Ryan Rufus on Mortifying Sin

From the recent "Glory and Grace Conference" in the Philippines;

"To say that focusing on your past sin helps you to fight temptation is a lie from the pit of hell. What right to we have to focus on sin that God has declared He will not remember? Focusing on your past sin will simply cause an increase in the law in your life, and resulting in further sin and self-righteousness - guilt and pride".

Ryan Rufus on Asking Forgiveness for Sin

"As a New Covenant born again believer, to now go and ask forgiveness after you have sinned - is a sin. It is the sin of unbelief. You don't believe in the finished work of the Cross. You are trying to do something and don't realise it is already done!".

Ryan Rufus on God's Master Plan - Relationship!

"God’s grand master plan is that He would have and create a people that would not relate to Him and have relationship with Him on the basis of their righteousness but He would create a people that would relate to God and have relationship with God on the basis of Christ’s righteousness".

Ryan Rufus on God's Master Plan

"What is God’s grand master plan? To have a people clothed in His righteousness. His people – with revelation so that they can come before Him in perfect standing based on what He has done in His glory and His pleasure".

Ryan Rufus on Position vs Practice

"We don't preach obedience, we don't preach holiness, we don't preach performance - we preach position in Christ because as you have a revelation of that righteousness will flow from your spirit, obedience will flow from your spirit, holiness will flow from your spirit".

Ryan Rufus on Demons Manifesting

"I know this that demons hate the anointing and often are agitated and begin to surface when they come into contact with anointing and glory. Numbers of times in our meeting demons have manifested just because of the atmosphere of God in the place- they can't handle it!"

Ryan Rufus on Reigning in Life

"Now to reign in life is to know that you are right with God. It's to know that He is happy with you, approving of you and pleased with you ... It's too know that His love is towards you constantly and His favour on you. To reign in life is to live totally free from crippling guilt and condemnation with an awareness of your absolute right standing before God that can never change".

Ryan Rufus on How Sanctification Happens

"Sanctification is where your earthly condition starts to become more and more like your heavenly position - the means of this happening is not by willpower or self-effort or through the Law but through regular transforming encounters with the God of glory".

Ryan Rufus on What Sanctification Is

Ryan Rufus on Methods of Sanctification

"People are trying to use something we are no longer under - the law - to restrain something that we no longer have - our sinful nature".

Ryan Rufus on Sanctification as Want To

"Sanctification is not a 'have to', it's an overflow of what has already taken place inside of you. Take off the have tos and the want tos will arise...

Take the have tos off the body of Christ and you will discover that all the want tos that got put in at the point of salvation will start to come out."

Ryan Rufus - Sanctification by Grace - City Church International - 30 March 2008.

Ryan Rufus on Law and Sanctification

"A lot of sanctification teaching today is people trying to use something we're no longer under to restrain something that we no longer have. People are trying to use the law that we're no longer under to try to restrain the sinful nature that we no longer have."
