LIVING ON A PURE CONSCIOUSNESS: WHICH ARE YOU – BEING A BODILY-RULED OR SPIRIT-RULED BELIEVER – IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!

It’s a high time if you are not, you become a SPIRIT-RULED and not BODILY-RULED Believer in Christ Jesus – Romans 8:1-3; 14-16; Galatians 5:16, 24-25. Being a BODILY-RULED Believer makes you a FIVE SENSE RULED person. That’s when your governing lead is by what you HEAR, SMELL, SEE, TASTE AND TOUCH. That keeps you in the flesh and carnality; and can easily be deceive by the ENEMY and COHORTS forces of this world. But when you are SPIRIT-RULED Believer, you are governed by the HOLY SPIRIT through the WORD of God, in His given cause and perspective in LIFE and GODLY LIVING. You define matters by the heavenly insights and foresights on the earthly affairs matters.

If I may ask now – are you a BODILY-RULED or SPIRIT-RULED in your day to day act of doing life and godly living?

May I remind you to know that Man as tripartite (triune) being, consisting 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 one being BODILY-RULED or 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

You are the ARCHITECT of your today and tomorrow; therefore, don’t SAY or WRITE something that your CONSCIENCE can’t live to stand stead by it, or and see, view or watch, or and give hearing ears to listen in doing both LIFE and GODLY LIVING. Make only the good happen by being a SPIRIT-RULED Believer in Christ Jesus. Amen.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“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.

“Holding the MYSTERY OF THE FAITH in a PURE CONSCIENCE” 1 Timothy 3:9.

“This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; 19 HOLDING FAITH, AND A GOOD CONSCIENCE; which some having put away concerning faith have made SHIPWRECK: 20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme” 1 Timothy 1:18-20.

“And herein do I EXERCISE myself, to have always a CONSCIENCE void of OFFENCE toward God, and toward men” Acts 24:16.

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are TRUE, whatsoever things are HONEST, whatsoever things are JUST, whatsoever things are PURE, whatsoever things are LOVELY, whatsoever things are of GOOD REPORT; if there be any VIRTUE, and if there be any PRAISE, THINK on these things” Philippians 4:8.

“For we ARE the circumcision, which WORSHIP God in the spirit, and REJOICE in Christ Jesus, and have NO CONFIDENCE in the FLESH (FIVE SENSES – SEE, HEAR, TASTE, TOUCH, SMELL)” Philippians 3:3 Emphasis Mine.

“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. 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 . . . 14 For as many as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” Romans 8:8-11, 14 (Emphasis Mine).

“And the very God of peace SANCTIFY you WHOLLY; and I pray God your WHOLE spirit and soul and body be PRESERVED BLAMELESS unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23.

“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.

MY AFTERTHOUGHTS – THINKING ALOUD: SPIRIT BEING TRAINING VS PHYSICAL BEING TRAINING – THE COST IN WORTH & EFFECT!

It’s time to take stock and consider your investment – daily, weekly, monthly and yearly – on your priceless SPIRIT BEING in comparison to your PHYSICAL BEING.

MAN IS A LIVING SPIRIT BEING; and there’s the need to know and understand for sure, in essence and context, that the MAN (non-gender in terms) in the HU-MAN that makes the being is a subconscious entity, and has an entity of consciousness which is the soul being, and together lives in an entity which is the HU (HUMUS), else, is clay, sand or dust – the body – the physical being which we all see. And these separate entities together makes the living HUMAN being.

The real you – the MAN being, is the being giving you life; and is eternal and lives by God’s BREATH and can’t die; while the BODY is your physical being, housing your spirit being, and it depends on OXYGEN to be alive, hence it’s subject to die – that means it can decay no matter what. And when it dies, the eternal spirit being MAN returns back to God while the decayed BODY return back to the HU (humus) of the HU-MAN – (clay, sand, dust). So what makes the real being is the MAN being of the HU-MAN being, which is the spirit being in you. Proverbs 20:27; Job 32:8; Job 33:4.

Have you intentionally consider what it does cost in TIME, EFFORT and FINANCE – and the corresponding and expected worth and effect on PHYSICAL TRAINING/EXERCISE for your physical well-being; you can only understand my concept and perception when you take note of the Tens, Hundreds, Thousands, Millions and Billions and such like financial cost that are spent respectively by individuals and or corporations, governments and charities – just to keep fit and to ensure a healthy physical well-being of the individual and society. And yes, in all these continuous investment in cost, the Scriptures does indicate, it ONLY PROFIT OR WORTH JUST A LITTLE IN PHYSICAL TERMS – which is relative in a way as to the whole outcome in terms of the CHARACTER and BEHAVIOURAL state of the Individuals and society at large.

And as a challenge, could you imagine such cost in TIME, EFFORT and FINANCE as in PHYSICAL BEING training is spent in terms, on the SPIRIT BEING training by – an Individuals, and or corporations, governments and charities. I mean the expected worth in returns in CHARACTER and BEHAVIOURAL state to Individual and society at large. Let say if and when 30 percent are invested in the TRAINING of the SPIRIT BEING MAN . . . I can assure how it will lead to the good and goodness of a COMPLETE and total WHOLENESS of the – spirit, soul and body. I can guarantee you that the consequential result will be enormous, incomprehensible and unimaginable; and it’s WORTH will have the PRESENT, FUTURE AND ETERNAL EFFECT in an individual and society at large for the good of all.

Today, take a look within you, in all your POSSESSIONS, how much of it defines your spirit man well-being in comparison to your physical well-being. That’s the essence of this post.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“. . . TRAIN YOURSELF TOWARD GODLINESS (piety), [keeping yourself SPIRITUALLY FIT]. 8 For PHYSICAL TRAINING is of some value (useful for a little), but godliness (SPIRITUAL TRAINING) is USEFUL and of value in EVERYTHING and in EVERY WAY, for it HOLDS promise for the PRESENT life and also for the life which is to COME.” 1 Timothy 4:7-8 (Amplified).

“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you COMPLETELY; and may your WHOLE spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 5:23 NKJV

“But there is a spirit in MAN, And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES him understanding” Job 32:8 NKJV

“The Spirit of God has MADE me, And the BREATH of the Almighty GIVES me life” Job 33:4 NKJV

“The spirit of a MAN is the LAMP of the Lord,SEARCHING all the INNER DEPTHS of his HEART” Proverbs 20:27 NKJV

“He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of divine purpose] in the HUMAN HEART [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified).
