FLESH!

FLESH!

The word (flesh) is used in scripture 420 times in 50 of the 66 books of scripture. The most used of the word flesh is found 49 times in Leviticus.

QUESTION: Since God said this: Gen 1:26,27 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Does this mean that God has "flesh?" ABSOLUTELY NOT, not unless He chooses to take on flesh for His ULTIMATE will to be accomplished, which He did in Jesus Christ. The scripture is clear that GOD is SPIRIT, and Jesus said to his disciples after His resurrection that "Luk 24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. GOD can be both Spirit and Flesh, in this case Jesus i.e. (God the Son) was in glorified FLESH.

QUESTION: What does it mean for a human being in the flesh to be made in the "Image of God?" Since GOD is SPIRIT Joh 4:24 God a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and in truth. The only comparison then of being in the image of God is to be found in the Spirit of man, NOT in one's actual flesh. Yes God the Son had two arms, two legs, a mouth all the attributes of fleshly man when He appeared to His disciples, but there was a reason He did so. Sinful Man cannot look upon God and live. Jesus appeared to His disciples therefore in the glorified flesh after the resurrection. Had He appeared in any other form to them He would have instantly destroyed them. In speaking to Moses the pre-incarnate Savior of the World told Moses. Exo 33:20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

The only attributes pre-fallen and fallen mankind have that is in the "Image of God" in the "likeness of God" is to be found in the spirit of man, NOT in his/her physical flesh. Therefore when scripture states in Genesis 1:26,27 that man was made in the image and likeness of God means that mankind was created with a "spirit", the ability to discern right from wrong, good from evil. Eve didn't need to consume some forbidden fruit in (order to know) "good from evil" as Satan suggested. She and Adam were more than capable of identifying the difference between right and wrong, good and evil. Both their minds and hearts were completely perfect in all their cognitive capabilities. So why did Eve buy into the statement of the serpent i.e. Satan?

The answer is that the supernatural i.e. the fallen angel even though fallen and banished as Lucifer the "Son of the Morning", the flesh that was Eve was easily overpowered as we all are by the influence of the fallen angel if you don't always keep foremost in your mind and spirit the daily possibility of an attack by demonic forces every minute of the day. This consciousness of man has been so under attack by Satan through modern technology i.e. computers, smartphones, FitBits, smartwatches, and especially movies and television, that most people aren't even aware they are being approached by demonic influences. If you're NOT more tuned in to your Spirit than you are your flesh, then your flesh will rule over your spirit.

This has what's taken place today in the governments of the earth, this is especially true today of America. The 2014 illegal law of "same-sex" marriage did more harm to homosexuals spirituality than anything else. It allowed them to exhibit in their flesh their desires of the flesh thus suppressing their spirits to be the actual ruler over their lifestyles. It cemented in their minds that they were now receiving equal rights in the flesh and that was exactly Satan's design. They had now adopted mentally the same mindset of those individuals in Sodom and Gomorrah that told righteous Lot: "Gen 19:5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them. In the flesh of the LGTBQ+ movement in America and not just them alone both members of Congress in both houses have adopted the same mindset regarding right from wrong.

Jesus said that this condition would exist just before He returns. The flesh now dominates the spirit of humanity through political correctness to the destruction of that same flesh when Jesus appears the second time. Mankind is completely out of touch with their spirits, and that ALSO is by Satan's design. Just as he moved Eve and Adam to be out of touch with their spirits and allowed him to mentally overpower them, so too today has he caused this nation and the entire world to consider their flesh rather than their spirit. This is why all the shootings are taking place, all the children are being deprived of education, all the members of Congress who advocate open uncontrolled, unchecked sin to take place in both the spoken word and in the society. This is why I can say unequivocally that America is a "done deal", she will never recover from her apostasy socially, religiously, economically, or spiritually. She is beyond hope of redemption as a nation and a society.

There will be no true spiritual revival in America, no Nineveh experience for this nation. Why? Because there is not one modern preacher with the moxie to take a stand against blatant open sin and spiritual deprivation. The flesh has taken over the modern man/woman which is why abortion exists as well. A woman who believes she is in control of her own body cannot be a servant of God, therefore as long as she believes such a lie she can be nothing other than a tool of Satan himself. Deep in their psyche even woman who has ever had an abortion knows they are guilty of murder, they just won't admit it and can never admit it. Satan has them locked into his embrace and for them who won't admit it there's no escape. Millions of women will find themselves in the Lake of Fire while they wear the cloak of Christianity. Their "flesh" is more important to them than their spiritual condition before God, the same was true of Eve and Adam.

