The Jigsaw - Body
Of Christ
By Peter James from: www.peterjamesx.com
Let us consider The Body Of Christ as a Jigsaw
puzzle.
Precisely where do you fit into
this puzzle?
Does one of the following three
pictures represent you?
Realise, that without every single piece,
the picture is incomplete,
and personally you will not have
success, and neither will the
puzzle be completed. It is precisely the same with the Body of Christ.
Many are busy doing nothing, whilst others are going down
roads which are
leading to a dead end, so they are going nowhere.
This person, is a puzzle piece that will not fit.
Many blame Satan for the what is happening to them.
I have been told by some, that they are having a Job experience,
and that they have no idea how long it will last.
The first problem with this is that they are not by any means a ‘Job’.
He was a very special person.
The Eternal God did use Satan to teach Job a lesson,
but most times these people are simply in open rebellion,
against the Most High God. Others can clearly see this,
though of course, they are blind to this simple fact.
Job 1:8
And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job,
that there is none like him in the earth,
a perfect and an upright man,
one that feareth God,
and escheweth (hates) evil?
The very sad problem is that often, many bluntly refuse to accept
responsibility for their own actions.
It is easier to blame everyone else for problems, than ourselves.
When that is considered inadequate, we then blame Satan.
I find this most interesting.
We give Satan a very hard time.
We blame Satan, when he has not actually done anything at all.
I can visualise the situation.
Satan goes to the throne, as he does as the book of Job explains,
and he complains to the Eternal God, about getting blame,
when he has not done anything.
I would imagine, that the LORD must have a little smile on His face,
why are you complaining, you are forever accusing them,
so you are getting some of your own medicine.
Today someone had a little Rhema, speaking about our little group,
this is what it said:
You will have a great work to do.
Unfortunatelly not all will listen to you, and obey you,
They will have terrible sufferings.
This means that we are also going to experience the very same
frustration,
which we have similarly caused to others, when we did not
listen and obey,
so the wheel would have turned a full circle,
and just like I mentioned about Satan above,
we will get some of the very same medicine, which we have
given to others.
This proves, beyond a shadow of a doubt,
that the laws of the Eternal God, will take effect in the
minutest detail,
regardless of our feelings and our views.
We will reap
precisely what we have sown, period.
There are no
exceptions.
This a refining
tool, to ensure that we will completely fit into the jigsaw,
which
represents The Body Of Christ.
Reaping What
You Sow Is An Unbreakable Law
First we need to be contented with our condition,
because our circumstances are not by chance, but by Divine appointment.
We are the children of the Eternal God, we do not live by time and chance.
We are being brought to Perfection, by the Eternal God.
Philippians 4:11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned,
in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
Countless people are undergoing surgery of all kinds,
in order to supposedly enhance their bodies.
Many including young people, are having sex change operations,
in the U.K., often at great public expense.
You might well wish, that you were a different piece of the puzzle,
however, every single piece is being carefully hand crafted,
to fit in precisely where it is supposed to be.
It will not fit in anywhere else.
1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren,
by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing,
and that there be no divisions among you; but
that ye be perfectly joined
together in the same mind and in the
same judgment.
This is a very important point.
We all have to be of one accord,
otherwise we will not be part of the Manchild,
and we will not be taken to the
throne of the Eternal God, for the Wedding of the Bride,
to Christ.
The above scritpure is the critical qualifying criteria, ‘Being of One
Accord’.
The first day of Pentecost explained it well.
Each Person will only make it to the gathering place, the ‘One Place’,
if he or she is of one accord, with what Christ requires.
Carefully consider how would anyone know the time or the place for the
assembly?
If you lived far away how would you make the journey?
If you lived nearer, how would you be advised, if there is no electricy,
which means no fuel, no cars, no trains, no phones, no Satnav, no
electricity?
The simple answer is that you would not make it,
because you were a piece of the puzzle, which did not fit.
