7Greetings. Ezekiel 38:11And thou shall say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely all them dwelling without walls and having neither bars nor gates. Millions have believed the above verse deals with one physical nation attacking another physical nation: it does not! This verse has nothing to do with any physical warfare, but it deals with our thinking. Matthew 6:12 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. When reading Bible I behold all those beautiful 66 books: I’m tempted or led to believe I can spiritually understand them with my own evil thoughts.  James 1:14But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. There’s nothing physically stopping me from having my evil ways of judging the verses. I can add my thoughts or opinions on any verse I please and if I have a formal Bible education: it’s my evil highly educated ways for the taking. I’m enticed by treating God word like I am reading the thoughts of a man and who enticed me? James 1:14  But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. When we will take by force the scriptures and made them our thoughts we have become a transgressors. James 2:9But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. I have respected my thoughts above the thoughts of God and must now be convinced by God that my thoughts are evil. Isaiah 55:8For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. While I do not realize this at first and I have forgotten what matter of man I am: a sinner. I see my own face or evil reflection when I read the Bible and thinks it’s good. Proverbs 27:19As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man. As an evil man who has come upon God’s word to take a spoil that he might be made rich, unaware he has become God’s enemy. Exodus 15:9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them. Now we don’t need a physical sword or a cutting instrument to corrupt God’s word, our deceitful tongue will do just find. Psalm 52:2Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. Millions have believed the Bible speaks of the physical nation of Russia attacking the nation of Israel because some carnally minded man found a verse in the Bible and devoured it. Ezekiel 38:11And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates. The physical nation of Israel has no physical wall and the thou in the above verse deals with anybody who spiritually thinks they can [God’s word] take spoil and become spiritually rich.  Matthew 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. I must allow Jesus to recover what I have lost, his words, which are his sheep. We have all scattered his words and took them for a spoil and there is no physical holy land only God’s word. His words should have spiritually clothed me, but I have been clothed in my own righteousness: I’m spiritually naked, having no knowledge of God. Isaiah 47:3Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea thy Shane shall be seen, and I will not meet thee as a man. We all see God’s words only as a man’s thoughts at first and later if we get blessed, we’ll began to see some of the thoughts of the author. Matthew 13:16But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. Spiritually my nation or thinking attacks God word to take a spoil; because we want to hang on to our wisdom or possessions. It would be a blessing if I allow God to spoil my goods or thinking: those wicked counselors of my mind. Job 12:17He leadeth counsellors away spoiled, and maketh the judges fools. What was one of the first thing John the Baptist proclaimed when he saw Jesus? John 1:20And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. We do exact opposite, and in our thinking make ourselves the Christ. Matthew 16:16And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. Man, by our earthly wisdom anoints himself or teaches himself and if the physical water in the pool is the right temperature saves himself also. Luke 2:11For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. When we are in the day or in his light, he can save us and we can stop making ourselves saviors. Most people will not admit it but wouldn't it be great to be a God? One of my first acts of my God-hood would be to get rid of those children of a lesser God than me. What good would it be being a God if I could not rule over a people or things. Men and women physically look around for something they can rule over. Our tools of authority to rule over others could be weapons both physical and mental. So it's only natural for us to want to rule over God’s word and after all, what’s stopping us? Isaiah 42:22But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. The above verse speaks of God’s word and not a physical people: we have all robbed and spoiled God’s word and made it into man’s wisdom. Most bosses wouldn't admit it but isn't it a great feeling to terminate or fire somebody from a job. I once witness a so-called Christian rehire an individual just so they can fire them again: they must have felt like a God. God word in the Bible is something referred to as the promise land and there has been one evil boss in that land doing the judging. But to get to the good land we must go through a wilderness: our evil thinking. Exodus 17:1I And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin. A whole congregation of evil carnal minded thoughts that don’t want to suffer to obtain the promises of God: his hidden word. We don’t believe there’s more to God’s word than what the natural man can Spiritually see. Thus, we have no hope in God and can’t be saved. Romans 8:24For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? Our hope has been only in the natural things we can see when reading the Bible; it a miserable state to be in.
