DESCRIPTION: One should begin to question the state of the church when it is lacking a concrete idea of what God is getting ready to do. Instead, it has become self-absorbed preaching a gospel that encourages individuals to live for today, to become better individuals, and to expect blessings that are right around the corner. The argument is; how could we be the seed of Abraham when his vision was not short sighted but he saw afar off, so much so that he saw another day? It was the far off vision of Abraham that made the church of Our Lord Jesus Christ inheritors of the Promise and it was that same vision that God counted unto him for righteousness. Obviously, righteousness in the realm of the Spirit of God and seeing afar off are linked together. Prophet Michael Petro unveils this very concept in this teaching using the revelation of "muzzling of an ox" and "train up a child" as a springboard to dive into Peter's second epistle to the church. Throughout the teaching, we clearly see how God feels about those who are short sighted through Peter's vocabulary using the Greek. The early apostle is adamant about the people of God moving on toward perfection, growing and abounding in the very nature of God, and proclaims people who teach anything contrary to the perfecting work of the saints are devoid of the truth, spreading heresy and filth.
