Body Space of the Inner Man

By Johnny L. Graves

Many people in our generations are seeking the truth concerning the existence of God and did he really create man in his own image. They are also wondering if there really is a spirit within their physical bodies and what will happen to the soul after death, will it cease to exist or change its form and exist in another dimension as another being. And also, how to prepare for a change in this life if it cant be sensed with the senses and recorded for personal evidence. But the evidence is in the Inner Man, look inside and not outside. (John 14c15-18) Be blessed, believe beloved.

Elder Johnny L. Graves: minister/teacher/musician/artist/writer, a native of Texas, who started on this journey to be a helper in the Church. In May 1984 on Memorial Day Sunday, I repented and gave my heart to God and acknowledged that Jesus came in his flesh to save and heal all. Now I am an ordained minister and teacher of the gospel since December 1995 and I evangelized in the streets of Texas and others states. My desire is being fulfilled for God to give knowledge, give esteem and give the truth. God bless you and keep you, until he reveals himself to you forevermore.

Preface

Many of the prophets and ministers of the ancient days, up into this modern time have spoken of the indwelling of the Soul within them and of another spirit that is imparted into the natural body called the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit. This Kingdom within had been a mystery to many because most of the time man seeks visual evidence to record in his books but by its invisible character many times it leaves him full of doubt. Nevertheless, God’s word will not go out and return void. He did send his Comforter and continues to do so.

There is, of course, a way to identify the spirit from God. It’s seen by the Love it transmits. So, how one can know what a spirit is by looking at the shape and form? This becomes very important knowledge when you are seeking the supernatural bodies which exist all around us during the day and night. And not only that, it’s a sure thing that spirits exist because of all the religious assemblies and testimonies we encounter around the world acknowledging that some type of deity or spiritual presence is in their assemblies during worship. The influence of these unseen forces inside and outside the body can never be measured but they can be understood, felt, and used to manifest power in a body by possession, oppression, or depression of the will in you. By these three ways of being the natural man can be distinguished or disguised by the spirit inside the body. Therefore, many have not nearly enough power to complete his will (God) unless his knowledge of the spiritual realm is complete in his own beliefs. Anyone who values his own faith knows within his heart that there is another dimension he will eventually encounter after death or before. And what one carries in his memory is what will determine the fate of him or her. So, the many depths to travel in the understanding of spirituality can never end until time ends.

For this purpose I wrote of some of the general principles and knowledge of the soul in God’s word with the intent of going into a deeper knowledge of the heart, mind, and soul. So that victory over the natural man can be done be controlling his thoughts and emotions to create beliefs by the power of Christ that will carry you into the next dimension with a full assurance of faith that the promise (Eternal Life) is for you and for as many that would follow after the truth. And will cause you to reach out even more for a deeper revelation of our INWARD MAN and how to empower yourself to overcome the fleshly part of man in everyday life style that is centered around many spirits warring inside our souls to cause one to lose control around money, sex, and habits which leads into corruption.
