Flesh (Black color) vs Flesh (White color) or The Righteous (The Light, Holy Spirit) vs The Wicked (The Rulers of the Darkness of this world)

Remember Satan is the master of deception.  So what you are seeing is to distract you from the truth.  We that are spiritual and practice righteousness must remember this is a spiritual warfare going on.


Matthew 24 (KJV)

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers (several) places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Ephesians 6 (KJV)

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles (devious or cunning stratagems employed in manipulating or persuading someone to do what one wants.) 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.

2 Timothy 3 (KJV)

1 This know also, that in the last days perilous (full of danger or risk.) times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous (having or showing a great desire to possess something, typically something belonging to someone else.), boasters, proud, blasphemers (To speak of (God or a sacred entity) in an irreverent, impious manner.) disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers (One who violates a truce, covenant, or engagement.), false accusers, incontinent (lacking self-restraint; uncontrolled.), fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady (unstable), highminded (having or showing high, exalted principles or feelings.), lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers (many) lusts,

7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

Matthew 10 (KJV)

16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

Psalm 58 (KJV)

3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

Some are born to wicked!

Psalm 56 (KJV)

1 Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.

3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

REMEMBER, Be Courageous and Strong

Psalm 56 (KJV)

11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

Jeremiah 17 (KJV) 

7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.



WHAT SHOULD WE DO?

Ephesians 6 (KJV)

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt (encircled) about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod (cover) 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:

Romans 10 (KJV)

1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.

4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend (fly, soar, raise) into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

The above (v. 9) is taken out of context.  Just what Satan wants.  The Master of Deception.  People are deceived if they believe that this is all it takes.

[Paul was speaking to Christians.  Jesus' death would be in vain if this was meant for non-believers (those not baptized).  If all we had to do was this, Who would go to Hell? Why would Jesus have to die on the cross?  What's the reason for mercy and grace?]  Read more on this by clicking on this link

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!

16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.
19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.
20 But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest (clearly shown) unto them that asked not after me.
21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying (resisting) people.

Believing means to obey. ~ Karmen

Ephesians 6 (KJV)

4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition (an act or action of admonishing; authoritative counsel or warning.) of the Lord.

5 Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;

6 Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers (people pleasing); but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
7 With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:

8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.

9 And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect (favoritism) of persons with him.
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles (lure, entice) 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.

Do not take it personal.  Those who are coming at you with negative energies or those who are froward (difficult to deal with).  Remember we are only visitors here on earth.  The fight is not with the person, but the sinful nature.  We live in a dark and wicked domain as well, that works against our spirit.   We have to wear our armor;  the Holy Spirit, to protect us from the wickedness of this dark world. ~ Karmen

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt (encircled) about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod (cover) 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:

Hold on to the truth, be full of righteousness.  Always be prepared to hold your peace.  Shield yourself with your faith because their will be all types of wickedness hurled your way.  Know you are wearing God's Crown of Glory at all times.  Carry the Bible with you at all times ~  Karmen

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication (the action of asking or begging for something earnestly or humbly.) in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication (the action of asking or begging for something earnestly or humbly.) for all saints;

Always Pray!!!  Especially during those times you are tempted to respond with the sinful nature....pray for your Sisters and Brothers in Christ as well; for they too may be tempted to answer with worldly speech.  Pray for perseverance for yourself and all Christians!  Pray earnestly! ~ Karmen

19 And for me, that utterance an uninterrupted (chain of spoken or written language.) may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
