Lovers of Selves

Everything is beautiful in its own way, 
Like a starry summer night, 
On a snow covered winter’s day, 

These are the words of a very popular music album that came out in the 1970’s and back then we could believe those kind of thoughts in America, but times have changed. In my generation we all grew up in the Ozone, wearing our rose colored glasses, believing the best of everyone, but that is not reality now. Back then it was more normal to have good manners, respect and common sense, but now common sense is uncommon. Here we are now in our current generation and a lot of people don’t know right from wrong. You can barely tell the difference between good and evil because the hearts of men are full of evil. (Ecclesiastes 9:3, 1 Timothy 6:10) Perilous times are here and it’s clear that we live in a different world. You don’t know who you are talking to these days. The generation I grew up in was called the age of Aquarius. Now we live in the age of “the lovers of selves.” Not only is time passing but the evil is growing and penetrating into every aspect of our lives. It seems like evil not only abounds but is getting out of control. Relatives and friends are somewhat safe, but with everyone that we don’t know we have to be cautious. Looks can be deceiving. A simple smile can hide an evil heart. With some people, you can tell what is on the inside by what you can see on the outside, but with many people today, the way they look on the outside is not the way they truly are on the inside. White is really black.

Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight. Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink, Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him! (Isaiah 5:20-23) So teach us to number our days, That we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. (Psalm 90:12) 

You may be rich and famous, or just a good ole boy, but the bottom line is when the clock strikes midnight and we jump into the ocean of eternity, what will happen to us? God says you will be wise and prudent to apply your heart to coming up with an answer for that which will help you for eternity. It will also become your wisdom for the rest of you natural life. While we are just trying to have fun in our lives, we are neglecting our eternal destinies. This is not wise. The world isn’t designed for humans to have fun. The earth is nothing but a dead planet with good and evil humans who want to live life without God because it is their spiritual nature to live by Satan’s good and evil self-program of SIN. We will heed warnings most of the time in our natural world, but when God warns us about living by the Self-program to satisfy the lusts of the flesh He is trying to save us from the ways of death. (Proverbs 14:12) God tells us that sin if fun for a season, but when the season is up, then we die. Then comes the judgment and that is eternal. (Hebrews 11:25) The Self-program is really good and evil and it is being programmed into our kids to run with the world, to be part of the crowd, to live by the ways of death. That is exactly what the Bible says. Now the public schools are full of teachers who aren’t even teachers, but rather they are political plants designed to train the kids towards political parties and sexual ideologies before they can even learn to read and write, add and subtract. At the very least the kids are being programmed from a young age to be pernicious and grow into the full grown lusts lusts of the flesh. At a young age the kids don’t know what is normal because they are being taught that good is bad and bad is good depending on what group they are in. We don’t know what people are capable of and even if they seem to be good people. We can’t be sure because the lies abound in our world to such a degree that we don’t know who to believe anymore. It’s like a virus. You just don’t know if it’s there or not. The spiritual SIN virus perpetuates the good and evil nature passed down to us through the bloodlines of our fathers with appetites of the human heart that leads the human to walk in the ways of death. (Proverbs 14:12) It is the lifestyle of living by Satan’s Self-program of SIN, which is Satan In Nature. We are all born as the progeny of Adam to live our lives separate from God without any rules to be our own gods, do our own will, go our own way and live for SELF. In the kids you just don’t know what level it has evolved into yet. That is what laws are for. Even today law breakers don’t get punished, and rather than getting locked up to protect the community, they get released to do even worse deeds. This level of society generates the Perilous Times the Bible talks about that is really a world out of control. Even nations are doing things that endanger other nations because they are headed by dangerous leaders and political parties. (Matthew 24:7) The Bible confirms this fact to be a sign of the last days. Only the Bible explains how this world is under the control of the rulers of the darkness of this world and why. (Ephesians 6:12) But thanks be to God, Jesus Christ has accomplished the victory over them. (1 John 3:8) Through His death and resurrection He has taken back the dominion that Adam gave to Satan and their time is almost up. Only those with the inward witness of the Holy Spirit really know what is Truth. (John 16:13) 

