The Son

Who is the Son?  What does He want?

He was Jesus, God himself, who became a curse for us and removed the conflicts (confusion) within these gifts in order that we would know the truth and be set free from the knowledge (personal experience) of misusing these gifts in our relations with God, Satan, Man, Woman, and the Earth. 

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”  Galatians 3:13   (Paul expresses that

Jesus, through his life, death, and resurrection, delivered man from the control of Satan.  Jesus taught man in word and deed, his righteousness, love and the truth.  Jesus also gave man the power to walk in righteousness, love and the truth through the presence of his promised Holy Spirit.  Because of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection, he gave man promises in order that man could use faith and hope to experience the gifts of eternal life, authority, resources, and intimacy without the conflicts, that is the knowledge and ability to properly use these gifts as they were created to be use by man for his good and pleasure, and ultimately for God’s good and pleasure.

Jesus gave us the gifts of life through his promises:

“His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.  Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.”  2 Peter 1:3-4   (Peter expresses that ]

“For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves,”  Colossians 1:13   (Paul expresses that

 

My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.”  John 17:15  (Jesus expresses that

 

Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit and his power:

“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you for ever--” John 14:16  (Jesus expresses that

 

“But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.  John 14:26   (Jesus expresses that

 

“But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth.”  John 16:13    (Jesus expresses that

You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature (understanding of evil)  but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you.  Romans 8:9   (Paul expresses that

 

Jesus gave us these gifts through his righteousness:

For if, by the trespass of the one man (Adam), death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ. Romans 5:17  (Paul expresses that
