The world’s sin is this! Brendan Mc Crossan
5 “But now I am going away to the one who sent me; and none of you seems interested in the purpose of my going; none wonders why. 6 Instead you are only filled with sorrow. 7 but the fact of the matter is, that it is best for you that I go away, for if I don’t the Comforter won’t come. If I do, he will—for I will send him to you.
Brendan Mc Crossan Copyright@23 08 2015
8 “And when he has come ‘’he will convince the world of its sin,’’ and ‘’of’’ the ‘’availability of God’s goodness,’’ ‘’and of deliverance from judgment.’’ 9 The ‘’world’s sin is ‘’unbelief’’ in me;’’ 10 there is ‘’righteousness’’ ‘’available because I go to the Father’’ and you shall see me no more; 11 there is ‘’deliverance from judgment’’ because the prince of this world has already been judged.
Many people imagine that sin is doing something wrong, something forbidden, something like stealing, homosexual behaviour, adultery, lying and many other types of sin, and they are ‘sins’ but these ‘sins’ will never separate you from God for he knows we all sin, and sometimes cannot help it, but the sin he is most concerned about is the ‘’sin of unbelief.’’ We were born into sin because of Adam and Eve’s sin of disobedience, but Jesus paid the price for that sin on Calvary. But the main sin that truly offends God is this – ‘’unbelief in me’’ says he. For if God who says the sin that affects us the most, is the ‘’sin of unbelief’’ then it has to be true.
One The world’s sin is this, ‘’unbelief in me’’ John 16-5-Living Bible (TLB)
But in the truth from a heavenly father’s perspective is, the one that hurts us the most is unbelief in him, and what he done for us, and for whom he says we are, now that Jesus has finished his work in this world. The sin of unbelief in him Jesus is the only sin that will keep you out of heaven; no other sin will have this effect on us. It is ‘’not believing’ that we are loved unconditionally’’ that offends him, it is ‘’not believing’ in what Jesus accomplished for us on Calvary that offends him,’ it is having ‘’no faith in him’ at all that ‘’offends him,’’ this is the world’s ‘sin,’ ‘’unbelief’ in what he as Almighty God done for us his own divine children,’’ ‘’not believing’’ that we are now ‘’Holy,’’ the same as Jesus, is what offends him. The sin of ‘’not believing we are forgiven’’ is what offends him; it is the sin of ‘’refusing to accept that our sins are ‘’forever forgiven and forgotten,’’ that offends him.’’ Unbelief means this ‘’non-belief,’’ ‘’scepticism,’’ ‘’incredulity,’’ ‘’agnosticism,’’ ‘’atheism,’’ ‘’disbelief.’’ What does Jesus call unbelief; he calls it ‘’hardness of heart.’’ Mark 16 14 Living Bible (TLB) 14 Still later he appeared to the eleven disciples as they were eating together. He rebuked them for their ‘’unbelief;’’ their ‘’stubborn’’ ‘’refusal to believe’’ those who had seen him alive from the dead. And upbraided them with their ‘’unbelief and hardness of heart,’’ Upbraided = to speak in an angry or critical way, to find fault with or reproach severely. {Example=the military tribunal upbraided the soldier for his cowardice.}[Dictionary]
I thought that sex sin would be the worst, some may say lying is the worst for them, or theft is the worst for them, but the truth remains that it is the sin of unbelief that has the most profound effect on us.

You can never please God without faith, without depending on him. Anyone who wants to come to God must ‘’believe’ that there ‘is a God’’ and that he ‘’rewards those who sincerely look for him.’’ I never gave much thought to this scripture until now, but now I am beginning to see something that has a profound effect on our lives and especially our believing and expectation on something from God. ‘For ‘’without faith’’ ‘’it is impossible to please God,’’ ‘’without depending on him’’ ‘’for everything.’’ I have tried my very best, or what I believe is my best, to try and please God, but all he really is asking from me is to ‘’believe him,’’ in what I am seeking from him, and depending on him for whatever it is I need, and that he will give it to me. But it is wrong for me to try and please God as if seeking his approval for I have his approval anyway for he loves me unconditionally, and tells me I am pleasing in his sight.
Hebrews 13:21 Amplified Bible
Strengthen (complete, perfect) and make you what you ought to be and, equip you with everything good that you may carry out His will; [while He Himself] works in you and ‘’accomplishes’’ that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ
You would think that those with hardness of heart would be murders, or people like the modern day evil terrorists, ‘Isis,’ those men and women who rape and mutilate woman; and kill little children by beheading them, or setting them on fire; and killing others by unthinkable evil ways, but it is not those whom Jesus calls ‘’hard of heart,’’ here was ‘’his very own disciples’’ the men and women he had spent so much time with, teaching them faith, and belief in him, cowering in the upper room, and he calls them ‘’hard hearted.’’ What would he call us now that we are his very own children? Would our attitudes be pleasing to him or would he rebuke us too? Without faith you cannot please God.
Jesus upbraided his disciples with angry words accusing them of cowardice; he spoke severely to them, but then he turned around and told them to ‘’go into the world and preach the gospel.’’
Hebrews 11:6-Living Bible (TLB)
(the Messiah); to whom be the glory forever and ever (to the ages of the ages). Amen (so be it). God himself is working in us doing what pleases ‘’him,’’ and making us pleasing in his sight forever, and did you ‘’note’’ that this scripture says, ‘’he himself’’ ‘’accomplishes in you what is pleasing in his sight,’’ it matters not what we think we look like to ourselves or to others, but how we look to God, for he is the one who is working daily in us to make us more and more like Jesus, and ‘’he ‘accomplishes’ his work in us,’’ it’s not what we do for we have no value in ourselves; but to him we are of the highest value, for we are made in his own divine image and likeness-Genesis 1 27. We have Jesus help in everything we do for it is he who works in us in the father for his own glory; he works in us and all we need to do is ‘’believe’’ that he works in us for his glory, and did you notice that scripture says, ‘’and ‘’ accomplishes ’’ that which is pleasing in his sight! Accomplishes = {Accomplish definition, to bring to its goal or conclusion; carry out; perform; finish: to accomplish one's mission. God, through Jesus in us, is doing all this work in us to help us attain his godly instructions, and he accomplishes in us everything; ‘’it is finished’’ as far as he is concerned for don’t forget that ‘’Jesus is the ‘’author and finisher’’ of ‘’our faith;’’ for he knows without faith we cannot please God; so ‘’he supplies it’’ and ‘’he will increase our faith’’ to finish the tasks he has set before us. If only we could remember that ‘’we have become one with and in Christ Jesus,’’ we have become one in spirit in him, and of course this means he is in us working out our perfection in faith and in acts, we are never on our own except when we lay Jesus aside to go our own ways.
