THE END TIME BELIEVER DOES NOT WALK AS UNREDEEMED SINFUL MEN

We are in the End Times.

The Believer has a DIVINE PURPOSE IN LIFE.

Walking in the CENTRE OF GOD’s WILL they have no condemnation.

When we walk according to the five senses we miss the CENTRE OF GOD’s WILL.

The Believer “.... walks by faith and not by sight.....”. ( 2 Corinthians 5 verse 7 ).

The Saints walk by faith and not by sight.

The Believer is not ruled by the five senses of see, taste , smell, touch and hear.

They have submitted themselves to the WORD OF GOD.

They are a new creation in Christ Jesus . ( 2 Corinthians 5 verse 17 ).

In Romans chapter 8 , the Apostle Paul says “...... 1 There is therefore now no condemnation to
them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.....”. (
Romans 8 verse 1 ).

The Apostle Paul was a sinner before he became a saint. In 1 Timothy Chapter 1 verses 14 to 16 )
the Apostle Paul writes that he was “...the chiefest of sinners....”.

“.....15 This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the
world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
16
However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all
longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life.....”.
( 1 Timothy 1 verse 14 to 16 ).

We all know before his conversion, that the Apostle Paul persecuted Christians.

He breathed out “..threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord..”. ( Acts 9 verse 1 ).

In Acts Chapter 9 verses 1 to 9 we read “....And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and
slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,
2
And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way,
whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.
3
And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him
a light from heaven:
4
And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest
thou me?

2
5
And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is
hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
6
And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord
said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
7
And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no
man.
8
And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they
led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.
9
And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.....”.

The Apostle Paul asked the question in Acts 9 verse 6 “....Lord, what wilt thou have me to do ?....”.

He wanted to know THE WILL OF GOD FOR HIS LIFE.

The Bible says when he asked the Lord the question “....Lord, what wilt thou have me to do ?....”.
The Bible says that “....And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be
told thee what thou must do....”.

When Paul by revelation understood the Gospel of the Kingdom, his heart was broken with
grief. He had walked as unredeemed man and persecuted the Church of the Living God in
the Name of Religion.

He had been religious . He had been zealous in his religion but walking as unredeemed
man.

The Lord had to get him off his high horse and humble him. ( Acts 9 verses 1 to 9 ).

The Lord had to get many of us off our high horses so that we could reach a point and like
Saul ( Paul ) say . “....Lord, what wilt thou have me to do ?....”. ( Acts 9 verse 6 ).

This great Apostle of God records his conversion from JUDAISM TO CHRISTIANITY.

God granted The Apostle Paul Grace.

He said “....I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10
Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in
distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong....”.

In The Apostle Paul said in 2 Corinthians 12 verse 1 to 12 :

“.....1 It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of
the Lord.

3
2
I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or
whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third
heaven.
3
And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God
knoweth;)
4
How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not
lawful for a man to utter.
5
Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.
6
For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I
forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he
heareth of me.
7
And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations,
there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should
be exalted above measure.
8
For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
9
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in
weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ
may rest upon me.
10
Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in
distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
11
I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been
commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be
nothing.
12
Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and
wonders, and mighty deeds. ....”. (2 Corinthians 12 verse 1 to 12 ).

The Great Kinsmen Redeemer has redeemed His children from the bondage of sin and corruption.

Satan trapped mankind into the dark prison of sin but the Great Kinsmen Redeemer broke the chains
of darkness and set us free from sin to live a life of victory and Holiness unto the LORD.

We are save d by His Grace and not by our works of righteousness.

God calls individuals to walk with Him. We can only walk with God when we walk by faith and
believe His Word and trust in Him .

When we walk with God , we do not lean to our own understanding. We look to His Word to shine
on the pathway of righteousness.

4
Step by Step we walk with God in the Rhythm of his Word.

Abiding in His Presence , we enter into His Rest.

Abiding in His Presence we realise our insufficiency in the Presence of the All Sufficient One.

Anointed with His Presence we have a peace that passeth all understanding.

To walk with God is a great privilege.

In the Garden of Eden , Adam and Eve had the great privilege of walking with God. They had
fellowship with the Creator of Heaven and Earth.

Sin in the Garden of Eden destroyed that fellowship.

When Adam and Eve had sinned in the Garden of Eden, they hid from the Presence of God.

They had sinned and their hearts were condemned.

Sin drives an individual away from the Presence of God. Sin separates man from God. Sin destroys
fellowship between God and man.

