BUBBLE BABIES

So you have to have an environment for victory where everybody around you is cooperating with your recovery

And a safe space for nobody can say a discouraging word oh home on the rain

But even then you tell General no no no no I can't go to battle today I haven't had enough rest and I haven't had the right food and I haven't had enough sleep I haven't had enough time to speak positively to myself and nurture myself

And then finally when all of that is done you've made it

All the way to sick bag

Way to build conquerors pal

The fact is you're gonna let them do more for 2 to 5 years you talk about the armor well you don't have a blessed breast plate of righteousness

Because that's not just positional pulse says to put it on

Putting on the helmet salvation yeah that's positional

But the wages of death James says if you give that if you seen you're a slave send there's no way that's a rest plate of righteousness you're not on the battlefield you're hopping around the barracks with 1 foot on wood foot trying to get your pants on

Getting ready to go fight the battle God told you not to fight

The truth is temptation is not a battle you should fight but there are other ones like praying for souls Sharing the gospel that's the fight God does tell you to fight

But you're AWOL

Nobody got a metal in the battle to put your uniform on

Just because it's spiritual warfare doesn't mean this is a battle that you're supposed to fight

I'm in salvation there's a spiritual battle the devil tricked man falling into sin now all he has to do even though there's a resurrection is to talk man and not taking him up on that

But just because our salvation is a spiritual battle doesn't mean we're the ones who achieve it by self effort

So we're fighting the battle God told us not to fight we're not fighting the battle God told us to fight

Just like the devil convince the sinners not to take Jesus up on his offer for salvation now he's tricking Christians he did not taking up God's offer for an environment of victory and an escape

You fool escalation having begun in the spirit or you perfected by self effort

It is long established orthodox that Grace is not just for forgiveness for Sean 19 but to enable us to walk Close to Jesus and not send

First 119 is not your victory it's cleaning up after your deceit putting it on the other test thing

I heard a preacher say when a man Sins and I rebuke him for changing the word of God he actually said God could have better worded it

What this does is it highlights the fact where I write these things that you said not

That's the difference with temptation or sin no man can run from every no man can win every battle but every man can run from every battle he means it I write these things so that you do not send

Temptation or is the only one we leave from and escape and are capable of not doing it every time he limit it within our ability and he provides an escape what could be easier

That's how it is that we can have sand that is the signature we have send and thus we need salvation

John's goal is that we do not send because of the way of escape

That is defeat but God will clean us up afterwards

But in many things we offend all we're constantly having to put the old man to death Live in the new man and become more Christ like in until Christ is formed in us this is maturity going from the milk of the word me of the word

Which Carl Thomas says we don't even need
