Patrick Nichols Blessed is the man to whom God will not impute Sin! He that is Born of God (Born Again) cannot Sin! Sin is a nature that was destroyed when the nature of Christ came within the heart! So many say Well I am born again but I still sin everyday. No you stumble and stagger because of the weakness of your flesh, OR you have never truly been Born Again!

Patrick Nichols The shall a Man leave the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and be married to Christ and He is no longer the Tree of Knowledge, but He is now the Tree of Life!

Patrick Nichols Then shall a Man (You and I) leave his mother and father (Law and Prophets) -Tree of Knowledge - and shall cleave to His Wife (The Male Spirit marries the Female Body) and they shall be ONE FLESH! (A Spirit Body) Patrick Nichols So we see if Sin is a Nature that is destroyed when we are born again then how is it that we still as some say sin? Jesus did not count it as Sin, He called it transgressions. See Christ Spirit comes into your Spirit, not your flesh, therefore your flesh is still unruly and still lust after the world. You then through Christ Spirit kill out the desires of the flesh, so that your flesh becomes subject to the Spirit of Christ as before it was under Satan. Patrick Nichols That day is close at hand and the Bible says the Generation that see's Israel become a Nation again that that Generation will see the Resurrection of the Dead as well!

Patrick Nichols People who do not understand how a Christian cannot sin anymore, is simply this, they still think Sin is their deeds that they do, when it is NOT. It is a nature of "Unbelief" within the heart. Christ is empowered by Faith as Satan is empowered by faith in reverse or unbelief. It is a change of natures! Patrick Nichols The Satanic Unbelief that was in your heart is destroyed at the brightness of His Coming into your heart, as your heart was full of darkness and unbelief and Satan, It is now a heart where Faith and Light and Christ dwell. Therefore the will and desire to sin is gone forever! Praise God! Patrick Nichols See when you are born into this world, You are the Tree of Knowledge and your root is your nature to sin and your root is watered by Satan's spirit and you are a tree that produces fruit unto death. John laid the axe to that tree, by the death of Jesus Christ. Now once born again you are now the Tree of Life and your fruit is unto holiness and righteousness and love and grace and mercy and charity. Patrick Nichols Your root is now a nature of good works and faith unto God, and your root rest in the Water of Life which is the Spirit of God unto eternal Life, where as your first birth had its roots into eternal death. Now your leaves are for the healing of the Nations! You open your mouth and from within your heart The Kingdom of God within comes Jesus to the world.

Patrick Nichols Sin is NOT drinking and smoking and murder and adultery etc, those are just the fruits of Sin. Sin is the root of the tree, it is a nature that you are born with. Jesus died as a sinner, he became your sinful nature and gave you his holy righteous nature. When you accept him in your heart then a change takes place, he removes the old nature and gives to you a new one. He becomes your sin, you become his righteousness Thank you Lord for making us new beings !!!

Patrick Nichols Now this takes place in your "Inward Man" as His Spirit and Nature come into your inner man and the satanic and sinful nature is cast out. Now you are a "New Creature" in Christ! As Paul said, no longer him living as to his old sinful nature, but it was Christ the new nature living within him.

Patrick Nichols Blessed is the man to whom God will not impute Sin! He that is Born of God (Born Again) cannot Sin! Sin is a nature that was destroyed when the nature of Christ came within the heart! So many say Well I am born again but I still sin everyday. No you stumble and stagger because of the weakness of your flesh, OR you have never truly been Born Again! How does one know if they are truly "Born again " ?

Good question...One way is that if a speck of the Spirit of God came into your being how could you not know. But a Tree is known by its fruits. Look at your life, does it bear the fruits of the Spirit or the fruits of the flesh? Another to know is the will and desire to do all the things of the world is not there if you have been born again. Another way is that the Bible says, Serving God is Joy, peace and Righteousness in the Holy Ghost. The Bibles says they that are Christ have their fruits unto holiness, and it also says they they keeps their minds stayed upon Christ Jesus. Another way is the Bible says that have been born again, never come under condemnation ever again...and the wonderful simplicity of it is this, condemnation comes from Satan the Accuser when you had Sin in your heart thus condemnation kills faith, But see how once the Spirit and Faith of Christ comes within how it is impossible for you to have condemnation anymore, for Satan is not in your heart no more to condemn you, for you are not under the Law anymore and The Faith of Christ never ever doubted nor came under condemnation, neither will it ever when it resides in your heart. Plus there is a conviction of "knowing" as they say you know that you know that you know that you have been born again. God will talk to you speak to you on a daily basis and you have such a confidence when you pray as Jesus said, Father I KNOW that you hear me ALWAYS! I hope this helps! : )

I know myself for many years I did works of evil and works that were good, and I had faith to an extent but I still had horrid condemnation in my heart, It was not till some time ago that something happened in my heart and I honestly felt all worldy desire and condemnation leave my heart and a joy and peace and a conviction came into it that has never left ever since. It has been with me and

talking to me day and night! It was a World of Difference after that day. My flesh still is unruly and causes me lots of problems but it has absolutely nothing to do with my heart and my salvation in Christ anymore! My heart has been sealed in with the Faith and Righteousness of Jesus Christ forever more!

