BREAKING 🚨 Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem just EXPOSED Judge Boasberg’s huge loss “Today is a bad day to be a Terr*rist in America” MASS DEPORT THEM ALL TO EL SALVADOR 🔥 https://t.co/5tEMjkZsE3

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court overruled Judge Boasberg's block on President Trump using the Alien Enemies Act to deport criminal aliens. The decision was a 5-4 win for Trump. Amy Cony Barrett once again sided with the three liberals. https://t.co/y9exsTfEnn

Major win for President Trump, the presidency, and our country. Judge Boasberg unlawfully and dangerously took the federal judiciary to the brink. Five justices stopped him. Professor Amy Coney Barrett joined the 3 liberals. What a disaster. Total lack of sound judgment.

Walking in His Spiritual Enlightenment 2 Corinthians 12:9 But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness." Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses so that the power of Christ may rest on me. Weakness makes us imperfect. Weakness is the flaw in perfection. With it, we are deemed as sheep to be slaughtered because weakness will lead us into temptation. Once tempted, many of us are like Eve, clueless about what to do next except to fall into it. Temptation is nothing to be desired as it is nothing but evil. Hence, Jesus taught us to pray that our Father will not lead us into Temptation but will deliver us from the evil one. Jesus further warned us to: "Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak." That is, our bodies are weak, and whatever we hope to achieve is different from what we can achieve. We can have the best intentions, but they are hard to fulfil because of our inherent flaws: weakness. It is like having an underpowered car that does not allow us to go the extra mile. Having an underpowered car is not a big issue as long as it gets us somewhere. However, having weakness means we have a low resistance to temptation. If ever we fall in, we fall into the pit of no return. Then, it can be a treacherous issue. Eve was one of many being clueless when tempted. Even great men like David and wise men like Solomon were clueless, too. If not, they would not have fallen into sin. We must understand that only if there is a need, then there is a desire. It is similar to the phenomenon of hunger. If a man is hungry, he will naturally desire to eat. If not, he might not be tempted to eat. Likewise, a weakness is like a hunger that opens our appetite to temptation. Paul understood the struggle when he said, "For I do not do the good I want to do. Instead, I keep on doing the evil I do not want to do." Nevertheless, it is absurd to hear from Paul, a ruthless man of command and control who has little control over his weakness. That is, weakness is not limited to the non-achievers or losers, who are undetermined or foolish, but it transcends to the superb, mighty, wise, or ruthless. Therefore, no matter who we are or where we are in life, we are plagued with weaknesses at our level of competency, so we do not do the good we want but the evil we do not wish to do. At this instance in the epistle of Romans, Paul was quick to dismiss his responsibility for his weakness by saying, "And if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but sin living in me that does it." Paul disassociated his sinful behaviour as if it had nothing to do with him but the sin living in him. We can link his behaviour to that of Adam, who told GOD, "The woman whom You gave me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it." Indirectly, Adam was blaming GOD for the woman He gave him for inducing him to eat from the forbidden tree of the knowledge of good and evil and causing him to disobey Him. He was an innocent party, and whatever happened had nothing to do with him as he was caught in the web of decision-making, of which none was his. From Adam, we can see the birth of man's weakness, and after Jesus was crucified, died and risen, Apostle Paul still held on to the Adamic weakness of the attitude that it has nothing to do with me. Paul was as clueless as Adam. Indeed, Adam did not make any decisions on his own except to give all the animals and his women their names. He had all the decisions made for him. GOD chose the woman for him as his companion, and the woman chose the fruit that he should eat. Even though GOD had warned him against eating the forbidden fruit, Adam made no reservations about eating it as his woman gave it to him. He had no reason to doubt the woman that GOD gave him would do him harm. Even if he did not trust GOD, he would not doubt her, who is the DNA of his bone and flesh. Adam trusted Eve and listened to all the decisions she made. He did not utter a word during the conversation between the Serpent and his woman as he watched passively beside her. He did not clarify the misconception when the Serpent distorted the truth. He left her to assume wrongly as the Serpent misled her. When Eve gave him the forbidden fruit, Adam could have rejected it, but he did not because he, like many, could not say no to their flesh. In other words, Adam was the sheep, and his woman was his shepherd. Is there anything wrong