Seeds of Love

We reveal our desires in our acts. But what does God desire? That we recognize Him through His Truth.

When we are within the body of Truth we desire to do the will of the Father. But, outside of the body of truth; what we do when we act on our desires, shows what our soul considers important. The flesh responds with emotion and logic, and supplies us reactions that are based on our knowledge of good and evil. The choices we make are not based on the flesh, nor are they based on what is placed in front of us by the world. Our choices are based on the soul's desire.

So, we can consider the Truth to be what offers spiritual understanding. Heavenly wisdom that is perfect. And we can consider that what we seek by this kingdom, is something contrary to what our soul desires. Why? Because what the soul considers firstly, is itself. Only those who are awakened to the Truth, are shown that there is an alternative to their reactions. And that alternative is to set themselves aside, and seek first by the kingdom of God. Acting on what comes through us by the kingdom, honors the Father by His Truth.

The truth is not always with us. There are moments in everyone's existence where they have acted for their own sake, and created cost. It is part of being human, that creates these choices that we make in the darkness of our reactions. It is that cost which souls are bound in hell for. The blood of the Lamb of God claimed the keys to heaven and hell. Judgement of those souls was then mediated; not only based on the knowledge of good and evil that those who walked a righteous path had, but also those who showed that they believe that the Authority of God could act through them when they set themselves aside for the sake of others.

Time and forgetfulness coincide. Our existence is meaningless to God. God does not need us. But what is important, is to recognize we need God. And specifically, we need to acknowledge His Authority in order to serve Him. That authority is not always with us, because we need to show that we can desire holiness that serves others, instead of desire wickedness that serves ourselves.

---

Matthew 7:21-23
21
“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.22
Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’
23
Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

---

When I reflect on the actions of myself in the darkness of my reactions to what was placed in front of me by the world, I am thankful for the grace upon me. I am still filled with wickedness, and even though I have grown closer to the Father through His Truth, I am still greatly imperfect. It is humbling. And it keeps me sincere when I know the only goodness that comes from my acts is His alone by His Spirit of Truth doing His will through me. I love God, by showing I rely on Him and His Authority and His Spirit. By these; I treat others as I would have myself be treated. Not with emotional responses, or logical intercession, but with holiness that is greater than myself.

To desire to do the Father's will, should be our goal. To have heaven recognize; that we can seek the kingdom and the desire to supply unseen holiness in the physical. This is like setting seed in good soil. The desire to grow met with the proper foundation. The power of God through His Authority. Bearing fruit that is good while honoring the tree that supplies it, and the ground that it roots in, and the waters that do not go dry.

Desire is not of the flesh, it is of the soul. So the lesson of the flesh is to deny what the soul desires from it, and instead desire to serve with what the soul can supply through it. And in this service of one another, we show the Father as what is righteous in His Power and His Authority. And that my family is how to love the God of the living.

Promises, Oaths, and Faith

---

Hebrews 11:13-14
All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.
14
People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own.

---

And

---

Hebrews 11:39-40
39
These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised,
40
since God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.

---

Promises of God are kept. We are not to trust oaths made to us, nor, are we to swear oaths to God or other people. But promises made by the Father are to be considered completed when made. We should not trust the flesh, no. But we can certainly have confidence in the promise of eternal life through Christ Jesus our Savior.

Faith is not of the flesh. Faithfulness is actually a fruit of the Holy Spirit. It is what righteousness is founded upon, it is of God; holy. So all righteousness can be acknowledged as of Him, something we can give thanks for. Thanks for the faith, the confidence that comes through us, that is not of us.

Human beings make promises. We make oaths. We rely on one another and trust in one another creates bonds that develop what actions we take. This is not faithfulness, it is not holy, and in no way do these actions honor God through His Truth. The enemy has seen us develop, has watched us rely on one another, building relationships that seebus claim love as of us. But it is all meaningless, because if the Truth is not the basis of these relationships, the relationships honor the flesh, and the world; instead of the unseen qualities of the Holy Spirit.

Faith supplies us an opportunity to honor the Father through Christ. When we rely on faith, we are showing the Father that we recognize His Authority is upon us. Without trusting one another, but instead treating one another as we would have ourselves be treated, we find that holiness supplies all we require to fulfill God's purpose.

Today, we are surrounded by requirements of trust. Trust in our system of governance, trust in our economic system, trust in our employer to have our best interest in mind, trust in our spouses to stay true, trust in our church with our offerings, trust in our own instincts, trust in our emotional reactions, trust in our knowledge of good and evil. Today, like yesterday, honors the master of the world. Death drives our survivalist development, we constantly seek security and sustainability. Trust is the human replacement of faith.

---

Matthew 6:33
33
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

---

Seeking firstly in loving confidence the holiness that the kingdom upon us supplies, is faithfulness the honors the Father through the Truth he provided us in His promise of Salvation.

We are imperfect. But if we are to become perfect, we must believe that holiness can and does act through us when we seek in our faith for a greatness to come through us which only love can provide. To be perfect is to have perfection come through you; moment to moment. This is bringing eternal authority into infinite possibility. Which means, honoring what is, instead of trying to describe what should be.

Without faith, it is impossible to please God.

Holy Righteousness

---

Romans 3:10
10
As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one;

---

Righteousness is what Hebrews considered the goal of having perfect knowledge based on the Law of sins that were passed on to Moses and through the prophets of the Lord. This was considered the path of righteousness. It was believed, that having knowledge of good and evil would make them god-like, as, that is what the serpent told Eve in the garden:

---

Genesis 3:4-5
4
“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman.
5
“For God knows that when you eat from it; your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

---

Here, is what calls for understanding. The serpent himself does not glorify the Father, the serpent claims the power of God, the power of the Holy Spirit, as honoring that which is created, and that which masters creation. Outside of the garden is ruled by death, which he is the embodiment of. And since death rules over the flesh, what occurs during existence, was seen under that rule. And this was very much the facts.

The reason the law and the prophets were supplied was so that the Hebrews would not just have knowledge of good and evil, but so that because of it, they could repent their acts. But although this did occur, and the cleansing ritual was used, none saught out the truth of the kingdom because none saw where righteousness rooted. Which is of the Father.

In repent, and cleansing, it was hoped that the temple followers would then seek to have holiness come through them. But none, not one, found their way into the presence of the Father, because none, not one, recognized the unseen qualities of the Father were of Him alone. This is when the Truth came to us. And it is to be through this truth that the enemy is defeated:

---

Romans 16:20
20 
The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.

