Chapter 2

Man’s Captivity to the Nature of the Spirit of this World.

I was considering what the Lord had said to me about the spirit of this world, and how that spirit has alienated man from having fellowship with God and how it has separated man from God’s love.  I could not help but wonder what is this spirit of the world? How what kind of affect has it had on the lives of men? I was considering and asking these questions of the Lord when he quickened to me that which is written in Isaiah 11:2 “And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him; the spirit of wisdom and understanding; the spirit of counsel and might; and the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.” I I then began to why the Lord would quickened this verse to me when I had asked him about the spirit of this world. Then the Lord had reminded me of that which he had previously revealed to me, that these six spirits, accompanied with the spirit of truth, are that seven spirits that the Spirit of the Lord consists of. Though it is only one spirit, it consists of all seven of these spirits; and the Lord has given the gift of his spirit to all those who he calls so that he may reveal all truth to them about God, and his son Jesus Christ; the truth that they are one in love. The work of his spirit is to reconcile each one us unto God, to deliver us from the heart and mind that is of this world; the heart and mind that is an enemy of God because of the ignorance, doubt, rebellion, unbelief, reasoning, fear, hesitation, and pride that opposes God that dwells in us. There is no love for God in any such like thoughts as these. Is it possible for the Lord to win over a heart that regards it’s doubts, it’s pride, it’s unbelief, and it’s reasonings against God to be righteous thinking? 

 Colossians 1:20-22 “And having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth or things in heaven. And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now has he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight.”

 I was still wondering why the Lord had brought to my attention that there were seven different spirits that the spirit of the Lord consists of when all of a sudden, the Lord began bringing into my remembrance the names of some of the wicked spirits that he had recently revealed their names to either me or some other of my brethren. I was meditating on the names of these wicked spirits when all of sudden the Lord enlightened my  understanding to comprehend that just as there are seven different spirits that make up the spirit of the Lord, so also are their seven different wicked spirits that this wicked spirit consists of. But what spirit? Was it the spirit of darkness, or the spirit of antichrist? I then asked the Lord what was the spirit that consisted of these seven spirits. The Lord answered and said, “These seven spirits are that which that which the spirit of this world consists of; and those who are born of this world are the children of this world because they walk after the senses of the spirit of this world. Just as I have given to each of you the Spirit of the Lord to reconcile you into fellowship with God, so also does the spirit of this world work in its attempts to keep you alienated from any relationship with God and separated from his love.”

 John 1:10,11 “He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world did not know him. He came to his own, and his own did not receive Him.”

 Ephesians 2:1-3 “And you has he made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in times past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, in the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience: among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.”

 Ephesians 4:17,18 “This I say therefore and testify in the Lord, that you henceforth no longer walk as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them because of the blindness of their heart.”

 I Corinthians 1:9-14 “But as it is written, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him.” But God has revealed them to us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man, except the spirit of man which is in him? Even so, the things of God knows no man, but the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God so that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God; which things we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches, but that which the Holy Spirit teaches; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him; and neither can he know them because they are spiritually discerned.

 I John 1:1-4 “That which was from the beginning (the life of God‘s love manifested in Christ Jesus), which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life—the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us—that which we have seen and heard we declare to you so that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things we write to you so that your joy may be full.”

 I John 4:4-6 “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them (the spirits of this world), because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world (the spirits of this world). They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.” 

 The Lord said to me, “No man can possess the spirit of this world without be possessed by the seven unclean spirits that the spirit of this world consists of; for the spirit of this world cannot exist as the spirit of this world without having all seven of these unclean spirits within it. No man can be made free from anyone of these unclean spirits without being made free from all seven of them; and no man can be made free from all seven of them unless he is first willing to die to the identities of all seven of these spirits. The spirit of this world is not the spirit of life that God breathed into Adam, but rather it is the spirit of sin and death that entered into Adam and Eve after they freely chose to eat the lies of Satan. It was then that the spirit of life departed from them, and the spirit of this world entered into them that they became alienated from having daily fellowship with God and separated from the blessings of his love. Satan sought to deceive Adam and Eve with his lies for this very purpose because he lusted to have them. As the god of this world, he brought forth the spirit of this world into their heart and mind, as he also did in all their seed, so that by it’s senses that might serve him through the nature of sin and death. It is Satan that has deceived the whole world into believing that the nature of sin and death is him nature, when in truth, it is nature of the spirit of this world. Human nature is that nature that God created in Adam before he fell, when the spirit of life dwelled in his heart and mind. By the spirit of life, Adam fulfilled the purpose that God had created man, to be friends with God, to walk in fellowship with God, and to be a recipient of God’s love and care. It is this uncorrupted nature is the real human nature that was created by God.   

 Revelation 12:9 “So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”

 All who are born into this world are conceived in sin and brought forth to work iniquity, because it is the nature of the spirit of this world to do so. As the senses of the spirit of this world is, so also are the senses in the children of this world. As the desires of the spirit of this world is, so also is the desires in the children of this world. As is the seeing and hearing is in the spirit of this world, so also is the seeing and the hearing in the children of this world. As are the feelings and emotions that are in the spirit of this world, so also are the feelings and emotions in the children of this world. As is the thinking that is of the spirit of this world, so also is the thinking in the children of this world. As the spirit of this world speaks, so also do the children of this world speak. Those who are of this world, they speak the things that are of this world, and the world hears and understands them. As the spirit of this world is alienated from all fellowship with God and separated from his love, so also are the children of this world alienated from all fellowship with God and separated from his love. It is through these senses that the spirit of this world deceives man into believing that his nature is human nature; but it is a lie, for the fallen nature of man is not human at all, but rather it is the nature of the beast that was formed in the womb. That which is natural to the beast is that which is natural to fallen man because they are one and the same.

 Psalm 51:5 “Behold, I was shaped in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceive me.”

 Romans 5:12 “Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because all sinned.”

 I John 2:15-17 “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world -- the desires of the flesh, the desires of the eyes, and the pride of life -- is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.”

 Beast: inhuman

 Ecclesiastes 3:18 “I said in my heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them so that they might see that they themselves are beasts.”

 1 John 4:5-6 “They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”

 John 8:43 Jesus said, “Why do you not understand my speech? Is not because you cannot hear my word? You are of your father the Devil, and the desires of your father you will do….”

 The spirit of this world is the spirit that all of the children of this world are born with. It is the spirit has joined itself to the soul of man by making it’s senses to one with man because it deceives man into believing that it’s senses are human nature. Only my word, that word that proceeds out of my mouth of God, has the power to separate a man’s soul from the spirit of this world. Except a man give himself to me, and offer his life to me, that life that he has lived as slave to the senses of the spirit of this world, shall a man be made free from that fallen nature that has kept him captive to this world; living a life that has been alienated from fellowship with God and separated from God’s love. These now are the seven unclean spirits, the kings and rulers of this world that have ruled over all of the senses of the children of this world, and there purpose is not only to keep the children of this world captive to their senses, but to keep them ignorant of the truth of God; the truth that sets men from the beast nature of the spirit of this world. 

 I John 2:15-17 “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world -- the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life -- is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.”

 Romans 8:13-14 “For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.”

 The will of the god of this world is also is the will of the spirit of this world; and the will of the spirit of this world is also the will of the children of this world, as well as the will of all those that I have called that have continued to walk after the ungodly senses that are of this world. As the will of the god of this world is to be independent of God, so also is the will of the children of this world. It is also the will and desire of each one of these unclean spirits, and the legions of other unclean spirits they bring with them, to continue to keep man independent, alienated from having fellowship with God and separated from his love. Man was created by the will of God for one purpose: to be partakers of his love and his fellowship. The adversary seeks and labors to take it away. Do not be afraid, for I have given to you power over all unclean spirits: the power to lay down your life that is of this world, and the power to take it up again by my spirit. I have given you power so you know longer are forced to bow the knee of your heart to believe and obey these ungodly spirits. Remember this, that though they may seem to be many, there are still far more that are with you than there are against you.

