Pathway To Revelations

Tongues Of Fire

Tongues Of Fire; edited Chapters Edit Text Chapter # 1 Acts 19,1-7: And it came to pass, that while Apolis was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, Vs. 2. He said unto them, have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. Vs. three, And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism. Vs. 4. Then said Paul; “John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance” saying unto the people, “that they should believe on him, which should come after him“. That is, on Christ Jesus. Vs. 5. When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Vs. six, And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues and prophesied. It is meet to bring into this book the message that Paul had declared to the Colossians; Paul gave to the Saints at Colossi, at that time, an insight that revealed the revelation that, he, Paul had received from God. Paul said that he had heard things that were unlawful for him to utter. 2 Cor. 12:2 (KJV) I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven. 2 Cor. 12:4 (KJV) How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. Many have sought to find out whether Paul was referring to himself or, of someone else; when Paul was referring about this man that he knew above fourteen years earlier. We have to look closely to how Paul described it when he was writing these passages of scriptures. Notice, that he, Paul, could not tell whether this man was in the body or out of the body. He could not have been referring to himself, for had he been referring to himself, he would have been allowed to enter into the light of God the father. We could also say that Paul did not know if he, himself, was in his body, or he was out of his body. We ask the question: Did Paul, being in this present world and body, ascend to Third Heaven? One could understand why so many have said this was Paul that was caught up. The only way that Paul would be caught up into the Third Heaven, would be that he would not have entered into the Third Heaven in his present body, he would have been in the Spirit, just as John was there in Revelation, when he received the Revelations of God. 2 Cor. 12:4-5 (KJV) How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. [5] Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities. I can say for certain that Paul did not Glory in himself at all. What I believe is that Paul, saw the Lord, just as Stephen saw the Lord on the right hand of God. Acts 7:55-56 (KJV) But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, [56] And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. Stephen, had he lived, he would have described what Paul was seeing and would have made the same statement about whether in the body or out of the body. Here we have these two men of God, who was allowed to see the Son of God at the right hand of the Power, or the Glory of God. This brings up the question, as to the Glory of God, and what is the Glory of God. We could say that many things describe the Glory of God, but to give a fair statement of what the Glory of God is, is to say that the Holy Ghost is the Glory of God. Jesus wanted to be Glorified by the father with the Glory that he had before the world was created. John 17:5 (KJV) And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. It is for certain that no one has seen God in his full Glory and to live to talk about it. John 1:18 (KJV) No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. Jesus created all things, and without him not anything was created, then, this existence of the Father that Jesus had before the Heaven and earth came into existence can only be the Holy Ghost. It was the Holy Ghost that is able to cause existence and today, that same Holy Ghost that was sent back from the father, it has brought back to God the Father those that have been separated from the Father since the fall of mankind. We must understand that to know the Father and to come to revelations of God, we cannot come to these revelations by anything that we have done or can do, that is, in our own efforts by our understanding. The existence of God, in this world, is not of the Flesh. When the High Priest made an offering to God, under the Law, God would not allow anyone of Aaron’s Seed, to offer the offering to the Lord. Leviticus 21:21 (KJV) No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the Lord made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God. We can rest assured that this flesh, that we occupy in this world is not holy and cannot please God...Romans 8:8 (KJV) So, then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. We, when we are coming to God, through the deeds of the Flesh, we cannot enter into the presence of God the Father. This alone, would attest to the Fact that Paul, did not, and could not have been caught up into the Third Heaven in his flesh. Those that believed in Jesus, those that followed him, for whatever reason, some followed to be able to sit on one side of him in his kingdom, others wanted to see miracles and some wanted to eat the loaves that he presented to them, yet when he told them that he would go away, they became very sad to the fact that he would leave them. Jesus said that it is expedient for him to go away. John 16:7 (KJV) Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. Who is this Him? This is God and his existence in the Person of God the Father. God the Son, and the Holy Ghost. You, the reader, must understand that what I am revealing to you, this is the existence, the Glory of God, This Holy Ghost is God, in the form of the Spirit, in this existence that we abide in. This existence was in Christ Jesus, and Christ Jesus is the Existence of God the Father and when we are caught up into the Sprit, we can and will receive from God the things that are prepared for us. How can this be that God can come into our hearts and take up his abode in our lives? This is why Paul wanted to know if those certain disciples had received the Holy Ghost or not. Acts 19:2 (KJV) He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. This brings up the question, does God the Father, God the Holy Ghost, and Jesus the Son of God, do they abide in those that confess their sins and receive forgiveness of sins? These were disciples of John, and had been baptized in water, confessing their sins. We can say that they were believers, for John had told them that they should repent and be baptized. Acts 19:3-4 (KJV) And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. [4] Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. I ask the question; Can you be; forgiven by Jesus and not have the Lord to live in your life? I believe here is where many today have stopped and have not entered into that fellowship with the Father through the Holy Ghost and have been misinformed or have not been informed of the Holy Ghost. It seems as though that the Devil is using the tool of Ignorance as the most powerful weapon on the church. We know that those that are not saved by the grace of God, they are ignorant of the ways of god, because they desire to be led away through error, yet why is it that those that have been baptized and are believers, they have not heard whether there be a Holy Ghost? Acts 19:2 (KJV) He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. God will and has held the Pastors of the Sheep of God, responsible for not telling the truth, yet we have those that are not, the Sheep of God, and are the disciples of Satan. We can conclude that Baptism, and repentance is a ordnance of obedience on our part. This is the act of Coming to God, which is done on our part. Hebrews 11:6 (KJV) But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. To receive a reward, one has to be willing, and to act upon or. take action to receive a reward. On the other Hand, Forgiveness is given without any merits done on the part of the individual. This is why that Jesus, when hanging on the cross forgave all mankind of their sins, even while they were crucifying him, he said this: Luke 23:34 (KJV) Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment and cast lots. Forgiveness has no conditions on the part of God the Father. You and I do have a condition, we must receive forgiveness or else, it is of none effect on our part. I had someone to say to me, Have you forgiven me, yet this individual, never said to me, “I’m Sorry for the thing that I have done to you.” We take comfort in knowing that God has forgiven us of our Sins, but the question is, are we, or should we understand that God is only near, to those, that are Sorry for their sins. Isaiah 57:15 (KJV) For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. You can see in this verse, that God, inhabits Eternity, and is saying that he dwells in a high and Holy Place, then he Goes on to say that he will dwell with, this means you and I, he will dwell with us, and not only with us, but in us, in our hearts. He makes it clear that the condition that must be there for him to come and take up his abode, this condition is, that the heart must be sorry for his sins and repentance is necessary for him to come and take up his abode. Romans 8:9 (KJV) 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. Let us, as Christians, know that our identity, as a Christian, is not this body that we see with our natural eyes, it is not of this world, our Identity is a Heavenly Identity. The Holy Ghost is The Great Seal, and when we are placed into the kingdom of God the father, through the Holy Ghost, this body is not what is entered into that Kingdom, our Identity is not this body, our existence now is in Heaven, and God the Father and Jesus comes to us in the Person of the Holy Ghost, takes up his abode in the Identity of our born again experience, the conversion of this earthy man, now becomes a new creature, not this body, the individual that we become, is not a residence of this world, the residence is in the Holy Ghost. Jesus made the statement as mentioned earlier, that it was expedient for him to God Away. Had Jesus stayed in the flesh, then Satan would have been able to reside in the flesh, as he now does, and would have still been able to come into the presence of God the father. Jesus was God Manifested in the flesh, and Satan came in those individuals, walked right up to him, and presented themselves to him. Matthew 8:29 (KJV) And behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time? Those sprits of Satan, just as God the Father was in his son Jesus...Matthew 3:17 (KJV) And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. We can say the same about receiving the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is ready to distribute, not only forgiveness, but it is also ready to bring to the Believer, upon the confession and belief in God the Son, the presence of all three of the Trinity. John 14:23 (KJV) 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. These words that Jesus spoke, was the words of the Father. John 14:10 (KJV) Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. The works that he was talking about is, those many miracles that he did on earth while he was walking among men. We have to understand that Jesus had been given all Power in heaven. to accomplish his mission on earth. This included the power to forgive and to cleans each of us from our sins, to keep those that the father had given to him. John 17:5-26 (KJV) And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. [6] I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. [7] Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. [8] For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. [9] I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. [10] And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. [11] And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are. [12] While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. [13] And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves. [14] I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. [15] I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. [16] They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. [17] Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. [18] As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world. [19] And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. [20] Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; [21] That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. [22] And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: [23] I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. [24] Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. [25] O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. [26] And I have declared unto them thy name and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them. Here we can see that the Holy Ghost that is to come to the believers, that which came on the day of Pentecost, this is the Glory and the Power of the Forgiveness to those that call upon him and receive his forgiveness, those that desire to follow and to keep the words that Jesus spoke to mankind and in those words is live eternal. John 6:63 (KJV) It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. Here is the error of the Wicked and those that careless take of God’s Words and look to man, which is flesh, to fulfill the desires that they have to have someone to tell them they have life, when they themselves will not so much, read the word of God and depend on man to tell them everything is ok with them. My God’ will God’s people wake up and go to the upper room and assemble and toss all of the manmade garbage into the garbage dump and receive that what Paul was asking of those Disciples there in the upper coast of Ephesus. Have you received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? This is the 64ooo.oo dollar question. The lord’s Prayer states for the Lord to Give us this day, our daily bread. Matthew 6:11 (KJV) Give us this day our daily bread. Jesus sat down at the earthly table and broke bread and told his disciples that it was his body. Matthew 26:26 (KJV) And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. Jesus was saying that you and I will be broken through persecutions and trials and when we are broken like a piece of bread, to remember that as he was broken on the cross, we too will suffer persecutions. 2 Tim. 3:12 (KJV) Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. That bread that they ate was to let them know that they were to be left in the world in the flesh and to continue on under great tribulations, and to bear the reproaches that befall each of those that live godly. Then he took of the cup of wine and said: Luke 22:17 (KJV) And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: This cup was not to divide those that sat there, but they were to divide it among themselves and to drink of the same cup. This is the Holy Ghost that was to come to each of them and with this cup of the Spirit they were to divide among themselves and become equal. This is why on the day of Pentecost, those that receive the Holy Ghost went and sold all of their possessions and distributed it equally among them. The JOY of the Holy Ghost was so presence that they could only think of what Jesus had said. Divide it among yourselves. Here is the outpouring of what was referred to as his blood that was shed for their sins. Here is what Paul was referring to when he asked those Disciples that question, “Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed”? Paul wanted to divide the Cup unto those that had not experienced that great experience. Someone said that when a believer receives the Holy Ghost, they want everyone to have it too. When you get saved, you want everyone saved, yet somewhere along the way, most lose sight of the saving grace and begin to lose the desire for to talk about Jesus. God warned in Revelation, that there were those that had lost their first love. Rev. 2:4 (KJV) Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee because thou hast left thy first love. We have a stern warning as to the remedy to that problem, and also what will happen to those that do not repent and find that first love. Rev. 2:5 (KJV) Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. Just what is a candlestick for? It is to hold a candle in and to give light to those that are in darkness. We may have many candlesticks that are there, but unless there is a candle in the candle holder, and that candle is burning, it is of no value except to look pretty. The Holy Ghost is the fire that is burning in our candle, John said that this fire would come to us after we repent and believe and be baptized. Matthew 3:11 (KJV) I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire. What he is saying, is, that after you repent and be baptized, turn from your wicked ways, then God the Father will, along with Jesus Christ, Come and take up their Abode in, or we might say, Place you into the kingdom of God, Place you in the Holy Ghost, to make you and I to be able to sit with Jesus Christ in Heavenly Places...Ephes. 2:6 (KJV) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: Can you the reader understand that the Holy Ghost is this: Exodus 38:21 (KJV) This is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted, according to the commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest. When Moses was erecting the Tabernacle, this tabernacle would only be a temporary place for God to Meet with them, this making of the Tabernacle was a Shadow of Better things to come...Hebrews 9:11 (KJV) But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; The Shadow of that Tabernacle was Jesus Christ, which Was the High Priest, which was to offer up the sacrifice of Himself. Hebrews 10:1 (KJV) For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. Those that served that Tabernacle, were not permitted to be partakers of the Promise that We, today are able to partake of. Hebrews 11:39 (KJV) And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: He is speaking of all those that offered up the sacrifices on the Alters made of wood and stone, metal, or whatever this was, it was a shadow of the Alter that we have. These were not the ones that were present to receive the Holy Ghost, the Promise of God, into their hearts, The Holy Ghost moved upon them, and proclaimed the coming of the real High Priest. I ask the question; do you think that the Holy Ghost is ever depleted? Certainly, it is always there, we need to stay hooked to the Olive Tree. Rev. 1:13 (KJV) And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. Is Jesus in the middle of a Church when there is no light in that Church? Jesus stands in the middle of the Candlesticks and is the Light of those Candles. John 8:12 (KJV) Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. We have to understand that there is another light that is in the world and that light is the light of Darkness, which those that do not follow Jesus, will find themselves walking in Darkness. 2 Cor. 11:14-15 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. [15] Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. Here we can see that Satan is working hard to withhold from God’s disciples the promise that is shed upon the church. This promise of the Father is what brings the Father and Jesus Christ into the world and into the hearts of the Christians. Jesus forgave the world of its sins, but the world will have to come to the forgiver and to confess before the world that they accept the forgiveness and to turn from their wicked ways and to follow him, and to walk in the Spirit of the Lord. In fact, the bible states that if we are to worship the father, we are to do it in the Spirit of God. John 4:23 (KJV) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. There is a lot of people that worship, yet many do not know what they worship. John 4:21-24 (KJV) Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. [22] Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. [23] But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. [24] God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. This Samaritan woman had come to the same place as these disciples that Paul had encountered, she did not know where and what to worship, she was going about her way in life and had been a victim of Ignorant leadership, by those who had themselves placed burdens upon mankind and they, themselves would not lift one finger to relieve them. Matthew 23:4 (KJV) For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. I want to reveal to the reader that Satan, we all think of him as being an Angel and this is true, but what we need to know that Satan has transformed himself into an Angel Of Light. 2 Cor. 11:14 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. You the reader must understand that, not only did Satan transform himself into an angel of light, he has those, in the flesh, that he is able to direct them to become ministers of light also. What I am talking about is that those ministers that follow this angel of light, they will go to great extremes to make themselves into disciples of the Lord Jesus but notice that they are not ministers that are called by and anointed be God, they are anointed or directed by that Same spirit that is from the angel of Darkness. All through the bible it is said to all of us, that we are to take heed, that we be not deceived. There was a spirit that came before God, this spirit was to go out and become a lying spirit, and to deceive those that are foolish to listen to that spirit. 1 Kings 22:21-23 (KJV) And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. [22] And the Lord said unto him, Wherewith? And he said, “I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade him, and prevail also: go forth, and do so. [23] Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee. Believe me, there are those that confess that they know Jesus Christ as lord and Savior and will deceive you into thinking that they are genuine and real, at the same time they will, with crafty lying deceiving words, will take you down at a heartbeat. They are good at what they do. Matthew 24:5 (KJV) For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. Matthew 24:11 (KJV) And many false prophets shall rise and shall deceive many. Mark 13:6 (KJV) For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. Satan would be very foolish to deny that there is a God, all he wants you and I to do is to let him be the God of our lives. This is the reason of his downfall from the truth, and he has been very busy convincing many that he is God. The messenger of Satan that God left in Paul’s flesh and mind, was to keep him humble and not to let Paul think more highly of himself than he should think. 2 Cor. 12:7 (KJV) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. These TV preachers and let me say that not all of them that come on TV is there to deceive you and I, but you must realize that many want to rob you of all that they can get, so that they can build themselves great castles on this earth, and they do all of this in the name of Jesus Christ. You might wonder why I am writing this, in the way that I am. The reason is, I will ask you a question, Where are they when you need them, when you are in the Hospital? And how many do you see around your community that receive a check in the mail, when they cannot buy clothes for your children? Ask them to send you some of that money that they have heaped up in piles and see what answer you get. Yes, they Preach Jesus Christ, and I could very well preach Jesus Christ too and at the same time deceive you into thinking that I am a great man of God and at the same time, you could be very well convinced that it is so with me. Ephes. 4:14 (KJV) That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; This is the most effective tool that Satan has used ever since he came to Eve in the Garden and he has drawn more away from God, using this tool. In fact, this tool can be explained as the Commandant of God. It was the commandant of God that was to let Eve and Adam know, and to keep them from doing that which was contrary, or should we say, that which is not God’s ways. It was disobedience that got Adam and Eve out of the presence of the paradise of God. Genesis 3:1 (KJV) Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? He quoted the words exactly as God had said, yet he added to the words so that he could convince here that God had not told the truth to her. Today many have been told that they too do not have to worry about God, casting them out of his presence, that they can be anything and do anything they want and still enter into heaven. 2 Peter 2:19 (KJV) While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. This World was in a state of Ciaos because of Satan. Satan corrupted this world before Adam was created, to the point that that existence became extinct. This corruption, that Satan caused, this is what caused the earth to become dark and caused it to become void. Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Satan here in the beginning was the light among the other angels on the earth and the light of God, Jesus Christ, was shining upon him, he was; a reflection of that light, and when he decided to overrule God, Satan convinced one third of the other angels to follow him in the attempt to overthrow of God. The Light of Jesus no longer shined upon him, and he was no longer an angel of light. Satan found himself in the Darkness, and caused the light, no longer shine upon the earth. This is when the earth froze over, and in freezing over, all of the life that existed become frozen...Job 38:30 (KJV) The waters are hidden as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen. The waters refer to multitudes of People, or existence...Rev. 17:15 (KJV) And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. Satan, who Transformed himself, just as many today, with the help of Satan, they transform themselves into ministers of righteousness. There was no moon or Sun at that time, in that era, the only light that was there was the light of Jesus Christ. Satan was like the moon, he only shined when the light of the Sun shines upon it. As the moon gives light, the moon cannot give the full, or be a light itself, it only can reflect the light of the Sun. When we depart from God and loose our first love, God said that he would remove his candlestick, his light, from our lives. This is what happened to Satan and the Fallen Angels that followed him. These fallen Angels were chained in Darkness...Jude 1:6 (KJV) And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. These chains is Sin, and we all know that Sin is very Dark, When men and women walk in Darkness...1 John 1:6 (KJV) If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: Just what is this Darkness? This is the Flesh, the Habitation of Sin, and we can Say that it is the Habitation of Satan...Romans 7:18 (KJV) For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. Paul found that in his Flesh, there was the voice of Satan. Those that come before you, and walk among you, they too, will place thorns in your mind and spirit. You got to do this, or you do that, and do not do this or that. These Thorns will rob you of all of your Joy. Luke 10:3 (KJV) Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. These feast with you...Jude 1:12 (KJV) These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; This is why that Geneses stated that the Earth was Void, and Darkness was upon the face of the Deep. This Deep was that existence that existed in that era. You might think that Adam was the First man, then why would he be commanded to replenish the earth...Genesis 1:28 (KJV) And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. God told Noah the same thing...Genesis 9:1 (KJV) And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. That existence had to be dealt with, just as it was dealt with in the days of Noah. The earth was in ciaos at this time and God’s creation had slipped into darkness and the wisdom of God, which is Jesus Christ, was withdrawn from the earth and it left the earth void and darkness was upon the face of the deep. God at this part of the era, evidently, there was no moon and sun, because Jesus was the light that shined upon that existence. Satan was what the moon is today, he was the reflection of the True light, yet he found that the light did not shine on him anymore and therefore he fell from Truth. (Heaven) and was cast down in his Imaginary. He was left to wander in the chains of Darkness and all of his Angels that fell with him was bound in the Chains of Darkness until the judgment. 2 Peter 2:4 (KJV) For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; God had a choice to make at this point of this era. God could have destroyed, and would have, destroyed all existence, this would include the earth itself. God as he did at the Cross, put his mercy into action in its greatest sense, and he displayed what he is all about. As Moses said there when God wanted to destroy all of the children of Israel that had been delivered from bondage, when those worshiped an Idol that they made, at the bottom of the mount, when Moses was receiving the Law, God wanted to start a new nation again, with Moses, but Moses, this Prophet that knew God, Face to Face, stood between God’s Judgment and portrayed what God was, Moses portrayed the Mercy, even when they, the children of Israel, deserved to die. We can see God in the actions of Moses, this man of Flesh, who knew God face to face...Exodus 33:11 (KJV) And the Lord spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle. Exodus 33:12-23 (KJV) And Moses said unto the Lord, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up these people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight. [13] Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people. [14] And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. [15] And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence. [16] For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in that thou goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth. [17] And the Lord said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name. [18] And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory. [19] And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy. [20] And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live. [21] And the Lord said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock: [22] And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a Clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by: [23] And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen. Now, I would that ye, the reader, pay close attention to what the Lord is doing here with Moses. First of all, God came as close as he could to this carnal man, this man Moses. The reason is that God came to him is, Moses was a friend of God. Jesus said to those there... John 3:29 (KJV) He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. God’s Joy is being fulfilled in Moses, because, for the simple fact, Moses Heard God’s Voice. Now pay close attention, God has spoken in these last days, His voice is what we need to hear, not some carnal man’s voice. Moses went up high into the mountain to be along with God. We need to climb that mountain, not Mount Sinai, but the mountain of God. Exodus 3:1 (KJV) Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian: and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, even to Horeb. As Moses was led to the backside of the Desert, a desert is a place of dry and where little or no life exists, God leads his people to the place where man does not tread, in order to get his attention. Paul, after being converted, went to the back side of Arabia, there to find his revelations...Galatians 1:17 (KJV) Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia and returned again unto Damascus. Many years that I have known the Lord, I like many, looked to those of high standards, or at least I thought they were of higher standard, these were not my source of revelation. Like Paul, my revelation of knowledge cometh not of this generation of ministers of the flesh, but cometh from the Holy Ghost. This is the Mountain that led Moses to the top of Sinai. Moses was treading up a stony incline, yet he did not realize like many, or maybe he did realize, he was walking the mountain of the Holy Ghost. Satan has, like most today, he has looked to the carnal, the temporal, to put his trust in, and he has built him a reputation on this earth as on that has all the answers. Satan was that anointed cherub. that corrupted the existence of the Earth, which is mentioned in Genesis. Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Satan did it then, and he has been at it ever since. Listen to what God is saying here with Ezekiel...Ezekiel 28:12-13 (KJV) Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. [13] Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. This Tyrus, the place where the flesh had attained such honor among the flesh, a place where everyone wanted to be, and just about everyone from over the planet had placed themselves into the trust of this place and its care. God is here trying to show you and I how and where Satan’s Seat is...Rev. 2:13 (KJV) I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth. Look close at this scripture and you will know where Satan’s seat is. Where you find Hate, murder, lying, deceitfulness, you will find that in that Individual, in that individual’s heart is the Seat where Satan Sits. God anointed this Cherub, and gave him the wisdom of the world, yet he did not like to retain God in his heart. Romans 1:28 (KJV) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Romans speaks of the seat of Satan, in these individuals, who burn with lust, men and women lusting toward each other, even the same doing that which is not convenient. Now this is a touchy subject, but I must warn all that this is not of God of truth, but this action, or lifestyle is of the God of this world. I hope that you can see and realize how that the first Son born to Adam and Eve, how he became the Seed of Satan. In Cain we do see that Hate and Murder was there, and this was not the son of the flesh that came out of the Womb, that flesh could do nothing, but that Eve invited this Prince, this cherub, into their lives and, the results can be seen in Cain. Satan had taken the Incarnate in Cain and took up his abode once in the existence of this generation that God had put into the earth once again. Satan knew that he was doomed and by his subtlety he found for himself, not only a seat to sit in, but he also found himself a home, or a dwelling place. Satan, this cherub, went to work as usual, and became very busy, still thinking that he had kicked God out of his Seat, which is the Heart of Mankind. As Moses walked up that Mountain, being in the flesh, Satan, this anointed cherub, walked right up into the presence of God, and had God allowed him, he would have done to Moses, like he did unto Able. This Moses, was a similitude of Jesus Christ... Acts 7:37 (KJV) This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. Moses was not that Prophet, but was a friend of that Prophet, therefore god displayed the mercy of God in this Moses and allowed him to receive a Twofold Promise Of God. As Moses received the Law, upon the table of Stones, he also, through being a friend of God, Moses received the Promise that you and I have today. Moses was allowed to see the Promise Land, this land was not what was to be the dwelling place of those Children, which was so rebellious and corrupted their ways often, the eyes of Moses was looking to Jesus Christ the Author and the finisher of our faith. Hebrews 12:2 (KJV) Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. Had Moses looked only at the fields of the valley before him only, there would be no Holy Ghost to set our affections upon. Thank God for Holy and just men that carried the seed of God through so many obstacles, yet they remained convinced that the Promise would be as the Lord said. Flesh looks at the carnal, and when great deeds are wrought, they get carried away with these deeds, they become dependent upon those miracles that is performed, that they look not beyond the situation, and look not to the Joy that is set before them. Now I am not condemning miracles, wish to god there were more, yet as Paul said...1 Cor. 13:1-4 (KJV) Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. [2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. [3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. [4] Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 1 Cor. 13:8 (KJV) Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. 1 Cor. 13:13 (KJV) And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. To Web Site Down To Here. 1-19-08 Chapter # 1 ============================== Chapter # 2 This is what the Holy Ghost is. 1 John 4:8 (KJV) He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. 