Giving thanks unto the eternal inheritance Brought forth by the sacrifice of Christ The consuming fire to burn away weeds and thorns Separating the wheat from the chaff That one might be a dwelling place For the promised spirit to reign. Christ has the keys to set one free Submitting unto the Holy Spirit To place all enemies under the foot Which is old self or darkness trying to reign When one receives vision of the evil And deception of lies under the sun That one once was apart of But has found there is a new creation Being formed not taught of man. Old covenant turned into New covenant Old self being transformed into New living being This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel after that time,” declares the Lord. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people. No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest,” declares the Lord. “For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.” Jeremiah 31:33?-?34 NIV Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary. A tabernacle was set up. In its first room were the lampstand and the table with its consecrated bread; this was called the Holy Place. But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that are now already here, he went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made with human hands, that is to say, is not a part of this creation. How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God! Hebrews 9:1?-?2?, ?11?, ?14 NIV Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. 1 Corinthians 6:19?-?20 NIV

Stephen, your daily gospel we can surely rely on, and todays is just as special. Christs sacrifice [his love us] will not be forsaken, when we accept that our old self is transformed into a new being and is set free. The prints above the poems are unusual and make for great appendages. Keep on preaching dear one, we are your witnesses and God is listening.

"Christ has the keys to set one free Submitting unto the Holy Spirit'..... I do believe it and pray God gives all mankind the willingness to accept this eternal truth. Let us give thanks to God for the faith he has given to me and you!
