My Lord:
Just me running, I pray my race finds you and helps, even if it is just one. To be free from all the foolishness of inability and to discover the Truth of yes you can do all things through Christ. To say it all again is not grievous for I need to hear it constantly and to affirm it always. Am I in the faith that works by love and is proven by deeds? Is my focus upon the Lord Jesus who for some great miracle set me free just before I was to go to hell. Am I not being a forgetful hearer? Is what I heard ever before me? Am I fighting for it, to retain it, to know it, desiring the Truth and to increase God Almighty who gave me so much that I still all these years later can not believe at times is now my life. I can see things I never could have before, the distractions are many, t his world does all it can to hide the Truth. At every turn there is something to keep your mind from being set on Christ, to think of the anything but the good that I heard in Him. Truly a war is being waged and armies are being built. The question is then, to whom do you serve, whom do you yield yourselves servants to? The number two that chased me when in the Spirit, only two choices sin unto death or obedience unto righteousness.
Inability or Ability, Can't or Can, All Paid or I Must Increase Him, All Done For Me or I Must DO What is Required, I could go on and on and I will until I can no longer do so, till the end is where I must endure. One side of the fence declares a lie, the other side declares the Truth. One side appeals to the flesh and the other appeals to the Spirit. One side is the not the way and the other is the Way to the Truth to have Life. One side is evil and the other is Good. It can not be both, it can not be mixed, it can not be shared, it is one or two, one or the other. Each is allowed to choose, to exercise their true nature, their true desire, their true love, this is the test. Exercise righteousness or exercise death, one is the image of God and the other is the image of corruption.
Jeremiah 9:24, " But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD. "
I was just sharing with a friend who can not see, and I pray my friend is able. The curse is sorrow, the world compounds this and without Christ it is impossible to bear it but you allow the evil to hide it and keep your eyes from it. You can pretend to be happy with having things, but deep within you will never be truly "able". If you glory in the world and things then you will never know what power there is in glorying in the KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING that God is. To fight with all your might, all that you possess, all that any man truly possesses, heart, mind, soul, body and strength. The image of God who EXERCISES lovingkindness, JUDGEMENT and righteousness. To seek these things through Christ, for with Him we are "able", without Him we can do nothing. No done for you, but with Him we can be doers and not just hearers. They of one side of the fence love to quote "judge not", but the image of God loves judgement, righteous. loving judgement and that is His image. The other side hates judgement and refuses to be able to judge with lovingkindness and righteousness. One side is ever singing of the POWER and the other side is ever singing of being powerless.
Inability or Ability, free will to choose which image you will conform too. What will you set your mind to, the good or the evil? Evil is very subtle and many think they set it upon good but in Truth they set it upon evil so subtle they being blind can not see they are calling evil good and good evil. Blinded by their own lust through their flesh, refusing to deny themselves.
Subtle or Subtil - Sly; artful; cunning; crafty; insinuating; as a subtil person; a subtil adversary. Planned by art; deceitful; as a subtil scheme. Deceitful; treacherous. Refined; fine; acute; as a subtil argument. Nice; fine; delicate.
One plans what they are going to say as to not offend the flesh, this art is very subtle and is the mark of liar. It is a scheme, deceit, treacherous, something refined, rehearsed. In the moment things just flow out and the Truth is spoken, but when you try to contrive it, it becomes false. This all came about because of a car ride. Things I knew, but refused, this is so strange to me, I can not express it properly yet. To be delicate rather than speak the Truth, what a shame it is to find in ones self, but a blessing to know it and be able to let it go. Search me O Lord, this ought to be realized to be a great value, so I can see what You see and if there be any thing that I ought to let go of, show it to me that I may, or to say I love correction and desire it to be corrected. I will love correction when it is the Truth Amen.
Christ was not subtle, He spoke with great plainness, even His parables were very plain. Paul relayed this fact when he said we do not use ENTICING WORDS and I have quoted this many times but until now I had no idea how little I understood it.
