Weekly Pursuit – Week 4 of July
Verses:
Matt. 11:29 “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”
Excerpts:
[The followers of Christ] were discipled through Christ’s crucifixion to annul their human life for them to live the divine life. They were also discipled through Christ’s resurrection to know Him as God’s firstborn Son. As the firstborn Son of God, He is both divine and human. Christ had the human life and nature, but He lived the divine life and nature through the denying of His human life and nature. This was His divine and mystical living to disciple all His followers for three and a half years. They were also discipled to know Christ as the life-giving Spirit.
Christ’s resurrection was for the producing of the many sons of God as His multiplication and increase. If we open to the Spirit within us as we prayerfully consider this fellowship, we will be discipled. Only the discipled ones are the constituents of the vital groups. They have been discipled to be vital. A disciple is one who lives the divine life in his human life. The vitality of the ministry is due to a person’s living the divine life out of his human life. Then what he utters is divine out of a crucified human life. We need to deny our human life for the releasing of something divine. This is the main factor of our being vital.
