Satan's NET : #1 = Romans 7

Reader,

If you are a born again Christian, then you are already "one with God".. "a New Creation", and "an Heir of God" and a "Joint Heir with Christ".
You are already "seated in Heaenly places" BEFORE you ever even tried to "be a good Chrisitan", when God 1st birthed you into His Kingdom the very instant that you gave God your FAITH IN CHRIST.
= And the reason God did this for you was not because you will try to be good now that you are saved.....its only because "while you were yet a sinner" God Saved you only because you Trusted in Christ...= one time/right then. And God saw this real faith in Christ inside your heart in that moment in time... and that is why you are born again today , if you are truly born again.
Notice carefully, that you did nothing but come to Christ as a SINNER, wanting to be saved, wanting to be forgiven....and God DID SAVE YOU.....He Saved you through the Blood of Jesus, = He saved you through The CROSS of CHRIST.. John 14:6... and this redemption that is based eternally on Jesus finished work on The Cross... is indeed eternal..

Now, If Satan can keep you from understanding this, or if he can get you to stop believing it, then His mission is accomplished in your life.
So. he will get control of your mind if you dont know how to prevent it.........and Paul explains in Galatians 3 that you will become "bewitched". (KJV).. and "taken (mentally) captive at Satan's will",.. 2 Tim 2 (KJV).... unless you know how to prevent it.

Now, lets take a look at one of Satan's perfected "snares" ..= Its a bad theology/soteriology : "NET">... where you will discover that Satan will use the Holy Bible to literally trap your mind in a NET of deception which will ruin your faith, and subsequently end your usefulness regarding God's work, unless you know how to prevent it.
See, that is what The Devil wants to do to God's eternally redeemed, as He can't have you in eternity after you die, because God has now become your Spiritual Father while you are NOW ALIVE..... and you are now become "one with God'... .forever.....born again., and im not talking about your water baptism.

Listen Reader.... If Satan can control your THEOLOGY, so that you are mentally enslaved, (and that is the case for the larger majority of Chrisitans regarding their lack of correct doctrinal understanding of "God's Grace in Christ").. then He has ruined your Christianity......but not your Salvation.

The Happy report is that God's Grace always belongs to His blood bought born again Children....and if you continue to read my Thread and discover that you are "caught in the NET" ....then SAINT let me assure you that you can find your way back to the Light of Revelation knowledge regarding God's Amazing Grace who IS HIS BLESSED SON...... Yeshua The Bread who is now Risen.

Believe it.

Reader,

Lets now dive deeper into one of Satan's NETs....... its Romans Chapter 7.

Listen,

= The law and commandments, when we try to keep them to try to be saved or stay saved..., = energizes, stimulates, and empowers, what Paul has defined for us as our "old man of sin".

Paul Teaches us in Romans 7... that if you try to "self effort" (Keep the law and 10 commandments) as your means of salvation.... in other words, if you are trying to be saved or stay saved by performance of the Law and 10 Commandments, then you become this one...

"that which i want to do, i cannot do, and that which i HATE... that i do".

See that reader? That is the Devil's NET #1

That is the effect the law has on us when we try to use it to be accepted by God, after we are born again.
See, the DEVIL wants you to strive to enter into Heaven, and to strive against sin, because when you are doing that you are not Trusting in Christ for Salvation and Deliverence.
Satan wants you to chase MOSES law and commandments and spend all your self effort trying to be saved and stay saved, because once He has you doing that you are not trusting in Christ.
Listen to me....... Satan does not care what you try to chase, as long as its keeping you from Trusting in Christ to be saved and stay saved.

Understand ??

Reader, The law causes us to want to sin more, because : the power of sin, is THE LAW.... The Law is the power of Sin.
The Law is Holy and Good but it causes our sin nature TO FLAME ON, to COME ALIVE when we chase MOSES law and commandments wrongly believing that this is how we become accepted by God and then try to stay saved the same way.
And because you are trapped in this NET...You will find yourself unable to have peace with God in your own heart that lasts, and you will worry that you can lose your salvation.

Paul explains that you are in this harsh situation...= "WHO will deliever me from this situation"". this "body of death".?

Notice carefully reader that Paul said... "WHO".... not "what law or commandment"....is the DELIVERENCE from trying to be good and failing and feeling always condemned.

Paul is showing us that Christianity is not about "keeping laws and commandments or trying to perform some role playing ACTOR's idea of "trying to be like Christ".. As all this does is allow the law and commandments to condemn you for your failure and keep you locked in that vicious cycle. = The Devil's NET.. #1.

So, the answer is to stop doing that, and turn to God's GRACE instead, and live there.

And who is God's Grace?...

WHO.. is GOD's GRACE ????????????????

A.) Paul then teaches us that .... its through the redemption that is found by being "IN CHRIST", is the FREEDOM from SIN.
See that?
SEE HIM? See CHRIST?.. HE IS GOD's Grace.
And That is a REVELATION, and unless the Christian comes to this revelation knowledge then they can't get out of the condemnation that chasing the Law and commandments causes them to always feel.
So....to stop feeling condemned by the law and commandments, you have to be "made free from the law", like this.....