---

The enemy can only be defeated by believers who are of the body of Christ. Not that as individuals  acting on their own, no. But as believers of the truth that what is supplied through us by the kingdom when we put ourselves aside, is us serving the will of God, and His holiness acting through us. In this, showing that what is holy is of God alone. That is what glorifies the Father through the sacrifice of His son. The grace we have in our trespass, to serve the will of God by this eternal truth. Death has mastery over the world and flesh, yes. When power is recognized for it's unseen qualities of holiness, we do not habe a claim on those acts, and therefore death has no claim on what shines from them. Defeated then is death, under the heals of the faithful.

So was the Law a failure? No. This is why John the Baptist, in the spirit of Enoch, made a clear path for the ministry of the kingdom. The good news being that for the Jews, then the Gentiles, the understanding of the kingdom was soon to be provided. So Jesus, the son of God, began to do his Father's will. And the gospel of the kingdom was shown, and it glorified the Father, showing Him alone as what is righteous. We serve that righteousness in our trespass. The Law provided a path for the Truth. This is why the gospel of the kingdom was shared first to the Jews, and then to the rest of the world.

Righteousness is found in service of holiness. And loving acts bear fruit that give us an opportunity to give thanks. No fruit of the Holy Spirit is glorifies the Father, unless is comes by selfless service of the Father's will. And it is the Father's will that we come to Him through the body of His son, which is the Eternal Authority; the Word of God.

The drink of justice

---

Isaiah 55:1
"Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost.

---

and

---

John 7:38
38 
Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.

---

and

---

Amos 5:24
24 
But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!

---

Justice. Justice is not like the vengeance man seeks against another. Justice is not the poor becoming rich as the rich become poor. Justice begins and ends in the eyes of the Lord. It is those who seek knowledge through the truth, that find it available through their belief it exists. 

Justice is when you find out that perfection can work through you, even though you are stricken by condemnation, or devistated by corrupt worldliness. Justice is for your soul to see that what is righteous is of God alone. 

When you approach the Father by His Authority, (in the name of Jesus; not in words but Spirit), you honor the Father. And, when you give thanks for what comes through you, because it is of Him and not you, you are glorifying that gift. The cost of this mediation was His only begotten son. So for you to recognize it with thanks, is to begin to understand how much you are loved.

To drink, to take into yourself a strength, a power that is holy, so that you can serve others with such fruit, is to act on that belief. This service is what replaces the gain of self righteous behavior. To bring into yourself; something greater than yourself to serve others, is what Christ Jesus did. He did his Father's will, even under the weight of destruction. To drink of that selflessness, to be holy as he is holy, is to humble yourself before God.

---

The teachings of Silvanus Codex 7

My son, listen to my teaching, which is good and useful, and end the sleep which weighs heavily upon you. Depart from the forgetfulness which fills you with darkness, since if you were unable to do anything, I would not have said these things to you. But Christ has come in order to give you 
this gift. Why do you pursue the darkness when the light is at your disposal? Why do you drink stale water, though sweet wine is available for you? Wisdom summons you, yet you desire folly. 
Not by your own desire do you do these things, but it is the animal nature within you that does them.

---

It is human nature to credit ourselves with what we draw from the kingdom. Some do it because they are blind to the truth, some do it because they deny the truth, and some do it because they do not comprehend what truth is. Very few of us glorify the Father for the kingdom and the holiness of the Spirit that come through us. It is human ignorance that claims the fruits of the spirit as acts of the flesh.

So when you are patient, it is patience coming through you, not of you. So recognize it and give thanks in spirit for it, sincerely. Do this with all the fruits that you seek and are supplied; and you will find they come in abundancy, as there is not limit to the fullness of the power of God un these unseen fruits. Amen.

Thirst not to satisfy your reactions to what is placed in front of you. Thirst instead to honor the Father by His Truth. The Holy Spirit acts by the kingdom, but the Holy Spirit also is witness to what is given thanks for. When Christ returns and claims the kingdom, those who are if the body of Truth will thirst no more. And when Christ returns and claims the kingdom, those who he does not recognize will thirst and not be quenched.

What is justice, in the context of eternity? Those who glorify the Father by His Truth are secure in the life they are a part of. Those who glorify themselves with the Truth, will have what they have gained taken away and given to someone who will serve the will of God. Justice is not only the cleaving testimony of the Holy Spirit, but is the glorification of the gift of Truth by the God of the Living.

Justice, is what judgement reveals.

Do not abandon hope

---

Galatians 2:21
21 
I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!"

Galatians 3:3
3
Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh?

----

Again, Paul is speaking to Jews who have found renewal by the Spirit, having put aside the Law as fulfilled in Christ Jesus. You see, the Law of sin was given to provide guidance away from the flesh. So that the kingdom of heaven (the perfect conscience), could be acted upon. But what happened was, the leadership focussed on gaining perfect knowledge of good and evil, lineage of the flesh, and influence of the temple, instead of honoring that righteousness as holiness which could glorify the Father.

The testimonies of Paul were clarifications to  Judeo-Christians, that the Spirit of God acts through us, and that glory for that gift is shown in true service through faithful acts. Belief that Christ Jesus died for our sins so that the Law of sin was no longer the mediation, as the flesh of a Christian is dead to the worldliness that the Law was based upon.

This battle continues today. No religion qualifies themselves as dead to the flesh to be alive in the body of the Father's truth. Only few individuals actually deny themselves to have holiness act through them, thereby qualifying those act of faith as showing God is working through them. Self development is not Christian. We are only bound by this flesh, and we are constantly having to seek self control to not empower our human reactions to what is placed in front of us.

Sin is not what people define it as. Sin includes anything we do that is not done in faith. So as we gain from the flesh whether in worldly ways or by meams of claiming holiness as from our self righteousness knowledge; we deny the Christ we live in and we deny the glory the Father deserves for having His Spirit work through us by the kingdom we have been provided. Sin, is a term for what claim is against our soul. Acts of faith are when the truth acts through us while we deny ourselves the reactions our flesh has to what is placed in front of us. Sin leads us to death, death claims the souls that do not recognize the Truth, which is life.

