Romans 7:14-25
“For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.”
Here Paul is stating, to begin with, that God’s ‘law’ is his ‘conduct spiritually,’ and yet, man is ‘under the sin curse’ (which is satans ‘law,’ that we ‘fall under’) until we come out from it, and into *Life Eternal– Jesus Christ, our Lord.
15 “For that which I do (want to be), I allow not:
and what I would (want to do/be)...
that… I do not (do);
but (instead, I do) what I hate…
– that, I do.”
Ah, the struggle with ‘but I don’t want to keep doing this, being this person, but what I want to be or do, is not what I end up doing:’ weakness.
Yes, our ‘flesh/carnal nature,’ our ‘base animal instinct’ is FALLEN, and must be OVERRULED by God, ‘his Holy Spirit,’ AND BY– your WILL being RELINQUISHED BACK TO GOD– in EXCHANGE for –HIS.
That is the ONLY WAY YOU ARE VICTORIOUS; the ‘carnal nature’ and living for all those ‘desires,’ leads us to hell, here and now– in the Soul Realm.
(later–after dirt-death, it leads to Hell literal–which is in ‘spirit’-realm)
16 “If then I do that which I would not (desire in spirit to do),
I consent –to the law, that– it is good.”
Paul is stating here that ‘if we do what we know we shouldn’t/and don’t want to be doing (which is sin),’ we are actually saying…
‘It is GOOD, ‘God’s way,’ –his Law, that states CONSENTING TO EVIL LUSTFUL ‘fleshly desire’– is ‘good.’
(uhhhh…nope, that’s not Holy or True.)
Because then we are ‘claiming’ one thing about God’s CONDUCT, with our ‘lips/understanding,’ but ‘live another truth within,’ God calls this: Hypocrisy/Apostate.
17 “Now then, it is no longer I that does it, but sin that dwells in me.”
He’s pretty clear here, ‘it’s the sin nature of my flesh at work,’ he declares; sin–dwells in the ‘carnal’ DESIRES, and FULFILLING THE LUSTS THEREOF. (your fancy and wims)
It is the OPPOSITE of ‘living Spiritually,’ which means– FOR GOD.
Yep, that’s where he’s heading with this; it’s why we cannot seem to be ‘at peace,’ INSIDE.
Because we have CHOSEN to ‘forgo’ INTERNAL SALVATION –when we continually choose to ‘not conform’ to God’s image, ‘inside;’
it is REJECTING THE HOLY SPIRIT and HIS WORKMANSHIP.
We do remember that’s how we become ‘his workmanship’ –unto Salvation, right??
We ‘sold-out’ –our lives –to him, when we accepted him, his rule over us, his conforming us to his image, his leadership, his laws and conduct, statutes and presidents, in his Kingdom.
‘We were BOUGHT WITH HIS PRICE.’
What was that ‘price??’
CONFORMITY–CONVERSION–BORN AGAIN/ANEW in ‘Spirit’...
LEAVING THE ‘carnality,’ and LIVING IN IT–BEHIND, DEAD– with the Ole Man nature.
The Ole Man Nature was ‘NAILED TO THE CROSS,’ if it was done right (Salvation.)
Your Ole Man, if you are ‘truly’ Born Again– died, long ago…
And you –BECAME –‘Jesus’ in his CONDUCT, MORALS, ETHICS, THINKING, WISDOM, ACTIONS, EXAMPLE, ‘person.’
If ‘this’ did NOT TAKE PLACE, then you ‘received KNOWLEDGE’ of Christ Jesus, and of his sacrifice and reconciliation ‘OFFER’...
But…
YOU DID NOT ‘RECEIVE CHRIST,’ just –the ‘knowledge of him.’
(that saves no one–knowledge alone)
CONVERSION, CONFORMATION, TRANSFORMATION, ‘Born Anew’ …
MUST TAKE PLACE, for that ‘is’ –the Salvation of the ‘dead spirit,’ unto LIFE and LIFE EVERLASTING!
Your ‘spirit’ is DEAD–when living in ‘carnality.’
So, those living ‘carnally’ NOW, are ‘dead’ in their spirit and tresspasses against–The Holy Spirit of God.
Holy Spirit ‘in you,’ is what/who SAVES YOUR SOULS.
18 “For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwells no good thing: for to will (desire spiritually)–is present with me; but how to perform that which is good –I find not.”