1 John 4:16 (KJV) And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. I hope that you will see the most precious Gift that God had for the World. When Jesus was hanging there and Satan, the anointed cherub, that covereth, just what did he cover? Satan done in his most vivid manner, he tried to cover the Face of God, so that those that want to see god, Satan wanted to remember what God said to Moses...”you cannot see my full Glory and live.” Satan, there at the cross, wanted to be the Rock that would hide the face of God the Father from all of those there at the foot of the cross. Another Place where it is written, we can see that God will have his way, and his precepts will abide and triumph over all other promises. Exodus 12:21-23 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. [22] And ye shall take a bunch of hyssops, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. [23] For the Lord will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the Lord will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you. Jesus said it: John 12:31 (KJV) Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. Those that are looking for the three and half of the first part of Tribulation and have been blinded by those that say that you had better open your eyes and see the real truth. This verse tells the sum of the whole matter. Jesus took that three and half years of tribulation, he took the curse, which it is, and took it upon himself and nailed it to the cross. He then, there, and then removed the curse from his people, he judged Satan and the world, then as Daniel said, for the overspreading of Abominations...Daniel 9:27 (KJV) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week, he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. He made the place there in Jerusalem, which had rejected the Son of God, he made it desolate. This was done with the blood of the Lamb, that is mentioned where they were to take the hyssop and dip it in the blood of the Lamb that was slain, then place it upon, not on the door post there in Egypt, but the Hyssop was dipped in vinegar, God then took this Hyssop and placed the blood upon all that will come and kneel at the foot of the cross, to let the blood run down upon their sin stained lives...Isaiah 1:18 (KJV) Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. At this precise time, or at that moment, Satan was Cast out of the Mountain of God and no longer can go up into the mountain of God with God’s anointed. The great Seal is placed upon Satan, and he is sealed to the day of consummation. This day is when God, would have and would have consumed mankind from the face of the earth like he had done before. This did not happen because, as I said, Mercy...James 2:13 (KJV) For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment. God has now given us two thousand years of mercy, which is in the years of man, this could only be two days in the sight of the lord...2 Peter 3:8 (KJV) But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. I shall now take you to a reference to this effect that might enlighten you to how close that the consummation is. Hosea 6:1-3 (KJV) Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. [2] After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. [3] Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth. Here the prophet is declaring to us, that God has Smitten, this he did to his chosen People Israel, as Daniel said he makes it Desolate. Those that reject God, although the door is always open to salvation, they are desolate of the truth, and walk in darkness. God, through Jesus Christ, took the blood and mercy and overspread the Abominations, this means that he, God the Father will not look upon the sins of mankind, for he only will look through the blood of Jesus, and through the blood, he sees the sins as white as snow. So, he has smitten and torn, but as the prophet said, after two days, this could be the two thousand years that is about past, this could be the two days that he is talking about. Remember that God reveals his secrets to his servants. After two thousand years, or two days in the lord’s eyes, he will revive us, in the third thousand years, or third day in the eyes of the lord, we shall live in his sight. Could this be the Millennium, could we be on the threshold of the coming of the lord to this earth to set up his reign for a thousand years. This, my friend could be the consummation that Daniel spoke about, and we just might be near the final hour that everyone is talking about. Ezekiel 28:14-19 (KJV) Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. [15] Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. [16] By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore, I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. [17] Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. [18] Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore, will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all of them that behold thee. [19] All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more. Here is the end of the Flesh that we know, the works of the flesh, and the pride of life and the lust thereof. God at this era, reached down into the earth, for God sees through Darkness and sees past all obstacles, God then reached down and took to himself a handful of Dust. (when dirt is frozen, so cold, it becomes very dry) Like freeze dried coffee. This was when Adam was created, and this was done at the Cross, God did the same and took from the dry dust, that flesh that had no hope and he breathed upon those dry bones...Ezekiel 37:3-14 (KJV) And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest. [4] Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. [5] Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: [6] And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord. [7] So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone. [8] And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them. [9] Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. [10] So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army. [11] Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. [12] Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves and bring you into the land of Israel. [13] And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, [14] And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the Lord have spoken it, and performed it, saith the Lord. God asked the prophet if the things and times that had been brought on by Satan, that darkness that was upon mankind, as the woman at the well, who did not know where to worship, and Jesus said...John 4:22 (KJV) Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. He then goes on to tell her how and who God is looking for to worship him...John 4:23-24 (KJV) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. [24] God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. God then took this dust and breathed upon it, and this is the breath that Jesus breathed upon his disciples, as he said: John 20:22 (KJV) And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: This same breath is the breath that God breathed upon Adam and then this dust became a living, Soul. Genesis 2:7 (KJV) And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Jesus wants us to become a living Soul, and not dead in our sins and trespasses. God wants to quicken us that we can live forever and never die. This is what the Second Adam was. 1 Cor. 15:45 (KJV) And so, it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. And as Christ became a living quickening Spirit, so we are quickened by that same spirit, and we too shall never die. John 11:26 (KJV) And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? It was disobedience that got Satan kicked out of Heaven. Jesus said these words: Luke 10:18 (KJV) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. We need to understand that to lose sight of Truth, is to lose sight of Jesus himself. Jesus is the Truth and the Way. Eve was to be the mother of all living: Genesis 3:20 (KJV) And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living. After the Sin of Adam and Eve, Adam named his wife Eve, She was, this is past tense, written to declare that she could have been the mother of those that lived forever. She was the mother that disobeyed God and became the mother of the living among the earth and would bear a seed that would, down through time would bring forth the seed that would give birth to that which was eternal life. We notice that Eve gave birth to those that died, as all mankind has done since Adam. 1 Cor. 15:22 (KJV) For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. We could say that the Virgin Mary had become the mother of all living, those that walk and live in the Spirit. If in Adam all die, then in Christ shall all that come to him and believe in him and walk in him, they are the true living and shall never die. John 11:26 (KJV) And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? Had Eve taken of the Tree of Life, there in the mist of the Garden, she would have not given birth to those that die, she would have not had a murder and a liar for a son, she would have had children that were partakers of the eternal life and would have had the same body that Jesus had when he arose from the dead. We know that Jesus Eat and drink after he arose from the dead. John 21:12-13 (KJV) Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. [13] Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise. There is a question as to whether he did eat since he said that he would not drink with the disciples until he drank with them in the kingdom of God. Matthew 26:29 (KJV) But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. He said that he would not drink of the fruit of the vine, he was saying that his blood would be shed forth and then in the kingdom this would be the coming of the Holy Ghost and with the Holy Ghost coming into the believers, God the father and the Son, would drink of the Spirit with each of those that would take the cup of the Spirit. We must realize that as the disciples were forgiven and were followers of the Lord and that with the Power given to Jesus, none of them were lost while he walked and he kept all of them, except Judas Iscariot, that the scriptures be fulfilled, yet he said all along that the kingdom of God has come nigh to them. Luke 10:9 (KJV) And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you. Jesus, and the Holy Ghost and the Father, which is the Power of Heaven was walking among them and this was the Kingdom of God that was there, and this is why Jesus said that he must go away, so that the Comforter would come. On the day of Pentecost, the Kingdom of God was set up in the hearts of those that were there, and as Jesus said: Mark 9:1 (KJV) And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power. Those that stood there with Jesus, some of them lived to see the outpouring of the Holy Ghost and saw the Kingdom of God come to mankind and with the power and with great glory. Mankind has been promised that he shall live in the kingdom of God and that is a true statement, but we must realize that in the Holy Ghost, we are in the Kingdom of God and this Kingdom is not a fleshly Kingdom as most had hoped that Jesus would set up when he came the first time. 2 Peter 3:13 (KJV) Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. This new Heaven and Earth exists in Jesus Christ, and we already have a place prepared for us and actually in Faith, we already exist in this new kingdom, as we walk in the Holy Ghost. Ephes. 2:6 (KJV) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: Part 2 Posted On Web January 11, 2008 Chapter # 3 As John saw those standing around the Throne. Rev. 19:11-16 (KJV) And I saw heaven opened and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. [12] His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. [13] And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. [14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. [15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. [16] And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. We have to remember that John was in the Spirit, this Sprit is God, for God is a Spirit. John 4:24 (KJV) God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. Let this sink down deep into your ears and listen to what God is saying to us, as Jesus told the woman at the well. John 4:23 (KJV) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. Now is the hour to worship God in Spirit and Truth. This is why Paul wanted these disciples there to have the Holy Ghost. Paul was caught up in the Spirit and saw Revelations. Paul wanted to convey those these Revelations to those he ministered too. Many will not take heed to the words that Paul spoke of, for they were carnal and today many are carnal minded, so that the truth is evil spoken of. 2 Peter 2:2 (KJV) And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. These that stand and tell of all of the Glory that God has bestowed upon them, look at the life they live and look at what the disciples had to encounter and ask the question, is their life a life of luxury? Most are dressed in clothes that startle the mind, They live in Luxurious style. These are what Jude spoke of: Jude 1:12 (KJV) These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Now this may sound as though that I am judging them, this is not my judgment, this is to let you know that Satan has his ministers of Righteousness that walk among the saints of God. We must take heed that we be not deceived into following them. We must keep our eyes, not on man, but on Jesus Christ. 2 Cor. 11:14-15 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. [15] Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. Their end shall be according to their works, not of the faith, and we all know that we are not justified by works alone. Romans 4:2 (KJV) For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God. As long as we can justify ourselves with our works, allow men and women to glory in our flesh, then we will be found wanting. John 14:6 (KJV) Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. The evidence is when the lord called to Adam and Eve, they hid themselves among the trees of the Garden. Is not this what man does today, he will hide himself behind the robes of religion. There are those churches that spend all of their effort hiding the truth from those that would come to the truth. Matthew 23:15 (KJV) Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. These go to a great expense and great trouble to get those that, are ignorant to the word of God, to follow their pernicious ways. 2 Peter 2:2 (KJV) And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. We are warned to not be deceived. Luke 21:8 (KJV) And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. Deception is the tool that Satan used in the Garden and that tool is used to destroy, or to undermine your faith and trust in God. Satan took the Commandant and used it. The Subtle Beast Beguiled, God’s prize creation, to fall from the presence of the Holy Ghost. From that time on and now yet, mankind is not listing to God’s Voice, and has listened to the Messenger of Satan that Paul spoke of. 2 Cor. 12:7 (KJV) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. Have you noticed that when people disagree, there is contention, debate, strife, and sedition? 1 Cor. 3:3 (KJV) For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? As long as Satan can get you and I to break a commandant, he then will whisper into your ear, just how unrighteous you are. Just remember that those that sit in the judgment of others and who are self-righteous, who think of themselves as something, whatever it is that they are, Paul said it didn not make any difference to him. 2 Cor. 10:12 (KJV) For we dare not make ourselves of the number or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise. Will we ever be enlightened to the fact that the Messenger of Satan is left in us, to buffet us, that God had to leave it there to keep us from exalting ourselves above measure. 2 Cor. 12:7 (KJV) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. Paul concluded that after he had wrestled within himself that he, in himself, found that he had become a miserable individual. Romans 7:24 (KJV) O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? Wretched, this word means: wretched, miserable, desolate, heartbroken pitiful, dejected & abject, This body that we occupy has the sentence of death upon it. This was the sentence for the crime of disobedience. Romans 8:13 (KJV) For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Adam and Eve chose to live after the flesh. Genesis 2:16-17 (KJV) And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: [17] But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. From this scripture we can see that Satan, as he disobeyed God, he fell from the presence of God’s Light into darkness, or should we say, into death, he wanted to cause Eve to partake of the Tree. This tree is to make one wise. Eve saw the tree and that it would make her wise. Genesis 3:6 (KJV) And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. Today if one would become wise in the world and wanted to advance in this present world, one would go to Yale or Harvard and in doing so, one would become wise in the world and would be able to gain authority. To have a degree in Law is to say that you are wise and know the Law. The only trouble is that many, that study the Law, want to take the Law, and use it to gain control of those around them. What I am trying to reveal to the reader is, the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, this is the commandant, or the Law that God placed into existence for his creation. God’s Law governs the universe and the host of the Heavens. When one of the Meteorite is gets out of the realm of the Law of Gravity, it is thrown into, or out of its orbit, it becomes displaced. It begins to travel on a course that will endanger other Space objects that come into its path. We could say that Satan, was displaced when he fell from heaven, and, as he came by the garden of Eden, he did what a meteorite would do, he caused great harm to mankind. In essence he dislodged God’s creation of mankind. God then had to gather the fragments of those that was dislodged from the presence of God and his Law. The Law of God is basically what holds the whole creation together, and in that Law, we can conclude that life existed and would have traveled in a path, on its course that would have existed forever, had mankind not have taken the blunt of Satan’s anger. Satan took the Law, he thought he would do away with God’s creation, or if he could enter into the heart of Mankind, he himself would be able to Dislodge God from the creation. Thus, the Law of God, which is good, was taken by Satan, through his devices and his wisdom, he was able to rob mankind of the Glory of God and man become the victim of Death, instead of Eternal Life, which is what he was able to do with Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve had the Tree of Eternal Life there in the Garden, just as we have today, we have the Tree of Eternal Life that we can choose to take and when we take of the Tree of life, we can live forever, this is what God wanted for his creation in the Garden of God. Genesis 2:9 (KJV) And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. I want you, the reader, to have a knowledge of just what this life is and what is there for you. Just as Adam and Eve, we still today walk in the Garden, or when we partake of the Love of Christ, we are walking up to the Tree of Life, we can live forever. We must be partakers of that tree. Col. 1:12 (KJV) Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: The Earth was void and darkness was upon the face of the Deep. Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Satan became disobedient to God and his Laws. Not only did he become disobedient, but he also caused one third of the host of heaven to follow him. When Adam and Eve had the first child, she made the statement that she had gotten a child from The Lord. Genesis 4:1 (KJV) And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord. This Child, had it been a child of God, would have been the righteous seed of God that would have carried the seed of god, for the deliverance for mankind, or would have carried the seed that was to deliver mankind back to God. Eve wanted a child for the seed to come through, and we can see that this seed that prevailed in the womb, came by disobedience that she yielded to there in the Garden. Satan had, in one sense took first place with God’s creation and had been able to come into the Flesh, take priority over God, by the action or will of Adam and Eve. Today we can see the same trails that are left by the spirit of Satan. Those that are not of God, those that are disciples of Satan, they love to be out front and in charge or, in authority over others, they are there and will do just about anything, to hold onto their position that they have. We can see how that Jesus, who was the last Adam, he was not of the Earth, like the first Adam, Jesus was a quickening Spirit. 1 Cor. 15:45 (KJV) And so, it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Cain was the Seed of Satan that had come through Eve. He had gotten into God’s creation. From that time on, Satan started his revenge on God and his creation. Notice that Cain never offered to God, that which pleased God. Genesis 4:5-6 (KJV) But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very worth, and his countenance fell. [6] And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou worth? and why is thy countenance fallen? Cain wanted to offer God, that which he wanted, on the other hand Able, wanted to, Give God the best that he had. Do you think that God wants your Money? Do you think that when you give that to him that, he, is well pleased with you? Amos 5:20-25 (KJV) Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it? [21] I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies. [22] Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts. [23] Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols. [24] But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. [25] Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel? Luke 20:46 (KJV) Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; Cain wanted his brother out of his sight. Cain was walking among the same territory. Cain rose up and killed his brother. Satan stood before another woman, but this time things were to be different. This woman had a different testimony. She, when chosen by God to bring into the world a child, she said these words; Luke 1:38 (KJV) And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. Here is another woman, but this time it is different. Adam knew his wife and she conceived. This time it was not an earthly man that is to be the Father. This child is from Heaven. This is God coming into the World and into the womb of this Virgin, signifying to those there, that God the Father was bringing in a hope that could and would endure forever. Mary was still under the Law, and had to abide by the Law in the ordnances, to comply to the very letter of the law. Galatians 4:4 (KJV) But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, Here we have the Woman that is seen in the 12th chapter of Revelation, that is, bringing in the Hope of lost Mankind. This child was to be killed, just as Able was killed, the Devil having put into the heart of those that loved the upper seats, to do again, the same as he did with Cain. John 13:2 (KJV) And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him; Here is that seed that was in Cain, here it is once again to finalize the plan that would do away with God in the Heart of mankind. This would give Satan the power that he wanted to displace God and set himself up in the seat of God as God. Ezekiel 28:2 (KJV) Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: Here we can see why Hitler and Hussein, and those that desire to set in the seats of God, not only to set in the high seats of the Churches, but to set Satan, their God into the seat where God is supposed to be sitting. The Heart is the seat of God the Father. Wake up, my friend and take notice of what the plan of Satan is. Satan will let you go to church and boast and brag all you want; he just wants to be setting higher than anyone else and have the authority to run the church the way he wants to. The ultimate battle was there at the Cross. yet when Mary had this child, Satan stood there in a man and tried to kill him as soon as he was born. Just as it was in Egypt when Israel was to be delivered from bondage. This was a deliverance from the bondage of Flesh and Flesh authority, to take the authority of Satan away from him. Israel came out of bondage of Egypt and went into the promise land and the land was given them, they had not worked or earned it, they only had to endure the afflictions of the wilderness for forty years, and this was because of their rejection of God help on many occasions. Today, we have the same promise of the Holy Ghost. This is the land of promise, the paradise that was promised to the thief on the cross. Luke 23:43 (KJV) And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. This woman that was chosen by God to give birth of the Son of God was to take us into a deeper walk with God the Father, to reveal God the Father to us, to come to us, abide with, and inside us, to give us power to become Sons of God. John 1:12 (KJV) But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: To become the sons of god we must be led of the Sprit. Romans 8:14 (KJV) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Mary was led of the Spirit after the annunciation that was given to her, and she went immediately to Elizabeth to hear the witness of the hope that had been prepared beforehand in her womb. Luke 1:39-55 (KJV) And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda; [40] And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth. [41] And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: [42] And she spoke out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. [43] And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? [44] For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy. [45] And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord. [46] And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, [47] And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior. [48] For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. [49] For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name. [50] And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation. [51] He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. [52] He hath put down the mighty from their seats and exalted them of low degree. [53] He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away. [54] He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy; [55] As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed forever. Genesis 3:15 (KJV) And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. This enmity that was there between the righteous seed and the seed of Satan was what directed Cain to kill his brother and this Enmity is the Mind of all those that are carnal and sold under sin. Romans 8:7 (KJV) Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. Cain was not subject to God, his mind was against God, against anyone that stood in his way of exalting himself. Ephes. 2:15-16 (KJV) Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; [16] And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: Just what do you hear from those that think themselves to be wise and stand in authority in the church? Do they or are they being spent and spend themselves and count themselves as the least of all. Ephes. 3:8 (KJV) Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; So, do you not see that today, many deceivers have entered into the world. 2 John 1:7 (KJV) For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. As Adam was first in the world and in the flesh, the Last Adam is the one that has been before the world. This Adam became the seed of mustard seed and girded a towel around him, washed the saints feet, in doing so he has become the greatest of all herbs In Jesus, the peace, the comfort that untold billions and billions can come to take comfort in his branches. Can you find comfort in his branches, in his followers that are filled with the Holy Ghost, and who look not on their own desires, but are willing to be spent, and be spent, for that those that are less, can come and find consolation in the same Spirit that dwells in them. Do you want to be a mustard seed? or do you want to stand among the trees? have all the other trees of Eden envying you? Ezekiel 31:18 (KJV) To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord God. Let me rephrase this to sound like this. “This is the Flesh and all those that Trust in the Flesh.” 1 Cor. 15:50 (KJV) Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. When we come to God and expect to have a blessing bestowed upon us, do we wipe our feet on our brothers, go about doing our little thing among the church and say that we love God the Father, cannot go the extra mile. I wonder if we have not; missed the Holy Ghost, for the Holy Ghost has but one mission in the church today and that is to bring us together in love and truth, and have, us to fellowship one with another in love, to bind up the broken hearted, to give light to the lost. Matthew 13:32 (KJV) Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof. James 4:4 (KJV) Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Rev. 12:4 (KJV) And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman, which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. Here when Christ was hanging on the Cross, the earth became dark once again, this in my opinion, was the dislodging of Satan and his Angels from the ability to enter into the kingdom of God, once and forever. There was a battle that was fought in that Three hours, when the earth became dark, It would boggle the mind of anyone and would cause most to tremble as to the sight of the Angels of God, and the Fallen Angels and the Spirits of darkness, as they all gathered there at the Cross. Daniel 12:1 (KJV) And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. Here is where we must realize that Mercy has more Power than Judgment, or at least we can see here what the Love of God the father is. Here we can know that God is Love. Had not this Man called Jesus, been hanging there the whole creation, even Abraham and all of those in the past, In my opinion, could not have entered into the kingdom of God. Jesus said these words: You must realize this is where I base my theory, yet I do not call it a theory. This is the time, or the fullness of time. Galatians 4:4 (KJV) But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, Time had come to the full, and God had set this earth and its inhabitants in judgment, Jesus was and is the mercy of God the father. It was the mercy of God that was before the world was. This is where the middle of the week that Daniel spoke of came to the full. At this time, God had set judgment to follow, but only after Mercy had had it free course on the creation. The bible declares that; James 2:13 (KJV) For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment. Jesus had come to the Jewish nation and would have gathered them unto himself, yet they did the unimaginable. They not only Humiliated him, but they rejected him, cried these words. Matthew 27:25 (KJV) Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. This truly is the force and the Power of the Fourth Beast, which was to appear like Daniel spoke of. Daniel 7:23 (KJV) Thus, he said, “The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. Had God not have brought in Mercy at this point, this beast would have devoured the whole creation and would have consumed the earth. Here we have Jesus coming after four hundred years of silence, the bridge from Malachi to Jesus Christ. Then, as Christ became a man, according to the Jewish tradition, he was to become an adult at the age of thirty years, this is when he and John the Baptist were standing in the River of Jordan, and both being baptized. Then came the voice from heaven and spoke, just as the Voice spoke on Mt Sinai, here God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost was meeting on earth to show to lost humanity that his Love and his mercy is greater than anything that Satan could offer to humanity. As the children Israel was four hundred years in Egypt, the Children of Israel was four hundred years without the slightest hint of Prophecy, those are called the Four Hundred Silent Years, from the end of the old Testament to the coming of the Messiah. There at the river of Jordan, we have exactly four hundred and thirty years, and then God speaks. This time he speaks so that all can come to the mount of God and hear what he had to say. Matthew 17:5 (KJV) While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. When the Law was given to Moses, God spoke to Moses and the Glory of the giving of the Law was so Glorious that Moses face shined, and the Children of Israel could not behold that glory. 2 Cor. 3:13 (KJV) And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: Here again the Children of Israel had allowed the fourth beast to rise up, not only in the Temple made with Hands, but had set this beast up in their hearts to dictate to those in that time, who could enter into the Hollies, who could not come, or not come, into the Temple. Everyone had to come through the authority of this fourth beast, and this beast had ascended so high in authority that only God himself could remove him from his authority. Yes, he said that he would ascend up to heaven and be like the most high. Isaiah 14:14 (KJV) I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. This swine, entered into the Temple of Stones, also he entered into the Temple of God, which is the Heart. Mark 14:58 (KJV) We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands. Acts 7:48 (KJV) Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, Acts 17:24 (KJV) God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; Hebrews 9:24 (KJV) For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: At this time when Jesus came and died, God was raising up out of the Darkness and Nation that would serve God. Satan would not have any more access to. Satan cannot enter into the kingdom of God and has no authority over the kingdom of God. Satan lost his Dominion that he once had. Satan had this authority to walk in the presence of God, but he did not like to retain, he raised himself up in pride, as the bible says; Proverbs 16:18 (KJV) Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. I cannot Imagine why so many Scholars, those that are supposed to know God and his wisdom, why they have not realized that this beast that they are looking to come and set himself up in the Temple over in Jerusalem. I guess; it is supposed to be this way, yet this that has come to pass there when Jesus came, This Beast was there in front of all mankind, had shut up the Heaven’s to many and caused many to become weary and no doubt, many have not made it into the Kingdom because of this Fourth Beast. Give yourself some credit for some sense that we, as children of God, who have been given power to become sons of god, are to have. It amazes me to think that I, myself, was not able to come to the knowledge of the fact that God does not dwell in Temples made with hands. This Temple that Satan had set himself up in, had become the God of those that allow him to come into their heart. Satan had actually made himself God. Had set himself in the seat of God. This beast became powerless when Jesus Died and only was allowed to dwell in chains of Darkness, as he has chosen the Flesh as his residence cannot but exist in nothing else except the flesh. When the Mercy of God is Shut off to the World, then as the verse state in Daniel, he will be able to devour the whole earth. This he would do; had he been allowed to do so. We have the promise that he is held back from this until God gets his people into the kingdom. 2 Thes. 2:7 (KJV) For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. As long as the church is in the Word and the Holy Ghost is in the believer, Satan can, and is limited to do his dirty work. Satan can do nothing without you and I allowing him to have authority over us. Matthew 16:19 (KJV) And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Those Keys are more than one Key, and we have the keys to lock and to bind those that oppose the children of God. Matthew 11:12 (KJV) And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. When John the Baptist stepped up on the scene, we can see the Mercy of God taking authority over mankind. Mankind had made an allegiance with Hell. Isaiah 28:18 (KJV) And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. Many had been the victims of Satan, as he dislodged many, on the course that he took when he was dislodged from the Law of God. God here is saying to Satan, “You are not victorious over my People” Jesus Christ came to take the Laws that was placed into existence, and not as he did there on the mount with Moses, God, out of His Laws, showed to us a New Law. This Law was the Law of Mercy and Love. The Law that Moses encountered was so Glorious, that Moses could not look upon it in its full Glory. Moses face illuminated at the Presence of that Law. That Law is the Law that Satan took hold of and Condemned everyone to Hell. Listen to me, Here is wisdom, Cain was the first one that came from the womb of the mother and as Cain did not like to retain the Love of God, he was the Symbol of Satan in the Incarnate flesh. This is why that the flesh cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. 