The Message, Simply Put

Why say it again?  It's been said beautifully and completely over and over.  Why not just go on and not bother?
Because we are commanded to say it, and it never grows old.
Most people are on a road to destruction, never dreaming that there is such a thing as a spiritual world.  They have never experienced it, so it's like telling an ant about brain surgery.
There must be a gentle nudge from the supernatural to be awakened to a receptive spirit.
We are body, soul, and spirit, but the spirit remains DEAD until awakened by rebirth.  Spiritual rebirth.
This is faith.  This is repentance.
Oh, yes, the soul seems to be full of emotional and profound yearnings for the spiritual, but it is seeking a false wholeness.
Only the spirit can know the things of the spirit.
That is so frustrating to those of us who have humbled ourselves and accepted Christ in faith as Savior.  We can only pray that those people we truly love, but are spiritually blind, can be touched by their need for forgiveness, for faith, for truth.
No, nothing but faith in Christ will awaken the spirit.
Jesus said to Nicodemus in John, "You must be born again."  He refers to the spirit.  Paul indicates that the spirit is dead until spiritual rebirth.
Don't even try to understand the things of the spirit unless you have repented, accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior, and put your trust in Him.
It is impossible with out Christ, but all things are possible with Him!
Do it today.  Don't wait.  The things of the Spirit are the most fulfilling things of life, and it is simply heartbreaking that so few of us know and reap the benefits of knowing Christ.
The power is overwhelming, and the love is all-encompassing.
Yes, it is hard to give this message. To open a new world to anyone is nothing short of miraculous.
But miracles do happen everyday.  Just listen!
