Those who refuse to allow the administration of the crucifixion work and ministry of the cross, after they've been saved by the salvation aspect of the cross ✝️ are the ones that stay stuck and in bondage to the lower nature and desires of the earthy Adam. TO THE MEASURE THAT YOU HOLD ON TO THE LOVE OF THIS WORLD, SHALL BE THE MEASURE THAT YOU STAY IN BONDAGE TO IT. IF YOU REFUSE TO ALLOW CHRIST TO DETHRONE YOU IN THE FLESH, BECAUSE YOU STUBBORNLY CHOOSE TO STAY IN CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE, THEN HOW CAN YOU EXPECT TO REIGN WITH HIM IN THE SPIRIT?God called us to live the higher crucified life and to fly with Him on the high winds of His Holy Spirit as glorified manifested sons after we have allowed ourselves to be conformed to His image and likeness. THE BRIDE SHALL ARISE INTO ONENESS TO BE UNITED WITH HER BRIDEGROOM IN THE HEAVENS. Jesus declared "I will cause you to dance in the clouds with My angels"Romans 85 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.FIRST THE CRUCIFIXION OF THE EARTHY ADAM, THEN WE SHALL BE TRANSFORMED AND ARISE INTO THE LIKENESS AND IMAGE OF THE HEAVENLY MAN CREATED AFTER GOD IN TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also bring to life your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you. 12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 13 For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do put to death the deeds of the body, you shall live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, so that we may be also glorified together. 18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creation waits for the manifestation of the sons of God.28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified. 1 John 2:15-17 Do not love or cherish the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself]. And the world passes away and disappears, and with it the forbidden cravings (the passionate desires, the lust) of it; but he who does the will of God and carries out His purposes in his life abides (remains) forever.Those who willingly lay themselves down in obedience to the call of Christ as they follow not themselves, but Him, in the way of the cross through laid down lives shall discover that to be raised up to dwell with Him in the realms of His glory is far better and outweighs the path of suffering to get there. Rejoice all ye pilgrims of the road of the cross, for the hour of your resurrection and glorification is come, says the Spirit of the living God. 1 Thessalonians 3 3 That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for you yourselves know that we are appointed unto this. 4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and you know.
