WELCOME TO THE INWARD JEW NATION OF GOD MINISTRIES COMMUNIQUÉ!

January 19, 2018

WE, AS A HOLY NATION, YET IMPERFECT, ARE STRICTLY MONOTHEISTIC!  WE TEACH THE BELIEF IN ONE GOD, YAHWEH OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, WHO IS OUR SINGLE OBJECT OF WORSHIP THROUGH CHRIST JESUS HIS SON! [Deut. 6:4-9; 1Cor. 8:4-5, 1Pet. 2:9-10]  As a church we are Non-denominational, Indigenous, Autonomous, and Self-propagating. And we are linked up with the Saints of the First Century Church through the teachings of the Infallible Word of God, “which are most surely believed among us: even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the Word.” ____________________________________________________________________

Welcome to our 3rd, ‘Inward Jew Nation of God Coffee/Juice Break Chat!’ Our previous Chat was on the topic: Gospel Advance 2018: Abuses in “Wisdom descended not from above” according to the scriptures: Freedom from Darkness due to Defiance of the Infallible Word, and from the belief as Aristotle that “… no divine sanction in necessary” in the pursuit for seeking happiness….!!!

Today’s Topic: Gospel Advance 2018: What is the relation between the Earthly and the Spiritual Man — what is the relation between man and the gods? And reasons why it is so.  Guy #4: 01:19   —by Pastor: Elder Wilfred A. Wilson

Overview:

By reading and studying this post to the end you will:

  • Know and understand more clearly in a practical way the difference between the “wisdom that is from above, which is first pure, then peaceable, gentle and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and of good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy,”: and the “wisdom that descended not from above,” in the given example, the central thought of the Sophists, the Protagoras’ Dictum, and the sayings of Thrasymachus another Sophist that have been influencing the secular world to this date.
  • Know the truth about the relations between man and the gods; and the importance of receiving “wisdom that is from above” to liberate yourself; and help others, who are idol conscious because their mindset have been made to believe that those dumb, deaf and dead man-made gods they serve are alive.
  • Through the spirit of “wisdom that is from above,” discern the influence of the spirit of the world, for example, the Greek spirit upon the lives of our modern day political and spiritual leaders: and know what is in their minds, by their spirit that reveals their thoughts, even as they speak.
  • Think outside the box and do an assignment on the latest saying that gained world wide attention.

Our Inward Jew Nation of God, Stance:

There is none other God but one. For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)

But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by Him. [1 Corinthians 8:4-5]

“For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? Even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.” (1 Corinthians 2:11-12)

The Biblical description of God, the Father: “God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.”[1 John 1:5]

 Definition: The Sophists (Ancient Greek)

The Sophists were itinerant professional teachers and intellectuals who frequented Athens and other Greek cities in the second half of the fifth century B.C.E. In return for a fee, the sophists offered young wealthy Greek men an education in aretē (virtue or excellence), thereby attaining wealth and fame while also arousing significant antipathy. Prior to the fifth century B.C.E., aretē was predominately associated with aristocratic warrior virtues such as courage and physical strength. In democratic Athens of the latter fifth century B.C.E., however, aretē was increasingly understood in terms of the ability to influence one’s fellow citizens in political gatherings through rhetorical persuasion; the sophistic education both grew out of and exploited this shift. The most famous representatives of the sophistic movement are Protagoras, Gorgias, Antiphon, Hippias, Prodicus and Thrasymachus. [http://www.iep.utm.edu/sophists/]

The Inward Jew Nation of God Message:

Breaking the influence of the Sophists’ pronouncement

Today, I by faith in YESHUA’s/ JESUS’ name, and by the power of God’s anointing, officially break the influence of the Sophists’ pronouncement on the minds of multitudes who were made to think that, “The relation between the Earthly man and the Spiritual man— and the relation between man and the gods is unanswerable.

The answer to the Greeks’ big question

And, we, the Inward Jew Nation of God, with deep roots in Guyana, South America, say according to the infallible Word that it is answerable. Further, through the “wisdom that is from above,” our answer to great question, “What is the relation between man and the Gods?”

Answer: There is no real relation between man and the gods.