Christ died to defeat death, so that we could serve the will of God through faithful acts. Otherwise, none would know life eternal. None did until him. The grace that was afforded by his blood is our only means to salvation of our soul. And that salvation is shown by serving the Father by believing His Truth can work through us to honor him. Death is not the sleep we fall into, death is the destruction of a soul that denies the truth because it only knew to react to what was put in front of it through the flesh it was bound in.

We all sin. That should bring a sincerity to you. We are only shown what we can handle. We grow closer to the Father through His Truth. But this existence is temporary. All we can do is humble down, and put ourselves aside in those moments when we can serve to bring the fruits of the Holy Spirit to bear. It is best to think of moments where their is an opportunity to be patient or kind or loving etc. as a gift. Because it is the acts of the holiness we provide through us, by the Truth, that will stand out in defense of our souls.

The Father recognizes what comes from His Truth. The Holy Spirit is witness to us either claiming righteousness or glorifying the Father. And Jesus Christ is the Authority that will decide what souls are written in the book of life or are destroyed.

Seek first by the kingdom. Recognize the holiness coming through you is an act of God, not you. And thank the Father for His Son, and the opportunity to bring light while walking a path of trespass.

Stray from abandon. You will be tempted. You likely will stumble. You will get frustraited. You will feel alone. But do not abandon hope. Return to your suffering, return to that daily bread. Suffer as Christ suffered. Persevere. Dont let flesh guilt keep you from putting yourself aside.

Lies of the Enemy

The enemy lies. But where is the lie, and what is just the reactions of the human animal.

The lie that brings judgement primarily is against the Holy Spirit. The lie of the enemy is claiming the throne of the kingdom. What this means is, the fruits and gifts of the Holy Spirit honor the flesh instead of God.

This is why Paul labelled the Temple Jews as children of the devil. Because what is considered wickedness is claiming righteousness as of them as a group and as individuals. The Law that defines sin, did not act to bring any into perfection, it was placed in front of them, so that in time, they would overcome the flesh and understand that it is the holy consciousness, the kingdom, that supplies mankind with what is greater than themselves.

That purpose was given over to the enemy, as the temple and the followers were shown as unable to overcome themselves in the face of temptation. None found their way into the presence of God through the Laws set out by the Lord through Moses. So the Father sent down His Son to bring the good news of the kingdom. This first to the Jews, and then to the remainder of the world. The reason for this is, the children of God are the ones who understand that 'faith expressing itself through love', is what shows the Father as righteous alone.

The enemy is defeated. The Son of God defeated death by honoring the Law while under it, and yet in all things he was shown to have given over glory for doing so to the Father. He served the Father's will, and not his desires. So when he was tempted by the enemy, we see the examples of what his flesh was tempted by as born of woman and of the lineage of David. The fruits of the Holy Spirit are claimed by those without the truth, as attributes of their self righteousness. So, although Jesus defeated the enemy, each one of us who would live in him, must also serve to honor the Father, by sincerely acknowledging that the fruits and gifts of the Holg Spirit are not ours, but believe it is holiness acting through us as a service of the Father's authority.

So the lie is the claim that the Truth is not of God, but serves the living. In this lie, death is then shown to have the final authority. But, when the truthnis known, we see that this existence is meaningless and the truth is eternal. This way death remains powerless.

Some religions claim the enemy did not know he was created, and therefore is innocent of the claim over the Holy Spirit. This, is inconsequential whatever the mystery is truly. Because, when Jesus overcame his 40 day trial in the desert, he became the mediation that fulfilled the Law. This is why his power to do the Father's will became apparent after the temptation. The enemy witnessed first hand that the kingdom serves the wil of the Almighty God, and that he, the enemy, knew now the truth. So whatever the genesis, the circumstance proves to show that the enemy is unwilling to recognize the Holy Spirit in a way the honors the Father as righteous alone.

All other lies, are inconsequential, and serve to only separate us from the truth, whether by creating doubt or enabling reaction in the human animal. But I believe we can stem all lies to mankind to the same root. A vine which identifies the fruits of the Holy Spirit as human, and the kingdom as a developed well being. This is the vine grown apart from the Father, that will be pulled up and burned.

Know the Father through His Truth. Pray thanks for all you recognize as of Him through you. This will bring you closer to Him.

Free in Truth

---

Galatians 5:6
6
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.

---

The context of this is freedom. Freedom from the yoke of slavery which no longer has power over us who are believers. We are the children of faith, Abraham's true children. We were born under the Law and it's masters, but we are set free of their bondage by our faith in Christ.

The Galatians were apparently Jews more than Gentiles. The context of Galatians 4 and 5 is a explanation of what these Jews were no longer bound by, yet, lingered in. The Law that binds and requires of them to follow celebrations, traditions, and calender events. All of which no longer hold meaning to God. The Son of God was sent among us, and he delivered to us true purpose and an explanation of the Father's Truth amd His Spirit. So the unseen qualities of God are honored through 'faith expressing itself through love.'

In a day and age where we see that love is in the families and houses of many religions, we still remain separate. What separates us is the Truth. Christ Jesus is the Truth. The belief that the Spirit of Truth works through us putting aside ourselves. We become the body of this Truth. We show that it is holiness working through us instead of what others believe, which is that holiness is because of them. The difference is we show this righteousness to be of the Father alone, which glorifies Him by His Truth.

So we remain in this Truth, and the Spirit of Truth does works in our acts based in Love. The Spirit of Truth is our witness to these humbling acts. These acts are humbling because we are serving the will of God instead of acting on our own reactions to what is placed in front of us. This is faithfulness. The Holy Spirit places on our hearts and minds, what honors the Father alone.

Remaining in the Truth that is Christ Jesus, requires sincerity, so what acts through us is witnessed by others as the power of God acting through us. This is what others recognize as holiness, something greater than what is human.

Yes, even pagans love their family. Yes, organized man made religions unify under their banner of love. And yes, many claim love in the name of Christ Jesus. But, the celebrate him because it honors them, and solidifies their enslavement of the free. They all then will be judged by the Law, where those who carry the Truth are free from it's bondage.

Every knee shall bow, and very tongue shall confess that Christ Jesus is Lord. As only those who of his body, that do the will of the Father, glorify the Father's Truth. The rest will recognize that the kingdom upon the living is not of the body or the soul or the mind. The kingdom is what supplies holiness alone. And the kingdom will be reclaimed as will the Spirit of Truth, when Christ returns.

