If you are divorced and have been saved, the blood of Jesus has washed your sins away and you are clean. None of your sins or divorce are held against you. They no longer exist. In this study, and when studying the Bible, always check to understand what covenant is in place where you are. Be blessed, and remember your sins are gone, no more, not covered by the blood of lambs and goats but washed by the blood of Jesus.

PREFACE

This is not a book that you can read and understand it. It is a deeper study and must be prayed about and illuminated by the Holy Spirit. I have not written this to be a best seller but to inform and so it can be used as a learning tool for those interested in going deeper with the Lord. I don’t really know why it is important to be written but maybe it is for only one person. Remember—if it makes sense, it doesn’t usually make faith. I cannot give you the revelation, but I can say you must have revelation to understand the new covenant. I pray you will get all God has meant for you to have and at the same time get understanding. May God bless you as you read and study.

CHAPTER 1

Moving from Glory to Glory

From beginning to end, how do I grow and mature in the Lord? I was told that once I grew up, I’d have to be grown for the rest of my life, so I decided I’d wait to grow up. Your body can age, get tall, or grow fat, but maturing is a choice.

Have you ever seen old men wearing crazy stuff that doesn’t fit their age? Old ladies do the same thing. It looks silly but is so sad. Either they’ve learned nothing about style, want to stand out, or don’t care. What is appropriate for the young is not always good for the old. Maturing in Christ is another choice. Before I came back to the Lord, I believed we had a fifty-fifty chance of making the right choice or decision, but that is simply not true. The choices are not fifty-fifty—they are more like six to one in favor of missing the mark.

For example, standing in the middle of a one-lane road with a truck coming, we may choose to do nothing, take a step back, step to the left, step to the right, step forward, or get out of the road. Five choices will get us run over. Only if we make the right choice—get out of the road—will we escape injury.

You have one choice.

So it is with the Word of God. We have a choice to believe it, read it, do it. But others we are listening to—including preachers or church leaders—may be wrong. The responsibility is on us—not them, us. I have nothing against ministers, but we need to study up. We
