Preparation

First the logger chooses a living tree (sick or healthy) that is soft but very dense. It examines the tree and its surrounding, making sure it's not decayed or rotted. Nor does it have loose or dead limbs. 

Calling

Once the logger identifies it as being a good tree ideal for firewood then he starts working on it before proceeding to cut it down. If the felled tree is hung, then the logger has to survey for any widowmaker. Once he deems the area cleared, he begins the limping process.

Water baptism 

The logger starts off by cutting off any branches that he does not need. The fallen leaves are recycled (testimonies). The trunks are cut down in logs otherwise bucking 

Then the logger can begin the long process of drying out the wood before it's ready for burning. 

Fire baptism 

If a log stopped burning its no good and has to be thrown away 

Romans 12 :: NIV. Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship.

Sanctification

To Become a Disciple of Christ Is to Passover  

Passover is a crucial pillar of the Christian faith. Just as Israel was enslaved to the Egyptians, a non-believer is enslaved to sin. When they choose to follow Christ—living a life of obedience, repentance, and holiness—they begin the process of passing over into the wilderness.  

No one who is prideful can truly Passover and survive, just as Pharaoh could not enter the wilderness with the Israelites.  

During the Passover (the Last Supper), Judas passed over from Light to Darkness.  

Passing Over: Two Paths

From Light to Darkness:

- They question God instead of walking in faith.  

- They feel self-righteous or "enlightened."  

- They rebel against God.  

- They are prideful.  

- They harbor profound hatred toward believers.  

From Darkness to Light:

- They place their faith in God.  

- They thirst for the Word of God.  

- They surrender fully to Him.  

- They are meek and humble.  

- They feel godly hatred—a righteous displeasure toward the ways of Egypt (the world).  

Surviving the Wilderness  

In the wilderness, believers must:  

- Deny the flesh and feed on the Word of God. 

- Drinking the cup of Christ suffering means willing to serve Jesus and your neighbor and refuse to die on the wilderness

 

- Receive daily spiritual nourishment, lest they risk dying spiritually.  

- Submit to God, allowing Him to fight their battles—otherwise, they risk losing the spiritual warfare.  

- Avoid seeking comfort in worldly things, though failure is not the end.  

Many perish in the wilderness due to a lack of knowledge—as Scripture says, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" (Hosea 4:6).  

The Cost of Discipleship  

It is vital to love Jesus above all else; otherwise, one risks ending like Judas, who failed to Passover when the disciples faced spiritual warfare.  

Anyone you know who didn't passover, no longer loves you anymore for the devil attacks their mind so that they hate you. 

As a disciple of Christ, we must remember Passover—living a holy, set-apart life in surrender and obedience to God.  

If you have failed to Passover or have passed over from darkness to light, there is still time to repent. However, you must remain faithful and committed, for the spiritual warfare will intensify.  

The Significance of Passover in Challenging Times

Certain events in Passover carry deep significance, especially in years when spiritual battles are fiercer than usual.  

 

Beware: The Three Types of God’s Judgment  

There are three forms of divine judgment:  

1. Judgment by Water (which occurred only in Noah’s time),  

2. Judgment by Fire (which will come after the Rapture),  

3. The Removal of His Grace (which periodically opens the door to intense spiritual warfare).  

Because of the profound significance of these Passovers, it is crucial to flee to safety and mark your house with the perfect Blood of the Lamb—lest you doubt, worse sin or wrestle with death risking spiritual death.

Spiritual warfare: fighting the judas spirit 

We fight with the Word of God, we arm ourselves with the Armor of God, we use Holiness to protect the gates of our soul 

Unclean spirits may accuse you of anything—idolatry, being a Judas, and so on. Plead the Word of God over yourself and your family members.

 

When you speak Truth, you might deliver both higher and lower truths, and sometimes you may say or do the wrong thing. Each of these can become an opening for spiritual warfare, as unclean spirits try to exploit any door.

Rather than engaging in this struggle, the wisest path is not to play the game at all. If accusations arise, resist the devil, submit to God, and he will flee.

Many, however, refuse to live as saints and may unconsciously accept labels such as “lustful,” or “Judas” —which then intensify the spiritual warfare they face.

Example:

Lower Truth:

If you do not defeat the spirit of lust, it will keep returning or wait at the door.

Higher Truth:

Penitence may invite spiritual warfare, but true repentance closes the gate.

 

Perception, labeling, and evidence determine the intensity of spiritual warfare.

 

Imagine the son of a Good Master invites you over, but you lack proper attire. You are told to come as you are, yet upon arrival, you are asked to remove your sandals at the door. This act represents holiness—being welcomed in your current state, but also prepared to receive the invitation with holiness and genuine repentance. 

Now, imagine a store owner. If a malicious person falsely labels one of his customers a thief, why would that customer ever return? You must plead your own case. Be like the thief on the cross who, through true genuine repentance (not mere penitence), revealed the accusing crowd as the true monsters, and by submitting Himself to The King of kings became a Saint. 

Your life is a sacrifice offering 

Most people are not like the criminal on the cross, just as not everyone is a Job. Both have the same attitude: "Thank you, God, for the sweet and the bitter." Think of Abraham, Joseph, or Jesus; the pattern is the same for everyone God accepts.

So yes, you want to be saved. Think of it this way: your offering is a clean heart. Do not defile it. Jesus is the High Priest, and your life is the wood. Grace is the altar. You need the High Priest and a clean heart to be saved; Your head has to be anointed with the Word of God.

That is how you are now acceptable to enter a holy place like Heaven.

Your life is the evidence of your faith (obedience, honor)

The Christian life demands a dual nature: we are called to be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves (Matthew 10:16), living with the discernment of a lawyer and the purity of a saint. This is not a passive faith but an active one—a life where trust in God is evidence of faith and proven through obedient action. We follow Christ’s own example in temptation, where He did not passively await rescue but actively defended Himself by submitting to God (obedience) and wielding the sword of Scripture (honor) (Matthew 4:4-10). So too must we, like Peter, who confessed, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”—a truth revealed not by man but by the Father (Matthew 16:16-17). That confession, made before a blind or hostile world, was both an act of worship and an evidence of his faith. It is this pattern—Abraham’s obedient journey, the criminal’s dying appeal—that marks a life of faithful evidence. We walk where God leads, but we walk with purpose, using every step of obedience, every act of trust, every courageous acknowledgment of Christ as our defense. Then, at the end, our Divine Advocate, Yeshua, can stand before the Father and declare, “This one I recognize. Their resilient faith is the evidence they are my disciples.”
