In most cases, this condition of conscience exists primarily in the believer, however, it may also exist to some extent in the unsaved individuals who choose to live a life of forgiveness. A conscience is considered godly or healthy, when it is described as: Good conscience, Purged conscience, Pure conscience, Perfect conscience, Convicted conscience, and Conscience void of offence.
Every man owns a conscience, even though the condition of that conscience will vary widely from person to person, saved to unsaved, nation to nation and generation to generation. A conscience is considered ungodly when it is described as: conscience affected by dead religious work, weak conscience, wounded conscience, defiled conscience, evil conscience, and seared conscience.
There are three vital elements concealed in the spirit of man: conscience, perception and compassion. The conscience (suneidesis) is the organ of your inner man, the first organ that opens in the spirit man. In the Bible, the word of God talks about 11 different kinds of conscience (godly and ungodly). Conscience is the thinking ability of your inner man. Hence, a clear conscience is an open eyes and the more the conscience is opened, you will have sleepy visions and awakening visions. The funda...
Is the "Law" the Ten Commandments delivered to and through Moses or is the "Law' the Old Testament as a whole? In reality, the "Law" is bigger than that! There is the difference between "operating the law" and "under the law". The believer in Christ Jesus operates the law while the unbeliever is under the law. The believer is under law to Christ; and the unbeliever is under the law of sin and death. Grace in itself is "Law" that regulates the life of the believer. So, the believer is under law t...
Appertaining the concept of sin, there is sin as nature (hamartia) and sin as actions (hamartano) in Greek respectively. However, sin can be categorized into SIN THAT IS UNTO DEATH and SIN THAT IS NOT UNTO DEATH. SIN THAT IS UNTO DEATH by the believer is different from hamartia. SIN UNTO DEATH regarding the believer is when he speaks against the Holy Spirit or blasphemes against the Holy Spirit. This is the second dimension of SIN UNTO DEATH whereas the first dimension is the denial and rejectio...
The Anointing means to be found or chosen by God. When you are located by God, you are anointed, then God will send a man higher than you in the things of the Spirit to pour oil upon you for confirmation. The anointing is neither initiated by man nor a bottle of oil. Therefore, the pouring of oil on the head of anyone who has not been found, chosen and anointed by God, IS A WASTE!
There are two kinds of overcomers in the world or in the kingdom of God: overcomers by faith and overcomers by works. However, the dream of God for the believer is to become overcomers by works. The overcomers by works are those growing according to the measure of the standard of Christ and the standard of the Holy Spirit respectively.
One is born again because he believes in his heart and confesses with his mouth that Jesus resurrected from DEATH. The death of Jesus doesn't get anyone born again. The cross was merely a means to an end, it was not the end itself. Jesus did not only die, but he also resurrected, begetting the new man. Therefore, Joint resurrection with Jesus is what gets a person born again in Christ.
It must be understood that the death of Jesus Christ has never and will never get anybody born again. If you believe that you are born again because Jesus Christ died for your sins, you are sadly mistaken and not born again.
Poreumai denotes a traverse with a profoundly negative connotation. It speaks of a departure from life to death. Poreumai is the walk of a backslider or one on the road of apostasy.
Orthopodeo denotes an upright walk or measuring up to the established standard. In Orthopodeo, you become the reference point; the ultimate of everything that everybody would want to measure up to and attain.
Emperipateo walk means to be occupied among persons, to perambulate in a place or to conduct oneself. Where the proof of God becomes your natural estate, so when you speak, it is the unleashing of divine power and creative force from within. Thus the source of "Peripateo" of the overcoming believer is the "Emperipateo" of God in him. Emperipateo is where God has come to rest in a place, time or state.
Stoicheo walk means to match in military rank; to arrange in a regular line or to conform to virtue and piety. Stoicheo is the introduction to the rules and regulations of the Spirit. The point in your life where whatever you do is governed and regulated by the Holy Spirit, he decides for you.
In peripateo walk, the believer is to show proof of his or her divinity and ability after the Godly sort. So, you express the divine life of God deposited in your spirit: power, authority and dominion. Peripateo is the walk of faith.
The overcomer is the ultimate desire and dream of God for every believer. However, we must press on towards becoming overcomers by works. Many believers live in the Spirit but only a few walk in the Spirit. There are five kinds of walks in the Spirit Fundamentals of the believer: Peripateo, Stoicheo, Emperipateo, Orthopodeo and Poreumai walk.