1 Cor. 15:50 (KJV) Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Gods children became partakers of the Flesh and Blood. Satan, when he came to Eve and told her that she would be as Gods,(Genesis 3:5 (KJV) For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.) he then had the power of Death. Satan took the Law, then he used it to slay mankind. We must realize that the Laws of God and Satan controlled the power of Death was allowed to bring death as he was given power by God. Of course, those that desired to serve Satan and follow him, when God’s Spirit failed to rescue them, by their choice, God allowed the Letter to Slay, and they died without mercy. Romans 7:7-8:17 (KJV) What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. [8] But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. [9] For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. [10] And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death. [11] For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me. [12] Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. [13] Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. [14] For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. [15] For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. [16] If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. [17] Now then it is no more I that do it but sin that dwelleth in me. [18] For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. [19] For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. [20] Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. [21] I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. [22] For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: [23] But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. [24] O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? [25] I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. I would like to say that this is what is wrong with most today. They are looking for anyone and anything to bring satisfaction, and peace, to their troubled souls. You have to understand that Satan, like he did with Eve, he will take the commandant and use it to condemn you and I so bad that he will have you believing that you are good for nothing, and that you have broken every law that could be imagined. This is true that we have broken most all the laws, but we must realize that we are not governed by the law. Or at least the law contained in ordinances. The Law of Christ govern us. This law of Christ is the Good Part of the Tree of knowledge of Good and Evil that was there in the garden of Eden. The letter, or the Law was given to keep us until the time of reformation...Hebrews 9:10 (KJV) Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation. This time of reformation is the time of improvement or reforming, which is to say, that God was taking away the first covenant and bringing in a new covenant. That covenant stood in the works of the Law; this could not justify any in the sight of God. In other words, this was not good enough to bring us into the presence of God the Father. Paul had a big disappointment as he tried to find peace for himself, through his own righteousness. Paul became, like most today, as they listen to the voice of the messenger of Satan, which is in the flesh, in the carnal mind, and it condemned him so bad, he became a wretched man. This is why so many stand in the Gate of Heaven, they will not go in themselves, yet they continually condemn others, this affects those that are condemned, and this gives those that condemn just reason to continue to do the usual. Galatians 4:17 (KJV) They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them. The word exclude, this means that they would leave you out of God’s blessings, they just get rid of you so that they can say that they were and are the righteous ones. This, they condemn you and in doing so, they look good. This member is not the member that brought peace to the Soul of Paul. These members care not for the Saving of the Spirit. These are the deceivers that are transforming Satan into the angel of light. Satan then has the power over their minds and being, he controls them and inhabits these individuals, thereby setting himself in the seat of God. Satan then can say...Isaiah 14:13-14 (KJV) For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: [14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Now do you understand that those that walk with you, your familiars are, and could be your enemy. Psalm 55:12-14 (KJV) For it was not an enemy that reproached me; then I could have borne it: neither was it he that hated me that did magnify himself against me; then I would have hidden myself from him: [13] But it was thou, a man mine equal, my guide, and mine acquaintance. [14] We took sweet counsel together and walked unto the house of God in company. Here we have the prophecy of Judas Iscariot, which was walking side by side with Jesus, he took hold of the treasure, he cared for the money. This we can see that the Spirit of Satan, in order to rise and set himself in the seat of God, and to be like the most High, Satan will do just about anything to make himself look great in the eyes of those that are in authority. One clue is that they are always telling you how great you are...Luke 6:26 (KJV) Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets. These are those that have men’s admiration in their minds. Jude 1:16 (KJV) These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. I will tell you of an instant of a minister, an acquaintance of mine, he was having a revival under a tent, this revival was to include other church detonations as well. I was parking the cars in the parking lot, or in a field, he stood beside me and there was a car that came in that was supposed to be a great supporter of his, this minister said to me, “Let him park his car up close and park all the others down at the end of the field. This I must say is an example to what is being said when they have certain people in their admiration. I guess they do not see any wrong in this, yet Jesus made himself of no reputation...Philip. 2:7 (KJV) But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Paul concluded that there was another member that was in what is called The Perfect Law of Liberty. James 1:25 (KJV) But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. Notice that it states that those that look to the Perfect law of liberty, must continue therein. This is why we walk and work for the Lord, not that the works that we do will save us, but that because we walk in the Perfect Law of Liberty, we do the work and want to stay in the perfect law of liberty. Here is where that, when we fail to walk in the Perfect law of liberty, this voice of, that is called the messenger of Satan, will make us wretched, just as it did with Paul. Paul had a hard time coming to the point where he had to forget what he had learned from Gamaliel, while he was so fervent in his efforts in the Law of Moses, he realized that he no longer was Righteous by that Law, for that law was not perfect. Had that law been perfect, it would have made the comers to it perfect and there would be no need for another law. Paul found that as long as he looked back to the Law of Moses, he could not find justification in his actions. The law of Moses was glorious, yet this law of liberty, the law of Grace, this light that shown down on Paul, on the road of Damascus, this law, or light, changed him into another, which most cannot realize, the one that killed and boasted, now was sought out by Satan, and only boasted in his affliction that is brought about by the preaching of Jesus Christ. [8:1] There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. [3] For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: [4] That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [5] For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. [6] For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. [7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. [8] So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. [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. [10] And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. [11] But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. [12] Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. [13] For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. [14] For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. [15] For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. [16] The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: [17] And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. I have injected these passages of Scriptures into this so that you the reader can understand that from the Law, and through the Law, Righteousness came through the Spirit of the Holy Ghost. This Righteousness is not of the Flesh, although it was in the flesh, as Jesus also took part of the flesh, Jesus came in the flesh to destroy that death that had reigned from Adam to Moses. To The Web Down To Here for part # 3 Chapter # 4 Romans 5:14 (KJV) Nevertheless, death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. We could say that Satan had, has, his reign only in the flesh. Now that Jesus Christ came, took the Curse upon himself, we are free. John 8:36 (KJV) If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. We are not bound by death anymore. 1 Cor. 15:55 (KJV) O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? John 11:26 (KJV) And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? Why would anyone want to go back under the Law? Romans 10:4 (KJV) For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth. The Law condemned mankind, made him know that death, was ever present. Now that Christ has come, condemned death in the Flesh, we are no longer held in the bonds of death. Our body is held by the fact that death is waiting, but our new man, which is from above, is free. Galatians 4:26 (KJV) But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. Jerusalem, which is above, this is the Mother, or, we could say, has given birth to each of us, those that have been born of the spirit. John said it when he wrote these words: Rev. 21:2 (KJV) And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. This New Jerusalem has come down in and by the Holy Ghost, as a Bride of the Son of God the father. Just as Abraham sought out the right bride for Isaac, God the Father sought out a Bride for his Son, The Son of God. Isaac is a foreshadow of Jesus Christ, and Abraham is the Foreshadow of God the Father. It was Faith that was the Substance of that which Abraham Hoped For. God the Father, when he said...Genesis 1:26 (KJV) And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. We can see here that God is saying to Us, which is more than one, that he wanted a Son for himself, and wanted Children by that Son. It is like the Seed in a woman, that seed must be, at the given time, come down and at that precise time, the male must fertile, or be made productive. When the Two, The Seed of the Woman, and the Sperm of the Male come together, then we have the Evidence of the Substances that is Hoped For... Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. It was the Faith, or, the Substance that brought the Seed to Abraham and Sarah, thereby she, Sarah gave birth to Isaac. This Productive Seed would continue down through the ages to come, until there would be the Evidence of that Seed, Jesus Christ. God Choose The Virgin Mary, to be the one that would produce a Body that this Seed, Begotten by the Holy Ghost, which would be the First Born Among Many Brethren. This First Born was not after the Promise but was before the Promise given to Abraham. Abraham and Sarah just could not Wait, so She wanted to jump ahead of God, giving Hagar to Abraham to bring this Seed. This seed of Hagar was those that were standing there with Jesus when he said... “I will make you Free.” John 8:31-44 (KJV) Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; [32] And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. [33] They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? [34] Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. [35] And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. [36] If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. [37] I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. [38] I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. [39] They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham. [40] But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. [41] Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. [42] Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. [43] Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. [44] Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Here we can see that Jesus is saying that they are the Children of Abraham, but the seed is not to the Promise, or, to make my case, Not of The Holy Ghost. God the Father wanted Abraham and Sarah to, “ Wait for the Promise” just as he told the Disciples to go up to the Upper Room, the Upper Room, meant to... “ Enter into the place where the Holy Ghost, or the Holy Jerusalem could Conceive in them the Seed of God the Father. There are many out there that would say, as those Jews said, “ We are the Children of Jesus Christ” but they have not gone to the Upper Room to wait for the Conception of the Holy Ghost to bring God the Father’s Seed, or the New Jerusalem to give birth to the Promise Seed. Can you the Reader see that, just as the Jews that was standing there, yes, they were Abraham’s seed, but was from the seed of Hagar, or the Seed of those that would not want the Holy Ghost, and therefore they were the seed of the Devil. These would come into the Family of God, or to the Wedding with the wrong Garment on...Matthew 22:11-12 (KJV) And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: [12] And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. They are in the presence of the Father, just as Ishmael was in the house of Abraham, they just would not inherit or did not want to come to the father through the Promise. As Esau sold his Birthright, these sold their birthright to Satan, and by doing so they became the Children of the Devil. Have you sold your Birthright, for such a cheap price? Esau was cold and hungry, was caught off guard, and missed the Promise. This is what is the Results of that which we see, as we look at the Moslems, they claim to be the children of Abraham, but in essence, they are Children of the Flesh. Cain was a Child of the Flesh, to think and offer that which satisfies the flesh. This was the reason that God rejected his offering. Cain had his life stained with sin; therefore, he could not offer a pleasing offering as long as he entertained the flesh. The Flesh said that god would accept his offering, but the spirit would not accept an offering of that which the flesh lusted after. You and I cannot go out and do things for God, such as build church building, or even tithe, fast or many other things, and think that this is what pleases God. God is not pleased that way. Amos 5:21-25 (KJV) I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies. [22] Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts. [23] Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols. [24] But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. [25] Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel? If you leave out the Holy Ghost and try to say that “ Jesus Is Lord” God will not accept that from your lips...1 Cor. 12:3 (KJV) Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. You can tithe, give your body to be burned, or do keep all the Commandments, but as the Apostle Paul said... 1 Cor. 13:1-10 (KJV) Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. [2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. [3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. [4] Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, [5] Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; [6] Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; [7] Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. [8] Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. [9] For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. [10] But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When we listen to our Leaders in Washington, what do we hear? We do not hear any of the above, oh yes, they all hold the Bible dear to their heart, but out of their mouth comes some of the most degrading. words against those that are competing against them. I ask the Question, “ Is this the true evidence of Charity? Not in any wise, and be sure that it will come, and is here already that God will, or, I should say as, Paul Said...1 Cor. 5:3 (KJV) For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, Well now, I guess that I should not write like this. I am supposed to say and think on the good things, but the only good things cometh from the Father...Mark 10:18 (KJV) And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. Jesus was saying to those there, Do not look at this body that I have and give it the Glory, but look at the Father Through the Holy Ghost, for it is the Holy Ghost that is working through me. The Holy Ghost is the only real Substance of the Father. You want to see God the Father, you will never, I say, Never get to God the father except that you enter into the Holy Ghost, for that is God the Father. The Holy Ghost does not Condemn, as it is always present to edify and to draw all men to the Father...John 12:32 (KJV) And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. This is where the Churches have invited the Devil to come into and to Set down in the Seat of God, that which Isaiah said...Isaiah 14:13-14 (KJV) For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: [14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. You will see that I refer to this passage often. The reason is that Satan was sitting in the Temple there when Jesus Came, and he was in those Jews and those that follow after their pernicious ways. He was sitting there in the Heart of the one that is called a Jew. Look at the Jew on the outward today, and as many looks and talk how blessed they are and how that God favors them more than themselves. I ask the Question, “ Do they believe in Jesus Christ? No, Not in anywise, and one would think that all that has come upon those in the past, that they would believe if anyone would believe. This is the whole Message in this writing of this, that we need to “ Arise now and go”...John 14:30-31 (KJV) Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. [31] But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence. The price of this world, he has nothing good to say about god, and if he does, he will entrap you into believing that he is an Angel Of Light...2 Cor. 11:14-15 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. [15] Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. Listen to what Paul is saying; it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; Are we living in the time of the End? when men and women along with Children are, 2 Tim. 3:2 (KJV) For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Again, he described to us believers the hope that exist for God’s people. Rev. 22:2 (KJV) In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manners of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. You, like many, can place this verse in the future if you like, but for me I know that this verse is now and has been there before the world was. Just think for a moment, we have the tree of life, and the river is the Holy Ghost that is flowing from the Throne of God the Father. On the day, that Jesus said: Matthew 28:18 (KJV) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Jesus began to reveal to those there, that he was this tree, and that the healing leaves and the fruit of this tree is the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is for the Healing of the Nations. 2 Chron. 7:14 (KJV) If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. . Amen. Jesus Christ came into the world to save lost humanity. Jesus came to set men free from the bonds of iniquity and to raise us up to set in Heavenly places with him. In order to sit with Jesus, we must walk in the spirit and live a godly life and if we do sin, we need to go to the advocate and confess our sins and believe that he is just to forgive our sins. Hebrews 2:14 (KJV) Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; The devil had the power of death and took away from God many, through their choice to believe Satan and to be deceived. Today, many are led away with the error of the wicked and will not take heed to the Voice of God, the Holy Ghost. This is in my opinion the most disgraced sin that is committed today, the rejection of the Holy Ghost and we find today that most are like those that stood at the foot of the Cross, they stood far off. Ephes. 2:13 (KJV) But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. Yes, the blood of Jesus Christ has brought those, even those that have denied the power of the Holy Ghost, it has brought them nigh to that decision that has been made on their part. Like the Jews, there is those that say, “Away with Him.” The Holy Ghost is Jesus in this present time, and it is God the Father in the believer, and it brings the Son and the Father into the lives of his children and with him. We can sit in Heavenly places with the Father and the Son and dine with him. The messenger of Satan would not have you to listen to the Voice of God the Father, which is the Holy Ghost. What is the solution to keeping this messenger quiet and to not allow it to rise up in us and to cause us to be drawn away? The only answer is that of the Holy Ghost, this is what puts the messenger to silence. Oh! “it will always be there when it gets a chance” it will come in like a flood. But remember that God has raised up a standard against this flood. Isaiah 59:19 (KJV) So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. On the Day of Pentecost there was a standard given to the believers and up to that time Satan had caused great sorrows. Just as Paul had a hard time speaking the revelations to carnal minded people, today those that are carnal will not hear the voice of the Holy Ghost. Posted to Web Page Feb 06 08 Down to here. Chapter # 5 The question is; why would the revelations that Paul had received from God, be unlawful to utter? Is Paul saying; God does not allow me to speak these revelations to anyone ? It certainly sounds like that. John the revelator had been told not to write some things that he had seen or heard. Rev. 10:4 (KJV) And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. Why would God want to conceal certain experiences or words that had been declared? The withholding of certain revelations, such as that of Daniel and John the Revelator, was certainly for a reason. God had made Jesus Christ his son a mystery that was hid from the foundations of the world. Romans 16:25 (KJV) Now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, The reason that Jesus was a mystery was that Satan would not know just how and when that Jesus would come to give his life for the sins of mankind. Had God revealed too much information, Satan would not have crucified the Lord. 1 Cor. 2:8 (KJV) Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. God brings to pass things and reveals revelation knowledge to his saints when the time is right, and not before. Jeremiah 33:6 (KJV) Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth. God has in this last day revealed to us his Truth and Peace. God wants to bring us, not only truth, but wants to bring us Health & Peace. Would not it be great if the World is seeking Peace, or those that want Peace, if they would only believe this Verse that is Written. The Holy Ghost is Peace to the Believer, and those that refuse to enter into that Door, they will not ever have Peace, Truth & Health. John 10:9-18 (KJV) I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. [10] The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. [11] I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. [12] But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, who’s own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. [13] The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. [14] I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. [15] As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. [16] And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one-fold, and one shepherd. [17] Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. [18] No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. Luke 2:25-26 (KJV) And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him. [26] And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ. We notice that the Holy Ghost was upon this man that was waiting for the consolation of Israel. Here is a typical example of those that have hope and are waiting to see the hope of Mankind. This was the Abundance of Truth and Peace. Throughout ages prior, man had been separated from this Hope and Peace, in one sense. It seemed to many that hope for salvation was all but lost. Listen to the Voice of the Holy Ghost here as this Man of God was being tried. I do not know about you, if you will see or hear, but I hear the Cries of Jesus Christ her, as he is being led away by his own, those that everyone says is blessed of god. Jesus came to bring Peace, Health, and Truth, but they cried “Away With Him” crying, “ Crucify Him.” He hang there as a result of these, so called friends, of Job, as they pierced his Soul, while Satan was trying him. Yes, Jesus Christ is here Depicted in these following Words that is being spoken by on of God’s chosen. You will see the Revelation of Jesus Christ, as he became the Curse that Was placed upon Job. You will See The Revelation of how those that come to comfort, gave him Gall to drink. Look at the Blood running down through this Revelation of Jesus Christ, that like God told Job’s friends...Job 42:7-10 (KJV) And it was so, that after the Lord had spoken these words unto Job, the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. [8] Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing, which is right, like my servant Job. [9] So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did according as the Lord commanded them: the Lord also accepted Job. [10] And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also, the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. Job 16:1-17:15 (KJV) Then Job answered and said, [2] I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all. [3] Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest? [4] I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you. [5] But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief. [6] Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased? [7] But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company. [8] And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face. [9] He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me. [10] They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me. [11] God hath delivered me to the ungodly and turned me over into the hands of the wicked. [12] I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark. [13] His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground. [14] He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant. [15] I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin and defiled my horn in the dust. [16] My face is foul with weeping, and my eyelids is the shadow of death; [17] Not for any injustice in mine hands: also, my prayer is pure. [18] O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place. [19] Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high. [20] My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God. [21] Oh that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour! [22] When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return. [17:1] My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me. [2] Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation? [3] Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me? [4] For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore, shalt thou not exalt them. [5] He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail. [6] He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret. [7] Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow. [8] Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite. [9] The righteous also shall hold on to his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger. [10] But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you. [11] My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart. [12] They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness. [13] If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness. [14] I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister. [15] And where is my hope now? as for my hope, who shall see it? This man of God; had been attacked by Satan and had found that the Man Of God could not be broken altogether. Though. Satan had accused Job, he found that in all situations, even though, it looked like there was no hope at all, then out of Obscurity, there is always light that will come through. When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they were driven out of the Garden and there were placed their flaming swords to keep the way of the tree of life. Genesis 3:24 (KJV) So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life. Adam and Eve lived in an environment of Total Peace and could bask in the presence of the Lord. The Voice of the Lord was there, and the presence of God was there in that Voice. That Voice, the Same Voice that we have today was presence and has been present with men that have set their heart to wait on the blessed hope. When Adam and Eve were driven from the Garden, Truth was pulled down and was trampled upon. Adam was; made by Truth, had been breathed upon into the nostrils, “the abundance of Peace.” There stood in the mist of the Garden, a Tree of Knowledge of good and evil. Many different opinions have been formed as to what that tree was. Many Trees were in the Garden, but only Two Trees, had a significant role in what would be, The Rise and he Down Fall of Mankind. One was the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, the Other was; The Tree of Life. Jesus, was the tree of Life, preserved until the fullness of time would come. Galatians 4:4 (KJV) But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, After the fall of mankind and when God drove the man and woman from the Garden of Eden. Mankind went into the time realm and began to die. Here is where God entrapped Satan, that Beast. Here is where God took this Occasion to Rid Satan from the Kingdom of God forever. When the Last body of Flesh is done away with, then Satan would be done away with. Satan Came down to this earth, after he Fell from the Truth...Luke 10:18 (KJV) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Genesis 2:17 (KJV) But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. This tree of good and evil, like that of what Paul said to the church. Romans 7:7 (KJV) What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. The commandant that came to Adam and Eve, is what made Paul aware that he had sinned and was on the road to Hell. This was the breaking of the Commandants of God, and Eve listen to the Voice, the Messenger that the Apostle Paul was describing that lie in his flesh. Had there not been the commandant given to Adam and Eve, there were no death sentence. If you listen to the Messenger of Satan, this same voice that Eve listen too, you too, will Die. But if you listen to the Voice of God, the Holy Ghost, ye shall live and Never Die. Which Tree are you trusting in, The Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, which is the Law. or, are you listing to the Holy Ghost, That is the Tree of Life that causes you to live forever. Romans 10:4 (KJV) For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth. We can see what the reason for the coming of the lord Jesus Christ, to abolish death. Death is the end results of those that are bound by the law. Death was the sentence that was placed upon mankind. This sentence has reigned from the time of Adam’s fall. Romans 5:14 (KJV) Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come. Death reigned. This sounds like that the king over mankind was death. When we read of the corruption of mankind, when Noah was commanded to build an Ark, we can see the results of the reign of Death. Death had been the sentence of all mankind from the least to the greatest. Adam was the figure of the coming of Jesus Christ. As the Death sentence came on Adam. Eternal Life is given to all that believe on Jesus Christ. Romans 5:17 (KJV) For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) So, we can conclude that this flesh, or this body, has a sentence of Death upon it and all that has ever been born will come to the time of Death. Now we know that Enoch was not permitted to see death. Hebrews 11:5 (KJV) By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. In this rare occasion, the Lord took the authority and the power over Death and because that the Man, Enoch, had a testimony that he pleased God, he was not allowed to taste of Death. This is a mere replication of those now days that have the testimony of God. John 8:51 (KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. Yet, We have in our body the sentence of death. Death makes its bid for your body. It is my opinion, that the only thing that holds that sentence from taking effect, is, the Grace of God. God’s mercy that is shown, not only to the righteous, but to the sinner also. Had Adam and Eve been allowed to take of the tree of life, after that, when they sinned, Satan would have been able to, not only stand in the presence of God, but he would also have in essence replaced God’s presence in his created man with his presence. Satan then would have become like God. Isaiah 14:14 (KJV) I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. This was Satan’s ticket to his ascension, to be like the most high. Just as God has been Glorified in Christ Jesus, That Glory is, that of the Saints of God, being brought into the presence of God the Father. It is evident that Satan could never be like God as a Angel. Satan was not made in the Image of God. Satan was not made from the clay. Satan never had the breath of God blown into his nostrils. To be like God, Satan had to incarnate himself into one of God children. Adam was the first son of God that was created. Satan knew that if he could get into the flesh that Adam had, then let Adam go to the tree of Life, and eat of the fruit, Satan then would have taken the image of God and as Jesus was the Express image of the Father. Satan would have ascended up to the Throne and would have been able to sit down in the throne with God and would have been like the most high. Transferred to Web Page Feb 10 08 Chapter # 7 Jesus asked the father to glorify him with the glory that he had with the father in the beginning. John 17:5 (KJV) And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. Jesus had the Glory of the father before the world was. God and Jesus existed before the world was ever placed into existence. When Adam became a living soul, the Lord took him and placed him into the Garden of Eden. there, god took from Adam, a rib. From that rib God made Adam a helpmeet. This helpmeet is the Woman named Eve. She was to be a companion to Adam. Here again the Glory of the man was the woman and as this woman stood by side of Adam, this was a similitude to the bride of Jesus Christ. The Church is the bride, and the righteousness of the Saints is the Glory of the Father. 1 Cor. 11:7 (KJV) For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. Rev. 19:7-8 (KJV) Let us be glad and rejoice and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. [8] And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. We can say that this is the purpose of the first Adam and the helpmeet that he created. The bible declares, that, God can see the end from the beginning. Isaiah 46:10 (KJV) Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, “my counsel shall stand“--- “I will do all my pleasure“. We must realize that, when we are talking of the end from the beginning, God through Jesus Christ, in Jesus Christ, created both the beginning and the end, and everything in between. God declared the end through Jesus Christ, which, is the beginning. The End of the Matter is Jesus Christ. In the law, those that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam, which had death to rein over them, the Law made those know, that in that law, there were the councils of God, a promise, of the hope. Each and every one that had this hope could be delivered from the death. and the grave. God through the Law revealed first that sin, was exceedingly sinful that man had fallen from the Garden. All that followed were to look to Jesus Christ. If Man were to ever be lifted up and Glorified again, it would only come through Jesus Christ, the one that was mentioned in the law. The law itself could not deliver mankind up to the Father to receive the Glory, that God the father, wanted through his son Jesus, before the world was created. Through the pain staking mercy, and the councils, that God the Father placed in Jesus Christ. There, he was able to make and cause his councils, to come to pass. God wanted Adam and Eve to enjoy this from the very beginning. Had Adam and Eve not yielded to the Serpent, surely things would have been different. We can see how, God at times, became weary with those of time past. God, had, at certain times wanted to destroy them from the face of the earth. God; made an; attempt to wipe sin out. God wanted man to follow in the righteousness of that of his son. Yet man just could not get away from the presence of the Serpent. The serpent was driven out of the Garden through the flesh that Adam and Eve had, The Serpent took up his rein in that habitation. We can see him coming through the flesh through Cain. At the same time, we can see the councils of God coming through Able. As it was said, had not God left us a seed, we all, would be completely done away with. Romans 9:29 (KJV) And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha. We certainly would be destroyed by fire. as the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha. By the way, isn’t that one of the Prophesies that foretells the end of those who do not follow God and who follow after Satan? Luke 17:28 (KJV) Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; Adam had been glorified with the glory of a son, even though he was a created living soul. God the father became Glorified in that creation. God has referred to the Saints, the place of his residence, which is what he, God, desires more than his own majesty. To prove this, we only, need to look at the verse in; John 3. 