YOU CAN BE ONE WITH GOD!
When Jesus quoted God from Genesis 2:24 saying “A MAN WILL
LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND UNITE WITH HIS
WIFE, AND THE TWO WILL BECOME ONE” [Mt 19:5 GN], no one
ever questions that the husband and wife are still two different people with
free wills to make different choices. The oneness of a married couple is not
automatic and for their marriage to thrive, they have to make an effort to
work together as one. Because of manmade doctrines that suggest Jesus is
lying when He said “I AM THE SON OF GOD” [Jn 10:36 KJ] and was
deceiving when He looked up and said, “I THANK YOU, FATHER,
THAT YOU LISTEN TO ME. I KNOW THAT YOU ALWAYS
LISTEN TO ME, BUT I SAY THIS FOR THE SAKE OF THE
PEOPLE HERE, SO THAT THEY WILL BELIEVE THAT YOU
SENT ME” [Jn 11:41-42 GN], many believe that Jesus is really God
pretending to be Jesus and when Jesus said, “I AND THE FATHER ARE
ONE” [Jn 10:30] consider it support for their manmade doctrine. Jesus and
God are one in the same way a married couple is one. Just like a married
couple has to work at their oneness, Jesus had to work at being one with
God for example when He was uncomfortable with the unpleasant ending
God wanted, Jesus wanted to know if there was another way but concluded
with “DO WHAT YOU WANT, NOT WHAT I WANT” [Mt 26:39 IC].
Unlike the oneness of a married couple where they both work together to
compromise and resolve concerns that effect oneness, to have oneness with
God we need to determine what God wants and then strive to do what God
wants. We need to follow the example of our role model, Jesus, and work at
being one with God and doing the things our “FATHER IN HEAVEN
WANTS” [Mt 7:21 IC] so we may have eternal life with both God and
Jesus in heaven. Do you want to do what God wants?Home, Basic, Subjects, Scriptures
