NEW CREATURE

June 28th, 2021


13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by Whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
” Galatians 6:13-15


It is the NEW CREATURE, the creature created by the power of the Holy Spirit upon faith in the Cross of Christ that will availeth much in the Kingdom of God. The NEW CREATURE who walks in the Spirit and not after the lusts of the flesh that will have fruit unto God.


This new creature is not a product of rehabilitation but is a regenerated man. It is the Born Again experience, being born of the Spirit, that gives us the ability to live unto God. The regenerated man is given a Divine Nature as the Holy Spirit dwells in our hearts and draws us closer to Jesus. Old things pass away and all things become new for this new creature birthed in us by the Holy Spirit. Our faith in the Cross of Christ gives the Holy Spirit this latitude to perform HIS ministry in our heart.


Circumcision or uncircumcision avails us nothing. Nothing. Religious ceremonies are laid waste in every respect when the power of God raises up a new creature in what the world would throw away.


1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
2 For the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the Law of Sin and Death.
” Romans 8:1-2


There is but one way to be free from the power of the Law of Sin and Death and it is to purposefully place our faith IN the Cross of Christ for all that we need and walk in the liberty Christ has afforded us. Only the New Creature can do this. Only the New Creature can partake in this Divine Nature…not the rehabilitated creature. It is the power of the Cross that gives the Holy Spirit the legal means to perform His mighty work in our heart and that is why we MUST fight that fight of faith DAILY. Faith in Jesus Christ and Him crucified, be determined to know nothing else.

SLAVES TO SUPERSTITION

June 22, 2021


Many in the modern church are slaves to superstition and bound by white witchcraft. Just as black magic attempts to manipulate and maneuver the evil spirit world, white magic attempts to manipulate the righteous spirit world. In many ways white magic is much more dangerous than black magic because it is cloaked in Scripture and therefore easily deceives the Believer.
This white magic and superstition teaches that just about everything is cursed and can therefore bring curses upon the Believer if allowed. Not so. In the New Testament there are THREE ways a Christian can be cursed:
1. A Christian can be cursed by not honoring their Father and their Mother (Matthew 15:4).

2. Reverting back to Law (Galatians 3:9-10)

3. Believing another gospel and another Jesus (Galatians 1:8-9)


Sadly, this white witchcraft running rampant in the church today is another gospel promoting another Jesus. That very thing which it is attempting to do, break curses, is in fact bringing the Believer under a curse. Never mind the fact that they are also bringing themselves under law as well because if you don’t obey these incantations to the letter, then the curse will not be broken.


These incantations by Believers to breaks spells and curses moves their faith from the Cross of Christ and to their “good works”.


“21 Not every one that says unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he that does the Will of My Father which is in Heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your Name? and in Your Name have cast out devils? and in Your Name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.”
Matthew 7:21-23


Friend, prophesying in the Name of Jesus, casting out devils in the Name of Jesus and doing many wonderful works in the Name of Jesus is not the requirement to make Heaven your eternal home. The Name of Jesus Christ is not a magic charm to be used against the Will of God.
White witchcraft is a word of faith doctrine used to entertain one’s personal will and not the Will of God. WE do not have power over the spirit world. God alone demands the spirits both righteous and wicked. We have authority in the Name of Jesus. The Name of Jesus is a strong tower to us who believe upon Him. When we invoke His Name according to HIS WILL and not our own, JESUS demands the angels…not us. The devil and every demon in hell is on a leash. They are instruments used by the Lord. The only fight we are called to fight is faith in Jesus Christ and Him crucified and HE will do the rest. The Armor of God is GOD’s Armor. The hedge of protection is GOD’s hedge. We believe upon the Lord Jesus Christ, Who He is and what He has done, and we STAND…stand in the power of God. Stand and see His Salvation.


The eyes of the Lord search the earth to and fro for those whose hearts are perfect toward Him not those who worship with their lips but their hearts are far from Him…those He does not know.


