The evil fruit of #idolatry are like ripe fruit if these problems are found in your life.
If not yet present they are like green fruit.
A traumatic experience is enough to move fruit from green stage to ripe stage. Traumatic events trigger the ripening of the fruit.
Understand these problems only occur if the root of #idolatry is present in a person's life.
Some persons struggle with idolatry because of:
Family of origin
Ancestral practices
Religious beliefs/practices
Culture
Choice
Inaccurate view of self
Ingratitude (Romans 1) etc.
Matthew 7:18-20 applies here.
The root sin of #idolatry is always present if you observe these fruit.
Are you living with the consequences of #idolatry?
Consequences are not judgement/punishment (Jude 14,15).
It is still the acceptable year of the Lord (Isaiah 61:2).
Consequences are the harvest of our choices (Galatians 6:7,8; Hosea 8:7).
Negative consequences are designed by God to be corrective (Hebrews 12:5,11).
The list below is not exhaustive.
There are 3 ways to violate the 1st rule of building #GoodRelationships. Each way automatically leads to demonic bondage.
#idolatry
#Resurrection #Passover #Easter
Sometimes limited knowledge is the real division...
May the eyes of our understanding be enlightened so that we can function as the unified Church we are.
#Passover #Easter #Resurrection
Christ fulfilled the requirements of the #Passoverlamb.
#Passover #Resurrection #Easter
This Resurrection may the Lamb be seen and understood.
#GoodRelationships need a healthy input from my emotions.
Sadness says something or someone valuable has been lost.
Feelings are good. If I don't know what my feelings are telling me I will experience stress in my #relationships.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Explains how a relationship with the living #Christ helps me in grief.
No emotion should control a person's life! Self-control, that wonderful fruit of the Holy Spirit, is added to the believer's life as part of a process (Galatians 5:22,23; 2Peter 1:5-15).
In demonic bondage there is no self-control. Here demons are in control. Deliverance through Christ the Messiah returns self-control to the person.
When self-control operatesin a life that person can better regulate the entire body including the feelings (1 Thessalonians 5:23; 1 Corinthians 14:32,33).
Fear says be careful, show respect, danger is near.
#Fellowship fails when discipleship is failing.
The Jewish model and the First Century model of discipleship allowed Rav's and their disciples to live, travel, and learn together. Due to this the fellowship experience was richer.
The bible reveals hundreds of passages with an angry scene.
The bible is not afraid of confronting anger.
Men are sometimes featured as an angry character, women as the provocation to anger.
In building #GoodRelationships you should know what triggers your anger.
Use this tool with any strong emotion to quickly come to a place of calm so that you can hear from God and move forward to a godly solution.
#GoodRelationships #Anger #AngerManagenent #ResolvingProblems #ResolvingAnger
Each feeling has a purpose.
Our emotions provide us with useful information to help us make constructive decisions.
Anger says confront the problem.

Demonic attacks do not just occur. 1 John 5:18
Satan can only legally attack a believer because of:
Idolatry
Satanic activities
Sex outside of marriage
These 3 families of sins results in an automatic transfer of demons into the doer even if he/she is an unwilling participant.
Demonic activity often explains prolonged defeat in specific areas of the believer's life. Truth sets us free. Truth is a person (John 8:32; 14:6).
#infidelity #SexualSin #GoodRelationships #Deliverance #Help #Idolatry
If God is not 1st then who or what is?
To build #GoodRelationships we cannot violate the most important rule, rule 1.
