Self Christianity: Self-Actualization
God wants us to be led by the Spirit and empowered by the Spirit. God wants to actualize us. All self-effort is sin. Our part is to yield to the Holy Spirit and to let the Holy Spirit motivate us to good works. God plans it, opens the door, gives the motivation, and does the work through us. As we yield, we are changed from glory to glory. There is a place in Jesus where there can be no sin, yet we must walk one step at a time to get there. There is much testing and trial between here and there.
Love is patient and kind. Love knows neither envy nor jealousy. Love is not forward and self-assertive, nor boastful and conceited. 1 Corinthians 13:4 Weymouth
While as to Israel he says, "All day long I have stretched out My arms to a self-willed and fault-finding people." Romans 10:21 Weymouth
wherever there is a man of blameless life, true to his one wife, having children who are themselves believers and are free from every reproach of profligacy or of stubborn self-will. Titus 1:6 Weymouth
O my soul, come not thou into their secret; to their assembly, mine honor, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their self-will they digged down a wall. Genesis 49:6
I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. John 5:30
The LORD hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the priest, that ye should be officers in the house of the LORD, for every man that is mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks. Jeremiah 29:26
The wisdom from above is first of all pure, then peaceful, courteous, not self-willed, full of compassion and kind actions, free from favouritism and from all insincerity. James 3:17 Weymouth
