The Second Death is the death of death.
Which is the lake of fire.
The nature of death is Adam, who must die.
Adam is already dead. The spirit of Adam is with the Lord in Heaven awaiting for his resurrection.
The carnal mind is death - Rom 8:6
That is what running the race is all about; living by faith in Jesus Christ to help us abide in him & His words to bear fruit so that our joy may be full.

Those who sow to the works of the flesh shall reap corruption and the wages of sin is therefore physical death.

Galatians 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. 8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

This is why saved believers need to look to Jesus Christ for help daily to cast down wicked imaginations and to think on good things.

Hebrews 12:1Wherefore 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.

James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. 13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. 15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. 16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.

Romans 13:13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. 14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

1 Corinthians 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

Hebrews 2:18 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

2 Corinthians 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

May I ask a serious question, that is; are you teaching the word of GOD right here and been commission to do so by HIM with HIS personal “Authority” or have you taken this Initiative Upon yourself to do so and is it with “fear”?

How can I prove that to you when it is on God to cause the increase? Only God can prove that to you.

I have no fear when I am trusting Jesus Christ for everything. I do fear Him so as to not sin against Him but by my reverential fear, I trust Him as my Good Shepherd & Friend to help me to follow Him and He is doing a good job.

Is that called Avoidance when you avoid a major part of a question and when Veering away from a direct question is that called redirecting a question to something that was not ask.

Your grade is “F”, do you want to do a “Make up”?

That is a yes or no, question, and not to be Elaborate on

I just not into “Tap Dancing” today around questions.
That’s all.

Can you answer the question put to me and prove it when you need 2 or 3 other witnesses to confirm it as true as one sent from God?

2 Corinthians 13:1This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

John 5:31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.


John 7:
17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. 18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

Therefore you and I have to decrease when God is using us in His ministry.

John 3:28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. 29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.

1 Corinthians 3:5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? 6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

If a member came in here proclaiming himself or herself as the latter day prophet, as sent by God, guess where the spotlight is on? The member in seeking the glory of being the latter day prophet sent by God; thus not the Lord Jesus Christ.

So there is no tap dancing around the question when the question is moot when it comes to His ministry in being a true witness by His words.