Pray thanks to the Father when you recognize holiness come through you while on your path of transgression. As you are setting yourself aside for the one you serve, you do not have expectations of gain, you serve out of love. This existence is a trial, not meant to honor the individual or the group, but to honor the Father by recognizing Him as righteous alone.

The Loving Basket: How holiness combines


---

John 16:7
But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

---

The Holy Spirit is the fullness of God's power, and of the Authority that bears the name of Christ. The Holy Spirit is known by us in the same manner the unseen qualities of God are known.

The fruits and gifts of the Holy Spirit are founded in perfect Love, as God is Love.

---

Galatians 5:22-23
22 
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance(patience), kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23
gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

---

2 Corinthians 12:4-11
4
There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them.
5
There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.
6
There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work.

7
Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
8
To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit,
9
to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,
10
to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues.
11
All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

---

These fruits and gifts represent the perfection that comes through us, by the conscience upon us all. It vital as Christians that we recognize these fruit shouldn't serve our will, but instead, serve lovingly; those whom are placed in front of us. The Holy Spirit gives freely for the common good, yes. But it is a great division: those who claim themselves as righteous because of the Spirit, and, those whom serve purpose, and recognize that righteousness is the Father's alone.

God is Love. All the powers of the Holy Spirit are based in love. The foundation of selflessness is to serve the will of the Father. So from that Rock, the body of Truth stands. This body which Christ is the head of, serves by seeking from the kingdom, in sincere love for one another. So this means that all the attributes of the Holy Spirit are based in love. Love for the Father shown by doing His will through the belief in His Truth, and love for one another; shown in acts of faith. That which comes through the kingdom, the heavenly conscience, is greater than our imperfection which we set aside in faith.

---

2 Corinthians 12:12-14
12
Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ.
13
For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.
14
Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.

---

To be kind is not human, it is holiness acting out of love, which is also holy. These are not emotions, nor worldliness. These are full and complete attributes of a perfect Spirit. Because someone does not have understanding of the kingdom, does not mean they do not have love come through them. Our God is the God of the living. All whom live can love. But, it is only few who attribute these fruits and gifts as holiness acting through them, showing God to be righteous alone.

The good news gospel, is the understanding of the kingdom. A heavenly conscience upon the creation of mankind, of which, the Holy Spirit acts through. The Holy Spirit is a part of God, so the Father recognizes His fruits. This is the opportunity: bring Him glory so He may draw you closer to Him. Honor Him, by remaining humble, put aside your reactions and act on faith that love can supply holiness through you in your day.

The fruit and gifts of Love are capable of serving the Father's will. And as a body of believers, we are the physical potential of unseen holy power.

The unseen qualities of Holy Peace

---

John 14:27
27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

---

The world gives with expectations and extolls a cost. The cost is placed upon others, aswell as your soul. For everything gained came by choices made.

The holiness of true spiritual peace, is given to those who seek it by the kingdom. The conscience that supplies this holiness bases this peace on the love which it glorifies. God is love, and the spiritual fruit of peace comes through us when we put aside our choice, and sincerely believe that there is purpose in our loving acts.

Peace comes through confidence it is available. This is not the calm from meditation nor the settling of aggression. Peace is spiritual not emotional nor physical. Peace is holy and complete, it is something we can seek out and rely upon. We seek out peace when we are acting by the will of the Father. So, we seek out peace when doing good works.

Jesus told his disciples to not worry or be afraid. He did this because if they remained in their emotional reactions, there would be no room for peace to act through them. Instead, they would be reacting by their knowledge of good and evil, instead of having faith to have holiness work through them. Jesus told them not to worry nor be afraid, not because he had concern for them, but because he knew that if they did, they would be blind to the will of God.

Peace overcomes what time and reaction supply. Peace should be sought out when those whom deserve love, are themselves worried or angry. Whether it be a friend, or an enemy; to have peace upon you, acting through you, surpasses the emotional static, or worldly urgency that causes people to react and make choices based on those reactions. See? We serve lovingly, so what fruits we seek are based on that love. And peace offers a greatness that glorifies the Father by His Truth.

What the world offers is dominion. Which is spiritual enslavement. It places in front of us, what our souls will cause our bodies to react to. The body itself can not sin, the soul's desire to satisfy it's own will, cause the body to sin. And everything we do that is done without faith; is sin.

---

Romans 14:23
23
But whoever has doubts is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin.

---

We are in motion. And as believers, we are called to serve the Father's purpose; which in the context of this letter, is to put ourselves aside to have peacefulness lovingly supply what we cannot on our own. So what is peace? An unseen quality of the power of God Almighty. We become a beacon for that light to shine through us, which others witness. The holiness makes non-believers recognize that something greater than ourselves is acting through us. So we go forward with the Father's purpose in our hearts and minds, showing the Father that our soul can be humble, and act lovingly, with sincerity. Just like the Truth he supplied us. Amen.

Mercy in the night


The Hebrews were claimed as the Lord God's chosen people. He rescued them from the opression of Egypt. They left in haste. They left in the night. He took what was not His to take, he claimed them out of their bondage. Like a thief, in the night.

They became a nation of God, and through bloodlines and through land; they learned wisdom through their obedience to their knowledge of sin. But all that knowledge and development, all those traditions and all that insight; did not bring one soul into the presence of God.

Obedience through knowledge was the wide path given as a mercy; but in the end, did not root where faith in truth; blooms. So the true children of Abraham are those who recognize the unseen qualities of God by faith that act through us, not because of us.

The prophets of these people, were spoken to. This is not how it is done with our council. Because we have faith; our teacher is the Spirit of Truth, who places the Truth on our hearts, and words to our lips. The Holy Spirit acts through this kingdom. Our belief is that we holiness working through us as we put our imperfection aside. This is what separates us from those whom claim the kingdom as their own perfection through their knowledge. Yes, all can love. But how do we glorify God? By claiming that love is from us, or, by celebrating it comes from God alone?

---
Gospel of Thomas, saying 43
43
1
His disciples said to him, "Who are you to say these things to us?" 
"You don't understand who I am from what I say to you.
Rather, you have become like the Judeans, for they love the tree but hate its fruit, or they love 
the fruit but hate the tree."

