  21. Let's look at one to four, and then we just

  22. do one this colosions three.

  23. One.

  24. Let me read the message first, because I like the

  25. way you push it. And then we come here and

  26. pick some of the lesson. If you are going to

  27. be the new man, you're going to be a good believer. Yes,

  28. let me use that. But the focus is on the

  29. construction of the new Man and then the demolition of

  30. the remnants of the old man. Now look at the message,

  31. he says, So if you are serious underlying.

  32. Haliah.

  33. So if you are serious about living, this news is

  34. resurrection life with Christ, act like it now you see,

  35. pursue the things.

  36. Over which Christ resides.

  37. Two, don't shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with

  38. the things right in front of you. Look up and

  39. be alet to what is going on around Christ. That's

  40. where the actually is.

  41. See things from his perspective. Three. I like this one.

  42. Your old life is dead, your new life, which is

  43. your real life, even though.

  44. Invisible to spectators. And like that. He says that that's

  45. the mystery of godliness.

  46. Later on, you see, how are we being able to

  47. survive in the kingdom and still be believes and still continue.

  48. It's the mystery the Holy Spirit in us, the mystery

  49. of Godliness. Why we don't insult, why we don't and

  50. do the poon, How we were able to break the

  51. pon the strangle of the porn life of our life.

  52. How we're able to get out of all those vices,

  53. the mystery the Holy Spirit and our co oppression, our

  54. tender to lectures and participating in everything, the life in

  55. the kingdom, even the school of the Spirit. My people

  56. perish for lack of knowledge. With all that, getting get wisdom,

  57. get understanding. That is where it begins from. So if

  58. you're not doing your quiet time, well what kind of

  59. knowledge are you basing on your running your You won't survive.

  60. You won't survive. Halenelujah. He said, your whole life is dead.

  61. Your new life, which is your real life, even though

  62. invisible to spectators, is with Christ in God.

  63. He is your life now. Verse four.

  64. He says, when Christ, your real life, remember, shows up

  65. again on this earth, you show up to the real you,

  66. the glorious you. Meanwhile, the content with obscurity like Christ.

  67. I wonder how message and interpreted it with this, because

  68. it's very key be content with obscurity like Christ. Let's

  69. pack a few lessons there, maybe the best one. Let's

  70. look at the best one, living the new life. Now,

  71. let's look at the NLT. It says, since you have

  72. been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights

  73. on the realities of heaven where Christ sits in the

  74. place of partner at God's writer. I just want to

  75. use them just three key things there that this verse

  76. talks about three things. T. Then someone say, God advice

  77. is for tea time. The tea is for think.

  78. Think.

  79. This school is for thinkers, say amen, and God will

  80. help us think the e this versus saying elevate for elevation.

  81. Amen.

  82. Now you're going to think christ like thoughts. And then

  83. that a is for anticipate the rewards.

  84. Amen. So t time to think and to think.

  85. With God as I want eating, He says, what come,

  86. and let us reason together. Though your sins are like scolored,

  87. they shall be as white as snow, and though they

  88. be as red as creams. God is a think And

  89. if you look at the guardian of eating, the creation

  90. of man. I always say that the first task that

  91. God assigned to Adam that we know of in the

  92. guardian of eating was a thinking process. It gave him

  93. the task and the assignment of giving and assigning names to.

  94. All the creation.

  95. God created them by He said, Sun, you know something

  96. I want to dot your your brains to.

  97. Don't your faith faie.

  98. He created us thinking as thinking beings. And so we

  99. find out that Adam was able to reason, think, make

  100. a distinction between all the plant and animals species, and

  101. give acceptable names to everything. That was a thinking pest,

  102. no doubt. At the end of it, it was very

  103. tired and lowly. Hallelujah. But this was an exhaustive exercise. Halleluiah.

  104. A man is the same thing you're going to survive

  105. in the school of the spirit.

  106. You're going to think. God is going to joke to

  107. you so that we can think.

  108. But the thing about the thinking is that, now let's

  109. look at the next thought. As I said, the e

  110. which is the elevator. It is not just the thing

  111. we're coming from the old man.

  112. Who the old man?

  113. You know the kind of thoughts that was inundating our

  114. minds and you had no control over them.

