JOHN 6:63
(KJV)
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
(Dale)
the spirit is the source of real life; mere human nature by itself gets nowhere. My words, all I have said to you – are full of God's power and they are the secret of real life
(Schoenfield)
the spirit is the life - giving agency, the physical counts for nothing
(Jordan)
Listen, it is the spirit that makes a man alive; the body does nothing for him. It is spirit and life that I've been talking to you about
(Wade)
it is the spirit that creates true Life; mere flesh is of no avail. The words that I have spoken to you are Spiritual in their meaning and Life-giving in their effects
(The Message)
The Spirit can make life. Sheer muscle and willpower don't make anything happen. Every word I've spoken to you is a Spirit-word, and so it is life-making

"Every word I've spoken to you is a spirit-word"! This is what Jesus Himself said, of Himself. Every word He spoke was making up a language which in turn was creating life in us, "it is the spirit that creates true Life". A language of His Life. Isn't that what words do.

They form a language? Isn't that exactly what we have been learning here? That was the intention of God to impart to us, through Him, the language of Himself so we could ultimately know Him and give Him all the praise, honor and glory for it.

It is the process of metamorphosis in its purest form. Meditating in the word of God we are changed through this process to be as He is, think as He thinks, and do as He does.

THE LANGUAGE OF GOD? "THE PROMISED LAND" FLOWING WITH MILK AND HONEY!

"Every word I've spoken to you is a spirit-word". "The Spirit can make life". Each and every word is just part of the whole.

What I have spoken to you is Spirit and its substance is Life, real GodLife. Each word carries with it the same effect, the same substance, giving us Himself, His life.

"Building a language for you to know and understand, to realize and comprehend, exactly who I am and what I am. The One true Living God comes speaking and ever speaking to you."

"So when you hear, you will know, and when you know, you will grow, and as you grow, you will see, and as you see, I will appear in full glory, full of righteousness and honor!"

"Each and every word is revealing to you who I am and what I have done for you. Come, learn of me, my yoke is easy and my burden is light. I am the One who is teaching you, leading you, guiding you, into all the truth, as I AM! Word upon word, precept upon precept, sentence upon sentence, here a little bit and there a little bit, eventually a whole language is formed and the knowledge of Me is complete."

"Then you will see Me, you will be like Me! You won't be like Me because I arrive; you will be why I AM here. As you have received and grown in the grace and knowledge of My Father God, so continue on, along this line and you will eventually be made full with My fullness. You will eventually experience My Life and all of My Life, all of the Life I have freely given to you. So come, come and drink of the Water of Life, come and eat of the Bread of Life, come taste and see that I AM good and worthy to be praised!"

Well, sometimes God will just come in, sit down and make His place in our hearts, Amen? He has been known to do that, and even more so, now, as the final hour approaches. Let us come to Him, to receive of His living Word, as He has said. "Word upon Word, precept upon precept, sentence upon sentence, here a little bit, there a little bit." Learning the alphabet as He teaches us, as He is ever revealing Himself to us, as His Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth is guiding us into all the truth.

The full language of God withholding nothing from us so we can know -> so we can see -> so we can experience all that is before us. "The Promised Land Flowing with Milk and Honey" -> life and life more abundantly in Christ Jesus.

His life being poured forth for us to know, for us to understand, all the things freely given to us in this place of rest, this place of peace. Every word a living sacrifice of who He is and what He has done through the giving of His one and only Son on the cross.
