Now whenever so called teaches of God's word preach on behavior modification meaning;
stop doing one thing and substitute it with some other kind of behavioral change, there never comes any security with in the
believer of independent free choices to have a relationship with the Lord for the pure pleasure of sensing His all around
acceptance. God's word must be taught with a vision of God's declaration of our wholeness in His sight verses the
difference of them being sold into slavery and their soul being captured and bruised because; they have been mesmerized into
believing that; they are intentionally living in defiance of authority and accepted moral codes, or social conventions and
they need to repent. This mentality of preaching is a practice of following laws through obligation rather then wanting to
return love to a God who doesn't judge us from what our behavior looks like. When
God's true love is not being raised up in a body of believers; and we have finger pointing and messages on putting judgments
on God's kids; the people look at themselves with spots and wrinkles and incomplete and they feed a wow is me spirit;
I am unclean that makes them have the mentality of living in a wet dirty basement rather then in the palace with God their
Father. It reminds me of having body odor and covering it up with cologne. This type preaching is demonic in nature and it
keeps God's kids forever learning and never coming to the truth of their righteous position in Christ Jesus.
We must be experiencing God's total acceptance and constant pursuit of us in all the thickets
of life we get caught up in and we must have a living reality of God's love in our mind and heart. A true Sheppard who
loves his sheep if one get lost or caught in some thicket, it causes him to leave the flock and go get the one who is in trouble.
When Jesus gave up His life at the cross for our sin nature and by us accepting
His sacrifice; we were forever forgiven. When we come into agreement with this statement and see our self as God's sees
us; it causes us to experience His spirit of forgiveness that we are to live and breath in by His mercy and not by our continually
asking for forgiveness to the point that; we could be actually cursing our self by not coming into agreement with the new
creature we became the day we were born again. When we allow the Holy Ghost to actually sit on the throne of our heart where
the issues of life and death are meditated and acted on; we live and move with a spirit of forgiveness. Forgiveness comes
right along with our new righteous spirit and as we recognize this; it keeps our heart open to letting the Lord love us.
Paul in Philippians 2:12-13 says, "Therefore; my dear friends, as you have always obeyed-not
only in my presence. But much more in my absence-continue to work out your salvation in fear and trembling, for it is God
who works in you to will and to act according to His good purpose."
A child
of God works out His salvation in fear and trembling because; they know that they have no strength in them self to accomplish
Godly tasks and walk in obedience to the Holy Ghost's pleadings. By submitting to Christ's righteous Spirit; we allow
Him to not only give us the desire to do His bidding; but also the power to do it. This makes us constantly aware that we
are totally forgiven by Him at all times no matter what trial of life we are going through.
Forgiveness
is the personality of the Holy Ghost which God imputed to us the day we were impregnated by Him which made us righteous in
his sight. We are always forgiven because as I have said; we live and walk in forgiveness like breathing air since we are
in Christ. However; a child of God must have a true revelation of this understanding of forgiveness by the Holy Ghost which
only comes by experiencing God's love. That is why we need to understand that we are no longer sinners but saints in progress
in God's sight as his children.
If the born again pulpits would only preach
the good news gospel and encourage the righteous saint by showing them how to live and receive God's love; this fear entity
would never be able to take root in the born again believer. When fear increases in a believer's life and they concentrate
on getting sin out of their life; this fear entity brings with it; agitating passions and moral conflicts along with it. However;
when we lift up the love that God has for His children; it brings with it; righteousness, joy and peace in the Holy Ghost.
Paul said it very clearly in Romans 8:1-6 "There is no condemnation from God for those who are
in Christ Jesus. Because through Christ Jesus the love law of his Spirit has set me free from the law of sin and death. The
law was powerless to keep God's commandments because; it was weakened by our sinful nature. So God sent His Son in the
likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering and He condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of
the law might be fully met in us, who no longer live according to our sinful nature but according to the Spirit. Those who
live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires. The mind of sinful man is death however;
our mind being controlled by the Spirit is life and peace."
It is by us identifying
the difference between God's love verses the influences of the entity of fear; that will empower us to die from selfish
ambitions and enabling us to surrender to the will of God. God's love has a cleansing effect on our heart as we are meditating
on His word day and night. It flushes out of our thinking any double mindedness in doubting God's love for us. Unless
this living reality is taking place in our life; a person will never be grounded and believe that; nothing can separate them
from the love of the Lord.
It is the child of God experiencing the love of God
their Father that; causes them to walk in the reverential fear of the Lord because; this is the power one needs to stop looking
for love in all the wrong places. It is a travesty and this is a under statement that there are some of God's kids participating
in homosexuality, lesbianism, fornication, adultery and perversions of all kinds. Jesus died to set us free from these life
styles.
Now these habits are sick o life styles. However; what's really sad;
these people live with the shame and degradation of these acts that are committed by unsaved people even though they have
the jealous lover of their soul living on the in side of them. As I have said if the people in the pulpits would just lift
up the love of the Lord and encourage the new creation saint who was delivered from the sin cursed nature; God's kids
would begin to mature and grow strong in the Lord. Preaching a sin conscience gospel causes the born again believer to constantly
look under their white robe of righteousness and focus on their lack and imperfections.
