CHILDREN AND THE INNER WAR (With Much Detail For Recovery)
Children (The inner war that sends them into different directions in life).
{A spiritual outlook for success}
Why do children become so mixed up, hyper, over anxious, full of anger, destructive, over emotional, depressed or suicidal, etc., etc. …?
How can we help them and give them a better chance and head start in their proper natural growth? What you need to know to be effective in helping your child in their growth cycle.
When a child is born they do not know right from wrong, good from evil. They have no accumulated knowledge of life or memory in experiences of any kind except those felt while inside the mother, or what is sensed by them of the mother’s experiences and surroundings before the child was born. Their little brains are mostly empty and fresh but can absorb like a sponge.
Children are not born with the accumulated knowledge that comes from life’s experiences. Their emotions are not balanced yet in their thinking and knowledge to channel their feelings properly that will direct their emotional levels in healthy ways.
Children are not born scientist, doctors, bums, pedophiles, homosexual, wife beater, bigots, president, murder, child molester, etc, but acquire the knowledge and desire (Fleshy lust) of these things as they grow and many more through life’s experiences they have learned. They develop their emotions and desires to positive and or negative degrees that advance them to the emotional levels in life they reach. In these emotional potentials they have joy, love, sadness, happiness, hate, unforgivingness , hope, excitement and many more emotions etc. These all form the character of their soul that gives them their personalities. They however, have free wills to make emotional choices and are born with the potential and desires to develop these emotions through life’s experiences through the knowledge of good and evil they acquire. ( Genesis 2:17.)
Some children seem to find the right path and do well in life while others seem to be confused about their emotions and who they are. They can become mixed up or hell bent on self destruction and or very destructive to others. Because of their confused emotions and thinking some can take paths in life that are not natural or emotionally healthy and their thinking becomes mixed and confusing to them because they do not understand why and what they are going through.
For example: A child is born a male but thinks and acts like a female. Some times because of their lusts of disobedient sin within and the strength of the curse that destroys will power of the good nature , the drive and potential for lustful rampant desires within can be passed down from generation to generation according to the scriptures. I am not pointing a finger at one sin or blaming any particular sin, but pointing out the lust and desires of the flesh which increases when passed down to the third and fourth generation and even skipping some. As the drive for lustful carnal desires or the drive to be negatively sinful is ignored the greater the level and potential for failure in the sinful flesh becomes in each generation and or in certain individuals. (Babies character is being hardwired in their soul after birth.)
Note: I will explain God’s displeasure in the consequences of the results of sin by the generational curse and sin through disobedience, in respect to the generational transference of iniquity to the third and fourth generations. This will be done in more detail so we can see what a child is up against before and after birth. (There will be much here to consider)
I will also show God’s solution for the recovery of mankind through Jesus Christ. I hope you the reader will teach the importance of strong spiritual growth patterns for your children.
(Your spirit is the force that drives your hearts desires, so you must guard the righteous spiritual integrity of your children so they can be good and do good. In this God will bless them in life)
In EXO 34:7 we read… Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, that will by no means clear the guilty: visiting the iniquities of the fathers upon the children unto the third and forth generations. (There are those that take this to mean that the children will pay for the sins of the fathers, but what is really meant is that the sinful desire through rampant lust of the flesh, is transferred down to the third and fourth generations.) When we ignore or promote through our actions the sinful weakness of the flesh in our children, the children develop greater inadequacies and stronger potential to transgress and fail, through the dangers of the curse in sinful rebellion by excessive pride and or shame from within. See Gen 2:17, Gen 3:17-19 and Deu 28:15-47.
The sooner and the younger we teach our children, (always remembering the potential to fail and or succeed is hardwired in the carnal flesh and the curse is always active in the carnal nature) the development of proper skills such as true Godly love, patience, humbleness, self control, self esteem, obedience to authority, and submission the easier it will be for the child to develop into a mentally stable normal individual. By doing this the natural growing process will fight off the weakness caused by the sinful disobedient fleshes desire to rebel and or self destruct. {{{To understand why children rebel see the portions of this book on pride and shame and rebellion.}}}
This inner resisting and rebelliousness causes inner pressures that destroy the carnal mind and thinking process bringing on mental pressures that are not understood by the child or mankind in general. These pressures are the results of resisting Gods’ righteous Spirit that gives all mankind the breath that gives life. This causes the child to have trouble in life and struggle in many areas of their life. See Heb 12:9.
The best way to reach a young child is to teach them through fun and games mingled with lessons of patience and self discipline, by giving them love through patience in your teaching. The reasons for this is, young children are all about play and having fun so make it interesting for them by
keeping their attention this way. This is mostly what they understand when there young because you cannot put an adult head on a young child. You must come to them on their level in a childlike manner so they can understand you. Do not be foolish by thinking that a young child can reason as you and think that they are going to totally understand you with your adult mind, you will only confuse them even more. Older children in their teens are developing into adults and should not be treated
as a young child. Teens must be approached through their intellects and through their imaginations in positive ways by honoring them through your stimulating them as adults. [ Paul the apostle put it like this, 1CO 13:11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.]
Because man has forgotten God, God has allowed the righteous and lawful judgments of his laws through the curses to take its effect upon the children of disobedience without exception. (This is the strength of the curse and the separation of God and man that followed the curse. Every person will answer for their own choices in life.) The disobedience in those that know God and do not worship him as God are allowed through their own free choice to run rampant in disobedient lustful sin because of free will and choice of the carnal nature. The reasons for this failure in humans is found in the book of Romans chapter 1 verse 18-26, and reads as follows, For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed [it] unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, [even] his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator (Pastor, minister worship), who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature.
The potential of the lustful drive of the fathers is seen in the children three to four generations away. If the curse is not broken in one of these sinful generations then the sin will increase in intensity until it reaches its apex in uncontrollable sin. (Good examples are when the sex driven desires are
out of control , or stealing, or violence, or gambling, drugs etc.) Sometimes the urge and inner drive to sin or transgress can be quite overwhelming and uncontrollable in some individuals in that they seem to be totally lost in their senses of desires and the will to do right and or wrong.
I will give again these verses in Romans 1 17:21 and 24-32 with some detail to try to give a better understanding of the dilemma children face today and why they need proper guidance.
Romans 1 17:21, For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed [it] unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, [even] his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despite full, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
I am writing and adding these points of detail for you parents, for future parents and just for any one individual that wants to understand for the purpose of changing the heart. We all need to get a foothold to find our spiritual inner man and to find God who in the beginning has created us to be in his image. But mostly this article is to give the children some possible encouragement to succeed. The younger the child is the sooner the teaching should be to develop the inner spiritual drive and desires in healthy and positive ways. These teaching will make them stronger and better to do good and be good individuals in this life.
I will explain these verses in Romans Chapter one and referrer to them as part A, B, C, D, E. (Please bear with me because of the detail involved here and because I think the children are worth all the effort and pain it took to put this article together .
A. Things being understood by what is created.
B. The invisible things of God.
C. Holding the truth in unrighteousness.
D. God’s eternal power and Godhead.
E. All these things leave man without excuse.
Part A. Things being understood by what is created. We have changed the image and likeness of God.
In Genesis 2:20 we can see that God had already created man but then after some undetermined period of time formed woman from out of man to be a help meet for man. We can determine by God’s created natural order set in place that female was made secondly . She was made to be a helper suitable for man to accomplish God’s purpose of keeping God’s garden and dressing it. (Woman was made with man not for man and to help man for God’s purpose, not to be mans’ servant or for man‘s purpose.)
Since Adam was a garden dresser and keeper then it is logical to come to the conclusion that if Eve is Adams helper ,then Eve’s duty is to help Adam dress and keep the garden as God had ordered. This does not make Eve Adam’s servant but God’s servant in that she is to help Adam. Some men have taken these scriptures and assumed that Eve’s duty is to serve the man and their family. God made Adam and Eve joint custodians of the family unit with different duties, but their purpose is to serve the family as a whole. God never intended for the woman to be brought to such low levels that some men have degraded them to. The woman’s duty is a joint duty and only in this capacity can and will a family unit work as a whole. God declared that it was not good for man to be alone as stated in verse 18 of the same chapter. It was God that decided that man needed a suitable helper companion not a servant. When a man and or woman work together for the family then they have truly and really come to be one with each other as God has planned.
God created female for male and has not or will not ever change or alter that created law of creation. (God did not create male for male, female for female but male and female for each other to become one functional whole family unit. This is what Christ has done in the church by making her his bride to work and serve in him as one to unify the church as one. (EPH 4:3,4 Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. [There is] one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling.
Adam’s order in creation was not complete until Eve was added to the order to make the completion of one flesh as recorded in Genesis 2:24, Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall
cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Without male and female God’s order to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth would not be completed. What is clearly important to notice here is that God had already ordered the family unit in chapter one before the woman was taken from out of Adam. This was done by God’s foreknowledge just as God had chosen from the foundation of the earth that salvation should come to mankind through Christ because He (Christ) had his bride from the foundation of the earth.
In Genesis 2:24 we can see the bond that God placed naturally between a male and female according to God’s created order. In verse 24 it states that a man shall leave father and mother and cleave ( cleave meaning to stick, adhere to, be attached) unto his wife and they shall become one flesh or one unit. Other verses confirmed by Jesus and Paul, Matthew 19:5, Ephesians 5:31. If man and woman are one as the scriptures read then there must and should be some serious bonding and trust going on here, because the
only person that someone can trust is self. If they are both one in flesh then there should be a bond of trust and fellowship between a man and woman in this family unit.
In Genesis 5:2 (KJV) we read….male and female created He them.(I want to point out the word, them.) And blessed them and called their name Adam. (Also pointing out the phrase, their name) in the day when they were created.
What should be pointed out is ( them and their). Is God classifying them as a joint unit in the capacity and foundation of a family in the sense of being one, by saying them as one flesh and their name Adam? Anything beyond this God ordered unit is going against God’s natural laws of ordered divine creation. Gods’ reference was them and he calls them Adam. The (NIV translation) translates them as man and thus carries the same meaning of the bond between male and female. They for the sake of God’s order are called mankind and carry the understanding that it takes male and female together to be one flesh and make a family. We can also see by looking at other creatures of the earth that naturally follow this order set in motion by God the pattern that is meant to apply . You never see animals promoting this misguided error of iniquity that mankind displays and flaunts in parades and promotional activities. (Pride Day)
The only time a creature other then man goes against Gods’ natural order is when that creature has been affected by some doings of mans misdirected deeds or through demon activity.
I must add that this transfer of generational lustful desire is not limited to or exclusively affixed to gender in misdirected sexual iniquity and activities. It is the drive too sin through lust and or sin through disobedience of the carnal flesh plain and simple.
Example: ROM 1:28 -32 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate (reprobate meaning, to give them over to sin) mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. This is the drive that pushes the carnal nature in sin , and is associated to all sin and not one particular sin.
Again in the book of 1st Corinthians 6:9-11 we find God’s holy displeasure with man until the individual is renewed, regenerated and restored unto God and had their desires changed and sins washed away through Christ’s work by salvation. 1Cor 9-11, Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
Lets go back to the iniquity of the individual and away from the inherited carnal fleshy nature that is passed down through generations from the fathers.(Babies character is hardwired through experience)
Children that seem to go in wrong directions sexually and choose sex are not born a homosexual no more then a person that is born a drunkard, murderer, or any other mentioned iniquity that can separate man from God. However, they are born with the sinful drive naturally and the potential of disobedience of the flesh that misdirects them from God’s natural created order. This drive in the flesh they feel that pushes their canal desires in any one of the directions of iniquity is caused by the sin that is of the flesh
and hardwired through disobedience in all humans. The drive is the same for all sin, some to a greater degree and some to a lesser degree. It is the separation of God and man caused by the curse that brings the disobedience of the pride and or shame in the heart of man that causes man to rebel against God’s authority. This was the price that Adam paid when he ignored God’s authority and received the sentence of death. This sentence of death is also separation from God which is spiritual death, (ROM 8:6 For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace.)
The inner drive that a homosexual feels is the same drive that a drunkard feels ,or dope addict, the proud, backbiters , hateful, murderers, and smokers, etc. The sin may differ in each individual but the drive of the sinful fleshy carnal nature differs not except in the intensity of the drive to sin. Its like having a large apple in one hand and a small apple in the other hand, size is greater but apple differs not because apple is apple. The drive or inner fleshy push is because the flesh is hopelessly sinful and hell-bent on destruction . The flesh cannot be changed only held down, overpowered, suppressed or made to forcibly submit. Only by drugs or some other superficial means will it give in but will always return to its destructive path. The flesh of the carnal man is hopelessly doomed to repeat over and over the self same destructive path of sinful iniquities. The strength of the curse in the outer man that separates the inner-man of the spirit from the outer-man of the flesh will always be stronger in that the curse destroys the will of the fleshy mind to overcome failures. There is always a battle of separation between the inner-man and the outer man and the carnal flesh and mind (Brain)of mankind is always the loosing battle ground. Only through submission to the Spirit of God by the work of Christ within the inner-man can the fleshy flaws that destroy mankind be subdued to free the inner-man from the weight and bondage of the sin of the outer-man. To win this battle you need to give in and give up your will to God in the work of Christ by the Holy Spirit of God.
For scripture on the inner-man and outer-man see as follows.
Inner–man is of the Spirit of God Gen 2:7. Rom 7:22, Eph 3:16, 2Cor 4:16, Pro 20:27. {{{1. Inner Spirit Man of God, Christ and the Christ Mind. The inner man led by faith alone, Heb 11:6. Look at these two number of the book of Hebrews 11 and 6 and understand that these are the number symbols of the Lord Savior, in Isa 9:6, Matt 9:6, John 9:6, 1Pet 1:11, 2Pet 1:11, Rev 1:11.}}}
Outer-man is of the spirit of Satan, Gen 1:21 1Chr 21:1 and Rev 12:9 (12+9=21) Rom 2:28, Mat 23:28, 2Cor 4:16, 2Cor 10:7 {{{2. Inner fleshy brain and imagination of Earthy Man of the flesh, outer mans emotions moved by its imaginations Rom 1:21, 2Cor 10:5.}}}
[JER 31:33 We are born free spirits, with the right to choose the Lord God of Matt 6:33.] {{{ Outer man of the flesh is Satan’s work shop, Matt 9:33}}}
This is the cause of hidden war that our children are up against and for the most part many parents are not aware of these spiritual battle lines (Psa 19:1-4), do not care, or are in disbelief, stubborn or are in denial. [Wayward emotions and imaginations thinking drive the carnal brain of parents also as well as children.]
One should not feel that the their children are born with the knowledge of willful transgression, but each child has the hidden potential through choice, to transgress into sinful iniquities (This is the true meaning of the sins of the forefathers unto the 3rd and 4th generations.). The more the choice to transgress is made the easier it becomes after each transgression until the flesh is in bondage to that iniquity through transgression and therfore harder to undo the damage of the fleshes failures... This is simply because when a child is born, he or she have no knowledge of any of these misdirected faults, although the potential is hardwired in the flesh, in the weakness of the outer-man to transgress, and the weakness of failure, is present to fail into iniquity through the choice of the knowledge they acquire. This weakness in the fleshes nature, can be stronger than the willpower of an individual, to overcome the strength of repeated transgressions. What is inherited is rebellion of the flesh by choice, because of the pride and or shame of the fleshy mind and the drive of the carnal lust of the flesh. All transgression is a choice, given by the Lord in free choice, through the knowledge acquired by experiences of life.
Do not think that your child is born a murderer, or sexually misdirected or any such thing , but just know and realize that they have the potential to be anything good or evil by choice in the things they have learned. If a child’s fleshy nature is allowed to run free without proper guidance they can become anything without the proper instructions by their caretakers. The sinful nature and disobedient drive is in every human in this world, right from their youth as stated by the Lord in GEN 8:21, And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart [is] evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. {An evil spirit can drive the flesh also without the knowledge of, or the choice of an individual. Therefore recognizing the tools of evil, is the power to change evil.}
The sins of the fathers (Fleshes nature) to the third and four generation, will increase in intensity through willful disobedience. This is why you can see generations of corrupt families, doing the same sins in some of these sinful iniquities.
I must add that the good positive natures of some of the forefathers can also be seen in other generations. Mankind passes the increased sinful and good righteous nature down to the children 3 and 4 generations. You can see on one hand generations of families on social assistance and on the other hand you see generations of family doctors and lawyers etc. There is a orthopedic surgeon that operated on me four seven and has two brothers and a father that are doctors. What ever inner strength that the parents have are carried down to the children and encouraged by the parents. There are children that seem to break the mold and do differently the family traits and you may have a family of doctors and one child is a criminal. The negative and or positive natures of the forefathers can be seem in the children. In some cases whole families are dedicated to bigotry , pride and or shame and other sinful weaknesses of the flesh.
Have you ever seen or heard of someone acting or doing the same things as their grandparents, without knowing their doing it? Now you know why.
