Words have power, including the power of life and death.
Because of the words we read and the words we hear, our image and our behavior are reflections of the words that abide within us.
We have words within us that we live for, and we also have words within us that we are willing to die for.
Words within us have the power to speak to us, directing our lives in the choices we make.
By the power of the words within us, we choose friends, we choose clothes and cars and houses, and we choose religions and politics, sports and movies.
Words are like seeds, and when we teach children the words we know, their image and their behavior are reflections of the words that abide within them.
Because of the power of words, we become a tree of words with multiple branches, and the leaves we sprout is the fruit of the tree.
What do these leaves say about us?
The leaves tell on us. The leaves tell others all about us, even when we are not speaking: for the words within us have the power to speak for us, even when we remain silent.
People speak from the words they know. If you know my words, for example, you can also speak my words, for my words are now within you and my words have become your words; and if I know your words, then I can speak you because your words have become my words.
If you know the words of the Bible, for example, you can speak the words of the Lord for the words of the Lord are now within you, and His words have become your words. But if you do not know the words of the Bible, it is impossible for you to speak for God because the Word of the Lord is not within you.
There are, however, imposters in the world who have memorized verses in the Bible in order to deceive others to believe that they are speaking for God. These words are only in their minds and not in their hearts. To know the difference, examine their leaves and watch their behavior.
If the words of religion are within you, then you will do and speak the words of religion, for you have been trained to be obedient to those words, and your tree now contains leaves of religion, which speak to others the foundation on which you are built, for your religious leaves is the fruit of your tree. And if the words of your religion reject the Bible, then you will also reject the Bible. Because your faith is deeply planted in religion, it is impossible for you to speak for God because God's words are not within you. Neither will you believe that God has the power to speak because you must first believe that God is living.
Because religion does not accept the Bible, neither does religion accept Christ; therefore, it is impossible for you to speak for Christ because you do not believe in Christ, and neither do you believe in the words of the Lord, for His words are not within you. If you attempt to speak for religion and speak for Christ at the same time, you are an imposter because it is impossible for you to have your faith in religion and in Christ at the same time.
When the words of religion are implanted in people, they become spiritual clones because religion is just another method of mind control programming in people:
they do no more or no less that their religion requires of them;
they stay between the lines or within the boundaries of their religion;
they do not stand up or stand out as appearing different from one another;
they sit the same way, stand the same way, kneel and pray the same way;
they repeat the same prayers they have been trained to speak;
they do not have a voice or a vote in policies, programs, and procedures;
they do not initiate change, for change must come from their supreme council;
their behavior and attitudes are shaped and conformed to their religion;
their total desire is to be a pleasing model in the eyes of their religion;
they never disagree or challenge their spiritual authorities;
their walk and their talk is according to the words that are within them.
But when the wind blows, what happens to the leaves of their tree? Do they remain calm in the midst of a storm, or do they get ruffled?
When the leaves of their tree gets challenged, do they remain calm, or do they get mad?
Words of the Bible are living words because they are from God: while words of religion are dead because they are from the imaginations of men.
What do the leaves of your tree say about you when the wind blows?
