Preparing for Heaven Preface

 Gal 5:22  But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 

Gal5:23  Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

For all believers who are and have followed our Lord Jesus in a lifetime of regeneration there is a better world awaiting all where our Lord called a “place” that he went away to prepare for us.  That “place” is our eternal home that he is preparing for us. He is preparing IN us by his Divine nature that we may be made ready and suitable for that heavenly PLACE.  

We shall not go to any place that is contrary to our spiritual nature.  If we have any element of darkness in our souls in which we live here, a beautiful home of divine Light will be repulsive.  If there is any element of evil in our hearts here in this life, a life of good and love will be of a discordant nature in heaven.  

By the operation of the Holy Ghost, which is Christ in you, you and I are prepared for our heavenly home. This is evident by the fruit of the Spirit, a living spiritual organism at work within our souls.  

All darkness, all contrariness, all that give life and expression to what is opposite to the FRUIT of the Spirit will not inherit that PLACE that he has gone to prepare for us.  That place that he has gone to prepare for us MUST BEGIN IN US, here and now.  

When we leave our earthly dwelling place, our natural bodies, which will be left behind in a cold dark grave, we will rise to inherit our eternal home of which we have prepared for ourselves WITH or WITHOUT the operation of the Spirit of Christ in our souls here in this life.  

This life is only a probationary period of PREPARATION of our eventual home.  If what we have in our souls is in any way discordant to the nine fruit of the Spirit, we will be a discordant soul in heaven.  If we have the nine fruit of the Spirit in control and operational in our lives, which are on full display for all the world and angels to see, our very nature would be repelled by hell and eternal darkness. We would be unacceptable there.  

After this life, we will go to our eternal home for which we have allowed ourselves to be prepared for while in this life.  In the end, we will go where we have allowed ourselves to be prepared.  

If we have love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness  and temperance on full dispsslay in our daily lives here in this life, we will eventually GO to the ORIGIN of all that is of love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness  and temperance.  

Therefore, let us refuse the works of evil and darkness and let the Spirit of the Lord have full control of our daily lives while we live and journey through this life.  

Therefore:

Gal 5:25, “If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.”  Let us let the work of PERFECTION not only begin but be complete as the fruit of the Spirit ripens and matures in our lives.  

I want to see each and everyone of you, my brothers, my sisters, and all who call themselves my friends

in that sweet  home above where there will be sweet peace forever.  

With Love,

Brother Sterange
