And then we come here and 26 00:02:21.439 --> 00:02:23.319 pick some of the lesson. If you are going to 27 00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:28.120 be the new man, you're going to be a good believer. Yes, 28 00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:31.479 let me use that. But the focus is on the 29 00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:35.159 construction of the new Man and then the demolition of 30 00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:40.199 the remnants of the old man. Now look at the message, 31 00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:42.800 he says, So if you are serious underlying. 32 00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:48.159 Haliah. 33 00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:54.039 So if you are serious about living, this news is 34 00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:59.719 resurrection life with Christ, act like it now you see, 35 00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:02.000 pursue the things. 36 00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:04.319 Over which Christ resides. 37 00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:10.840 Two, don't shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with 38 00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:14.400 the things right in front of you. Look up and 39 00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:19.120 be alet to what is going on around Christ. That's 40 00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:20.120 where the actually is. 41 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:25.800 See things from his perspective. Three. I like this one. 42 00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:30.120 Your old life is dead, your new life, which is 43 00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:32.280 your real life, even though. 44 00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:35.960 Invisible to spectators. And like that. He says that that's 45 00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:37.400 the mystery of godliness. 46 00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:40.039 Later on, you see, how are we being able to 47 00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:45.400 survive in the kingdom and still be believes and still continue. 48 00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:49.759 It's the mystery the Holy Spirit in us, the mystery 49 00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:52.960 of Godliness. Why we don't insult, why we don't and 50 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.159 do the poon, How we were able to break the 51 00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:58.520 pon the strangle of the porn life of our life. 52 00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:01.240 How we're able to get out of all those vices, 53 00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:05.680 the mystery the Holy Spirit and our co oppression, our 54 00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:10.400 tender to lectures and participating in everything, the life in 55 00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:15.360 the kingdom, even the school of the Spirit. My people 56 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.319 perish for lack of knowledge. With all that, getting get wisdom, 57 00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.519 get understanding. That is where it begins from. So if 58 00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:26.079 you're not doing your quiet time, well what kind of 59 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.600 knowledge are you basing on your running your You won't survive. 60 00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:36.199 You won't survive. Halenelujah. He said, your whole life is dead. 61 00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:38.800 Your new life, which is your real life, even though 62 00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:42.240 invisible to spectators, is with Christ in God. 63 00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:45.839 He is your life now. Verse four. 64 00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:50.800 He says, when Christ, your real life, remember, shows up 65 00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:56.240 again on this earth, you show up to the real you, 66 00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:03.519 the glorious you. Meanwhile, the content with obscurity like Christ. 67 00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:07.279 I wonder how message and interpreted it with this, because 68 00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:13.439 it's very key be content with obscurity like Christ. Let's 69 00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:15.600 pack a few lessons there, maybe the best one. Let's 70 00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:18.439 look at the best one, living the new life. Now, 71 00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:21.879 let's look at the NLT. It says, since you have 72 00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:27.160 been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights 73 00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:31.279 on the realities of heaven where Christ sits in the 74 00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:36.879 place of partner at God's writer. I just want to 75 00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:40.920 use them just three key things there that this verse 76 00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:46.360 talks about three things. T. Then someone say, God advice 77 00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.439 is for tea time. The tea is for think. 78 00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:51.120 Think. 79 00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:56.360 This school is for thinkers, say amen, and God will 80 00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:01.399 help us think the e this versus saying elevate for elevation. 81 00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:03.040 Amen. 82 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.959 Now you're going to think christ like thoughts. And then 83 00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:13.120 that a is for anticipate the rewards. 84 00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:17.680 Amen. So t time to think and to think. 