The King's Ambassadors

Signs and wonders in Jesus' name.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

John 14:12.

And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people;

Hebrews 2:4.

Now that I am Born again of the Spirit, and have the mind of Christ, what do i do?

Now that you are "born again" of the Spirit, the Word and the Holy Ghost dwell in you. The will of God the Father is your purpose and commission.

But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. James 1:22.

All of us are tasked to learn of Him, Jesus-the Word, with the guidance of the Holy Ghost who teaches us all things and reminds us of what Jesus said as we live our lives on earth doing the Father's will.

The spirit (will/truth) of the Father is the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost=the Spirit of Truth= another Comforter, see below.

If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. John 14:15-17.

The commandments of Jesus are:

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Matthew 22:37-39.

Please note, the underlined phrase (above verse) means the entire Old Testament is summarized with the two commandments of Jesus.

On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Matthew 22:40.

This fact is another reason why we study and live in the New Testament under the New Covenant from Jesus.

Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. John 16:7.
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: John 15:26.
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. John 16:13.
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:26.

How do we know what is the will of God?

We ask Him! He is our Father!

When He tells you, you should want to do it even if your flesh grumbles. We do not ask expecting Him to tell us what we already want to do. Otherwise, we are god, and what do we need Him for? Yikes, imagine all of us as gods making decisions everybody else must accept. The devil likes that chaos. You are not of that spirit.

We come to know the will of the Father as we communicate directly with Him.

Jesus made it all possible, but the corporate church we call religion today has been hiding, or oblivious to, this fact from the early days.

If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. John 7:17.
For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother. Matthew 12:50.
For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother. Mark 3:35.

Did Jesus actually say we would do the works He did?

Yes, He said it.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. John 14:12.

What does it include? EVERYTHING He did and more, as the Father wills. He wants us to bear much fruit.

Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. John 14:17.
At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. John 14:20.
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. John 14:23.

We shall do the works and miracles of Jesus and more!

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

John 14:12.

Can the children of God do the works and miracles Jesus did?

Yes, according to the same terms Jesus had, i.e., as the Father wills!

For the born again, the Holy Ghost from the Father is also our helper, now, in this lifetime on earth. The Father reveals Himself to us according to His will by the Word and through the leading of the Holy Ghost.

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:26.
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: John 15:26.
Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. John 14:17.

Remember, the Holy Ghost (Spirit of Truth) raised Jesus from the dead because He (the Holy Ghost) is the witness to the Word that lived in Jesus and now in us. He will raise us (the born again) from the dead when our mortal bodies die.

Before our bodily death, the Spirit of Truth quickens our mortal bodies, helping us to avoid sin as we live by the will of God and the faith of Jesus as we do the works He did.

But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. Romans 8:11.
But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. 1 John 2:27.

Disciples are the ambassadors of Jesus now in this lifetime.

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. 2 Corinthians 5:20.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. John 14:12.

Fake Christians do not love the truth and shall perish like the rest of the unsaved.

And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 2 Thessalonians 2:10.

(When the rapture occurs, only the born again will be taken out of this world.)

The mind of Christ and the armor of God.

the armor of God is from God.

Battlefield armor has always served two purposes. Armor is a covering and a weapon. Think of a boot. It covers our tender feet and it can be used to crush a scorpion or the head of a serpent beneath it. It gives our feet a form of resistance and power at the same time. But note, for most people (with two feet), only one boot is considered incomplete. The whole armor of God is like that. Each piece protects us from the weakness it covers and serves as a force to be reckoned with; all pieces collectively complete the mighty warrior having the mind of Christ.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:16.

The mind of Christ instructs us to be the best soldier. strong in the Lord and the power of His might as we spread the gospel of His grace, salvation.

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. 2 Timothy 2:2-3.

Jesus NEVER entangled Himself in the affairs of this life.

In the context of the armor of God, we must take on all of it; otherwise, we allow for vulnerabilities of our flesh and a weakness in battle. The armor of God coupled with the mind of Christ in us lets us do the will of the Father in heaven victoriously every time by the leading of the Holy Ghost.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:...Ephesians 6:13-17.

We are the well-armored ambassadors of Christ, and for Christ.

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. 2 Corinthians 5:20.

("Reconciled" means brought into friendship from a state of disagreement or enmity; made consistent; adjusted; justified.)

We are the soldiers of Jesus Christ.

As the ambassadors/soldiers of Jesus Christ, we are reconciled to God the Father; we must always be about His purpose, not ours. The purpose of the entire body of Christ is to help others become reconciled.

And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 2 Corinthians 5:18-19.

We start with the utmost care in what we say.
