This is how it became more clear to me of the sin of self works. Instead of self works, we should be focused of Yahuah Elohiym working on us and others. How can we receive improvements from Yahuah Elohiym if we only listen to ourselves?
Yes I was happy for my child. This came after years of myself being held back by that town and the churches. I know of other people that suffered also. So good news was just a statement of saying my family didn't need that community and churches. This is where I will not write a dirty laundry list of everybody's past sins and focus on on the subject Yahuah Elohiym has given me.
1. Increasing Anxiety and Depression
Constantly scrutinizing, is like saying, heads I win, tails you loose. Continually pointing out shortcomings reduces not just self esteem in others, but reduces the Spiritual Armor of Yahuah Elohiym given to all believers freely from Elohiym. Excessive focus on perceived flaws or shortcomings and not on forgiveness and healing leads to spiritual erosion. Without knowing about Yahuah Elohiym's Grace and forgiveness, we become the person of self works ourselves.
2. Damaging Fellowship
Damage to relationships occur regularly. When it happens in a church, it has generational effects. Nasty old grannies and pastors say things like, keep your ideas to yourself, at least some of us knows our parts or how can he buy a house? They also structure sermons like an arrow directed at the one person that is not part of their inside group. It goes without saying that their self works will cause the following generations of their victims not to attend church anywhere. Where is the work of the Holy Spirit in the Church? Would they recognize it if it did happen? Victims see church as propaganda to control people.
3. Paralysis of the Spirit
Mental Paralysis is struggling to organize thoughts and focusing mental energy. This leads to a feeling of being overwhelmed and unable to act. The self works of others has the results of spiritual paralysis, like a snake bite. This is where your neighbor becomes unable to process clearly on their own.
Just by always pointing out the overwhelming odds that is against your neighbor and getting them to believe they always need to come to you, they believe they are stuck or frozen in their abilities to achieve in the Church. The Truth will set you Free. Yahusha Hamashia is the Way the Truth and the Life. Self Works in the church is Antichrist. There is no Father, Priest or Teacher besides Yahuah Elohiym.
Another way where self works enslaves people is by decision overload. By pointing out your neighbor is not worthy to make decisions and to overload them with decisions, your neighbor will be enslaved and depend on the church click to have a decision made for them.
By teaching your neighbor to fear failure, then set them up for failure, the overwhelming stimuli of failure will trigger spiritual paralysis.
When you see your church neighbor having difficulty focusing, speaking, or withdrawing in church functions and they depend on you, you are probably making them an emotional slave to you. Chances are, you are going to Hell. Your father is Satan and you are a viper.
And in the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. Romans 8:26-27.
In other words, there is no reason why others need to be a master over other people and lead them around like spiritual slaves within the church. A church leader needs to serve others in a way like Yahusha Hamashia washed the feet of His Disciples. This is to say if your neighbor has a need like a branch of a tree removed, when you have the ability to remove it, do so. It also is saying be silent when your neighbor is trying to express something. Don't just shut them down with sick humiliation and point out the fact, that will cost you.
4. Building Hazards
Self works is to say avoiding your neighbor's distress. It's getting them to beg for help and then you give a candy coated nothing in return. You should be seeing your neighbor's distress and humbling yourself if needed to heal them or wait with them until healing comes.
Manipulating, controlling and empty religious practices are Spiritual abusive behavior.
Avoiding your neighbor's painful emotions, unresolved trauma, or their difficult life situations leads to your neighbor's superficial understanding of Yahuah Elohiym. Your self works sends your neighbor to Hell. Do you think Yahuah Elohiym will let you into Heaven when you yourself prevented others from entering Heaven? All spiritual Vipers go to Hell.
Keeping them Foolish
Your neighbor's lack of knowledge, you tricking them, or promoting their feelings over real facts, your neighbor will start to promote your self works. In your mind it might be a noble thing. But what you are doing could be illegal or unrighteous. This could lead to a decline in your neighbor's or your love for God. Or it could extinguish your spiritual fire. It can be a sign of spiritual danger, as it may indicate a weakening in faith or an increased susceptibility to distractions. Worldly distractions is what the devil, and one's own sin nature can use to pull you away from God and spiritual growth. These influences can lead to neglecting spiritual practices, prioritizing worldly pleasures, and becoming vulnerable to deception.
Roots of Self Wiorks
1 John 2:15-29
Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.
Self Works is of the world. Self Works might appear as godly works but it is full of corruption on the inside. If you love your works over the Work of Elohiym and it is filled with boastful pride in the image of righteousness, it is not of Yahuah Elohiym. It is only a mock up of righteousness.
And the world is passing away, and also its lusts, but the one who does the will of God abides forever. Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared. From this we know that it is the last hour.
The Apostle John may have been exiled on the island of Patmos when he wrote down 1st John. Being out of the drama of the world, his mind could see the world more clearly. The question is, who was the Antichrist in 90 CE?
