Now that we have an overview of the triune being, that is us, and have a better idea of what the role of each part is, we can investigate even more and gain an even better understanding. Fortunately confirming or disproving basic doctrines is not all that difficult as...

God blew of His Spirit into the nostrils of Adam and Adam was considered a living soul. We have now seen that it is confirmed elsewhere in the word, new and Old Testament, that it is the Spirit that gives life. But there is more to it, in fact if man has of the Spirit...

Now that we have seen that it is the Spirit of God that gives life and that without the Spirit we are considered dead it is time to address a doctrine concerning this. This is a crucial doctrine and also very dangerous. If not understood correctly it could cost you...

When Adam and Eve died spiritually we all died. When Jesus laid down His Soul on the cross we received a means of gaining life once again. 1 Cor 15 45           And so it is written, "The first man Adam became a living...

By now we have a clearer picture of the Spirit. How it gives life and how without it we are dead. We know that we have to walk in spirit or put differently we have to obey the Spirit in or by faith. We have seen that when we believe on the Son we receive of the Spirit...

Looking closer at the soul and its role in walking in spirit with God, we realised that the soul is determined by what we partake of. We either do nothing and continue on in the fleshly nature, or we transform our soul by walking or partaking of the Spirit of God...

When believers confuse the difference between spirit and soul they unknowingly adopt strange doctrines that sound good and true but are far from right. You see Jesus came not only to give us a new spirit but also to save our souls. Remember it goes like this. First we...

Today we need to recap everything we have learned so far on our journey. In a relatively short time we have managed to discover a lot of truth, and we also dispelled some dubious doctrines. If you are anything like me you probably forget most of it by now so this...

So our soul needs to transform by listening and doing what the Spirit tells it to do. It does that by faith. Without faith the soul will not obey because transforming is difficult. Why exactly is it difficult and why would the soul not obey unless it has faith?...

Continuing on the topic of dying to self we have to understand the principle of the “why” aspect of it. As we have seen that our old man or old fleshly nature has been in control of our souls since birth. For the soul to partake of the new spiritual nature the old...

The soul that does not transform dies. We receive a new spirit from the Lord that leads us to transform. Obedience to that new spirit is transformation. That new spirit gives us the new nature, the new righteous nature. It gives us God’s righteousness because it is of...

Continuing with the soul we have to look at another principle that Jesus taught. In fact it wasn’t only taught by Jesus but by others as well. Jesus said: Luke 6 43           "For a good tree does not bear bad fruit,...

The previous time we looked at how Jesus said we were all thorn trees that bore thorns. We became fruit trees when we believed and now we have to bear fruit according to the new spirit we received from Him. Because a righteous person bears righteousness. This process...

The Lord in His infinite wisdom gave us the perfect analogy in the bible to let us understand exactly how our souls are to operate. How our souls are to partake of the Spirit of God and not our fleshly nature. When we partake of the Spirit of God or obey Him, we...

Let’s just recap. We saw that the garden that God planted was the soul of the man Adam. In the midst of the soul/garden were two trees. Of one Adam could partake freely and of the other not. It was the one commandment of God, that is, Adam was not allowed to partake...

When Adam and Eve ate of the tree (lifestyle) of flesh or knowledge of good and evil they realized they were naked. What exactly does that mean? It means that they had no righteousness to cover them. See when they ate of the flesh tree they died a spiritual death and...

When Adam and Eve ate of the flesh tree or the tree of knowledge of good and evil they died spiritually. But that’s not the only thing that happened. Something else happened as well. Their conscience painfully became aware. Previously they had no righteousness and...

Only the pure of heart will see God. That means only people with a clear conscience, undefiled un-seared and not evil in any way will see God. Matthew 5 8              Blessed are the pure in heart, For...

We have learned that our conscience can be seared, weak and defiled. Also, our conscience cannot be cleared by the blood of animals, hence the need for the blood of the Messiah. But today I want to focus on the defiled or evil conscience. What it means and what is its...

Today we are going to look at a concept that is very important but is widely misunderstood. It concerns the name change of Jacob. Why, and what are the implications and why it is important to us. Genesis 32...

Israel in the flesh is our example in the spirit. Whatever happened to Israel and still happens to Israel in the flesh must happen to every believer. Israel, although a nation, symbolizes every believer as an individual. Every believer will be called out of Egypt...

Ever since I can remember people have been telling me I can be whatever I want to be. In school it was all about building a future, setting goals and having high ambitions. To become all that you can become. Everybody constructing their lives based on their long term...

God is absolutely sovereign. That means that nothing happens without His say so. No one and no “thing” can happen without God knowing. But it means more than that. It means that everything that does happen, God, allows to happen. This then is where a lot of confusion...

By now we know that God is Spirit and wants us to serve Him in Spirit. We know that we are His temple and He wants to rule and reign in His temple as King and God. This was clearly pictured in the garden of Eden which was the man Adam's soul. In Adam's soul, God...

Continuing with the Seven Spirits of God we are going to look at each of the Spirits individually. Previously we spoke at length about the main Spirit called the Word which is represented by the main or middle branch of the Menorah. We learned of the Seven Spirits of...