I am not doing what I may think is ‘my work,’ but I am just available for ‘his work’ ‘’already accomplished [finished] in me,’’ as I receive faith to accomplish what he started in me from him. ‘’Can I ask him for more faith, so that I can expect to see the deformed and hopeless cases healed for his glory?’’ Yes I can. Mark 9 20 Living Bible (TLB)
He asked Jesus for more faith and Jesus answered him by rebuking the demon from the boy and healing him. From this scripture alone comes the revelation that Jesus does indeed help us to have more faith when asked Mark 9 25 Living Bible (TLB)
25 When Jesus saw the crowd was growing, he rebuked the demon. “O demon of deafness and dumbness,” he said, “I command you to come out of this child and enter him no more!”
26 Then the demon screamed terribly and convulsed the boy again and left him; This father had faith but it wasn’t enough faith to heal his son so *he asked Jesus for more faith* to believe in him and in his ability to heal his son. When we feel like we have reached a point where our faith in God is weak, we have the right to ask Jesus for more faith to help us believe as he would have us believe for whatever miracle we need, and Jesus responded to this man’s heartfelt request by casting that demon out of him and healing him. What he done for others he will do for you. If you see in scripture Jesus doing something for someone, then realise that he will do the same for you when you ask with faith in him, for more faith; for Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.
Hebrews 13:8 Amplified Bible Jesus Christ is [eternally changeless, always] the same yesterday and today and forever. What he has done for others he is obliged to do the same for you for he loves us all equally, we are no different for Jesus does not have any favourites. Romans 2New International Version (NIV) 11 For God does not show favouritism.
20 So they brought the boy, but when he saw Jesus, the demon convulsed the child horribly, and he fell to the ground writhing and foaming at the mouth.21 “How long has he been this way?” Jesus asked the father. And he replied, “Since he was very small, 22 and the demon often makes him fall into the fire or into water to kill him. Oh, have mercy on us and do something if you can.” 23 “If I can?”Jesus asked.“Anything is possible if ‘’you’’ have faith.” 24 The father instantly replied, I do have faith, help me to have more. “I do have faith; oh, help me to have more’’
41-JOHN-4:4-The-Way-BibleYeareofGod,littlechildren,
and have overcome ‘’THEM:’’ because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Who is the “them” we have overcome? We find from reading the first three verses of First John chapter 4 that John was talking about the devil and all of his cohorts. Notice he didn’t say we are going to overcome them; he said *we have overcome them.* How could we have overcome these demons? Because what Christ did was marked to our credit. He did it as our Substitute. (He did it in our place, and God marked it to our credit as though you and I were the ones who did it!)
Someone may ask, “If we’ve overcome them, why are we having such a problem with them?” Because we don’t know or believe we have overcome them, or we aren’t walking in the light of what we do know. When you know what the Bible says and walk in the light of it, you don’t need someone else to exercise his faith for you.
If you just think you’ve learned the truth, the devil will put you to the test to see if you really believe what you say you believe. Now can you understand why John said, “You have overcome them . . .” (1 John 4:4)? You have overcome them. Christ acted in your stead. He did it for you. You have overcome them because Jesus has overcome them (all these spirits). You’re not going to overcome them; you ‘’have’’ overcome them. No, we’re not bragging about what you are in the flesh. (You don’t amount to much in the flesh.) We’re talking about who you are in Christ in spirit. You see, you now have the same eternal life Jesus has. The Bible says, “He that hath the Son hath life . . .” (1 John 5:12). You have the Son, so you have the life. That means you can say, “I have taken Jesus as my Saviour. I have confessed Him as my Lord. God has given me eternal life His own nature. I am a new creature, created in Christ Jesus. I have God’s ability to perform the good works that were prepared beforehand for me to walk in” (Eph. 2:10).
You can say, “I have God’s ability, because I have God’s nature. I have dwelling in me the same great, mighty, wonderful Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead” (Rom. 8:11).
You can say, quoting First John 4:4, “Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world.” {Extract from Kenneth Hagin’s page} Or you can say, ‘’I don’t believe this and suffer the defeat of unbelief,’’ No faith in the word of the Almighty God who told you the truth in his divine word Hebrews 13-14-Living Bible (TLB)
For this world is not our home; we are looking forward to our everlasting home in heaven.
15 With Jesus’ help we will continually offer our ‘’sacrifice of praise’’ to God by ‘’telling others of the glory of his name.’’ 16 Don’t forget to do well and to share what you have with those in need, for ‘’such sacrifices are very pleasing to him.’’ We are always alone trying to do things from our own strength, but we have Jesus’ help in everything when we depend on him. When are we going to believe that God wants us to succeed in everything; believing him in everything we do, for we have his help making us grow more and more into the image of his divine son in ‘spirit,’ and we also have ‘’Jesus help’’ in everything we do, and it pleases God when we tell others the glory of his name, and what he accomplished on the cross on Calvary for us for all time.

