We must guard the simplicity that is in Christ: from the gospel massage to the rest of the massages in the Holy Scriptures, it is simplicity that is throughout the whole Bible, revelation is in simplicity, Word Revelation is in simplicity, all things in the Holy Scriptures is in simplicity. The application of the Word is in simplicity. There is a river of simplicity coming to the Body of Christ around the world; simplicity is a key. –(2 Cor. 11:1-4)

It is human wisdom and religion that will try to corrupt the simplicity that is in Christ. Let is return to the simplicity that is in Christ, the simplicity of Christ, let us return, and no longer allow others to bewitched the truth that is in our hearts, that is written upon our hearts by the Holy Spirit. –(Gal. 3:1-9)

No longer be heavy laden, burden down by the human wisdom of religion, cast it off, cut it of from you, and come to Christ and His simplicity and He will give you rest, take upon His yoke and learn from Him through the Holy Spirit who dwells in our hearts by faith, the Lord is gentle and lowly in heart, and you will fine rest for your soul, His yoke is easy, and His burden is light, this is the simplicity of Christ. –(Matt. 11:28-30)

Understand the simplicity of Christ: grace and truth, grace first then truth, understand the simplicity of Christ, the words that He said are Spirit and life, understand the simplicity of Christ worship the Father in Spirit and truth, understand the simplicity of Christ obey the truth by faith, and understand the simplicity of Christ speaking the truth in love. –(Jn. 1:14, 6:63, 4:23-24, Gal. 3:1-9, Eph. 4:15)

From milk teaching to meat teaching it is both simplicity in Christ, milk teaching is simplicity and meat teaching is simplicity. You grow in Christ as a babe with simplicity, and you grow as mature with simplicity. –(Heb. 5:12-14, 1 Pet. 2:1-3, 1 Cor. 1 Cor. 3:1-3, 2 Pet. 3:18)

You grow in Christ through grace and knowledge, not just knowledge alone, you need grace and knowledge to grow, and this is simplicity. –(Col. 2:6-8, 2 Pet. 3:18)

The simplicity of the gospel massage is: Believe in Christ, repent, ask for forgiveness, ask Christ into your life, and then obey and follow Him for the rest of your life, and fellowship with other believers in Christ, this is simplicity. –(Rom. 10:9-10)

Works does not save us, the Law does not save us, going to church does not save us, being good or doing good deeds does not save us, we are not saved through baptism, instead we are only saved by grace through faith, and this is simplicity. –(Eph. 2:8-9)

We obey and follow Christ out of love for Him and His Word; we obey Him and follow Him by faith and grace in Christ. We apply the Word, we live the application of the Word by faith through grace, out of love for Him, and this is simplicity. –(Col. 3:17)

We are to fellowship with other believers, yes be faithful in the fellowship of believers, hear and apply the Word that the servants of the Lord teach and preach.

We are to enter into rest, we are to live for Christ in rest, we are to obey Christ in rest, we are to apply the Word in rest, and throughout our life we are to live in His rest. Rest through faith and trust this is simplicity. –(Heb. 3:19, 4:10)

Father we pray for a pure river of the simplicity of Christ to flow throughout the Body of Christ around the world, to flow through all the hearts of the believers, bring freedom, bring grace, bring truth, bring faith, bring the Spirit, and bring love to all believers in Christ. We pray in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ amen. –(2 Cor. 11:2-3)