  115. Amen.

  116. And we know how that one happened when our first sperience.

  117. Can we look at that briefly, can we go to

  118. Genesis three. So once again, as we said, who are

  119. you thinking with? Who are you holding those conversations with?

  120. Look at Genesis three. Look at Genesis three one to seven,

  121. the part that I likely says, did God actually say

  122. you shall not eat of any tree in the garden?

  123. Did God really say you must not eat the fruit.

  124. From any of the trees? And then what is he

  125. trying to do that?

  126. Can you adam any you are behaving like robots?

  127. Can you start thinking? Did God say that?

  128. Now listen to the woman. And the woman said to

  129. the serpent, we may eat off the food of the

  130. trees in the god.

  131. But God said, you shall not eat of.

  132. The tree of the tree, the fruit of the tree

  133. that is in the midst of the garden. Neither shall

  134. you touch it lest you die. And the serpent said,

  135. unto the woman, you shall not surely die, for God

  136. Dad knew that in the day that he eat thereof.

  137. Now listen to him.

  138. Then your eyes shall be opened, and he shall be

  139. as God's knowing good and evil. And when the woman

  140. saw that the tree was good for food, and that

  141. it was pleasant to the eye, and a tree to

  142. be desired to make one wise. She took off the

  143. fruit thereof and did eat, and gave also on to

  144. her husband with her, and he did it. And the

  145. eyes of them both were open, and they knew that

  146. they were naked. And then they sealed leaves together and

  147. made themselves aprons.

  148. Think him.

  149. That's where the serpent was able to get our faced,

  150. parients are that men? They went thinking or reasoning with

  151. a serpent. And what was the result. Amen, The things

  152. that you put in the books that you are reading.

  153. They cannot converse the people that you are holding conversations with.

  154. But you are listening the arguments that they are making

  155. that you shouldn't pay types in church. You go to

  156. church too much. You are praying too much. You are

  157. fasting too much when you know that there are things

  158. that need to be demolished in your life, and such

  159. the Bible says they do not go except by fasting

  160. and by praying.

  161. That is what Jesus said.

  162. Now you go ahead, and you are listening to opinion leaders.

  163. It doesn't matter where that they are in your hope.

  164. They say, first thing is not good for your health.

  165. And then because you know so, I went to my doctor,

  166. says actually did you think I ever advised any of

  167. my patience not too fast. It's a spiritual exercise, and

  168. not fast thing for fastings sake. It's a spiritual undertaking

  169. and it needs You need spiritual to combat and to

  170. confront the devil and to destroy the old man. You

  171. you love the old man, else you won't get fasting.

  172. A believer, You're being destroyed by the old man. You're

  173. all your mind, all your FoST and all things. It

  174. is only mimika. And when God examines your thoughts there

  175. ninety oh. And God has given us a tool to

  176. be able to vacount, and he said, no, I won't

  177. do it the word of God. Now let's look at

  178. some nineteen. What needs we need to be doing to

  179. shape Now listen, we saw what happened to Adam and Eve.

  180. Now listen to God in this world. I'm nineteen. Let's

  181. look at from seven to eleven. Let's look at seven

  182. to eleven where he zooms. He says, the law of

  183. the Lord is perfect converting the soul.

  184. The testimony of the Lord is.

  185. Sure, making wise, the simple making wise. That all the

  186. Adam and even needed to do is that this is

  187. what Daddy said. That's all and not to go around reasoning.

  188. The Bible says that such comes not except by prayer

  189. and by first thing. So I'm going to first, I

  190. say that the liberties of the Lord, I am free,

  191. so that when I'm thinking now, I can think good

  192. thoughts and the devil can be prohibited from injecting me

  193. thoughts about anybody. Hey, you can't have those thoughts, you know,

  194. and be able to go on your knees and pray

  195. and sing.

  196. So sooner than later.

  197. In the school, he said, the goal is perfecting the

  198. stand us in the school of the Fairite.

  199. Dear, they are they are there.

  200. They are very high standards, no compromise from God, excellence, holiness,

  201. and he says, I will help you. That's why I've

  202. planted or taken residence in your heart the Holy Spirit.

