Light and darkness are the two qualities this creation was created out of… Man being given dominion over that light and darkness could only bring forth out of that light and that darkness and manifest what he found therein…. Question being; Where did that darkness come from..? Scripture does answer this also, but that’s a subject for another day….. Blessings my fellow follower of His, Not me

Blessings as we bring forth the good, Not me

Genesis 1:26 (NASB20) Then God said, “Let Us make mankind in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the livestock and over all the earth, and over every crawling thing that crawls on the earth.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In this scripture is put forth why there is evil in this world…. Seeing how this world was created out of the light and the darkness of the first day…. Man given rule over this created mixture could bring forth what there was to bring forth, that being either the light or the darkness…. If man would bring forth the light, that being the good this world was created out of, the good would be manifested and all the ramifications of that good…. But if man chose to bring forth the evil the same being true, evil would be manifested and all the fruit of that evil…. Case in point; If man chooses to spend all his income on that which is not profitable and his offspring grows up without, and sees someone who’s parents chose not to spend their income on that which was not profitable but on that which was, covetousness would be brought forth, being, wanting what belongs to another…. Then that one’s offspring sees that one’s lack, and lies, cheats, kills to have that which belongs to another, henceforth lying, cheating, killing would take the place of doing that which is right to bring forth those things that make for life… Then as generations come and generations go, more and more darkness would be manifested and the fruit of that darkness because man was given rule over this world and could bring forth that which he chose to bring forth, that being either the light or the darkness this world was created out of…. On the other hand if man would choose to bring forth the good and subsequent generations bring forth the good, life and those things that are good for life would be manifested…. Henceforth to this day man has a choice, he can bring forth either the light or the darkness, i.e., the good or the evil….. To the bringing forth of the light and the good this world was created out of so those things that make for life might be manifested….. Unto the good be our lives, a fellow follower of His, Not me

May we all be blessed in experiencing that liberty…. Many blessings, Not me

Hi, if I might be so bold, it is all wrapped up in one knowing that when Christ died on the cross He took them to death with Him… For in that knowing are all the liberties, freedoms, and blessings to be found… May we all be blessed in that knowing, a fellow servant of His, Not me

May we all be blessed by that ‘seed of promise’ coming to full growth to the praise of His glory…. Blessings, a fellow follower, Not me

Thank you for putting forth of your understanding, I hold true that Galatians is contrasting serving God by self effort vs faith, seeing how self is always under the law being joined with Christ in His death brings forth that liberty we are to stand in… May we all be blessed in that standing that brings forth that liberty…. A fellow servant of His, Not me
-
Galatians 5:1 (NKJV) Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What is this liberty that one is instructed to stand fast in…? It is the liberty that any dead man has from all the entanglements of this world….. For as free as any dead man is, that is as free as every believing one is, if indeed the believing one will believe into their death and resurrection with Christ…. For the yoke of bondage is the yoke of selfhood that one is freed from by being joined with Christ in His death on the cross…. For believers are to believe something and this something is that Christ is the Savior of the world, He became the Savior of the world by being the Head of a new creation of people, this group of people becomes this new creation by believing into their death and resurrection when Christ died and was raised from the dead…. Henceforth they are called believers because they believe what is true, that Christ did indeed die for them that they might be born again into a new creation…. For it is the strength and depth of one believing this that will determine how much of Christ will be formed in one…. For Christ being formed in one is the end all of the Christian faith, for it will determine how much of Christ one will be able to express, manifest and enjoy for all of eternity…. It is that critical of a belief for all things hang on one believing into Christ, for of one would go on with God one must of all necessity believe both in their death and resurrection with Christ, that the old might die and the new come to life…. Be blessed all in the death of the old and the new coming to life….. A fellow believing one believing into their death and resurrection with Christ… In His love, Not me….

Hello, and someone is being taught from above with Godly wisdom and well on their way to getting their ‘well done’ ….. Be blessed in being that someone…. Unto Him, Not me

So true, to Him be all things, blessings, Not me

Yes, to anything that would bring us before Him in humility…. As far as Paul’s thorn, scripture reads; 2 Corinthians 12:7 (KJV)b “………there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, ………” I hold true that scripture tells us what it was, being, ‘a messenger of Satan to buffet him’… My thinks, may you be blessed in yours… Blessings Farouk, as we learn of Him, a fellow learner, Not me

2 Corinthians 12:9 (NASB20) And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What weakness is being extolled as that which is necessary for His power to dwell in one...? It is the weakness of when one comes to the end of oneself, for it being the weakness that humbles one before God…. For it is this weakness of when one truly sees from the bottom of one’s heart one is undone, without strength, when one sees that of a truth nothing good dwells in one…. It is from this place, this place of total weakness that faith raises its head as that faith that saves, this faith that looks to Christ to be its All and All….. It is from this place where one’s sees the corruption that is oneself, than the humbling that comes from one knowing of one’s weaknesses, for it is this knowing that leads one’s eyes to look to Christ…. It is from this place that the power of God works in one according to the strength and depths of that one’s looking to Christ….. For it is in the seeing from the truth that it is the fall into this life of this materiality that is our separation from God, it being the earth created out of the light and the darkness of the first day….. For this light and darkness being both the good and the evil this creation was created out of…. For our salvation is a real pulling of one, out of the darkness into the light in the time of this life, being, the humbleness caused by seeing one’s weaknesses meeting His strength in the realm of faith….

