carnal mind (death) vs GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT (LIFE)

carnal self/mind is death and lives death.
GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT IS HIS HOLY LAW ALIVE!!!
…….GOD’S HOLY WRITTEN LAW – ALIVE!!!

Because when we were carnal, the actions of sin,
by the LAW,
were working through our physical members producing fruit of death.
But now we have been released from the LAW, not condemned by it,
and we should serve in a new LIFE of HIS SPIRIT, WHO LIVES HIS LAW,
and not in carnal/death, “self/human” trying to follow the LAW.

So, should we say that the LAW is sin? GOD forbid.

I would not know what sin is if the LAW did not say it is sin.
I would not know lust, except by the fact that the LAW says,
Thou shall not covet.

But sin, set in motion by the COMMANDMENT,
created in me all sorts of desires/lusts.
Because without the LAW, I did not know that it was sin.

I was alive without the LAW: but when I learned HIS COMMANDS,
I saw sin in me and I knew had to die.
HIS COMMANDS that were to give me LIFE, I found to be my death.
For sin, realized in me once I learned HIS COMMANDS,
had been fooling me and was killing me.

Listen,
the LAW is HOLY and the COMMANDMENT HOLY,
JUST and GOOD.
Does this mean that that which is good is death to me? GOD forbid.
But for me to see sin, that was death to me,
sin had to be shown, really, sinful to me by HIS COMMANDS.
Because we know that the LAW is SPIRITUAL, but I am carnal,
a slave to sin because I do the things I shouldn’t, I do not do
what I should, but what I hate – I do.

So if I know that I do that which I shouldn’t, I am agreeing
with the LAW that the LAW is GOOD.
Now, I realize that it is my submission to sin, in me, that drives me
to do it because I know that in me (carnal self)
there is nothing that is good. I know I have choice/a will,
but I cannot choose/will something that is not in carnal me.
Because the good that I want to do – I don’t do it;
but the evil that I don’t want to do I do.

If I am doing what I don’t want to do, I know that it is the sin in me.
I find that when I SUBMIT to HIS LAW, BEING in HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, there is evil in me.
I delight in the LAW of GOD that is after the inward parts of me.

I see another law in my members warring against the law of my mind,
and making me a slave to the law of sin, in my members.
I am evil!
Who will deliver me from this body of death?

I thank GOD, JESUS CHRIST, our LORD.
I conform my mind, myself, to serve the LAW of GOD,
even though my carnal self follows the law of sin.
So, there is no condemnation to them who are in CHRIST JESUS,
who do not follow the carnal self, but follow HIS SPIRIT.
Because the LAW of the SPIRIT of LIFE in CHRIST JESUS
has made me free from the law of sin and death.

Because what the LAW could not do, in my weakness of carnal self,
GOD, as SON, who was in the likeness of carnal sin (human),
condemned sin in the carnal self.
That the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the LAW is fulfilled in US
who follow HIS SPIRIT and not our carnal self.

Because they that follow carnal self do carnal things,
but they that follow HIS SPIRIT do things of HIS SPIRIT.
Because to be carnal minded is death,
but to BE SPIRITUALLY MINDED is LIFE and PEACE.
Because the carnal mind is an enemy of GOD,
because it does not submit to the LAW of GOD,
neither can it.
So, they that are carnal minded
cannot please GOD.

You do not live by the flesh, but LIVE BY HIS SPIRIT,
if you are TRULY INDWELLED BY GOD’S SPIRIT.
If anyone does not have the SPIRIT of CHRIST,
that one is not GOD’S.
And if CHRIST BE IN YOU, your body is dead because of sin
but HIS SPIRIT IS LIVING ALIVE because of RIGHTEOUSNESS.

But if HIS SPIRIT that RAISED JESUS from the dead DWELLS in you,
HE that RAISED CHRIST from the dead SHALL LIVE through/GIVE LIFE
to your mortal bodies BY HIS SPIRIT that DWELLS in you.

Therefore, BROTHERS/SISTERS, we are in debt,
not to self/flesh/carnal mind to live as self/flesh/carnal mind.
For if you live as self/flesh/carnal mind, you will die:
but if you deny self/flesh/carnal mind and SUBMIT to HIS SPIRIT
you SHALL LIVE.
For those that SUBMIT to HIS SPIRIT to LIVE through them
are the SONS/DAUGHTERS of GOD.

For you have not received the spirit of bondage to be in fear
but have RECEIVED HIS SPIRIT, INTAKING us INTO HIMSELF,
where we can CALL HIM, ABBA FATHER!

