00:00:05 Introduction to New Creations, Sons of God
Greetings, friends and new listeners, and welcome to this program of the R.G. Hardy Ministries. I’m Sharon Knotts, thanking you for joining us today as we know that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Today’s message by my father, Brother Hardy, is from his classic series, New Creations, Sons of God. A hallmark scripture of Christians is 2 Corinthians 5, 17. If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature. And this new creature is a son of God or a child of God. You see, the term son of God in New Testament scripture is not a gender determiner, but rather a legal position, which Brother Hardy explains and so much more in this in-depth teaching, New Creation, Sons of God.
SPEAKER 02 :
You talk about a place of safety. You talk about security, the women will appreciate me more because they’re creatures that are just motivated and driven to want to be secure. How many say amen? And you’re talking about a security child of God I mean being in the mighty hand in the mighty power of him that says that I have all power in heaven and earth you can’t have a greater security in all of the universe hallelujah devil can’t get to me devil can’t find me a lot of times in my preaching I would say who’s afraid of the big bad wolf I’m not afraid of the big bad wolf for number one this is not a fairy tale this is the truth number two I’m not a little piggy I’m a child of God Number three, I’m not in a straw house. I’m not in a stick house. I’m in the rock of ages that has cleft for me. Hallelujah. And there in the rock of ages, I am safe. How many say amen? Safe in the arms, safe in the hand of Jesus. am NOT going to be safe I’m not in the process of being safe I am safe I am NOT going to be delivered I am NOT in the process of being delivered I am delivered out of the power out of the authority of the Satan and translated into the authority of the Lord Jesus now the word power It’s not the word deutymous when we think of power, but this word in the Greek is not deutymous, it’s exousia, which means power to rule. I’m out of the ruling power of the devil. I’m in where Jesus rules. And also this word, he has delivered us, is an eros tense in the Greek, which means that something has been done in the past and it’s completed. It’s been completed in the past. So it means that sometime, I or you as a Christian, sometime in our past, the Lord reached down with his mighty, omnipotent hand, scooped us up out of the prison house of Satan, took us all the way out of his dominion, and placed us in his own kingdom, where he is sovereign, where he is Lord, where there’s only righteous ones, so I have no fear of anyone wanting to do any unrighteousness to me, and therefore that genders peace, and then peace genders joy, and I have the joy knowing I’m safe and protected in the power of the Holy Ghost. this is not going to happen this is not in the process of happening this has happened period ha somewhere in my christian past and you know when that somewhere was the moment i repented of my sins And the Spirit of God took the precious blood of Jesus and cleansed and washed me from all sin and unrighteousness and took the Word of God and begot me into a new life. creature a son of god then i was taken out from under the dominion and the power of satan and translated and transported and put into the kingdom of the dear son of god and there i am protected and hid in his mighty power without any fear of any power violently season me from God and it’s him there for all eternity and when Christ who is my life shall appear I shall also appear with him in majesty and in glory hallelujah I’m excited I’m getting excited. No wonder the songwriter wrote the song. I get so thrilled with Jesus. Alcohol doesn’t thrill me. Nicotine doesn’t thrill me. The lust of the flesh doesn’t thrill me, but Jesus thrills me. Hallelujah. All right. Where I am not, I am not where the devil rules. But I am where Jesus rules. Let me read to you from Ephesians 2, 5 and 6. And Paul is talking about what I’ve been preaching on. He said, even when we were dead in sins, have quick in us. Of course, you have to go up to the verse ahead to know who have quick in us. God… has quickened us together with Christ. And that’s a very important phrase, together with Christ. Since the moment that you have been born again, you are together with Christ. Wherever Christ is, you’re together with him. You are hid with him. Hid with Christ in God. So you should keep in your mind the word with. You know, the preposition means, you know, some kind of location. In something, going into something, resting in something, on top of something, under something, beside something, with someone. We’re with Christ. What a terrible consequence of repentance. With Christ, that means all power, omnipotence is with me, and at any time that I need a miracle, the potential for a miracle is there, because I’m with the one that has the miracle working power. When we were in sin, and then repented, God quickened us, made us alive with Christ. How many say amen? Quicken us together with Christ. By grace you are saved. He puts that little emphasis in there. And has raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Amen. You see, where we’re not, we’re not where Satan rules. Where we are, we’re together with Christ, seated in the heavenlies. We are in his kingdom. We are with him. You see, a part of me’s already been raptured or translated. That’s my inner man. And that inner man has been raised up with Jesus. See, it’s two raisings. Raised from the dead and raised out of the power of the world and sanctum. And raised to the right hand of Almighty Father. Because Jesus was not only raised from the dead and then left here. He was raised up above all principalities, powers, thrones, dominions and rules and names. The Father said to him, sit at my right hand until I make thine enemy thy footstool. And that’s where we are, no longer in the devil’s territory, but we have been quickened and raised from our death of trespasses and sin, and raised up together with Christ to sit in heavenly places. And right now, child of God, spiritually speaking, you are seated in Christ Jesus at the right hand of the Father there in heavenly places. Let me read Ephesians 1, 20 to 22. This is what happened. when God raised Jesus from the dead. I could go up to the 19th verse and say that God wants us to know the exceeding greatness of his power towards us. That power that he manifested that was so powerful when he raised Jesus from the dead. Which he wrought in Christ when he raised him from the