OF
THE LORD JESUS

- INTELLIGENCE, EMOTIONS, URGES & APPETITES, including more particularly OUR WILL
AS
OUR
GREATEST
SATISFACTION!!!
AS
OUR
GREATEST
SATISFACTION!!!
THE Individual OVERCOMER:
[Cv2:8] ~ “Ah, I hear HIM – my BELOVED! Here HE comes, leaping upon the mountains and bounding over the hills. [Cv2:9] ~ My BELOVED is like a gazelle or young deer. Look, there HE is behind the wall, now looking in at the windows. [Cv2:10] ~ My BELOVED said to me, ‘Rise up, MY love, MY fair one, and come away. [Cv2:11] ~ For the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. [Cv2:12] ~ The flowers are springing up and the time of the singing of birds has come. Yes, spring is here. [Cv2:13] ~ The leaves are coming out and the grapevines are in blossom. How delicious they smell! Arise, MY love, MY fair one, and come away. [Cv2:14] ~ MY dove is hiding behind some rocks, behind an outcrop of the cliff. Call to ME and let ME hear your lovely voice and see OUR handsome face. [Cv2:15] ~ The little foxes are ruining the vineyards. Catch them, for the grapes are all in bloom. [Cv2:16] ~ MY beloved is MINE and I am his. He is feeding among the lilies! [Cv2:17] ~ Before the dawn comes and the shadows flee away, come to ME, MY beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountain of spices.”
THE OVERCOMERS
that we are
that we are
- ought to progress as HIS lovers individually
- by our realizations in our personal lives
- of THE POWER for our overcoming
- barriers and difficulties
- not anymore by those miracles HE did
- before HE died and was buried;
but, OF HIS RESURRECTION
- as skillfully and gracefully
- as a young deer leaps and bounds
- over hills and mountains,
that JESUS
IS PICTURED HERE
for us by The Holy Spirit.
IS PICTURED HERE
for us by The Holy Spirit.
- HE is at the back of that wall
- that separates us from HIM
- (our SELF which we then have always preferred to fed &
- been proud feeding all these years and
- all-the-time gipatuyangan nato sa IYANG gusto!)
But HE sees
HIS point of entry
to our fallen state:
HIS point of entry
to our fallen state:
- in our UNDERSTANDING (>>Romans 12:1-2)
- through ACTUAL experiences
- with that SELF of ours {>>>T#032}
- and KNOWING with and in our spirit {>>>T#031}.
THE OVERCOMERS
that we are,
that we are,
are made distinct from
the rest of our fellow believers
- by our understanding and consequent living
- according to who we are in totality vis-à-vis GOD,
- our selves,
- and the people & happenings in the denominations around us!
Those who answer
THE CHRIST’s
THE CHRIST’s
call for OVERCOMERS
- are to join HIM
- into THE LIFE
- of continuing joyful experience
- strictly of HIS resurrected status
- and not of those HE did prior to HIS death!
INCLUDING BEING
JUDGED BY HIM now(!)
JUDGED BY HIM now(!)
(>>1st Peter 4:17)
- particularly in the matter of
- church LEADERS corrupting HIS CHURCH
- by THEIR behaviors and doctrines
- as recorded in >>Revelation 2:6, >>15!
No DENOMINATION
is teaching its members
is teaching its members
this truth:
- [and
not the historicalJESUS
- as we know HIM from HIS birth to HIS death]
- --- has to be in every believer like us now!
For our RELATIONSHIP
with HIM now(!) should be
with HIM now(!) should be
- in HIS WORD
- as expounded in,
- but not limited to ......
- >>> {T#018}, {T#019}, {T#020}, {T#021}, {T#022}, {T#023}, {T#024}, {T#025}, {T#026}, {T#027}, {T#029}, {T#030}, & {T#031} herein!
THE PROMISES
for OVERCOMERS
for OVERCOMERS
are nearing THEIR fulfillment
- in all sweetness and thrill of anticipation.
- Our own introspections
- --- the dictates of THE
cleverSELF in us
- (represented by the wily foxes)
have to cease and be stopped
- and have to give way to what specifically JESUS
- is telling each one of us
- as our CHIEF-PRIEST
- Otherwise, we are very sadly
- just continuing --- to destroy
- HIS vineyard!
- And harvest time is near!
THE TIME
TO ACCEPT
HIS JUDGMENTS
TO ACCEPT
HIS JUDGMENTS
(>>1st Peter 4:17)
- notwithstanding and more so
- because we are already in
- HIS household (>>Ephesians 2:19)
- and have to manifest ourselves
- that we are “IN HIM” and
- GETTING AWAY FROM
- THE FOCUS
- ON OUR
cleverSELVES
--- IS NOW(!)
our RESPONSIBILITY
our RESPONSIBILITY
- --- and accepting the verdict of HIS JUDGMENTS !!!!!
Truly, CHRISTIANITY
is not just being
- but THE LIFE starting with
- an actual encounter with THE RESURRECTED LORD JESUS
- as recorded for us to reckon with
- in the case of HIS companions before HIS death and resurrection,
- in the persons of Cleofas and his travelmate (>>Luke 24:13-48)
- and thereafter increasingly knowing HIM (>>>T#075).
How sadly mere
companionship
has deceived many and
indeed
how tragic mere
companionship
has been for many
to have been
TAUGHT
“accepting JESUS
companionship
has deceived many and
indeed
how tragic mere
companionship
has been for many
to have been
TAUGHT
“accepting JESUS
as their Lord and Savior”
and
“believe only” makes one
supposedly comfortably
A Christian immediately
and forever(!)
because allegedly
"once saved-always saved"
sila !!!!

