1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.720
We are nearly there. I'm going to hit record here to the cloud.

2
00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:18.720
Okay, it looks like we're, looks like we're live. So all you Dr. Robin, I'll hand it over to you.

3
00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:22.880
Okay, hello again everyone.

4
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:30.160
So technology, are we live here?

5
00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:42.800
Hello, I don't, not quite seeing, so apologies here people, just not sure if I'm actually on

6
00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:50.320
screen here yet. Yes, I see you on the Facebook channel, so you're, you're looking good.

7
00:00:51.360 --> 00:00:57.360
We're going. Okay, hi everyone. Dear me, sincere apologies. Technology,

8
00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:02.640
when it's, so we're speaking God owns the airways. So, so just speak stability over this,

9
00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:08.000
this channel and stability over this recording as, as we go to send this out. So there's a,

10
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:12.720
an important message here, I think for everyone. So I'll start from the beginning again,

11
00:01:12.720 --> 00:01:17.360
as we did yesterday. And thank you for your patience. You're, we're nearly 20 minutes behind.

12
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:25.920
So this is my second presentation, myself. And what, what I'm talking on today is the concept

13
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:34.240
of the triune God, triune man. So God said that he made us in our image. He didn't say his image,

14
00:01:34.240 --> 00:01:39.840
he said our image. So God, Father, God, Son, God, Holy Spirit, the three in one.

15
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:44.400
And it's not like they're actually three separate beings, they can operate as separate beings,

16
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:50.240
but they are in one. And there's this beautiful dance, as we're God, the Father, God, the Son,

17
00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:53.760
God, the Holy Spirit, God altogether, God separate, it's, it's a beautiful dance.

18
00:01:54.320 --> 00:02:02.880
And so God made us in that image, the triune image. And so we are triune, we are body,

19
00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:11.760
soul, spirit, sort of separate, but simultaneous, interwoven, but you can separate it out if you

20
00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:16.560
need to just sort of look at things. So that's how God made us, that's who God made us to be.

21
00:02:17.920 --> 00:02:22.000
So I will shortly share slides so you can see what I'm what I'm talking about.

22
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:27.920
First time I spoke about the disconnect, how God made us and put us in the garden.

23
00:02:32.880 --> 00:02:38.400
We lost garden, chose to eat from the tree of knowledge, man making ourselves God, that what

24
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:42.800
we knew was better. And so we lost that connection with God. The first thing we lost was connection

25
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:47.200
with God. And then we lost the connection with creation. And you see, track through the ages

26
00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:55.840
of progressive disconnect, and how more and more things became disconnected. And the more we

27
00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:00.960
disconnected, the more we moved into a place of chronic ill health and disease such that the

28
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:07.760
world has not not seen before. And that's where we are now. So we look to how do we restore that.

29
00:03:07.760 --> 00:03:13.920
So coming down to the personal coming down to the share to sorry to the the ourselves the body,

30
00:03:13.920 --> 00:03:20.960
soul, spirit. So I'll jump into this and hopefully this is going to open up for us. So So here we are.

31
00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:30.800
So it doesn't want to move forward. There we go. Father, Son, Holy Spirit made in our image. And

32
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:37.680
so here it is separated out for us, body, soul, spirit. And you can also you can almost imagine

33
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:43.040
an interface between each one of those because particular things happen on those, those interfaces,

34
00:03:43.040 --> 00:03:53.200
but really, it's together all the time. It's this interwoven thing. Oh, we have these things called

35
00:03:53.200 --> 00:04:00.800
neuro peptides, neurologically acting protein particles. So neuro peptides were first really

36
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:04.720
discovered by a clever scientist by the name of Candice Perden a number of years ago.

37
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:10.400
And she wrote a brilliant book, the molecules of emotions, I'm going to talk a little more about

38
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:15.840
that further on. So there's this connection between the body and the soul via neuro peptides.

39
00:04:16.640 --> 00:04:21.200
But there's another connection between the soul and the spirit. And that happens in the energetic

40
00:04:21.200 --> 00:04:28.080
field, we are energy beings, we are vibrational beings, we operate on particular frequencies,

41
00:04:28.080 --> 00:04:33.520
which can be measured, there's real science behind that. It's not just the realm of, of the crazies.

42
00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:41.040
So so what's the bioenergetics direct is, because really, there's quite a lot in all of this,

43
00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:44.720
I'm not going to unpack all of that today, this is something that will come, you know,

44
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:50.400
in the course later on. But this is just an overview. So as I said, we are electrical,

45
00:04:50.400 --> 00:04:56.240
every time we think it's an electrical impulse, every movement we make, it's an electrical

46
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:59.920
impulse. And we operate on particular frequencies, the earth

47
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.760
as a whole operates around what we call the Schumann frequency.

48
00:05:04.400 --> 00:05:07.360
Our thoughts have particular different frequencies.

49
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:09.640
And depending on what state the brain is,

50
00:05:09.880 --> 00:05:13.400
these range from about four hertz up to about 20 hertz.

51
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:17.800
Our heart, of course, has a frequency that the heartbeat

52
00:05:18.400 --> 00:05:22.640
is initiated by an electrical trigger in what's called the sinoatrial node.

53
00:05:23.440 --> 00:05:25.960
And there's a synchronicity that needs to occur

54
00:05:25.960 --> 00:05:29.120
when we're in good health between the heart and the brain.

55
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:33.800
And underneath all that is the concept of of the quantum mechanics

56
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:36.600
and the energetics in quantum mechanics.

57
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:40.320
So there's this energy spirit interface, and that can be disrupted

58
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:44.080
very much and affected by all the psychoactive medications.

59
00:05:44.080 --> 00:05:46.360
And again, I'll talk a lot more about that. Another.

60
00:05:55.840 --> 00:05:58.480
Spirit, it's not spirit or force in us.

61
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:00.840
God breathed his spirit into us.

62
00:06:00.840 --> 00:06:03.480
He made us out of dust, breathed his spirit into us.

