Our Need for the Divine Life
Bible Verses
Luke 6:43 For there is no good tree that produces corrupt fruit, nor again a corrupt tree that produces good fruit. (44) For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not collect figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a thornbush.
Words of Ministry
In order to practice the principles described in [Luke] 6:17- 49, we need the divine life. Life is the basic factor for any kind of being, doing, or working. If we do not have a certain kind of life, we cannot have that kind of being; neither can we have a certain behavior or accomplish a certain work. For example, an apple tree has an apple-tree life. In order for a tree to be an apple tree, it must have the life of an apple tree. Likewise, in order for an animal to be a monkey, it must have the life of a monkey. The crucial point here is that if we would have a certain being and behave in a certain way, we must have a certain kind of life. Life is the basic factor of our being, behavior, and work.
The Man-Savior has the kind of life described in chapter six of the Gospel of Luke. Before His death and resurrection, He Himself lived such a life. But through His resurrection He has become the life-giving Spirit, and now He lives in us. His desire is to live in us the same kind of life He lived on earth. In Philippians 1:21 Paul speaks of living Christ. When Christ, the God-man, was on earth, He lived a life that was according to the highest standard of morality. Now Christ lives in us so that we may live Him. This highest standard of morality is now a Person living in us and making it possible for us to live Christ.
