91. God created you to work together with Him in submission to Him, yielding the members of your body to His righteousness as He says His words and does His acts through you. Anything else is sin.

I create in thee a new life.

I create in thee a new life.
Darkness has all passed away.
Your life has new beginning.
Christ Supreme does reign today.
I form in thee a new world,
Without ending. Now you see,
It brings forth a new creation.
In the earth a praise to be.

If you leave Christ’s presence, you confess your fault to Him, and He’s faithful and just to forgive you and bring you back into His presence.

If you leave Christ’s presence, you confess your fault to Him, and He’s faithful and just to forgive you and bring you back into His presence.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

“Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” ~ Hebrews 3:15b

If you do leave His presence, you confess your fault to Him, and He’s faithful and just to forgive you and bring you back into His presence.

If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.  If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.  If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word (Christ in you leading you) is not in us. ~ 1 John 1:8-10

If you don’t confess your sin and turn from it, you leave the Pathway of Life. You’re likely to wander further from God’s will into greater sin. Some people start making excuses for their sin. They might even say, “I was born this way, and I can’t help it.” We were all born sinners. That’s true. However, even though not one of us can change ourselves, that’s no excuse for continuing in sin. Christ can change us. He means to totally transfigure you into His image and likeness. He wants to perfect you in righteousness and holiness.

I commit to You, Lord

I commit to You, Lord; I commit to You.
Lord, help me, please help me commit it all to You.
I’ll have all Your fullness when You have all of mine.
Oh how I long to let Your fullness shine.
Flesh will cease to hinder when conformed to the Divine.
I’ll have all Your fullness when You have all of mine.

46. Ungodly thinkers claim, based on bare assertion, that God doesn’t reveal truth to those who listen to Him.
47. Ungodly thinkers claim divine revelation is made-up stuff. How ironic! The ungodly thinker made up that claim. The ungodly thinker is claiming to know the inner spiritual experience of every Christian who ever lived.
48. God reveals Himself to ungodly thinkers. They refuse to listen to Him.
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.
52. How could an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They would need a second premise to prove the first, but they can’t prove the second premise either. How can an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They can’t.
53. Ungodly thinkers are always forced to use fallacies since they can’t prove any premise true.
54. Rational thought requires true premises. That’s a problem for ungodly thinkers. It’s not a problem for those who know Christ. He is the truth and the only Source of knowledge and truth.
55. Rational thought must be based on truth, but ungodly thinkers have no path to truth. Ungodly thinkers can only escape this problem by turning to Christ. Pray for them.
56. Ungodly thinkers love to argue. Since they think their bare claims are valid, they have no limits.
57. Since ungodly thinkers can’t think rationally, they argue irrationally.
58. Interpretation of observation requires adding something (truth or not truth) to the observation. Truth only comes by divine revelation from Christ.

60. Emotion never proves anything, but ungodly thinkers are convinced based on emotion.
61. The emotional appeal fallacy is effective in fooling weak minds.
62. The appeal to emotion fallacy uses emotion to add fantasy to observation and calls the combination of fantasy and observation “evidence.”

64. Dogmatic thinking bases thought on dogma rather than living in the revelation flowing from Jesus Christ, Who is the only Source of ALL knowledge and wisdom.
65. Ambiguity can deceive the unaware.
66. God reveals truth through science. Some scientists thank Him. Others turn away from Light and Righteousness.
67. Ungodly scientists use assumptions as if they were part of reality. That’s how they sell their ungodly religion.
68. In the make-believe world of the ungodly thinker, “evidence” consists of filtered observations interpreted by assumptions that can’t be proved true.Ungodly thinkers are stuck with bare claims and many smokescreen fallacies.
69. To say a statement is true when it’s unknown is irrational. Yet, that’s how ungodly thinkers use assumptions in science, philosophy, and theology.
70. No one can prove axioms like Rationalism, Naturalism, Materialism, or Uniformitarianism. They’re made-up stories, and they’re false.
71. Naturalism ASSUMES no God. God REVEALS no naturalism.
72. Speculative science and speculative theology: both are dangerous.
73. Ungodly thinkers can’t give an example of one kind of living thing ( like a cat of dog) turning into another kind of living thing. To say “countless examples exist” is not an example.
74. Evolutionists tried to be rational, but that never worked because evolutionism is irrational.
75. Evolutionists are having success with appeal to ridicule fallacies since no one likes to be ridiculed.
76. Evolutionism is based in storytelling and denialism. Evolutionism is a religious dogma that can’t be falsified. All conclusions of age-of-the-earth “science” depend on assumptions and storytelling.
77. Scientists and theologians generally reason emotionally and irrationally.
78. Scientists and theologians often reason based on made-up stuff such as axioms or assumptions. That’s irrational.
79. Scientists and theologians generally reason irrationally then rationalize their conclusions to make them seem sane.
80. Don’t be fooled by appeal the appeal to popularity fallacy. Satan established an organized system. The system consists of the culture, education, and media. The people in this system act in unison so the system acts as a single false prophet.
81. It’s no surprise ungodly schools teach an irrational form of logic.
82. Ungodly schools don’t teach the fact that without divine revelation, no path to a true premise exists.
83. Ad ignorantiam question fallacies work because most people don’t think rationally.
84. But sanctify [purify] the Lord God in your hearts [innermost being], and be ready always to give an answer [apologia = rational response] to every man who asks you a reason [logos = utterance = Christ] of the hope [firm vision from God] that is in you [in your innermost being] with meekness [a gentle spirit] and fear [reverence]. 1 Peter 3:15
85. Don’t let naysayers direct the conversation toward you. It’s not about you. It’s about Christ.
86. If you want to be a friend of the world, you are an enemy of God.
87. Making immorality legal doesn’t make immorality moral.
88. God judges every immoral act. He judges every word that didn’t proceed from His own mouth. Whatever He doesn’t lead you to and do through you is immoral.
89. You are called to yield to the Holy Spirit so you only do His acts and only say His words.
90. God created you to work together with Him in submission to Him, yielding the members of your body to His righteousness as He says His words and does His acts through you. Anything else is sin.

