This
is the most important question we can ask,
Because
only those who Overcome this World
Have
the Right to eat from The Tree of LIFE,
Which
is in the Paradise of God. (Revelation 2:7)
Overcoming
the World and Satan who Rules it [1 John 5:19],
Is the
Object of our Faith.
In the
Seven Letters to the Seven Churches
Christ
Jesus says to all of them:
Only
to him who Overcomes
Will
the Right to Paradise be granted. (Revelation 2-3)
They
Overcame him [Satan] by the blood of the Lamb
And
the Word of their Testimony;
Not
loving this life so much as to Shrink from Death.
(Revelation
12:11)
Since
the Fall of Adam and Eve Satan has Ruled this Wicked World.
The
Kingdoms of the World were given to Satan by God Almighty.
(Luke
4:6)
That
is why the apostle Peter on The Day of Pentecost did this:
And
[Peter] Solemnly and Earnestly Witnessed (testified)
And
Admonished (exhorted) With much more continuous speaking
And
warned (reproved, advised, encouraged) them, saying,
BE
SAVED FROM THIS CROOKED
(PERVERSE,
WICKED, UNJUST) GENERATION.
(Acts
2:40, AMP)
The
Generation we are living in
Is
just as Crooked, Perverse, Wicked and Unjust as that of Peter's Day.
Listen
to the apostle Paul:
And
those who deal with this World--
Over-using
the Enjoyments of this life--
Let
them live as though they were not Absorbed by it,
And
as if they had No Dealings with it,
FOR
THE OUTWARD FORM OF THIS WORLD--
THE
PRESENT WORLD ORDER—IS PASSING AWAY.
(1
Corinthians 7:31, AMP)
Understand
that God Almighty has give a Limited amount of Time
For
this World, in its present form, to Exist.
And
that Time is nearly Over,
And
will be Entirely Over at the Return of Christ Jesus.
Listen
to the apostle Peter admonish the Saints:
Dear
Friends, I Urge you, as Aliens and Strangers in the World,
To
Abstain from Sinful Desires,
Which
War against your soul.
Live
such good lives among the Pagans
That,
though they accuse you of doing Wrong,
They
may see your Good Deeds
And
Glorify God on The Day He visits us.
(1
Peter 2:11, 12)
Today
we live in a Pagan Society just as Peter did.
A
Society in Overt Rebellion against God and His Word.
Listen
to King David:
Here
my prayer, O' Lord,
Listen
to my cry for help;
Be
not deaf to my weeping.
FOR
I DWELL WITH YOU AS AN ALIEN, A STRANGER,
As
all my fathers were.
(Psalm
39:12)
Listen
to the apostle Paul:
I
Urge you brothers, in view of God's Mercy,
TO
OFFER YOUR BODIES AS LIVING SACRIFICES,
Holy
and Pleasing to God--
Which
is your Spiritual Worship.
DO
NOT CONFORM ANY LONGER TO THE PATTERN OF THIS WORLD,
But
be Transformed by the Renewing of your mind.
Then
you will be able to Test and Approve what God's Will is--
His
Good, Pleasing and Perfect Will.
(Romans
12:1, 2)
Clothe
yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ,
And
do not think about how to Gratify the Desires of the Sinful Nature.
(Romans
13:14)
SO
I SAY, LIVE BY THE SPIRIT,
And
you will not gratify the Desires of the Sinful Nature.
For
the Sinful Nature Desires what is Contrary to the Spirit,
And
the Spirit what is Contrary to the Sinful Nature.
THEY
ARE IN CONFLICT WITH EACH OTHER,
So
that you do not do what you want.
But
if you are Led by the Spirit you are not under the Law.
The
Acts of the Sinful Nature are Obvious:
Sexual
Immorality, Impurity and Debauchery;
Idolatry
and Witchcraft; Hatred, Discord, Jealousy, Fits of Rage,
Selfish
Ambition, Dissensions, Factions and Envy;
Drunkenness,
Orgies and the like.
I
WARN YOU AS I DID BEFORE,
THAT
THOSE WHO LIVE LIKE THIS
WILL
NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
But
the Fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness
Goodness,
Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-control.
AGAINST
SUCH THINGS THERE IS NO LAW.
THOSE
WHO BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS
Have
Crucified the Sinful Nature with its Passions and Desires.
Since
we live by the Spirit,
Let
us keep in Step with the Spirit.
Let
us not become Conceited, Provoking and Envying each other.
(Galatians
5:16-26)
Christ Jesus warned us:
Be
always on the Watch,
And pray that you
will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be
able TO STAND before the Son of Man. (Luke 21:36)
Today,
the World is raging against God, rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This
World in it's present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America
is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father,
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