63
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:07.600
And that life force is carried through our body with each breath

64
00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:11.000
that we take, that life force is carried through the body.

65
00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:17.240
You never I'm not sure how many have have been with someone

66
00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:21.440
when they died, but they always take a breath out.

67
00:06:21.440 --> 00:06:23.040
They always exhale.

68
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:25.560
And the spirit, as it were, lives on that breath.

69
00:06:26.400 --> 00:06:28.800
So body, soul, spirit.

70
00:06:29.200 --> 00:06:33.840
And that arrow is representing that life force of the spirit

71
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:37.680
flowing through the body, bringing life into the body.

72
00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:40.720
So back to the body.

73
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.760
The word says we are a temple and what is a temple

74
00:06:44.400 --> 00:06:48.520
and God, Jesus, Holy Spirit literally resides in that temple.

75
00:06:48.520 --> 00:06:50.480
That's the whole thing about the Feast of Tabernacles.

76
00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:53.960
God tabernacled in us.

77
00:06:53.960 --> 00:06:56.280
Not just God tabernacled in the temple.

78
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:00.080
God tabernacled with us.

79
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:03.520
God tabernacled in us.

80
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:06.360
So our body is a temple, a holy place.

81
00:07:06.640 --> 00:07:08.200
Our body is a temple.

82
00:07:08.200 --> 00:07:10.600
And the word also speaks about it as as being clothing.

83
00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:13.560
Paul talks about when we wrap up, fold up this body like a tent.

84
00:07:14.320 --> 00:07:18.280
Talks about putting on the immortal like like a piece of clothing

85
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:20.160
that we put on.

86
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:24.280
So the body is clothing us.

87
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:28.000
And the body is also a reflection of the earth.

88
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:30.800
It's it's you could regard it as a microcosm of the earth.

89
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.520
So the earth, two thirds of the earth is covered in saltwater.

90
00:07:34.280 --> 00:07:36.360
So we are actually two thirds water.

91
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:38.920
We're not actually solid like we think we are.

92
00:07:39.760 --> 00:07:42.200
We are actually a bag of saltwater.

93
00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:47.640
And in that bag of saltwater, we have these suspended minerals

94
00:07:47.640 --> 00:07:50.480
and they move about and they do things being operated on

95
00:07:50.640 --> 00:07:53.800
by our bodies, natural chemicals and electrical signaling.

96
00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:58.240
But we are minerals suspended in a bag of water.

97
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:01.520
So what about a temple?

98
00:08:01.520 --> 00:08:03.920
So, you know, we've got a lot of temples.

99
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:06.800
We've got a lot of ancient temples, haven't we, around the place.

100
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:10.320
But when you look at them, you can see why you see the hints

101
00:08:10.320 --> 00:08:12.560
of the previous grandeur that was there.

102
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.160
They've lost that grandeur.

103
00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:24.520
So. That

104
00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:29.120
gives us some clues.

105
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:32.320
Where is our architects?

106
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.760
So the DNA, our genetic blueprint that God made,

107
00:08:34.760 --> 00:08:37.159
and that's his original plan for us.

108
00:08:37.880 --> 00:08:41.840
So for that plan, that architect's plan to get converted to a temple,

109
00:08:42.400 --> 00:08:48.080
a structure of a beauty worthy for people to come and worship at.

110
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:53.440
It needs quality materials,

111
00:08:54.160 --> 00:08:56.640
no matter how good that architect in a temple is,

112
00:08:56.640 --> 00:08:59.000
not the beautiful structure that was originally envisaged.

113
00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:01.640
So we need quality materials.

114
00:09:01.640 --> 00:09:04.040
What are those quality materials for us?

115
00:09:04.040 --> 00:09:07.920
Quality foods, real foods, food that God made,

116
00:09:08.280 --> 00:09:10.880
foods that are part of his creation, that are organic,

117
00:09:10.880 --> 00:09:13.680
wherever possible, or freshly picked, freshly harvested.

118
00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:17.280
So quality materials.

119
00:09:17.280 --> 00:09:18.640
And then you need a site foreman.

120
00:09:18.640 --> 00:09:21.160
You need a someone who is going to be telling,

121
00:09:21.680 --> 00:09:28.880
directing where and how those materials get put together.

122
00:09:29.680 --> 00:09:31.880
Who reads them, instructs others how to do that.

123
00:09:32.280 --> 00:09:34.400
So that's our brain. That's our nervous system.

124
00:09:34.680 --> 00:09:39.520
So this is this is what's overseeing everything and directing everything.

125
00:09:39.520 --> 00:09:41.640
The brain and our nervous system.

126
00:09:42.520 --> 00:09:46.040
Then you'll have the messengers that will take those those messages

127
00:09:46.040 --> 00:09:48.560
from the site foreman down to laborers around the place.

128
00:09:49.920 --> 00:09:53.960
And those messengers will be in our case,

129
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:56.080
we have a lot of messaging systems.

130
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:58.280
We have a lot of different messaging systems.

131
00:09:58.280 --> 00:09:59.960
So, yes, the nervous system.

132
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:06.400
Yes, hormones are another key, one of the messengers, and interestingly, foods actually

133
00:10:06.400 --> 00:10:12.140
will act as messengers and signals into our body also.

134
00:10:12.140 --> 00:10:16.480
And then you have the labourers, the ones who are actually going to do things.

135
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:22.360
And so these can be your background cells, can be regarded as labourers that move about

136
00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:26.160
and do the things according to the architect's plan.

137
00:10:26.160 --> 00:10:29.880
There are quite a few other groups of labourers in our body.

138
00:10:29.880 --> 00:10:33.460
So say that makes the original temple.

139
00:10:33.460 --> 00:10:38.220
But after it's made, if all you do is make it and leave it, if you originally put it

140
00:10:38.220 --> 00:10:46.020
together and say, an example for us, say the mum has had perfect nutrition through pregnancy,

141
00:10:46.020 --> 00:10:50.740
baby is born, beautiful, perfect baby, everything is beautiful.

