SETTING OUR MIND ON THE SPIRIT

-

 In the sacred journey of life, we are urged by the timeless wisdom of Romans 8:6 to fixate our mind on the spirit rather than the flesh. Such a choice, as delineated in the scripture, becomes pivotal—opting for the flesh leads to death, but aligning with the spirit begets life and peace. Our minds, the very essence of our being, serve as the canvas upon which our destinies are painted. Choosing to set our minds on the spirit is a conscious agreement with the divine, an intentional rejection of the allure of the flesh. In this agreement lies the promise of life and peace, a state of being synonymous with the nature of God Himself.

 Life, in its truest form, mirrors the essence and content of God. To concur with the mingled spirit is to embark on a profound journey, allowing the divine to permeate every aspect of our being. The more we yield to this spiritual union, the deeper our connection grows, unraveling the transformative power within. Touching the essence of God through the spirit becomes an illuminating experience, guiding us through the dispensation and mingling for our very existence.

 Today, the Spirit of Christ stands as an all-encompassing force. Within its embrace lies the potency of the cross—the power to destroy and the power to nourish. Much like a medicinal concoction, it holds both the killing element of Christ's crucifixion and the nourishing element of His grace. Embracing this all-inclusive Spirit is akin to taking the best dose for our spiritual well-being. The death of Christ, now encapsulated within the all-inclusive Spirit, becomes a potent force capable of eliminating the germs within our being.

Our imperative in this age is to walk in the spirit, a journey that shields us from the snares of the flesh. As Paul affirms in Romans 8:4, walking in accordance with the spirit naturally fulfills the righteous requirements of the law. It signifies that when we choose the path of the spirit, all things fall into divine alignment.

Referencing key scriptures—John 3:6; 4:24; Romans 8:16; 1 Corinthians 15:45; 2 Corinthians 3:17; 1 Corinthians 6:17; Galatians 5:16; and Romans 8:4-6—offers a roadmap for spiritual mastery.

 To the men of this generation, I extend a fervent encouragement: delve into the intricate workings of your inner man. A time is swiftly approaching when physical places of worship may pose challenges. Become adept at navigating the realms of your spirit, cultivate spiritual mindfulness, and witness the resplendent glory that accompanies the unwavering walk in the spirit.
I call you bless

An Epistle to the Church Concerning the Way of Life and Godly Appearance

-
Samuel Abiodun Ojo, a servant of Jesus Christ, called and sent for apostolic formation, the raising of sons, and the teaching of the truth of Christ, to the brethren of the ECN and  to  those who are called by the name of Christ, to the assembly that bears His testimony in this present age: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present world system, according to the will of God. To Him be glory forever. Amen.   I marvel that you are so quickly drifting from the simplicity and authority of the life you received, and are allowing yourselves to be shaped by standards that did not call you, nor give themselves for you. This turning is not unto another gospel, but unto a distortion of the life of Christ, where liberty is confused with license, and grace is separated from transformation.   Let me speak plainly, as one who labo ur s for your souls.   When you received...

The Operation of the Law of Divine Life

-
Romans 6:3-5; 8:2, 29-30; 12:2 What is the law of divine life? In its essence, life is God, and God is life. While it’s not entirely incorrect to say that the law of divine life is simply God or life itself, it’s more accurate—based on the biblical revelation—to describe it as the automatic function of the divine life. A law signifies a natural, unchanging regulation or principle. Therefore, the law of any life form is its inherent characteristic, an innate and automatic function. The higher the life, the more elevated its law. The law of divine life is the innate function of God’s life, and because God's life is the highest life, its law surpasses all others. When I first encountered the phrase "the law of life," my natural understanding led me to associate it with rules meant to curb wrong actions. This view, while not entirely incorrect, falls short of the true biblical meaning. The law of divine life is not merely a regulation to keep us from error. Instead, it is the...

Man with Spirit

-
  God, the Master Creator, crafted man with divine intentionality, forming a being unlike any other in creation. In Genesis 2:7, we find the profound narrative of humanity's genesis: "Jehovah God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul." Here, we witness God utilizing two distinct elements to fashion man—dust for the body and the breath of life to instill the spirit. The dust signifies our physical origin, grounding us in the earth, while the divine breath signifies our spiritual origin, awakening the innermost essence of our being. This breath, the Hebrew word neshamah , became the spirit within man, enabling the soul’s emergence as the bridge between our flesh and spirit. Man is a triune being—spirit, soul, and body (1 Thess. 5:23). The body serves as our outward organ, engaging with the tangible world, while the spirit, as our inward organ, connects us to the Divine. Between these two reside...
