Jesus says: "I can of mine own self do nothing. As I hear (from God) I judge." John 5:30

Dr. Joan Boney, Jesus Ministries ...

We should be exactly the same as Jesus.  We should understand that of our own selves we can do nothing.  We hear from God the Father through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us and we learn to follow THAT Word.



John 14:26  



But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.



John 16:13



Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear (from God), that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.



We recognize the thoughts that are from God by the following:



James 3:17  But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.





But if we are in envy and strife there is confusion and every evil work.  James 3



We must give up the envy and strife through repentance and prayer.



Psalm 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.



Antichrist in the churches thinks he can do the works of God by his own wisdom and he does not call on God for wisdom concerning his plans, for he is opposite to God and thinks of himself to be able to do spiritual things.
