HCBS: 2 Corinthians 3:18 We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit.
We are beholding our reflection in Christ and the more we behold ourselves in Him the more we are transforming from one degree of glory to another degree of glory.
Transformed in the Greek according to Greek Scholar Kenneth Wuest is the word metamorphoomai. Transformed – the act of a person changing his outward expression to one that comes from within and is representative of his spirit or the new creation.
Every day believers are struggling to experience the healing, deliverance and provision that Jesus provided. One would think that by observing the Body of Christ nowadays that Jesus endured all that He did so that He might help believers just survive each day and hold out until He returns.
My brother and sister in Christ that is not the case at all, He endured all that He did so you would experience life abundant, and so that you could and would live according to the pattern He lived when He walked the earth.
The Body of Christ is the most powerful entity on the earth today, but on a whole they are living far beneath the privilege and provision. Why? Because they do not know who they are in Christ and who He is in them.
Many still think much as they did before coming to Christ. They are according to Paul conformed to this world instead of being transformed by renewing their minds.
