I had the opportunity to visit with one of my spiritual fathers recently, Bill Magnusen, a true prophet in this age. As he often does, he extols the virtues of our Lord Jesus and brings light to me. I always enjoy the fellowship, but more importantly, I love the insight this true man and patriarch of God reveals regarding the nature and character of Christ. The Father is still speaking through his prophets. I have shared Mr. Magnusen's latest writing with you today. Be blessed!

Jesus said, "I am the way, the Truth, and the Life." When observing the corporate body of Christ, it seems Christ has been put on the "back burner" instead of the front. Jesus said that we should live for Him and if necessary die for Him. This level of commitment is not reflected in the average congregation. Since Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, we should see a greater commitment to Him than is presently demonstrated. It seems that we preach a gospel that is on whatever level is comfortable.
To state the case simply, deception has come into the body of Christ. The battle that is raging is so subtle that we have not received the warning. The Bible reveals this warning; "And they all drank the same supernaturally given drink. For they drank from a spiritual Rock which followed them-produced by the sole power of God Himself without natural instrumentality and the Rock was Christ." (1 Corin. 10:4 amp) Nevertheless, God was not pleased with the great majority of them. These are examples for us. This Word says we are all partakers of the one common Bread. The one for whom the common bread represents-Jesus Christ and drink from the same supernatural Rock.
In the Book of Revelations we are further warned, "The dragon was furious (enraged) at the woman and he went away to wage war on the remainder (overcomers) of her descendants, those who obey God's commandments, and who have the testimony of Jesus Christ, and who adhere to it and bear witness to Him. The Word says, "And they overcame Him by the blood of the Lamb, the word of their testimony and they loved not their lives unto death".
To restate, Christ has left us His plan lived out through Him. Jesus empowered the apostles to go out to heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons, open the eyes of the blind, set the captives free, and preach the Kingdom of God. Now because Christ is not preeminent, the Body has reverted to other means - mainly a watered down gospel of comfort and lip service. May the Lord open our eyes to the potential of "Christ in you the hope of glory"; "No longer I that live but Christ lives in me"; "I in the Father, the Father in me, and I in you." Jesus is the Way, the Truth, the Life. Jesus said, "Have I been so long with you and you still do not know me?"