  203. So the Holy.

  204. Spirit is now injecting you know, anger, conflicts, strife every

  205. time into your heart, into your spirit, and then you

  206. are entertaining and cultivating it. That oh, and receiving yourself. Oh,

  207. I'm going again. I am spiritfuled. If you are spiritfuel,

  208. that's not the kind of thoughts that you should be

  209. thinking about. So you see, the whole thing is about reasoning.

  210. It's certain an element of logic should come in. That's

  211. why God say, come and let us reason together. You

  212. won't change because you're won again. But nobody is seeing

  213. an itchy because you are not prepared to the same

  214. pool that test. The money of the Lord is sure making.

  215. Wise the simple God.

  216. Said, it is in his word.

  217. So you fight it.

  218. Why am I having all the negative thoughts about Sister

  219. A and his rather b no, I rejected.

  220. That's what I said of me. I want to go.

  221. I want to be naive until like you showed me

  222. a demonstrator. You're a bad boy or bad man. Give

  223. Allelujah the benefit of the doubt. Let's go. Let's eight.

  224. The statues still talking about reasoning with God thought, God's thoughts,

  225. getting acquainted with god thoughts, reading, meditating on it, acting

  226. and living it out.

  227. The statues of the Lord.

  228. We are still constructing the human we are demolishing and

  229. that the old man at the same time as constructing.

  230. In the school of the Spirit the statues of the Lord,

  231. I write, rejoicing the heart. No joy in your life

  232. when you read like I always say that these things

  233. that you read the Bible again, you've never kissed your

  234. Bible before, or you've not had your Bible before.

  235. Listen to what the way David is speaking. Rejoicing the heart.

  236. The commandment of the Lord is pill and lightening the eyes.

  237. Nine.

  238. The fear of the Lord says, it's the beginning of wisdom.

  239. It's clean, enduring forever. The fear of the Lord. Because

  240. God said it, I don't do it. Your friends said,

  241. let's go in there. There's a bitch party today. It's independence.

  242. Though I asked you bored, can you go with me?

  243. It's one time.

  244. Oh have you watched some movies before or you don't know.

  245. I'm more of there's this new Black Bustard movie on Netflix.

  246. Come come, come, let us. It's on my laptop, like

  247. I says. I was telling me, I'm sure she's listening

  248. to me.

  249. On life, and she says I was bored, So I

  250. decided that no, let me, let me, let me do

  251. some movie time.

  252. Movie time.

  253. The fear of the Lord enduring forever. The judgments of

  254. the Lord are true and righteous. Altogether. Ten now listen.

  255. More to be desired, are they than gold? Yay than

  256. match fine gold? Sweeter also than Annie and the Ane.

  257. Come when you are reasoning with the Lord. Amen, it's

  258. a blessard and a mercy for God they shall obtained mess.

  259. And then in the semon and the man Jesus gives

  260. us for his disciples. He taught extensively about kingdom ethics

  261. and Valus. Kingdom ethics and Valus. You have heard of

  262. all that has been said, and I for an eye

  263. and a two fold But I say unto you, equipping

  264. us the way we can reason along with him, not here.

  265. With us or with him. He's the only wise God. Hallelujah.

  266. So sometime we're.

  267. Aging, Oh God, God, God, God will never give way.

  268. He will leave you when he's reasoning with you. He said, no, no, no,

  269. you listening to my viewpoint? You your viewpoint. Hallelujah.

  270. Amen.

  271. Sweeter than honey and the anecom verse eleven. Moreover, I

  272. like that this one. Now listen, he said. Moreover by

  273. them is thy seven number one.

  274. Won't And in keeping of them, there's great reward. Why

  275. will go say? I won't?

  276. And that's why my tea the next one, the elevation,

  277. elevation of the kind of thoughts that we have, Harley

  278. louis a time to renew and elevate our thoughts concerning

  279. God and our world, so that we.

  280. Direct our thoughts having word.

  281. And this is done to motivate and challenge us for

  282. the efforts and energies needed to demolish the old man

  283. and construct the new man. Else the whole enterprise will

  284. become a for your school. Let me take it again.

  285. The reason why we must elevate our thoughts like this

  286. one and God is very very clear, very very clear.

