earthen vessels of our lives be broken to let the light of Christ shine forth. If there is
no breaking, there is no light.
Many saints go around boasting that they have eternal life, yet the life is never
released. Many are those who have received Christ as their life and light, but they
keep Him bottled up. If the grain of wheat does not die, it will not produce life. If the
vessels of our lives are not broken, no life will come forth. Yes, we have this treasure
in earthen vessels, but sadly it is rarely seen or released.
The majority of the saints are engaged in protecting their soul life. Rather than
allowing the life of Christ to be released through them, they keep it penned up, and
they offer to God sacrifices and works from their own soul. Many desperately seek
to retain their soul life, their will and their desires, being self-directed. As long as
they can retain their soul life they are willing to offer sacrifices to God, but Yahweh
does not want sacrifices. He desires obedience.
When Adam sinned in the Garden of Eden, death entered into all of mankind.
Romans 5:12
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and
death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned...
It does no good for man to offer actions and activities to God that originate with man.
To do so is to offer that which is dead unto God. God wants a living sacrifice. He
wants us to lay down our lives and allow the life within us, the life of His Son, to be
unveiled and released. Many are the scriptures that reveal that Yahshua is the
treasure that the saints possess. He is our life. He is our light. He is our truth. He is
everything to us.
John 6:35
Yahshua said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will
not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst.”
John 6:47-48
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. I am the
bread of life.”
John 8:12
Then Yahshua again spoke to them, saying, "I am the Light of the world;
he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light
of life."
