SELF – flesh and spirit

June 5, 2019

So should Prince Harry have said “Meghan and I have had a baby boy”. Harry did not say I he said myself. So “myself” is that a bad word? Self is bad. Self and selfish go together.

Humans are self or spirit. Oh yes humans are both spirit and self. What is better to be, self or spirit? Self is the flesh, spirit is the spiritual. What does God want us to be? God is Spirit and wants us to be spiritual. We can be good spiritual or evil spirit. There is evil spirit of Satan. There is the Dragon and the snakes. The truly wise who choose spirit choose God. Fools choose Satan. Satan a fool? He’s not clever to try and take God’s place.

In my younger days in Christ I was confronted with my inner flesh self. This flesh self was/is in my heart. Maybe being a Prophet of God has its benefits to me in many ways besides also benefitting other people in Christ’s Body. I see, prophets see, they have insight. So I see and God shows me things to see. I saw my self in my heart. My self was flesh and not a nice picture. God has shown me many other things in my Christian life. God shows me things to see, especially when I am going through a bad patch. I see and know. There are benefits to having a gift of insight. I call it insight or is it wisdom. Does the Spirit of wisdom reveal things to me? I don’t know. I saw my flesh self in my heart that is definite I do not lie. So I have a self person of me in the heart. I also have a human spirit of me in the heart. I struggle to be spiritual trying to be led by spirit with Spirit (God) and not flesh self. I have the Holy Spirit in my heart. I want to be led overall by Spirit of God (Holy Spirit). My human spirit is yoked (metaphorically) to the Holy Spirit. My human spirit learns from Gods Spirit.

How do we not depend on flesh self but spirit and ultimately Spirit (God)? There is only one way to be spiritual of God, we must die to self. This self in flesh in the heart must die. Jesus paved the way showing the way to heaven. We die to flesh self and live for spirit and Spirit. We feed our spirit not flesh self. Our self is spirit. Our flesh self is sinful and like Jesus dies. Jesus died to his flesh, we die to our flesh.

Harry said “Meghan and myself had a baby boy”. Is saying I any better? Is Harry a spiritual man? Most people in this world are selfish. Just about all young people are selfish. It is hard to be spiritual of God. Self is flesh and flesh is about sins. Spirit can be sin too but that is dark spiritual things. God is light and to be spiritual of God is to be in the light. It is foolish to want to be in the dark spiritually. Satan is the losers side. Satan lost when he tried to take God’s place in heaven.

Most people are selfish. It is hard to try and be spiritual of God. People do try and be spiritual of God. Not many try. The world is no proper place to be spiritual of God. The world is a cess pool of evil. To be overly righteous is not wise and to be overly evil is not wise. We can not walk around being like robots of good or evil. We sin and we do good. Spiritual people please God more than selfish people.

Sex can be so selfish. Can spiritual people of God have sex? Of course, sex is natural. Sex is spiritual. Most people have sex for flesh self. Sex was ordained to have children, that is obvious as we see other creatures have sex. A Godly purpose of humans is to have sex to have children. We humans find purpose and meaning in having family. Sex is not selfish when it’s purpose is to have children. But humans are consumed with lust. Children are born in sin. I am no different, I lust. Lust is prevalent in the Body of Christ. So people should have their spouse. I was born in sin. Children born to Christian parents who profess Christ and are saved can bring children in to this world clean. Otherwise people are part of the “great unwashed” and living in sin and unrepentant. Dirty parents, dirty nest, dirty children. Generational sins come down the family line. Only the blood of Jesus Christ washes away sins. I am “Born Again”. Nicodemus a Jewish teacher and member of the Sanhedrin went to Jesus. Jesus said to Nicodemus “You have to be born again”. What go back in to my mother’s womb and be born again; Nicodemus did not understand. Jesus scoffed at Nicodemus, you are a great teacher but you don’t understand. The Prodigal Son story that Jesus spoke about had two sons of a father. One son went away with his fathers inheritance and whored a warred. The other son stayed at home behaving himself and working hard. Who was this son who stayed at home? The other son that was lost and found, the prodigal son, he was the born again son. According to this story not everyone in the Body of Christ is born again. In the generational line people do stay with God. Children born of Christian parents or who grow up in Godly homes full of God light and cleanliness can be the son that stayed at home and did not whore and war. But Jesus Christ saves the soul and those souls saved by Jesus are not judged by God on the Judgement Day.

The prodigal son was flesh selfish. But he came home to God and became Spiritual of God. People do see the errors of their ways and repent to God. Whoring is selfish. Warring is selfish. Most sex is selfish. Lust is selfish. We are all guilty of lust, me too.

We can either be flesh selfish or Spiritual, or we can be both. God wants us to be Spiritual. Don’t feed the flesh self in the heart feed the human spirit in the heart, feed off Gods Words. The saved of Christ receive the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit comes in to the heart. But where does the Holy Spirit come from? Mars? The moon? Jupiter? Pluto? We humans understand little about the brain, we hardly know anything about it. We the saved get Spiritual gifts. The Holy Spirit gives the saved Spiritual gifts. These gifts are in the heart and are used for the helping of the whole Body of Christ. If you are saved you are in the universal Body of Christ. It’s a mystery about people being in a one universal body. We are each a part of this Body and we commune together. This body of Christ and it’s inner Kingdom of God is not understood flesh wise but only in Spirit to spirit. Spiritual matters is utter nonsense to the non spiritual people. Only spiritual people can understand Spirit. Flesh people only understand flesh not Spirit.

So where does the Holy Spirit come from? Above yes but where above? Are we spirit in the heart and to be spiritual do we learn to spirit? Is our soul saved above?