In the sinful response of children taking after their ancestors in some area, is simply because Satan knows this is where the ancestor was weak and he uses this weakness against you. Satan has been around for a long time and a lot longer then you. He knew and had seen your ancestor’s weakness in their time. He will use lies and deceptions if possible to convince the individual that they are okay in their weakness, and their sinful condition is inherited and or acceptable with God. Satan can make one think that those misdirected sins are okay to practice and they were born that way. Satan just wants to deceive the individual from the truth of their natural created order, and their good spirit, into accepting the lies that the flesh is not the cause of failure. This feeling of being okay gives the individual a false peace, but deep down inside they know there is something wrong. Satan wants to keep all mankind from the truth and the peace that comes from Christ. (God wants us to be at peace with him and our self, by him)
Romans 7:6 states…but now we are delivered (by Christ) from the law (or curse of the law and the guilt of being a law breaker) that being dead (separated from God’s Holy Spirit and truth) wherein we were held (by Satan through sin) : that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit (transformation strength through God’s Spirit by Christ) and not in the oldness of the letter. (bound by sin and found guilty by God’s Holy Commandments.)
I might add that God made one companion for Adam to complete that unit, not two or three etc. Anything beyond one male and one female as a unit is also going against God’s laws of the natural created order for the family unit. People or religious groups that have more than one spouse are caught up in lustful desires of the flesh plain and simple. Second man Adam (Christ), has one bride the true church.
When you judge someone that has been over taken by some sinful acts of disobedience and make yourself their judge in God’s place and then break some other law of creation or a law of God’s righteous decrees you are just as guilty as the homosexual or murderer etc. Always keep in mind that every individual is fighting off their own private demon that is working against their natural created order. Some of these faults are open to all and more noticeable to us then other faults. We are all in this war inside of us and have secrets to bear that we do not want to talk about or share. The urges and drives in iniquity are just as strong and just as difficult to overcome in different areas of sin and we all struggle in some way.
To finish off things being understood by what is created as pertaining to what our children are up against, I would like to add this final passage of scripture from, the book of Romans so we can better see and understand ourselves and our children’s struggles with this inner war of disobedience through sin.
Rom 7 verse five to twenty five……{{{Bold print, my comments. Actual verses are underlined for clarity and understanding.}}}
Rom 7:5-25…For when we were in the flesh (being without Christ and without hope), the motions of sin, which were by the law, (the feeling of shame through the guilt, of knowing you have transgressed the law of God) did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. But now we are delivered from the law, (We have entered Gods New covenant through the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ. See Heb 9:22) that being dead wherein we were held; (Our sins have separated us from God. GEN 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shall surely die. EZE 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. Our sins and the strength of the curse in Gen 2:17 cause the feeling of the shame of guilt of being a transgressor which brings the feeling of separation of spiritual death from God.) that we should serve in the newness of spirit, ( JOH 3:3-8 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man beborn of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 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. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.) and not in the oldness of the letter.
(HEB 8:5-10 Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, [that] thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount. But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. For if that first [covenant] had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: Heb 10:3-10 But in those [sacrifices there is] a remembrance again [made] of sins every year. For [it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: In burnt offerings and [sacrifices] for sin thou hast had no pleasure. Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. Above when he said Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and [offering] for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure [therein]; which are offered by the law; Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once [for all].) What shall we say to them? Is the law sin? (The law makes you aware of your transgression but the law itself is not unrighteous, but it’s the knowledge of your iniquity that makes you aware of your guilt.) God forbid, Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known Lust, ( or I had not understood that I was sinning) except the law said, thou shalt not covet. But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, (Knowledge of the trespass) wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. (meaning intense strong desire– covetousness. This is the fleshes way without God. The flesh tries to compensate for loss self control
of the inner self will, but looses control by the strength of the curse through the weakness of the will. This is because the strength of God’s transforming love is absent in the carnal man. This is why Jesus said you must be born again of God’s Spirit. It is the transforming love of God’s Spirit that changes the desires of the heart.) For I was alive without the law once; (This is the same condition that a innocent child feels. This is because they have not come to the knowledge of accountability when a crime that is unacceptable to
society is committed by them, because they have not understood that it was wrong. A child that commits a crime but lacks the knowledge of their trespass is protected by the innocence of their inner man from the guilt of the transgression. This we have labeled child innocence. The knowledge of being a transgressor and the inner conviction of the sin brings out the feelings of shame , guilt and condemnation through the curse of Genesis 2:17.) But when the commandment came, (and or the knowledge of the law and its consequences) sin
revived and I died. (The feeling of separation from God’s life and love because of transgression) And the commandment which was ordained to life, (or the life that was supposed to come by knowing the law , but no man can keep Gods law, all are law breakers.) I found to be unto death. (This is that separated feeling from God’s holy presence) For sin taking occasion by the commandments deceived me and by it slew me. (I am acutely aware of my trespass and God’s Holy displeasure and the separation I feel from him. The law makes me aware of my iniquities and reminds me that I am a law breaker and the penalty is death of body and soul, and separation from God.) Wherefore the law is holy and the commandment holy and just and good. Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid, but sin, that it might appear sin, (or the knowledge and understanding that one has broken God’s law and or commandment.) working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.
Note: Not only was God able to raise up the man Jesus after death by his divine Spirit but Christ was able to keep all God’s laws by the same spirit. We must remember that Christ was God’s word (John 1:14) in the flesh. God’s Word can never fail for God’s Word is all powerful and eternal as God is. Christ was able to be a law keeper and not a law breaker, as man is. In this God has redeemed man back to himself by himself by his eternal Living Word Of Truth, and thus receiving all the glory back to himself. The laws were meant to give life not death, but the sinful nature of mankind through Adam brought death to all. ((((ROM 5:17 -21 For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ. Therefore as by the offence of one [judgment came] upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one [the free gift came] upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, (This is the desire of the forefathers to sin passed down three to four generations.) so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. but where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.)))) Because the law was meant to give life , Jesus the son of man by his holy nature being the Living Word through the Spirit keeping the law , was able by that same law and Spirit to receive the gift of eternal life by keeping the law as a man for all men

According to the law Jesus as a man was granted eternal life (Rom 7:10), although the eternal Word in Jesus (John 1:1-3,14,18; 1John 1:1-3.) through the Spirit was life eternal. The Living Word and Spirit of God that was in Jesus the man could not fail because he the Word was God in the flesh (1TIm 3:16). Although they killed the body of Jesus the man yet was the Spirit of God in Jesus able raise him from the dead (Rom 8:11). This is why Jesus said to Philip these words in JOH 14:6-10 Jesus saith unto him (Philip), I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. JOH 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and ye hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father? Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in (Invisible God) me, he doeth the works. PSA 107:20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered
[them] from their ( self destructiveness ) destructions.
We must understand that the life Christ lived he did not live for himself nor did he become righteous for himself, because he was eternally righteous already being the living Word of God’s truth. Jesus became the living Mitzvah from out of the Hebrew Torah. We can see through the creation of man in things created that through Jesus God has recovered that which was lost by Adam through faith in his promise. The righteous life of Christ was given up to be a substitute for the unrighteous , and to keep the law in mans place to please the Father. Jesus was born for our sake , he lived for our sake and he lived as a law keeper in our place. He received the laws punishment in our place all to meet the righteous requirements of God’s Holy Laws in our place and he died and was raised for our sake.
God has revealed himself through the creation of the man Jesus. Jesus the man was granted eternal life because he was ordained to give life in that a man brought sin of rebellious disobedience into the world to all men, so Jesus the man brought humble obedience through submission to God’s law and paid the price to give life back through faith by God’s eternal promise to Abraham; Gen 17:4-8 As for me, behold, my covenant [is] with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed (My comment. This is referring to a righteous eternal seed not a people, for God‘s true Israel is a holy people that are part of a holy and eternal covenant made by God to Abraham taken from all nations. If one receives God‘s eternal seed then one receives eternal life through that seed and they become God‘s holy nation taken from all nations.) after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for a everlasting possession; and I will be their God. (Natural Israel is one nation not many)
Continuation of Romans 7.. These next few verses will come from the NIV Trans of the bible for clarity of understanding, starting at verse 15 to 25.
Romans 7:15-25.… I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. (The law accomplishes its purpose and makes me aware of a law I have trespassed.) As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. (Or the sinful disobedient drive in my flesh.)
I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have a desire to do what is good, But I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. (Or the sinful lustful desire of the drive of sin in my flesh) So I find this Law at work; when I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being (The mind of my soul and spiritual drive within me) I delight in God’s law but I see another law at work (War of the flesh against my soul and spirit) in my members of my body (flesh), waging war against the law of my mind (Spirits mind is the processor for the soul) and making me prisoner of the law of sin at work in my members.(Fleshy negative destructive emotions) What a wretched man I am: who will rescue me from this body (Carnal fleshy emotions) of death? thanks to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!(Christ has washed away my sins daily and renews my mind unto righteousness through the work of the Holy Spirit.) So
then I myself in my mind(1CO 2:14-16 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is
spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.) am a slave to God’s law, (HEB 8:10 For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a
God, and they shall be to me a people: PHI 2:5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus.) but in the sinful nature (flesh) a slave to the law of sin. ( or I cannot help or change my sinful flesh in my own strength but need the work of Christ within to transform me.)
We must be aware of the presence of sin within the flesh, and that our children are ignorant of this knowledge and of the war within. Therefore, we are held responsible to train and teach them as young as possible about the dangers of the flesh’s drive to be rebellious in pride of sin. If they are not instructed and left on their own to fend spiritually and mentally , the deceptions of the flesh and the work of Satan will overtake them and overpower them in self destruction through sin. Make them aware of what Paul the apostle was trying to teach in Romans chapter 7. It is the sinful drive that is passed down from generation to generation, but each person is held accountable for their own transgressions. See Eze 18:20.
Special Note: I must add to the end of these scriptures Romans 8:14, to show the benefits of spiritual growth achievements and learning through God’s Spirit by the work of Jesus Christ in the individual.
I must also mention the fact that I would not be the person I am today without this teaching and Christ in my life. The drive, the strength, the leading and love I have acquired in my life today all comes from the Spirit of God through the work of God’s living Word, Christ the Lord, whom dwells within me. Christ has truly made me to understand, feel and experience his work of reconciliation back to the Father that has transformed my life. See Rom 10:5. 2Cor 5:18-21.
I myself have been and done many things both unsavory and evil as others have of which I am not proud but am ashamed , before I came to understood the work of Christ. I was driven by some of the same iniquities that has captivated and destroyed some of you. I still struggle with the sinful flesh but at least now I know, understand and keep it restrained and subdued by the Spirit of God. God’s Spirit is transforming me by the work of Christ within. It is God’s Living Word within that has resurrected me into God’s heavenly Kingdom. It becomes easier when you learn how to surrender to God’s Mighty Spiritual Power. If every child was taught and made to understand this awesome Spiritual Power and the benefits of a healthy spirit, this would turn the world around in a few short generations. I have included a thoughtful helpful guide to spiritual surrender in this book entitled Surrender Through Focus, at the end of the section called An Eye Opening Look At Pride And Shame and Humbleness.
Now Romans 8:1-14. There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit (Of God). For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. (This is the mighty transforming power of the work of Christ to both change a life and set the mind and heart free from the
bondage of sin and the death that follows. 2CO 5:17 Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. GAL 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. JOH 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.) For what the law
could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. ( This is only done in a heart that is willing and allows the Holy Spirit to regenerate it.. Those that do not allow the spirit of God to work and have his way are only deceiving themselves.) For they that are after the flesh do mind (The mind is full of carnality) the things of the flesh, but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded ( carnally minded, meaning to gratify the desires of the flesh, lustfully oriented) is death: but to be Spiritually minded is life and peace, because the carnal mind is enmity, (enmity meaning, the attitude or feeling of an enemy or enemies: hostility) against God: for it is not subject to the law of God neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God, but ye are not in the flesh, (you have totally surrendered to the work of Christ within) but in the Spirit, if so that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you the body is dead because of sin: (Or separated from the desire to want to continuously sin) but the Spirit is life because of righteousness (Or the Spirit gives life and newness of mind through Christ) But if the Spirit of him that raised Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by that Spirit that dwelleth in you. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but through the Spirit do mortify (Mortify meaning to subdue: die away) the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
We must keep in mind that children are free spirits as we adults are. We tend to forget this and ignore their spiritual needs. You must keep in mind that children need constant attentive learning needs and tools spiritually. If you supply these needs your child will succeed spiritually in their inner being. You must first learn how to keep their attention according to their capacity to understand , then captivate their thinking and hold their attention so they can absorb. You must learn to come to them on their thinking level not yours. Parents try to put adult thinking on their children and this has been the parents mistake that seems to persist today. Parents make the mistake of talking down at, or above the child’s learning and comprehension levels.
Talking in a conversation that only a seasoned adult can fully understand does no justice to the child’s ability to learn and comprehend. You must try with all your heart making it the utmost importance to be a healthy and positive inspiration to your child. Learn in yourself ways to keep
them inspired within their inner man to help them succeed spiritually.
We can see clearly that most of mankind does not consider the things that are created and recognize God’s created ordered laws that truly work when applied. Mankind not only destroys his own life but passes on these generational iniquities to their children. We must be careful when raising our children because the things we do now and even after we have passed away will affect our children for generations to come.
Part B. The invisible things of God.
What can we say about this, seeing that no man has ever seen God
For God invisible see the following scriptures. John 4:23,24 John 1:18 John 5:37 John 6:44-47
1Tim 1:17 1Tim 6:15 Heb 11:24-39 1John 4:10-13 Col 1:15.
What are the reminders that we can notice that shows this invisible God’s mighty presence clearly by what is created? The answer is very simple but has many invisible points to observe. I will start with the most important! His……God’s Spirit. I have listed some scriptures already in John, Timothy, Hebrews Colossians, and 1John on God‘s invisibility.
The first thing is life . All living things have life because of God’s Spirit. NUM 16:22 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O God, the God of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man(Adam) sin, and wilt thou be wroth with all the congregation (Shall God be angry with holy because of unholy.)? NUM 27:16 Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man (Jesus Christ, See Due 18:15, Acts 7:37) over the congregation,
HEB 12:9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
JOH 6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
1JO 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
1JO 1:2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen [it], and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
God is not seen however, we know by the scriptures that we can see God in the man who was created in God’s image. 2CO 4:6 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.
The one man that God had chosen to represent himself to man was his first begotten Jesus Christ whom is known as the word in the flesh. John 1:14. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him]. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
1JO 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
JOH 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
JOH 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. (This is Christ Jesus speaking., the Living Eternal Word of God’s truth.)
We can see the invisible God in the godly man Jesus, by his power and his work as the Living Word of God in the flesh.
I asked God once how can I known him through creation. His answer was plain and clear, he said look at Jesus in what Jesus had done when he was on this earth.
1.…He changed water into wine showing that he could change or alter creation. 2.…He walked on water which showed he could defy creation.
3.…He calmed the storm and raging sea which showed he could control creation This was enough for me. Jesus was who the scriptures said he was the creator of all thing and the only God that had full control over creation as was shown by Jesus Christ….1TI 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. What was interesting about this is water was involved in each instance, which, however, is the bases for life and him (Christ) being the life giver and the living water from above. ( This is God’s symbolism at work)
So what else can we say of this invisible God who moved Christ to bear witness of this invisible God?
God’s Spirit is certainly invisible, but so is the wind, electricity, and thoughts, and we can see the effects of these invisible forces that affect our every day lives. All these are created things except God’s Spirit. So we will look at the affects of his Spirit first.
The awesome transforming power through the Holy Spirit is truly something to experience, behold and enjoy to say the least.
I think I should start with myself since I can bear witness of this invisible God through the power of his Holy Mighty Spirit. I have had first hand knowledge, experience and some incredible dealings with God’s Spirit. I will not speak of others because every man is different and God deals with each individual on their own level, which can be different from one person to the next according to their relationship with God.
JAM 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse [your hands, [ye] sinners; and purify [your] hearts, [ye] double minded. {The more you focus and get closer to God the closer he will come to you.}
Please bear in mind with me because I desire to share this knowledge with all mankind, but this article I have written, is with the innocent children in mind so you the parents can pass this learning on to you children.
I have come a long way in life’s journey since my childhood. I have had many personal tribulations and hardships. I have done acts and deeds both physical and in my heart that when I think of now turn my stomach. I have had many misfortunes to speak of, but because of God and his patience with me through his Mighty Spirit I can say that the knowledge, strength, drive and determination I have today comes from his teaching and leading. Eighty percent of the deep spiritual knowledge I have acquired comes directly by revelation from God’s Mighty Holy Spirit, see 1Cor 2:9,8. All that I am and will be he deserves the credit and glory for. Most of my writings come by direct inspiration. God’s teaching through his Spirit has sustained me and fully encouraged me, through deep inspiration in the knowledge of the promises, hidden shadows in the imagery in scripture, mysteries of scriptural parables (See Luke 8:10) and the beautiful metaphorical language that God uses in the scriptures to convey to us his deep and profound meanings that are hidden from the world in the truth of his word. See Matt 13:13-16.
God’s Spirit is invisible but He can heal a broken heart, give strength in times of trouble, inspire to righteousness, give spiritual guidance with wisdom, convict of sin, forgive through the atonement work of Jesus Christ, heal relationships, teach about God and his promise, recover a broken spirit, suppress and conquer the evil within, heal a broken and confused mind, conquer the sinful fleshy desire, restore fellowship with God and so much more, yet He is invisible. (See ST John 16:7-15, 1John 2:20)
All these are the effects of this invisible force of this invisible God Spirit that is not seen. Yet we can see him in a new created man (2CO 5:17 Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. GAL 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.) and visible through the working of Christ within a born again believer making and recreating the believer in his holy likeness.
