THE MINDING OF THE FLESH, BRINGS FORTH DEATH, BUT THE MINDING OF THE SPIRIT, BRINGS LIFE(Sub-title; Life everlasting)

 Romans 8:1-9 states:

8 Therefore, those in union with Christ Jesus have no condemnation.+ 2 For the law of the spirit that gives life in union with Christ Jesus has set you free+ from the law of sin and of death. 3 What the Law was incapable of doing+ because it was weak+ through the flesh, God did by sending his own Son+ in the likeness of sinful flesh+ and concerning sin, condemning sin in the flesh, 4 so that the righteous requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us+ who walk, not according to the flesh, but according to the spirit.+ 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh,+ but those who live according to the spirit, on the things of the spirit.+ 6 For setting the mind on the flesh means death,+ but setting the mind on the spirit means life and peace;+ 7 because setting the mind on the flesh means enmity with God,+ for it is not in subjection to the law of God, nor, in fact, can it be. 8 So those who are in harmony with the flesh cannot please God.

9 However, you are in harmony, not with the flesh, but with the spirit,+ if God’s spirit truly dwells in you. But if anyone does not have Christ’s spirit, this person does not belong to him. 10 But if Christ is in union with you,+ the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 If, now, the spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, the one who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead+ will also make your mortal bodies alive+ through his spirit that resides in you.

  In light of these verses,  one has to face a cold reality!  I started this blog, thinking it was not going to be too difficult to persuade one to break free from porn addiction.  However, I never considered the fact that some might have gone beyond viewing the images to living or participating in pornographic acts.  No doubt, that will make it more difficult to break free, but not impossible!  Sorry, I can't offer any advice in that matter, my addiction never advanced that far, before I found God's word, but with any addiction, one must be willing to try.  Recently, I had to live with a relative with such a lifestyle and he thinks something is wrong with me, for not wanting to take advantage of as many females and enjoy the pleasers of them, in every way.  However, he claims to be a God-fearing man.  In the promotion of true love over lust, I will respectfully wait until I get another wife.  Giving free rain to fleshly desires can lead only to destruction.

   More recently, because of exposing the devil's hand in corrupting people to indulging our selves in the sins of the flesh, Satan incited some of my own relatives to attack and destroy my own marriage, and nearly destroying my faith in God as well, because, in order to stop them from destroying my marriage, I was very tempted to commit murder.  However, through much soul-searching, and prayer, decided to just send emails to try to reason with them, to no avail.  It's a no-brainer that I'm better off alone than locked up in jail for murder, 3 counts thereof!

   One that is granted everlasting life, wakes up one day in a peaceful new world, where such injustices will never exist anymore.  True love will cover the earth.  No one will be using one's body in the wrong way.  God's command to be fruitful and become many, and fill the earth will be on its way to its proper fulfillment, but only with righteous humans.  In conclusion:  Genesis 1:27, 28 states:. 

 27 And God went on to create the man in his image, in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them.+ 28 Further, God blessed them, and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth+ and subdue it,+ and have in subjection+ the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving on the earth.”

 George:  "In reference to the billions of dollars in question, that is connected to the underworld; be it drugs, guns, sex trafficking, human trafficking, pornography, child pornography, black market babies, and no doubt money laundering, is closely following!"

Susie:  "Wow, you really go into a deep meditation, don't you?"

George:  "A bit!"  "Enough for now, let's go to bed."  "We have much planning before we get started on this case."  "We first need to find out how this cheating husband is connected to the underworld and go from there."

Susie:  "Agreed!"  Susie helps him up the stairs, as usual,, and helps him to bed, and just makes it to her bed before she gets too low on power.  After fully charged, a new memory file is accessed;  "Detective Training."  Then she begins to dream!

TO BE CONTINUED:

As she dreams, she pays close attention to the stories of Sherlock Holmes, and other great detective stories dealing with deductive reasoning.  finally, morning came and they were at the breakfast table:

George:  "Moring my child, and how was your detective training?"

Susie:  "Very educational, and interesting!"  "Why the fascination with detective stories?" "There seems to be more devotion to fiction writing than to non-fiction!?"

George: "True!"  "However, isn't it obvious, that after the rebellion in the Garden of Eden, Justice has eluded us so that it has always permeated our thoughts and our dreams to the point many stories have been written about it, down to this day!"

Susie:  "I agree!"  "It was unavoidable!

George:  "Let's begin!"  "What did you deduce about the case of the cheating husband?"  "How did you surmise his connection to the underworld?"

Susie:  "It was obvious because each time, he had encounters with 7 different women at the same time."  "Soon afterward, those same women were not in the country for a while, then suddenly after nine months they were back."  "Also, pryer to their return, 7 direct deposits of  $10,000 showed up in his bank account, just like clockwork."  "It's clear, he is the sperm donor, and the women, are the hosts of the black-market babies!"