At the moment I am having healing services in a bar along with my Son in law, and recently I see he is praying with three times as many people as I am, and they are receiving healing faster with him than they are through me, and yet he preaches wrong, quoting scripture wrong, but it doesn’t matter to God. Those whom he is praying with are receiving their healing, and that is what
matters most to me, or is it? Am I feeling left out? I seem to get those with terminal cancer or strokes or sever MS and I am left to pray with those people first. For an example last night a poor man and his wife came to the service, he came for prayer, he told me he had cancer before our meeting started. I called a man up to be prayed with who came in first to the service; who had shared with me earlier that he had pain everywhere in his body, so I thought ‘pain is easy’ thank God. So I called him up and as he made his way out from behind a table, I turned around a moment to get something from my bible; as I turned back again he had walked past me to go to Des, my son in law, and sat down with him to be prayed with. So I had no choice but to ask this other man who came in with his wife, to come forward for prayer next, so they came to the chair that I had set out for those being prayed with, and he sat down and she sat in a chair by his side and I asked him what was wrong with him, knowing he had cancer but I wanted to see what kind of cancer, and how bad was it. He literally told me he is dying as cancer is everywhere in his body, and he looked exactly like he said; he looked like someone dying. I prayed with him for nearly an hour with no sign of change in his body, he still had pain in his back from the tumour there.
Then I began praying healing power into his cancer affected parts, but he felt no different, his pain remained the same, he felt nothing, and I seen nothing happening.
When I first begin to pray with people I usually do a test, it’s called arm and leg adjustment, and I always see healing go into the body using this method, and sure enough when he stretched out his arms I seen that his right arm was an inch shorter than his left, so I commanded healing into it and the arms corrected themselves. And then I checked out his bottom half and saw again that his left leg was shorter than his right by an inch, I again commanded healing and his body obeyed and corrected itself as the leg grew that inch in front of his wife.
I didn’t realise between talking with them about how he can receive his healing, and praying with him, an hour had passed.
Then the Holy Spirit told me his wife was in pain in her back, so I switched from him to her, and I prayed with her and she received her healing within minutes, all pain was gone. I will come back to this man later in this book. And as I looked around me I seen that everyone was gone, Des had prayed with them all, and they were all healed; except for a man who waits for me to pray with him, he had a stroke and is receiving his healing gradually. And last night was no exception as the lord revealed the blockage to his healing, he hated himself, and so healing would go into him and then come back out. How can healing go into someone who hates themselves; they are rejecting their own healing and this has been making him violently sick with stomach pains and vomiting. He hated himself because he once was a very active man, but now he is paralyzed down his left side, and seemingly getting worse no matter about the prayer, and the worst part for him now is his wife has to look after him like a little baby, as he cannot even go to the toilet without her help; he is totally dependent on her and he hates this for he feels useless and humiliated. Last night the lord reminded him that he stood at the altar and proclaimed ‘’for rich or for poor,’’ ‘’in sickness and in health’’ they promised to love each other, and now that vow was in effect, as his wife has now to look after him where once it was him looking after her, seeing to all her needs, and he found this now his sickness so very hard to accept. I explained as the lord directed me, that he needs to ‘’repent’’ for holding Unforgiveness against himself, because of his stroke’ and he has to now accept that he cannot change or get better, that his marriage vow has to be seriously acted upon, in ‘’sickness’’ and in ‘’health.’’ He must accept that he is now dependent upon his loving wife, and as she looks after him, instead of feeling ‘resentment at himself,’ because he cannot do anything for himself, he must let his loving wife do it for him, and this is very hard for him as he is a proud man. Not realising of course that pride is a sin, and sin sometimes stops you from receiving the healing love of God.
And that he has to accept this moment there is nothing he can do to change his circumstance, he must accept it. Now I explained that he does not have to accept sickness, for sickness is from the devil, and not from God; but for the moment he must accept that he as a man can do nothing about it, and so must surrender his sickness over to God in acceptance, and then allow God to turn
Maybe you who are reading this little booklet, can see yourself here in it, and have wondered why you have not received your healing yet, and maybe this man’s story will help you open your eyes and see it is you who block your own healing, and not God not wanting to heal you.
that whole lot to good for him later on. Perhaps this very week even as he lets go, and lets God help him accept first of all his wife’s loving tender care. And then after let the lord heal his sick body. What’s this got to do with unbelief, well it is the man’s unbelief that God loves him exactly as he is for a start, but he then refuses to forgive as God says to ‘’forgive,’’ to ‘’love your neighbour as you love yourself.’’ His unbelief is that he will not do as God says in his word, ‘’love yourself’’ as he is supposed to ‘love his neighbour,’ so how can he obey that command when he won’t even love himself through unbelief that Jesus died for him as well as dying for the entire world. Unbelief that God wants to see him well and walking and the truth is that he is ‘’already healed’’ through ‘’Jesus taking his sickness and disease on his own divine body and killed it on the cross on Calvary.’’ He does not believe this, for his body is crippled by the stroke and that is what he sees; he does not see the truth that Jesus already healed him and all he has to do is receive it through faith in his word, so unbelief is there no matter how hard it has been to receive the word that I have been preaching every week that he came, that ‘’it is done already’’ and is not going to be done, he or others will not be healed through our prayers, but they will receive their own healing through the finished work of the cross. And it is unbelief that this has already happened that is preventing them from receiving.
Man, especially religious man say, ‘’accept your sickness and disease’’ for ‘’God gave you the back to carry that burden;’’ or God gave you this ‘’cross to bear,’’ or ‘’it is not the will of God to heal you,’’ or that you’re a ‘’sinner who does not deserve to be healed;’’ or that ‘’this is a gift from God to help pay for the sins of the world,’’ all of which are downright filthy lies told to you by the enemy through man, priest, vicar or religious people, or simply by some stupid man who reads a little bit of bible and thinks we are called to suffer, lies told to them all by the devil, who does not want you healed, and living life to the full as Jesus told us he wants us living this life.
