A flow of God’s glory is coming. His glory will fill all the earth and destroy the works of darkness. The shaking has started. It will shake everything that can be shaken. Every institution and half-truth will shatter. Only that which cannot be shaken will remain at the end of the shaking. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)

As members of Christ’s body, each of us is matchless. The Christ in us is perfect and cannot be mixed with the flesh. The flesh is religious and is into self-improvement. You can’t reform the fleshly nature. The fleshy nature must die. The fleshly nature would like to convert God’s pattern and orders into a set of rules or laws, but rules and laws can’t contain God’s pattern. God established a pattern and orders for Christ’s body, and we can read about those in Scripture. God’s pattern is spiritual and contains everything needed for God to form this spiritual body.
As part of God’s pattern, God delegates authority in specific ways to fathers, mothers, local elders, local deacons, traveling elders, traveling deacons, and every member in His body. Once He has delegated His authority, He operates His power through the person set into authority in unity and love according to the pattern found in the Bible. Right now, Christ’s body is incomplete, so only spiritual eyes can see it. However, God has promised us spiritual eyes and has commanded us to pray that He establishes a new level of seeing in us by giving us those eyes to see. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)
Whatever God doesn’t lead you to and do through you is sin.

I know the lord is with me
For I feel His presence here.
He is washing me from anger, sin and fear.
In His presence there is comfort
And a pleasant glory bright.
As all darkness is conquered by His light.
Ever brighter is His coming
As He turns my night to day.
And His love is greater flowing
As He leads me in the way.
And this present dying system
Is now fading from my view.
As the glories of the Kingdom
Are now making all things new.
Jesus King of Power and might!
He dispels the darkest night.
He destroys it with His light.
He’s the King of Kings.

Satan’s Tricks: He’ll bring false teachers, leaders, and pastors to give you guidance that didn’t come from God.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)
Satan will try to get you working for God when grace isn’t working through you to do the works. Satan will try to disguise his voice as God’s voice to deceive you. Then, if he can deceive you, he’ll tell you God doesn’t speak or you can’t know God’s voice from other voices. He’ll try to get your fleshly mind to come up with ideas for serving God rather than waiting for God to direct you. He’ll try to get you to send yourself to do what God never asked you to do. He’ll try to get you to depend on your intellect and abilities rather than depending on God. He’ll bring false teachers, leaders, and pastors to give you guidance that didn’t come from God. Satan will use all these tricks plus the other tricks mentioned in this chapter.

This is the metamorphosis. God is transforming His people into the image of Christ beginning with our spirits, then our minds or souls, and finally our bodies. He’s building a holy temple individually in each one who is willing to yield to His Spirit. However, God is also molding us into Christ the body as one integrated temple. It’s a magnificent temple of the Lord, and God is building it. God delegates His authority to every person who believes from the moment each one is born again. Not only that, but God wants each of us to employ the full scope of His authority without extending ourselves beyond the authority He has given us. He wants us to overcome the demonic powers, our fleshly natures, and the influence of the culture. God doesn’t want us to walk in fear as if we must be fully mature before we can do that which brings us to maturity. We will make mistakes. We will stumble, but we must trust God that He will gently correct any errors and pick us up if we fall. Our walk isn’t about proving how spiritual and invincible we are, but it’s about allowing the Holy Spirit to fully form Christ in us. It’s about removing the fleshly nature with its pride, malice, ego, preconceptions, and all the other fleshly strongholds. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)
The human mind can’t reason to truth. That’s the basis of relativism, which says nothing can be known for certain and we might be wrong about everything. However, we can’t know that relativism is true either. And it isn’t. All truth is hidden in Christ Jesus. You can know Him. If you sincerely seek Him with persistence, you will find Him. If you follow Him and yield to His Spirit, He will lead, teach, and correct you.

49. When ungodly thinkers refuse to listen to Christ, they’re turning toward darkness. They lose their ability to sense God. They can’t hear Him anymore. They can’t feel His presence. They can’t see the Kingdom of Heaven. They become increasingly callous.
50. Ungodly thinkers make up stories to assert that Christ doesn’t reveal reality to those who follow Him.
51. If you assume what you’re trying to prove, you prove nothing.

Metamorphosis is the same as transformation, transfiguration, or change in the Biblical sense. How can you can receive your metamorphosis, your change into the image and likeness of Christ? (Romans 8:28-29, Ephesians 4:13) As you walk in the Spirit, God gradually forms Christ in you and sets you free from the sinful fleshly nature. God is calling you into His glory. His glory is His essence. It’s what He is. His essence is the fruit of the Spirit. He’s talking to you about an open door to come up higher. Many are receiving this revelation. Something huge is coming. Those who are willing will come into God’s presence as never before and see the spiritual realm. This is the time of the manifestation of the sons of God. It’s for now. It’s not sometime in the future. The vision of Revelation 12 is being fulfilled. The church is in travail, and the man-child is coming forth. This is Christ’s coming but not His bodily return to the earth. Christ is coming in His people as has not yet been seen. We’re coming into a day of miracles and healings that we haven’t yet experienced. The gifts of the Spirit have been limited until now, but things will change soon. The church is in a time of transition. God is telling us to enter His Presence, His Glory, in the Holy of Holies with boldness. (Your Metamorphosis – Scientia)
God judges every immoral act. He judges every word that didn’t proceed from His own mouth.

