Nature Free

The object of this article is to bring awareness to the born-again believer of the inborn nature resident within all born-again believers through the birthing of "Christ in you" which is the believers hope of glory, Colossians 1:27. The majority the born-again believers are unaware that our Father's Son lives in them as their only source of life, Colossians 3:4. The Father's Son was placed in born-again believers at the birthing or new birth. The believer needs to be aware of the latent power of His nature and mind in the born-again believer.

Pre-Existing Life-Nature
Before the Foundation of the World
The very first thing that the Bible discloses about God is that he was a Father prior to creation. There was no heaven, earth, universe, absolutely nothing in existence that was created. How can I say this with certainty? Confirmation of this: " Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and have translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:" ( Colossians 1:13 ). " In whom we have redemption through his blood: even the forgiveness of sins:" ( Colossians 1:14 ). " Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:" ( Colossians 1:15 ). " For by him where all things created, that are in heaven in that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:" ( Colossians 1:16 ). " and he is before all things, and by him all things consist " ( Colossians 1:17 ). This very plainly declares that it was the Son that created all things which simply means that the Son existed prior to creation. This also means that if He is a Son then there is a Father that birthed Him this was prior to creation!

When God the Father birthed His nature in His only begotten Son before creation it generated the greatest of all relationships and fellowships. What is so magnificent about this? This can be answered by asking this question. Prior to time and creation in eternity past how did God live life His own life? there was no one to advise Him as to what is the best way to live life. Confirmation: "because he could swear by no greater, he swear by himself," Hebrews 6:13.
"Who hath been his counselor," romans 11:34. He lived life as He wished simply to please Himself. Prior to creation no one else, no other power, force, restraints, laws, etc. existed at this time! This means that He was totally free to live as it pleased Him.
This can be seen in the following scriptures but not limited to these.
"Having been made known unto us the Mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in himself," Eph 1:9.
"For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do his good pleasure," Philippians 2:13."
"Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou has created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created," Revelation 4:11.
(Remember that song)
God lived life by, in, and through His own nature because there was no other power, life, regulation, Law, restraint, or nature in existence, which is the description of total freedom. He made no attempt to control His nature "against such there is no law" (law is a means of control – Galatians 5:23), and it fit Him perfectly in His capacity as Father because it constitutes who He is in His person. Note: Law as a means of control is an important fact that the believer should permanently fix in his or her mind. Law constitutes a method of control.