Paul is stating that whilst living ‘in the flesh,’ there lives no good thing, and currently–he says,
“I WANT TO DO RIGHT unto God,
but HOW DO I DO THAT which is ‘good’ ???
Because I CANNOT FIND THE SUCCESSFUL ‘way’ to PERFORM– *Holiness.”
19 “For the good that I want to do– I do not do: but the evil– which I would not (want to do), that (is what) I do.”
Exactly– carnality.
20 “Now if I do that (in which) I would not (spiritually desire to do), it is no more I that does it, but (the) sin that dwells in me.”
This is actually a very important verse and point/premise Paul is making; he is stating that SIN IS WORKING AGAINST ‘spirit,’ and SIN ‘lives,’ location wise, IN THE ‘carnal.’
That’s GOOD TO KNOW, now people can understand that WITHOUT THE DEATH of the ‘carnal nature’s RULE’ in our lives…
We PERISH–and this is why: it’s at ‘enmity’ against God–himself–
for God is SPIRIT– NOT CARNAL LIVING.
21 “I find then a law (at work) that– when I would (desire to) do good– evil is present with me.”
Yeppers, he just said ‘evil’ is present with us, around us, in us, working on us, when we ‘desire to spiritually (spirit-inner man) do holiness, God’s ‘way,’ but…
THERE’S A LAW (rule/truth) and it, ‘SIN– IS TEMPTING and WORKING AGAINST ME ‘spiritually,’ to WANT ME…
TO CAUSE ME…
To ‘err’ with God…
GET ME ‘off track’...
OUT OF GOOD RELATION…
DISTRACTED…
DISOBEDIENT
REBELLIOUS to HIM and HIS ‘way’...
And be: ‘led to perdition.’
All from– the ‘workings’ of SIN– ALLOWING OURSELVES to ‘live-out’ OF OUR ‘sin nature:’ CARNALITY–in self pursuits and desires…
‘at the EXPENSE of’ –Christ Jesus (and his life sacrifice) Father God, *The Lost (not yet saved), and definitely, his Holy Spirit…
And, at the expense of –our ETERNAL DESTINATION and ‘family’ we will ‘find ourselves with.’
22 “For I delight in the law of God –after the inward man:”
23 “But –I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin –which is in my members.
Members– body parts; again sin is mentioned with ‘where it lives:’ BODY FLESH/CARNAL NATURE.
(and it’s desires/self-will expressed)
24 “Oh wretched man that I am!
Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?”
25 “I thank God –through Jesus Christ our Lord.
So then, with the mind, I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh –the law of sin.”
Why when people live ‘carnal lives’ do we perish (die)??
Romans 8:7-10
“Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: because it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 So then, they that are in the flesh –cannot please God.
9 But ‘you,’ are not in the flesh, but in –the Spirit, if it be –that the Spirit of God dwells in you.
Now if any man has not the Spirit of Christ– he is not of him.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead –because of sin; but –the Spirit is life –because of righteousness.”
(because of HOLINESS–we HAVE *LIFE)
Why does God say that to live ‘carnally’ is death, but to live ‘spirit,’ is Life and Peace??
Because when you live to fulfill the ‘Lusts of the Flesh,’ by default –you RELINQUISH the ‘Benefits (or blessings) of the Spirit;’ it’s a TRADE OFF.
Galatians 5:16 “This I say then, ‘Walk in the Spirit,’ and you will not fulfill– the lust of the flesh.”
Why??
What did he say again, ‘you cannot serve mammon and God, for you will CLEAVE TO the one, and HATE the other,’ or truly ‘forsake’ the other.
Matthew 6:24
“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else, he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve (two masters) –God and mammon.”
MAMMON– late Middle English: via late Latin from New Testament Greek mamōnas (Matt. 6:24, Luke 16:9–13), from Aramaic māmōn ‘riches’.
“The word was taken by medieval writers as the name of the devil of covetousness, and revived in this sense by Milton.”
SELF SERVING DESIRES–
(our own will, not bought by Christ and his Sacrifice)
Is LIVING IN
– the name of –
The Devil of COVETOUSNESS– satan –
The self serving ‘god.’
Do not forget, scripture calls us ‘little gods’ too.
Psalm 82
“God stands in the congregation of the mighty (angelic/host/all spirit beings); he judges among ‘the gods.’
