EVERY MAN HAS THE SPIRIT OF GOD No I am not dreaming but quoting scripture. The first book of Genesis (1-26) states that God Himself said let us make mankind in Our image and likeness, and let him have authority over everything that comes upon the face of the earth. Now we need to stop here and allow this scripture to seek into our hearts, before reading further. The reality that God created you in His image and likeness, that you may be a representative of His, on earth, is a truth that can only be understood within the heart, then it is revealed to the mind. To attempt to use your mind to discover your God given image is backward, and accounts for all the confusion surrounding God’s word. Once we accept the truth of being God’s image, we can read the scriptures and receive revelation knowledge about the true God. The absence of a true foundation of God the Father accounts for mankind problems. The Word of God says God blew the breath of life into everything that has a breath, including mankind. God is Spirit, and it was this Spirit that gave life. Therefore life comes from God. The life that was given to mankind be-fore birth is the life of the Spirit. After birth mankind’s flesh covers the Spirit, but God did not recall His Spirit, and the proof of his Spirit is the breath. This means mankind came on earth with the Spirit of God, the Spirit of love was breathe into every man, that’s why babies are born alive. Well, you say, a person that does bad things cannot have the Spirit of God in him. Sorry, but if he is alive he has the Spirit of God. The difference between a bad person and a good person is, the good person is in touch with the Spirit of God within, and the bad person is out of touch with the Spirit within. Since God is within every person why don’t everyone live Godly? Let me answer this question with a question. Let us take a family named Robinson and give them a tradition of marrying tall women only. The third generation Robinson comes alone and marries a midget. Does his decision stops him from being a Robinson? No. In the same way, though we have the Spirit of God within, we often decide against Its leading. But this does not cause God to withdraw His Spirit from us. If God did withdraw His Spirit mankind and nothing else would live. Ok, now that I have accepted that every man has the Spirit of God, explain to me why don’t they use it? If you are unaware that the Spirit of God is within, it is hard to communicate with It. It would be the same as being married to someone you know nothing about. How could you communicate properly? When a person is in touch with the Spirit, it can only be through love. That is why children that are raised in love don’t hurt. But, we have not been taught the message Jesus came to teach, but the message about Jesus personality, and His death on the cross, leaving a void for the knowledge of Jesus primary subject, which was God the loving Father. Jesus was the first to say, my people are destroyed because of the lack of knowledge about God the Father. We are falling short of the Image of God, because we don’t know we are in God’s image. There is no way you can stop someone from greatness if he is raised with the know ledge that he is the image and likeness of his heavenly Father. Now you may say you know someone who was raised in love, but turned out to be a mess. I’m sorry to burst your bubble, but a person that knows nothing, but love can only love. The chances of a child raised in truth, turn-ing bad, is equal to black paint turning white, as you apply it. We are what we are taught. For parents to teach love they must know love. Love is from the Spirit of God, and those unfamiliar with love cannot do lovely things, for a length of time. Jesus also said we could tell whether a person’s heart was in the Image of God by the way he treats his fellow man. Jesus was the friend of mankind, and he offered the kingdom of his Father to all. But, mankind has rejected this simple truth and replaced it with doctrines of man which says God allowed His image to be born in sin. Well this is about anti-Christ as one can get. It would take a revengeful, ignorant, and shortsighted God to allow his crowning glory of creation to be born in sin. The birds are not born in sin, nor were they created in God’s image, yet they sing praises daily and take flight at will. Why? Because they are not burdened with the though of being acceptable to God. How did the very image of God fall to the depths of not knowing God as Father, and believing God would allow him to be born in sin? Sorry to upset your supposedly knowledge of whom God is, and what He expects from mankind. But, God don’t want His image groveling in the dirt and begging for forgiveness that is why He sent mankind prophets to show them the way back to the kingdom of Fatherhood. Living under the burden of sin has closed mankind ears to the truth that God created us in His image so He could extend His kingdom on earth. Once we see our selves as the image we were created to be, nothing can stop us, from reaching all the greatness God wants us to obtain. But, contrary to the image of God in every man is his will. If he decide to work against the image of God, God will not insist on him changing his mind. God gave us a choice because He didn’t want robots. To discover the image of God in you is to discover your purpose for being on earth.
