Thank God we have a High Priest who pleads to God for us, for our welfare
and is mindful of us.
Heb.2:6–It has been testified somewhere, what is man that you are mindful of him?
Or the son of man that you care for him.
the worldly meditation out there is self-serving, and some is big business.
And a lot of it draws the tourists, same as architectural monuments etc.
Do you notice how people are drawn to history. Like Ray once said, “ history is a
chronicle of wars”. It’s also full of evil deeds. The carnal mind is incapable of true
Spiritual meditation.
Ray,,” As long as we obey the beast within, we are NOT AWARE of just how evil
this beast really is. As long as we obey our carnal mind ,we are NOT AWARE of how evil our carnal mind is. The carnal mind sees only itself.
Because the carnal mind (of humanity ) is enmity ( deep seated hatred) against God) for it is not subject
to the ( spiritual) law do God, neither indeed can be (is able) so that they that are in the flesh( carnal
minded) cannot please God.( Rom.8:6-8)
Here are a few statements from BT posts that I wholeheartedly agree with.
“ When the beast within is diminishing, the spirit of Christ is increasing. This in itself will
open up some serious spiritual insights.” Joe
“ After we see that we are the beast, we know that there is nothing good within us or of any worth.
Then the knowledge we gain is centred in who He ( Jesus ) is and not self serving knowledge that
feeds the beast.” Robin
“if there is anything worth knowing, it is that free Will is a myth, a lie, and the truth is that God is in control.”Arc
I believe that a total understanding of the sovereignty of God is the most important knowledge
and wisdom that we can acquire.
2 Tim. 1:13…. Follow the pattern of the sound words that you have heard from me,
in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Luke 18:1…. And He told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray
and not lose heart.
Psalm 88:1…. O Lord God of my salvation, I cry out day and night before you.
Porter, I heard Ray say that also, that even if you are paraplegic on you back in bed , you can still
do this because it is spiritual. ( of the mind)
As he thinks, so is he, so think on these things. All the good news .
Gen.8:1…. But God remembered ( mindful) Noah and all the beasts, and all the livestock
that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the earth and the waters subsided.
The troubled waters subsided.Praise God.
