The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from

the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, he cannot understand

them, because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual person makes

judgements about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man’s

judgement:

” For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?”

But we have the mind of Christ.”

(I. Corinthians 2.14-16).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father

of our Lord Jesus Christ,

From Whom the whole family in heaven and

earth is named,

That He would grant you, according to the

riches of His glory,

to be strengthened with might through His Spirit

in the inner man,

That Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith;

that you, being rooted and grounded in love.

May be able to comprehend with all the saints

what is the width

and length and depth and height-

To know the love of Christ which passes knowledge;

that you

may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Now to Him Who is able to do exceedingly abundantly

above all that we ask or think, according to the power

that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by

Christ Jesus to all generations,

forever and ever. AMEN!”

(Ephesians 3.14-21).

Do you not perceive that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

(Romans 2.4)

It is God’s goodness and kindness that leads you to repentance.

Not our exceptional intelligence, brilliance or insight.

Not our mystical, spiritual or religious background or standing.

Not our strong will-power, discipline, intense prayer or fasting.

Not our achievements, wisdom or energy.

It is God’s goodness and kindness alone which leads you to repentance

from dead works. This is an absolute miracle.

At one point our unrighteousness and ungodliness becomes clear to us.

We realize like Job did when he encountered God in fear and trembling

how much we need God’s imputed righteousness. The righteousness of

Jesus Christ is credited to us when we totally believe and trust Him.

We conclude that God is true and everyone has sinned and come short

of the glory of God. We realize with awe and fear and trembling how much

we need His grace. We are saved by His grace alone and the faith we obtain

is totally His gift. God’s forbearance and long-suffering lead us to repent.

With humility and endless debt of gratitude we receive His most precious gift.

There is nothing better than abiding in His Presence and basking in His love.

We continue to praise Him for His indescribable gift.

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

So this I say and solemnly testify in the name of the Lord as in His

presence, that you must no longer live as the heathen do in their

perverseness, in the folly, vanity and emptiness of their souls and

the futility of their minds.

Their moral understanding is darkened and their reasoning is clouded.

They are alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is

deep-seated in them, due to their hardness of heart.

(Ephesians 4. 17 and 18).

POINTS FOR MEDITATION AND PRAISE

1) Those alienated from the life of God are unable to understand

the truth and waste their minds and lives in fruitless and futile

pursuits, thus extending their emptiness and folly.

2) St. Paul is solemnly and soberly is warning believers to avoid

the pitfalls of ignorant living with the spiritual blindness that is

natural.

3) This spiritual blindness is directly related to their hardness of heart.

This insensitivity results in clouded thinking and irrational behavior.

4) True spirituality results from being reborn of the Holy Spirit.

PRAISE TO OUR LORD JESUS WHO HAS RESCUED US FROM THIS

IRRATIONAL AND FUTILE EXISTENCE.

TRUE SPIRITUALITY

But the fruit of the Spirit is

love, joy,peace, longsuffering,

kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

Gentleness,self-control.

Against such there is no law.

And those who are Christ’s have

crucified the flesh with its passions

and desires.

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk

in the Spirit.

( Galatians 5.22-25).

THOUGHTS FOR MEDITATION

Please meditate on the following thoughts:

1) The Holy Spirit places His character

in us.

2) This is how we display God’s attributes.

3) God’s attributes are irresistible and

highly attractive.

4) The fruit of the Holy Spirit displays

true spirituality.
