least repected. He and I are the great equalizers. (Galatians 3:28) If you will check Jewish and Greek literature you will find that respecting different classes of people is based on the heritage of the person, which is the history of their nations. It is fleshly programming that reaches back into their past heritage and again places one gender, nationality or financial position of one person over another in importance. Just like My characteristics are reflected in Christ Jesus, your characteristics must also reflect His characteristics of being the great equalizers, refusing to respect one person over another one in importance in My eyes. My Holy Spirit wrote through Paul again that when a congregation meets that there must not be class separation where the most important people are seated in the front and the least respected are seated in the back, just like in Jewish synogogues the priests were seated in the front seats of importance, the men were seated in the front of the outer court, the women and children were seated in the back of the outer court and the Gentiles were seated outside of the sanctuary in the Court of the Gentiles. Some of My churches which are called by My name still observe that tradition, separating people into greatest and least in importance. That practice is totally opposed to My teaching about My kingdom of God, that there is no class differentiation. Peter wrote to the churches that they had previously escaped the pollution of the world through knowing the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, but they became again entangled in the practices of their past, the latter end being worse than the beginning. (I Corinthians 5:16:17) My Spirit put it more clearly through the apostle Peter, warning you not to return to old fleshly religious or pagan practices because that is like dogs returning to their own vomit. (II Peter 2:20-22) Peter is known for speaking in descriptive human terms in order to explain his points. That description does give you a clear picture of returning to old fleshly practices and denying your new thoughts, attitudes, speech, actions and virtues that you inherited from Me and which are perfected by the person of the Holy Spirit who creates the image of Jesus Christ in your flesh. That is when My word becomes flesh in you by your reflecting My and Jesus Christ's image in the world. Your Father of New Creations
