I Can’t Talk to You

It is not that I cannot speak words or make intelligent sounds with my vocal cords. The same words I have spoken to you are easily understood by others. As I have spoken my words to you I have listened to them very carefully coming out of my mouth checking them to be clear. I have tried every word in the scales of my mind to be simple or complex with a total desire to communicate clearly with you. Yet, “I Can’t Talk to You” expecting you to be on the same page with a good response.

I have looked into your eyes watching for any recognition and signs of understanding with every sounding word traveling into your hearing. I wanted you to understand so badly that I began trying different methods to reach you. I wanted to see the light bulb of your understanding come on inside your eyes. I have tried every idea that I could possibly come up with to connect from my every day common thoughts to you like a bridge joining with equal understanding.

I searched and examined myself looking for anything that could be the cause of you not understanding the meaning of my words, thoughts, and sentences. Where could I be going wrong? What was I leaving out? Why am I not able to convey and share with you the things upon my heart? How am I not reaching you, I would ask myself. It was a torturous self examination desperately looking for answers and solutions on my side.

I understand the different levels of people’s mind. I know in a classroom there are students that are really fast, some medium, and some slow learners. I applied that understanding with more attempts in reaching your understanding. It was crucial to me for you to be on the same page as me. It is not a “belittling you” effort on my part, but a connection of understanding effort to remove the being alone feeling. I never realize how lonely a person could be in a marriage through no understanding and perception talking.

Talking is something we all learn to speak in the language we grew up in communicating with others. It is very simple to use if you have several words in your mind. A person would think “there is no loneliness” everyone talks. That is not true, just because you can talk the substance and content of the conversation that does not mean you are connecting in understanding and perception. Without the connection of understanding and perception the words in the talk come back to you empty or as nonsense.

“I Can’t Talk to You” even though your ears hear me, but do not understand what I you saying. Your words in response are far from the area of thought I am sharing. Your mind works on a completely different direction far from what I consider common sense. Your advice is completely off track and offers no real good answer. A feeling of being alone begins to saturate the spirit side of my life. The realization takes hold that “I am alone” with a partner who cannot help. If you do not understand how can you help?

No matter how hard I try using any and all methods from a variety of sources you still cannot hear me with understanding. I try and I try to talk to you, but it is like there is a wall between you and me. I have searched my own soul and I have no wall of my own. I want an open two way street of communications, but you have a wall to your own world. Your mind has a view of the world 90% from your own perspective and the other 10% is to small for you to consider. It is your world and I have tried to live in it sacrificing mine own freedom.

Why is it “I Can’t Talk to You” so important? You may think of being together is enough, working together to possess things like a house, vehicles, utilities, and other things that catches your eyes. There is whole lot more important things than material and status quo to life. The routine of daily going to work, returning home, and evening routines is all that matters matching your world according to your thoughts only. Raising children and the playing house concept is all you think there is to life, but in reality it is only a part and not the whole.

The “I Can’t Talk to You” is not the physical part of life, but the part of the inward person of thoughts, feelings, and personal goals. You can be lying right beside someone physically and still be alone spiritually. Our bodies can be interacting with the physical things of life, but the inward person needs the same connections. God has given us a spirit inside these bodies that must grow in knowledge and accomplishments. The physical body will die, but our spirit will retain everything said and done in this life for all eternity.

The “I Can’t Talk to You” is the part that sees with the eyes, hear with the ears, and the inspired thoughts with a desire to share. One tiny example of thousands of attempted thoughts: One can see a beautiful sunset with a positive observation and another can see in a negative way that there are to many clouds. The many years of attempts to connect with the same level or close to the same level can push a person to the place of finally accepting “I Can’t Talk to You” and “why try anymore“. Your mind is locked into seeing only what you want.

DYING QUIETLY and SLOWLY

I understand why some people start becoming silent as they grow older. Their answers become just a few words to satisfy the other speaking. They sit there silently in the living room occupying themselves trying to be a presence of socialism. Their thoughts have gone silent from their lips to the lonely world of their mind. They have succumb to the “I Can’t Talk to You” and to a physical routine of going through the motions of expected actions. Life becomes robotic duties fulfilling only what needs to be done and finding reasons to be truly alone. You have become just a roommate to tolerate in the home that has become an apartment.

