God's Method of Imparting the
Divine Nature to Man is
Righteousness by Faith.
God's Arrow into the heart:
Proverbs 23:26 - My son, give me your
heart, and let your eyes observe my ways.
The Heart -
Your Real Self - God's plan
Heart -
Matthew 15:19 - For out of the
heart proceed evil thoughts, murders,
adulteries, fornications, thefts, false
witness, blasphemies:
Mind -
1 Samuel 2:35 - And I will raise
me up a faithful priest, that shall do
according to that which is in mine heart and
in my mind: and I will build him a sure
house; and he shall walk before mine
anointed for ever.
Will -
John 7:17 - If any man will do his
will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether
it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
Soul -
Matthew 26:38 - Then saith he unto
them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even
unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with
me.
Your Real Self -
1 John 3:9 - Whosoever is born of
God doth not commit sin; for his seed
remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because
he is born of God.
Isaiah 1:19 - If ye be willing and
obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
John 1:12, 13 - But as many as
received him, to them gave he power to
become the sons of God, even to them that
believe on his name: Which were born, not of
blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of
the will of man, but of God.
John 7:17-18 - If any man will do
his will, he shall know of the doctrine,
whether it be of God, or whether I speak of
myself. He that speaketh of himself seeketh
his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory
that sent him, the same is true, and no
unrighteousness is in him.
1 John 5:4 - For whatsoever is
born of God overcometh the world: and this
is the victory that overcometh the world,
even our faith.
1 John 8:14 - And this is the
confidence that we have in him, that, if we
ask any thing according to his will, he
heareth us:
Matthew 16:24-25 - Then said Jesus
unto his disciples, If any man will come
after me, let him deny himself, and take up
his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will
save his life shall lose it: and whosoever
will lose his life for my sake shall find
it.
God's Arrow out of the Heart
God works from the inside out.
Romans 8:9-11 - But ye are not in the
flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the
Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have
not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
And if Christ be in you, the body is dead
because of sin; but the Spirit is life because
of righteousness.
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus
from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up
Christ from the dead shall also quicken your
mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in
you.
1 John 4:12 - No man hath seen God at
any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth
in us, and his love is perfected in us.
Galatians 4:19 - My little children,
of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be
formed in you,
Satan's arrow toward the Heart - Counterfeit
Religious Zone
Genesis 3:5 - For God doth know that
in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall
be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good
and evil.
Satan works from the outside in.
James 1:13-15 - Let no man say when he
is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot
be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any
man:
But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away
of his own lust, and enticed.
Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth
sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth
forth death.
Matthew 4:1-3 - Then was Jesus led up
of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted
of the devil.
And when he had fasted forty days and forty
nights, he was afterward an hungred.
And when the tempter came to him, he said, If
thou be the Son of God, command that these
stones be made bread.

shall say to his father or mother, It is

And ye suffer him no more to do ought for
his father or his mother;

delivered: and many such like things do ye. |

sheep. |

1:13,14
For ye have heard of

more exceedingly zealous of the traditions
of my fathers. |

Bring forth therefore fruits meet for
repentance:
And think not to say within yourselves, We
have Abraham to our father: for I say unto
you, that God is able of these stones to
raise up children unto Abraham.
And now also the axe is laid unto the root
of the trees: therefore every tree which
bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down,
and cast into the fire. |

cheek, turn to him the other also.
And if any man will sue thee at the law, and
take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak
also.
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a
mile, go with him twain.
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him
that would borrow of thee turn not thou
away. |

with their eyes and hear with their ears,

should be converted, and I should heal them. |

unto you, He that entereth not by the door
into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some
other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

shepherd of the sheep.
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep
hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep
by name, and leadeth them out.
And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he
goeth before them, and the sheep follow him:
for they know his voice.
And a stranger will they not follow, but
will flee from him: for they know not the
voice of strangers. |

waste?
For this ointment might have been sold for
much, and given to the poor. |

woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon
me.

this ointment on my body, she did it for my
burial.

Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in
the whole world, there shall also this, that
this woman hath done, be told for a memorial
of her. |
