In the State I Ought to Be

To say I am the righteousness of God in Christ is in essence to say I am, Dikeiosane, meaning in the state I ought to be. Let me say it again. In the state I ought to be. Notice. This is intended to be a state of being, not a regiment of doing. The doing will always follow the being, whether we want it to or not.

The teleological will always follow the ontological. Being whole will produce a manifestation of whole behavior. But to insist by way of the religious spirit ruling the Western Church that people change their way of doing without appropriately teaching them the significance of their way of being is to lay once again the trap of trying to attain righteousness by way of self effort rather than liberating the sons of God to be glorious and operate in their superior identity.

This identity? Is one of the image bearers reflecting the radiance of the glory of Yeshua.
