Decendancy, The Erosion Of The Soul
The State of the human mind is in a constant flux especially in the times in which we live at present. Time is connected to the physical universe and all that dwells within it. Mankind is not except from this connection. Because time and the entire universe has experienced an event that disrupted the original state and functioning pattern of all that was created man has also been impacted.
In fact it was the fall of Adam that caused the degradation of the rest of creation at the physical level (Although the first creation was impacted by the angelic creature name Lucifer). It was Adam who was created for dominion and partnership with God (Gen. 1:26-28). It was also Adam who lost his position as vice-regent when he fell through disobedience to God. In this disobedience he lost his position and authority and by his sin all that he governed came under the control of Satan (2 Cor. 4:3-4). His failure set into motion a continual decline decendancy. Decendancy is the state or condition that causes a continual degeneration and dysfunction in all the universe.
The sin factor that Adam unleashed caused an instantaneous mutation and antithetical state in his own being and in the nature of creation itself. All that he was connected to and control was handed over to the powers of darkness and the King of Darkness, who is called Satan. His spirit lost its divine light and darkness and sin settled in until all that man became was not a being without God that was filled with sin and iniquity. Because man was the source of this breach in divine covenant it is within his own mind that this covenant was lost and his mind began to literally lose its original state of stability, harmony and divine connection.
The decendant state in man's nature caused a continual decline in man's capacity to know, function and operate within the perimeters of the things of God. Man's trichotomic being remained trichotomic but lost its harmonic state. When this occurred mankind became insecure, limited and inclined to function in all that is characteristic of carnality and confrontational with God. His ability to think and to engage in spiritual things succumbed to those things that were antithetical to the things of God. The later end was the mind in its carnal state became confrontational and filled with enmity toward God and the things of God (Romans 8:7).
The natural state of man is to be:
1. Enmity against God
2. Resistant to God's
3. Not capable of being obedient to the Laws of God
4. Incapable of pleasing God
5. Governed by death
It is this reason that with the degeneration of the world's condition man's condition will also continue to degenerate in its consideration of God. Only through proper realignment with the law and presence of God through the power of the New Birth can and will the church be capable of developing the constituents who are the adherents to the faith. This begins with the New Birth process and a willing desire to be obedient to the Lord and that leadership that was given to the individual. The soul of man must be deconstructed through and by the Word of God and reconstructed into a spiritual mind that can be susceptible to the leading and guiding of the Holy Ghost and sensitive to the Word and Heart of God.
Without God the minds of humanity will continue to spiral out of control in every thought, conception of ideologies, values and life in general. In understanding this the essencologist must come to realize the importance of their mandates and missions and the field of Essencology. Even though at times all looks bleak all believers have the God ordained responsibility to function in the ministry of reconciliation to reach others while ministering to their hurts, their pains and their dysfunctions.
