The Teachings of Heavenly Mother Part 5

I was so moved by a recent sermon that I heard about the "Spirit of Sonship and the Spirit of Slavery". In the Bible, God lets us know that there is a spirit that makes us slaves to fear, and a Spirit of sonship.

"For you did not receive a spirit that makes you slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, 'Abba, Father.'" (Rom 8:15-16)

"Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, 'Abba, Father.' So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir." (Gal 4:6-7)

Now, as the sons of God, we have been given the blessing to call God our Father, and the inheritance of the kingdom of heaven. We are not hired workers, but the children of God. In the time of apostle Paul, the mystery of the sons of God was yet to be revealed, as the Scripture says:

"The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed." (Rom 8:19)

The sons of God could not be revealed until the last days, until the new order, as God prophesied:

"...Put on your garments of splendor, O Jerusalem, the holy city." (Isa 52:1)

"Lift up you eyes and look around; all your sons gather and come to you. 'As surely as I live,' declares the Lord, 'you will wear them all as ornaments; you will put them on , like a bride.'" (Isaiah 49:18)

"I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband...He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." (Rev 21:2-4)

"O afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted, I will build you with stones of turquoise, your foundations with sapphires. I will make your battlements of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones. All your sons will be taught by the Lord, and great will be your children's peace." (Isa 54:11-13)

"And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God. It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal...The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone..." (Rev 21:19-22)

The sons of God were made to adorn the Heavenly Jerusalem, the Holy City coming down out of heaven--meaning not of this world. She is the bright Morning Star that shines with the Glory of God! She was what the creation was really waiting for (Rev 19:7-9), and now she is being revealed; she is our Mother.

"But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother." (Gal 4:26, cf. Rev 21:10)

Now that Mother has appeared, we are no longer slaves (Gal 4:30-31). Through her Word, we are being made into the sons of God (Micah 4:1-2).