2 How long will you judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked?
Selah.
3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
(command to do it–disobedience if not)
4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
(command to do it–disobedience if not)
5 They do not know, neither will they understand; THEY WALK ON IN DARKNESS: ALL THE ‘foundations’– of the earth –are
OUT OF COURSE.
(outta line- out of order– perverted– twisted– off course–TO HOLINESS)
6 I have said, You are gods; and all of you are children of ‘The Most High.’
7 But you shall die like all men, and fall– like one of the princes.
8 Arise, Oh God, JUDGE THE EARTH: for YOU SHALL INHERIT ALL NATIONS.” (all nations = all people)
He is stating that by his ‘design,’ LOYALTY MATTERS, SUBMISSION TO HIS RULE– MATTERS, and becoming a ‘self-god’ –MATTERS.
He will not ‘rule’ in a vessel of COMPROMISE; he WILL NOT HANG WITH SATAN and SELFISHNESS–he’s SELF-SACRIFICIAL.
That would be living in someone, that DISAGREES with the ‘WAY’ God ‘sees’ and LIVES– LIFE: two differing ‘spirits’ at play.
To ‘live unto the flesh,’ means to FILL ONE’S SELF with WHATEVER ONE ‘desires,’ REGARDLESS of God’s Opinion, Leading, Commanding or Desire: One’s Desires or WILL, becomes ‘more important’ than –GOD.
So, the ‘kingdom’ chosen– is satan’s, not God’s, in those that REFUSE to relinquish ‘self-leadership:’ Carnal Living.
The ‘Carnal’ –do not make it to heaven for they ‘gave nothing up’ –for God; they ‘reformed’ not inside, no CONVERSION was ‘undertaken.’
1 Corinthians 3:1-3
“And I, brethren, could not speak to you as unto spiritual (living folk), but as to carnal (living people), as unto babies in Christ.
2 I fed you with milk, and not with meat: because you were not able to bear it, neither are you able even now.
3 For you are yet carnal: where there is among you –envying, strife, and divisions…
Are you not carnal, walking as men???”
Paul states He cannot even teach them spiritual things of a ‘meaty’ stature– BIG TRUTHS and HARD TRUTHS, because…
These folk wouldn’t even mature from off of the MILK OF THE WORD (elementary level understanding and wisdom of the Lord– relationally), to RECEIVE THE ‘meat’ OF THE WORD. (revelatory intimacy)
The stuff that would PROPEL THEM INTO THE HEAVENS with God–Relationally, bringing VICTORY and SALVATION to ‘others’ –if they would ‘live it.’
But to do so requires one to take one's LIFE–
’SERIOUSLY;’ but ‘carnal living’ says ‘PARTY IT UP, EAT, DRINK and BE MERRY, THE FLOOD OF JUST HARVEST SOWED– IS NOT COMING!’
This leads the ‘broad-pathers’ –to DESTRUCTION.
2 Corinthians 10:4
4 “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but (our weapons are) mighty– through God –to the pulling down of strong holds;”
We cannot win living from the ‘carnal nature–’ base flesh animal, errored, sinful nature–
because we would not have…
THE ANGELIC, and GOD’S ARMY HOST of HEAVEN, to ‘fight on our behalf,’ to and for those THAT WILL INHERIT THE KINGDOM with God, becoming his ‘heirs’...
FOR THEY ARE…
–THE MIGHTY WEAPONS–
THAT TEAR DOWN DEMONIC STRONGHOLDS; and they are ‘spirit,’ and CANNOT BE UTILIZED (angels and the army host) if we are not ‘living’ Spiritually Holy (with God), and have ‘COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM’ –
the ‘carnal living’ unto– the Sin Nature, satan’s ‘way.’
Hebrews 7:14-16
“For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Judah; of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning– priesthood.
15 And it is yet (it is) far more evident: that after the similitude of Melchisedec –there arises another priest, (christ)
16 Who is made not after the law of a carnal commandment, but of the power of an endless (and holy) life.”
Hebrews 9
1 “The first covenant also had ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary…
but…
8 The Holy Ghost is signifying– that the way into the holiest of all –was not yet made manifest, while the first tabernacle was yet standing:”
(referencing the coming of YaH’shua the Messiah, New Covenant, New and FINAL SACRIFICE unto–Life Eternal– IN HIM.)