When the sun goes down of expectations inside a person and the dreamer has lost their dream in life an empty shell develops longing for freedom to at least live life the way they want to, but only remaining because of self honor, integrity, kindness, mercy, and doing the right thing. The daily routine becomes just what is expected to maintain the existences of the possessions they have and no more looking for adult conversations. The hope of communicating resigns to the fact “I Can’t Talk to You” and expect a practical response.

A LIFE OF HOPE

The ideas of a good life vary from one person to the next. Some of the basics of most reasonable people is to find someone who completes them physically and spiritually. A person who helps them with their desires of their flesh and the desires of their mind. A balance of togetherness of mind and body is the perfect marriage. Some want a partner for their body, for security, for status quo, as a means to an end goal, for money, for bragging rights, just not to be physically alone, and many more other reasons with selfish intent.

People have the expectation whether they are conscious or subconsciously have a hope for satisfying encounters. This hope and believing is the dream or desire in the eyes and the heart that sparks the commitment in almost all of us. People see each other with a “want“. It could be I “want” you in my life or I “want” you far from me. The “want” sparks the journey to find that someone that completes you or the idea of what you think completes you.

You are excited to have someone by your side on this life journey to share completely both physically and spiritually, which is the inward person’s thoughts. It is the pinnacle of “I am not alone” anymore. This is where a “blindness” sets in not truly seeing the unknown layers and intentions of a person’s mind. You are living a life of hope in finding a true oneness relationship.

TIME OF UNBALANCE

A person goes into a relationship believing the connection will complete them and balance the needs in their life. Some may have a need for the physical, but a stronger need for sharing thoughts and ideas. Some may enter the relationship for only physical attraction and mystery. People have things in their lives with the hope someone else can answer that need. Both people in the relationship needs help from their partner with things.

We see each other as answers only to find out later we were partially correct or completely wrong. The changing someone plan goes into motion using different methods to reaching that goal. This is where you find out “I Can’t Talk to You” or “you can’t fix my needs“. The hard cold reality over a long time reveals this is out of your control and the only hope of change is in the hands God only. This is the point the dreamer loses their dreams and expectations letting them go for whatever the future may hold.

Throughout the years a person lives on the hope things will change denying the daily repeating of the actions and words of the other. The daily efforts wrapped up with belief are continually rejected to being the same as you slowly come to the conclusion “I Can’t Talk to You“. The feelings of loneliness and emptiness start rising to the surface stealing away what you thought in the beginning was a fulfilling life. You watch your dream slowly falling from the sky in your mind, heart, and soul.

Maybe, this is why grandpa and grandma did not sit next to each lost in a conversation. Maybe, this is why the only time they were in the same room was because of the children. Maybe, this is why dad was always out in the garage or out in the yard doing something all the time. Maybe, this is why they seem to be always working. How many examples can you remember that may fit the “I Can’t Talk to You“?

The “I Can’t Talk to You” can be on different levels of intellect, emotions, and attitudes, but the separation is still there. Some people actually thinks this is normal for a relationship. They have seen it in their grandparents, their parents, and try to have the same in their marriage, which you do not see or pick up on during the dating days with them. The dating days had a glow and outward shine of hope, but quickly changed after you had been captured and vowed.

WHAT DO YOU DO

The answer depends on what kind of person you are. What do you mean it “depends on what kind of person” I am? What is the level of your personal code of ethics? This is the place where you decide what is right or wrong for you to do and live with the actions you have taken. Analyzing the ramifications on the person, past the person to their family, friends, co-workers, and social media.

Are they bad enough to leave the relationship? Are they harmful enough to affect your physical and/or spiritual health? Are they over your limit to tolerate daily? If you have children you can ask the same questions with them in mind. What sacrifices do you see that would be wrong and harmful?

If they are not bad enough to leave then are you staying for the children for the purpose to try to guide them away from the traits of your partner that you don’t want them to have in their lives? Are you staying because you have a code of never quitting? Are you staying because you have no where else to go? Are you staying because you value what the Bible says above their actions? Are you staying because you feel sorry for them and it would kill them if you left and others?

At this point what you are facing is to either adapt or leave. The “bad enough” answer is at the level of physical or spiritual harms way. The not “bad enough” answer is at the level of putting a long term game plan in place for yourself. Whatever the answer may be the change of survival will need to be put in place or a drifting lost at sea without a sail will set in.

NOT BAD ENOUGH

If you answered “bad enough” to leave that is an entire subject all by itself, but you still can gleam things to do. “Not bad enough” is a survival mode that implies doing what needs to be done like two roommates renting an apartment. There will be two words that will be key to your survival. “Occupying” will be a key word along with the word “adapting“.