142
00:10:50.740 --> 00:11:00.560
But then after that, the child isn't properly fed, things go wrong.

143
00:11:00.560 --> 00:11:01.560
We die in childhood.

144
00:11:01.560 --> 00:11:05.820
But then as you come into your teen years or 20s, you think it doesn't matter, food,

145
00:11:05.820 --> 00:11:09.740
it just I'll live how I want to live, do what I want to do.

146
00:11:09.740 --> 00:11:14.340
Or we come to our old years, and again, we get lazy, and it's too much trouble, we'll

147
00:11:14.340 --> 00:11:17.220
just do tea and toast.

148
00:11:17.220 --> 00:11:20.380
We're not maintaining the temple.

149
00:11:21.020 --> 00:11:27.020
And what happens is over time, it deteriorates, might not happen immediately, it might take

150
00:11:27.020 --> 00:11:33.460
a few years, it might take many years, but it will deteriorate if it's not well maintained.

151
00:11:33.460 --> 00:11:37.740
And the maintenance needs to be to the same level of quality as the original temple.

152
00:11:37.740 --> 00:11:42.180
Otherwise, we're no longer fulfilling that architect's design.

153
00:11:42.180 --> 00:11:48.580
So our bodies are a temple worthy of God to be able to reside in us.

154
00:11:48.580 --> 00:11:53.580
And so our job, he gave the design plan, we didn't have any part to play in any of

155
00:11:53.580 --> 00:11:57.220
the design plan or the initial setup.

156
00:11:57.220 --> 00:12:03.060
But once we have that temple, we do have the role, we do have the responsibility for its

157
00:12:03.060 --> 00:12:05.380
maintenance.

158
00:12:05.380 --> 00:12:11.420
So looking back again, so we've now said the body made out of the dust, water, the life

159
00:12:11.420 --> 00:12:17.980
in it, it's a temple, the neuro peptides that connect to the soul.

160
00:12:17.980 --> 00:12:21.860
So what about the soul?

161
00:12:21.860 --> 00:12:27.660
So the soul has three main components.

162
00:12:27.660 --> 00:12:32.700
So we can open the soul out and we can we can look at it in these three main components.

163
00:12:32.700 --> 00:12:39.140
So the first is feelings, our emotions, what we feel, and that's a very powerful driver

164
00:12:39.140 --> 00:12:41.060
for most of us.

165
00:12:41.060 --> 00:12:55.500
And then there's the will, which is our ability.

166
00:12:55.500 --> 00:13:00.500
So back to those neuro peptides that are between the body and the soul.

167
00:13:00.500 --> 00:13:02.020
Something happens in the body.

168
00:13:02.020 --> 00:13:08.500
If you incur an injury, if you've just had the flu or COVID, if you've had something

169
00:13:08.500 --> 00:13:16.100
happen to the body, neuro peptides will be created that will carry that message through

170
00:13:16.100 --> 00:13:17.580
to the soul.

171
00:13:17.580 --> 00:13:24.520
And you will feel an emotion related to what has happened in the body.

172
00:13:24.520 --> 00:13:28.660
Many of us will remember having had a well, again, it applies very much to COVID.

173
00:13:28.660 --> 00:13:33.740
But what we call what is being labeled as long COVID, it'll happen with any flu or most

174
00:13:33.740 --> 00:13:34.740
chronic illnesses.

175
00:13:35.540 --> 00:13:40.980
After an illness, we feel, what do we feel sad, depressed.

176
00:13:40.980 --> 00:13:48.060
That's a pure neurochemical biochemical effect that is being told to the body, told to the

177
00:13:48.060 --> 00:13:52.620
feelings by what has happened in the body and the neuro peptides are carrying that message

178
00:13:52.620 --> 00:13:55.980
around into the body.

179
00:13:55.980 --> 00:14:00.860
So the body communicates with the soul with the feelings by these neuro peptides, but

180
00:14:00.860 --> 00:14:03.660
it's a two way street.

181
00:14:03.660 --> 00:14:12.420
If you are feeling sad, angry, afraid, particular neuro peptides are generated that carry that

182
00:14:12.420 --> 00:14:19.860
message back into the body and the body responds and the body feels it.

183
00:14:19.860 --> 00:14:25.740
And so this is part of the mechanism for locked in memories, what we call body memory, that

184
00:14:25.740 --> 00:14:33.820
the body will have a registry of things that have happened and it'll feel it.

185
00:14:33.820 --> 00:14:40.020
So the liver is said to be, for example, the organ of anger and bitterness and resentment.

186
00:14:40.020 --> 00:14:46.940
And so if things have happened emotionally, and you've stored anger, bitterness, resentment,

187
00:14:46.940 --> 00:14:51.900
it is said to be able to be stored in the liver and affect the liver energies and the

188
00:14:51.900 --> 00:14:53.980
liver function.

189
00:14:53.980 --> 00:14:58.260
So the kidneys are said to be the organ of fear.

190
00:14:58.260 --> 00:15:00.060
The lungs are the organ of fear.

191
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.760
grief of sadness. And that makes sense, doesn't it? When you think about it, when you really sad,

192
00:15:03.760 --> 00:15:11.840
what do you do you sigh to your lungs. So there's this two way street between the body and the soul

193
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:18.320
and in particular feelings that is that is largely done via the neuro peptides.

194
00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:28.080
So part of how that the other part of how this will be conveyed is is the autonomic

195
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:33.280
nervous system. So again, I'm going to be saying a lot more about this as we unpack the course.