with that? Yes, when we listen to the wrong voice and do not do what is right, our whole life will be a mistake. GOD told Cain, "If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you refuse to do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it." The moral is that we must do right if we want to straighten our lives, and it is more than not doing wrong. Adam did not do anything wrong. He did not take the forbidden fruit, but it was given to him as one of the fruits of the garden. Therefore, he was clueless about what went wrong when GOD questioned him when he went into hiding. Only Eve had the answer, and that is, the Serpent deceived her. Therefore, contrary to the belief of many, Adam was punished because he ate the forbidden fruit, but that is only the secondary reason. The main reason GOD said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat." The issue is not about eating but listening, which causes the outcome, which is man's downfall. The voice he obeyed determined his action, resulting in his fate. Listening to the wrong voice was the first step of a thousand miles in the wrong direction. The difference can be between life and death. Despite being warned, why did Adam do it? Adam was stuck in a tug-of-war between GOD's restriction and his woman's inducement. Between the two of them, he had to choose one, and he chose his woman. There was little of a choice. It was either he betrayed GOD, his creator and provider, or himself, as the woman was his bone and flesh. From then till now, little has changed. Many men will still choose themselves over GOD, succumbing to their flesh within or without, causing themselves much grief. David and Solomon were among one of them. Despite their greatness, they could not control their flesh. Therefore, it is not without reason when Jesus said, "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be My disciple." Therefore, without the element of hate for anyone, including ourselves, who will turn our ears away from GOD's instruction, we cannot be Jesus's disciples. Adam could not do it for GOD, but approximately 2000 years and 21 generations later, a man did it for GOD. He was Abraham, and he listened to GOD faithfully to the extent of even sacrificing his only flesh and blood, his son. For him, GOD was also willing to sacrifice His Son, so through Abraham's lineage came Jesus. Therefore, because of Abraham through Jesus, we become a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's possession, to proclaim the virtues of Him who called us out of darkness into His marvellous light. Hence, anyone who wants to have life must eat his flesh and drink his blood. The implication is that Christ's DNA is in His flesh and blood, and to eat his flesh and drink his blood is to take on His DNA of obedience and listen to GOD. Therefore, the blood of Christ proves its effectiveness once we are willing to listen. After the fall of man, there is a change in plan. The woman took on a new role and became a separate entity from Adam. She was given a name, Eve, to signify the change. Before that, all the animals were given names except Eve because she existed as an integral part of Adam as she came from his rib. She was his extension of him and, figuratively speaking, like his tail, following wherever he went. She did not exist as an individual. After the fall, GOD switched Eve's role from one dictating Adam to one submitting to him. For that reason, GOD said to Eve, "Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you." If Eve had been submitting to Adam and not ruling over him, that statement would be redundant. It is like asking a child to clean his room when the room has been cleaned. Eve was no longer the voice that Adam listened to. In the new spiritual structure, Eve's voice has been replaced because GOD ordained Adam to rule over Eve, and Eve has to listen to Adam. The new voice will be of Adam's new flesh, not Eve, but his fallen nature. And this voice is passed on to us like an inheritance. We know of it from the next scene of Cain and Abel's offerings. GOD mentioned that sin is crouching at Cain's door, desiring him. What does sin desire Cain to do? It desires Cain to steal, kill and destroy, which is the modus operandi of Satan. The next thing we know, Cain killed Abel. From this, we know sin as his inner voice manages to convince Cain to kill. Cain did not manage to master the compulsion of his sinful nature, which led him to be punished. GOD has a reason to use the Serpent as the personification of Satan and Eve, the flesh, to show how the spiritual world connects to a man in the relationship between Satan, the flesh, and man. As depicted in the book of Genesis, the Serpent never once spoke to Adam directly, only to his woman. Many might take this for granted, as that is how things happen. Do not take any details for granted, as secrets of enlightenment might be hidden behind them. The puzzling thing is that when God asked Adam about what had happened, Adam was clueless even when he was with Eve during the whole conversation with the Serpent, as if the conversation between them was viewed from him. Only Eve had the answer. What can we infer from