SPIRITUALLY MATURE AND FULL GROWN | fukkboii's Blog

Philippians 3:15-22 (Amplified Bible)

15 So let those [of us] who are spiritually mature and full-grown have this mind and hold these convictions; and if in any respect you have a different attitude of mind, God will make that clear to you also.

    16 Only let us hold true to what we have already attained and walk and order our lives by that.

    17 Brethren, together follow my example and observe those who live after the pattern we have set for you.

    18 For there are many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, who walk (live) as enemies of the cross of Christ (the Anointed One).

    19 They are doomed and their [a]fate is eternal misery (perdition); their god is their stomach (their appetites, their sensuality) and they glory in their shame, [b]siding with earthly things and being of their party.

    20 But we are citizens of the state (commonwealth, homeland) which is in heaven, and from it also we [c]earnestly and patiently await [the coming of] the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) [as] Savior,

    21 Who will [d]transform and fashion anew the body of our humiliation to conform to and be like the body of His glory and majesty, by exerting that power which enables Him even to subject everything to Himself.

Ephesians 5:15-18 (Amplified Bible)

15 Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people),

    16 Making the very most of the time [buying up each opportunity], because the days are evil.

    17 Therefore do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is.

    18 And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but ever be filled and stimulated with the [Holy] Spirit.

1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 (Amplified Bible)

 1 FURTHERMORE, BRETHREN, we beg and admonish you in [virtue of our union with] the Lord Jesus, that [you follow the instructions which] you learned from us about how you ought to walk so as to please and gratify God, as indeed you are doing, [and] that you do so even more and more abundantly [attaining yet greater perfection in living this life].

    2 For you know what charges and precepts we gave you [[b]on the authority and by the inspiration of] the Lord Jesus.

    3 For this is the will of God, that you should be consecrated (separated and set apart for pure and holy living): that you should abstain and shrink from all sexual vice,

    4 That each one of you should know how to [c]possess (control, manage) his own [d]body in consecration (purity, separated from things profane) and honor,

    5 Not [to be used] in the passion of lust like the heathen, who are ignorant of the true God and have no knowledge of His will,

    6 That no man transgress and overreach his brother and defraud him in this matter or defraud his brother in business. For the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we have already warned you solemnly and [e]told you plainly.

    7 For God has not called us to impurity but to consecration [to dedicate ourselves to the most thorough purity].

    8 Therefore whoever disregards (sets aside and rejects this) disregards not man but God, Whose [very] Spirit [Whom] He gives to you is holy (chaste, pure).

1 Corinthians 15:31-33 (Amplified Bible)

31 [I assure you] by the pride which I have in you in [your [a]fellowship and union with] Christ Jesus our Lord, that I die daily [I face death every day and die to self].

    32 What do I gain if, merely from the human point of view, I fought with [wild] beasts at Ephesus? If the dead are not raised [at all], let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will be dead.(A)

    33 Do not be so deceived and misled! Evil companionships (communion, associations) corrupt and deprave good manners and morals and character.