I have felt this invisible force many times through my life yet I do not see God, but his presence is clearly seen through the outward obvious and apparent acts and work within me. There are many that have come to know this invisible God through Christ the Lord. (See 1John 3:8.) Christ Jesus is the living breathing active and visible Word of God. If Christ is both the Word and Lord then he should be the LORD of your life, thus making him Lord of all. This is how God Lords over our lives through his Word Of Truth.
The spirit of man is suppressed by the disobedience and rebelliousness against God’s Spirit that gives and sustains the life of creation. This suppression can lead to oppression to depression that destroys mankind’s emotions and thinking process to cause the spiritual drive of mankind to spiral downward in negative and destructive ways in the spiritual drive. (You must always remember that your spirit is what drives the character of your soul, If your spirit is high and positive you will be and do well, however, if your spiritual drive is low and negative you will not do well but be destructive to self and or others.)This drive pushes the emotions to levels of lows that destroy the character of the individual. This effects mans physical body which is the battle ground between the fleshy body and mind against the soul and spirit. This causes destructive actions in the flesh and the evil that’s within the flesh of mankind.
(HEB 4:12 For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. HEB 4:13; Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things [are] naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do……This action of the Word of God is the cause of the withdraw that one feels from a drug user to over sexual to a person that has withdraw from using their computer when prohibited for any reason, there is no difference the actions of God’s word will still divide soul and spirit. This causes inner stresses that destroy the body where the battle ground occurs. The reason for this is the body and carnal mind are of the earth and the soul and spirit are from God. When the carnal flesh opposes that which belongs to God the results is chaos of the created order. This is what the Lord revealed to me of the creation. When Satan opposed God‘s created order the result was the chaos in him that affected the earth and the heaven and caused what some call the big bang. Truth is, it was not a big bang but a big bounce. Satan was bounced out of heaven and cast to the earth where chaos still exist and God’s order is lacking. When Christ returns he shall put all things in order again. God has allowed this so that rebellion can run it’s coarse and finish at the end to return Gods’ created order. See 2Pet 3:10,11.
The amazing thing that I have learned is that focusing and staying surrendered and submitted by giving in and giving up to God‘s Spirit produces peace, joy and rest to the soul. The reasons why are found in these next few verses !!!
JOH 14:26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. JOH 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. JOH 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. JOH 15:11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and [that] your joy might be full. JOH 15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. To have God in your life on a daily basses you must have a intimate spiritual loving relationship mingle with trust through faith that pleases the Father. If you truly love your children and care about their lives, teach your children these lessons of the truth of God’s amazing Living Word, Christ the Lord and they will grow to be spiritual power houses that can and will change the world around them.)
My life has been one stomach churning roller coaster as seen briefly in my life story. Others have experienced worse no doubt and can tell hair raising stories that seen unbelievable and or unfortunate. I truly do recognize that in my spiritual being I must be strong and inwardly healthy to survive the destruction that the sinful flesh can cause and the deceptions of Satan. This knowledge has made me strong by God’s Living Word. My mother taught me early when I was a very young child the lessons of inner strength and in her teaching directed me towards God before her death in my tenth year. These things I have not forgotten but have taken to heart. My mother’s father was also a great inspiration to me in my latter years that helped me see and realize this foundation by the holy life he lived for God.
Children need to know and understand as soon as possible that they are free spirits, meant to be spiritually healthy and to worship the God of all creation through their free spirits and their curious souls. You parents are responsible not only for your child’s physical well being but what is more important, their inner spiritual well being, which is mostly forgotten, not understood and or neglected by most parents. If the inner spiritual drive is weak so will mind and soul be weak because of the sinful flesh.
Satan through his deceptions and lies will destroy spirit, mind and soul through the weaknesses in the flesh by the evil disobedience of prides rebellion. This is why so many messed up and confused children and adults cannot seem to control their life to have positive and effect growing and learning patterns. The sinful prideful and disobedient flesh and or Satan has blinded and deceived them from the truth of their inner being and weakened their spiritual drive and the mind of the soul from the true being, that God had meant them to be.( See Gal 6:7-9.) {Man’s spirit becomes a slave to unrighteousness}
While writing this portion of this last paragraph I had to go to the grocery store. While at the checkout I happen to notice a young boy about three years old knock over a small kiosk. At that point the Lord’s Spirit spoke to me and said observe closely what’s about to take place and record this right at this point in your writings for an example on children’s behavior and the responses of the fleshy nature so parents will learn and understand. The father then mildly scolded the young lad and pulled him away from the kiosk while picking up what fell. At this point the little boy when he realized he had done something wrong was chastised then began to scream, kick and holler very loud. As I watched the Lord said see all the different emotions kicking in because of the sinful fleshy nature. I agreed . Then the Lord took me to the passage in GEN 8:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart [is] evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. And also this verse from out of the NIV Trans. Rom 8:20,21 For the creation was subjected to frustration not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected in hope that the creature itself will be liberated from the bondage to decay and brought unto the glorious freedom of the children of God. These verses in the book of Rom 8:20,21 are the soul reasons for the emotional disorders found in mankind from youth up that started after Adams transgression and has increased to the levels that we see in children today. This is the
This is what happened through the transgression , and this is God’s response because of his love. I call this the ten Ss’, s being the number of completion in scripture. God’s plan was complete with ten by S.

curse and it’s effects of pride and shame that is in the human fleshy makeup. It is the frustrations of failure or knowing your error that brings feelings of the shame of guilt. It is the guilt of knowing that you have transgressed or made a mistake that causes the pride in a physical emotional response that can be any ware from low levels of anger to rage at self or others. It is the pride of the heart that will cause anger, rage, jealousy, envy, sinful and willful evil desires. ( Clear understanding of this sinful cycle see the entire section that deals with pride and learn also who truly own pride.)
The parents of this little boy did nothing to stop his rampage, however the mother picked him up and left the store obviously embarrassed. So what was
wrong with this picture. The parents did not show the love that would teach the child self restraint, self discipline, respect of self, respect to authority or others property and showed none of these attributes within themselves.
Why is this? There are a few scriptures that come to mind. MAT 24:12
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 2TI 3:1-5 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men
(and children) 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. These parent and this child do not or have not the true love that comes from God. There are those that think things are okay and that God is pleased with their actions. Just as it is stated in the end portion of this verse, they have a form of godliness but do not know, have a lack of understanding of, the transforming power of God’s Holy Spirit and love.
This little boy was certainly experiencing the unlawful, unordered, and inner chaos of the flesh that can explode on any and every thing around it. This is where Satan can get an upper hand in the flesh if the parents are not aware of these tools Satan uses. (Frustration unchecked is a damaging action to your created being)
Here is a special note for you parents to understand and remember when dealing with your children.
Special note: {Anyone driven by frustration that causes sinful anger, is, a target of Satan’s evil desires.)
(1) Your mind is Satan’s work shop and an idle mind is Satan’s play ground.
(2) Your desires and lusts are the tools of Satan’s trade.
(3) Your weakness of will, and or emotions and over active lusty desires, are the power sources of his tools.
(4) Deceit and lies, is the owners manual, that Satan uses to perform his crafty business.
In these four areas Satan if allowed, and will totally destroy your entire created innocent child’s being.
In these last days Satan has had a field day in destroying the family structure and taken from the parents the ability to properly train and teach their children the truth’s of the inner-man. He has had a party with the emotions and the minds of our children through their sinful and lustful desires in pride and shame. We have lost control of the things that are important to pass on to our children. Today of some our children are so messed up that they destroy every thing in and around them. Suicide also today is a very serious problem in our teen children. We are loosing the battle when we should be winning through , and by Christ.
(Four is the number of creation in scripture, because all the material world was finished in the first four days. This is why you see the number four mostly
associated with created things and creation in scripture. Satan tries with all that is in him to destroy God’s created world. Even Satan himself was created, by this invisible God that we poorly understand today. See Col :16.)
I will give a few scriptures on God and his Spirit so we can better understand the workings of this invisible God Spirit that so many of us misunderstand and or do not know or recognize in self or in creation.
St John 14;16,17,26. (This is Jesus speaking) and I will pray to the Father and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever. Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him. But you know him, for he dwelleth in you, and shall be in you. But the Comforter which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you. (The day I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit is such a memorable day that the experience of that moment is still fresh in my memory in the feelings I felt, my thoughts and the actual touch of God’s Spirit. I remember praying for the promise as Jesus had promised the disciples in Mark 16:15-18 and Luke 24:49. I was crying and praying telling the Lord that he promised and I wanted with all my heart to feel his touch. I had tarried several times prior in my life but my heart was not fully committed. I was more curious than wanting and needing. This time I was fully committed and in for the long haul. When the Holy Spirit grabbed my lips I went from total surprise to total amazement and wonderment at what was taking place. I could feel my lips being lifted up and down in rapid succession by God’s Spirit and thinking at the same time I am not doing this. As this was occurring this heavenly language came out of my mouth and I began to cry and heave with large tear drops falling down my face. I remember thinking about the Words of Jesus in Mark 16:17 and what happened on the day of Pentecost in Acts 2:1-4. (I am almost in tears again writing this) As I cried that day my heart was pounding, lips flapping and my mind was racing with the thought, Father you touched me, please forgive me all my sin . I realized and knew for sure in my heart and through my physical body that God had touched me. When I left our little Church that day I had this feeling of walking on this heavenly cloud for about four months solid. Since that day the lord has been with me in some very special and amazing supernatural ways of which are too numerous to write about here, so I will stick to this day of my first personal touch from my God and Savoir. There have been many dealing of this nature by the Lord with me but I must remember here that this writing is about children not me so forgive my long windedness here.)
St John 15:26…But when the Comforter is come, who I will send unto you from the Father even the Spirit of truth, which proceeded from the father, he shall testify of me.(Or make known the revelation knowledge of Christ from Genesis 1:1 to Revelations 22:21. Through this invisible Spirit of God.)
St John 16:7-15. Never the less I tell you the truth: it is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the comforter will not come unto you: but if I depart , I will send him unto you, And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment because the prince of this world is judged. I have many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me:
For he shall receive of mine, and shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are mine; therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Give your children all you can and do not deprive them of this awesome invisible God’s Holy Spirit. For this Invisible God Spirit will help them succeed, in this sometimes destructive and depressing life we live, we need this invisible God in our lives.
Other invisible reminders in creation of this invisible God that created it, can be seen in the following. Wind, which we do not see yet it’s effects are clearly seen everywhere. Another invisible force is electricity. Electricity is certainly invisible and can pass through things as dense as gold wire. We can measure it’s force and strength by the evident affects of it’s actions. Electricity can be used metaphorically to understand this Invisible God Spirit. God’s Spirit can pass through the densest and hardest of hearts to bring out the strength and beauty that is hidden under the sinful flesh in the soul and light up the darkest of lives turning the heart to gold, Rev 3:18. Those that have been touched by God’s Spirit do and can feel the strength and force used to accomplish God’s purpose in a submitted soul by his invisible Spirit.
Another invisible force (And this one in it’s purest form belongs to God) of creation in man is love. You cannot see love, you cannot hold love in your hand, you cannot taste love with your taste buds because it is a inner spiritual force, but we certainly can see and feel the strength and effects of love in ourselves and others. Acts of love can mend a broken heart, restore relationships, raise families etc. There are thosethat can certainly test the strength of our human love by the negative forces they display in themselves.
There are those that would argue, the wind and electricity are not alive. On the surface this argument would seem valid. The rebuttal to that would sound like this. Is not the earth considered a living breathing organism. Is not the human body a living breathing (wind) organism with electrical impulses? It is the life giving invisible God that has done these things and causes all to exist and have life!!! {{{While I am writing about life here I cannot help but mention the building blocks of life which men have termed DNA(Deliverance New Atonement). This will be just a brief statement but one that is significant. I believe that the hand print of God is everywhere in creation as stated in Rom 1:20. Everything in creation is ordered by God’s Mighty Spirit and it takes a keen spiritual eye to see God’s hand print of his presence. See 1Cor 2:6-10, noting verse ten). I can see his handy work through metaphorical messages speaking to me in creation on a constant bases. It is the revelation of himself through creation as stated in Revelation 1:1. The whole book of the bible in the events and the peoples lives scream out the truth of God through his Living Word Jesus Christ. Now to the small brief statement I promised to reveal to you about DNA.
Proteins are small molecules that do all the jobs inside the cell except for storing information, which is left up to the DNA. Proteins clean up cells and make energy. By the 1960’s scientist discovered that even simple cells are made up of thousands of different types of proteins. Proteins cannot self assemble without DNA. DNA has a molecule that has a property that cannot be explained through natural processes .Locked secretly within the double helix structure is the wealth of information in the form of precisely sequenced chemicals that scientist represent with the letters A, T, C ,G(Atonement Truth Christ God). In a written language information is communicated by a precise arrangement of letters. In the same way the instruction necessary to assemble amino acids into proteins are conveyed by the sequence of chemical arrangement along the spine of the DNA. This chemical code has been called the language of life. It is the most densely packed and elaborately detailed assembely of information in the known universe.
The moment I seen this process and noticed the letters used the Spirit of God immediately spoke to me and said, do you see me in the usage of these assigned letters by scientist , Atonement, Truth, Christ, God; and for DNA, Deliverance, New Atonement. He brought to my mind Heb chapters 8 and 10. I was so amazed and astonished that God had used scientist to assign the letters metaphorically to DNA to show his name and his purpose through Christ in the building blocks of life. Christ is life and gives life eternal. God’s finger print is every where if we look for it! (Yes my Lord I see You, and You are, ASTONISHINGLY AWESOME AND INCREDIBLE!)
All these things and more are the effects of this very powerful and invisible force of God’s Holy Spirit. When a person truly feels and understands the love of God to the best of there human ability, the awesome and over whelming presence of God’s love through his Holy Spirit when experienced by the believer ,can be spiritually breath taking and mind boggling in the depth of God’s limitless and hidden knowledge.
There are other invisible forces of creation in the ordained order that are in creation apart from the chaos that man and Satan causes. The universe has an invisible force called gravity that keeps the heavens in an adhesive order called Dark Matter that holds the galaxies and planets together and Dark energy that is pushing the universe apart.
The galaxies have their own order that maintain them. The earth is a living organism that has many different types of order. The human body that may well be the most complex biological living created thing has an invisible force and order that sustains it’s life. When the life force is gone the flesh’s cycle of life is stopped and the order that is beyond this life is started. ( The Indians have a phrase for death called drop the body). The thoughts of our mind are invisible but the actions of a thought can be very profound or inspirational to degrees and or feats and actions that are amazing.
There are many invisible and visible created things that are stamped with the hand print of this invisible Divine Creator that has ordered all. These all testify to, for and of this invisible God and his presence in creation.
Part C. Holding The Truth In Unrighteousness.
What can we say about this except that it is evident by some of the things I have written about, and thousands more, that man either wonders about, acknowledges or ignores these facts of God at some point in their lives. Every person that has ever walked this planet has no excuse about God’s presence because he has made himself clearly known through what has been created, and in the promised Christ.
There is too much order with visible and invisible reminders, showing that there is a super and awesome intelligence behind the whole creation that we live in and understand as intelligent humans.
We do things that break God’s laws and order and promote and encourage each other to do the same. We look for partners in crime to transgress God’s Laws. We find ways to justify our misdirected sinful disobedience. We bend, twist, break, destroy and hide the truth of God to future our selfish , prideful and lustful desires. We have changed the truth of God and his promises and plans into humanistic lies, and ideas, we have come to the age of the Laodiceans of Revelations 3:14-22.
We use the wisdom of the flesh (See James 3:11-18.) in place of the wisdom of God’s Holy Righteous Spirit and think that we through our own thinking will gain access to God‘s Holy Presence. This is what we have been feeding our Children’s spirits and damaging their little souls.
We are guilty of the fault Jesus accused the people of his time. He (Jesus) said, why do you teach and preach the doctrines of men for God. We have in our own foolish vanities brought God down in our minds to our sinful levels of self gratifications to promote our rebellious sinful disobedience and then pass these sinful transgression on to our children to continue in.
Romans 1:17-19… For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from heaven from faith to faith, (Or from the Old Covenant into the New Covenant.) For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who hold the truth in unrighteousness because that which may be known of God is manifested in them,
God hath shewed it unto them. (His entire created order and laws scream out his name, his plan, his authority, his salvation and the final conclusion. What’s wrong with us?)
I will give a few scriptural examples of holding the truth in unrighteousness.
Acts 17:28-30…For in him we live, and move and have our beings; as certain of your poets have said, we are Also his offsprings. Forasmuch then we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or Stone, or graven art and man’s devices. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent.
Ephesians 5:1-9… But ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ hath loved us and hath given himself for us an offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour. But fornication and all uncleaness, or covetousness let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints. Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient; but rather giving of thanks for this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, Hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them. For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord; walk as children of the light; (For the fruit of the spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
The Scriptures in themselves testify to the wonders of God. We read them and do not heed them. We say we know and understand but the foolishness we promote speaks against us. In leaving these thought on holding the truth in unrighteousness I will give these verses of scripture.
2TI 3:1-10 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. (This is the transforming power of the work of Christ through the Holy Spirit) 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.
Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all [men], as theirs also was. But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
Part D. God’s Eternal Power And Godhead.
This can be a very difficult statement for some to both explain and understand, but I, will do my best.