There are times when Earth’s sorrows
Bring heartaches to bear,
And life’s troubles weigh heavy,
With no one to share.
All of my heartaches, all of my cares,
All of my burdens Jesus will share.
It’s then that I turn to my Saviour and friend,
Who with each trial, a blessing will send.
He gives me comfort, He gives me care.
His hand will guide me, Jesus is there.
Jesus is standing outside my heart’s door,
I only must open to sup with the Lord.
Jesus, a table has spread there for me,
Filled with the goodness of heaven for me.
And lo, though my sorrow be more than I bear,
My loved ones with Jesus and I’ll meet them there.
All of my heartaches, all of my cares,
All of my burdens, Jesus will share.

By the way, I’m working on a new roleplaying system about how to talk about Jesus without getting into arguments.
Satan’s Tricks: He’ll try to get you to send yourself to do what God never asked you to do.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)
We’ll need discernment to know who has been sent and who wasn’t sent but went anyway. More than that, each of us must be certain of our calling.
I did not send these prophets (or pastors, apostles, or anyone else), yet they have run with their message; I did not speak to them, yet they have prophesied. ~Jeremiah 23:21
Satan will try to get you working for God when grace isn’t working through you to do the works. Satan will try to disguise his voice as God’s voice to deceive you. Then, if he can deceive you, he’ll tell you God doesn’t speak or you can’t know God’s voice from other voices. He’ll try to get your fleshly mind to come up with ideas for serving God rather than waiting for God to direct you. He’ll try to get you to send yourself to do what God never asked you to do. He’ll try to get you to depend on your intellect and abilities rather than depending on God. He’ll bring false teachers, leaders, and pastors to give you guidance that didn’t come from God. Satan will use all these tricks plus the other tricks mentioned in this chapter.

Jesus is the resurrection and the life.
If any can believe it they will never die.
If any can receive it they will never die.
Press on into this Kingdom life.
Gifts and fruits of the Spirit must appear in us,
Every Kingdom element must be restored.
All ministries and offices the Word records,
And perfect unity is a must.
The little separate kingdoms exalting men,
The Babylon of voices must surely fall,
And speculated doctrine with convincing call,
Shall topple at the Lord’s command.
Emotion can’t inherit eternal life,
But yielding to God’s Spirit is what gives us life.
The fruit of reasoned doctrine is only strife.
Submission to the Spirit gives us life.
All the man-made orders exalt the flesh.
To grow to life in Jesus, all our flesh must die.
The Spirit of the Kingdom makes the flesh all die,
So live to God and kill your flesh.

91 FACTS MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT RATIONAL THOUGHT:
1. The whole world honors an insane way of thinking without absolute truth, and that’s why the world is so crazy.
2. Rational thought requires a starting point of truth. It must be based on truth. Truth is absolute by definition.
3. Without divine revelation, it’s impossible to have a true premise. Without a true premise, it’s impossible to be rational.
4. Without truth, no rational thought can exist.
5. No truth exists outside Christ.
6. The simplicity in Christ is this: Christ is real and Christ reveals truth to any open mind. He’s alive and knowable.
7. You can pray, “Lord, be the foundation of my every thought. Let me listen to Your voice every moment.”
8. Jesus Christ speaks through the Bible and every means of divine revelation mentioned in the Bible.
9. The Bible is saturated with the Spirit of Christ, so you can’t avoid hearing His voice if you read the Bible.
10. Even though the Spirit of Christ saturates the Bible so no one can avoid hearing His voice when reading the Bible, ungodly thinkers avoid acknowledging Christ when He speaks to them.
11. God doesn’t rewrite the Bible because ungodly thinkers rebel against His righteousness.
12. God doesn’t change the Bible. God speaks through the Bible to change you.
13. Wherever truth is denied, Christ is denied. Wherever Christ is denied, truth is denied.

17. When people turn from Christ, they turn toward darkness and lose the ability to tell the difference between good and evil and truth and lie.
18. In John 3:19-21, Jesus stated the reason ungodly thinkers persist in their ungodly thinking.

21. Without divine revelation, the only option is fallacy.
22. Divine revelation is the only way to avoid fallacies.

29. Claims contrary to fact are bare claims that are also untrue.
30. If you follow Christ, you never have to use fallacy unless you choose not to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Those who follow Christ never have to be irrational since God reveals knowledge.
31. Two basic fallacies exist: calling made-up stuff real and covering up the fact that we’re calling made-up stuff real.
32. Don’t fall into the axiomatic thinking fallacy trap. Axiomatic thinking is calling made-up stuff “true.”

Jesus is the only Truth that matters.
He’s the only Truth that can withstand the test.
In His presence, all my arguments are shattered.
In His presence is the only place of rest.
I will seek Him and know Him.
I will walk in all His ways yielding to His grace.
I will seek Him and know Him.
Pressing on to know the Lord . . . until I see Him face to face.
The intelligence of men just doesn’t matter.
As they analyze, their thoughts are sadly vain.
All their reasoning is so much empty chatter,
When the Lord’s the only Truth that will remain.
CHORUS
Reasoned dogma cannot test the True Foundation.
Jesus is the Truth and Doctrine I embrace.
All the ramblings of my interpretation,
I will disregard and I will seek His face.

Satan’s Tricks: He’ll try to get your fleshly mind to come up with ideas for serving God rather than waiting for God to direct you.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)
Satan will try to get you working for God when grace isn’t working through you to do the works. Satan will try to disguise his voice as God’s voice to deceive you. Then, if he can deceive you, he’ll tell you God doesn’t speak or you can’t know God’s voice from other voices. He’ll try to get your fleshly mind to come up with ideas for serving God rather than waiting for God to direct you. He’ll try to get you to send yourself to do what God never asked you to do. He’ll try to get you to depend on your intellect and abilities rather than depending on God. He’ll bring false teachers, leaders, and pastors to give you guidance that didn’t come from God. Satan will use all these tricks plus the other tricks mentioned in this chapter.
