There have been a few wonderful ministries over the past decades. And some of these are still being broadcast over radio.
.
The problem is that these past ministries were quite often designed for Christians living in spiritual Babylon, which this fallen world is.
.
And so, much of the advice on these broadcasts was mingled with some really worldly advice.
.
And most of these ministries had some glaring errors in the doctrines presented.
.
It doesn’t mean that these Bible teachers were all necessarily apostate, (though many of them were apostate).
.
But God is testing us, to see if we love these fallible men more than we love Him and His Word!
.
And so, God allowed erroneous teachings to be mingled into the otherwise good and biblical teachings.

LIVING IN DEFEAT
.
And one of the erroneous doctrines which has been taught over the past decades is, that we Christians must remain in a semi-diseased spiritual condition.
.
Yes, the great masses within the Church have been misled by our leaders to believe that we cannot overcome the flesh.
.
Now this is not to say that we will be able to be totally sinless, at this present hour!
.
But it does not mean that we must be slaves to our lusts: lusts of the flesh, lusts of the eyes, and the pride of life!
.
We won’t always be sliding back into such things as gluttony, anger, coffee-addiction, and other such-like sins.

OLD MAN ALIVE AFTER BAPTISM
.
Listen again to Paul…
…”Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him,
that the body of sin might be destroyed,
that henceforth we should not serve sin.”
Romans 6:6
.
Now, our modern-day teachers often tell us that this happens at the time of our baptism.
.
And yes, when we become baptized into the Spirit of God, we become reckoned as “crucified with Christ”. (Galatians 2:20)
.
But anyone who is half-way honest must confess that just because we get baptized in water, by no means did that ceremony crucify our “Old Man”!
.
But to the contrary, our Old Man will soon rise up and begin a war for total control over our desires!
.
So there has to be more to all this!
.
But what does it mean to crucify that Old Man?

HOW IS THE OLD MAN CRUCIFIED?
.
So there has to be more to all this!
.
And so, just what does it mean to crucify that Old Man?
.
Perhaps this next verse will shed some light upon this common dilemma, which plagues every person who calls his or her self a Christian…
.
Listen…. “Thy Word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against Thee” Psalm 119:11
.
And again…“But his delight is in the Law of the Lord, and in His Word doth he meditate…day and night!”
.
So, here is where our victory is to be fought and won…by prayerfully hiding God’s Word in our hearts.

“GOOD NEWS FROM A FAR COUNTRY”
Proverbs 25:25
.
And so, the very GOOD NEWS is that God promises to give us victory, if we don’t give up…
…”He who hath begun a good work in you,
will perform it unto the Day of Jesus Christ!
Philippians 1:6
.
And so, with such promises as this how can we fail?!

FLEEING WOMAN OF REVELATION 12…
.
“And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.” Revelation 12:14, 15. So this Revelation 12 Woman Constellation gives a heavenly portrait of a woman fleeing from the Dragon, who is spewing water in her pathway.
.
The sketch to the right is “Valley of Decision” Constellation, the Woman of Revelation 12 Constellation, and the Dragon Constellation. This is a concept sketch. These three constellations are not in this position in the night sky. So please don’t try to find them together like this. All of the other sketches have the constellation in the correct position, unless otherwise noted. For locations of each of these Constellations, please go to the article for that particular constellation.
