Dying And Living : Two Things Happening At The Same Time by HISSCRIBE1995: 5:34pm On Sep 12, 2023
dying and living : two things happening at the same time

when we die in the flesh we automatically live in the spirit ,.
i have struggled for long to live in the spirit but the the way to live the spirit`s life is not trying to live
but actually dying in the flesh .
the bible says
" if you live after the flesh you will die, but if by the [power of the ] spirit you put to death the deeds of the body ,you will live .

so cruxifiction for a christian is not a means to take away sin but a means to live the life of [righteousness] christ .
so when the bible says to crusify the flesh is is actually trying to say we should live .
we cant live in the spirit without first dying in the flesh .
,there is no way we can ever live the life of christ without first dying in the flesh.
and as we die in the flesh we automatically live in the spirit.

death is always required for us to live either in the spirit or in the flesh .
to live in the spirit;, death in the flesh is required,
and to live in the flesh death in the spirit is required.
we cant live two lives at the same time .
sin is a power that deadens and corrupt our spirit .

if you by the spirit put to death the deeds of the body you will live .
so the spirit is the power to enforce the crusified life over the flesh .
it is written " the spirit fight [ to enforce the crusified life over ] the flesh ,and the flesh fights the spirit .

so the power to enforce the crusified life of christ over the flesh is the spirit ,

the opposite of flesh is not power but spirit
and the opposite of weakness his not spirit but power

we overcome the flesh by the spirit
and we overcome our weakneses by power given by the spirit after flesh has been delivered to death.

sin is so powewful that no man on earth has the power to overcome it by his or her self.
their is nothing you can do about your sins ,because it is spiritual; you are carnal ;it is ancient ,you are of few years,it is of the devil ,you are of adam .
only by faith can any man on earth defeat his sins .
by faith in jesus christ

sin is such a mystery that even the most holiest preacher on earth can fall into it if he stop holding unto christ by faith.

sin does not respect god ,
does not fear god,
it hates god,curses god,disregard,and dishonours god.

sin is an enslaver of souls ,corrupter of righteousness ,
destroyer of life ,lover of iniquity.
it is the system of a carnal man

as a christain

the more you practice sin the more sin gains power over your soul .
the more you refuse and disobey sin the more it loses its power over you

easy and broad is the path that leads to destruction ,but hard and difficult is the path that leads into life

people thought jesus was out of his mind when he said " unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you have no part in me ."

and truthfully that sounds like a sentence of one who is out of his mind .
but what he meant was not what they were thinking .

he was talking about the lords supper in a figurative sense but they took his word has a literal expression .
thats why even muslims cant phantom how the omnipotent god could die for the sins of mankind.
there is surely foolishness in the preaching of the gospel for every carnal ear .

our inheritance in christ are not in ourselves but in christ ,and this christ is in the realm of the spirit so if you are
not spiritual you cant lay of any thing god has given you .
a carnal man cant walk with the spirit of god
