Reforming The Sinful Flesh

John 8:32 You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."{Psalm 119:45}

Here is the shocking news that the apostle Paul got when he received the power of the Holy Spirit in his life, and what was that news? “That nothing good dwelt in his flesh!”

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.

Have you as a Christian's received that good news? Good news! How can that be good news? If we want to be free, truly free, we must accept this good news, otherwise we are in captivity to the fallen flesh, and its thoughts which is dead to God and Christ, did you know that?

John 8:36 If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.

Rebuilding the Fallen Flesh

John 2:19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

John 2:20 The Jews therefore said, "Forty-six years was this temple in building, and will you raise it up in three days?" 2:21 But he spoke of the temple of his body.

Did you know what is conspicuously missing from your bibles, and what is that? Rebuilding of our fallen flesh into a better man that God can accept. Here are foundation truths that we must accept, or we are not in the truth.

1.) God kills sins, 2.) God does not reform sins, and 3.) God atones for our sin which kills them, and lastly, 4.) God kills our flesh in Christ Jesus.

1 John 3:6 Whoever remains in him doesn't sin. Whoever sins hasn't seen him, neither knows him.

1 John 3:9 Whoever is born of God doesn't commit sin, because his seed remains in him; and he can't sin, because he is born of God.

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

James 1:15 Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.

God is truth, God calls his Son Christ Jesus the truth, if a person ever lies once they can never be called the truth, for truth never lies! God is sinless, Christ is sinless, they have never sinned or will they ever sin. Once a person sins they are a sinner, they can never make themselves sinless. Do you understand this simple fundamental truth?

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

Romans 6:7 For he who has died has been freed from sin.

Now that we have established we are all sinners, and we can never be called the truth, does this truth offend you? If so than one has not accepted the Christ. God must make us a non-sinner, and God must give us the truth.

Romans 6:18 Being made free from sin, you became bondservants of righteousness.

This is the primary doctrine of all the scriptures, we can have knowledge of the bible a good education of the scriptures even (Greek and Hebrew language) being a Doctor of theology and not have this primary doctrine, why?

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.

Because from these foundational stone, the primary doctrine of the Christ, God's Holy Spirit must reveal the truth to us, not man, and we must be completely redeemed by God through Christ giving us a new life without sin, did you know that?

Colossians 1:26 the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations. But now it has been revealed to his saints.

1 Corinthians 2:10 But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

Heb. 6:1 Therefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, let us press on to perfection--not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith toward God,
6:2 of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
6:3 This will we do, if God permits.
6:4 For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit,

Luke 10:21 In that same hour Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight."

Refining Sin is From The Devil

There is no such thing as refining sin, one cannot take yeast out of bread once its permeated with yeast. God does not take sin from human by works of law, he does not slowly refined sin out of us, like so many in false religion teaches. This concept of refining sin out of us is the root of all false religion, and its the root of self-righteousness the Jewish faith fell into causing their destruction by God.

Ephesians 2:9 not of works, that no one would boast.

1 Corinthians 5:7 Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.

James 3:12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water.
3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.

God is our salvation, salvation means being saved out of death (sin)! If one can slowly through works of law refined sin out of themselves than Christ died in vain! Are we saved out of sin, by atonement that God gives us freely by our faith or are we refining sin out of us by application of scriptures in good works? One has to be purchased from death into life by the precious blood of another person without sin. Primary doctrine of Christ.

Revelation 14:4 These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.

1Pet.1:18 knowing that you were redeemed, not with corruptible things, with silver or gold, from the useless way of life handed down from your fathers, 1:19 but with precious blood, as of a faultless and pure lamb, the blood of Christ;

Finding and Living in Truth

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.

Truth is not educating into our flesh by scriptures, truth must be given us in a sinless life or it is not truth. Flesh cannot know truth it is opposed and contrary to truth of Spirit, which is the Christ. We must be saved in Christ, and truth be revealed too us by Holy Spirit. If we could educated ourselves in the way of truth by scriptures alone than Christ died in vain! We can only be lead to Christ by bible truths.

John 1:45 Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

Revelation 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" He who hears, let him say, "Come!" He who is thirsty, let him come. He who desires, let him take the water of life freely.

Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, that you may not do the things that you desire.