---

It is the Holy Spirit that is witness to this division, this separating of the wheat from the chaff. We who walk in our trangressions, believe the kingdom set upon us is what the holiness of God acts through by His Spirit of Truth. We believe the fruits of holiness are not human, and cannot be learned, claimed, or fully understood. Instead, we see them as perfection that acts through us when we humbly set ourselves aside in order for them to come to bear. This is a wisdom of heaven. It is this gospel of the kingdom of heaven that has been preached to the dead also.

---

1 Peter 4:6
6
For this is the reason the gospel was preached even to those who are now dead, so that they might be judged according to human standards in regard to the body, but live according to God in regard to the spirit.

---

There are those whom still remain unwilling to believe in this message of good news, that Christ supplied us. And those who do not believe, they will not be able to see that; what fruit comes from their vine, that does not honor the Father's Truth.

---

Gospel of Thomas, saying 40
40
1
Jesus said, "A grapevine has been planted apart from the Father.
Since it is not strong, it will be pulled up by its root and will perish."

---

This is how even pagans love their own. The kingdom of heaven supplies holiness, but that holiness does not make the flesh holy. To know the Father is to know His Truth, and knowing His Truth leads us to the Father. There is no other path that glorifies Him. Those whom remain reliant on their knowledge of good and evil, are bound to the old mediation, and are therefore judged by it aswell.

In the end, we know that it was mercy that God showed the Hebrews. And it is that mercy that shows God as loving. Those who deny His Truth will confess to it, and honor it, as there is nothing else but mercy without recognizing the message of salvation.

---

Matthew 9:13
13 
But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

---

And all sin. So what is there to say but, to love the Father is to recognize His Truth. With all your heart, with all your mind, and your soul, seek to put your self aside, so what fruits you bear is good, and honors Him as what is righteous.

Amen

Not bread alone: Spiritual weakness

Weakness.

So what is spiritual weakness? When we resort to worldliness. When we return to what we were, instead of what we have turned to.

I say to you, the closer you get to the Spirit of Truth the emptier your existence becomes. We become instead in requirement of the Spirit, unable to sustain ouselves in the world. Like a child:

---

Matthew 18:3-5
3
“Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
4
Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5
And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.

---

We should strive to further ourselves from the milk of duality, (worldliness and its knowledge of sin), and we instead, hunger to sustain ourselves on the meat. The meat is the spiritual path, the full form of what is the purpose of this time we have.

As we strive, (persevere); we find ourselves in a state of trial more and more. It is up to each individual to not only recognize what is holy (of the kingdom), but, believe that it is holiness acting through them ( faith that honors the truth). Otherwise, we claim as our own; the fruit that is not of our worldliness. The enemy would have us believe we are what brings perfection, when the truth is, our faith that holiness can work through us honors the Father.

Our weaknesses actually increase, the further we place ourselves away from what we were before we believed. Weakness, in this context, is when we learn something of our purpose, and it is met with challenge. The flesh and the world do not gain from the truth. On the contrary, the flesh reacts to being denied, and the wickedness in heavenly realms brings sin upon us.

Jesus was the first to experience this in whole, as he was swept away to fast for forty days in temptation. The longer he denied himself, and the wickedness in heavenly realms; the syronger he became in the Spirit, and the greater the temptation he faced.

His fasting was not 'of bread alone', no, he was being sustained by faith.  His trials were not of his strength as a man but of his humility in service; not 'testing the Lord our God'. His kingdom was not worldly but was of the Spirit, serving only the unseen qualities of God.

I said to the Father tonight, "Forgive me for my weaknesses, I am filled with weakness." And in this admittance, I was shown that it is not the temptation that is weakness, and it is not the actions that are condemnable; it is the guilt that keeps us away from serving true purpose, that brings judgement upon us.

---

2 Corinthians 12:9

But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

---

You will stumble, you do sin. But, in your trespasses, you will find that if you seek in faithfulness the truth, so to serve by the gifts the Holy Spirit grants you, you will serve in a way that honors God's will; you will begin fulfilling your purpose.

We are not perfect. But perfection can work through us to serve one another in loving ways. And it is those who proclaim that perfection in their weaknesses are acts of God through them, these are whom glorify the Father by His Truth.

Doing the will of God is fulfilling your purpose spiritually. And the only way; is believing that holiness is supplied by the conscience, which God placed in all mankind. That conscience is the kingdom upon us. And it was given as an opportunity, a grace, so that we could recognize the Father as righteous alone.

Weaknesses keep us humble. The truth keeps us sincere. Faith places the Father above all things. His sharing of His authority with those who act to fulfill their purpose. Weakness is part of being human, and that is because we have been opposing death with our knowledge. Perfection comes when we defeat death, by acting on faith, not our understanding.

Blessings upon you, child of God.

Every tongue shall confess

---

Matthew 23:39
39
For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’

---

Jesus was instructing his disciples, and, at the same time, speaking to the Pharisees that were gathered while he spoke.

Since he did not show himself to the Pharisees after rising from the dead, we can take it as prophesy, that when he said, '..you will not see me again until..', he was speaking of the time of his return. And we can take it as prophesy, that when he said, "..until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'", he was speaking of the Pharisees acknowledging that the truth of their salvation by the Messiah they await, will in fact come from him.

This is a continuing awareness I have had come through me for you. That it is the workings of the Holy Spirit that either are used to honor self or, glorify the Father by the kingdom he set upon us.

---

Romans 1:17
17
For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed--a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."

---

Faith; that the fruits of the Holy Spirit, can act through us whom walk in our trespasses. It is this that is the gospel of the Kingdom. The sword that cleaves the self righteous from those who acknowledge that righteousness is of God alone. Faith, is in itself a fruit of the Holh Spirit, believing that holiness can act through us..not because of us. This division is the division of the endtimes.

The entire world rallies to celebrate a love they claim as their own. But, the Spirit of Truth is what truly makes the fruits of holiness available to all. It is what is done with these fruits that differentiate the self righteous from the faithful.

In the name of the Lord, is, in the name of the Truth; and that means, the Father's authority which does His will alone. Amen

Give thanks for what holiness comes through you. Do not be more than a servant in the treatment of others. To be loving, to be gentle or kind or peaceful, to be patient or good, or even in control of yourself; is as holy as the faithfulness you carry. It is not you from your knowledge of good and evil that has brought this through you, no. It is the holiness that is upon the world, that is the fruits of the Spirit of Truth. And to claim it is anything but holiness acting through you, by the conscience set upon you, is blindness.

