849 God’s Promises to Those Who Have Been Perfected
I
Those that God intends to perfect
will all receive His blessings and His inheritance.
That is, they take in what God has and is
so that it becomes what they have within;
they have all the words of God wrought into them;
whatever God is, you are able to take it all in exactly as is,
and thereby live out the truth.
This is the kind of person who’s perfected by God,
and this is the kind of person who is gained by God.
Only someone such as this
is eligible to receive the blessings bestowed by God.
Only someone such as this

and excitement at all times throughout life,
as if one has beheld the arrival of the day of God’s glory.

that is, a beloved son of God.