I don’t care how much a person goes to church, counseling, reads self helps, listens or watches advice given by others change will not come unless the person sees themselves clearly, understands perfectly, and turns on the will power of “I want to change“. Pharaoh had ten horrible plagues from God and his change was but for a moment and he slipped quickly back into his old way of thinking bringing death upon himself and others. Don’t tell me people will change because that is one hundred percent on them and God.

When you know after years of trying that this is the way they are and how they will always think to maintain your sanity sake you probably have already entered into an occupying and adapting mode. The first place I would recommend going for some relief is a deep relationship with God and His word. Start a journey of exploring His world and His word. Another thing you have to do is find an outlet to release your thoughts to someone you can talk to with a level of understanding.

Find good things to occupy yourself daily in life while you do your duties for the one at home who is disconnected to your world. Maintain a pleasing to God attitude, which brings satisfaction while doing what is right by the partner you had chosen. Search out yourself in understanding “why” you chose this partner and “how” you missed seeing their true nature while dating. The understanding will give you a solid ground of knowledge to stand on for the adapting part you must do.

Those in the “not bad enough” category face the toughest choice of life here on earth. You know divorce is not a good answer and death is not a good answer. Sacrifice is the life you are living with as time counts down your days of living here on earth not doing the things you longed to do. You are most noble in the attitude that your partner is God’s son or daughter and they can’t help the way they are or the bad choice they believe is right. This is knowledge that will help you keep your sanity and not sinning against God or others.

You are extremely blessed if you have friends to talk with who are on the same page as you. You are extremely blessed if you have someone who gets your humor and laughs freely with you. You are extremely blessed if you have someone who loves the same topics and hobbies you do. If you have any of these heed my advice and fight to keep these relationships during times of trouble and misunderstandings because they are at a reachable level of understanding with you.

Starting a prayer life with God, which is simply a fellowship time with Him, will ease the loneliness and emptiness you seek from people. Reading and listening to God’s word with a mind set of hearing something and seeing something He specifically has for you. Going to church with the same mind set of hearing and seeing something God has for you. God used a burning bush, a donkey, a rooster, and other things to get understandings across to people. Find your burning bush, your donkey, and your rooster in life God has for you to grow from.

BAD ENOUGH

The “bad enough” category is for those who have a spouse who is running around having sex with others (Mtt. 19:9 “…whoever divorces…except for formication/immorality…”) opens the Biblical divorce door of escape. Another place God allowed into His Bible to be said was if a spouse who is an unbeliever of God should depart, let him depart and you are not under bondage in such cases (1 Cor. 7:15). This scripture is more under the “Not Bad Enough” category in the sense of if the believing spouse is pleased to dwell with them then don’t divorce because the believing spouse acts as a sanctification/ for them and the children (1 Cor. 7:12-14).

There is a great deal of opinions in the world concerning these scriptures and I understand the concerns, but we must take the scriptures as much as they are without opinions of man. Some people are in real bad situations that most other people do not live with daily nor feel the sufferings they do. It is easy to preach, give advice, and judge from your recliner while not being in the situation physically.

This is where we all can present what we believe from the scriptures in kindness and love, but the choice is down to the person in the situation and talking with God making their own decision. Let a person examine themselves (2 Cor. 13:5) and “…work out your own salvation with fear and trembling” (Phil. 2:12). We all will stand before God individually and no one will be able to negotiate for us before God.

There are other abuses that warrant a divorce. I understand God will not let you suffer above what you are able to handle, but will make a way of escape (1 Cor. 10:13). There is physical and verbal abuse that could warrant a divorce. If you have any doubts of the levels of physical and verbal abuse try to get permission to do a ride along with a patrol officer and you will change your mind quickly. God has a forgiveness that surpasses all of our understandings.

LIVE AS BEST AS YOU CAN

We are in the last days God told us would come. People will love themselves more than others, greedy, braggadocios, proud, no respect, rebellious, unthankful, immoral, without natural affections, liars, false witnesses, malicious gossipers, haters of good, traitors, reckless, conceited, and lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God (2 Tim. 3:1-4). This is the condition we are in today and we have to be careful not to allow the influence to make us bitter for the already struggle that we are in.