1 Corinthians 2:4, " And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: "
The enemy who looks like a lamb but speaks like a dragon uses enticing words that appeal to the flesh. Christ did no such thing, nor did any that follow Him.
Colossians 2:4, " And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words. "
I knew all of this and yet I find it can always be more. The Lord can always make it clearer, this is a mystery indeed that I have not words for.
2 Pet 2:18, " For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. "
Artful, deceit, delicate, cunning, refusing to speak the Truth as it appears in the instant of any moment. That moment one is given a chance to profess Christ or deny Him. I have missed many of these moments I see.
Ephesians 4:14, " That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; "
What I find interesting about the word Subtil/Subtle is that it is not "RUDE" in the sense of offending the flesh, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, that pride of life. I find that the definition of the word "Subtle" lacks this definition. It is not contemptible to the fleshly desires so it is perceived to be good, pleasant and to be desired. If those words do not impress upon you, they surely did Eve as it is why she disobeyed God and believed a lie. The serpent was subtil, the most subtil creature God made. Every lie that is sold in this world by men bears this mark, this mark appeals to the lust of the flesh and so many buy it for it is not rude or contemptible, it appeals to them. That very subtle moment when one looks at evil and calls it good. That very subtle moment when one looks at good and calls it evil. That very subtle moment when one takes bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. A war is going on at every turn, the offer is always be made, the call is always going out, they are always trying to get you to call evil good and good evil, to be doubtful of what is evil and what is good, to question the Truth. To be Eve, did God surely say I would die if I disobeyed and bear the mark of the knowledge of Good and evil? If I mix the cups will I die? If I share the tables will I die? Is God changeable? Can I change God? Once you start down this broad way that most are on, it becomes easier and easier to question God and to make your own image of god. The more you create the image of corruptible man into an image of your god. The god of variableness, the god of turning, changing, the god that is not the same today, yesterday or tomorrow. A god made of mans hands and not man of his. A fake god that has no power, no ability, a god that must do it all for them as they continue to walk in the flesh and be carnal sold under sin and death. Never able to bring their bodies into subjection but must have it done for them. Knowing the Truth is not enough, it must be forced into them for they were created evil and can not but be evil. They can not but blame their god, when the One True God is not to blame for their own free will choice. They love the god that is at fault for them being unable, they literally hate the God that tells them that are responsible for their own actions, loving that word addicted, it is such a easy word to use, it also means I have a nature to what? To not be able to do what I want to do but what I do not want to do I do. Called sin nature, born to sin, born in sin and all of these things are a simple license to sin, that excuse, that reason they need so desperately so they can be free in their inability to sin, fail, be unable each and every day.
The so called Christian song that sings of this very word "addiction" and they of the inability love to sing along with it, for it pleases their flesh, it is not rude to them saying your a liar, you have bought lies and that your are able to do all things through Christ but you can not because you simply refuse not to be able. The Truth is contemptible to them and it inflames them to indignation to hear the Truth that condemns them in their flesh and carnal mindedness. That song though that makes it all right, that sells them reasons and excuses is Christian or so labeled and it must be good. They refuse to believe the division that Christ brings, they just want to be happy, able to know what they do is right and that they can do what they want to do and there be no condemnation for doing it. Their faith is not in Christ but in their sin, for the power of sin is marked them, their actions prove to whom they yield and their mouths to condemn them to not be of the Truth but a lie, this is rude to them. I understand it as well, in my flesh I know it is rude, how many times does one deny the Truth so they do not offend anyone???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
How many times did I learn this lesson growing up? Ok to lie and be sensitive to the flesh and allow the Spirit to be murdered all just to please the fleshly lust. It allows for one to not be grave, to place any sincerity of the gravity of the situation that truly lies before us all. It allows for the lie that almost every single so called Christian has used "I do not want to turn anyone from Christ" so I will water down the Truth of your going to hell, so I do not appear rude and contemptible. I know I am guilty of it, in the beginning this was a great battle in me and I just could not reconcile it for a long time. I knew the Truth but I would deny it all the time in my actions by not speaking the Truth when I should have shouted it from the roof tops, I wanted to please my flesh and their flesh and not be rude as if I had the power to turn anyone from the Truth by speaking it, what a filthy disgusting lie and thing to do. To speak out of both sides of ones mouth at the same time. to declare the Truth by refusing to speak it, what a cope out and yet this is sold everyday and is done everyday. A true man of God does not allow lies to stand, he does not resist evil, he resists the devil. Telling the Truth does not keep anyone from it, by not speaking the Truth you have denied them the ability to have it. Not just spoken words but actions, deeds, works as well.