I came here for a reason.

I came here for a reason,
This is my time and season,
And on you I’m believing,
So let Christ move through you.

Remove all that does hinder,
Unto Christ now surrender,
Let no thought be deceiving,
I know I’ll be made new.

Do you see how different it is to make your home in God’s presence instead of only checking in with God when you want something from Him?

“Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” ~ Hebrews 3:15b

If you do leave His presence, you confess your fault to Him, and He’s faithful and just to forgive you and bring you back into His presence.

If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.  If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.  If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word (Christ in you leading you) is not in us.

I BEAR MY CROSS AND I KEEP PRESSING IN

https://freegospelmusic.org/songs/i-bear-my-cross-and-i-keep-pressing-in/

The plans that Jesus has for us are good,
And He controls all things.
Whatever happens, I can see His Hand,
His work, accomplishing.

I bear my cross and I keep pressing in,
And long to be set free from sin,
With Jesus as my constant, faithful friend,
Right from the start and to the end.

Let patience have her total, perfect work.
Complete Your work in me.
The trumpet sounds and I can hear the call.
I long for liberty.

I bear my cross and I keep pressing in,
And long to be set free from sin,
With Jesus as my constant, faithful friend,
Right from the start and to the end.

The things we suffer as we live each day,
Aren’t worthy to compare.
To glory that the Lord creates in us,
The splendor He prepares.

I bear my cross and I keep pressing in,
And long to be set free from sin,
With Jesus as my constant, faithful friend,
Right from the start and to the end.

36. Presuppositions consist of made-up stuff and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane, and yet, academia runs on presuppositions.
37. Since ungodly thinkers can never prove any premise, they get used to fallacy.
38. Ungodly thinkers get their assumptions mixed up with observations. Godly thinkers realize an observation is different from an assumption.
39. Ungodly thinkers assume it makes sense to base reasoning on made-up stuff, to base thinking on assumptions or presuppositions. Made-up stuff is all they have.
40. Ungodly thinkers base their thoughts on made-up stuff because of the limitations of the human mind.
41. Ungodly thinkers use the argument from ignorance fallacy a lot, but it’s a sneaky way to give the illusion speculations are part of reality.
42. Ungodly thinkers face Agrippa’s Trilemma (the Münchausen Trilemma). Ungodly thinking can never come to an absolute conclusion. This means ungodly thinkers can never be certain of any claim.

46. Ungodly thinkers claim, based on bare assertion, that God doesn’t reveal truth to those who listen to Him.
47. Ungodly thinkers claim divine revelation is made-up stuff. How ironic! The ungodly thinker made up that claim. The ungodly thinker is claiming to know the inner spiritual experience of every Christian who ever lived.
48. God reveals Himself to ungodly thinkers. They refuse to listen to Him.
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.
52. How could an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They would need a second premise to prove the first, but they can’t prove the second premise either. How can an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They can’t.
53. Ungodly thinkers are always forced to use fallacies since they can’t prove any premise true.
54. Rational thought requires true premises. That’s a problem for ungodly thinkers. It’s not a problem for those who know Christ. He is the truth and the only Source of knowledge and truth.
55. Rational thought must be based on truth, but ungodly thinkers have no path to truth. Ungodly thinkers can only escape this problem by turning to Christ. Pray for them.