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with various lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (2 Timothy 3:1-7)

God has warned us in the Bible. After reading this passage of scripture from the Bible, do you still have your rose colored glasses on? Or have you awakened to the nature of evil that is in our world because of the evil self-program that lies within our hearts? It’s easy to see that the love of money is the root of all evil. Perilous times are here. I’m surprised we don’t have metal detectors in every public facility now. We can’t enter into Heaven with the good and evil spiritual nature of man. Heaven is God’s home and disobedient rebels are not allowed in. We can barely live peaceably on earth now. The humans that live on planet earth can barely get along and the lies that we believe as the lifestyle of living without God to be our own gods, generate things that are evil. This scripture says that perilous times shall come and then it describes human nature perfectly. I have some bad news for you. Dangerous times are here! Can you see how swiftly the nature of humanity is changing? In our day billions of dollars are being spent financing a slew of evils to sell products, to accomplish political agendas, to push racial ideologies, to satisfy the lusts of men, to build a so-called new world order, and we are trained by the world at an early age to believe that what is evil is good and what is good is evil. Are you wondering about the similarities between good and evil in today’s world. If so there is still hope for you to be saved.

For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. (Mathew 24:5-8)

Now instead of “Everything is beautiful in its own way,” it’s really, “raindrops keep falling on my head.” Are you seeing the signs? It feels like our planet earth is about ready to explode by the weather if it isn’t blown up by a few evil men. What I hear on the news tells me that the exact opposite it really true. In our present world we are being trained to believe that lies are true and truth is a lie, that up is down and down is up, that good is bad and bad is good. Countries are threatening and rising up against other countries and the lies abound just as the Bible said it would because men are lovers of selves. The attitude of the world is like one popular song says, “I Don’t Care!” The Bible warned us about the nature of man and the end of time. When you say, “I Love You;” do you really mean it? Do you LOVE the person, or do you just LUST after what the other person provides for you because you love your own self like the Bible says? As the song goes; “Love the one you’re with.” Another song sings, “All you need is love-love! Love is all you need!” REALLY? I’m sure you can agree with me that when you listen to the news on TV, you don’t see much love and you don’t hardly hear any good news, right? What you usually hear is LIES, MANIPULATIONS and BAD NEWS! Yet God promises to give you some good news if you will listen to Him, In this world, nothing is real, but God is real and through the Bible He gives us good news!

To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. (Acts 26:18) For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. (2 Corinthians 4:6) 

Can you see how the world we are born into is really the kingdom of spiritual darkness like the Bible says, and how the knowledge of truth is spiritual light? (Colossians 1:13, Proverbs 4:19) I’m sure you’ve noticed by now in our current age that there is a problem with the human race and planet earth and it is getting worse and worse. People want to blame it on racism, politics and the weather, etc. but the real problem lies deep within the heart of man. (1 John 5:19) The last thing people want to acknowledge is that their problems lie within their own hearts. That’s the ugly truth that God tells us all through the Bible and history is proving God right. The whole history of man is UGLY. The natural man can’t see reality because he loves himself so much he can’t believe there is anything wrong within, but something is very wrong with the human race. Another song goes, “Just put on a happy face.” These days smiles have lost their power. A smile on our face can hide the ugliness of our hearts for awhile, but the truth is we have this good and evil nature of SELF in our heart that makes us unfit for Heaven and almost unfit for planet earth. Love is the atmosphere of Heaven but on planet earth we live by this good and evil nature of the self-program that we are born with, which can produce a world of evil. Jesus agrees. Here is what He had to say about the corruption of the natural man.