“I Can’t Talk to You” maybe your condition with your partner, but don’t let it be with God. They maybe closed to you, but God is always open for you. This is the time of all days to try God. The tomorrows are looking rough and the time is short before God allows more things to come upon mankind such as never seen before. A personal grounded relationship God is crucial to your survival.

Things are not only happening in the world, but also in the churches. People are walking away from God listening to these lying seducing spirits believing teachings of devils, becoming voices for the lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared and separated from God. They will start with mandates, forbidding, and abstain from meat, which was a God given right to be thankful for and knowing what is the truth (1 Tim. 4:1-4).

Lock onto God and He will lock onto you from which no one can remove you from Him (Jn. 10:28). If have never tried God and His salvation you can simply follow this scripture fulfilling the born again of the water and of the spirit. “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” (Acts 2:38).

Zombies? Religious Zombies Real?

First of all, what is a zombie? The Merriam-Webster says a zombie is a will-less and speechless human creature held to believed to have died and been supernaturally reanimated…to resemble the so-called walking dead. The meaning of religious is basically someone showing a faithful devotion to a certain belief they have committed themselves into focus their life into following, but this is not for church type beliefs only, but power, wealth, and pleasures can be included. It is a status of the mind for something they desire to have. A zombie is a voodoo belief and in fictional (invented by imagination) stories that has never been proven physically real. A religious zombie is real in the sense of people who have locked their minds onto something denying all other things around them and they walk among us today, but they are not given away by their outward appearance. They seem normal, but there are things hidden in their minds and are only revealed in their actions.

ZOMBIES IDENTIFIED

This is what a zombie and religious zombie are known for and can be identified if encountered. A zombie is a dead person brought back to life without an intelligent living spirit. A religious zombie is born with life, but who are dead to other ideas, truth, and reality that does not match their ideas. A zombie has a distinguish outward appearance walking with a slant and moaning identifying the kind of being they are and a religious zombie has an outward appearance of being walking normal with a hidden inward agenda only certain people can see while others must wait for their fruits (“…ye shall know them by their fruits…” Mtt. 7:16, 20) or results to reveal them, which could take weeks, months, and years.

Zombies are brought back to life by supernatural powers by no choice being reanimated from the dead, usually an adult body. A religious zombie is born naturally as an innocent baby that develops itself into a religious zombie by choice that chooses a path in life that nothing outside their goals matter. A zombie kills people for food and a religious zombie uses people like trash for their narrow mined goal with no regard for their life and health. A zombie has no thoughts and religious zombie has a narrow minded thoughts.

Zombies have moving bodies with no mind, but to eat and religious zombies have bodies with dead thoughts in their minds with only their focus on selfish desires. Zombies do not feed their emotions, but religious zombies do. In your mind you see a zombie walking, moaning, dragging a foot with arms outstretched staggering towards a normal person on TV, but a religious zombie walks in normal with a hand outstretched and a smile with deceiving agenda.

FIRST KNOWN RELIGIOUS ZOMBIE

In the beginning of creation, one man’s gift was rejected by God while another man’s gift was accepted. The man with the rejected gift became angry and bitter. Inside his mind he started to develop a narrow minded belief that would fix that issue. The religious zombie began to form in his mind while dying out to reasoning and questioning. He did not get mad at the receiver, but at the other giver by his side. He did not analyze the difference of the gifts and how could he improve. His mind died out to reason and the religious zombie focused on death was the answer and solution.

The rejected man’s gift turned his thinking into a dead religious zombie like mindedness with death being the only answer. Never mind the other giver was his younger blood brother and his own family. Never mind there was a second chance in doing another offering. Never mind it was not his brother that rejected him, but someone else. Never mind even the receiver was concerned and asked him, why are you angry and upset. The receiver warned him that the rejection could turn into sin doing the wrong thing and you have to control it before it controls you. Sounds like a zombie with narrow mindedness. He rejected the receiver’s concern and advice. The focus became on killing his younger brother (zombie thoughts), developing into a narrow minded religious like goal a zombie would do forgetting all reasoning.

Cain was the first religious zombie in the Bible allowing his mind to die against all truth and the chance to change allowing the killer attitude to formulate a plan to kill his brother unexpectedly while in the field together (Gen. 4:1-10). There are living religious zombies throughout history and among us today willing to ignore all the harm they may cause for family and strangers just to get their idea satisfaction.

