What Sin Does May 26, 2006

Beverly Kirby, Conversations About God Mailing List May 9, 2006

With sin there is a mental and physical change. Sin does terrible thing to us. It is not just the act itself, the consequence of sin – the change of what we were originally created to be.
After Satan Rebelled: “Satan stood in amazement at his new condition.His happiness was gone…..Now all seemed changed, He was gloomy, despairing. strife, discord, and bitter recrimination were among them…Previous to their rebellion these things had been unknown in heaven. Satan now beheld the terrible _ results_ of his rebellion.”
These things mankind has inherited.
“Satan felt the wretchedness, the since of guilt, disappointment. The loss he had sustained seemed to much to be borne….a great change in his disposition., he manifested malice, increased hatred and fiery vehemence.
MORE THAN FORGIVENESS: Satan trembled as he views his work….His mighty frame shook as with a tempest. an angel from heaven was passing. He called him and asked for an interview with Christ. This was granted him. He then related to the Son of God that he repented of his rebellion and wished again the favor of God. He was willing to take the place God had previously assigned him, and be under His wise command. Christ wept at Satan’s woe but told him, as the mind of God, that he could never be received into heaven…..The seeds of rebellion were still within him….he had hopelessly
ruined not only himself but the host of angels also.
For Satan there was no remedy – it was not a matter of forgiveness. “He had hopelessly ruined not only himself but the host of angels also…”SR 26
“It would not have been safe to suffer any who united with Satan in his rebellion to continue to occupy heaven. They had learned the lesson of genuine rebellion against the unchangeable law of God, love) AND THIS IS INCURABLE.” SR 17
“The angels warned him what must be the CONSEQUENCES if he persisted.”" SR 16
(Story of Redemption: first three chapters)
We need a Physician saying “Healed” – not a court room written “Pardon”.
———————————————————————-
I have heard many times and read several times that we were all born “condemned” because of sin…. this I don’t believe.
It was not by choice that we were born. I don’t believe God says, “Well, here is another little one that I condemn!”
I believe we were born “brain damaged” – “sin damaged” “sin scarred “- not condemned. All our thought, reason, choices, worship, and selfishness happens in the brain. We will be ‘brain dead’ if we do not seek the Physician for healing.
Because of sin, Adam’s and Eve’s distrust of God and their fall, this caused their children to inherit the sin damage of selfishness and distrust.Born in sin, separated from God something happened in our brain/mind that was contrary to the original design of creation to cause us to be born “brain damaged” and so it has been inherited by all..
If you are born condemned you need to be acquitted – a legal act, justified for fear of retribution. If you are born with brain damage you need to be healed – a loving act, put back to the original design, a righteous act of healing the damage done.
“It is a law of the mind that it gradually adapts itself to the subjects upon which it is trained to dwell. If occupied with commonplace matter only, it will become dwarfed and enfeebled. if never required to grapple with difficult problems, it will after a time almost lost the power of growth. As an educating power the Bible is without a rival. In the word of God the mind finds subject for the deepest thought, the loftiest aspiration.” PP 596
“The brain nerves that connect with the whole system are the medium through which heaven communicated with man and affects the inmost life. Whatever hinders the circulation of the electric current in the nervous system, thus weakening the vital powers and lessen mental susceptibility, makes it more difficult to arouse the moral nature.” ED 209 Vol. 1 Mind character, & Personality
We have heard many stories telling us of the heartache we bring to God when we sin. We need more study of what sin actually does to us. This is what breaks the heart of God – what we are doing to ourselves. The unpardonable sin is that our minds/hearts are so sin-scarred that there is no remedy – not even from God. and He cries “Why? Why? Why will you die?
If you have any quotes or comments regarding what sin actually does to us, (not the remedy), I would like to hear them…

The Promise of God (Galatians 5:22-3) May 19, 2006
Posted by faith in Uncategorized.add a comment
God the Holy Spirit accomplishes all that He can in your life so that you will truly love others, and be filled with a deeply-rooted joy, to give you an enduring inner peace that will allow you to stand steadfast in the face of any suffering, hardship or adversity. You will be a kind and gentle spirit, full of goodness – in your thoughts and actions – gracious always and to everyone, being faithful to and having faith in others – you will never doubt. Only when God has taken charge over your heart, will you truly have charge (command/direction) over your life.
There is nothing (no law, no human) that could ever condemn you.

