If we are the children of God who are called to be HOLY and to be the Righteousness of Jesus Christ, then should we not be bearing fruit of righteousness? Should we not bear fruit of Holiness? Should we not bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit?
How can we do what the wicked does and say we are righteous? How can we continue to live in sin, disobedience, and commit spiritual adultery and say we are a Holy people unto HIM? Should the righteous not do what righteousness suppose to do? Shouldn't it be reflected in our lives and our actions who we profess to be? We are not to bear the fruits of self righteousness but His Righteousness through Jesus Christ to testify who we are. We are HIS.
1 John 2:29 If you know (perceive and are sure) that He [Christ] is [absolutely] righteous [conforming to the Father's will in purpose, thought, and action], you may also know (be sure) that everyone who does righteously [and is therefore in like manner conformed to the divine will] is born (begotten) of Him [ God].
1 John 3:10 By this it is made clear who take their nature from God and are His children and who take their nature from the devil and are his children: no one who does not practice righteousness [who does not conform to God's will in purpose, thought, and action] is of God; neither is anyone who does not love his brother (his fellow believer in Christ).
Revelation 22:11 He who is unrighteous (unjust, wicked), let him be unrighteous still; and he who is filthy (vile, impure), let him be filthy still; and he who is righteous (just, upright, in right standing with God), let him do right still; and he who is holy, let him be holy still.
2 Peter 2:20-21(AMP) For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through [the full, personal] knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they again become entangled in them and are overcome, their last condition is worse [for them] than the first.21For never to have obtained a [full, personal] knowledge of the way of righteousness would have been better for them than, having obtained [such knowledge], to turn back from the holy commandment which was [verbally] delivered to them.
If we say we are His then how can we be contrary to the things of God? Can the wicked be contrary to what is wicked? How can a bad tree bear good fruit and how can a good tree bear bad fruit?
Seek the Lord with FULL Surrender. Seek His Full counsel and know He is GOD! Oh, how we should pray so we may never hear the words, "I never knew you!" For such are His people who prophesied, they cast demons out, and they have done mighty things in His Name but acted wickedly disregarding His commands. They called HIM, "Lord! Lord!"
But you see, they did not know HIM intimately even though His gifts were given to them by His Grace to intimately draw them to HIM. The gifts were to be used for His Glory and not for themselves. He is really saying to them...."I never intimately knew you!" The word "knew" is the same as Adam knew Eve as his wife. It is the knowing of a husband to his wife on a intimate level. It is a level of consummation.
May we return to the biblical Fear of God as His return draws near. In these days when so many are being led astray, Will He find faith when He returns? Ask HIM to reveal HIS Truth to you. Ask HIM to put you in agreement with you! Ask HIM to deliver you from the temptations of evil! Ask HIM to help you so you do not become corrupted, deceived, or fall away. Cling on to HIM for dear life beloved brethren for deception is so rampant today. Lord, have mercy on your people!!!!
Fire of God!

Matthew 6:33 (AMP) But seek ([a]aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things [c]taken together will be given you besides.
