Doctrine of Betrayal

9. The 10 Problem Solving Devices for protection and/or recovery from betrayal.

A. The Unbeliever's Protection and Recovery.

Every member of the human race is born physically alive, yet spiritually dead, void of a relationship with God and Jesus Christ, John 3:3-21.

When he believes in Jesus Christ, he is immediately entered into union with Christ through the indwelling of God the Holy Spirit, Rom 6:3-5; 1 Cor 12:13; Eph 4:5.

He then has the opportunity for true recovery in all aspects of life, physical and spiritual. Gen 3:8-21

Our Lord was sacrificed and the Father offers it to us so that we can receive eternal life!

1) Rebound

Rebound is the confession of your sins to God the Father as stated in Psa 32:5b, 1 John 1:9 and demonstrated by our Lord in John 13:4-11.

When we sin we have turned off the light of Christ in our souls, 1 John 1:5-6, 8, 10, emanated by means of the indwelling Holy Spirit.

When we sin we are covering up the Spirit, Eph 5:18 with Mat 5:17, and He cannot help us in time of need.

By confessing our sins we are cleansed from known and unknown sins and walk in the Light of Christ again where true protection and recovery is possible. 1 John 1:7-8; Mat 5:13-16

Through rebound our thinking is adjusted to the justice of God, providing real solutions in life.