It is the reasoning of our fallen flesh and it mind that tries to refine sin, and creates a works of law worship called false religion. If one puts fresh pure water into polluted water it does not make waters of eternal life. If one puts yeast into unleavened bread it does not make it unleavened bread. The polluted water must not touch that which is clean, or the yeast that which does not have yeast or both will become valueless and Christ died in vain!

Haggai 2:12 'If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment, and with his fold touches bread, stew, wine, oil, or any food, will it become holy?'" The priests answered, "No."

Judging Dead Sinful Flesh

Romans 14:10 But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

What judges our flesh dead? Primary foundational stone to the truth of our faith. Does the scriptures judge our flesh dead? Does doing works of a religious organization judge our flesh dead? Who judges our flesh dead paying the price for our sins, and making us stand before God without judgment?

1 Peter 3:21 This is a symbol of baptism, which now saves you--not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Proverbs 20:9 Who can say, "I have made my heart pure. I am clean and without sin?"

Job 14:4 Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? Not one.

Christ! Thanks be to Christ for nothing good dwells in our flesh of sin. Here is the folly of Christian's in false religion stuck in the primary doctrines of Christ thinking they our righteous and wise, and what is that? Would you go to a funeral and judge a dead body from your bible?

Romans 6:4 We were buried therefore with him through baptism to death, that just like Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.

Ecclesiastes 9:5 For the living know that they will die, but the dead don't know anything, neither do they have any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

What is the point? Will it help the dead? Will it satisfy your anger because the person did not do what you wanted while he/she lived? What is the point? Did the person pay the price of sinning? This is a yes or no question nothing in between where the devils dwells with lies of our flesh?

Matt.5:37 But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes' and your 'No' be 'No.' Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Yes the price of sin has been paid and all future life depends upon whom? You, me, or God?

Do you understand primary doctrine that judgment upon the price our flesh would have to pay for sin; happen long before we learned the bible? Yes, in the Garden of Eden the case was tried and finished thousand's of years ago. We have all been paying the price of sin since. God has not reformed one man by good works, and/or works of law into a perfect man. In fact, God insults our very thinking of such goodness, by sending us someone from his own world without sin so he could “save us” out of sin!

Psalms 49:7 none of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give God a ransom for him.

Isa. 40:6 The voice of one saying, "Cry!" One said, "What shall I cry?" "All flesh is like grass, and all its glory is like the flower of the field.
40:7 The grass withers, the flower fades, because Yahweh's breath blows on it. Surely the people are like grass. 40:8 The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God stands forever."

Primary doctrine of Christ, stop judging, stop judging, what? That which is dead in Christ, and what is that? Our fallen flesh. We have been saved out of the death (sin) of the fallen flesh and live in Christ where judgments of our flesh is dead (sinless)!

Matt.7:1 "Don't judge, so that you won't be judged. 7:2 For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you. 7:3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye? 7:4 Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and behold, the beam is in your own eye? 7:5 You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye.

So here we have Christian's thinking they are wise in the wisdom of God judging each others in the flesh something God said will not reform or build the flesh into a sinless person. It will not save them out of sin, and there is not one scriptural reference a Christian's can take that will allow them reformation of their sinful flesh without having their sins blot out by the sinless blood of Christ.

Ephesians 2:15 having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace;

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.

Thousand's of Years of Religious Reformation

Are you honest, are you a lover of truth? Thousand's of years of the very best religious teachers has not produced one sinless person upon earth that keeps living and does not die. Thousand's of years of Christian's proclaiming themselves faithful has not one has had a stamp (as sinless by their own works) of approval from God, what boasting in our flesh have we done?

Proverbs 20:6 Many men claim to be men of unfailing love, but who can find a faithful man?

Matthew 19:16 Behold, one came to him and said, "Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?"19:17 He said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."

Here we find a tree planted by religious reformation deceiving the flesh into all times unless God intervenes into human affairs. The flesh cannot know the truth a primary doctrine of Christ, flesh will plant flesh, and its reasoning will produce the fruit of false religions.
What are the fruit upon mankind religions? Good and evil? But how can that be, if Christ stated a good tree cannot produce bad fruit, who is lying?

Matthew 12:33 "Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.

