Veiling with the Kardashians 😍😍😍 In an act of beautiful grace, the Kardashian sisters Kim and Kourtney, along with their 7 children were baptized into the Christian Faith on October 16th according to the Armenian Apostolic Tradition. 🙌🏼 ‘Praised be Jesus!’ I cant help but feel a little flicker 🔥 in my heart that this move of the Spirit just might be the start of something wonderful in the House of Kardashian. Known for their global influence on feminine beauty, just maybe this House of Women might transform itself into a House of Sacred Beauty where the flashy revealing clothes that glorify the womanly body give way to a line of modest veiling that glorifies the sacred heart of a woman clothed in grace who fiercely loves her family. 😍😍😍 #kkwVeils instead of just #kkwbeauty? With so much focus on the conversion of her husband @kanyewestt_official it is beautiful to see the strength of a woman who is responding to the call of Grace in such a mature and beautiful way, giving way to the traditions of her family and the heritage of her people, in her own right and timing. Kim’s support of her husband’s journey of faith has been admirable. Supporting his way of conversion while still maintaining confidence in her own, according to the call of the Holy Spirit. Each of us must answer that call personally and not the call of another. I’m looking forward to hearing more from these Kardashian women as they share the light of faith they will receive along their own journey and the beauty of raising faith-filled children! 🙏🏼 Praying the Kardashian Life will have an extreme makeover and those who like #keepingupwiththekardashians will see a little more of Jesus along their way. Baptism is just the beginning for the journey of Christian Faith. Let us join in the tradition of all the Church Fathers in welcoming these beautiful mamas and their babes into the family by continuing to pray for a deeper conversion into the life of faith in the revelation of Jesus Christ. #onebaptism #onefaith #oneLord @kimkardashian @kourtneykardash Welcome to the Family! ❤️💛💙 #WakingEve #WakingWoman #WakingBeauty https://www.instagram.com/p/B4xSMCLg252/?igshid=1t3dg13z0bvxc

#22 One Body

We’re finally circling back and picking up the next key doctrinal point in understanding the revelation of the mystery of Christ; A church body made up of both Jew and Gentile.

God pushed the pause button on Israel’s program.  This amazing, incredible, mysterious pause was to our glorious benefit!  This is the only time in human history where God sees both Jews and Gentiles exactly the same way.

This could only happen through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  The cross fulfilled the prophetic purpose for Israel and the mystery purpose for the Church making the twain – one!  Read Eph 2:11-20

11 Wherefore remember, that you being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12 That at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13 But now in Christ Jesus, you who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. 14 For he is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; 16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. 18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. 19 Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God; 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Let’s break it down. In the history of man there were two people groups: 1.  Jews...Israel...separated…God with them…circumcised… covenant promises… hope.   2.  Gentiles…all other nations…without God…uncircumcised…no promises…no hope.

But now (a time reference) the wall that separated the two groups has been torn down and as one body, by faith alone, through grace alone, we are at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. (Rom 5:1) This is a great mystery! (Eph 3:6).

The two have become one in a totally new, entirely different creation, (2 Cor 5:17)  Nothing from either group is carried over into this new creature, (Gal 6:15) old things, i.e. covenant, laws, promises, prophecy are gone.

Together we are of one spirit, baptized into one body, with many members, (1 Cor 12:13-14, 1 Cor 12:27).

Next we’ll explore what the purpose of this new body in Christ.

[theapostlesdoctrine]

29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.

30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.

31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. (1 Corinthians 14:29-33 KJV)

[theapostlesdoctrine]

There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭4:4-8‬ ‭KJVA‬‬

[theapostlesdoctrine]

There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicode´mus, a ruler of the Jews: the same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicode´mus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. John 3:1‭-‬5 KJVA
