"Now
may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your
whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ".(1 Thess. 5:23)
The
Lord often times reveals his purpose in threes. As one studies
Scripture they will begin to see there is a three dimension process to
God's Salvational work. Our spirit is automatically saved when we
receive Christ as our Savior, but our soul is progressively being
saved, and the body follows (3 John 2; 1 Thess. |

My prayer is that you eat the revelation that the Lord longs to feed you:
"Your
words were found and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and
rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O Lord God of
hosts".(Jer.15:16)
We
have the whole counsel of God before us. To discern correctly, we must
not only read the Word of God daily, but also apply what we read, and
do it by the Spirit of God (Spirit and Truth).
In
Jude 16-19 we see an example of those who operate in the flesh. Instead
of their soul following after the spirit, it follows after the flesh. |

"Then
God said, "Let US make man in OUR image, according to OUR likeness...
So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created
him; male and female He created them."(Gen.1:26a,27)
Man
was created as a triune being, made in the image of God Himself. There
are three in the Godhead. There is God the Father, God the Son, and God
the Holy Spirit. In man, who was created in the image of God we are
spirit, soul, and body. The Father is a Spirit, and Jesus is the soul
of the Father, and the Holy Spirit is the manifest presence of both. |