10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.
11 Put on the whole Armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”
Ephesians 6:10-11


Believe God. The Cross of Christ Jesus is sufficient.

CULTIVATED CHRISTIANITY

The only way for self to be handled is at the Cross of Christ. There, self is humbled and broken. Until our faith is no longer in our own ability to overcome that which hinders us and we totally, completely and purposefully place our faith in Who Jesus Christ is and what He did at Calvary to both pay the penalty of sin for the believing sinner AND break the power of sin for the believing Saint, we are unable to follow Jesus.

Try as we might, we can not cultivate the Fruit of the Spirit via self help methods. 40 days of purpose will not bridge the gap between natural man and spiritual man. NOTHING…and I do mean NOTHING we can do other than faith in the Cross of Christ will give the Holy Spirit latitude to do what only HE can do…develop in us His Fruit unto God; perform in us a circumcision of our heart that is made without hands; remove in us those things that are not pleasing to God and create in us a new creature.

This is the moving of the Holy Spirit in our heart that occurs as we look unto Jesus Christ and He draws us nearer and nearer to Him. Old things do pass away and all things become new. Bondages are broken when we look to Christ. The lame walk when we look to Jesus. Blind eyes are open when we look to Jesus. Signs and miracles follow those who believe…they chase us down and overtake us so that we may be a witness to a lost and dying world.

23 And He said to them all, If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me

24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for My sake, the same shall save it.

25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?” Luke 9:23 – 25

Until we learn to deny our self ability to control or manipulate the problem at hand and trust in the Finished Work of Christ Jesus to supply our every need according to His riches in glory, we will never know the power of God. Natural man cannot cultivate the power of God through vain philosophies being taught as Scriptural doctrine. It is faith the Cross of Christ and that faith alone that gives the Holy Spirit latitude to do a mighty work in our lives. The Cross of Christ IS the power of God to us who believe and to others it is foolishness. Prayerfully consider how you receive the preaching of the Cross. Are you perishing? Look to Jesus. Return to your First Love. He stands at the door knocking.

“For the preaching of the Cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are Saved it is the power of God.” 1 Corinthians 1:18

-Donna Clark Warren

MORAL EVOLUTION

There is a great gap between that of the spiritual man and the natural man. When the believing sinner accepts Christ Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, we are Born Again; Baptized into His Death and made a new creation in Christ Jesus (Romans 6:3-5). We are not regenerated but recreated.

Man has forever tried to bridge the gap between the spiritual man and the natural man but continues to fall short because moral evolution is a lie. There is however a moral decline that occurs as the conscience of the natural man is seared and their heart is hardened by the sin nature which reigns in the heart of the unregenerate.

Yes, even the greatest of men and women who have made it to the top of the ladder in the worlds of psychology and good works are still morally deprived. Their faith is in their intellect as the gap between natural man and spiritual man grows wider and not closer. They become reprobate. In all of their knowledge they do not understand that we who believe upon the Lord Jesus Christ are HIS workmanship and not our own. Being determined to know nothing else except Jesus Christ and Him crucified, we have denied ourselves. The fight of faith is a daily fight – not for Salvation but for Sanctification to walk daily in HIS Will and HIS Ways and not our own. His Way are higher than ours and we do not always understand but we trust.

Why? Because we know in Whom we have believed and have reckoned Him fully capable to keep us unto the day. His Cross was and is and will forever be sufficient to supply all of our needs according to His riches in Glory.

This is not a lingo we learn but a Rock on which we stand. It is the revelation of Who Jesus is and what He did for whosoever wills (wants) to believe. This is the new creation Christ Jesus created. Psychology may have tried to rehabilitate but it fail short….as it always will. It is only IN Christ Jesus that the Spirit of Life frees us from the Law of Sin and Death (Romans 8:2).

We are HIS workmanship; not our own. Trust Him and believe.

8 For by Grace are ye Saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:8-10

NARROW IS THE WAY

There are more lost to self-righteousness than to vice.