However, some were made to think that their man-made gods were alive, but the truth is that their gods are deaf, dumb and dead. It is really the gullible mindset of some that makes them believe and practice what they believe. As a result, they invite and entertain false spirits, and they end up worshiping both the object or idol/s and the ungodly spirits that guides them in such practices.

Beloved, through “wisdom that is from above,

We know that “an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one. For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)

But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by Him. [1 Corinthians 8:4-5]

“What is the relation between the Earthly man and the Spiritual man?

The relation between the “Earthly man and the Spiritual man” is one of conflict.

Why?

 For example, the Earthly wars against the Spiritual man and vice versa, and according to the Word. As a result, all Believers are instructed to walk in the Spirit, so as to avoid fulfilling the wrong desires of the Earthly man, that is, the lust of the flesh. As it is written,

Solution to problem

“Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other so that you cannot do the things that you would.” [Galatians 5:16-17]

Protagarus’ Dictum, a manifestation of work of the flesh

Beloved, a manifestation of work of the flesh is stated in Protagarus’ Dictum by one of the earliest Sophists, and it says:

“Man is the measure of all things, of things that are, that they are; of things that are not, that they are not.”

Beloved, the above mentioned Protagarus’ Pronouncement was one with neither love, light nor life in it, and here was where they sinned, that is, simply erred, or missed the mark from the divine measurement (Salvation) for the common good of all. And by that central thought of the Sophists, which represented the “wisdom descended not from above” [James 3:15] it was “assumed that the basis of all things were material.”

Thus, the Sophists having criticized their traditional beliefs, came up with their new central thought,

“Man is the measure of all things, of things that are, that they are; of things that are not, that they are not.” As a result, for the Greeks everything thereafter must be looked at “from the point of view of man.”

“The gods may exist but they do not reveal themselves to us; therefore they may be disregarded. Laws were made by men and for men; the gods do not sanction laws, and do not punish those who offend against them. The individual is more important than the community, he has only one life, let him make the most of it and not lose it stupidly.” There is no real difference between a slave and the free, it is just an unfortunate but temporary condition due to historical circumstances.”

Interestingly, “Plato himself, in the Laws, has an Athenian stranger remark that the troubles of Athens all stem from their acquired belief that man, not God, is the measure of all things.”

The absurdity of the Athenians

And, of course, it was absurd of the Athenians to think that man is the measure of all things, and I say so because man is imperfect due to his fallen nature. And, yet, by the ambitious Athenian’s walk by sight “led to modern science and a transformed material world,” but not without Yahweh’s permissive will.

But, by rejecting the Supreme Being, who created all mankind, and by leaning on their own understanding, their deeds were indeed disrespectful, devilishness, disdainful and destructive in Yahweh’s sight; and, therefore they were cruel to themselves and to their fellowmen: that being so, was it not because “that the wisdom of the Athenians descended not from above?”

Moreover, to learn that during the days of the Athenian Empire and the Peloponnesian War, the sayings of Thrasymachus one of the Sophists that, “justice is the interest of the stronger,” or that might makes right” became the order of the day, is somewhat disturbing. And, even, much more disturbing, that the sayings of the said Sophist is still believed and demonstrated by some in our global societies today, both in the most subtle and in blatant ways too; and our local and international news points out some of these injustices.

God our heavenly Father, and Christ His Son are the measure of all things

Finally, my beloved, we know the truth according to “the wisdom that is from above” that God the heavenly Father, by Christ His Son, is the measure of all things.

And, we know also that Christ, is the image of the invisible God, the first born of every creature: for by Him were all things created (the use of divine measurement is implied here,) that are in the heaven and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him and for Him: and He is before all things, and by him all things consist….” [Colossians 1:15-17]

Let us give Yahweh our heavenly Father, thanks and praise in Jesus’ name.  Hallelujaaaaaah!!! Let us keep the faith.

My Prayer

Yahweh, our heavenly Father by faith I call into being thinkers filled with the Holy Spirit and with general wisdom from above, and knowledgeable in the infallible Word, to teach men your ways and to provide positive answers to many unanswered questions pertaining to the truth and nothing but the truth, that the minds of multitudes, who believe would be liberated and lives turned around through an inward transformation in order to benefit from the common good you have in store for all, according to your will and purpose, in Jesus’ name.

May Yahweh richly bless you. Shalom.