Laodicea means the "right of the people". It comes from two Greek words; "Laos" and "Dikea". Laos means "people" and Dikea means "right". The greatest challenge of the church of Laodiceans is allowing people to direct the church and not the Spirit of God. However, the consummate overcomer at Laodicea is permitted to sit on the throne of the Lamb and rules as pantocrator of the universe of God with inherent power.
The name Philadelphia means "the love of the brethren". For all the works that you accomplish in Christ, you have to be grounded in love to be given the key of David. At the church of Philadelphia, the overcomer is made a pillar in the temple of God, then the name of the Tetragramatton of the Father which is Yahweh is inscribed on him, then the name of the New Jerusalem, and Jesus' new name is also written on him.
The name Sardis means the "red ones" or "bloody ones." These ones are enrolled in the heavenly army. At the church of Sardis, the overcomer's name is not blotted out of the Book of Life. There is a big difference between the Book of Life and the Lamb's Book of Life, and these books are not the same. The Lamb's Book of Life is the autobiography of the Lamb's life, while the Book of Life is the book of all living. So, it is in the Lamb's Book of Life where the names of the saints are "apographo" o...
The name Thyatira means "the odour of affliction". Here, Jesus has his eyes as flame of fire and his feet as fine brass. Silver means the process of judgment and Brass also speaks of the verdict of judgment. At Thyatira, the overcomer is given the Morning Star and Rod of iron to rule.
Pergamos means "to be married on the height". It is derived from two Greek words "pergos", that is "elevation"; and "gamos" meaning "to be married". The overcomer at the third level is given the right to eat from the Hidden Manna, participate in the White Stone (bdellium) and to have the three Onyx stones as well.
The word Smyrna is from the word "myrrh" and it means "bitterness". The overcomer goes through tribulation and deaths without it he cannot enter the kingdom talk less of inheriting the kingdom. At the church of Smyrna, you are given a Crown of life and immunity to the second death. The place to seek glory, honour and immortality in our spirit.
The word Ephesus means "to be permitted". Since the prōtos anthrōpos Adam, only the overcomers have access to the fruits of the Tree of life. It is at the church of Ephesus that the overcomer is given the right to eat from the Tree of life.
The seven churches in Asia are things that the believer must overcome here on earth. They are the seven heights that every believer will have to go through to ultimately become the overcomer of this age. Starting from Ephesus and climaxing in Laodicea, Christ is the spectacle with which we are to look at them.
The throne of David was patterned according to the seven churches in the Revelation of Jesus Christ. The throne of David has six steps, the final step is to ascend to sit on the ultimate throne, and that is the seventh. On both sides of the throne were Armrests and a lion stood beside each of them, at either ends of the six steps stood lions.
In heaven, there is the Camp of the Saints and there is the Beloved City, and these two locations in heaven are not the same. That, you are born again and have become a saint, simply means that you are in the Camp of the Saints. However it takes maturity for one to be counted as part of the Beloved City, which is the Heavenly Jerusalem.
The innumerable company of angels; and the General Assembly. The General Assembly is rendered "paneguris" in Greek. "Paneguris" has to do with a feastal gathering in the heavenlies. Thus, there is the church of the firstborn, out of which we have the Paneguris.
Not all who access Heaven can access every room in the Courts of Heaven. Each room speaks of a rank and the man that possesses that rank is the man that can access that room and express its authority. Perfection has to do with ranks. Perfection is mastering one level and moving to the next higher level.
David patterned the entire Israel after the order of the tabernacle. In this pattern, the entire nation was the Outer Court of the Tabernacle, Jerusalem was the Holy Place and Zion was the Most Holy Place. But the fact that a man was an Israelite or Jew didn't mean that he dwelt in the City of David. Israel and the City of David are two different things.
Luchnia is the Greek word for 'lampstand' or 'candlesticks'. The same is 'menorah' in Hebrew or 'nebrashta' in Aramaic. There are three kinds of luchnia: two candlesticks, seven candlesticks and nine candlesticks. In this exposé, the seven candlesticks is what is under tutelage. Which speaks of the seven ascents or heights every Christian in Christ Jesus must grow into, even the Davidic system of governance.
The Greek word for dispensation is "oikonomia" which is translated as "economy". Whenever God sends a man to a dispensation to work, He gives him the Holy Spirit to work with in that economy. After the Church Age in which we are living now, there will be the New Jerusalem Age. And as believers we shall thirst; and need fresh water (Holy Spirit) for the New Jerusalem Age.
