What influences your understanding in God's Word, your fleshy mind, or your spirit?

Do you most often apply a fleshy type of Salvation to that subject in The Word of God?

______________________________________________________________________________________

Those are the only... two choices we have when it comes to understanding in God's Word. Either we understand by our carnal mind, which will lead to many errors, or by our spirit with The Holy Spirit Comforter teaching us God's Truth that we can rely totally upon.

Lord Jesus told those Jews who believed on Him, that if they continued in His Word, they would be His disciples, and they would know the Truth, and the Truth shall make them free (John 8:31-32). How did Lord Jesus mean the Truth shall make them free? How does that work?

Lord Jesus wasn't referring to physical freedom with that, although that might be easy to think that. He was referring to spiritual freedom, understanding about this world, God's creation, and even into the world to come. In other words, why focus just on this menial short-lived life in the flesh when God's Word reveals a much wider scope of living with our Heavenly Father and His Son in Eternity? Apostle Peter even showed in 2 Peter 3 that our focus should not be on today's menial world, but on the world to come with God's new heavens and a new earth. In other words, widen our focus on what Christ's Salvation really is about in the world to come, and not as some solution for this present world which is soon to pass away.

In this world, by what Lord Jesus did upon His cross, He freed us from the bondage of sin, (for those who heed Him), but our flesh bodies are still today in a type of physical bondage to this present world. Our spirit in Christ though is no longer in bondage to this world, and that is the part Lord Jesus was pointing to which the Truth shall make one free by continuing in His Word. How's that?

The Word of God reveals to those of Faith the differences between God's Plan of Salvation for the world to come and the shortcomings of this present temporary world of flesh which is preserved unto destruction on the day of Christ's future coming on the "day of the Lord." Thus we are not to think that today in this present world that we are freed from the trials and tribulations common to this present world. We are to endure this world of today, all the way to the end of it.

So if you want to know how God's Truth will make you free, think about His Word by your spirit, praying for The Holy Spirit to help you. And He will help you, IF... you continue in HIS WORD, and not in man's carnal fleshy thinking.

There is a method to opening yourself up to the Spirit of the Living God when partaking of the Word. When you can do this (open your heart to the Lord) while you are partaking in the written Word, it enables the Spirit of the Lord to take control of your life in every way. It puts you in alignment with the Lord in every way. It aligns your mindset to hear and understand the Lord like never before. When you can increase your reading of the Lord's Word, the improvements in your relationship with the Lord are substantial.
And absolutely pray these scriptures over every detail and relationship in your life every time for very substantial and powerful results.

Yes, "is a dramatic reality to wake up !!!"" surely.

Perfect. It is a dramatic reality. We have to shout loudly and wake up the belivers who are still sleeping, something like when the shipmaster came to Jonah, and said unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeper? arise, call upon thy God-Jonah 1:5-6, take a look.

In fact, we the believers will not be excluded if we stand fast in the Lord. ->1 Thessalonians 3:8.

In fact, we are living in perilous time->2Timothy 3:1-5 and 4:3-4 combined with 1 Timothy 4:1-2, it's very terrible, very terrible. And our Lord JESUS warned us : ->Matthew 24: 1-8 ->He listed several terribles events and signs of His COMING and of the END of this current world.

And from verse 9 to 13, our Lord described the uncomfortable atmosphere or environment among the believers in the churches.-> But He highlighted saying "he that shall endure unto the END, the same shall be saved. Alleluia.

About the END of all things, Paul Apostle give us a wonderful revelation saying how the END will be:-1Corinthians 15:24-28 and 51-55, combined with Philippians 3:20-21 and Romans 8:18-19 culminating in Revelation 11:15-18.



Furthermore, I meditated on your wise words above, saying: "This is a call to Christian's self-evaluation, urging believers to examine their spiritual lives and to seek a deeper, more authentic relationship with God." (highlight mine)

Perfect. Oh, praise the Lord for such wise words! What you have said, I see as whether it be linked to Matthew 25:6-10. Wonderful but also Terrible.

Our Lord said:-> Matthew 24:22 & 25:-> 22 Except these days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake these days shall be shortened. 25-> Behold, I have told you before.

Let us be prepared, or else get ready.

Revelation 13:1-5 combined with Revelation 12:3-4, two terrible and demonic Beasts. -> Both will begin to work together very soon, in days to come, the Pope and the false messiah->(John 5:43-47),-> a false lamb, the dragon->(Revelation 13:11 and 12:9, terrible, very terrible).

-> In fact, all the world will be wondered after the Beast, and they will worship the dragon->(incredible / unbelievable), which will give power unto the MAN Beast->(beast of sea-the Pope): and they(the world) will worship the Beast, saying, Who is like unto the Beast? who is able to make war with him?->Revelation 13:3-4. ->(Michael is able-Revelation 12:7-12).

The battle or the WAR is against three uncleans spirits like frogs. Why frogs? Revelation 16:13-15:->
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the Beast(beast of sea), and out of the mouth of the false prophet->(2Thessalonians 2:3-4 combined with Revelation 13:11 ).

14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great Day of God Almighty.->(the Lord's Day-2Peter 3:7-8).

And our Lord JESUS warned us, saying:->verse 15:-> Behold, I come as a thief. ->Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.->(Genesis 3:8-11, take a look).

May our Lord GOD bless us and keep us, and give us His protection
Amen.


NOTE:

The two characters shown in the image above are both mentioned in the Book of Revelation, as follows:

Mr. Trump, as I said in the message above, is the horserider on the red horse: -> Revelation 6:3-4:

Leo XV, an American Pope, he is the horserider of the black horse:-> Revelation 6:5.

And the false messiah, a false lamb, the dragon(Revelation 13:11), is the horserider of the pale horse. His name is Death, and Hell follows with him.-> Revelation 6:8.


DETAIL: -> ETERNAL PUNISHMENT:

The believers MUST know that the eternal perdition, or everlasting punishment, it has a pre-determined and prophetic time to start, and it will NEVER end. It is for everlasting time. And it has just begun.