CROWD OF RELIGIOUS ZOMBIES

The fictional zombies come together for the theatrical purpose of killing the living people on TV, but the religious zombies come together for the reality purpose against those who do not fit their agenda in philosophy and action. Their minds are dead to physical proof and factual truths.

Persons in positions of power and control must be careful of that fleshly zombie like feeling and keep it under control as the “servant of the people” and not the “people are servants to them” with also “people are expendable“. The religious zombie mind dies and sees only the power as absolute power corrupting all other good thoughts absolutely. Religious zombies is a death to the mind and to reasonable thinking. How many today do you see with smiling faces outwardly, but their actions are completely selfishly for their profit and pleasure?

There was a group of leaders who loved their positions above the people and in the government. A certain man was speaking pure truth among the people and doing things that really helped the people in the streets, homes, and local churches. These leaders were worried about his popularity more than the good he was doing. They were afraid the government would come and take away their positions. These leaders agreed upon the religious zombie way of thinking blocking out all good that was done, believing an answer for this man was he must die to maintain their positions. Their minds were made up with death being the only answer and solution to their selfish needs. From that day forward they formulated a plan together focused their ideas to put him to death (Jn. 11:47-53).

The chief priests and the Pharisees put this plan into motion up to the day they influenced the crowd of their religious zombie beliefs to crucify him, crucify him, crucify him. God took their religious zombie ideas of death protecting their positions and converted into salvation for all those that believe in Jesus and that they should have a position of eternal life in heaven (Jn. 11:47-53). Their minds were dead to anything beyond their selfish desires to maintain their positions of power.

We are seeing this today in fulfillment of the predictions of the Bible. Leaders all over the world are allowing riches and power corrupt their understandings from the truth that none of this will matter in facing God in the afterlife. The Bible is not dead, but alive to all the attitudes back then are the same today just in a different technology age. We must remain alive to God’s Holy Spirit inside our minds, hearts, and souls refusing the religious zombie thoughts of deceiving evil in these last days.

BIBLE/TODAY RELIGIOUS ZOMBIES

The Bible is full of these like minded people from individuals to crowds of people. The Bible is seen as a history book to some, but the living Spirit of God shows a life in the scriptures and the same attitudes back then exits today. The spiritual attitudes are alive in the Bible that the same living attitudes today only with a different technology age. You can find yourself in the Bible and those you work with around you. There are living attitudes exactly the same as in the Bible alive today and then. People with hidden selfish religious zombie thoughts are among us.

The attitude of the kings, Pharaohs, High Priests, Caesars match the leaders of our day using the technology of their age to reach their agenda sacrificing anyone and everyone for their narrow minded death ideas. There were good kings and bad kings in the Bible. We have the same today, but in a much larger scale of people and much more ways of destruction.

FUTURE RELIGIOUS ZOMBIES ARE HERE NOW!

We are in the last days, right now during these tough and changing times, where people have made, are making, and will make themselves religious zombies towards lovers of themselves all over the internet. Died out to you, others, and only loving themselves. Some people are religious zombie as lovers of money and it does not matter who they step on or cheat to get more money. Dead in the minds of who it hurts as long as they make the killer score of more money. Some have developed in religious zombie minds that they are better than you and they have no flaws boasting with pride on TV that you must believe whatever they say because they are gods to their own facts. Let them think for you because you cannot for yourself.

Zombies in their minds blindly walking towards lies that will never fill their empty space inside their soul. All the alcohol, drugs, sex, and money will not be satisfied. The religious zombies for their goals are teaching our children their dead lies causing our kids to rebel, disobey, be unthankful, and do unnatural things behind the parent’s back who are really the ones watching over them, to provide for them as best as they can with the hopes of a better and balanced life in their children’s tomorrows. Religious zombie’s way of thinking are developed. Children and young adults are taught by these religious zombie’s dead thoughts of being without natural affection, promise breakers, malicious gossips/fake news, and promoting out of control burning businesses that have nothing to do with it. It is a horrible blindness inside the mind.

Do you see the infiltration of these dead thoughts in the minds of those who accept the religious zombie ways? Zombies maybe brutal in their mindless need to feed on TV, but they are not choosey on who is good or who is bad. They just keep coming no matter what. The religious zombie picks and chooses to hate those who are good, treacherously making their target’s good to appear to be bad and their religious zombie bad ways as good.

Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! 21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! 22 Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: 23 Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!”

