Podcast: The way of God upon the earth.

 
 
 
 
The Holy Spirit of God produces the way of God as we live on this earth:  The fruits produced by the Holy Spirit who lives in us are:  love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance:  (Gal. 5:22-23)

The Holy Spirit who is in us searches the heart of God to show us the will of God in the matter at hand.

When we go in the way shown us by the Holy Spirit we produce the fruits of God.

By our fruits we know one another for we have the same Spirit when we are going in the way of God.

The way of the flesh produces evil upon this earth.

Galatians 5:19-21  Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

I Corinthians 6:18  Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

Fornication is a sin unlike all other sins.  For at the time of sexual intercourse, the two become one flesh.

I Corinthians 6:15-16  Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith HE, shall be one flesh.

Living in superstitions is a form of "witchcraft", conjuring by something you do, rather than trusting in the living God.

Hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings ... Trying to exalt yourself above others and to get your own will upon the earth.

(seditions:  conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or government)

Drunkenness, revellings:  

(Revel:  enjoy oneself in a lively and noisy way, especially with drinking and dancing;  get great pleasure from a situation or experience; carouse; usually a wild party or celebration)

Ephesians 5:18   And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

James 4:4  ... Know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

II Corinthians 6:14-18  Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you,

18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Philippians 2  (concerning Jesus)

5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

7 But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon HIM the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

8 And being found in fashion as a man, HE humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted HIM, and given HIM a name which is above every name:

10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Jesus always obeyed God.

Jesus said:  "My kingdom is not of this world."  John 18:36 ... "if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence."

The saints of God viewed themselves as being strangers and pilgrims on this earth.

Hebrews 11:13-17 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.

15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.

16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for HE hath prepared for them a city.

The way of men of this world is opposite from the way of the Spirit of God.

Galatians 5:16  Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

Galatians 5  (Fruit of the Holy Spirit)

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