dead and set him at his own right hand in heavenly places. far above all principalities and powers and might and dominion and every name that is named, not only in this world or in this age world, the world in this present age of grace, but also in that age or that one, I’m putting in the word, but also in that which is to come and have put and has put all things under his feet. I want you to see where we’re at. And God wants us to know his exceeding greatness of his power. He wants us to know that power that he’s projecting and sending towards us. That power that’s so powerful, when he energized it, it raised Christ from the dead. Two raisings. Not only raising him from the dead, but then raised him up, this mighty power. Raised him up far above all principalities, all powers, all thrones, all dominions. and every name that shall ever be named in this present age and in the age to come and put all things under his feet. Jesus has been raised to the position of honor at the right hand of the Father where God’s mighty power has not only subdued death, Paul says, but it has subdued all of his adversaries, every demonic spirit, Satan, him very self, every earthly potentate that is, and shall come to power i don’t care looking back in history alexander the great every conqueror on down the line they have been put under the feet or the control of jesus whenever you see the terminology under the foot or under the heel that means the total and absolute conquering and subjugating of the person that’s under the heel. And the first promise that everything would be put under the heel of Jesus was given to our mother Eve in the garden in Genesis 3, 15, after man had been deceived and sinned and fell, and was other condemnation, then the mercy and the grace of our great God was manifested when he told the woman, I am going to give you a seed. I am going to give you an offspring. I am going to give you the son. Oh, the son of all generations. And that son is going to come. I’m going to put enmity. I’m going to put a war, I’m going to put a hatred and a variance between him and between Satan and And ultimately, on Calvary and Golgotha’s hill, he shall utterly take his heel and utterly come down on the head of the devil right at his source and power and utterly destroy him. Oh, he will be bruised. in that destroying him on Calvary. But oh, the devil will be totally destroyed and not only conquered, but vanquished. For when Jesus was going to Calvary, he said, now is the judgment of this world. Now. shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men unto me. And he was talking about the world and its power is finished. and the devil and all of his authority to keep men in his prison house and under his the power and dominion and his place of dominion it is finished and when jesus knew on the cross that all of the scriptures were fulfilled then he said it is finished but you know in the greek the third person is he or she or it And you have to govern by the context whether it’s he, she, or it. And I kind of like to make it this way. When it was all the scriptures were fulfilled, then Jesus said, he is finished. The devil is finished. And I don’t know about you, but as far as my life is concerned, the devil is finished in it. I am not going to give no place to the devil. The only way the devil can get back in, I have to give him a place. And I’m not going to give him a place. And when he tries to come around and get a place, I’m going to resist the devil. And if I resist the devil, he will flee me. Amen. because just like God has raised Jesus up not only from the dead but raised him up far above all the principalities and powers and thrones and dominions and every name that shall ever be named and put him at the right hand of his own self in the place of honor and power and has delegated all things into his hands for the Bible said in John 333 the father love of the son and have given all things into his hands and Jesus must rule yea until he has put all enemies under his feet and the last enemy that shall be put down is death but the devil has already been put down and sin has already been put down and powers and dominions and every authority has been put down under the feet of Jesus and in his revelation to the church about the body of Christ Jesus. revealed that he was the head but we are the body we are his feet so there raised with Jesus and seated with Jesus and in Jesus hid with Jesus in Christ in God God Almighty has become as it were the servant of Jesus for he said sit at my right hand until I make all of our enemies thy footstool and there at the right hand of the Father. The Father is placing all of our enemies under our feet, if you please. Hallelujah! I’m not gonna let my heart be troubled. I’m not gonna let fear come into my life. I have nothing to be afraid of, for where I dwell And where I’m living, there is nothing to fear there. John the beloved said in his letter, he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God. For God is love. We are in the dwelling place of God. We are in God’s house. And in God’s house, there’s nothing to be afraid of. you know in your house you might have poisons household products and you need to put them up out of the way so the children do not get to them and they have safety caps that you can’t open but all in my father’s house we don’t have to have mr. yucky stickers on saying warning it’s poison yucky We don’t have to have safety caps on. Because in my Father’s house, where we’re dwelling as a child of God, there’s no poisons there. There’s no devils there. There’s no sin there. There’s no devil there. How many say amen? There’s only righteousness there. There’s only peace there. There’s only joy there. No wonder the songwriter said, come on and go with me to my Father’s house. Be no sorrow there. Amen. in my father’s house in my father’s house in my father’s house be no sorrow there in my father’s house there’s only peace peace peace hey sinner come on and go with me No, you want me to sing. I’m going to preach here. Praise God. We’ll sing tonight. Come back tonight. We’ll have a lot of singing. I’m preaching now. Nothing to be afraid of. I’m not going to let my heart be troubled. Hey, Christian, quit being afraid. Quit being shook up. You have no ground to be shook up. Don’t you let your heart be troubled. Don’t you let it be afraid. The antidote for fear is faith. Just believe. Jesus said, you that believe in God, believe also in me. How many say amen? Just believe in me. I got all power in heaven and in earth. Give him a good clap, Austin. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