196
00:15:34.080 --> 00:15:39.280
But suffice to say, there are basically two arms to the autonomic, you could also think in your

197
00:15:39.280 --> 00:15:43.520
mind automatic nervous system. So this is subconscious, right? The autonomic nervous

198
00:15:43.520 --> 00:15:54.240
system all operates subconsciously. So there's the sympathetic SNS for short, and the parasympathetic

199
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:59.920
and I should have put their PNS for short. So your sympathetic is if you like primitive

200
00:15:59.920 --> 00:16:06.160
reactive system, this is the alarm nervous system throughout the body. And this is the

201
00:16:06.160 --> 00:16:12.160
part of the nervous system that generates the flight fright fight response, the body's automatic

202
00:16:12.160 --> 00:16:25.520
response to danger. Sympathetic nervous system instead, and if the body isn't in a state of if

203
00:16:25.520 --> 00:16:29.920
we're not in a state of wellness, if we're not doing things right, if too much has gone wrong,

204
00:16:29.920 --> 00:16:33.840
the body can get locked in a sympathetic nervous system activation state.

205
00:16:35.280 --> 00:16:40.000
Parasympathetic nervous system is the for want of a better word, the mature nervous system,

206
00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:48.960
this develops. Later on, early babies have a strongly functioning sympathetic nervous system,

207
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:54.640
they need to develop their parasympathetic. Again, I'll talk a lot more about this later.

208
00:16:54.640 --> 00:17:02.640
But the parasympathetic nervous system is largely the nervous system for rest and digest and repair.

209
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:09.520
So you see, it's a very different response, isn't it? What does God say? He says, fear not,

210
00:17:09.520 --> 00:17:17.839
he says, do not be in fear. He says, rest in me. Rest in me. So he is telling us that we're not

211
00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:22.160
to live in a sympathetic state, we're to learn how to activate our parasympathetic.

212
00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:29.360
So back again to this, this breakdown of the soul. So you're beginning to get a feel of this,

213
00:17:29.360 --> 00:17:35.840
we have our feelings, our emotions. And the default setting for those feelings and emotions,

214
00:17:35.840 --> 00:17:40.720
if you like, is the sympathetic nervous system, the flight, flight, flight, that's our default

215
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:45.520
setting. Then we have the thoughts which are held in our mind. So another distinction,

216
00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:53.040
our feelings are largely throughout our body, but our thoughts are in our mind, in our brain.

217
00:17:53.280 --> 00:18:00.720
And then the choice. So we say within our sympathetic nervous system has been activated,

218
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:06.080
it's our default system, something's happened, we've gone into alarm mode. And depending on our

219
00:18:06.080 --> 00:18:09.840
particular personality, constitutional type, and the things that we've learned over time,

220
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:17.520
it can be a mix of any of these fear, anger, sadness, as the key three. Some people are

221
00:18:17.520 --> 00:18:21.440
much more fearful, and you probably all know someone who's just really fearful and anxious,

222
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:27.440
and that's their permanent state almost. You might know other people who are really just

223
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:32.160
angry and irritable. And that, again, is their permanent state, or other people who seem to be

224
00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:36.800
permanently sad and depressed and withdrawn. So in each of these people, they're living

225
00:18:36.800 --> 00:18:44.480
in a sympathetic nervous system state. So the problem with those feelings is that our mind,

226
00:18:44.480 --> 00:18:47.840
remembering that all of what's going through the body conveys back up to the brain,

227
00:18:47.840 --> 00:18:57.520
the mind, our thoughts start to own those feelings. And so we go from just feeling fear to

228
00:18:57.520 --> 00:19:08.640
saying to owning it and saying, I am afraid, we go from just feeling and good to owning it.

229
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:21.840
I am angry, I am sad. So that then becomes a thought locked in our mind.

230
00:19:23.360 --> 00:19:29.680
But then we have to come to the question of the will. Now back back to to this one.

231
00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:36.480
The thoughts, what does God say about that? What does Jesus have to say? He says that,

232
00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:42.160
you know, we are to have the mind of Christ.

233
00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:52.320
It doesn't say we are to have the feelings of Christ. The word says that we are to take

234
00:19:52.320 --> 00:19:59.760
every thought captive to the obedience of Christ Jesus, not every feeling, every thought captive.

235
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.560
the obedience of Christ Jesus. And so that gives you the idea that there is somehow some

236
00:20:05.560 --> 00:20:09.560
sort of element here, that we can actually control the thoughts, we might not be able

237
00:20:09.560 --> 00:20:14.920
to control the feelings, but we can control the thoughts. And that's very much it. And

238
00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:19.520
so that's where the wheel comes in. Remember, I separated it out to feelings, thoughts and

239
00:20:19.520 --> 00:20:24.720
will and this is where the wheel comes in. And that's thought to be the element that

240
00:20:24.720 --> 00:20:29.800
puts us different to the animals that we actually have an ability to choose. There have been

241
00:20:29.800 --> 00:20:37.480
a few interesting studies around that recently, but we have the ability to choose. And I love

242
00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:41.880
the story, the year end chapter of Deuteronomy, where the Israelites have all come to the

243
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:45.680
brink of the Jordan for the second time, it's not their first time, they came the first

244
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:52.720
time they went in fear, right, they were in fear. And so they lost that walked back into

245
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:57.280
the desert, God had them circling for 40 years, till that entire generation that had been

246
00:20:57.280 --> 00:21:02.920
in fear, were dead. And now he's brought them back to the shores of the Jordan a second

247
00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:10.360
time. And Moses reads the whole story out. And then he says, behold, stop, look, say,

248
00:21:10.360 --> 00:21:40.280
I lay before you life, and death, blessings, and cursings, therefore, choose life. So the whole thing about us being able to be in life is actually a choice. It doesn't just happen by default. And in fact,

249
00:21:40.440 --> 00:21:49.160
if we go into default, we are back in our sympathetic nervous system. That's our default

250
00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:55.160
system. If we don't consciously choose life, we are going to be operating out of reactive

251
00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:59.640
mode. We're going to be operating out of our alarm system, we're going to be operating

252
00:21:59.640 --> 00:22:11.200
out of fear, anger, sadness. And God commands us not to fear. It's a command. Paul in Philippians

253
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:22.480
four says have no anxiety about any world, we can be anxious about the fact we've just

254
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:27.240
got a nasty medical diagnosis, we can be anxious that we're running out of money. No, he says

255
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:35.080
have no anxiety about any thing. But in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving

256
00:22:35.080 --> 00:22:42.000
that your request be made known to God and the peace of God parasympathetic nervous system

257
00:22:42.000 --> 00:22:49.800
will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, your heart and your mind, your thoughts

258
00:22:49.800 --> 00:23:03.240
in Christ, Jesus. So feelings, be aware of the automatic feelings that become thoughts

259
00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:10.680
that we start to own those feelings and say I am these things. But God says no, we do

260
00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:16.600
operate our will. We don't allow fear, anger, sadness to stay. The feelings will be there,

261
00:23:16.600 --> 00:23:22.320
but we don't own them as thoughts, we don't have the mind of Christ. And we are to choose.