The real zombies among us are those who have narrowed their focus on belief for their own pleasures and conceit having an outward form of goodness while inwardly they are dead like zombies denying the good and righteousness God meant for all of mankind to enjoy. The religious zombies are lovers of selfish pleasures rather than lovers of God’s knowledge of good. Once you become a religious zombie blocking out all other truths you become a person who seems to be ever learning, but never able to come to the knowledge of truth (2 Tim. 3:7). You are stuck in a dead loop of zombie like thoughts only seeing what you want to see changing your opinions into your own facts that are not physically matching reality.

Do you see the religious zombies among us in America, controlling states, and manipulating good common sense laws? Religious zombies have their ideas for themselves while other’s sufferings are dead to them and the carelessness as long as nothing touches them. “Rules for thee and not for me” is a religious zombie philosophy. Everyday common people go to jail right away, but religious zombies pay the money to play the system prolonging for a long time and never go to jail. One of the prophecy scriptures of our day today to read: 2Tim. 3:1-7.

WHAT THE RELIGIOUS ZOMBIES ARE MISSING

Pharaoh had 10 physically horrible plagues to visit him and the people in Egypt and because of his religious zombie like thinking he would not let the people that God was calling go. Pharaoh had a religious zombie mind set that his magicians and gods were equal with Moses and his God. His religious zombie mind was dead to reason, facts, and common sense truth until the plagues reached a level his magicians could not reproduce. His religious zombie mind held out to his own choice of words committing to the death of his own son and even after that his religious zombie thinking mind took over to kill all the people of God after he finally let them go.

What his religious zombie dead like mind was missing and could NOT accept was the fact you cannot defeat the one and True God of all. The physical evidence and facts were before him long before the final plague. In the end his refusal to believe brought death out of his mind onto the people following him and his own body that was carrying his eternal soul.

Trial and error was one of the basis of learning growing up. We all have made mistakes and have learned from most of them on how not to do them again and that is called intelligence. This is thing religious zombie minded people miss out on reality. Religious zombie minds do not learn in a normal adjusting way for the good of others, but in a form of doing better for their goal no matter the level of evil they must stoop to do it. There is nothing wrong with asking questions, researching other sources, and opening up real facts no matter the subject because if it is real truth it will stand no matter what angle you approach it. Real truth has no fear of the asking, researching, and opening up true facts.

HOW NOT TO BECOME A RELIGIOUS ZOMBIE

There are two types of religious zombies. One is a deceived into believing the dead zombie ideas with a bitter end and the other one is not deceived, but desires the selfish ideas with no care or concern of the harm it may cause to achieve it. Both can be recovered, but by only personal choice and desire to be saved. They have to have the “want” to be saved.

Listening and allowing the words of wisdom to sink deeply into your soul with questions of desiring pure untainted truth is the key on not becoming a blind religious zombie. The religious zombie is all about focusing the fleshly mind on a single idea and rejecting all other truths. How not to become a walking religious zombie is a battle for absolute truth inside your mind because real truth will stand and not fall.

There was a captain of an army who was known throughout his country and his government as a great man. This captain was strong in honor and without fear of battle. The captain contracted a fatal disease with no known cure in all the land. According to all knowledge he was going to die. The captain unaware that his mind had been infiltrated with a religious zombie death like thinking while his body was counting down to a diseased death.

The captain’s nation took prisoners of other countries and turned them into servants and slaves. The captain’s wife had a little servant maid of another country that told her mistress after hearing about the captain’s fatal disease that she wished the captain was in her country because there was a man that could cure him of his fatal disease. The word got back to the captain and the leader of his government, which told him to go to this man for his cure. The captain loaded up with silver, gold, and expensive clothes ready to pay this man for the cure.

The captain arrives at the man’s house who is going to cure him, but the man did not come to the door only sending a messenger. The messenger told the captain to go and wash himself in the river Jordan seven times and his fatal disease would be washed away. The prideful and narrow religious zombie thinking came to the surface of the captain killing all reasonable thinking. The captain was furious speaking in a rage that he thought the man would at least come out to see him, stand before him, and doing something in the name of his God to cure him. The captain went on to rant and rave there are better rivers in this other town, why can I not wash in them and be cured?

The captain was so mad he left the man’s house and the words that were spoken to him by the messenger he counted as dead and useless words. The captain’s rage and narrow beliefs of what should have been done was his religious zombie thinking restricting the pure truth and understanding why he was there in the first place – saving his life. As the captain was riding along with his furious anger seething along with his pride showing all over his face one of his servants came near him and said, “if the man had told you to do some huge task, would you have not done it? How much more if he simply said go wash and be clean?” A simple question with a reasonable task and very little cost to do it.