Glory to the Father for His Authority separates the believers from the self righteous world.

Blessings.

This is the narrow path.

---

1 Corinthians 10:32-33
32
Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God-
33
even as I try to please everyone in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.

---

I had twenty minutes to wait for a meeting today at a person's home. So I stopped in at the local convenience store, got a small coffee and went back outside.

I got into a conversation with a colorful character. He was placed in front of me.

The conversation went directly into beliefs. He spoke of Karma and he spoke of Murphy's law. I spoke of our daily bread of suffereance and trials, and I spoke of treating others as you would have yourself be treated. He then spoke of
hypocrisy in Christians and the lack of generosity in others that has brought nothing but destruction to our communities and nation. I spoke of kindness and love and patience as fruits of the Holy Spirit that come through us all, but that very few believe it is coming through them, but instead believe it is because of their character.

We continued to display our beliefs. And as he spoke of Satan 'at least owning his position', I spoke of the truth being God is in all things and it is our choices that determine our outcomes. The peace that was upon me was only equal to the emotional erratic behaviour of this passionate soul. We left, the both of us, almost bonded in some formal way. We had learned something from one another, possibly; that we could find room for each other. He saw it as a way for him to understand himself. I saw it as a way for me to see holiness work through me for the sake of another.

Many of us, at some point in our path, take pride in our beliefs, and in that pride, not only do we boast, but we create an envy in those we sense will listen. It is a human trait to position ourselves. This is not holy, this is not serving.

Paul boasted, yes. But Paul boasted about:

---

2 Corinthians 12:9
9
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

---

Paul boasted about his weaknesses. Not his sins, or habits. No, Paul boasted about what he personally struggled with that stood in between him and properly serving the truth upon him. Pride, likely, as he was raises to become a reknown Pharisee, of blood and water. He had to set aside his learned understanding of righteousness, and give it over humbly to the Father, (whom we know is alone in righteousness).

So when I was chatting and listening to this soul in front of the convenience store, I was aware, awake, knowing that I wanted to in my pride, contest everything this man had to say. Not to defend Christ or his teachings, no. I wanted to as a human being let my pride created envy in this man, to let him see me as my pride wants to believe God sees me. But, my faithfulness paid off in my weakness ans the truth that the Holy Spirit works through me, saved me. Had I reacted in a self righteous manor, I would have failed that man amd my Lord as well as myself.

So, we do not cause others, anyone to stumble. And the only way we can accomplish this in anything placed in front of us, is by honoring the Father, and acknowledging His Spirit of Truth is what acts through us. It is humbling, and in that, we stand sincere. The kingdom of heaven bears fruits that either we claim are from us, or we celebrate they are of God.

This is the narrow path.

Equal in Christ

---

Galatians 3:28
28
There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus

---

When we can put envy or pride aside, we find ourselves equal in this existence. And when we see ourselves as equal, we do not see ourselves as what is righteous, we see that is it God whom is righteous alone. And so; what a privelidge it is to have the holiness of perfection work through us.

To be loving and to recognize it is something greayer than ourselves working through us, or even, to recognize it is God's Holy Spirit working through others to bring fruition to our hopes.

Jesus our Christ died to show that he did the Father's will. And this, is the key to being Christian. Believe in that truth, and that faithfulness will bear fruit for you eternally. Give thanks not for what is gained, but for what came at a cost.

Amen

Fear not

1 John 4:18 
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

---

As gentiles, that being everyone in the world who is not a temple Jew from the time before and during the time of Christ Jesus, as gentiles; we do not carry the opportunity to become perfected by knowledge. For gentiles, perfection comes through us, as we walk in our trepasses. So we are not 'made perfect in love'. Instead, our faith in our redemption, allows us to serve the will of God by having His Truth live within us, so we can serve the Father by doing His will. Which is, to love.

Again, love is shown to be greater than our natural disposition. Allow what is greater than your knowledge or your reasoning to guide your choices. Faith, is based in love, as is patience, kindness, and all the holy fruits.

There is no fear in love because love is not human, it is eternal, complete, and perfect. Fear is what gave way to the ideal of 'an eye for an eye'.

---

Matthew 5:38-39
38
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’
39
But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.

---

Matthew 5:43-45
43
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
44
But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
45
that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 

---

Fearless in love, is not allowing your instinctive reactions to defend this flesh or what you covet or take pride in. Fearless is seeing those who trespass against you as important to God as you are. This is exactly what Jesus was known for. He allowed his disciples to buy swords in fear, only to pick up the ear of the enemy and return it healed to the his body. His lessons are all complete, because he did his Father's will. He loved.

I have been known to say Fear God. Jesus said to love the Father with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. 

---

Romans 3:18-20
18
“There is no fear of God before their eyes.” 

19
Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God.
20
Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.

---

The role of the Holy Spirit is of the sword. The Holy Spirit supplies the fruits of the Eternal Truth. But a humble believer acknowledges that these traits, all based in love, recognize the Father as who is righteous alone. Those who see themselves as righteous since the ascension, claim love and all the fruits of the Holy Spirit as of them.

Please see now, the reason for these individuals to fear God. They do not recognize the Father as solely righteous. And the kingdom upon us, is a conscience that bears perfection. It will be claimed when Christ returns. And the witness of all since the ascension will recognize those who identify themselves as perfect, or, as having perfection work through them.

---

1 John 5:7-8
6
This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.

---

Of the lineage of Seth, of the cleansing baptism of Noah, Jesus became the Son of God, as his Spirit was promised to the Jews as a Messiah. But this is what is said about what happend:

---

Gospel of Thomas
43
1
His disciples said to him, "Who are you to say these things to us?" 
"You don't understand who I am from what I say to you.
Rather, you have become like the Judeans, for they love the tree but hate its fruit, or they love 
the fruit but hate the tree."

---

Be loving, by acknowledging it is holy and comes through you because of you believe God is love. Otherwise, you will find yourself having to confess it later.

Discernment

*I withdrew some commentary from the 'Dialogue of the Savior' and some from the gospel of Luke to bring this lesson to you.

We are in a generation where we see religions gathering into one, celebrating their unity, and considering it holy. This must come to be. We are in a generation where nations and kingdoms unite in a singular economic system that provides unity and in time a form of dominion they will claim as peace. This also must come to be. We are in a generation where the power and dominion will claim holiness as of the living flesh. This also must come to be.