 Mark 6:7 “And he called to him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and he gave them power over unclean spirits.”

 John 10:17 “Therefore my Father loves me because I lay down my life that I may take it again. No one takes it from me (his free choice), but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from my Father."

 I Corinthians 15:36 “You fool, do you not know that what you sow is not made alive unless it dies?”

 Galatians 5:24 “Those who are Christ have crucified the flesh of it’s affections and desires.”

 Romans 8:2 “For the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.”

 I John 5:4,5 “For whatsoever is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?”

 Consider this: Immani is the name of that unclean spirit of fear; but there are many, many different kinds of fear, and though the character of them may differ from another, they  all seek to trouble your mind with their anxieties and worries. This is only a part of the will that the god of this world seeks to enslave you to. There is entire world within, and the strength of the world within is seen in the will and the desires that the spirit of this world keeps your heart and thoughts captive to walk after. To those who of the world, they walk after the senses of the spirit of this world. Those who are of God, they have taken up their crosses and crucified the world within of it’s senses and desires. These are they who have been set free to walk according to the senses of life that is in the Spirit of Christ Jesus. Remember the word that says, “Do not marvel that I said you must be born again; for that spirit of life that is born of God is well able to overcome the spirit of sin and death that is of this world. But you must die first before you can live because it is impossible for a man to have two masters.” Only by the Spirit of the life in Christ Jesus can a man mortify the deeds of sin and death that come forth through the nature of the spirit of this world.”

 II Timothy 2:24-26 “And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle to all men, apt to teach, patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves (the spirit of this world); if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth so that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the Devil, who are taken captive by him to do his will.”

 John 8:44 “You are of your father the Devil, and the desires of your father you will do…”

 I John 2:15-17 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides for ever. Little children, it is the last time: and as you have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.”

 James 4:4-6 “Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit who dwells in us desires to envy”? But he gives more grace. Therefore he says, “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

 These now are the seven unclean spirits of this world that the Lord has revealed that the spirit of this world consists of. Everyone of us should be well acquainted with them seeing that we thought that we have all thought this is what human nature consisted of; the very senses that we have all walked according to in times past.

 Beelzebub: the spirit of pride  I asked the Lord long ago to judge the spirit of pride that was in me so that I could clearly see how this spirit might be working in me. I asked the Lord judge this pride, which is for me asking him to open my eyes to see clearly see it because the scripture that says, “God resists the proud but gives more grace to the humble.” I did not want anything in my heart or mind that could come between me and the Lord. When the Lord began to judge this pride for me, this is what he said, “Pride is the love and consciousness of “Self“, and it is always mindful of “Self” first. Pride absolutely loves being it’s own lord and god so that it can do it’s own will, walk in it’s own ways, do that which his right in it’s own eyes, and speak the words that it wants to speak. Pride has no desire to submit itself to God because it loves being it’s independence from God. Pride loves it’s own glory, it’s own exaltation, it’s own recognition, it’s own fame, and it’s own praise. The spirit of Beelzebub, manifest as the pride in man, loves to show itself to be as God when it tries to take control over the situations and circumstances that arise in one’s own life. It is pride that loves to show itself to be righteous and good by the works that it accomplishes of itself. Pride always loves to be right in all that which it says and all that it does, and it is always ready to contend with any and all that disagree with that which it sees and believes to be right and good.

 Proverbs 16:5 “Everyone proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord.”

 All unwillingness to submit to God comes forth from the pride of Beelzebub. Pride hates correction because it loves the image that it has made for itself. Pride hates correction, but it loves self-justification because through the works of self-justification, it is able to make right all of it’s works, all of it’s decisions, all of it’s ways, and all of it’s opinions. Pride loves self gain and hates to lose any anything that it possesses, especially any kind of loss to it’s self-image. Correction is a loss of life to the pride of Beelzebub, but through self-justification, Beelzebub is able to hide it’s sins, it’s faults, it’s weaknesses, and it’s errors. The pride of Beelzebub is envious and jealous when it sees others possessing that which it desires to have for itself. Pride loves to sit in God’s seat, in the seat of judgment, declaring that which it believes to be good and evil, and judging all others accordingly. Pride loves to be self-sufficient, and hates to have any need for help, especially from God. It is for this reason that God resists the proud because pride is a nature of the spirit of this world that contends with God; and it has no desire for anything that can come from God.

 Proverbs 13:10 “Only by pride comes contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.”

 James 4:4-5 “You adulterers and adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Do you think that the scripture says in vain, “The spirit that dwells in us lusts to envy?”

 Man is so accustomed and familiar to living his life according to the senses and desires of the spirit of this world that that he cannot comprehend that there can even exist a form of life that does not have “Self” at the center of it. It is Beelzebub that occupies the mind of man to keep his mind conscious and focused on “Self” through such thoughts as self-glory, self-condemnation, self-sufficiency, self-protection, self-consciousness, self-gratification, self-esteem, self-exaltation, self-righteousness, self pleasures, self-reliance, self-reputation, self-preservation, self-defense, self-control, self-justification, self-motivation, self-denial, self-help, self-deprecation, self-expression, self-importance, self-confidence, self-interest, self-will, self-dependency, self-trust, self-pity, self-promotion, self gain, self-recognition, self desires, self-indulgence, self-regard, self-opinionated, self-discipline, self-devotion, self-complacent, self-image, self-assured, self-made, self-worship, self-improvement, self-respect, self-identity, self-seeker, self-taught, and of course, self-love. Beelzebub has the carnal mind of man so occupied with “Self” thoughts that man is not even able to comprehend any other kind of life form that does not have “Self” at the center of it’s thoughts. After the Lord showed me all of these different “Self” thoughts, he then reminded me that which he said to the prophet Isaiah, ‘Your thoughts are not my thoughts.”

 Isaiah 55:7-9 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”

 Psalm 94:11 “The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.”

 Romans 8:5-8 “For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.”

 The love and consciousness of “Self” is that part of the corrupted nature of this world that comes forth from the senses of the spirit of Beelzebub. For as the spirit of the world is contrary to the Spirit of God, so also is there no fellowship between the self-love of Beelzebub and the love of God that thinks not of self. As the thoughts of one are strange to the other, so also are the thoughts of other strange to the one. In this fallen world of darkness, life is only accounted to be good as long as one is able to satisfy his “Self” desires. The proud are never able to see the sins of pride as evil because it cannot see anything that is natural to itself to be evil. The proud never confesses it’s weaknesses or it’s sins before the Lord because to do so would mean that Beelzebub would suffer loss. The proud never ask for help nor does it ever admit that it is wrong because Beelzebub does not see that it is right to do so. Those who walk in pride, they see as Beelzebub sees, they hear as Beelzebub hears, they feel as Beelzebub feels, they have the same emotions as Beelzebub has, they desire what Beelzebub desires, they think what Beelzebub thinks, and they speak as Beelzebub speaks. This is the course of this world that all of the children of this world walk in. When that which is right in the sight of Beelzebub is the seeing that is right in a man, then that soul is made one with the uncleanness of that spirit. It is that righteousness that makes a man unclean in the sight of God. An eye for eye?

 2 Timothy 3:1-2 “But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves….”

 Ephesians 2:1-3 “And you who he has made alive (unto God), who were dead in trespasses and sins; wherein in time past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience: among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

 Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.”

 Immani: the spirit of fear  I used to think that pride was the most powerful of all these unclean spirits, and without a doubt, pride greatly motivates the children of this world. But from that which I have seen in my own heart, there is no spirit rules, and controls, and oppresses man like spirit Immani does. Even the definition of its name implies so.