9 “... in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect (whole/restored/redeemed), as pertaining to –the conscience;
This person of the ‘old covenant way,’ cannot be perfected in ‘Life’ –to HIS CONSCIENCE– his inside man; because, only IN CHRIST JESUS, YaH’shua Messiah does one ENTER–
Eternal Life: He IS *Life.
10 “Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them– until –
the Time of *REFORMATION.”
He is stating that in the ‘old covenant way’ within the Law of Ordinances and fleshly ‘doings,’ that were ‘imposed upon them’ …
they were ONLY DOING THOSE ‘ways’ UNTIL– CHRIST CAME, DIED, and RESURRECTED, GLORIFIED– IN HIS BODY– to ‘make the way’ for us ALL to ‘come home to him–’ INSIDE, again.
For ‘coming home to him on the INSIDE, NOW,’ is ‘how’ –you COME HOME TO HIM, in Heaven–where he dwells and abides ‘as a Spirit being,’ LATER, after dirt-realm living.
11 “But Christ– becoming ‘THE HIGH PRIEST– of GOOD THINGS to COME,’ by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands– that is to say– not of THIS BUILDING;
He is stating that Christ Jesus, BECAME our ‘High’ Priest (ruling, highest ranking leader of HOLINESS and THE RIGHT WAY) of ‘GOOD THINGS TO COME,’
by…
A BETTER ‘tabernacle.’
One NOT OF THE CONSTRUCTION ‘of hands,’ which is to say ‘flesh/clay-mation,’ DIRT-ANIMATED-being…
But one of ‘SPIRIT’ *Construction or *Building.
(Tabernacle– communion place for him to converse and raise us up inside–tabernacle-church, vessel…
WE ARE THE CHURCH– our hearts/inner man– INSIDE now, for the KINGDOM OF GOD– is WITHIN.)
12 “Neither by the blood of goats or calves (does he redeem us), but by his own blood he entered in once, into the holy place, and OBTAINED eternal redemption –for us.”
(Hebrews 9 cont.)
14 “How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit, offered himself without spot –to God, purge your conscience –from dead works to serve the living God??”
15 “For this cause –he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions –that were under the first testament, that they which are called –might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.”
MEDIATOR– a person who attempts to make people involved in a conflict –come to an agreement; a go-between. (legal position, court)
HE IS LEGALLY ADVOCATING FOR US, with his blood/covenant/bond/loyalty/holy Spirit, in COURT–against THE ACCUSER of us–satan.
God–Jesus-JUSTUS, is OUR LAWYER AGAINST SATAN and his attempt to be a prosecuting lawyer against us, by use of…
THE EVIDENCES HE PRESENTS OF THE ‘sins’ WE ARE ‘currently still committing willfully,’ before our Lord, THE HIGH PRIEST OF HOLINESS,
Who…
– Is ATTEMPTING TO –KEEP OUR ‘record’ CLEAN, *SANCTIFIED, ‘blameless’ –THROUGH HIMSELF, his name sake (reputation) of holiness.
((See why we ‘need to obey him AND his way’ now??))
WITHOUT US ‘being in him,’ WE ARE CORRUPT, IN LEGAL DETRIMENTAL STANDING in court– against satan– who’s been at this ‘legalist’ thing for some ‘while’ now.
(And remember, Paul said– we are babies in Christ if ‘carnal living,’ which means– WE GOT NO CHANCE TO DEFEND OURSELVES against and ETERNAL BEING that has been ‘livin’ CORRUPT– looooong since BEFORE WE EXISTED. Living ‘in’ Christ ((the creator)), is the ONLY WAY YOU MAKE IT.)
We WILL FAIL, AND DIE, IF WE DO NOT ‘remain’ (remnant= remaining ones) IN CHRIST; he’s our ONLY DEFENSE– his HOLY SPIRIT residing and abiding in us…
CONFORMING US INTO HIS IMAGE INSIDE, so that…
THE ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN–satan– HAS ZERO ‘evidences of sinning’ AGAINST US, because we REMAIN IN RIGHT STANDING WITH GOD…
Which means (not perfect, but) REPENTING when one lies, IMMEDIATELY, not ‘remaining in it,’
Or…
REPENTING (turn away from that behavior, do the opposite in efforts again–unto holiness, admitting said behaviors to God)...
