Spiritual or Soulish - Deceptions in the ranks.

Post from: Notes from the Journey of a Ransomed life
I. Introduction:  

Ready to slaughter some sacred cows?

Soulish believers

For some time now, I've been observing how many of today’s “Christians” have willingly swallowed the deception that is rampant in today’s world.

And, for the most part, the church has been the first to belly up to the trough. There are exceptions, of course, but they’re getting harder and harder to find.

I'm going to admit that this particular subject is one that I've really been avoiding and just didn't want to address. Things just finally got to the point where I couldn't avoid it any longer.

The only way I can describe it is to call it a “restless and troubled” nagging in my spirit.

This particular post will be the first in a series dealing with deception in the lives of today’s believers, deception in the church and the disobedience of the church.

So, without further ado, let’s start killing off a few sacred cows.

A. A Little Background

I recently re-read Derek Prince’s teaching sheet titled “Spiritual or Soulish,” and that’s when things finally started to come together. In this installment, I’ll be borrowing from his most excellent treatment of this subject so that we can have some common understanding.

In the original pattern of creation, there was a descending relationship. God moved upon man’s spirit; his spirit moved upon his soul; and his soul directed his body. 

The spirit of man comes directly from God and relates directly to God.

Through man’s rebellion, however, his spirit was set aside and his soul took over control. As a result, unregenerate man is controlled by the three functions of his soul: the will, the intellect and the emotions.

When God reconciles man to Himself, His purpose is to restore the original order, by which He once again relates directly to man’s spirit; man’s spirit in turn moves upon his soul; and man’s soul moves upon his body.

This explains the words of David in 

Psalm 103:1

Bless the Lord, O my soul. 

Through faith, David’s spirit had been reunited with God and was eager to worship Him. 

So his spirit stirred up his soul to move upon his vocal organs to utter the appropriate words of worship.

So long as man remains in submission to God and his soul remains in submission to his spirit, man functions in harmony with God and with himself. 

But whenever man reasserts his rebellion against God, his soul is no longer in submission to his spirit and the harmony is broken.

The Greek of the New Testament has a special adjective, formed directly from the word for soul, psuche, which describes action initiated by the soul. The adjective is psuchikos. 

In English, the natural way to render this would be soulish. Unforunately, there is no English for such a word.

As a result, different English translation of the New Testament have used a variety of different words and phrases to describe this word: natural, sensual, worldly, no-spiritual, worldly-minded, without the spirit, and “to follow their natural instinct.” 

All of these translate into one and the same Greek word.

For our purposes, we’ll use the word soulish.

B. So What Does All This Mean to Us?

For understanding spiritual things, the soul is dependent upon the spirit. If it is out of harmonywith the spirit, the realm of spiritual truth is closed to it. 

In order for the truth to be revealed to us, it is important that we approach spiritual things with the correct attitude – our soul submitted to our spirit and our spirit submitted to and in union with God.

Whenever the soul of a Christian is not submitted through his spirit to God, he becomes a channel through which every kind of carnality (earthly, sensual, worldly, and unspiritual) and division can infiltrate his life and infiltrate the church.

I I. Conclusion: 

A

A Serious Warning 

In James 3:15, the apostle speaks about a form of wisdom which does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual (soulish), demonic.

James has given us a clear depiction of a downward slide in three successive stages:

from the earthly to the soulish to the demonic.

A. In The First Stage Christians become Earthly

In the first stage, Christians become earthly and lose the true vision of eternity. Unable to see beyond the things of this life (success, pleasure, wealth, health), they are only interested in what their faith can do for them in this life.

Paul has a message for such people. 

1 Corinthians 15:19: If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

Christians that are like that often consider themselves prosperous and successful – God considers them pitiable.

B. From Earthly , The Next Stage Is Soulish

From earthly, the next stage is soulish. To be soulish is to be ego-centric, self-centered. 

For such people, the Christian faith is a way to get what they want out of life. They suppose that godliness is a means of gain (1 Timothy 6:5).

The soulish opens the way for the demonic. This is one of the main ways in which demons infiltrate the church and man.

A really common question I hear asked a lot is: 

Do Christians ever need deliverance from demons?

James has given us a clear answer to that one.

This downward progression from the earthly to the soulish to the demonic exposes both the individual believer and whole congregations to the activities of demons.

In many instances today, the church is an ungodly mixture. No clear line is drawn between the spiritual and the soulish. 

As a result, there is no barrier whatsoever to the demonic.

Genuine manifestations of the Holy Spirit are interlaced with manifestations that are clearly demonic.