 Immani: (the feminine form of Immane): huge, enormous, monstrous in character, brutal, frightful, inhumane, cruel, savage, and dreadful.

 The scriptures themselves testify that fear is an unclean spirit, and not a part of human nature. The first evidence that Immani had taken up it’s reign over the heart and mind of man can be seen when Adam and Eve hid themselves from God after they fell; and it was the spirit of Immani in them that led them to do so. Even though God himself was with them when the spies saw the giants in the promise land, it was Immani that led them to believe that they could not take the land because they saw the giants through the senses of this world. When Goliath appeared, Immani led all of the armies of God to cower in fear. When Peter was pointed out as being one of Jesus’ disciples, it was Immani that led him to deny that he had ever known him. When Ananias and Sapphira sold their possessions, it was Immani that led them to hold back a part of that which they had sworn to give. Immani is so great in power that in certain situations, it is even able to paralyze a man with it’s terror. Many times when God spoke through his prophets, and Jesus spoke to his disciples, he opened with the exhortation, “Do not be afraid”; for he knew that Immani was in control of the senses of those who see that it was right to submit to his fears.

 II Timothy 1:7 “For God has not given to us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

 Romans 8:15 “You have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, “Abba, Father.”

 It is Immani that leads men to be fearful of what others think of them. It is Immani that leads men to fear death as well as anything that is unknown. It is Immani that is fearful of that which it cannot understand or comprehend. It is Immani that fears not being right. It is Immani that is afraid when circumstances and situations arise that go beyond the control of self (sickness; marriage problems; job loss, etc.). The fruits of Immani are clearly seen in all who walk in fear through their stress, their nervousness, their panic, their phobias, their worries, their terror, their paranoia, and their anxieties. You shall know them by their fruits, for all those who walk in fear walk according to the fruit of Immani’s senses; for they see, they hear, they feel, they think, and they speak as Immani does. It is Immani that fears the truth for what the truth will expose about the spirit of this world, that it is not human nature but the beast nature. Immani is always afraid and fearful because that it is what it does by nature. When that which is right in the sight of Immani is that which is right in the seeing of a man, then that soul becomes one with the uncleanness of that spirit, and that righteousness makes a man unclean in the sight of God.  There is no fear in God. There is no fear in love. God is love, and there is no fear in the seeing of his eyes, and neither is there any fear in any of the senses of those who have been perfected in love. An eye for an eye?

 Romans 8: “For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, “Abba, Father”.

 Psalm 34:4 “I sought the Lord, and he heard me (crying our Abba, Father for deliverance), and delivered me from all my fears.”

 I John 4:18 “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love.”

 Shadow: the spirit that prophesies evil  Shadow is basically the little brother of Immani in that they both have the same fearful nature. While Immani is fearful and afraid of the here and now, shadow fearful and afraid of things in the future. It is this fearful nature that dreads what the future may bring, whether it be that which may come in hour, or in a day, or a year, that defines Shadow’s nature. Shadow is the false prophetic voice that speaks in the minds of men that the “worst case scenario” is that which is coming. It is Shadow’s senses that led the children of Israel to cry out at the Red Sea saying, “The Lord has brought us out of Egypt so that we could die in the wilderness.” While the word of God has promised us that God will work all things together for good for those who love him, Shadow is the voice of lies that always seeks to overthrow that word with the counsels that dreads that which is to come. Shadow loves to use the past to predict the future in that it loves to prophesy that the events of the future should be dreaded because they will come to past in same manner as the past failures, pains, disappointments, sins, mistakes, sufferings, and losses did. It is Shadow that mocks the promise of God’s word, prophesying against his words saying, “Where is the promise of his coming? Where is the promise that all things work together for good? Where is the promise of his abundant life and his glory? For all continue to walk today as they walked yesterday, and they will surely continue to walk in the same dreads of tomorrow also.”  

 II Peter 3:3-4 “Know this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own desires (Shadow’s desire) saying, “Where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

 Romans 7:15-20 “For that which I do, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not; but that which I hate, that I do. If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) dwells nothing good; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I do. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.”

 Shadow is the spirit that conceives and brings forth every imagination that forecasts that the “worse cast scenario” is that which is surely going to come to pass. Just like Immani, Shadow loves to trouble the thoughts with worries, and stress, and anxiety about what is to come in the future because it is the thoughts and nature of Shadow to do so. Those who walk in fear and dread, who take thought about tomorrow, or for any future event, are those who walk in the same seeing, the same hearing, the same feelings, the same emotions, the same desires, and the same thinking, and the same speaking as that unclean  spirit Shadow does. When that which is right in the sight of Shadow is also that which is right in the sight of a man, then that soul becomes one with the uncleanness of that spirit; and that righteousness is what makes that man unclean in the sight God. An eye for eye?

 Matthew 6:31-34 “Therefore do not worry saying, “What shall we eat?”, or, “What shall we drink?”, or, “What shall we wear?”. For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But you seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all of these things shall be added to you. Therefore take not thought about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own evil.”

 II Peter 3:3,4 “Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts (shadow’s lust), and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.”

 Jude 17-19 “But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts (shadow’s lusts; that we should dread the times ahead and not look for the good that God promised). These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.”

 IMPORTANT NOTE: The Lord showed to me that all the prophets and all of the teachers that are using the signs of the times to forecast fear and dread in the days to come, they are not the prophets and teachers of the Lord who know, and see that God works “all things” for good because it is impossible for God to lie, regardless of how things appear. It appeared to Israel that they were going to die at the Red Sea, but…..Shadow lied to them.  

 Luke 21:8 “Jesus said, “Take heed that you be not deceived: for many shall come in my name saying, “I am Christ (which is simply saying that they are Christians); and the time draws near. Therefore do not go after them….25-26 “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.”

 Devil: the spirit of the Accuser  Devil: To accuse; to fault find; to slander. Devil is just one of the names for Satan. Being the god of this world, Satan’s nature and characteristics are manifested through the nature and characteristics of the spirit of this world; and the spirit of this world manifests it’s nature and characteristics through the lives of the children of this world. As God is the love that works no ill towards man through the grace of his mercies and forgiveness, so also is Satan the hatred that shows itself in the evil and the harm men render towards other men. No where are the mercies of God’s love and the coldness of Satan’s hatred more manifest than when the law of God is brought forth; for no where is the nature and characteristics of Devil’s hatred towards man more clearly seen when he uses the law itself to accuse, to find fault with, to judge, to slander, to point it’s finger at, and to condemn all who transgress that law. When sin abounds through the transgressions of the law, so also does is Satan’s hatred manifested through the accusing, and judging, and condemning that the spirit Devil executes against all those who transgress. Even so, when the same sins abound through the transgression of the law, so also is the grace of Father’s love abound when he shows himself to be greater through the mercies and forgiveness that God executes towards all those who confess their sins.

 John 8:3-5 “And the scribes and Pharisees brought to Jesus a woman taken in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, they said to him, “Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what do you say? ....7 Jesus said to them, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her….10-11 “When Jesus had lifted himself up, and saw none but the woman (who had been caught in the act of adultery), he said to her, “Woman, where are your accusers? Has no man condemned you?” She said, “No man, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you: go, and sin no more.”

 Revelation 12:9-11 “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”

 Romans 5:20 “Moreover the law entered so that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more.”