16. John 3:16 (KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Jesus was made lower than the Angels. Jesus stepped down from the glory of that which exists in Heaven. Jesus came to this sin torn world, died willing, just to have us to enter into his presence once again. As he had with Adam and Eve in the Garden, as the Voice of God talked. with Adam and Eve in the Garden. The voice of the Holy Ghost still today want to communicate with us. 2 Thes. 1:10 (KJV) When he shall come to be. glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all of them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. Some individuals, just take, what God has done for us, as something that could, or did happen, because God had nothing else better to do. The whole existence of God, is, that of God himself, existing in his saints. It is a mistake for us to think that we have the ability to make ourselves righteous by our own doings. Jesus Christ is our righteousness, and in him along, can we enter into the presence of God the Father. Had not Jesus been prepared from the beginning, as our redemption, we would have been all been like Sodom and Gomorrah. Thank God that as he looked upon Lot with his mercy. The mercy had been extended to Lot, because, of that which God had prepared in Christ. The Lord reached down when the evil surroundings were to be burned up by fire, he extended his mercy to Lot. That is the same mercy, which he showed, when he died on the cross. He delivered us from the curse that Malachi had pronounced upon mankind. Lot was taken by the hand and commanded to leave the place. Lot and those with him, were commanded to not look back. We today are commanded to come out from among the world and be separate. 2 Cor. 6:17 (KJV) Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, As fire rained fire down upon those cities in those days, that fire, was the judgment type that was there, at the cross when Jesus came. The Bible states that he came in the fullness of time. Galatians 4:4 (KJV) But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, Daniel spoke of the time that Jesus would come to redeem those that were looking for him. Daniel 9:26-27 (KJV) And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; > and the end thereof shall be with a flood,< and unto the end of the war -desolations are determined. [27] And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and >in the midst of the week< he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. This is where that many scholars have tried to determine the final hour of the time that is to come on the world. We have come to an agreement that this prophesy is concerning the Nation of Israel, and indeed it is referring to the Jewish nation. It also has another message in it that, I believe that, even the most educated Scholar cannot be able to understand. For one to understand this prophesy, one would have to have, I believe, a revelation of God. Understanding this cannot be from a carnal mind. Daniel when receiving these words and other prophesy, he found himself with no strength left in him. Daniel 8:18 (KJV) Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me and set me upright. This verse shows that God was speaking to Daniel while he was in a deep sleep. God comes to us in our imaginary and reveals to us the hidden things of God. Isaiah 48:6 (KJV) Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them. Clearly; there is in the Scripture things that God wants us to understand. God wants his children to know what is taking place in this world and to know what is happening on the other side. We can understand that after sixty-two weeks the Messiah shall be cut off. This could only be referring to Jesus Christ being Crucified on the Cross. Jesus was crucified not for himself, but for each of us was, he crucified, and had not he been crucified, we, would not be redeemed back to God. This was his soul purpose for giving his life on the cross. The prince that was to come was the one that came around seventy A.D. and took down the temple that had been made with hands and destroyed the City of Jerusalem. Jesus said that the temple would be thrown down. Mark 13:2 (KJV) And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. Luke 21:6 (KJV) As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. When we total up the number of sixty and two weeks, and multiply that by seven, The week as a week of years, we produce a total of 434 years total. Why would God make these 62 weeks stand for years, simply because he had made Jesus a mystery from the foundation of the world. Romans 16:25 (KJV) Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, As I have and will comment on this issue several times in this book, and the reason is that I do this, is, that one must realize that God, kept Jesus a mystery, so that Satan would not know when, and how, the Crucifixion would take place. Had Satan know this he would not have crucified the Lord. 1 Cor. 2:8 (KJV) Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. Now that we understand the purpose of the Mystery of Jesus, let us go on to explain what is happing in Daniel 9.26-27. As I said above the threescore and two weeks total up to a total of 434 years. Let us go to Ezekiel and try to understand why God did take these sixty-two weeks and refer to them a week of years. God did the same with Ezekiel when he was referring to the besiege of Jerusalem. God told Ezekiel to lay on his side and to take a tile and portray what was to come upon the Jews at that time. Ezekiel was told to lay on his side for three hundred ninety days, and after to lay on the other side for forty days. Ezekiel 4:1-6 (KJV) Thou also, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee, and portray upon it the city, even Jerusalem: [2] And lay siege against it, and build a fort against it, and cast a mount against it; set the camp also against it, and set battering rams against it round about. [3] Moreover take thou unto thee an iron pan and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel. [4] Lie thou also upon thy left side and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity. [5] For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. [6] And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year. Here we have a total of Four Hundred and Thirty days, and each day represents a year. Is this just a sequence or is this prophecy telling us something that would take a revelation of the deep imaginary to understand. We know that Jacob went down to Egypt and sojourned there for four hundred years and when Moses came to deliver that the deliverance was exactly four hundred years later. This prophecy was foretold back in the book of Genesis. Genesis 15:13 (KJV) And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; After the deliverance of the Children of Israel, God gave the Commandants to Moses. This time was 430 years from the time that Jacob went down to Egypt. Galatians 3:17 (KJV) And this I say that the covenant, which was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect. From the last prophesy of that of Malachi, to the coming of Jesus Christ was four hundred years. During this time, God was not to share any prophesy with anyone as we do not have any recording that verify to the fact that anything that has been written during this period was; inspired by God and is not included in the Bible. These sixty-two weeks total to four hundred and Thirty-four years. The four hundred silent years, the span between Malachi and the birth of Jesus and the time of the crucifixion would total four hundred and thirty-three and half years. Is not this a revelation to what God was doing and had given to those who were in tune with the spirit of God, and as we say in a song, “he was there all the time.” These prophesies of four hundred years and 30 years later on the mountain when Moses received the commandants. and that of the days that Ezekiel, totaling up to four hundred and thirty years, and the bridge between Malachi to the birth of Jesus being 400 years and Jesus being thirty years old when he was standing in the river of Jordan with John the Baptist and John said: John 1:26-29 (KJV) John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; [27] He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose. [28] These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. Here is some insight as to how that we, as Christians, lose sight of the lord. We are told of the Lord and How he died on the Cross, and read of all the marvelous works he did, Yet when we come together in the church and to learn of Jesus, is he standing in the mist of the congregation, and we know him not? Is Jesus there in the Hearts of the believers? he is there as the Lord or is he someone that sits idly by wanting to do great things in the church, we are so busy doing our thing that we do not know him. We do not know his ways, and what things that he desires of us, and to do for us. I believe that as John said, there stands one among you and you know him not. [29] The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. God wants to do great things and if we would ever come to church and let the Holy Ghost take the charge of the services, we could feel the Holy Ghost coming down like he did on the day of Pentecost. There would be souls saved and many would be delivered from their sins and sickness and devils would leave and allow God’s people to continue to worship the Lord until the heaven would ring out with joy. I feel the Holy Ghost right now upon me and I can hardly contain myself. I believe that I could shout at this moment. Hallelujah. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: The last words of Malachi were these. Malachi 4:5-6 (KJV) Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: [6] And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. The new testament confirms the fact that here was John, in the spirit of Elijah, and that the End of all Flesh is at stake. This is why that Jesus met there on the mount of transfiguration with Elijah and Moses. God here was bringing to pass the words of Daniel. in the midst of the week< he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, God was going to bring in a better hope. Hebrews 7:19 (KJV) For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God. In the mist of the 62nd week, 430 Years after the last words of Malachi the prophet. Here is Jesus standing in Jordan and the Voice of The Father and standing there, The Voice of the Holy Ghost came in the form of a Dove and sat upon Him. Matthew 3:16 (KJV) And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: Here is Jesus getting ready to take that which God the Father had given to him, Matthew 28:18 (KJV) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Here is the stage set to defeat Satan and to prove to those, there that he was the one that is the Mystery in the old testament, which is the mystery to those that had been blinded by Satan. Here he is with all the power to Heal the Sick and to cast out devil’s. to open the blinded eyes and the deaf ears. To make straight that which is crooked. on and on I could go, but the point of this message is, for the reader to know what he was and is. Jesus turned the water to wine. John 2:8-10 (KJV) And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. [9] When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, [10] And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. The first miracle was signifying that the Sacrifice of the blood of animals was no longer the thing that would be done for the remission of sins and that the Joy and eternal peace would not come through the Sacrifices of that of Bulls and rams. As they said. saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. Here is the ceasing of the Sacrifices of the old Testament and that which the Priests had to do continually. Here is the similitude of the Holy Ghost and the Presence of God Almighty coming to the believer and the Saints that Ezekiel saw. Ezekiel 47:3-5 (KJV) And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters were to the ancles. [4] Again he measured a thousand and brought me through the waters; the waters were to the knees. Again, he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waters were to the loins. [5] Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over. After the crucifixion of Christ, the Holy Ghost came down and men and women began to Swim in the Waters. I do not know for sure that this is what this means, but this does make sense. It could mean that these four measurements are four thousand years, Which could be the four thousand years from Adam to Christ. It could be four Days. 2 Peter 3:8 (KJV) But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. I believe he; was seeing the four days of the measurement of the Lord to the time of the Outpouring of the Holy Ghost. This Holy Ghost is the River of water that is mentioned in Revelation. Rev. 22:2 (KJV) In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manners of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. We notice that the tree had leaves for the healing of the nations. The nations that have existed and do exist to the coming back of the lord Jesus, surely do need the healing. In heaven there will be no sickness, or any tears, pain, or suffering. This river is the river that flowed at the time of the Garden where Adam and Eve was . There was the Voice, the voice of the Holy Ghost was there. This voice that was in the Garden of Eden, is that same voice that spoke there at the river of Jordan, and that River was running so that those that were gathered in the upper room on the day of Pentecost, they were swimming in the Spirit. Mankind had come to the fullness of time when Christ. come to Stop the wrath of God from coming upon all mankind. Instead of Judgment that we deserve, we have Mercy coming ahead of Judgment. 1 Cor. 13:6 (KJV) Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Here is Truth standing in the mist of the Week. Here, finally, is the Hope that man has hoped for since the falling away of man from God’s presence. Here we have Jesus, as that what Moses was, when he stood on the Mountain and said to God. Exodus 32:32-33 (KJV) Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written. [33] And the Lord said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book. Here is the Real Moses Type. Acts 7:37 (KJV) This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. Here is John the Baptist in the Spirit of Elijah. Matthew 11:10 (KJV) For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. Matthew 11:14 (KJV) And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, who was for to come. Here we have Jesus Christ the hope of mankind and here we have God himself as the offering that Abraham was speaking of two Isaac about, that would be provided. Genesis 22:8 (KJV) And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so, they went both of them together. God is here in his Son Jesus Christ, and he is taking that which is determined, and he is sitting in the seat of Mercy and meeting with humanity. Daniel 7:9 (KJV) I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire. Daniel 7:13 (KJV) I saw in the night visions, and behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. Daniel 7:22 (KJV) Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. We. as the born-again saints, began to possess the Kingdom. The Holy Ghost that was Given on the Day of Pentecost, was the Kingdom of God. The kingdom and the Keys to the Kingdom was given to the Saints and they began to possess it. When Jesus shed his Blood, he overspread the Abominations that maketh desolate. When the heart has sin in it, there is the Abomination that is spoken by Daniel. When we refuse to hear the Voice that speaketh from Heaven, we are setting up the Abominations in our Heart. Like Judas Iscariot, the sop, will be handed to us and Satan will enter in, if we refuse to allow the love of Jesus replace the Abominations. the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. Judas had become desolate and is a figure of those that try to gain the kingdom of God, by other ways except through Jesus Christ. This is why those that oppose anything that has to do with Jesus and still retain that they believe in God, find themselves in deep trouble. Like Judas, what you do, you will do it quickly when you are handed the sop. The Sop represents trying to eat of Jesus and the Devil at the same time. Jesus took his blood and he overspread the abominations that had made the heart of those from the Garden of Eden to that time, which had made the heart desolate. Like the woman at the Well, people did not know where and how to worship the Lord. John 4:20 (KJV) Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. She could not have the privilege to stand in the presence of God. she being a Gentile could not enter the courts of the temple, where only the High Priest could go beyond the Vale. But here, talking to this Woman, was the Vail, that would be taken away. 2 Cor. 3:13-16 (KJV) And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: [14] But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ. [15] But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their heart. [16] Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. This individual had not been allowed to be equal to all of the other’s. Those that say to you and me, you set at my feet, and when someone that is of a goodly sort, sit up here. I have my doubts as to who these are. Maybe they are ministers of Satan. 2 Cor. 11:14-15 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. [15] Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. This woman at the well, she could now finally go into the Father and sit down in his presence through the Spirit, and not have to go through Man. She now did not have to have a degree in physiology or have anyone’s approval or permission to worship the Lord. This woman was not looking for the Lord, she was only satisfying her thirst of the body. She was not found through the Priesthood, She found Jesus, because Jesus found her. Romans 10:20 (KJV) But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. Jesus came to tell her that she was something of value, that her sins and hope was standing there. All she needed to do was to look no further than where she was standing. Wish we could see that God is as close as our mouth. Isaiah 57:15 (KJV) For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. He shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, Those that put the middle wall of partition between man and God. like this woman at the well, these words are to them. Matthew 23:38 (KJV) Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. Luke 13:35 (KJV) Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Those Jews that had everything figured out and had it the way they wanted it to be, found that their house was left desolate. The Temple that they admired and trusted in came tumbling down. They were scattered throughout the world. As the Jews said. Matthew 27:25 (KJV Then answered all the people, and said, “His blood be on us, and on our children. until the consummation, God, through Jesus let Moses and Elijah know that he, being God, and not man, was going to Bring Mercy in and overspread the Abomination that the Devil had caused there in the Temple in Jerusalem. Jesus was going to make those that had put their trust in the flesh, those that had desired to have the high seat, and to allow Satan, to take the place of God, the Heart, which is the Temple of the Holy Ghost. 2 Cor. 6:16 (KJV) And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. There is a consummation that is determined upon the whole earth. Luke 21:33-36 (KJV) Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. [34] And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. [35] For as a snare shall it come on all of them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. [36] Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. God has determined that flesh and blood will not inherit the kingdom of Heaven. 1 Cor. 15:50 (KJV) Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. God is looking for those that will worship him in Spirit and Truth. John 4:24 (KJV) God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. You and I have the promise that as those, that are not of God, have a promise. Their promise is total annihilation away from God and to be destroyed from Gods presence forever. To go into the Lake of Fire and to be in torment. Our promise is to escape that consummation and to inherit eternal life. Rev. 3:10 (KJV) Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Jesus is sitting on the right hand of God making intercessions for us and is holding this Consummation period back by his Mercy. Most are looking for and teaching that there will be Seven Years of Tribulation that is to come. This Seven Year Tribulation was to come upon the Earth and to try them. Rev. 14:7 (KJV) Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. We are to worship Jesus Christ; He has shown his mercy and judgment is delayed and no one knows for sure when he will come for his saints. But know this one thing, that Jesus was made a curse. Galatians 3:13 (KJV) Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree: Jesus Christ took that curse that the prophet said would come upon mankind. and there at the Cross and the Three and Half years that Jesus Ministered and took the Authority over Satan and loosed those that Satan had bound, He, Jesus, took the curse upon himself and as he told Moses and Elijah to sit back and watch the Mercy of God take that Curse and the First Half of Tribulation and in the Middle of the Week, he, Jesus Christ was the sacrifice and he pushed the Last part of the Tribulation back with Mercy. As long as Jesus Sits on the right hand of God, he is the one that will hold back that last three and half of consummation and if you are thinking as many does, that there is another chance for you to get right and there will be a time to repent when craft is supposed to prosper. Daniel 8:23-25 (KJV) And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. [24] And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. [25] And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. The Transgressors came to a full there at the Cross. Remember the words of Malachi. Malachi 4:6 (KJV) And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. The Ancient of Days did Sit. and he is sitting on the right hand of Majesty. As long as he sits there, he continues to hold back that remaining Three and Half years called the Consummation. Isaiah 11:4 (KJV) But with righteousness shall he judge the poor and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. God has overspread with his love the Abomination that makes desolate and has given us power to become the Sons of God. John 1:12 (KJV) But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: We are promised to do greater things than that Jesus did. John 14:12 (KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. What is the works that we shall be able to do that Jesus Christ did not and could not do? He was talking of the fact the when we were filled with the Holy Ghost, that we would be able to go among the nations and tarry in the flesh and with the Holy Ghost, reach for Jesus Christ those that are in sin and to be given the privilege to stay on the earth. Jesus said it was expedient for him to go away. John 16:7 (KJV) Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. Jesus could not stay in the flesh; we can have the Holy Ghost and walk in the flesh and tarry longer in the flesh than that Jesus was able to do. He had to go to the father and go soon in order to give his church the power that it needed to accomplish the mission of filling the house of the Father with all of the children that God foreknew from the foundations of the world...Romans 11:2 (KJV) God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying, Elijah had thought he was the only one left that knew God, or that was serving god. Sometimes we think that we are the only one that is doing what god wants done. Jesus has a desire to let us know that we are no alone in our battles, he is there with us. Jesus will open our understanding to the Hidden things of God and reveal the truth to those that desire to know more from his word, Jeremiah 42:4 (KJV) Then Jeremiah the prophet said unto them, I have heard you; behold, I will pray unto the Lord your God according to your words; and it shall come to pass, that whatsoever thing the Lord shall answer you, I will declare it unto you; I will keep nothing back from you. Jesus has there on the Throne all the things that the Father has and will ask for us the things that we desire. Jesus has promised to give us the Desires of our Heart. 1 Chron. 29:18 (KJV) O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this forever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee: Was those Jews, which stood there in the Temple, a real believing Jew. What is a Jew? Romans 2:29 (KJV) But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. Those Jews and the Jews that are in Jerusalem today still do not accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. Like it was when Jesus came, they had made an agreement with Hell...Isaiah 28:18 (KJV) And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. Surely the Jews agreement with Rome and with the Devil, did not deliver them when the overflowing scourge passed through, when all the stones in the manmade, impressive temple, they were thrown down, just as Jesus told the disciples...Matthew 24:2 (KJV) And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. John 1:11 (KJV) He came unto his own, and his own received him not. Today Jesus is coming, like he did with those Jews there in Jerusalem and has shed forth the Holy Ghost. Like those Pharisee’s; Many today are not receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost in their lives and have ridiculed him and have set themselves up, as someone of authority, to say, who and when men can do the things of God and will stand in the Gate of Heaven and turn many away that would come in. John 10:1 (KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. Amos 5:12 (KJV) For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right. Like many today, which stand in the highest seats in the Church to hold dominion over the people. they cause many to turn away from the church. Let me say to you that love the utmost seat. what seat is that you are trying to hold onto. Are you like Lot, Are you protecting God? Lot was so righteous that he was willing to give those perverts his daughter. Genesis 19:6-8 (KJV) And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him, [7] And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly. [8] Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof. I have for the life of me, wondered if and what Lot was thinking. Here the Angles have come to deliver him from the Fire, and he wants to protect the Angles, Is this the way it is today with the church, are we standing near the Consummation? The flames of fire is so near. the end is so near. Are we trying to protect the house of God with such selfness, that we are throwing away, precious jewels. The souls that are somewhat out of the way, those that have, as the woman at the well, who do not know anymore, what to believe. I thought the Holy Ghost works, as He severally Will. Not as we will. There is a strong warning to those that stand in the Gate. Genesis 28:17 (KJV) And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven. 1 Peter 4:17 (KJV) For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? Oh God I repent and pray that Mercy be extended to all of us. For as Daniel prayed. Daniel 9:15 (KJV) And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly. Jesus has delivered us with a great outstretched hand. We are like those Hebrew children; We have walked in the carnality of our minds. We have been delivered from the flesh though the Lord Jesus Christ and are to be admonished for our sins and pray that Mercy be shown and that a lengthen of our tranquility be added to us. We need to hear from heaven and to know thy precepts and statures. O Lord pardon our sins and hear from Heaven, heal our Land, and reach out with thy Mercy to thousands and bring to thee, O Lord, thy fruit and keep O Lord, those that will call upon thee. We call not, because that we are righteous, be we call on the O Lord because thou art our righteousness. Hear our Prayers and turn not thy face from us, because to us belong confusion, but unto the belong Mercy and righteousness. O Lord, thy people have not done that which thou hast desired and have turned our faces from thee and have turned our backs to thee. Turn us again and heal our land before the consummation comes. Let, O Lord, there be an outpouring of thy Holy Ghost come upon the cities. Take the fire from under the Alter and sprinkle it over the cities and let the wicked forsake his ways. Cleanse our Hearts and make us white as snow. Remove from the wickedness of our thoughts and make us to remember that only thee can preserve us. Come to us now O Lord, before it is too late. Amen. To The WWW Feb 15 08 Down to Here Chapter 8 Seventy Weeks are determined. Daniel 9:24 (KJV) Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Seventy weeks are determined, which could mean to be cut off. To cut one off would be to do away with or cast from you. We have dealt with sixty-two of those weeks. What about the other 8 weeks that is left? What are the meaning of the other eight weeks? The weeks are by most, represent weeks of years, and this is found to have merit in the reasoning of one’s mind. Now to deal with the other eight weeks. It came to my mind as I wondered what it is that the other eight weeks represented and what has come to my understanding is this. Seven, we know is the Holy Number of God and represents all of the things, such as the Seven Spirits, Seven Lamps, Seven Seals, Seven Thunders, and on and on. There are 391 references of the word Seven in the bible, The King James Version, which, as you have noticed that I have used in this book. All these references are no doubt to enlighten us on what Seven means. Could This Seven + One week, equaling eight mean something special that God would disclose to one that is hungry for the meaning? I now intend to explore the meaning of the word Seven. Now I will express the thought that comes to my mind. When John was exiled to the Isle of Patmos, John was given a revelation of God. After John was allowed to see Jesus Christ in his Majesty. John was to write to Seven Churches of Asia. When we read about what Jesus told him to write, we can, see that in these churches was a mixture of both Evil and they that were Righteous. Some of the People was very Evil and some was in a state of lukewarm state. Now I have written that of the Sixty-Two weeks and understand it, but what about the last Eight weeks that Daniel was writing about? Could the Seven weeks that follow that of the Sixty-Two be the Seven Churches of Asia? We know that the false prophet is to come from out of the Seven and is the Eighth: Rev. 17:9-18 (KJV) And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. [10] And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. [11] And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. [12] And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. [14] These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. [15] And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. [16] And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. [17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. [18] And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. We have an additional Explanation to offer to the reader that is of importance. This would be the explanation of the Woman on the Scarlet colored Beast. Rev. 17:15-18 (KJV) And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. [16] And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. [17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. [18] And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. We know that a whore is someone that sells themselves such as for prostitution. This Whore can and is a Church that has taken to themselves the name of Jesus Christ and the church is the bride of Jesus Christ. Isaiah 49:18-26 (KJV) Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the Lord, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth. [19] For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away. [20] The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell. [21] Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been? [22] Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. [23] And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me. [24] Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered? [25] But thus saith the Lord, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children. [26] And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the Lord am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. There are many that have come to the Mighty One, that is Jesus Christ, the Groom. Those that have taken to themselves to wear the Garments of self-righteousness, they are among these of the sea of multitudes that have said that they are Christians, who love to sell themselves to the world and the lust of the world. A woman that is married to a husband and loves the world is that of a whore or adulterer. Even like it is with a Whore, when they have sold themselves, there is no respect to that individual and no value is placed on that one. In fact, they cannot be trusted and do not qualify for motherhood. They will raise their daughters to the same trait. After Satan gets what he wants he will discard them as a piece of trash. Judas went to the priest to repent; Matthew 27:4 (KJV) Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, “What is that to us? see thou to that. Satan does not regard the desire of the woman. Her desire it to her husband and to bring children and to raise those children into productive and honest individuals. These Seven Churches will bring from it those that will give power to the beast and the false prophet. 1 John 2:19 (KJV) They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. Paul warned those that would not spare the flock. Acts 20:29 (KJV) For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. This eight is that which will and will have come up out of these seven churches and he will be the eight church that will deceive the very elect if it is possible. Rev. 17:11 (KJV) And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. Rev. 17:12-18 (KJV) And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. [13] These have one mind and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. [14] These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. [15] And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. [16] And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. [17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. [18] And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. Here we have those that have prostituted themselves and have claimed to be the living Church of Jesus Christ and have taken a wedding garment and have put it on for to be seen of men. Matthew 22:11-12 (KJV) And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: [12] And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Now we know that in heaven there is no more admission to those that have not been born of the Spirit. Yet this one comes into the wedding feast without a wedding garment on. Those that have the robes of self-righteousness are among the Christians, and they walk among us in the churches. John was seeing those of the church ages from the time of Jesus Crucifixion until the church is caught up. Out of these Seven churches we can see the warnings and also the ones that have the testimony of Jesus Christ and who love not in words only but love indeed and truth. 