One Thing 2/24/20 Holy and Blameless before Him

Hebrews 10:1-2 AMP
For since the Law has only a shadow [just a pale representation] of the good things to come—not the very image of those things—it can never, by offering the same sacrifices continually year after year, make perfect those who approach [its altars]. [2] For if it were otherwise, would not these sacrifices have stopped being offered? For the worshipers, having once [for all time] been cleansed, would no longer have a consciousness of sin. All

Ephesians 1:3-4 TPT
Every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a love gift from our wonderful heavenly Father, the Father of our Lord Jesus—all because he sees us wrapped into Christ. This is why we celebrate him with all our hearts! [4] And he chose us to be his very own, joining us to himself even before he laid the foundation of the universe! Because of his great love, he ordained us, so that we would be seen as holy in his eyes with an unstained innocence.

Colossians 1:21-22 NASB
And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, [22] yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach—

Jesus came not just to pay for our sins, but to set us free from Sin and its power. When mankind fell in the garden of Eden, Sin like an evil demonic virus entered into the natural world including mankind. This spiritual virus took up residence in our flesh (that which is merely human), and the chief characteristic of this evil spiritual virus called “The Law of Sin and Death,” is radical self-centeredness. Because the presence of God was removed from the heart of man, this evil virus dominated as master. The redemptive plan of God in Christ was to rescue us and the world from this evil virus so that we would not have to spend our lives with a sin consciousness, that lives in constant guilt, and assumes future failure. The sacrifice of Christ on the cross was not just payment for the sins we committed, but was Jesus sacrificing his body by including all the fallen humanity into his person, and then crucifying and burying the old man who was consumed, and controlled by the virus of Sin. In His resurrection a whole new creation, in union with his life would no longer be slaves to Sin. It is true that this virus still resides in the members of our body, but we are in union with the antivirus, which is the very life of the risen Lord.. As long as we abide in him, the law of the Spirit of life that is in Christ Jesus continually sets us free from the law of sin and death. Because we are in Christ, we now have His position before the father, for the father chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world, and being in Christ, the Father sees us with the love that he has for Jesus. He sees us in Christ, As holy and without blemish, and beyond reproach. Can we still sin? Yes, because the virus still lives in our unredeemed physical person, and sometimes we forget to abide in Jesus who is our supernatural antidote, but even when we fail, the father sees us in Christ holy and blameless, and he is always calling forth that new creation that we are, in union with his Son. Having pursued us throughout the ages to rescue us from the power of this evil virus, The father’s role in our life is not to point out our failures so that he can make us feel bad about them. He will show us, in his mercy when we do things wrong, but the point of showing us where we failed is not to make us feel condemned, but it is to be able to teach us how to stop allowing the virus to control us. He does not want us to walk around living with a sin consciousness, that always feels guilty about what we’ve done wrong, and consciously assumes were going to get it wrong again. He came to set us free from Sin, and the evil conscience that Sin produces.
