THE ENEMY IN-A-ME
dress it up, or clean it up, you, the real you is not a body. The body is that
which God had to clothe man with in order that man might enter into the
heart of Earth conditions, in a suitable form for earthly expression when man
was evicted from the Garden of Eden. I've heard it said by many theologians,
that God had to kill animals in order to clothe Adam and Eve, what it says is,
God made coats of skin, [Genesis 3:21] in other words, He gave them
esh, the same as other animals who were living on the earth, so that, they
could express themselves by means of words. You see, in the spirit realm
with God, there is no use or necessity for words. But in the earthly stage,
there had to be a form and substance that could be heard, seen, felt, smelled
and tasted, in order that their meaning could be clearly understood.
Look at all of the curses put on man for his disobedience in the garden,
multiplied sorrow, labor pain, hard labor in the elds, toiling for food, and
eventually death. [Genesis 3:15-19] Spirits do not have to eat, they don't have to
work, travail with child, or give up the ghost. You are a spirit, you have a soul,
and you live in a body.
The bible tells us that we were fearfully and wonderfully made in Gods'
Image and Likeness. [Genesis 1:26] We were created to be living messengers of
Gods' Will, His Word in the esh, where through us, could be expressed Love,
His Divine Creative Power. After man couldn’t get it right, it took Jesus to
come and be that example for us. He came to earth as a man in the esh
and His only task was to reconcile man back to God through Love.
The bible declares that God is a Spirit, [John 4:24] and since we were made in
His image and Likeness, that makes the real you, a spirit also. The bible tells
us that man was formed of elements of life substance, which it called the
dust of the ground. [Genesis 2:7] The quickening power within this dust
proceeded to attract to itself the necessary elements from the eternal
storehouse of Gods' Mind, with His Word (His Love) as the nucleus, the
center. This dust began to combine, form and shape man around it. Filling
man with Gods' Life Substance—His Consciousness—and endowing man
with all potentialities of His Being. And Being is de ned as expressing. We
were made perfect in the beginning; we were patterned after Gods' own
perfection. God created an organism, a human Being, capable of expressing
Him, and all of His Will, which means likewise all of His Power, His
Christ is the Healer
