Apocalypse 21:5-7. Luke 9:23-26

The crown of life offered to the sons and daughters of the Father is theirs through the sacrificial offering of Myself and the sanctifying of Our Holy Spirit as the natural self is renounced and as they follow me in absolute self-giving. Such is the way of life eternal and to fulfilment of the Father’s will and loving purpose in them.

Have I not shown the way? I, the Father’s beloved and loving Son, His love, His Word in all creation, sacrificed the power and glory of My place at the Father’s side to enter human life to redeem and save the sons and daughters of the Father into the fulness of His love. Through obedience and suffering I fulfilled the Father’s loving purpose and now welcome – in His Presence – all faithful and triumphant in My redeeming love to the joy and glory of eternal life in Him.
