APOSTOLIC REFORMATION – Son & Daughters arise.

by IAN JOHNSON ianjohn@xtra.co.nz

God is not restricted by His word; but He is restricted by His own Character and nature. He will not deviate from this character. So to interoperate His word correctly we need to know His Character – Intimacy and abandonment through Jesus by the Holy Spirit and towards the father is the only way we will ever know Him. If we know Him only through His word He will only ever be seen by us as distant, unseen and not as Daddy. To become Sons we yield to the Spirit of truth; for those who are led by the spirit of God are Sons and not slaves. Slaves have no options and can ask no questions; but Sons can reason and ask questions in order to know the Fathers heart on a matter.
This is the season for Sons to arise and put on the Character & nature of the one who has called us into His family by adoption. We do this through intimacy and co-operation with the Spirit of truth; not by a set of rules or by our own interpretation of Gods word which we call doctrine.

Apostolic Christianity is driven by encounters and revelations from the Spirit of truth; Apostolic draws us into Sonship; trains us to draw others and releases the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven, so that all His Sons & Daughters not just a select few exercise the character & nature of God through intimacy with Him.. Apostolic releases the government of God; which is not to keep Sons & daughters in bondage but to see (all) individuals exercise governmental authority to the world which releases the will and good pleasure of the Father on Earth. Thus fulfilling the scripture in Daniel – “Those that know their God shall be strong and do exploits for Him”. Which brings us back to; God is not restricted by His word but by His character and nature. His word reflects His character but the word is not His Character. Currently the Church is driven by the council of men based on their interpretation of His word (doctrine) restricting governmental authority to a select few. Its time for reformation that releases Sons & daughters into the supernatural power of God and not the current model which restricts and gives power to a select few building the Kingdom of men and not the Kingdom of God..

The Apostolic reformation of the body of Christ is based on encounters with the Character of God by virtue of Sonship and inheritance of our Fathers nature through covenant. This and not the council of men usher in the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.

Why are there no comments on this? It is good stuff!! I personally would take it further though...say it like it is....there are people claiming the tag "apostle" but who haven't been sent into the heavens to bring back the goods and share them! Anyway, God will sort that out! Thank you Ian for this writing.