Better to be rude in the Truth then pleasant in a lie. Better to be contemptible to them by speaking the Truth and living it, then to call evil good and good evil and to do so with all subtility. Better to be bold and proclaim the Truth and please God and not please men. There is not value in pleasing men over God. There is no point in proclaiming the Truth in a lie. The more I walk with Christ the more I am allowed to know and I see things more clearly. How awful it is to Name the Name of Christ and not depart from iniquity. How awful it is to be a false witness and why so few are able. The absolute fact that most are false witness, even them that actually have heard, who truly know what it means to be filled with the Spirit and born again. They are carried away by their own lusts of the flesh. Unwilling to actually confess Christ as Lord yet their mouths are moving and saying it but they are in no way living it.
I do not know what to do with this at times, it becomes so much to take in, yet I would not give it away for the entire world. I praise the Lord God Almighty for allowing me to see and to have this time to share my walk with Him. As I seek to be perfect and not stand silent in the face of evil but certainly not resisting them that are evil. They can be what they want to be, as I can be what I want to be, perfect. In Christ I know I am able, if, if, if I continue to follow, if I continue to fight and not take up the lies being sold by so many pretending to be what they are not. Fake churches, fake Christians, fake salvation, fake, fake, fake at ever turn, upon all sides.
Maybe this one should of been called "Rude And Contemptible"!
Again:
Faith is POWER, power to be, power to do, power to be able, power to overcome, power to conquer, more than enough power for His grace is sufficient, more than sufficient for all to be able to do all that He said and more.
Have you not heard that love does not fail? How do you love and fail each day? How do you love and are incapable of obeying that which you profess to love? What is lip service? It is nothing but empty words if it can not show forth the power of the contents of the word spoken. It is empty, vain, having no value, shipwrecked, castaway, reprobate, an empty well, a cloud blown about by the wind, a ship with no rudder, a body without the Spirit. O James is a mighty book indeed Amen. Epistle of IRON, gospel if there was ever any, steel sharpens steel, a body with the Spirit is able to show forth the Power of real living faith, doubting nothing. I will not be moved this day, I will by the Power of the Lord God Almighty stand right here this day. No shadow of turning, no variableness, eye single, every looking forward and not back, I will keep my eyes on the prize that is Christ.
Equity - justice according to natural law or right specifically : freedom from bias or favoritism, something that is equitable.
Content, Fruit, the candle lit shines its light for all to see. Edge, effectiveness, effectualness, efficaciousness, efficacity, efficiency, productiveness.
I find these words speaking very loudly.
Edge - the cutting side of a blade a razor's edge, the sharpness of a blade a knife with no edge, force, the power is a force that displays itself without words. Vigor or energy, incisive or penetrating quality, a noticeably harsh or sharp quality, a secondary but distinct quality, keenness or intensity of desire or enjoyment.
To look at a razor and one knows this is sharp and will cut deeply, the actions of a razor, the works of a two edged sword. Without words spoken one can see.
Paul was Rude and Contemptible and his desire and joy in the Lord was clear for all to see in not only lip service but in deeds, actions, ABLE to bring his body into subjection. His zeal was confused to be what it was not. To sin and them lost in it they feel condemned by the Truth for they are condemned, all who walk in the flesh are condemned. It is only them that walk not in the flesh and in the Spirit that are not condemned. The "POWER" of the word "IF" or "ARE" is enormous and because it is "they" who refuse to see it and hear it. They all know Romans 8 but they never finish it. The liars say he could "not" or was "unable", but use Paul testimony as an excuse (addiction) to live like a vomit eating dog or a pig wallowing in its own filth. Paul was the epitome of the word Edge a razor sharp but he appeared weak, as the Lord Jesus most certainly did. Christ had the Power but submitted that so to do the will of another. I have no doubt Peter, James, Matthew. Mark, John, Luke, and all who truly were in the body of Christ, all, were the epitome of the word Edge. Paul DID NOT walk in the flesh any longer he walked in the Spirit, in the newness of life, the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ.
2 Corinthians 10:10, " For his letters, say they, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible. "
A man that Christ lived in had a body weak in presence and spoke with words that were contemptible.....
Compare this image to what pretends to be preachers and churches today, try to find this image! Paul was the edge of the razor as all the disciples are. Paul had power no doubt about it, but it was found in weighty powerful letters and words spoken rudely and contemptible. His actions were powerful in that he displayed his obedience to the Truth by being ABLE and not a false witness as so many in this fake church proclaim. He looked weak but His actions showed forth the razors edge, you could see the power of being able through Christ to do all things in a body that was weak, a weakness through submission and denial of self even though he was sharp as a razors edge. No condemnation in Paul for He walked in the Spirit.
Romans 8:1, " There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. "
If the power is not present then you can not be in Christ. If you walk in the flesh you are not in Christ. ONLY IF you are truly in Christ can you walk in the Spirit, then and only then is there no condemnation. Saying it means nothing, living it means everything. Pretending means nothing, actually being it means everything. Going to church means nothing, being the church means everything. Glorying outwardly means nothing, glorying inwardly means everything. Being a hearer means nothing and being a doer means everything. Ignoring the Truth does not change the Truth.
Romams 8:4, " That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. "
The Law fulfilled in love, true love that fails not, for they who love Christ walk with Him in Spirit and not the flesh, you can not have the Law fulfilled in you if you walk after the flesh, nor can you love Christ with your flesh, For God is not in the things made of mans hands, nor worshiped with mans hands. Again it stresses the simple Truth "IF" you are doing this then you are not doing that. "IF" you are in the Spirit then you are not condemned. "IF" you are in the flesh then you are still condemned. You can not be carnal sold under sin and be in the newness of life in Christ and free from the law of sin and death. For the carnal mind hates God and IS NOT subject to His Law, so you can not have it fulfilled in you.
Acts 7:48, " Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, "
Acts 17:24, " God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
Act 17:25 Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; "
This is POWER and yet what they who pretend salvation cling to is what? that old man that Paul testified of, the one who could not do what was right but did what was wrong, the chief of sinners old man. They still in the body of the old man seek out that which they know and understand. They cling to a lie and refuse the Truth of Paul's testimony of the ability. Paul KEPT his body in subjection to GOD ALMIGHTY so he would not preach one thing and yet be castaway, useless, vain, reprobate, an empty well. A silly cloud blown about by foolish doctrines of men and ever vain imagination of men. Paul was not a false witness as so many are, he preached ability, he preached righteousness and the judgement to come. God exercises lovingkindness, judgement and righteousness. Paul and all the disciples preached the same thing. They, lost in sin, seek to find others lost as they are to be justified in a failing love that is not love at all for Christ, but proof of whom they truly love.
1 Corinthians 9:27, " But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. "
Paul did not write in error when he said "EVEN HE COULD BECOME CASTAWAY". Truly the liars are upon every side and seek to kill, steal and destroy whomever they can, the defiled do not have a working faith by love of Christ but to them everything is unpure and no one can be pure. They love what is not pure, what is defiled, the love the power of sin and profess it to be powerful when it is truly the thing WEAK and BEGGERDLY. That common thing like dirt so many chase as if it were rare and worthy of such effort, to invent addiction, sin nature, born to sin, so they can chase after utter foolishness. They chase after the weak things that have no equity, no profit, no gain. Sin is weak and it is beggeredly and is nothing to boast of. Having ability through Christ is something to boast of and is profitable indeed. To be set free indeed is profit indeed. Yes confess your sins but do not live in that, you live in the newness of life, now being able to live freed from sin, from the bondage. How is this Truth lost so easily to them that actually have known God and known of Him? They desire to be in bondage, they boast of it, they refuse the Truth of being free from it, they love to have it is, what? Inability...
Galatians 4:9, " But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? "
Castaway - That which is thrown away. A person abandoned by God, as unworthy of his favor; a reprobate.
Cease from hearing the lies of them that live in error, who are murdering so many with their inventions, traditions handed down by foolish men who loved the inability, being disobedient and pretending to love God with all their hearts. Escape from them, flee, run fast and do not look back to such prideful things. Just another verse that proves once saved always saved is a lie. So many verses contradict them that sell lies as truth, yet they are flocked to by the many. They love to heap liars unto themselves for they are liars, they love to have lies sold to them, it is not new, it is the same old foolishness. No power, no ability, so they seek the same in all. To the pure all things are pure, there is no doubt of it. To the defiled nothing can be pure. Paul was not thrown away by God for he did not throw away God. Paul was not abandoned by God for he did not abandon God. Turn from God and He will turn from you, eye for eye it is with God, for God is just and righteous in all His ways.
Effectiveness - producing a decided, decisive, or desired effect an effective policy, impressive, striking, being in effect, operative, actual the need to increase effective, ready for service or action.
All the disciples were effective in being able, the perfect opposite of what pretends to be the church. The true church of God is able to do all things through Christ. The pretend church must sell lies to hide their complete lack of Truth. Must always make excuse for sin and never able to turn anyone from it, not wanting to offend or be rude but want numbers, they love the appearance of being fruitful rather than being fruitful. There is no effectiveness in a sin nature, being born to sin, in sin. In these lies there is only reason for sin and never reason for not sinning, loving addiction, loving blame, loving reason for the inability. The love that the fake church sells only fails and they profess it, admit it and sing about it. Which is it, is the Word of God the Truth and love never fails or is it the word of men, love always fails? One is a liar and the other is the absolute Truth. Here comes the true nature of man in to play, you get to choose. Whom will you serve, whom will you yield yourselves to?
Here we see Power that must be added to faith, that virtue that God teaches through the Holy Ghost, the sufficient grace that is found through Christ. Read the words, consider them, the contents they possess. Real equity, real ability to increase God. It has no place for doubt, no place for all the inventions men invent to remain that man who wants to do but can not but do what he wants not to do. Paul made perfectly clear the old man is dead or it is not. Either you have been crucified with Christ or you have not. It can not be both, mixed, shared, you either are born again or you are not. If you are do not be so quick, rash to be put back into bondage for it is clear most do this to themselves for they lean upon the flesh, trusting in men, in their own understanding. This is a shame indeed to know God and turn from it for ones lust of the flesh. To not be effectual, to return to the inability, to the lie of addiction and not free will to choose. The lie of sin, the wisdom of the world that teaches inherited addictions, genetics to be evil, to be less than able. The world is ripe with wisdom of man and all it is the inability, the excuse, the reasons to never be able. The denial of God and the Truth is all it is.
Effectualness - producing or able to produce a desired effect. God has the POWER to produce the desired effect to them that LOVE HIM, to Go and Sin No More, to be able to Keep the Commandments, if it be ye truly love Him. For Love does not fail if it be love.
Efficaciousness - having the power to produce a desired effect.
Efficacity - efficacy, POWER.
Efficiency - the quality or degree of being efficient, efficient operation. It is seen, it is heard, it is unhidden, a city set upon a hill can not be hidden, it is seen by all.
Productiveness - having the quality or power of producing especially in abundance, effective in bringing about, yielding results, benefits, or profits. Gain, Equity, Ability is Equity, Justification, Sanctification, Righteousness, Holiness, Godliness, Uprightness, Meekness, Lowly, Pitiful, Weak, Submission, Submit, Humble, Faithful, Sincerity, Loyalty, Monogamy, Trust, Trusting, Trusty, Faithfully, to be productive in the Lord Jesus Christ, it bears fruit, QUALITY fruit, it is evident to all that see it, to all that God allows to see it. Yielding results that are undeniable. POWER, true power unfeigned is to keep the Commandments out of love, for by love I do what the law of love says one who loves does. It is doing, the doer and not the other thing that is opposite to all these things when stood next to the Lord Jesus, the Truth.
All of these things are equity, profit, gain, true gain that has nothing to do with the world. The world can pretend but in the end it will show forth the lie hidden, the true reason of and that which was being served, the thing hidden in the dark. The god of this world and all who serve it, all who refuse to submit to the will of God and serve their own passions and desires. True love does not fail and love is the fulfillment of all the law. The person who keeps the law knows not of the law, has no use for the law, for the law is for them who can not keep it. There is no law for doing right but in the world these laws are on every side.
Consider the Truth of the scriptures. There is no law against doing right, it is found in doing wrong. Not that the Law is void are removed, that is utter nonsense, it is not found where it is not transgressed. Sin is the transgression of the Law, the power of sin is the Law. A righteous man delights in the law of God it shows that man, sin. The thing that must not be found in us, to be spotless means to Go and Sin No More, the pig that was washed is not to go back to the mire and wallow in sin any longer. The dog that vomits up that thing that was making him sick is not to go be eaten again, least a worse thing befall that dog. How is a person that is crucified with Christ then go and sin more? God Forbid it be so. The war, the battle, the fight that any true soldier of Christ wars against is sin and the lie of liberty in sin. Mans problem is not addiction to sin or inability, it is believing the Truth of who he truly is and what his real nature is. That he does have a part to play besides giving lip service and saying "all paid for", "all done for me", "the finished works of Christ" and every vile thing men have invented to be able to feign salvation and live freely in sin.
Romans 4:15, " Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression. "
Romans 5:13, " (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. "
Romans 7:7, " What shall we say then? is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. "
Could the Spirit of God say it any clearer? Men come and defile it, torture it to please their own lust, the scriptures does not say in vain the spirit that dwelleth lusteth to envy.
1 Timothy 1:9, " Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, "
Are there righteous men or are there not? of course there are. Are there righteous sinning men? absolutely not. Can a man serve the carnal mind that is sold under sin and love God? never could this be, for the carnal mind hates God. So did Paul remain carnal hating God or did he cease from such foolishness and love God? Many continue in their sins and so certain they are saved and love the Lord, saying Paul was and remained carnal? Just another filthy lie by them that are defiled. How is it every time Paul speaks of the old man, he is condemned to be that old man forever? How is it Paul's testimony of bringing his body into subjection is never heard by all the fake preachers who just love to admit they can not cease from their sins and that no one can or ever will?
O how the carnal love to misuse the testimony of Paul. Romans seven they abuse it to a disgusting degree. Paul gave a beautiful testimony of his old man. Look what man does with it, uses it for an excuse to remain filthy still, but Revelations says clearly, let the righteous be righteous still and the filthy be filthy still. For if the righteous be scarcely saved where will the ungodly and the sinner be? Answer that question truthfully and if you be in your sins that should make you tremble, if it be you have not seared your conscience to the point that it can no longer feel the pricks. It ought to make you sober and grave.