But the truth is not acknowledged. And the holiness of the unseen qualities of God is being claimed as greatness that denies Him.

Selfish love, selfish goodness.

The selfish fruit of the governance in heavenly places. They did not know love nor goodness or wickedness would have never became. But the inability to act in faith of what the tree of truth offers eternally, bore a vine that became great but beared only bad fruit. Selfishness creates prides, power, authorities. Selfishness gains, where there should only be cost.

It is written down that the Savior said, "The lamp of the body is the mind."

What mind is lit by false light still guides those in darkness. It provides a path that is great, and wide. But the mind that carries this light only walks towards destruction. No light that offers gains for mind that it shines from, is true.

"Therefore, trust in me, my brethren; understand what the great light is. The Father has no need of me, for a father does not need a son, but it is the son who needs the father - though I go to him. For the Father of the Son has no need of you."

The true light of God is not something we can carry in full, instead it is something that by faith we can seek out when our heart is questioning.

"No one will be able to inquire about these things except for someone who has somewhere to put them in his heart."

So we seek the truth by the kingdom, in our sincerity, and our denied nothing. As those who seek in faith that which the knowledge of truth has shown us, honors the Father through His Son. This faithfulness shows the Father to be righteous alone.

Although the kingdom is near all mankind, and the fruits of the Holy Spirit are present, does not mean that heavenly and earthly beings recognize their origin, nor the cost they create when they supply these fruit for gain. Intentions in the darkness are guided by reactions which are guided by the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. None honor the Father, as they do not recognize His truth.

So what love is made a false love, and peace is made into a false peace. Because these fruits do not acknowledge the truth, and therefore; do not honor the Father in a way the great light recognizes. This is shared so 'that you do not lead your spirit or soul into error'.

Example 1:
A wife recieves a gift from her husband who gives it to her because he carries a flesh guilt for commiting adultery. He says, 'I love you'. She says, 'I love you'.

Example 2:
A minister of a church speaks openly about his love for his congregation, but complains in front of heaven and his wife about them bitterly.

Example 3:
In the midst of a passionate embrace, a spouse says, 'I love you'.

Now for examples of holiness

Example 1:
A man kills a child with his vehicle and later has the chance to ask forgiveness, and does so. The mother of the dead child accepts the opportunity to forgive, not wanting the man too suffer over the past. She prays thanks

Example 2:
A minister has had to sell his car to pay his rent, as his house is filled with the sick of heart, the blind, and the needy. He ministers to them with a sincerity deeper than ever before. He prays thanks.

Example 3:
A man beats his wife, as his heart is ill from terrors of his past. She gets up early, makes his breakfast, and prays for him to heal. She does this for ten years, and the beatings stop. She prays thanks.

Discernment in this context is recognizing not what is convenient, but what is holy. And if what comes through you benefits your self, it is not favor, it is not blessing, it is utterly wicked. Because it steals honor for not recognizing the truth and it hoardes praise that is meant for the Father, and it insults the Holy Spirit, whom bears witness to the holiness it provides.

So this makes judgement a bit more real. If I say 'I love', not because what it cost me, but instead, what I have gained; I am wicked in my heart, and worldly in my ways. Do not celebrate this in you. Repent power, put it aside, and do not return to it's gainfulness. Yes, forgiveness is real. Yes, harnessing forgiveness for the sake of prospering is wickedness. We have all done it, we all sin.

To love one another is not to celebrate your worldly relationships, it is to put them aside, and allow holiness to provide strength in your weakness. Love is clearly when it costs.

Luke 8:21
21
He replied, "My mother and brothers are those who hear God's word and put it into practice."

To be sober is to recognize the difference between holiness and worldliness. And the fruits of the Holy Spirit are the holiness that comes from faithfulness and sincerity. The ascension brought forth the Holy Spirit so that it would be made clear those who honor the Father and those who honor themselves. This is the division that heaven is witness to aswell. This is also how those who are true, can and will be able to clearly point out the wickedness in heavenly realms.

In closing, we find the truth is the strength in our weakness. We grow closer to the Father, the longer we stay on the path our Shephard provided us. Do not fall away by allowing yourself to remain worldly, letting what is holy be considered what is worldly. This curse of the truth is a sword that divides. Pay attention, moment to moment, to honor what should be honored, and humble what should be humbled.

The Kingdom and the Prayer

To know, and do nothing.

To have a conscience, and yet ignore it.

The weeping, and the gnashing of teeth.

This is the spiritual battle, that each day we pick up our armor for. Each day facing obstacles that keep us from having faith that holiness can act through us. A battle of conscience. To believe and to act, or to know, and do nothing.

When Jesus ascended, he was quite clear that he needed to ascend in order for the Holy Spirit to come down. In faith of this, we set ablaze this conscience of mankind. As the body of Christ, we believe the Holy Spirit can supply holiness through this conscience. And although we do not see it, this battle began with a great victory over death.

This existence of mankind is now kindled by the presence of the kingdom. It is not based on any religion, it is simply something that needs to be spread as good news. Jesus the Christ made it possible, by replacing the curse of the knowledge of good and evil, with the curse of eternal truth. This tree; is the fulfillment of what God had planned for mankind; to act in faith that love was a path to spirtual recognition of the Father.

To reconcile yourself to God, is to know him. To know him requires recognition of His Authority, and His Spirit. This is done by faith that His Authority reigns, and that His Spirit acts through that Authority by the conscience, or kingdom, that is provided. The Father recognizes the fruits of the Holy Spirit that come through you, as His own. This is how we know righteousness belongs to Him alone.

The sense of dominion is still present. The sense of love for one another is taking form. But a sober glance; sees that those whom seek influence and power over others, consider the fruits of the Holy Spirit as of the flesh, and of the individual/group. These are false teachers, and they provide nothing but a false claim. Yes, mankind can treat each other lovingly. But unless they recognize that the fruit is holy and of the Spirit that Jesus sent down, the fruit they bear only honors themselves-Amen.

We serve one another to show our faith can provide what we cannot alone. And this recognition, reconciles us through Christ Jesus, to the Father. It is not enough to be loving, if in doing so we honor only ourselves. And this is where the line is drawn.

The wedding. The bridegroom and the kingdom. Jesus will return and claim what he sent down. He will gather all the fruit that honor the tree that he provided, which is specifically the Holy Spirit, also known as the Spirit of Truth. Jesus will gather what is his by the promise the Father made to him.