1 John 3:18 (KJV) My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but indeed, and in truth. Our actions speak louder than our words. The Pharisee’s had a reputation of having spoken things that could be followed, yet the Lord said not to do as they do. 2 Kings 17:15 (KJV) And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the Lord had charged them, that they should not do like them. Now concerning these Seven Churches. Why would Jesus want John to write letters to them? The Emphasis was that of Hearing what the Spirit had to say. Rev. 2:7 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. Rev. 2:11 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. Rev. 2:17 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. Rev. 2:29 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Rev. 3:6 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Rev. 3:13 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Rev. 3:22 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. We find that Seven times he made this statement. Seven of those Eight years represented that seven Years of weeks represented the Seven Churches. What was found in the Church of Jesus Christ from his Crucifixion until the Coming back to earth for his Saints. After these Churches came more of the Same sayings for the people to hear. To hear what God is saying, and If they heed to the Hearing of what the Spirit was saying, these promises are to be given to those that will hear. Rev. 2:7 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. Here we have the Tree of Life, which is in the Mist, or Middle, of the Paradise of God. »Strong's Help paradeisos, Greek 3857, Strong's paradeisos, par-ad'-i-sos; of Oriental origin [compare Hebrew 6508 (pardec)]; a park, i.e. (special) an Eden (place of future happiness, "paradise") :- paradise. Strangely, this is just what Jesus told the thief on the cross. Luke 23:43 (KJV) And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. These Seven weeks represent the Age of the Church and of that when the Overspreading of Abominations that maketh desolate. and for the overspreading of abominations, he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. Just as Jerusalem was made desolate, because of their rejection of Christ, These that reject the Holy Ghost in the house of God and reject the Holy Ghost in their lives, not only do we have in the churches, but those also that are strong in the Lord, we have those of different, and not so strong. God has determined to fulfill all of his promises. Isaiah 10:23 (KJV) For the Lord God of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land. Isaiah 28:22 (KJV) Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth. Daniel 9:24 (KJV) Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Daniel 11:36 (KJV) And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done. Acts 17:26 (KJV) And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; These seven weeks, I believe is the State of being of both the Saints of God and Satan in his disciples that he has transformed into disciples of the Lord. 2 Cor. 11:14-15 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. [15] Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. While the mystery of Iniquity is working during this seven-church age, we know that Satan, was cast out into the earth at the cross, Rev. 12:12 (KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. When Jesus was Born, he was there and so was his disciples. Judas was a devil. John 6:70 (KJV) Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? Satan took the flesh as his habitation and is working as a mystery, like Jesus was a mystery, Satan wants to incarnate himself into the flesh as the God of this world. Satan is held back, 2 Thes. 2:7 (KJV) For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. The Spirit of Antichrist is in the world, 1 John 2:18 (KJV) Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. Why do not people know more about the Spirit of Antichrist? The spirit of antichrist was there in Jerusalem when Jesus came, and those Jews, like the Jews today did not receive them and neither do the Jews of the flesh that is there today receive him. Why is the church’s today so wrapped up in having their hope on the carnal Jew. Paul made it clear that a Jew is a Jew inward. Romans 2:28-29 (KJV) For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: [29] But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. Most of the churches act like that if they pray for the Jew that they will find a special favor with God, now, I am not saying that you should not pray for the carnal Jew, You should pray for all mankind, God is not a respecter of person. Romans 10:12 (KJV) For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. Getting off of that subject and back to the 8 weeks left. It is my opinion that the seven weeks after the sixty two weeks that was fulfilled, the next seven is being fulfilled while the new testament church is under the Grace period. This brings up the Last week, the Seventieth week, what is that week and what does it represent? It declares to us that this last week was the one that mankind was to be judged and to be consumed by the wrath of God. The first half of that week, Jesus took on himself as a curse that was for all mankind and everything that existed, God loved the world and, could not, come to the point to destroy man altogether, God allowed himself through his Son Jesus to take the first half of the curse and he took that onto the cross and then took it to Hell for those that will call on him and follow him, doing so, he took away the first half of tribulation and the only part left is the last half of the tribulation. This is where the Seventieth week comes into the picture. That week represents the beast and his Kingdom. This week is for the Devil and his prophet and those that follow him. This week is for all those who oppose God and have killed and laughed at those that have followed Jesus Christ. Yes, God took the first half, which is the curse and laid upon Jesus that Part But remember that he said to the Harlot that sat upon the Scarlet colored beast, that she would have to take the cup and that it would be doubled. Rev. 18:6 (KJV) Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. This is the antichrist, and the church that bears the name of Jesus and yet commits fornication. A wife that is married to a man and commits fornication with other men, is called a whore. This is what the Harlot Church is in revelation. Rev. 17:4-11 (KJV) And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: [5] And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. [6] And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. [7] And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. [8] The beast that thou sawest was and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. [9] And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. [10] And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. [11] And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. Here is the Seventieth week. This is the Harlot Church sitting upon the Beast. the beast is that Devil that stood in front of Eve and promised here that she could be her own God and do as she please. This woman is all those that wear the name of Jesus and commit whoredom with the word, which refuses to come out from among the world. 2 Cor. 6:17 (KJV) Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. Col. 2:21 (KJV) (Touch not; taste not; handle not; These that sit in the high seats and love the uppermost seats have transformed themselves into disciples of the lord. These will give their power to the beast and have given their power to the beast and the power is that of Satan, These feast among you. Jude 1:12 (KJV) These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Rev. 13:1-18 (KJV) And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. [2] And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. [3] And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. [4] And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? [5] And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. Satan had power to bring to pass the fulfilling of the word of God there at the Cross and for three and half years he walked along side of Jesus as Jesus healed and cast out devils, Satan was given Power by the People and the rulers there in the temple of Jerusalem and the power that was given to him, allowed him to take Jesus and hang him on the Cross. After forty-two months he was stripped of his power and that power was given to the Church in the upper room at the day of Pentecost. Satan then lost his power over the Saints and tried to destroy the church and we know that Jesus said that. Matthew 16:18 (KJV) And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Upon the foundation of Peter’s belief and willingness to follow Jesus and to be taken up to the Upper room where he received the Holy Ghost and began to speak in other tongues as the spirit gave utterance, Peter received power to become the Son of God. He now and all that will follow and not love their lives until death shall overcome. Rev. 12:11 (KJV) And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. This beast that will have his power is the same beast that was in the Garden of Eden, now he has no access to the Garden of Eden, which is Paradise, and he is filled with wrath because he has been kicked out of the kingdom of God and has no access to the kingdom and he is out to destroy everything and the church. The sea that the beast rises out of is the people of the earth and the wicked will give this individual the power to even do miracles in the sight of the beast. [14] And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. This is the Eight and is of the SEVEN. He is rising up among the church world and the church world has given themselves over to fornication. Ephes. 4:19 (KJV) Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness. [6] And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. [7] And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. [8] And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. [9] If any man have an ear, let him hear. [10] He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. [11] And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. [12] And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. [13] And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, [14] And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [15] And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. [16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich, and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: [17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. [18] Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Cain was the first murder and he was the first that Satan had come into with his seed and Cain received a mark and that mark was a number and the number represented that they that went in the way of Cain and followed his ways would be like Cain, driven from the presence of God and would not enter into the kingdom of Heaven, that is if they don’t repent and turn to God with all their heart and soul. Judas was the son of Perdition. John 17:12 (KJV) While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. 2 Thes. 2:3 (KJV) Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; As God made Adam the similitude of the Son of God, Jesus Christ, Satan is destined to incarnate himself, as God did in Jesus Christ, Satan wants his Son to come into the world and will incarnate himself into a prophet that is to deceive many. saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [15] And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. [16] And he causeth all, both small and great, rich, and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: [17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. The revealing of this false prophet is to come when the saints are taken to the clouds to meet the Lord in the Air. 2 Thes. 2:1-12 (KJV) Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, [2] That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. [3] Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; [4] Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. [5] Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? [6] And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. [7] For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. [8] And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: [9] Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, [10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. [11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: [12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. The coming of the Lord will reveal who is of God and who is not. Do you have the Spirit of God, or do you have the Spirit of Antichrist? Does he tell you that ye shall not die, that lie was told to Eve and she believed the strong delusion. These that tell you that you will never die and allow you to justify yourselves into thinking that you can do whatever you want to and not have to worry, we will, as they say, you can live with anything, but can you die with it? This beast, In my opinion is the last week and is the week of darkness and has been defeated and even he has been given the chance to repent as Christ took the forty two months of the Curse and laid it onto him, there is still the consummation that is determined upon the whole earth and to you that will not repent, this consummation will be a time of trouble like there has never been or will ever be again. Daniel 12:1 (KJV) And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. This was the time there when Jesus came and died, yet God did as I said took the first part of tribulation and placed it upon his son Jesus. Satan and his Host of angels fought at the Cross to keep Jesus from finishing the mission that he came for. There was war in heaven. Rev. 12:7 (KJV) And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, The earth turned dark for three hours as the Angles fought at the Cross. Mark 15:33-34 (KJV) And when the sixth hour came, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. [34] And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Yes, Satan caused the earth to be covered with darkness at the time of Adam’s Creation. Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Form: »Strong's Help tohuw, Hebrew 8414, Strong's tohuw, to'-hoo; from an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), i.e., desert; figurative a worthless thing; adverbial in vain :- confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness. Satan the beast that was upon the earth, began his attempt to conquer the earth for himself. Satan corrupted the earth as he occupied it. The earth became void and Satan. caused darkness to come upon the deep. This is where the darkness came into the picture. Satan being an Angel of light, through his attempt to overthrow God, fell from heaven, Satan fell from the presence of Truth. Heaven is Truth. Heaven is a highly exalted place that where God dwells. Isaiah 6:1 (KJV) In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Jesus said that he beheld Satan’s Fall. Luke 10:18 (KJV) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Satan did not like to retain the truth as Paul wrote to the Romans about those that were reprobates. Romans 1:28 (KJV) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; We know that the Mystery of Iniquity is at work at this time: 2 Thes. 2:7 (KJV) For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. Christ became a mystery to the world, and for this reason he was hid to those that were not of faith. Job 24:1 (KJV) Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days? Those that knew not the hope and failed to look to the promise, they did not see the day of the lord when he was coming to take the sins of mankind and pardon them. Only those that were in the bosom of faith saw the lord and his day. END John 8:56 (KJV) Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it and was glad. Abraham believe God and it was counted to him for righteousness and he was allowed to see the day that Jesus would be the supreme sacrifice for the sins of the world. Satan will be revealed in his time. 2 Thes. 2:3-12 (KJV) Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; [4] Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. [5] Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? [6] And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. [7] For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. [8] And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: [9] Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, [10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. [11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: [12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Satan wanted to be like the most High. Isaiah 14:12-14 (KJV) How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! [13] For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: [14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. What Satan is saying to those Angels that he was able to deceive, I will be like God, I will be the Son of God. When he caused the Darkness to come upon the earth and made it void of wisdom, Satan prepared himself to set in the seat of God. This seat was the Heart of Man. This he did not go directly to. God wanted and did make a vessel of Beauty when he made Eve. God had put love into Adam and when Eve was taken from him and became a living soul also, Adam was overwhelmed and loved Eve. I suppose that one could say that he cherished her and would have done anything to please her. Eve did not, or must not have too much difficulty, as most men today falling into the trap, or the devise that Satan uses on them. Most men today will do just about anything to have a female to satisfy their desires. Could this have been the thing that Satan caused her to take of? Did he put lust into Eve? Did Eve have a relationship, an intimate relationship with Satan. Men and women have said to have dreams of fantasies of male and female whom they have never seen or heard of and cannot identify them. These come to mind when they are asleep, and the fantasies become real to them. In the Dictionary the female demon is said to have the name of Succubus. The male demon is and has a similar name. Now no one can prove this to be actual, but there is a reference of those that were in the days of old, men of renown, whom many believe to be the Fallen Angels. Genesis 6:1-8 (KJV) And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, [2] That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. [3] And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. [4] There were giants in the earth in those days; and also, after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bear children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. [5] And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. [6] And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. [7] And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. [8] But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. Now we know that as Jesus was able to eat with the disciples, that the angels were able to eat those things that were prepared for them. Genesis 18:2-8 (KJV) And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, [3] And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: [4] Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree: [5] And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said. [6] And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth. [7] And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it. [8] And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat. I want to bring to the reader the thought that, when God made male and female, he refers to more than just one male and female. Genesis 1:27-28 (KJV) So, God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. [28] And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Replenish, is to make full. or to re-fill the earth, lets the reader know that the earth must have been occupied at one era. Notice that I did not say, At one Time. The reason I did not say time, was the I believe that when Adam and Eve were driven from the presence of the Garden of Eden, they were placed into the realm of time. When man is held in time, he cannot pass over to the other side, that Gulf was mentioned when the rich man begged Abraham to send Lazarus back to the Earth. Luke 16:24-31 (KJV) And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. [25] But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. [26] And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. [27] Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: [28] For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. [29] Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. [30] And he said, Nay, Father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they would repent. [31] And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. Abram was in Faith, Faith is Jesus Christ, and the rich man, who had no concern for his fellow man, reached his destination and all of his riches could not cool down the fames of Hell. This man became a believer, but it was too late. He then wanted to become a missionary to his brothers. I want to let those that say that God would not send anyone to Hell, let you know that Hell is real, and this was in the days of Moses and the Prophets, or the Law was still being the rule at that time. This Gulf that kept him from coming out of hell, is there and cannot be passed over until hell is raised up in the final judgment at the last day. Rev. 20:13-14 (KJV) And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. [14] And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Could it be that the earth was inhabited with male and female before that Adam was taken out of the Earth. Where did Cain get his wife? Did those that were there with Satan as he roamed the earth and had dominion over it, did they corrupt the earth and the Earth become Frozen and could it be that there were those when the frozen Ice Age thawed out, when God said let there be light: Genesis 1:3 (KJV) And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Is this the time that God placed the Sun and Moon and the Stars into existence? If the Sun were placed into existence this would explain the melting of the Ice. The waters were divided. Genesis 1:4-10 (KJV) And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. [5] And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. [6] And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. [7] And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. [8] And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. [9] And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. [10] And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. This would explain how the earth became void, Satan had been transformed into an Angel of light. 2 Cor. 11:14 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. With the light that Satan had when he occupied the earth there would be no need of any light, he was adorned above all of the Angels. Satan was the light of the World. He was; a reflection of Jesus Christ and God Almighty. Satan Gave light to those that were on the earth. I suppose that all the other Angels, and it could be possible, for Michael and Gabriel was there until Satan had sinned against God. Now we know that Satan could Speak and when he appeared to Eve, he had some magnificent ability to have been able to cause Eve to be beguiled. Just what this fruit that he showed to here is not clearly identified. It was called a tree. In the bible the word tree means that it could be a dominion, as Nebuchadnezzar was referred to as at tree. Daniel 4:9-18 (KJV) O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof. [10] Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed; I saw and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was great. [11] The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth: [12] The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof, and all flesh was fed of it. [13] I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a watcher and an holy one came down from heaven; [14] He cried aloud, and said thus, Hew down the tree, and cut off his branches, shake off his leaves, and scatter his fruit: let the beasts get away from under it, and the fowls from his branches: [15] Nevertheless leave the stump of his roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth: [16] Let his heart be changed from man's, and let a beast's heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him. [17] This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men. [18] This dream I king Nebuchadnezzar have seen. Now thou, O Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation thereof, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation: but thou art able; for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee. I could spend a lot of time on the tree and how that Jesus was the one to cut down this tree, this dominion of the Gentiles. Matthew 3:10 (KJV) And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore, every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down and cast into the fire. Jesus is the Axe that did cut down Satan in his attempt to rise and sit in the heart of man. This Tree, as I said, is a dominion. The commandant, or the Law, has dominion over man, until he is brought into the Spirit Kingdom. Romans 7:1 (KJV) Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? This dominion that is over the man, is what Satan used to gain authority over mankind and hold him to the sentence of Death. Satan is the Death sentence, that mankind received. Paul wrote several passages of scripture about and concerning this. 2 Cor. 4:11-12 (KJV) For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. [12] So then death worketh in us, but life in you. Satan was able to either come across when the Ice Age melted and was able to corrupt the earth in the days of Noah. This is a mystery of Iniquity that we cannot understand fully. We are warned that it has been working from the beginning and is still working today and we need to be not deceived into following his devices. 2 Cor. 2:11 (KJV) Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. God made it plain to Job that without the help of God, he was no match for Satan. Job 40:1-42:6 (KJV) Moreover, the Lord answered Job, and said, [2] Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it. [3] Then Job answered the Lord, and said, [4] Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will lay mine hand upon my mouth. [5] Once have I spoken; but I will not answer: yea, twice; but I will proceed no further. [6] Then answered the Lord unto Job out of the whirlwind, and said, [7] Gird up thy loins now like a man: I will demand of thee and declare thou unto me. [8] Wilt thou also disannul my judgment? wilt thou condemn me, that thou mayest be righteous? [9] Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him? [10] Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty. [11] Cast abroad the rage of thy wrath: and behold every one that is proud and abase him. [12] Look on every one that is proud and bring him low; and tread down the wicked in their place. [13] Hide them in the dust together; and bind their faces in secret. [14] Then will I also confess unto thee that thine own right hand can save thee. [15] Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. [16] Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. [17] He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. [18] His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. [19] He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. [20] Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. [21] He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens. [22] The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. [23] Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. [24] He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares. [41:1] Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? [2] Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn? [3] Will he make many supplications unto thee? will he speak soft words unto thee? [4] Will he make a covenant with thee? wilt thou take him for a servant forever? [5] Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens? [6] Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants? [7] Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears? [8] Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more. [9] Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him? [10] None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me? [11] Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine. [12] I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion. [13] Who can discover the face of his garment? or who can come to him with his double bridle? [14] Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about. [15] His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal. [16] One is so near to another, that no air can come between them. [17] They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. [18] By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. [19] Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out. [20] Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron. [21] His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth. [22] In his neck remaineth strength, and sorrow is turned into joy before him. [23] The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm in themselves; they cannot be moved. [24] His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone. [25] When he raiseth up himself, the mighty are afraid: by reason of breakings, they purify themselves. [26] The sword of him that layeth at him cannot hold: the spear, the dart, nor the habergeon. [27] He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood. [28] The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble. [29] Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear. [30] Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire. [31] He maketh the deep to boil like a pot: he maketh the sea like a pot of ointment. [32] He maketh a path to shine after him; one would think the deep to be hoary. [33] Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear. [34] He beholdeth all high things: he is a king over all the children of pride. [42:1] Then Job answered the Lord, and said, [2] I know that thou canst do everything, and that no thought can be withholden from thee. [3] Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. [4] Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak: I will demand of thee and declare thou unto me. [5] I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee. [6] Wherefore I abhor myself and repent in dust and ashes. Here is the Lord speaking to Job and letting him know that Satan would sift him as wheat. When Jesus said to Peter, that Satan desired to sift him as wheat. Luke 22:31-34 (KJV) And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: [32] But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. [33] And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death. [34] And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me. Here is the basis of my writing of this book, to reveal to the reader that Peter, though kept by the grace of God, he needed to be converted to the work of God. This conversion came on the day of Pentecost. Peter had been given the same lesson that Job had been given, that he was no match for Satan. J Jesus is the one that sits on the throne, and I believe that if Jesus would walk away from that throne and let up for a moment that Satan in his Anger and rage would devour all of those that walk in the flesh. We do not have any idea what took place there on the cross and if we, I say, If we fail to accept the Grace of God that was there on the cross, we cannot and will not be pardoned. This is in my opinion the worst Sin; this is the Sin of Blasphemy. Let me make known to you that try to deny the Baptism of the Holy Ghost and say that it is not for us in this day. You are close to Hell’s Fire, unless you are doing it in Ignorance, and you must repent and be filled with the Holy Ghost. You want to know what Abortion is about. Yes, we know that around thirty-five million babies have been cut out of their chance to live a life in this world by those that have taken to themselves to be like Gods. Just as Eve was driven from the presence of the Garden of Eden and man became sinner of all time. We are just as guilty of Aborting the Holy Ghost out of our Churches and the lives of those that profess to be saints of God. Could this be the robe that is Given to the Saints that possess the kingdom. This is the Voice of God, and this is what Paul in the nineteen chapter of Acts. was speaking of. How can you minister stand in the pulpit and speak against the Holy Ghost and deny the power thereof escape the damnation of Hell? Stephen was full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom and his countenance did shine, and those that resisted stoned him to death, He looked up and saw the lord Standing on the right hand of God. This is the only mention of him getting up from his seat there on the throne. Could it be that he said to the father, can I go; and resurrect the church now and not wait any longer. After all he did rise to his feet. When the Ice age came and all of the prehistoric animals and all that existed were wiped out. The writer, they credit it to Moses, and who really knows who was writing the record of the creation. After that, that beast of the field corrupted the earth and made it void and caused everything to be frozen. Job 38:30 (KJV) The waters are hidden as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen. When God said: Genesis 1:3 (KJV) And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. God reached down after it thawed and took a handful of dust and breathed upon it and life came into that soul and that soul began to live and to allow Adam to live in the right environment. While the earth was taking shape once again, God took Adam, and Planted a Garden and put the Man in the Garden of Eden. Adam had paradise and lost it. Some today have had a taste of Paradise and have lost it. Some have had been filled with the Holy Ghost and have turned again and like the dog, they have turned to their own vomit. 2 Peter 2:20-22 (KJV) For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. [21] For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. [22] But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. Here we see that these turned from the commandant. The Law of God and would not, retain the knowledge of the lord and Savior. I realize that this is not what some want to hear. Ask yourself are you like you were when you first came to Jesus? Have you lost your first love? Rev. 2:1-5 (KJV) Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; [2] I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: [3] And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. [4] Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee because thou hast left thy first love. [5] Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. The light will go out if there is no oil in the Lamp. Remember the virgins. Matthew 25:1-13 (KJV) Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. [2] And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. [3] They that were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them: [4] But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. [5] While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. [6] And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. [7] Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. [8] And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. [9] But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. [10] And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. [11] Afterward also came the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. [12] But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. [13] Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. The question is, Can we walk after the flesh, do the things of the flesh, and enter the Kingdom of Heaven? I do not want to wait to get there and find myself with no oil, or not having the Spirit in this temple. They that have not the Spirit are none of his. Romans 8:9 (KJV) 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. Rev. 2:11 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. Rev. 2:17 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. Eccles. 