To Be Like Jesus

Calvary Temple

Philippians 2:12-15 tells us to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling with the end result that we become Christlike, but we certainly can’t do it on our own. We need the Holy Spirit to transform us into Christlikeness so that He can then present us to the Father as His pure bride.

That transformation process, which we sometimes call sanctification, might take a long while, but if we will partner with Him and give him those dead parts of ourselves, He will work on us little by little, until Jesus can be clearly seen shining through us, yes, even in those places where dysfunction and devastation used to be.
