WORDS SHOW FORTH THE SPIRIT OF THE MAN

[Fewarechosen7F]

John the apostle began his Book of the Gospel with a look back at the way things were in the beginning of creation. Like Yeshua before him, John was also leaving an inheritance of the knowledge and understanding that had been bestowed upon him to each man or woman who would choose to become a disciple in the kingdom of heaven.

Jo 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

God is spirit. The origin of all things was spirit, the audible word that God spoke in the beginning. And every word that God spoke was in agreement with the heart of God, and every word that God spoke was God in action, Spirit in action.

Jo 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.

God breathed into man a portion of his spirit, words. Originally, men had only God

Anne,

Not sure I understand this, Care to explain a little further about the enlightenment ? Also, who those were that were ignorant of God's laws?

" After the fall of man, enlightenment even shined from within men who were ignorant of divine laws, but because they were lacking in knowledge about divine laws, they did not understand the importance of being educated concerning the things God."

Thanks,

Rick

Few: You're a little over my head, too.

I have a hard time taking every word literally. You should hear my husband and I when we're "horsing around" with each other.

There'd have to be some provision for context of words...For example: Play.

When we're little children, we invent ourselves using words.

Now, as adults we still play. Play suggests that we are normal, healthy, balanced individuals.

I don't think we can ever be too dogmatic about the "words" we speak because you'd be living your whole life walking on egg shells. It's too easy to go to extremes.

I believe it's not so much the "words" we speak as the motives behind the words.

One can speak flattering words but their intent be devious. It's the human heart God weighs and considers. JMO.

Anne,

I really do not want to offend you, but I feel that your interpretation of John 1:1-5 is fraught with errors. I hope you take my responses as exhortation and correction, rather than trying to pick you apart. I understand that you are seeking enlightenment from God's word. But I see a couple of things you are saying have been the cause of leading some astray in the past.

Jo 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

God is spirit. The origin of all things was spirit, the audible word that God spoke in the beginning. And every word that God spoke was in agreement with the heart of God, and every word that God spoke was God in action, Spirit in action.

-All things were made by the word of God, whether originally spoken by God to men, or repeated by men according to what had been spoken to them by God, and nothing was made without the word of God (him).

-These are"deceptive statements"with just enough"TRUTH" contained in them & still be"deceptive"

-This is"NEW-AGE"& canNOT be accepted as TRUTH.....Sorry, but that's just the way it is folks.....

-No unholy spirit can enter into the kingdom of heaven. The lost speak with an unholy spirit. The born again speak with a holy spirit. It is the responsibility of every Christian

to know the spirit that is sent out on his words.

-These type of statements come directly out of{NEW-AGE}doctrine--phylosophy--When you hear or

-see these type of statements---RUN FER THE NEAREST EXIT---Very Quickly--

Great post, God-man~

-I'm sorry ta have to say it but like I posted above{this is new-age-phylosophy--doctrine}--

- IT sounds{good--logical--pleasing to the ear--& some even call it "spiritually deep"in the beginning

-But after a few more"lessons--teachings--doctrines"are presented you can"see",if ya look close

-enough"& are "grounded"in GOD'S WORD, then you can separate the"true"from the false.

-These"deceptions"HOOK folks that are looking for & honestly desiring a"closer-walk"with the LORD.

-They are very subtil{the teachings}just enough truth to make you accept the"small--little LIE"that

-is almost imperceptable to the honest-seeker of truth & always leads down hill from that

- "one little-subtil lie"---i.e."what part of a "little-lie is NOT a lie??"the "little lie"corrupts the "whole".

-A "little leaven leavens the whole lump"...1st.cor.5.vs.6--matt.16.vs.6--luke.12.vs.1---gal.5.vs.9---

[Guest Calamity]

Don't some of the "W" word teachers, teach something like that, about our words having power like God's? Seems like I recall reading something about that before, but it's been a while.

[Guest dove2]

They do indeed Calamity. However when you look this has a little extra added twist that I have not heard in that group before. Only in New Age have I heard part of this.
