27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. - 1 John 2:27.

Grace is two becoming one. The only one that can show you that is; the Holy Spirit!

If you take the scriptures as they are written, the moment you believed you became one with Christ. In death, in burial, in resurrection, and in ascension. One with the Godhead bodily. When Christ died you died - when he was buried you were buried..when he resurrected you resurrected..when he ascended you ascended!

Seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. The point I want to make is; the only person that can teach you is; the Holy Spirit. Scripture bears that out! but what is important about that as Jesus said. He will teach you me..he will show you me. Very important to Christianity to understand the Holy Spirit and his ministry. There is alot of teaching on the Holy Spirit..alot of good teaching, and some not so good. If you do not have the Holy Spirit where the scriptures place him..then you miss out on the greatest of blessings to have the Holy Spirit teach you Christ.

Having the Holy Spirit as a teacher is a blessing..but to have him teach you Christ is to have him in his main ministry to the body of Christ. The Holy Spirit is not your life..he has come to reveal that life to you..which is Christ. I have had council sessions with people to where they are ready to give up. I don't know where we would go but they are at a breaking point and need something and they need that relief quick because it has gone on far to long.

The best answer for those that are coming to an end of self is; give the Holy Spirit a chance to do what he is supposed to do in the body of Christ. You must see everything in Christianity is at a; mind issue. I don't know if issue is the right word..but everything in spirit is taken care of, and now we are learning in mind what has happened in spirit. That is what growth in Christianity is; it is spiritual growth into the things of God..in mind to know what happened in spirit, and it settles the believer into the thing's of God.

We must say at this point; 'yeah the deep things of God' is Christ in you..but that has to come with knowledge. I tell people all the time.. to be themselves, you are created in the image and likeness of God. That is who you are, who you were created to be. What needs to come with that is knowledge.. if you are going to be yourself you have to be yourself in Christ with knowledge. You are a new you, a new self, and that is the expression that is lived based on knowledge. You cannot live anything you do not know!

I am suspicious of messages like this. I don't think you are going to find a scripture that says "be yourself."

It is more like take on Christ.

New Christians are at risk. They do need to learn the Word of God and the Spirit of the Gospels. It takes time, that is why I say be good and do good. The details they can read in the Bible. The morality is important because how can you repent if you do not know morality, how can you change if you do not know what is wrong. How far do you go into the Christian life sinning or living a sinful life style.

The New Christians need to be in a church. The wolves can circle them....They can be told not to be concerned about morality that as long as they believe in Christ they can go on being homosexuals and child molesters and be rewarded Heaven....

The point I want to make is; the only person that can teach you is; the Holy Spirit. Scripture bears that out!

The Bible is there to teach us the way. That is what the scriptures bear out. How does a person discern between the Holy Spirit and a demon without a biblical background.