God’s eternal power is the invisible force that sustains all the creation including your very breath. God’s eternal power is everlasting, unbreakable and unchangeable. God’s eternal power is what sustains all the laws of creation and it’s order that is contained in his written laws and codes. God’s eternal power is what keeps this sinful world afloat because of his mercies. God’s eternal power through the time table of his divine truth and plan will one day stop the sin in this world forever. {God’s eternal power, Christ the Word}
The Godhead is the controlling feature of Gods’ power that makes him The Almighty.
The Godhead can only be seen in and through God’s Living Word, Christ. All our understanding and knowledge must also come through Christ, as stated in Colossians 2:2,3. That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of the mystery of God and the Father and of Christ. In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Also 1Cor 1:24… But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
It is so very important to understand the Living word of God who is Christ, in his position, and his authority and power in the Godhead. All Laws, orders, decrees, blessings, curses, act of love and mercies, judgments of destruction, commands concerning salvation etc, etc; must come from and pass through the Godhead and through God’s Word Christ who hath all the fullness in himself. See Col 1:18,19; 2:9.
If man was created in the image and likeness of God then there must be some kind of similar connection. Since God is infinite and invisible it is almost impossible to nail down what he may look like. Therefore our
closest guess will come from the image and likeness in whom was created directly after his person the man Jesus whom is known as the Christ. See John 1:18. John 14:6,9,10,12. John 17:4,5.
I’ll start by saying this!
Our words are the verbal expressions and manifestation of our thoughts and who we are. Our actions are the fruit of our words in motion. Our spirit is the motivator that presses and pushes at our physical bodies to act out our thoughts of our words in outward visible actions.
We as mankind are body soul and spirit. Our bodies do the physical work. Our soul and mind are the invisible active forces that allow our words to create physical actions by the body. Our spirits are the driving force that pushes or urges our bodies to perform the soul and minds words in desired actions. This is how man functions as a knowing intelligent living being. If we are made in God’s image and likeness then in some minor finite way we must resemble God. ( The mind is the processor of your soul that is motivated by your spirit, these are the invisible parts of your being that are eternal and separately different from the body.. Your brain is the processor for your body and is motivate by prideful desires and addictive lusts of the flesh, these are the visible parts of your being ,they are not eternal but temporal. This is your duel existence in this life. Satan will mess with the invisible portions of your existence (Inner man of the soul) because he Satan is an invisible eternal spirit, so that he can destroy the visible portion of your being(Soul). By this through your frustrations and emotions he can deceive you into transgressing God’s Spirit. When this occurs the desires of your being become corrupted, and the transgression enables the curse of God’s law to destroy your entire being. There is no exception, all mankind’s beings must submit to God’s Holy eternal law(Luke 10:27). At the end of the line of transgression is at death(Natural and spiritual), where your soul and spirit are separated from the body’s brain and flesh. The only way out is through God’s promises that are fulfilled through Christ.)
If we are like God body(John 1:14, Rom 1:4), soul(Isa 1:14) and spirit(Psa 40:14,22, Ecc 1:14, Hag 1:14, Rom 8:14) beings, finite as we are it may be hard to totally equate our beings that are finite to a being that is invisible and infinite. I will try my best with the knowledge God has given me through Christ without changing God’s divine image as I see and understand him.
I think the only true and correct place to look is at man, since man is the only creature in the likeness and in the image of God.
Question. Is God body soul and spirit as mankind is?
Lets look first at the reply Jesus made to Philip when Philip asked to see the father.
St John 14:9,10. Jesus said unto him, have I been so long time with you and yet has thou not known me Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the father: and how sayest thou then, show us the Father. Believest
thou not that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me he doeth the works.
You may ask me why I am giving so much detail in this article for children. Because if you do not try to understand God as much as humanly possible then how are you going to explain God and teach your little children the truth of this invisible God Spirit and his living Word that can transform you and you child.
Lets look at Hebrews 1:1-3…God who at sundry time and in divers manners spoke in times past unto the fathers by the prophets. Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things by whom he also made the worlds. Who being the brightness of his glory and the express image of his person and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high. (Christ, Active, Living , Visible Word of God)
We can see by the statement of Jesus to Philip and in Hebrews that the invisible God whom no man hath seen is clearly represented in the person of Christ the Lord the Living Word in a physical sense and image.
So now we have briefly looked at God’s physical body through the man Jesus that was appointed by God to be the Christ in that he represent the fullness of God to mankind on a personal earthy level. In the Old covenant God was unapproachable and mystical to the people of that time but now we have access to God fully in and through the person of Christ the Lord.
So what about God’s mind?
Your soul is who you are or the inner character of what your thoughts are all about. Your mind is the souls thinking processor in action. Your words are the combination and the results of your soul’s thoughts and mind’s action in a physical sense.
After saying that I must add that no man knows the mind of God except what is revealed to him through the words of the physical action of God’s soul and mind spiritual, which also is his Living Word. (This is why we look to the Living Word of God Jesus the Christ, to understand this invisible God Spirit.)
To see and understand as much as we can by what is written lets look at a few scriptures on God’s Word which is the content of God’s soul and minds action in what he reveals to us through is Living Word.
We will start with St John 1;1-4, and also verses 10-12, 14, 16-18..In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him: and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life: and the life was the light of man. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came to his own and his own received him not. But to as many as received him to them gave he the power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe in his name. And the Word was made flesh (Jesus the man) and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory, the glory of the only begotten of the Father , full of grace and truth. And of his fullness have we received grace for grace.(Grace from old to new covenants) No man hath seen God at any time: the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
I must add these verses of scripture from St John 17:5 to see the true origin of Christ. O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. (Eternal Living Word)
Colossians 1:15-19… Who is the image of the invisible God , the first born of every creature. For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones or dominions or principalities or powers, all things were created by him and for him, and he is before all things and by him all things consist., and he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead that in all things he might have pre-eminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell. (See Colossians 2:9-15 namely verse 9)
Hebrews 1:1-3…God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by [his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of [his] glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
Galatians 4:1-6…Now I say, [That] the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, (Flesh)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. (God’s Word is hidden in our hearts).
1John 1:1-4… That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen [it], and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
I cannot leave out this scripture in Genesis 15:1,2. After these things the Word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision saying, fear not, Abram, I am thy shield and thy exceeding great reward.
And lastly for this train of thought. Hebrews 10:4-7 For [it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: In burnt offerings and [sacrifices] for sin thou hast had no pleasure. Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. Jesus is the written and living physical expression of God’s desires. Jesus is God’s Word, John 1:14. Jesus is the visible processor of the mind of the invisible God in physical and written actions.
We have now had a small glimpse of the thoughts of God’s soul and actions of his mind, accomplished by the physical actions and work of God the Spirit through his Living Word, whom is God in the flesh, Jesus he Christ. See 1Tim 3:16.
God’s Spirit is the driving force behind the Godhead. The Holy Spirit is the mover of all the great men of faith. The Holy Spirit moves men of God in many different areas and on many different levels. He teaches, gives wisdom, understanding, insight, warnings, encouragement, helps soothes, gives gifts and spiritual fruit of love all to aid man in man’s spiritual developing process to make those of his children more like himself. The Holy Spirit is the motivating force for all these things and more to move man towards correction and restoration. It is that silent Word of God that speaks to the hearts of men enforced spiritually.
Example: 2Pet 1:12 For prophecy came not of old time by the will of men: but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. St Mark 1;12 And immediately the Spirit drove him into the wilderness. (Jesus)
ST Luke 2:40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
JOH 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life.
JOH 7:37 In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet [given]; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
ACTS 4:31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
ACTS 7:51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers [did], so [do] ye.
ACTS 8:39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
TIT 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; (through his motivation in the word)Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
HEB 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
1PE 1:11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
1Jn 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: (or is not motivated to recognizes Christ) and this is that [spirit] of antichrist whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
I mentioned prior, how the spirit drives the thoughts of the soul through the process of the mind and the actions that move the body according to words or the text of the souls mind. When a person is driven (or directly motivated) in their spirit by misdirected accumulated words of the thoughts of the soul, the body responds to these actions in a positive manner or a negative manner, according to the content of the text of the words of the soul and mind. In the case of the scriptures it is the opposition of the gospel of the Spirit of God in Christ that opposes the disobedient spirit in man ,that has been corrupted by rebellion in the flesh. This is where the inner war takes place and the natural body and carnal mind become the battle field between the spirit and soul against the body in it’s brain’s carnal desires. The looser is always the outer man of the body and carnal mind. The outer man ‘s will cannot overcome the destruction and rampant desires of the lusty flesh or the strength of God’s curse of the separation in the flesh that divides soul and spirit and the substance of the flesh. (SEE Heb 4:11-13.)
So now by looking at the scriptures we can see that the Spirit of God is the driving force behind the plan of salvation (See John 16:13-16) in the expressed desires of God’s Soul. The Spirit of God is also the force that brings man’s spirit and God together again through his work in Christ Jesus.
God’s soul’s desires is that we recognize his promises through Christ. This is motivated and revealed by his Spirit and that we put away all our religious and earthly habits and practices……(See ISA 1:1-20.)
This is a summary of you working existence .
Your soul is the knowing part of your eternal living being that makes up the character of who you are and is processed by the mind. (Thus they became a living soul as recorded in Genesis. The soul and spirit of man are eternal and will spend eternity according to Gods choosing through the choices made by that soul) Your mind is the processor for your soul and work together as one to form your character. Your words are the invisible active expressions of the thoughts of your soul’s mind. Invisible by the vision in your mind and soul of what you desire. The visible is the action of your souls’ mind in your deeds, or in written form and expressions in text. Your words and body work together as one, your spirit is the energizing force that brings soul, mind, body and words together. The spirit is the adhesive that holds all things together as one to perform desired actions. When the spirit and soul are removed at death that adhesive bond is broken to separate the soul’s mind and the spirit, from the body and the desires of the earthy flesh and carnal brain. This is when the spirit and soul shall return unto God who gave it. JBO 34:15 All flesh shall perish together, and man shall turn again unto dust. ECC 3:21 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth? HEB 12:9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
By teaching your children the values and benefits of their spiritual being(eternal inner man of the soul), you may save the world from another child molester, drug dealer, murder, terrorist etc. You must guard your Child’s soul, and mind against the corruptions of the flesh and the deceptions of Satan to protect their spiritual drive and desires in the right direction. Do not think that all children’s emotional levels, spiritual drive and desires to do right and or wrong are the same as yours may be, because they are not.
Take for instance fear, as one example: In a potentially fearful situation one child may not respond and act as the next. One child may cry and tremble by some experience while another may laugh and enjoy the situation. Their responses are a result of how you have interacted with them in daily life. Some parents like to throw their small children into the air in fun and games and catch them as they plummet down. One baby will laugh and enjoy the experience up and down, where as another baby will be overly terrified. Each child is different and you need to understand this to gauge each child’s emotional levels to teach your child their proper spiritual drive and emotional responses.. The effects you have on your child’s development by the things you do are incredibly long lasting and become deeply rooted in their characters.
In the June 16/ 2000 issue of Maclean’s Magazine page 12, there was an article on children and separated parent’s. I also want to mention these two news articles that caught my attention and two sad stories about child abduction that brought tears to my eyes. I am writing these into this section to point out the danger that comes from people that are out of control and vent their frustrations or lustful desires on innocent children.
Story One: On Fox News June 16/2008.
They ran a story of a couple that tied the father’s son to a tree for 18 hours to teach the boy a lesson. The boy subsequently dies from the ordeal and the father and step mother were arrested.
Story Two: Also Detroit News, either 15th or 16th of June 2008.
A man was beating and kicking an infant. The police were called and at the time of their arrival the man was still assaulting the infant. The police ordered him to stop but he continued to assault the infant viciously so
the police shot the man dead. The Police were to late to save the infant because it died from the attack.
Do you want this to happen to your child or grandchild? This could have been anyone from your son to your grandson that done this to this infant. Do you want your children to grow up to be like these people in these two stories? Do you want you child to grow up to be like Richard Davis that abducted and killed Poly Klaas in 1993 or Like David Mitchell that abducted Elizabeth Smart, in 2002. Or do you want to help and prevent the ordeals these children and others have suffered , or do you want turn your child into a monsters as these evil men by not correcting your children? You Need to train them early in the teaching that the scripture teach from some one that understands the teaching of Christ through God’s Spirit. If we do not properly address these problems and the whole child’s being body, soul, mind and spirit, we run the risk of damaging their spiritual drive in negative way’s from which they cannot recover in self as show in these people of these stories . They will also become totally misdirected adults.
Getting back to the story June 16, 2000 of Mac lean’s Magazine of a child separated by the courts and given to the mother.
An Ontario court judge ruled sole custody to a mother because the ex-husband systematically brain washed the son to hate the mother.
Brain washing by separated parents can range from bad-mouthing to a campaign to remove the other parent from the child’s life.. What happens is parents who do this are so caught up in their emotions that they loose sight of their children’s needs. The child gets confused and mixed messages about life and their lives may be affected for years or life. You must not forget the awesome responsibility you have as a parent, no matter what your situation may be like in life.
Getting back to looking at the Spirit of God, we can see some of the fruits of God ‘s character given to man by this invisible God through the work of Christ within the heart of the believer.
ISA 44:25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise [men] backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
ISA 59:14 And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.
JER 7:24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels [and] in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
JER 15:6 Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.
LAM 1:8 Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore she is removed: all that honoured her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yea, she sigheth, and turneth backward. JOH 18:6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am [he], they went backward, and fell to the ground. What must be noted is it says tree as in one not trees as in two. This river is symbolic of crossing the river Jordan unto the promised land that flows with milk and honey, or the two covenants )
There are twelve fruit of the Spirit of God that should rule over the life of a believer, I will list them here, and following will be Satan’s corrupted twelve fruit of his spirit.
Good Fruit and Seed=(Luke 8:11)There are twelve fruit of the Spirit of God on the tree that should rule over the life of a believer, which are based upon the words’ of Christ. John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
We will list here the nature of the twelve fruit here.
(Gal 5:22,23). There are nine fruit listed here. Spiritual fruit type, origins from God(Gen 1:26, Gen 2:7), followed by fruits meaning! Since man was created in the image and likeness of God and God’s breath was breathed into the earthly man, all nine may be present, or any number of, therefore, man has these first nine fruit from birth, that can cause mankind to love out of works of these nine! (These 12 fruit never spoil or fall off the tree!)
- Love. A deep feeling of fondness and friendship, great affection or devotion, devoted to.
- Joy. Strong feelings of pleasure, gladness: happiness.
- Peace. Freedom from war or strife of any kind; not quarreling, state of quietness.
- Longsuffering. Enduring trouble, pain, or injury from another or others, long and patiently.
- Gentleness. Not severe, rough, or violent, mild, easily handled, tamed or managed.
6. Goodness. The quality or state of being good; excellence, virtue.
7. Faith. Believing without visible proof (1Tim 1:17), trust; confidence, reliance.
8. Meekness. Patient; not easily angered; mild, submitting tamely when injured, these injuries may be true or false.
9. Temperance. Moderation in action, speech, habit, etc.
The following three are God’s alone, and no man or woman can or ever will be able to in their own natural created strength, possess, copy, or demonstrate these three, because they belong to God alone, all by himself. They must only come and be applied within mans spirit by the born again process, ordered by God John 3:3-8. What should be noted is, that God’s Holiness stands alone in Rom 6:22. Heb_12:14, because truth (Christ, John 6:63, John 14:6), leads to righteousness (Spirit. Zec 4:6), leads to holiness (God. Ex 15:11, Psa 93:5, Mark 1:14), to God, and God gives Peace (Isa 9:6, Acts 3:15). 1Pe_1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. (Where peace resides within there is life within, where war resides within there is death, within and without, because peace is the state of quiet, and war is the absence of peace, in the state of unrest, that brings about war. This can occur within the inner man and or in this ungodly world.)
(Ephesians) 5:9 There are two listed here. Spiritual fruit type, followed by fruits meaning.
- Righteousness. Upright conduct; virtue, the state or condition of being right and just.
- Truth. The quality or property of being in accord with fact or reality.
(Romans) 6:22 One listed here. Spiritual fruit type, followed by fruits meaning.
- Holiness. Belonging to God alone, set apart for God’s service.
All twelve of God’s Spirit’s fruit should govern your child’s life. If you know not God, teach your self and your children as best as you can anyway.
Not only are there twelve fruits of God’s Spirit but also twelve gifts of God’s Spirit also. These two spirit sorts, are given by God to govern the church(Good and or evil).
Satan’s 12 fruit of his corrupt unrighteous tree.
Matt_13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom (John3:3-8); but the tares are the children of the wicked one; (“Rev 12:9.”)
At the end of every evil fruit listed, is the opposite fruit of God’s Spirit listed in RED for comparison of the two seeds that produce the fruit.

(God’s life giving fruit truth, from Christ) Origin Heaven
- Ungodliness. Rom 1:18 2TIm 2:16. Deaths final Works.
(God’s unique life sustaining fruit, Holiness) Origin
There are also twelve gifts(Used for good or evil) are all listed in 1Corinthians chapter twelve verses 8-10 and 28,29.
1. Word of wisdom.
2. Word of knowledge.
3. Faith.
4. Healings.
5. Miracles.
6. Prophecy.
7. Discerning of spirits.
8. Divers tongues and interpretations of tongues.
9. Apostles.
10. Teachers.
11. Governments.
12. Helps.
What is most important and should be directly noted is faith which is listed as a gift and a fruit.