"Christ is the END OF THE LAW, for RIGHTEOUESNESS...to/for, everyone who BELIEVES"..

The born again "are not under the Law......but under (God's) GRACE"... because the Christian is "IN Christ", and Christ Jesus is : God's Grace.

See it?
See it?

Reader, The answer is not to fight your carnal desires to try to be good as that causes the Law to empower your sin consciousness.
So, the Devil wants you to do that, and stay STUCK as Paul explains is the "who will deliver me.......who can help me".
So, The final answer is to get the revelation that you are always and already "made righteouses" by the BLood of JESUS...
The Born again Christian is always kept in perfect peace with God, based on The Cross of Christ.
So, put your faith THERE and never in yourself or anywhere else.

Realize that we all came to Jesus as a SINNER......and instantly God accepted our faith in Christ to give us His own "imputed righteousness" so that we became "made righteous" by God.
And yet 10 seconds before we were a LIFETIME SINNER.
Understand?.... Don't you remember what you were, right until the instant that God SAVED YOU FROM YOUR SINS? ??
Its not as is we were trying to be good, and living holy....No.......what happened is...>"while we were YET SINNERS" we trusted in Christ for Forgiveness, ,and that is when God gives us His own "Gift of Righteousessness".
See that?
That is the REVELATION that Paul is giving us in Romans 7, but we have to read all of it, and not just stop where the Devil wants us to stop... where is says...>"what i want to do, i can't".

A.) = Being born again "IN CHRIST".... is where there is "now no condemnation". Paul teaches.. So, there is no more ....trying to keep the law and perform for God, to try to be saved or stay saved.

This is Romans 7:25. (KJV)......where Paul teaches us that its only "THROUGH Christ"... that we find our eternal peace with God and our eternal forgiveness, and ZERO Condemnation.

Now, Thd correct way to understand what it means to be under the "the Law"....is simply ......A.) what are you trying to do by self effort to save yourself or keep yourself saved, = is the Law unto you., and Satan wants this to become your failed christianity and your broken faith.
He wants you >>>IN THAT Mental NET<<<.. which is to have the wrong mind because the wrong mind is not REAL FAITH in Christ. That is faith in yourself, and that is where the condemnation comes from, because you can't keep the law.......Its not designed by God to make you righteous. Its designed to demand righteusness from you that you dont have...so there is the condemnation, and so we turn to CHRIST for DELIVERANCE from this condemnation that the Law always brings to you when you try to be saved or stay saved by trying to keep Moses law and commandments.

Reader..

"""" the curse of the law"", is that it causes our "old man" to want to sin and that is why trying to "be good to stay saved" causes you to become TRAPPED in the "NET">... which is the inner fight that Paul is explaining as"". "that which i want to do, i can't, and that which i hate, i do"... and then Paul gives us the ONLY WAY OUT, that is REAL FAITH and REAL Discipleship..

AA.) We must be made free from this "curse of the law", or it will comtinue to enflame our "old man" and this causes a revival of sinful desire within the Christian.
And that is the "body of death" that Paul is showing us in Romans 7..........that is SATAN's NET #1.
Paul teaches us how to be FREE from this, .. He shows us how..

AAA). = IF we want freedom from sin, we have to be made free from the law, as otherwise the Law continues to inflame our "Old man", while it defines us as a sinner .
Paul describes this NET as........>>"WHO will free me", as He can't free Himself and you can't free yourself... reader.

Final Solution???? = Christ is the eternal solution to/for this issue, that Paul defined in Romans 7 as : "that which i hate i do, and that which i want to do, i can't"......as that is the power of the LAW to always cause this situation within you..
Paul is showing us what happens when we try to keep the law and commandments in our self righteous effort to be accepted by God = TOTAL Continual FAIL = and INNER CONDEMNATION that never stops because what is keeping it active is being PURSUED by the Christian.

Do you see the NET yet?
Are you in it?
= Time to get out of it.

Paul then teaches......."Who shall deliver me from this "......and then He explains the answer..= that by being "In Christ"... there is "NOW no condemnation"......and that means that because ""Christ is the END OF THE LAW, for Righteousness""... and"""Christ has redeemed us from the CURSE of the LAW"......then we are made free from the Law that is the "power of sin".

So, when we get this REVELATION, then everything changes within our Christianity as its become as God has created it to exist, vs, us trying and failing to perform our SALVATION for ourselves.

Reader,
your answer to your "sinning" concerns is very simple.
You have to get your faith together so that you REST in the ASSURANCE that What CHRIST has acoomplished on The Cross, is COMPLETED FOR YOU once you BELIEVED.
See that?
That is REAL FAITH in Christ... and anything else isn't real faith in Christ at all.