This is how not to become religious zombie, the captain heard the words of what to do to save his life from his servant in a listening and perceiving way. The servant’s words broke down the walls of the narrow religious zombie raging and prideful way of thinking inside the captain’s mind to the clear thinking of “you speak truth“, I would do this, and why not give it a try. The captain went down to the river Jordan and dipped himself seven times according to the man of God through his servant’s voice. The captain’s life was saved from the fatal disease coming up out of the water with fresh clean skin like as a little child baby fresh (2 Kings 5:14).

FREE YOURSELF FROM ZOMBIE THOUGHTS

You may not feel like you are strong enough, but you are with simply making the choice of seeking God. He will provide you strength in your weakness. He will give you truth if you ask Him. He will open a door when all things seem to be closed. If you develop a daily fellowship with His Spirit and His word the freedom of dead end thoughts will leave you.

The devil was the dead evil minded angel that deceived Eve into believing him against God. This is where you can free yourself from other words of people or angels by taking them to God and His word before accepting them as truth into your mind, heart, and soul. If the words do not balance in the scales of the Bible from the beginning to the end then they are dead zombie ideas trying to trick you into religiously believing them.

STEPS TO FREEDOM

The three basic temptations of lies you will face to convert over to the religious zombie ideas are: do what you need to do to sustain yourself no matter what, you are safe from harm and won’t die, and you will become powerful and rich ruling all others from on high. Facing and overcoming these temptations through the strength and power of God will set you free in this life and the one to come.

I have no fear of questions of my faith in God because I put those questions on the scales of the Word and the Spirit of God. This is what Jesus did when the devil spoke the doubt provoking words of, “…if thou be the Son of God…” trying to plant dead zombie thinking words into his mind and then picking on Jesus hungry body with “…command that these stones be made bread.” The devil used a mind attack with a reasoning of the fleshly body to try to bring Jesus down, but Jesus put the devil’s questioning and command to the word of God keeping himself free from being deceived. “…Man shall not live by bread alone…“, there is life beyond the life of our flesh, “…,but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.“

Religious zombies that walk among us challenge our identity. Are you really sure you are on the right track? You can cheat to feed yourself. There is nothing wrong with disobeying God for selfish reasons. You can hear in the words to compromise your good conscience with God. Don’t let people or spirits deceive you. Truth will always stand strong.

Again a second attempt, the devil drops his dead zombie words of death on the ears of Jesus saying, “…If thou be the Son of God…“. Stand firm on your testimony of who you are in Jesus. I am not the same person I was before being born again. You are God’s child and greater is He that is inside of you than he (religious zombies) that is the world (1 Jn. 4:4). Jesus takes the words of the devil no matter if they are even twisted from the word of God and puts them in the scales of word and the Spirit of God balancing out the absolute truth. The devil basically said to Jesus you can jump off the top of this building and the scriptures say the angels will catch you before crashing into the stone floor. Jesus gives the devil the word of God back in his face with its proper place of “…Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.“

The last attempt by the devil was showing Jesus the powerful and glorious nations of the world as a gift to him if he would simply fall down and worship him. Jesus takes those tempting words and the view the devil showed him and he placed them in the scales of God’s word and Spirit finding the truth is “…Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” Mtt. 4:4-10. God inside the man Jesus was an unbeatable force to the devil and religious zombie ideas.

The focus is not this physical world that we know is temporary, but the eternal existence after this life in one of two places. God separated the good to live eternally in one place only to experience eternal goodness and knowledge. The other place that is separated, contained, and controlled will experience eternal evil and the torture of evil knowledge like a nightmare that will never end. Jesus kept his mind and spirit focused on God’s pure will.

SPIRITUAL REFUGE FROM THE RELIGIOUS ZOMBIES

In the movies people were constantly running and looking for places of refuge to protect themselves from the zombies. This would be if it were a reality a physical place of safety to save themselves from a horrible death. Today, people do not physically see the religious zombies beside them and have no idea they need to seek refuge to protect their influential spirits. They do not see their ideas and philosophy’s of death to save themselves from a horrible eternal spiritual death. Religious zombies attacks the minds of people.