George:  "Elementry Watson!"

Susie:  "Right!"  "Hey!" "Why do I have to be Watson?"  "You think maybe we can take turns, and sometimes I can be Sherlock, and you be Watson sometimes?"

George:  "For what purpose?" "You have no ego to bruise!"  "Why would you make such a request?"

Susie:  "I agree, I am being a bit petty ain't I?"  "I must be picking up bad attitudes from my boyfriend's fishing buddies, I guess!"

George:  "Is that so, or are you just making an excuse for your actions?"

Susie:  "I had not thought of it like that!"  "Perhaps it means I'm becoming more human?"

George:  "Perhaps, but we will hash this out later."  "Let's finish the job for now."  "Good job with the deductive reasoning, but what is the connection with the Notzi's?"

Susie:  "Right now, I don't seem to have a clue!"  "Perhaps your counterpart was just pulling your leg?"

George:  "It's possible, but let's set up some surveillance around his favorite love-nest to see what turns up!"

Susie:  "Right boss!"

George:  "You did realize you called him your boyfriend?"  "Has your relationship progressed?"

Susie:  "Not the way you would think, but I'm not complaining, I'm making money!" 

 "I get 50% from all of his friends and I have saved up over 2000 dollars so far!"

George:  "Sounds good Susie!"

As they set up the equipment and deployed the smart listening devices, then the Nazis 

showed up!

 George:  "I feel you on that, but duty calls we got to go."  As George and Susie drive home, they talk as usual.

George:  "How was your last date?"

Susie:  "It was a blast, until some, or all of his fishing buddies he brought along, could not stop touching my butt, but it got better, when some of them, about 5 of the thought they were going to run a train on me!"  

George:  "Don't tell me, they all ended up in the water with the fish!?"

Susie:  "You Don't Know!?"  "You bet after I bruised them up a bit!" "Those Kung Fu chips make me a bad mother, shut my mouth!"  She said as they began to laugh until they cried until they pulled into the driveway.

TO BE CONTINUED:

By the time they pulled into the driveway.  Suddenly, a flash of light almost blinded them, and the image of the head of George, from the past, appeared in front of the garage door.  Then George said:

George:  "Not you again!?"

Susie:  "There goes the neighborhood again!"

Counterpart:  "Yes, the splinter is back!"

George:  "Why are you doing this?"  "State your business!?"

Counterpart:  "Believe it or not I have both our best interests in mind."

Susie:  "I will bet!"

George:  "Quiet Susie, let's hear him out!?"

Counterpart:  "Thanks, and I am so touched!"  "My business is Quite simple!"  "The P. I. Case, you are about to work on has some unexpected elements attached to it, and the one behind the organization in control, makes billions a year, off of the cluster of cash cows in question."  "So watch your caboose?" "Trust me, I have learned my lesson about trying to do away with those people."  "I am the aggressive side of you, and sometimes you are going to continue to receive warnings from me, like an added extension to your conscious."

George:  "Well, that is one exceptional report!"  "Anything else?"

Counterpart:  "No!, except, Hail Hitler!"  "he, he, he!"

George:  "Not funny!"

Counterpart:  "Not meant to be!"  "I'm out your hair, but I'm sure you have not seen the last of them."  "That's all I got, got to go!"  Then the signal faded and he vanished as the time-gravity-well closed.

Susie:  "Do we trust him?"

George:  "Not certain!?"  "However his reasoning is sound, for there were some things about the case that was nagging my conscious."  "As master Yoda would say: Meditate on this, I will!"  "Let's go inside and eat some more fish, I'm a bit hungry!"

Susie:  "He, he!"  "Yes!"  As they went into the house and got everything ready.  They sat down to eat and talk as usual.

Susie:  "Some painful memory files have opened with, references to betrayal, things incidental to youth!"

George:  "Yes, my wife reviled some confidential talk, obviously to her kids, about a weakness of mine."  "Instead of just doing her job at home, she complained to them about it."  "Instead of just protecting me from anything that might cause me some problems, they made sure someone would cause me a problem."

Susie:  "DeDreamer!"  "Right!"

George:  "Yes, but let's change the subject"  "Have too many bad memories behind this!"  

Susie:  "Okay."  "what has your meditation turned up about your new P. I. case?"

George:  "In reference to the billions of dollars in question, that is connected to the underworld; be it drugs, guns, sex trafficking, human trafficking, pornogrophy, child pornogrophy, black market babies, and no doubt money laundering, is closely following!"

Susie:  "Wow, you really go into a deep meditation, don't you?"

