Da Jesus Code [Way, Truth, Life]

Living by the Jesus Code requires recognition that weare battling another re-ification of Gnosticism in thisage. Gnostics believe that all the secrets of God are inthe mind or appeared in an immaterial identity and thatpossession of knowledge was the only requirement forsalvation. The Gnostics also separate matter fromthought and did not attribute humanity to Jesus Christbecause they considered material things to be evil.They taught that he body of Christ appeared to be mate-rial but in reality it was spiritual. The Gnostics ignoredor diminished the significance of the ministry, deathand resurrection of Jesus as not being real but simply apparent.

It's easy to believe the Da Vinci Code and the Gospel ofJudas with its Gnostic influence. It doesn't require aleap of faith or an inherent desire to seek REAL ABSO-LUTE TRUTH. Let me suggest that it's harder to Believeand Live the Da Jesus Code for the following reasons:


[C]hrist-God – We need to believe that "in Christ"all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form(Colossians 2:9). Jesus was truly God in the flesh.
(John 1:14, Col 1:19)

[C]hrist-Centred - We need to recognise that TrueSpirituality is not achieved by our self-centredefforts to control one's passions, but setting one'sheart on Christ.
(Col 3:1-3)

[C]ancelled Written Code – We need to acknowl-edge our sinfulness. Our certificate of in-debtness in our own handwriting has been cancelled by God (Col 2:13-14). He has forgiven us and nailed it to the cross.

[C]onquered Evil – We live victorious lives. Christ hasconquered and disarmed evil powers and authori-ties. He has triumphed over evil. (Col 2:15)

[C]ircumcised Heart – We belong to God once wemake a covenant with Him that it is Him only weserve. We would consecrate ourselves, our children and allwe possessed. (Romans 2:25-29, Dt 30:6, Gen 17:10)

[C]ontrolled by Holy Spirit – We need to die to whatbinds us as we have been redeemed by the Lord sothat we can serve in the way of the Spirit. We are no longercondemned by the Law, we need to live by faith. (Romans2:29, 4:9-14).

[C]ross-Shaped Life – We must confess that Christ isGod (Luke 9:18-27), deny ourselves and take upour cross daily to follow Jesus. We must like Apostle Peter who denied Christ, denied self, confessed Christ, tasteddeath by being crucified upside down and saw the Kingdom of God. (John 21:18-19)

Living by the Da Jesus Code takes courage to die to oneself and let God take control. Until you offer your life to God, youcan't bring life to the Lost. To have the passion of Jesus toredeem the world, you need to die like Jesus. Without Jesusthere will be no Missions, without Your Death the Lost willDie. Are you ready to Live by the Da Jesus Code?

John 14:6 - Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truthand the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
