In John 6:65b from the Mirror Translation JESUS says, “…believe in ME…see yourself mirrored in Me. You don’t need to fake your faith. It’s THE FATHER’S gift to you!”. GOD’S GIFT TO US IS TO BE MIRRORED IN CHRIST JESUS, WHICH IS OUR SAVIOR-IDENTITY.
“CULTIVATE YOUR OWN RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, BUT DON’T IMPOSE IT ON OTHERS. YOU’RE FORTUNATE IF YOUR BEHAVIOR AND YOUR BELIEF ARE COHERENT. BUT IF YOU’RE NOT SURE, IF YOU NOTICE THAT YOU ARE ACTING IN WAYS INCONSISTENT WITH WHAT YOU BELIEVE—SOME DAYS TRYING TO IMPOSE YOUR OPINIONS ON OTHERS, OTHER DAYS JUST TRYING TO PLEASE THEM—THEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU’RE OUT OF LINE. IF THE WAY YOU LIVE ISN’T CONSISTENT WITH WHAT YOU BELIEVE, THEN IT’S WRONG”.
