The Choice
And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. - Genesis 2:9
Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever” - Genesis 3:22
So He drove out the man; and He placed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life. - Genesis 3:24
Jesus said to him, “I AM the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE. No one comes to the Father except through Me. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.” - John 14:6-7
Spiritual Warfare
Your free will is your ability to choose who or what has authority over your identity, being, and existence.
Spiritual warfare is fought within your mind through thoughts.
Jesus Christ as authority is the only way to being made whole and living fulfilled life both on this earth and eternally.
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. - 2 Corinthians 10:3-6
The Way
With every thought, you will either:
1. Choose I AM - Tree of Life (Good/Jesus)
2. Reject I AM - Tree of Death (Evil/Flesh/Self)
The fruit of the tree you choose will be the reward or consequence you can expect as an outcome of your free will choice.
For “who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ. - 1 Corinthians 2:16
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. - Ephesians 6:12
The Truth
The authority you chose influences what you believe and represent. This representation is the foundation of your identity, being, and existence.
What you adopt into your heart as truth is what defines your, morals, character, and experience through shaping how you perceive God, self, others, and the world around you.
But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth, - 2 Thessalonians 2:13
“He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” But this He
But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth, - 2 Thessalonians 2:13
“He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. - John 7:38-39
The Life
How you live is an image that reveals the authority and your beliefs through your speech, behavior, and lifestyle.
Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. - 1 John 3:7
The Fruit
The fruit (Good/Life or Evil/Death) of the authority you represent, and reveal is now ready for harvest.
Outside of Jesus Christ as the authority, you will be left wanting and searching for fulfillment.
With Jesus Christ as the authority, you will be made whole finding true and complete fulfillment in life on earth and eternally.
Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that t
Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. - Galatians 5:19-21
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. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another. - Galatians 5:22-26
