The importance of Spiritual understanding.
By: Colin Date: August 12, 2012, 9:56 pm

I see there is talk about Spiritual knowledge verses
relationship. I will put this in my own words and understanding
and as much as I hate using this phrase , ( it is my opinion )
It is, my opinion.
Jesus said in a time at judgement he would separate the sheep
from the goats. The wheat from the chaff. There is where he
said . so many would worship him but in vain. He said so many
would say they did things in his name and he told then, I tell
you the truth, I know you not.
How can we have a relationship with Jesus if we know him not
and what is this? Jesus is risen, he is not the flesh anymore,
if you take the things literally, you do not know Jesus, his
kingdom is not of this world. If your desire is about things and
for things of this world, it is to this world you belong. When
you ask and teach with the thoughts of the people of this world,
you speak with and idolatris mind and without spiritual
knowledge you mind is Idol, not growing spiritually.
Now some spiritual knowledge is being feed to the people and
people question its value. It is the only thing you can be saved
by, it is the teachings of the holy Spirit and discerned by him
which is to say , to understand the things spiritually is to
have a full manifestation of the word. It is to know God and his
son.
As for the old testament, the literal understanding of the
carnal mind speaks of God commanding his people to kill, even
animals and babes. It says God drowned the whole world and
people worshiping God that way are not worshiping God at all.
That is SATAN.
Jesus said the whole world would be deceived at this time and
the Spirit would be dead. That already happened and now the
Spirit is coming to us threw his teaching and you want to
compare them to the carnal mind and say that is knowing Jesus
and having a relationship with him. Absolute foolishness.
People want to go to heaven, you have to walk in the light,
the spiritual understanding is that light. It is the washing
your robes with the blood of Jesus, the baptism of the holy
spirit and the revealing of the truth. If you do not understand
the Spiritual teachings , Jesus has come upon you as a thief.
Without it you cannot cloth him , give him to drink, You cannot
give him to eat or visit him when he was imprisoned. The
literal is the darkness people imprison him in.
Without the spiritual understanding a man breaks every
commandment of God and his son's too.
If you want to believe hair makes a man strong or animals
talk and you believe that, you do not know the Lord, you do not
know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, you blaspheme the
Lord every time you speak.

[font=trebuchet ms]I don't see that we need one or the other;
having both are best.[/font]

[font=trebuchet ms]Would this include small children, the
mentally impaired, those who've never seen a Bible?[/font]
[font=trebuchet ms]Yes, I think it is good you added "in my
opinion" at the start of your post. ;)

Why can't we have both, because one is against God while the
other is with God. You cannot enter the kingdom with two eyes,
you must pluck one out. You cut off the hand that offends you.
You cannot have two masters. It is not God's will we live by
the sword. It is wrong to lie and deceive. The blind cannot lead
the blind, they will fall into a pit. The true church teaches
truth. You cannot keep committing Spiritual adultery. I can fill
this whole site with reasons.

[font=trebuchet ms]Colin,
Slow down. Relationship. Do you not have a relationship with
the Lord?
I'm getting a bit lost here. :(
I have a relationship with the Lord. Are we talking about the
same thing?
Relationship, as in a connection between myself and the Lord.
As in, He is with me. He hears me speak to Him. He teaches me.
He guides me in my study and in my life. He is my friend, my
king, my Savior. I am with Him and He is with me every minute
of every day.[/font]