Simple Truisms in Life May 15, 2006
Posted by faith in life.comments closed
1. Live as though your life has meaning, as though you have a purpose (even if you don’t know what it is… yet!) — LIVE PASSIONATELY!
2. Make no excuses, and you will have no regrets. Play the cards you hold. No one has a perfect hand! Even if you hold one card, play the last card and God will give you more.
3. If you want a healthy mindset, do and think the things a healthy person would
4. There are no “I should be’s…” Only “I can be…” and “I will be…” and trust in the One who will get you there.
5. Don’t be an escapist. If there is something good that you think to do. Want to do it. Do it now! And don’t stop till it’s done. (To quote a famous motto: Just do it!)
6. Judge nothing and no one, especially not yourself and the people you love
7. Everyone is doing their best, some do better at it than others. Always assume the best. They are not the enemy. They just don’t understand. Being misunderstood is par for the course.
8. You will survive. When your world falls apart. Stop and realise that things are essentially still the same now as they were before things went wrong. It’s alright, you’re alright, it’s going to be alright! Declare to your problems: “I don’t care if it looks like everything is an utter failure. It is not the case/not true!” Rocks don’t care when the wave hits them.
9. Your life is not all about you. (Don’t sulk, don’t whine, and always be honest to yourself. If you’re not satisfied with your life, you’re dissatisfied with what God is doing in it.) Open yourself up to people, and your eyes to the world. There’s much more to life… get out there and find it.
10. You don’t have entitlement to anything. All that you have is a blessing. Not even your next heartbeat comes from your own effort – even your next breath is not in your control. Be grateful for it. Don’t expect things as though they have been earned. You will only be disappointed when you are not treated as you think you should. Trust the Lord to provide all you need. It is God’s problem to look after you!
11. You are always loved by all the people who matter (and about everyone else, it doesn’t matter). And you’ll be surprised, you’ll find more people love you than you ever imagined.
12. Don’t let your emotions dictate how you live — more often than not they drag you down vicious cycles (wherever they want you to go). Take charge of your life and the emotions will look after themselves. What you are as a person is determined by how you act when it hurts. No baby has ever been born without pain. And after he or she is born, the pain is forgotten.
13. Speak truth only and always, words which are a delight to the soul. In what you say bring joy, happiness and peace to those around you. You will be the “seasoning of the soul” in their lives.
14. “Mattering” is a privilege of a few. And perhaps only the arrogant and self-deluded think they matter. Just life a blessed life, and be a blessing to others.
16. Life’s too short to be complicated.
17. IT starts NOW! (If you won’t even try to do it today, how can you expect to be able to do it tomorrow?) And it can last forever, if you let it!
Good luck and God bless.

Who gets the Holy Spirit? May 5, 2006
Posted by faith in Uncategorized.add a comment
Acts 5:32
We are God’s witnesses that these things occurred; and the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those that OBEY him, is also evidence.
God gives the Holy Spirit to those who are willing to listen to the Spirit and do what He instructs them to do.
Hebrews 4:15-17 May 5, 2006

“For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tried in every way like we are, yet never sinned. Let us, then, come close with joyful boldness to the “throne of grace”, where we may receive mercy, and find grace to help us in our times of need.”
Our “Chief Counsel” (advocate) in heaven feels our desperation, because he too has been afflicted with trials in every way, just like we are; and yet He never sinned. So we, in our helplessness, should be encouraged; and be drawn, by his tenderness towards us and sympathy for us, to God’s “throne of grace” with the sure knowledge that we will recieve all the mercy and grace we require in all our times of need.
