DOES DEATH CHANGE US?


Death has always been something that people over the ages have feared or not feared. Death has always been held to be a part of life and a natural occurrence because we observe death in the cycles of life in all of creation and everything seems to be in a state of decay. We also know in our hearts that death is something that should not be, because we know God has given us some obscure assurance within us that there is an after life. We live our lives and expect to shuffle of this mortal coil when our number is up, we make the most of our lives and try to accumulate as much material gain or wealth as we can to provide a better life for our offspring.

It is good at this time to pray and ask our Father what is truth about death, does death change us?

Let us pray, pray for your eye of understanding to be opened, your heart or spirit to be connected to the heart of your heavenly Father and for His Truth to come to you by revelation of Christ in you, your true self.

" Holy spirit of God, spirit of all life, come to me now and quicken my mind to the knowledge of you, give me the spirit of wisdom and revelation as I read this teaching, AMEN"

Many people go to death as has been the habit over the generations of mankind. Death is only a belief in our minds and it was not a creation of God. Many Christians and others in the world believe in instant glory as they pass into death. Death does not change us, we are spirit, we were with God in the beginning, we became a living soul or a vessel able to contain spiritual information. We have conceived of false gods or false spirits like lust, coveting, pride, fear, rebellion, unbelief, doubt, sickness, limitation, death and many more. Our vessels have been filled with spiritual information or spirits which are not spirits from God and we have become people who are not as God made us to be. This spiritual bank of accumulated information or data is who we are or who we have become. We have been filling ourselves with the wrong spirits over all generations and continued passing lies to our children through traditions and fables until we have become rather well removed from the knowledge of God and virtually unable to reconnect with Him.

Death does not change us as the Bible clearly states. We read about one who had passed on to the spirit realm of the dead and who asked for a warning to go to those who are in the land of the living to warn them about hell and the need for repentance.

Luke 16:19-31
19 "Now there was a certain rich man, and he habitually dressed in purple and fine linen, gaily living in splendor every day.
20 "And a certain poor man named Lazarus was laid at his gate, covered with sores,
21 and longing to be fed with the {crumbs} which were falling from the rich man's table; besides, even the dogs were coming and licking his sores.
22 "Now it came about that the poor man died and he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom; and the rich man also died and was buried.
23 "And in Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far away, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 "And he cried out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue; for I am in agony in this flame.'
25 "But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that during your life you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus bad things; but now he is being comforted here, and you are in agony.
26 'And besides all this, between us and you there is a great chasm fixed, in order that those who wish to come over from here to you may not be able, and {that} none may cross over from there to us.'
27 "And he said, 'Then I beg you, Father, that you send him to my father's house--
28 for I have five brothers-- that he may warn them, lest they also come to this place of torment.'
29 "But Abraham said, 'They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.'
30 "But he said, 'No, Father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent!'
31 "But he said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if someone rises from the dead.'"
(NAS)

We see that this man was not a believer in God but he still wanted to warn others to avoid the torment that comes from being separated from the presence of God as there is a gnashing of teeth and fires of self condemnation. The rich man had not bothered to refine himself and rid himself of worldly spirits and had to undergo a lot of burning in the fires of God's furnace to close the gap and come to the righteousness of God. The man Lazarus had suffered much and been in much tribulation and had purged his soul of self and in his suffering came into a real close relationship with God having rid himself of all pride. The rich man thought he was of good standing in the community but his heart was filthy and needed purifying. The beggar was in poor standing in the community but was pure in heart and had been at the mercy of God. The Bible mentions many examples of people talking with spirits which have passed over and we are warned not to communicate with disembodied spirits who are not ascended to the High place of God. These disembodied spirits still have their worldly beliefs in their souls and they still need to be brought to the full light of the Lord.

As Christians we have our heart set on God and when we pass into death we still press on to follow the way of God and come to perfection. There are many Christians who go to the grave,  who still are very carnal and who have not received much transformation of their souls, they still have the same beliefs that they held as humans on the earth and all carnal thinking will still have to be dealt with before they can enter heaven on earth and join in the second resurrection. Death does not change us, we are only relieved of our outer body which rots down and becomes the dust of the earth again. The plan of God is to convert the dirt into Holy ground and our body is our inheritance, which becomes transformed by the renewing of our minds. This renewing of our minds means that we get rid of all the misconceptions of our minds and put on the mind of Christ which is to do the will of the Father and the will of the Father is to establish His Kingdom in the earth which we are. We are the Temple of God and He wants to establish His rule and reign in our lives. He wants to come and live in His Temple that we are, He does not want us to allow our bodies to go to the grave. Our spirit was dead and dying in Adam but in Christ we have new life, which will regenerate our inner man and raise our body into incorruptibility and immortality.

