You are making choices every
day in everything you do whether you know it or not. There are only two choices.
Rom.14[12] So
then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Matt.12[36] But
I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall
give account thereof in the day of judgment.
Choose:
God or
Satan
Good or
Evil
Yetzer
ra -
evil inclination
or Yetzer tov - good inclination
the
Flesh or the Spirit
Life or
Death
Rom.6
[16] Know ye not, that
to whom ( the two impulses
) ye yield yourselves servants to obey
, his servants ye are to whom ye obey;
whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Isa.45
[7]
I form the
light, and create
darkness
: I make
peace, and create
evil:
I the LORD do all these things
.
Gen.2[
9] And out of the ground made the LORD
God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and
good for food; the tree of life also
in the midst of the garden, and the
tree of knowledge of good and
evil.
[17 ] But of
the tree
of knowledge of good and evil
., thou shalt not eat of
it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Gen.3 [
5] For God doth know that in
the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as
gods, knowing
good and
evil.
[22] And the
LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us
, to know good
and evil
: and now, lest he
put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for
ever:
Deut.1[
39] Moreover your little ones,
which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no
knowledge between
good and
evil, they shall
go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
Heb.5[[
13] For every one that useth
milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14] But strong
meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those
who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both
good
and evil
.

Gal.3[
3] Are ye so foolish? having
begun in the Spirit, are ye
now made perfect by the
flesh?
Gal.4[
29] But as then he that was
born after the
flesh persecuted him
that was born after the Spirit
, even so it is now.
Gal.5[
16] This I say then,
Walk in the
Spirit, and ye shall
not fulfill the lust of the flesh
. [17
] For the
flesh lusteth against
the Spirit, and the
Spirit against the
flesh
: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that
ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Gal.6[
8] For he that soweth to his
flesh
shall of the
flesh reap corruption;
but he that soweth to the Spirit
shall of the Spirit
reap life everlasting.
Rom.6
[4]... we
also should walk in "newness of life"
( in God )
[5 ] For if
we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also
in the likeness of his resurrection: [6] Knowing this,
that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed,
that henceforth we should not serve sin.
[11] Likewise
reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin
, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
[12
] Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye
should obey it in the lusts thereof.
[13] Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness
unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that
are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments
of righteousness unto God.
[14] For sin
shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.[
15] What then? shall we sin,
because we are not under the "law", but under
grace? God forbid.
[16] Know ye not, that
to whom ( the two impulses
) ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are
to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
[19] I speak
after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh:
for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness
and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness
unto holiness.
Rom.7 [
14] For we know that the
law is spiritual: but I am carnal
, sold under sin.
Rom.8 [
1] There is therefore now no condemnation
to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the
flesh
, but after the Spirit
.
[2] For the
law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of
sin and death.
[14] For as
many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

