do you do a sin you know full well is a sin?
do you recite the same excuse each time right before you do it?
do you understand sin doesn’t ever stop being sin? No, JESUS didn’t give you a magic covering to hide your new sin.
you don’t Believe if you are able to turn to deliberate separation from GOD and then blame GOD as an excuse.
it’s caring more about this Test we are in than The Living Relationship.
[Romans 6:1-2 KJV] What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
[2] God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
This is Water Baptism Repentance, not Fire Baptism …which is Crucifixion of your pride:
Water Baptism is not Rebirth. There is a Second Part that has to Happen.
[Romans 6:3 KJV] Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
They couldn’t be Fire Baptized yet: They had to continue to die daily to beat down their pride.
[1 Corinthians 15:29 KJV] Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
[1 Corinthians 15:31 KJV] I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
They couldn’t be a New Creation that didn’t have access to pride …yet: They had to fight their flesh.
[Romans 6:4 KJV] Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
They were Planted in the Likeness of His Death (Repentance) …but they couldn’t be in The Likeness of His Resurrection until around 70 A.D. because His Return is our own Resurrection:
[Romans 6:5 KJV] For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
Luke 12:49-51 — I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished! Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
Their old man pride couldn’t be Crucified yet, their body of sin couldn’t be destroyed yet. His Death (Repentance) Is not the Same as being Crucified (Door Closed to future sins). They were still in a race.
[Romans 6:6 KJV] Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
They couldn’t be Born of The SPIRIT of GOD yet:
[John 3:5-7 KJV] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
[6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
[7] Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
If your pride is Permanently on a Cross, you are free from sin …because you won’t be doing prideful things anymore:
[Romans 6:7 KJV] For he that is dead is freed from sin.
LIFE is not choosing pride (sin) anymore:
[Romans 6:8 KJV] Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
They couldn’t have Eternal LIFE until He Returned: (never choosing death again)
[Romans 6:9 KJV] Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
He didn’t Die for your personal sins …He Died for sins in general …He Died for the world’s separation from His FATHER. …the world’s pride. He Died so that when He Returned we could have Victory over pride by being on our own Cross.
[Romans 6:10 KJV] For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
This Is The Goal:
[Romans 6:11 KJV] Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
They had to die daily because they didn’t have redeemed bodies yet:
[Romans 6:12 KJV] Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
see, they couldn’t be Alive from the dead yet:
[Romans 6:13 KJV] Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
it was a major struggle, if you are Born Again today …you don’t deal with what they had to do:
[Romans 6:14 KJV] For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
pride was at The Door:
[Genesis 4:7 KJV] If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
protestants really missed the boat on This Next Verse: JESUS was here to stop sin …not to let you continue in it:
[Romans 6:15 KJV] What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
[Galatians 2:17-18 KJV] But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
[18] For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
Do you have His Yoke?
[Romans 6:16 KJV] Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Galatians 3:26-27 KJV — For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
we all were servants of sin until we saw a Great LIGHT on our darkness …pride:
[Romans 6:17] But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
[Revelation 12:4 KJV] And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
They were Free from sin without being on a Cross …because He didn’t Return yet. catholics made a whole religion out of this …pretending they don’t have to be on a Cross today:
[Romans 6:18 KJV] Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
Their flesh was awful, he was telling them to fight it:
[Romans 6:19 KJV] I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
[Romans 1:17-18 KJV] For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
[18] For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
protestants think they are free from Righteousness:
[Romans 6:20 KJV] For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
Stop thinking about your old selves before Dying in CHRIST: the continuance of pride is death to your Relationship with GOD:
[Romans 6:21 KJV] What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
They had Fruit of The SPIRIT …but they didn’t have Everlasting LIFE yet.
[Romans 6:22 KJV] But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
[Romans 8:23 KJV] And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
the payment of sin is death to your Relationship with GOD:
[Romans 6:23 KJV] For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
The Resurrection of the dead is those only Baptized in Water.
One Baptism of Immersion. We are Told all along there are Two Baptisms …One of Water and One of Fire. Just like there are Two Resurrections in One. The Resurrection of the dead is those Baptized into His Death, but didn’t become Born of The SPIRIT of GOD at His Return …it’s people stuck on the death side of The Cross …the false church.
[Matthew 3:11 KJV] I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
JESUS Is The SPIRIT Of GOD. The HEAD. The Bride is The Body …Redeemed Bodies after He Returned.
Ephesians 4:4 KJV — There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Revelation 22:17 KJV — And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
1 Corinthians 12:13 KJV — For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
LORD CHRIST has Authored a Finished FAITH Via One Baptism of FIRE:
Ephesians 4:5 KJV — One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
The didn’t have Redeemed bodies yet:
1 Peter 3:21 KJV — The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
You get Crucified Through CHRIST’S Return of Making your own Cross Possible. You get Crucified of using satan’s free will pride so that you can Know GOD like Abraham Wanted (Foundation Built By GOD) …It Requires Fire Baptism which is having The Door Closed to possibly choosing death/pride in the future.
Galatians 3:13-14 KJV — Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
Galatians 3:29 KJV — And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
They could cry to The FATHER, but they couldn’t Remain on their own Cross yet. They couldn’t Return from The City of GOD yet.
Jews could be Sons of GOD without bondage …but that wasn’t The Finish for them. They were Heirs …but they didn’t have The Inheritance yet.
They had to wait:
“that we might receive”
Galatians 4:3-7 KJV — Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