3:18 (KJV) I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. Matthew 23:4 (KJV) For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 2 Peter 2:19 (KJV) While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. Proverbs 16:1 (KJV) The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord. Rev. 15:5 (KJV) And after that I looked, and behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: Rev. 15:1-16:21 (KJV) And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God. [2] And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. [3] And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. [4] Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest. [5] And after that I looked, and behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: [6] And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles. [7] And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. [8] And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled. [16:1] And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. [2] And the first went and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. [3] And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea. [4] And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. [5] And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. [6] For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. [7] And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true, and righteous are thy judgments. [8] And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. [9] And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. [10] And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, [11] And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores and repented not of their deeds. [12] And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. [13] And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. [14] For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. [15] Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. [16] And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. [17] And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. [18] And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. [19] And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nation’s fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. [20] And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. [21] And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. All of this was Stayed when Jesus Gave his life on the Cross and we would not and cannot afford to take this lightly as this is waiting like a Large Dam that has backed up behind the dam with the wrath of God, The Dam is old and cracks are showing and the wrath like water that is above the dam is to be loosed. No one knows when the dam will give away, but, when it does, there will be a devastating effect. as the above scriptures states, we need to quit fighting and arguing over who is the greatest and be like Jesus and gird the towel around us and start to wash the saints feet and to not only wash the saints feet but to go the extra mile when we are asked. Souls are hanging in the balances, and we are fighting among ourselves, and it is hard to get those lost sinners to come to church. They will tell you that they feel worse when they leave than when they come in. what is wrong? We are being deluded into thinking that we do not have to worry and to have to give account for those around us. Remember that the judgment begins, not at the corner bar, but begins at the house of God. There is hope for the church and God is that hope and if the Holy Ghost would have an open invitation into our mist and our homes, He then would go with us to the House of God and He, The Holy Ghost would pastor, and teach the church body. We would be counted as the least, Remember what Jesus said about John the Baptist. Matthew 11:11-15 (KJV) Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. [12] And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. [13] For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. [14] And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come. [15] He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. Are you looking and arguing about Elijah coming? Elijah has already come. Matthew 11:9-10 (KJV) But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet. [10] For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. Matthew 17:12 (KJV) But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise, shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Are you still in unbelief and want to dispute the fact that Jesus when he was on the cross. He finished all except the last forty-two months. Jesus said. John 19:30 (KJV) When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. Jesus finished and he was the end of the Law to them that believe. Romans 10:4 (KJV) For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth. Luke 1:13-17 (KJV) But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. [14] And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. [15] For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb. [16] And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God. [17] And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. Jesus said that the Kingdom of Heaven suffered violence up until John the Baptist, and he also stated that the violent took it by force. Matthew 11:12 (KJV) And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. This is where we miss the revelation of what Jesus had done for all the saints of God on the cross. As Job was given into the hand of Satan to try him and as Satan continually came in the presence of God when the Old Testament Saints appeared, Satan appeared there also. Job 1:6 (KJV) Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them. Page 1 Thru 100 Entered Edit Text Page 400 thru To The End of Book We that are Spiritual have the following comfort and I think it would be meet to place these words into this passage for your learning and if we would follow the advice of the following that we would be comforted to know that these words would deliver us up to the father and he will say well done my faithful servant. We are not to be Ignorant to what is happening, If we are ignorant it is because we choose to be or we have let ourselves be deceived into becoming ignorant. Paul wrote these scriptures to the Thessalonians to warn them and to comfort them as to what would take place in the coming of the Lord. 1 Thes. 4:13-5:24 (KJV) But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. [14] For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. [15] For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. [16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so, shall we ever be with the Lord. [18] Wherefore comfort one another with these words. [5:1] But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. [2] For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. [3] For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. [4] But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. [5] Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. [6] Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. [7] For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. [8] But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. [9] For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, [10] Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. [11] Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. [12] And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; [13] And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves. [14] Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. [15] See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. [16] Rejoice evermore. [17] Pray without ceasing. [18] In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. [19] Quench not the Spirit. [20] Despise not prophesyings. [21] Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. [22] Abstain from all appearance of evil. [23] And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. [24] Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. Psalm 23:1-6 (KJV) A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. [2] He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. [3] He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. [4] Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. [5] Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. [6] Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. I want to deal with some things that has been covered in the writings of the article, or book, I would like to call it a document. As a document it is to record that which is given to someone, in this, I feel that the Holy Ghost have given me a deeper insight as to knowing what God has placed into existence. We are sometime and I might say a majority of people read the word of God and to know what the word is revealing to the reader takes some considerable digging, or should I say, removing the overburdens. The miner that is seeking Gold or a precious stone, he, or she will have to remove the mass of dirt or dig deep under the dirt, and, rocks that hide from them the genuine diamond or Gold, or whatever precious material that one is seeking. In searching the word of God, we have to do the same thing figural speaking, we need to dig down deep into the word to find the real message that God has placed into the Word for us to be sustained in our everyday lives. One thing that I want the reader to understand is that God has not written the word of God, that it would and cannot be understood, as some has said. There is those that believe that God word cannot be understood fully by us human beings. This is a copout for an excuse for those that believe that to, well, relieve them of the responsibility of searching and removing the over burden, like that of a miner. The reader must understand that God has instituted into Jesus Christ a solution to all of mankind's needs and desires. God made the world and all things that exist in Jesus Christ. Col. 1:17 (KJV) And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. Notice that this verse states right up front that Jesus is before all things, This is why that we must put him before any decision that is to be made, if we are to know what God has placed in his plan for us. You and I cannot find or arrive at completion until we realize this first of all. Most, when reading and trying to understand The book of Revelation, want to start this revelation from the time that John was on the Isle of Patmos. This is a mistake; You cannot make the revelations of this book be understood by this method. Revelation must be taken back, and way back, before time ever came into existence. To say that Revelation started at Patmos, is saying that Jesus did not exist before that time. To many he did not exist to them. That does not limit him to that existence...that of when he really exists to an individual. Jesus said right up front to John. Rev. 1:11 (KJV) Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea. I could refer the reader to many more passages that tell of his existence, where he was before all things, and that all things exists through him. I have already in these writing revealed that to the reader, so I shall continue on to what I feel is very important. When we sit down to a computer, we can look at the monitor in front of us and can in an instant see what our mind is trying to reveal and the actions of our fingers as we type this information on the keyboard. As long as it is on the screen of the monitor, it is in an unsafe state, and by that, I mean that anything can happen, such as the power can go off or the computer hard drive can crash, causing you to lose all of your thoughts that you have typed into the computer. I had that to happen to me, as, one day I typed those things that The Spirit revealed to me into the computer, for about two and half hours I was receiving such an anointing and was so involved in the typing that I forgot to save it and, you guessed it, the power went off and there went from the computer memory all that I had typed for those two and half hours. I said in despair, Oh No, I tried to recover it and to no avail all was lost on the computer. Now I have and do keep in mind to save the information every few minutes. This is the way it is with reading the Word of God, and that is why The Lord caused the ones that received the word of God to write it in what we call the bible, or a group of books. John made mention of the fact that all the things that Jesus did was not recorded in the Bible and could not, because the world itself could not contain the books that would record all the things that Jesus did. John 21:25 (KJV) And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written everyone, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen. Some would say that the Bible and the saying is all that God wants us to understand, and I would be the first to admit that if we understood the bible and held it in our hearts and walked in it, yes, it is sufficient to take you through this world. I also have to hold onto the Idea that God is still speaking to his prophets today and has spoken to his prophets ever since the beginning and has revealed to those his prophesies and I am convinced that all that God has revealed, that, it has not been recorded. These words in this text or document, I believe, has been given to me through the Holy Ghost and that the Holy Ghost still today and will until the Lord comes back, is spiritual and is beneficial and does not in any way take away from that which is written in the Bible. I never want to add to the Bible, or take anything away from the Bible, and I know that it is the Inspired word of God. I guess I should at this time get into what I have received by the Spirit, That is, how important it is to each of us to realize that, and we must understand, that when all things came into existence that Jesus was there, and he was before it all. I want the reader to understand that for to receive from God, you must see that which, not only exists at the time of the need or occasion, you must see that any and every answer or solution to that which we need or desire, has been before the foundation of the world, and the answer or solution was placed into Jesus Christ before it ever existed in this existence. What I am saying to the reader is, that you cannot exist yourself and did not just come into existence when you were conceived in the womb nor when your mother and father came into existence, you were there in Jesus Christ before the world and the Heavens were in existence. I believe that unless that the existence of the world and those things that exists in the world, had they not have been in Jesus Christ they could not have existed at all. John 1:3 (KJV) All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. David in the Twenty Third Psalm revealed this to the reader if we will dig into the truth of just what David was saying, In fact what he and all the others that wrote the Bible, all that they said and recorded, was in essence written or recorded in Jesus Christ before that individual spoke it. Notice in the Twenty Third Psalm, how David, when he speaks, speaks of that which is and was already. It just doesn’t come to the screen like a computer doesn’t bring it on the monitor, until it is typed, and it cannot be typed until the mind receives and when it is typed it has to be saved onto the hard drive and after it is save onto the hard drive, it then can be printed out and this is what we call a hard copy. At that point it is ready to become the instructions, or like a road map, will lead the reader to the understanding of the mind that has received this information, At this point, the writing, and the information that has come from either God, or the enemy becomes available to the one that needs to receive it. Then the individual, at that point, can take the information and place it into their memory and go away enlightened to that which he or she might benefit, or, on the other hand, this information could damage this individual. This is why it is important for us to know God through the Holy Ghost. It does not mean that we are not to be exposed to just the Holy and Just things. We are confronted with all sorts of information, We can, like a computer, and do have the ability to filter out certain things that are not for our benefit. The computer has filters in its system that will filter out evil things, such as pornography, and any other things that we do not want to have before our eyes. We are to pray without ceasing. 1 Thes. 5:17 (KJV) Pray without ceasing. You see the more that we rejoice and pray and give thanks to God, we turn on the filter that filters those object able devices that Satan throw at us. We are to put on the whole armor of God. We as soldiers of the Lord are vulnerable to the attack of the enemy. Unless we have the armor of God, we are like a soldier in battle without a weapon and without any training. We would not send a soldier to the battlefield to fight and defend our nation and freedom without giving him the most extensive training and arming him with the tools and weapons that would take the enemy out of action. I cannot sometime understand how that God delivers us as much as he does, the way that we face the enemy. God’s people must, and I reemphasize they must be equipped with whole armor of God. David had his moments that he looked like he would and should be destroyed by God, We must see that David had something that kept him in good standing with God, after all he was the apple of Gods eye. Deut. 32:10 (KJV) He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye. Zech. 2:8 (KJV) For thus saith the Lord of hosts; After the glory hath he sent me unto the nations which spoiled you: for he, that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. God placed into Jesus Christ a plan and that plan cannot be disannulled by our actions. God proved this with David, and he also proved his majesty over and over with those that were call according to his will. Daniel 4:35 (KJV) And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? Israel, the ones he called out to make his name great, they made an agreement with hell, only to find that God disannulled it. Isaiah 28:18 (KJV) And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. If you and I think that what we do can stop God from accomplishing his will, then we are fools. Isaiah 14:24 (KJV) The Lord of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand: Isaiah 14:26-27 (KJV) This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. [27] For the Lord of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? Ephes. 1:9 (KJV) Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: Ephes. 3:11 (KJV) According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: So, to the reader I say, whatever decision that you make, whether it be of God or of Satan, God has known this before the world began, and has placed in Jesus Christ a solution. For us to know what the solution is, we cannot compare the things of the world or the flesh, or should I say the outward appearance to the will of God. We must speak that which is there in Jesus Christ. The only way that we can speak, and know, what the mind or the things that God placed in Jesus before the world came into existence, is to be Filled with the Holy Ghost, and to have the Holy Ghost is to have the mind of God the Father and Jesus Christ. We are to have his son available at all times, and in every give situation. This is why it states that when we have done all that we know to do, then we are to stand. Stand on what? not our ability, we are to stand upon that, like David did, David did not stand on his own righteousness. Had he done that he would have lost the battle. David said, as he was going to battle, Shall I go Up. 2 Samuel 2:1 (KJV) And it came to pass after this, that David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah? And the Lord said unto him, Go up. And David said, “Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron. 2 Samuel 5:19 (KJV) And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up to the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the Lord said unto David, Go up: for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into thine hand. 1 Chron. 14:10 (KJV) And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the Lord said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand. Is Satan defaming you? Is he throwing the fiery darts at you continuously? What damage has he done to you? Take the shield of Faith, that you may quench all, It says ALL, of the fiery darts. not just a few, but all. You may ask how this is possible. First you need to approach God. A lot of people want someone else to approach God for them, like the children of Israel, when they were in sin and disobedient to the will of God. Exodus 34:35 (KJV) And the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him. When we come into the mount of God and the only way that we can approach God is through his Grace and his Spirit. The Holy Ghost will make our face to shine with brightness, Eccles. 8:1 (KJV) Who is as the wise man? and who knoweth the interpretation of a thing? a man's wisdom maketh his face to shine, and the boldness of his face shall be changed. This that was spoken long before the Day of Pentecost, came to light in Peter and in Stephen as they boldly stood in front of the Devil and his followers and proclaimed the word of God and those that were there could not understand the wisdom that they had, especially peter. He was unlearned in this world’s wisdom. God infused him with power from on High, and put in his mouth a sword, and that sword was a two-edged sword and it cut into the hearts of those that stood there. This sword went down to the marrow of the bones and thousands were converted and added to the church. This is what the prophet was talking about in. Eccles. 8.1. O my God, today we need an outpouring of the Spiri, not an outpouring of a will worship, but the true outpouring of the Holy Ghost. Most Christians, and preachers, are ashamed to Say... “Holy Ghost” they want to be careful to not run those that sit there in front of them out. After all they are making merchandise of Jesus. and this was told in the New Testament, that many would come saying” that Jesus was Christ” Luke 21:8 (KJV) And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. Many speak of Christ with their mouth, but their hearts are far from God. Their hearts are far from the truth. We are not to go after them. Why would he not want us to go after them? 2 Peter 2:3 (KJV) And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. »Strong's Help plastos, Greek 4112, Strong's plastos, plas-tos'; from Greek 4111 (plasso); moulded, i.e. (by implication) artificial or (figurative) fictitious (false) :- feigned. This is why I say that we do not need any more books, and I have had reservations as to how and what is the reason of this book. There is a book for just about anything that might be thought of. Certainly, we are to give and not to receive, although it is more blessed to give than to receive. Acts 20:35 (KJV) I have shewed you all things, how that so laboring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. When we look at these ministers on TV and listen to all of the lectures of how that we are to tithe and to give and to send for this book or tape, it kindly sticks into your crow, and if you let it, you would owe them. Paul had some words to say about giving, and we know that God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Cor. 9:7 (KJV) Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. There is many ways to Give, the first way is to give of ourselves, Paul said that he sought the person not their wealth. 2 Cor. 12:14 (KJV) Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. Do you stand and demand that your children pay to you tithes and give something that most of the time, they do not have? It makes me sick to see a pastor stand in a large Cathedral and lay a guilt trip on the people to get enough money to keep the big, beautiful church building going and maybe and even so, some widow that is there cannot even buy the food that she needs for her children. or even for herself, she no doubt scrubs and irons and have gotten calluses so that she can keep that minister, or whatever he is, i have my opinion, and I will not waste my words on this foolishness, Yes that big preacher standing with his suit and mouth can drive the best because he practiced how to lay a guilt trip on the people. Where do we go? Maybe we base it on Solom, we all like to be Solom’s. Solom took the wealth and he concluded that he had missed the whole point and said that all was vain. Eccles. 1:2 (KJV) Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. Who are you, Where did you get you credentials? and what for? . Do you lay grievous burdens on the people, and not lift one finger to relieve them? What is the Credentials of that of Jesus Christ as he walked on the dusty paths, Look at his Credentials, John 13:6-17 (KJV) Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? [7] Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. [8] Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. [9] Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. [10] Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all. [11] For he knew who should betray him; therefore, said he, “Ye are not all clean. [12] So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you? [13] Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am. [14] If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet. [15] For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. [16] Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. [17] If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. In these passages, does it show him sitting in Gold Chairs and doing all these great things to be seen of men. Remember the false prophet, he will be able to do great miracles in the sight of the beast. Rev. 13:14 (KJV) And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. What is the Image of the beast? Remember that in the Garden of Eden, it was said that the Devil was more Subtle than any of the beast of the field. Genesis 3:1 (KJV) Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? »Strong's Help `aruwm, Hebrew 6175, Strong's `aruwm, aw-room'; passive participle of Hebrew 6191 (`aram); cunning (usually in a bad sense) :- crafty, prudent, subtil. Have you not read what Ezekiel wrote about who was to be destroyed? Ezekiel 31:18 (KJV) To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord God. Ezekiel 32:31-32 (KJV) Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, even Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord God. [32] For I have caused my terror in the land of the living: and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that are slain with the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord God. Ezekiel 39:11 (KJV) And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamon-gog. These passages warns us that the multitude, which is many, will be following after the flesh, and Satan took on the flesh as his habitation, and to set himself in the seat of God. Ezekiel 28:2 (KJV) Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: I asked God a few years back, God how can the devil cause the multitude to take the mark of the beast and do it so easly, after all he causes all both rich bond and free to take the mark, I was puzzeled and then God gave me that answer. God said to me. Son, where is my Temple, I then replied ... “in the heart” Then God said that the reason that it is so easy for him to cause them to take them mark was , that they deny and reject God in their hearts and that Grace witholdeth that mark until the church is raptured, then the mark that is already in the heart will be revealed. 2 Thes. 2:6 (KJV) And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. As long as Jesus sits on the Right Hand of The Throne and occupies the hearts of his believers, Satan does not have the power to place that mark on any individual. But, after the Holy Ghost sweeps down and pulls the Saint up into the Air, Then, and Then only, Will there not be one Save Christian on Earth and Then Satan will do what God did through Jesus Christ, He will with the power of all those that have chosen him as their master, Satan will incarnate himself by full authority of the people and set up his image and false Prophet, In one sense he has set many false prophets up and has had those who will, not only be deceived themselves, but work hard to deceive those that are disobedient to the truth and who love the wages of sin. Those that walk-in darkness and have not the light of the Gospel. I have never seen a time like this, as Winston Churchill said. The flesh is exalted on every side, and this is for certain the evidence of that of the coming of Satan with all of his deceivableness. We are warned to not be deceived several times over in the bible. 2 Thes. 1:7-2:12 (KJV) And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [9] Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; [10] When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. [11] Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: [12] That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. [2:1] Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, [2] That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. [3] Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; [4] Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. [5] Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? [6] And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. [7] For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. [8] And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: [9] Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, [10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. [11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: [12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. As you read these passages, pay close attention to the fact that it is the flesh that is ruling in these that will be destroyed with the brightness of his coming. Let me warn you that when they want you to and go about to exalt the man instead of the Risen Savior, then there is at that time a strong delusion among them and That God is the one that sends these strong delusions, the reason is that when God calls and speaks to them, they glorify the flesh and not Jesus Christ. It would do well if we all got down, and I know that you can read for you are reading this. Get down into the Spirit and the word of God and ask God in truth, Shall you Go Up? God will take you up and sit you down with Jesus and through the Holy Ghost will lead you into all truth and get your eyes off of those that exalt themselves and make merchandise of you. God is not in the desert or over in Jerusalem, His spirit is throughout the earth, God lives in our heart and is as Close as Our Mouth. Call on him not man and you will find like Paul, you will be given a revelation of God Word. That Revelation will catch you in the Spirit and you cannot tell whether you were in the body or not. There is those that are looking to the land of Israel for the signs of the coming of the lord, we have to remember that God is not a respecter of person and Paul dealt with this and when we look to Israel the nation and not the Israel of above, i believe we are placing our faith in the flesh instead of the Spirit. God wanted to make a nation, using Moses, The reason that he wanted to do this was that he had about all that he could take from the fleshly minded people that he had called out of all the nations of the world, God wanted to, and did choose these to do his will. Yet they went a whoreing after false Gods and turned their back on God so many times and there at the bottom of the mountain, while Moses was receiving the Law, they made a false god and committed lewd acts. This mountain lit up with the Glory of God and even Moses Face did shine, Moses could not look upon the Glory of God in his full Glory. God had to put his Hand and hide him behind his hand and let Moses see only the afterpart of his Glory. This represented Jesus, which was the Hand that Moses hid behind. The bible clearly states that no man has seen The Father at any time, no one except Jesus which had seen him. Moses was not able to see the Face of The Father and had he seen it, he would have been consumed there on the spot. Jesus was there to hide the full power from that mortal man called Moses. Jesus came and walked among men and revealed the father to us and we today can, like Moses, have the brightness of the Wisdom of God, which is the Holy Ghost, not only upon us, but we can have it to dwell in our lives. Again, when Jesus came, he came to the nation of Israel, which is the Israel of the flesh and as the Law pointed to Calvery, that same Law that the Jews of the flesh trusted became the Judge and Jury to those carnal Jews and they had the sentence of death upon the along with the rest of the world. The Law that was given on Mt Sinaia does not discriminate against different races. The law of Moses reminds everyone that the sentence of death that was imposed there in the Garden of Eden is prevalent on each of us. When death comes it does not care who you are and how rich, or how beautiful you are. The law was made for the trucebreakers and as Paul said, he was involved so much in keeping the law, that he did not see the Messiah that it pointed too. A lot of people, and these go to church and take part in the leadership in the church, can only see those Pharisee’s the commandants and not the Mercy. Paul said that they constrain you to be circumcised so that they can make a fair show. In other words, they have to have you under their yoke and if you are not under their yoke, they would have to do the labor that they place upon you. I was with a District Overseer and when we came from the meeting with the State Overseer, we walked to the Secretary desk and he asked the Secretary and was making an inquiry about another Pastor and his church and i will never forget the question that he asked, You see I would have thought that he would be concerned about the welfare of the church and the members and the pastor, if he was having a lot of souls saved, What he asked was, how many tithes did he bring in for the month, as though if it was a race. Well; I cannot and am not allowed to judge this brother in Christ, but I just could not understand where the love for soul and that it should take precedence over how many tithes that came in the church that month. I am here to say to you the reader that Flesh and Blood cannot please God and Flesh and Blood will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven, yet we cannot get away from letting the flesh dominate our lives and by doing so, the Spirit cannot accomplish the will of the Father. Anything that Glorifies the Flesh, one needs to be aware of. I realize that we must and do deal with the flesh, but as Paul said, there is nothing good about the flesh and when the end comes, this will be how that God gets rid of Satan, God will end all flesh and when all flesh is done away with, then Satan no longer has a habitation to dwell in. Satan was defeated at the Cross and was kicked out of the Heavenly places and arrived into the world into the hearts of mankind and as long a man gives him place in their lives, he will rain and continue to reign as the God of this world. If you are looking for a figure with a red suit and a pitchfork , you can forget that that is a portrayal that man has dreamed up, the real devil is there with you as you walk along this life, and he also walks side by side with you in the church. You see, he loves the uppermost seat and position. After all, If i were Satan I would go to the place that I could do the most harm, and that would be the church where men and women gather, Satan sits in the Heart and that is God’s temple. When he goes to church with you, he walks into the building with and inside a human that is fleshly and not Spiritually, O yes he can wear a robe of righteousness, he can preach, and he will say the truth to a certain point, until he catches you off guard and then he will let the hammer down on you and he will crush you into powder. He only thinks of one thing, which is how he can hold his position and control everyone else, Remember that Jesus Girded the Towel on and bowed to his disciples to wash the dirt of their feet. He could not wash the Pharisees feet. tor they were clean on the outside and did not need washing, Peter on the other hand was clean on the inside, he had a heart that Jesus had cleansed by the shedding of the blood, yet he had not died yet, but on the wise the plan was in effect and would be carried out to the letter. When Jesus died, he died for each and every one and there is no difference in any of the races of the world. We are effective by our actions, we make it impossible for those that would come to God, to come, I do believe that this is why the judgment will begin at the house of God. It does not begin at the Barroom, God wants the heart and when he gets the heart, everything else will follow. Remember that David had salvation, not on his goodness, David deserved to go to hell and like each of us we deserve to go to hell, but thanks to God that from the heart we believe unto the righteousness, and the righteousness is not of our own, the righteousness of Jesus Christ did and will take us to the father and present us holy and blameless. Now to sum up the truth and to recap the thoughts that is written in this article or document, Jesus is everything and in him is everything that is to exist and has existed from the beginning of time and to tap into that and have access to that which exists in Jesus Christ, can only be obtained through the Holy Ghost. Why then do men reject the Holy Ghost? Simply because they love the ways of the flesh and love the God of the flesh and love the wages of sin. This was the message that was there in the Garden of Eden to Eve, go ahead and be your own God, Take of the forbidden fruit and God will not hold you accountable, Today we are still standing inf front of that Tree, and as i said that Tree is Satan’s way of life, He knew God and He corrupted what God gave him and he wants to corrupt everyone that is born into this world, Satan knows that his days are numbered and he wants as much glory and will do just about anything to receive that glory. I can say a Paul said, when i would do good, evil is presence, the thing that i would do i do not and the thing that i allow not, that i do. Now if you find yourself in this situation, you need to look not unto flesh, but you need to look to the member inside you, that is if you have believed on God and repented of your sins, the member lies down deep in your Spirit, and you cannot identify with it with anything that you flesh has to offer. this would include Father, Mother or Tithing, going to church, nothing in these ordinances can identify with that inward man. It cannot be purchased; you cannot be good or work it out. The only way is to fall into the Grace of God and admit as Paul said that, like Paul said, I can do all things through Christ, which strengthens me. God strengthens us by the Quickening of the Holy Ghost and only the Holy Ghost knows what Please the Father and the Holy Ghost will does not, and I say , does not Glory anyone except the Lord Jesus Christ. Anything that Glorifies anything else. Even the angles does not all themselves to be in glory, they only glorify Jesus. As the scripture says, James 4:8 (KJV) Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. Joy of The Lord: December 8, 2002 Neh. 8:10 (KJV) Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Joy is mentioned 155 times in the Bible, We all know, or we think that we know what Joy is. Let us go to strongs to find what it has to say about Joy; »Strong's Help simchah, Hebrew 8057, Strong's simchah, sim-khaw'; from