Props To The Reproduction Industry

My mom has great sense of style and it shows a lot with her shoe collection. She has different kinds, various types and designer labels. This can be a good thing but the downside is that she gets so possessive about her shoes that she does not let anyone else touch them at all. Every time she goes out, she would always make sure that she get locks her own closet of shows. Once she gets back, she would put the pair back to its original place as well.

Once when I had to go to winter formal, I found out that the heels of my shoes were definitely broken and that there was no way I would be able to repair them. Before I even bought my shoes, I had asked my mom if I could borrow any of her Christian Louboutin shoes but then as expected, she refused to. I made sure I cleaned my room and behaved when I was at home but none of that helped me from borrowing any of her shoes at all. In the end, i just gave up so I just decided to wear the old ones that I have had for years and years now. Right when those shoes broke, I did not know what else to do. I called my girlfriend so she can help me out and she told me that she would always go and sneak at her mom's closet to get shoes and her mom never ever found out. She told me exactly the same thing, that my mom would not even know it.

I was just left with no other choice but to just sneak into my mom's closet and borrow one of her Christian Louboutin shoes. I guess this was done out of desperation so I just did what I had to do even if I knew it was wrong. The nigh went great, it was so fantastic until one of my good friends barfed on my Christian Louboutin shoes. It ruined the whole shoes! I did not know what else to do after that. I tried to wash it but it just made it so much worse than it already is. I was so scared, so nervous. I regret doing that at all.

My friend then advised me to go home and pretend like nothing happened. She told me that she would go to my place in the morning and would help me fix the mess I made. I did exactly what she said, again. Even if I was really tired from the night, I just could not sleep at all. I was definitely worried that my mom would find out about it pretty soon and the consequences I would get from that. When my friend came in the morning, she brought the exact same shoes from the Christian Louboutin collection but then, it was definitely a Christian Louboutin replica. She told me to place it back to the closet when I got the shoes from and that my mom will not find out about it all. Again, i did what she asked me to.

I can only thank Christian Louboutin replicas for saving me that night. Up to now, my mom has no idea that that even happened and that reproduced Christian Louboutin replica is the one on her closet. Because these shows were her favorite, she would wear them all the time now. Every time I see her were them, my heart skips a beat because I am scared that she would find out that they were fake. Years after, she still has no idea and my secret was never revealed.

Eat And Lose Weight Easily – Some Views

A glance in any book shop today is bound to reveal a ton of autobiographies. Successful people explaining how they made it in life. From glamour models to empire builders, they all have a different story to tell. But each has a common thread - they overcame adversity by focusing on the positives. This is the only way to achieve anything we're aiming for. We have to consume ourselves with positive beliefs, and not allow negative a foot-hold!

And so for someone attempting to reduce their weight, a positive mind-set is fundamental. You can only do it if you think you can! An up-beat, affirmative viewpoint harnesses the right results. On the other hand, a negative outlook blocks us and numbs our 'can-do' receptors.

This is because we have a mechanism, called the Reticular Activation System. It tells the brain what to think about. We become familiar with many things over time that don't continue to stay in the forefront of our minds - as we store all our previous experiences in the sub conscious bit, or the back so to speak.

When we consciously attempt to do anything, our Reticular Activation System (RAS) will search the sub-conscious mind for any relevant information it holds, and bring it to our attention. If we're walking down a street, we're only made aware of things that have meaning to us - the rest is just background noise.

Therefore, if our conscious mind has generally been transferring positive, upbeat messages to our sub-conscious mind, that's what it will send back. But if our sub-conscious has been given loads of downbeat messages, then that's equally what will be sent back.

We have an element of control over this. Successful people have generally worked on their attitude and restricted the amount of negative being stored. And so the reticular activation system emerges as a brilliant mechanism for fulfilling our dreams. The sub conscious has no way of knowing whether information sent to it is imaginary or not.

In other words, as it believes what it's told, we need to create a very specific picture of our goal in our conscious mind. The RAS will then pass this on to our sub-conscious - which will then help us achieve the goal. It does this by bringing to our attention all the relevant information which otherwise might have remained as 'background noise'.

Napoleon Hill once wrote that we can attain any reasonable goal if we keep it clearly in our mind. That's as long as we don't allow any negative thoughts about it. Of course, if we keep thinking that we can't achieve a goal, our subconscious will help us not to achieve it.

