The Stealing of God!

Matthew 24:43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

So what is it about us human's that we want to take God's position? Of course, none of us would admit to such blasphemy, but our not admitting to something does not make it untrue!

John 10:1 "Most certainly, I tell you, one who doesn't enter by the door into the sheep fold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

You see, there is an ancient saying we uses all the time to excuse and justify our flawed human behavior, we call it “human nature”. Human nature means we are born into this world, we want recognition and each of us start into a course for it, and if we are worth our salt, we will obtain to some measure of recognition in our life time.

If we are religious we think by our successes and sometime failure that we can explain to others is how God is speaking and looking at our world. Yet, there is very little we can reveal about God, but our human nature is tenacious in deceiving us that we can speak for God by our experiences.

HUMAN NATURE BORN TO DECIEVE

Can corruption reveal incorruption? Not really, although our nature tells we can. Herein, lay's the problem, the great lie that has mislead the entire world since before and after Christ was on earth.

Corruption cannot reveal incorruption. God is incorruptible there is no darkness in him, he is perfect light that has never alter or changed, nor is he able to die!

We on the other hand, are born into darkness and corruption, which corruption eventually gets us causing our death, we die from corruption, and/or what our bibles call sin.

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.

You see, here is a fundamental truth of God, God reveal himself to mankind, God does not need us to reveal anything to him! We then are limited to our understanding of God. How limited? Will frankly, we are limited to the exact amount God has reveal to us about himself.

Matthew 11:27 All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.

The deception in our (human nature under sin) where we think we can reveal the truth of God to others by what we think God has reveal too us!

But this is a flawed premise, why? Because God reveals the truth to humans by his Spirit, however, knowledge is dispensed by the human will power doesn't at all mean it from God's will. And that is a vast difference between light and darkness, what is revealed by man is man's found in corruption; corruption does not reveal God who is incorruptible.

Passing on knowledge is a great thing to help us get along in our human nature, but there is no end to this type of knowledge on earth. However, this is not the knowledge that God reveals to those he loves by his Spirit.

Ecclesiastes 12:12 Furthermore, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.

1 Corinthians 8:1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

Subsequently, that is why Christ stated while on earth to God's people the Jews that they search the scriptures, but they did not have the truth, and/or they would not come to the truth, which is stated clearly in the bible, was and is Christ. They refused Christ by human knowledge of what they thought had been revealed too them by God through the scriptures the same scriptures Christ used to correct them with, but they didn't know the truth was in their mist.

John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

John.5:38 You don't have his word living in you; because you don't believe him whom he sent. 5:39 "You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me. 5:40 Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

How could such a thing happen? It happen because of their human nature, which caused them to believed they had earned a right to God mind by struggling and working to gain knowledge of God through their own human efforts.

Romans 4:4 Now to him who works, the reward is not counted as grace, but as debt.

The recognition of men and those in authority made them elite among men. However, Christ was rejected by the teachers of Israel being held in contempt by them.

When Christ explained the truth of scriptures by the Spirit in him from God it cause the flesh, that is, the so called teachers of God word had hatred against Christ.

Gal.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.

Their disrespect for truth and Spirit permeated them just as did the yeast in their teachings. They wanted self superiority over Spirit and truth. They wanted a name and the flatter of men over the glory of God which was the Christ, God's son on earth!

John 7:7 The world can't hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

Why? Because corruption can't inherit incorruption, corruption cannot reveal God. Corruption believes by its emotions and feelings of goodness that such come from God's working in them; so much so, they believed God was just like them, so they demanded his respect and dignity and when not given the evil corruption of their own hearts exposed then as no more than a sinner. Yes, sinner whom they thought they were better than by their teaching. Revealing they wanted to kill and/or destroy the enemy - Christ. Such human nature was hidden by niceties in acting like a godly person to the other fleshly men and woman. But one cannot hid truth from the Spirit!

Job 20:27 The heavens shall reveal his iniquity. The earth shall rise up against him.

Despite the politically correctness of their words hidden in their heart the truth is revealed that the flesh is against the Spirit, it is opposed to the Spirit and hates it with contempt! Light cannot reside with darkness the two are opposed since the birth of sin into God's creation that is the message from the beginning.
1 John 1:5 This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

What Christ spoke they could not hear, and what they spoke the Spirit rejected even if it were from the scriptures. Hence, the repeating of words from the scriptures is not the truth God reveals, it is an act of self-righteousness, eye service, by our human nature under sin, it is used to impress fleshly people that walk by sight having a form of godly devotion in their flesh, but proves false from having the Christ in them the real power of truth and God's kingdom; Spirit of God always reveals the darkness in us to be a lie!

Romans 1:25 who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

The love of God is not us, the love of God, is Christ Jesus, revealed too us by Spirit, and truth, for Christ is God's truth.

