Poem
Life Through the Spirit continued The mind of a sinful man is death, but a life yielded to the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. [Hereby, the sinful mind also, does not want to submit to God's law.] Those controlled by a sinful nature cannot please God. Romans 8:6-8 [ Neither, do they want to ever please God, but their sins] You, however, are not controlled by the sinful nature, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your [mortal] body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteous ness. And if the [Holy] Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who lives in you. Romans 8:9-11 [It was It was the same Holy Spirit of God that raised Christ from the dead that will also likewise raise all those who have renewed minds from the dead.] Therefore brothers, we have an obligation--but it is not to the sinful nature, to live according to it. For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit, you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, because those who are lead by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive a Spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba, Father." The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, than we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we might also share in his glory. Romans 8: 12-17. This testimony is true. Therefore, rebuke them sharply, so that will be sound in the faith and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the commands of those who reject the truth. To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted. They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good. Titus 1:13-16. These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men. Matt 15:8 Roxanne Lea Dubarry Feb 14-15, 2024
