God sent His love in Jesus,
When He died upon the tree.
By His death and resurrection,
He revealed that love to me.

 

CHORUS:

 

Let the love of God be in me,
Let the beauty of Jesus be seen.
Let the pattern of the Son

Be the one, the only one,
That men might see Jesus in me.

 

God sent His Holy Spirit,
To guide and indwell me,
O blessed Holy Spirit,
Reveal God’s love through me.

Satan has a firm grip, and his slave won’t listen to God. This cycle repeats unless God breaks it. However, we must cooperate with God.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

Some people refuse to listen to God. They refuse to acknowledge Him, glorify Him, and thank Him for His flowing wisdom and guidance in their lives. God turns them over to their fallen minds. They didn’t want the Light, so God begins to withdraw His Light from them.

Those who refuse to listen to God descend into darkness in a downward spiral. They won’t listen to God’s leading, which makes them more faithless. With less faith, the flesh takes control and acts on whatever it wants to do. By submitting to the fleshly nature in this way, those who won’t submit to Christ’s leading are submitting to Satan instead of Christ. As they submit to Satan, Satan is sowing his seeds in their minds. Satan’s seeds are lies. These lies bring them into stronger chains of slavery to sin and the sinful nature. The sinful nature is stronger then. The lies become strongholds. The corrupt human mind is worse than before and more resistant to God’s leading.

Here’s the downward spiral. First, someone won’t listen to God. That means you have less faith. With less faith, the flesh does what it wants and obeys Satan. Satan plants his seeds, and they grow and bear evil fruit. The seeds take hold and become strongholds. The person is more in bondage and less willing to listen to God. And so, the cycle repeats. Here is the downward spiral from Scripture.

Step #1 They Won’t Listen to God

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you ~ Hosea 4:6a Berean Study Bible

Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. ~ Romans 1:28 Berean Study Bible

For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light. Therefore take heed how you hear. ~ Luke 8:17-18a Berean Study Bible

Step #2 They Become More Faithless

Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God ~ Hebrews 3:12 New King James Version

Step #3 The Flesh Acts

And He said, “What comes out of a man, that defiles a man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,  thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.  All these evil things come from within and defile a man.”. ~ Mark 7:20-23 New King James Version

Step #4 They Sow Satan’s Weeds

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. ~ Galatians 6:7-9 New King James Version

Step #5 They Become More Enslaved to Sin

It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery. ~ Galatians 5:1 Berean Study Bible

That’s the downward spiral. It all starts with not listening to God. Without listening to God, there is no faith. Without faith, the flesh obeys Satan, and Satan plant’s his seeds. Those seeds become strongholds that bring slavery. Satan has a firm grip, and his slave won’t listen to God. This cycle repeats unless God breaks it. However, we must cooperate with God.

From the day Christ was born into your heart, God has been leading you.

From the day Christ was born into your heart, God has been leading you.

From the day Christ was born into your heart, God has been leading you.

When the Father spoke His Word, He spoke Jesus Christ into your heart. That’s how Jesus got into your heart. Of course, you had to yield to Him, or you would not have received Jesus. Praise God that you did. God’s holy Seed landed on good ground. If it hadn’t, you couldn’t say Jesus is your Lord. (1 Corinthians 12:3) From the day Christ was born into your heart, God has been leading you. Every time you yielded the members of your body to His leading by His grace, He has been building Christ in you and decreasing your rebellious fleshly nature. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)

Stop believing liars in the media who call themselves entertainers, pundits, or reporters.

Stop believing liars in the media who call themselves entertainers, pundits, or reporters. If you have been born again and have Christ living in your heart, you are a new creation. The old person you used to be is dead. Do the math. Look at reality. You have a fleshly nature, but that’s no longer who you are. You are the new nature in Christ. For you, these worldly “experts” and “attractions” are distractions from your calling and vision. You can remain in the center of the flow of God’s river of life ignoring the noise and deceptions in the swamp. God is calling you every higher from glory to glory. He is now your entertainer, pundit, and reporter. Even if you have to attend a class, read a book, or watch a training video, stay connected with the only Source of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. When you’re working, keep Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding and Truth with you, and let Him be your guide and strength. Stay connected to the one Who is the Truth. Fulfill your destiny in real life. If the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead is active and alive in you, He will bring life to your body that would otherwise be dead.

It all starts with not listening to God. Without listening to God, there is no faith. Without faith, the flesh obeys Satan, and Satan plant’s his seeds.

Have you ever thought about what that means or how Christ gets into your heart?

Have you ever thought about what that means or how Christ gets into your heart?

You say Christ lives in your heart. (Ephesians 3:17) Have you ever thought about what that means or how Christ gets into your heart? Before you could be born again, the Father had to draw you to Christ. (John 6:44) He drew you. He led you by talking to you. He might have spoken to you through the Bible, a Christian friend, a quiet word in your spirit, or some combination. God can speak however He wants. You heard Him, and Christ authored faith in you. Faith gave you access to grace, and grace worked through you to confess Jesus is Lord as you yielded your mouth and tongue to His grace. (Romans 10:9-10) That’s a fairly complete description of God’s simple process. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)

Never fear when evolutionists, skeptics, or other ungodly thinkers ask you how you know the Bible is true.

