Anti-thesis “What is man?” Intentions of the “inner-man”John 7:17 “If anyone will to do His Will

he shall know concerning His Doctrine …”

 

John 15:7 “If you abide in Me and My words abide in you,

you will ask what you desire and it shall be done to you

by this My Father is glorified that you bear much fruit …”

 

The power to choose and decide ... that is to be redeemed

Having the capacity of a “free-will” and to understand good and evil

God loves our cooperation ... as we reach to summit’s height

of perfect “freedom” of the will ... hand in hand with Jesus

 

God’s Greatness is manifold in us. He won’t change us into robots.

He wants us to will obedience ... and move into His Desires

In redemption He laid the groundwork so we can listen by intuition

and not be controlled by remote ... but by love as He requires

 

The God of the entire universe ... and places far beyond

never forces man to be loyal to Him ... unless with man’s consent

Our God with all the power ... lets Himself be restricted

by a non encroachment ... of man’s free will to the end

 

Knowingly or not to us ... God has laws in motion

He will never break them neither the natural nor Holy

He may here and there in the teaching of his subjects

alter slightly the course of things to get man’s attention wholly

 

Redemption aggravates Satan more than any other subject

He devises many ways ... to recapture what he lost

Before regeneration the will ... was enslaved to him

and now he needs permission through deception at any cost

 

He temps, cheats and lies ... and never will give up

He needs our consent to do ... what he wants us too

He will appear as an angel of distorted light as such

Only the very elect know the difference between his guile and truth

 

Evil spirits cannot enter without cooperation of man’s will

And than only get as far ... as that will approves

God will never substitute ... His Will for that of man’s

for He holds man responsible ... in all that man will do

 

God works in such a different way than the deceiver Satan

God wants for man to be yielded to Him while going forth

He wants man to use every talent in cooperation with His Spirit

and rest upon Jesus for direction and His full support

 

Satan on the other hand demands total cessation

of man’s will and action that he may operate in his stead

Evil spirits want to enslave ... the fullness of a person

so he can be totally emptied out and be filled with Satan’s mess

 

Romans 6:16 “Do you not know, if you yield

yourself to anyone as obedient slaves you are

the slave of the one of whom you obeyed?”

 

God calls a man to choose actively and consciously do His Will

So that body, soul and spirit ... may be free indeed

Satan wants a puppet and forces man his way

to be manipulated by him and worship at  his feet

 

In a believers daily life many matters must be executed

God will not do these for them unless they are handed over

All must be surrendered ... to the indwelling Holy Spirit

so that He can arrange everything and God can move us over
