John 19:30
"So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said "Finished!" {tetelestai} {eternal salvation life work complete --- substitutionary spiritual death on the cross}. And having pushed His head forward, He dismissed His spirit {physical death}".

* Philippians 3:10
* Everything in the Word of God warns us against entanglements. And remember, we are not going to have this opportunity again. If we get entangled down here, we are not going to receive the decorations and rewards God designed and intended for every believer to have.
* Paul is communicating the Church Age Ligradoc Realities for our benefit.
* When we die, we are going to die alone, with our own soul. Even if we die in the presence of others or with others, we still die alone. And the same is true with advancing to the Summits of Maturity. We cluster together with other believers in the Strategic Instrument Local Church (SILC), under synchronized Leadership and Authority but we advance to Maturity alone. We also suffer alone, eventho everyone suffers also.
* We must reach this Doctrinal conclusion: We are not going to fulfill the Ligradoc Plan of God based on human power, effort, ability, intelligence, etc ...
* Our Lord Jesus Christ does not touch down on this earth at the Rapture. We are raptured upward to meet the Lord in the atmosphere. He does return to the earth at the Second Advent.
* Our love for the Lord Jesus Christ will be tested. And our loyalty to the Mind of Christ will be challenged in this invisible Great Angelic War Proper (GAWP).
* The repercussions of the decisions we make down here will be eternal.
* Our Lord Jesus Christ made it clear to Paul on the road to Damascus that his Jewish heritage and his human self righteousness was not going to cut it and that he was not going to be in Heaven because of it.
* Verse 9 > ek nomos ten - with reference to the Mosaic Law. All human achievement comes from some lower dimension source. Paul's source was the Mosaic Law snap linked to his Jewish heritage and all this produced a human self righteous maturity that he finally concluded was skubala (dung).
* We must have overlapping positive volition. We can have positive volition to assemble together in the SILC. We can have positive volition to recalibrate and positive volition to listen under the Filling of the Holy Spirit (FHS) and positive volition to recall what we were taught but do we have the overlapping positive volition to apply and put into action what we have heard?
* It is possible, while in time, to love someone who does not have the sinful nature, - the Lord Jesus Christ. And when you are loving Him for real, during that period of time, you are not under the control of your sinful nature either. God has provided for us NOT to operate under the sin nature.
* Our life on this whole round planet is very, very short. When we are viewing it in Heaven, it will be like viewing a 1 1/2 hour movie. The Word of God says our time on this earth is like steam coming out of a kettle. It is there for just a moment and then it is gone.