85 00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:21.000 With God as I want eating, He says, what come, 86 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:25.959 and let us reason together. Though your sins are like scolored, 87 00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:28.959 they shall be as white as snow, and though they 88 00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:33.040 be as red as creams. God is a think And 89 00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:35.360 if you look at the guardian of eating, the creation 90 00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:39.560 of man. I always say that the first task that 91 00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:43.000 God assigned to Adam that we know of in the 92 00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:47.079 guardian of eating was a thinking process. It gave him 93 00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:51.759 the task and the assignment of giving and assigning names to. 94 00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:52.879 All the creation. 95 00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:56.279 God created them by He said, Sun, you know something 96 00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:58.600 I want to dot your your brains to. 97 00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:02.399 Don't your faith faie. 98 00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:07.720 He created us thinking as thinking beings. And so we 99 00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:12.639 find out that Adam was able to reason, think, make 100 00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:17.120 a distinction between all the plant and animals species, and 101 00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:22.199 give acceptable names to everything. That was a thinking pest, 102 00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:24.519 no doubt. At the end of it, it was very 103 00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:31.240 tired and lowly. Hallelujah. But this was an exhaustive exercise. Halleluiah. 104 00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:35.360 A man is the same thing you're going to survive 105 00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:37.240 in the school of the spirit. 106 00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:40.120 You're going to think. God is going to joke to 107 00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:41.920 you so that we can think. 108 00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:46.959 But the thing about the thinking is that, now let's 109 00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:49.759 look at the next thought. As I said, the e 110 00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:54.040 which is the elevator. It is not just the thing 111 00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:55.600 we're coming from the old man. 112 00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:56.920 Who the old man? 113 00:07:57.000 --> 00:07:59.600 You know the kind of thoughts that was inundating our 114 00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:03.240 minds and you had no control over them. 115 00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:03.879 Amen. 116 00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:08.000 And we know how that one happened when our first sperience. 117 00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:11.360 Can we look at that briefly, can we go to 118 00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:15.920 Genesis three. So once again, as we said, who are 119 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:19.680 you thinking with? Who are you holding those conversations with? 120 00:08:19.839 --> 00:08:24.560 Look at Genesis three. Look at Genesis three one to seven, 121 00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:30.920 the part that I likely says, did God actually say 122 00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:34.519 you shall not eat of any tree in the garden? 123 00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:39.799 Did God really say you must not eat the fruit. 124 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:41.720 From any of the trees? And then what is he 125 00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:42.600 trying to do that? 126 00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:46.559 Can you adam any you are behaving like robots? 127 00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:49.080 Can you start thinking? Did God say that? 128 00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:53.720 Now listen to the woman. And the woman said to 129 00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:56.320 the serpent, we may eat off the food of the 130 00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:57.240 trees in the god. 131 00:08:57.519 --> 00:09:00.399 But God said, you shall not eat of. 132 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.440 The tree of the tree, the fruit of the tree 133 00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:06.440 that is in the midst of the garden. Neither shall 134 00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:11.480 you touch it lest you die. And the serpent said, 135 00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:15.639 unto the woman, you shall not surely die, for God 136 00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:19.279 Dad knew that in the day that he eat thereof. 137 00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:20.639 Now listen to him. 138 00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:24.679 Then your eyes shall be opened, and he shall be 139 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:29.919 as God's knowing good and evil. And when the woman 140 00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:33.080 saw that the tree was good for food, and that 141 00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:36.200 it was pleasant to the eye, and a tree to 142 00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:40.240 be desired to make one wise. She took off the 143 00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:44.600 fruit thereof and did eat, and gave also on to 144 00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:48.159 her husband with her, and he did it. And the 145 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.039 eyes of them both were open, and they knew that 146 00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:56.679 they were naked. And then they sealed leaves together and 147 00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:58.519 made themselves aprons. 148 00:09:58.960 --> 00:09:59.399 Think him. 149 00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:03.039 That's where the serpent was able to get our faced, 150 00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:08.879 parients are that men? They went thinking or reasoning with 151 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:13.919 a serpent. And what was the result. Amen, The things 152 00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:16.000 that you put in the books that you are reading. 153 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:19.720 They cannot converse the people that you are holding conversations with. 154 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.159 But you are listening the arguments that they are making 155 00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:28.759 that you shouldn't pay types in church. You go to 156 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:32.759 church too much. You are praying too much. You are 157 00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:36.399 fasting too much when you know that there are things 158 00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:40.440 that need to be demolished in your life, and such 159 00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:43.559 the Bible says they do not go except by fasting 160 00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:44.360 and by praying. 161 00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:45.759 That is what Jesus said. 162 00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:49.759 Now you go ahead, and you are listening to opinion leaders. 163 00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:51.799 It doesn't matter where that they are in your hope. 164 00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:54.440 They say, first thing is not good for your health. 165 00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:58.720 And then because you know so, I went to my doctor, 166 00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:02.399 says actually did you think I ever advised any of 167 00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:08.039 my patience not too fast. It's a spiritual exercise, and 168 00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:11.080 not fast thing for fastings sake. It's a spiritual undertaking 169 00:11:12.039 --> 00:11:15.879 and it needs You need spiritual to combat and to 170 00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:20.720 confront the devil and to destroy the old man. You 171 00:11:21.440 --> 00:11:25.080 you love the old man, else you won't get fasting. 172 00:11:25.240 --> 00:11:30.000 A believer, You're being destroyed by the old man. You're 173 00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:32.720 all your mind, all your FoST and all things. It 174 00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:36.000 is only mimika. And when God examines your thoughts there 175 00:11:36.240 --> 00:11:40.399 ninety oh. And God has given us a tool to 176 00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:43.039 be able to vacount, and he said, no, I won't 177 00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:47.200 do it the word of God. Now let's look at 178 00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:51.039 some nineteen. What needs we need to be doing to 179 00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:55.720 shape Now listen, we saw what happened to Adam and Eve. 180 00:11:56.159 --> 00:12:01.440 Now listen to God in this world. I'm nineteen. Let's 181 00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.039 look at from seven to eleven. Let's look at seven 182 00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:07.159 to eleven where he zooms. He says, the law of 183 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:11.759 the Lord is perfect converting the soul. 184 00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:15.080 The testimony of the Lord is. 185 00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:20.679 Sure, making wise, the simple making wise. That all the 186 00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:23.159 Adam and even needed to do is that this is 187 00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:27.279 what Daddy said. That's all and not to go around reasoning. 188 00:12:27.720 --> 00:12:31.279 The Bible says that such comes not except by prayer 189 00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:35.159 and by first thing. So I'm going to first, I 190 00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:38.120 say that the liberties of the Lord, I am free, 191 00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:41.039 so that when I'm thinking now, I can think good 192 00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:45.399 thoughts and the devil can be prohibited from injecting me 193 00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:50.720 thoughts about anybody. Hey, you can't have those thoughts, you know, 194 00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:52.600 and be able to go on your knees and pray 195 00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:53.080 and sing. 196 00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:55.159 So sooner than later. 197 00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:58.080 In the school, he said, the goal is perfecting the 198 00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:00.399 stand us in the school of the Fairite. 199 00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:02.039 Dear, they are they are there. 200 00:13:02.320 --> 00:13:07.080 They are very high standards, no compromise from God, excellence, holiness, 201 00:13:08.080 --> 00:13:10.200 and he says, I will help you. That's why I've 202 00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:14.360 planted or taken residence in your heart the Holy Spirit. 203 00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:16.240 So the Holy. 204 00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:20.440 Spirit is now injecting you know, anger, conflicts, strife every 205 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:23.840 time into your heart, into your spirit, and then you 206 00:13:23.879 --> 00:13:27.840 are entertaining and cultivating it.

If you are spiritfuel, 208 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:32.519 that's not the kind of thoughts that you should be 209 00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:35.919 thinking about. So you see, the whole thing is about reasoning. 210 00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:39.559 It's certain an element of logic should come in. That's 211 00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:42.320 why God say, come and let us reason together. You 212 00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:45.399 won't change because you're won again. But nobody is seeing 213 00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:48.720 an itchy because you are not prepared to the same 214 00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:52.440 pool that test.

