The Perfected People: Your emotion is not the sit for doctrine, but the platform of worship. Those were the words God whispered into my spirit as I knelt on the alter in church this Easter morning during worship section. I was carried away in worship as the choir was worshiping, and for some reasons something came into my mind to bother me about something the guest minister in my friends church had said a day earlier and how some people might be taking it or feel about it. And as the thought seems to want to distract from my worshiping even though I was on my knees and laying on the alter, God spoke in that instant to my spirit, saying, Your emotion s not the bases of doctrine, but the platform of worship. Meaning, how we feel about truth is not the bases of its justification. Truth is what it is regardless of where we are in our mental strength or spiritual maturity or ability to comprehend or handle it. And in that instant, the message The perfected ones started flowing through my soul as the Spirit was ministering further to me to expand on that word God had said about truth and the emotions. We are in a time when we are so given to humanism and our feelings that we are not good at following things that does not feel right. Meanwhile we are not considering where we are when things met us; and our interpretations based on how things feels is never a healthy foundation for viewing or judging anything. We are poor with instruction followings and we like convenience more than completeness or spiritual/mental development. Our emotion is the expression of the will and motions of our soul. While our mind is the sit of our souls development to empower our souls will and motions. And until the sit of the soul is worked on, we dont truly know what we want nor can trust how we feel about things. The moment the mind fails to comprehend a thing, the emotions kicks in, and what we feel or the way we perceive or interpret things become impaired, subjective and subjected to manipulation and manipulates us from what true reality is. Talking about the perfected ones or perfection in Christ, it begins with being born again, which happens in your spirit man; but the end of it is the salvation of your soul. 1 Peter 1:9 King James Version (KJV) Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. The salvation of your soul is its conversion that comes by the renewing of the mind; this allows for a transformed life, which is the redirection of our will and desire that becomes the empowerment of the emotion above the motions/feelings from our fallen nature. This is emotional maturity and emotional intelligence that allows you to see, accepts and represent truth as it is, not as it feels. And only the faith exercised in the Word of God as true leads to the conversion/salvation of the soul. Psalm 19:7 King James Version (KJV) The law (or, Word) of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul. The perfected ones are those whose soul have been converted by the Word of God through believe that comes from their love and justification of God by just allowing God to be true and all men including themselves a liar. Romans 3:4 King James Version (KJV) God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written,.. Gods love and truth is the light of life. And it takes faith to begin to see the light of life, not feelings. Because our feelings can operation from the damage that the blows of life has dealt on us. And even our intuition is limited to our own human nature. So, our feelings and intuitions are not bases of faith. We need to exercise faith in the Word of God to be able to walk with Him and we need faith in and love for Him to be His true spiritual children and to access/walk with the mind of the Spirit, which also is the mind of Christ. God wants us to know His will and mind for us and about everything. And this cannot happen without the salvation of our soul, which has to do with our mental perception, the turning of our will and desires upwards which makes us to live/express a transformed life in/with God and towards the world. The bible said, without faith it is impossible to please God. God wants the best for us, but to get it we must walk in faith and to have faith we must believe in and feed on the Word until it changes us without us bailing on its truth every-time it challenges us and demands or requires something of us that inconvenience us. Everything in the Word is not convenient, but everything about the Word is true. And we have to trust it for it to be able to transform and build us to where we need to be, which is to be one with it and one with God; thats when God can trust us and entrust us with spiritual matter and bring us into kingdom riches as promised. This is when your emotions can worship in adoration, unhindered and with full purity, when you do not make it the sit of judgement or doctrine, but of worship and what you use in celebrating God faithfulness to His Word, and celebrating His love and truth as comprehended by your renewed/empowered mind that lead to the conversion of your soul that manifests as the transformation of your whole life!