Libertarians and Libertines

That's libertarians for you - anarchists who want police protection from their slaves" - Kim Stanley Robinson

Libertarian economics praises the market above all, to the extent where it is venerated like a god. The market is praised for its ability to self-regulate, with the result that the more freedom you give to the market the better the long-term economic results will be (or so the theory goes). Libertarians blame governments and public regulators for innumerable crises in the history of economics. The market, they contend, is not to blame.

This theory has much in common with the case of a gardener seeking to keep a vast plot of land in check. He is the regulator in this metaphor, and can do a certain amount in terms of pruning and planting, but even he is powerless to intervene in a very hot summer of a very cold winter. Nature must take its course on his garden. To blame the gardener for any damage done and fire him for his efforts is what the libertarians would have us do, but it will have little effect on the garden at the end of the day.

However, if you were to return to the garden after an absence of several years, the difference would be noticeable. It would look wild and dishevelled. Eventually, there would be no trace of what was once a beautifully balanced garden. This is because, while subtle and barely noticeable on the surface, beneath the surface, nature is relentlessly taking its course. The longer the garden is left, the more difficult it becomes to restore its equilibrium. If left too long, it simply runs to seed and one will pretty well have to start from scratch in creating a new order in the wilderness.

This is precisely what took place with the deregulation of the financial system. Bit by bit, it began to shift. Practices became steadily more and more aggressive and dodgy. The bubble it created drove up the house prices, which helped to keep it all hidden from view. Eventually, gravity kicked in and the artificially stimulated, housing bubble burst. Without deregulation, the bubbles can form from time to time, but of a much smaller duration and magnitude. The sheer size of this bubble was enough to destabilize, not only the local economy, but sent the entire world financial system into a tailspin.

Now, the libertarians might seek to blame the dubious individuals who exploited the system while the housing market continued to grow, and to some extent they would be right to do so. But any anarchic system gives rise to criminal activity, and deregulation was just the signal the con men needed to move in on the financial services sector. Of course it is right that we should pursue and prosecute these wheeler-dealers, but does not some blame also lie with the economists who championed the system?

There is a balance to be struck, of course, between micromanaging the economy and leaving it entirely free from regulation. But what we have seen in recent years surely represents the most extreme form of freeing up market forces to act without regulation of any kind. It is worth remembering that those who advocated these policies did so knowing that they would either benefit personally from the highs or be immune from the lows because of the state of their own financial successes.

The Media Reports Poorly on the Electronic Cigarette

Electronic Cigarette by The Safe Cig as seen on Action News

It's no secret that there are some obvious differences in the safety of electronic cigarettes as reported by the media when compared to the facts presented by distributors of the product. So who's right? Would you believe both of them? If we break the argument of both sides down to the nuts and bolts of the disagreement, we will see that they are both correct and are actually comparing apples to oranges.

See if you can decipher the problem by looking at the claims of each side. The media will report saying, "Electronic cigarettes are not FDA Approved and may pose certain health risks to its users." Distributors on the other hand state, "E-cigarettes are 99.9% safer than traditional tobacco cigarettes." Did you catch it?

The poor translation between the two sources stems from the starting point of "safety". Distributors are comparing electronic cigarettes to tobacco cigarettes. The media is comparing them to not smoking at all. This is baffling to e-cig distributors as they implicitly market the product to current smokers who will gladly take any alternative to tobacco.

Combustion is at the heart of the toxins in cigarette smoke. Or perhaps to be more clear, the creation of the smoke itself. When a flame hits the tobacco and ignites, it is in that moment that the 4,000 chemical agents come to life as a health hazard. And they can be created by lighting almost any organic product. The tobacco isn't the biggest culprit in the health risk of smoking, it is the combustion process.

So if we take the ignition out of the combustion process, we are in essence also removing thousands of killer chemicals as well. And you know the carcinogens (cancer causing agents) you're always warned about? They're gone too. Now compare the electronic cigarette which is combustion free to a traditional cigarette and you're suddenly viewing from a different angle. There is only one unproven ingredient in the liquid used by electronic cigarettes that is causing all of this fuss, but the fact still remains that these devices are combustion free.