Patrick Nichols No, How can I? Now the Holy Spirit will convict me of things I need to get out of my life, but as far as condemnation the Bible says to you and I "Blessed is the man who does NOT condemn himself in those things which he allows! See Blessed is that man because he cannot absolutely never come under condemnation again for wrongs done, because it was not intentional as far as the desire did not come from his heart but he was overtaken by the weakness of his flesh and by not drawing closer to God like he should have been doing then the devil taking advantage over his flesh not his spirit then he stumbled and got into problems. does this help? Friday, September 9 at 3:01pm LikeReply Patrick Nichols See like David of Old, He got into problems by the fling with Bathsheba, but it was not charged against him as Sin, though he still had to pay for it in this life but when he drew his last breath he went to glory! Another man could have done the same thing and one day drew his last breath and died and went to hell. See it has nothing to do with our works, it has to do with what is in the heart. See if your works cannot save you, then it only stands to reason your works cannot send you to hell. So why does a person go to hell then? it is simply this, They never got Satan or Sin out of their heart! It is a state of the heart! Friday, September 9 at 3:02pm LikeReply Patrick Nichols Now works is a very good indication of what is in the heart, but not entirely! If a man after years and years ofdoing the same ole sins over and over and claims to be a christian then that man needs to check up. But another man after years and years though he still has problems but he has seen his flesh grow weaker and weaker and he see's victory after victory in his life then that is the sign that He has The Faith that has overcome the World as to that state of mind that is in the flesh and the Faith and Mind of Christ within is overpowering that carnal satanic mind in the flesh and bringing that flesh under subjection to the Mind of Christ! Friday, September 9 at 3:06pm LikeReply Patrick Nichols Now herein lies the secret to the change of the Body! The body dies because the carnal mind and weakness of the flesh tells it is has to die, but once that flesh is brought up under complete subjection to the Mind of Christ then it is married unto Christ and is become the very Body of Christ and

Christ as we know has died once and was raised from the dead to never die anymore and we being bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh we will never did anymore either. The change of the body is simply this, it is the change of the mind that the body is listening too. One mind tells it that it has to die because of sin, another mind tells it that it is impossible for it to ever sin again! and it is the bone and flesh of the Son of God and can never die again! So we crucify the weaker mind of the flesh and this body begins to adhere too and listen too and obey the Mind of Christ and it then begins to LIVE once again!!!! Oh Praise be unto God!!!!

JoAnne Miller You're gonna be a preacher one day ! Friday, September 9 at 3:12pm LikeReply Patrick Nichols LOL! I think every child of God is a preacher and should be shouting it from the rooftops! : ) Many have told me in my life that I would be a great preacher and if I had a church they would be in my congregation, but I tell them, that is all good and well but unless the Lord calls me to be that then I will just keep spreading the word whereever I go. : ) Friday, September 9 at 3:14pm LikeReply Patrick Nichols Sin is Sin the only difference is, is it Sin of the Soul, which means a person who is not born again, or is it th4e sin in the flesh, which means was it because of the weakness of the flesh. See Sin in the flesh was also taken away at Calvary but our flesh has a hard time beliving this so it still stubles and staggers around waiting for it to recognize its redemption, now the inward you and I once born again, it has received its redemption and your soul is now saved and can never die again. But the problem is your flesh, it is the one that must now receive and wit or witness, which simply means to comprehend its redemption. See it is redeemed already, but it does not reap the benefits of its redemption simply because we fail to crucify the carnal mind that dwells within this flesh. See the Body is not the problem, but the inbred Satanic mind is the problem! Friday, September 9 at 3:21pm LikeReply Patrick Nichols See when Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden they did not change from one body to another different body! It was the same body just under another mind, See they were already naked, but God said to them "Who Told You that you were naked"? See another mind had came to them! Oh my goodness Folks something is happening a change is taking place!!!!

The Change of the Body is simply this - Change the Mind that is controlling this Body. The same way you received Salvation by another Mind coming into your heart!

Why didn't you jsut say that to start with !! LOL!

Patrick Nichols Some ppl need alot more proof! : )

Here is the secret to the Change of the Body - See the Body is not the problem, but the inbred Satanic mind is the problem! This body once brought under complete subjection to the Mind of Christ will live eternally!
