Mystery in the Shadows


We live this life with some understanding and many mysteries... It is here that we seek to find the basics of our God given freedom!
Yet using our five senses appears real enough - until we come to the point of either explanation or discernment!

There are areas of concern and desire; where we can enter a shady world of shadows and doubt! This is where that we allow ourselves to come into contact with fear, doubt and can lost confidence... This is where many enter a state of inordinateness - where they seek in vain for the truth! How do or did we get into this mind numbing situation?

Well for many it is plain poor planning with stupid actions or thoughts...
It is not difficult for a person to become locked in this system of doubt and confusion!
{here is where People go into depression}

Which stems mainly from a persons self centeredness -
which comes from looking for something that will work to your heart's desire...
Being self centered is not logical!
Therefore why even go there - as it is a very limiting and time consuming action or pursuit...
i.e.{a waste of time and talent!}

Here is where a person needs to have a clear view of them self!
One of the key elements is to rid oneself of personal selfish desires! Because it is the lust of seeking after self satisfaction that drives such limiting mind set!

Life is full of warning signs and rules of conduct - which are to help prevent harm, death or disease...
From the labels on poison to the flashing lights at rail road crossing - alerts are there to tell you danger is connected!

There are many rules - laws or other warnings given out by even the religious community! Beware!
These is called legalism doctrines...

Many of which have to do with diet, or so called holy days - even special dress and certain methods of conduct in the society!
** This is how Islam and some other religions operate!

Certain religion's legal system demand special diet -
Yet, " No food will ever bring us nearer to God: and we are no worse if we do not eat it, and no better if we do eat it! " It is just that any Religious legalism is a control system...
The human nature can thrive in doing "religious duties"; somehow adhering to a religious routine which inflates the Ego and makes a person content in self- righteousness...
But it never saves the person ...

Religious legalism is called a " Yoke upon your neck "by Peter in (Acts 15:10). Because outwardly many of these "Legal " requirements seem spiritual but in actual fact are practices which accomplish nothing...
We must escape or break from the bonds of Religious Legalism!

---------------------------------------

The flesh is weak when it comes to doing the Spiritual things of God!

Because there is no Righteousness in humans apart from Christ Jesus! God's universe operates upon certain eternal principles or laws...

Heb 10:1
Christ's Sacrifice Once for All

1 For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of those things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those * who draw near.
* {Which is all those who follow religious legalism}
2 Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have had consciousness of sins?

Cross References:

Romans 8:3
For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His very own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh (human) to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh,

John 3:16-17 (NIV)
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Colossians 2:17
These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is only found in Christ.

=====================================


Following the human based religious systems upon the earth today is like following a shadow in the bright light of reality... Because it is only a shadow of the things to come; the reality however is only found in Christ!

Why try to hug a shadow when the actual reality is at hand?

Yet, religious - legalism is popularly used attempt to " measure " your Spiritual life or even brag about it!

Which is worthless is the because only Christ can connect you to the Eternal Blessing of Light and Love and Peace in the Universe!

Never all the religious legalism!

Amen!
