What we Experience when we Live in the Divine and Mystical Realm of the Spirit

It is very important what realm we live in. These days we are all praying and looking to the Lord to save so many of these refugees from the Arab world in Europe, and there are many reports on how the Lord is moving, gaining, saving, baptizing, and bringing them into the church life so that they would enjoy Christ, be filled with Christ, and become building members of the Body of Christ.

Physically speaking, however, hundreds of thousands of people who were in war-devastated countries sought to enter into another realm with more possibilities and benefits, where they can live a higher level of human life and contribute to society.

In their own country back home there was war, oppression, shortage of food and water, and in general a poor situation; now in this new realm in Western Europe they find shelter, food, education, and – hopefully – integration into the society.

As believers in Christ should realize that in our flesh, in our natural man, and in our flesh we are in a very poor, deprived, and awful situation; we need to enter into, become part of, and live in another realm, the kingdom of God, which is a divine and mystical realm.

In the kingdom of God in our mingled spirit we enjoy many benefits, riches, and wonderful things that both elevate our human life and cause us to become different persons for the building up of the church as the Body of Christ.

Day by day and even moment by moment we need to live not only in the human physical realm but also in the divine and mystical realm of the consummated Spirit, in the kingdom of God, by simply living in the mingled spirit and doing everything in spirit.

There are many “poor and hungry Christians” today, who can be likened to the refugees back in their homeland – all who don’t live in the spirit to be human yet living divinely are in a poor situation, deprived of food, water, supply, and they don’t enjoy many benefits, riches, and wonderful things.

Oh, may we be those who choose to turn to our spirit, contact the Lord, breathe Him in, drink Him, and live in spirit to enjoy all the benefits and riches in the wonderful divine and mystical realm of the consummated Spirit and the pneumatic Christ!

What we Experience when we Live in the Divine and Mystical Realm of the Spirit

As believers in Christ, we should live in the divine and mystical realm of the consummated Spirit and the pneumatic Christ. In this realm we have many benefits, riches, and wonderful things, which makes us a proper kind of person that can contribute to the building up of the church as the Body of Christ, the temple of God. Here are some benefits and riches we enjoy in this wonderful realm.

In the divine and mystical realm, we receive the Spirit as the unique all-inclusive blessing. The divine and mystical realm into which we have been born is the realm of the Spirit: here the Spirit is everything to us as the unique blessing, the all-inclusive blessing of the gospel (see Gal. 3:14, 2, 5).

God promised Abraham the blessing (Gen. 12:3), saying that in his seed all the nations of the earth will be blessed, and his seed will own the good land. Now through the gospel, we receive not only the forgiveness of sins, washing, and cleansing but also the greatest blessing: the Triune God as the processed, all-inclusive, life-giving Spirit who comes into us to dwell in us and supply us constantly in a subjective way for our enjoyment!

Whenever we call, Oh Lord Jesus! we breathe in the life-giving Spirit as the unique and all-inclusive blessing, and we have everything we need!

In the divine and mystical realm we receive the transmission of the ascended Christ. God raised Christ from the dead, exalted Him, enthroned Him, and gave Him to be Head over all things to the church, which is His Body (Eph. 1:21-22).

The transmission of the ascended Christ produced the Body of Christ, and we as the members of the Body are constantly under the continual transmission of the Head, receiving all His riches and enjoying His supply – simply by being in the mingled spirit, the divine and mystical realm.

In the church life we should live and do everything in the divine and mystical realm to enjoy the transmission of our ascended Head, Christ, and we will do everything for the building up of the church! Praise the Lord, in the church life the heavenly transmission is taking place in us all! Hallelujah!

In the divine and mystical realm, we receive the supply of His heavenly ministry. Our Christ is no longer in the flesh on the earth: He is now both in the heavens and in our spirit to minister all that God is and Christ has accomplished into us. We are limited, but our Christ is never limited.

Christ in His heavenly ministry is the Lord, the Christ, the Leader, the Savior, the High Priest, the Advocate, the Intercessor, the Mediator, the surety and foretaste, the Comforter, the life-giver, and the Lamb of God – for us to enjoy and partake of!