Never fear when evolutionists, skeptics, or other ungodly thinkers ask you how you know the Bible is true. They will ask, “If the Bible is the foundation of your thinking, what is the foundation of the Bible?” Your Foundation is Jesus Christ. On Christ the Solid Rock you stand. You know the Bible is true because you know Jesus Christ personally. You have a personal relationship with Christ. He tells you the Bible is true and speaks to you through the Bible. He also speaks to you through the many means of divine revelation mentioned in the Bible. If He didn’t, you would have to admit that you just assume the Bible is true, but you don’t have to assume. The Spirit of Christ tells you and imparts faith to you. Faith cometh by hearing God’s Word. Jesus is God’s Word. Evolutionists, skeptics, and other ungodly thinkers have no answer, so they will try to attack your personal relationship with Christ. Mostly, they will try to imply that you can’t tell the difference between Christ’s voice and the voice of evil spirits, but that’s also a lie. Jesus says, “My sheep know My voice.” “They will not follow anyone else.” Since ungodly thinkers refuse to acknowledge God, give Him the glory, and thank Him, they can’t tell the difference between what God says and what demons say to them. The human mind can’t reason to truth but must receive truth from Christ. All knowledge of the truth and all wisdom are hidden in Christ. Rational thought is impossible without knowledge of the truth. All goodness and love comes through Christ. By rejecting Christ, ungodly thinkers miss out on knowledge, truth, wisdom, goodness, and love.

Once you obtain God’s faith by hearing His Word, you proceed into grace. And God supplies His grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8). Faith gives you access to grace. “By whom also we have access BY FAITH into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” (Romans 5:2) Grace has been poorly understood in the past. Often, grace is thought to be mercy or gentleness. Grace is God’s power to do God’s righteousness through you. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)

Skeptics will claim they don’t know and they make no claims. That’s a lie. They claim they don’t know. God says they know because He shows them. It’s not that God doesn’t show ungodly thinkers the truth. Christ is the Light Who lights every person, and God’s rain falls on the just and the unjust. Yet, ungodly thinkers refuse to acknowledge God, give Him the glory, and thank Him. As a result, they can’t tell the difference between what God says and what demons say to them. They think they’re reasoning, but demons are using them to repeat the lies and arguments of the demons. They walk into ever-greater darkness step by step. The door to Christ is open to them. If they diligently seek Christ, they will find Christ. Christ leads, teaches, and corrects all who follow Him.

You see who you are in Christ, your ministry. You perceive Christ in you, the hope of glory. (2 Corinthians 5:16) And you also see Christ in your brothers and sisters. You can tell the difference when something is or isn’t part of Christ the body. For instance, you recognize disorders like a critical spirit, a doubting spirit, or a lustful spirit.

God speaks through the Bible, but the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked. The heart can confuse us and make us think we’re reading Scripture when we’re interpreting Scripture.

God speaks through the Bible, but the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked. The heart can confuse us and make us think we’re reading Scripture when we’re interpreting Scripture. We’ve all seen Christians arguing over theology with each side of the argument quoting Scripture to back up their positions. They argue about interpretations, and each side accuses the other of twisting Scripture. The veil of the flesh gets in the way with all its preconceived ideas. “But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.” (2 Corinthians 3:15)

They read the Bible, but the veil of their fleshly nature blinded their eyes. However, the Holy Spirit can remove that fleshly veil in Christ. The Spirit of Christ leads every person, but you can think you’re hearing the Spirit when it’s some other spirit or your fleshly inner voice. You can be hindered by your doctrines and theologies. You can seek out a good Bible-believing teacher or pastor, but these teachers and pastors generally are following a set of doctrines they learned from someone you don’t know. Many prophets are prophesying. However, the spirit of the prophet is subject to the prophet. That means a prophet can mix speculative theology with prophecy to the point that it’s difficult to tell truth from fiction. Only the Holy Spirit can separate reality from unreality. And the Holy Spirit does reveal the difference to you.

The solution is seeking Jesus Christ and nothing else. If you sincerely desire truth, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Christ, will eventually lead you into all truth. You may take a side step, but God knows your heart and will lead you back to the Path. If someone deceives you, the Holy Spirit will correct you and stop you at some point, provided you are still seeking Him rather than following a person, doctrine, or organization. Maintain your focus on Jesus, and He will see you through. Hold tightly to Christ, and hold your doctrine or other allegiances loosely. In addition, God has built safeguards into the gifts, ministries, offices, and orders of the church. To keep us safe, God gave us the order of multiple ministries working together in unity. (read Proverbs 11:14) (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)

No flesh will enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

No flesh will enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

No flesh will enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

1 Corinthians 15:50-54
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

Revelation 21:27
Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