While the media continues to report their "non-FDA approved" hoopla, smokers are taking well to this new alternative as the internet continues to get flooded with positive reviews from electronic cigarette users. Thousands of people have reported drastic improvements in their senses of taste and smell as well as their overall health after making the move away from tobacco products.

The media seems to be biased against them as much as distributors seem to be bias for them, but it is ultimately up to the smoker to decide how serious they are about a smoke-free alternative that may hold the key to helping them kick the smoking habit.

Advanced Cosmic Ordering – The Secret Of Celebrities Success

Many celebrities have admitted that much of their success is down to 'cosmic ordering', but what is it?

If you have seen the film 'the secret' or have heard about the law of attraction, you will know something about this, but cosmic ordering allows you to decide specifically on things that you want in your life.

Suppose for a moment that you had access to a cosmic ordering service and if you wanted something, all you had to do was think of it and it would appear before you. That would be amazing, wouldn't it? The incredible thing is that every one of us can already do this - but most of us, even with limitless options continue to choose the same thing over and over again.

Think of it in this way - you have a menu with an unlimited number of options in front of you, but you only look at the very first line -bread. You keep ordering only this, perhaps feeling that you do not deserve more than this.

Picture yourself wealthy. Picture yourself running, dancing, climbing mountains and driving the most luxurious car. Picture yourself constantly on vacation with a private jet and rooms at only the best of hotels.

You wear the most expensive clothing and look absolutely marvellous. If you can picture this in your mind and hold it for a few minutes, you're partially on your way. It is difficult to get a good picture of yourself in those circumstances if you're like most people. For the majority of people, cosmic ordering seems beyond their reach. So what exactly is advanced cosmic ordering?

Advanced cosmic ordering is something that can work for the majority of us - those of us who have tried cosmic ordering before and not met with the results we wanted. This involves a total reprogramming of your subconscious to eliminate the negative programming most of us receive from childhood on.

Over the years, this negative programming becomes internalized and holds us back from getting the things that we want for ourselves. This feeling that you can't have or worse yet, don't deserve success is reinforced by feeling envious of the success of others.

Belief that you don't deserve the good things in life changes our order from the cosmic ordering service as quickly as it would in a restaurant when you realize there isn't any money in your pocket.

Quantum physics is a scientific field which has opened new possibilities for thinking about the Universe. The rules are different than in the physics you remember from school and can be used a s a way to think about why some are more successful than others.

The brain emits powerful energy that can direct and change the smallest particle known to man, and those we haven't yet discovered. If a quark jumps a level, it is called a quantum leap. Just changing one level affects the structure of the atom and subsequently matter. If you could guide that change, anything is possible.

A lot of people don't think that we can really change our circumstances by thinking about them differently. Maybe these people have tried cosmic ordering, but without believing that it could work - and so it did not, at least in their case. One thing which we can learn from the world of physics is that an observer changes the outcome of a process by simply observing it. For example, if you were to watch a process while believing that it will fail to produce a result, then that's what will happen - you will have influenced the outcome just by being there as an observer - and not for the better!

If you have the proper instruction and get adequate practice, you'll find that you really can use the cosmic ordering system to get anything you want. This was well known to the ancients; it is the basis of the belief in prayer found in every religion. However, most of us now don't listen to science or religion and end up leading lives which leave us unsatisfied.

Training your mind to order the best for yourself is the right thing to do but you need help to clear away years of negative and poverty thinking. There are many aids today to speed the process and help you eliminate the failure pattern of the past and make room for the success of today.

Advanced cosmic ordering uses new developments in audio technology. By listening to special frequencies called binaural tones, you can tune your brain waves to the necessary frequency to communicate with the universe. This is the state which Buddhist monks spend years of meditation trying to reach.

Combined with self-hypnosis and subliminal affirmations, the new technology allows you to clear out the old patterns faster so you see the results at a more rapid pace.

Advanced cosmic ordering works. Once you have mastered the technique, everything you want really can be yours, but it will take some work on your part too.

Cosmic Ordering – What The Service Can Do For You

Cosmic ordering has gained a lot of publicity lately and is not surprising that more and more people are trying to learn more about this. People are beginning to take notice and are beginning to believe that it is possible to place an order for anything that you truly desire from the universe and actually receive it.

