And i pray god your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless. 1 thessalonians 5:23

Your whole spirit . . . The great mystical work of the holy spirit is in the dim regions of our personality which we cannot get at. Read the 139th psalm; the psalmist implies thou art the god of the early mornings, the god of the late at nights, the god of the mountain peaks, and the god of the sea; but, my god, my soul has further horizons than the early mornings, deeper darkness than the nights of earth, higher peaks than any mountain peaks, greater depths than any sea in nature thou who art the god of all these, be my god. I cannot reach to the heights or to the depths; there are motives i cannot trace, dreams i cannot get at my god, search me out. Do we believe that god can garrison the imagination far beyond where we can go? The blood of Jesus christ . . . Cleanseth us from all sin if that means in conscious experience only, may god have mercy on us. The man who has been made obtuse by sin will say he is not conscious of sin. Cleansing from sin is to the very heights and depths of our spirit if we will keep in the light as god is in the light, and the very spirit that fed the life of Jesus christ will feed the life of our spirits. It is only when we are garrisoned by god with the stupendous sanctity of the holy spirit, that spirit, soul and body are preserved in unspotted integrity, undeserving of censure in gods sight, until jesus comes. We do not allow our minds to dwell as they should on these great massive truths of god.
