We have to separate the old testament glory form the new....Jesus is that Rock of revelation. Old things are passing away, all things are made new. If we bring the old into the new, we will view things by the law that God used to impute sin.This does not "do away" with the old testament, but brings it into the proper perspective that it is to have.The O.T glory doesn't begin to compare with the new and what we now can have through the finished work of Jesus.

 His nature is expressed now in His goodness, mercy and longsuffering ...Jesus did this for us. He made the great exchange, paid the price, so we can now walk into His fullness as we  personally and corporately can receive it. This IS our cross... It s great day to be alive, as God takes His body into much ,much more!

Why would we continue to suffer,which the church has taught us ...when Jesus took all that at the cross for us?  There is one thing we will suffer that HE tells us...persecution. All else, He overcame for us. Our personal cross is to work out wrong mindsets and take His yoke...which is easy, it is to embrace the freedom -come out from all past effects of sin and generational curses... break all ties to ungodly things. This IS the process as we receive wisdom and revelation to do it.

Jesus would not tell us that we have to suffer with Him, as in the way HE did. HE overcame it for us. …our cross is not THE cross…He said  to take up your own cross. HE finished it and gave us the grace and revelation to get out from under all areas we have come into agreement with the enemy and be set free! This is the beginning of walking in His fullness.  AAF