Jesus told us that the devil is our enemy and ‘’he is the author of sickness and disease’’ and do we believe him, especially when we face God and say to him
1 Peter 2 24 Good News Translation (GNT) Christ himself carried our sins in his body to the cross, so that we might die to sin and live for righteousness. It is by his wounds that you have been healed.
help me carry this burden or cross Lord God. Agggggggggggg! I hate God being blamed for the devils actions. John 10:10 Amplified Bible
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. ‘’I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).’’ Jesus says he came to give life to the full, most Christian religious people who live in a church environment don’t know or even understand that Jesus came to give them life to the full, they have been taught that sickness is the will of God, to try and help us pay for our sins, or is a burden given to us by God to help us is some weird way, or that we must carry our cross like Jesus done. Who called you to pay for the sins of the world, when it has already been done for you and for all of us? It sure wasn’t God for he knows that Jesus paid the full price for us all. So then who is lying to you? None other than the devil, he is deceiving this fallen world, this Godless world that has turned away from the true God because or religiosity teachings that are foreign to the bible the living word of God. The worlds sin is this, -‘’unbelief in me,’’ and so the devil is trying to keep this fallen world in the darkness it is in by deceiving them with religiosity and false doctrine, and just plain unbelief in a loving Father God who loves us unconditionally.
The sin of the world is ‘’unbelief’ ‘in me,’’ unbelief that Jesus took your sickness and bore your diseases on the cross on Calvary and put them to death.
This is what Jesus done for you; he suffered on the cross for your sin, your spiritual sin of unbelief; and as he hung there on that cross, and beforehand, he was scourged at the pillar, taking on to his body your sickness and diseases, and putting them to death as he died. And we don’t believe him in what he did for it seems to be too easy too far out to be believed, that a loving God would do away with your sin because he loves you.
Is this the word of God for us? Is this truth set down, written in stone by God, yes it is! To disbelieve this means you have sinned; for the world’s sin is this, ‘’unbelief in me.’’ ‘’Not believing that God loved us so much’’ that he done something already about sickness and disease in this world for his children; he destroyed it through Jesus Christ the saviour of the world, there is no other saviour, the doctors are not saviours, the surgeons are not saviours, the health service are not saviour’s of the worlds sick, only Jesus is saviour, and it is only through him that we are ‘’already saved’’ and ‘’already healed.’’ Did you see for yourself the truth in the previous scripture, it is by ‘’his wounds’’ that ‘’you have been healed already’’ it is done and will never be done again, it must be acclaimed by you the person who is sick or in pain, and then we can lay hands on you and command that sickness and disease to get the hell out of your body, for your body belongs to the Holy Spirit. To refuse to believe that, and to refuse to accept that means that you sin against God’s divine word, it will never send you to hell but it will rob you of divine health and make you doubt your salvation. ‘’I will make this as blunt as I possibly can,’’ if you ‘’do not believe’’ what God says in his divine word ‘’you in effect are calling God a liar!’’ Do you realise this, ‘’you are calling God a liar,’’ saying ‘’he does not love you;’’ that ‘’Jesus didn’t die for you personally,’’ that ‘’God did not defeat the devil through his sons sacrifice, planned by God;’’ to ‘’arrange for us to receive ‘salvation’ through his plan, predetermined through Jesus his own Son. There is no other way I can describe unbelief, it is in effect ‘’calling God a liar’’ by refusing to believe what he done out of his awesome fatherly love for you personally, not just the world but you as you are’ for he has such love for you. When God says in his word, ‘’I chose you from before the world began,’’ and you don’t believe it when you first or many times hear it, and still refuse to believe this means you, then you are again calling God a liar, by saying he could never do all this for you, and this is sin, the ‘sin’ of the world and the worlds ‘sin’ is refusing to believe what our Holy God has done for you alone,

7 10 Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, his blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, we’re a free people—‘’free of penalties and punishments’’ chalked up by all ‘’our’’ ‘’misdeeds.’’ And not just barely free, either, abundantly free!
He set it all out before us in Christ, a long-range plan in which everything would be brought together and summed up in him, everything in deepest heaven, and everything on planet earth.
13 14
never mind the rest of the world; it was for you personally; yet you refuse to believe him, ‘then that is ‘sin.’ **This is the first time I have introduced this bible into any of my books, for I think the translation is too long for most readers who never read a bible but I thought that this bible has such a loving rendering of the word that it would not be right to just use a normal bible. This Message Bible has an extended translation to help new readers understand the love of God for us and what he done for us through Jesus. ** Ephesians 1 3 The Message (MSG)
‘’He thought of everything,’’ ‘’provided for ~everything~ we could possibly need,’’ letting us in on the plans he took such delight in making.
3 6 How blessed is God! And what a blessing he is! He’s the Father of our Master, Jesus Christ, and takes us to the high places of blessing ‘’in him.’’ ‘’Long before he laid down earth’s foundations, he ‘’had us in mind,’’ had settled on us as the focus of his love, to be made ‘’whole’’ and ‘’holy’’ ‘’by his love.’’ Long, long ago he decided to adopt us into his family through Jesus Christ. (What pleasure he took in planning this!) He wanted us to enter into the celebration of his lavish gift-giving by the hand of his beloved Son.
It’s ‘’in Christ’’ that you, once you heard the truth and believed it (this Message of your salvation), found yourselves home free—signed, sealed, and delivered by the Holy Spirit. This signet from God is the first instalment on what’s coming, a reminder that we’ll get everything God has planned for us, a praising and glorious life. The bible I would normally use it the living Bible so let’s see what that says.
It’s ‘’in Christ’’ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ and got our hopes up, he had his eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose he is working out in everything and everyone.
