I shall continue to add advice to this page.
I would like to enlighten those who concider themselves concerned about spiritual truth.
The epitome of sin is not what we do in act,but what we dont have. Seperation is not so much being here & God being there, but the glory not a part of us.
The glorified body is transfigured into the sinless form, a spiritual body.
It may sound arogant to say, but true: The majority of christianity is held captive by a hard heart, carnal mind, pride; different ways of describing an attitude not as the faith of little children.
We learn so much , yet we look on the outward man and make judgements , while saying we do not judge, yet we do because we talk about things on the level of "see , hear, touch, taste, & regular comprehension". These things prevent us from the true real deep things of God.
It is so common to say we are not to dress this way or style our hair that way, and such ; thinking we are to magnify "not drawing attention to ourselves" , but ! Haveing that mindset so rooted in us actually keeps our attention on "us" : We can focus of resisting so soundly that we actually focus on what we hope to resist, making us more quilty then those we speak of in that mindset.
This is an example of hard heartedness pride, blindness; & I hope you were humble when you began reading it so you could comprehend, and not neglect.

We are not in a glorified body. The deceitfullness of sin is not to do with things done wrong, but to do with our thoughts conceived in this body of sin, no matter how sanctified and righteous we think we are.
I hope to stir up consciousness or at least the dawning of light in where we really are. The attitude of our mind is not easily known of our own self, not even after being spiritual for many years. I put this forth; that it takes a special gift to bring out those kind of revelations , and, it takes an individual genuinely wanting to receive that kind of revelation.
This what I share is a measuring rule for all the ability to obtain enlightenment.
The theme is to bring out the awareness of what the human mind is normally being abart from a perfect spirit body.
People think and say dumb things thinking they are right, because we see things in darkness, not like God does, in the light.
The common saying " bringing attention to yourself" is an example of how humans confuse themselves and still think they are right.
People get entrapped in stupid things like telling their children not to put their hands in their pockets.
Ignorance abounds in all places, no matter how kind and understanding we try to be.
When He returns, and we put on that glorious body, we shall be like Him seeing him as he is; being like him, we shall be in full knowledge as he is in glory, not as we are: even in Christ we still only see the light (reality) like looking through a dark blury thick glass.
His ways & thoughts are above ours.
This is the main essence or epitome of sin, not the practice of things we call sin. We do things that are sin because we are in a body of sin ( or you could say , in a body seperated from the glory, the all knowing consciousness of how God is)
So what I am pointing out is to recognise how easily we do have a hard heart, or pride, as stated earlier on these things : Like Jesus told his disciples to be aware of the bread of the pharasees and priests, and the disciples reasoning among themselves that he said it because they didnt bring bread to eat. He refered to them as having hard hearts; these are examples of how subtle our reasoning can actually blind us from the truth in light.
It is my main goal to bring out this information so people can be more able to judge themselves to better enable God to bless.
Satan walks about seeking whom he may devour; Whild God walks among us seeking whom He can bless ; God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble. The more we can see how the deceitfullness of sin is in operation, the more equipted we are to operate as God would have us.
The more humble people are, the better they will be able to see, That , that which is perfect, has not happened yet; that verse does not mean the cannonising of the bible. There are quotes even of Jesus, not to mention loads of references in the OT about books that we do not even know their whereabouts, Beings there is still need for miracles, and because we dont find instruction in the bible of who God would have us marry, where to go & such, we still need prophecy; those who are still blinded by fear of gifts as such do not want to believe they still exist. It's easier to hide our head in the sand than learn to operate in spiritual gifts. But hardness of heart will present unbelief, thus blocking God from doing His will in blessing.
I am not refering to things we do or think that cause problems, but defining the human condition , even to the saved.
When we get a better understanding of what it is to be seperate from glory, we can be all the more careful to give attention to the Lord of glory, In a light of humility and trust, that better aligns us as recipiants for more of Him, So I repete my message this time again, trying to drive the word forth .
I shall likely tell the same thing many ways till I feel the meat of the message rings clear, then it is up to each of us to walk in that light in order not to walk in darkness.
TEACHING:
There is a big difference between a ministy gift of tongues, and the general ability of tongues.
When the bible talks about speaking in tongues only by 3 at the most, and only with someone present with the gift of interpreting tongues; It is talking about a ministry gift, that is in use at the church gathering, and is accompanied by interpretation which equals prophecy.
This is not the same as the ability to speak in tongues. Everyone who has been baptized in the Holy Spirit has the ability to speak in tongues, and is used for edifying their own self, for praying Gods will, for worship to God, and as a sign to the unbeliever, and if you practice in faith the interpretation , you can use it to minister to others of different languages.
Understand MERCY !
Here I will tell you something that is not common to hear.
Most preachers will tell you that if you die before getting born again, you will never get a chance to go to heaven, that you will go to eternal hell.
I must tell you, that God's love is much deeper and stronger and wiser than this type of preacher.
The only way a person can be saved, is to have the Holy Spirit witness to their own spirit that God is real, and the gospel is true. Confessing that Jesus is Lord all day long everyday will not birth you into the Kingdom of God anymore than praying to a brass doorknob.
Jesus said that the only thing that authenticates genuine salvation is a personal revelation from the Father that Jesus is the Messiah sent from God; Not because some man told you.
Now if some man tells you, and you humbled yourself in the fear of the Lord, being open to hear from God; Then the Holy Spirit can put authority on a mans words for you to recognize, and that would be an authentic revelation from the Father.
But! If you seriously genuinely were never sure about what to think about God and Jesus; That would be sincere ignorance, and the bible says God has mercy on the ignorant. The ignorant can escape hell, because Jesus paid for the sins of the world, But, if you get the conviction from the Spirit about Jesus and continue to reject it too long, then that is why God would have to reject you , and the only other place in eternity for you would be hell.
Fact of the matter, There are not many people who will be able to trust in that genuine ignorance thing though; I meerly tell you this to explain the truth of Gods mercy on those who never truely got a chance to know God before they died ; God can even judge them by how they reacted towards enlightened mature christ anointed people on earth; If they loved and accepted someone like that, Gods word says it's as if they accepted Jesus, and they didn't even know it.
But for YOU ! You are here reading and seeing these truths, and if you are searching and seeking; You then will find, if you havn't already, and being humble will continue to find more, and have much reason to rejoice, seeing in your spirit the things God has laid up in store for you.
The following was added on 11/17/04
There is, in my site called "Spirit Links" some very strong corrections about some serious err in different church's.
None of this I minister, is for an intent of causing any slpit or division or disunity. If anyone is led to follow in those ways, they do so by God leading them; I hope for unity and understanding of truth and the love of them, to be seen an accepted by all; but would never settle for less than the truth in the false name of peace, as it can be falsly presented, trying to look as if the Spirit were more interested in unity than truth. I must stand and present truth; As Jesus himself is Truth. We can "think" we hold to truth, and hold to ignorance, rejecting truth, mostly because of religious tradition, and not what the heavenly real truth is.
So, I am not "against The Catholic church, or any denomination, like Baptist; Only, I minister, that which I received .
As you examine my different sections in this site; It is good to keep this message here in mind.
FEAR GOD !

