Chronicles of a Watchman by Dr. James P. Norman Jr.

There are two kinds of wisdom the first being from The Holy Spirit. It has distinctive marks. It is pure, peaceable, gentle, easy to be intreated and full of mercy. It produces good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. The second is not from the Holy Spirit. It is ungodly and has envy strife, boastfulness, lying and confusion as its distinctive marks. (1 Corinthians 14:33) True Revelation and Direction comes from a Believer’s Spirit and is from the Holy Spirit. If revelation comes from the soul it is worldly, if it comes from the body it is lustful False revelation and false direction comes from demonic control. The “spiritual” man receives the “hidden wisdom”, the “soulish” man cannot receive it. For further study, see break down and related scriptures (nkjv and comp) of 1 Corinthians 2:7-15 below. 1 Corinthians 2:1-3 Not with human oratory of wisdom. 1 Corinthians 2:.4-5 - Human weakness supernaturally attested and empowered by the Holy Spirit (comp. Rom. 15:18-19; Co...

Amplified Bible: Psalms 14:1-2 Verse 1 - The [empty-headed] fool has said in his heart [deep down in], there is no God. They’re corrupt, they have done abominable deeds; there is none that does good or right. [Romans 3:10]. Verse 2 - The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men to see if there were any who understood, dealt wisely, and sought after God. Inquiring for and of Him requiring Him. [of vital necessity.] Truth: Gk. Alethia The reality lying at the basis of an appearance; the manifested, veritable, essence of a matter; gives the correct rendering, the meaning is not merely ethical truth but truth in all its fullness and scope, as embodied in Him He is the perfect expression of the truth. There is only one way to do this and that's God’s Way. The atheism is natural to man in his depraved state, and very frequent in the hearts and lives of men. They come into churches in sheep's clothing to get a seat at the table. Their desire is to pro...

  In a fact of God Holiness is moral purity, not only in the sense of absence of all moral stain, but of complacency in all moral good. God is holy in that he is the source and standard of the right. The only rule for the divine will is the divine reason: the divine reason prescribes everything that is befitting. God is not under law, nor above law. God is law.   Let’s talk for a moment what Satan has chosen to do in the face of this. He has chosen to kill and to steal anything that would allow the works of God to lead us. He will try to destroy the true church and undertake the development of true holiness the way God is.The Word of God is not paper and ink. It is God’s plan for man. God is righteous by nature and necessity…God is the source and author of law for all moral beings. Satan has been so clever in keeping our saints attention on things that look so easy and so humanly natural.   We may have a better definition of holiness by saying that holiness is that...

THE SPIRIT FILLED LIFE (part one) You know when God comes in he doesn’t come in to abide. He comes in to take over! Where there is holy worship, he takes over. Let’s try some problem solving by the word of God! 1.       See that there is a problem 2.       Examine the problem 3.       See what the word says about the  problem 4.       Put yourself in the problem as a problem solver 5.       Solve the problem with strong ACTION 6.       Then move to the next problem CHURCH GOING CHRISTIANS   Jesus had a role to play in the Christian. Jesus is in our lives, as savior but Jesus Christ has been the object but not the origin. My moves must come from him as the origin. My moves must come from him as the origin not just going to heaven. He must be the object as well as the origin of all my activity. He must...

TO BE IN CHRIST (PART ONE) To be in Christ is redemption; but for Christ to be in you – that is sanctification! To be in Christ - that makes you fit for heaven; but for Christ to be in you - that makes you fit for Earth! To be in Christ – that changes your destination; but for Christ to be in you - that changes your destiny! The one makes heaven your home and the other makes this world his workshop. I have been bound to this earth by a law that I have never been able to break. That is the law of gravity. By Faith I step into the new law of God. I sit back in the rest of faith and new mighty anointing roars into my life. I discover that the new law of the spirit, of life in Christ Jesus, has me free from the law of sin and death. As long as I maintain (by faith) that position of total dependence I do not have to try to be free from the law of sin and death. I am being set free by the operation of a new law, the operation of the Holy Spirit. III John 2 2  Beloved...

HEALING AND DIVINE HEALTH If one wants healing, health, success, happiness and prosperity from God through the gospel, he must first of all learn the lesson and learn it well. He must stop doubting the word of God on anything that he says. If a man had never permitted himself to doubt in the first place, if he had also warded off all suggestions of Satan to doubt God, and if he had immediate and full victory over all doubt to begin with, there would not have been the struggle that there is today to believe God without a doubt. The first and last lesson one must learn is to doubt not if he wants anything from God. I must say, whatever I go though in life it never occurs to me to doubt God. All material things are here for a time, no matter what it is. All men should maintain their attitude toward God at all time. God has made it very plain that he giveth to all men liberally and upbraideth not; ask in Faith and it shall be given him. Most churches today, (denominations...

Women in Holiness (Inner & Outward Peace) 1 Peter 1:13-16 KJV "Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy."