Lies, half-truths and outright deception are interwoven and wrapped up and packaged in messages and entertainment that are supposedly presented in the name of Jesus Christ.

All too often, we just swallow these half-truthful exercises in claptrap by the (earthly, soulish)  justification that we “got some good” from the message

We conveniently forget (or, perhaps, we choose to forget) Jesus’ admonition that a little leaven corrupts the whole lump.

If we were to practice some real discernment, we would realize that we are placing ourselves in danger of participation in the fulfilling of one of the most terrible warnings in scripture:

2 Thessalonians 2:11-12:

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie, so that all those who do not believe the truth, but delight in unrighteousness, might be condemned.

Now I don’t know about you, but I believe that’s a pretty scary scripture.

Should God choose to send strong delusion, you’d best believe that it’s going to happen.

In the next instalment – a few of today’s sacred cows that need the same treatment Elijah gave to the false prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel (1 Kings, Chapter 18).

Some of you may not be too pleased.

I I. Why Is Porno wrong? 

 by Matt Slick

1 Cor. 6:18, 

"Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body."

Even though the Bible does not say anything about pornography, it is still wrong.  Pornography deals with photography and/or illicit paintings and/or cartoons that are designed to arouse sexual passions in the viewer.  It is certainly possible that at the time when the Bible was written that there were various art forms that depicted sexually explicit things. 

But apparently this phenomenon was not sufficiently prevalent enough for the subject to be addressed in the Bible. Nevertheless, we can derive an accurate conclusion from scriptures that deal with other issues and apply them to the issue of pornography.

Matt. 5:27-28, 

"You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery'; 28 but I say to you, that everyone who looks on a woman to lust for her has committed adultery with her already in his heart."

Col. 3:5, 

"Therefore consider the members of your earthly body as dead to immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which amounts to idolatry."

As you can see, the Bible tells us to be sexually pure. This is why Jesus even tells us to guard our minds. 

Note that He said in Matt. 5:28 that to even look on a woman lustfully is to commit adultery with her. In viewing pornography, nakedness, and explicit sexual displays lust is not only given the opportunity to rise (thereby enticing since) but most often lustful passions and thoughts are triggered in the heart and mind.

This is obviously sinful and clearly demonstrates that pornography is sinful.  Add to this that often times pornography involves viewing sexual intercourse between unmarried people, and/or homosexual and lesbian activities, and we have a very clear case of it being sinful.

Even if the pornography does not involve viewing sexual intercourse between two people, it involves the viewing of naked individuals which is properly reserved for a husband and a wife.

Now someone may ask "What about art?  It often portrays the nakedness of men and women? Why isn't that pornographic?" 

The difference between art and pornography is the difference between beauty and lust.  In art the nakedness is intended to be a display of  beauty and wonder.  

Pornography does no such thing. It's intent is to entice a person by arousing the person's lust.  But then, someone may say that they view pornography as an art form and that it is beautiful.  But this is nothing more than an attempt to justify sin.

I I I.  A wife whose husband views pornography have grounds to divorce?

People have different views about Matthew 5:27-28, I have my views as well, but let see what Jeff Olson respond to this question:

by Jeff Olson

Only God understands the pain that many women feel when they discover that their husbands are looking at pornography. 

Many wives are hurt by this discovery. They become angry and filled with personal doubts.

Women in this situation often find themselves on a difficult road, especially if there has been a pattern and history to their husband’s involvement. 

Betrayal of the marital trust cuts deep into a woman’s soul, and many have found that it takes time to learn to trust again.

Some have had husbands who slowly re-earned trust by doing whatever it takes to bring an end to the practice, by not blaming their wives for their own wrongs, and by patiently accepting responsibility for the emotional pain and struggles with trust they have created for their wives.

It’s never easy for a wife to walk this road. While some are committed to stay married and work through the pain and mistrust, others take a different course by appealing to the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:27-28 , citing them as grounds to seek a divorce. “You have heard that it was said, ‘

Do not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”

Their contention is understandable. Since their husbands sexually lusted over women while looking at pornography, then they are guilty of the sin of adultery. 

And because adultery is grounds for divorce ( Matthew 19:9 ), they believe they have grounds to seek a divorce.

They may have a case — depending on the severity and extent of their husband’s problem. 

A husband who is into severe forms of pornography such as paedophilia or sadomasochism has likely sunken into such a deep level of perversion that it causes just as much devastation as physical adultery. 

Of course, a husband who refuses to give up his affair with any form of pornography is blatantly betraying his covenant with his wife. 