them? Could it be possible there is a gatekeeper between God and man or Satan and man? The gatekeeper of the physical man is his spiritual man, who decodes, translates, and understands all spiritual matters. Though the physical man might be clueless about the spiritual happenings, the spiritual man understands because spiritual issues must be spiritually discerned. As Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians, "The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them because they are spiritually discerned." Therefore, it is possible that Eve, before the fall, was the personification of 'Adam's spiritual man' as the Serpent, Satan. Thus, whatever happened, Eve seemed to know better than Adam. Furthermore, in the Epistle of Romans, Paul wrote, "The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children." Apostle Paul did not write: the Spirit Himself testifies with us that we are GOD's children. He understood the sequence, and when GOD speaks, it is from His Spirit to our spirit. The physical aspect of the man might not be aware of the happening. It is like what happened to Peter when Jesus asked his disciples, "Who do you say I am?" Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah! For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood but by My Father in heaven." Apostle Peter must have been clueless about what he said on the spur of the moment until Jesus enlightened him. GOD talks to us and guides us literally in ways we do not know. Therefore, Jesus said, "When you are brought before synagogues, rulers, and authorities, do not worry about how to defend yourselves or what to say. For at that time, the Holy Spirit will teach you what you should say." GOD's voice is the power within us, giving us the knowledge to defeat our enemies by not falling into temptation so we do not do what we do not want to. Therefore, Paul delights in weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and difficulties because one word from GOD will change his situation and even his life. For when I am weak, then I am strong. Prayer: Father, thank you for giving us the Holy Spirit to dwell in me, so I am no longer a spiritual orphan. I will be able to discern spiritually the things of God and walk according to God's power and strength. Whether I turn to the right or the left, my ears will hear Your command within me: "This is the way. Walk in it." My ways will be pleasing to you, and I will never be clueless in the face of temptation. Amen.

🔥 THE FALL OF ROME 🔥 Armapegdon continues. In the biggest PsyOp in PulseChain's history, the repeated attacks against pDAI is a spectacle that takes everyone's breath away. The community is divided and united at the same time. PvP as it has never been experienced before. War on all fronts. War between the believers and those who either can't or don't want to understand why pDAI's narrative is so strong and important. Because it is. Strong and important. Never before in the history of crypto has there been a coin whose history, indeed whose very narrative, has been as big, as strong, as controversial as that of pDAI. And it is all the more astonishing how brilliantly the marketing comes into play here. Because after everything that has happened, this is nothing other than a highly spectacular marketing campaign. A campaign that could, that should reach the wider masses outside of PulseChain. This is just the groundwork. PDAI - the controversy of this decade. What Richard has set in motion can be described as sensational without denial. The news has spread like wildfire. EVERYONE within PulseChain knows about it. And not just knows. Everyone has deliberately TAKEN A SIDE. Has this EVER happened before in PulseChain? In Crypto? When have people verbally expressed their DIRECT opinion, their DIRECT strong emotion for a coin like this? It's not just a standpoint. It is a belief. pDAI the PEG OR the infinite exploit scam. Death of pDAI OR Death of PulseChain. But what if I told you that there's more than meets the eye? It's not the death of pDAI or Death of PulseChain. The Death of PulseChain because of pDAI is TRUE. But only if pDAI itself gets killed off. Thus, pDAI MUST be saved and brought to a a peg. Because that is what it will ultimately come down to. A PEG, no matter how hateful the idea may be to non-investors, is the best, most logical and important event that must happen to catapult PulseChain to the gates of Valhalla. A peg would do what this chain has been missing for years. The native stablecoin that is fully needed for a decentralized and self-sustaining ecosystem, which, effectively Richard has always envisioned. So yes, pDAI in its current form IS a danger to PulseChain. This is why it must be taken over and pegged to avoid the "dangers" that people fear. Not by killing it. If you kill pDAI, you ultimately kill PulseChain too. And this is what most FAIL to understand. If you kill pDAI, you do not simply kill, what looks to the uninformed like a bloodsucking infinite minting token. You kill the Atropa ecosystem. Which is the biggest meme coin ecosystem on PulseChain, and so many things are bonded to it. You will kill BEAR - which is the BIGGEST meme coin