Not only does the knowledge of Christ give life to our soul, but it also gives life to the body of Christ when we exchange it. God calls this a priesthood. It is the priesthood of Jesus Christ.

Remember Jesus said,

John 6:35-56
“He that eateth my flesh, and drinks my blood, dwells in me, and I in him. I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.”

The knowledge of Christ is the bread of life which gives direction for faith, sustains and strengthens faith and feeds the soul. The knowledge of Christ is the language of our second birth. We speak according to Christ by this one scale of knowledge.

The priesthood of the Spirit is a new tradition in Jesus. We exchange the holy knowledge, stewarding the grace we have received. Being adopted into God’s house we are now corralled from the open wilderness of the flesh into a fenced in pasture.

By the new language of Christ, we are able to glorify God. This begins with the tokens of the priesthood which is prayer, preaching and prophecy. We are able to glorify God by reciprocating Christ back to God through charity by which we partake of the divine power to take on the divine nature.

The language of Christ is divine because it’s from above. Jesus said, “I and my Father are one”, thus the knowledge of Christ is not of this world. Everything Jesus said and did was a reflection of God’s character, purpose and plan. Jesus was and is the prototype and blueprint of our glory. If we die with Him, we shall be risen with Him. If we suffer with Him, we shall reign with Him.

The language of Christ is superior. Jesus is the way, truth and life. The power of Jesus’ resurrection is what makes His language of faith superior, in that the Spirit makes all things living. Thus, the Spirit of God only enter into the divine knowledge of Christ, making faith living.

Furthermore, the language of Christ is superior because it is our separation from the world. God gifted the church with the knowledge of Christ. By weighing our thoughts upon the scale of Christ we bring our imagination into subjection to God.

As our language changes so also does our experience. Instead of the bondage of the flesh, we experience the liberty of Christ in our growth cycle.

Hebrews 12:9
“Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?”

So, how do we learn the language of Christ? It’s begins with bringing ourselves under the apostolic stewardship of Chief Apostle Eric. God teaches us through stewardship, and this is where doctrinal cleansing comes in.

The problem God is addressing during this season of transition to the covenant is that believers want to work with the anointing first without learning to speak the language of God. This is backwards. You must first learn the ABCs of the covenant, which are the elements of the gospel. Then you can begin working with the anointing.

The language we speak is the kingdom we are tethering ourselves to. If we join ourselves to the kingdom of the flesh, we learn how to speak a powerless language that ends at the grave. The promises of God remain out of reach to those who remain tethered to the kingdom of the flesh because they are restricted to the language of their first birth.

Our first birth was with the fallen nature of Adam by which we compiled a resume of death, which is in conflict with God. By this design, the heart only knows its own record in the imagination, but doesn’t see its corruption in death.

Man set a high value on his imagination because it bears witness to his own record. On the contrary, God set a high value on the knowledge of Christ. The value is in the source you are tethering yourself to. You can’t weigh the value of the things of God by the record of man and the voice of the aspiration. So, here again, God begins a separation process by introducing His one scale of truth.

And just to be clear, truth is not discovered it’s revealed by apostolic stewardship and the anointing.

Remaining tethered to the flesh means to sow to the flesh. If you sow to the flesh it builds envy and corruption as the flesh only identifies with itself. In Christ we lose the voice of our record, choosing grace and truth over the philosophy of the land to build with God.

In Christ we are sowing to the Spirit, and the language of the priesthood identifies Jesus. Sowing to the Spirit means that we remain tethered to God, laboring with truth by the power of the anointing which brings change to build and bond with God.

We contribute to the building of the kingdom of the Lord through the guidance of the stewardship, choosing grace over the glitter of the world, laboring with faith and not our own signature.

Only by the language of the priesthood of Christ can the veil of ignorance be lifted to see the value of Christ. By Him we are joined to God and bear forth the eternal fruit of His eternal kingdom. This is the will of God, and the anointing continues to carry our faith in the fullness of Christ.

Those of the world continue to express their ignorance, while the righteous fellowship with the Spirit to build with God being in agreement with Him.
