Genesis 1:1-10
1.)
In the beginning God created Heaven and the
Earth
2.)
And the earth was without form and void; and the
darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the
face of the waters.
3.)
And God said, let there be light: and there was
light.
4.)
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God
divided the light from the darkness.
5.)
And God called the light Day, and the darkness
he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.’
6.)
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the
midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7.)
And God made the firmament, and divided the
waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above
firmament: and it was so.
8.)
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the
evening and the morning were the second day.
9.)
And God said, let the waters under heaven be
gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10.) And
God called the dry land Earth: and the gathering together of the waters called
he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
To forsake it all to know you my Glorious God,
To forsake all to know you,
My Glorious God,
My Rock, and Savior

Knowledge of Good and Evil?

Genesis 2:16-17
16.) And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every
tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17.) But of three of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt
not eat of it: for in the day that thout eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
My shield is God Most High,
Who saves the upright in heart.
Psalm 7:10
Chronicles
16:10-12
10.) Glory ye in his holy name:
let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
11.) Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face
continually.
12.) Remember his marvelous works that he hath
done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
Chronicles 16
31-33
31.) Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and
let men say among the nations, the LORD reigneth.
32.) Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof: let the
fields rejoice and all that is therein.
33.) Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the
presence of the LORD, because he cometh to judge the earth.
What is Heaven?
What is the roaring of the fullness of the LORD?
Where is the presence of the LORD?
Psalm 24:4
He that hath clean
hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn
deceitfully.
How can my heart
become clean after years of cursing, sin, masturbation, thoughts of death,
violence, and hatred?
Freedom from the Law
7 Brothers and
sisters, I’m talking to you as people who know the Law. Don’t you know that the
Law has power over someone only as long as he or she lives? 2 A married woman
is united with her husband under the Law while he is alive. But if her husband
dies, she is released from the Law concerning her husband. 3 So then, if she
lives with another man while her husband is alive, she’s committing adultery.
But if her husband dies, she’s free from the Law, so she won’t be committing
adultery if she marries someone else. 4 Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you
also died with respect to the Law through the body of Christ, so that you could
be united with someone else. You are united with the one who was raised from
the dead so that we can bear fruit for God. 5 When we were self-centered, the
sinful passions aroused through the Law were at work in all the parts of our
body, so that we bore fruit for death. 6 But now we have been released from the
Law. We have died with respect to the thing that controlled us, so that we can
be slaves in the new life under the Spirit, not in the old life under the
written Law.
The function of the
Law
7 So what are we
going to say? That the Law is sin? Absolutely not! But I wouldn’t have known
sin except through the Law. I wouldn’t have known the desire for what others
have if the Law had not said, Don’t desire to take what others have.[a] 8 But
sin seized the opportunity and used this commandment to produce all kinds of
desires in me. Sin is dead without the Law. 9 I used to be alive without the
Law, but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life, 10 and I died. So the
commandment that was intended to give life brought death. 11 Sin seized the
opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and killed me. 12 So the Law
itself is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous, and good.
Living under the Law
13 So did something
good bring death to me? Absolutely not! But sin caused my death through
something good so that sin would be exposed as sin. That way sin would become
even more thoroughly sinful through the commandment. 14 We know that the Law is
spiritual, but I’m made of flesh and blood, and I’m sold as a slave to sin. 15
I don’t know what I’m doing, because I don’t do what I want to do. Instead, I
do the thing that I hate. 16 But if I’m doing the thing that I don’t want to
do, I’m agreeing that the Law is right. 17 But now I’m not the one doing it
anymore. Instead, it’s sin that lives in me. 18 I know that good doesn’t live
in me—that is, in my body. The desire to do good is inside of me, but I can’t
do it. 19 I don’t do the good that I want to do, but I do the evil that I don’t
want to do. 20 But if I do the very thing that I don’t want to do, then I’m not
the one doing it anymore. Instead, it is sin that lives in me that is doing it.
21 So I find that, as
a rule, when I want to do what is good, evil is right there with me. 22 I
gladly agree with the Law on the inside, 23 but I see a different law at work
in my body. It wages a war against the law of my mind and takes me prisoner
with the law of sin that is in my body. 24 I’m a miserable human being. Who
will deliver me from this dead corpse? 25 Thank God through Jesus Christ our
Lord! So then I’m a slave to God’s Law in my mind, but I’m a slave to sin’s law
in my body.

When our lives are
slaves to Sin, we become, lifeless beings, with no clue what is real or not. We
live in a trance that is so dead, so rotten and ugly that it’s depressing. But with Christ, we are no longer of the Law
of Sin, we are in the Grace of God. Which abounds as Paul repeatedly reminds
us, is not a joke, and is more than enough.
I know it’s hard to
realize that, but it is enough for us to put off the corruptible man, and put
on the incorruptible immortal. I believe that Paul makes this more clearer than
all of the apostles,
on this specific issue.
Corruptible vs Incorruptible