Hebrew 8056 (sameach); blithesomeness or glee, (religious or festival) :- x exceeding (-ly), gladness, joy (-fulness), mirth, pleasure, rejoice (-ing). »Strong's Help sameach, Hebrew 8056, Strong's sameach, saw-may'-akh; from Hebrew 8055 (samach); blithe or gleeful :- (be) glad, joyful, (making) merry ([-hearted], -ily), rejoice (-ing). »Strong's Help samach, Hebrew 8055, Strong's samach, saw-makh'; a primitive root; probably to brighten up, i.e. (figurative) be (causative make) blithe or gleesome :- cheer up, be (make) glad, (have, make) joy (-ful), be (make) merry, (cause to make to) rejoice, x very. From this we can see that God clearly wants his people to share what he, God the Father, is and wants us to experience the same power that is of the Father. One might say that Joy is the Existence of God, whether it be that that on the throne or whether it dwells in the existence of the creation of the world and all that is in the world. To describe the nature or the existence of Joy would only be described as one that has inside of that individual, a real overflowing of excitement. How can we be, or have this excitement in any given situation, whether the situation that surrounds us, be good or painful. we know that we as humans do suffer pain and that pain is evident in the lives of many people, this includes the ones that follow Jesus Christ and are born of the Spirit, The question is how we can find complete Joy, in any given area of our lives, whether it be a grand experience or a painful experience. We know that when Jesus was on the cross that he, no doubt, felt the pain of the sins of the world in his flesh. Can we say that he did not feel any pain, after all he was Very God in the flesh? How can God feel pain? There is no sickness in the Father, and he does not allow pain and suffering to dwell where he exists, Rev. 21:4 (KJV) And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. The bible here relates to the fact that the saints of God does have and has had pain and sorrow and have faced death. The above verse or passage states that the Jou of the Lord is our strength. This being true, why do we not have the Jou of the Lord continuously in our lives. How can we laugh and make a joyful noise to the lord when we are being tormented with pain and suffering and when death takes one of our loved ones from us. It seems that the word of God makes a statement that is sometime difficult, or, nearly impossible to experience, especially in the heat of the sorrow and pain. Can the hearing of the Word, which is being preached, or the singing of a gospel song take all the pain away? Is it really to have Joy in all situations, no matter how they appear? If we are to have the strength to overcome the trials and the pain and suffering that we are experiencing, we need, in fact, to come to reality and face the issue, and that issue is that we do feel the pain when pain has come to our fleshly bodies. Adam and Eve, when in the Garden of Eden, had no pain or sorrows until they took care of the forbidden fruit. Why would God put in front of a fruit that he did not want his creation of mankind, to partake of? This question has probably been asked over and over in the minds of the human race for centuries. Can we have Joy, even when we know that we are, not only having, but even when we can see the event unfold that will certainly bring sorrow and pain. Who is responsible for the events that unfold, that affect our lives, whether it be good or bad? Can we argue the point that God should not have created both good and evil? Genesis 2:9 (KJV) And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Here we can see that the Lord, out of the ground, made the lord God, To Grow, every tree that is pleasant to the sight....notice that he acclaims for certain that these trees here that is to grow, is, pleasant to the Sight. Could this be the Joy that we are discussing? Is it here that we find the source of our strength? We can see that these trees are good for food. Can we, through knowledge, know that food that is pleasant to the eyes, is also good for food? Yes, he is saying that trees that is pleasant to the eyes is good for food. But notice there in the creation is another Tree, and that tree, is like a backup tree, and what i mean is. that in case something goes wrong, that the lord had a backup plan ready and available. I just backed up these writings on the hard disc of my computer and the reason I did back it up, was that, the hard drive could crash and all the information that I have typed could be destroyed, I also back the information onto a floppy disk, just in case that the computer hard drive does crash, This make sense to not only be able to have it in my reach on the computer, but in case of failure that i can retrieve the information from another source, Here we can clearly see that God did everything right and everything that he created was good. Genesis 1:31 (KJV) And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. So, the question is, that if everything that God made was good, where did the Pain and suffering come from? I think we all can relate to the fact that the hard drive did crash, and God lost a lot of information at that time, but remember that i said on the computer that i also back up onto a floppy disc. This is the point that I want to emphasize strongly, God had a plan and he backed it up in more ways than we can Imagine, You might say that he is the Hard Drive and we can rest assured that His Hard Drive cannot ever Crash and he don’t have to worry about the power going off like we do, and as I said before that after writing for two and half hours, that the electricity went off and all the information that i had in memory in the computer had not been backed up and I suffered the loss of all that i had typed in the two and half hours. We are touching on an issue here that is going to benefit each of us. What we need to do is not just see what is pleasant to the Eyes and notice that we are commanded not to judge according to the outward appearance. John 7:24 (KJV) Judge not according to the appearance but judge righteous judgment. We are like Eve there in the Garden, and In fact we face the same situation and choice that she faced, We can see with our eyes and see those things that we are sure that will be good for us and those around us, yet, we fail to realize that there in all those choices and i all of our visions of choices, there stands the Tree Of Life. Had Eve and Adam went into the Middle of the Garden, they did have total access to the Joy about which we are talking. That Joy would have been their strength to overcome the Beast that appeared to Eve and by taking of the fruit of the tree of life, they would have then been endowed with the power of the Holy Ghost to be able to cause the Subtle Beast that approached to be driven completely out of the Garden and would not have felt pain, sorrow, and death. When they looked with their eyes, you have to understand that they see just as you and I see, they saw the things that looked good and found pleasure in what they saw. Does this that Adam and Eve did, ring a bell with you and I today? What do we look for in this environment? What are we seeing with our Eyes? and do we still make the same mistakes that Eve did? Can it be that we have in the middle of our environment a Tree Of Live standing there and that we have the same access to that tree of life. I am certain that Jesus was that Tree Of Life, which was in the Middle of the Paradise, and that Same Tree of Life is still in the Middle of Paradise, and like Jesus told the thief on the cross: Luke 23:43 (KJV) And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. We can see here that the Paradise that Adam and Eve did not go away and cease to exist. Here, Jesus was confirming the words of that in Genesis. Paradise is the Joy of the lord and I am Convinced that Jesus was telling the on there that believed on him, he was saying that you have this day found the tree of Life that has been in paradise and you have just taken of that tree and you have not made the mistake of that which Adam and Eve made and by you doing so, you have taken hold of eternal life and now enter into the Joys of the Lord and cease from all the pain and suffering that we are experiencing. Jesus said: Rev. 2:7 (KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. Can, you the reader, understand that Paradise does exist, and to make known to you what exactly that paradise is, we, would have to go to the upper room and see what exactly took place after the resurrection of Christ, and see what was fulfilled and just what this means to the one that wants Joy in their lives, and who wants strength in their lives. Listen to what it Says. Acts 2:2 (KJV) And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. Yes here we have one hundred twenty hungry souls that have with their eyes, have been looking at the trees that have looked good to the eyes in everyday life and have found that while it was good for food and have sustained them somewhat, yet, those things has not been able to keep them from making choices that has caused pain and suffering to come, not only on them, but has come on mankind for centuries. The recorded word and warnings has been penned and proclaimed ever since that of the Fall of mankind. Mankind has in one sense failed miserably. Everything these one hundred twenty represents is that man cannot and does not have the ability to make the pain and suffering go away. We cannot have the pain and suffering go away by the action of anyone or anything except that we are to go to the one that was there in the middle of the Garden and look and not only look but must be partakers of that fruit that has in itself the remedy to cure all pain and even shut out the pain of death and will with the authority of that fruit, take authority over the grave, where this tabernacle that has been stained with pain and suffering and which the Sentence of Death has been placed, not only on our lives, but on everyone that has come into this world ever since that of Cain. Yes, this Joy that i am speaking of that the thief experienced is that same Joy that came down in the upper room and sat upon each of them, we can see that that Joy took the form of a dove, and we know that the dove is the most Humble of all of the Fouls and symbolizes total peace, When King Solom dedicated the temple there were such Joy that the Priest were not able to minister; 1 Kings 8:10-11 (KJV) And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the Lord, [11] So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of the Lord. We are familiar with the proclamation that Peter made; Peter said that this is that which was spoken of by Joel the Prophet; Acts 2:16 (KJV) But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; Not only did Joel refer to this day of Pentecost, but There were also many more references or should we say, Prophesies that were proclaimed. The one thing that I want you the reader to understand that these Priests could not stand to minister when God’s Glory came down into the mist of the congregation, Notice that, right the Opposite happened on the day of Pentecost. Instead of not being able to minister, here we see that they were empowered to be able to stand and minister. Not only those Disciples were made to stand boldly and proclaim the Gospel with the Anointing, but all the others were also empowered with the Anointing and as the Spirit Gave Utterance, they began to speak in every langue of those of other nations that had come to that area. The tongue that had been used to set the course of Hell on fire now had a new message to those of the world. Of course, they were doubters and those who never really did get into the act was not called to the upper room to receive the experience of the Joy that was coming from on High. but as the prophet said when they finished the Walls. Neh. 8:10 (KJV) Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength. There was enough in this experience to send to those for whom nothing is prepared. 2 Chron. 5:14 (KJV) So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God. 2 Chron. 7:1 (KJV) Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the house. Ezekiel was allowed to enter into the inner court, this inner court was the hearts of mankind, where the temple of God is and, as Christ died and shed his blood, this was the offering that taketh away the sins of the world, this was the only one that could give Joy to the believer, and Ezekiel went into, through visions, into the heart of God, and Saw Jesus Christ, the High Priest ministering as he was proclaiming the express image of the Father, Ezekiel, was, in essence, taken through visions to the Garden of Eden and was shown what was there all the time, This was there for Adam and Eve, sadly they choose to only take that which is what the eyes, not the spiritual eyes, wanted to see. and found, like a lot of us today, things look pleasant to look on. We can see here that, Satan will even mix the good with the evil, in order to trap us and draw us away, after all we are like Eve and Adam, we are drawn away by our own lust and temptations. James 1:14 (KJV) But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. It states that every man is tempted. When he is drawn away Can we say that as most say, That the devil made me do it and that I am tempted all day long, Why are we tempted all the time, In this passage of the scripture. we are tempted when we are drawn away, not because of the evil that is in front of us, but we took of the fruit just like Eve did and then she gave it to her husband, she convinced him to eat with her. Now that was a simple effort on her part; or was it? let us look and see what might have taken place. We know that she must have been the beauty of all beauty, She was more beautiful that Satan was, and he was the most adorned Angle among the Host of Angles. Ezekiel 31:18 (KJV) To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord God. He is referring to the flesh, and this was what Adam and Eve was there in the Garden of Eden. Adam was taken from the Earth and Eve was taken from Adam, so each of them was of the Earth. As the Earth was corrupted by Satan and caused Darkness to come upon the face of the deep, he also caused the Earth to be void. God picked up a handful of Dust and breathed the breath of live into Adam and he became a living Soul and God planted a Garden, Now when God plants a seed the seed grows and becomes of value. As seed that is planted by God here in this world, both in the Earth and in the hearts of mankind, that seed becomes an eternal soul only if that seed goes into good soil and by going into good soil, and by the tender care of the Holy Ghost, it can be a strong refuge to all those that come to take part of the shade or the Glory that is cast from the life of that individual. God gave Glory to the nation of Israel and clothed them, took care, and delivered them through many battles and victory always was there for the asking. Ezekiel 43:5 (KJV) So, the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house. Ezekiel 44:4 (KJV) Then brought he me the way of the north gate before the house: and I looked, and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord: and I fell upon my face. I believe here is the forthcoming prophecy of the Holy Ghost being poured out on the church at the day of Pentecost. Here is Glory, and we can see Joy, which is the strength of the believer. Are we looking at the pleasant fruit, the easy way, or the way that we think in ourselves is the way that we should take? Lot looked on the Green Valleys and everywhere it was watered, and Lot found himself right smack dab in the middle of temptations, No one was to blame, but Lot himself, and if you are enticed by what you see with your eyes and like the fruit that you can see with those eyes that are in your forehead, then you will find that like all of us we are victims of what the following verse is saying, James 1:14 (KJV) But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. When you are drawn away by your own lusts and desires and enticed, then you are tempted. We need to put the horse in front of the wagon. We need to hold ourselves accountable to the things that we ourselves decide to lust for. Strongs makes it clear that what is taking place. Strongs give us insight to what happened in the Garden of Eden. ( »Strong's Help deleazo, Greek 1185, Strong's deleazo, del-eh-ad'-zo; from the base of Greek 1388 (dolos); to entrap, i.e. (figurative) delude :- allure, beguile, entice. have been enticed to take the fruit by your choice, and »Strong's Help dolos, Greek 1388, Strong's dolos, dol'-os; from an obsolete primary dello (probably meaning to decoy; compare Greek 1185 (deleazo)); a trick (bait), i.e. (figurative) wile :- craft, deceit, guile, subtilty.) Eve said herself, that Satan beguiled her. Genesis 3:13 (KJV) And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat. She did admit that she did, she made the choice to yield to the temptation. After she yielded to the temptation, she found satisfaction in the thing that she consented to. What was that fruit? I am convinced that it was something more than an apple tree. We can look at what the bible says about consenting to that when we are tempted. We can see here in the next verse written to the church at Corinth that the mind is what Satan is after, if Satan can corrupt the mind, he can defile everyone and everything around us. 2 Cor. 11:3 (KJV) But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. When your minds are corrupted, or should we say, set upon the things that are not of God, how does that effect our wellbeing and how does that affect us in our relation to Christ? Ezekiel 24:25 (KJV) Also, thou son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their minds, their sons, and their daughters, If that which you Glory in this life is taken from you, Your sons, and daughters, this is, in this life, outside of God himself, the greatest Joy and Strength that a parent can have. When we lose these, as Job did, when he was tried and allowed to come and take everything away from Job, except his life, We can see the results of the Pain and suffering that Job endured, and on top of all the misery, her came to him, those friends, or so called, friends and begin to tell him all of his faults. Job began to open his mouth and in bitterness he cursed the day that he was born and said that it would be better if he had been; still born. His children, no doubt had disregarded the instructions that Job, their father, had taught them, and since that Job had gotten wealth and much wealth from God, the children were partying and drinking and whoring around, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and Job had made intercessions for them even while they were doing the lewd acts, and even prayed that they might not sin, before that they did sin. In all of this Satan came not to Job at this instant. Satan was roaming around through the earth and God asked him if he had considered his servant Job. Satan said to God. Job 1:10 (KJV) Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. Here we can see the reality of the pain and suffering that is imposed upon us at times. In this same experience, we can, see the end results of that of how God in his plan, can and will defeat Satan in his efforts to distort the truth and to cause harm to those that believe and follow the Lord. We may not have the same situation take place in our lives, but we do have the same fruit on tree’s that are in front of us. and when we look at the fruit, we can easily be beguiled and through subtlety find ourselves corrupted and that our minds will far from the real Joy that God wants us to have. When you look long enough and see that the thing that you are lusting after is pleasant to your eyes, then, bam, you are tempted. then and only then are you tempted, This bring up an issue that goes to the center of the focal point that where I asked the Question, whether we can have Joy in any given situation, and the answer is simply, Yes we can have Joy, because like Stephen, we can look steadfastly toward heaven, that is if we are filled with the Holy Ghost and wisdom. Stephen looked upward and not on the trees that looked good to the average eye, therefore he had the Joy and by having this Joy, he had the strength to lay down his life, just as Jesus had power to lay down his life for you and I, Stephen laid down his life for the cause and the promotion of the existence of the Tree in the middle of the garden. When we keep our eyes in the middle of the Garden and head that way, we will find that that fruit is eternal and not like the fruit that we eat of this world. As I have said, Satan attacks the mind, and this is accomplished through the lust that we bring upon ourselves as we look with our eyes to those things that seem to be exciting or pleasurable. Satan cannot tempt you at all if your mind is on the Lord continually. Ezekiel 36:5 (KJV) Therefore, thus saith the Lord God; Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the heathen, and against all Idumea, which have appointed my land into their possession with the joy of all their heart, with despiteful minds, to cast it out for a prey. As the heathen that constantly wanted to have that which God had given to his people and would go to any extreme to gain or steal those things of God, they wanted it for themselves and for their own desires. These can and will take a prey like a bird of prey, the sore high and sweep down on those that they can devour and tear them to pieces and fill themselves with the fat and after the take that by deceit then they set themselves up and boast of how righteous they are and all the time the fire of the Lord is silently waiting and is stirred up in Gods jealousy and God said that he will and does come at a hour when they think not and then their portions are of that of a hypocrite. Matthew 24:51 (KJV) And shall cut him asunder and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Titus 1:15 (KJV) Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled, and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. »Strong's Help suneidesis, Greek 4893, Strong's suneidesis, soon-i'-day-sis; from a prolonged form of Greek 4894 (suneido); co-perception, i.e., moral consciousness :- conscience. »Strong's Help suneido, Greek 4894, Strong's suneido, soon-i'-do; from Greek 4862 (sun) and Greek 1492 (eido); to see completely; used (like its primary) only in two past tenses, respectively meaning to understand or become aware, and to be conscious or (clandestinely) informed of :- consider, know, be privy, beware of. »Strong's Help eido, Greek 1492, Strong's eido, i'-do; a primary verb; used only in certain past tenses, the others being borrowed from the equivalent Greek 3700 (optanomai) and Greek 3708 (horao); properly to see (literal or figurative); by implication (in the perf. only) to know :- be aware, behold, x can (+ not tell), consider, (have) know (-ledge), look (on), perceive, see, be sure, tell, understand, wish, wot. Compare Greek 3700 (optanomai). »Strong's Help optanomai, Greek 3700, Strong's optanomai, op-tan'-om-ahee; a (middle) prolonged form of the primary (middle) optomai, op'-tom-ahee; which is used for it in certain tenses; and both as alternate of Greek 3708 (horao); to gaze (i.e. with wide-open eyes, as at something remarkable; and thus differing from Greek 991 (blepo), which denotes simply voluntary observation; and from Greek 1492 (eido), which expresses merely mechanical, passive or casual vision; while Greek 2300 (theaomai), and still more emphatically its intensive Greek 2334 (theoreo), signifies an earnest but more continued inspection; and Greek 4648 (skopeo) a watching from a distance) :- appear, look, see, shew self. »Strong's Help skopeo, Greek 4648, Strong's skopeo, skop-eh'-o; from Greek 4649 (skopos); to take aim at (spy), i.e. (figurative) regard :- consider, take heed, look at (on), mark. Compare Greek 3700 (optanomai). we can also sear our conscience. Hebrews 9:14 (KJV) How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? One could easly understand what is meant by the word depression, which means that we are in a state of hopelessness, in despair. What brings this on is the fact that we allow Satan, through the experiences of this life, to corrupt our way of thinking and we become accustomed to his perilous ways. Instead of saying that I had rather fight than switch, we had given in and said that i would rather suffer than to have to fight. We learn to cope in any given situation and accept the consequences. Water, when it begins to rain does not come down in, most of the time, in buckets full, it comes in a steady rain and when it begins to fall, if the ground is loosened and eroded it will begin with ease to take the loose soil and wash it away. Then we can see that what is left is not good to plant a seed into and can never be restored to the original state. This is what happens to a lot of us. Little by little Satan begins to wash away our minds and causes us to be like the substance after the soil is washed away. What we see then brings depression and we think of what we had and no longer have it. Most of the time there is a remedy to the fact that like the soil conservation people, they want us to not be careless and to keep the soil from eroding away. God wants to equip you with the Holy Ghost and through the Holy Ghost, will seal you until the day of redemption. Ephes. 1:13 (KJV) In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Notice it says that in whom ye trusted, after that you heard, and after ye took the advice that was sent from heaven. Now after that you made up your mind to believe and to call on Jesus and ask him into your life, you have the promise that was spoken of by Joel the Prophet, and that promise was there on the day of Pentecost and it is to all of those that will call on Jesus and who will allow the Holy Ghost to have an open mind to come into your heart. the Holy Ghost is what purifies and filters out those unwanted devices that Satan has brought into this world. You mind, when in sin, and when you were away from God, had no knowledge of that which God has in store to those that love him, who walk not after the flesh, but who walk after the spirit. To sum up this day of typing and that which I have been given, This has come to the mind of this writer, not by my own, but has been given by the Holy Ghost and I too can and will have the strength to endure through the Joy of the Lord. that Joy is the Holy Ghost and God wants me to be with him in Glory and by the help of God and the Holy Ghost I will say, “I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” This is an eternal matter and why should we the children of God let Satan divert us from the plan of God that was place in Jesus Christ before the world begin. I thank God for his son Jesus Christ, and I extol him and lift his name above all other names. He is worthy to be praised and to have the Honor of all the people and the all the things that are and ever will exist. We want to deal with Simplicity today. I believe that When Eve was confronted by the Serpent that the serpent was able to take away the simplicity of Eve’s mind. For this reason, I want to let the reader read what Paul had to say to the ones that had gotten away from the simplicity of Jesus Christ. We find that as Paul had been taught under teaching of Gamaiel, This teacher was noted for his wisdom, especially the Law. we can see the effect that the teaching had on individuals that came into his classroom. With the knowledge that Paul was able to obtain by this Teacher, by the way, this teacher was recognized by those of his time as one that could take an individual and equip that individual to be accepted through the community and maybe throughout the world. It is the same today as it was then, we have ourselves in the world those institutions, such as, Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, the which you must have or be an individual that has achieved a very high level of degree of intelligence in order to attend those institutions. In other words, one must be really smart and be able to conform to the things of this life. Another way is to say, You must know someone and have someone promote or recommend you for that which is accounted to be the accepted way for an individual to achieve the results that would be recognized by the society that we live in. Paul had climbed that ladder to success in the Law and had armed him with the armor of that which had been proven over and over in the ways of those that had gained their superiority. This was a successful effort in the eyes and seemed to be the right way for an individual to be able to achieve such a goal. What we need to realize that as the bible said that the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. 1 Cor. 3:19 (KJV) For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. We should realize that the wisdom of this word was given to Satan to Glorify him and to beatify him and God gave him all of his wisdom and he through his Subtilty, corrupted, no the wisdom, but took that wisdom and used it to gain Superiority over the other one third of the Angles, in doing so, he became the judge and jury, as they say. What he said was the law, the trouble he himself became a law of his own self-control. Paul spoke these words...2 Cor. 11:3 (KJV) But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. Eve had been corrupted through Subtility, and the mind was the target and the mind of those that Paul was talking to had been corrupted by Satan, We must understand that Satan has a messenger, and Paul dealt with that in his teachings and read what he had to say about that...2 Cor. 12:7 (KJV) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. We can read these words and see that with the messenger of Satan was left to buffet at us for a very simple reason, that is, to keep us from exalting ourselves to where that God will not have a relationship with us. Most people think of Christians as simple people and will make derogatory remarks to the effect, and I have to admit that it offended me at first, now i believe that this can and is a complement. When someone is saying that they are, in essence saying that you are a born again Christian and in living for Christ is not accepted by those that have exalted themselves to the level of that which is approved by society. As Christians, we are counted as the filth of the world, Not counted that way by God, but counted that way by those who think that they. whatever they are, as Paul said makes no difference to Paul... Galatians 2:6 (KJV) But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me: Satan was able to add to Adam and Eve, the penalty of sin, and we know that that penalty was death, not only to them, but to all mankind. Remember that he, Satan stood in front of Eve and begin to as the question...”has God said”...Genesis 3:1 (KJV) Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? The approach was that he recognized God, and he knew where he stood, and he did not tell her that there was no God. Satan worked on the mind that God had given to Eve, and he was very skillful in his tactics, which is why it was noted as Subtility. Subtlety means to be cunning and crafty. Ther are individuals that are so cunning that they can look you in the eye and take you for a ride and to the cleaners, as the saying goes. The thing that the Lord wants us to realize is that Satan works on the Mind. When Satan corrupts your mind, then he has corrupted you altogether. That is why we are to have the mind of Christ. 1 Cor. 2:16 (KJV) For whom hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. We have the mind of Christ it we walk after the Spirit, and not of the flesh. Romans 8:1 (KJV) There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:4 (KJV) That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. The simplicity of being a Christian is to know nothing except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 1 Cor. 2:2 (KJV) For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. The more we learn of the world’s wisdom, if we are not careful, we will find ourselves being self-dependent and not relying on Jesus Christ. This is to say just because we go to college or any school that it is detrimental to God and that God would not approve of you and I getting a higher education, it is what we do with that education, which makes the anvil fall on us. God used Paul’s credentials, him being a member of the San Hadrian court, and took advantage of the ability of that Paul had been a Roman Citizen. God was able to take Paul and us his education to witness to the Romans and to stand in front of Caesar. That would be like us being able to stand in front of the President and make a proclamation that Jesus is Lord of all the earth and have him to recognize us as an individual that had been learned at Harvard or Yale. Then when we speak, the president would pay attention and listen. When Satan took Jesus up into a high mountain and showed him All the Kingdoms of the world, we are not able to understand how he did this. Satan could have been in the Spirit of the World and Jesus being God, and able through the Spirit of God went up, side by side with Satan and somehow Satan had the ability to bring upon the screen of time the long-practiced achievements that he had, and the through the principalities and powers, he was able to show Jesus all of the Kingdoms of the World. I am positive or I feel that I can say that the Kingdoms of the world that he showed to Christ was the kingdoms that he had implemented into the hearts of men and women. Here we can see, as Genesis stated that the earth void and darkness was upon the face of the deep. Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. We know that Satan when he is in control, will, corrupt everyone and everyone. This is the nature and he here with Jesus was up as high as he could exalt himself and Jesus being God in the Flesh, he being Higher that Satan could ever be, just let Satan show him all these things and then Jesus had an answer for him. Can you imagine the gall that it too for Satan to attempt to bring down the creator to his level. I would have to Say to those that think that Satan is in control, You are as Stupid as Satan was here. For the life of me, it is hard to imagine that Jesus would not just back hand him right there and slap him all the way into Hell. But we must realize that God had planned to have his house full of children and had he done that there you and I would not be reading this article. I want to make it perfectly clear to you the reader, that Jesus is the plan of God and in that Plan is life to everyone that will take of it and follow it unto the end. 1 Peter 1:13 (KJV) Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; I am just about to shout and praise God and to think that we can, through ourselves solve the problems that come our way is to be like Satan standing in front of Jesus Christ here in this exceedingly high mountain and think that he can cause Jesus to turn from the plan that he was and is for his saints and to let that low life devil that has persecuted the saints and robbed God of Souls that have given into his aggression, At this point I must say that these Muslims that believe that they can enter into a life of peace through another way, and to those that have and do deny the Deity of Jesus Christ is to say that you will Stand in front of Jesus just Satan did, and you will be resurrected up to an exceeding high Throne and stand before the God that created you and I and there you will, and I say, you will bow before him and recognize that he is Lord of lord and King of Kings, The sad part is that if you have serve another God, other than Jesus Christ, you will hear him say to you....Matthew 25:41 (KJV) Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: You can see that in the Plan of God there is a place Prepared for Satan and Satan is aware of the place an Satan knows that it he can keep us from serving and testifying to others that God will not fill up his house with his children and Satan believes and knows that God has a plan and that Plan is Jesus Christ that all things exists and by him all things were created and for him and Satan is on the list to complete Gods plan and when he crucified Jesus and thought he was getting rid of the Heir, he was fulfilling the Plan of God right down to the letter. That is why that the word says that...1 Cor. 10:13 (KJV) There hath no temptation taken you, but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. Why should we bear it? Why should we have to go through the things that come to us? Psalm 91:10 (KJV) There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. With God on our side, how can we lose the battle? Have you fought a good fight? have you kept the faith? If you are on the battlefield and have the sword of the spirit and are marching with a shout and see the enemy on every side, just look through the anointing and see the armies of God encamped around on the mountains of faith. Let your eyes be anointed with the eye salve of the Holy Ghost and you will like the servant of Elisha seen the armies of God and they are more that the troubles that you are experiencing. Rev. 3:18 (KJV) I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see. 2 Kings 6:15-17 (KJV) And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do? [16] And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. [17] And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha. Jesus said to Peter...Luke 22:31-32 (KJV) And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: [32] But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. No matter how many arrows that Satan throws our way, we can rest assured that the Armies of God are Greater and that the one that Prayed for Peter, that he not be sifted like wheat, That one is on the Right Hand of The Throne of God and is making intercessions for us and does not rest day and night, tor there is no darkness there, there if no sin there, there is no Satan and his Angles there, Jesus wiped the slate clean for us and took hold of Satan and cast him down to the Earth and his wrath is great toward the saints of God because of the Fall that he has received, and I say to you, rest a little while and it will all be over, Rev. 12:12 (KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. But we are not citizens of this world if we are washed in the blood of the Lamb, and we shall behold the one that Saved and redeemed us from these troubles. Rev. 21:24 (KJV) And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. End December 9, 2002 I want to emphasize the fact that when we are dealing with that of the Spirit and those existences that deal with revelations, we must realize that Spiritual things does not have a beginning or an end, Jesus said that he is the beginning and the end, Rev. 22:13 (KJV) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning, and the end, the first and the last. When we come to the realization that what is in existence now has already been, Eccles. 