262
00:23:22.320 --> 00:23:31.600
We've been given that ability to choose life. And we are to choose. And so, as I've said,

263
00:23:31.600 --> 00:23:35.640
what so what then are the life thoughts so to get a handle on this, it's often a good

264
00:23:35.640 --> 00:23:41.520
idea to start writing down, what are you actually thinking? What are we actually thinking? What

265
00:23:41.520 --> 00:23:48.240
am I actually thinking? Am I thinking that I have abundant life and abundant health?

266
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:56.320
Or am I thinking, oh, dear, I'm sick? Am I thinking that God loves me, and his plans

267
00:23:56.320 --> 00:24:01.840
are plans for good? Or am I thinking it's all looking really bad, and things are terrible?

268
00:24:01.840 --> 00:24:07.080
What am I thinking? I'm worthless. I'm not worth anything. I'm hopeless. I can never

269
00:24:07.080 --> 00:24:11.880
do anything. You know, it's all going to fail. Or am I thinking now God's plans for

270
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:18.520
my life are plans for good, not for evil for what am I thinking? And the exercise of writing

271
00:24:18.520 --> 00:24:23.800
down our thoughts will often help tease that out for us. So let's have a look and see I

272
00:24:23.800 --> 00:24:28.840
have we got life thoughts or have we got death thoughts, because anything that's not a conscious

273
00:24:28.840 --> 00:24:33.400
life thought by default, is going to be from the sympathetic nervous system, it's going

274
00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:41.400
be flight, fright, fight, it's going to be a negative thought. So fear, anger, sadness,

275
00:24:41.400 --> 00:24:49.400
and what's what's our God version? Fear is faith, love. Perfect love casts out fear.

276
00:24:50.040 --> 00:24:54.840
I haven't given you a spirit of fear, but of love, and of power and a sound mind.

277
00:24:56.040 --> 00:24:59.880
So love. So fear is a negative belief system.

278
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:07.240
Fear is believing bad will happen. But God says we to believe him we to believe good

279
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:14.600
will happen. God is love. We believe in him. That's faith. We believe in him and his love.

280
00:25:14.600 --> 00:25:25.280
Anger, the flip of anger, of course, is peace. Peace stills the angry storm. Sadness, when

281
00:25:25.280 --> 00:25:32.560
you flip of sadness is joy. Sadness might last for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

282
00:25:32.560 --> 00:25:36.520
And what's interesting is that those three things, the flip side of our sympathetic nervous

283
00:25:36.520 --> 00:25:41.400
system emotions, the flip side of the thoughts that have come out of that are the first three

284
00:25:41.400 --> 00:25:50.560
fruits of the spirit. Love, joy, peace. So we are to be operating out of the spirit.

285
00:25:50.560 --> 00:25:58.680
Of course, the spirit, as I open things out, the spirit is next to the will. So operating

286
00:25:58.680 --> 00:26:06.120
the spirit, that empowers our will and our mind to take every thought captive, so that

287
00:26:06.120 --> 00:26:17.400
it lines up with God. So life thoughts. So we'll escape that now. And I just want to

288
00:26:17.480 --> 00:26:26.760
talk around all of those things a bit more. So that's the slides to go with that. So now,

289
00:26:26.760 --> 00:26:34.760
back to this whole idea of body, soul, spirit, and choosing to live in this. I just want to

290
00:26:34.760 --> 00:26:47.480
stop that screen share. Technology, I'm back again. Choice to come in line with God. First,

291
00:26:47.480 --> 00:26:58.200
recognizing that we are made in his image. And we tease that out. Learn to get a sense of each

292
00:26:58.280 --> 00:27:06.520
of those. If we want to be living in abundant life, we move into each one of those areas. So

293
00:27:06.520 --> 00:27:15.320
we start looking at the body. We start looking at our temple. Are we using good quality materials?

294
00:27:15.320 --> 00:27:21.640
Are we using these materials in a way that fits our own DNA and our own pattern? Because not all

295
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:27.240
of us are meant to live in the same climate. Not all of us are meant to be eating the same foods.

296
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:35.560
Not all of us do well with the same types of exercise. So we are all unique. We are all a

297
00:27:35.560 --> 00:27:42.520
different facet of God, the glory of God. We're all a different facet. So we look to our body

298
00:27:42.520 --> 00:27:51.240
and look to what's the design for our particular temple? What does our temple need? So we look to

299
00:27:51.240 --> 00:27:56.760
our temple, we deal with our body, we be aware that what's happening, anything that happens

300
00:27:56.840 --> 00:28:04.920
in our body is going to activate our neuropeptides. And as I said, there's a whole heap of these

301
00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:13.080
neurologically acting protein particles, neuropeptides. So these are small proteins

302
00:28:13.080 --> 00:28:21.240
that carry emotion around the body. So neuropeptides that carry this around the body

303
00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:29.240
and affect the soul. So our soul is not just feelings that we might feel in one part of our

304
00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:36.600
body, our soul is effectively certainly our feelings, I should say, our feelings are throughout

305
00:28:37.560 --> 00:28:46.520
our body, travelled there by the nervous system, travelled there by neuropeptides,

306
00:28:46.520 --> 00:28:57.160
by other hormones. So feelings are felt in the body as real feelings. The nervous system