God's word never says we are the love of God, so why do some many Christian's try to act like they are the love of God to mankind? Because they seek the glory of men rather than the glory of God! Yes, they believe their love for God makes them God's love, and because of that followers owe them the respect God should get.
They fail the primary test for Christian's which is, God's love is given freely and they themselves have no title to it, because they have done nothing worthy to earn God's love. Yet, they believe and teach their hard work earned them God's love which is a lie of the flesh.

Romans 4:2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not toward God.

1 Corinthians 4:7 For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn't receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

That Spirit of God's love teaching his children all things of the Spirit freely, but not the flesh. The flesh cannot reveal or teach God's children anything, it can repeat and condemn God's children, but it cannot love them because they are no part of this world.

The flesh seeks glory for itself, in every way and in every form it cannot act differently.

Knowledge from incorruption cannot plant seeds of the Spirit, just like weeds cannot make themselves into wheat by a study of scriptures. It is the Spirit that feeds the truth too wheat children of God; who are planted not by the will of man, but the will of God, which means in layman terms; by God's Spirit that creates all things new as God's Spirit said must come truth its is only when all things new (created by the Spirit of God) will creation be faithful and true, but not the old planting of the flesh by Satan hands.

John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

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.

In other words, the food of this world is knowledge that's feed all weeds who feed each other; weeds feeding weeds is the life blood of weeds on this earth in their human nature of flesh born into corruption until its death! They are in every way a part of this world even if they read the scriptures they will digested them and feed them too support the power of the flesh translated into yeast of world thoughts not of Spirit and truth.

Matthew 15:11 That which enters into the mouth doesn't defile the man; but that which proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man."
James 3:6 And the tongue is a fire. The world of iniquity among our members is the tongue, which defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature, and is set on fire by Gehenna.{or, Hell}

The Spirit translates all things into the love of God; the kingdom of the Son love.

Mankind wittingly or unwittingly steals the glory of God, living a lie, by acting through fleshly knowledge of the scriptures in what they flesh perceives a Christian's to look like and act like. Its is an ugly thing and a painful truth which the apostle Paul stated of himself that nothing good dwelt in his flesh, or we could says: “nothing good dwell in corruption, that corruption of our flesh cannot inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Corinthians 15:50 Now I say this, brothers,{The word for "brothers" here and where context allows may also be correctly translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."} that flesh and blood can't inherit the Kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.

Romans 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.

That act and/or self-glory is their reward on earth, in wanting the glory of men more than the glory of God found in heaven in the name of Jesus Christ!

Simply put, they choose to live a lie that God is them by their flesh, and by their works in justifying themselves by do's and don't thus, making them worthy of glory from other false Christian's like themselves in their flesh. This is their kingdom, they have reveal it too themselves by their good efforts, and it is those efforts that redeems them to God for their good motives.

2 Corinthians 10:12 For we are not bold to number or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But they themselves, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves with themselves, are without understanding.

They refuse to come all the way to the light in seeing the truth of God that nothing good dwells in corruption, that is, our flesh. They choose the wide road of man's approval in a false religion and they than make it their life's goal to teach and make disciples of the flesh so their disciples enter into a false kingdom of idol worship on earth in the flesh. They seek an appearance of righteousness in their flesh making it more important than Christ righteousness, which they can't understand because it must be reveal to them from heaven! They find themselves in endless painful pursuit chasing the rainbow of works for merit the gold at the end of this life.

John 6:28 They said therefore to him, "What must we do, that we may work the works of God?"

Romans 9:11 For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls.

Romans 11:6 And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

Rom.10:2 For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
10:3 For being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they didn't subject themselves to the righteousness of God.

They have stolen in every form God's glory and put it into man's glory just like weeds that steal the power from soil for the grass without a conscious let alone an acknowledgment that weeds are not the planting of home owner.

The habitual act of gaining knowledge by hard work, then teaching it to others is the entire power of this world found in corruption permeated into all parts of government, religion, and business, but it is not the truth revealed to God's children that creates all things new in Spirit and truth. It is rather the self-effort of the power of the flesh that steal God's word lying about old corruption as new flesh, which is a Babylonish prostitute a false kingdom where the demon are lurking in much flesh.

John 8:23 He said to them, "You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.

John 9:39 Jesus said, "I came into this world for judgment, that those who don't see may see; and that those who see may become blind."

John 15:19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

John 16:28 I came out from the Father, and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world, and go to the Father."

1 Corinthians 2:6 We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown; yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing.

1 Corinthians 2:12 But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.

James 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.

1 John 2:15 Don't love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father's love isn't in him.

1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn't the Father's, but is the world's.

1 John 2:17 The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God's will remains forever.