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto life, and few there be that find it.” Matthew 7:14

That wide path is full of the self righteous who perform many wonderful works in the Name of the Lord but He knows them not.

“21 Not every one that says unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he that does the will of My Father which is in Heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your Name? and in Your Name have cast out devils? and in Your Name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity.
” Matthew 7:21-23

It is high time the church stops playing church, confess our own guilt and plead the Person and Work of Christ Jesus as the Sacrificial Lamb of God for forgiveness and deliverance from this pilgrim land. He stands at the door knocking. Those who have ears to hear, let them hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying unto the churches. Return to your first Love…be determined to know nothing else among you save Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

JUDGE THE FRUIT

A liar lies because they are a liar. They are not a liar because they lie.

A sinner sins because they are a sinner. They are not a sinner because they sin.

You will know them by their fruit. It is their fruit (ie. the lie, the sin, the bondage, etc.) that bears witness as to what they are.

A false teacher will bear the fruit of Believers who are bound by sin. These Believers are indeed sincere and zealous for the Lord but yet they remain bound. Their bondage may be a religious bondage that is the hardest for them to see. Seeing, they see not and neither do they hear, nor understand. I know this because I was at one time among them myself.

Other bondages may be oppression. Think of the Israelites in Egypt who were slaves to the Egyptians. Sadly, too many Believers are slaves to the world. The world’s ways and precepts have them bound in the miry muck. Their intellect and talents have led them astray and they are being tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine as they grasp to keep their heads above water.

No matter the case, the sin that has so easily beset them is the object of their faith has been moved from the Cross of Christ to another method…a seemingly biblical method but in reality it is a doctrine of man.

There is freedom from bondage at the Cross of Christ…no matter the circumstance. There is peace beyond all understanding because you know that you know that you know that you are just passing through this pilgrim land. You know in Whom you have believed and are fully persuaded that HE and HE alone is able to keep that of which you have committed unto Him.
Jesus Christ came to die on Calvary’s Cross to pay the penalty of sin for the believing sinner AND break the power of sin for the believing Saint…all we must do is choose this day to BELIEVE; to BELIEVE that His Grace is sufficient.

Jesus Christ alone can heal the sin sick heart. That sin sick heart may not drink, smoke, fornicate or do any other of the fleshly sins that we all recognize but it still may be so buried in the muck of sin and under the dominion of the sin nature of which we are all born with, that they are as the Egyptian slaves bound by Egypt.

“15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.”
Matthew 7:15-20

Judge the fruit. Judge the fruit righteously. Take the mote out of your own eye and judge your own fruit and then come out from among them and be ye separate.

GRAVEN IMAGES

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto life, and few there be that find it.
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.
” Matthew 7:14-20

Any doctrine in the modern church which is not squarely based on Jesus Christ as the Source and His Cross as the means by which we receive from God is idolatry. The idols of today are not made of silver and bronze but of denominationalism, methods of man and/or false doctrines that sweep the people to and fro. These Believer’s never know the power of God but begin perishing as soon as they turn to these wicked ways.

For the preaching of the Cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are Saved it is the Power of God.” 1 Corinthians 1:18

The other Jesus brought about by another spirit which produces another gospel corrupts the Truth of Jesus Christ and Him crucified in the Believer’s heart and makes the Cross of Christ of no effect. Evil fruit is produced…fruit unto death because they are perishing under the weight of false doctrine. If this wasn’t so, the Word of God would not warn us over and over of false doctrine.

Promise Keepers, The Government of Twelve, Word of Faith and the Seeker Sensitive churches have turned the modern church away from God. They are in need of nothing.
You will know them by their fruit. It is dead or dying. Perishing under the weight of the false doctrine they have believed. Seeing, they see not. Hearing, they hear not and neither do they believe. The delusion is real and God has allowed because they did not receive the love of the Truth.