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

The flesh can produce good and evil from the same mouth, the same heart claiming it is of Christ? Can God produce sin and life out of the same mouth? So whose planting do we have here?

James 1:16 Don't be deceived, my beloved brothers.
1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow. 1:18 Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures. 1:19 So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;

Being Made New

Do you want to be made new? This is not an option! It is a fact of finding Christ, it is the truth God himself tells us that he is making all things new, do you believe that or is mankind going to reform themselves our of good and bad fruit from sin?

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

Daniel 2:34 You saw until a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet that were of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. 2:35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken in pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them: and the stone that struck the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

Is a new creation part new, and part old? No! That thought is false religion if we are in the old we are dead to God, if we are in the new we are alive to God and Christ, why? Because one state is sin which is death and evil the lie, and the other state is the tree of life Christ Jesus without death or sin.

John 15:1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
15:2 Every branch in me that doesn't bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 15:3 You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 15:4 Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can't bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me. 15:5 I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

Whom do you belong too? Christ incoming kingdom is not about reform of our flesh, or the kingdoms of our world so they can be label Christ. Christ had the opportunity to have the kingdoms of our world and put his religious label upon them but he refused them!

Matt. 4:8 Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory.
4:9 He said to him, "I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me." 4:10 Then Jesus said to him, "Get behind me,{TR and NU read "Go away" instead of "Get behind me"} Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.'"{Deuteronomy 6:13}

We are no part of this world if indeed we have come out of the primary doctrine of Christ and Holy Spirit has made us new, into a new heavens and earth, where Christ righteousness dwells or we are dead. We have been raised in Christ onto God's mountain and we have learn war no more because we are not hating and judging in our flesh that is dead in Christ.

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.

2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we don't wage war according to the flesh;

Romans 8:7 because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God's law, neither indeed can it be.

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

Why would a Christian's wage war with flesh that is dead? Why would they think it is reformable when it is not? Why, because they are in the flesh and they see the flesh of others, and they think its their right too put it to death, by strong measure, what strong measure? Laws from the scriptures! Yes, the very thing God proved to Israel could not be done, by daily killing innocent animals time and again to redeemed them from the sin of their flesh, killing those transgression so they were not account against them.

1 Corinthians 6:16 Or don't you know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body? For, "The two," says he, "will become one flesh."{Genesis 2:24}

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

James 4:1 Where do wars and fightings among you come from? Don't they come from your pleasures that war in your members?
4:2 You lust, and don't have. You kill, covet, and can't obtain. You fight and make war. You don't have, because you don't ask.
4:3 You ask, and don't receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it for your pleasures.
4:4 You adulterers and adulteresses, don't you know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
4:5 Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously"? 4:6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."{Proverbs 3:34}

No! And Please no! Pray for your enemies in the flesh, for the flesh is opposed to those in Spirit, give good not evil, pray, and pray some more that God will given them truth and his love like he has us. Stop judging what is dead, stop planting that which will only produce its own kind, stop making yourself a lawgiver the Christ, come up to true light, be made new.

Jude 1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life. 1:22 On some have compassion, making a distinction, 1:23 and some save, snatching them out of the fire with fear, hating even the clothing stained by the flesh. 1:24 Now to him who is able to keep them{TR and NU read "you"} from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy, 1:25 to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.

Titus 3:1 Remind them to be in subjection to rulers and to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work,
3:2 to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all humility toward all men. 3:3 For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. 3:4 But when the kindness of God our Savior and his love toward mankind appeared, 3:5 not by works of righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
3:6 whom he poured out on us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior; 3:7 that, being justified by his grace, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

The harvest is near, have you experienced the baptism by fire that cleans up the lies of our fallen flesh and its works? There is a sword against the flesh Christ has draw from his mouth it will sweep away the refuge of a lie, the flesh, and all flesh will see it, all flesh will bow before Jehovah, flee to his mountain. Let the Spirit transform you into Spirit, giving you the personality of Christ without death or its sins, and you will be truly free.

Revelation 1:7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.

Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.

Zechariah 14:12 This will be the plague with which Yahweh will strike all the peoples who have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh will consume away while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will consume away in their sockets, and their tongue will consume away in their mouth.

Matthew 16:17 Jesus answered him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