Emperor Domitian nominated himself as perpetual censor and used religious, military, and cultural propaganda to foster a cult of personality around himself. He is described as ruthless. He was at sharp odds with the Senate whose powers he drastically curtailed. We know that history is repeated because Satan wants to have this type of leader and his self works ruler over a one world government. Or it could be a powerful leader in the church that is Antichrist.
They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for if they were of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out, so that it would be manifested that they all are not of us. But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know.
All through history the church has had many divisions do to corruption or purification. But it is the church that has been anointed by the Holy Spirit that is the True Assembly of Yahusha Hamashia. The question is, how can we recognize this Anointing? If we are anointed by the Holy Spirit, we will start to act like and show what the Holy Spirit is. We will produce the Fruit of the Holy Spirit also. Self Works is not fruit of the Spirit.
The Spirit of Yahuah will rest on Him,
The spirit of Wisdom and Understanding, The spirit of Counsel and Might, The spirit of Knowledge and the Fear of Yahuah. Isaiah 11:2
These are the seven Spirits of the Holy Spirit. Next us the fruit of the Spirit.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23
In Self Works, all these things are not apart of your life.
I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie is of the truth. Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.
If there is deception in what you believe or doing, it is self works. If Yahusha is not part of your life, it is self works. If your life is all about your self works, your father is Satan. Yahusha said , pay onto Caesar what is Caesar's and to Elohiym what is Elohiym's. In other words, yes go about your life, but also have eternal Life in Yahusha Hamashia. Use discernment to manage them correctly.
Everyone who denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let that which you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.
Unbelievers don't understand abiding in Elohiym and Elohiym in them. From a scientific point of view, your consciousness in your body is occupied by Elohiym at the same time. But it goes farther than that. It's also the unseen Spirit abides together with the Spirit of Yahuah Elohiym. This is the connection to communicate with Yahuah Elohiym in Heaven.
And this is the promise which He Himself made to us: eternal Life. These things I have written to you about those who are trying to deceive you. And as for you, the anointing whom you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you. But as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as He has taught you, abide in Him. And now, little children, abide in Him, so that when He is manifested, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming. If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone also who does righteousness has been born of Him.
Having heard Yahuah Elohiym's voice and Word, I don't shrink away from other people speaking about Yahuah Elohiym. I do shrink away from people who are full of their selves. At times they passed through three different things they talk about before there is an opening to say something. Then it's like your thoughts are outdated or unwanted. By abiding in the same Elohiym, Yahuah Elohiym is the regulator of the conversation.
As I was editing this blog, a thought came to me. Unbelievers never witnessed Yahuah Elohiym manifest Himself Spiritually to them. They simply don't understand. The closer we become to Him, we receive a better clearer experience of Him.
Groomed to fulfill dead people's Self Works
I quote, ""Psychological grooming is a manipulative process in which an abuser builds a relationship with someone, often a child, young person or vulnerable adult, to gain their trust and compliance in preparation for abuse or exploitation. The abuser aims to establish control and secrecy to prevent the victim from disclosing the abuse."
This quote would be going to far from what I am referring to. What I am referring to is just short of that where no crime is committed. It would be still a manipulative process. Instead of an abuser, it would be more of a manipulation. The lines between family or church traditions and psychological enslavement are blurred. The steps would be similar to Stockholm Syndrome. They are, fear and anxiety, feeling powerless, fulfilling the manipulator's desire, false justification of the manipulator and turning all negativity towards yourself. We must use discernment between false justification of the manipulator and honoring leadership that is above us.
Then there is also the reverse of psychological enslavement that is psychological lawlessness. This ends up in chaos. It disrupts the social order of a relationship and can negatively impact various aspects of life. At times psychological enslavement and psychological lawlessness happens simultaneously. That would be the Spirit of Antichrist.
This would be the backstory of the problem. A simple illustration would be when a parent died, you still find yourself directing punishment towards yourself and humanizing the memories of the parent that passed away. But yet there are memories of them rejecting you in favor of someone else. If you then continue in their socal method, you are then keeping alive some ancestor's Self Works upon yourself. To break the cycle, you must find forgiveness and change through Yahusha Hamashia called Jesus Christ.
Then there is the reverse of Yahusha Hamashia. This is called Antichrist. The beginning of Antichrist is the fallen Cherub Heylel BenSahar. It is his Self Works that caused the dysfunction and the distraction in social relationships today. Greed causes anger, anger causes death. All of Society today is groomed to steal, kill and destroy and yet humanize the people that are guilty of causing it. But then if you dehumanize the guilty, that too would be stealing, killing and destroying
This isn't a call to abandon your's or your parent's hopes and dreams for you. A good parent would be happy that their child prospered in life, even if it involved moving away. When Self Works becomes your God, it will lead you to dysfunction in some way. Believing in Yahusha Hamashia, this will give you a way to understand the unseen and understand the unknown.