 1 Timothy 1:8 “But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully.”

 As the Devil loves to accuse and judge men for their sins and weaknesses before God, so also do those who walk after the spirit Devil also love to accuse and judge others for their sins and weaknesses. As the desire of the spirit is, so also is the desire of all those who walk after the senses of that spirit. Did I not say of those who do such things that they have eyes, but do not see, and that have ears but do not hear, “Why is it that they cannot hear my words or understand my speech? Is it not because they are of their father the Devil, and the desires of their father they will do. He was a murderer from the beginning.” Who is a murderer but he who hates his brother; and who is he hates is brother but he that accuses, and finds fault with, and blasphemes, and criticizes, and slanders, and gossips, and belittles, and argues, and blames, and judges, and curses, and condemns his brother for his sins and weaknesses? There is no mercy or  forgiveness in the mouth of him that murders his brother with his words. He that murders speaks by the spirit Devil, the words that poison with their accusations, slander, and condemnations so that they may kill, steal, and destroy. No man has power to tame the tongue, but that which is impossible for man is possible with God.

 John 8:44 “You are of your father the Devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abides not in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

 1 John 3:15 “Whosoever hates his brother is a murderer: and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.”

 Romans 2:1,2 “Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge; for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge do the same things. But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who do such things. And do you think this, O man, that you who judge those who do such things as you do, that you will escape the judgment of God? Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? But in accordance with your hardness and your Impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God.”

 Matthew 7:1-5 “Judge not so that you be not judged. For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you. And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, “Let me remove the speck from your eye”; and look, a plank is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the plank (the seeing of the spirit of this world) from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.”

 The power of life and death, and blessing and cursing, is in the tongue. The sword of the tongue is able to leave wounds that last much longer, go much deeper, and bring about wounds that can cause more damage than the blade of steel could ever do. The blade of steel does not hate, or accuse, or criticize, or blame, or argue, or slander, or belittle, or curse, or condemn others like that the tongue that the spirit Devil wields about with his senses; for Devil only delights in killing, and stealing, and destroying the life of others with his words. Even so, there is no judgment, or accusation, or condemnation spoken by any man against another that God will believe, or respect, or honor, lest Devil have the power to eternally condemn those who he judges and accuses. But every man is going to be judged with the same measure of judgment that he has used to judge others with.

 Matthew 12:33-37 “Either make the tree good and his fruit good, or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. O generation of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.”

 Galatians 5:24 “And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh (the spirit of this world) with its passions and desires.”

 Matthew 16:24,25 “Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?”

 Take heed brethren, for as that serpent the Devil delights in accusing the world and your brethren, so also does he delight in even accusing God before you also to tempt you to believe that God is liar like unto himself. Did he not accuse God of being a liar before Eve? If then the spirit Devil is not afraid in accusing and judging God himself, then surely he will not ever be fearful of accusing and judging the world that God loves. It is the nature of the beast to murder, and steal, and destroy with his words because the dragon is the father of the beast; and like father’s desires, so also are his son’s desires. Those who walk after the spirit Devil, they also will delight in accusing, judging, and condemning others because that is what the senses in them see as the right things to do. When that which is right in the sight of Devil is also that which is right in the sight of a man, then that soul becomes one with the uncleanness of that spirit; and the righteousness in the seeing of that man makes him to be unclean in the sight of God. An eye for eye?

 2 Peter 2:10-12 NIV “This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are, not afraid to slander celestial beings; yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.”

 Babylon: the spirit of confusion:  This is the spirit of double-mindedness; for where there is double-mindedness, there is confusion. When Adam and Eve were seduced into believing the lie of Satan that they could become as God, the spirit of the life departed from them, and the spirit of this world entered into them. With the spirit of this world came forth the nature of that unclean spirit Babylon. It is this spirit that loves to show itself to be as God; and when the lies of this spirit are joined together with the soul of man, then comes forth the double-mindedness that confuses men: the double-mindedness that does not know what it’s identity is. Is he god or is he man? This double-mindedness is the root of all idolatry where man worships and serves the image that he has of himself as a god because of all the works that he does when tries to show himself to be as God. If a man, through the works of his best efforts and good intentions, able to be as God? Just like Lucifer, who tried to imitate the righteousness and the goodness of God so that he could show himself to be as God, so also do they do who fall away from his grace because of these same wicked works. Was Lucifer an angel or was he God? Is the man that does these same works, is he a man or is he God? The double-mindedness of this confusion is the work of the spirit of Babylon; and it is this unclean that has conceived all of the thoughts of this double-mindedness in the thoughts of men. Are you a man or are you god?

 James 1:8 “A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.”

 1 Kings 18:21 “Elijah went before the people and said, "How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him."

 Ezekiel 28:2 “Son of man, say to the prince of Tyrus, “Thus says the Lord God, “Because your heart is lifted up, and you have said, “I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas”; yet you are a man, and not God, though you set you heart as the heart of God.”

 Joel 3:14 “Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision (are you God, or are you man): for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.”

 Matthew 12:43-45 “When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, “I will return to my house from which I came.” And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.”

 The spirit Babylon sees the darkness as being the light; the light that shines only on the abilities, the works, the strengths, the righteousness, the power, the wisdom, and the goodness that come forth in man through the spirit of this world. The man who is led by the spirit Babylon, though he will acknowledge his belief in God, he will continue to seek  for the recognition, the praise, and the glory that comes from others for the works that he does that seem right and appear good. This is the idolatry of Babylon. Is he a man or is he a god? This is the double-mindedness of Babylon. Again, the man that is led by the spirit Babylon will acknowledge God, but then he will sit in the seat of God, executing his own judgments of what he believes to be good and evil, or, right and wrong. Is he a man or is he a god? This is the double-mindedness of Babylon. Again, the man who is led by this spirit will continue to acknowledge God, but he proceeds to make himself to be lord and god over his own Christianity, forming God into an image that is pleasing to him, and worshipping and serving the image of God that he chooses for God to be. Is he a man or is he a god? This is the double-mindedness of Babylon. And again, the man who is led by the spirit Babylon will acknowledge God, but then he will flatter with his tongue and speak good words so that he may be rewarded with the glory of men. Is he a man or is he a god? This is the double-mindedness of Babylon. And again, the man who is led by this spirit will acknowledge God, but he will only follow after the ways that seem right in his own eyes. Is he a man or is he a god? This is the double mindedness of Babylon. And the man who is led by the spirit Babylon, he will acknowledge God, but then he will seek to make right his own weaknesses and sins through self-justification rather than to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Is he a man or is he a god?

 John 7:18 “He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory…”

 How can any man know who he truly is if he is confused about his identity? This confusion of identity is also seen in the double-mindedness of the man who professes with his mouth that all power belongs to God, but then through the power of his own will, he labors to take control over his own life, as well as over his own destiny. Is he a man or is he a god?  Again, this double-mindedness is also seen in the man that agrees with the word that says, “There are none righteous, and none good, only God”, but then he tries to show himself to be righteous and good by his own works and outward appearances. Is he a man or is he a god? More of this double-mindedness is seen in those who profess the Lord to be their savior and their deliverer, but they will only turn to themselves in times of trouble in their own attempts to save and deliver themselves. Is he a man or is he a god? And lastly, this confusion of double-mindedness is seen in those who profess with their mouths that they love the Lord, but they not believe on his words, or keep his commandments, or trust in his love, and neither do they have any faith that God will perform any of his words for them, or fulfill any of his promises, or finish the work that he has started in them. This is the confusion of double-mindedness: the works of the spirit Babylon that confuses men so that they do not know who they truly are, and neither do they know who their God truly is. Their lives are spent professing their faith, and trust, and belief in God, but then they go about trying to show themselves to be as God. This is their confusion, and their double-mindedness is their idolatry. 

 Romans 1:21-25 “When they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, nor were thankful, but became vain in their own imaginations, their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and they changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man -- and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the desires of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who changed the truth of God into a lie, and they worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.”

 James 1:8 “A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.”