  287. God never means his worse. He says, they are wanting

  288. that there is precepts. They will want us the pathway

  289. that you are going. Remember, we have already later setting

  290. from disting certain things. That's setting from the mentors that

  291. you get. When you are enrolled in the School of

  292. the Spirit and you are attending school and taking your lessons,

  293. you descend the voice of God. So when God is

  294. speaking to you, know that God is speaking to He

  295. said that I'm the good shepherd, and my.

  296. Sheep hear my voice.

  297. How can he guide you if you can't hear his voice?

  298. How do you know that this is this is the

  299. Holy Spirit my rabbi teaching me, or this is the

  300. voice of Satan. If you don't come to school you know,

  301. and it's a whole. And Eve was tripped as God said.

  302. He said, no, he said that as for this treet dear,

  303. oh you won't he said that they will do it.

  304. You will die. He said, oh no, you won't die.

  305. You won't die, because God even knows that you become wiser.

  306. So the same word of God, and then he twisted

  307. it a little bit. You see, the same thing as

  308. he did it to Jesus in these temptations in the world.

  309. And that's sati.

  310. The same word of God knows.

  311. And if you don't know that and descend the voice

  312. of God, and that's that's, that's that's that's.

  313. How come many of us who are having unable to

  314. demolish the old man and construct the new man. It's

  315. all because of that. That's what the word we are

  316. coming though. As for church we are coming though, that's

  317. for the preaching we are listening to. But now when

  318. we're finished, to say this one, it's not for me.

  319. It's for those who want to be past this. I mean,

  320. never seen that any instructions in the Word of God.

  321. That is for past us. It's for the sample art

  322. the obedience. When we started following the word of God.

  323. We are not past this. We are just sharing our tests.

  324. And that's what pastors do. That's why if you don't

  325. do it, you can't teach to do and to teach.

  326. If you're not validated it, you can't talk about it.

  327. Amen.

  328. The word of God is the same word for jagr students,

  329. for primary suit, for the CEO, for old men, anybody

  330. who comes to Christ is the same word.

  331. It's the same word.

  332. Know what a down word for anybody moreover by them

  333. is the seventh world.

  334. And in keeping of them there is great reward. Harlenluiah. Amen.

  335. Else, if you don't elevate your thoughts, renew them in

  336. the world, begin to reason with God, thing with God

  337. in the world. Listen to him, Listen to the teacher,

  338. have a very well structured quiet time, make time for God, five, ten,

  339. fifteen minutes. Can't you see that your growth in the

  340. Lord is dwarft. You're not growing five minutes and quiet

  341. time or not at all. And all this excuse you're

  342. not going to grow. You'll not be able to demolish.

  343. The old man.

  344. And the all is as for say it, and he

  345. comes to still kill and destroy. His intention is that

  346. you vacates the construction of the New Man, hallelujah. And

  347. then the third one we said is anticipate time, to

  348. anticipate and to convert the rewards and glories of heaven.

  349. Hallelujah. Amen. Get into a state of preparedness.

  350. If you don't prepare to succeed in your Christian life,

  351. you are preparing to fail. If you don't prepare to succeed,

  352. you are invariably you are preparing to fail.

  353. It doesn't just happen. You must be intentional.

  354. Every morning I wake up, Elie, I read my way

  355. every morning. Every Sunday, I'll be intentional or wake up

  356. Ellie and then go to church. I'll participate in the

  357. life of the church. I want to be a part

  358. of the Bible, steady, to know more. It doesn't just happen.

  359. I'm going to sleep. If I wake up, I'll go

  360. to check.

  361. You won't wake up, yeah, he when.

  362. You are sleeping, Yeah, Sometimes you wake up and it's

  363. the e of Mischurch and then you look and say, wow,

  364. the time is not it? Then I was hurry up,

  365. And then you are coming to check and you are running.

  366. You are running as the deer.

  367. Panted after the waters, so my soul pants. After I did,

  368. I couldn't iron before eyes like you.

  369. Are in now say something, I mean still iron and

  370. put down before we sleep, and immediately you wake up

  371. the day that you don't, then you put on your

  372. the one life, not iron you put and then you

  373. put the jacket on.