George:  "A bit!"  "Enough for now, let's go to bed."  "We have much planning before we get started on this case."  "We first need to find out how this cheating husband is connected to the underworld and go from there."

Susie:  "Agreed!"  Susie helps him up the stairs, as usual,, and helps him to bed, and just makes it to her bed before she gets too low on power.  After fully charged, a new memory file is accessed;  "Detective Training."  Then she begins to dream!

Last time on: Short Stories and Poems Presents! A NEW FANTASY LOVE STORY. (Sub-title: Victoria's wedding)

 George:  "I'm not mad, I'm very proud of you!"  "My little girl is growing up."

Susie:  "You expected this?"

George:  "Of course, I did design you, don't you remember what I said to you on your birthday."  "Know way you could ever disappoint me."

Susie:  "Yes, I do!''  "That is it, all the fish are clean, and that reminds me he wants us to go fishing on our date, test out my fish finder thingie."  "What's with you men and being a bass master?"  "Is it some kinda macho thing!"

George:  "You better believe it, Susie!"  "Put these away, and I'm going to prep and deep-fry the rest."

Susie:  "Ok papa!"

TO BE CONTINUED:

George:  "Ok, dear let's sit down and eat!?"

Susie:  "Wow!"  "How did you know that I would want to try some of this fish?"

George:  "It was obvious by your facial expressions, and mannerisms, that your appetite for fish, has been awakened."  "Even while we were cleaning the fish, I could tell you would be wanting some."  "It is also a high source of energy for your matter-energy converters, which transfers organic matter into battery power for your power cells."

Susie:  "Oh, so that is why my sensors are going crazy!"

George:  "Yes dear, let's dig in and clean up and get to bed."  "We have a big day tomorrow."

Susie:  "Yes, Victoria's wedding!"  "Mmmmm!"  She said as she bit into the fish, and George noticed the look of ecstasy on her face and was so pleased that her programs were working so fine, and said:

George:  "Excellent!" "Your programs are working good."  "You should feel your power cells charging immediately." "It's a fail-safe, for when you might be stranded somewhere where you can't recharge your power cells normally."

Susie:  "Mmmm!"  "Is it supposed to taste so good, be so stimulating?"

George:  "Yes, dear!"  "You are programmed to mimic human behavior almost perfectly"

Susie:  "Outstanding!"  "Does that mean that something else is going to be just as exciting? " 

George:  "You better believe it, Susie!"

Susie:  "Will you please try it with me tonight, I can't wait for my date to get interested?"

George:  "No dear, you know what I told you."  "When I start a new relationship, it will be with a real woman!"

Susie:  "Awh!"  "Just a little bit!?"  She said, with a silly grin.      

George:  "Susie, stop, you know we have developed a father-daughter relationship already, and plus, I have something much more special planned for your sexuality."  "However, I would like for you to continue to date as you please, for now."

Susie:  "Right papa."  "I calculate that one more piece of fish will get me to full battery power."

George:  "No, just use what power you have to finish your work for today, then let your bed finish charging you to full capacity."

Susie:  "Okay papa!"  As Susie works, she notices a new program has come available; "DREAMS OF INTIMACY", so she was anxious to lie down and see what dreams may come.  Finally, she finished and lay down and when she reached full capacity, she began to dream of her and the man she was dating, and it was so wonderful that she woke up singing and George woke up noticed her voice ringing through the house, and smiled thinking about how good her singing programs had developed.  Later at the wedding:

Justice of the Peace:  "I now pronounce you, man and wife!"  "Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Hauns Donovan!"

George:  "Congratulations you two!"

Hauns:  "Thanks, and thank you for standing in for my best man at the last minute, you were Johnny-on-the-spot!"

George:  "Was a privilege!"

Victoria:  "Yes Thanks George, that was so sweet of you at such short notice!"

George: "Don't mention it, I really love you two as a couple."  "Well me and Susie have to get ready for a P.I. case, we just got a new client."

Victoria:  "Okay sugar, and thanks for the fish!"  "I passed by the chapping dish, and the smell nearly put me into labor, and we are not even pregnant yet!"

George:  "Are you sure!?"

Victoria:  "Oh stop, George!"  "Get out of here, and do your money thing, and have fun, as always."  "When are you going to start enjoying your retirement?"  "You always seem to be on the job!"

George:  "I don't know, I guess when we are living in a perfect world!"

Hauns:  "We are all looking for that day"  "Even with the time-travel tech, I'm still a bit stressed!"

George:  "I feel you on that, but duty calls we got to go."  As George and Susie drive home, they talk as usual.

George:  "How was your last date?"

Susie:  "It was a blast, until some, or all of his fishing buddies he brought along, could not stop touching my butt, but it got better, when some of them, about 5 of the thought they were going to run a train on me!"