When we are in our mingled spirit, we enjoy Christ as the unlimited wonderful One with so many riches, and all that He is becomes our supply, enjoyment, and experience for the building up of the Body of Christ! We need to daily live in the divine and mystical realm to receive the supply of His heavenly ministry, and our work will become our rest and enjoyment!

In the divine and mystical realm we experience God’s organic salvation. We have been saved from the world and redeemed back to God, but now that we have been reconciled to God, we are being much more saved in His life (Rom. 5:10).

In order for us to be saved in His life much more today, we need to be in the divine and mystical realm; when we live in spirit and walk according to the Spirit, we are being renewed, sanctified, transformed, conformed, glorified, and built up.

In order for us to participate in God’s organic salvation, we need to enter into and live in the divine and mystical realm where we have the pneumatic Christ, the Lord Spirit, the Christ in resurrection to be everything to us and to save us to the uttermost in His life!

In the divine and mystical realm, we live in the kingdom of God as the realm of the divine species. When we were born again of God, we entered into another realm, the realm of the divine species; we were given the authority and the privilege to be children of God who are born not of the flesh or the will of men but of God (John 1:12-13).

As believers in Christ we are more in God’s kind than Adam was: we now have the divine life in us, we are God-men, we live in the realm of the divine species, and we are being transformed and conformed to the image of Christ in our entire being.

We need to realize that we are God-men, and we need to live not merely in the human realm but simultaneously in the divine and mystical realm, the realm of the divine species, by living not in our natural life but by the divine life in our spirit.

In the divine and mystical realm, we live the Christian life according to the function of the law of life. Whenever we are in Christ Jesus, that is, in the divine and mystical realm of the consummated Spirit, the law of the Spirit of life automatically works to deliver us from the law of sin and of death and to shape us and conform us to the image of Christ (Rom. 8:2, 29).

As long as we live in the spirit, there is an automatic function of the Spirit of life that, on the one hand, delivers us from sin, and on the other, imparts God’s life into us to conform us to the image of Christ. When we live in the divine and mystical realm, we live a spontaneous and effortless Christian life according to the automatic function of the law of life and we express Christ. Hallelujah!

In the divine and mystical realm we live a life of truthfulness. The apostle John “loved in truthfulness” and wrote quite a bit concerning how the divine reality is becoming our human genuineness, truthfulness, and reality when we live in the divine and mystical realm (see 2 John 1; 3 John 1; John 4:23-24).

When we live in the mingled spirit we become genuine persons, and the divine reality becomes our genuineness and sincerity; we will then love in truthfulness, worship God in truthfulness, and live a daily life that is real, genuine, and full of sincerity and truthfulness.

In the world of phoniness and politics today, where everyone is trying to be politically correct, we need to live in the divine and mystical realm to become genuine persons who express the divine reality of the Triune God.

In the divine and mystical realm, we are mingled with the Triune God for the keeping of the oneness. Oneness, as defined by the Lord Jesus in John 17:21, is not merely unity or outward agreement but the enlargement of the oneness in the Triune God by the believers being in the divine and mystical realm of the consummated Spirit, Christ in resurrection.

Our oneness is in the Triune God, with the pneumatic Christ and the consummated Spirit; this is the genuine oneness, which is the mingling of the believers with the Triune God. The only way for us to be truly one and to keep the oneness of the Body is by living in the mingled spirit, by living in the divine and mystical realm of the consummated Spirit to be mingled with God and be brought into the enlarged oneness of the Triune God.

Many problems in the church arise because we live merely in the physical realm; when we live in the realm of the Spirit, we are one spontaneously!

Lord Jesus, we want to live in the divine and mystical realm of the consummated Spirit and the pneumatic Christ today so that we may be under the constant transmission of the ascended Christ. Lord, minister all that You are and have obtained into us as we exercise our spirit and live in spirit. May we live in spirit to experience God’s organic salvation moment by moment. Hallelujah, we are now in kingdom of God as the realm of the divine species, and we are God-men living by the divine life in our spirit! Lord, amen, we want to switch on the law of the Spirit of life in us to be freed from the law of sin and of death and be filled with the divine life which transforms us and conforms us to the image of Christ! Oh Lord, may the revealed divine reality be expressed in us as we live in spirit to live a life of truthfulness!
