God is a Spirit

Except ye be born again , ye can not inherit eternal life

The physcial existance is like scaffolding around the spirit, we are held here in this physcial realm to experence all of the things we experence;   The hurts  and illnesses; when we cry out for relief, the joys that seem to satisfy our natural but never satisfy the soul.   We should strive to grow our spirit into God's spirit;  but, being ignorant of this we are constantly building on the scaffolding. From the day we are born to the day we die  we are  arranging our life as to make it suite us;; getting a better education, a better job, a better earthly house, a better car, a better marrage, a better understanding of what we think is important ;  religion, friendship,  being healthy, being a good wife or husband, being a good child, a good student, being civic minded, being generous. The only trouble with all of these good things, is that we think we know what good is. That was born in us to think more highly of ourselves than we should and to think we know good from evil ,  then we try to live up to our understanding as to what we think we should do,    when god wants us, to seek after him in the spirit.
   God wants us to be concieved of the spirit so that we become aware that there is a stirring within us that is of God.   How many of you even think of what God wants of you, let alone asking God what he wants you to do with your life?  even about the minute things in life.    The Scriptures read wither you stand up or lie-down wither you eat or drink , do all to the glory of God (which means to do all in the will of God) This is how you grow in the spirit, this is how you change from darkness to light. We are in darkness and don't know it!   the same as a man blind from birth is.    We stumble around making our  mistakes, and having to learn from them over and over again, always learning but never coming to a knowledge of the truth: The truth, that God is real and his spirit kingdom is what we must except sooner or later.  After being conceived by the spirit of God we must grow which takes a lifetime - never give up,  keep striving,,, for "His power can make you what you ought to be, His blood can cleanse your heart and make you free , His love can fill your soul and you will see,  it's best for him to have his way with thee."  When time and space have lost their savor for you, you will be born again but of the spirit;   praise His holy name, my soul does rejoyce in this knowledge.   And you should also for this is for  each and every one of you also .