Examine trouble in the world!
Those who follow denominational doctrine are as he who was of the bondwoman of Gal 4:23 ; A genuine humble spirit led person is as of the Freewoman "of promise" like "which things are an allegory"
Two covenants express the difference between carnlity, in or of the flesh; And true spirituality of God in the Spirit.
Those who hold to religious denominational doctrine persecute, or should I say, bring railing accusation (being contrary to the Spirit) against the true Spiritual; Calling us who are of such, "self appointed"; While actually, those who make the accusation do it from a self appointed position; Not being appointed or called of God in such; But do so of their own natural carnal minds. These also will be quick to accuse the Spiritual, of "private interpretation" While those words mean : One mans own idea; So; the ones who put forth Gods words get railed upon, and those who accuse of such are the actual guilty ones; because their accusation is of their own carnal mind, and not of the Spirit of God.
These things are of utmost importance for the body of Christ to take heed.

The "faith of a little child" Jesus spoke of, can not be valid for us without becoming born again
Once you are born of Gods Spirit, the attitude of being Gods adopted child becomes natural by your new nature, by His Spirit in you. A child will reach up to it's daddy and as it's written "cry abba Father" That's the faith of a little child; A little child knows it is in need of daddy. Jesus refered to this; "Unless the branch abides in the vine" You see, No matter how we appear to others, If we are not joined together with Gods Spirit through the faith of Jesus Christ, we can do nothing; If we are joined together to God by His Spirit in us through the faith of Jesus, we know we can not please God on our own, we cry out to Father God: He hears and responds to that kind of person.