Ephesians 1 4 The living bible 4 Long ago, even before he made the world, God chose us to be his very own through what Christ would do for us; he decided then to make us holy in his eyes, without a single fault—we who stand before him covered with his love. If you chose ‘’not to believe’’ that God chose you and decided to make you ‘’Holy’’ as far as he is concerned; {forget about how you feel or what others say about you,} then ‘’you chose to sin’’ for ‘’you are calling God a liar.’’ I emphasise this to you to try and get you to understand how momentous his word is. You can see in these two different translations how much God loves you for he calls you Holy just like himself. Message Bible Ephesians 1 7 10 Because of the sacrifice of the Messiah, his blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, we’re a free people ‘’free of penalties and punishments’’ chalked up by all ‘’our’’ ‘’misdeeds.’’ And not just barely free, either, abundantly free! [Message *Bible]hedecided then to make us holy in his eyes, without a single fault, [TLB]
The message bible is such an amazing bible, that it expands even more than the Amplified bible, the simple truth of the living word of God, for it continues to explain that you are ‘’counted free from sin,’’ ‘’counted free from any penalties’’ and any ‘’punishments.’’ It tells us clearly that it all happened through the sacrifice of Jesus Do you now believe how much God loves you; do you think that he would wish his children to be suffering when he had Jesus suffer for you?
Romans 8:15 The living Bible And so we should ‘’not’’ be like ‘’cringing, fearful slaves,’’ but we should behave like God’s very own children, adopted into the bosom of his family, and calling to him, “Father, Father” Do you believe that God is your father? He is, if you gave your life to Jesus, and accepted him into your heart as your ‘’lord and saviour,’’ for in doing so you accepted salvation and all God’s promises through Jesus to you.
John 10:10Amplified Bible
Healing is his promises to you, no sickness to have to suffer, if you chose to believe him and not the devils lies to you, as told to you by man.
Sin in the body can mean sexual sin or other sins that affect the body; like having sex with someone with aids or other sexual transmitted diseases; then this sin affects the body; and also leave us with a spiritual connection to the person we sinned with for the two of us have become one, for the rest of our lives, for we carry them around with us unless repented of, and the cord cut between you and them. And if they connect with another person sexually then you in effect are connected to them also, and the list grows if we have more and more partners and so until all these are cut off from us they will remain with us all our lives.
1-Corinthians 6:16-20 The Message
There’s more to sex than mere skin on skin. Sex is as much spiritual mystery as physical fact. As written in Scripture, “The two become one.” Since we want to become spiritually one with the Master, we must not pursue the kind of sex that avoids commitment and intimacy, leaving us lonelier than ever the kind of sex that can never “become one.” There is a sense in which sexual sins are different from all others. In sexual sin we violate the sacredness of our own bodies, these bodies that were made for God given and God modelled love, for “becoming one” with another. Or didn’t you realize that your body is a sacred place, the place of the Holy Spirit? Don’t you see that you can’t live however you please;
The ‘’thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy.’’ ‘’I came that they may have and enjoy life, and ‘’have it in’ ‘’abundance’’ (to the full, till it overflows).’’ Sin is disbelieving his word, saying God gave us disease is unbelief in the true God who sent his son Jesus to take upon himself our sickness and diseases and sins. Now can you see how unbelief affects you; it affects you in every aspect of your life for it affects your relationship with God. The sins we sin in the body have an effect on the body; the sin we sin in the soul have an effect the soul, the sin we sin in the spirit sends us to hell, and this sin is rejecting our salvation through the works of Jesus, refusing to accept salvation thereby refusing to believe God.
The sins we sin in the soul have an effect on the soul, for the soul is the mind and it is sinning against the word by refusing to believe the word. Soul sin can be controlling someone, manipulating someone for your own will, and other things concerning the use of the soul, [mind.]I.e. impure thoughts, Sin is still in our bodies and minds for St Paul says we sin even when we don’t want to. Romans 12:21 New American Standard Bible
Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. We must become transformed by the living word of God, the Bible, and it renews our minds as we study it and come to the realization that we are what we are in Christ Jesus. Matthew 15-16 Living Bible (TLB) “Don’t you understand?”Jesus asked him.17 “Don’t you see that anything you eat passes through the digestive tract and out again?18 But evil words come from an evil heart and defile the man who says them.19 For from the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, lying, and slander. 20 These are what defile; The sin we commit against the spirit is refusing to accept our salvation and this is the only sin that will allow you to go to hell by your own free will, God does not send us to hell because of sin, it is you who sends yourself to hell by refusing to accept /believe, what Jesus done for you; by refusing to accept your own salvation offered to you by your loving father. John 1Living Bible (TLB)
squandering what God paid such a high price for? The physical part of you is not some piece of property belonging to the spiritual part of you. God owns the whole works. So let people see God in and through your body.
“This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since
But to all who received him, ‘’he gave the right to become children of God.’’ All they needed to do was to trust him to save them.13 All those who believe this are reborn!—not a physical rebirthresulting from human passion or plan but from the will of God. If you don’t believe this then you have rejected the word of the living God and so you send yourself to hell, you rejected the spirit of God.
The Message (MSG) John 3:16 18 The Message (MSG)
The sin of unbelief
The sin of unbelief will not send you to hell for we ‘’all have unbelief’’ in us; but it will restrict us from receiving God’s best for us. It is the sin of refusing to accept your salvation offered to you by God that ‘’you send yourself’’ ‘’to hell’’ by your own choice. It is never the will of God that anyone including you should go to hell. It saddens him every time someone refuses to accept his offer of eternal life in eternal joy and happiness in him, through Jesus sacrifice for you. But it is their choice and I hope you the reader never make that choice. Sin is unbelief, not believing what Jesus done for you and not believing that it was God’s plan to use Jesus to save and to heal you, through him taking ‘your sickness’ on to his body 2018 years ago; and now is the time you need to place that sickness and disease on to his body as he paid for your disease back then so it is time this went into effect for you now today. God sacrificed his one and only son for us to save us from hell and to heal our bodies.
‘’Lord I am not worthy to receive you but only say the word and I shall be healed.’’ This statement has a profound effect on people for they are declaring out of their mouths every day they are unworthy, and whether they realise the damage they are having on their spirit and soul it still goes into them they are unworthy as far as God is concerned. It is a declaration of a downright lie spoken out of the mouth every time someone goes to Mass and goes to receive communion, and the word of God tells us that we will give an account to God for every idle word spoken by us; so if we speak unbelief it has an effect on us for life unless repented of and removed by grace. Did you know that the word ‘’unworthy’’ means ‘’to be like dog shit on the sole of your shoe.’’ Unworthy undeserving, worthless, not fit for anything, not good enough, contemptible, pitiful, shameful, How can we feel that we deserve to be healed when all our lives since little children going to mass we’re confessing out of our mouth, that we are not worthy, not worthy means to be ‘’unworthy. ‘’Lord I am not worthy,’’ and yet God says, ‘’let no one declare you unworthy.’’