The only place of refuge for our minds, hearts, and souls are within the body walls of Jesus Christ. God came inside the man Jesus to create a spiritual fortress for all who wants to be saved from the lies of the religious zombies. There are two things that we need to escape the religious zombie ideas of this world and the destruction that is presently coming upon this world, but first we have to be in a oneness inside our spirit. Our thoughts, our will, and our desire must be one in an agreement to receive the eternal change to come upon our eternal spirit. It is a rock solid decision inside yourself of “this is what I want“.

WATER

After having a made up mind, heart, and soul surrendering fully to turn away from the sins and the evil ways of the world the two steps to heaven can be done. The first step comes in the frame of mind “I repent Lord, I’m sorry Lord, I want to change Lord” resolution. This is a repentance frame of mind. Now, you are ready to step inside the body of Jesus Christ in the “born again of water” (Jn. 31) phase. If you submerge yourself completely under water saying, “in the name of Jesus Christ” this will invoke the power of the blood in that name God placed all salvation inside it (Acts 4:12 “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.“)

This water baptism places us inside the body of Jesus Christ in a typology of dying and being buried with him (Ro. 6:3, 4) releasing us and removing of our sins (Acts 2:38). We are not completely safe yet from the influence of the religious zombies. The water baptism is not to wash our physical body like a bath, but a cleansing of our spirit giving us a good conscience (1 Peter 3:21) to receive the next phase from God – rebirth of our spirit.

Now, we are inside God’s unbreakable body of Jesus Christ covered by God’s Holy blood walls of protection and God has something else for us to combat the fleshly carnal ways of the religious zombies. Our spirit has been cleaned, but our minds need help in handling the bombardment of the religious zombies influence just like Jesus did with the devil. We need a teacher, a guide, a counselor, a friend, and a lover of our soul to show us the way while we live in this world. We don’t have the power to do it alone.

SPIRIT

The next step is allowing God to give us His spiritual power (Acts 1:8), which is known as the “born again of the Spirit” (Jn. 3:). This is a power promise to the end of the world. God promised His Holy Spirit of Power to the people in the Bible, to their children, and to ALL (key word) afar off, even as many as God shall call. This is an open end with no time limit to all generations including us today (Acts 2:39).

All you need to do to receive the power of the Holy Spirit is to start praying to God consistently getting yourself into a spiritual loving and praising connection with God trusting your spirit into the control of His Holy Spirit allowing the goose bump tingling power go all over you and inside you coming back out of your mouth like a well of water springing up (Jn. 4:14 “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.“) spiritually overflowing from your words to the God Spirit led words of praise trusting God completely to speak through you in another language that God gives you (Acts 2:4-6).

“38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.” Acts 2.

This is how God equips you to be free from the religious zombies of sin and the dead knowledge of evil. We cannot defeat them alone. It takes the power of God’s blood and Spirit to overcome the religious zombies of death and hell. These powers are at the eternal level with no comparison to earthly powers of mankind. We are born again of the water and of the Spirit inside of the body of Jesus Christ that no religious zombie can live. They try to live there, but their hypocrisy is revealed and their deeds are punished accordingly.

THE POWER OF FELLWOSHIP WITH GOD

The water baptism into the body and the Holy Spirit baptism of power into God’s Spirit is just the beginning. Imagine walking into the body of Jesus Christ like a building looking up at all the floors of books for any questions you may have, things you would like to know, and pure wisdom from God. Search engines on the internet cannot compare to the speed and truths of the Holy Spirit of God. There is a life of knowledge, power, and presence that nothing else can offer.

God has promised you His Spirit of truth to guide you into ALL (key word) truth (Jn. 16:13). I thought this was Bible truth only, but I discovered He will guide you into all truth about yourself and others. The blind spots the religious zombies try to use against you trying to make you dead to things that make you wise and smart to their devious ways will fail.

You will never be the same after having the name of Jesus applied to you and receiving the power of His Holy Spirit. The mind balance, the heart purpose, and the eternal home of heaven for the soul is a feeling full of glory and a joy unspeakable (1 Pe. 1:8). It makes a smile come from the depths of your soul to your face with a Godly glow. Fellowshipping God gives Him the opportunity to share with you His wisdom that is pure, peaceable, gentle, and easy to be given, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy (Ja. 3:17).

Don’t let the religious zombies of this world trick you into dead ideas that only benefits them laced with lies of you are doing the right thing. Give God a try through Jesus Christ and receive life giving power. My prayer is that you feel after God and find Him though He be not far from everyone of us (Acts 17:27).
