Our will apart from Christ is a vain imagination.

Every atom looses its identity. They all think they are the same and in the same place.1
The above is only possible within a “Bose Einstein Condensate” or “Super Atom”.
A table or chair is created based on the arrangement of the atoms. So, if the atoms of a chair are all in the same place then how would it be chair? This goes against everything we see around us, but that is what the BEC is doing.
I am reminded of Paul’s letter to Ephesus, Eph. 4:3-6,13 and Col. 1:17. And when Jesus said, “Shelem (Aramaic)” or “It is finished” on the cross.
I went outside today for break. A rain drop hit my head. I remembered the word coalescence2 . In Christ we are “knit together”, Col. 2:2, in love. He, Christ, is the Head. And we have the mind of Christ unto the unanimity of the Spirit and Body of Christ. We reflect the glory of the one, same and true God. Reminds me of the BEC.

Speaking of the Greek prefix sun-, “Sun- means not only are we together with one another, but we are so mixed in that nobody can tell the difference one from the other.”
Judge not lest ye be judged.
The verse came to a new light in my spirit today.
I see this. When I judge someone I am projecting at them what is above me or what I perceive to be under. And in fact, I may be totally unaware of the personal ordinance or expectation I am under at the time because I have allowed it to be there for so long. I have yet to realize its existence.
When I judge someone or myself I am bringing out into this realm what is upon or in my heart (a hidden written law). In doing so, I am being judged with that same intrinsic law.
My fallen and unregenerate nature desires to come back to life and to be enlivened by the power of the law whether it be through self-righteousness, stubbornness and or rebellion.
Hence the second chapter of Romans, in which Paul says that those who judge do those things which they judge others for. And that is based on what? For Gentiles, it is based on the self-imposed law written on the individual’s heart. Paul also speaks on other letters of being separated from this wretched man, that which was contrary to our true nature and against us and making the two one who had a wall of hostility in between them.
Now, some twenty years later, I see that Jesus says so much when He speaks. That is a bit obvious. The Spirit of God is the Oracle of infinite facets of revelation within the same black and white letters.
From a gospel perspective, the four in particular, I see Jesus saying over and over in various ways that He is the Way period.
Romans says He is the end of the law. Makes sense. In the Hebrew mind eternity is to look into the horizon, get to that destination and look to the next horizon. Given that, He, Christ, is the end of the law, but there is another horizon which is the ‘two’ made into One New Man, the Last Adam.
This new man is the Word made flesh, full of grace and truth, with all the fullness of God in Him. And now, dwells in those who believe in Him.
The desire of the old ‘sin’ nature is disempowered when the conscience is purged and sanctified. The old man is buried in Christ. The work of sanctification is a process of a lifetime one day and moment at a time transforming flesh into word unto glorification.
Kenneth E. Hagin 02-02-1982
Jas. 5:14, “Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:”
Mr. Hagin said James was asking implying there shouldn’t be any, but if there are then do these things. Hagin also said we can pray for our own healing, but if we are younger spiritually as in this case in James then this is an alternative method. Those to whom James was writing to it seems were younger possibly babes or children spiritually in Christ.
This makes sense. For so long I have read this a instructional and not from this perspective.
1 Thessalonians 2:13
Philippians 2:13
When the seal on a jar of perfume is opened the vapor of perfume through osmosis naturally fills the area in which it was opened.
When the spirit receives the light & revelatory word the body responds, obeys and heals.
The same happens to the members of our body by the word. This is a type of the power of God unto salvation by faith unto faith.
Colossians 2:19, “They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.”
In the Old Covenant, the Spirit of God could only enter the Holy of Holies by sacrificial blood to atone for sin. In other words, no sin allowed in the Holy of Holies.
Under the New Covenant, as believers, we carry the Holy of Holies with us everywhere we go.
“He knew no sin.” “In Him was no sin.”
Now, we are in Christ. He is in us. The Spirit of God dwells where there is no sin by grace through His faith in us. No condemnation. Unconsciousness of sin predicated on no more condemnation through the judgment of the law. I cannot judge what I am not aware of. Blameless and irreprehensible in Christ by and through His completed work on the cross.
Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
Literal paraphrase from Hebrew root definitions:
Watch over and guard as so to preserve the ‘authority within’, the seat of thought and emotion, your heart, protecting it like a shepherd who constructs corrals of briers at night for his flock. For from within the heart is life.
How do I have a free will if I am born into sin out of iniquity? I am a slave unto sin.
How do I have free will if the power of God is unto salvation? It is the power of God not my will to be born again.
Naturally speaking, given deductive reasoning, the apparent answer is no in the aforementioned examples I do not posses a free will.
Hence our need to know the mystery of His will. And to know and understand His will by the transforming our mind. What is the mind of Christ?
This clarifies errant thoughts and thoughts pre- and post-salvation.
2 Corinthians 3:7,
But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away..
Paul says, “The ministry of death.” Or “For if the operation of the law, giving death, recorded in letters on stone, came with glory1..”, but I hear brothers tell me, “No, the law was fulfilled.” I say yes it was, but we as believers are not called to fulfill it in the sense of keeping the Mosaic Law. He, Christ Jesus, fulfilled the law for the Jew (who never could fulfill or was called to fulfill) and abolished and annulled for the Gentile.
In the New Covenant, we serve in a new way of the Spirit of God. We live by His faith in and through us. His power is exercised in our and through a minds, hearts and lives, Gal. 2:20. We walk in the Spirit.
In my opinion, the brother or sister that feels we still need to fulfill the law or does not acknowledge Christ’s complete work of abolishing “that which was contrary to us and against us”, Col. 2:14, more than likely ‘keeps’ the law.
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty. Liberty from the guilt and power of sin. Liberty into who we truly are in Him.