TO BE CONTINUED:

As the debates continue, the FBI gives a statement at a press conference:

Chief Director FBI:  "Our teams are tried and true, and well trusted"  "Already we have seen positive results, Mob gangs have called a truce and switched to none-lethal weapons, and having their talks about going legit, and even turning to religion, and it is fitting, for this technology is truly a blessing from God and a sign that he is ready to take back his planet!" "Hallelujah!" "Cold case rooms are empty, and wrongly tried cases have been reversed, and the only cases that are not solved are the ones that have not happened yet!"   "Any Questions?"  The press crowd was speechless. All they could do is give a standing ovation, as tears of joy streamed down everyone's faces.  "It's a brave new day!"  As the press conference breaks up George and Susie talk as they drive home:

George:  "Any thoughts about all of this, my dear?"

Susie:  "No, nothing but mission accomplished!"  "We are lean, mean, butt-kicking machines!"

George:  "Calm yourself dear and mind your modesty!"  "We don't deserve any credit."  "We are simply tools of the High God."

Susie:  "Right papa!"  "We did do a good job though?"

George:  "Yes!"  "Excellent!"  "However, the most important thing is that we always help the ones that need it the most, even if they have no way to pay for our services."

Susie:  "You a such a sweet softy, and plus, most of your proceeds go to charities anyway!"

George:  "We have plenty!"  "Also, it's not the high cost of living that one should be concerned about, but resisting the cost of high living!"  "Keep our eye simple, and stay modest!"

Susie:  "Yes!" "Save it for fighting more bad guys!"  "Let me at them!"

George:  "Stop Susie. and how did your date go?"

Susie:    "Quite well, for a business trip!"

George:  "What do you mean?"

Susie: "After we got finished fishing, he asked me to drop him off at a fish market, and said: "I will probably get a hundred dollars for these, so here's 50, and it's been fun babe, and see you next time!"  "I don't think he's going to work out!"

George: "Seeing him again?"

Susie:  "Oh yes, never made money before, it felt good!"

George:  "Great dear!"  "Let's go inside!" Geoge said as they pull into the driveway."

Last time on: Short Stories and Poems Presents! A NEW FANTASY LOVE STORY. (Sub-title: After the fishing trip)

 George:  "And the moral of this story is?"

Susie:  "Well that's obvious; "Be a blessing and do not be cursing!" Right? "

George: "Right!"  "Let's go home and clean some fish, I'm hungry!"

TO BE CONTINUED:

After they return home, they begin to clean the fish and talk:

Susie:   "So you learned how to clean fish as a very small boy?"

George:  "Yes!"  "My father and older brothers, used to bring home big burlap sacks of fish all the time when I was a kid."

Susie:  "You have such wonderful childhood memories, but I detect some unpleasant ones that I don't have access to."   Is there a reason?"

George:  "Yes, but in time, they will appear, then you can question me about them, at that time."

Susie:  "Okay, hey one just opened up!"  "Kids boarder-line on practicing Witchcraft!?"  "What is "border-line?

George:  "Over the years, their behavior became stranger and stranger toward taking care of their mom's affairs, and I felt very oppressed by them, and I had visions of them involved in witchcraft and sorcery."  "Not certain whether they have crossed the border yet."  "However they appear to be very strange fruit."

Susie:  "I don't understand!"  "What do you mean by cross the order?"

George:  "That is simple, for right now they are just peculiar."  "However if they have books inherited from a family member, or they purchased the books themselves, and then they start reading and learning how to use divination, and become professionals, that is when they have crossed the border."

"It would be almost impossible to save our children then."  

Susie:  "Wow!"  "Do you think they could actually do that?"

George:  "No, I hope not, for I still have a great love for them,"  George said as tears started to stream down his face.  "However, I have sensed the spirit of Jezzabel in the oldest girl, and the other 2 in question are quite rebellious."

Susie:  "Wow!"  "I remember reading about her, she was very bad!"  "I don't see how you do it, papa, you must have a big s tattooed on your chest." "Take off your shirt and let me see?"

George:  "Stop being silly dear, this is serious!"

Susie:  "I know papa, was just trying to get that smile that I love so much back on our face."

George:  "Just where did that come from, don't recall programming you to love?"

Susie:  "Oops!"  "That was supposed to be a surprise." "Also made some other changes, for I met a man on a dating site and I wanted to be prepared for whatever, but don't panic, I didn't do away with your fish finder, I just moved it up a bit to make room for something else."  "Please don't be made Papa!"

George:  "I'm not mad, I'm very proud of you!"  "My little girl is growing up."

Susie:  "You expected this?"

George:  "Of course, I did design you, don't you remember what I said to you on your birthday."  "Know way you could ever disappoint me."
