Quote:
Lastly, we are not to look inwardly, to any inward image. We are to look outward and upward to the LORD or to his written word. There is no spiritual guidance from any inward "image". The Holy Spirit is within the Christian but there is no scripture teaching us to look inward to the Holy Spirit. We are to pray to the Father in the name of Jesus Christ and then the Holy Spirit will lead us. And we are to walk in the Spirit but again there is no scripture telling us to look inward.


1 Corinthians 6:19
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;

Deuteronomy 10:16
Circumcise your hearts, therefore, and do not be stiff-necked any longer.

Deuteronomy 30:6
The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, so that you may love him with all your heart and with all your soul, and live.


Isaiah 63:11
Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?


Ezekiel 3:24
Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spake with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine house.

Quote:
Ezekiel 11:19
And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:


where is your new heart for your brother who is telling you the truth here, ,



Romans 8:23
And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.



John 14

23Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

24He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

25These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

26But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Ecclesiastes 3:18-20 (King James Versio
18 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.


19For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity.

20All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

it is what is living within this earthern clay the life that God breathed into man that is the 'God-part' within ourselves, '

we are each building blocks of the kingdom of God and it started here after Jesus resurrected , taking sin from mankind,


=================truer words were never spoken....... by such a wise critter,.........such as solomon ...

"a man who is living ,without God, living inside of his heart , is not living the life that God; has ordained for him. "

said his daughter. Jennywren

i have met some 'real beasts' on this internet...... also,.



Man is just as any of the other beasts, of creation... without God,