In Genesis Chapter 3 we read from verse 8 :

“.........8
And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day:
and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees
of the garden.
9
And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
10
And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I
hid myself.......”.( Genesis 2 verses 8 to 10 ).

“....THE VOICE OF THE LORD GOD WALKED IN THE COOL OF THE DAY.....” in the Garden of Eden .
( Genesis 2 verse 8 ).

Adam and Eve were no longer able to have free and open fellowship with God. There was sin in
their lives. They were spiritually dead.

They could not fellowship with God in “....spirit and in truth...”.( John 4 verse 24 ).

They could not walk with God .

They were out of step to the Rhythm of His Word.

They could not walk in the Path of Righteousness.

They could not abide in His Presence.

Sin separated man from God.

Man was created to have a body , a soul and a spirit.

5
When Adam sinned he died a spiritual death.

Since the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden , all mankind are born spiritually dead.
( Romans 3 verse 23 ; Romans 6 verse 23 ).

Mankind has five senses to contact the physical realm. The five senses are see, taste , smell, touch
and hear.

To contact the spiritual realm, man has the sixth sense , the sense of faith.

Cain was of the wicked one. ( 1 John 3 verse 12 ; also see Genesis 4 verses 1 to 15 ).

Abel lived by faith. Abel was not ruled by the five senses of see, taste , smell, touch and hear.

The Bible says that :“....By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by
which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he
being dead yet speaketh......”. ( Hebrews 11 verse 5 ).

Enoch lived by faith. Enoch was not ruled by the five senses of see, taste , smell, touch and
hear.

The Bible says that : “....5By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and
was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this
testimony, that he pleased God.
6
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe
that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. ( Hebrews 11 verses 5
and 6 ).

Israel in the wilderness after being delivered from bondage in Egypt were delivered by great
signs and wonders.

They followed the Pillar of Fire by day and the Pillar of Fire by Night.

They moved when the CLOUD OF GLORY moved and camped where the LORD led them.

We know the Biblical account. They ate manna in the wilderness. Drank water from the
ROCK. And THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST. ( 1 Corinthians 10 verse 1 to 13 ).

When they murmured in the wilderness and were bitten by the fiery serpents , Moses made
a brazen serpent and all they had to do was look and live. ( Numbers 21 verse 1 to 9 ).

“....... 1 And when king Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt in the south, heard tell that Israel
came by the way of the spies; then he fought against Israel, and took some of them
prisoners.
2
And Israel vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver this people
into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities.

6
3
And the LORD hearkened to the voice of Israel, and delivered up the Canaanites; and they
utterly destroyed them and their cities: and he called the name of the place Hormah.
4
And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way of the Red sea, to compass the land of
Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way.
5
And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up
out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and
our soul loatheth this light bread.
6
And the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much
people of Israel died.
7
Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken
against the LORD, and against thee; pray unto the LORD, that he take away the serpents
from us. And Moses prayed for the people.
8
And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it
shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
9
And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a
serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.....”. ( Numbers 21
verses 1 to 9 ).

Later on the BRASEN SERPENT BECAME A SNARE when some of the children of Israel began to lean
to their own understanding and trust in the flesh and let their five senses of see, taste , smell, touch
and hear rule them.

Some of them forgot the DIVINE MANIFESTATIONS OF GOD. They forgot the SUPERNATURAL.

Some of them became familiar with the MIRACULOUS. May God have mercy on me? May God have
mercy?

In 2 Kings 18 THE BRASEN SERPENT had become a snare. Some of the Children of Israel forgot the
DIVINE MANIFESTATIONS OF GOD.

Some of them forgot the supernatural recorded in the BIBLE of their Day.

The BRASEN SERPENT became a snare and KING HEZEKIAH DESTROYED IT.

Sometimes we forget who we are. We get SPIRITUAL AMNESIA. Like the PRODIGAL SON we forget
who we are.

We leave the father’s House and go to the FAR COUNTRY into SPIRITUAL WILDERNESS.

We place our souls in SPIRITUAL FAMINE.

We get carnal and WALK AS MEN.

Unredeemed mankind.

7
In the BACKSLIDDEN STATE Instead of walking by FAITH, we walk by sight.

In that state of SPIRITUAL AMNESIA we forget our DIVINE IDENTITY.

WE forget our DIVINE PURPOSE.

We get overcome by sin and guilt and condemnation but thank God the PRODIGAL SON came to
himself. He came to his right senses. “.... 17And when he came to himself, he said, How many
hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!

18
I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against
heaven, and before thee,
19
And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
20
And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw
him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
21
And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am
no more worthy to be called thy son.
22
But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a
ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
23
And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
24
For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to
be merry..........”. ( Luke 15 verse 17 to 24 ).

There was rejoicing.

But looked at the elder brother. He was not rejoicing.

He was ruled by the five senses. He was angry. He had a grudge against his brother. He had
no forgiveness. He wanted to drive his brother away. He had a bad attitude.

That’s why the Father made sure that the elder brother was not in WECOMING
COMMITTEE TO RECEIVE THE PRODIGAL SON.

The elder brother would have chased him away.

How many times do carnal saints injure the faith of the new converts.

We need to pray. We need to pray that God may truly convert us.

Change our hearts , change our attitudes , change our ways so that we do not offend anyone.

Help us Dear God. Amen and Amen.

8
“........ 25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he
heard musick and dancing.
26
And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
27
And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf,
because he hath received him safe and sound.
28
And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.
29
And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither
transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I
might make merry with my friends:
30
But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou
hast killed for him the fatted calf.
31
And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
32
It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is
alive again; and was lost, and is found.....”.

Thank God there is hope for the BACKSLIDER.

As long as there is Life there is hope.

THE PRODIGAL SON REURNED HOME AND received a warm welcome from His Father. ( See Luke 15
verse 11 to 32 ).

In Hebrews 11 verses 7 to 40 we read about the faith of Noah, of Abraham, of Jacob, of

Joseph, of Moses , of Rahab, of Gideon , of Barak , and of Samson and of Jephthae, of David ,
of Samuel and of the prophets.

Without faith it is impossible to please God. ( Hebrews 11 verse 6 ).

Adam was created in the IMAGE OF GOD. ( Genesis 1 verse 26 and 27 ).

Redeemed Mankind is a NEW CREATION IN CHRIST JESUS and manifest the ZOE LIFE AND
AGAPE LOVE OF GOD.

That is why the GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM must be preached to every Nation on earth.

The Bible is the BOOK OF LIFE.

The Bible is the WORD OF GOD from Genesis to Revelation.

9
The Bible tells mankind who he is , where he comes from and where he is going to.

All other religions do not tell mankind who they are or where they come from or where they
are going to.

In these last days there has been a great falling away from the faith. ( I Timothy 4 verses 1
to 5 ; 2 Timothy 3 verses 1 to 9 ; 2 Timothy 4 verses 1 to 5 ).

We look around and see Apostasy in ORGANIZED RELIGION. ( 1 Timothy 1 verse 1 to 5 ).

We look around and see Apostasy in DENOMINATIONAL CHURCHES. ( 1 Timothy 1 verse 1

to 5 ).

We see ICHABOD written on their DENOMINATIONAL CHURCH DOORS. ( 1 Samuel 4 verses

19 to 22 ).

We see demons invading the pulpit. We see people preaching doctrines of devils. ( 1
Timothy 1 verse 1 to 5 ).

We see people “....speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot
iron...”. ( 1 Timothy 1 verse 1 to 5 ).

The Apostle Paul said in Galatians chapter 1 says :

“.....6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ
unto another gospel:
7
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of
Christ.
8
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that
which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9
As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than
that ye have received, let him be accursed.
10
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I
should not be the servant of Christ.
11
But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12
For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus
Christ......”.

Every Religion has a founder.

Christianity is the ONLY TRUE RELIGION that can point to an empty tomb because the
founder of Christianity arose VICTORIOUS OVER DEATH ,HELL AND THE GRAVE.

10
All other religions , know that the founder of their religions died and were buried. If they
know where the tomb of their founder is they know that their founder was buried there.

Christianity is the ONLY TRUE RELIGION that can point to an empty tomb because the
founder of Christianity arose VICTORIOUS OVER DEATH ,HELL AND THE GRAVE.

The Apostle Paul said in 2 Corinthians Chapter 4 :

“.........1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;
2
But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor
handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending
ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
3
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the
light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
5
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for
Jesus' sake.
6
For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to
give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of
God, and not of us.
8
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
9
Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10
Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus
might be made manifest in our body.
11
For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of
Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
12
So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
13
We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore
have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
14
Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall
present us with you.
15
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving
of many redound to the glory of God.

11
16
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is
renewed day by day.
17
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding
and eternal weight of glory;
18
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for
the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.....”.