Death does not change us, doing the will of God changes us as we allow God to flow into His house. Death is our enemy and we are to learn how to overcome death by communion with God. Death is the last enemy to be overcome and we have victory in Jesus even now if we want to believe it. We can walk in resurrection power and no longer believe that we are sinners. Sin brought death and Jesus has taken sin and death to death, so we no longer are obliged to die. Jesus has tasted death for every man and Adam is resurrected from the curse of death which he believed in the garden of Eden and which was passed to all of his offspring. We now are brothers and sisters to Jesus and we are in the new creation. Repent and change your mind about the way you think. No longer think with the limited mind of Adam but set your mind on the spirit which is the mind of God, the creator of the universe and be transformed and regenerated receiving the spiritual DNA of your heavenly Father.

Our DNA has been degenerating since Adam and our spiritual death has caused our bodies to degrade. It is the spirit that gives life and controls the DNA to function, the DNA is also degraded and not functioning to full capacity and in fact has need of new information. When the DNA is not building our bodies or repairing our bodies then it is because our spirit man is dying. When our spirit man is Christ then we build a new body from the inside as the outer man perishes, even as we go about our daily life in the spirit constantly in communion with the Father. Scientists today are playing with the human genome and trying to find ways to heal this dying race but they are only revealing the mighty hand of our creator. No one can play with God because God is spirit. Scientists may learn how to shuffle encoded information within the genetic structure of the DNA but this is infantile and it is still playing God. They will wake up one day and see another law at work which is the spirit of life which orders and places all of the seed of man into its marvelous array and which builds each one of us by the power of God. Man is studying and believing in the art of cryonics to preserve life and if they could only see how stupid this is they would repent immediately and ask for forgiveness for trying to do things their way and not trusting in our creator who holds all things in the palms of His hands. The DNA takes building blocks and fashions them into a structure of perfect form which is the human body which is fearful and wonderfully made and any one who has studied the body will know just how marvelous it is. The spirit man is formed as each cell divides and the body takes shape, our spirit man is intertwined with the fabric of our natural man. The spirit man controls all of the body functions as it speaks to the DNA and governs our every life nature, which is in the seed of life and we live life according to our nature. We have a human nature and when we receive the divine seed then we live our life according to our new nature which is the nature of God. People who think that they can take a dead body and make it live again have another think coming. When the body dies then it is the spirit man which has vacated the vessel and life is in another plain or realm. The body remains as a compilation of building blocks which have been fashioned by the seed of life through the DNA, the DNA still remains but life has gone from the person. The DNA is made from the dust of the earth just like every other part of our vessel is made from the dust of the earth. There is not one part of our person, which is not made from the elements of the earth except our spirit man which came from God and is a part of God, we are His offspring.

When we have received the engrafted Word of God then we start to regenerate and life comes to a dying body. Our mind then aligns properly with the organ we call the brain and the brain then produces all of the correct proteins and amino acid and all nutrients to sustain a healthy cell life and a healthy body. When God comes into us with His full potential then we will be transfigured and receive a glorified body which radiates light and life. We will have a body like Jesus has, the body that He appeared to the eleven behind closed doors as He walked through the wall and ate with them. Jesus has transcended time and space and all the natural laws of the universe and we will also have a spiritual body when we convert the dirt and become Holy ground. So sublime yet so profound. Hallelujah! Praise be to our mighty God who is making His sons in the earth.
 

"Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven, AMEN."
 
 
 

Exod 25:8

8 "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them.

(NIV)

1 Cor 6:19-20

19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you
have from God, and that you are not your own?

20 For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body.

(NAS)

John 14:23

23 Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father
will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.

(NKJ)

At the end of the ages God will have made His habitation with all of mankind each one of us
being glorified in our own Temple and making up a spiritual house to the Lord, the Fathers
house.

Rev 21:3

3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men,
and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them,
and be their God.

(KJV)
 

Rom 12:1

1 I urge you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, {which is} your spiritual service of worship.
(NAS)

Jesus presented His body for service and we are to do the same. Jesus died and rose again and tasted death for all of us, so we need to be filled now with His life giving spirit to receive eternal life as we ascend spiritually and come out of our human nature, putting on His divine nature. Surrender you mind, will, emotions, your heart and your body to Jesus and live forever.