Generally speaking, it is only a matter of time before he seeks to act out on the lust he’s been cultivating in his heart through pornography. In such cases, a wife has a basis to appeal to the words of Jesus as grounds for divorce too.

Realistically, however, if Jesus meant to imply that sexually lustful thoughts were grounds for divorce in every case, then every husband could be divorced on that basis. 

What husband can say that his mind has never wandered into sexual lust of some kind. 

As we try to understand the implications of Jesus’ words, we must remember the context in which Jesus spoke about sexual lust and adultery. 

Jesus’ main point was not to give a wife wholesale grounds for divorce. He made the link between lust and adultery primarily to make the point that sin is more than mere behaviour  it is also a matter of the heart.

I V. 10 Steps to Overcoming Pornography Addiction

1. First, you must acknowledge the addiction exists. 

Many who are caught in the trap of addiction will adamantly deny the problem. 

He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will find compassion. - Proverbs 28:13

2. You must recognize that what you are doing is wrong.

Addicts find a way to justify their problem in their mind. 

I John 2:16

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. 

3. You must not blame others.

"If my wife/husband were just more affectionate." 

"If women/men were not so seductive."

Adam blamed Eve and she blamed the serpent. Instead, you must begin to take responsibility for your actions.

4. Make yourself accountable to a spiritual authority,

Perhaps parents, or a pastor or mature believer. Everybody needs a "safe" person to share their struggles with. 

James 5:16

Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.  

5. You must recognize that "will power" is not the answer.

you are in need of God's help

At a weak moment, your "will" may fail you. By admitting that you are in need of God's help, you open access to His supernatural intervention in your life. You must yield your will to God's will. That's when He can begin a new work in your life.

6. Study the Word of God concerning sexual purity. 

Therefore putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the Word implanted, which is able to save your souls. - James 1:21  

7. You must destroy any pornography in your possession. 

You can't wean yourself off pornography. Think of the hidden pornography in your home as a ticking time bomb that will ultimately destroy your family.

8. You must learn to flee temptation. 

Self-deception may enter when you think you can play with fire without getting burned. 

Proverbs 4:14,15

Do not enter the path of the wicked, and do not proceed in the way of evil men. Avoid it, do not pass by it. Turn away from it and pass on. 

9. Give yourself time to work through the process of recovery. 

More often than not, God chooses to take us through a learning and growing process, that can be very painful. Victory over addiction should be viewed as a marathon, not a sprint.

10. It's cliche, but you must approach your addiction one day at a time. 

Look for little victories and rejoice in the progress you're making.

I V. What shall I do to be saved? 

If you recognize that you are a sinner and you would like to ask the Lord forgiveness for your sins, give your life to Jesus and receive Eternal Life, you can do the following prayer:

... forgive me Lord ...

"Heavenly Father, I want to ask you forgiveness for all my sins and I want to put my trust in Jesus today. Please, have mercy on me, a sinner. I believe in you and that your word is true. 

I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and that he died on the cross so that I may now have forgiveness for my sins and eternal life. I know that without you in my heart my life is meaningless.

I believe in my heart that you, Lord God, raised Him from the dead. Please Jesus forgive me, for every sin I have ever committed or done in my heart, please Lord Jesus forgive me and come into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior today. I need  you to be my Savior and my Father.

I give you my life and ask you to take full control from this moment on; I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ."

Amen.

"Solus Spiritus" I I. Part - Supernatural Power

I. INTRODUCTION

In this post  "Solus Spiritus" I I. Part I would like to speak about the Supernatural Power of the Holy Spirit.

I believe that some Christians have confounded the Power exercised by Jesus and the Apostles with the power given to us, but other Christians have minimized and neglected the teaching of the Power of Holy Spirit in their Churches.

I believe in the Supernatural Power of the Holy Spirit, take please a quick look on this post to see if you agree with my views in this important matter:

I I. "SOLUS SPIRITUS" and Supernatural Power 

Before a short exposition on Acts 1:8 about the Power of the Holy Spirit, I would like to say a few things.

The Supernatural Power of the Holy Spirit is still working in our days, so I believe in anointment, healing, miracles, revival and even in some kind of signs and wonders.

But, don't jump conclusions before I tell you firstly in what I don't believe and secondly in What I Believe:

A. Firstly, let me say in what I don't believe

1. I don't believe in a manifestation that goes beyond what is written.

I don't believe in any manifestation of the Supernatural Power of the Holy Spirit that goes beyond the teaching of the Bible.

1 Corinthians 4:6 "Do not go beyond what is written"

Someone said "the Bible without the Spirit is dead and has no power, but the Spirit without the Bible is dangerous".

