Intellectual Dishonesty
It is intellectually dishonesty to say you are not sure if Jesus is God of the Bible or to say you are an atheist/agnostic, for God is fully proven as is His Son (http://www3.telus.net/trbrooks/perfectproof.htm).
This is intellectually dishonest because time and nature do not happen all by themselves, and Jesus was the only man who had the ability and authority do what He did from God the Father. Since all time and nature have their antecedent precedents as a cause, it is intellectually dishonest just because the farthest thing back in time is so far away, that you think you can mindlessly self-proclaim and self-declare from the evil spirit in the center of your very being, your spirit, by saying it happened all by itself like puff the magic dragon. This is essence of the definition of the idolatry of humanism.
Be honest with yourself. Admit what you really are. You are a bad person, who simply prefers your flesh (sin of the body and self of the soul) over the Spirit, than receiving God's saving grace in His only begotten Son - be prepared for this long run-on sentence - by the shedding of the precious blood for the washing away of your sins (before God (http://biblocality.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2011&postcount=1)) to give you a new spirit so that His Holy Spirit may enter in through the window of your conscience to indwell the intuition of your quickened spirit as a new creation. Did you get that? Don't be afraid to admit this. Don't be afraid to admit that you prefer to live in your old man and in the old creation of your sin nature. Stop clinging to any other conclusion because it is just self clinging to itself and the world in quite desperation. In order for you to be able to gain your soul, you will need to first lose it. Let it go. To be able to let go, you have to stop blaming and to be able to stop blaming randomly, you have to stop overssuming, and to stop overassuming, you have be humble and repent, and to be humble and repent, you have to make a choice for the truth by faith (after knowing that God proves Himself (http://www3.telus.net/trbrooks/perfectproof.htm)). And we all know God proves Himself because we all can read this Proof and accept the truth, because we have a spirit of God-consciousness, without excuse.
Are you willingly to be such a rare selfless human being? Did you know that you don't have the power to be this selfless person. It is only by the grace and mercy of God that He affords you the right, being made in His image, to come to the cross as a helpless sinner that He can save you from your sins and self, and give you power over sin. Then, God will begin to give you increased faith by your daily bearing your crosses (power over sin) and taking up your crosses (forsaking the world, environment, petty self and good self) after having died on the cross (co-death, co-crucifixion, identificaiton) with Christ and receiving the substitionary work (perfect sacrifice, atonement, propitiaiation. In your death with Christ you are punished with Him in His death, and are completely forgiven.
Praise the Lord for God Himself and His righteousnss (His way of doing things) and His holiness (His nature)!
1Pe 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
1Pe 4:13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
In Romans 6-7, there is mention of the "law of sin" that energizes us to do things against God; leads to the "law of death", incapable of doing this for God. The flesh (sin of the body and self of the soul) must die completely on the cross. It can not be changed, refined or beautified. It must die so that we can live. There is no other way. Vanity is not an option. The self-life must utterly be put to naught. Even so, it is an accomplished fact we have already died in Christ with Him at Calvary.