of hostility; hatred; ill will; animosity; antagonism

by the flesh or the body, its passions and appetites; sensual: carnal pleasures,
not spiritual; merely human; temporal; worldly: a man of secular, rather carnal,
leanings.
We are at War
Rev.12
[7] And there was war in heaven: Michael and
his angels fought against the dragon
; and the dragon fought and his
angels,[8] And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
[9] And the great dragon was cast
out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan,
which deceiveth the whole world: he (
the dragon
) was cast out into the earth, and his angels
were cast out with him.
Dan.7 [
21] I beheld, and the same
horn made war with the saints
, and prevailed against them;
Rev.13
[4] And
they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped
the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with
him?[5] And there was given
unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given
unto him to continue forty and two months.[6
] And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to
blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
1Tim.6[
12]
Fight the good fight of faith
, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and
hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
2Tim.4[
7] I
have fought a good fight, I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith:[8] Henceforth
there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous
judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also
that love his appearing.
Eph.2[
2] Wherein in time past ye walked
according to the course of this world, according to the
prince of the power of the air, the spirit
that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Eph.6[
10] Finally, my brethren, be
strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
2Cor.10[
3] For though we walk in the
flesh, we do not war after the flesh:[4
] (For the weapons of our
warfare are not carnal,
but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)[
5] Casting down imaginations, and every
high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing
into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;[
6] And having in a readiness to revenge
all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
Satan's covert operations
2Cor.11 [
13] For such are
false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves
into the apostles of Christ.[
14] And no marvel; for Satan
himself is transformed into an angel of light.[15] Therefore it is no great
thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness;
whose end shall be according to their works.
Matt.7[
15] Beware of
false prophets, which come to you
in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Matt.24[
11] And many
false prophets shall rise, and shall
deceive many.
[24] For there
shall arise false Messiahs / Christs and false prophets
, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch
that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Mark.13[
22] For
false Messiahs / Christs and false prophets shall
rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even
the elect.
Luke.6[
26]
Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well
of you! for so did their fathers to the
false prophet
s.
2Pet.2[
1] But there were
false prophets
also among the people, even as there shall be
false teachers among you, who privily
shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and
bring upon themselves swift destruction.
1John.4[
1] Beloved, believe not every
spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many
false prophet
s are gone out into the world.
2Cor.11[
26] In journeyings often, in
perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in
perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness,
in perils in the sea, in perils among
false brethren;
Gal.2[
4] And that because of
false brethren
unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our
liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:
Acts.20[
28] Take heed therefore unto
yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you
overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own
blood.[29] For I know this,
that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter
in among you, not sparing the flock.
It is your decision to incline
to God and have God incline to you or incline your heart to evil things
Josh.24[
23] Now therefore put away,
said he, the strange gods which are among you, and incline
your heart unto the LORD God of Israel.
1Kgs.8[
58] That he may
incline our hearts unto him, to walk
in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments,
which he commanded our fathers.
Pss.17[
6] I have called upon thee,
for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline
thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
Pss.40[
1] I waited patiently for the
LORD; and he inclined unto me,
and heard my cry.
Pss.45[
10] Hearken, O daughter, and
consider, and incline thine
ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house;
Pss.49[
4] I will
incline mine ear to a parable: I will
open my dark saying upon the harp.
Pss.71[
2] Deliver me in thy righteousness,
and cause me to escape: incline
thine ear unto me, and save me.
Pss.78[
1] Give ear, O my people, to
my law: incline your ears to
the words of my mouth.
Pss.88[
2] Let my prayer come before
thee: incline thine ear unto
my cry;
Pss.102[
2] Hide not thy face from me
in the day when I am in trouble; incline
thine ear unto me: in the day when I call answer me speedily.
Pss.116[
2] Because he hath
inclined his ear unto me, therefore
will I call upon him as long as I live.
Pss.119[
36] Incline
my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.
[112] I have
inclined mine heart to perform
thy statutes alway, even unto the end.
Pss.141[
4]
Incline not my heart to any evil thing
, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity:
and let me not eat of their dainties.
Prov.2[
2] So that thou
incline thine ear unto wisdom, and
apply thine heart to understanding;
[18] For her
house inclineth unto death,
and her paths unto the dead.
Prov.4[
20] My son, attend to my words;
incline thine ear unto my sayings.
Prov.5[
13] And have not obeyed the
voice of my teachers, nor inclined
mine ear to them that instructed me!
Isa.37[
17] Incline
thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD,
and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent to reproach
the living God.
Isa.55[
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.
Jer.7[
24] But they hearkened not,
nor inclined their ear, but
walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went
backward, and not forward.
[26] Yet they
hearkened not unto me, nor inclined
their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their
fathers.
Jer.11[
8] Yet they obeyed not, nor
inclined their ear, but walked
every one in the imagination of their evil heart: therefore I will bring upon
them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but they
did them not.
Jer.17[
23] But they obeyed not, neither
inclined their ear, but made
their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
Jer.25[
4] And the LORD hath sent unto
you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; but ye have

your ear to hear.
Jer.34[
14] At the end of seven years
let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee;
and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee:
but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined
their ear.
Jer.35[
15] I have sent also unto you
all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Return
ye now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after
other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which I have given
to you and to your fathers: but ye have not inclined
your ear, nor hearkened unto me.
Jer.44[
5] But they hearkened not, nor
inclined their ear to turn
from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.
Dan.9[
18] O my God,
incline thine ear, and hear; open
thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy
name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses,
but for thy great mercies.

