Romans 5 continuing & Teaching by JP

We started today with a bit of scripture, a bit of a tale, and then JP began to teach on the design of angelic warfare.

When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam's sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. Yes, people sinned before the law was given. But i was not counted as sin because there was not yet any law to break. Still, everyone died -- from the time of Adam to the time of Moses--even those who did not obey an explicit commandment of God, as Adam did. Now Adam is a symbol, a representation of Christ, who was yet to come. But there is a great difference between Adam's sin and God's gracious gift. For the sin of this one man, Adam, brought death to many
When you or I are in this world and we are not yet living in salvation, we have an IDENTITY OF SIN. Greek "hamartano". This identity of sin also has AN IDENTITY OF **ENEMY OF GOD**.

SALVATION = an identity of CITIZEN OF GOD
PROTECTION = the gift that God gives to those who walk in His ways.
THE LOVE OF GOD is not conditional, but the GIFT OF SALVATION IS!!!

A person can receive the gift of salvation and with it the identity of Citizen of God, BUT not walk in the ways of God and as a result, not have protection. This same person can have a change of heart because of Holy Spirit conviction, renew the connection of salvation, begin to walk in the deliverance that comes from salvation, and NOW the protection of God is felt much greater because their WALK IS IN CHRIST and not miles away from it.

This "renewing the connection of salvation, walking in deliverance that comes from salvation, and greater protection"

IS THE SHARE/ABILITY TO HAVE that the person WON'T have if they are in sin / hamartano.

Having the ability to testify before a judge is to HAVE A SHARE. martyria

Having sin in your life is to NOT HAVE A SHARE
hamartano

IN the Greek, "ha" or "ah" is considered short form for ALPHA as in the "ha" in alpHA. Anything that has this sound it means an opposite to another word.

"martyria" means to have a share/ability to stand in the gap for others, to repent on your own life, to repent on behalf others, and to walk in the design of one who would rule from the Court of Heaven.

Comparatively, HAmaratano is, in this particular comparison, the inability to stand in the gap for others, to repent on your own life, to repent on behalf of others, and to be denied access into the Court of Heaven.

Many people believe that when God loves you, it means that change is going to happen.

God, in this idea, loving the whole world and all angels, it means that change of the demons will happen.

What this idea neglects is that demons/fallen angels do not have the ability/design of free will. As a result of not having free will, they also do not have the choice of which master they serve.