Hello and thank you, and many are the blessings as patience has its perfect work in all those that would be willing to allow the letting…. Oh that our hearts might embrace the letting the more, for unto Him be all things… Blessings from a fellow follower, Not me

James 1:4 (NKJV) But let patience have [its] perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Why do the words of truth put such a high value on patience having its perfect work….? It is because patience is the work horse of faith, being that patience is that that causes one’s eyes to turn away from themselves and look to Christ…. For this is the work of patience, for no other work is of more consequence in the believer’s life then getting one’s eyes off of oneself and onto Christ…. For this is the great lesson of patience, keeping one’s eyes off of anything other then Christ…. For if truth be known, whatever has one’s heart becomes that one’s god, patience being the work horse of faith that destroys the other that would take one’s eyes off of Christ… For patience waits for God to do something in one that that one cannot do for oneself, this something being, the forming of Himself in the believing one…. For this is what the salvation offered in Christ is, the forming of the Divine nature in the believing one, this new nature’s nature is not to sin just as the fallen nature’s nature was to sin….. For this new life, is that life that is created in the image and likeness of God, being the Three in one having Their image and likeness manifested in the creature, the Is, the expression of the Is, and the effect or consequence of that Is… For this word patience is translated, steadfastness, perseverance, endurance in other translations, all pointing to the same truth of maintaining the keeping and the looking to Christ regardless of any and all circumstances of life…. For it is when faith sees that righteousness does exist and it is the manifesting of this righteousness which is the manifestation of God’s will in all things… Patience being that work of faith that brings forth this manifestation of righteousness…. For without the manifestation of righteousness being manifested in one’s life the Divine nature is not being brought forth, in other words, Christ is not being formed in one… For patience’s perfect work is the bringing forth of the perfect image of this perfect Three in One God in one, each having Their respective image brought forth…. Oh that the heart of man would let patience have its perfect work, for the bringing forth of that expression of righteousness which is the Divine nature being brought to life in one… To him that would have it be done, let it be done unto….

Luke 9:23 (NASB20) And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow Me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What part of our salvation are the words ‘take up his cross’ meant to portray…? The simplicity that is in Christ Jesus makes our salvation as simple as believing what God has said He did for mankind… This, what God said He did for mankind is believing that when Jesus died on the cross for the sins of the world He did this by taking all of mankind with Him to death…. Thereby fulfilling the law that says, ‘the soul that sins that soul shall die’…. For mankind’s death with Christ on the cross is how Christ fulfilled the law concerning man, thereby God can be ‘both just and the justifier of him that has faith in Jesus’….. For to the degree and depth one believes this truth, to that degree and depth will that one walk in newness of life… For taking up one’s cross is one willingly taking their place, by faith, on the cross of Christ with Him, grabbing onto His death as one’s own…. Taking up one’s cross is meant to portray this faith that would willingly grab unto His death as one’s own death rather than sin…. For this is the purpose of this faith to free one from the power of sin that one was born under when they were born into this world…. For one’s death does free one from all the power that sin has over the believer, it is this willingness to believe in one’s death with Christ on the cross that is the faith that frees…. For this faith that is willing to die rather than sin is the faith that will experience Christ being formed in one, it being the new creation that sins not…. For it, the new creation is a new life that Christ needs to bring to life in one, this life man himself can not bring to life, but is something Christ can and will do if man will accept the salvation offered in Christ and choose to be dead on the cross with Christ…. Thereby as scripture says, ‘take up one’s cross daily’, meaning, that by faith remain on that cross through all the circumstances of life…. For this is the one and only way to be made free from all the influences of one’s fallen nature, which nature has been separated from one by one’s death on the cross with Christ…. For the believer is to live by faith, that faith being that when Christ died on the cross He took all with Him to death, taking up one’s cross is by faith holding onto this truth that He might bring to life in one the new creation without the hands of self tainting it with that which self can do, or, in other words, ‘that which is not of faith’… For our salvation is a free gift, it can have nothing of self in it so one might not glory in oneself but in what Christ Himself has done in and for one…. The cross being that place of separation, blessed are they that do indeed embrace by faith their death in Christ, for the salvation offered in Christ as a living reality will be experienced by the faith that so grabs unto this taking up one’s cross and by faith trusting Christ to live His life in and through, being that life that sins not…. For if one is not grabbing onto their death in Christ one is not taking up their cross and is leaving something on the table that was meant to be experienced by the believing one…. To the experiencing of the freedom of the new life that the cross brings to life in the believing one….. Unto Him, Not me

I would wholeheartedly agree with you, I hold true this is the truth being brought forth in; 1 Corinthians 4:4 (NASB20) For I am not aware of anything against myself; however I am not vindicated by this, but the one who examines me is the Lord. Paul was not aware of thing against himself, but just because he wasn’t aware of anything didn’t mean he did have any, then he goes on to say it is the Lord that is the One to say…. Many blessings as today, (Lord willing), we walk in more righteousness than yesterday, and tomorrow more still… To the growing in Him, a fellow grower, Not me
