Greetings Kingdom Citizens
In this world there are two creatures, an old creature and a new creature. Now as for mankind this old creature is indebted to death and the new creature to life. But the problem we have is in these times it is hard to see the difference between the two. We have the new creatures still acting like the old ones and the lost wondering why should I even bother to learn about Christ when I see you acting just like me. Well in this very intensive look, we are going to deal with both creatures and understand and see a clear and distinct picture between both of them.

Now before we deal with the old creature we must understand the original creature. Let’s see what the original creature was designed to do. Look at Genesis 1:26. The original creature was a man with the Holy Spirit administering God’s Will and exercising dominion over the Earth. This creature was in the image and the likeness of God Himself. All He knew was good. He listened to God and obeyed him. He had a relationship with God and conversed with Him daily. He was a King on Earth and a Priest on the Earth. He was in charge of paradise or Heaven on Earth. All of his needs were met and provided by God.

But when mankind was tricked in the garden, mankind lost the Holy Spirit, dominion, paradise and the Kingdom. Because of the lust of their eyes and a lack of judgment, mankind committed sin or rebellion against God and because of that His Spirit, which is a Holy Spirit cannot live in an unholy container or body. So when we look at Genesis 3:7. Once they sinned they realized they were naked and sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons. Now this may seem small but it is the major problem we have today. When mankind lost the Holy Spirit and the Kingdom, mankind became selfish, concerned about getting their needs met by their own means. No longer did they depend on God, but they feared not having their needs met and search for a way to meet them. Mankind was concerned about protecting themselves, feeding themselves and clothing themselves. Because there was no Holy Spirit they no longer could administrate God’s will on the Earth and they lost the connection to Heaven.

This is the foundation of the old creature, everything we will talk about up unto we discuss the new creature will be based off of this foundation. This series is meant to challenge not your words you speak but the life you live. Is it holy, righteous and pleasing to God? Is it a representative of His Kingdom and the fruits of His Kingdom? Get ready to read and re-evaluate your life.
