Understanding The dead works of sin and the eternal life of God : part 1

When someone is listening to the gospel and yet he has strange desires to watch pornography or is having strong and compulsive desire to masturbate that is death at work .
That death is produced by sin because of the absence of the eternal life God or because although one has the eternal life of God yet he or she hasn't build the consciousness of working in it power .

Death in man is the absence of the life of God .
When u see fear ,shame ,weakness ,sickness
This are products of the works of sin
Which is death . (not necessary because he who's experiencing them is living in sin but because he has the consciousness of the fallen man -for carnal mindedness (estimating yourself according to who your are in the flesh instead of estimating yourself as same with God ) produces death which results from sin .

Carnal mindedness is when you refuse to walk in the consciousness of the new man that you are or the new identity that God has bestowed upon you as a free gift, but instead chose to walk with the mindset that you are a man who does not have power over sin ,Satan or their works even though you might have the life of God in you which has already defeated these and has absolute power over them .(this requires faith in the word of God )


What the life of God - eternal life does is that it keeps us in the same pace with God .
We want what God wants, we are willing to do what God is doing or wants to do ,
We think the thoughts of God ,behave like God and speak as God would do . and we judge ourselves and everything according to the judgement of God (we judge nothing outside of God's word )
But when the life of God is absent man can not but sin ,desire sin ,live in disobedience ,and take deliberate actions in rebellion to God simply because he does not have the consciousness of God or the life of God .

So the life of God come to change that pattern and activates in us a new life ,new desire ,new thought pattern ,and the desire to obey God .
The eternal life of God is mixed up and mingled up with our own spirit to form one and singular spirit .
The idea of eternal life is to mingle and make our human spirit together with the spirit of God and make them into one spirit .

Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For "the two," He says, "shall become one flesh." But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him. (1 Corinthians 6:16-17|NKJV
And by faith we have been made one with God .

So if I have eternal life in me ,then I have the power to conquer and overcome every thing in me that produces death through the flesh or from within the soul .

God gives us eternal life to overcome every dead works ,every power of sin and every weakness ,every unbelief, every unwillingness ,every fear, every form of shame ,every kinds of bondages ,every evil or sinful desire ,or addiction ,even to overcome every kinds of sicknesses and diseases ,and to exercise authority over the all powers of satan unhurt .

I already have rest in Christ - come unto me and I will give you rest .
I am in him so I have rest .

You are the one who now need rest
For it is written
Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; ... And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey? So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief (Hebrews 3:12,18-19|NKJV.

So you are the one who should rest