And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the Truth, that they might be Saved.” 2 Thessalonians 2:10

The Lord is standing at the door knocking. He is not among the false preachers but He stands at the door calling His Children out from among them to sup with them and them with Him. Those who have ears to hear what the Spirit of the Lord is saying to the churches, let us hear. Do not equate these idols with the Cross of Christ.

Jesus Christ and Him crucified…be determined to know nothing else among you.

LOVE NOT THE WORLD

15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the Will of God abides for ever.
18 Little children, it is the last time: and as you have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.”
1 John 2:15-18

Fellowship with the world is one of the greatest dangers for the Child of God. The allurements of the world never change but steadily attempt to seduce the flesh into unrighteousness. Our members war against the law in our mind making us a slave unto sin (Romans 7:23-24)…the sin; our sin nature which we were all born with due to the Fall of Adam.

This sin nature ruled our hearts and lives before our Salvation but when we were Saved (assuming and praying those who read this are Saved), the Holy Spirit came into our heart and dethroned the sin nature. It is isolated by the power of the Holy Spirit as long as we continue looking unto Jesus Christ as the Source and His Cross the means by which the power of sin is broken.

As we fellowship with the world, our sin nature is quickened. Being baptized into Jesus’ Death at Salvation (Romans 6:3-5), we are dead to the man made laws to obtain righteousness and alive unto God through Jesus Christ our King. The unsaved are unable to live unto God. They are ruled by their sin nature which will not allow such. Only when the sinner wills to believe; when we choose to believe, does the Holy Spirit come and pierce asunder the heart and utterly bind those powers of darkness that try to hinder the sinner from believing.

A new creature in Christ Jesus, our sin nature remains isolated by the power of the Holy Spirit alone. It’s not by might, not by power but by the Holy Spirit alone is the sin nature isolated. Our self will, talents, intellect, abilities, etc. cannot isolate our sin nature. If such were so, the Cross of Christ was in vain. God forbid no! The Grace of God either expels unrighteousness by the power of the Holy Spirit under the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus as we look unto the Cross of Christ or the Law of Sin and Death keeps us under the dominion of sin. The choice is ours. Do we believe the Cross of Christ is sufficient for all that we need according to His riches in glory? Or do we tend to the ways of the world to gain a form of righteousness…self righteousness which ultimately leads to spiritual death of the Believer.

The spirit of the antichrist is alive and well in this world. Many come in the form of preachers of righteousness. Their words are sweet but swelling. They leaven the lump…the whole lump. Another means and another method are given to break the power of sin other than Jesus Christ and Him crucified. It is the methods of the world being taught as Biblical doctrine. Another Jesus and another gospel presented to the church for victorious Christian living and they are all given by those who claim to be preachers of righteousness.

You will know them by their fruit.

16 You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.
” Matthew 7:16-20

If you have ears to hear, come out from among them and be ye separate. What fellowship does righteousness have with unrighteousness? Our sin nature remains isolated only as we look unto the Cross of Christ. Look to Calvary and be set free from the bondage of sin. He who the Son sets free is free indeed. There is a cloud of witnesses to testify unto the Glory of the Lord. What He has done for me, He will do for you. We’re just passing through this pilgrim land and the only thing we can take us are souls. Don’t you want to go?

-Donna Clark Warren

UNEQUALLY YOKED

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the House of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the Gospel of God?” 1 Peter 4:17

On October 31st, 2020 professing Christians all over the USA will celebrate Halloween. These celebrations will occur a mere 3 days before the most important Presidential election in the history of the United States of America. Many of these same Christians are the very ones calling on those who are called by the Name of the Lord to humble ourselves, turn from our wicked ways and the Lord will heal our land

I have a question for those Christians who are doing this. Please define wickedness? How do you celebrate Halloween one day and ask the Lord to heal our land the next?