Deut.30[

I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.

the LORD's side?...

Keep the commandments
( just listed in the gospels and letters )
Matt.5[
19] Whosoever therefore shall
break one of these least commandment
s, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the
kingdom of heaven: but
Matt.15[
3] But he answered and said
unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment
of God by your tradition?
[6] And honour
not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the
commandment of God of none
effect by your tradition.
[9] But in vain
they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandment
s of men.
Matt.19[
17] And he said unto him, Why
callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou
wilt enter into life, keep the commandment
s.
Matt.22[
36] Master, which is the great
commandment in the law?
[38] This is
the first and great commandment
.
[40] On these
two commandments hang all the
law and the prophets.
Mark.7[
7] Howbeit in vain do they worship
me, teaching for doctines the commandment
s of men.
[8] For laying
aside the commandment of God,
ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other
such like things ye do.
[9] And he said
unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment
of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
Mark.10[
19] Thou knowest the
commandments, Do not commit adultery,
Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy
father and mother.
Mark.12[
28] And one of the scribes came,
and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered
them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment
of all?
[29] And Jesus
answered him, The first of all the commandment
s is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
[30] And thou
shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and
with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first
commandment.
[31] And the
second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There
is none other commandment greater
than these.
Luke.1[
6] And they were both righteous
before God, walking in all the commandment
s and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Luke.18[
20] Thou knowest the
commandments, Do not commit adultery,
Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and
thy mother.
Luke.23[
56] And they returned, and prepared
spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the
commandment.
John.10[
18] No man taketh it from me,
but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power
to take it again. This commandment
have I received of my Father.
John.12[
49] For I have not spoken of
myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment
, what I should say, and what I should speak.
[50] And I know
that his commandment is life
everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me,
so I speak.
John.13[
34] A new
commandment I give unto you, That
ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
John.14[
15] If ye love me, keep my
commandments.
[21] He that
hath my commandments, and keepeth
them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father,
and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
[31] But that
the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me
commandment, even so I do.
Arise, let us go hence.
John.15[
10] If ye keep my
commandments, ye shall abide in my
love; even as I have kept my Father's commandment
s, and abide in his love.
[12] This is
my commandment, That ye love
one another, as I have loved you.
Rom.7[
8] But sin, taking occasion
by the commandment, wrought
in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. [
9] For I was alive without the
law once: but when the commandment
came, sin revived, and I died. [10
] And the commandment
, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.
[11] For sin, taking occasion
by the commandment, deceived
me, and by it slew me. [12]
Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment
holy, and just, and good. [13
] Was then that which is good made death unto me? God
forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which
is good; that sin by the commandment
might become exceeding sinful.
Rom.13[
9] For this, Thou shalt not
commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not
bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other
commandment, it is briefly comprehended
in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Rom.16[
26] But now is made manifest,
and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the
commandment of the everlasting God,
made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
1Cor.7[
19] Circumcision is nothing,
and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the
commandments of God.
1Cor.14[
37] If any man think himself
to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write
unto you are the commandment
s of the Lord.
Eph.6[
2] Honour thy father and mother;
(which is the first commandment
with promise;)
1Thes.4[
2] For ye know what
commandments we gave you by the Lord
Jesus.
1Tim.6[
14] That thou keep this
commandment without spot, unrebukeable,
until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Tit.1[
3] But hath in due times manifested
his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the
commandment of God our Saviour;
2Pet.3[
2] That ye may be mindful of
the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the
commandment of us the apostles of
the Lord and Saviour:
1John.2[
3] And hereby we do know that
we know him, if we keep his commandment
s. [4] He that
saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandment
s, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
[7] Brethren,
I write no new commandment unto
you, but an old commandment
which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment
is the word which ye have heard from the beginning.
[8] Again, a new
commandment I write unto you, which
thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true
light now shineth.
1John.3[
22] And whatsoever we ask, we
receive of him, because we keep his commandment
s, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
[23] And this
is his commandment, That we
