eating the forbidden fruit of lies, Hosea, John 2:24

You have plowed wickedness and reaped Iniquity.  You have eaten the fruit of lies BECAUSE you have trusted your own "way"...human spirit.  Being according to the spirit of FLESH.
Relying on HUMAN wisdom...human thoughts...which are not God's Spirit of Wisdom...Divine Thoughts.  The Lord: I was to them a Yoke they remove from their necks.  I led them, drew them.  Drawn by the Spirit and Word of God...but they rejected, rebelled...resisted...refused to repent and return to Me.  The "self" led are not God-led, God-centered souls.  Preferring HUMAN counsel, wisdom...human guides, blind, deaf leaders...that do not Know Me as God.   Hosea 11.

They shall wander lost among the nations...because they did not obey Him. Hosea 10.  There they stand in battle against the children of iniquity....having no Power against their lies.  Because they did not believe, doubted...played the spiritual harlot with other gods.

To partake...taste...DIGEST ...become ONE WITH a falsehood, lie...forsaking TRUTH, the Fruit of God.  The Lord does not accept...receive those who sow the wind and reap the Whirlwind, He is not pleased with them.  They stand at the altar of Sin...sinning.  God rejects them, remembers their Iniquity...unrighteous spirit, human spirit within them and punishes their sins...they return to dust. Their sacrifices do not please the Lord...they do not Worship IN Spirit and Truth.  They do not offer the sacrifices of Righteousness.  Stained, unclean...worthless...they are cast out of existence by God.
The days of punishment have come.  The days of punishment by God, Truth, Fire...have come.

Fear Him who Ransoms SOULS from the power of the grave.  Return to the Lord your God.  Your HUMAN nature, Sin nature...evil human spirit...self...has led you astray...far from God...Righteousness, Love, Right Thought.  Wise?  THEN Understand THESE things.  The Spirit, Way of the Lord IS Right...stumble not...resist not...and Walk IN Him His Thoughts, Right Thoughts.

Jesus did not trust men, children of HUMAN fathers...because He knew WHAT was IN them. Their thoughts are not the Thoughts of Divine Father.   Return to Me...weeping...repenting.  IN Faith. John 2:24.  EXAMINE your "self"...thoughts...temptations will come and go.  Do not become one with falsehood...thoughts of flesh.  Flesh sees, hears...unites with...that which flesh desires, wants, hungers for.  The Lord alone Feeds and Saves a soul from Sin and death of nonexistence.