Now listen, he said. Moreover by 273 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.559 them is thy seven number one. 274 00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:12.319 Won't And in keeping of them, there's great reward. Why 275 00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:13.519 will go say? I won't? 276 00:17:14.279 --> 00:17:16.880 And that's why my tea the next one, the elevation, 277 00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:21.759 elevation of the kind of thoughts that we have, Harley 278 00:17:21.839 --> 00:17:26.200 louis a time to renew and elevate our thoughts concerning 279 00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.680 God and our world, so that we. 280 00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:31.400 Direct our thoughts having word. 281 00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:35.799 And this is done to motivate and challenge us for 282 00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:40.079 the efforts and energies needed to demolish the old man 283 00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:43.559 and construct the new man. Else the whole enterprise will 284 00:17:43.559 --> 00:17:45.680 become a for your school. Let me take it again. 285 00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:49.319 The reason why we must elevate our thoughts like this 286 00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:52.640 one and God is very very clear, very very clear. 287 00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:56.079 God never means his worse. He says, they are wanting 288 00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:59.960 that there is precepts. They will want us the pathway 289 00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:02.920 that you are going. Remember, we have already later setting 290 00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:07.000 from disting certain things. That's setting from the mentors that 291 00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:09.200 you get. When you are enrolled in the School of 292 00:18:09.240 --> 00:18:12.599 the Spirit and you are attending school and taking your lessons, 293 00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:14.960 you descend the voice of God. So when God is 294 00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:17.680 speaking to you, know that God is speaking to He 295 00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:20.200 said that I'm the good shepherd, and my. 296 00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:21.920 Sheep hear my voice. 297 00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:24.759 How can he guide you if you can't hear his voice? 298 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:27.160 How do you know that this is this is the 299 00:18:27.160 --> 00:18:30.640 Holy Spirit my rabbi teaching me, or this is the 300 00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:33.319 voice of Satan. If you don't come to school you know, 301 00:18:34.119 --> 00:18:37.559 and it's a whole. And Eve was tripped as God said. 302 00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:42.480 He said, no, he said that as for this treet dear, 303 00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:45.240 oh you won't he said that they will do it. 304 00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:48.079 You will die. He said, oh no, you won't die. 305 00:18:49.119 --> 00:18:52.400 You won't die, because God even knows that you become wiser. 306 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:55.799 So the same word of God, and then he twisted 307 00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:58.599 it a little bit. You see, the same thing as 308 00:18:58.640 --> 00:19:01.279 he did it to Jesus in these temptations in the world. 309 00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:02.599 And that's sati. 310 00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:05.720 The same word of God knows. 311 00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:09.079 And if you don't know that and descend the voice 312 00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:12.519 of God, and that's that's, that's that's that's. 313 00:19:12.279 --> 00:19:17.279 How come many of us who are having unable to 314 00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:21.400 demolish the old man and construct the new man. It's 315 00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:23.519 all because of that. That's what the word we are 316 00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:25.680 coming though. As for church we are coming though, that's 317 00:19:25.720 --> 00:19:28.119 for the preaching we are listening to. But now when 318 00:19:28.119 --> 00:19:30.920 we're finished, to say this one, it's not for me. 319 00:19:31.880 --> 00:19:33.799 It's for those who want to be past this. I mean, 320 00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:36.079 never seen that any instructions in the Word of God. 321 00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:39.000 That is for past us. It's for the sample art 322 00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:43.519 the obedience. When we started following the word of God. 323 00:19:43.559 --> 00:19:46.559 We are not past this. We are just sharing our tests. 324 00:19:46.559 --> 00:19:49.200 And that's what pastors do. That's why if you don't 325 00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:52.279 do it, you can't teach to do and to teach. 326 00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:56.000 If you're not validated it, you can't talk about it. 327 00:19:57.960 --> 00:19:58.359 Amen. 328 00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:02.119 The word of God is the same word for jagr students, 329 00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:07.319 for primary suit, for the CEO, for old men, anybody 330 00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:09.079 who comes to Christ is the same word. 331 00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:11.000 It's the same word. 332 00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:16.400 Know what a down word for anybody moreover by them 333 00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:18.000 is the seventh world. 334 00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:25.200 And in keeping of them there is great reward. Harlenluiah. Amen. 335 00:20:25.680 --> 00:20:30.799 Else, if you don't elevate your thoughts, renew them in 336 00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:34.519 the world, begin to reason with God, thing with God 337 00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:39.200 in the world. Listen to him, Listen to the teacher, 338 00:20:40.279 --> 00:20:45.839 have a very well structured quiet time, make time for God, five, ten, 339 00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:50.279 fifteen minutes.

You'll not be able to demolish. 343 00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:01.799 The old man. 344 00:21:02.880 --> 00:21:05.279 And the all is as for say it, and he 345 00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:09.720 comes to still kill and destroy. His intention is that 346 00:21:09.799 --> 00:21:15.599 you vacates the construction of the New Man, hallelujah. And 347 00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:19.039 then the third one we said is anticipate time, to 348 00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:23.440 anticipate and to convert the rewards and glories of heaven. 349 00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:29.000 Hallelujah.