This is because all things pertaining to God come by faith in God as recorded in the book of Hebrews. It is faith through trust that governs the fruits and the gifts of God’s Holy Mighty Spirit through faith in God’s Living Word Christ Jesus the Lord.
HEB 11:6 But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
These are the fruit and gifs of God’s Spirit that should drive the whole purpose of the Godhead in the children of God and the church which is the body of Christ.
Because I have used the number twelve, I will use it as an example of the handy work of God as seen in his order and numbers. There are many numbers used by God and each one has a purpose and function in God’s work but I will stay with the number twelve as a reference to keep this understanding of numbers short.
We have looked at
A. Things being understood by what is created.
B. The invisible things of God.
C. Holding the truth in unrighteousness.
D. God’s eternal power and Godhead.
And now finally E. Man is without excuse.
Part E. All these things leave mankind without excuse.
The detail that follows are but small samples of the mighty hand print of God stamped through out creation.
In this section I will start with the number twelve as I promised to use it as an example.
Note: Number Twelve, This is another stamp of God’s hand print on creation, in scripture and denotes things that rule by using the number twelve, our divinely ordered government.
Just for the sake of understanding I will list twelve in all, although there are more.
1. The twelve gifts of the Spirit of God drive the controls of the work of Christ in God’s people or the Church. The gifts govern the peoples as a whole for edification and reproof.
2. The twelve fruits of the Spirit of God drive the controls of the work of Christ in the individual. These are all the things that govern the work of Christ in the plan of salvation through the Holy Spirit in each of God’s redeemed children of the promise.
3 There are twelve tribes of Israel, that show the different families and the governments of each tribe.
4. There are twelve sons of Israel that represent the twelve Patriarchs that Show the figure head of government for each tribe. All represent the family of Israel God had chosen to bring forth Christ the
Living Word that rules over the whole family of Israel and fulfill the promise to Abraham, Gen 17:4.
5. There were twelve princes that came from Ishmael. These were the forefathers of the Arabs.
6. The scriptures in the Old Testament times of Jesus broke the cycle of one day into two twelve hour periods of time. The day watch and the night watch. The day watch of the time of Jesus. 6:am to 6:pm, the night watch 6:pm to 6:am twelve hours in both to complete the 24 hour day.
7. We use watches today to mark our time into twelve hour increments to separate morning from evening.
8. Jesus was twelve years old when he made his first public appearance. This was done of God to show
Christ’s wisdom from God at twelve years old, the number of rule, of which he came to do, rule. ( MAT 12:42 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon [is] here. This symbolical choice of God, was amazingly revealing in that it showed Christ in the temple full of wisdom and revealing his destiny at twelve to rule over all Israel. (LUK 2:40-47 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him. Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the Passover. And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast. And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not [of it]. But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among [their] kinsfolk and acquaintance. And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him. And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions. And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.)
9. Jesus chose twelve disciples to become the governing figure heads of the New Testament Church and told the twelve that they had twelve throne from which to govern.
10. We have twelve months that govern our yearly cycles.
11. The sun which rules the day and moon and stars which govern the night. They do so by their passage through the twelve signs of the Zodiac which completes the great circle of heaven.
12. Men in their usages have chosen 12 inches on a ruler for the basic use of a measuring instrument and we’ve named it the ruler, men use twelve jurors in making decision of rule concerning our laws which we have taken from the old covenant. All thing were borrowed and taken from creation but have been order by God. This we must realize and understand about God in that he has ordered all things. I have pointed out twelve noticeable points of interest concerning the number twelve in creation. Do you think these all happened by coincidence or by divine order? If you see them for what they are, divine order, then you are without excuse. Do you know not that when the Master Builder of the universe came to dwell among men (Jesus) God’s only begotten that he would have a symbolic trade that of a carpenter or master builder. Mark 6:3…Is not this the carpenter (Jesus), son of Mary the brother of James and Joses and Judah and Simon? And are not his sisters here with him. In old testament time a carpenter was seen as a master builder.
JOH 1:1-3 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. Even the languages of the earth have been ordered by God. GEN 11:1-9 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar. And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top [may reach] unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech. So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter then abroad upon the Face of all the earth.
You ask why would God do this. So the time table of his plan and purpose would be maintained in that man would not advance until the latter days when he learned how to communicate one with the other, in that God can now bring all things of sin and rebellion to a end and close in the last days. I added this to let you the reader know that time is running out for you and your children, so if you love your children teach them of the Lords plan of salvation before it’s too late. You will be without excuse before God, that day!
The creation itself has too much order to be random acts of chance. The clear and amazing intelligence behind the order in creation is undeniable to say the least. So who or what is behind all this spectacular order that in some things such as DNA is so finely tuned we still cannot unlock its secrets. Is the creation playing peek a boo with us in it’s mysteries or are we just stubbornly and willfully stupid and ignoring God.
The universe has a order, your circulatory system has an order, life cycle has an order, growing patterns have an order, the oceans have an order, our seasons have an order. This list could go on for years if we took a closer look to scrutinize all the beautiful order found in creation. Chance is too random with too much chaos and confusion to find order of itself.
I will tell you this little story about created order that I have been telling to some since the late 60’s. You determine if you believe it or not. makes not difference to me I see God every where in creation and I am without excuse. After reading all of these writings that I have put forth so are you the reader.
Once upon a ? (no one knows time or what) there was this black void that had neither time nor material. All of a sudden as it seemed from out of no-where came this little round flat two inch disk and it sat There suspended in this void waiting. Again all of a sudden these little gears began to form from out of no where and set themselves in order and began to mesh together and they waited along side the disk in the black void. Again all of a sudden this two inch round and one sixtieth inch thick metal case came along and took its place beside the disk and gears. Then to my surprise these twelve little numbers in order from one to twelve came and attached themselves to the front of the disk. As I watched to my astonishment as these two little hands attached themselves in front of these twelve numbers on the face of the disk, wouldn’t you believe it a small circular glass face came along and decided to cover those two hands and twelve little numbers. Once all these players were together they decided they had a task to perform. So the gears began to mesh together and turn the little hands around these twelve numbers start the process of marking time. Now the void was no longer ?, empty, and timeless and all was happy ever after. (They found their place as a time piece, the watch.)
Do you believe that story to be true and how a watch was formed and came to be. If you do I feel Very ,very Sorry for you, because I made that story up 45 years ago.
So what is the point here?
I said I would tell you a story about created order and I did. The watch is a created thing that has a complex and amazing order that was created by intelligent design. The creator of this amazing keeper of time is man. You know and I know very well that a device so intricate, delicate and complex could never come together by random chance. There had to be some intelligent creator behind this miracle time machine that we use so extensively to govern our lives, industry, medicine, space, travel etc.
The creature and man are intricately created by design and creative order of choice by super intelligence, that also imparted to them life. But the amazing thing about the creatures of the earth is not only is intelligent design displayed in the order of their makeup like a watch but they have the life force of the creator in them to sustain them. This the watch lacks. The human brain in its thinking and reasoning abilities is so amazing that random chance could not have had a part in its design. This amazing intelligent and reasoning thing we call our brain in its creation and functions could only be credited by him who has made man in his (God) likeness.
I am not saying there was not a point in time when things got started for the universe as we know it. I do believe there was a appointed beginning for creation that man has called the Big Bang. I have already stated that I believe it to be the big bounce that brought the chaos in creation. I do believe however, that God spoke the universe into existence by his creative Living Word. ( Hebrews 4:12 states in the KJV that the word of God is quick and active, and powerful, However the Amplified, New American Standard and the New International all translate this verse to read alive and active.)
My point is that there is too much order in creation collectively to be a thing of random chance, or in the universe itself collectively to be so ordered and wonderfully and beautifully created. Was random chance or mother nature so caring and loving to put all things needed in order here on earth to sustain life and enjoy life by it own design or randomly ordered by random chances intelligence? The creation does not have the smarts, compassion, or love to do this on its own. The chaos and disorder that persist in creation and within mankind’s inner and outer being only does so by the spirit that brings chaos and that is Satan the prideful and rebellious spirit.
Take for instance your human body for an example the one thing in creation that has its own order that you are personally familiar with. Do you think that natural selection through a random act of creation was so kind as to allow you to enjoy taste, enjoy hearing the sound of a bird singing or music, enjoy the smell of flowers or the aroma of good food cooking, to enjoy the feelings of touch or love, or to see all the beauty in the universe? If so then the selection caused by random chance is pretty smart and thinks pretty coolly. These thing of randomness as some see it seen so ridiculous to me that they are foolishly funny.
How about the complexities and achievements of human thought and action. You know within yourself that the intelligence of the acts of mankind are not random acts but ordered designs by some very, very intelligent people.
If random chance in the selection of the universe is responsible it was very smart by thinking very hard to order such amazing things. This is not so, because all these things and more and the thing that we are not aware of or knowledgeable in yet are the work of this super intelligent invisible being and He is God the creator of all things.
Your body has more then sixty thousand miles of arteries, veins and capillaries in the adult body, that pulsate to a muscular rhythm at one hundred thousand heartbeats a day.
Are all these things sustained by the smarts and the compassion of random acts of chance in the universe, or by the divine intelligence of some unknown by us, force that we do not understand properly because of our foolish pride. We have trouble admitting that we are or were wrong because of our pride. ( See the book section on the fall of man.)
The glaring answer is by divine intelligence of an Eternal God who’s desire and will according to his infinite knowledge by his Word and enforced by the power of his Mighty Spirit, through the creative power responsible, the sustaining power accountable, and his merciful power of his love accredited to everything that we see, know and understand that exist in our universe.
Like the watch the human body mind and soul are very complicated and complex objects of creation. However, the watch pales in comparison to the complexity of the human design and life.
If you think and believe that a watch could ever assemble itself and come together by random chance, let alone have life, then how can you imagine the universe did so by coming together in order by chance. I believe without a doubt this leaves mankind without an excuse. If you cannot see God’s hand print of his presence in creation then you must be blind or in denial and or deceived or all three.
The creation story and the plan of salvation are other testimonies to God’s presence as I will show. Again we have no excuse.( See the fall of man in the section on pride to better understand this.)
The scriptures testify to the good and evil in man and also the cause of mans problems and the recovery. Again we are without excuse. Shall I go on? The first glimpse of a declaration of the intelligence man has also comes from the creation story and shows that no other creature can compare to man and mankind’s greatness by God’s creative intelligence through his awesome foreknowledge, that in its self was imparted to mankind from God. This is also a testimony to God’s presence by what is written concerning mankind.
There is no way that men separated by space and vast amounts of time, could have put a plan together with such great detail and metaphorical hidden meanings about creation, God, man and salvation to have a goal of deception as a end product. For the most part they did not meet or communicate with one another because of distance and time between their writings. These prophets only knew each other through history. There had to be an eternal intelligence to maintain the plan, add new details, secure old details, keep order and order of the time tables of these prophetic messages. I personally have seen some of the amazing hidden metaphors, shadows, graphic images , profound parables and revelations through the foreshadows of Christ God’s living Word. All testifies to the creator of the life and world we know. After understanding the things I have learned, I myself am without excuse. You the reader have to be your own judge, but I have given you plenty of food for thought.
I have hope for you parents and you the individual. Your spirit and the spirits of your children are the most important parts of you personal beings that should be protected, because it is what drives your desires.
Use what I have written to inspire your children in their capacities to learn. The children I tell these things to are delighted and encouraged by knowing about their spiritual inner man. We are so mindful of the outer things and appearances that we forget to tend to our inner emotions and spirits. We need to care for and maintain our children’s spiritual drives to ensure that their spiritual drive is motivated by a healthy soul and mind to overcome the sinful negative effects of the weak flesh.
Getting away from the creation aspects as related to the scripture I have written about and the detail in the book of Romans I must now get back to writing about children in general.
Fact is children are born a good free unburdened spirit without the knowledge of good and evil in their earthly bodies. They are basically created to be good and thrive with the desires to worship hardwired within their souls. They however, in their sinful flesh have the potential to do or be anything humanly possible good or evil through their acquired knowledge and experiences in life.
We must take into consideration the fact that evil and good are present within the carnal flesh. The good and evil can be displayed in every young child. These feature show themselves in the very young to the very old without exception. When a child is growing up he or she does not know or understand their potential to be controlled by good and evil until they reach the age of accountability. This seems to occur around the age of ten for the most part, give or take a couple of years depending on the child.
We must find ways to teach them as young as newborns how to protect and channel their inner emotions that will develop their spiritual dives. When they’re to young to understand on their own then you must be careful and vigilant in the way you touch them, tone and intent of your voice when around them, the way in which you interact with them and the surroundings that should be positive in all your guiding and teaching factors. This way you will insure that the stages of development in good and evil within will be separated properly within their inner beings. They do not know or understand the war of separation between soul ,mind and spirit against the body, carnal desires and fleshy emotions that rage on the inside of our duel natures. The brain’s mind and the emotions of your child will always be the loosing and destroyed battle field in this war and the scares and damage will show itself outwardly in the flesh. If you do not take precautionary measures early in your child’s life the damage may be hard to undo when they become set in their accountable year. Only Christ in his work of reconciliation back to the Father can undo this damage caused by our lack of training and the deceit of the flesh and Satan.
We learn as we grow older and things in life and experiences we have affect the way we develop. These experiences good or evil teach us how to react and when to reach to different situations in life. The good and evil that is inborn within our fleshy nature directs the way in which we learn and make our choices in life. Our prideful and shameful hearts that are hardwired in the carnal nature of the flesh are passed on to our descendants without choice. This Satan knows and uses against us to transgress God, self and others by destroying our emotional and spiritual drives within. We come to the place of shame and blame and we do not properly understand the negative affects of these two twins. The shame of the heart will destroy our
inner beings and the pride of the heart will try to hide the guilt and condemnation within that shame brings on. Its shame blame, pride hide. In this we tend to hide our transgressions from self and think that we are okay, but lurking deep down within is a boiling pressure cooker of shame waiting to release. Most adults do not fully understand this, young children certainly do not understand. This takes place and starts in our desires in the things we learn from childhood and the training given us from our caregivers and surroundings. Parents today mostly ignore these fact because they do not know or understand or are in denial about this.
A child that has no training and direction can go towards evil simply because they do not know the harm of their evil nature or have not been guided or instructed properly to distinguish between right and or wrong. In situations like the one I mentioned earlier about the Superior Court of Ontario Canada ruling to restore a young boy back to the mother with full custody, because the father was systematically brain washing the boy to hate the mother. In this situation one parent was feeding the inner emotions of the child and corrupting the child. Shame on that father. It is things like this that pollute the soul and mind of our children, causing the children’s spirits to drive these hateful emotions through the words of a evil parent to cause the child’s sinful fleshy body to respond to evil. The child does not understand properly, faith and trust that the child should get from their parents. Actions such as these only confuse a child about truth of self and trust of parents. Parents use their children as ponds to gain more access to their own evil desires.
This is a cause and reason that when a child does things that to an adult seem wrong or really misdirected and negative in nature we cannot seem to understand why. We began to ask ourselves what is or was this child thinking. We also have to consider that a child will use any situation negative or positive to their advantage simply because the flesh wants to have it’s pride or shameful desires fulfilled. This the child does not realize or understand.
It is also that when babies that do not know right from wrong experience fits of rage do so simply because they have evil and fleshy impulses that need to be channeled properly. The evil twins of shame and pride can affect your child at very young ages. When the flesh cannot have its’ desires to vent fulfilled, it has lost control of the carnal desires it resorts anger to rage to negative and or destructive action by the flesh. We need to understand the sinful flesh and it’s self destructive desires.
This again is the generational curse to three and four generations. This anger in a child is mostly the reaction to the weak will of the flesh that is apparent in all mankind. This anger is caused by the frustration that is always rearing up its head in the sinful flesh, brought on by the pride and or shame of the heart.
I will give again these verses of scripture in Romans NIV Translation so we can understand our dilemma.
Romans 8:19,20. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by it’s own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from it’s bondage to decay, and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. (Your frustrations are not of choice but divinely ordered of God so that you can stop and look at self to see the sinful shame and pride that separates you from God. In this
our self choice to be corrected can be enacted by God himself through Christ so as all the glory goes back to God. Our weak wills and weaknesses of the flesh through rampant lustful desires, do not have the strength to overcome the strength of the curse that destroys us because of our transgression. We need the Savoir to save us from self destruction. Help your children to fully understand this problem in the carnal earthy flesh.)
Mankind was created originally perfect, but was incomplete at this point, for he was incomplete without full obedience of mind, soul and heart, unto God’s Holy Word , although and eternal life was within their grasp, as stated in Gen 2:16 by God’s permission to eat freely from any tree, except the tree of good and evil. The transgression cut short the completion of that process, by virtue disobedience, unto God’s command in Gen 2:17. This disobedience, caused the separation of spirit, between man’s spirit and God’s eternal Spirit, bringing therefore, spiritual death unto mankind, where Spirit and Life is only contained within obedience unto God’s Holy Word spoken of Christ in John 6:63.