 The spirit of Babylon clothes itself in the garments of vanity, the illusion that makes  nothingness to appear as though it is something desirable, great, and beautiful in the sight of all those who have the darkness to be the light in their vision. When I came into this world, even my own people could not see any greatness or beauty in me because they saw nothing in me that could help them in exalting, or in beautifying, or in glorifying the vain images that they had made of themselves. They were to occupied with serving and worshipping the beauty of their self-images because the images they saw with their eyes deceived them into believing that they were righteous and good; which they thought to be spiritual righteousness and goodness of God. Again, these are the works of the spirit Babylon, to confuse the children of God with double-mindedness. These are the vain works of the double-minded who desire to make themselves to be great and beautiful in the sight of their own eyes, as well as in the sight of others. It is the spirit Babylon that speaks in the thoughts of the double-minded saying, “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the greatest and most beautiful of them all?” This is the idolatry of all who do not know God, the idolatry of the ignorant who think that the darkness within them is the light of God.

 The blind cannot see the vanity that is in the works of men’s hands; the works that men do so that they may outwardly appear righteous and pleasing in their own eyes, as well as in the sight of other men also. Where there is vanity, there you will find the spirit Babylon; always trying to make that which is nothing to be appear as that which should be served and worshipped. Their vanity is their hypocrisy, and their hypocrisy is the works of their double-mindedness. A man is not the illusion that he makes himself to appear as, but he is that which he thinks in heart. I came into this world as the light that reveals the truth about vanity. I did not come into this world to exalt and glorify vanity, but as the light that reveals the truth about the nothingness of vanity. I came into this world to reveal my Father to all of the children of this world that desire to know him; to remove the enmity of ignorance that through vain works has kept man alienated from God’s fellowship and separated from the blessings and goodness of Father’s love.

 Ecclesiastes 1:2 “Vanity of vanities”, says the Preacher, “Vanity of vanities; all is vanity…14 “I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit.

 Psalm 94:11 “The Lord knows the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.”

 Job 15:31 “Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity: for vanity shall be his reward.”

 Psalm 39:5,6 “….Truly, every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah. Surely every man walks in a vain show…11  When you, with rebuke, do correct man for iniquity, you make his beauty to consume away like a moth. Surely every man is vanity. Selah.”

 Jeremiah 4:30 AMP “And you [plundered one], when you are made desolate (alone; alienated from God), what will you do? Though you clothe yourself with scarlet, though you deck yourself with ornaments of gold, though you paint your eyelids and make them look farther apart, in vain you beautify yourself. Your lovers (allies) (the seven unclean spirits) despise you. They seek your life.”

Matthew 23:24-28 “You blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within you are full of extortion and excess. You blind Pharisee, first cleanse that which is within the cup and platter so that the outside of them may be clean also. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whited tombs which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead bones, and of all uncleanness (self-righteousness). Even so you outwardly appear righteous to men, but within you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.”

Acts 14:14,15 “When the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard these things, they tore their clothes, and ran in among the people crying out, and saying, “Sirs, why do you do these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and we preach to you that you should turn from these vanities to the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein.”

Job 35:13 “Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.”

Jeremiah 10:14-15 “Everyone is senseless without knowledge; every goldsmith is shamed by his idols. His images are a fraud because they have no breath in them. They are vanity, the objects of mockery, and when their judgment comes, they will perish.”

Acts 17:28-30 “For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, for we are also his offspring. Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commands all men every where to repent.”

II Timothy 4:3,4 “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears. And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

1 Corinthians 13:2 “And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but if I have not love, I am nothing.”

The spirit of Babylon moves freely about in the darkness of the mind that is ignorant of God, always forming images of God through the opinions it brings forth to mask their ignorance of God. It also through this ignorance that men will also make doctrines that will further confuse men as to what their true identity is; doctrines that require men to do the works that make them to appear as God. It is only in the darkness of man’s ignorance that the spirit of Babylon leads men to make these false images and idols, whether they be false images of God, or the idols that men make of themselves. Nevertheless, these are the false images and the idols that ignorant men will worship and serve as their God. The spirit of Babylon loves to deceive men by coming in the name of the Lord, to turn the hearts of men away from the truth of God so that they may worship and serve these lies that appear as the truth, the works that seem to bring forth goodness and righteousness. The work of the spirit Babylon is to deceive ignorant men into worshipping and serving the creature rather than God the Creator; and in doing so, they truly believe that they are actually serving and worshipping God because they are blind to see the truth. All of the works of the spirit Babylon are seen when the people of God have their identity confused with God’s identity because they never examined or judged themselves to prove whether the seeing in their eyes was light from God or the darkness that appears as the light. For this reason, that which is right in the sight of the spirit Babylon will also be that which is right in their sight because their senses have become one; and having become one, they make their soul unclean in the sight of God through the righteousness that is in their double-mindedness. 

John 16:1-4 Jesus said, “These things I have spoken to you so that you should not be made to stumble. They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you (whether by the blade of steel or the sword of the tongue) will think that he does God service. And these things they will do to you because they have not known the Father nor me. But these things I have told you, that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you of them.”

Romans 1:21-26 “When they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and they changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections…”

Romans 9:31-10:3 “But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness. Why? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; for as it is written, “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.”

Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.”

Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags…”

Matthew 23:27,28 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whited tombs that indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but within you are full of dead bones and of all uncleanness. Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.”

Matthew 24:4,5 “And Jesus answered and said to them, “Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name saying, “I am Christ; and they shall deceive many.”

II Corinthians 11:12-15 “But that which I do, I do so that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion, so that they glory therein, and they may be found even as we. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And do not marvel, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”

Malaise: the spirit of infirmity:  This is simply the unclean spirit that opens the door to all of the unclean spirits that bring with them all of the sicknesses and diseases that afflict the body of man. It is also this spirit that brings the oldness that ages the body and all of its parts.  

Luke 13:11-13 “And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up. But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, “Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.” And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.”

Stoi-mina: the spirit of enmity that is always against God:  The definition for the name of this spirit is: “You are mine!” When Stoimina says, “You are mine, you belong to me!”, he is not only speaking for himself, but for all of the unclean spirits of this fallen world. When the Lord declared that we are now the temple of God, and that we are no longer our own, the battle lines were drawn; and the battle from that moment till now would be who would you choose to serve. Whose words would you choose we to believe? Whose understanding would you choose to lean on? Whose wisdom would you choose to give sight to our eyes? Whose spirit would your soul choose to follow after? Who would we choose to give our sacred trust to? Whose counsel would our soul choose to surrender? Who would you choose to give the affection of your heart to? The Lord spoke to us through the apostle Paul informing us that our enemy would never be flesh and blood; and if we see that our enemy is flesh and blood, then we are blind to see the truth. The Lord, again speaking through Paul, said that our warfare would not be carnal but spiritual, and that the battlefield would be waged in the thoughts of our own minds: in the same mind where we make all of the above choices. God has given to each of us the freedom to choose who were are going to serve, but know that Stoimina is that unclean spirit that is going to try and take that freedom away. Stoimina does not come in the humility or meekness as love does, but he comes with in power of lust commanding, “You have to do as I say…” Stoimina is that unclean spirit that empowers all of the other unclean spirits to make war and contend with the truth and the love of God.

*NOTE: Stoimina was first brought to my attention through a brother named Brian Rasmussen. He said that he, and those who he fellowshipped with, had just read the word that the Lord gave to us entitled “Immani: The Name of the Spirit of Fear.” Brian said after they read this word, they were praying and asking the Lord to reveal the name of a spirit that was troubling one of their brethren. The Lord revealed to them that the name of this spirit was Stoi-mina. I did not know Brian until he sent there testimony to me, and I then began to pray and ask the Lord who and what this spirit was. At that time, I did not know that the Lord was in the midst of revealing the seven unclean spirits that the spirit of this world consists. Thank you Lord, and thank you for Brian and those who he fellowships with.

I Corinthians 6:19,20 “What? Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit that is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own? For you are bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.”

I Peter 2:11,12 “Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul.”

Ephesians 6:10-13 “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the Devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God so that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand.”