  374. I'm going to church. Amen.

  375. If you don't prepare to succeed, yeah, preparing to feel

  376. no escaping and now, but God has promised to us

  377. and that should be enough motivation to stay in school

  378. for the skills and competence is needed to construct the

  379. new man God.

  380. Now let's go back to the vest.

  381. Now we are looking at collusions three one the worst one.

  382. He said, Tea, think recon. Think about recon. Recon a

  383. new man. God wants you to be in school. God

  384. is doing a new thing. The old man is gone.

  385. If he then be risen with Christ. He's telling us

  386. about our current state. Think about it. That's what he said.

  387. Seek, seek those things which are bad. Elevate your faults.

  388. How long are you going to do that point?

  389. Is it elevating the young boys that will go to

  390. school and they show you, Yeah, you can't even go

  391. and get reported to the teacher, hallelujah, see those things

  392. which are bad where Christ sated are the right hand

  393. of God.

  394. Elevate your thoughts. It's a noble calling.

  395. We are being invited to have a walk with the

  396. King of kings. And the Lord of laws is a

  397. holy God. He will know how the standards. He said,

  398. perfection is the goal. Be you holy, for I am holy.

  399. So immediately you know that, Look, this is my life,

  400. this anger. If I don't cooperate to destroy so that

  401. my conversations with other people, and like we have said

  402. that the undercarrent of the disorderly conversation is sometimes brewed

  403. by the anger, the rage, the conflict, the unforgiveness, the

  404. race in hous. So we can't look each other that

  405. eyeball to eyeball and have a very good conversation because

  406. something is boiling within us. And God says, no, you can't, Amen,

  407. you are new. All things are new work in the spirit,

  408. and you not have the opportunity to fulfill.

  409. The desires of the flesh.

  410. And they enlisted gnations fight ninety all the desires of

  411. the flesh, so we can identify them.

  412. And demolish them.

  413. Then he says that the new Man or the fruit

  414. of the Holy Spirit is love, it's joy, it's peace.

  415. So I must.

  416. Cultivate love, the joy of the law, the peace, His

  417. peace that passed all understanding, kindness, meekness, patience, self control, gentleness,

  418. and faithfulness, loyalty to God and to the people that

  419. God has called us to. And then we said, and

  420. the spirit above where Christ see seek those things whichever

  421. aware Christ sited and the writer anticipate that God is

  422. going to honor us. That's what is the rewards. God

  423. is not just using us. He wants to use us, yes,

  424. but He's not just going to use us and discard us.

  425. He said in this life, that's the promise of the Gospel,

  426. in this life, and then in the life. Yet after

  427. that's the big occasion, the big the whole show is

  428. not going to happen.

  429. Yeo.

  430. The whole show of the Christian life is when we die.

  431. That's when the new life is going to be. And

  432. the life with God her life.

  433. Amen. So God wants childlife thinkers.

  434. God wants God dependent thinkers and not the self made

  435. lots of us of our day and time.

  436. No, And you reason in the Bible with.

  437. God by reading your word, going out there and knowing

  438. that by all means we will be rewarded.

  439. For me, that alone is.

  440. The energy that has kept me in this Christian faith,

  441. the fact that I will be rewarded, not just in

  442. this life, and.

  443. The rewards to you.

  445. the Lord, we say all the days of my life.

  446. Some twenty three. He'll be a shepherd, you'll be a guide. Yeah,

  447. though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

  448. yet will I fear no evil, for thou art with

  449. me the protective covering of the blood. You are reassured

  450. that He's with you. Hallelujah. And it gives you a

  451. certain boldness and competence not to be afraid of the dark.

  452. When you are sleeping, you bind and you sleep in

  453. Jesus' name until the Holy spirin works you up for

  454. school time. As compared to once upon a time when

  455. when you sleep you can't sleep. All the nightmares, all

  456. the tossing, all the sweating, all the fear, and with

  457. thank God, let's me read best to an endmo, just

  458. I'll just read it. The best to listen says, set

  459. your affection on things above, not on things on the

  461. four ye are dead and your life is hit with

  462. Christ in God best. Four When Christ, who is our life,