Acts 2:1 ¶ And when the day of Pentecost was fully come,
they were all with one accord in one place.
You might feel, and desire anything at all that you would like.
You might wish you were another piece of the puzzle, but if you were
another piece,
which you desired with your whole heart, the puzzle would remain
incomplete.
What part would the person, whom you would like to replace be?
Would they simply be rejected to satisfy your lust?
Are we saying, that the Eternal God does not know what He is
doing?
Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and
foreigners,
but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the
apostles
and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed
together groweth
unto an holy temple in the Lord:
Ephesians 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an
habitation
of God through the Spirit.
Colossians 2:19 And not holding the Head, from which all the
body by joints
and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together,
increaseth with the increase of God.
The puzzle below shows that without that single letter ‘S’,
the puzzle is unfinished.
The picture is quite useless without the missing ‘S’.
With a single person not playing
their full part, everyone will suffer.
When everyone is contributing
everyone will benefit.
This is how a normal pysical body functions.
If you have a head ache, all of you is unwell.
The Eternal God set up a whole system
to assist in the building
of His Temple.
It is a simple fact without the leading, and direction of
the Eternal God,
you will never find His assistants. Furthermore, even if
you have a bible,
and a computer, it does not mean
that even then,
you will be able to understand the bible.
Ephesians 4:11
And he gave some, apostles; and
some, prophets;
and some, evangelists; and some,
pastors and teachers;
Ephesians 4:12 For the perfecting of the saints,
for the work of the ministry,
for the edifying of the body of
Christ:
Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of
the faith,
and of the knowledge of the Son of
God, unto a perfect man,
unto the measure of the stature of the
fulness of Christ:
1 Corinthians 12:28 And God hath set some in the
church, first apostles,
secondarily prophets, thirdly
teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings,
helps, governments, diversities of
tongues.
This puzzle is a gigantic puzzle
involving billions of people,
I repeat.
Each person has a specific place and
function, in the puzzle, the body of Christ.
Of course eveyone has personal priorities,
ideas, and opinions,
on what each wants to do, and how it
should be done,
but the
assignments are organised in the most minute detail,
by the Eternal God, no one else.
Regarding the bible, it is not written
to be easily understood.
The parables are written to hide the
meaning, of what is being said.
Matthew 13:10 And the disciples came, and said unto him,
Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
Matthew 13:
11 He
answered and said unto them,
Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the
kingdom of heaven,
but to
them it is not given.
Matthew 13:12 For whosoever hath, to him shall
be given,
and
he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not,
from him shall be taken away even that he
hath.
Matthew 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables:
because they seeing see not; and hearing they
hear not,
neither do they understand.
Much of the
Holy Bible it is not in chronological order,
this means that it is not in time
sequence, because of our rebellion.
Isaiah 28:13 But the word of the LORD was unto them
precept
upon precept,
precept upon
precept;
line
upon line,
line upon
line;
here a
little,
and there a
little;
that they might go, and fall backward,
and be broken,
and snared, and taken.
Why am
constantly labouring these points?
The answer is very simple.
It is to help everyone to do what they need to do,
after they have been called, so that
they can successfully
be a part of the Manchild, Warrior Bride
of Christ.
It is not a matter of head knowledge.
It is a lifestyle, that has to be lived every single day.
The
laws of God have nothing at all to do with any Race, Colour,
Religion, Sex, or Age.
All of these laws apply to every single human
being on planet earth.
There are no exceptions, period.
The Laws Of God Are Not To Test Us
The
principles are very simple.
Here is an example.
If you ignore the laws, which define,
what the Eternal God has defined
as being good for food, you will
ultimately get sick.
Medicine, operations, and other
actions to negate the effects of any laws,
will always be counter productive.
The fact that something tastes good,
is not a definition for what is food.
If you try to break the laws regarding
sexual morality,
you will pay the penalty.
All of these laws cannot be broken,
but rather they will break you.