HIS SPIRIT BEARS WITNESS as to WHO we ARE
as HIS CHILDREN, HIS INHERITORS,
INHERITORS of EVERYTHING that IS COVENANTED
TO CHRIST, JOINT-HEIRS;

in that we SHALL SUFFER and BE GLORIFIED,
together, WITH HIM

Romans 7:5 – 8:17

Are you a CITIZEN of GOD’S KINGDOM?

GOD YHSHWH WROTE HIS Book of LIFE, Genesis to Revelation, for HIS CREATION to SUBMIT to IT. HE did not WRITE jewish ways or christian ways.

HE WROTE and SAID through HIS SPRIT through SAUL/PAUL that anyone who would SUBMIT to HIS WORK for our REDMEPTION would BECOME CITIZENS of HIS KINGDOM, ISRAEL; not a kingdom of jews – not a kingdom of christians but, a KINGDOM of HIS New CREATION, HIS BRIDE, ISRAEL…of which HE IS GOD/HEAD/HUSBAND/KING of…

Are you a CITIZEN of GOD’S KINGDOM?

Citizenship is membership in a political community
(originally a city or town but now usually a country) and carries
with it rights to political participation; a person having such
membership is a citizen. It is largely coterminous with nationality,
although it is possible to have a nationality without being a citizen
(i.e., be legally subject to a state and entitled to its protection without
having rights of political participation in it); it is also possible to have
political rights without being a national of a state. In most nations,
a non-citizen is a non-national and called either a foreigner or an alien.

Citizenship is the political rights of an individual within a society.
Thus, you can have a citizenship from one country and be a national
of another country. For example, a Cuban-American might be considered
a national of Cuba due to his being born there, but he could also become
an American citizen through naturalization. Nationality derives from
either place of birth (i.e. jus soli), parentage (i.e. jus sanguinis),
or ethnicity and religion (as in Israel). Citizenship derives from a legal
relationship with a state. Citizenship can be lost, as in denaturalization,
and gained, as in naturalization.

Citizenship status often implies some responsibilities and duties under
social contract theory. “Active citizenship” is the philosophy that citizens
should work towards the betterment of their community through economic
participation, public service, volunteer work, and other such efforts
to improve life for all citizens.
In this vein, schools in some countries provide citizenship education.

HIS WORK is to MAKE HIS CREATION ONE BODY.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works,
which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh,
who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called
the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
That at that time ye were without Christ,
being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel,
and strangers from the covenants of promise,
having no hope, and without God in the world:
But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off
are made nigh (near, MADE ONE) by the blood of Christ.

For he is our peace, who hath made both one,
and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
Having abolished in his flesh the enmity,
even the law of commandments contained in ordinances;
for to make in himself of twain (two) (into) one new man,
so making peace;
And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body
by the cross,
having slain the enmity thereby:
And came and preached peace to you which were afar off,
and to them that were nigh.

For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners,
but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
In whom all the building fitly framed together
groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
In whom ye also are builded together
for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
EPH 2:10-22

What is the orginal sin?

Question in message:
What was the original sin?

My response:
the original sin was the making a decision/move without GOD YHSHWH/JESUS, our CREATOR and SAVIOUR, and when the first man and woman sinned, they never asked for FORGIVENESS. GOD YHSHWH COVERED them, their sin, with the SKIN of an INNOCENT animal, I BELIEVE a LAMB.

ABEL and ABRAHAM understood this. ABEL OFFERED a LAMB for what GOD HAD DONE to SAVE us. HIS OFEERING WAS ACCEPTED and ABEL was killed for it. ABRAHAM was ready to OFFER his INNOCENT SON as the LIFE owed, but GOD STOPPED him and SAID, “I WILL PROVIDE the RAM/LAMB”, the LIFE owed.

GOD YHSHWH/JESUS CAME, as a human, and REDEEMED us from the debt;
the INNOCENT human life that was owed.

Now, we ARE COMPLETELY FORGIVEN,
the sin that was on us, has been TAKEN AWAY.
sadly,
many still make decisions/move without GOD YHSHWH;

HE IS PATIENT…….

HIS CROSS IS where we, HIS PEOPLE, ARE TO MEET HIM.

Why is this world in such a sad shape?

Question in message:
How can you say that your god is in control? Look at this world. Why doesn’t your god send somebody or some people to fix this? This world, that you say your god created, is a mess. If your god exists, tell him we need some help.

Why is this world in such a sad shape?