This willful act of Adam and Eve, brought about the weakness of the will, in the failure of man to overcome lustful and rampant desires, and allowed the imperfections that causes frustration of the emotions of man, that destroys the will. The perfection that Adam and Eve had before the transgression, was lost to the curse, and the perfection in them, has now become corrupted by excessive pride and shame, that causes the frustration of the emotions and weakens the will of mankind and brings about spiritual death. This causes anger at self or others, because of failure through the strength of frustrations emotions, has now become a response based from out of excessive shame and pride after the garden fall.
When we cannot have our way the control of pride within causes the frustration that brings anger and sometimes rage.. When we cannot control our lives and things around us we become affected in our thinking that causes mental lows that become frustration and or anger in and with ourselves and or others. Sometimes our anger is just, but most of the time our anger is unjust and misplaced.
The anger that comes from the frustrations of pride or shame can be displayed in the very youngest to the very oldest without exception and is an automatic response of the flesh because of sin. The flesh has Lost that once perfect body. Now the frustration and anger of the flesh through sin and consequences of the curse and corruption by transgressing makes frustration an automatic response of a weakness in mankind.
Think of your children!!!! Even though a child does not know or understand why they are angry, nonetheless they still have the same war raging inside of them as an adult. This struggle we are in between the dangers of pride and shame and their fuel frustration , good and evil within and Satan should not be left up to chance or to a young child to sort out and or ignored in them by parents.
Seventy five percent of a child’s thinking will go to play, fun and games. A child is not concerned with what they are made of inside their inner beings, This is left up to the parents to form by proper teaching and training.. They do not think as adults nor should they be cumbered with things about matters of finances or society ,or world affairs etc. These first ten years of their lives are for development of character of soul, mind and positive spiritual drive within. These young years are supposed to allow the child to play and have fun so that no stress is placed upon them in order to allow them to grow up quiet in their inner beings. This is done so they may turn into mild and easy going individuals. This God has allowed in the first ten years of a child’s life so they can develop properly in character. God wants the spirits of all men to be tamed by the order he has placed in our developing process. A person with a tame spirit is a very valuable gift to the world.(We have corrupted this process of God in our foolish pride and wills to rebel against God.)
Children have very active imaginations and can get confused and misdirected messages in their sinful emotions. This they do not understand because they have not reached that matured age of accountability, but are in the stages of innocence in their minds. I will give a scripture verse to support this point.
Genesis 8:21 And the Lord smelled a sweet savour and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground for mans sake: For the imaginations of man’s heart is evil from his youth: neither will I again smite anymore everything living, as I have done. This verse demonstrate right from the mouth of God, man’s evil nature and sinfulness right from youth. An evil imagination can be a major factor in the development of a child’s life.
This is another reason that there should be more attention given to our very young children in teaching and learning practices by parents and or guardians to develop a proper spiritual drive in them.
In 2Cor chapter 10 verses 4 and 5, we can see why according to the scripture that a uncontrolled, unrestrained imagination can cause a child trouble in their growing process and why we need Christ and the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us.
2CO 10:4 ,5 (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; This was stated in Genesis 6:5, And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth and that every imagination of thought of his heart was evil continually. We need a savior to redeem us from ourselves and Satan’s deceptions.
These are good passages of scripture that explain and identifies the dangers of uncontrollable evil and sinful imaginations. The fact is all children have imaginations with some moderately active and others excessively active. Some with good and righteous intentions and other with evil and destructive intentions. We are and should be the guardians of our children, we must do everything possible to ensure their proper growth and success of their spiritual drive is righteous and healthy.
The question is: How can an uncontrolled unguided active imagination that causes problems for children in the developmental stage of their life be controlled or repaired?
Answer: If you read the section of this book that deals with shame and pride I think the answers are very clear along with what is written in this book section. We are without excuse and we must do more then we are doing now to safeguard our children. We are all born with shame and pride that can be and is very dangerous and destructive in the carnal nature. It is pride that gives us thoughts of grandeur and makes us think that we are better than others. We think we are smarter than others, we think we are stronger then others, we think we have a better standing with God over others, we think that we are physically superior to others or mentally superior to others, we think we are greater than other, and this prideful list goes on and on . It’s because of pride that the people of this world are so divided, and pride is the main cause for most of the destruction of this world and it’s people. (It was the pride in Satan that causes the first division.)
Hitler was a true prime example of the dangers of excessive pride and the destruction it can cause. Charles Mason is another and the list goes on right back to the beginning when prideful Cain slew Able his brother.
These men and others had thoughts of grandeur that led them to do the things they did. They in turn lead others to kill and destroy as they did. If someone would have properly guided their childhood their emotional and imaginational levels would have taken a different course.
We are not better one from another in any way. We are all fallible, weak failures in God’s eyes with the same hang-ups destined to the corruption of sin and shame. There is no exception and no difference, we all meet the same end. We all have to meet death and finally God’s judgment after death. Think Deeply!
When children are born they have the same destructive forces of shame and pride but not developed, that have caused so many people to do so many destructive things to self, others and property. A child whose shame and pride levels that have not been directed properly use these unfettered evil imaginations and desires to the destructive disadvantage of the fleshy carnal weaknesses unknowingly, and this takes them to places they were not created to be or go into, in outward and inward negative destructive areas of their life. The war that rages inside of man between good and evil against the soul’s mind and sinful flesh are in fact fueled by frustration through shame and pride in excess that is in man. This pride and shame fuels the evil in man and causes him to be deceived into thinking he is something when in reality he is not.
These are some of the very important reasons children need guidance and positive good healthy direction , to stimulate their good nature and spirit to overcome the evil that is within the flesh fueled by shame and pride. The child does not understand this or know and or realize the war that is going on inside of them. They get confused simply because they have no understanding of how they are made and the damage the sinful unrestrained flesh can cause. It is a sad affair to see a depressed child, this should not be so.
This war is part of the cause that fills a man with anxiety and the conflicts inside that brings on frustration to anger to rage through disobedient shame or pride within. Our shame and pride levels of control go out of control and intensify when we cannot have our way. This is the cause that brings out all these negative destructive emotions of failure through frustration that destroy our inner feelings causing depressive or over anxious emotions. These can all lead to inner pressures that cause suppression of your soul and mind of your created inner being. These conditions can cause one to go downward negatively in a spiral in the spirit, soul and mind. This is where and when the weak minded and spiritually weak that have not had proper training turn to abusive substances or become self destructive or suicidal in their mental and emotionally weak flesh. They are trying to hide or bury their emotional pain through false countermeasures that the flesh uses to find relief. These are not things that any loving and caring parent wants for their children. It is certainly something society as a whole does not desire. (The hood today can be one dangerous place.)
What do you think a child is going through at the very youngest tender years from birth until about the age of accountability around ten years old? What do you think they are feeling when the parents are having a heated argument that last for hours or days, and the negative noise levels in the home are constant and elevated? What do you think they are feeling emotionally or the pressure placed on their peacefully created spirits are going through that are being tormented by your action?
If you do not want your child to end up in any of these conditions, take steps when they are very young to secure and insure that their natural created growing process is uninterrupted and unimpeded by the shame and pride through sin in the flesh. Ensure they remain healthy in their precious spiritual drive. (Teach them to be humble and submissive to authority. This is God‘s desire for them.) They are too young to understand and figure these thing out on their own, they need your help. Once the child’s character is set and hardened by life it takes more work to undo the damage and this can be very slow and painful in the latter years.
We all know how much sleep is required by children especially those that are new born. Can you imagine the child’s feelings and thoughts that are not developed yet racing back and forth because they do not understand the war the parents are having with each other over selfish agendas. Or other stupid commotions that persist in some homes. Try to imagine what your child is going through trying to sleep and rest. Since the child has not fully experienced all the potentials of their emotions, or understand completely what each emotion is for, or the war in the home which they cannot comprehend, or what is going on around them with mom and dad and the negative activities, they become confused and emotionally damaged.
Because of the commotion around them their sleep is constantly broken and they cannot develop proper sleeping patterns that their soul, mind, body and spirit require to have a healthy sound sleep to keep the soul at peace. When this happens the child becomes first restless, then moody, then mixed up and confused in their emotions because they do not understand their frustrations properly. This frustration and sleeplessness can turn into anger and fits of rage in the child in that they do not understand why or what they are feeling. Since the child cannot comprehend why the parents are fighting or why there is so much commotion and noise around them they become stressed and agitated or miserable and or angry. The younger they are the more likely they are to cry. These conditions lead to depressed and troubled children that seem to cry often for no reason or seem to not have the skills to develop properly emotionally.
Children do not understand the way an adult can, the child has no experiences in life and understanding that comes with experiences about peoples indifferences, so trying to sorting out their emotions properly at very young ages may come to them in mixed up and in confusing manners. Children do not know how, when or why they should shut down unnecessary negative or explosive emotions. This takes time in learning through life and proper teaching from others, in how to address certain emotional situations.
What happens is, their emotions are running too much and or get misdirected and the child ends up emotionally crippled. What happens to the child is what happens to all when we are prevented from getting our proper sleep and rest or spiritual nourishment. We become miserable and angry because of sleep deprivation and confused in life, because our spirits were damaged by negative events that happened to us.
Adults knows how to avoid or avert these problems, young children do not.
The spiritual drive is like a battery that has no charge when newly made. The battery receives a charge and it’s electrical potential enables it to perform the function of energizing and moving a particular driver. If it should weaken then it needs a recharge. A newborn’s spirit and drive are similar. Their spiritual charge of life is already in force however, the spiritual charge that directs or energizes them to move them in certain and different directions in life comes through experiences. If they have been taught to be charged in a negative manner then their spiritual drive will be negatively charged. The negative force that drives them to do the things they do will cause them to be negative. After all this they will come to the place Paul the Apostle spoke of in the book of Romans 7. The things that they want to do they will not do and the things they do not want to do they will. If their spiritual charge is positive they will do and act according to that good positive spiritual charge or drive. The more you change their spiritual drive with things in life on the positive or negative side the stronger their spiritual drive battery will be until it is fully charged in the direction it is pushed.
Children start out with a positive charged spirit from birth because this is the initial form they have before life experiences have corrupted their spirits. Their spirits are at peace and quiet and ready to be moved to be molded into the character they will develop into. When you allow a negative experiences to happen to them it allows the negative charge to enter them and the results are mixed message and confusions.
By this they lose the peace of their spirits and the quiet becomes chaos of spirit and of their created being. The results can be explosive to their entire makeup. This is one of the causes children develop into very low levels of shame in excess that brings the depression that destroys the emotions of the carnal mind, this can lead to destruction of self within others, or suicide, with frustration in self at the controls. With the other twin side of a negative spiritual drive it is pride in excess that can destroy the peace and quiet of spirit. This brings the negative highs of pride that also destroy the character of the emotions of the carnal mind. This will spiritually drive an individual to jealousy, envy, bigotry, hate, excessive desire to have that which belongs to others, bulling of others, elevation of self above others, demeaning of others, desire to quarrel with others, self righteousness etc. This is what your child is facing in life as they began to grow and develop their emotions. They need some serious help to develop properly, are you willing to help them?
The inspiration you give your child or teen to succeed must be greater and better than the things that will so early in their life distract them from success, which will cause failure and cause them to use such things as drugs, sex, pressures from peer through crime, and bulling of others etc.
Do this experiment and take a wire and try to connect the positive post and the negative post of a battery. What you get is a small electrical resistance between the + and the – sides of your battery. The results are a small electrical explosion, this is a small form of chaos, (chaos meaning. Confusion, or confused mass, of formless matter and infinite space, without due form or order; confusion as, chaos of materials.) What do you think is happening inside of your child that was born positively good and peaceful and at rest at their birth and then negative pressures are added to that makeup. Explosion of mind, spiritual disorders that causes cracks in their makeup that break down their created order, “Chaos of self and mind”.
There are many adults in this day and age that have been damaged by childhood experiences that go about life with some real negative hang-ups and do not realize this, ignore this, deny or blame others and or just do not care. They are usually very emotional and or explosive people, that cannot be reasoned with, take instructions or except help from others. (Some are very troublesome know it all and or busy bodies.)
Getting back to the child not getting proper sleep. The difference between someone that comprehends and understands their emotions and or situations in life, is, they can ask the noise maker or arguing party to quiet down, move to a quiet place where they can get proper sleep or get out of that situation and regain their spiritual composer. We that comprehend and understand can do what ever it takes to make a change necessary to get our proper sleep and peace of mind.
The unfortunate thing about being a child is a child cannot control their parents or environment but are subject to what ever a parent can dish out, from sleepless conditions at home to abuse. The child cannot control any condition around them so their only option is sleeplessness, restlessness to frustration to anger to misdirected or agitated emotional rage, crying and tantrums. Their only tools unfortunately is to fight back emotionally. All because they do not or did not completely understand their situations at home where peace and safety should prevail for them.
Some of the parents responses when baby cries is to run and stick a bottle or soother in baby’s mouth because they do not want to hear the cries or do not understand why baby is crying. Other parents just walk away and allow the baby to cry thinking the child will cry it out. The child is crying because of emotional distress and agitation caused by frustration. The parents next move is to go right back to their arguments or allow loud noise levels to continue. When these conditions persist over extended periods of time the children of these parents become more aggressive in their emotional levels of frustration which increases the uncontrollable anger responses these children exhibit. Their mental conditions become more unstable. ( Keep it up parents you are developing a monster to offer to society.)
This is where some parents began to think that the child has some emotional problem and issues. The parents do not realize or cannot figure out and understand that the conditions created in the environment around the child are part of the cause of the child’s misdirected anger and over active emotional troubles.
So what happens to the child as it grows older?
Children acquire misdirected emotional problems and then are labeled with such problems as hypertension, severe depressive problems or severe mood swing etc.
A pill will certainly not correct these problems but only mask or suppress them and could create additional problems, causing even greater troubles for the child. These problems are carried into the adult stages of life and the weakness they cause can also be carried down to the third and fourth generations. This is where you can find such illnesses in families with generational depressions, families with suicidal tendencies etc.
When a child or an adult fails or makes a mistake and feels the guilt of that failure or mistake you must rebuild their self confidence. You must try to restore and encourage them to hold on to their inner confidence. Do not let the pressures of excessive shame over power their emotions and cause a emotional dip in their confidence, this can bring them to dangerous low levels of the frustration of shame of failure. These lows of shame can bring on feelings that can damage their life emotionally.
Encouragement should always be immediate after a failure to maintain and ensure self confidence. The anger of self associated with failure can be directed at self inwardly in shame or directed outwardly through shame’s cover excessive pride in negative ways. The anger is rooted in the subconscious through shame which is associated with the guilt of trespass against God’s Spirit. (See causes of anger in section on, Eye opening Look At Pride, Shame and humbleness.)
When teens exhibit signs of aggression in the area of control (over others) it is due to three things happening on the inside of their person. There are three stages of development a parent should be aware of.
1. They are going through a stage of change in their bodies that can be confusing and difficult for them. They are not sure of where or how to vent this inner drive from child to young adult. They are experiencing
that break in their emotions from childhood where they were at one time submissive to parents, into adults where they are experiencing their own new free wills and desire apart from their parents guiding them. They do not know if not taught how to channel all these mixed emotions that teenagers experience. Because the flesh is naturally disobedient and rebellious these are responses in these two areas. A. They become engaged in a war inside between wanting to obey their parents to resisting their parents. B. Because resisting is a flaw in the human nature their tendencies will excel in this area by the uncertainty they are feeling. They will began to think their parents are picking on them but it is a battle of wills between the new young adult and their parent.
The parent is used to giving orders and does not take into consideration the changes going on inside of their teen when the teen resist them. The more the teen resist the more the parent resist and then the war between teen and parent begins. Most of this is a misunderstanding between teen and parent because neither of them understand the problem of the teen cycle. The parent must realize they are loosing their child and gaining a young adult. The teen must understand that the parents are trying to be parents that still love and care, and feel the same care for them as they did before this teen transition, but at this point do know better then the teen by life experiences. The teen needs to think not that the parents are picking on them but needs to understand that they are going through a life changing teen cycle, and their parent are still caring for them to the best of their abilities. So teen and parent should try to come together and learn how to harmonize with each other through this difficult time. Understanding with reason through harmonization can move mountains.
2. Teens have two hidden forces within that are not understood by them and sometimes not by the parents. When the child or teen is young thy are created normally to be submissive to parents, and all their thoughts are on fun, play and laughter under normal conditions in the very young years. But however, as they enter that troublesome teen cycle (adolescence) then changes for the worse and a unwanted unprepared for, war starts to take shape inside their inner beings between teen and parent that transpires into resistance. Both teen and parent truly love one another but an unforeseen force has been added to the relationship, it is the teen cycle of the misunderstood transition, that can destroy teen and then the relationship of love that should prevail between parent and the teen.
Let someone come up against teen or parent and the war shifts from teen and parent to the opposition that came against the teen or parent. This is because the love is still there but hidden by the troubles between teen and parent. (The teens transition cycle of child to adult can be very stressful for teens and parents if not understood properly and dealt with)
Then was child created normally to be submissive to the parents, this is a God’s ordered process that has a cycle of change that occurs within a teen. When they are young, all their thoughts are on fun, play and laughter under normal conditions. When they pass that age of accountability that is around ten year old the change that will inevitably come will start that slow process of change within them and the resistance starts within the teen against the parent, not because the parent is against the teen but because the teen is changing into an adult with their own thinking process. When they hit that age of puberty all things began to change in them.
