We need to be made free, IF we are going to become the servants of righteousness (Rom 6:18). Many believers already think they are free, because they don�t know that they need to be made free, which this position is death (6:22, 20, 23). These believers need the gift of God to have eternal life through Jesus Christ (6:23). IF they knew this gift of God they would have asked for it (Jn 4:10). This gift of the Holy Spirit is so that we would be by the will of God [rather than still being in �our own will�] (Heb 2:4); Wherein our soul is separated from our spirit, so that we can be by the will of God (4:12, 2:4).
The Question is: Are you going to be obedient to this doctrine, which has been delivered unto you? (Rom 6:17). For we MUST be born again to be in spirit [which has nothing to do with saying some prayer](and we can�t be in spirit unless our soul has been separated from our spirit see Heb 4:12) (Jn 3:6). IF anyone is going to do the will of God they MUST know this doctrine of God in Christ (Jn 7:17-16). We either have obedience to this doctrine or we are in sin unto death (Rom 6:18-16). God forbids those who are under grace to be in this sin (6:15).
For if to will [our own will] is still present in us, we do not know HOW to perform [God�s will] in I do, for we are herein evil! (Rom 7:18-19). To will is therefore that sin that is dwelling in us to I do [in our own will and way] (7:17). Those herein found are in I do by that consent of the law (7:16); Wherein they do what they do not allow, which is what they hate [because they can�t do what they promise to do which is to love](7:15). For those who are sold under this sin ARE carnal! (7:14); And when they herein are found by the commandment [to love], they become exceedingly sinful: For herein their sin appears as sin unto death (7:13).
Love kills them by their occasion [because they are under the law, not under grace] (7:11). For when love comes upon them they have a sin revival (7:9). To be in love by their occasion is concupiscence merely a lusty desire (7:8). We do not know or have an experience of this sin [of I do by I will], unless the law said: Thou shall not covet/take possession of another person, or thing (7:7). Jesus said take care, beware that covetousness possessiveness does NOT become your lifestyle (Lk 12:15); Otherwise you cannot be rich toward God, because you are just out for yourself (12:21). Note that we cannot do anything [for God for our own self] (12:26).
This is why we can become so doubtful in mind as we seek to eat and drink (12:29); And this is because we are into seeking to do [God�s will by �our will� for our own interests]: Rather know that the Father knows what we need [to have to do for Him] (12:30). And so we need to seek the kingdom of God first, so that He can add all things unto us [to live unto God; instead of unto self] (12:31). Don�t be afraid of seeking the kingdom of God like this, because it is the Father�s good pleasure to give to those who are not self-interested (12:31-33). Don�t be into what you have possession of, [because of covetousness], when you can have treasure in heaven (12:33); And then you can be a light of your Lord�s will by your WAITING upon Him (12:35-36).
I hope that you can see how to make the necessary switch in seeking, so that you can have all that is needed to live unto God in this world without having to sweat it out like most. Wherein you too can also have the spiritual life, which is not in that sin of the will in �I have to do�, because you are in what God is doing, so that you can speak of this, the light of what God can do unto others. Are you waiting to speak like this to others? If so, then God is working to bring you together with others to be this light in the entire world.
Do you have the patience to thus wait upon the Lord to work everything out, so that He can get the best for Himself with you for others?? IF your life is just about YOU, there is no need to wait, because you are good to go. However, it�s not just about you; it�s about as many people as God is given the time to work with, so that you can work with them for His glory. How much time are you willing to give to Him? Note this willingness to give to God is manifestly measured by how much time He gives to us to be in His word, wherein we learn from Him. This is the blessing from Jesus unto those who wish to have rest for their soul (Mat 11:29).
As you can now see this prophecy of holy men, who were moved by the Holy Spirit is no private interpretation of one verse of Scripture (2Pet 1:2-12). Only false teachers are in some pernicious way, which speak evil of this way of truth (2:1-2). Jesus is this way of truth unto life (Jn 14:6). Don�t be troubled by it�s things, because they are so (14:1-2).