THE Individual OVERCOMER:
[Cv3:1] ~ “One night my LOVER was missing from my bed. I got up to look for HIM but could not find HIM. [Cv3:2] ~ I went out into the streets of the city and the roads to seek HIM, but I searched in vain. [Cv3:3] ~ Those who keep watch over us stopped me but I said to them. “Have you seen HIM, anywhere, THE ONE I love very much? [Cv3:4] ~ It was only a little while afterwards that I found HIM and held HIM and would not let HIM go until I had brought HIM into my childhood home, into my mother’s old bedroom. [Cv3:5] ~ I earnestly implore YOU, O WOMEN of Jerusalem, by the gazelles and deer of the park, not to awake my LOVER. Let HIM sleep.”
WE have claimed of
satisfying
experiences with
THE CHRIST and seemed
to have contently slept for
some time with the
denominational doctrines
& practices
often gaining support in
our introspections.

- Out of the blue,
- we come to a realization something was wrong
- with our love relationship with HIM!
- We searched for answers any where,
- asked our
pastors/priests/ministers
what was wrong but
- they
offered no answer except
- By HIS grace though,
- we are to be into
- this real and live
WE LOVING -HIM –
HE -LOVING US
HE -LOVING US
RELATIONSHIP
- as we go out from our self
- --- from being soulish
- to being spiritual;
- that is,
being adept at acting
according to
the dictates of our intuition,
conscience and sense of
communion with GOD
according to
the dictates of our intuition,
conscience and sense of
communion with GOD
- instead of
listening invariably toourintelligence, emotions, urges and appetitesand outright exercising our will!
Only by our having served
distinction between and
among
distinction between and
among
- the components of our totality:
- our spirit, soul and body,
- (>>1st Thessalonians 5:23) and
- the precise difference between
our home since childhood
(OUR SOUL)

---- which we started to develop
from childhood ----

(ATO GYONG GUSTO ANG ATONG
PATUMANAN!)
that gave us initial
awareness of
the physical realm through

our body
AND
our mother’s old bedroom
in the innermost chamber of
our totality where
we were conceived

can they,
by THE LORD's DESIGN