on PulseChain. You will kill the entire spectrum of the PRC-20's, which ultimately also kills the purpose of PulseChain and the blockchain in its whole. You will kill the Free Airdrop narrative. You will kill peoples trust inside AND outside PulseChain. And eventually this leads to killing Richard's promises, aspirations, legacy and lifework. And this is why Haters do not grasp how their vocal opinions towards this very specific token is consumed by self-harming emotions. They fail to grasp where that leads to. "But Richard called the minting out!" Richard is clever. He never called it out directly. He used words like "rumored", "perhaps" and asking ambitigous questions that imply to those who can obviously read between the lines that this "public problem" should be fixed and taken care of. And this is where the code comes into play. So, when PulseChain launched, pDAI was right away dumped to a bottom that leads straight 555,555x to 1$. pDAI was the first logo change on PulseX. Richard then proceeded to show-off the chart of pDAI, hinted at the coin for over 6 times, only to do what, let people pump it for 2 years and then "rug" them with a spicy tweet? You must be an absolute sheep to think this way. Everything in crypto happens for a reason. Even if Richard posts about it. ESPECIALLY IF Richard posts about it. Let's play a scenario. Ready? Okay, go. Let's assume, you're an outsider, okay? You have never heard of pDAI or its stories. You know PulseChain has existed for almost 2 years. A blockchain that was forked and was praised as the best, fastest and most secure chain in the world. It was promoted with the BIGGEST Airdrop in history. Richard constantly boasts about winning, how he knows everything, how his own blockchain is the greatest thing in the world and so on. And then, all of a sudden, wait a second, he posts about pDAI, a forked DAI, and calls it out on an infinite exploit bug? After 2 years? After 2 years of HIM shilling it and telling everyone to come to his chain, because it's so great, so awesome, so secure and there's so much free money and so much more money to be made? And now he "allegedly" calls out the BIGGEST token on his own chain, with the BIGGEST fanbase, the BEST gains of ALL tokens, with a chart that has visibly OUTPERFORMED all his cores for 2 years straight. He calls out such a token, a token which he holds the biggest bag of himself, a token which HE himself FORKED and shilled and praised everything to be secure and working flawlessly? What would you think? Like, wait a second. Is this guy for real? He never knew about it in all those 2 years? Despite forking the coins, having the best devs and shilling the chart of the very token and a "mint" that has been known for ages and that NEVER affected the price? Despite that "mint" the token made it to almost 4 cent, outperforming EVERYTHING. And now, just a few days ago, there is a great FUD campaign going on, bringing on EVERY person on the chain to speak out negatively on it. What would you think as an outsider? I, personally, would think, this man is a conman. I would think this guy has scammed his entire community by letting an "alleged" scam run free for 2 years, trap investors and then HE, himself, destroys the chart by fueling fire of the ongoing FUD. This would make me stay THE FUCK AWAY from this blockchain. Seeing how the MAJORITY of his coins have crashed to absolute bottom. Seeing how NO TOKEN on it can thrive. Seeing how not even the creator is to be trusted. AND seeing how all cores are SO MUCH DOWN, so much underwater, so brutally low, that I would come to the ultimate conclusion that this chain is DEAD and that the rumors about this man are true, that he is a scamming piece of shit. Do you get it yet? This is what the outside world sees. And you absolute dumbass want to tell me that a) it's a good thing to kill off pdai (which also kills 99% of all coins on PulseChain) and b) you even laugh about it, thinking that HEX can thrive afterwards? If so, you're nothing but a piece of shit, a dimwit who cannot even look 3 steps ahead. And the best part of all of this is this: The narrative of pDAI is this strong, it survived EVERY FUD attack from the past days. The community's minting fud. The Maria FUD. The subtle Richard FUD. And the call-out Richard FUD. How come, each day the coin recovered BIG times, and made HUGE gains for everyone buying back? "This just means pDAI holders are stupid, they still buy despite the truth about it." You're a RETARD. This just proves HOW STRONG the narrative is. How strong the community is. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS IN ALL OF CRYPTO? I have never. FUD Campaigns like these, often even at the very first attempt, resulted in a DIRECT rug pull to 0. Yet after 4-5 times pDAI still recovers violently. How is that possible? It's possible because the community WANTS it to peg. It's possible because THERE'S MORE to the story than meets the eye. Why are whales loading up at each dump? Why is the money that is bridged out washed and bridged back? WHY IS THE OUTFLOW of the bridge SIGNIFICANTLY SMALLER than the INFLOW? Ever asked yourself this, dummy? Ever asked yourself, WHY does this happen NOW. Why mere DAYS before the auctions, before the actual process of the supposed pegging is to happen? WHY does the FUD happen right on time after the blood moon? WHY does THIS ENTIRE CHAIN experience the greatest FALL in all of history, RIGHT now. Just mere days after it being here for 666 days? WHY DID RICHARD FUD come out when the price hit 0,00333, the PLSX burn hit 6,66%, and all of this on the VERNAL EQUINOX, the earths new year? WHY does all of this happen so shortly before April, when April 1 is the actual new year, and as explained in my Scenario 2 post is supposed to kick-off the long awaited alt season? WHAT could kick-off an alt season on PulseChain? A pegging OR the death of pDAI and thus all of tokens on PulseChain? Think about it. And then think about it again. Do you think Richard Heart never knew about this alleged infinite minting, and forked it blindly? Never worked on a solution? If you were Richard, would you let the public know that the token you're either building yourself behind the scenes or know a team of experts do so, to successfully initiate the pegging that will help your entire chain, would you let the public know about it before the peg? So EVERYONE can buy in cheap and cash out millions? And then fuck off from your chain? Or would you do it silently, shake out the big narrative of fans, and then peg when the sentiment is lowest, surprise everyone, offer a great passive income incentive to hold pDAI, and have a self-sustaining ecosystem initiating the hyper loop for your blockchain? You see. PulseChain is burning to the ground like Rome. And Richard Heart is like emperor Nero. HE, HIMSELF set this fire up. He, HIMSELF is burning Rome, aka, PulseChain TO THE GROUND. He, and his inner circle, who play an act to SHAKE YOU OUT. This is also a symbolism for a renewal. To cause MAX PAIN. To push out EVERY non believer. Haven't you seen what is happening around you? Most OG Hexicans have GIVEN UP. Most OG Hexicans have SOLD. The entire community is fighting each other. The pDAI weak hands, the core fake-believers, the meme coin gamblers, everyone is rekt. A time for unity and division. Unity WITHIN division. Now is not the time to take on the torch. You must take buckets of water instead and save your city. Some may say the emperor has lost his mind. But then again, all he wanted is to get the scum out. Those who never believed in a vision for a Great Rome. If you fail to understand this. If you fail to understand any of this ... You may see it all fall to ashes soon with no one left to build anything. pDAI may be controversial, but it is necessary to make the chain work. Without pDAI, there is no ecosystem. There is no memes, no airdrop worth of anything. There is nothing but hatred and ashes. For this is the greatest psyop in the history of PulseChain, and only true believers will prevail. Only true believers.

Know Thy Enemy 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Sun Tzu, a Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher, once said, "Know thy enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles, you will never be defeated." Knowing ourselves alone is like a blind archer shooting arrows at a target, hoping one will hit the bullseye. Knowing ourselves and our enemy is like an archer with eagle-eye vision, and with every arrow he shoots, he will surely hit the bullseye. Therefore, we cannot walk naively through life, blind to our enemy, knowing nothing of him except his name. Ignorance is not bliss. In the book of Hosea, GOD said, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you as My priests. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children."  Who is our enemy? Anything or anyone that turns us away from GOD is our enemy. Therefore, as children of GOD, we cannot be as innocent as doves but also as wise as serpents to know who our enemy is. We cannot be like Eve, knowing good and not evil or knowing light and not darkness. She is not at fault because she has not taken the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil during that time to know the existence of evil. She only knew a friend but not a foe, good but not evil, that could turn her fate for the worse. Hence, she was as innocent as doves. We cannot be like that because within us is the knowledge of good and evil, so we must be more than innocent as doves but as wise as serpents to know the traps of evil. We cannot be living in a fool's paradise, thinking that GOD will save us from the hand of the devourer. He will not since He did not save Adam and Eve from the deceit of the Serpent that led them into suffering, pain and death. Why would he make an exception for us? To beware of our enemy, we should never let anyone sweet-talk us into believing anything that seems too good to be true—it probably is. GOD's actions speak louder than His Words. Unless those gifts are under goodwill, everything of GOD, protection, provision, blessings, or promises requires us to walk on the tightrope of obedience. Even though Eve is ignorant, naive, or impressionable, she could not have fallen into the Serpent's lie if she had walked tightly on the rope of obedience. God's protection and provision are only found in obedience, and anything out of obedience is out of His protection. Hence, once Adam and Eve disobeyed, they had to leave Eden away from GOD's protection and provision. GOD did not show them leniency even when they were first-time offenders deserving a second chance.  