The Yeast Pie

Imagine a large pie cut into three equal pieces, one piece is government, another is business, and the third piece is religion, this pie is a yeast pie, or a leavened pie. Hence, the filling is the same for all three pieces of pie, they are all yeast piece of pie, correct?

Each piece of the pie is made of the same stuff as all the other pieces are. Thus, if a person wants to be part of government they are required to make certain changes in their life, dress, and conduct themselves in a professional way. Moreover, this is true of business, and religion, pieces of the yeast pie.

Galatians 5:9 A little yeast grows through the whole lump.

All these pieces have requirements to meet their laws, or doctrines, which they boast of change in the peoples personality associated with them, which is touted as success. They all have pep meetings to encourage upright legal conduct, and obedience to their causes. Moreover, they all boast in numbers as proof of success, or God's blessings, particularly in the case of religions piece of the pie.

1 Corinthians 5:6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?

But all these three pieces of yeast pie uses the same laws, and tactics for success with their people. The laws all three pieces use to control and make progress with its members are the laws of the flesh, that is why the pie is call a yeast pie; sins of the flesh is yeast, according to God.

1 Corinthians 5:8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

Even-though, there are thousands of religions, billions of businesses, and all forms of government, all are connected by sin and the laws controlling sin in people to get desired results. The motivating factor behind the laws is rejection, guilt, and/or punishment for nonconformity, but the question begs is this God's pie, is this the laws that He uses to get desire results making people serve Him?

In fact, the millions of subdivision of each piece of the pie uses the same tactics on other subdivision of the same pie, this is also true of people making up each piece of the pies businesses, government, and religion.

Subsequently, judging, and condemning of each other, but all made up of the same substance of yeast. However, religion above all the pieces argue about the degree of yeast in all the others pieces including it own religion piece.

But actually all the piece are dead, in their sins, none can give life to the other pieces, although religion claims it can. All gain support and finical help by selling and promoting their goodness or good works to other pieces of the pie, but none of the good works can bring eternal life to any of the rest or the pie.

1 John 3:4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.

1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

Romans 5:12 Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man, and death through sin; and so death passed to all men, because all sinned.

A Kingdom no Part of The Yeast Pie

The kingdom of Christ is no part of this yeast pie, it takes none of it laws or doctrines in forming an unleavened Kingdom without sin, nothing of Christ Jesus Kingdom is formed with human hands, or from corrupt hands of sin and yeast.

Matt.7:18 A good tree can't produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.

Daniel 2:44 In the days of those kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed, nor shall its sovereignty be left to another people; but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. 2:45 Because you saw that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king what shall happen hereafter: and the dream is certain, and its interpretation sure.

John 18:36 Jesus answered, "My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I wouldn't be delivered to the Jews. But now my Kingdom is not from here."

Unleavened Pie

Christ Jesus is the unleavened bread of God that gives life to all eating of him, yes, without yeast of sin and corruption. Hence, if Christ died faithful without sin, than his kingdom is also without sin of mankind's yeast pie.

Hebrews 4:15 For we don't have a high priest who can't be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

Heb.7:26 For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.

The mistake Christian's make is looking at the yeast pie, and blaming God for religious failings, and hypocrisy, but fleshly conduct should not be some great mystery to Christian's we are told of false prophets having works of the flesh upon their fruit tree, while convincing others they are good works, by some noble causes as preaching the Good News. Sadly, most Christian's conclude a false prophet is just one person, but this is erroneous thinking

Hence, any composite group teaching the same doctrine would have fruit we could see as good or bad fruit, it does not have to be an individual. It is the message of a false prophet that misleads, correct?

Gal.5:9 A little yeast grows through the whole lump.

Gal.5:19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, 5:20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, 5:21 envyings, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God.

Galatians 6:8 For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

Matt.7:15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. 7:16 By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? 7:17 Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit.

So when Christian's focus their eyes upon the yeast pie, that is, those of the yeast pie formed into religion, government, or businesses they miss the truth of Christ Jesus without yeast of sin in his coming kingdom that is unshakable.