307
00:28:58.120 --> 00:29:04.120
picks up on those feelings and travels those messages back up to the brain, and the brain

308
00:29:04.120 --> 00:29:10.920
processes that. So it's it's about what filter mechanisms are you going to put on

309
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:21.480
for that filter from emotions through to thoughts? Are we simply going to let everything that happens

310
00:29:21.480 --> 00:29:26.200
in the body, and remembering what comes into the body, what comes in, I didn't put into that

311
00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:31.320
diagram and what's coming in externally. So all these external factors are feeding into this as

312
00:29:31.320 --> 00:29:37.880
well. So it's not just things that might happen to the body. Yes, it's our food, it's our external

313
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:41.880
environments, it's the pressures from people around, it's things people have said, it's the

314
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:48.120
chemicals in the environment, all of these things are feeding into our body the whole time, and

315
00:29:48.120 --> 00:29:55.400
activating our alarm systems, our sympathetic nervous system, stress, big one, everyone knows

316
00:29:55.400 --> 00:29:59.800
that. So our sympathetic nervous system is being activated.

317
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.840
the entire time by what's going on. So the body is being activated, sympathetic nervous

318
00:30:06.840 --> 00:30:13.160
system being activated, neuro peptides being activated, that creates these feelings in

319
00:30:13.160 --> 00:30:17.280
our body. And depending on what that feeling is, and our constitutional type, whether we

320
00:30:17.280 --> 00:30:24.960
feel it in our heart, everyone knows the heart pain that that comes from a broken relationship,

321
00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:32.320
we feel that in our physical heart, heart pain, the grieving, as I said earlier, the grief of

322
00:30:32.320 --> 00:30:38.800
a lost one, we will feel in our lungs, and we will be sighing. So the body parts of the body,

323
00:30:38.800 --> 00:30:46.960
and a feeling overburdened will often result in back pain. So this body feeling interaction,

324
00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:56.960
but we choose to come into that place, where we get our mind, these thoughts, and we look at our

325
00:30:56.960 --> 00:31:04.320
thoughts. And instead of letting our thoughts simply run along with our feelings. So instead

326
00:31:04.320 --> 00:31:10.960
of having our thoughts, amplify our feelings. And that see, there's a there are some slides

327
00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:20.640
missing out of that, which I'll just have to talk you through. So when, because our mind controls

328
00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:26.960
our body, and the mind sends messages through the nervous system, and then again, also through

329
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:33.920
through brain hormones and neuro peptides, the mind controls the body. If we have allowed our

330
00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:37.280
thoughts to get locked into the negative,

331
00:31:39.920 --> 00:31:46.800
then the messages that our mind is sending back into our body, not it not simply negative,

332
00:31:46.800 --> 00:31:51.920
but they actually are locking the body into that negative pattern. And more than that,

333
00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:56.720
are instructing the body to stay in that negative pattern.

334
00:31:57.600 --> 00:32:05.440
So our thoughts control our body. And so where our thoughts are at is just such an absolute key

335
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:13.040
for getting all of this right. We have to line our thoughts up with what God says about us.

336
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:19.760
Line our thoughts up with what we know what we have felt will be or what we believe them to be

337
00:32:19.760 --> 00:32:25.520
our destiny, our goals. And Benji's done so much good teaching on all of that. There's so much

338
00:32:26.480 --> 00:32:31.200
about how to be able to unpack that, of how to find that and how to work with that. But we must

339
00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:40.560
recognize the power of our mind, and the power of our thoughts. So this isn't just positive thinking.

340
00:32:41.200 --> 00:32:44.480
I'm not just talking about positive thinking, when no matter how bad things are, you just walk

341
00:32:44.480 --> 00:32:51.760
out there and you say something positive. What I'm talking about is recognizing that God designed

342
00:32:51.760 --> 00:33:06.720
our minds in such a way that we will align them with the word of God. Because God is always

343
00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:12.720
watching over his word to perform it. Our minds will instruct principles and with what God has

344
00:33:12.800 --> 00:33:20.960
said. So it's almost like we can instruct our bodies to be well.

345
00:33:23.600 --> 00:33:30.480
Now that doesn't mean we're going to feel it. When we're in the middle of or have just undergone

346
00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:37.680
something major that's affected our body and has affected our emotions. The last thing we feel like

347
00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:47.280
is saying, I'm well, I'm going to be well, it's all fine. That's the last thing we feel like.

348
00:33:49.280 --> 00:33:54.640
But if we let our feelings govern us, as I've shown you from that diagram, if we let our

349
00:33:54.640 --> 00:34:00.880
feelings govern us, then the body is locked in the negative. If we let our feelings

350
00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:05.280
govern us. So we have to learn to separate out

351
00:34:08.719 --> 00:34:15.600
our feelings from our thoughts and have a look at what are we thinking? Are we choosing to think

352
00:34:15.600 --> 00:34:22.480
that we are going to live and we are living in abundant life and abundant health? Or are we

353
00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:27.120
choosing to think that we are going to stay in this state that we're in forever? And that's a

354
00:34:27.120 --> 00:34:35.440
fear thought. Can be sadness in that as well. But usually that's that's fear. So be aware of that,

355
00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:41.360
really look at this thing of your house, we need to look at, I have to do it all the time to what

356
00:34:41.360 --> 00:34:48.480
are we thinking, and get our thoughts aligned with the Word of God, get our thoughts aligned

357
00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:57.360
with what God would speak over us, in every area, provision, health, relationships, every area,

358
00:34:58.320 --> 00:34:59.840
get our thoughts aligned.

