The Great War: Spirit vs Flesh
Them That Walk After The Flesh
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
Kepha SHENIY (2 PETER) 2:10
—————
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh
Not merely after the dictates of corrupt nature, as all men, and even YAHUAH’s elect do, in a state of unregeneracy; but “after strange flesh”, as (Jude 1:7) expresses it, after the flesh of men:
————
Even as Cedom and Amorah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
YAHUDAH (JUDE) 1:7
——————
in the lust of uncleanness;
not of fornication and adultery, but of sodomy, and sodomitical practices; sins exceeding great, not only contrary to the law and light of nature, but dishonorable to human nature; and are what prevail where idolatry, infidelity, errors, and heresies do; and which, as they are sins of the deepest dye, deserve the greater damnation, and are chiefly and more especially punished by YAHUAH with great severity:
and despise government:
of parents, to whom these proud boasters and blasphemers are generally disobedient; and of masters, pretending it to be contrary to their Netseriym or Qodeshiym liberty; and of magistrates on the same account, and as being a restraint upon their lusts; which is to despise the ordinance of YAHUAH, his representatives, and to introduce anarchy and confusion, and to open a door to all manner of sin; and also the government of YAHUSHA The Messiah, as head of the Assembly, and King of Tsiyon (Zion), whom they will not have to reign over them, and therefore reject his laws, and submit not to his ordinances; and likewise the government of the world itself by YAHUAH; and so the Ethiopic version renders it, “despise their Creator”; denying his omniscience and his providence, giving out that he neither sees, observes, and takes notice of what is done in the world; nor does he himself do either good or evil, or concern himself about what is done by men.
Presumptuous [are they];
bold and daring, not fearing to speak against men of the most exalted character on earth, and against YAHUAH himself in heaven; see (TEHILLIYM (PSALMS) 73:8-9).
————
They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walks through the earth.
TEHILLIYM (PSALMS) 73:8-9
————
Selfwilled;
pleased with themselves, and their own conceits, their dogmas and opinions, with their high sense and profound judgment; and being obstinate in their sentiments, and resolutely bent to retain and defend them.
They are not afraid to speak evil of dignities;
or “glories”; of the Talmidiym (Disciples), who were set in the first place in the Assembly, and were the glory of Messiah, (QORINTIYM RI’SHON (1 CORINTHIANS) 12:28) (QORINTIYM SHENIY (2 CORINTHIANS) 8:23) ; or of angels, styled thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers; or rather of civil magistrates, set in high places, and to whom glory and honour are due; which to do is contrary to the law of YAHUAH, and of dangerous consequence, (SHEMOTH (EXODUS) 22:28) (QOHELETH (ECCLESIASTES) 10:20).
—————
And YAH has set some in the assmebly, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
QORINTIYM RI’SHON (1 CORINTHIANS) 12:28 Eth
Whether any do inquire of Titus, he is my partner and fellowhelper concerning you: or our brethren be inquired of, they are the messengers of the called out assemblies, and the glory of MASHIACH.
QORINTIYM SHENIY (2 CORINTHIANS) 8:23
You shall not revile the elohiym, nor curse the ruler of your people.
SHEMOTH (EXODUS) 22:28
Curse not the king, no not in your thought; and curse not the rich in your bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which has wings shall tell the matter.
QOHELETH (ECCLESIASTES) 10:20
