The Carnal Mind Of Man:

"Satan want to control your mind to destroy it"




 Me, Myself, And I
 
"The mind has the seat of authority in the body, this is where everything starts and finish"

 Satan want your mind to control and destroy it.

Let me begin by saying, man was not created with a carnal mind neither would death had entered the earth if Adam would have obeyed God's command instead of agreeing with his wife. 

This happened when Eve listened to the serpent's lies and spoke them to Adam who did nothing, and because he didn't cast the devil out, the mind man was created with to love fear and obey God was lost to a carnal mind that's motivated, inspired, manipulated, and controlled by the devil.
Gen:1-31 And God saw everything he made, and behold, it was very good. However, the man he made listened to and obeyed the wrong voice. God set life and death before man and gave him the option to choose his own destiny, man chose death.
 
Gen;2,16-17
 And the Lord God commanded the man saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shall not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shall surely die.

Adam chose to become carnal when he didn't drive Satan out of the garden but agreed with his wife the deception Satan spoke to her having no fear toward God to obey him; this is where the carnal mind came from the fall of man. 
 
Even unto this day man's mind is carnal except he repents get baptized in the name of Jesus' and keep his Covenant The Ten Commandments; this is for every man to do if you desire to fellowship with the Father.

Rom:6-16   Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

If you allow that old man to rise up in you and follow after him, you become a servant of sin, why? the old man is subject to the dictates of the carnal mind that's controlled, motivated, and inspired by the devil which represents sin. Rom:8-6

Mk:4,1-20 

2And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

3Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

4And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

5And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

6But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

7And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

8And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

9And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

11And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

12That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

13And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

14The sower soweth the word.

15And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

16And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

17And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

18And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

19And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

20And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred. What ground are you standing on.

Matt:6-20-21,  But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.


1Corth:2-16 

Phil:2-5, let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus
 
Col:3-3
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

Prov:4,20-23
My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.

21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.

22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

Jer:29-11, 
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Look at God's mind set for the people of God
Phil:4,6-8 
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.
1Sam:8,4-7
 Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,
 5 And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.
 6 But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
7 And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the 
people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee,
but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them
Is:56,2-7
 v-2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, {remember, man is the species which include male and female} and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
 v-3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying, the Lord hath utterly separated me from his people. Neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
 v-4 For thus saith the Lord unto the eunuchs that keep my Sabbaths, and chose the things that please me and take hold of my covenant.
 v-5 Even unto them will I give in my house, and within my walls a place and a name better than of the sons and daughters, I will give them an everlasting name that shall not be cut off.
 v-6 Also the sons of the stranger that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him and to love the name of the Lord, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it and take hold of my covenant
 v-7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer, their burnt offerings, and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon my altar; for mine, house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.
Prov:18-10  The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
Ez:11-16  Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.
This is very necessary people for you to stay connected to God, He only except those that are in covenant with him. What is the covenant; The Ten Commandments {Ex:20,1-18 Deut;4-13} People say, the commandments are done away with. 
 
Once God gave Israel his law He never took it away, they are forever, Ps:111,7-8: in the new covenant he used a different method. He put his law in your heart and in your mind. 
{Jer:31,31-33} I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah not according to the covenant I made with their fathers. 
 
I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their minds and in their hearts and I will be their God and they shall be my people. Now I will show you how detrimental it is to live by your carnal mind.
Rom:8,6-8  
For to be carnally minded is death, (lake of fire) but to be spiritually minded is life and peace: with the Lord. Because the carnal mind is enmity {or hostel} against God: {it hate God} for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. (2Corth:5-16)

 Your carnal mind is empowered, motivated, and driven by Satan that you will not obey God's law except you hear his word and turn your heart toward him. 
 
Paul said, that I would do I did not, but that I would not I did, oh wretched man that I am Who shall deliver me from the body of this death. Rom:7,22-25

 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord Rom:8,12-13. When you live by your carnal mind and want to do good evil is ever-present knocking at the door of your heart seeking to enter in for you to obey its instructions.

 Here are some words Satan sow in your heart to cause issues that keep you in bondage when you live by your carnal mind.

 Gal:5,19-21
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

 This is not good, every day we press to do what is necessary to be in the first resurrection and die out to these things, so they won't hinder us from becoming God.

1Corth:15-31, Paul said, I die daily
 

8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,

9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

We must stand in faith, trusting the integrity of the word...Gal:5-1
Putting on the whole amour of God...Eph:6,10-11
Fighting the good fight of faith.1Tim:6-12, 
Knowing, the weapons of our warfare are not carnal ...1Cor:10-4,
Resist the devil with the word and he will flee. Ja:4-7.


Who is it that hates God!!!

 You that live by your carnal mind and refuse to keep God's covenant  law, the Ten Commandments.

 What is the covenant Deut:4-13, Ecc:12:13?
  
To know God, you must keep His commandments 1Jn:2,3-4
 
We all have family members that don't know God yet some claim they do however, we know the truth. Our job is to use wisdom, pray and give God thanks for bringing them in, and with faith and patience watch the word work.

1:Corth:9-26,27 
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway

Now we will show you what the Lord will do to those that hate him.

 Is:48-22 There is no peace, saith the Lord, to the wicked. Why?
Ps:7,11-13 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
Prov:28-4 They that forsake the law, praise the wicked...The wicked live after the flesh. There inspiration come from the carnal mind.

Rom:8,1-9
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.  {Christians that keep the law, the ten commandments.}
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.( Free from the death sentence imposed upon man by God; And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Heb;9-27).
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: {He knew no sin 1Peter2-22}
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. {Christians that keep God's law the Ten Commandments and walk-in righteousness}
5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. {1, according to your lust 2, according to the Word of God}
6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.  {To live after your flesh is eternal damnation in the fire,  to be spiritually minded is life with Jesus forever}if we endure to the end!!!
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity {or hostile} against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, {it hate God} neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. Why?  {They are rebellious and hate God}
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. {If the word of God is not in you, you are none of his.}

 The devil can't make you do anything, only with words will he approach your heart through strong persuasions and suggestions. His motive is for you to say his words, plant those seeds in your heart for you to do them and speak to others as Eve did to Adam. Now, those words of Satan sown in your heart have become issues in your life
God gave man the ability to make decisions, as Christians, we don't have to accept what the devil says. Here are some things we have the authority to do and drive him away.

Ja:4-7 Submit yourself unto God resist the devil and he will flee.
1Jn:4-4 Greater is he that is in me; use the powerful Name of Jesus
2Corth:10,4-6 Casting down every thought.... 
Lk:10-19 I have authority and power over all the power of the enemy. Don't let no man tell you: you have no power
 
To the wicked that hate God, here is your reword!!!
Deut:7,9-11

 9 Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face.
11 Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them.

 Is:66-15
15 For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.

 2Thes:1,7-8
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: do your love ones know God according to his word. 1Jn:2,3-4

 Jer:25, 29-33
31 A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord.
32 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
33 And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.

 Ps:110-1,5-6
1 The Lord said unto my Lord, sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
5 The Lord at thy right hand {is Jesus} shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.

 I have given you scripture why you hate God, simple, you refuse to keep his law and now it's time for you to make a decision to live forever with Jesus, or spend eternity in the lake of fire; your choice.

 Is:55,3, 6-7
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
6 Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon
