JESUS CHRIST:
     Our Foundation

     FILL ALL IN ALL

 

We continue looking at Paul's prayer for us. It is the Father's will we
know exactly and precisely, with an influence on us, the fulness we
have in Christ, which fills all in all.

 

Ephesians 1:23

Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth
all [every, the whole, whosoever ] in all [ every,
the whole, whatsoever]

 

Jesus Christ is the head over all things in the church.
This church is the one body of Christ, which is complete
in Him. Jesus fulfilled all the works of the law so that
we may be made the righteousness of God in Him. We
cannot add or subtract from anything Christ accomplished.
As it is written, "It is finished."

 

Fulness = repletion or completion, i.e. (subjectively) what fills (as contents, supplement,
copiousness, multitude), or (objectively) what is filled (as container, performance, period):
--which is put in to fill up, piece that filled up, fulfilling, full, fulness.

 

What fills the one body of Christ? Born again men, women
and children fill the body of Christ. With what are these
born again people filled up? We are all filled with holy
spirit, with the potential power of God, in the gift of
Christ inside each one of us. The question is not whether
we are filled. The question is whether we manifest this
fulness outwardly, in demonstration of the spiritual power
we have been given in Christ.

 

Filleth= to make replete, i.e. (literally) to cram (a net), level up (a hollow), or (figuratively)
to furnish (or imbue, diffuse, influence), satisfy, execute (an office), finish (a period or task),
verify (or coincide with a prediction), etc.:--accomplish, X after, (be) complete, end, expire,
fill (up), fulfil, (be, make) full (come), fully preach, perfect, supply.

 

The one Body of Christ is the fulness of Him that fills all in all.
We have holy spirit. We are crammed full of it.(If any one tells
you that you are full of it, don't get insulted. You are full of it.
Full of holy spirit! )

Will we fulfill what we have been given? We are furnished
thoroughly for all good works. We have the potential power
residing in each one of us, filling us all up. We have the
Scriptures that teach us what we have and how to use it.
Will we walk in the spiritual power we have? His fulness
fills all of us in whatsoever, in everything. No matter
what, we each have what it takes. Let's prove it. Amen.