should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as
he gave us commandment. [
24] And he that keepeth his
commandments dwelleth in him,
and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which
he hath given us.
1John.4[
21] And this
commandment have we from him, That
he who loveth God love his brother also.
1John.5[
2] By this we know that we love
the children of God, when we love God, and keep his
commandments. [3
] For this is the love of God, that we keep his
commandments: and his
commandments are not grievous.
2John.1[
4] I rejoiced greatly that I
found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a
commandment from the Father. [
5] And now I beseech thee, lady,
not as though I wrote a new commandment
unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we
love one another. [6] And this
is love, that we walk after his commandment
s. This is the commandment
, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should
walk in it.
Rev.12[
17] And the dragon was wroth
with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep
the commandments of God, and
have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Rev.14[
12] Here is the patience of
the saints: here are they that keep the commandment
s of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Rev.22[
14] Blessed are they that do
his commandments, that they
may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into
the city.
WNAH 1360 transmits to middle Tennessee and southern Kentucky.
If you would like to be part of the broadcast, just call in and dial
[15] For that which I do I allow
not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
[16] If then I do that which
I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
[17] Now then it is no more
I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
[18] For
I know that in me ( that is, in my flesh, ) dwelleth no good thing:
for to will is present with me; but how to perform that
which is good I find not. [19
] For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would
not, that I do.[20] Now if I
do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but
sin that dwelleth in me.[21]
I find then a "law", that,
when I would do good, evil is present with
me.
[22] For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
[23
] But I see another law
in my members, warring against the law
of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the
law of sin which is in my members.
[24] O wretched man that I am!
who shall deliver me from the body of this death? [25
] I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
So then with the mind I myself serve
the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
[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:[
4] That the righteousness of the law
might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the
flesh, but
after the Spirit
[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.
[6] For to be carnally minded
is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and
peace.
[7]
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God
: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed
can be.
[8] So then they that are in
the flesh cannot please 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. [10
] And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of
sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
[11] But if the Spirit of him
that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from
the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth
in you.
[12] Therefore, brethren, we
are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
[13] For if ye live after the
flesh
, ye shall die: but if ye through the
Spirit do mortify the deeds of the
body, ye shall live.
[ 7] And
it was given unto him to make war with
the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given
him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations
[11] Put on the whole armour
of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles
of the devil.
[12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places.
[13]
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand
in the evil day, and having
done all, to stand.
[14] Stand therefore, having
your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
[15] And your feet shod with
the preparation of the gospel of peace;
[16] Above all, taking the shield
of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the
fiery darts of the wicked.
[17] And take the helmet of
salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
[18] Praying always with all
prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance
and supplication for all saints;
[30] Also
of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things,
to draw away disciples after them.
[12] It is not in heaven, that
thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us,
that we may hear it, and do it?
[13] Neither is it beyond the
sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it
unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
[14] But the word is very nigh
unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
[15] See,
I have set before thee this day
life and good, and death and evil;
[16]
In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways,
and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou
mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land
whither thou goest to possess it.
[17] But if thine heart turn
away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other
gods, and serve them;
[18] I denounce unto you this
day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon
the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
[19] I call heaven and earth
to record this day against you, that I have set before
you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both
thou and thy seed may live:
[20]
That thou mayest love the LORD thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice,
and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of
thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the
LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them
.
