Summary
What if salvation was always about arriving somewhere, not just escaping something? Graham Cooke makes the case that we are saved to the very nature of God — into love, peace, mercy, and joy — and that his love for us has never once changed in measure since the moment we were saved. What grows is simply our capacity to receive what has always been fully ours.Key Scriptures:+ 2 Corinthians 5:17. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."+ 2 Peter 1:4. "...by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature..."+ Galatians 5:22-23. "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control..."+ John 15:4-5. "Abide in me, and I in you...I am the vine; you are the branches."+ John 5:19. "The Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing..."As always, thanks for listening! ❤️--Want to explore more?📚 Browse Graham Cooke’s books and teachings: https://www.brilliantbookhouse.com🌍 Discover the movement experiencing God’s love every day: https://brilliantmovement.com/

| 0:09.0 | Hello friends, welcome back to the Brilliant Perspectives podcast. |
| 0:13.0 | We spend a lot of time thinking about what we've been saved from, the guilt, the shame, the old patterns, |
| 0:19.0 | but Graham wants to turn that around today and ask a different |
| 0:21.6 | question, what have we been saved into? Today we're exploring what it means to be carried into |
| 0:27.5 | the nature of God himself. His love, his peace, his patience. Graham paints a picture of Jesus |
| 0:33.2 | as a man endlessly fascinated by the Father and shows us that this same place of fascination |
| 0:39.0 | has been set aside for each of us. If you've ever wondered whether God's love for you could |
| 0:44.0 | possibly be as complete as it sounds, this one is for you. Let's jump in with Graham. |
| 0:52.3 | So his consistency is my predictability. To make us in his image, he has to make us |
| 1:02.3 | unchanging. Our yes is yes. That when we give our word, we commit ourselves to that word. |
| 1:10.2 | We're unchanging. That we're learning to be ourselves to that word. We're unchanging. |
| 1:11.8 | That we're learning to be gracious at the time. |
| 1:14.5 | We're learning to be kind and merciful and funny. |
| 1:19.1 | Because God is joyful. |
| 1:21.3 | That means he's funny. |
| 1:23.5 | If God's making you in his image, that means you'll have to learn to laugh like he laughs, |
| 1:29.7 | smile like he smiles, and grin at things that outside of him would make you cry. |
| 1:36.5 | But when he grins at stuff, it has a way of rolling over and playing dead. |
| 1:42.0 | What am I saying? |
