I AM The Resurrection and The Life V - I AM The Life
Saturday Apr 27, 2024
Saturday Apr 27, 2024
Jesus not only declared Himself to be The Resurrection, but He declared Himself to be The Resurrection and The Life. Simply put, when He raises us from the dead, we come to The Life. His Life becomes our life. He says in John we live because He lives. This is tremendous in understanding our relationship with the Lord. We are in His Life. This Life is made to us what He is. Now that we have been raised from the dead, the life of the dead has no hold on us. We are raised up to know the life of Christ Jesus our Lord. This fills our soul in His goodness. Through this life living in us we can say now we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. We could say, now we are filled with the wisdom and understanding of God. Now we are filled with that of Christ who has no sin. We can go on and on. Glory to God.

I AM The Resurrection - Jesus is the Resurrection of the Dead

When we think of Resurrection, we must consider the dead. Is the dead simply dead physical bodies in the mind of God? I don't believe so. I would say to be dead would be absence of life. The same would apply to darkness. Darkness would be the absence of light. Paul writes in I Corinthians 15 that all died in Adam, and all shall be made alive in Christ.
1Corinthians 15:22 "For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive."
Now the question is, when Jesus enters our hearts are we raised up by Him into life, or are we waiting to some day be raised? I believe He Himself answered this with Martha, when He said I AM The Resurrection and the life. When Christ comes into us, He then begins to made unto us Who He is. Se we, in turn receive of Him, and by Him are raised from the dead.
Now being raised, what is it but that we should know The Life. Again Jesus Christ is THE LIFE that we know out from the dead. We knew Adam, we are learning Christ. In the simplicity of this statement we were unrighteous, now we are made righteous. This is being in the Life of Christ. Glory to God.

I AM The Resurrection and The Life III - Removing the Grave Clothes
Saturday Apr 13, 2024
Saturday Apr 13, 2024
Jesus put off HIs clothes in the tomb. They found His linen clothing in the tomb. Why did He do it? He put off His grave clothes. Lazarus, when he came out of the tomb also put off his grave clothes. Jesus said, "loose him and let him go." This is speaking of us in Christ.
We put off through His resurrection the clothing of the dead. We were clothed with that in Adam and put it off, and are clothed of that in Christ. Glory to God.
John 20:5 And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in. :6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, 7 And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself. 8 Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.

I AM The Resurrection - The Voice of the Son of God

John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. 25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
The dead shall hear and they that hear shall live. This sounds like a resurrection! The Apostle Paul tells the believer that they have been raised with Christ in Ephesians 2 and Colossians 3, and many other places in the scripture. The Apostle John says we have passed from death to life. The Apostle Peter says we are born again through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
Through the Power of His Resurrection all that hear and believe come to life. Let us hear His Voice. Glory to God.

The Inheritance Part 11 - The Law of the Spirit of Life II
Saturday Mar 16, 2024
Saturday Mar 16, 2024
Rom 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Would the law of the Spirit of Life be so simple that Christ is our Life? Would that be the law? Would it be, he that believes on Him has this eternal life? Jesus condemned sin in the flesh. His flesh became the judgement of sin, and this judgement is unto death. He put sin in the flesh to death that we would live unto God in Him. This I believe is the law of life. This I believe is walking after the Spirit. We are walking after Christ who is our life. Glory to God in the Highest!

The Inheritance Part 10 - The Law of Life
Saturday Mar 09, 2024
Saturday Mar 09, 2024
In the Book of Romans one of the most important statements is made for the believer, when we are able to comprehend it. "Rom 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."
"The Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death." What a statement! How did this happen? To answer the question of how, let's look at Jesus. Jesus was made a man in the flesh, and he died as a man in the flesh. This is the how. In His death he condemned, or judged sin in the flesh as dead, and He buried it. The word condemned in the King James means to judge against or sentence.
The cross of Christ was the sentence to sin in the flesh. When he died, we died with him to the verdict of sin. Now when He arose, he arose unto the life of God. When we receive Him, we in like manner receive new life in Christ from God. Our new life is out from the death of Adam, or the nature of sin. Our new life is Christ in us. I believe we could say, the law of life or Christ in us, has made us free from sin and death. He has now become our Life. Glory to God!

The Inheritance Part 9 - The Law our Schoolmaster
Saturday Mar 02, 2024
Saturday Mar 02, 2024
The Apostle Paul tells us that the law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ. The ultimate purpose of the law was that we would come to Him. He is the fulfillment of all things written in the law. He spoke of Him. When we in frustration try to perform the law for our righteousness we come to dismay as the only one who could ever perform it was he whom it was written of who is Christ.
Life In Christ Jesus
I am Wayne Shelton the Pastor of New Life Tabernacle, a gathering of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ located in Culpeper, VA. I have been in Ministry for over 20 years and declare the Revelation of Jesus Christ to the Body of Christ. The aim and purpose of Ministry is to edify the Body of Christ, that the believer may grow in the knowledge of the Lord and come to the full stature of the Son of God as declared in Ephesians Chapter 3. The heart of this Ministry is that the believer may come to an inward knowing of the Lord Jesus Christ. Not simply that Christ is my heart, which is a part of the knowing, but the full measure of what He is within us, which operates to conform us and transform us into His very nature and character by the Word of God and the working of the Spirit of the Lord.
Colossians 2:9&10 "9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:"
Colossians 2 is a very powerful scripture, declaring the believer’s completion in the Lord Jesus Christ. However, many believers do not feel complete, or understand the work the Lord did on the cross. From Sunday to Sunday many believers struggle, not understanding the depth and degree of the work of the cross. It is our aim to bring you into this fellowship of God’s dear Son and His Work that He completed on the cross. Paul declared "That I might know Him, and the power of His Resurrection." His desire was that believers' hearts would turn from world, including religion to a heart that would cry, “I might know Him!” With this turning, there is an assurance that the Lord will give us the desires of the heart. So, understanding that He becomes our desire, the Lord Jesus will fill us with Himself with the very essence and nature of Him that we may know the greatness of our salvation in Jesus Christ our Lord, and declare it in the earth.
May the Lord Jesus be declared and manifested in His Body, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ