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

GOD YHSHWH/JESUS, our CREATOR and SAVIOUR, IS IN CONTROL from the furthest universe to HIS Book of LIFE, Genesis to Revelation to the deepest parts of the earth. HE CREATES to FURTHER HIS KINGDOM, here on earth, and what you call “HIM DOING NOTHING” IS HIS PATIENCE with this world.

So many have chosen against HIM and HIS WAYS. HE WAITS PATIENTLY for those that are going to choose HIS WAYS. HIS WILL IS that all, and I mean all of HIS CREATION, COME to REPENTANCE and not perish. Sadly, many still choose against HIS WILL.

I KNOW my GOD YHSHWH and I KNOW that HE HAS SENT help. It is just that humans have chosen to kill so many of the ONES HE HAS SENT. Humans have chosen to destroy the lives of the ONES HE HAS SENT before they are even born, out of the womb. This world’s genealogy is so messed up because of the gap error left by these missing humans. How dare this world kill HIS CREATED humans.

Why do you think there is so much poverty?
I believe that there are people missing that could have changed this.

Why is there so much confusion?
I believe because so many refuse their CREATOR and try to fix it themselves causing havoc. Maybe one of those aborted babies was suppose to fix this world’s confusion.

Why is there not people to fix it correctly?
As I stated above, because people have made themselves the judges of who should live and who should not live. If people would just stop killing each other and stop killing the unborn, this world would STAND CREATED at it’s FULLEST and it would start PRODUCING and PROGRESSING, as GOD CREATES PERFECTION.

So, don’t blame GOD YHSHWH!
Blame the humans who think they can be like GOD YHSHWH.

abortion: babies can live without it…

Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
.
I keep hearin the lie, from SUBMITTERS, people INDWELLED by HOLY SPIRIT,
“we will continue to sin as long as we are on this earth.”
GOD’S WORD SAYS, “Go and sin no more.”
.
TRUTH:
sin exists in me (self); if I said it didn’t I would make GOD a liar.

I KNOW that….
I can choose to “fruit” sin or TURN to GOD; my WAY OUT from temptation, PROVIDED by HIM.

REMEMBER:
if just once, you CHOSE not to submit to temptation and “fruit” sin, you know, that you DO have the CHOICE to “fruit” sin or TURN TO GOD and not sin.

So,
don’t believe the lie that places many in bondage.
GOD YHSHWH/JESUS LIVES THROUGH HIS HOLY SPIRIT
IN and THROUGH HIS SUBMITTED BODY.
so…

HUMILITY

Fr. Tom’s Celestial Musings
on
The Screwtape Letters- by C.S. Lewis

Part 1: Humility
One of the very first temptations that Screwtape encouraged his nephew to employ was pride, especially as it manifests itself in hypocrisy. At the beginning of the book, Wormwood is given a new “patient;” a new person to tempt. Since the man is a churchgoer, Screwtape suggests that his nephew tempt him to think poorly about the other people who sit next to him at church.

Screwtape writes:

Provided that any of those [people] sing out of tune, or have boots that squeak, or double chins, or odd clothes, the patient will quite easily believe that their religion must therefore be somehow ridiculous.1

Screwtape, a seasoned demon, knows quite well that most Christians find it far easier to see the faults and sins of others as opposed to their own. We are often tempted to think more highly of ourselves by looking down on other people. Even when we avoid doing this (thru the grace of God), we frequently find ourselves being prideful about our humility.

I remember a friend of mine in college coming to my room to share his disappointment about his faculty evaluation. His evaluation was great, except the professors told him that he needed to grow in humility. He protested their suggestion, declaring to me, “I’m the humblest person in the world!” I began laughing, only to realize that he wasn’t joking. Screwtape
suggests tempting people with pride, through false humility. He encourages Wormwood, writing:

Catch [your patient] at a moment when he is really poor in spirit and smuggle into his mind the gratifying reflection, ‘By jove! I’m being humble’, and almost immediately pride—pride at his own humility—will appear. If he awakes to the danger and tries to smother this new form of pride, make him proud of his attempt—and so on, through as many stages as you please.2

Through his ingenious writing, Lewis reminds us that pride is one of the very first sins we will struggle with as we live our faith, as well as, one of the last. Oddly, the virtue of humility is one that we cannot strive to achieve, but rather, we must resign ourselves to receive. And, frequently, those who have it don’t know it, and those who think they have it don’t. What God hopes to do in our souls is “bring [us] to a state of mind in which [we] could design the best cathedral in the world, and know it to be the best, and rejoice in the fact, without being any more (or less) or otherwise glad at having done it than [we] would be if it had been done by another.”3
