LIVING ON A PURE CONSCIOUSNESS: NOT ‘BEING BODILY-RULED’ BUT ‘BEING SPIRIT-RULED’ BELIEVER IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!
“Holding the MYSTERY of the FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.
It’s a high time if you ARE not, for you to become – “BEING SPIRIT-RULED BELIEVER” in Christ Jesus stead and not “BEING BODILY-RULED BELIEVER” in Christ Jesus stead – Romans 8:1-3; 14-16; Galatians 5:16, 24-25.
“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of OFFENCE toward God, and toward men” Acts 24:16.
For “BEING BODILY-RULED BELIEVER” makes you a FIVE SENSE RULED person. That’s when your governing perception, guidance and leads in decision making is by what you – HEAR, SMELL, SEE, TASTE AND TOUCH/FEEL – and that keeps one in the flesh and carnality – a lust and affection individual; and as such, one can easily be DECEIVE by the ENEMY and COHORTS forces of this world.
But when you are “BEING SPIRIT-RULED BELIEVER”, you are governed by the HOLY SPIRIT through the WORD of God and the flesh of the senses subjugated, in God’s given cause and perspective in Christ Jesus, in all matters of doing LIFE and GODLY LIVING. And you can then define matters by the heavenly perception insights and foresights on the any subject in earthly affairs decision making.
If I may ask today and now as a Believer in Christ Jesus – Are you BEING BODILY-RULED or BEING SPIRIT-RULED in your day to day act of doing life and godly living in Christ Jesus?
May I remind you to know that Man as tripartite (triune) being, consists of – Body, Soul and Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:23 and Hebrews 4:12-13); and each respond differently for various reasons. The response and results depends on if one is BEING BODILY-RULED or BEING SPIRIT-RULED.
And in the words of Dr Kenneth Hagin Snr of blessed memory, which I equally agreed to, I can say that:
* FEELING is the VOICE of the BODY.
* REASON is the VOICE of the SOUL
* CONSCIENCE is the VOICE of the SPIRIT.
“Now the END of the commandment is CHARITY (LOVE) out of a PURE HEART, and of a GOOD CONSCIENCE, and of FAITH UNFEIGNED” 1 Timothy 1:5 Emphasis Mine.
And you are the ARCHITECT and CUSTODIAN of your today and tomorrow; therefore, don’t SAY or WRITE something that your CONSCIENCE can’t live to stand steady by it, or and see, view or watch, or and give the hearing ears to listen to everyway, in doing both LIFE and GODLY LIVING.
It’s my earnest PRAYERS that God’s good, will good happen by being a SPIRIT-RULED Believer in Christ Jesus. Amen.
SELAH – PAUSE And THINK.

“So then they that are in the FLESH (Bodily-Ruled) cannot please God. 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit (Spirit-Ruled), if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.

“For the WORD of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the DIVIDING asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13.
“For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. 16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ” 1 Corinthians 2:11-16.
