The difference between the sons of God and the sons of the devil, is that the sons of God walk in the truth of God’s Word and the sons of the devil walk in the truth of the world. Since the kingdom of darkness; the kingdom of the world, diametrically opposes the Kingdom of God, the words of the kingdom of the world diametrically oppose the words of the Kingdom of God. Therefore the world shall speak against every word of God and shall cast down and destroy everything that derives from the Kingdom of God. People may come with all kinds of (científico) proofs, Teorias, and doctrines, but if these go against God’s Word and ensure that people leave the words of God and therefore leave the way of God, then man should reject these words, because they are lies. If you don’t reject these lies, but believe these lies above the truth of God, then God shall reject you, because you have rejected Him (Leia também: a reprobate mind delights in sin and takes pleasure in those, who practice sin e ‘Deus rejeitado de muitas igrejas’).
The old man vs the new man
Contemplar, que tipo de amor o Pai nos concedeu, para que fôssemos chamados filhos de Deus: portanto, o mundo não nos conhece, porque não O conhecia (1 John 3:1)
Everything, we see around us has its existence in God and is created through the Word and the power of the Holy Spirit. The whole creation derives from the spiritual realm instead of the natural realm (Leia também: ‘Did God create the heaven and the earth in six days? ou…').
Man walked with God, but because of the fall of man, the spirit of man died and man became separated from God. Man became carnal and sense ruled.
Therefore the difference between the old man and the new man is that the old man is carnal and the new man is spiritual.
The old man is born of the seed of man and is carnal and sense ruled.
The old man has a carnal mind and lives according to the principle, that every natural effect has a natural cause. Por causa disso, the old man lives from the flesh according to the natural (científico) theories and laws and makes use of natural means, métodos, princípios, etc..
The new man is born in Jesus Christ of the Seed of God. The spirit is raised from the death and therefore the new man is spiritual.
The new man has the mind of Christ and lives according to the principle that every natural effect has a spiritual cause. Therefore the new man lives and acts from his position (anointing) as son of God from the Word after the Spirit and calls those things which are not as though they were (Leia também: ‘The two ways to go through a storm').
The spiritual realm revealed in the Old Covenant
God has revealed the spiritual realm and His Kingdom to mankind through His Word. In the Old Covenant God has revealed the spiritual realm to His people by giving them the law and by His words, which He spoke through the mouths of the prophets and by the vinda de Jesus Cristo; a Palavra viva.
The spiritual realm revealed in the New Covenant
Mas quando a plenitude dos tempos chegou, Deus enviou seu Filho, feito de uma mulher, feito sob a lei, To redeem them that were under the law, para que recebêssemos a adoção de filhos. And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, choro, Abba, Father. (Gálatas 4:4-6)
Through the coming, dying and resurrection of Jesus Christ; a palavra, o New Covenant came into existence, which is sealed with His blood (Hebraico 12:24).
Through regeneration in Jesus Christ the new man is created. The new man is no longer the old man. Therefore the new man is no longer a sinner, but the new man has become righteous and holy in Jesus Christ (Oh. Rom 3:25; 5:9, 19; Ef 1:7; Coronel 1:14; 1 Jo 3:7 (Leia também: ‘Você sempre permanece um pecador??').
The Holy Spirit abides in the new man and therefore the will of God is in the mind of the new man and written upon the heart of the new man, so that the new man walks in the Word after the Spirit after God’s wil.
The sons of God walk in the truth of God’s Word
Portanto, irmãos, somos devedores, não à carne, para viver segundo a carne. Porque, se viverdes segundo a carne, vós morrereis: mas se pelo Espírito mortificardes as obras do corpo, vós vivereis. Pois todos os que são guiados pelo Espírito de Deus, eles são os filhos de Deus (Rom 8:12-14)
God’s Word is the truth and God’s Word shall stand forever. Nothing and nobody can do anything about it. No one can change the truth of God’s Word.
Portanto, every theory, every doctrine and opinion, that goes against the Word of God should be rejected, so that man stays obedient to God and walk on His way; the way of life, which leads to eternal life.
When you are renascido and you believe in God, you will believe in His Word and you shall do what the Word says (Leia também: ‘Os ouvintes versus os fazedores').
If you obey the Word, you will obey God and through your obedience, you shall show Him that you ame-o.
Through your faith in Him and His Word and by being a doer of the Word, you shall stay in Him and walk after the Spirit in the truth of God’s Word and therefore you shall walk as the Word in the amor de Deus nesta terra .