Now ,
let me reinterate again the situation - the issue that most Chrisitans have , and that is, they are trying to keep MOSES law and commandments = wrongly believing that God will accept them and keep them if they do that.. However, the Law actually and continually empowers their desire to sin because that is what it does.. to them........to everyone.
See that TRAP? That is a NET........and the Devil wants you to stay in this mental carnally minded Trap.
So, the more they try to be good which is really just putting themselves under the Law.....then the more the power of sin is THE LAW which causes them to want to sin MORE........and that is the "curse of the Law" and "Christ has redeemed us from the Curse of the law".

Most Christians are trying to keep what God has supplied as "the Law", that is specifically designed to "make the world guilty before God'..

See their problem?
Do you have it, Reader?
So, they end up lifelong trapped by the Law, under condemnation, trying to stay saved, and that is their broken faith, and their broken Christianity.
They are still saved.....but they are completely Netted by the Devil....= they are stuck in that vicious cycle and there is no hope found there, only condemnation and bitter striving, and total self righteousness.

Here is a supplimentary Thread.
-

Reader,

..... the way that the Devil uses his owned to deceive you using Romans 7, is to teach you that when you read in Chapter 7,.. where Paul says.. "that which i want to do i can't and that which i hate is what i do"........ then you are to misunderstand this as "welcome to your Christianity", you are stuck in that situation.
And Reader there are a legion of Heretics online, and in Pulpits and in UTBE Videos and in books and commentaries who will telll you......."Yet, thats what you are going to have as your Chrisitanity"........ And that is the Devil's plan for you, and that lie is what he Hopes you will BELIEVE.
Have you believed it?

But then..... when the real student of the bible, actually reads the entire Chapter 7....... they read that Paul stops trying to keep the law to try to earn what can't be earned. He comes to a REVELATION that changes everything.
See you can't earn forgiveness from God. You can't earn Heaven. You can't earn His Love. You can't earn God's SALVATION.

So, as Paul was coming into this revelation that the LAW and Commandments can only CONDEMN you.. he then turned to the ANSWER and found the WAY OUT.

Like this........>"there is now NO CONDEMNATION in CHRIST"...... whereas he had been just overwhelmed by the guilt and the condemnation that the Law and Commandments were causing Him to experience.......and once He stopped looking to his own behavior and the Law and the Commandments to be accepted by God, then He found the RELIEF, the PEACE, and the Grace of God that provides it, and that is why He teaches later in Romans 7.....= "there is NOW...... (now and forever)... no condemnation found IN CHRIST".
And who is "in Christ"?
A.) Every born again Christian..........not every water baptized one.....but every BORN AGAIN Christian.

So Reader, what changed?..........What changed, inside this same Chapter is IMMENSE and you have to read it all......As we see that He was still not perfect according to the Law and Commandments, but now, he has found eternal peace with God, and no more condemnation that was already HIS but he had to learn this REVELATION.
And that is what changed, and that is what Romans 7 is showing us.
Paul found answer......He came to the revelation that His relationship with God is not based on his behavior........or his trying to be good enough to earn it by trying to keep Moses Law and Commandments.
Paul got the Revelation that all of that is NOT what God provided us to have eternal life, righteousnes, and peace with God.
Paul then shows us that its all found "IN CHRIST".
Its already happened.......just as soon as a person is born again and the devil does not want to you understand this..

See, Jesus is "made unto us".......everything that God requires to accpet us and keep us forever.
You can read about this in 1 Corin 1:30.......and use a KJV to get the clarity.

Listen Reader, God has made Jesus to be "sin for us"......and the born again are become Righteous based on Christ's finished work on the Cross.
Jesus is our Righteousness, imputed to us....... as a "GIFT" from God. Its Christ's Righteousness that is OURS, and that is why is not of the Law and its Eternal.
And THAT is the REVELATION that you must receive and believe, and once you do, then you'll find the same answer that Paul teaches....= that there is now "no condemnation to those (born again) who are IN CHRIST"......And that is because "Christ is the end of the LAW for Righteousness". And now all the born again posses Him and He Us, and that is to become "ONE with God" "IN Christ" and this means we have received from God "the Gift of Righteousness" and are now "made righteous" by God's Son's Sacrifice.

Reader when we turn to Christ for Salvation, then our sins are dealt with forever by the Blood of Jesus , and our eternal life who is Jesus now comes to live inside us, and Moses LAW and Commandments can never again define us as a sinner, and that is because........The born again are "NOT UNDER THE LAW but UNDER GRACE".... and This Grace of God redefines us for ETERNITY as "made righteous" before GOD, = having received God's "Gift of Righteousnes".. that is the "imputed righteousness"...that Paul teaches about in Romans and Ephesians and in other of His episitles.

Paul declares also that "Christ always gives me the VICTORY".. over sin, the flesh, and the Devil.
And that is true for every born again Chrisitan.......and we dont do this by self effort.....we do this by REVELATION KNOWLEDGE regarding who we have become "in Christ".