Truth What Is it?

Here we find the greatest confusion among Christian's formed by the yeast pie into a religious dogma, what does this mean. It means rather understood, or not, they are fleshly Christian's or weeds, having no real spiritual insight. Their view of truth as doctrines defended by the will of their flesh creating wars between all pieces of the yeast pie, but is this “Spirit and Truth”?

Truth the ultimate question, what is it? Well, certainly many have been killed over someones so called interpretation of truth, but God YHWH leaves us no doubt, He says truth is entrusted to His Son Christ Jesus, that is, he is called the truth and the way. Hence, confusing some doctrinal dogma that may, or may not be truth depending upon the person life/lifestyle expressing it, Christ Jesus is rather the truth for us.

He is the one true prophet of God designated by God having the rightful legal justification by his own righteousness to stand in for the human race. In other words, rather we like it or not, Christ Jesus is truth for Christian's, what does this mean? It mean his earthly life under the flesh lined up perfectly with God's righteous law of Moses.

Subsequently, because he righteously meant the justice of the Old Law of Moses he replaced it, or fulfilled it by his own righteousness.
In this manner Christ Jesus becomes our righteousness, by God giving us a free gift of Christ Jesus life, by the power of unmerited kindness. Thus, for us to know truth we must be in the truth, that is, in Christ Jesus; actually his life, and his life in us.

Christ True Church No Part of The Yeast Pie

What is the true church of Christ Jesus, is it one made up from the yeast pie, and its rules or dogma? Well, once again we know that Jesus is no part of this world, he has been set free from laws judging him according to his flesh.

John 6:63 It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.

Romans 8:6 For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace.

Romans 8:8 Those who are in the flesh can't please God.

Romans 8:12 So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

2 Corinthians 5:16 Therefore we know no one after the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

So the one most important teaching a Christian's must address is; the church of God is not flesh with fleshly members, but spiritual with
many spiritual member belonging to each other by God's own Holy Spirit, it is not seen with human eyes anymore so than the Kingdom of Christ Jesus in heavens, even though some of its members are still in their flesh on the yeast pie.

Simply put, we know Christ no more by flesh, but instead by Spirit, and the true church is the body of Christ a spiritual body, seen by faith and worshiped in truth.

This is why Jesus Christ could unequivocally state to both the sheep and goats that neither group knew when they had done to Christ Jesus brothers. Even-though, Christ brothers were in their flesh suffering, neither the sheep nor the goats in the yeast pie, knew them as the congregation of the living God, Jehovah.

Matt. 25:32 Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 25:33 He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. 25:40 "The King will answer them, 'Most certainly I tell you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers{The word for "brothers" here may be also correctly translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."}, you did it to me.'
25:41 Then he will say also to those on the left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; 25:42 for I was hungry, and you didn't give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;
25:43 I was a stranger, and you didn't take me in; naked, and you didn't clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn't visit me.'
25:44 "Then they will also answer, saying, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn't help you?' 25:45 "Then he will answer them, saying, 'Most certainly I tell you, inasmuch as you didn't do it to one of the least of these, you didn't do it to me.' 25:46 These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

Simply Act of Kindness

Here we find those in the yeast pie fighting over so called truth, but it was one simply act of kindness towards Christ Jesus brothers that Christ Jesus rewards them into his Kingdom, shocking! Yes, all the wrangling over who is the best religion by doctrine, ends up as of no account by flesh yeast pie Christian's, it is rather doing good unknowingly to Christ brothers which gives them life.

All the power of self-will and their laws built up to protect their religious organization fails them, by one simple act of kindness, they lose by hardheartedness towards anyone not of their group. All the good works done in the name of Christ Jesus are actually sin, and lawlessness, why? Because they were done from a yeast pie which is opposed to Christ Jesus Kingdom.

Good works of their group in meeting attendance and their respected name gone, by simply, overlooking mercy towards one of Christ Jesus brothers, but how?

