We Are The Enemy!

We are the enemy and trying to lift ourselves up in this world brings death to the soul.

Heb.11
[6] But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a retarder of them that diligently seek him.

Hebrews 13:[8] Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
[9] Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart is established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.

Meats are the strange doctrines in the natural because they have no nourishment to their bodies or doing they bring about the spiritual mind of God they can be good to the flesh not knowing the evidence of the things hoped for from the spirit.

Matt.4 [4] But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeded out of the mouth of God.
We must be born of the spirit and learn to operate in his gifts !
1Cor.3 [1] And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
[2] I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
[3] For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as man.

Meat is sound doctrine with no unleavened bread in these two scriptures go together !! Bread is the word and there a two types Meat and Milk. There are many with eye’s to see but cannot see and ears to hear but can’t here. Blessed our ears for they hear blessed are our eyes for they see. They have seared minds or Carnal.
Ezek.12 [2] Son of man, thou dwells in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious

Rom.8 Verses 7 to 9 [7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
[8] So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
[9] But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.[10] And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

[11] But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you.

Our biggest enemy is our natural minds that are not subject to the law of God and neither indeed can be. If we stop shadow boxing at everything else we can identify the real enemy and defeat him.

Gal.5[17] For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.Gal.5 Verses 22 to 23

[22] But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

[23] Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

1John.2 Verses 15 to 17
[17] And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abides for ever.

I pt 2:9 A chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light:
10] Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy

We are the marvelous light and so was Jesus. Jesus was a common man but he didn’t make himself of any reputation. He didn’t come to impress people.

He was not a citizen or have a connection with outside people just the 12 Apostles except when he was around them. Even to Peter and Apostles he spoke in parables, and they really didn’t know him until he was Resurrected and then sent back the Comforter to lead a guide us. Without the baptism of Holy Ghost and the evidence of God’s heavenly language we cannot see the Kingdom of God.

We were Gentiles in the flesh and considered by the Jews to be dog’s or heathen, when it came to the knowledge of God !
Eph.2
[14] For he is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of partition between us; We are all God’s people if we live for him and race has nothing to do with it. God has no respect of color he himself graphed us in. We can be a spiritual man]= if we strive diligently.

We are about circumcision of the heart or mind that causes us through the power of God to quicken or mortal selves or mind.

Rom.8 Verses 7 to 11 [7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
[8] So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

[9] But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

[10] And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

[11] But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you.

Gal.5[9] A little leaven spoil the whole lump. We must have sound doctrine not doctrines of Devil’s or commandants of men. They worship God in vanity.

Mark.7[7] Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.0

Matt.7 [13] Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
[14] Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Heb.13 [9] Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein. This is talking about people in his Body of Christ also ! grace is his favor yet it is by his grace or his understanding that we are a chosen people like being the bible teaches. Words like genuine, authentic, far off but made nye unto God we have been converted and Baptized into one spirit. God is a spirit, Jesus was a spirit, the Holy Ghost is God’s spirit given to his Body or church as a gift through Jesus death burial and resurrection. It is like running a race and we pass the Patton to each other through the men who were sent by God. All of them not just one. This people were in God’s mind before he formed the heaven’s and earth.

John 2:15 [15] And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables;

Isa.288] For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.

Prov.13\18] Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuses instruction: but he that regards reproof shall be honored.
1Sam.15
[22] And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

[23] For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou has rejected the word of the LORD, he has also rejected thee from being king.

1John.2
[15] Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

[16] For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

[17] And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides for ever.

When we Identify the identity of the flesh then we can Identify the spirit and be able to discern the spirit ! We become a new creation and we become the Bride of Christ in Rev 14 and sing a new song before the throne. We must be redeemed from the spirit in the flesh into the spirit of a living God.
Translated Transformed Transparent and Transfigure into the likeness of Jesus a perfect man and we must stand in the fullness of life on this earth until we change bodies like mentioned in

I Cor 15:35 to 50 Two types of Bodies one his earthly or Carnal or temporal the other is spiritual or Eternal or everlasting.

Col.1 [12] Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:

Phil.3 Verses 13 to 14 [13] Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
[14] I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

2Tim.4 Verses 7 to 8 [7] I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
[8] Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

We were taught that words mean something that why it is important to use the King James . I remove the eth’s and add S lol other than that I believe what we teach will Perfect us unto a Perfect man. We must use the five w’s when, what, why, who, and where and sometimes how. Also in II Timothy 2:15 we must study ourselves approved unto God.

2Tim.2 [15] Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Eph.4
[13] Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ

1John.2 Verses 15 to 17
[17] And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abides for ever