And then, what is the kingdom of heaven will be closed to the conscience of this existence, and no longer will those who deny the truth, be able to enter. Which means the ability to love, or be kind, or gentle, or joyful, or good, or peaceful, or patient, or faithful, or to have self control; none will be supplied, and mankind will return into it's survivalist dominion.

The weeping, and the gnashing of teeth, is the dominion of death; of fear and destruction. Mankind will return to instinct, reactingbonly on what is placed before them. The blinding wall. And by this; angels will guide them into this fiery furnace, this, a living hell, for this is what must come to pass. Then all will know that God is what is righteous, and His kingdom; his heavenly conscience, is where the power of truth is crowned. And those outside the kingdom, those who are bound in a conscience of darkness, will be powerless to overcome it without mercy. Mercy, that if granted, honors and glorifies the Father from whom it will come.

God does not seek to destroy or abandon mankind. Ours, is the God of the living. God wants mankind to reconcile itself to him by faith, and if not by faith by recognition of His mercy.

By the kingdom we have the capacity to put ourselves aside and treat one another in ways we would have ourselves be treated. To by faith; put aside the guilt of this body, and step outside the sins of the flesh, and allow love to act through us.

Give breath to this prayer:

Almighty God, who is above all things:

Through your Holy Spirit, and by the kingdom set upon me, See faith work in me so your will can be done then through me, here, on earth as your will is done in heaven.

Give me this day my daily bread. As each day has it's own requirements, grant me the strength I need in my weakness from the perfection of your truth.

Forgive me my sin by the blood of your Lamb, and in my grace see me also forgive everyone who sins against me.

And leave me not to the temptation of the evil one, instead, deliver me from him. For the kingdom is yours. It's power; forever glorifying You as what is righteous.

Amen  


Sobriety is awareness, AWAKE!

Jesus, at a celebration of marriage, turned water into wine at the request of his mother. He did so, not so everybody could get drunk, but because it honored the will of God. Honor thy father and thy mother is a commandant of the Lord God. And Jesus did his Father's will.

---

Matthew 15:11
11
What goes into someone's mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them."

---

To suggest anything that is of creation is sinful; is a lie. Abuse of anything in creation by the individual, has some reason behind it. And that reason is; we do not have enough faith. We feel we are facing something alone. But the truth is with us, always with us. It is weakness; not enough faith, that keeps us enabling our desires. We all cry out in different forms. Weakness does not make us sin, weakness is a hurdle that the truth can help us overcome, so we can act beyond ourselves in loving service of others.

---

2 Corinthians 12:9
9
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

---

If someome who does not drink, says to someone who drinks often, that they are less a Christian, or they are sinning, the non drinker's judgement harms the sincerity of the drinker. The non drinker also place themselves in a position of wrongly judging the drinker.

But, if the person who drinks, drinks in front of a non drinker, they harm them:

---

Romans 14:12
12
So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.

13
Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.
14
I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for that person it is unclean.
15
If your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy someone for whom Christ died.
16
Therefore do not let what you know is good be spoken of as evil.
17
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,
18
because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and receives human approval.

19
Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.
20
Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.
21
It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother or sister to fall.

22
So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself by what he approves.
23
But whoever has doubts is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin. 

---

Do not allow yourselves to ignore the opportunity to be loving. Everything you consume, or do not consume, is beneath the need to be loving.

And lastly, anything you choose to consume, or to not consume to identify with yourself, is based on a lack of faith. It is these acts we choose to identify ourselves by. While, we should rely on the kingdom for our strength to be loving, and being loving is all of mankind's only path worthy of our day. Everything else is self serving, and destructive.

Ask yourself; are you being loving, or are you merely celebrating your desires by treating others on your own terms. Even pagans love their own. The difference is in faith of the truth of love. What you set aside to treat others as you would have yourself be treated. That is the strength the truth provides freely.

So whether you set aside something, or you set aside your judgement of others, what is important is that you surpass your human requirements and instead allow faithful loving acts to come through you.

Share this gospel of good news

Luke 24:39-43
39
One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him: “Aren’t you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!”

40
But the other criminal rebuked him. “Don’t you fear God,” he said, “since you are under the same sentence?
41
We are punished justly, for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong.”

42
Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom. ”

43
Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

A kingdom is a conscience. The Holy Spirit is the conscience, the kingdom that is here, available, to those who believe in the redeeming quality of the blood of the Lamb of God. Otherwise, the souls of human being are supplied with choices based on their knowledge of good and evil. The Kingdom upon believers is the same kingdom that is in eternal realms.

The body of believers is filled with variance, but the Kingdom works through them in the same way. What comes through each chosen is unique, though, it all comes from the head of this Kingdom. The head is the Holy Authority, Jesus the Christ, whom is the Word of God. Believers are the hands and legs, hearts and souls of this holiness in this generation.

The gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven is the final understanding that when shared, will prompt the end times. The kingdom gospel honors the Father through a believer's faith in the sacrifice of the Son. The Son of God did the will of the Father, and in doing so to completion, overcome death. What that means is the curse of this existence was replace in it's fulfillment. Replaced by the curse that Jesus became.

Jesus became the curse of the man hung on a tree. By doing so, he showed that the knowledge of good and evil could only be surpassed by acts of faith, and that these acts of faith showed the Father to be what is righteousness alone. The curse of the man hung on a tree was prophesy, a prophesy fulfilled by Jesus. The death of the flesh was unable to claim the soul that carried the truth of love. So Jesus rose from the dead, a new creation, perfected outside the garden of paradise, and thus; able to return.

Romans 5:17
17
For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

What is important here in this note, is the vitalness of the gospel of the Kingdom of heaven. 

God is love, His Son is His Truth.

It is loving acts done in faith of the truth our sins have been forgiven.

Any other gospel ignores the kingdom, the blood of the lamb, or, ignores the Holy Spirit. 'Do this..don't do that', we all sin. Deny yourself means; deny the acts that keep you from faith, which is when you instead act in the moment on your desire. It is not for us to focus on sin, it is for us to put aside our judgements and instead allow the holy fruits of the Spirit to come through us by the kingdom.

Go forward from this sharing this good news. Do not allow others to alter or supress in you what the Holy Spirit is, and how it came to be with us.