I
recently was trying to minister to a young girl who is born again and gifted by God who was living out of wed lock and had
a new born baby who was so beautiful and innocent. She was unequally yoked with a non believer and just before the baby was
born; the guy she was living with beat her up because he was a drug addict. She left him and was going to court because he
wanted the baby. In talking to her she said to me. "I am living in fornication and I like it and want to party. I know
the word of God says; I am going to hell because of my life style." She was so indoctrinated with guilt because of the
born again church that she attended; who did not interpret the word of God correctly and in turn; the people teaching these
junk food interpretations of God's word were beating the sheep. Being a fornicator is not the reason people go to hell.
A person does not go to hell for his sins nor does he go to heaven for his good work. People only go to hell because they
have never made Jesus the savior of their life.
Now scripture does tell us that;
fornicators can not inherit the kingdom of God. A born again child of God already has his inheritance with in him with all
of God's characteristics which he can never lose. However; because the focus is on their behavior; they can not co-operate
with the Holy Ghost and learn how to enjoy and use the inheritance they already have. There is a profound difference between
these two interpretations. One teaching keeps the born again believer in bondage to sick condemnation thinking; where experiencing
God's love gives us the freedom with out condemnation to live in the perfect law of liberty that God intended for His
children.
A born again child of God; does not want to live in rebellion and lose
God's appointed destiny that He planned for them. They have no hope because; they have been taught a steady diet of law
and legalistic teachings that causes them to put judgments on them self and they never come to participate in God's love
in their life however; they go to heaven with no rewards as crippled children of God. Go back and read the definition of God's
love in 1 Cor 13 and tell me how a loving Father would send any of His children to hell after they became a member of the
family with all of God's characteristics in them.
John the Apostles states,
"Those that have an ear let them hear what the Spirit is saying to God's children." Are you hearing with your
spiritual ears and experiencing the love affections of the Holy Ghost or have you been mesmerized with the fear entity spirit
that wants you to doubt your total security in God‘s holding power of love. When this fear entity weaves its web of
deception; a person will have a difficult time rightly interpreting the word of God and fully understand God's jealous
love and His love He has for His children.
Now unless the body of Christ; are
growing in God's love; their light and example to the world of the love of God becomes a reproach and rather then them
being an example that should be drawing people to Christ; the true love that the world needs is hidden under a bushel because;
the Holy Ghost is not able to live His life to the fullest with in them. This fear entity makes a child of God think that
they are going to pay a penalty for sinning and God doesn't love them. There is a huge difference between a person having
faults in their life verses them still being a sinner. This fear entity condemns where the love of God chastises.
Faults are not sins but weaknesses in behavior of all children who are learning to walk instead of
crawling, learning how to eat with a knife and fork and all the things that a person deals with on his way to maturity. Scripture
tells us that; we have to know how to deal with our own oppressive faults. Loving parents do not deal with their children's
oppressive faults by condemning and putting them down and demanding strict obedience with sever punishments if; they are having
a problem in trying to make a choice to comply. They help the child with patient love, long suffering and mercy.
In Heb.12:6-8 it tells us. "For the Lord corrects and disciplines every one who he loves and
He punishes, even scourges, every son whom He accepts and welcomes to His heart that He greatly cares for. You must submit
and endure (correction) for discipline. God is dealing with you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not train
and correct.
Now if you are exempt from correction and left with out discipline
in which all of God's children share, then you are an illegitimate offspring and not a true son. Our earthly fathers discipline
us and we yield and respect them for training. Shall we not much more cheerfully submit to the Father of spirits and so truly
live. For the time being; no discipline brings joy but it seems grievous and painful, but afterwards it yields righteousness
to those who have been trained by it and a harvest of the fruit of righteousness which brings conformity to God's will
in purpose, thought and action."
God's loving discipline has nothing
to do with condemning His children because; of them not being strong enough do to a lack of warfare experiences in the heavenly
realm and not able to recognize the devils devices; which cause them to act like un-behaved spoiled children. I have been
told over many years from born again believers that the Holy Ghost convicts us when we have sin operating in our life. God
never puts His children on trial because He never convicts them of doing crimes. No where in scriptures does it say that we
come under conviction by the Holy Ghost. The word convict is only used in the scriptures one time and it was when Jesus was
rebuking the Pharisees when they were trying to stone Mary Magdalene because of her committing adultery, which in turn, is
the way man convicts and judges.
In John 8:4-9 it states. I will paraphrase. "The
Pharisees brought a woman they caught in adultery and told Jesus that; according to the Law of Moses a woman caught in adultery
should be stoned to death. They were trying to trap Him because Jesus believed in love and the Pharisees believed in judgment.
Jesus stooped down and wrote some thing in the sand as if; he never really heard what they said. He then said; you who are
with out sin can cast the first stone at her. Now when they heard Him; they became convicted by their own conscience and left
the premises."
Their judgment was based on their own value system of judging
this woman rather than bowing to Jesus way of judging which was in love not condemnation. The Holy Ghost never convicts God's
children of a crime for sinning. Man does that through being mesmerized by the spirit of fear and being fooled with a spirit
of guilt and doom. I have never been able to find one scripture that says; we come under conviction from the Holy Ghost when
we think and act as undisciplined children. Yet; this conviction theory thinking is being used as the standard for our righteous
position as sons and daughters of God for years and being preached in pulpits across America. Let's now discuss where
this spirit entity of fear comes from and what we must do to overcome it.
