Faith supplies Completion

*We were gifted life to show us that our reaction to the temporary separates us from the eternal.*

Colossians 2:10
and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.

This is hard to comprehend. But the wickedness in heavenly places must fall under his direction as well then. And so would the enemy Satan, and so would Moses, and so would Elijah, and so would the our stary hosts. All spiritual authorities that Lord over us, do so under the eternal authority.

After the Holy Spirit came upon him, Jesus knew he was to be murdered. He spoke about it in parables, until the last times, when he spoke about it plainly. He did his Father's will. He allowed the eternal authority that was actually a part of his spirit and tied to the Father, he allowed it to work through him. He suffered from the moment he rose from the waters of that cleansing, to the moment the water and blood fell from his husk. He did his Father's will, and died for our sins, because his Father loved us, and he was to be the cornerstone of our reconcilliation to the Father. A reconcilliation that to be complete requires faithfulness, belief.

The Father is all things, so His authority is in all things. This means understanding can never be complete, it must at some point turn into faith. The Hebrews of the Law of sin, sought out perfect knowledge. This knowledge of good and evil allowed them to walk a path of righteous decisions, which could include venegeance, defiance, theft, murder, covetous, adultery, mysticism, idolatry, hatred, and many other human reactions to knowledge. They were shown rituals and ceremonials to cleanse themselves by the Father's authority, to return to him after having separated themselves from the spiritual so to act on their own. The only fulness was seen in the prophets and fulfilled in Christ Jesus. They were to turn away from self fulfillment through their knowledge of good and evil,  and instead begin to act on faith, and by doing so discover the will of God.

The Word of God is now the living Word of God. It has gained that which was not of it directly, which is the power of death. But death even before is was overcome, did have to acknowledge the eternal authority it was headed by. But since the beginning; it lied about it. We are even told it lied. But how disturbing to know the enemy is in itself under the eternal authority. As we know all power and authorities are under the eternal authority of the Word of God.

Angels themselves are linear in power. They serve or they deliver messages, they are extensions of the eternal authority in this way. Saul questioned  this authority and was blinded, Zachariah questioned it and was muted. Two angels were saved from savagery when Lot supplied his two virgin daughters to the men of Sodom in their stead. An angel fought with David by the river until dawn to supply him with courage and esteem. The eternal authority that angels serve or deliver messages from, has purpose, perfected in faith. No understanding of this authority is complete, as faith is the fruit of it's power.

So in our times, what can we ascertain, what can we derive? That wickedness will increase, and many will fall away from belief. They react to what they do not understand, because they remain reliant on their knowledge of good and evil. This is why many are invited and only few are chosen. But in terms of purpose, this separation is also divine, and complete.

The faithful do not seek understanding, they serve the will of the Father, by His Spirit of Truth. That faith is what shows the Father to be righteous. For the faithful, this service is born of confidence that in denial of self, the Spirit of Truth can serve the will of God through the kingdom. That kingdom is the same kingdom all heavenly power and authorities work by. It has an unseen quality. And the gifts and fruits themselves are spiritual, holy, full.

The enemy's service and what it provides is not eternal, although what brought them to task is. The tasking of the enemy's service and what it provides is temporary, and is already foretold to have an end. It is an ending of a service, one which none will have remeberance of. The complete understanding of the will of God is not something we need, if we love the Father. Instead, we serve His will, and allow it the act through us because we believe. It is these deeds of faith that show His purpose.