And He saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him; Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats? And He said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man. (Mark 7:18-23)

The whole focus of the Bible is about the good and evil spiritual nature that has been passed down to all human beings from Adam and our unfitness for Heaven and what God has done to redeem us from Satan’s powers of death through Jesus Christ to provide a new spiritual nature that makes us fit for Heaven. We can’t go to Heaven in our current spiritual condition because our nature is wrong, but the Bible shows us the solution that only God can provide. The Bible teaches that we must go through a change of spiritual nature. It’s called the new birth. It is the rebirth of the human spirit of God’s Spirit. The Bible says that we are born into this world in spiritual darkness and we cannot see spiritual things because we are spiritually dead (separated from God. That is why we are going to physically die and while we live, we are blind unto the things of God in the spirit realm. That is our BIG PROBLEM. The Bible teaches that we are spiritually blind because we are spiritually dead and only God can make us spiritually alive so we can see truth and truly LIVE. I am being repetitive here because all the lies of the devil are repetitive. The Bible talks about two men, the natural man and the spiritual man. Adam was the natural man and Jesus IS the spiritual man. We are all born of the natural man passed down to us from Adam and we must be born again of the spiritual man by receiving Christ into our hearts. Jesus was the perfect man. Jesus never sinned. In Him we see the perfect love of God. He came from Heaven to earth through virgin birth, lived a perfect life and then died upon the cross as your substitute to take your punishment and provide God’s redemption for you. God has pardoned you and He wants you to come to live with Him in Heaven forever. Jesus has historically conquered death for us and He gives us His divine nature as we believe in Him. That is God’s eternal gift to you. When someone offers a gift to you, if you receive the gift, then you receive the giver into your heart also. If you reject the gift then you are rejecting the giver also. In the natural man we are doomed to think that everything is beautiful in its own way, but God wants to open the eyes of our hearts to see the spiritual realities of truth by His Spirit. God has provided Redemption for you through Christ. You have been pardoned, but if you fail to receive your pardon, do you think you will be pardoned of all the evils you’ve ever committed? No, when a prisoner gets pardoned, he still has to receive his pardon or he won’t be pardoned. 

Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. (2 Corinthians 4:1-4)

The truth is we are spiritually dead and separated from God at birth because of the disobedience of the first man Adam. He chose to rebel against God and in his separation from God he died spiritually and his spiritually dead nature and state of separation from God has been passed down to all humanity as his offspring. As the progeny of Adam, we are all born spiritually dead and because we are spiritually dead, we physically die. If we are dead spiritually when we die physically, we will remain spiritually dead and separated from God forever. This was never a part of God’s original plan. Death is an enemy of God and man. God sent Jesus to open our eyes to the Truth. Before Jesus conquered the powers of death for us, He said “I Am the Truth. Everyone that is of the truth hears my voice.” (John 18:37) When God opens the eyes of your heart and shines the light of Truth into your soul and you see Truth, you will be shocked, but you will also have a divine witness in your heart that what God is showing you is indeed Truth and you will want to prepare for eternity. Satan has blinded our eyes unto the Truth but God knows how to open our eyes so we can turn from darkness to His marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9) God historically wrote the Bible over several thousands of years through holy men of God (2 Peter 1:21) to reveal all the Truth unto us, because Satan, the god of this world, has blinded our minds to the Truth. (2 Corinthians 4:4) The world is growing darker in every generation, but when we come to our senses and turn from darkness unto light so that we cry out unto God, He hears our cry and opens our eyes to see the Truth of eternity. (Acts 26:18) God destroys Satan’s power over us as the father of lies by revealing the Truth unto us. Jesus said, “Everyone that is of the Truth hears my voice.” (John 18:36-37) 

He said unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him! (Isaiah 5:20-23)

Like the waves of the sea, every generation bring in its own character, its own ways, its own expression of the “good and evil SELF-PROGRAM and ultimately its own historical destiny. There is no limit to the amount of evil that can be obtained and perpetrated in planet earth. It is easy to see why God commanded Adam not to eat of the spiritual Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, which bears the fruit of spiritual death, physical death and eternal death in the human being. Adam disobeyed God and ate of the cursed Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil instead of the Tree of Life and now, just like in the days of Noah, we all are bearing the fruit of the good and evil spiritual nature of SELF. As a child of Adam we are all born into planet earth with his good and evil spiritual nature. The whole world is at the point of destruction because of the selfish-ness of man. It is the nature of man to live for self without regards towards others. The love of money is the root of all evil because the money system finances all the evil in the world that the lovers of self enjoy. (1 Timothy 6:10) It is easy to see why God gave the first man Adam the choice between God’s Tree which bears the fruit of Eternal Life and Satan’s Tree which bears the temporary fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. These are the only two spiritual trees in the universe. Why would God do such a thing? It is because the spiritual nature of God is love and the spiritual nature of love begins with a choice. Love can never be forced. Because of Adam’s disobedience unto God, all humans are born into this world with Adam’s spiritually dead nature, separated from God. The fruit of living by Satan’s “good and evil” spiritual nature of being your own god, is death. This was never a part of God’s original plan. Such is the spiritual nature of man. He is lost and alone, without God in the world, and all the evils that Satan can unleash on our world is being poured out upon all humanity. Every generation brings with it a new level of evil that is considered normal and natural in this world, but is unfit for Heaven. 

Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. For every kind of beasts, and of birds, and of serpents, and of things in the sea, is tamed, and hath been tamed of mankind: But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter? (JAMES 3:5-11)

I grew up in a time when people thought it was important to have respect, good manners and common sense and much of that came by influence of the churches and teachings of the Bible. Many people could be trusted then. Many people kept their word and there were less people that broke contracts. Times were stable because good was normal. People were kinder, gentler, were more giving, hospitable and loving. My parents trained me to show respect, good manners and common sense. When someone greeted me, even at a young age I would say, “Yes sir and no ma’am, I don’t know sir and thank you ma’am.” In our current day it is common to hear, “What’s up?” In my generation there was a lot of self expression through many good and evil rock and roll bands. Drugs came in and altered the mental state of that generation. Rebellion and witchcraft became prevalent. The kids were being programmed by the media and TV shows. The sitcoms were full of just weird stuff designed to produce laughter and unruly behavior. People screamed a lot and others were just goofy. It became normal for men to act like women and for women to act like men and for kids to act like morons. The sitcoms and comedies affected everyone in what they regarded as normal. The killing on violent shows, murder mysteries and movies have taken root in the psyches of people in such a way that there is now no such thing as normalcy. Society now operates in an unreal fashion and the political scene is built mostly on lies. The commercials are pathetic. Things that are happening on TV commercials are NOT REAL Yellow birds and lizards selling car insurance is NOT REAL It is just weird stuff. Programs full of lust and murder has become normal. The death penalty is vey seldom enforced so there is no deterrent for evil. The video games are main teachers of violence to our kids in the current version of the self-program and they are one of the main causes of people from 10-35 years old committing murders. Young kids practice killing at home on the I-pads and computers and their little self-programs are trained to think that their dangerous behavior is normal in their generation. Little do we know that their training in evil is fully revealed by Satan, whom the Bible calls “the god of this world.” They take that behavior to the streets and in the schools and we wonder what is going on. Nothing is real. That is what’s going on.

But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. (Matthew 24:37-39)

The world got so wicked in the days of Noah that God destroyed it. God is not dead. God in Heaven sees everything that is going on in our world and in our hearts. It’s time that we realize how the world has not only become dangerous because the kids are being trained by all forms of electronic media. The kids are learning to shoot and kill for hours a day at home on the apps, videos, movies, internet icons, etc. They are even being taught how to cast spells and do evil things in the name of comedy or fun. In our current generation they are being trained in the art of disrespect. Radical ideologies and gender groups are forcing their wickedness upon the kids at such an early age that the kids think it is normal. Young kids believe what they are told and taught so it is important to have parents that care enough about the kids to protect them and teach them what is right and wrong. (Proverbs 22:6) It is easy to see why God warned Adam in the Garden of Eden to not eat of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. When Adam disobeyed God and obeyed the devil, he gave Satan the dominion over planet earth and the human race, all to have a temporary party with the human race. Now we are all born with the nature of evil because the spiritual nature of disobedience to God has been passed down through the bloodlines of our fathers from Adam until the current day. Disobedience unto God is now our spiritual nature, but the other side of that false coin is, in our disobedience unto God, we are obeying the devil. The Bible calls us the children of disobedience and children of the devil. (1 John 3:10, Colossians 3:6) That is why God sent us Jesus from Heaven, to take back the dominion from Satan and to provide a way of entrance for all of Adam’s progeny into Heaven through Christ. Now we are getting ready to loose robots that are armed with guns into society without emotions that are programmed to make instantaneous decisions in public without any supervisor and they are trained to kill. Are you concerned yet? We not only have young kids running around with guns but we have robots trained to kill, which are the words from an AI expert. What is normal now? The truth is that God has given every soul a conscience and deep down in the human spirit we know right from wrong. We know killing is wrong. We know stealing is wrong. The Ten Commandments teach us this not as a set of rules but as a guide to our behavior. God Himself has built these commandments into our spirits to serve as rules for our conscience, but the Bible says many people have seared their consciences with a hot iron. (1 Timothy 4:2) When we choose to follow the ways of the world like they did in the times of Noah, we are set to run on “the highway to Hell” one song says, towards destruction. The Bible well said,

