Calendar Restored?

I want to take an opportunity here to address more of the Scriptural restoration process. 

How do you view restoration?  Do you see it as non-consequential or as having only minor importance.  Is the restoration process disconcerting to you because it requires response?  Are you satisfied with a 'status quo' that you moved into during a time of revelation, and are now afraid to move on?  Have your previous crops of spiritual grapes turned to vinegar or fine wine?

As we look to our Messiah for the restoration of all things, we must not neglect the process of change He desires for us.  2 Corinthians 3:18 says "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."  In other words, when we observe His Glory (in restoration) we take on His glory.

What if I don't agree with what is being uncovered?  What if I have problems with those through whom the restoration is coming?

Well, my friends, it is time to make another choice.  You can choose to face the world each day without looking in the mirror before you leave the safety of your home.  Or, you can make sure that the image that is reflected back to you is seen in the faces of those with whom you fellowship.  Just because we see the same image, however does NOT necessarily mean that it is the image of Messiah!  I remind you of the pious images of the women's dress of the polygamist sect whose children were removed from them.  Just because they looked a certain way certainly did not guarantee the safety of the children entrusted to them.

Taking on the image of Messiah requires constant and continual (redundancy intended) change.  Yeshua required change when He came the first time...The same requirements are in place now!

 

Shalom