Romans 7:14, " For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. "
I haven't spoke of this in a while, the law is spiritual, all things are spiritual now, the flesh no longer can be if it be you have been crucified with Christ. You can not walk in the flesh and know Christ you are condemned if you do so, condemned to hell. If you walk in the Spirit, in the newness of life in Christ which is a LAW, then you are not condemned, for there is no condemnation to them that actually are in Christ walking in the SPIRIT OF THE LAW. I have heard so many twisted versions of how one can not crease from sin for they are carnal sold under sin and make no mention of the division between the old man and the new. PAUL WAS CARNAL SOLD UNDER SIN, HE DID NOT REMAIN CARNAL SOLD UNDER SIN ANS DEATH. Being lied to by the fake church, they believe they have been saved for they repeated some silly sinners prayer, admitted the broke the Commandments of God and now have accepted Christ as their Lord but no change ever took place for they did not truly believe with the faith required for the promise to be given to them. Not being crucified, no new heart, no no birth, just the same old man, going about trying to figure out why they can not obey the Truth. Surrounded by them that look just like they do and being told this is the way to the truth to have life when it is not. God is not mocked, it is not the gospel of repeat after me and your in the club now, come to church tithe and sing some Jesus jams about how much you love Him but fail ever day. Having no true faith that you could add to it that effectual faith that works by love, that simple Truth of love never failing.
I am not bound to the law of circumcision, but I am bound to the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ. I am not bound to the law of sin and death, the wages for sin is death, for I Go and Sin No More because I am able through Christ to do all things. I was not made profitable by the circumcision of the flesh, the mutilation of the flesh, the law Paul explained we are not under for Christ was that sacrifice once and for all. The reason you can not set your hands to the plough/plow and let go, for there remains no more sacrifice, you can not crucify Christ afresh. So many never truly received the promise. Reading these and then go looking for any excuse they can find to justify themselves for being saved and going back to the old man, not wanting to hear there remains no more sacrifice. When they had never received the promise but a foolish man who fooled them into a salvation feigned. Keeping their conscience defiled just like a good servant of satan does. To be free from the law of sin and death you have to first obey Christ and you can not not do this until you actually have Christ as your Lord. Christ is not anyones Lord who remains in sin, for the steward must be faithful, and their is no steward of Christs who is unfaithful. Again, they who Name Jesus are to DEPART from iniquity. Strange word "depart" is to them that Name Jesus but do not "depart" from iniquity.
Romans 8:2, " For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. "
Depart - to go away : leave, die, to turn aside : deviate : to go away from : leave
Iniquity, not a word strange to anyone who has not DEPARTED from it.
Iniquity - gross injustice : wickedness, a wicked act or thing : sin.
To cease, To part with, Division; separation. To go from; to leave; to desist, as from a practice. To leave; to deviate from; to forsake; not to adhere to or follow. To desist; to leave; to abandon. To die; to decease; to leave this world. Find this in the fake church, find this witness in that place satan dwells.
I wonder do any of those words sound familiar? Division, separation, cease, go from, forsake, die, leave this world?!?
Christ came to bring NOT peace but division and a sword..
Mat 10:34, " Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. "
Luke 12:51, " Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: "
Separate yourselves from them, be peculiar. Is there anything peculiar about not being able to cease from sin? No, not one single thing is peculiar about going and sinning more, not be able, making Christ not enough by keeping that old man alive. Being that false witness, naming Christ and being unable. Taking Gods Name in vain is not peculiar or rare, but common like dirt, just like sin, every where you turn you find it, see it, hear it, it is upon all sides. Weak and beggeredly and it stands upon a stage before men and professes it to be mighty and powerful. Look at me I am a filthy rag still and I love Jesus so much, but He knows I am unable being born in sin to so anything about that all powerful sin. This lesson is rammed down into them that visit these false places. Can't make Christ enough unless your sinning everyday. You can not make the gospel worth anything unless you are failing everyday, that total depravity. Read Augustine and Luther, the men who have handed down such disgusting things the fake church holds to be doctrine. Foul teachings of men held in place of true doctrine.