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion has light with darkness?
15 And what concord has Christ with Belial? or what part has he that believes with an infidel?
16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? for you are the temple of the Living God; as God has said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, says the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.”
1 Thessalonians 5:14-17

You either believe the Word of God to be true or you believe it to be a lie. Personal feelings regarding such things do not usurp what the Bible says. What you believe is between you and God, not you and me. As for me and my house, we choose Jesus. He dwells with me and walks with me. He is my God and I am His people. Yes, me…this imperfect vessel He chose to call by His Name because I chose to believe upon Him…upon Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
As for me, Jesus is the Source and His Cross the means by which I receive from the Lord and I fight daily the good fight of faith in the Cross of Christ. My flesh tries to hinder but I am persuaded that Jesus Christ can keep all that I have committed unto Him.

Personally, I don’t want any fellowship with darkness. The Lord delivered me from a word of faith church and He told me long ago that He got me out of there one time and if I went back I would be greatly deceived….and He would allow it. Some may call me “religious” but they don’t know what the Lord has brought me from. His praise will always be on my lips. He is the Lord Who Saves. He is the Lord Who delivers if we will only turn from our wicked ways according to what HE declares as wicked, not us.

Repent. The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Turn from your wicked ways. Humble yourselves before the Lord and He will heal our land. Stop playing church and be the church.

-Donna Clark Warren

INTELLECTUALISM

INTELLECTUALISM – devotion to the exercise of intellect or to intellectual pursuits.

There are many professing Christians who have a head knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and Him crucified and agree. For many years (most of my adult life), if you asked me if I was a Christian I would adamantly say “YES”. The truth of the matter though was that I was no more a Christian than a tomato plant sitting in the garage is a car. I knew the Gospel but had not accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord. I remind you, the devil knows the Gospel of Jesus Christ and Him crucified. One thing about my story is that I wasn’t in church. My profession of Christianity was lip service to those who inquired and it soothed my conscience so I wouldn’t have to think about the consequences of eternal hell.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a man be Born Again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.” John 3:3

Sadly, there are many sitting in the church house today who have the same profession except they are sitting on the pews every Sunday. They know the theology of their certain denomination and what it teaches however they do not know the Lord Jesus Christ and neither does He know them.

21 Not every one that says unto Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he that does the Will of My Father which is in Heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your Name? and in Your Name have cast out devils? and in Your Name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.
” Matthew 7:21-23

They have departed from the faith and followed doctrines of demons. Their’s is another Jesus and another gospel. Vain philosophies have been taught as biblical doctrine and they have believed a lie. They have no oil in their lamps. Their eternal Salvation by faith in the Finished Work of Christ Jesus has morphed into dead works by faith in their many wonderful works. Their intellectualism has them deceived and they are bound for a devil’s hell unless they turn from their wicked ways.

Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ? Do you know Who He is? (The only begotten Son of God.) Do you know what He has done? (God manifested in the flesh to become the Sacrificial Lamb of God to pay the penalty of sin and break the power of sin for whosoever will believe.). Have you been Born Again?

God knows the answers to these questions and so do you. No matter the case, He stands at the door knocking wanting to have a personal relationship with you. Don’t let anyone tell you that you must be water baptized to be Saved. This is simply not so. There is nothing you must do to be Born Again except simply believe upon Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and ask Him to come into your heart.

When the believing sinner wills (wants) to believe upon the Lord Jesus there is no devil in hell that can stop his ability to believe. The power of God can pierce asunder the heart of man and open the door for our free will to believe.

23 Jesus said unto him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believe.
24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help You my unbelief.
” Mark 9:23-24

If you will to believe upon the Lord Jesus Christ, don’t be ashamed to cry out unto the Lord for Him to help your unbelief. It’s your will to believe upon the Cross of Christ for Salvation and victory over sin that opens the door for faith to arise.

It is so much harder for those who have been indoctrinated with religious philosophies to simply believe. The Gospel of Jesus Christ and Him crucified has been made of no affect because of their many wonderful works in the Name of Jesus. However, nothing is impossible with the Lord when we humble ourselves and cry out to Jesus to help our unbelief.