II Corinthians 10:3-6 “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh because the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds, casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ, and having a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.”

Stoimina makes war because he is the spirit that cannot subject itself to things that are of God. Darkness cannot fellowship with the light, nor can lies agree with the truth, nor can hatred have any communion with love, and neither does death have any friendship with life. Stoimina resists all that God speaks because it is impossible for Stoimina to hear, or to understand, or to receive, or to trust, or to believe any truth that comes from the mouth of God because the senses of this world have no agreement with the spiritual senses of God. Stoimina is the unclean spirit that believes only in, that only trusts in, that is only faithful to, that only honors, and that only loves the things of this world: the god of this world, the wisdom of this world, the lusts of this world, and the rest of the unclean spirits of this world. God speaks the truth when he says, “You are mine”, but Stoimina does and cannot believe his words, and he seeks to overcome this truth by saying, “No, you are mine! You belong to me! You belong to this world!”.

“I do not believe that!” It is from Stoimina that comes forth all doubts, all unbelief, and all reasonings that contend and oppose all the words of God, and all things that are of God.

Stoimina is the consciousness of the carnal mind, always mindful and ready to bring forth the doubts and unbelief that disobey God. Unbelief, and doubt, and reasoning against God is that which is natural to Stoimina. Stoimina only “believes and trusts” in the seeing, the hearing, the feelings, the emotions, the thinking, and the speaking that comes forth from all of the unclean spirits of his world. It is through the senses of Stoimina that a man will feel right in trusting in his own senses (instincts) to believe what he sees and trust in his own feelings and emotions. No man would willingly choose to live or move in the spirit of this world without Stoimina because he is the spirit that makes the darkness of this world to appear as the light so that it can be believed on and trusted in.   because that is the way that it naturally appears in the seeing and the hearing of all those who walk after the spirit of this world.  

1 John 4:5 “They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world hears them.

Romans 8:6,7 “For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. The carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God (the laws of love, of faith, of truth, and life), neither indeed can be.”

James 4:4,5 “You adulterers and adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Do you think that the scripture says in vain that the spirit that dwells in us lust to envy?”

Colossians 1:21-22 “And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now has he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death (taking up our cross and crucifying the world unto ourselves), to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight.”

Stoimina that can never believe or trusts in God because Stoimina hates to submit itself to anything other than itself. It is Stoimina that joins the counsels of all the other unclean spirits of this world together to resist and oppose God with hatred, doubts, hopelessness, rebellion, fear, bitterness, unbelief, confusion, pride, distrust, and the reasoning that seeks only to overthrow the counsels of God‘s love. It is Stoimina that brings forth all of the wicked thoughts of unbelief, and doubt, and reasonings against God in his attempts to overthrow the faith of the saints; to overthrow their faith so that he can keep men alienated from having any fellowship or communion with God, and separated from the blessings of Father’s love. It is Stoimina that Paul fought with as he battled to the end to keep the faith. He fought the good fight, not against flesh and blood, but against these unclean spirits of this world. He who surrenders to Stoimina is he that surrenders to doubt and unbelief.

Ephesians 4:19 “This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having their understanding darkened and alienated from the life of God (the life that communes and fellowships with God; the purpose that God created man for in the beginning) through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.”

Romans 8:35-39 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? (These following are the times of  that we are tempted with the counsels that come from the spirits of this world) Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Again, it is Stoimina that speaks for all these unclean spirits saying, “You are mine! There is none who can deliver you from us!” It is Stoimina that seeks to the harden the hearts of those who the calls with unbelief because Stoimina is the spirit of unbelief. Those who surrender their hearts to Stoimina’s lies will see the love for God grow cold in their hearts because Stoimina hates God. It is the doubts and unbelief of Stoimina that keeps the windows of heaven locked up, not allowing for any blessings to come forth from God because Stoimina is doubt; the doubt that God speaks of when he says, “Let not the man who wavers thinks that he shall receive anything from God.” It is from the thoughts of Stoimina that comes forth all counsel that tempt the carnally minded not to subject themselves to believe the words of God, or to do Father’s will, or to seek to know  the love of God.

Hebrews 3:7-10 “Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of trial in the wilderness, where your fathers tested me, tried me, and saw my works forty years. Therefore I was angry with that generation and said, “They always go astray in their heart, and they have not known my ways.”

Matthew 24:12 “And because iniquity (the righteousness that comes forth from the spirit of this world) shall abound, the love of many shall grow cold.”

James 1:5-7 “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that gives to all men liberally, and upbraids not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavers is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.”

Stoimina is the source of all worldly strength and might that resists God and speaks evil and blasphemes God, his son Jesus Christ, and all those who follow after the voice of  Jesus Christ. It is Stoimina that speaks it’s wicked lies to the souls of men that seek to pervert the image of God: “God will not forgive you. God does not love you. God hates you. God will not hear you. God does not care about you. God will not save you. God will not bless you. God is not with you. God has forsaken you. God cannot be bothered with you. God will do this for others, but he will not do this for you. God will not help you.” It is Stoimina that also speaks those lies to the souls of men that reason against God: “Why should you give your trust to God? Why should you believe God? Why should you wait on the Lord? Why should God help you? Why should you surrender your heart to God? Why should you be faithful to God? Why would God bless you? If God loved you, then why are in this situation that you are in? Why should God love you? Why should you love God, for he will fail you. It is also Stoimina that would have you measure the love of God by worldly means: “Look at your finances! Do not think that God will bless you! Look at your health! Do not think that God will care for you or heal you! Look at all your disgusting sins! Do not think that God will be merciful to you!” And of course, Stoimina never speaks any truth about God himself: “God will not be faithful to you. God is cruel. God is a liar. God will betray you. It is vain to serve God because he will not be there for you. Do not ask God for help because he only helps those who help themselves.” It is Stoimina that brings forth all of these wicked lies about God, as well as many, many more in its attempts to prevent any kind of relationship from ever forming between your soul and God. It is by reason of these lies that many will praise God with their lips and honor him with their mouths, but their hearts will not draw near to God because of their doubts, their unbelief, and their fears about God. 

I Corinthians 4:5 “Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.”

Nahum 1:11 “There is one that comes out of you that imagines evil against the LORD, a wicked counselor. Thus says the LORD: “Though they be quiet, and likewise many (the legions of these unclean spirits), yet thus shall they be cut down when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more. For now will I break his yoke (the wicked counselor) from off you, and will burst your bonds in sunder. And the Lord has given a commandment concerning you, that no more of your name be sown (child of this world): out of the house of your gods (these 7 unclean spirits) will I cut off the graven image and the molten image (the opinions that you have of yourself and of God): I will make your grave; for you are vile (the wicked counselor).”

Isaiah 29:14 “Therefore the Lord said: “Inasmuch as these people draw near to me with their mouths and honor me with their lips, but they have removed their hearts far from me.”

James 4:8 “Draw near to God and he will draw near to you.”

Stoimina is the spirit that hates the very thought of any of us having any fellowship, or communion, or relationship with God because this is the spirit that screams, “You are mine!” It is by Stoimina that the spirit of this world, and Satan himself, declares to your soul that you belong to him, and not to God. It is also by the spirit of Stoimina that the spirit Beelzebub, the spirit Devil, the spirit Babylon, the spirit Malaise, the spirit Immani, and the spirit Shadow all declare that your soul belongs to them, and there is no escape. 

When the unbelief, the doubts, and the reasonings of Stoimina becomes that which is right in the sight of a man, then that soul becomes one with the uncleanness of that spirit; and the righteousness of spirit makes him to be unclean in the sight of God. An eye for eye?

II Kings 18:28 “Then Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spoke saying, “Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria; thus says the king, “Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand, and neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord saying, “The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.” Do not hearken to Hezekiah: for thus says the king of Assyria, “Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then every man shall eat of his own vine and every one his own the waters”…33 Has any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?”

II Timothy 4:18 “And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory forever and ever. Amen!”

1 Corinthians 10:13 “There has no temptation taken you but that which is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able, but with the temptation, he will also make a way to escape so that you may be able to bear it.”

When I perceived that the Lord had finished revealing and defining Stoimina to me, I then asked two questions of him. First, I felt like I still wanted to have a more clear, and plain, and precise definition for Stoimina; one that would help me to clearly see when any of its counsels might come to tempt me to oppose God in ways that I might not be able to see. The Lord then answered and said, “The only way possible to define Stoimina is with every sin, every work of iniquity, all the hatred, all of the doubts, all of the unbelief, all the fears and dreads, all of the pride, every corrupt thought, every wicked work, every evil word, and every lie that has ever been performed or spoken by all who have walked the earth from Adam to this day. Though Stoimina is an unclean spirit, it is only one of the seven unclean spirits that the spirit of this world consists of; and from the spirit of this world comes all the wickedness and evil that man has directed the thoughts of man since the fall.” I then realized that there are just multitudes and multitudes of ways that a man can doubt God and not believe on him or his words. 

I John 2:15-17 “Do not love the world or the things of the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world -- the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life -- is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.”

I Peter 4:1,2 “Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.”

Romans 7:15-20 “For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not do; but what I hate, that I do. If then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.”

Galatians 5:24 “Those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh of it’s affections and lusts.”

Secondly, I asked the Lord what kind of effect Stoimina might presently be having on me. The Lord answered me and said, “Do not look at what effect Stoimina might be having on you, but look only on what kind of effect that Stoimina might be having on your relationship with me. Know this, that Stoimina’s purpose, as well as that of all these other six unclean spirits that are of this world, are all the same: to do all that which they can to keep you alienated from a life of my fellowship with me and to separate you from Father’s love. To accomplish this purpose, the spirit of this world uses the seeing, the hearing, the desires, the feelings, the emotions, the thinking, and the speaking of all seven of its spirits to tempt my people to turn away from me, and unto themselves. Those who make themselves to be friends with the world are those who allow the senses that are of the spirit of this world to become their own; and by these senses, the spirit of this world is allowed to continue ruling over the hearts and minds of the children of this world. It is Stoimina that cries out on behalf of the god of this world and spirit of this world, “You are mine! There is no escape from my rule! Let not your heart believe their lies because you mine.” The Lord said, “Let not your heart be overcome by the spirit of this world, but be ready daily to take up your cross daily to crucify the world unto yourself.”

Galatians 6:14-15 “But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.”

1 Corinthians 15:31-32 “I affirm, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily (agreeing with any of the counsels of the spirit of this word, that they are right).”

Do not be afraid, for I have overcome the world. Having come in the likeness of sinful flesh, I also was tempted in all things by the spirits of this world that you are, but I overcame them through the Spirit of God. I never agreed to call any of their lies to be right counsels for me to follow after or to live my life according to. If I had, then I would have sinned and made myself unclean by agreeing with and following after the spirit of this world. I never consented with the righteousness of this world, but I daily took up my cross to crucify all that which tempted me alienate myself from Father’s fellowship and all that which sought to separate me from Father’s love. I was tempted in all things as you are, but without sin. I was born of the Spirit of my Father, and there are no sins of alienation or separation in that which is born of God. Would you give your eyes for my eyes? Would you give your hearing for my hearing? Would you give the desires and affections in your heart for the desires and affections in my heart? Would you give your understanding and wisdom for my understanding and wisdom? Would you give to me the words that you speak for the words that I speak? Would you let me redeem all of your senses with my senses? I am the Christ, the spirit of God that has overcome the spirit of this world! If any man be in me, then he is a new creature; the old senses, that had nothing of God in them, will pass away, and a new creature will come forth that is one with God, through my spirit. A new creature without sin; one that walks, and communes, and fellowships, and loves God.  

Ezekiel 18:31-32 “Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby you have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dies”, says the Lord God. “Wherefore turn yourselves to me and you shall live.”

Ezekiel 36:24-27 “For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land. Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your filthiness; and from all your idols I will cleanse you. A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my judgments, and do them.”

II Corinthians 5:17-19 “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who has reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation: To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not imputing their trespasses to them; and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.”

Reconcile: To make an enemy to be a friend.

John 16:33 “These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

I John 5:4 “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world -- our faith.”

Wow! The Lord had just allowed for me to fully experience the fullness of two very different life forms. Of course, I am very familiar with the life form that is captive to the spirit of this world because for many, many years I thought that it was my identity because I thought that it’s sense were my own senses. The children of this world serve the god of this world through the senses of the spirit of this world and through the wisdom of this world. Being born first of the spirit of this world, we each came forth in a nature that kept us alienated and separated from all fellowship and communion with God, and his love. Let us not forget, it was God that created us, not the god of this world or the spirit of this world. God created us to have fellowship with him and to be partakers of his love. This is the will of God. Sin is that which does not fellowship with God or partake in his love. Even in this sin, God has loved us when we did not love him. He has showed us the depth of his love for all of us when he sent his only son Jesus Christ into the world, that whosoever would believe on him, could receive the gift of the Holy Spirit; the gift that restores fellowship and communion with God. And through this precious gift, we have been given the power to freely choose whose identity we desire to have for ourselves. If it be Lord, then take up you cross, and dispossess your worldly identity. If it be the world, then take your cross and crucify all of the things of the Lord. The Lord told me that no man can be made free from his captivity to the spirit of this world unless he was first willing to die to the senses of all seven of these unclean spirits. If you desire to die to six, and hold on to one, then it would be impossible to be made free because the spirit of his world consists of all seven. To those who choose the Lord to be his identity, to have spiritual senses that allow us to partake in a life of fellowship and love with god himself, then what more could our loving Father do than to give to us the spirit of his Son that enables and empower us to crucify the world, and all of it’s senses, so that we might be made new creatures in Jesus Christ. 

Luke 11:13 “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, then how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”

Romans 8:13-14 “For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you, through the Spirit, do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.”

In the times of our ignorance, what man has understood or known that when he has walked in the love of self, or in his dreads about his tomorrows, or in his regrets of the past, or in the confusion of his opinions, or when he was finding fault and judging others, or in the anxieties and worries of his fears, or in the disobedience of his reasonings, in the loneliness of pride, or in any kind of sickness in the flesh, or in the vanity of his wisdom, that he was actually walking in the seeing, the hearing, the desires, the emotions, the feelings, the thinking, and the speaking of the spirit of this world, serving only the god of this world? What man has known or considered that all of these things are just as much a part of the sin nature of the spirit of this world as any hatred, or rebellion, or blasphemy, or murder, or adultery? After seeing, and hearing, and believing these things that the Lord has revealed through these visions and revelations, I can clearly see that I have not yet been perfected in his love. Though the Lord has mortified many of the desires and affections of these unclean spirits, I still see that I am an unwilling captive to some of these senses. But like Paul, if I sin, it is not I that sin, but sin dwelling in me. Through the truth, I have been able to separate myself from the senses of this world. The world is no longer my identity. Many taste of his love, our new identity, but perfection has not yet come. Even so, I continue to be, and am so thankful, to be covered by the blood of Christ and kept by the grace of his love through the faith of Christ. Truly, it is as it is written, that his love covers a multitude of sins. I just did not realize how great that multitude of sins was in me until these revelations came revealing the world to me. How deceived and corrupted I was in thinking that the nature of the spirit of this world was my nature. Thanks be God for the revelations of these truths that allow for us to separate ourselves from our old man that was completely subject to the senses of this world.

Ephesians 2:1,2 “And you he made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience.”

Jeremiah 4:22 “For my people are foolish, they have not known me. They are senseless children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but to do good, they have no knowledge.”