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. (2 Timothy 3:1-7)

Where is our safety now? What is really safe now? If I go on a hike, evil is there. If I go on vacation, evil is there. When I go to work, evil is there. When we go to football games or to church or to the store, evil is there. When we truly look at our own selves, evil is there. Why are we in danger every day? It is because people have been trained and raised to not care as much about their effects upon others, but rather to be Lovers of Selves. It’s the way we were born and it’s the way we have been trained, which makes us incompatible with God and unfit for Heaven. But the good news of the Bible is that GOD has provided a solution to our sin and death problem so we can escape from our destiny of destruction. Read our blog called “Secret of Eternity” to learn God’s answer for the human problem or get our book called, “You Can Be a Son, Secret of Eternity.” You will realize that in spite of the nature of man and the evil of this world, God is still enlarging His Heavenly Family. God is adopting us as His very own sons into His heavenly family by supernaturally giving us a new spiritual nature. Through faith in Jesus Christ, God washes our souls of all the evil and makes us compatible with Him and fit for Heaven forever. That is the good news!

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and then He shall reward every man according to his works. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming, even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and in all deceitfulness of the unrighteousness in those who are perishing, because the love of the truth they did not receive for their being saved, And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. (2 Timothy 2:8-12)

We are all born into this world and raised to believe that we can be our own gods, go our own way, do our own will, and live for SELF. The word S.E.L.F stands for Satan’s Everlasting Love of Folly. We are trained to love the lifestyle of living life without God to be our own gods and promote Satan’s kingdom of darkness. Every lust is a lie that we are trained by this world to love. God says if we don’t love the truth, we are dead while we live and we are damned forever. (1 Timothy 5;6) This world will pass away but whosoever does the will of God will live forever. (1 John 2:7) Life is but a vapor that appears for a short time and then vanishes away. (James 4:14) There is coming a day when the whole world will believe one BIG lie and it will destroy them and then the end shall come. The Bible says that only believers in Christ will barely escape.

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not willing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9) Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. (Jeremiah 33:3)

Translation: God has provided an alternative the the old dead cold life of the flesh that flickers like a candle for a moment and then passes away. God doesn’t want one person to perish. God has provided a program by which He does supernatural surgery in your heart that makes you ready for Heaven. God wants you to come live in Heaven with Him forever. God has plans for you. From the day your were born God had great plans for you, but the world trains us from a little child to do our own thing. Our flesh craves to be loved and is programmed to lust for outward things rather than God to feel loved. But God is able to supernaturally touch your spirit by His Spirit and make all things to be like new in you. God wants to bless you and not to curse you. God wants you to live and not die. God wants to love and to bless you while you are on the earth. God wants you to come into His heavenly family. God wants to walk with you like He did with Adam and Eve did in the Garden of Eden before they separated from Him and jumped on Satan’s bandwagon to form a new world order of being their own gods. God wants your family to be blessed. Jesus came to pay the price to open the windows of Heaven for you so that you could walk in the blessings of Life with Him. If you can pray to God right now with your heart, God will hear you and answer you and you will experience the Truth. What is stopping you? God will answer you and show you great and mighty things you know not. Are you satisfied with dead knowledge that lasts only for a few years of natural life and then we are gone or would you want to experience adventures in faith learning the Truth of eternity? God said that He will bless you and show you great and mighty things you don’t know about that will satisfy you and prepare you for Heaven. Think about it. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain FOREVER. He is wise who gives up what he cannot keep (this world) to gain what he cannot lose forever (truth that saves your soul). (Mark :36-38) Truth is eternal. Your attitude towards Truth and towards God has eternal blessings or eternal consequences. Challenge yourself and determine for yourself! What is Truth for you? The truth is that in our flesh is a good and evil spiritual nature. I call it Satan’s good and evil SELF program. 

