The Projectory Process--Healing Your Heart

When you receive the Seal the way you think and feel changes. But God does not do all the work. You have to work to change your heart in a process known as the projectory process.

You may think that what you think and feel is supposed to come from your heart. But that is not ideal. What you think and feel came from your heart before you were sealed, but not after.

Your heart is the seat of the natural person. Other creatures have thoughts and feelings come from their hearts. People are above that because they have God to share thoughts and feelings with.

You share your thoughts with God the Father by thinking with your head. That is thinking with your soul. And you share your feelings with the Holy Spirit by feeling with your belly.

So that is the Father and the Holy Spirit. What about Jesus? Jesus is the one to rule over your heart or your natural person. But Jesus does not want you to keep having your thoughts and feelings come from your heart.

Jesus wants you to replace them with thoughts and feelings from your mind and your belly. This is the projectory replacing. You throw away what comes out of your heart--whatever is natural. And you replace it.

Your natural inclinations are instinctual. And they are what get you into trouble. You may have the instinct to survive and thrive. You may have the instinct to keep on mating. But these are what you replace.

And that is why Jesus is the Lord of your heart. So you replace what naturally comes out of your heart. But first you have to completely cut off everything you naturally think and feel.

Jesus said that if your eye causes you to sin, you should pluck it out and cast it from you. For it is better to live with only one eye than to have two eyes to look at hell when you are condemned to it.

But it would not help you to pluck out your eye if you still had visions of natural lust and covetousness coming out of your heart. If you still desire things naturally from your heart you have not plucked out your eye.

You do not have to go about with only one eye. But you do have to remove the eye that lusts and covets. And you may have to pluck that eye out again and again, every day for years and years.

Because the natural person often grows up again when it is cut off. The heart that is pared down to nothing often grows back with a vengeance. You have to pluck out that eye day by day.

And Jesus said if your hand causes you to sin to cut it off and throw it from you. Again, you will not do well with only one hand if that remaining hand acts out any sinful desires of the heart. So you change your heart.

Every day you cut out the eyes of your heart so you do not desire sinful things. Indeed you cut out most desire. And every day you cut off your hands so you do not act out anything from the heart.

When you have cut off your heart you replace those with thoughts and feelings you share with God. This is the projectory throwing away followed by replacing you practice when you receive the Seal.
