Until Christ is Formed in You 4

Living the life Christ taught us to live

God's saints, who keep the commandments of God, should put what He taught them into practice. If Father and Mother live in us, we should put our whole heart and soul into saving mankind just like our Father and Mother who left Their splendid glory and came to this earth to save us.

Eph 4:17-32 『… You, however, did not come to know Christ that way. Surely you heard of him and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus. You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. … "In your anger do not sin": Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold. … Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. … Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.』
God told us to live a righteous and holy life, loving each other. He never taught us to indulge in dissipation, jealousy and complaint. We need to carefully examine ourselves and see if we are living the way Christ taught us. Without going through this process, no one can enter the kingdom of heaven.
Let us be kind and compassionate to one another. If Father and Mother live in our hearts, we will be indifferent to anger or jealousy and try our hardest to lead our brothers and sisters along the right path to salvation by putting God into their hearts, although we suffer the pain of childbirth, as did the Apostle Paul. When our hearts are moved by such meaningful work, each of us can be called a true Christian with the heart of Christ.
Father and Mother have sealed us with the promised Holy Spirit and made us children of promise, so that we may inherit the kingdom of heaven. As Isaac received Abraham's inheritance, so we are given the promise of God, being called "children of promise like Isaac" (Gal 4:28). What if we neglect God's word, easily become hot-tempered and greedy, thinking that we are going to heaven because we have received the promise of God? Can we enter heaven? Certainly not. God says that even a blessed person will be deprived of the blessing given to him if he becomes unworthy of it and will be judged according to His words.