Colossians 2:18-20Amplified Bible (AMP)
18 Let no one defraud you by acting as an umpire and declaring you unworthy and disqualifying you for the prize, insisting on self abasement and worship of angels, taking his stand on visions [he claims] he has seen, vainly puffed up by his sensuous notions and inflated by his unspiritual thoughts and fleshly conceit,
And not holding fast to the Head, from whom the entire body, supplied and knit together by means of its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.
19
But for some Christians it is hard to love themselves for they have grown up with condemnation all their lives, especially so for Catholics who when they go to Mass have to say these words before they go to receive communion
been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why, because of that person’s ‘’failure’’ to ‘’believe’’ in the one of a kind Son of God when introduced to him We find it hard to love ourselves, and yet God loved us so much that he sacrificed his only son for us, to help us learn to love ourselves as he loves us.
How can we say we love ourselves when we cannot accept that we are ‘’holy spotless and forever perfect in the sight of God’’- Hebrews 10 14 did you know that this, {we are not worthy} changes every forth month at mass and we say; ‘’thank you lord for this food we are about to receive through Jesus Christ our Whatlord.’’ happened to us for the rest of those three months in the Catholic churches calendar? Did we change and become terrible people. This section of the Mass is the original one, {thank you lord etc} then because the popes and cardinals sinned terrible way back then, and done demonic things like having sex with their own daughters, having orgies, and murdering people, yes this is in history not a putdown of the Catholic church, search it out and see for yourself; so how could the pope and cardinals say Mass with the words, ‘’thank you lord for counting us worthy to receive you.’’ They destroyed the word of God by their disgusting sins, and then couldn’t pray saying, ‘’thank you lord’’ etc, so they changed it to ‘’lord I am not worthy,’’ no wonder they weren’t worthy they were sinners of the worst kind, ‘’hypocrites.’’
This statement is a contradiction of terms for one says, ‘’I am saved’’ and the other says, ‘’I am a sinner’’ who is going to hell as far as the word of God is concerned. Both of these statements have a subconscious affect on the soul for it is a contradiction to the word of God. They are either a ‘’sinner or saved’’ they cannot be both. All this has an effect on us in regards to the word; do we believe the word or do we sin and say ‘’were sinners’ and claim ‘’were saved,’’ remember we cannot be both. The worlds sin is this ‘’unbelief’’ ‘’in me,’’ do they believe they are sinners, or saved by grace, which is it? For the word says a double minded man shall receive nothing from God.
James 1 6 Living Bible (TLB)
What they did had a profound effect on us Catholics and the protestant were no better for they say, ‘’lord I am a ‘’sinner’’ saved by grace;’’ or ‘’we are ‘’sinners’’ washed in the blood of the lamb.’’
20 If then you have died with Christ to material ways of looking at things and have escaped from the world’s crude and elemental notions and teachings of externalism, why do you live as if you still belong to the world? [Why do you submit to rules and regulations?
6 But when you ask him, be sure that you really expect him to tell you, for a doubtful mind will be as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind; 7 8 and every decision you then make will be uncertain, as you turn first this way and then that. If you don’t ask with faith, don’t expect the Lord to give you any solid answer. You have to have a convinced mind to stand before God to receive from him, for if you don’t, ‘you’ are ‘expressing ‘’unbelief’’ before him and that is sin as far as God is concerned. And is displeasing to him; for without faith you cannot please God. To return to our healing service night I spent about two hours between those three people and when I looked, Des had prayed with all the rest. And I thought what use is there for me being there; maybe I should just let Des do the healings and not me.
My problem is I asked God for ‘’his perfect will,’’ and to send us the worst affected people, those whom the world cannot help. Now we are getting those terminally ill or suffering from stroke or some other diabolical sickness it seems to be me that gets them.
Then inwardly I complain instead of seeing that this is the ones he wants me to pray with, I never gave it much thought till now as I write this so I must stop complaining to God and let him do what he is best at; healing. I also realise that it is in me where the problem lies, the secrete truth inside of me wants these people to just jump up at the name of Jesus and walk, and I realise now ‘’it is for me that I want this,’’ so that I can brag to others that the cripple are being healed through me; for deep down inside of me I want people to see me, {what! Who’s Jesus?} I thought that I had surrendered my pride and will to God before these healing services but the sin of unbelief it still lives inside me deep down, for I want these people healed through me, it is to my shame that I have to face this today, to have to acknowledge that deep in my sub consciousness lies unbelief, that God just loves me enough to use me for his glory. But a part of me wishes to have the glory part first, even though I know that God shares his glory with me, but I am looking to share my glory with God, the opposite way about. Thank God for his mercy and forgiveness as I now repent for what lies beneath.
Romans 3 27 Living Bible (TLB) 28 So it is that we are ‘’saved’’ by ‘’faith in Christ’’ and not by the good things we do.
Then he said, “This is God’s message to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord Almighty you will succeed because of my Spirit, though you are few and weak.’ The success of the deformed and dying being healed and restored will be by my acknowledging that ‘’I cannot do what I thought I could through my prayer power’’ but through the Spirit of God in me.’’ God loves me enough to correct me when I am on a wrong path, so I repent of following my own agendas, known or otherwise, to desire only to follow his will and instructions, for it is by his grace that this will happen.