There are the two hidden forces lurking within your teen that begins to rears their heads in the teen years even though these forces were in your child prior to this change your teen is going through. These forces have been for the most part restrained by the child like mind of thinking and actions, but can show themselves on a small scale in young children also. These two forces that begin to control your child are God given laws to (1) dominate and (2) subdue, and are hardwired into their beings Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. These two forces of dominate and subdue are now super imposed and driven by the teen cycle in this difficult transition period that your teen is experiencing. These forces of dominating and subduing are now driven by excessive shame and excessive pride in your teen and the results now is your teen wants to dominate and subdue their own destiny, so they resist the parents not knowing this is happening within their newly found adult life. (See the section I have written on Teens)
3. War in within the sinful flesh. This war in the flesh your child may not understand. This war in the flesh is engaged between the flesh’s sinful and disobedient nature and the soul and spirits that was once peaceful and good. In the young and teen there is also imagination thrown into this mix.
You need to address what triggers the emotional misdirection and tackle the issue from inside the soul and spirit not with pills or chemicals. This is done with love, extreme patience, positive emotional and spiritual support and guidance in wisdom and compassion that breaks the negative effects of the sinful flesh. A child or teen has enough to deal with in their own natural chemicals of their body in this change without causing more problems by adding other substances to their bodies.
Other problems that cause unstable conditions in children that affect the natural created order of growth in the children’s soul and minds are caused by the parents negative actions. We must keep in mind that man was perfect when God created him, however, the transgression that brought the curse has changed that perfection in mans created order dramatically. The chaos in man’s being was and is because of transgression against God’s sovereign authority. Do not change God’s created laws in your children.
When you have a male child, treat him as a male and do not send him confusing and mixed messages. Do not treat him or talk to him in a female manner or treat him femininely in any way. The same rule applies for your female child, treat her as she was created, do nor change this order for any reason.
When your child is to young to understand right from wrong, left from right, tie their shoes and does not truly understand the difference between genders or sexual orientation, does not understand emotional levels or different emotions properly; how do you think their going to understand what they going through if they have not been guided properly. Mixed messages will only confuse them about themselves.
You must teach them things that pertain to their gender, their spiritual growth, their mental growth, interaction with other and what a beautiful creation they are. All through positive healthy and righteous nurturing.
Calling them names, abusive language directed at them, talking down at them, excessive force with discipline, calling them stupid or telling them they cannot do anything right, all have a negative reversing affect on anything positive within them. Anything that is destructive to their character while they are forming their character will change their emotional, psychological, mental and spiritual growth process.
If you practice any of these or other negative damaging acts stop, before you damage and destroy your child beyond repair. If you do not stop you will wonder why later in your child’s life how they became so messed up emotionally. Do not be fooled you will answer to God for the damage you have caused to you child. Do not use them as pawns in your indifferences with your spouse or mate. Do not talk negative about the other parent to them. This will certainly confuse their emotions and feelings about their other parent. This confusion will continue throughout their lives and cause damage in their relationships.
We have to remember the spiritual war we are in that affects all mankind from the very least unto the very great, from the very small to the very large, from the very young to the very old, there is no exception to this war inside of man. We all have this battle between good and evil raging inside of us. Our spirit and God’s Spirit are at odds with each other due to the transgressing nature of the flesh.
It certainly does not matter if you realize this fact, believe this information or ignore this information, the war inside of you will still continue to rage on. This war and the fact that we are not perfect in our sinful flesh causes us to carry unexpected and sometimes unknown burst of anger that seem to come from out of no where. This is why if you train your children very early they can avoid and conquer the weakness of their sinful nature before they become to corrupted. This anger is caused by the conflicts inside and is fueled by frustration of the flesh. These are the fleshes brains triggers.
Some of us get older and this frustration and the outburst of anger seem to become stronger in intensity. These burst become more frequent and unexpected as time goes on and the things that bring them on do not have to be traumatic to trigger these outburst. Some people seem to turn in to angry individuals in life and any small matter can cause them to explode.
As life continues for us the stressful situations in life begin to take their toil on our emotions little by little and we find it easier to get angry or snap at someone. We feel more pressure inside and our anxiety levels peek and are taxed by life. Our emotional triggers become more sensitive.
Positive and negative signals in the brain.
Our brains have a series of chemical reactions and electrical impulse that become the signals for our thoughts and responses. Each persons reaction strengths and resistance strengths are different. With someone who is weak in their spirit and soul these responses of strength and resistance due to the brains chemical makeup are other factors that makeup who you are.
Science can now see the difference in the brain of criminally negative people as opposed to someone that is positive and constructive. Even the weak minded can be built up to be strong again. There is no limit to the positive measures you can take to build up your spiritual strength through desire.
A child’s brain at birth has not been directed in the strength of the chemical and electrical makeup. A babies brain has not had practical use of these two functions. This is why it is important to mold And develop a child early in life soon after birth. The reactions and the strength of these two brain functions will increase and grow into negative and positive strengths.
Our thoughts in our physical makeup of our brains are all chemical and electrical actions that move our lust and carnal desires. Our soul and the mind of the spirit are spiritual actions that move the character of who you are. We must learn how to sort this duel makeup out. Science now sees that there is a difference between brain and mind. This was revealed to me thirty years ago by the Lord.
Note: The scriptures use the number 10 to symbolize things that are complete or whole. This is why I think that the magic number for children to reach the age of accountability seems to be around ten years old.
I believe this to be another fact of God’s created order and his hand print of design. It shows that at this tender age of ten a child’s character is for the most part complete. I will again give a few references on things that are complete or whole in the perfection of divine order. (Again we are without excuse.)
1. Our number system is functional in that 10 is the number that is the completion of the sum. All other numbers beyond ten are the product of the whole of ten.
2. A person who is complete has ten toes and ten fingers thus completing, where that person sets out to go and do and what they puts his hands to do.
3. God gave the children of Israel ten commandments to complete the basic law of Moses for the individual to God and for the individual to man thus completing the personal laws of respect.
4. The first decade is the representative of the whole number system. It originates the system of calculation called decimals, because the whole system of numbers do consist of all tens with ten being the first type of the whole. This shows the completeness of God’s divine order, thus making the entire round of this system the round of anything. Therefore the sign of God’s hand print is ever present being significant in the completion of the number ten. It implies that there is no want of another in that the number ten and it’s order is complete. The completion of the strength of this system is whole and complete in ten.
5. The children of Israel were required by law to pay ten percent for a tithe unto the priesthood.
6. The world powers of the antichrist is symbolic using the number ten….ten toes, ten horns as referred to in the book of Daniel and revelations.
7. The ten rebellions of Israel, Numbers 14:22… “Because all those men which have seen My glory, and miracles, which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness and have tempted me now these ten times and have not harkened to my voice.
8. Fire from heaven came down ten times, six being judgments 1. Genesis 19:28, 2. Leviticus 9:24, 3. Leviticus 10:2-4, 4. Numbers 11:1,
5. Numbers 16:35, 6. 1 Kings 18:38. 7. 2 Kings 1:10, 8. 2 Kings 1:12,
9. 1 Chronicles 21:26, 10. 2 Chronicles 7:1.
9. The parables concerning the kingdom are ten in number, Gospel of Matthew Chapter 13. 7, Chapters 22. 3 and chapter 25. 1.
10. God’s judgment of Egypt was complete in ten plagues against Pharaoh.
11. Ten virgins in the bible which represent Israel and the direction they took.
12. Jesus stated in his words, I Am, ten times in the book of John.
(1) I am the bread of life.
(2) I am the bread of life which came down from heaven.
(3) I am the living bread.
(4) I am one that bears witness of myself.
(5) I am the light of the world.
(6) I am the door of the sheep.
(7) I am the good shepherd.
(8) I am the way, the truth, and the light.
(9) I am the resurrection and the life.
(10) I am the true vine.
Is this chance, coincidence, or divinely ordered metaphors by God to reveal himself to man. Rom 1:20.
I have not mentioned the way the number ten is used in the tabernacle, or the construction or the other things in creation that have a distinct order using ten. For example, it takes approximately ten days for flesh that has been stitched to close a wound and another ten days for healing to be complete and safe.
I think the point has been made about God’s divinely created order using ten to show the hand print of his presence in creation.
Back to the children, it is important to set these electrical triggers in our brains to bring about a positive soul and mind and healthy spirit for our children to start them in a proper growing cycle. By this the children will learn and know of God and his powerful Spirit early so when they come to the age of accountability they may choose life and not death through Christ.
The bible says in scripture to train a child in the way they should go and when they gets older they will not depart from the way. This scripture verse makes a lot of sense in relationship to what I have written in this section on children concerning the age of ten.
(I was ten years old when my mother passed away and by that time my character and destiny was already formed and set. The direction and course in my life was set by her righteous judgments for me and she
knew this and took that thought with her to her grave.)
The positive or negative environment a child grows up in does and will affect the way they are developing. This environment will direct them to be positive or negative, a success or failure or simply in a confused or depressed state all their life. These are some of the reasons that you can find young children in other parts of the world that become masters of their cause. They are taught to live and breathe the ideologies of their teachers right up until they become a suicide bomber. They were trained to be hostile and negative in hate for those whom oppose their way of thinking. The unfortunate thing about this is these children do not know about, or have seen or understand those whom they are hating to death. These children have been totally confused by the blindness of foolish men’s control of pride to take their unrighteous causes to death, of which they truly do not understand. These facts are evident by the confusion in different cultures of the world and the evil selfish desires they teach their children. This shows also how easily it is to lead and or mislead children. Children can be taken down an evil and negative direction of destruction or down positive healthy directions to a good life.
Many different things in life will affect your child’s natural process when they are young. They can sense when something is wrong in their emotions even though they have not had experiences of life to sort out their emotions properly. They also have some sense that are automatic, in that they do not need the understanding of training like in natural fear which is a survival response of the flesh to preserve it’s life, that is automatic. Because the child is young there are certain experiences in their emotions they do not understand. This will cause them to shift back and forth in their emotions thus confusing them even more and misdirecting their spiritual drive. This may be seen in a young child that experiences fear when not necessary or fear in a more threatening situation. Some parents try to quiet the child’s spirit down instead of finding out precisely why the child is feeling fear.
So parents do not be surprised when your child whom is less than two years old shows extreme emotions in anger, tantrums, or seems to be agitated or in a rage for no apparent reason. The child has learned these mixed up emotions from your activities or the surroundings you allowed them to be exposed to. You must ensure for proper growing patterns and environments for you children. You are responsible for them according to God’s created design!!!!!
A young child should and cannot be left on their own to navigate and or make emotional decisions on their own, their inherited evil imaginations (Genesis 8:21) will hinder or damage their spiritual drives and mental grow process. (Parents today spend more time caring about the flesh then they do about the child’s spirit.)
When a child is in their mother’s womb it feels and experiences some of the mothers experiences by her surroundings and her emotions. If the mother is in a stressful situation or an abusive relationship the child inside of her depending on how far it is developed, can sense and feel her emotional highs and lows and the negative surroundings about the mother. We tend to forget that there is a little developing life inside the woman and this is because we do see the child and forget it is in the woman. Again this affects the child before and after birth and sends confusing and mixed signals to the emotions inside the child. The child does not know or understand what is going on outside the mother. The lack of experience to sort out it’s emotions in the mothers surroundings can also damage the child’s spirit before birth.
Examples: Have you ever been in a situation where a child is a very small infant and you seen that child display it’s automatic fears because of something that happen in the infants presence. This situation could
have been caused by a barking dog, a stuffed toy, or even a strange face. You may have been playing with one of the other children and something during that play time startle the infant. There are many examples. You may have noticed the infants lips quiver because the infant did not understand that there was no threat. There are many example of why we should protect the infants emotions and properly direct them. They Are naturally created at the start with quiet spirits unless there is a medical situation that is troubling them. Stress in children is damaging to their little beings and is confusing and dangerous to them. Infants and young children respond with misdirected emotions simply because they do not understand. Parents should understand that the child’s very young age is a serious disadvantage to them when it comes to their emotions. Parents need to direct the child’s emotions properly to develop and bring out the beautiful characters that can be in every child. There is in every child the potential for good because of the image and likeness of God in them. This state is in it’s purest form before contamination of transgression.
Try to prevent things that would raise their anxiety levels. Allow them to grow, be healthy, play and have fun as children should do. You be the parent that is a guardian sentinel watching and directing your child so they can reach their full potential. It’s okay to train them in other areas of life that will be career oriented. But if you do not ensure that their soul ,mind and spirits are protected the information they take in will affect their whole create being, and all the training you invested in them will be lost some where down the road by the pitfalls of life through excessive pride and shame. They will certainly fail in their life.
Guide and instruct them with soft loving touches with gentleness, soft spoken words through wisdom and understanding, and a sense of comfort and reassurance in all you do when interacting with them by being positive and encouraging to them. In this you will give your child the benefits and tools needed to overcome the sin and rebellion within.
Love is the most powerful force on this planet as far as an individual person is concerned. When love is applied properly for the right reasons it can cause individuals to do amazing and wonderful things. On the
opposite side of the coin of life misdirected and evil emotions in hate can be the most destructive forces in a person. If you allow you child to be brought up in a evil and hateful atmosphere or a hateful home they will get wrong signals to their emotions. Every person is born a free spirit that can choose right from wrong. We must try to recapture the beauty that is in every human starting with our children who are the hope of man’s future. Pregnant mothers should always be aware of and careful for the life they
carry inside of them and after the birth of the child. There should be special care and precautions to ensure the babies proper development is not impeded during or after birth right up until ten years of age especially. Children will always need their parents but the first ten years are the most critical for character development and inner spiritual motivations that will move them positively. Baby is fresh and is totally subject to mothers support, care and protection of babies entire being.
If you teach your child to be mean spirited and aggressive then you are again sending the child unnatural mixed messages that are in conflict with the child’s natural good nature. The child will grow to be mean and aggressive emotionally, mixed up and will not understand in their latter years why they are this way. When a child grows in an environment that has the presence of anger, hate, prejudice, depression, negativity and violence through excessive pride and or shame or any other negative thing , these all work against the God like nature inside that will cause suppression of the soul that pollutes the spiritual drive. These things coupled with the God ordered laws in man to dominate and subdue that are misdirected by the deceitfulness of the control of pride within causes internal conflicts in the soul. These conflicts bring on stress to suppression to depression with anger in self and at self that destroys the inner man.
The two natures of man’s being of good soul’s mind and spirit ( Spirit driver of soul.), against the fleshes brains carnal mind’s desires and fleshes lust ( Lust driver of flesh.) in your new born have not had a chance to come to battle yet. So your child, for the most part does not experience all these negative emotions and battles that a seasoned experience adult life would have. These things are experienced and understood by practice.
Examples of the battle lines drawn in brief.
Soul: Your soul is the knowing part of your inner living being that forms your character, ( This is recorded in Genesis 2:7 “They became a living soul or knowing being) Your soul battles against disobedience of the flesh. Genesis 3:6, !John 2:16.
Mind: Your inner mind is the processor of the desires of your soul (good in your soul)…Your soul’s mind battles against the outer fleshes brain’s mind and fleshes lusty desire (evil in your flesh).
Spirit: Your spirit’s life force is the energizing, driving force that brings the desires of your soul which is processed by your inner mind and the driving life force of your flesh which is processed by the outer brain together collectively and actively to drive all of this duel nature together. Your spiritual drive is in conflict between the good in you(inner man) and the evil in you (outer man).
Body: Your body is the working active housing process of all these action within and without that performs and demonstrate outwardly the character of what the soul has become good or evil, processed by the two thinking processors soul’s mind and brains desires, driven by the spirit, acted upon by acquired knowledge in good or evil with all visible effects shown in the fleshes deeds and actions.
The best way to explain this is by using a library as a metaphor…Your brain is the books on the shelves where all book information is stored, your soul is the librarian that knows where and how to use correctly this stored information, your body is the building that houses this information , your spirit is the force (visitor) that moves all to act on this information. This is how the process using the word of God should function like, or the information and experiences in your living being should function in like manner.
Fuel of the soul is humble submission to God and his establish laws and authority, constructive too you. Fuel of the flesh is disobedient shame of excessive pride against God’s laws and authority, destructive too you. When the spirit of man is in submission to God’s Spirit the results is union between God’s Spirit and man’s spirit that bring harmony of both, with peace of soul. When the spirit of man is in opposition to God’s Spirit the results is disunion that brings disharmony of both, with unrest of soul . The spiritual drive is the life giving ammunition(active force when triggered by the mind) for both soul and flesh, but the flesh is the battle ground that receive the visible damage, and the soul looses the war. In this war is formed the character of every soul from birth to about ten years old. Mothers, protect your child’s inner man to ensure proper character of soul that will drive their spirits in the right direction and bring life through God’s promises through Christ Jesus.
Remember parents that the new child does not know right from wrong, good from evil, or understands the potential of their duel natures yet but are born with these undeveloped traits. Part of this duel nature is inherited from our fleshy fathers and part is given by the father of all spirits. Through Adam we inherit our fleshy outer man, through Christ’s work of recovery we are reborn of God’s Spirit in our inner spirit man. (See Numbers 27:16, Hebrews 12:9. For God of all spirits) Conflicts of your spirit and God’s will separate your soul from God’s soul and cause conflict between God’s Spirit and your spirit. You will always loose this conflict because your soul and spirit are no match with God’s. All of the souls and spirits that ever have or will walk this earth combined could not match the strength of God’s Mighty Spirit and Soul. Only through the atoning blood of Christ and mighty work of God’s Spirit can we harmonize again with the Father of all Spirits and live.
