SALVATION
2. GOD'S PLAN OF SALVATION

Through the atoning death of Jesus, God the Father has paid the ransom for every person on earth. As a vicarious sacrifice, Jesus took upon himself all the sins, diseases, injustices and complicities of the darkness of every person. God had to reject Him to die, because He had taken our sins upon Himself. On the cross at Galvary Jesus took the death punishment as the Sacrificial Lamb on our behalf. God rejected Jesus on the cross, so that through Him we could get back into the unity with God the Father.

The salvation of Jesus is a perfect gift for every person. It is a supernatural act of immense love and power of God. Every person who receives Jesus, shall receive full unity with God the Father. The Holy Spirit will flow from the Father into His children. Increasing filling with the Holy Spirit will lead into deeper deliverance, healing and restoration of the spirit, soul, body and life of the believer. You too have a perfect right to the supernatural promise of the Holy Spirit and through it a new life in God's kingdom.

Col. 2:13-15: And you, who were dead in your trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, he made you alive together with him, forgiving us all our trespasses - taking away all trespasses from us through the blood of Jesus - and blotting out the scripture with its statutes that were against us and was our adversary; he took it out of our way and nailed it to the cross. He disarmed governments and powers and put them under public shame; he obtained from them through him the joy of victory.

A human person consists of the spirit, soul and body. God has created the human spirit to have connection with Him. Through this unity with the Holy Spirit the born again spirit has authority over the soul and body of the human being. Through the atoning work of Jesus, God the Father can now accept the cleansed human spirit into his communion.

Through the spirit God will restore all of the believers' life. Your spirit has the highest authority in your life. Through your spirit, which is united with God, you are eternally saved into union with God. Your soul, body and life may still have various problems with darkness, but you will overcome them by the faith of God, which now operates in and through your spirit.

By His supernatural faith, the Father looks at the saved person's soul and body through Jesus' work of atonement. He sees only a completely cleansed and justified person. The ministry of the Holy Spirit is to deliver, heal and restore your spirit, soul, body and whole life. God's original plan for you shall be accomplished. Jesus will perform this in co-operation with your will and spiritual exercise.

The Holy Spirit will lead you to reject demonization, heal from your trauma, break free from your addiction and other pressures of darkness. Since you are now completely owned by God, you must obey and renounce all darkness. The Holy Spirit will teach you everything and lead into the Kingdom of God.

Through the power of the Holy Spirit, you have the faith of God to demand and command the presence and effects of darkness to leave from your life. Through the anointing of the Holy Spirit, you have the right and ability to approach the Father. The Holy Spirit will lead you to ask for and receive all the blessings that the Father has prepared for you in Jesus.

Overcoming the darkness in your life is based on the presence of Jesus in your spirit. In the realm of God's faith, you operate with Jesus merged in His authority. God the Father looks at you through the atoning work of Jesus. He rejoices when you assume the position and authority that He has prepared in Jesus. He sees you already made perfect according to His plan. He placed His plan in Heaven when He created you in His thoughts. Through Jesus you will now find your original character and start fulfilling your original plan with God.

With Jesus you have different levels of glory to achieve. Your highest calling is to become like Him as the Anointed One. Therefore, your Father has given you the promise of the immersion in the Holy Spirit. The disciples of Jesus went through this transformation process in the Fire of the Holy Spirit. The same promise and calling is waiting for you also.

Acts 2:38-39: And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.

God's forgiveness is the most powerful manifestation of His love, authority and power. It means removing all the presence and effects of the darkness from His children. This includes deliverance from unbelief, hatred, demons, fears, traumas, sicknesses, curses, poverty, failure, slavery, oppression, rejection and all other darkness. This deliverance leads every believer to live under the rule of Jesus and to receive all His blessings. When you believe according to this, you believe as God believes for you.

The enemy of the soul will lose all his rights over the person who receives Jesus. Through salvation of Jesus God the Father has the right to take the believers as his own forever. Through the kingship of Jesus, the Father can clothe the saved in Heaven in the body of resurrection. This will be the absolute fulfillment of the salvation of Jesus.

Rom. 3:21-24: But now the righteousness of God, of which the law and the prophets testify, has been revealed without the law, that righteousness of God, which through faith in Jesus Christ comes to all and upon all who believe; it makes no difference. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and receive the gift of righteousness by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus...

Jesus' salvation is manifested through God's faith. Jesus has forgiven your sins, dealt with all your illnesses and other enslavements. God the Father has declared you righteous and pure in the world of His Spirit through the presence of the Holy Spirit. Jesus has come to live in your heart through the Holy Spirit. In your heart is a testimony of the Father's approval. You may not always feel great emotions, but your spirit will testify that the Father has accepted you into his communion.

God's saving and merciful love (in Greek "eleos") has touched you and made you object of His loving favor (in Greek "karis"). Jesus works with you all the time in order to reveal more of His blessings for you. The Father has faith in you as His child because He has faith in the saving work of His Son for you. You cannot yet understand all this, but the Holy Spirit leads you and will teach you all.