Since a number of celebrities are showing support for cosmic ordering people everywhere are jumping on the bandwagon. There is one question that still looms, what are the chances that an average person will find success with cosmic ordering?

Cosmic ordering can work for anyone. However, if you have been practicing cosmic ordering, but have not found success, you should look deeper into what you are doing. There is a good chance that your subconscious mind is blocking your attempts to place an order for what you really want.

Everybody has the right to use the cosmic ordering service, giving everybody a chance to receive what they really want. Of course many individuals will be quick to point out that they never asked to have financial problems or health issues and of course, they are correct.

The problem does not lie with the cosmic ordering service, but with the way that the desires are channeled. Try not to say things like, 'I really don't want to become ill'. This is an example of a negative way of seeking what you want.

Approach your request from a more positive aspect, asking for what you really want, rather than stating what you don't want. For example, saying 'I'm in such good health it's no surprise that I have never gotten ill'.

This is one area that many fail when the try to make affirmations or try to think positive. Instead of seeing themselves as they could be, they see themselves as they are. By doing this they are affirming their station in life but should be affirming the place that they should be and believing that they are receiving their cosmic order.

Throughout our lifetimes we begin to adopt the beliefs of other people. When people in our lives tell us negative things about ourselves we slowly begin to believe that these are truths. The belief that we had in ourselves is slowly replaced by the beliefs of the people in our lives.

If we were living in a perfect world, each and every child would be raised with the knowledge and support needed to clearly understand that they truly deserve the things that they desire. Instead, children are condition to believe that it is wrong to want a lot of material things. Kids are taught that it is wrong to receive things that are wanted unless they are earned with hours of hard work. Even then there should be a special reason for deserving the reward.

We should get out of the habit of saying that we should count our blessings. This is wrong and there is no reason why we should settle for next to nothing. The universe provides enough for everybody and there is no reason to cut ourselves shore.

If you feel that there are not enough riches in the universe and that you would have to covet the riches of other's in order to receive what you want, then you are reinforcing the belief that you have nothing and others have more. Instead, feel happy for people that have wealth and believe that there's enough in the world making it possible to have what you want without taking from others.

Does the power of positive thinking really work? Yes it does and to prove the point you should take a look at the scientific studies that prove that the human brain can create energy waves that can move a quark, the smallest physical particle known to man.

The hardest part of the whole process of cosmic ordering is being able to fully free ourselves of the negative beliefs that lie in our subconscious mind. The negative beliefs are very likely embedded firmly into our memories, but they must be cleared away. In order to do this you may need to use every tool that is available.

There is really nothing to worry about since there are some very powerful tools available. Using subliminal suggestion and self-hypnosis are two very powerful tools that can effectively target the subconscious mind. Once we gain access to this powerful region of our mind we are able to methodically begin sweeping out the negative that's that are blocking our attempts to use the cosmic ordering service.

You are able to control your own future, but you have to belief this with every fiber in your being. With the help of some powerful tools you will be able to clear any blockages that have been standing the way of using cosmic ordering to receive what you desire.

Why Successful People Use Cosmic Ordering

Everyone today is looking for ways to improve their lives. What they want is to live a fulfilled life, one in which they can get what they want and be able to enjoy what they already have. There are many options that will help you in realizing this dream but the best one is cosmic ordering.

What is cosmic ordering? It is a spiritual practice where you are able to get from the universe everything it is you want in life. You ask, or order something, and you will receive it. While this is a spiritual process, don't be swayed to think that you have to be a "Saint" and only do good things in order to get what it is you want from life. Yes, that's a benefit but not a requirement.

Cosmic ordering is simply spiritual manifestation of your dreams and goals. You are going to ask, or as they say order what you want from the universe. This could be anything from a change in your life to a change in circumstances that will lead to you attainment of your "wants."

As Deepak Chopra and Dr. Wayne Dyer insist, you must be aware of the field of intent in order to place your command before the universe. This is a field through which energy is transmitted, and is invisible in nature. It is at this level that our spirit connects to the cosmos and fulfillment of the desires occurs.

There is a high probability that cosmic ordering is something you have done without knowing that you are doing it. Think of all the times you have really wanted something and the wish has come true. You probably thought it was a coincidence. But actually it was cosmic ordering at work.