So, do not go beyond what is written, because it is dangerous!

You can find at the bottom of this post some warnings about teachings and experiences in Churches that goes beyond what is written.

2. I don't believe we have the same Power than Jesus and His Apostles.

I don't believe that we have the same Supernatural Power than Jesus and the Apostles to do the kind of miracles, healing, signs and wonders they did.

Hebrews 2:4 

God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?

Clarke's Commentary on Hebrews 2:4

God also bearing them witness:

He did not leave the confirmation of these great truths to the testimony of men; he bore his own testimony to them by signs, wonders, various miracles, and distributions of the Holy Ghost, Πνευματος 'Αγιου μερισμοις. 

And all these were proved to come from himself; for no man could do those miracles at his own pleasure, but the power to work them was given according to God's own will; or rather, God himself wrought them, in order to accredit the ministry of his servants.

Barnes' Notes on Hebrews 2:4

God also bearing them witness:

By miracles. Giving them the sanction of his authority, or showing that they were sent by him. No man can work a miracle by his own power. When the dead are raised, the deaf made to hear and the blind to see by a word, it is the Power of God alone that does it. He thus becomes a "witness" to the divine appointment of him by whose instrumentality the miracle is performed; or furnishes an attestation that what he says is true.

With signs and wonders:

These words are usually connected in the New Testament. 

The word rendered "signs" - σημεῖον sēmeion - means any miraculous event that is suited to show that what had been predicted by a prophet would certainly take place. 

See Matthew 12:38; compare note on Isaiah 7:11. A "wonder" - τέρας teras - denotes a portent, or prodigy - something that is suited to excite wonder or amazement - and hence, a miracle. 

The words together refer to the various miracles which were performed by the Lord Jesus and his apostles, designed to confirm the truth of the Christian religion.

According to his will:

As he chose. He acted as a Sovereign in this. He gave them where He pleased, and imparted them in such measure as He chose. 

The sense of this whole passage is, "The gospel has been promulgated to man in a solemn manner. It was first published by the Lord of Glory Himself. 

It was confirmed by the most impressive and solemn miracles. It is undoubtedly a revelation from heaven; was given in more solemn circumstances than the Law of Moses, and its threatenings are more to be dreaded than those of the Law. 

Beware, therefore, how you trifle with it, or disregard it. It cannot be neglected with safety; its neglect or rejection must be attended with condemnation."

B. Secondly, let me say in what I believe

1. I Believe the Spirit releases Power through the preaching of the Word.

I believe the Holy Spirit uses the powerful preaching of God's Word to release His Power.

Romans 1:16 "I am not ashamed of - the preaching of the - Gospel, because it is the Power for the salvation to everyone who believes".

The Word of God is the sword of the Spirit in the ministry.

See Ephesians 6:17 and Hebrews 4:12

Revival, anointment or any other supernatural operation of the Holy Spirit produced under the preaching of God's Word is always a better and safer option.

We have the example of the revival that happens as a result of the powerful preaching of Jonathan Edwards (1703 - 1758) and others who were anointed by the Power of the Spirit of God.

A powerful preaching of the Word of God can release anointment, miracles, revival and even some kind of signs and wonders that are apportioned by God for our times.

But those miraculous operations are not forcefully like the same operations that God have apportioned for the times of Jesus, the Messiah and the Son of God, and for the times of the Apostles of Christ the Eye Witnesses Scriptures of the Death and the Resurrection of Christ.

2. I Believe that in revival the supernatural element is uppermost 

I believe that in revival and other miraculous operations the supernatural element is uppermost. 

We must be clear in our minds that revival and what we call a evangelistic crusade are very different things. In revival the supernatural element is uppermost, and the human elements and activities much less important.

We could say the same for other miraculous operations of the Holy Spirit, where the supernatural element is uppermost.

The Holy Spirit can sometimes act directly and independently of God's Word, but never goes beyond the teaching of the Word of God.

In His Sovereignty God can pours out His Spirit bringing people back to His Word and to live holy lives before God and sacrifice their lives to go and proclaim the Gospel to all creation.

Sometimes that happens as a result of the faithfully prayer of the believers, because Revival can come from the input of believers that living faithfully for God, praying and preaching the Word and living holly lives moves God's hand to bring revival to the Church and to the world.

But revival can also come from God, without any human intervention, when the Church is dead or is asleep living in sin and away from God, and He decides to revive or to awake up the Church by the Power of the Holy Spirit. 

In these cases, the supernatural element is uppermost.

