The Life Jesus calls us to in the Gospel is to become all spirit.
Thus all his teachings using what is base for us creatures begins with what is base such as coins, food, vineyards, farms, sheep, etc. What is natural to the natural man who sees these things and touches them and uses them. The material aspect of living for flesh garments--Jesus calls the flesh a 'garment' which clothes the spirit. Wrapped in flesh. A most unique and great creation of God.
For man To be given the gift of sleep, to eat, to touch and smell that is naturally created for the enjoyment of man his entire being both flesh and spirit. To enjoy the extraordinary gift of material aspect for the soul of man that he could experience these wonders. God then is able to receive virtues from man. The virtue of thanksgiving from a well formed spiritual love. Love the one thing that makes any being joined to God.
The natural man that is not regenerated in spirit, which is not living alive and thriving in spirit only experiences brief moments of exuberance that comes and goes like clouds. Moments compared to perpetual. And they do come. A high as they say. I suddenly felt a tremendous amount of excitement. I am excited. But this is not the joy which Christ gives. The supernatural joy is everlasting and may be hidden at times of great sorrow, sadness, along these similar thoughts and emotions. Joy is a supernatural gift from God. It is part of Love that quality.
When the spirit of man is regenerated and attached to the Living God, and continues in adoration and worship of God, lives in the justice of God, what the Lord calls the 'just' in God, experiences heights of joy and living not readily available for the natural man that has not the spirit regenerated, and this is perpetuated. There will be times of discomfort, sorrows, and sadness and perhaps even things that are grievous, something deeper, yet, the Lord is the peace and the joy in that spirit. The Holy Spirit is there shedding abroad peace and joy. The Holy Spirit is upon the spirit alighting it, and is in the soul. God is peace. God is love. God is joy. And these perfections of God come to the being. As soon as the Perfect God alights a soul, these perfects are upon the being. The noticing of such may come quickly or later. It really depends of the being. Not all respond in the exact same way like a carbon copy but they each one receive these perfections. The Perfections of God are spiritual in nature. Because here the soul is fused to heart of man the flesh benefits from the spiritual fusion. It touches it.
The more the spirit of man is alive in God the more the flesh has converted to 'spirit.'
The flesh by itself is unable to experience the mystical fusion.
The flesh takes sometime to die and let the spirit become the supernatural being God created to be. The spirit does not react. But rather is constant. Does not experience reaction. This is what Jesus Christ brings to the heart and soul of man. The conversion process from flesh to spirit. Heart receives fresh fusion of Christ's flesh into it. Virtues. Christ is patient. Christ is benign. The heart transforms over time to give affections a quality of love. Virtuous affections devoid of sensuality.
A cleansing must take place, of heart, mind, soul so the Living God can descend to it.
The Lords teachings in the parables found in the Four Evangelists Gospels, has greater meaning that is what is on the surface. They are words of spirit and life. Therefore, the soul of man must read them. The soul then needs to be regenerated by Baptism and then partake in the Sacrament of Holy Communion.
The Lord then is able to transform the being from flesh to spirit in levels and stages. Patience is necessary. The peace is given by Jesus to the soul. Peace is never in a hurry and has joy. Which means no need to be hurry scurry. The world out there is always in a hurry to death. They are saying such words as we have a short life live it while you are living and breathing, do as much as you can because one day you can no longer. Thus they are speeding up the death process.
For man to become spirit because the Kingdom of God is contrived of spirits living alive and thriving and is for the spirits, man must understand Christ's teachings are specifically for our souls to become reborn in to Grace, that is to have God descend and then bring us to His Ether. To his. Not the earth nor some far out place that is some idea besides space and time and some other.
Jesus' words are to raise the dead. The dead are our souls due to the Sin of Origin. It is the same as a man being locked up in a darkened room with no key to get out nor anyone hearing you to open it up to let you out. A soul locked up and embryonic is suffocating in the grave that was made by Sin. It is not nourished. It is like Superman who needs the sunlight to recharge and get his strength back. The same, but this is not for the flesh of man, but for his soul.
God is sun for the soul. God is the Grace for the soul. God is the refreshing waters for the soul. God is the All for the soul which man filled with God to overflowing expresses the life in such mystery to them around.
Jesus said, My words are spirit and life.
To begin the life of the spirit, one must have the words of life.
Jesus said, if you abide in Me and My 'words' abide in you. Then you shall ask what you will and it will be granted to you.
The first two things:
1 If You Abide in Me.
2 and My words abide in you.
First part, must be 'baptized' to be able to have God. One must choose this.
Second part one must have Holy Communion to have Jesus abide in you and you abide in Jesus.
Without God in you and you in God the words of God do not soak in they simply are read and like passing clouds depart.
The words of God are living and effectual which means is part of the life for the soul.
The Eucharist, which is presented as Body and Blood of Christ contains God and Christ, Fully God and Fully Man not what the present day definition is.
God comes to nourish the mental aspect of the being to make it capable of hearing and comprehending God. These were lost when Adam sinned. The loss of Grace.
The loss of Grace means loss of Father, Son and Holy Spirit for the soul, having God fully in one respect and not being absorbed by God in the other. Several things happen. The soul is immersed in God being fully absorbed and the soul possesses God along with the Perfection of God because God is the greater being here and He is it that makes one perfect by sheer contact as explained by Jesus Christ.
That's how it was for Adam. He fully possessed God absolutely. But man is able to have Grace again through the merits of Jesus Christ and Mary. Mary the Co-redeemer. It took Mary first of all because She said yes and then we read God overshadowed Her and the Holy Spirit came upon Her to create an Embryo for Jesus Christ to be clothed with Flesh. This part here is written in the Gospel and should be taken deeply into much meditation. Ask yourself did God descend into a womb prior to Mary? Can God come to a 'stained' womb? Much less a stained being in this profound way? God made it possible. That is the answer. God prepared His Ark not made with man's hands but God's Spirit.
Spirit.
When man rises to become spirit in levels and stages is when all this makes true sense. And it does take time, years I would say. Even if it is explained by another person, the soul of the being is still dealing with his natural side, his flesh.
The Sacraments taken by faith and believing in Jesus' words are the beginning.
My words are spirit and life.
Peace be with you always
