In His Image: Part One

   Welcome everyone to Spirit and Truth Ministries blog site. I pray that everything I wrote about thus far on my blog site has been a source of strength and encouragement in your walk with God. This blog starts the in his image series. This series I will be writing about how mankind was created in the direct image of God himself in every way. This lesson series will be discussed from the book of Genesis Chapter 1. In Genesis 1:11-12 God explicitly says that every fruit tree and herb yielding seed was to produce after their own kind. Meaning God created apples to produce apples and oranges to produce oranges. To be specific because God is a specific and straight forward God. A red apple tree can only produce red apples and a navel orange can only be produce by a navel orange tree. So each apple and orange tree was created by God to produce according to each specific tree.
     Next, Genesis 1:20-21 God created every creature of the sea and every winged bird to produce after their own kind(specific species). For example, every whale of the sea was created by God to reproduce whales but also according to their specic kind(species) and the same law of creation applied to every winged bird. Further down in Genesis 1:24-25 we have the beast of the field, cattle, and creeping thing(this includes every bug and insect)created by God to reproduce and their own kind(specific species).
      Lastly, we have us MANKIND. In Genesis 1:26-27 where God plainly tells us that he created mankind in his very own image. In the very expressed image of God. That means a man(husband) and woman(his wife) was commanded by God to reproduce children that would be the direct expression of God himself but we all know how that turned out when we read Genesis 3:1-16 and Genesis 5:1-3. So the law of creation applied to four areas:
  1. The fruit trees and herb yielding seed(including plants, trees, and flowers).
  2. The creatures of the sea and every winged bird.
  3. The beast of the field, cattle, and creeping thing(including bugs and insects).
  4. Mankind
        The number four has various spiritual meanings and applications. Propheticaly it means worldwide(global)impact. By way of the four corners of the earth: North, South, East, and West. So EVERYTHING that God created MUST BE in line with his laws of creation that he established.Next week I will write and define in detail how being created in the image of God applies to mankind and what it means in relation to our lives here on this very earth according to God's law of creation. God bless you much and dearly.

Being Defiled Part 2

  Kingdom Greetings, to you all in the name of Jesus Christ Our Saviour. During this blog, I will be explaining how both prescription drugs and over the counter drugs, recreational drugs and alcohol are factors which can lead to us being defiled.  These three classes of drugs that mentioned above in addition to alcohol impacts our mental awareness and our ability to make decisions. Whenever we consume any of these three classes of drugs or alcohol it opens up our minds to influences and communications from Satan and his demonic forces. How? It is Satan as well as his demonic forces that influence our thoughts, actions, words, and our decisions. These demonic influences leads us to commit the following sins that defiles us: Fornication Adultery Lying, stealing and robbing Murder Sexual Assault and date rape Violence of all sorts Sexual Misconduct Disobedience to the law (driving under the influence).    If we were to conduct a statistical analysis each...

Laws of Marriage(Guidelines)

  I would like to thank you all for reading my blogs. I also want you to know that I truly appreciate you all. Welcome back. I am going to put forth a list for us all to follow as it pertains to the mind of Christ and as it is written in the holy scriptures( GOD'S recorded word ) concerning the principles and teachings of the laws of marriage. Marriage is between one man and one woman. What God has joined together. Let not anyone ( this includes a husband or a wife) put asunder. A person can ( only divorce )their spouse for sexual misconduct( adultery or fornication etc. ). If a person divorces their spouse for sexual misconduct neither a  husband or a wife or the spouse they have   divorced or separated from is permitted by GOD to marry another person. Also God do not permitt for them to engage in another intimate relationship. If a person for reasons  of abuse of any kind or the lives of themselves or that of their children was in danger were to divorce or s...

Being Defiled Part 1

  Kingdom Greetings, Brothers and Sisters of our beloved Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I appreciate you and love you all much and dearly in Christ Jesus. From this point going forward, I will be writing and posting my blogs every other week. The reason for this change is because I have begun writing my third book titled: The Laws Of Marriage. This would be a great opportunity for everyone to read and catch up on blogs that I have already written and posted that are of interest to them.   These next series of my blogs will be centered on being defiled. I will define the word defile, show how a person becomes defiled?, and what is being defiled in the eyes of God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour is? The book of Mark Chapter 7:15-23 will be the main passage of scripture for this lesson series.              Mark 7:15    "There is NOTHING from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things wh...
