Yes. But there is a cost to experiencing the spiritual walk that is superimposed on this temporal walk. The cost is ALL. The parables of Jesus make that clear....and this can be experienced. When we find the treasure...or are shown the treasure...think "Born-again of the Spirit"....we have to BUY THE FIELD in order to make it ours. That buying is SOOO frowned upon by modern religionists...it is seen as "works"...because they hate to have to go to God or give up their lives. Better to stick with what is free and easy. God is evaluating us on our worthiness the way we either take Him seriously...or ourselves...as so many do.Someone posted scripture yesterday from around John 3:13, "And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven." I would say, the Holy Spirit "clicked" a thought in me, which I hadn't connected or thought of. This is going back to earlier in John 3, where Jesus tells Nicodemus, "Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."
Our flesh's natural realm is this earth. So when we walk by the flesh, we are physically walking here. However, if one is born again, they have a spirit given by God, which is from heaven. So then one can say the natural realm for the spirit, is not the earth, but the heavenly realm? So, if one is walking in the spirit, naturaly, they would be walking in the heavenly realm? As that is where the spirit is from? Just some thoughts to share, and see what others think.
We need a full surrender to enter into the kingdom realm. Jesus said..seek first the kingdom...but for MANY reasons, nobody does it. In the past people had physical excuses..I just married a wife, I just bought some oxen...etc.... But today people use spiritual excuses...as in I already have everything I need. I am rich and in need of nothing. Thus, these TOTALLY ignore the upward call in Christ.