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. (John 3:6-7)

The only way the human can change his spiritual nature is to be born again by the supernatural power of God. Jesus said, “That which is born of the flesh is flesh” and always will be flesh no matter how well you dress it up. One day your flesh is going to wilt and die. You were born once and Jesus said you must be born again! This is nothing to marvel about. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit and when you believe in Christ, your spirit is going to live forever. His resurrection is proof of this fact. You were born of the natural man of the flesh and Jesus said that you must be born again of the Spirit as a spiritual man. You were born once as a human, but you must be born again of the divine nature. That isn’t too hard to understand. There are two births, the human person and the divine person, the natural man and the spiritual man. Flesh and blood cannot see or inherit the spiritual kingdom of God. You cannot walk with God and inherit His spiritual nature without being born again. Just like you cannot come into this world called planet earth without being born into it, even so you cannot go to Heaven without being born again of the Spirit of God. Jesus has provided redemption for us. As our substitute Jesus paid your death penalty upon the cross for all your sins and He has purchased God’s mercy for you. Jesus has redeemed you from the curse of Satan’s dominion just like He redeemed Israel from Pharaoh’s dominion. Eternal life is the gift of God through the shed blood of His Son Jesus Christ, which we receive in our hearts by faith.

But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness. (Ephesians 4:22-24) 

Do you see why we cannot go to Heaven the way we are? We need a new innocent bloody skin to cover our sin. When we believe the truth, God sprinkles our hearts with the shed blood of Jesus and God sees death has already happened in us so the death angel passes over us. God has provided us with Jesus’ robe of righteousness that covers us in His sight when we believe in Him. Jesus has redeemed us from Satan’s dominion and from Satan’s curse of sin and death. By the shedding of His innocent blood upon the cross, He has redeemed us from the curse of SIN and death. He becomes our spiritual robe of righteousness when we believe in Him and are born again of His Spirit. (Isaiah 61:10) Do you understand? Nothing changes unless we go through the change. Through faith in Christ our old natural man passes away and we become a new man creature in righteousness and true holiness. (2 Corinthians 5:17) God sees us as righteous as Jesus in His sight when we believe in Him. All you have to do is PRAY to Jesus and ask Him to come into your heart and will will quicken you by His Spirit and you will become a new creature in Christ with an eternal inheritance. (Hebrews 9:15, 1 Peter 1:4-5) The old man of the flesh is corrupt with all its lusts, affections and deceptions, but the new man in Christ is going to live forever. That’s it! Give up the old man for the new man and you will receive His divine nature and live forever. Wouldn’t you rather be a new creature in Christ that loves God than a mere “lover of self?” Living forever in Heaven is a much greater reward than living for self to go your own way, be your own god, do your own will and live only for SELF. That is the religion of Satan who is the god of this world. (2 Corinthians 4:4)

The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly. (Proverbs 20:27)

When you pray and utter the name of Jesus, He is in your presence to quicken your spirit by His Spirit so you can be born again of Him. Truly God is enlarging His heavenly family and that is why God created you. He is everything we hope for and He is all we desire and when you put your trust in him, God will set your heart on fire with Jesus. However, God will respect your right to choose your own way because He created us all in His image with the freedom of choice. Just like the angels, we all choose our own eternal destiny. I hope to see you in Heaven. The first man Adam chose to be a lover of self and his spiritual nature of the flesh was passed down to all men. Will you remain a lover of self like Adam or will you become a lover of truth like Jesus and enter into eternal glory? God loves you and has provided you with an open door into Heaven through Jesus, but He leaves the choice up to you.
