FOUNDATIONAL DOCTRINES
LEVEL 1:JESUS IS THE FOUNDATION.
LEVEL 2: REPENTENCE DUE TO GOD'S CONVICTION.
LEVEL 3: FAITH IS A COVENANT.
LEVEL 4: BAPTISMS ARE WASHINGS BY THE WORD.
LEVEL 5: LAYING ON OF HANDS IS A MEANS OF IMPARTATION.
LEVEL 6: RESURRECTION GIVES NEW LIFE AND NEW POWER.
LEVEL 7: ETERNAL JUDGEMENT IS WALKING IN THE WAYS OF GOD.
Reaching the level of walking in the ways of God in all areas of our lives is an attainable goal. We can only reach that level by allowing God to cleanse us from all sins and weaknesses that keep us from being free in Him. This freedom can only be achieved when we start to let go of that "un-God-like stuff" in our lives. Don't try to rid yourself of the "stuff" all at the same time; it would be too devastating and simply too much to bear. Allow Him to clean you up in one area at a time.
For Him to completely clean-up an area of "stuff", you must be willing to progress up the Mountain Of God one level at a time. Make Jesus your foundational step.
JESUS > (leads to) REPENTENCE > FAITH > BAPTISMS > LAYING ON OF HANDS > RESURRECTION > ETERNAL JUDGEMENT (the top of the mountain).
After you reach the top of the mountain in one area of your life, guess what? You pick another area that needs to be improved and start all over again. Cleansing by God is a continuous process. So get ready for the exercise that God has in store for you, especially those of us in the body of Christ who are self-righteous, legalistic, and those who say, "I have arrived".