Simply put, they love the glory of men over truth, one act of kindness by God Himself redeemed all of Christ Jesus brothers, kindness, unmerited kindness, yet, these yeast pie Christian's cannot understand kindness of God, how can they do a kind act to one of Christ Jesus brothers? Much like the proud Pharisee's that thought they would get life from the scriptures only to be told by Christ Jesus:

John John 5:39 "You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me.

John 5:40 Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

The very law they worshiped prevented them from doing one kind act towards Christ Jesus, and later his apostles, the same mind-set of many weed-Christian's that cannot do a kind act because of a organizational teachings.

They are so busy proving themselves righteous by law of yeast that they cannot show mercy in fear of breaking some religious law of their group. So busy reproving others for unrighteous acts that they conclude superiority over them, like a leader who does not bow to their subjects, in this case sinners, not accepted by their self-righteous group.

Staying Free of Yeast

Jesus made it clear, to be free of yeast, one would have to become a part of unleavened bread, and eat thereof. There is no other way for a person to have life, what life? When the prophet of old, that is, before Christ ate the scroll of judgment, it became part of them, they were God's judgment to the nations sent. Their experience became their truth, part of their life.

Those made a part of Christ Jesus have been set free from the yeast pie, by the life of Christ. In real terms, not religious parroting of words, a Christian's become part of the unleavened bread of Christ Jesus, free from sins laws.

They are no part of the yeast pie, and they are hated for Christ Jesus life, which cannot be seen by the yeast pie as desirable. The yeast pie is full of judgment by self-merit, every facet of the yeast pie judges a person worthy by what merit the gain on earth. They cannot understand unmerited kindness, it goes contrary to the yeast in them from Adam's sin.

Although, they understand the words, unmerited kindness, this is as far a it goes, it seems a weakness too them, an excuse for loose conduct without laws of yeast to control the wickedness of their flesh.
This is why they are found not doing a simply kindness to one of Christ Jesus brothers, blinded by self-rightness, justifying themselves by laws of the flesh they miss completed the power of one simply act of kindness.

Accepting Christ Jesus Righteousness

Thus, a wheat Christian's that is a true Christian's who humbles themselves in accepting another person righteousness, not their own to be no part of the yeast pie, what does this mean? It means one cannot remove yeast from yeast, one cannot unpolluted water by polluted water, one cannot get a fig from a throne bush.

The yeast flesh, that is, the death of sin in our flesh must die, and be resurrected into Christ Jesus unleavened bread to be no part of the yeast pie. There is no other way, no matter how many lies the Christian's in the yeast pie promote as life, it is only “in Christ Jesus life”; life comes from for those in the yeast pie.

John 6:27 Don't work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him."

John 6:33 For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world."

John 6:35 Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will not be hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.

No one comes to the Father accept through the righteousness of Christ Jesus, accepting his righteousness instead of our own is the key to life and faith. But in order to do that we must accept the gift of unmerited kindness from YHWH. Yes, kindness, not judgment, this kindness is hated by those a part of the yeast pie.

Rom. 7:18 For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don't find it doing that which is good. 7:19 For the good which I desire, I don't do; but the evil which I don't desire, that I practice. 7:20 But if what I don't desire, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwells in me.
7:21 I find then the law, that, to me, while I desire to do good, evil is present.

1Cor.1:29 that no flesh should boast before God. 1:30 But of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption.

They refuse it (unmerited kindness) and condemn those teaching it a truth, they resist and war against anything that does not bring their flesh into submission by mock humility of self-will. Yes, the power of their own will that creates in them a self-righteousness in to meetings some rules of their group, while, lying denying other rules of the same group.

Subsequently, erroneously, the laws of their group gives life too them, but only this life in the yeast pie, that is, a better more righteous life by merit in the eyes of human beings. However, they use this self-willed righteousness to judge and condemn others not doing the same, thus, they judge from blindness to blindness, nothing more, they judge from laws of death, or the sinful flesh, one another of the same yeast pie.