Once fallen, the second chance only came a few thousand years later in the form of Jesus Christ. Even if we are given a second chance, it does not exempt us from being disobedient to do as we wish. We still have to be obedient in the face of temptations. Even if Jesus's love covers all sins, it does not mean we can continue sinning. Anyone who continues to sin shows he is unrepentant. Forgiveness requires a repentance heart and demands us to turn over a new leaf. If there is no change and transformation, it will mean that there is no repentance. In the epistle of 1 John, John states, "No one who remains in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has seen Him or known Him." That implies that knowing GOD will teach us to stop sinning, which is where forgiveness comes in. If we keep sinning, then we need more than forgiveness; we need tolerance. But GOD is willing only to forgive sin, not tolerate sin. Coming back to what is written in the book of Hosea, we are destroyed by a lack of knowledge because we have rejected knowledge. At face value, we are blockheaded to reject knowledge, but in reality, our fallen nature refuses to accept the things of GOD. It is written in the Epistle of Galatians, 'For the flesh craves what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are opposed to each other, so you do not do what you want.' Therefore, no matter how hard we endeavour, as long as our flesh is alive, we will refuse to learn. It is not that we do not want to, but we cannot because the flesh, our gatekeeper, has a natural rejection of the law. The law of GOD goes in one ear and out the other. Metaphorically, we are like a filter that absorbs all evil influences and sieves out all good. Through the prophet Hosea, GOD reprimanded the Jews for being blockheaded, but it is not a Jewish problem but a universal one. Anyone who wants to become a child of GOD will face the issue of incompatibility of their fallen nature with GOD's. They are like oil and water, immiscible. Indirectly, GOD is saying through the prophet Hosea that whoever rejects the law is incompatible with Him and cannot be His children. Therefore, anyone holding on to his flesh becomes an enemy of GOD and cannot be his child. In today's context, many believe that once their sins are forgiven, it means that God has accepted them as who they are—fallen beings. Do not be deceived. If this is true, then many things cannot add up. If the blood of Jesus can wash away our sins and transform our fallen nature, then Jesus would not ask us to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Him. Jesus's blood can only wash away our sins but not transform our fallen nature. When Jesus said, "It is finished." And bowing His head, He yielded up His Spirit. It does not mean that, with His death, we are free from our fallen nature. Our enemy hopes we will believe that. Jesus meant He had finished his mission on earth. He conquered man's eternal death so that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life. If Jesus's death is enough to put to death our fallen nature, then it is redundant for Jesus to ask us to deny ourselves. That is to say, Jesus has done His part, figuratively, to bring us to the water. We must drink the water ourselves. If we want to belong to Christ Jesus, according to the Epistle of Galatians, we must crucify the flesh with its passions and desires. No one can do that for us except ourselves. We hold the last piece of the puzzle to salvation as we have the final say - to crucify or not to crucify our flesh. Now, standing between God and us is our common enemy, the fallen nature. With Christ's death on the cross for our sins, God no longer holds against us for the old debt, which is committed by our fallen nature. God is willing to let bygones be bygones. However, bygones will never be bygones if we keep sinning by listening to our fallen nature, keeping the beast alive. In the epistle of Romans, Paul states, 'For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.' This verse refutes the catchphrase of 'once saved, always saved.' No one is saved until they put to death the deeds of the body. That is to say, if there is no death of our fallen nature, we will not be saved. When we believe in GOD, He expects us to be transformed. A confused mind is the devil's playground. Therefore, we must be clear of the changes between the old and the new covenants. Jesus came to fulfil the old covenant by His death on the cross, bringing about the new covenant. If we are not clear about the change, then we will be like Eve, falling into our enemy's deceit. To understand this change, we must understand Paul's writing by understanding who he is. Jesus recruited Apostle Paul after He had resurrected, in a spiritual encounter, where Jesus appeared to Paul in an audible voice. Paul is unlike Jesus's twelve disciples, who among them were