359
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:09.280
with what God is saying. And our minds will then instruct our feelings and our bodies

360
00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:15.280
and they will come in line. Is there any science behind this? There's a great study that I

361
00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:21.720
really love, which is simple, very, very simple about smiling. Really simple this one. And

362
00:35:21.720 --> 00:35:26.320
what they showed was that the simple act, so this is a physical act of smiling that

363
00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:31.540
we will do based off a thought that says, I'm going to choose to smile. The physical

364
00:35:31.540 --> 00:35:39.680
act of smiling, choosing to smile actually changes the neurotransmitters. So you start

365
00:35:39.680 --> 00:35:49.800
to feel happier. So we can operate this choice down over choosing actions that are known

366
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:55.200
to generate positive neurotransmitters and therefore generate better feelings, you know,

367
00:35:55.200 --> 00:36:04.160
healthy feelings. We can do it choosing to change our thought patterns that can will

368
00:36:04.160 --> 00:36:11.040
then just directly change our feelings. So there's so many ways we can do this. But all

369
00:36:11.040 --> 00:36:18.400
of that comes to this thing of coming in alignment with God, with God's word, with his plans

370
00:36:18.400 --> 00:36:22.400
for us coming in alignment with the fact that he is a God of love, that the fruit of the

371
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:31.560
spirit is love, joy, peace, not fear, anger, sadness. He commands us not to fear, but to

372
00:36:31.560 --> 00:36:42.440
move instead across in to this. So body, soul with the will, the choice, the spirit, so

373
00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:48.320
the spirit life can inflow through. So if we've put up blocks, anywhere along the way

374
00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:54.760
here, if we are allowing physical blocks, if we are allowing ourselves to stay in in

375
00:36:54.760 --> 00:37:00.520
a state of not wanting to exercise, just refusing to I don't like it, it's too hard. If we are

376
00:37:00.520 --> 00:37:05.640
allowing ourselves to stay in a state where I don't want to give up my smoking, if we're

377
00:37:05.640 --> 00:37:10.520
allowing ourselves to stay in a state where we're sitting up till one or 2am every morning,

378
00:37:10.520 --> 00:37:16.100
doing stuff on the computer, if we're allowing any of these things, which are which are directly

379
00:37:16.100 --> 00:37:22.740
physically harmful, then that spirit life is blocked, it cannot flow through. So in

380
00:37:22.740 --> 00:37:29.260
each of these areas, we need to come in line with creation come in line with God's way

381
00:37:29.260 --> 00:37:41.380
of doing it so that that life force will flow through. And so then what what about I touched

382
00:37:41.380 --> 00:37:46.140
on the bioenergetics. So let's let's touch on that a little bit. So this this interface

383
00:37:46.140 --> 00:37:53.500
that we have between the soul and the spirit. Now, again, in our modern society, we're playing

384
00:37:53.500 --> 00:37:58.100
around with a lot of different a lot of different chemicals. These days, there are a lot of

385
00:37:58.100 --> 00:38:08.500
drugs that will cross this very important area was believed to be impermeable, we couldn't

386
00:38:08.500 --> 00:38:13.260
get drugs across it, we couldn't get things across it. So the blood brain barrier is a

387
00:38:13.260 --> 00:38:20.340
very particular barrier that God put in place a physical barrier in our brain. That means

388
00:38:20.340 --> 00:38:24.740
that what's coming through the blood supply doesn't cross into the brain tissue, it's

389
00:38:24.740 --> 00:38:31.420
a protection for our brain tissue. But over the years, the pharmaceutical industry has

390
00:38:31.420 --> 00:38:40.140
become very, very capable, and has deliberately worked to find drugs that do affect the brain

391
00:38:40.140 --> 00:38:45.260
that affects the neurotransmitters in the brain that cross the blood brain barrier and

392
00:38:45.260 --> 00:38:50.300
get into brain tissue, the modern, a lot of the modern vaccines actually do that they

393
00:38:50.300 --> 00:38:54.140
have what's called lipid nanoparticles, and we'll get into the brain. And so more and

394
00:38:54.140 --> 00:39:00.060
more things will get into the brain. All the psychoactive drugs, anesthetics, of course,

395
00:39:00.060 --> 00:39:04.180
affect on the brain. That's how they put you to sleep so they can operate you. So all

396
00:39:04.180 --> 00:39:14.180
of these things are acting on the brain directly. All of these things are coming in on the if

397
00:39:14.180 --> 00:39:19.460
you like that bio energetic pathway, there are a lot of other things that disrupt our

398
00:39:19.460 --> 00:39:24.140
energetics as well, the modern electromagnetic fields, as I touched on, are going to be a

399
00:39:24.300 --> 00:39:31.740
challenge and a disruption to our bio energetics, because we are energetic, we operate on our own

400
00:39:31.740 --> 00:39:37.740
particular frequencies, and we actually harmonize, we resonate with this planet, God made us out of

401
00:39:37.740 --> 00:39:42.620
this planet, he made us to be part of this planet. And that's what we resonate with. That's

402
00:39:42.620 --> 00:39:49.340
what we harmonize with. So when we're exposed to too many of these other foreign things,

403
00:39:49.660 --> 00:39:56.620
these foreign energies, if you like, we are losing power, we are losing our energy field

404
00:39:56.620 --> 00:39:59.900
strength in being able to deal with that. So there's that

405
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:02.160
kind of component of the energetics.

406
00:40:02.160 --> 00:40:04.920
Then there's the component as I touched on of these drugs,

407
00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:06.640
these psychoactive medications,

408
00:40:06.640 --> 00:40:08.400
these things that can make it

409
00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:11.280
and actually disrupt the brain chemistry,

410
00:40:11.280 --> 00:40:14.320
the brain structure directly.

411
00:40:14.320 --> 00:40:17.520
So we need to be aware of all of these things

412
00:40:17.520 --> 00:40:22.520
and just keep ourselves as protected as far as possible.

413
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:36.000
So for everyone here on the time that was lost,

414
00:40:36.000 --> 00:40:37.120
I'll wrap that all up.

415
00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:41.520
But over the time to come in subsequent presentations,

416
00:40:41.520 --> 00:40:44.160
I'm going to be unpacking each of these things somewhat more.

417
00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:49.200
So we are like God triune.

