The Letter Kills, But The SPIRIT Gives Life!!! _________________________ *Gal.3:24-28 NKJV< Therefore the Law was our tutor to bring us to CHRIST, that we might be justified by Faith. But after Faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor. For you are all sons of GOD through Faith in CHRIST JESUS. For as many of you as were baptized into CHRIST have put on CHRIST. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in CHRIST JESUS. *Gal.2:19-21 NKJV< For I through the Law died to the Law that I might live to GOD. I have been crucified with CHRIST; it is no longer I who live, but CHRIST lives in me; and the Life which I now live in the flesh I live by Faith in the SON of GOD, WHO loved me and gave HIMSELF for me. I do not set aside the Grace of GOD, for if Righteousness comes through the Law, then CHRIST died in vain. *2Pet.1:16,19-21< For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the Power and Coming of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, but were eyewitnesses of HIS Majesty... And so we have the Prophetic Word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a Light that shines in dark place, until the Day dawns and the MORNING STAR rises in your hearts; knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any private interpretation, for Prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of GOD spoke as they were moved by the HOLY SPIRIT. *Gal.1:10-17 RSV< Am I now seeking the favour of men, or of GOD? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of CHRIST. For I would have you know, brethren, that the Gospel which was preached by me is not mans gospel. For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a Revelation of JESUS CHRIST. For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the Church of GOD violently and tried to destroy it; and I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers. But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and had called me through HIS Grace, was pleased to reveal HIS SON to me, in order that I might preach HIM among the Gentiles, I did not confer with flesh and blood, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned to Damascus. *2Cor.4:1-7 NKJV< Therefore, since we have this Ministry, as we have received Mercy, we do not lose heart. But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the Word of GOD deceitfully, but by manifestation of the Truth commending ourselves to every mans conscience in the Sight of GOD. But even if our Gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the Light of the Gospel of the Glory of CHRIST, WHO is the Image of GOD, should shine on them. For we do not preach ourselves, but CHRIST JESUS the LORD, and ourselves your bondservants for JESUS sake. For it is the GOD WHO commanded light to shine out of darkness, WHO has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the Knowlfge of the Glory of GOD in the Face of JESUS CHRIST. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the Power may be of GOD and not of us. *2Cor.3:4-6 NKJV< And we have such trust through CHRIST toward GOD. Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from GOD, WHO also made us sufficient as ministers of the New Covenant, not of the letter but of the SPIRIT; for the letter kills, but the SPIRIT gives Life. *1Cor.2:6-11 NKJV< However, we speak Wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. But we speak the Wisdom of GOD in a mystery, the hidden Wisdom which GOD ordained before the ages for our glory, which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the LORD of Glory. But as it is written: Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which GOD has prepared for those who love HIM. But GOD has revealed them to us through HIS SPIRIT. For the SPIRIT searches all things, yes, 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 no one knows the things of GOD except the SPIRIT of GOD. For Prayerful Meditations: Jn.3:1-13; 6:63; 10:14-18; 11:45-53; 15:1-17; 16:7-15, Lk.9:49-50; 11:23; 24:44-45, Eph.4:1-16, Heb.5:1-13. Acclamation: The true Light that enlightens every man was coming into the world. HE was in the world, and the world was made through HIM, yet the world knew HIM not. HE came to HIS OWN Home, and HIS OWN People received HIM not. But to all who received HIM, who believed in HIS Name, HE gave POWER to become the children of GOD; who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of GOD. (Jn.1:9-13 RSV). It is the SPIRIT that gives Life, the flesh is of no avail; the Words that I have spoken to you are SPIRIT Life. (Jn.6:63 RSV). I write this to you about those who would deceive you; but the ANOINTING which you received from HIM abides in you, and you have no need that any should teach you; as HIS ANOINTING teaches you everything, and is true, and is no lie, just as IT has taught you, abide in HIM. (1Jn.2:26-27 RSV). Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears MY Voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and eat with him, and he with ME. (Rev.3:20 RSV). Glory to GOD!!!!!!!
