God's Daily Words: Three Phases of Action | Section 16
In the grand tapestry of divine providence, the work of today serves as a pivotal point, pushing forward the trajectory initiated by the age of grace. It marks not a cessation but a continuation, a progression of God's work under the overarching six thousand year management plan. Although the era of grace has drawn to a close, the divine hand remains in motion, orchestrating events and guiding humanity towards its ultimate destiny.
Why do I reiterate the connection between this phase of work and the preceding dispensations of grace and law? The answer lies in the intricate interplay of past, present, and future. The work of this day is not a mere departure but a natural evolution, a seamless transition from what transpired in the age of grace and the age of law. It forms a tripartite continuum, each phase intricately linked to the next, each thread weaving into the fabric of divine design.
Each link in this three-phase chain is not isolated but intimately bound to the others. Why do I assert that the work of this phase builds upon the foundation laid by Jesus? To suggest otherwise would necessitate a redundant crucifixion, a reiteration of salvation already achieved. Such redundancy would render the work meaningless, devoid of purpose. Thus, the work remains unfinished yet elevated, time marches on, and the level of work ascends to greater heights.
The work of this stage is not a solitary endeavor but a continuation, a progression built upon the foundation of past epochs. It is a logical extension, a natural evolution, not a radical departure. Only by recognizing the interconnectedness of past, present, and future can the divine plan be fully comprehended.
If the work of this stage were unrelated to the work of grace, why then is the crucifixion not repeated? Why have I not shouldered the burden of sin anew, but instead come to judge and rebuke? My role as judge and chastiser is not an arbitrary imposition but a natural consequence, a logical progression of the work initiated by Jesus.
The work of this phase is not a deviation but a continuation, a natural evolution of the work that preceded it. It is built upon the foundation laid by the period of grace, firmly anchored in the rock of Jesus' ministry. God's work unfolds in stages, each phase building upon the last, each step advancing towards the fulfillment of the divine plan.
Only by recognizing the interconnectedness of past and present can the true significance of the work be understood. Jesus and I may differ in flesh but are united in spirit. Though our ministries may diverge, our essence remains unchanged, our purpose unwavering.
The divergence of our outward appearances does not diminish the unity of our spirits. Despite differences in gender and form, we are inextricably linked, bound by a common purpose and a shared spirit.
The Spirit of Jehovah is not the Father of the Spirit of Jesus; they are one Spirit, unified in purpose and essence. Similarly, today's incarnation of God and Jesus is not defined by bloodline but by spirit.
The work of this phase is not a solitary act but a continuation of God's divine plan. It is built upon the foundation laid by past epochs, guided by the spirit that unifies all divine interventions throughout history. In recognizing this continuity, humanity can embrace its destiny, guided by the hand of divine providence towards salvation.
