Thanks you so much for your comments, Patricia.
It sounds like you are not concerned about obedience or forgiveness as the Lord has shown you that you are born of HIm and remain in Him therefore you cannot and do not sin.
I believe He has said the same thing to me about books
Hi Jennifer, welcome to our meeting place! When I first came to Jesus, He gave me the scripture, "Come and learn of Me, for I am meek and lowly of spirit." As I searched the scriptures looking for truth as something to know, the Holy Spirit spoke to my spirit saying, "Stop looking for truth. Look for Jesus." What a difference that made in my searching for knowledge. I no longer looked for anything but Him. The scriptures became known to me as a continuing revelation of who Jesus really is, even to the final revelation of His being the first and the last of the creation of God. He is the new creation God-man. It is Jesus who is sinless. He that commits sin is of the devil. For this purpose the Son of God was revealed, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin; for His seed (Christ) remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. ( 1 John 3: 8,9)
But the anointing which you have received of Him abides in you, and you need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it has taught you, you shall abide in him . (1 John 2:27) The Holy Spirit whispered to me to put aside my books about God and listen to Him. He said "I am in you to teach you all things pertaining to Christ. Why do you listen to man when man is seldom listening to hear Me. I don't give you knowledge or truth or wisdom or understanding or righteousness apart from who I AM." This put me on the right track so to speak. I learned to listen to God from my heart, not my intellect. I learned to approach Him with an open heart and asked to learn of Him.Who shall instruct us? We have the mind of Christ! He lives in us! If we are looking for Him anywhere outside of our new born self, we will not move forward with Him into glory, into the full recognition of who He truly is. We are to grown in the knowledge of God and in grace. What hope is this! Let Him be our only Hope! May we all be blessed with the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God, even to Him being every member of His resurrection body, all and in all.
Hi Tachen,
Self mortification is depressing! God's plan is Romans 8:13
" For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live."
We are not able to save ourselves and neither are we able to mortify ourselves. Let the Holy Spirit speak to you about what needs to go. He will then do the cleansing. While He does this, He will impart to you His Life which will give you the ability to be Righteous.
We are to be a Living Sacrifice but this is more like a Blood transfusion where Christ's Blood flows through us now instead of our natural man blood. I am speaking spiritually not physically.
If we are able to do anything that Glorifies God it is by Letting Christ Flow in us, as we "die to our natural ways".
Many people think that they are all bad and God doesn't want any of them to come out. This is not true. It is the fallen, natural nature He wants to end.
If you can remove that by yourself, without Him then it would be your fallen nature doing it. This would cause boasting in your natural man.
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith;
and that not of yourselves:
[it is] the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
(Ephesians 2:8-9)
God loves you so much Brother!
He wants you to be Free from the burden of sin and the condemnation of the Law.
This is what the New Covenant is all about.
The Old Covenant focused on what man couldn't do, the New Covenant focuses on what God has done in Christ.
Be released into this Gift and ask God for Revelation from the Mind of Christ as this is your inheritance.
Once you understand the foundation of this New Covenant, who is the person of the Word of God, Christ Himself, you will be able to build your house, the temple of God who you are.
When you have built this house and men see that in the storms, it does not fall, men will come and ask:
How is this you have Peace?
Pursue this Righteousness and God will use you to minister to others.