Obesity exists because the spirit cannot control the flesh, it has nothing to do with hormones or genes. It has everything to do with the lust of the eyes and the lack of self-control. The flesh rules humanity today in every form of social, religious, governmental, economic existence. There's not a single area of humanity the world over where the flesh does NOT control the spirit. The spirit of man in this world society is all but non-existent in the world today. This is why Jesus said: Luk 18:8(b) Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? We see today a major spiritual event taking place the world over. FIRST God is withdrawing His spirit from humanity. Secondly, humanity is functioning according to this bereft spiritual condition in every area of human society. There's no pursued righteous truth any longer, no real preaching from the pulpits, no real personal dedication to God, no real respect for God or fellow man, no concern about good or evil, no nothing that is right before God.

When Jesus left this Earth He stated: Joh 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. This same Comforter is called the Spirit of Truth here: Joh 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me. Common sense then should tell you that what has taken place in the American halls of government "a stolen election", "the spirit of the people" that doesn't come even close to that of Jesus Christ, the condition of American government filled with deceit, lies, witch hunts against the leadership of the nation, the lies and hypocrisy of those who think themselves, leaders of men, that this same "Spirit of truth" i.e. the Holy Spirit, the Comforter is leaving this world and Jesus is about to return the very instant His withdrawal is made complete.

This Spirit of Truth will tarry upon Earth specifically for one single reason alone. That's not to move upon the world as He has done in the past to reveal the Savior of the World. Oh, no He will remain for a single reason through the time of the Mark of the Beast and that in a limited role. The still small voice of the Spirit of Truth will be so "still and small" during the time of the Mark of the Beast, that unless you're tuned in with your spirit towards God, you won't even hear it at the time but faintly. If you hear Him and respond by withstanding the Mark, you must be willing to die. No man/woman can do this as long as their "flesh" is considered their own. After a decreed point in time already established by God, it might be a yearly quarter, six months, of three quarters of a year or even a full year or more. Once the decision time has run its course then comes the decree of God pronounced NOT on this Earth but spoken in heaven the final event that seals every human being's eternal destiny BEFORE you ever see Jesus coming in the clouds of heaven, that is if God allows you to live until He returns.

Unless you're right with God before you see Him return, you cannot be saved when you see Him. Before Jesus arrives back on earth He makes an ominous declaration in the courts of heaven. Rev 22:11-13 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Once this is spoken before He ever leaves to return, your eternal destiny is forever fixed for all eternity. You cannot wait to see Jesus return and hope that when you see Him that He will have mercy on you and grant you salvation, it far too late at that instance.

You, your flesh must die now and your obedience to God must follow that self-chosen self-denial of the flesh or your church membership, your worship of God, your claim to be Christian is of no import, and no good to YOU! You will never be with God in Paradise any other way. Many will say "what about the thief on the cross" who Jesus told would be with Him in Paradise that same day? Friend, Jesus Himself didn't go to Paradise the day He died on the Cross, He was taken off the cross and placed in Joseph's tomb and lay there until the first day of the following week. Many misunderstand what Jesus was telling the man on the other cross. Jesus simply assured him because of his acknowledgment of Jesus as being the Savior of the World, and Jesus then read his spirit as being one of sincerity in his confession and repentance, that because of his acceptance of Jesus that same hour, that his acceptance would give him a place in paradise with God. Jesus in no way indicated that that same day the thief on the cross would go to paradise that day, only that he would be given a place there when the Lord returns.

EXAMPLE: It would be like me telling you when you receive the link to this essay today, you will have the opportunity to click on it and read the essay today, or you can ignore the link this day and read it when you choose. Jesus was saying to the thief I'm telling you today, that because of your faith in me, that when I come to collect my elect, you will be among them. He was NOT telling the man that he was going to paradise that same day, as Jesus Himself didn't even go to paradise that same day.

Friends, time is quickly running out for humanity spiritually. Not even ministers, preachers, or bible teachers are spiritual today. They talk a lot about being spiritual, being saved, accepting Jesus, but very few of them themselves know the Lord of Glory, they only know about Him while projecting a fake persona as did the late Ravi Zacharias who has now been exposed as a sex addict molesting women who worked for him in his spas. A Fake Christian Apologist misleading millions while he (himself) catered to his flesh. I trust no modern-day preacher to know the word of God! I appeal to you that the best course to follow is one on your prayer bones before God Himself and leave the wolves in sheep's clothing alone. No man other than the MAN Jesus Christ can be entrusted with your spirit. The FLESH of millions of ministers will be their own downfall before God, and many of today's "lockdown" Covid-19 individuals indulging in online pornography, drinking themselves silly, arguing among themselves, being cruel to their children, neglecting their children, neglecting home bible study with their families, smoking dope claiming they have a medical condition that calls for the use of the same, popping pills to survive emotionally, sitting on Sunday in their homes tuning into their local church online services, thinking themselves spiritual believers are only fooling themselves if they think themselves Christian.

There's no time to play Christian! Either you are or you're NOT and that is what is going to call forth Revelation 22:11. 

You cannot hide from GOD!