However this method depends on your ability to concentrate and the limits of your intention, within which your desires and belief condense. This leads to envisaging a new situation where you must believe that you deserve what you have been asking for, and keep in mind that you must be sincere in your effort of ordering it.

Merely saying that you want a new car or that you want a promotion is not enough. You must believe deep down in your heart that you deserve them. If you don't believe or don't put in any effort, in all likelihood you will not be getting them.

Cosmic ordering isn't really very hard. But of course, like everything else, it has its downsides as well. If you think about and believe in negative things, those things will be manifested.

If in your heart of hearts you think that you might get fired soon, then it'll affect your performance and you will get fired! If you consider instead that you deserve a car or a house, and strongly believe in it, you will get a car soon enough.

Most people have had so many years living in unhappy circumstances and seeing themselves as being 'undeserving' that it is impossible for them to manifest what they want.

Sometimes, it is your subconscious that works against you and tries to convince you that you do not deserve a change in your life.

For success at cosmic ordering you need to train your subconscious mind to make this change possible.

To do this, try a bit of meditation or self hypnosis. And believe in yourself!

The time has come for you to change your life as well. Use cosmic ordering and live the life you have always dreamt about.

Creating Affiliate Websites (part 1)

Many people are attracted to affiliate marketing, because they make the error of taking a myth for reality. First and foremost, possibly, is that they think that running an Internet company is simple and second, is that they believe that one can make a fortune through Internet marketing in an instant. Possibly not even 0.1% of those who are into affiliate marketing become rich quickly.

There may be a few people who achieved a great deal of success in only a short length of time after establishing an affiliate program website, but none of them will sincerely say that it was all good fortune. Anyone who is doing well in this sort of business will tell you that he or she worked very hard to get where he or she is right at the moment. Financial success in affiliate marketing takes time and hard work, but it is worth it.

If you are planning to set up an affiliate program, one of the things you have to think about is creating your own website and not just an ordinary website, but a professional-looking one. How do you put up an affiliate marketing website? What are the steps to building one? Well, first, you have to have already decided on the theme or niche of your website. It would be better if you already have some clue which products or services you plan to promote seeing that this will help you map the design and lay-out of your web pages.

The next job is to pick a domain name and get it hosted. The domain name is the unique name used to label the actual address of your website on the Internet. When choosing what domain name to register, look into the kind of goods you are promoting and the topic of your site.

Having the exact keywords in your domain name will give you a better chance of attracting more guests to your website and visitors mean money. Also, pick a top level domain and extension, such as 'teddybears.com', because they are more popular. In choosing your web host, mull over the security of the servers and their up-time warantees.

Now, you can start creating your webpages. Don?t be downcast if you do not understand much about this field. There are page-generation programs and fast-launch sites available online; you just have to look for them. Countless online sources can aid you build an affiliate marketing website, although you may want time to examine and learn the full process.

This is one of the reasons why your site or the goods you are ready to advertise needs to go with your interest. Creating your promotion website for the first time will be a great deal more pleasurable, if you like and know well the topic of your web site. If you don?t have time to make your own web site, you can use templates or purchase ready-made websites. The latter, however, is a more pricey alternative.

Creating an affiliate website on your own would be less expensive and more interesting. In the process of building your website, you could also enhance your knowledge in Information Technology and the use of computers, software and the Internet. As you instruct yourself in these fields, you are multiplying your advantage over other affiliate marketers.

It helps a great deal, though, if you already know the fundamentals of web page development such as programming languages and graphics software because then you can make your site especially professional, more convenient to use or easier to navigate. Furthermore, if you are knowledgeable and skillful in this area, you can concentrate more on the contents of the web pages rather than the design.

The Holy Spirit Is Not A Separate Person From The Father

The word spirit in Hebrew is ruach and in Greek it is pneuma and both of them mean 'wind.' These words are neither masculine or feminine. They are neuter terms. That means that they refer to the Spirit as an it or what not a who. Read Numbers 11:17. However, contrary to some positions, the Spirit is most assuredly NOT an impersonal force.

I would like to define what wind is first off. Wind is the movement of air. Let's break down just how the air moves. Wind is caused by energy from the sun heating parts of the earth unevenly. The warmer air is lighter because when something is warm it's particles spread out. The cool air is denser which makes the warm air rise and the cool air replaces it. This is called the process of convection and it is what causes wind on the earth. To break it down again, wind is the movement of air caused by an energy called heat. Wind is a force that we can feel and are certain that it is blowing. However, it is invisible to our eyes.