A child does not have or is not born with deep evil emotional problems. These are acquired from misdirected emotions through bad experiences and the hardships of life caused by this inner war of the duel nature in mankind.
By yelling at your child and pointing out their mistakes in negative manners or telling them they are not able to do things correctly, you are running the risk of turning them into a very bitter angry defensive person when they become an adult and not realize this in self. They will come to a point in their life that when ever someone tries to give them advice, or wants to help them they become combative. They will over compensate by being too combative in life as a child because of the affects of this abuse, and become combative and argumentative and refuse to hear others side of a disagreement. This is because the parent made or allowed others to make them defensive. They will not admit to these problems within themselves by the cover of pride and justify all they do. They will have trouble interacting and communicating with others. They will have trouble taking instruction, and trouble with constructive positive criticism about themselves. All because the parent or peers have scarred them in their younger life and they will react in life to these former demeaning abuses and blame others for their present trouble and not realize this.
We must keep in mind that very young children do not have or are born with experiences in emotions. Most children from one to ten just want to play and have fun. They should not be burdened down with problems grown ups face. So you must be very cautious when monitoring and guiding them. Their flesh will learn how to use these emotions to it’s own destructive advantages simply because the flesh will try and find all kinds of ways to survive and rule minus God. Sometimes like in things I have written in the previous chapters the child through their flesh will use their emotions as a defense mechanism to protect self. The child will be governed by the deceitfulness of the flesh and not understand this. ( HEB 3:13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin EPH 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts😉 If not trained or experienced in their emotions the child will over compensate in their emotions and damage their character by using these mixed misdirected and wrong emotions.
Parents need to focus on the needs and time frame of the child’s needs. Some times parents get sloppy, or selfish, forget, or are just not educated and neglect what their infants needs are. We must remember this is a learning process for the child and they are learning and testing their emotions.
But through this confusion of this learning cycle with no guidance the emotions can cloud what is right in the child’s thinking. The child is forming and developing their will power, but does not realize that the strength of the failure in the flesh and the curse on the flesh is greater them the will of the carnal mind.
Try not to allow your child and yourself to make the mistakes of thinking that stubbornness is will power because they are very different in meaning and certainly different in outcome. These first ten years of a child’s life are the most critical and important developing stages of the human cycle, because this is where the strength of the character is formed. If the character is damages and or corrupted after ten years of age it can be very hard to re- transform without the work of Christ within. Young children under ten years are very resilient and can recover easier than a hardened adult. Everything that a person does is built up upon the character that is formed in these first ten years. (See the five Is’ and five Ws’ for an explanation on will power in the counseling manual.)
My mother was the most influential person in my life and thanks to God I had her for those ten critical years. After her death when I was in my tenth year I lost sight of many things, but eventually the love and training I received from her I kept in my heart, and returned back to her words of guidance in my adult life.
When an infant begins to cry and shows anger or unusual crying and realizes that mom and dad gave the child a bottle, or picked them up, or rocked them or whatever it took to get the parents to respond and meet the infants demands, is also the infant exercising its natural dominance of control. These are emotional tools which are in the child’s emotional fleshes tool box. This is a created law of dominance of God within every human that is probably and problematic in that it is the most misdirected feature in all humans.
No child should ever have the control of dominance over the parent. Simply because the child does not understand the dangers of this emotion, that will use the control of dominance to fulfill the desire of the corrupted flesh. Any Child that is in control of the parent is a child that is out of control and the parent has lost control. Parents do not lose control trying to get control, be patient and loving to you child. These God given laws of creation namely dominance and subdue must be recognized to be channeled properly in positive and healthy direction through the emotions that will benefit the child as he or she matures. These two feature of dominance and subdue should be used to dominate the sinful fleshy mind and subdue the lustful carnal desires of the flesh and not used to control others through control, as so many use them for.
You must change the way you respond and or give in to the demands of your infant and young children. Do not give in because you’re tired of hearing the child cry. Find ways to reach them or get help and teach them that crying and the frustrations of anger are not the way to get a request answered or met.
If you constantly give in to your child’s demands when they are testing their emotional willpower this is what they will learn and then you will wonder why they are a selfish and or a demanding person later on in life. All their actions and inter-actions with others later in life will be either controlling and or damaged. This will be the route the child will take in life because of your actions or no actions with them. The fact is when the child is very young they do not understand the negative disadvantages of frustration, anger, dominance and subdue and the controlling forces of the flesh in these features used as tools when very young.
Every child is different as the solutions for their development will vary in degrees from child to child. However, the answer to these problems are basically the same and most of the answers are sprinkled throughout this book.
If the children are allowed to let their emotions of frustration and anger rule them, they will become the adults with short emotional fuses that explode very easily. The parents may have thought that it was okay to submit to their child’s demands and anger or just allowed it to run unchecked. I have heard some parents state what harm does it make they will get over it, or they need to vent. This is dangerous thinking on a parents part. What the parent is doing is helping to confuse the child’s development and emotions. A parent should never allow their child’s negative emotions to control any situation. Children like this will develop into abusive and or controlling personalities. This happens when the child’s set points in their soul, and mind, brain and flesh are allowed to set in their emotions. (The expression is, they are set in their ways.)
We must be ever so careful in the developmental stages of a child’s life until the child reaches the age of accountability, so the personality and character may be set properly. Even before the birth when the woman discovers she is pregnant should the same care and rule apply.
Why before birth?
This can be an iffy guess to determine just how much a child is affected in the mothers womb or the time frame of what the child feels and understands in the mother. It is better to take every positive precaution right from the go when the knowledge of pregnancy is learned , then to leave the child’s fate to chance or a uneducated guess.
The turmoil outside the mother will affect the child within and the effects will show in the child after birth. The rest of the little soul within the mother will be disturbed by the anxieties of the mother.
If children are left on their own to develop or in the company of other children without proper instruction and training , guidance and direction or to distinguish between right and wrong on their own, the child could end up to be anything from a doctor to serial killer. This is because some children cannot tell the difference from right and wrong. The imagination of a child must be monitored and the things allowed into their eye gates and ear gates must be monitored. Things as peers , television, video games and other misdirected adults are all factors to consider when raising a child.
Do not shield your child from life’s experiences but guide them through, because this also damages them. They need to learn how to channel their emotions properly through your training them, because you will not be with them 24/7. Allow them their own space but with correct supervision. If you shield them too much they will grow up to think it is all about them. They will not have, feel or understand other peoples feelings, emotions and experiences. This make them become judgmental and selfish. If you protect them too much they will not learn the values of interactions with other. Over protected children can also be cold and callous by misunderstanding the feelings of others. They will lack the proper sensitively of the weaknesses or shortcomings of others. They will be blinded of their own faults. By doing what is righteous with them the Spirit of God will bless you and them in life.
We all know the perfect parent and the perfect ideal condition for the most part does not exist in the fleshy heart of mankind. We all have this sinful nature and faults of some kind to deal with that is unique to each of us. What is unfortunate is we pass these flaws down to our children through heredity or ignorance of our misguided duel natures that are corrupted by the flesh and transgressions of God‘s laws of creation.
We are without excuse.
I must say that there are some very amazing parents out there that have raised some amazing and awesome children. Lets try to make every effort to raise our children properly and give them the best opportunity
available to become a whole and successful character in life. Maybe in a few short years this world and your community will be a safer and better place to live and be.
Helpful ideas and instruction for raising your children. .

3. Teach your children the different values and levels of love.
4. Teach your children that they are free good spirits and how to encourage them to feel their spirituality.
5. Allow your children the proper freedom and space to become their own person. If you have given them proper values and training they will live by this training, and you will not have to retrain them through your powers of control as a parent when they go astray. You will end up with a balanced child.
6. Teach your children that they have a war inside of them between good and evil and how to dominate their carnal thinking and to subdue their fleshy desires.

19. Teach our child the values of the strength in being consistent, dedicated, and solid in their thinking.
20. Teach your children it is only human to make honest mistakes but try not to make the same mistake twice because it is a waste of time.
21. Teach your children how to respect themselves, others, authority and things around them.
22. Do things with your children and praise them in their success, do not negatively criticize their failure, but teach them that their mistake can be corrected and they have not failed. If the mistake cannot be corrected , teach them to forgive themselves and move on.
23. Come to your child on their age level to them in understandings without compromising what is just or right. It is easier for them to understand you on their level then for them to understand you on your level.
24. Interact with them in activities and with others so they can understand interactions with other, in this you will be able to draw them from the misguided ways children tend to go in without interactions with others.
25. Let your child know and understand what a beautiful creation children they are, full of life grace and potential to make positive differences.

30. Spend quality time with your children so they can feel your love, care, respect and concern that you care for them. In this they will not feel abandoned and or lone or need and find these thing in other things or people that may misguide them. Do not try to accomplish a healthy relationship with your child on monetary level, you will corrupt their sense of value in life. Love rules over a dollar any day.
31. Special Note To Remember: Your mind is Satan’s work shop and an idol mind is Satan’s play ground. Your desires and lust through pride are the tools of Satan’s trade, your weakness of will or over active lusty desires are the power sources of his tools. Deceit and lies are Satan’s owners manual.
The task ahead of you will not be easy by no means. With certain children and with others it may be easy, with some children and others you deal with it may seem impossible and difficult, but be persistent. All humans are different and each individual will respond differently in the same situation, you must adjust to each child and or readjust your self also.
Final Note: Remember this parents, this war that rages inside of you and others you have encounter, is also raging on inside of your child. It is not a war that one chooses not to be in, but everyone is a involuntary participant. Your child does not have a choice in deciding if he or she chooses to engage in this war. This war is engaged automatically without the choice on the part of the participants and there is no exception all must come to terms with this fact. Your child, or you for that matter, do not have a vote or a choice in deciding if he or she or any for that matter will or will not engage in this epic battle of life. Your child or you do not have a choice in the weapons needed to win this war, except if the individual has submitted to Christ, then the weapons are given by Christ in the form of Spiritual armour, Ehp 6:10-18.
This choice of what shall be done or acted upon belongs to you the parent as a trusted guardian and crusader for your child to lead them. For your child to win or loose this battle depends on you the parent in what you do in the years of character development. I am not speaking about being a material success but about a spiritual success in that it will cover all your child’s bases and this will make them a total success.
My personal note: I wish that I could have known and been taught all these things I understand now in my childhood and youth because the strength I have now would be greater and would have come a lot earlier in my life. However, I would not have changed the direction my life took towards good and God for any reason. I give special; thanks and honor to my deceased mother for the most important ten years of my life. Also to my father whom prayed with me on our knees every night until I was stable enough to overcome my mothers death. .
All that I have learned I give up freely and gladly to serve and better children, parents and others. There are helpful ideas and instructions all through this book for those that want to change and make a difference in this disturbing world we live in.
P.S Also see counselors notes and the section on An Eye Opening Look At Pride And Shame And Humbleness to help you guide child or your teen.
Conclusion: We are not born with the knowledge of sin or acts of sin that so easily defiles our innocence from the time of birth. However, we are born with the potential, the drive and propensity to sin and rebel through shame and pride which causes us to transgress through the knowledge of good and evil that we acquire in life.. This knowledge makes us aware of sin and dictates the direction in which way we go in our decision making in life. We can choose good or evil but we cannot choose the drive that is in our flesh. We learn the disadvantages and the advantages in the acquisition of knowledge as we develop in our duel natures. Our drive to rebel through the sinful flesh is the cause of our willful fleshy and sinful existence. A child when born does not understand the affects of this duel nature. They learn the effects as they grow but still may not understand these flaws. This is how the decision making through the carnal nature and the resistance through the spiritual nature are brought about to engage each other. We are born with the potential to learn and retain the knowledge of good and evil through life’s experiences. At birth our brains are empty of knowledge, however, the desire and potential are present and persist in mankind without Christ.
Parents make your choice today after reading this article on children and save our children from the evils ahead of them through God’s Mighty Spirit by the teachings of Christ and the promise that God has committed himself to through faith in these promises.
Please keep in mind all those of you that read this article that God is kind merciful and patiently waiting for you to come to him so he can love you and transform your life into the image and likeness of Christ, in that all the glory and honor may return to God Almighty, creator of all things. God does not desire that any should parish but that all come to him for eternal life. God wants you to have your soul and mind engage your heart to move your spirit towards him so he can show you and offer you his redemption!
There are those that would want you to reenter the old covenant and serve God through fleshy means or some religious organization and serve their carnally oriented doctrines, but the truth however, is that God is an invisible spirit that wants to meet you on a spiritual level in his spiritual world and only through the person of his Living Word Christ whom is Jesus the man did God approach man in the flesh in order to come close to man on a spiritual level. This is only done through the born-again experience into God’s heavenly family can this occur through the New Covenant God had promised Israel Jeremiah 31:31-34. God’s purpose was to allow those who choose this new covenant to live eternally with God as a god man spirit as Jesus was and not as a carnal disobedient fleshy spirit man! God knew that our sin’s have separated us from him and made Him unapproachable. Through this new covenant he has restored the fellowship with him that Adam had lost through transgression. ISA 59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid [his] face from you, that he will not hear.
Hell and the lake of fire were not created for you but for Satan and his followers. If you choose to follow him through the same self righteous and prideful rebellion, your end will be the same as his. There is no exception, all either come to God and live or rebel against him and parish. There is no other covenant or religion that can both save and redeem you. Choose today whom ye shall serve God or transgressions unto death. The New Covenant is the only valid covenant established by God that can redeem and reform you unto God’s desire through the promise made to Abraham by God and sealed with his honorable oath and commitment by his word of truth Christ God’s Holy visible presence unto man. What shall we say, shall we continue in sin or be restored to righteousness unto holiness.
We are most definitely without excuse.
One more final thought on Our Creator. ( I Have used papyrus scrip here because the one who has ordained all things is the Ancient of Days) There is a professor of Biomolecular Engineering in California that believes that the ancient cosmos and volcanoes played a role in the evolution of simple organisms more than 3 and one half billion years ago, by introducing his readers to astrobiology which is a study of the elements o f geology, astronomy and biology for the life on earth. Science may think and show that some life did exist long ago and there is scientific data that explains this. For in Genesis 1:1 it states that in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth which are both in the plural form, then way over in verse 16 it states that he made the stars also thus indicating that the stars were created at a different time. If we follow the order and path of how God created and set in motion the earth, sun and moon and how things progressed for life starting with the seeds and grasses it is quite conceivable that there was some type of evolving of life taking place . For it states in verse 20 that the waters brought forth living creatures. The word forth means to come out of or bring forth from, this some have missed. After this he made the beast of the field and he made man and formed man from his very hands and has given man his very breath of life. We must remember that life and death were here before man. For in the sea, it was eat and be eaten. These all symbolize spiritual meanings of creation for man and the chaos of death here before man.(See Rom :20,21) This was the serpent of the seas nesting area in the waters. In the oceans of the earth there was death .Then we find this serpent speaking to Eve. If you can notice in verse one that there was darkness over the face of the deep upon which moved the Spirit of God. These are natural symbols with metaphorical implications of what is taking place in the spirit world. We see this being with Eve called the serpent that goes under other names spiritually as Dragon, Satan, Lucifer, the Devil and Leviathan who are one and the same evil spirit that torments by bringing chaos, to man and all of the creation. There was death in the seas because him that is allowed to bring death(The destroyer) lives in the sea. ISA 27:1 In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that [is] in the sea. {He also lives in the sea of Gentles, this is why Jesus made his disciples fishers of men to take back that from the dragon from out of the sea of sinful Gentles that which belong to God.. These are all metaphors that revealed through symbolism in scripture God‘s plan and purpose.} Understanding the metaphorical spiritual symbolism is most important in unlocking the mysteries of the hidden truths of scripture.
So Why have I given this information? So we can understand that biology, astronomy and geology are all created things in the which God’s Word of power through his Spirit has given all things biological on this earth life by him. However, there is something missing in the scientific evidence, that is the fundamental and obvious differences between the biological flesh, brain and carnal desires(Material) that are from the earthly flesh, that are separately and distinctly different from the soul, soul’s mind and the spirit (Spiritual)that came from the breath of God into mankind. The life giver of the soul of man was, is and always will be eternal and above beyond and before all that is created. So unless
you can explain through science the origins of life and life itself then your explanations all fall short of the truth in life and the life giver.
Is not through science that we understand that energy is not lost but transmitted in other forms in equal direction and for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction. If this is so in the natural world then by the same law this applies to the spiritual world because all God’s laws are consistent. When the Spirit that gives life that pushes in life to sustain that life is acted upon by God, then that life of that spirit is moved in the opposite direction with the same force by God into the spirit world and the energy that sustained the body of the flesh returns to the earth from where it came. The spirit then returns to God Whom gave it. ECC 3:21 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth? The beast’s returns to the earth because it is biological and without God’s breath, it does not have the breath of the owner God. This was given to man alone because it represent the live giving Spirit of God. Man’s soul and spirit return to God because they have eternity dwelling within them from God because the spirit’s soul that belongs to God has to return to God.
Our children are no different then us adults and all the rest of man kind, however we neglect them the most and the damage we are doing is showing itself in future generations with a ferocious intensity.
