Overwhelming of Mercy

Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

To All the Saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi 1:28-29; To All the Saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi 2:1

I mean, sometimes it is the time, sometimes it is the weather, sometimes it is our sin or our fault crept into the middle, and sometimes it is just what our God would have rathered. That is not to say though that there is some fault to be found in the Lord. Last time we would talk about how that sometimes our enemies so once do appear but now just as of Christ then in full. It is what happens when there is something other at stake than any of us know of so far. You see, Paul too had once known his salvation as one who would bring him from the uttermost into his service and so as on back home with him then. Then again, have not you heard of his story how that he had once been on the road to Damascus when he had met with his angel. It sounds fanciful to say such as the Lord would have put it, but was not there a loud voice in particular and the Lord that was there in the end. His eyes too had been blinded for the bright light that appeared, as though in darkness a light had now shined in his heart. I mean, it is the fulfillment of prophecy is not it, how good our God is to his children, his enemies, or anyone who would but put their trust then in him. Paul though had been on his way to persecute the church or to kill all them that had been named for the Lord. Perhaps as some had once said they were doing God a favor or two both now and back then. Though the only favor they were doing is just a calling on the name of the Lord and you already know he is not going to let that go unanswered now is he. In fact, it is a conflict if you will with what you already know to be true. Therefore, it so follows that some of the Christlike must extend his love and his favor to a world that is dying, whether dead wrong or just an enemy there in particular. It would follow then a story often told in the witness of Christ and his ministry that he came to the unworthy, the undeserving, them that had not, and even the least. The only other thing that follows then is to them that have done it to the least of these his children, as unto the Lord, they have done so even to him in their midst. That is why we feed the hungry, visit them that are in prison, bring water to the thirsty, clothe the naked, visit the fatherless and widow in their affliction, and keep ourselves unspotted from the world. It is so that at any time our God might come in. That is why anything that is done is always as unto him. We were meant to be a consolation of Christ, a comfort of love, and a fellowship of the Spirit and as bowels and mercies of God expressed then in particular. Yet we were not though just as mere pictures rather who would as all things do point the whole world on back to his Son. Indeed, it is all just to the praise of his glory though a seeing of Christ there in particular. He is our consolation, our comfort, and our fellowship too with his Son. He is also our judgement and our high priest able to absolve any from even the utmost of sin. Until next time then, lets just trust only in him and also do good to all men no matter where or whom they might have followed on after nor yet how far they have wandered as off into sin.