How can we apply this to the Spirit of the Lord? The Spirit is a force or energy that we cannot see, but when the Spirit works we can certainly know that it is working. John 3:8 "The wind (Grk. Pneuma for Spirit) bloweth where it listeth (desires or pleases), and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit."

The Spirit also imparts eternal life to those who receive it. So the Spirit is life. John 6:63 "It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." The word quickeneth means to make alive or to vitalize. So the Spirit is LIFE and POWER. It is the LIFE and POWER of God himself.

Let's further bolster the argument that the Holy Spirit is the power of God. Luke 1:35 uses Spirit and Power interchangeably. Luk 1:35 "And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God." Some might say, 'you make the Spirit a mere creature or agent and less than God.' This statement is made in complete ignorance. Trinitarians resort to this kind of argument when they are brought into a corner and have nowhere to go. To answer this charge I say this; God is a Spirit, that is what he is made up of. He is intangible, invisible and is life and power itself. The Spirit is the LIFE FORCE of God and is God himself. In John 3:8 the Spirit is likened unto wind and wind is the movement of air (invisible to the eye) caused by energy. The Holy Spirit is God himself among and in his people.

What about the areas where the Spirit is said to proceed from the Father? The Spirit of God is not a different person any more than your own human spirit is a different person than yourself. God is not limited to a personal body and can dwell in all places at once if he so desires. So if you had an omnipresent Spirit you can cause it to proceed from yourself to work, guide and direct people.

Jesus said to his disciples "I will not le ave you alone I will come to you" and in John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come." The word he and himself (though they are good translations) is not in the original text as a separate word. Many use this to say 'aha see the Spirit of God is a separate person from the Father and the Son.' However he and him are used based upon the object we are speaking about and the pneuma of God is not a he as though the Spirit is distinct from God our Father, rather the Spirit is an it (it's what God is). God is a Spirit and he will send his Spirit to lead us into all truth and it will not speak of itself. The Spirit testifies of Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ testifies of the Father. If you study John 14 through 16 you will see that Jesus and the Father send the Spirit, the Spirit proceeds from the Father, the Spirit is Jesus coming to his disciples and the Spirit takes of the things (his words, works and name) of Jesus (all he has is of the Father) and gives it unto us. In Ephesians 4:6 we learn that our God and Father is in us and in Col. 1:27 we find out that it is Christ in us. So, how do we reconcile all these different thoughts? God is in us, Christ is in us, the Father sends the Spirit, the Son sends the Spirit, the Spirit speaks not of itself and God is Spirit.

We have to start at the simple points that we do know and understand so that we can understand these mysteries. God is a Spirit that inhabits eternity and he is not limited by time and space. He can be in all places at once. The one mediator between God and men is the perfect MAN Christ Jesus. He IS limited by space because he is a man. He dwells in heaven and is our High Priest and Mediator who sits upon the Father's throne. Redemption and salvation can only take place IN and THROUGH Jesus Christ, the Son of God, our Kinsman-Redeemer. He willingly gave himself up as a sacrifice for our sins, he offered himself up through the eternal Spirit unto God. Now, he is our mediator, high priest and advocate. We come unto God through his Son. So when the Holy Spirit (it's God's life and power (life force)) does work among us it is always done through the work of Jesus Christ. The Spirit will testify of the Lord Jesus Christ and his work on the cross because that is God's means of saving a man or woman. Rom 8:9 "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his." Here is the Spirit of God and the Spirit of Christ are used interchangeably. This face tells us that God and Christ are one in the work of redemption that is going on now. God's Spirit comes to us and is available to us through the work of Christ. So the eternal Spirit that is God is also the Spirit of his Son for there is but ONE Spirit not two and not three. This is why Jesus made the comment that, John 14:23 "Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him." So the omnipresent Spirit (God who is our Heavenly Father) comes to us in the work and through the person of the man Christ Jesus, God's only begotten Son. The oneness of God and his Son is not some esoteric, mystical or philosophical unity (one God in three persons), but rather God working out his plan for redeeming mankind from sin and degradation. And he fulfills that plan in and through the person of his Son.