There are many various ways that we can shelve unbelief, anything that ‘God done’ and ‘said he done’ is obtained through belief, or faith as it is also called, and as I just realised, can be obstructed through pride in my own agendas, known or unknown to me. Unbelief in me is a problem for my unbelief is I don’t trust God enough to heal those crippled people instantly for them and not for me as previously exposed. ‘Sin is unbelief’ and so when I finally believe that God loves these people for ‘them,’ not through what I can do in my prayer power that is when they will receive their healing. As he showed me last week, not by might nor by power, but by my spirit says the lord.
Zechariah 4:6 Living Bible
‘’My unbelief is’’ ‘’I ask for the worst to be sent,’’ and then I get them, and then complain as it takes so long praying with those poor suffering souls. In my pride I have hindered them from receiving the healing Jesus obtained for them on Calvary.
Hebrews 12 2 King James Version (KJV)
We are saved though faith and not by what we do. I need to learn deeply in my innermost being that there is nothing of me in relationship with, and in God; it is all by him and by ‘’his grace.’’ Nothing comes to me by works of my hand or anything else it comes to me through faith given to me by God and by ‘’Jesus the author and finisher of my faith,’’ not by anything I do, for I cannot impress God by my actions but only by belief in him and what he done for me and others, there is no me involved in this action of his and it is time I learned this once and for all.
12 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. I must keep reminding myself that it is God who is the one who has done everything, and it is Jesus who is writing my faith story. I am the one who must follow my story as I see it lay out before me.
Romans 5-1 Living Bible (TLB)
5 1 So now, since we have been ‘’made right in God’s sight’’ by ‘’faith’’ in his promises,’’ I acknowledge before God that it by faith in his promises that makes me right with him at all times. If he promised me something then I will get what he promised me, for he is a God who does not lie.
John 6:29 TLB Jesus told them, “This is the ‘will of God’ that you ‘’believe’’ ‘’in the ‘’one’’ he has sent.” I hear many people ask, ‘’what is God’s will for my life.’’ And the answer to that question is to ‘’believe in the one that he has sent’’ and that is ‘’Jesus Christ.’’ Believing in what he was sent to do and believing that he successfully done it, and then ‘’acting like it is true’’ is ‘faith’ and is the ‘’perfect will of God for you.’’
I am asking God for more faith, the kind of faith that heals MS and M E, and those with terrible disfigurements just as Jesus healed those who came to him for help, and he healed them all without exception. That same power is mine and yours but are we ready to receive such power, can we stand saying all glory belongs to him without saying down inside, it’s me that he does this through, thus allowing pride to get in to us, I know I had to face that one two weeks ago.
The word of God is alive, as faith is also alive, when produced, for it is always new, and it is also filled with grace from God to help us achieve the glorious wonders that God has prepared for us from before the beginning of time, faith is to bring glory to the name of Jesus, that is what faith is supposed to do for us.
But now something has changed for me, I feel that God is calling me deeper into faith in Jesus name and what that name does for those who are ill, and deep down inside me something is stirring, for I want to see the impossible happen and see the splendour of the name of Jesus as it raises the dying, those with terminal diseases and deformities receive their healing.
Romans 4:16 Living Bible
For me recently I realised that I didn’t have as much faith in Jesus name as I first believed. I prayed with people and for thirty nine years I have seen God heal those receiving prayer; I am so grateful to him for his grace and mercy.
So God’s blessings are given to us by ‘’faith,’’ as a free gift; we are certain to get them whether or not we follow Jewish customs if we have ‘’faith’’ like Abraham’s, for Abraham is the father of us all when it comes to these matters of ‘’faith ’’ Unbelief in his awesome wondrous name
Faith in his name, faith given us by God, Romans 1-7-Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSVCE)
5 through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations
Acts 3Living Bible (TLB)
16 “Jesus name’’ has healed this man and you know how lame he was before. ‘’Faith in ‘Jesus’ name’’ —‘’faith’’ given us from God—has caused this perfect healing.
Jesus name healed this man; Jesus is himself in his name and that is something I just discovered a short time ago; when we died on the cross with and in Jesus we died to the old life we used to live, and now we have arisen with and in him forever, and ‘’in him’’ we ‘’carry his name’’ as ‘’we carry him also’’ and he carries us in spirit Faith given us by God; in all things we receive everything from God there is no ‘’us’’ involved the only ‘us’ is in the name of Jes ‘us’. It is ‘in him’ that we have ‘everything’ for apart from him we have nothing. We do not heal anyone, it is the ‘’name of Jesus -’’Him,’’ that heals those already healed; they receive their healing that Jesus died for them; Jesus name has healed this man and so it is the same no matter where we go or what we do for God it is the name of Jesus that does its accomplished work through us but it is his name still, nothing to do with us. I just listened to a man preaching, and he said when you use the name of Jesus in healing you actually bring Jesus into the situation for he is in his name for his name is him, and he personally comes and heals. I want to share with you a thing that happened to me a while back. I was asked to do a short healing service with a group of people in a protestant church and for me being a former terrorist and Catholic; this was unbelievable in this country of ours. I prayed with all the people and Jesus healed them all. Then as I stood there ready to finish the Spirit directed me to a young girl in the group and I felt to call her up to get prayed with, she told me there was nothing wrong with her, but I insisted in her coming and she did. I began asking the Holy Spirit what is it he wanted me to do, and as the young girl was saying to me she was not sick The Spirit said, ‘’your sins are all forgiven,’’ and as I told her what God’s spirit said she burst out crying; you cannot hide anything from God. Then the Lord told me to ask her to stand, and he said put your arms around her neck. As I done so, I seen Jesus step outside of me, half in and half out, and I seen with eyes wide open A golden line running from his sleeve to his neck and after a few minutes, I felt to step back and take my arms from around her. I asked the young girl what did she feel, and she told me she felt my arms around her neck; then she felt another pair of arms around her and she knew it was Jesus.
