Everyone
is Born spiritually DEAD!--
Born
into Satan's kingdom. (1 John 5:19; Luke 4:6)
The
ONLY THING that changes this Condemned State of Being
IS
TO BE BORN AGAIN--Born of the Spirit of God.
This
is the Most Radical Reality in all that exists
And
can only be accomplished by Almighty God;
God,
the Author and Finisher of our Faith. (Hebrews 12:2)
Otherwise
a person remains spiritually DEAD!
Why
is the World in its Present Form Passing Away? (1 Cor. 7:31)
Because
it is spiritually Dead. Dead to God and His Kingdom.
A
Christian is a person who has been Born Again.
There
are no Christians who have not been Born Again.
What
defines a Christian, is to be Born Again.
Being
Born Again means that we have entered the Kingdom of God
And
live for the Kingdom of God.
Christ
Jesus said that the Kingdom of God is within us;
(Luke
17:21)
It
is Christ in us our Hope of Glory or Heaven. (Colossians 1:27)
There
is No Other Hope in all that exists.
Christ
Jesus said Seek First And above all else,
The
Kingdom of God and His Righteousness. (Matthew 6:33)
To
be Born Again means we have entered God's New Covenant;
That
God has put His Law in our minds
And
written it upon our hearts.
No
longer is it necessary for a man to teach another,
Saying,
'Know the Lord,'
Because
Everyone in the New Covenant Knows the Lord
From
the Least to the Greatest;
Because
this is what it means to be Born Again.
(Jeremiah
31:31-34; Hebrews 10:16)
Christ
Jesus said:
This
is Eternal Life, to Know Him. (God the Father).
(John
17:3)
The
Apostle John put it his way:
As
for you, the Anointing you received from Him remains in you,
And
you do not need Anyone to Teach you.
But
as His Anointing Teaches you about All Things
And
as that Anointing is Real, not Counterfeit--
Just
as it has Taught you, Remain IN HIM.
(1
John 2:27)
Christ
Jesus said, 'You have One Teacher, the Christ.
(Matthew
23:10)
'I
have much more to say to you more than you can no bear.
But
when He, the Spirit of TRUTH comes,
He
will Guide you into ALL TRUTH.
He
will speak only what He hears,
And
he will tell you what is yet to come.
(John
16:12, 13)
When
we are Born Again, Born of the Spirit of God,
He
leads us into All TRUTH;
Christ
in us becomes our Teacher,
The
One Who knows All Things.
Do
not love or cherish the World
Or
the things that are in the World.
If
anyone loves the World,
Love
for the Father IS NOT IN HIM.
For
all that is in the World,
The
Lust of the Flesh [craving for sensual gratification],
And
the Lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind]
And
the Pride of life [assurance in one's own resources
Or
in the stability of Earthly things]--
These
do not come from the Father but are from the World [itself].
AND
THE WORLD PASSES AWAY and disappears,
And
with it the forbidden cravings
(The
passionate desires, the Lust) of it;
BUT
HE WHO DOES THE WILL OF GOD
And
carries out His purposes in his life (being
Born Again)
Abides
(remains) FOREVER.
(1
John 2:15-17, AMP)
To
be Born Again, is to be Dead to the World;
Dead
to the World that is Dead to God.
Christ
Jesus said this:
'Whoever
tries to keep his life will lose it,
And
whoever loses his life (for the sake of Christ) will Preserve it.
I
tell you on THAT NIGHT two people will be in one bed;
One
will be Taken and the other Left.'
(Luke
17:33-36)
God
the Father has provided Every Person
With
the Opportunity to be Born Again;
All
who seek Him find Him
When
they seek Him with All their heart.
(Jeremiah
29:13)