Go to ANY church and find the peculiar ones who profess their ability to obey Christ and Go and Sin No More! Go find a church that is filled with the Holy Ghost, where you hear endless testimony of being able and not it all having to be done for them.
Lets find some key words.
Peculiar - characteristic of only one person, group, or thing : distinctive, different from the usual or normal: special, particular, a matter of peculiar interest, odd, eccentric, unusual.
I ask, is there anything distinctive about someone who can not stop sinning, who says they are saved and that that they love Jesus but are absolutely unable to cease from sin? No.
I ask, is there anything different from the usual or normal of them that profess Christ as Lord and Savoir but they do not obey Him, can not obey Him, refuse to obey Him, and continue to walk in the flesh and boast of having a carnal mind that can only hate Him, but they are certain they love Him? No.
I ask, is there anything special about anyone continuing to sin after they proclaim they are saved and continue to live exactly as they have always lived? No.
I ask, is there anything particular about anyone professing they are born to sin, have a sin nature, can not but sin, fail every day, never able, just a filthy rag, forever wretched, chief of sinners, etc? No.
I ask, is there anything of peculiar interest of anyone sinning? No.
I ask, is there anything odd about anyone sinning? No.
I ask, is there anything eccentric about anyone sinning? No.
I ask, is there anything unusual about anyone going and sinning some more after Naming Christ to be Lord? No.
I ask, is there anything peculiar about a man that Names Jesus Christ as their Lord, their King and obeys Him and Goes and Sins No More being a Doer of the Word? In this world that is the epitome of the word peculiar. Or to say that is the ideal example, pattern of the word and being a peculiar person in Christ is to them that are ABLE. Ability is peculiar and it is separate from all the world, it is separate from all the fake churches and all of them that stand in them and profess to be saved but are anything but peculiar or able. To Name Jesus and to DEPART from iniquity is precious and rare to a a degree this world can not comprehend, and them that feign salvation surely are unable to believe it. To the pure all things are pure, but to the defiled nothing can be pure, not themselves and surely no one else. This is the gift of the fake church, this is the gift of the false witness, this is the doctrine of devils, this is addiction, this is born in sin, this is all done for you, this is all paid for you, this is once saved always saved, this is pretrib, this is the crime of all time, this is the license to sin, the liberty satan sold to Eve in the garden and it is sitting upon the shelves of fake churches everywhere ready to be sold to the next poor lost soul who is just trying to find the Truth but found them who just love to take Gods Name in vain and make it useless. They can live like devils, believing but doing their own wills over Gods will, their passions and desires, lovers of self but their mouths do draw near but their hearts are far from the Lord Jesus.
I speak boldly of whom I love and whom is the liar. I do not worry if I am rude or contemptible or if I am turning anyone away, for it is not I who gives the increase God does, it is my job to tell as He told me to do. It is my job to tear down strong holds, my job to spare no one the Truth but to utterly slay them all. I did not need to confer with the flesh to be able. I did not go to some school of men to be told how to know the Lord Jesus. I do not have a piece of paper saying I am able to tell of the Lord, I have the Lord. I was told to tell of Him and here I am. I am nothing, Jesus is everything, go and follow Him I as I, no I but Him. You run this race and do not allow anyone to tell you that you are unable. If I can then anyone can, so be of great cheer for Christ overcame this world and with Him so can you, but without Him you can do nothing. Listen to them that profess they can do nothing, they are not of Christ no matter how many times they go to church or use His name. He is not far from anyone and now is the time for salvation, so I beg with all that I am, Seek, Repent and Sin No More. RUN while He can be found, RUN and do not stop running for you are able, yes you ARE ABLE.
This is the Lords day, this is the day of rest, you can lie, you can hide, but it changes it not.
Bless be the Name of the Lord Amen and Amen...
