Prayer Preparation and Patience
Prayer Preparation and Patience by George R Hawtin. Few there be among the earth’s millions who can say with truth, “I know myself, for the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked. Who can know it? Jer. 17:9. Man above all else is spirit. He is not body, soul, and spirit, but spirit, soul, and body. Thus in God’s word he is always defined. 1 Thess. 5:23. But man in the darkness of his understanding has chosen the visible things before the invisible, putting the last things first and the first things last. He has placed the visible and temporal ahead of the invisible and eternal, the passing before the permanent, the earthly clay in preference to the heavenly spirit. The perishing things that belong to time he has chosen to supersede the things that belong to the eternal. Into what deceit he has fallen.
Prayer Preparation and Patience
How pitiful is to read of the vain and silly notions advanced by men of science as they vainly hope to preserve man’s mortal flesh which, should it be preserved a thousand years, would at last fade away in obscurity and vanity, for all natural things are in the end vanity and vexation of spirit. Will man in his wicked desire to live without God become so base that he will indeed endeavor to deep freeze the human body, vainly hoping to restore it in some distant century when medical science has perfected a cure for the disease that was about to cause death in that particular person? (George R Hawtin)
Those who strive for such things have never learned that man is above all else a spirit being. They have never learned that the body is but an earthly dwelling place for the spirit, which is being prepared here in the lowest parts of the earth to bear the image of the eternal and to perform ministries of light and glory in a realm where pain never stalks and where death never prowls nor raises his ugly head. In those endless realms of light, whose fadeless flowers human eye hath not seen and whose deep songs of eternal joy human ear hath not heard, the spirit enters the realm of which it was created and the place in God where it can find rest. (George R Hawtin)
“I and My Father are one.” As it was with our blessed Lord, so also will it be for all believers who through the spirit reach out beyond the corrupting powers of the flesh and the feculent powers of the age in which we live that they might become one spirit of the Father. 1 Cor. 6:17.