Among many of THE DIVINE ATTRIBUTES OF GOD , we know that :

“...GOD IS A SPIRIT AND THEY THAT WORSHIP HIM MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN
TRUTH....”. ( John 4 verse 24 ).

GOD IS LIFE. ( John 14 verse 6 ; John 17 verse 3 ; Romans 6 verse 6 verse 22 to 23 )

“...GOD IS LOVE. ...”. ( 1 John 4 verse 8 ).

“....GOD IS LIGHT AND IN HIM IS NO DARKNESS AT ALL....”. ( 1 John 1 verse 5 ).

The Apostle Paul said :

“.... 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;.....”. ( Romans 3 verse 23 ).

And in Romans 6 verse 23 the Apostle Paul said :

“..... 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our
Lord....”.

The Believer in the Word of God walks in the Light of the Revealed Word of God.

The Bible says that “..... But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and
more unto the perfect day.......”.( Proverbs 4 verse 18 ).

The next verse of Proverbs Chapter 4 verse 19 says :

“.....The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble......”.

The wicked stumble. The wicked walk in darkness. The wicked have strife. The wicked have
envy. The wicked have divisions.

The righteous do not stumble. The righteous walk in the light of the Revealed word of God.
The righteous have peace they do not have strife. The righteous are content with what they
have and don not covet their neighbours goods . The righteous have no envy. They do not
envy the wicked. The righteous have no divisions. They prefer one another and rejoice with
those that rejoice and weep with those that weep.

12
The Believer trusts in the Leadership of the “.....Shepherd and Bishop of our Souls.....”. ( 1 Peter 2
verse 25 ) . The Holy Ghost , the Spirit of Truth “.... will guide you into all truth....”. (John 16 verse
13 ).

Envying and strife are signs of carnality.

When an individual walks according to the dictates of his five senses then that individual is
carnal and walks in darkness like sinful unredeemed person .

The Apostle Paul was burdened and concerned about the spiritual condition of the Saints
at Corinth.

What would he say about the saints today ?

In 1 Corinthians chapter 3 verses 1 to 23 we read :

“............ 1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal,
even as unto babes in Christ.

2
I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it,
neither yet now are ye able.
3
For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions,
are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
4
For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
5
Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord
gave to every man?
6
I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
7
So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth
the increase.
8
Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own
reward according to his own labour.
9
For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.
10
According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid
the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth
thereupon.
11
For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12
Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay,
stubble;

13
13
Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be
revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
14
If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
15
If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet
so as by fire.
16
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17
If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy,
which temple ye are.
18
Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let
him become a fool, that he may be wise.
19
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise
in their own craftiness.
20
And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
21
Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your's;
22
Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or
things to come; all are your's;
23
And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.........”.

The Revelation of THE LORD JESUS CHRIST reveals to sinners saved by Grace that without
God we are so inadequate and so insufficient.

The Revelation of THE LORD JESUS CHRIST shines THE BRIGHT LIGHT OF GOD ON OUR
SOULS and shows the individual HOW GREAT GOD IS TO LOVE US WHEN WE WERE YET
SINNERS .

In Romans 5 verses 1 to 8 we read :

“..... 1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus
Christ:
2
By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in
hope of the glory of God.
3
And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh
patience;
4
And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

14
5
And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by
the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
6
For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some
would even dare to die.
8
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for
us.......”.

Believer’s walk in the Light . Believer’s walk in peace. Believer’s walk in the Love of God.
Believer’s are a manifestation of God’s Love to a lost and dying world.

Believer’s are AMBASSADOR’S FOR CHRIST.

Believer’s know about the power about FORGIVENESS.

Believer’s “....walk by faith and not by sight....”. ( 2 Corinthians 5 verse 7 ).

Believer’s know Christ in the “...POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION AND IN THE FELLOWSHIP
OF HIS SUFFERINGS...”.( Phillipians 3 verse 10 ; 1 Corinthians 2 verses 1 to 5 ; 2 Corinthians 5
verse 16 ).

In 2 Corinthians 5 verses 1 to 21 :

“..........For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a
building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2
For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from
heaven:
3
If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4
For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be
unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5
Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us
the earnest of the Spirit.
6
Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we
are absent from the Lord:
7
(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
8
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present
with the Lord.

15
9
Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the
things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
11
Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest
unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
12
For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our
behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in
heart.
13
For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your
cause.
14
For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then
were all dead:
15
And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves,
but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
16
Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known
Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away;
behold, all things are become new.
18
And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath
given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19
To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their
trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
20
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray
you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the
righteousness of God in him......”.