59. Interpretation of Scripture requires adding something (truth or not truth) to the Scripture. Truth only comes by divine revelation from Christ.
60. Emotion never proves anything, but ungodly thinkers are convinced based on emotion.
61. The emotional appeal fallacy is effective in fooling weak minds.
62. The appeal to emotion fallacy uses emotion to add fantasy to observation and calls the combination of fantasy and observation “evidence.”
63. The appeal to emotion fallacy uses emotion to add fantasy to Scripture and calls the combination of fantasy and observation “Scripture.”
64. Dogmatic thinking bases thought on dogma rather than living in the revelation flowing from Jesus Christ, Who is the only Source of ALL knowledge and wisdom.
65. Ambiguity can deceive the unaware.
66. God reveals truth through science. Some scientists thank Him. Others turn away from Light and Righteousness.
67. Ungodly scientists use assumptions as if they were part of reality. That’s how they sell their ungodly religion.
68. In the make-believe world of the ungodly thinker, “evidence” consists of filtered observations interpreted by assumptions that can’t be proved true.Ungodly thinkers are stuck with bare claims and many smokescreen fallacies.
69. To say a statement is true when it’s unknown is irrational. Yet, that’s how ungodly thinkers use assumptions in science, philosophy, and theology.
70. No one can prove axioms like Rationalism, Naturalism, Materialism, or Uniformitarianism. They’re made-up stories, and they’re false.
71. Naturalism ASSUMES no God. God REVEALS no naturalism.
72. Speculative science and speculative theology: both are dangerous.
73. Ungodly thinkers can’t give an example of one kind of living thing ( like a cat of dog) turning into another kind of living thing. To say “countless examples exist” is not an example.
74. Evolutionists tried to be rational, but that never worked because evolutionism is irrational.
75. Evolutionists are having success with appeal to ridicule fallacies since no one likes to be ridiculed.
76. Evolutionism is based in storytelling and denialism. Evolutionism is a religious dogma that can’t be falsified. All conclusions of age-of-the-earth “science” depend on assumptions and storytelling.
77. Scientists and theologians generally reason emotionally and irrationally.
78. Scientists and theologians often reason based on made-up stuff such as axioms or assumptions. That’s irrational.
79. Scientists and theologians generally reason irrationally then rationalize their conclusions to make them seem sane.
80. Don’t be fooled by appeal the appeal to popularity fallacy. Satan established an organized system. The system consists of the culture, education, and media. The people in this system act in unison so the system acts as a single false prophet.
81. It’s no surprise ungodly schools teach an irrational form of logic.
82. Ungodly schools don’t teach the fact that without divine revelation, no path to a true premise exists.
83. Ad ignorantiam question fallacies work because most people don’t think rationally.
84. But sanctify [purify] the Lord God in your hearts [innermost being], and be ready always to give an answer [apologia = rational response] to every man who asks you a reason [logos = utterance = Christ] of the hope [firm vision from God] that is in you [in your innermost being] with meekness [a gentle spirit] and fear [reverence]. 1 Peter 3:15
85. Don’t let naysayers direct the conversation toward you. It’s not about you. It’s about Christ.
86. If you want to be a friend of the world, you are an enemy of God.
87. Making immorality legal doesn’t make immorality moral.
88. God judges every immoral act. He judges every word that didn’t proceed from His own mouth. Whatever He doesn’t lead you to and do through you is immoral.
89. You are called to yield to the Holy Spirit so you only do His acts and only say His words.
90. God created you to work together with Him in submission to Him, yielding the members of your body to His righteousness as He says His words and does His acts through you. Anything else is sin.

I meditate upon my gifts,
And on my ministry.

I am dead to the world.
The world is dead to me.

The world is dead to me.
I am dead to the world.
The world is dead to me.
I cannot see the darkness
For His light is all I see.

(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

If you sin, you’re a slave to sin. If you sin, you got mixed up and followed Satan again. Christ is setting you free from sin.

You must abide in His word. You must live your life in a conversation with Him. He leads and teaches you from within. He corrects you. You listen and pay attention when He speaks. You live your life and have your being in His leading and guiding. You see the vision Jesus gives you and you listen to God’s voice. That’s how faith comes to you and gets you into the place where His grace sets you free from sin. And you make your abode in His instruction, faith, grace, and righteousness. You never leave God’s presence. That’s God’s plan for you. Do you see how different it is to make your home in God’s presence instead of only checking in with God when you want something from Him?

Sometimes, the falsified “evidence” is an emotionalized scientific observation. Sometimes, it’s an expanded Bible passage.

90 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.
14. Christ is truth and wisdom. No other source exists, but many fakes exist.
15. God is love. No other source for love exists, but many fakes exist.
16. Christ is the Light of the world who lights every person, but many turn from the Light.
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.
19. Three possible sources exist for claims: human error, demonic entities, and God. Only God can reveal the truth.
20. The truth-value of a statement can be true, false, or null (unknown).
21. Without divine revelation, the only option is fallacy.

25. Without Christ, every assertion is a bare assertion.

27. Axioms consist of made-up stuff and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane, and yet, academia runs on axioms.
28. Most thinking is based on made-up stuff. For simplicity, call it lying.
29. Assumptions come out of worldviews, and worldviews give the illusion of reality while filtering out real reality.
30. Claims contrary to fact are bare claims that are also untrue.
31. 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.
32. Two basic fallacies exist: calling made-up stuff real and covering up the fact that we’re calling made-up stuff real.

In the Bible, a ministry is service or a person in service. Every member of Christ the body has and is a ministry.
Today, some people use the word “ministry” to mean a corporation or organization. That’s not the meaning in this song.
