Part 16 of: Identifying the fruits of the Spirit

So sad; but so true!!!! Most people read the Word of Elohiym as if all the good parts have already happened unto them. For example; most will quote the 6th verse of the 2nd chapter of the scroll of Ephesians which reads from the King James Bible in these words: El Shaddai hath raised us (saints) up together (with the risen, anointed Savior), and made us (saints) sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. What people really refuse to admit is this; the Word of Yehovah in some places is still prophetic; just because you’re able to read it out of Elohiym’ Word, it does not mean it has come to pass yet. Even the 12th verse of the 13th chapter of the First scroll of Corinthians awakens us to these words from the Amplified Bible: now [in this time of imperfection, being the 2018th year] we see in a mirror dimly and the mirror is the Word of Yehovah [a blurred reflection, a riddle, a mystery, a paradox], but then [when the time of perfection comes at the return of the Lord Himself, we will see reality] face to face. Now (at this very moment) I know in part [just in fragments], but then (as the Lord’s return) I will know fully, just as I have been fully known [by God]. In saying that, as we take a look into the Amplified Bible; yes, at same 6th verse of the 2nd chapter of the scroll of Ephesians, it would read: El Shaddai raised us (saints) up together with the risen Savior [by faith, when we believed], and seated us (saints, by faith) with (the risen Savior, the Messiah, by faith) in the heavenly places, [because we saints are] in Christ Jesus. As we said before, this scripture the 6th verse of the 2nd chapter of the scroll of Ephesians is prophetic; because the 7th verse of the 5th chapter of the Second scroll of Corinthians makes it clear with these words: for we walk by faith, not by sight. The real meaning of this same 7th verse of the 5th chapter of the Second scroll of Corinthians is: no doubt, be occupied by reason of assurance (called faith) unworthy in appearance. In other words; you can’t collect off of your assurance, for the walk you have been and are occupied with now; until you’re out of physical view. The Complete Jewish study Bible worded it with these words: for we saints of today, being the 2018th year, live by trust, not by what we see. If we keep this 7th verse of the 5th chapter of the Second scroll of Corinthians in context with the rest of the earlier verses; they are speaking of (us saints) being absent from the physical body of death; which has and are holding us (saints) prisoners, as we travel; how ever long you lived so far in Christ. So standing on the promises (assurance) of having a heavenly body waiting for us (saints); that we (saints) would not be found naked, after being forced (by death-as teaches the 27th verse of the 9th chapter of the scroll of Hebrews) to move out of our first clothing of skins, in which Elohiym Himself clothed mankind in, as shows the 21st verse of the 3rd chapter of the scroll of Genesis which were and is our terrestrial bodies. If we keep our eyes on the prize of receiving a crown of life (which is our insurance policy). Nevertheless, the 5th verse of the 5th chapter of the Second scroll of Corinthians is speaking of both the terrestrial; in which we are desiring to be absent from; so, we would be clothed with our celestial bodied, called our house from heaven; and our mortality being swallowed up of life. Which would finally bring it to pass; we being in Christ’s presence; for we are not able to overlook the 6th verse of the 5th chapter of the Second scroll of Corinthians makes it plain when Paul says: so then, being always filled with good courage and confident hope, and knowing that while we (saints) are at home in the (physical-terrestrial;) body (of death-as Paul calls it in the 24th verse of the 7th chapter of the scroll of Romans; in which mankind received in the 21st verse of the 3rd chapter of the scroll of Genesis called skins), we (saints of today, being the 2018th year) are absent (which is being in a state or region) from the Lord. Newsflash, our celestial bodies do not arrive until the Lord Himself returns; that’s when He will quicken our mortal bodies by His Spirit (which actually will be fulfilling the prophetic word of us being born again) as teaches the 11th verse of the 8th chapter of the scroll of Romans with these words: if the Ruach Hako’desk of Elohiym WHO RAISED Yeshua FROM THE PHYSICAL STATE OF DEATH, lives in saints, the Ruach Hako’desh who raised the Messiah from a physical death will also give life to your mortal (dying- terrestrial-physical) bodies through Elohiym’ Ruach Hako’desh (which is the Holy Spirit), who lives in you; this is what becoming spiritual truly means. Right now, as you’re reading this food for thought; your whole journey with El Shaddai is ONLY BY FAITH!!!! In saying that; faith’s adversary is not fear: faith’s adversary is being comfortable and familiarity: even familiarity got Lot’s wife to look back, to become forever stuck on her true God given journey of deliverance (even as so many in time past and today have and are). It was familiar which attacked Peter’s faith, which caused him as the next leader to say, I go a fishing (temporality abandoning his election in Christ). It was familiar with greed, that got Judas Iscariot to go to the chief priests and betray Yeshua, for thirty pieces of silver. It’s being comfortable, and recognition that got Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to say, is not this great Babylon, in which I, have built (which was a period of success; not a period of failure)? Even as it was back then, these two enemies of faith will lead a anointed delivered person in the Lord, quickly into deep darkness without them even willing to admit it (even while they are still partially on the trail). This is where the stronger than the strong man is needed desperately; and you must be willing to agree with the stronger, and eschew your familiar strong man; that’s if your mind ever desires to undergone metamorphosis which truly takes place inward first; Selah!!!! This is what verses 1-3 of the 2nd chapter of the scroll of Ephesians is making known unto us, in these words from the Amplified Bible: you [the Holy Ghost made alive when you] were [spiritually] dead and separated from Elohiym (when He called out in the 9th verse of the 3rd chapter of the scroll of Genesis; where art thou?) because of your transgressions and sins, in which you once walked. You were following the ways of this world [influenced by this present age; like the nations round about you], in accordance with the prince of the power of the air (Satan), the spirit who is now at work in the disobedient [the unbelieving, who fight against the purposes of God and ask for a king, to be like everyone else]. Among these [unbelievers] we all once lived in the passions of our flesh [our behavior governed by the sinful self-], indulging the desires of human nature [without the Holy Spirit] and [the impulses] of the [sinful] MIND. We were, by nature, children [under the sentence] of [God’s] wrath, just like the rest [of mankind]. This is why flesh and blood will not, nor cannot inherit the kingdom of Heaven; neither is it subject to it. In pausing here, it’s to give you time to search these truths out; for enough has been said, that has been said before, which should cause you to say hmm again!!! We will continue in our next food for thought, until then, sayonara!!!!!