We could say the same for healing and anointment and for some kind of miracles, signs and wonders, where the supernatural element is uppermost.

We must also say that even in forgiveness, regeneration and sanctification there is a supernatural element involved in these operations, otherwise it would not be possible for people to know such experiences.


I I I.  My understanding of Acts 1:8 about the Power of  the Holy Spirit

Acts 1:8 "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth".

We can divide this text in three sections:

A. ""But you will receive".

B.  "power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;"

C.   "and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth".

Let us give a look into these three sections:

A. "But you will receive".

The Holy Spirit came in accomplishment of many Old Testament Prophecies about the coming of the Spirit. 

We can extend the Pentecostal Day's events to all the Book of Acts, where we see the Holy Spirit coming on the Jews Acts 2 the Samaritans Acts 8 and the Gentiles Acts 10 accomplishing the promise about His coming.

These three chapters are the only ones in Acts that speak about tongues, because tongues in Acts are a sign of the accomplishment of the descent of the Holy Spirit promised in the Old Testament.

We also read in the book of Acts about others signs and wonders that accompanied the mission of the Apostles in order to accredit their ministry.

So, I am saying that signs, miracles, wonders that were performed by the Lord Jesus and the ministry of the Apostles, were giving by God to show that they were sent by Him and were designed to confirm the truth of their message, and the signs that accompanied the descent of the Holy Spirit in Acts were to show that the Prophecies of the Old Testament about the descent of the Holy Spirit have been accomplished and a new dispensation began.

Note: If you want to know my complete opinion about tongues in Acts and also in 1 Corinthians 12, you must access my Portuguese blog and read my post about tongues. 

You can also see my post about the Gifts of the Spirit in my Portuguese blog.

But, you realize that I have not said much about POWER in this first section, because Power comes now in our second section.

B.  " power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;"

Signs, miracles, wonders that accompanied the ministry of Jesus and the Apostles are not for our days, but the Power of the Holy Spirit is for the Church until the Gospel will be preached to the ends of the earth.

The Supernatural Power of the Holy Spirit is still for the Church of our days.

The Holy Spirit still wants to release His power, firstly through the powerful preaching of God's Word and the powerful preaching of the Gospel, secondly in revival and other miraculous operations where the supernatural element can be uppermost.

C.   " and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth".

Acts 1:8 is all to do with receiving Power of the Holy Spirit to enable us to be witnesses not just in Judea and Samaria, but also to the ends of the earth.

The Power of the Holy Spirit was not given to keep us happy and well or to be used only for out reach around our "Judea" or "Samaria", but rather to challenge us to leave our comfort zone and be witnesses to the ends of the earth.

Christians quite often are not ready to obey the Great Commission commandment because they don' want to be confronted with the hardships they will find if they go out of their "comfort zone"!

But, we can not spread the Gospel in all Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth, neglecting the biblical truth that in revival and other miraculous operations the supernatural element is uppermost.

Even in salvation, forgiveness, regeneration and sanctification there is an involvement of  the Supernatural Power of the Holy Spirit, otherwise it wouldn't be possible for these operations to take place in the lives of the believers.

There is no salvation without a Supernatural intervention of God in people's lives!

Many preachers believe that in transcultural evangelism the Holy Spirit can use more frequently His Supernatural Power in order to protect God's servants from danger and to break human and diabolic obstacles in order to open the way for the preaching and acceptance of the Gospel.

Missionary Hymn of the Twentieth Century:
“So Send I You”

So send I you to labor unrewarded,
To serve unpaid, unloved, unsought, unknown,
To bear rebuke, to suffer scorn and scoffing-
So send I you to toil for Me alone.

So send I you to bind the bruised and broken,
O’er wand’ring souls to work, to weep, to wake,
To bear the burdens of a world aweary-
So send I you to suffer for My sake.

So send I you to loneliness and longing,
With heart ahung’ring for the loved and known,
Forsaking home and kindred, friend and dear one-
So send I you to know My love alone.

So send I you to leave your life’s ambition,
To die to dear desire, self-will resign,
To labour long, and love where men revile you-
So send I you to lose your life in Mine.

So send I you to hearts made hard by hatred,
To eyes made blind because they will not see,
To spend, tho’ it be blood, to spend and spare not-
So send I you to taste of Calvary.

In conclusion I would like to say that I believe in the "Five Sola" of the Reformers:

 

Sola Scripture

Sola Grace

Sola Fide,

Solus Cristos

Soli God's Glory

But I also believe in "Solus Spiritus" - and in the Supernatural Power that God can still apportioned to us in our days throughout the Holy Spirit to go and "be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth".
