3 cardinal points for exploit in the kingdom
“For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.” (Hebrew chapter 2 verses 10)
- For it became Him:
For it became Him! What is the it?
If it became Him, that means the ‘it’ needs to be looked into for us to understand what the ‘it’ is all about. Until we understand the ‘it’ that became, we might not fully get virtue in the context. The ‘it’ can be personalised. It could mean something else, but whatever it stands for, it is of great value and worthy of God. Wow! Let us dig deep to actually find out what value the ‘it’ could be.
As we go through this journey to discover the mystery behind the ‘it’, it will be wise to understand the deity and the Spirit behind it. Since it is God’s word we are dealing with, that means the ‘it’ could be all about God. Why we are curious about the whole process is that the ‘it’ became Him. Do not forget that. For it became Him. You see, if it became Him that means in Him was found it. And since everything we are discussing so far is about God word, I can tell you the ‘it’ stands for the fullness of God Almighty.
Him! Of course that talks about our Lord and master Jesus Christ that is the author of the new testament. Now let us critically look at that statement again. For it became Him. Let me paraphrase it based on our discovery, ‘For the fullness of God became Him’. It simply means that God was actually seen in Jesus. Those who walked with Him came to a point in their life that they knew Jesus is God in the human form. That was an assurance that they lived with.
66 – “From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
67 – Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 – Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
69 – And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.” (John chapter 6 verses 66 to 69)
We have been able to established that the fullness of God was in Him.
- for whom are all things:
Apostle Paul went ahead to say for whom are all things. He was simply saying without any doubt or contradiction of words that in the fullness of God, everything is more than sufficient. Everything is in God. Once anyone has a proper alignment with God through accepting the finished work of Christ Jesus on the cross, that is the fullness of God that is at work in the life of the person and everything that makes life beautiful is there in.
No one can carry the fullness of God without carrying everything that makes God. Once an individual carries God, he or she carries the fullness of God. The fullness of God is God. Once you carry God, you carry all that pertains to life. If the fullness of God in Christ is the glory of Christ, then Christ in man is the glory of man. That is why Paul said,
“To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:” (Colossians chapter 1 verses 27)
- And by whom are all things:
“All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” (John chapter 1 verses 3)
Once an individual carries the fullness of God, it will spring. All things bright and beautiful, be it great or small are all wonderfully made. Great things spring out of us when we carry the fullness of God. There is God factor in every success equation.
“But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” (Mathew chapter 19 verses 26)
‘in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings’
In bringing many sons unto glory is very possible when we carry the fullness of God. It can’t be hidden. Once you carry God, you will be prompted for good work. That is why Jesus said in the book of Matthew chapter 5 verses 16.
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
In seeing your good works sons shall draw to the Father. People will want to be vessels for God’s glory. Apparently there is a price to pay for anyone who will like to have a genuine walk with God. Salvation is free but growing to become like Jesus is not free. That is the aspect of sufferings. Christianity will cost you to profit you. That is why it is necessary to undergo discipleship. Christianity will pain you to pay you.
Conclusion:
It could be impossible, but once you carry God there is an assurance of possibility in all ramifications.
