Before We Get Gathered

Number 63: August 6, 2006



We are the Continuously Dynamic Church today. “Dynamic” denotes an ability to change. It contrasts stagnation, which connotes inactivity, apathy, disinterest, indifference, lack of concern, or sameness. A true dynamic church is a changing church that operates God’s power based on His written Word. We are dynamic because we have been given the ability to change and effectively meet every new and different situation with God’s effectual power.



Romans 10:9:

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.



Confessing Jesus as lord and really believing in one’s heart that God raised Jesus from the dead gives one eternal life. The person who makes this confession goes from eternal death to eternal life, and will never more come into condemnation. That is quite a dynamic change!



I Corinthians 15:51 and 52:

Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.



When Christ returns to gather his Church, those who believed regarding him will be changed forever into a new spiritual body. Then they will be with the lord eternally.



Philippians 3:21:

Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.



These are two major changes in one’s life. Going from eternal death to eternal life and then being changed into the new body which is unlimited in scope and ability. In-between these changes, we need to endeavor to keep God first, not in slavery but as children enjoying our heavenly Father and all His benefits.



II Timothy 3:16:

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:



God in the Bible has given words that will help us to keep Him first. He has given us the doctrine to life that instructs us on how to put and keep him in His proper position. He has also given us words of reproof that show us where we are off, and then how to get back right with Him. This requires meekness, humbleness and change. We do it out of love and gratitude, so we can be our best for Him, and also because we will be rewarded for all eternity. Thus, godly change and growth is good. Try to be more dynamic today as you continue to walk with and for Him.
