Prisoner of Christ
I will live to the glory of God. If I die, then I could die to the glory of God.
There is only two elements that controls the human being. That's either doubt or faith, one or the other. You are possessed of one that dominates your life.
"For ye are written epistles, read of all men." If the Life that's in Christ be in you, you'll bear the Life that Christ bore.
If the Life that's in Christ be in you, you will have the kind of faith that Christ had here on earth. Christ's faith was based on the Word of His Heavenly Father.
When you’re a genuine Christian, you just bear the fruit of the Spirit. You don't manufacture it. You don't try to make it up. The sheep 🐑 does not manufacture wool. It bears wool and it does it because it's a sheep.
Our lives must fit with the Word, that the Word become flesh in us.
Jesus said, in Matthew 24th chapter, that "In the last days, the two spirits would be so close together till it would deceive the very elected if it was possible."
They're determined by their characteristic. Only can you know it by its characteristic.
The Scripture is Jesus Christ's identification! He had no fellowship card, He belonged to no organization. But God spoke of Him, that was His identification!
That's the genuine identification of God in any hour, is His identification. That's what it is, the Scripture that's promised made Identified by the characteristic of the promise which is God, and God is the Word. And the characteristic of that promise being Identified, that makes the believer.
There is two spirits. And one of them is the Holy Spirit; the other one is unholy spirit, and one is governed by that. And both of them religious. Now, yeah, that's the strange part, they're both religious. And just like Esau and Jacob was, both religious; like Cain and Abel was, both religious; like Judas and Jesus was. We see it today, both side, religious. The people die, but the spirit doesn't die. It goes right on, both religious.
Faith without works is dead; if you say, "I believe it," and don't make no act. Just like the Message, if you say, "I believe it," don't make an act, what good does it do? Noah went to work with his hammer 🛠 and built an ark. We have to go to work and prove our faith, by our works. Our works proves our faith.
Never try to mix the Word of God with the knowledge of the world. If you try to mix It, you will kill yourself with It. It will not work. It will not mix like oil and water.
The Word of God comes by the power of the Holy Spirit! "Not by power, by might, but by My Spirit," saith the Lord.
Churches says, "And we don't believe This, and we believe that." God will never judge the world by a church ⛪. He judges it by Jesus Christ, and Jesus is the Word. He will judge the Church by the Word.
If God's ordained you to do something, then He's your Protection. See, He will protect you. If He's sent you, He'll back up your word. You're an ambassador then"