fishermen, tax collectors and peasants. Paul was a Pharisee, a student of Gamaliel, a man held in great esteem by all Jews. Therefore, Paul was not a nobody like the rest but someone proficient in the Law of Moses. He wrote and contributed about fourteen out of the twenty-seven epistles of the New Testament, having a dominant no lesser than Jesus's disciples. Instead of selecting one of the twelve disciples whom Jesus closely taught to champion the post-Christ movement, GOD chose Paul, who had never met Jesus and didn't claim to have met him. Paul is similar to Moses, who was taught by the best of the Egyptian court, and Paul, who was trained by Gamaliel, recognized as a Pharisee doctor of Jewish Law. Through Moses, GOD established the Old Covenant and through Paul, the New Covenant. Many of Paul's writings are challenging to comprehend and are unlike those written by Jesus's disciples, who are narrations of Jesus's ministry. Paul's writing expounds on the ministry of the Holy Spirit. When we put to death the deeds of the body, we are no longer under the law but under the Holy Spirit. Jesus's death parted a way for those who believe in Him to walk out of the bondage of sin like GOD parted the Red Sea for the Israelites to leave the bondage of Egypt. Unless we are willing to sin no more, we will not move out of the bondage of sin. The good news is the door remains open and will be opened forever to anyone who wants to leave their sin behind. The contention is not about the open door but who is exiting through the door. Many praise GOD for His goodness for the open door, but no one is leaving their Sodom and Gomorrah because they love sinning too much to leave. Therefore, no matter how good GOD is, it has nothing to do with anyone unless he wants to stop sinning. After evaluating all that Christ has done by His death on the cross, Paul still warns us that if we live according to the flesh, we will die, implying that the flesh is still alive in us, residing in the still soft voice, leading us into the way of evilness. Jesus's death or blood has no detrimental effect of it. It is still much alive, working its way to our death. It is like some cancerous cells working within us that cannot be removed by any means except by the Holy Spirit. Only those under the Holy Spirit have the power of the Holy Spirit to put to death the deeds of the body by sinning no more. Only then will they live. Many do not know that our enemy is well hidden within us, the first one to greet us in the morning and the last one to wish us goodnight, always talking to us and helping us make decisions. Those who listen to it become futile in their thinking and darkened in their foolish hearts. Paul describes them as having a depraved mind to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, and boastful. They invent new forms of evil; they disobey their parents. They are senseless, faithless, heartless, merciless. The blood of Jesus did not put a stop to the evil influences we are hearing. As long as we are willing to listen, it will speak. Once we listen, we become accomplices in crime, like Cain, who killed his brother Abel. Our enemy is much nearer to us than we think and more influential to us than we know. He is not the big bad fox lurking in the forest but the coaxing voice that, as our second nature, justifies us to sin. When we look at the broken lives, broken relationships, or broken bank accounts of many, we know many have listened to its foolishness and treated it as wisdom. We cannot outsmart our fallen nature because it has evolved through time to understand the weaknesses of men. Therefore, we need to stand firm on GOD's commandments and not depart from them. Only then can we not fall into destruction. However, despite our best intentions and determination, it will be challenging because we do not have what it takes to be better than our fallen nature. We are like David fighting Goliath, sure to be defeated. We are, as Jesus commented, 'Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.' Jesus could have given us a better answer as to how to combat the weakness, but He did not. What He said is as good as asking us to wait and see that we do not enter into temptation. It is not that He does not want, but it is not under His purview but the purview of Paul to introduce the Ministry of the Holy Spirit. Without this, the work of the Trinity would not be complete. Only then will we be like Samson in an incident where suddenly, a young lion came roaring at him, and the Spirit of the LORD came powerfully upon him, and he tore the lion apart with his bare hands as one would tear a young goat. We will be tearing apart the roaring lion, our devour. Prayer: Thank you, God, for giving me the Holy Spirit to empower me to defeat my enemy and for opening my eyes to see how easily my enemy can infiltrate my mind and heart—just as easily as the Serpent is able to access the Garden of Eden to talk to Eve. Only when I study your words carefully will I not be like Eve, deceived into believing something that is not true. Continue to teach and guide me through your Holy Spirit so that I will not fall into the devil's trap and sin against you. Amen.