418
00:40:49.200 --> 00:40:55.360
We are body, soul, spirit together, all as one,

419
00:40:55.360 --> 00:40:58.000
but can also be separated out so we understand it,

420
00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:01.520
the interfaces body that is designed.

421
00:41:01.520 --> 00:41:02.880
God says we're a temple.

422
00:41:03.520 --> 00:41:04.880
We are to house him.

423
00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:07.120
He is to be able to abide in us,

424
00:41:07.120 --> 00:41:09.120
Christ in us, the hope of glory.

425
00:41:09.120 --> 00:41:11.680
He's to abide in us, to be able to rest in us.

426
00:41:14.080 --> 00:41:15.120
So we're a temple.

427
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:18.960
God's original plan found in our DNA.

428
00:41:20.240 --> 00:41:22.160
And of course, this is where we come to questions of things

429
00:41:22.160 --> 00:41:23.840
that have corrupted our DNA,

430
00:41:23.840 --> 00:41:26.640
both generationally, generational corruption,

431
00:41:26.640 --> 00:41:27.520
for want of a better word.

432
00:41:27.600 --> 00:41:29.840
This is a generational transfer of things,

433
00:41:29.840 --> 00:41:32.080
but also things that happen in our modern environment,

434
00:41:32.080 --> 00:41:34.800
what's called epigenetics that alters our DNA.

435
00:41:34.800 --> 00:41:37.280
So that's a whole other question talking about our DNA.

436
00:41:38.160 --> 00:41:39.600
God's incorruptible seed.

437
00:41:40.240 --> 00:41:43.520
So our DNA, then it's the building blocks.

438
00:41:43.520 --> 00:41:49.840
Then it's the building blocks to make the temple from that DNA.

439
00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:51.680
And then all the workers, the instruction,

440
00:41:51.680 --> 00:41:53.680
the foreman, the workers to do that.

441
00:41:53.680 --> 00:41:56.160
And our job is to maintain that temple.

442
00:41:56.160 --> 00:41:58.880
God engineered, worked out the building of it.

443
00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:03.520
Our job is to maintain it.

444
00:42:04.080 --> 00:42:07.040
So the temple, things that happen to the body

445
00:42:07.040 --> 00:42:08.960
get reflected by the neuropeptides

446
00:42:08.960 --> 00:42:10.080
and affect the feelings.

447
00:42:10.640 --> 00:42:12.160
Our sympathetic nervous system,

448
00:42:12.160 --> 00:42:14.240
the flight, fright, fight system

449
00:42:14.240 --> 00:42:17.200
is the alarm system that does that initial reacting.

450
00:42:17.200 --> 00:42:18.480
And yes, we need to be able to have

451
00:42:18.480 --> 00:42:19.760
an appropriate initial reaction,

452
00:42:19.760 --> 00:42:21.600
but we're not to stay in that state.

453
00:42:22.160 --> 00:42:29.680
We are to be able to move into the mature,

454
00:42:29.680 --> 00:42:32.480
parasympathetic nervous and appropriately deal with

455
00:42:32.480 --> 00:42:35.840
and heal from whatever that danger, that insult was.

456
00:42:35.840 --> 00:42:38.240
So the feelings that come from the sympathetic nervous system,

457
00:42:38.240 --> 00:42:39.760
fear, anger, sadness,

458
00:42:39.760 --> 00:42:43.120
if we're not watching them, being mindful of our thoughts,

459
00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:51.280
those feelings will get back across

460
00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:52.640
and become thoughts.

461
00:42:52.640 --> 00:42:53.680
I am afraid.

462
00:42:53.680 --> 00:42:55.520
And those thoughts, which are in our mind

463
00:42:55.520 --> 00:42:57.760
and instruct our body and instruct our feelings,

464
00:42:57.760 --> 00:42:58.880
we get locked in that state.

465
00:43:00.080 --> 00:43:02.000
So we had to take, look at our thoughts

466
00:43:02.720 --> 00:43:05.360
and determine are these positive thoughts?

467
00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:12.880
Are they negative thoughts of life?

468
00:43:12.880 --> 00:43:14.240
Are they thoughts of death?

469
00:43:14.240 --> 00:43:16.320
Are they thoughts for a good future or not?

470
00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:18.320
So we have to look at each of our,

471
00:43:18.320 --> 00:43:20.640
look at our thoughts and bring them in line.

472
00:43:20.640 --> 00:43:23.840
The mind of Christ, bring them in line with God's word.

473
00:43:23.840 --> 00:43:25.600
And we have the ability to do that.

474
00:43:25.600 --> 00:43:26.880
God gave us will.

475
00:43:27.440 --> 00:43:30.800
He gave us the ability to choose.

476
00:43:31.760 --> 00:43:33.600
As Moses said it so beautifully,

477
00:43:33.600 --> 00:43:37.600
Deuteronomy 32, behold, I lay before you life and death,

478
00:43:37.600 --> 00:43:42.480
blessings and cursings, therefore choose life.

479
00:43:42.480 --> 00:43:43.840
It's not going to just happen for us.

480
00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:49.360
We have to actively choose it.

481
00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:51.920
We have to actively, life has set us free

482
00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:52.960
from the law of sin and death.

483
00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:56.320
That life can flow through our bodies

484
00:43:56.320 --> 00:43:59.040
and bring life, God's planned life,

485
00:44:00.720 --> 00:44:02.080
through to our entire bodies.

486
00:44:03.440 --> 00:44:05.440
So I hope that's been helpful for you.

487
00:44:05.440 --> 00:44:07.440
As I said, a lot more of that is going to be unpacked

488
00:44:07.440 --> 00:44:09.920
in times to come as we talk more down the track.

489
00:44:11.920 --> 00:44:15.680
And as I said, I tried to put it in a bit to make it

490
00:44:15.680 --> 00:44:16.800
that you're not sitting here

491
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:22.560
than you would have.

492
00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:24.640
So, well, thanks.

493
00:44:25.280 --> 00:44:33.040
Bye.

494
00:44:45.680 --> 00:44:46.180
Bye.

495
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:02.060
you