Of GOSSIP…
(which is witchcraft ((godly power used for evil)) against those you are cursing with your demonic attribute use, at that time)...
And THEREFORE, ‘remove satan’s evidence’ or AMMUNITION AGAINST YOU– that YOU–YOURSELF– Sowed and Harvested, by CHOOSING ‘his way:’ REPENTANCE.
We have to ‘take Life seriously,’ or we perish.
(He “is” Life)
The ‘world’s way’ (satan’s way, the carnal way) will tell you to– ‘EAT, DRINK and BE MERRY, ALL IS WELL– in the way we are ‘living.’
Know that this ‘thinking’ is satanic and ends in death.
1 Thessalonians 5:3
“For when they shall say, ‘Peace and safety;’ then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail comes upon a woman (pregnant) with child; and they shall not escape.”
Hebrews 9:22-24
“And almost all things by the law are purged with blood; and without the shedding of blood– there is no remission (of sins.)
23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified (once corrupted with evil) with these; but the heavenly things themselves, are better sacrifices than these.
24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now, to appear in the presence of God –for us:”
Christ, did all he did–FOR PURIFICATION OF HEAVENLY THINGS– sanctification, redemption, transformation, *CONVERSION of the ‘heavenly’ things– INNER MAN– ‘spirit.’
And NOW…
HE IS IN HEAVEN, ‘representing us,’ BEFORE GOD– whilst we are still ‘here,’ in DIRT REALM– living (representing) unto him– IN HIS SPIRIT REALM…
WHERE HE RESIDES NOW…
‘rep’n us’ UNTO FATHER– and unto the *accuser, satan– as he BRINGS ‘cases’ against us–day and night.
Revelation 12:10
“And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.”
Hebrews 9:26-28
“For then, he must have often suffered– since the foundation of the world: but now, once in the end of the world, he has appeared to put away sin –by the sacrifice of himself.
It is stating that Jesus would have had to ‘die’ INDIVIDUALLY, over and over again, for EACH PERSON, if he had not COME and DIED, like he did, FOR ALL– in ONE ACCORD.
(one unity with Father-Son-and HIS HOLY SPIRIT– together, congruent in all ways)
27 “And as it is appointed unto men once– to die, after that
–the judgment (comes):
28 So Christ was offered ONCE– to bear the sins of many; and to them that look for him –HE SHALL APPEAR– the second time –without sin– unto salvation.”
Right here, Christ is stating in his Word that– HE CAME ONCE (not coming again again and again to save anyone, it’s finished), and he BEARED THE SINS OF ALL UPON HIS LIFE (sinless), and TO THOSE THAT ‘LOOK FOR HIM’...
HE SHALL APPEAR to *them, a SECOND TIME (referencing his FIRST COMING–BODILY, ‘seen’)...
And *THESE WILL BE ‘wrinkle-free’ and ‘spotless,’ A CLEANED UP, ‘NON-SINNING-WITHOUT SIN:’ BRIDE.
He said, ‘that cleaned-up, non-sinning’ Bride–
are THE TRULY SAVED ‘ones:’ His Family
(of him, like him in duplicate)
We cannot ‘adulterate’ his Word (change what he said, meant and IS) any longer, living in ‘man’s traditions,’ and actually ‘believe’ we will GET TO HIS DOMAIN (heaven) after our ‘time-slot’ of choosing here in dirt realm, regarding–
WHOM WE WILL SERVE–for eternity.
You are required to DO SOMETHING, to RECEIVE SOMETHING; it can be ‘handed to you,’ but *WHAT YOU ‘DO WITH IT,’ determines your ‘outcome.’
Should you ‘lay him down,’ he will reject you too.
Should you SEARCH FOR HIM, SEEK HIM, OBEY HIM, and CONVERT, ALLOWING HIM TO ‘remold you’ (which is REDEEMING/RESTORING/RECONCILING you),
you will *LIVE WITH HIM, *ETERNALLY, FOREVER MORE.
But if you ‘lay his offer down,’ instead of ‘PICKING UP YOUR CROSS and WALKING IT OUT WITH HIM’ –your life away from sinning and into righteousness, via his Holy Spirit’s ‘training you up in the way’...
You will PERISH–BE SEPARATED FROM HIM, NOW and LATER after Dirt-realm ends.
Death, is separation from all that is: LOVE, LOVELY, KIND, GENEROUS, SERENE, WISE, PATIENT, BUILDING, RESTORATIVE, SWEET, BEAUTIFUL, THOUGHTFUL…
You will be ‘present with,’ the OPPOSITE, for it was ‘chosen’ when God was REJECTED, via his Holy Spirit, not becoming you.
So, the choice actually, to those that REFUSE TO COME OUT OF CARNALITY and living UNTO SELFISH DESIRE…
in sin…
That THEY actually CHOSE: darkness, gnashing of teeth, torment, cruelty, selfishness, fear, lying, cheating, stealing, murdering, taking, raping, pummeling, TORTURE…for eternity: which is– SEPARATION FROM ALL THAT IS HOLY and LOVING– God Holy and True.
THIS– is why I’m on this earth, doing what I am doing right now, for the Lord tells me this…
“Janet, I am waiting on ‘man’ to take my offer.
It still stands, but it stands AS I SAID IT DOES, and it’s REQUIREMENTS are what I said THEY ARE.
No COMPROMISE is in me, or my way.
That does not mean ‘all will be perfect, without failure in holiness or my ‘way’ –it does not mean that;
It means– ALL WILL REPENT UNDER MY LEADERSHIP, or suffer because of *REBELLION IN MY RANKS– my leadership is CONTESTED IN THESE PEOPLE.
I REQUIRE OBEDIENCE to ‘my way’ –ME; without OBEDIENCE UNTO HOLINESS and LOVE and TRUTH– they have me not as their ‘god,’ their SPIRITUAL ADVISOR.
How do they ‘COME TO ME,’ (now or later) IF THEY *WILL NOT* ‘come to me’ –IN TRUTH and IN CONDUCT of Character??
I AM SPIRIT; I AM ‘inside conduct of HOLINESS, TRUTH and LOVE,’ first and FOREMOST.
ONE CANNOT SEPARATE ME; and “” if “” you are BECOMING ‘like unto me,’ YOU WILL BE UNCOMPROMISED, SERIOUS, PUTTING EFFORT INTO: your SANCTIFICATION/TRANSFORMATION…
For IT IS, your Salvation.
This is our ‘mission’ Janet; to BRING THE TRUTH, UNTO REDEMPTION via CONVERSION ‘within’ –to the masses.
What THEY DO WITH –MY OFFER, is ‘mine’ to deal with.
But ‘we’ will bring the TRUTH, for it’s THE ONLY THING THAT ‘sets the Captive–’ FREE– me and ‘my way’ of HOLINESS.
The ‘battle is within;’ it’s always been within.
Satan IS AN ENTITY with power and cunningness…
But, HE *RULES and *REIGNS people ‘into his way,’ FROM *WITHIN the –inner man– the HEART OF MAN– his CONDUCT, MORALS, ETHICS and ALLOWANCES.
If we do not bring them back into REMEMBRANCE OF THIS, they will REMAIN IN BONDAGE.
We have come for Isaiah 61– to SET THE CAPTIVES FREE, the SPIRIT OF THE LORD– has anointed me.
It’s the only way to break the stronghold of the ‘seared conscience,’ with –the STRAIGHT TRUTH.”
Isaiah 61:1-4
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord has anointed me –to preach good tidings unto the meek;
he has sent me –to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and to open the prison (gates) to them that are bound;
(in sin chains–unto satan)
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; and –to comfort all that mourn;
(The time of both is nigh upon us– the Day of Vengeance = Just Harvest JUDGEMENTS coming against the WICKED; and THE ACCEPTABLE YEAR of the LORD = the JUST HARVEST JUDGEMENTS coming in for OUR HOLY LIVING FOLK: all at the same time.)
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give to them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called Trees of Righteousness, (they are) –the planting of the Lord, that he be glorified.
Father is saying, ‘it’s TO HIS GLORY (endearing/joy/and shine–love) that HE GIVES IN EXCHANGE– to ‘his children’...
REPLACEMENT OF ALL ‘evil’ DONE UNTO THEM, with the ‘GOOD OF GOD’--
IT’S ALWAYS A TRADE OFF –Spirit and Flesh–
for they are at ‘enmity–’ ONE AGAINST THE OTHER.
4 And (these- the breach menders, heart menders- unity bringers) they shall build the old wastes (people’s lives), they shall raise up the former desolations (people’s lives), and they shall repair the waste cities (lands where humans reside), the desolations of many generations.”
