Be Transformed!

A changing of the mind or worldviews will never compare to the renewal of the mind through the work of the Holy Spirit. You may change your thought process and/or worldviews in either of two ways. There is no middle ground. The Prosperity gospel teaches you to change your thought process and you will see the difference in your life, while Paul teaches you to test and “that by testing you may discern the will of God.” Of course, we test all things according to the scriptures, which is the inspired word of God and not by our own understanding or twisted interpretation of what we desire the will of God to be.

Sooner or later we will give into one or the other. “Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey–whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?”. Romans 6:16 One, produces life and the other death, though by choosing the one which gives life may mean that your life now may end due to its opposition, depending on what part of the world you presently live in. However, in the long run life as we know it means nothing if life eternal is not ours to look forward to.

We can choose either a change toward depravity which is what we are often seeing publicized from the top of our rulers even in America to the least of us in our work place, local church and even our own homes or we can choose the regeneration which includes the less sought after perfect will of God, even by those who claim to be “Christians”.

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2

The Kingdom of God

Christ Himself declared that His Kingdom was not an earthly kingdom. Yet till this day though it isn’t an earthly kingdom there are some who find reason to fight for earthly possessions while preaching a gospel of word of faith & prosperity. (new age/pagan theology)

Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.” John 18:36

Clearly riches have nothing to do with holiness or proof of God rejoicing over anyone as their are Atheists that are far wealthier than many of Christians today. Being well off financially means nothing to the Kingdom of God!

“But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, So that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. Matt 5:44-45

For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Rom 14:17

For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. 2 Tim 3: 2-5

Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:24-25