Jesus is truly in his name as we also are in his name through our union and communion with him ‘’we have become a part of him’’ as scripture reassures
In the same way, you should ·see [count; consider] yourselves as being dead to ·the power of sin [sin] and alive ·with [to; with reference to] God ·through [or in; in union with] Christ Jesus. Union means to be an amalgamation, combination, blending, coming together, joining together,unification,andmerger.{Thisiswhathappenedtousatsalvation}

Romans 6:11 Expanded Bible
Colossians 2:6 Amplified Bible
Romans 6 -1-Living Bible (TLB)
Well then, shall we keep on sinning so that God can keep on showing us more and more kindness and forgiveness? 2 3 Of course not! Should we keep on sinning when we don’t have to? For sin’s power over us was broken when we became Christians and were baptized to become a ‘’part of Jesus ‘’Christ;’’ through his death the power of your sinful nature was shattered. 4 Your old sin loving nature was buried with him by baptism when he died; and when God the Father, with glorious power, brought him back to life again, ‘’you’’ ‘’were ‘given’ ‘’his’’ ‘’wonderful ‘’new life’’ to enjoy.’’
5 For you have become a ‘’part’’ ‘’of him’’, and so ‘’you ‘died’ with him’’, so to speak, when he died;] and now ‘’you ‘share’ ‘’his new life’’ and shall rise as he did. 6 Your old evil desires were nailed to the cross with him; that part of you that loves to sin was crushed and ‘’fatally wounded,’’ so that your sin loving body is no longer under sin’s control, no longer needs to be a slave to sin; 7 for when you are deadened to sin you are freed from all its allure and its power over you. 8 And since ‘’your old sin-loving nature “died” with Christ,’’ we know that ‘’you’’ will ‘’share ‘’his’’ new life.’’ Does the world believe that they have been called to share his {Jesus} new life? Do you ‘’believe’’ with all your heart and soul and spirit that you are
actually given a part of the life of Jesus? Do you believe that ‘’as he is ‘so are ‘’you’’ in this world?’’ 1-John 4-17 CEB bible
This is how love has been perfected in us, so that we can have confidence on the Judgment Day, because ‘’we are ‘exactly ‘the same as ‘God’ is ‘in this world.’ AMPC 1-John 4-17-AMPC In this [union and communion with Him] love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the Day of Judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him], ‘’because’ ‘’as He is,’’ ‘’so are we’’ ‘’in this world.’ Those two scriptures tell us that as he is, so are we, in this world, the first scripture in 1 John 4-17 says it exactly the way God meant it to be that we are exactly the same as God, is in this world. If you feel that this is two hard to contemplate then think of the word of God in Genesis1 26 Genesis 1-26 King James Version (KJV)
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Is it impossible for God to do this? Think of it another way we are part of Jesus in spirit remember, not the flesh. And Jesus is God in the trinity. And no matter what we think or feel this is truth, but when we apply it to ourselves that, ‘’I am a part of Jesus,’’ it somehow or other becomes almost impossible to believe; but it is up to us to chose to believe or not to believe; as for me I believe that this is so! Jesus is the head and we, ‘’all of us collectively’’ are his spiritual body; and there’s room for more on his body as each new ones arrive. At this moment in time I am growing a vine for grapes; I have never done this before as I thought that the vine only grows in the hot countries. But these vines have been adapted for our English/ Irish weather, and as I watch it grow I
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that crept upon the earth.
“Yes, I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in me and I in him shall produce a large crop of fruit. For apart from me you can’t do a thing. I am the vine; you are the branches, and shall produce a large crop of fruit, do you notice it says ‘’shall’’ produce a large crop of fruit, and he says the father is the vine dresser and crops of the dead leaves and those infected by insects or other pesticides, and the Father looks after us the good branches, so that we will produce those crops of souls for him. Do you believe that you shall produce a large crop of fruit/ souls, for him? The word here says ‘’shall’’ not ‘’might,’’ do you believe that you are in the ‘’shall’’ category? Colossians 1:28 TLB So everywhere we go we talk about Christ to all who will listen, warning them and teaching them as well as we know how. We want to be able to present each one to God, perfect because of what Christ has done for each of them.
John 15:5 Living Bible
This is how we get awesome fruit for God; everywhere we go we talk about Jesus Christ to everyone who will listen, and to those who hear our message and believe it they shall be saved and presented to the Father as a loyal son or daughter; because of what Jesus Christ who is living his new life in us has done.
am amazed to see how it attaches itself to the trellis I have around it, and I see that the vine is a very cleaver plant, as it wraps itself around the trellis it doesn’t just wrap itself around the trellis, it attaches itself around itself on the back of the wood, it does not depend on the wood to hold it up, it depends on using the wood as it wraps itself around itself to support the branches coming off of it. It’s amazing to see this happening, so now I understand why Jesus uses this scripture to teach the word of God.
Paul tells Timothy to hold tightly to the truth no matter what comes against him, and to guard well the gift of the Holy Spirit he received as a gift from the Holy Spirit to equip him to produce souls for the Father. Have you received the Holy Spirit? Are you baptised in him, do you operate in his gifts, do you believe
that you have almighty power because you have the same Holy Spirit that Jesus walked around the middle east with, and guard with the words we say. 2
He told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and earth. Therefore go and make disciples in all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and then teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you; and be sure of this that I am with you always, even to the end of the world.”
Matthew 28:18 20 TLB
Just chose to ‘’believe’’ the worlds ‘’sin’’ is unbelief in him, do not let ‘’unbelief’’ rule your life, if it written in his word then it’s true and so ‘’believe ‘’his word over the words of the enemy. ‘’Nothing is impossible with God!’’ Amen
Timothy 1:13 14 TLB Hold tightly to the pattern of truth I taught you, especially concerning the faith and love Christ Jesus offers you. Guard well the splendid, God given ability you received as a gift from the Holy Spirit who lives within you. Jesus told his disciples, and us his future disciples, to go out into the entire world and preach the gospel with signs and wonders following; as he promised he would be with us as we go about laying hands on the sick and healing them, and he will show that he is there ‘’with us, and in us,’’ as people are baptised in the Spirit and saved and delivered and healed, always! Do you believe that he will use you to work these miracles and signs through?
