BLESSINGS FROM REVELATION KNOWLEDGE

My Dear Precious Child, Paul was very concerned about beliefs in asceticism that had crept into the doctrines of the believers in Colossae and also their tendency to worship angels as taught to them by believers from Jerusalem. Their deceptive beliefs that holiness was to be gained by observing rules of do not eat certain foods, do not drink certain fluids, do not enjoy comfort but instead make sure you suffer discomfort just like Jesus Christ did for you. The true revelations are that He suffered those restrictions and discomforts so that you do not have to in order to attain My blessings. His sacrifices bought you freedom from the curses of Mosaic laws which observed certain holy days in which discomforts were required. When you feel that you must be uncomfortable and suffer from chosen fastings and sacrifices, you negate Christ Jesus' death which purchased freedom for you from those laws. My Spirit wants you to be free from self made efforts at attaining holiness so that He can teach you and guide you into all truth from which comes all holiness.(Colossians 2:15; Colossians 2:20-23) In his letter to the Colossians Paul wrote that Jesus Christ was My true and complete image in your world, the firstborn of all creatures. Paul wrote that he, himself, had become a minister of the church through My personal commission of Him to preach among the Gentiles the fullness of the Good News in which is the mystery hidden from ages and generations past but which was revealed to My prophets of old. He knew that I had willed to make known to them the glory beyond price in which the mystery was brought to the Gentiles through Paul, himself, that mystery being Christ living in you, the hope of glory. He also wrote that he was writing about the same Christ which the apostles proclaimed when they taught about Him in full measures of wisdom, hoping to make every person complete in Christ, the full measure of the Godhead. Paul wanted the people in Colossae to realize that he had labored and struggled by the energy of My Holy Spirit which was such a powerful force in him.(Colossians 1: 24-29) He continued with his message about the struggles of him and the other apostles in their ministries. He wished the hearts of all believers to be united in love and full assurance of the mystery of God, that being Christ living in people and in Him being every treasure of wisdom and knowledge. (Colossians 2:1-3) Paul had never met the members of the Colossian church because he was in prison at the time. He addressed several subjects in his letter to them, one being the importance of their having the revelation ofChrist living inside of them and also he wrote a warning against false teachers, the same truth which was addressed in most of his letters to the churches in an effort to protect the people from being deceived and leave the purity of the Gospel. Your Father of All Truth
