THE “GOD-MEN”
(You’re The Child Of God And Carry His Life, Nature, And Attributes),
? Pastor Chris Oyakhilome;
? TO THE BIBLE
Romans 8:14 NASB “For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.”
◀ LET’S TALK
When we say, for example, “Jesus Christ is the Son of God,” what that means is that Jesus Christ is the “God-man.” That’s why when Jesus told the Jews He is the Son of God, they wanted to stone Him to death (read John 10:22-39). They understood what He meant; He was saying, “I’m the God-man”; that means God in human flesh. The response from the Jews showed that that was what He meant; they said, “How can you, a man, make yourself equal with God?” For that, they were ready to kill him, because in their religious mind, that was blasphemy.
They understood He wasn’t just talking about his geniture, for they already knew Mary was his mother and assumed Joseph was his father. Until Jesus was raised from the dead, He wasn’t the ‘begotten’ of the Father. He became the ‘first begotten’ of the Father when He was raised from the dead, and the Father said to Him, “…You are My Son, Today I have begotten You…” (Acts 13:32,33; Hebrews 1:5,6 ).
That’s why the Bible says that Jesus heads the new creation. He’s called the “first begotten” from the dead, because of the rest of us! When He died on the cross, He was our representative; we all died in Him.
When God raised Him up, we were raised in Him. Thus, in Christ, you’re a god-man. Psalm 82:6 says, “I said, “You are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High.”” This was a prophetic language, because we’re born of the same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead. Hallelujah!

Dear Father, thank you for the consistent education and training of my spirit through your Word. By the power of the Holy Spirit at work in me, I take my place, and fulfil my ministry as the god-man in my world, and I declare that only the righteousness of God prevails in my environment, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
