You remember the scripture; everything a lives according to its own kind. The translation of that is; it is all in the seed. And will produce after its own kind.



The sooner a believer discover's in the scripture that God has determined everything to live by its nature. We call it Human Nature, animal nature or instinct, even plant material lives by the seed that is planted. The seed is where you get the nature. It always comes through the seed.



You should be able to read between the lines on that because it was determined that Humanity would live the same way. Now granted there is no such thing as human nature, not in the scriptures. But what is written is human beings have a nature they live by. Or human beings have a nature, and you can see that they live by that nature. By the seed planted, be it Adam and Eve in the garden at the fall receiving spirit, life, death nature, all being synonymous.



Or now in the human being that believes on the finished work of the cross and the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal savior receive a new nature. That synonymous nature. No longer the nature that they were born with but God provided himself a sacrificial lamb, before the foundations of the world, that would take away the sin of the world. What sin? The sin that entered in through one man according to Romans 5. The sin, or the nature that Adam received in the garden. Adam was created a living soul, nowhere you can find Adam was created a living soul, spirit, life, nature. You can't find where sin entered in through him. What happened to Adam when he failed was; he received a nature, as well as Eve, but the point being they received a nature. Be it sin nature, Satan nature, a nature was by received by Adam at the fall, they received a nature and it was a sinning nature. So important to see that. That is how send got in the world. That's in that Jesus took away; John the Baptist said 'Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world.'



Scripture reads; Adam was created in the image and likeness of God, a living soul. We understand what is written because it says man is body, soul, and spirit. Triune now but; in the beginning when God created Adam he did not have a nature, he was created a living soul, and he was not Triune. Very important for you to understand that. It's not widely talked about, very few people speak on it, and it is something you will discover on your own if you study what is written in the scriptures. It is not a new understanding, a multitude of believers understand it. It is a worldwide knowledge but until each individual believer sees it and comes to understand it, they do not know that fact.



Living by a nature may be one of the greatest understandings in all of scripture because the Believer cannot go on in God until they can properly divide the first Adam and the last Adam. The first Adam has a nature, as well as the second Adam he has a nature (Christ in you). All in the first Adam still have Adams nature. All in the second Adam have a new nature, the old nature was put to death in Christ - you have to be in Christ to have his nature. Can you see the importance of that fact. You cannot grow in Grace until you know it. The believer will not move without that knowledge shed abroad by the Holy Spirit.



Therein is; the wisdom of God. The wisdom of God is like everything else that is in God such as; the Fruit of the Spirit love joy peace happiness contentment self-control. It all comes from, for example; he does not give you Joy he is joy. He does not give you peace he is peace. He does not give you self control he is self control. Can you get a feel for that? He does not give you anything, he is all those things in you, to you, as you. However you want to say it it is him. You were with him on thst wicked tree - the cross - according to the scriptures. Stop living Adam. Believers have to quit dragging around this bag of Dead Man Bones according to scripture. The scripture calls it the body of death Romans 7.



Rejoice Saints because Paul said; who shall deliver me from this body of death, Romans 7. And he goes on to say; I thank God through Jesus! Hallelujah the deliverer has come, and is in you as your only life, nature, spirit, as we speak.

Scripture: he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. Praise God! Rejoice forever more.

Hello @soul man,

I remember hearing of a form of punishment for murder in which the dead body of the victim was tied to the back of the murderer, and he was made to live with that rotting corpse upon his back. This is a horrible thing: but it graphically illustrated for me what we do when we do not 'put off' the old man and 'put on' the new man by the reckoning of faith, to walk in newness of life before the Father in Christ Jesus. (Rom 6:9-14)

'Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more;
.. death hath no more dominion over him.
.... For in that He died, He died unto sin once:
...... but in that He liveth, He liveth unto God.
........ Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin,
.......... but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body,
.. that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
.... Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin:
...... but yield yourselves unto God,
........ as those that are alive from the dead,
.......... and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
For sin shall not have dominion over you:
for ye are not under the law, but under grace.'


Thank you
In Christ Jesus
Chris