I Corinthians 15:42-49 “So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, “The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a life-giving spirit.” However, the spiritual is not first, but that which is natural; then afterward then the spiritual.  that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.”

Of course, this second life form of love, that which I briefly experienced when the Lord visited me besides that waterfall, that is the life form that is real because it is the only life form that is eternal. It is a life form where there is no separation or alienation from God, but one that joins together in perfect love. After many years of seeking the Lord, I finally came into that place of belief where I truly knew in my heart that God loved me, and that I was now walking in relationship with him through the faith of Christ Jesus, believing that I was one of his beloved. Then I had this visitation, I experienced this love from him in three different kinds of relationships, and it was so wonderful that even now I cannot imagine what it would be like to be loved by God in this manner for all of eternity. If I had only experienced his love in just one of these kinds of relationship, it would still have been extremely blissful for all of eternity. But only one would not have been the perfect love of God. Would not his love be perfected if we received and then gave to him the same love that he has for us in that father/son; bridegroom/bride; and best friend relationships? The love that I experienced from him in all three of these relationships was as intimate, as wonderful, and as personal as you can possibly get. I now know that our creator God wants a lot more out of us than anything we could have ever imagined: our love and affection in all its perfection. Just how great and how awesome can the perfection of God’s love be when each one of us experiences for himself what it feels like to be sole object of his love in all of these relationships….and for all of eternity? After seeing and experiencing these two different forms of life, I now clearly know one thing, and that is I know who he is that loves me, and who he is that hates me and desires to oppress and abuse me. For this reason, I will keep pressing on, into the high calling of God, until all of my relationships with God have been perfected in love, through Jesus Christ.

1 John 1:1-4  “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life -the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us --that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.”

Having now seen through these revelations that I was serving various affections, and desires, and emotions that were of this spirit of this world that I was not even aware of,  I now had a much deeper understanding of that which I have been captive to, and that I could not truly be made a new creature in Christ Jesus until all of this old identity was gone. I was somewhat surprised to see that the sin nature of man is not really his sin, but it is the sin nature that is of the spirit of this world; and it is that sin nature that has no fellowship or relationship with God. Gladly, I choose to disown that identity. I also understood that we are only sinners when we walk in agreement with the senses of this spirit of this world, believing that its lies are the right counsels that we should live our lives according to. That which we live to is that which we believe to be right; and that which we die to is that which we believe to be wrong. I then realized that whatever spirit I choose to submit my heart to obey, it will then be the fruits of that spirit that I will bear: and those fruits are seen in the senses I walk according to. If the Lord had not come to me, and allowed for me to taste and experience the divine nature of his perfect love, then I would not have known just how much I was still captive to the senses of the spirit of this world. For just the briefest of moments, when I was with the Lord besides that waterfall, I was walking, and talking, and thinking, and seeing, and hearing, and having the same feelings and passions of love that God was having towards me. Priceless! Just like the scripture says, until this day, we have been the children of God through faith, and trust, and belief, and with a small degree of love for him, but that is about to all change for those who have chosen to be partakers of the perfection of his divine love and become one with him in all these relationships. When Jesus is revealed from heaven to the sons of God, then they shall see him as he is, in the perfection of love, in the glory of everlasting life, and in the beauty of holiness, and they shall be changed into his exact likeness. An eye for an eye?   

1 John 3:2 “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.”

While I was still considering these things which the Lord had just revealed to me, he suddenly brought into my remembrance that which is written in Isaiah 64:6 “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” And he then brought into my remembrance that which Paul said in Romans 14:14 “I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself…” Then understanding entered into my heart, and I knew that God did not create Adam with any uncleanness in him because he walked in fellowship and relationship with God. But when Adam submitted himself to believe that the lies of Satan, that they were right counsels for him to follow after, then that unclean spirit of this world entered into him. And once that unclean spirit entered in, it brought with it the senses of the god of this world so he could take man captive to serve him through the senses of our seeing, our hearing, our desires, our feelings, our emotions, our thinking, and our speaking. How else could we serve him, but by being deceived into believing that these senses were the right senses for us to walk according to? When a man walks according to the spirit of his world, he walks according to the senses that are right in the sight of Immani, and Devil, and Beelzebub, and Babylon, and Shadow, and Stoimina, and Malaise. It is the righteousness of these unclean spirits that makes children of this world to be unclean in the sight of God. No man is unclean of himself because God did not create uncleanness in man, for had he done so, then Adam would never had been allowed to fellowship and commune with him. Man only becomes unclean after he submits himself to believe that the seeing, the hearing, the thinking, the feelings, the emotions, the desires, and the speaking of these seven spirits of this world is the right manner that he should live his life according to. The nature of fallen man is the sin nature of the spirit of this world; the sinful nature that alienates him from the life that God created man to be partakers of with him because there is no love of God in spirit of this world.

Matthew 16:33 “Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are an offense to me, for you are not mindful of the things of God but the things of men.”

I John 4:5,6 “They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God: he that knows God hears us; and he that is not of God does not hear us. Hereby we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”

Romans 8:5-7 “Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace. The sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law (a life of love), nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.”

Luke 11:24-26 “When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest. And finding none he says, “I will return to my house from where I came out. And when he comes (Ephesians 6:10-13), he finds it swept and put in order. He then goes and takes with him seven other spirits (the spirits of this world) more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.”

John 14:29-31 "Jesus said, “And now I have told you before it comes so that when it does come to pass, you may believe. I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in me.”

Ezekiel 44:23 “And they (the priests and ministers of the Lord) shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.”

Leviticus 7:21 “Moreover the soul that shall touch any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man, or any unclean beast, or any abominable unclean thing, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which pertain unto the Lord, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.”

Haggai 2:14 “Then answered Haggai and said, “So is this people, and so is this nation before me, says the Lord, “And so is every work of their hands (their hypocrisy and works of iniquity; see Matt.7:21-23/Luke 18:9-14) that which they offer there is unclean.”

Ezekiel 22:25-27  “There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls. They have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof. Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned my holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they showed the difference between the unclean and the clean. They have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.”

Isaiah 6:5 “Then said I, Woe is me! For I am undone because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.”

Isaiah 35:8 “And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.”

Ephesians 5:5-6 “For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.”

Job 14:4 “Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? Not one.”

After I understood that the uncleanness of man does not come of himself but through the senses of the spirit of this world that he his soul has been joined to since birth, the Lord then spoke this word to me, “Satan is the god of this world. The spirit of this world is to Satan as the Spirit of the God is to God. As the spirit of this world is the enemy of God, so also are the children of this world enemies of God by the senses of this world. Even so, God loves his enemies; for if he did not, then I would have never have told you to love your enemies. I am the spirit of God. I am the spirit that loves your enemies. I am the Christ. I am the spirit that reconciles you to God, to make enemies to be friends. I am the Christ. I am the Spirit of the senses of God. I am the senses of God that delivers you from the senses of this world. I am the Spirit that sees, that hears, the desires, that feels, that thinks, and that speaks as God does. No man can walk with God except he agree with God. I am the senses that agree with the senses of God. God is love, and I am the senses of love. God is Spirit, and I am the Spirit of God. We are one. I am the Christ that restores fellowship and communion between God and man. I am the Christ that overcame antichrist, the spirit of this world, that continually labors to keep men alienated from all fellowship with God and separated from his love. I am the Christ that brings an end to this world by restoring the will of God in man, so that he can receive all of Father’s love, and love Father with all of his senses. I am the light of the wisdom of God gives sight to all those who desire to do that which is right in the sight of God. I am not the wisdom that is given to those who desire to do what is right in their own eyes. Eye for an eye?

Isaiah 11:2,3 “The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him: the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. His delight is in the fear of the LORD, and he shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of his ears,

but with righteousness he shall judge….”

II Corinthians 3:17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