Furthermore, these laws apply in all
areas of life.
Today, whilst I was catching up on my ironing, I watched some football.
After the game the analysts were explaining what had gone wrong,
with ‘England’, who eventually won the game.
They explained that it was a failure to communicate,
which lead to a goal.
I could not believe what I heard.
The speaker did not even use the word speak, but communicate,
which is the exact word that Christ uses.
One of the players should just have communicated 3 words,
On Your Shoulder’, and his team
mate would have immediately known,
the reality of his position, and what he needed to do.
It really made me smile.
Hebrews 13:16 But to do good and to communicate forget not:
for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
Almost every day, I am telling those around me to listen carefully and
obey,
what you are told to do. Our Rhema has been saying this for a very long
time.
The reason for the repetition, is that as far as the Eternal
God is concerned,
we are failing to do, what we are told to do, thus the
repetition.
I know this to be a fact, because I see the consequences.
All of the above advice is critical, and it all needs to
become an intrinsic
part of our being.
The picture below shows that the
puzzle is in the hands of the Master
Designer, and He knows exactly where
each part goes.
Only He, the
Eternal God, knows where each part goes.
Only He, the
Eternal God is fitting all the parts together,
it is not instant it is a process.
You might think that you can make it
on your own, in your way,
and somehow you will be a part of the
Body of Christ,
when the mess completely hits the fan.
I have news for you.
There
are many people, who believe that they can have one foot in one camp,
and another foot in an opposing camp,
as a sort of insurance,
others reason that things will work
out for them.
It simply does not work that way, because
they are not of one accord.
Below we
can see that there is a single piece missing from the jigsaw.
Romans 9:28 For
he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness:
because a short work will the Lord make upon
the earth.
Philippians
1:6 Being confident of this very
thing, that he which hath begun
good work in you will perform it until
the day of Jesus Christ:
Hebrews 11:10 For he looked for a city which hath
foundations,
whose builder and maker is God.
Romans 9:19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet
find fault?
For who hath resisted his will?
Romans
9:20 Nay but, O man,
who art thou that repliest against God?
Shall
the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
Romans
9:21 Hath not the potter power over the clay,
of the same lump
to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
Romans
9:22 What if God,
willing to shew his wrath,
and to make his
power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels
of wrath fitted
to destruction:
Romans
9:23 And that he
might make known the riches of his glory
on the vessels of
mercy, which he had afore prepared unto
glory,
In the below picture if the missing piece, refuses to be
moulded to fit,
it
will be discarded, and a
completely new piece will be made that will fit.
We have been
warned about this several years ago.
What if we have
arrived at the point as shown below,
when just you are
the missing piece, which is holding up the completion
of the puzzle,
the Body of Christ?
This is pretty serious stuff.
Only the Eternal God, can see the whole
picture,
and make His plan a reality.
The pieces which are in the hands of
the Master Builder,
are to construct the New Jerusalem,
the Final Temple of the Eternal God.
1 Corinthians
3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God,
and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in
you?
It
is wrong to imagine, that the Eternal God is going to dwell in a body part,
which is in confusion.
It will
never happen.
1 Corinthians
14:33 For
God is not the author of confusion,
but of peace, as in all churches of
the saints.
James 3:16 For where envying and strife is,
there is confusion and every evil work.
Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect,
even as
your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Perfection is not achieved by doing
works of any type whatsoever.
It is the result of listening to, and obeying the
Eternal God in reality,
and not just having concepts in our
minds.
Unlike what many are taught, there is
never going to be an instant development
of character, just because Christ
returns. There are many things to happen
before Christ returns, and the required character has to be wrought in our spirits now.
If we are introverts, and
self-centred, we will not suddenly be made
extroverts,
and generous in the blink of an eye.
It is a lesson that we are all going
to learn, whether we like it or not.
All documents on my
website, should be carefully studied
and not read casually.