The Catholic Pope is with his top Cardinals at the Vatican. Cameras live are focussed on the Pope and his entourage. The Pope is being beamed live over television to the entire world. NASA have sent a rocket in to outer space, two astronauts are on board. One astronaut has been doing a space walk earlier on and fixed loud speakers to the outer fuselage of the rocket capsule. The whole world is watching, cameras with acoustics are live streaming back to earth in conjunction with the live streaming of the Pope and his Cardinals.

Is it ready?

Copy Houston.

We have you.

You are live Your Eminence. Please begin.

Greetings God. I am Pope Francis the First Shepherd in Apostolic line to Apostle Peter. God we need your help, the planet earth is becoming a rubbish heap, people have lost the way.

Excuse me your Eminence we have to butt in here.

Houston here Sky One is the voice going out loud enough over the outside speakers.

All good Houston.

Carry on your Eminence.

God please help our planet. Progress is killing this planet. We humans are going artificial this and artificial that, the world is losing its true connection to spirit we are all becoming fairies without tapping in to the Spirit of God. We are a planet people worshipping other humans and Mother Nature. God God talk to me!!!

The Cardinals look agitated. The Pope is God’s top representative and God is ignoring him. It does not look good. People might think that the Pope has lost favour with God. Everything is impinging on God talking back this could end the relevance of the Roman Catholic Church to the world’s people. A Cardinal sees the eyes of the Pope. There is fear in his eyes. The Pope does not know what to do. The people surely think God will talk to the Pope. The Pope whispers to his chief Cardinal “What shall I do”? The Cardinal has an idea, he whispers back “Faint”. “What”? “Faint”. “But”. “Do it”. The Pope faints. The world is shocked. People all over the world see the Pope faint. The Pope has fallen to the ground. “What now the Pope whispers”? “It’s okay” the chief Cardinal says to the cameras “The Pope has been slain in the Spirit. The Pope has seen God”. The Pope smiles and is helped to his feet. The world’s people are over joyed. “God has spoken to me”. The people watching the live streaming are quiet. People are wanting to know what God said to the Pope. The chief Cardinal whispers to the Pope ”Say something you are the Pope God has to talk to you”. “God said He loves us all and to have faith”.

Houston.

Yes Sky One.

We are losing our connection with you.

Copy Sky One.

That wraps it up for now.

An applause goes out over the world. The Cameras stop rolling.

So does the Pope and his Cardinals hope to be sent in to outer space sometime to meet God? Is God in outer space? Does the Holy Spirit come in to our hearts from outer space? People build their ivory towers up there trying to reach the heavens. People in the past built the Tower of Babel to reach God, now people build rockets to get up there. Will everything come falling down like a building made with a pack of cards? Man builds on flesh self not through Spirit to spirit. The heart needs a strong foundation. Jesus Christ is the strong foundation for our hearts. We need strong hearts not weak hearts. Fools build their houses out of a pack of cards. The wolf comes and blows down those cards. The wolf can not blow down a house made by Jesus Christ. We must be tapped in to God in our heart. We don’t want to be up with the fairies. There is self and there is self. Self to me is human spirit in heart “born again” of God. The other self the flesh one in my heart dies. I die to live. The seed dies. The spirit grows from death. The seed dies and gives life.

THE CONCLAVE

August 20, 2018

Pre conclave meeting

Five Cardinals were chatting together in a lounge room in the Vatican

I think Caruthers would make a fine Pope

I agree but Dominic is a better choice

No I disagree with you both

What then?

That North American Cardinal Rivers is up to the job

No he’s too American

And?

We need to keep it closer to the heart

And where’s that?

Nearby

Where?

European

I guess you are right

What about Poldark

No he’s British

But is not British European

No, British is British

Look what about Simpson

He’s British

Yes but only half and he lives in Italy

Half what?

His Father was Italian his mother British

But he’s too simple

I know but I like him

We all like him, but simple?

He’s kept his simple faith what’s wrong with that?

But simple?

The bell goes

It’s time gentlemen

They all walk to the door then a long a long corridor. The other Cardinals join them and they walk in to a big room called the Sistine Chapel. The doors are locked behind them.

In the conclave

The Cardinals now have to choose the next Pope. The Cardinals are each “thinking” to themselves:

I like Moses but he’s so pompous

Rivers might be okay but he’s always scheming

I don’t know who to vote I think Roberts might be up to the job but he’s always going on about money

Hickey might do but he is such a snob

Hocking is okay but he’s always giving off airs of importance

I can not stand them all except maybe Simpson

Simpson is so simple but he’s very intelligent he’s a bright light

I don’t know who to vote, Simpson is simple he carries the simple faith well

This is so complicated I see so much wrong with the choices

Seven days later and no Pope yet voted. Many votes were taken but there was no real winner

Gentlemen Cardinals we must make the final vote this time, please decide

Oh who shall I vote?

Vote who?

I don’t know

Gentlemen cast your votes

Keep it simple

It’s too complicated I need something simple

Simpson is simple he’s intelligent and simple he’s got a real simple faith he’s kept true to his simple faith

Gentlemen decide

There Simpson it’s the simple choice

Simpson has kept his simple faith this is the simple truth I must go with the simple truth

All votes in, counting begins

Gentlemen the clear winner is Simpson

The simple truth wins

The simple truth is the head that should rule

Jesus Christ is the simple truth

The Mind of Jesus Christ is the simple truth

The Spirit of Jesus Christ is the simple truth

The Mind of Jesus Christ.

Yours Sincerely; Lester John Murray.
