Holy Hubert comments about being a former Baptist

Biblical facts by Brother Hubert Lindsey

Are we accountable to God for our dreams?

No.

Christians are not accountable to God for what they dream. Here’s why. Perhaps a lustful thought runs through your mind while you are sleeping. Perhaps you dream something you feel is not right in the eyes of God. What does God think about your dreams. The Bible clearly answers that question.

Hebrews 4:12…The Word of God…is the discerner of the thoughts and intents of your heart.

In other words God knows the difference between your thoughts and your intents. In a dream there is no intention. Dreams are unwilling thoughts. The Word of God distinguishes the difference.

Benefits of the child of God

The child of God has a position in life. As a matter of fact its the highest position in life any man can ever get. The Bible describes such position as follows:

• Ephesians 2:6...And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

The reason the child of God has this position is because God's Holy Spirit gives the believer God's seal of approval:

• Ephesians 1:13...In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise

The sanctified child of God has a God given title. The title is Brethren. For this cause of Christ God is not ashamed to call them brethren:

• Hebrews 3:11...For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

Any child of God can hold a Christian office. Christian offices are many. Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, deacons, ministers, evangelists, helps, etc.

A child of God has the full assurance of hope. Hope the unsaved can never experience.

• Colossians 1:5-6..For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel;  Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit,

Any child of God has a guarantee of a contented life in this life; and a free pass to Heaven "if" they stay within the guidelines of right-standing with God.

Simple truth. Simple Christianity. All inclusive for the child of God.

What Christians are not

• Christians are not liars
• Christians are not cheaters
• Christians are not drinkers of alcohol or strong drink
• Christians are not unrighteous
• Christians are not unholy
• Christians are not stealers
• Christians are not any single denomination
• Christians are not unbelievers
• Christians are not proud
• Christians are not haters of men
• Christians are not homosexual
• Christians are not adulterers or fornicators
• Christians are not sinners

Can a Christian commit any of these above acts? Yes. Is He still a Christian if he does? No. Here’s why.

A truthful man can lie…but if he lies he is no longer a truthful man. An honest man can steal…but if he steals he is no longer an honest man. A sober man can drink strong drink or alcohol…but if he drinks strong drink he is no longer sober. The same goes for a Christian. A Christian can sin…but if he sins against God he is no longer a Christian. Christians are not sinners. Christians are not children of the Devil. Christians are children of God and born of the Spirit. Christians are holy and live right because they are “new creations” created by Christ Jesus. Christians do have and advocate for sin.

“If” Christians do sin they can confess their sins and God will pardon, forgive, and cleanse…again…but the fact of the matter is Christians don’t have to sin. They have God-given power to live and do right…All they need is to be taught right. Christians are not religious sinners or part time believers. The Bible doesn’t condone Christian’s to sin. The Bible condemns sin and so does Christ. Christians shouldn’t sin against God. Christians are saints of God born of the Spirit of God. A Christian is not ruled by sin…but by the power of Divine Grace. Grace is greater than sin. Christians are saved by Grace. Christians obey God because the power of God is greater than sin. Christians are not ashamed in the eyes of God. The heart is made clean and redeemed by the precious blood of Christ. Christians do things pleasing to God. Christians obey God. Christians are morally changed by God’s Grace. Let judgment begin with you…because Christians are not what man determines.

Christianity is determined by your faith in Christ and God’s operation upon the human soul.

1 Peter 4:16-18…if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

Grace prevails freely through faith in Jesus Christ

Man doesn't struggle to have the Grace of God. Grace doesn't come by human works. Grace is the operation of the power of God's Salvation in the human soul. Grace makes men the workmanship of God not by human works but by the finished work of Christ that flows from Calvary. Men do not struggle to obtain Grace. Grace is freely given because of your personal belief and acceptance of Christ as Lord and Savior. Under law men struggled! Under Grace men receive the blessing of Christianity..."freely".


Rom 8:32...He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

1 Cor 2:12...Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

The flesh - from a Biblical perspective

Romans 8:9...But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his

The word "flesh" in the Bible relates to the physical part of man that is controlled by the Adamic Nature. The reason Paul states "you are not in the flesh" simply implies that a Spirit filled man is no longer controlled by the Adamic Nature.
