The Spirit

THE SPIRIT

I mentioned in the introduction that God is Three and still He is One. He has created us in His image and every human being consists therefore of three parts. Referred to 1.Thess.5:23.

ARE YOU BORN AGAIN? DO YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF A CHRISTIAN? DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A NUCLEAR OF AN ATOMBOMB WITHIN YOU? BESIDES ALL OF THAT, YOU ALSO HAVE A PART OF YOU THAT CANNOT SIN.

Jesus says to Nicodemus: “Unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3:3.) Nicodemus had many questions and wondered how that could come about. Jesus answers his questions and says in verse 6 that, that which is born of flesh is flesh, but that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit.

Our spirit is invisible. We cannot see our spirit with our eyes, but it is the most powerful part of our being.

When we receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we become a new creation. ( 2.Cor. 5:17 ) We are not getting a new body nor do we exchange our thoughts over night. Your emotions did not change right away either. To renew our mind and change our emotions is a life-long process. It is called sanctification.

Jesus moves into our spirit with His life and our spirit is born again – becomes a new creation. We are getting all the genetic substances of Jesus. In other words: We are getting JESUS-DNA. An umbilical cord to Heaven is created and that should never be cut as long as we are here on Earth.

What is Jesus? He is PERFECT. He was tempted in everything, but was without sin. It is His sinless nature that moves into our spirit. 1.John 5:18 says that whoever is born of God does not sin.

By first sight it looks like the Bible contradicts itself since 1.John 1:9 says that when we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

It is therefore so important that we understand that our new-born spirit cannot sin, but our soul and body are not perfect. This would stop a lot of confusion in the Body of Christ.

In our spirit we have the SEEDS OF THE NINE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT. The letter to the Galatians, chapter 5:22+23 describes the nine fruits. I mention three of them: LOVE, JOY AND PEACE.

When I talk to people, many complain and say that they lack love and feel worried and fearful. We are actually lying when we confess that we do not have love or faith because the Bible says that God´s love is poured out in our hearts (Rom. 5:5). It also says that perfect love casts out all fear. ( 1.John 4:18) God has given us all this, but we have to see it and dig it out of our spirit.

The devil does not want us to know what we have and to know who we are in Christ. He loves to point a finger at our mistakes and shortcomings and increase them to big balloons. I am so glad that we can puncture balloons.

The Bible tells us in Gal.5:16 that we should walk in the Spirit. God never asks us to do the impossible.

I am old enough to have followed many discussions around the topic: CAN CHRISTIANS HAVE DEMONS? I have never been confused about this since I know the difference between soul and spirit. Christians can have demons in their souls and bodies since these are not perfect. But our PERFECT SPIRIT CAN NOT. Our spirit is born of God and whatever is born of God, overcomes the world. (1.John 5:4 ) A Christian cannot be possessed since he cannot be under total dominion of the devil. JESUS WHO LIVES IN US IS THE STRONGET AND HE HAS CONQUERED THE EVIL ONE.

I mentioned in the beginning that we have a nuclear of an atom bomb within us. Acts 1:8 says that we will receive POWER when the Holy Spirit comes upon us. That power is in our spirit. We have the RESURRECTION-POWER in us. That power rose Jesus from the dead. This power lives in you who are SICK, in you who are full of FEAR, it lives in you who are DEPRESSED and DISPIRITED, in you who is suffering of OPPOSITION and FAILURE. This power lives in all Christians.

In 1.John 4:4 it is written that He WHO LIVES IN YOU is greater than he who is in the world. We must get hold of that truth so that we can see that we have something or somebody big and strong inside of us. This somebody has conquered all the wiles of the devil

SET FIRE TO THE NUCLEAR IN YOU. LET IT BECOME LIKE AN EXPLOSION, DESTROYING ALL THE WORKS OF THE DEVIL IN YOU.

THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!