All that we GIVE OF OUR LIVES HERE– is unto SAVING THOSE ‘with us now,’ and THOSE OF THE ‘next generation,’ our FUTURE– coming after us:
IT’S ALWAYS ABOUT ‘his children,’ NEVER ABOUT OUR ‘selfish desires of carnal living.’
That ‘carnality’ says ‘TO HECK WITH OTHERS, IT’S ABOUT ‘saving me.’
Be careful of that ‘mind-heart-set,’ for he said ‘those that seek to save their carnal lives, will lose them.’
Matthew 16:24-26 (Jesus gives his disciples a riddle.)
"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.
For, whoever desires to save his life– will lose it, and whoever loses his life– for my sake –will find it.”
Find what??
*Eternal Life, which RESIDES–outside carnality– which is *ETERNAL DEATH.
He told me…
“When they desire to COME OUT OF SELFISH, CARNAL LIFESTYLE of ‘living,’ then they WILL ENTER *ETERNAL LIFE– which is *Holy SPIRIT REALM LIVING.
THAT…
is what we are ‘bringing back’ sweet child– SPIRIT RESPECT, SPIRIT LIVING, SPIRITUAL LIFE…
for ‘the carnal man’ is PERISHING IN HIS SINS– upon satan’s World Path.”
He just gave us MUCH INFORMATION and WISDOM about ‘why we cannot hear, or move or understand God’
–CARNAL LIVING.
We must DIVORCE IT, and ‘MARRY CHRIST,’ as he said.
Acts 2:38
“Then Peter said to them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you –in the name of –Jesus Christ –for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of –the Holy Ghost.”
Acts 4:12
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”
(name–reputation)
John 14:6
“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh to the Father, but by me.’ ”
He’s saying ‘no one comes back to THE CREATOR OF ALL– any other ‘way,’ than THROUGH BE-LIVING unto me– Christ Jesus, The Messiah, the Way, the Doorway back to RECONCILIATION to and with, THE FATHER GOD.
Matthew 7:21
“Not every one that says to me, ‘Lord, Lord’ –shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but (only) he that does the will of my Father –which is in heaven.”
Again, when the word ‘heaven’ is referenced, God is ADDRESSING ‘spirit,’ and ‘spirit’ LIVES IN HEAVEN– and ‘The Kingdom–’ IS WITHIN YOU.
Titus 3:5-7
“Not by works of righteousness which we have done (in our flesh), but according to his mercy he saved us, by the *washing of *regeneration, and *renewing of the Holy Ghost (spirit);
6 Which he shed on us abundantly –through Jesus Christ our Savior;
7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.”
Romans 3:8
“And do not rather, (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil– (thinking) that good may come (of it)– whose (their) damnation is *Just.”
Romans 8:38-39
“For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is *IN
–Christ Jesus, our Lord.”
We are to be ONE WITH HIM, and that is ACCOMPLISHED as he said: HOLY SPIRIT is given to those that ‘obey.’
Meaning– we are in ‘rebellion’ before we start to ‘obey’ his bible/scripture/word/way.
‘Obedience–is BETTER THAN SACRIFICE.’
A NEW NATURE– a *New Spirit– BORN AGAIN, *must take place, DISPLACING/KILLING OFF – the Old Sin Nature, BECOMING *NEW-Born Again.
And ALL OF THAT, is ONLY ACHIEVABLE…
‘In him.’
He is telling us, we MUST COME OUT OF ‘CARNALITY–’ KILL IT OFF, that ‘nature’...
And to do that…
WE NEED HIS *HOLY SPIRIT to ‘make us ALIVE “”IN”” CHRIST JESUS.’
It’s always ‘a choice.’
Carnality –unto self, and death
(separation from God)...
or
LIFE– in Christ Jesus, via his Holy Spirit in you, conforming you into his image of *holiness–
to reside with him– IN LIFE– for *ever more, which is to say– FOR ETERNITY.
That…
is BORN AGAIN.
THAT…
is the GREAT COMMISSION.
And we’ve got to GET BACK TO IT.
Because: IT’S ALWAYS BEEN A TRADE OFF: One Old Nature (carnal–unto self) for One NEW NATURE–that of the Holy Spirit Nature of the Person of God in Jesus Christ (born anew of Spirit)-- SALVATION.