3:15 (KJV) That which hath been; is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requires that which be past. Another passage to attest to this fact is where Jesus said that he beheld Satan fall from Heaven as Lightening. Luke 10:18 (KJV) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. We also can from the scriptures see that God knows and sees the end from the beginning. Isaiah 46:10 (KJV) Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Now to make the reader understand what these words that are spoken are this, Jesus is the beginning and everything that exists, exist in Jesus Christ and that all things that were was in Jesus before it ever come into existence in this world, and even the world was not in existence until it was in Jesus Christ, Genesis 2:5 (KJV) And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. Until we realize that we ourselves existed in Jesus Christ before the world ever in existence, else, we are limiting God to an existing time and not as eternal. Many have asked the question... “Where did God come from?” That would be like asking your mother, “Where did the Love that you have for me, come from. God is Love and as I have said in these pages, no one can describe love and cannot draw a picture of Love. That is why no one had seen God at any time except Jesus Christ. 1 Tim. 6:16 (KJV) Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. When we were created in the Image of God, we were created in Jesus Christ, who was the express image of The Father. Hebrews 1:3 (KJV) Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Adam himself, has not beheld the Father, Adam dwelt in the presence of God in his Love and heard the voice in the Garden in the cool of the Day. Love was displayed in the Garden in the Form that Adam and Eve had and to say that when Adam and Eve was looked upon that this is what God looked like, would in a sense be right, but at the same time, would be like a son or daughter that looks like the father or mother and would be a copy of the parent, yet it would not be a clone of that individual, they would be an existence of the Father or mother. They would display the characteristics of the father or mother, yet they are not the Father or Mother. God displayed himself in Adam and Eve and the creation, yet he choose to remain immortal and did not allow anyone to see him, not even Adam and Eve saw him. Jesus who was conceived of the Holy Ghost came into this flesh to reveal the true existence of the Father and yet when we they looked upon his fleshly body, they were not seeing the Father with their fleshly eyes, the only part of the Father that he represented that be beheld and seen is through Faith only and not of the eyes that we look through that we see with in our everyday lives. Jesus said that when we see him, we see the Father, John 6:46 (KJV) Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he, which is of God, he hath seen the Father. John 14:9 (KJV) Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? Jesus was not asking them to look at the body of flesh that he had at that time, he was asking them to see through faith where he had come out of, and he had come from the father and the Father was in him. This is why that Paul made it clear that we know Christ no more after the flesh. 2 Cor. 5:16 (KJV) Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. What Jesus was saying to those that were there in his presence was, that God the Father was there and that God the Father was the existence of each of those and in order for them to know the Father, they would not see him, looking on the outward man, or to say the flesh, they would only know the Father by the Love that was standing in their presence. To us today, we look at the flesh and many times we are disappointed by the actions of the flesh, and yet when we are looking for some great individual to trust in, we only find that that individual will leave us disappointed many times, The real way to know God the Father is what Jesus was saying to those that they must love one another as the father loved the world. Anything that was short of loving one another is not sufficient to take us into the presence of the Father, God the Father does not dwell in any environment other that Love, God will not be with you and I when we have division and confusion. This is why the Spirit does not come into the presence of the Church or the home, where there is strife and confusion, you will not find a light burning. After all, if you light a light in the darkness, the darkness cannot abide there. This is the key to the unity of the Church. We are to love our Enemy’s. God doesn’t want you to allow the Enemy to come and sit down with you and shove his corruption in your face and you to sit there and let him defile you and everyone else around you, God wants you to allow God to create an existence in your life that will be the love of God and in doing so the enemy that is there will be extracted or driven out of that individual, We are to resist the Devil. James 4:7 (KJV) Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. By summiting yourself to God, you are summiting to Love rather than; what is and wants to do in your mist. Remember what Paul said: Ephes. 6:12 (KJV) For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. As we cannot see the Father through the flesh, we cannot see the Devil through the flesh. The flesh is just a tabernacle for both God and Satan to occupy. As Jesus wanted us to Love one another, we must have love one to another in order to overcome the evil that exists in the flesh. In our own bodies, as Paul said, dwelleth no good thing. Romans 7:18 (KJV) For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. This is the reason that everything was created in Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ was and is everything that the Father ever was and ever shall be. The father cannot allow love to be taken into the shape of mortal flesh, then God himself would have to exist in carnality and God the Father is immortal and only dwells in the light. That light is Love and without Love, God cannot and will not dwell in any given situation or anyone that has not the Love of the Father. The Love, or the Light of the Father was and is and shall be forever and as Jesus Christ is eternal the Love of The Father is Eternal and nothing can separate us from the love that is in the Father, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:1 (KJV) There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:4 (KJV) That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. The righteousness of the Law is not of ordinances or of traditions, the righteousness is of that of the Promise, not of works, If you think that you have found favor through works, you are sadly mistaken, the only way that you found favor in God the Father is not of your own righteousness, but that Jesus, who is the righteousness of God the Father, and who came and gave himself a ransom for all, he, and he only is the righteousness of each of us. Like the above verse stated, there is no condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus and those who walk not after the flesh. When we look to the flesh, we in essence, sin against ourselves and we also sin against God. If Jesus is not to be known after the flesh anymore, then where do we get the ideal that we can please the father by the deeds of the flesh. Flesh cannot and will not be justified. Galatians 2:16 (KJV) Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Jesus came to fulfil the Law. Romans 10:4 (KJV) For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believeth. The end of the Law is what Malachia declared. The end of the Law is total separation from the Promises that is in the Law. The law could not fulfill the righteousness of God. The law only pointed man to Calvery, to where the righteousness that the Law spoke about became a reality for those that believed in the Promises of the Law and those that thought that the Law could make them perfect, through ordinances and washing of the hands, even those that thought that tithing could and can make them righteousness are sadly mistaken and cannot see what message the Law had. When mercy came at the Cross. Mercy rejoiced against judgment. No one can determine the end of mercy, Jesus himself said that while he was in the flesh, he would and could not reveal the end of mercy, Mercy has no end. But we can remember that Mercy in itself, Which is God, which is Love. does not have a beginning or end. That would be saying that Jesus Christ had a beginning and an end. Love is eternal and exists eternally. It is infinite and can and does create existence. By it, when it is in our lives, the worst of the worst is changed into a living soul. Take a sinner that has wandered far from God and has done the utmost of evil deeds, when that soul finds and realizes that he is loved and that his evil has not gotten him anywhere except to take him or her to the lowest state, then when he or she looks toward and finds Gods love in an earthly individual, that love radiates into the darkness of that individual and as the light shines upon the darkness, that individual will like most plants of this earth, will sprout upward and begin to have hope. When enough light is shown that soul will find that instead of bringing forth evil seed and corruption, that soul will become the residence of the new hope and that Gods love will take it is abode in that soul and by this the Devil and his spirit is driven out. What is that Love? As Jesus Christ came to fulfill the Promises of the words of the Law. Remember that the Law was written by the finger of God. That Finger of God that wrote the Ten commandants on the Stones of the Mountain, is the Son of The Living God and he is the Finger of God and has not only written the words in the Stones of the mountains, but has this day written those promises to those who believe and has written them as a new Law of Mercy, in the hearts of those that believe and walk after the Spirit. Jesus had to leave the earthly tabernacle of his flesh. It was not possible for him to stay in the flesh. If he did remain in the flesh. He would have to set up the Kingdom here and would have to tolerate Satan and his fallen Angles, who would, as in the past, took the kingdom by force. Matthew 11:12 (KJV) And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. Since God required the shedding of blood from the time of Able up until the appearance of John the baptist, and this shedding of the animals blood could not make the corners to perfect, there must be that which is perfect and which was not of the earth, to be offered for the sins of those that would come to God. Jesus was that which was from Heaven, This Blood came to this earth by the Spirit of the Holy Ghost and became the living sacrifice that would take the sins from mankind and cast them away into the sea of forgetfulness, never to be remembered anymore, the only thing that was needed to make this sure was that Jesus himself to give his life on the Cross and then to be exalted up to the Throne of God and sit there side by side on the Throne of Love and there he could reach into the Love of that which makes the Throne Majesty. and take of that love, send it back to this sin torn world, not to conceive a supreme sacrifice, but to come and bring the Majesty of The Throne into the hearts of those that would accept the Savior and repent of their sins and turn away and follow Jesus Christ, At that, comes the Holy Ghost to those and when they accept the Holy Ghost into their lives, All things become new and old things Pass Away. You and I are not taken out of this flesh, yet we are given a new man that lives inside us, and that new man cannot sin and thereby we are sealed unto the day of redemption. As long as you and I walk after the new man and follow the leading of the Holy Ghost, we can rest assured that when Jesus comes to take his church and this mortal then will put on immortality and then we shall be known as he is known. 1 John 3:2 (KJV) Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. Now we can see that as he is so shall we be. We are not yet delivered from this flesh, yet we can through the Spirit mortify the deeds of the flesh. Romans 9:8 (KJV) That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. Romans 8:13 (KJV) For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Col. 3:5 (KJV) Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: When we think about the era before that of Adam and Eve, many questions are unanswered and the writer, which most acclaim to Moses as the writer, we do not exactly know how that Moses got his information, yet we know that Moses was a prophet, and that God revealed the hidden things of God to those that sought for the truth. Moses, like Daniel and John the revelator were not allowed to write all the facts concerning Jesus Christ, and the reason was, as I have said, that if the whole picture were revealed, Satan would not have crucified the Lord. 1 Cor. 2:8 (KJV) Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. I am fairly sure that God did not make known all of his knowledge and his plan for to allow Satan to know what and when God’s plan would be initiated, Satan would have gone in another direction as the verse stated. To go back to Creation, I want to place some injector to the reader to the things that has come to my mind, or to my spirit. We all know that the things of God are revealed to those that are seeking the deep hidden things of God. Psalm 36:6 (KJV) Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preserves man and beast. God not only preserves the Deep things, but he also preserves man himself, this would include that of man knowing too much, which man could bring harm to himself and mankind. We can see what the Nuclear invention could do for mankind and the world, and it is environment. It is said that the United States contains enough Nuclear warheads to destroy the world ten times over. This does not include Russia and all the other Nations that has Nuclear Weapons. Going back to before Adam and Eve’s era, we read where the earth was in its creation, we find that it was void and darkness was upon the face of the Deep. Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. When Abram had offered a sacrifice to God, and while he waited, he fell into a deep sleep. Genesis 15:12 (KJV) And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him. God was revealing that the children of Israel were to be under bondage in Egypt for Four Hundred Years. Also, this nation that would hold bondage on the Children of Israel would be judged. This was foretold long before Moses was born. I would be safe in saying that these things were passed on to the generations to come, that God had spoken to Father Abraham and these things were either printed or revealed by the Spirit of God. As I look back to the time or should I say the era of creation, certain things causes me to wonder as to what took place at that era. Scientist has found evidence to the fact that there were an Ice Age. and they have found evidence that prehistoric animals such as the Dinosaurs did exist at some era of time or before time ever came into existence. Let us do some filling in of the blanks, Let us just say that God in the beginning, and as I have and the bible states that Jesus Christ is the beginning, we try to analyze just what did exist during the age of the prehistoric animals. We can see in the records of the Genesis, that God made male, and female and he referred to them. not one man, but more than one. Genesis 1:26-28 (KJV) And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. [27] So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. [28] And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Now the Earth was Void and darkness was upon the face of the Deep. Why would the writer write this and why was the Earth Void.? Could we say that God in his Majesty made something that was Void? I cannot imagine that anything God ever created that it was not good, especially at the time he created it. Since he created everything in Jesus Christ, and before the it was in the world it was created. Genesis 2:5 (KJV) And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground. Some action had been experienced to cause the Earth to become Void, and to cause Darkness to come upon the Deep. This is where I believe that God has revealed to me what did take place, or in part, what happened. God could have had more than one Adam since he referred to more than on individual in the creation. What if God had created the Heavens and the Earth and then he created male and female before that of Adam and let them inhabit the Earth along with the prehistoric animals. What if Satan was as the bible declares, the most beautiful Angle and he was to oversee those in the prehistoric age. we know that, and we acclaim to the fact that we have guarding Angles to watch over us now and we can see where they appeared throughout the ages to mankind and protected and fought the battles of the Lord and Gods saints. We can say for sure that these Angles did exist. and they were there at the creation, for they too was of the creation themselves. Had God made male and female long before Adam’s time this would explain how Cain had married a wife, when we do not have any record of it mentioned that he had a sister that, as they say, he took for a wife. The question is then how this wife of Cain got to the place that she was there for Cain to take as his wife. Some has said that he took a monkey, this is absurd. I believe that God did create many males and female before that of Adam’s era and they were in existence in the era of the beginning along with the prehistoric animals. When Darkness was upon the face of the Deep, this is referring to the fact that Satan had then become evil and took that which God created and caused man’s mind to become corrupted and we know that the mind is what God called the Deep. if we would, and throughout this document I have revealed that the mind is the Deep. and the word refers to it as the Deep. Satan caused the earth to become void of understanding and men and women’s mind was corrupted as the bible recorded it was at the time of the flood when Noah found Grace in the eyes of God. This is where that God took Judgment upon these Men of Old, Genesis 6:1-8 (KJV) And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, [2] That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. [3] And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. [4] There were giants in the earth in those days; and also, after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. [5] And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. [6] And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. [7] And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. [8] But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. Many have wondered who were these that are called the Sons of God. Some have said that these were Angles, and that they were the fallen Angles. if this is so, then we can see that the Angles can and do come to this side in the form of flesh. Should this be the case, this would explain how that Satan was able to temp Eve in the Garden and to cause here to take of the forbidden fruit. I have wondered how she bared the first child, and that that first child was of the Devil. 1 John 3:8 (KJV) He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3:10 (KJV) In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. 1 John 3:12 (KJV) Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. We can see here how that Satan’s seed came into this environment. I have always wondered if the fact was known, did Eve have an affair with someone else besides Adam? Could this be the fruit of the evil one that she took off? I know that this sounds absurd, and one would not go as far as to say that this did happen. We know that when Animals breed, that more than one male can impart to the female a sperm and different species can come from that female animal. especially the Dog, the bible refers to the fact that dogs shall not enter into Heaven. Rev. 22:15 (KJV) For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. Why would in Revelation it would mention Dogs, and to classify that they were not to enter into Heaven. God is referring to something else of that of a dog. He is referring to those that have sex in multiple people and are like the Dogs, will go into a female and where many have gone into the same female. This type of infusion of sperm leaves a gross amount of sinful nature and many are defiled thereby. To get back to how the word became dark and void, Satan then was a beast of the field and was very subtle. Genesis 3:1 (KJV) Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? Now if he was able to transform himself into those that God had created and placed into the environment of that when the prehistoric animals lived, and Satan corrupted the Earth and through his subtlety caused the light of God, which he had with God and was an Angle of Light. 2 Cor. 11:14 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. We can see that he was transformed, this means that he was of some other existence before that he was into an angle of light. Could it be that he was of that other creation, and he himself existed in a form like of that of God and Jesus Christ. Could he have become a great leader and through the power and Glory that God allowed him to receive, he took this like, the antichrist today that is to come in the false prophet, exalt himself above that is called God. This would explain how he had corrupted the earth and made it void. When this happened, God judged him and cast him from heaven. Jesus said that he beheld Satan fall from Heaven, Luke 10:18 (KJV) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Satan caused the Light of God to cease to exist in the world at that era and when the light of God ceased to exist, the world became void and darkness came upon the minds of the creation and as the minds of those that existed then, the world itself became cold and darkness came over the whole earth and everything that existed froze in the Ice. This is why the scientist say that there was an Ice Age. Evidence of the Ice Age existed. We can see that when our scientists freeze the sperm, that it can at a later time be placed into the womb and can fertile an egg of that of a women and life can be brought into existence. We know that when some species that are frozen, can be thawed out later and come back to life and continue on. Could this have been the case of that of where and whom was there when Cain went from the presence of the Lord into the Land of Nod, We know that Nod means away from, Genesis 4:16 (KJV) And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. »Strong's Help Nowd, Hebrew 5113, Strong's Nowd, node; the same as Hebrew 5112 (nowd); vagrancy; Nod, the land of Cain :- Nod. »Strong's Help nowd, Hebrew 5112, Strong's nowd, node; [only defective nod, node]; from Hebrew 5110 (nuwd); exile :- wandering. »Strong's Help nuwd, Hebrew 5110, Strong's nuwd, nood; a primitive root; to nod, i.e. waver; figurative to wander, flee, disappear; also (from shaking the head in sympathy), to console, deplore, or (from tossing the head in scorn) taunt :- bemoan, flee, get, mourn, make to move, take pity, remove, shake, skip for joy, be sorry, vagabond, way, wandering. Cain found a wife there. Genesis 4:17 (KJV) And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch. Here is the first murder and liar. Romans 1:29 (KJV) Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 1 John 3:8 (KJV) He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. As Cain was from the Devil and was a Devil in the flesh, he was again able to take to him a wife and to bring his seed forth into this world. What did the fruit of that which the Serpent cause her to partake of? Whatever it was, we know that she bare a son and that seed in that son was the Devil coming into the world. Could he have come across by transformation? Solomon said that there was nothing new under the sun. Eccles. 1:9 (KJV) The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. it is like that all that is happening took place in another world and this is what Solomon was referring to, when he said that there is nothing new. Satan came across through the flesh from the Ice Age and because of his ability to corrupt those that existed at that era, He has taken to himself as an ongoing effort to corrupt again and again the creation and to destroy through the flesh, everything, and everyone. God referred to the fact that he created both evil and good. God made in an earnest effort to place in the prehistoric age, those that could have had total love and peace and Satan in his form of whatsoever it was had access to those in that era, just as he has access to us in our days and is coming still through the flesh and taking on the form of God. Satan has been removed from his authority of the prehistoric world and again he was silenced for a while at the flood of Noah, He through the flesh has continued until the Cross where he met with the creator. there he was finally defeated, and he was cast out of the presence of God for eternality. He knows that he has a short time and is still making war against the saints and is determined to wear out the saints and believes that he can still overthrow God’s kingdom and marches right into the flames of the outer Darkness and has not been convinced that he has lost the battle. End 12, 14. 2002 Today I want to touch on the thought of that of How Satan Was To Be Like God. For this I will bring into this book again the scripture that states that Satan said himself that he would be like God. Isaiah 14:14 (KJV) I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. This brings us back to the beginning of this book where the Apostle Paul, having found certain disciples there, recorded in the 19th chapter of Acts. This is important to understand what it is to have the Holy Ghost in our lives. We all know, and Satan knows very well that Jesus did come to the world and died on the cross. Satan knows this is real and evident. Satan knows that because this, he was removed from heaven and cast out into the earth. Rev. 12:12 (KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. We can in the 12th chapter of revelation see that this man child that was being born and delivered is in fact Jesus. Satan knew that Jesus was coming to the Earth to redeem mankind back to God. Satan just did not know how and when he was coming. This has kept a mystery, and for that reason, Jesus was brought through the Holy Ghost to the womb of the virgin Mary. Mary was under the Law at the time of conception. Christ was made under the Law. Galatians 4:4 (KJV) But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, At the time that Christ was made, The Law had come to the fullness of time, this meant that mankind was come to the full, Again man had corrupted the environment and as a whole, man had reached his final end. That is where Jesus Came into the Picture. Now we know that the promises of God are sure and steadfast. Psalm 111:7 (KJV) The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure. »Strong's Help 'emeth, Hebrew 571, Strong's 'emeth, eh'-meth; contraction from Hebrew 539 ('aman); stability; figurative certainty, truth, trustworthiness :- assured (-ly), establishment, faithful, right, sure, true (-ly, -th), verity. We know that not one title of the Law will go unfilled. Matthew 5:18 (KJV) For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. »Strong's Help keraia, Greek 2762, Strong's keraia, ker-ah'-yah; feminine of a presumed derivative of the base of Greek 2768 (keras); something horn-like, i.e. (special) the apex of a Hebrew letter (figurative the least particle) :- tittle. This means that the least of those things that are written in the Law will come to pass and be fulfilled. We can rest assured that God is in control and will remain in control forever. Satan wanted to be like God and has come down to the world and has taken on the nature of the flesh, as Paul said, in him dwells no good thing. Romans 7:18 (KJV) For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. So, we can know that he is present with us and has a messenger to buffet, or to torment us continuously. Why does Satan want to torment us? Why doesn’t he just go away and leave us alone? Satan knows that we as God’s children have in the atonement the forgiveness of sins and he knows that he cannot ever be forgiven. Satan knows that the Blood of Jesus can and does cleanse us of our sins. Satan knows that the blood of Jesus makes us to appear white as snow. Why does he continue to defile and to attempt to defile each and every one of us? I have heard the remark made that Satan does not care how much you and I go to church. why would anyone make this statement and is there any merit to that statement? There are reasons for everything, and I suppose there is a reason for that statement to be made. One reason is that Satan has crept into the House of God. When I say the house of God, I am not talking about a building made with materials of wood and stone, I am talking of the House of Flesh. The flesh is where Paul identified that Satan was dwelling and caused much misery to come to him. The flesh is the Temple of the Holy Ghost. 1 Cor. 6:19 (KJV) What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? Now we are getting to the point that starts to make sense why Satan does not give up and go away. I can forgive you of the things that you have done contrary to that which is right. Yet you have to receive forgiveness in order to make it effective. Now just because I have forgiven you does not mean that you cannot do to me the things that is contrary, over and over again, I would have to have built into the forgiveness that I have given to you, not only to wipe away, that which has been done, but that which is done in the future. You would have to come to me and ask, not only the forgiveness of the past but the forgiveness of the future, anyway who can predict what tomorrow, and what sins will be committed in the future. How would we identify with the things that are done, that is contrary to that which is right. This is where Satan is able to wear out the saints of the most high. Daniel 7:25 (KJV) And he shall speak great words against the most High and shall wear out the saints of the most High and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. What is the meaning of this scripture? Satan under the Law came into the presence of God among the men of God and accused them continually. Job 1:6 (KJV) Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them. Job 2:1 (KJV) Again, there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the Lord. If Satan is to be like the most High God and wants to ascend high, and this is the evidence that we can recognize where he is among those around us, when we see someone who is always exalting themselves or those that follow that one that is exalted, and the exaltation that I am referring to is that of the flesh, we can identify to the fact that this is not of God. This Spirit is not from Above, but is of the flesh, or from beneath, from Hell. Isaiah 14:9 (KJV) Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. John 8:23 (KJV) Jesus was telling those that were in the flesh and who thought that those things that were being done was that of the earth. This is why these wanted to identify with Jesus in the flesh. This is why Satan took Jesus up into a high mountain and tried to get him to bow down and worship him. This is the point that I am making that. Satan, as long as he can keep you and I thinking on the fleshly terms and hold onto and follow the ways of the flesh, he knows that he can be exalted in his habitation, that habitation is the flesh. This is how he is exalted. Satan wants us to stay beneath him. We allow Satan to keep us beneath him and he makes us to glorify him in the flesh. Satan knows that as we walk after the flesh, even though we have been forgiven, yet he keeps under his control as long as we walk in the flesh and lust after the flesh. Satan just do not want the Holy Ghost to abide inside you and I and if he can keep this from coming into our temples, he has achieved the goal that he desires. That goal is to ascend to a height of that which God can only be. God has in his plan, God has in Jesus Christ, God has erected at tabernacle that is not from beneath, that is, of this earth, but that tabernacle is from above and is eternal. That tabernacle is what God was telling Moses to build in the wilderness, and to fashion it after the pattern of that which is in Heaven, Heaven means Truth, and that is what Jesus was. John 8:44 (KJV) Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. When the Holy Ghost is in us. we can know of a surety that the Truth is in us. I do not know how much plainer it is that I can write these words. The fact is, that to have God and Jesus Christ in you, for God and Jesus to dwell in you, it can only become a reality through the Holy Ghost, To have forgiveness, anyone can and does have forgiveness. That forgiveness was provided on the cross. Jesus said that if he were lifted Up, that he would draw all men nigh to him. John 12:32 (KJV) And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. All men will be drawn nigh to Jesus. In fact, every knee will bow and confess that Jesus is Lord. Isaiah 45:23 (KJV) I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Romans 14:11 (KJV) For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. Yes, I believe that Satan has confessed that God is God, and I am sure that according to the scripture that Satan does believe in God. Satan knows that there is a God and all he wants is a place to reside in. That place is in your and my hearts. You have heard that, if you give certain one’ an inch, they; will take a mile. This saying came from the very fact that, if Satan is given any space in our lives, he will reign as king of our lives. We are to bring our body’s into subjection, which means to have control of our fleshly desires. Do not give the Devil a chance to corrupt your lives and to cause your temple to be destroyed. Ephes. 4:27 (KJV) Neither give place to the devil. Paul said, he had to keep his body under subjection at all times, 1 Cor. 9:27 (KJV) But I keep under my body and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. The body when it gets the attention that it requires, not the body itself, but that no good thing that dwells in it, Romans 7:18 (KJV) For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. That no good thing is the messenger of Satan. Romans 7:23 (KJV) But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and y bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in members. Paul is saying that he keeps the desires of the flesh, he keeps them down under the body. In other words, we can put Satan under control, and he is put underneath our body’s. Satan then becomes Jesus Christ’s footstool. Satan is in essence used to rest our feet upon, when we are buffeted, we can place him under our feet, and he becomes a footstool to rest our feet on while we sit in the comfort of the presence of God through the Holy Ghost. Can you and I say that we have Satan under our bodies. If so, he is under the building of God. Satan at that level is like dirt under the foundation of a building and is used to set a building upon. The dirt under a house is not seen unless we go and crawl under the house. We can crawl under the house, live in that state of environment, and stay in the dark continuously, or we can dwell in the house that God has given us to dwell in in comfort. Here is where that Satan lets us believe in God and has nothing to worry about as long as the Holy Ghost does not abide in this temple. Satan does not care that you accept the promises of God as long as you do not allow those promises to become alive in your heart. A Law on paper has no effect at all until legislator is passed and it becomes alive and in existence. God, himself is of no strength until it is become tested and instituted into the hearts of those that believe. Hebrews said that no testament is of any force, while it liveth. Hebrews 9:17 (KJV) For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise, it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. This is what Paul was saying, That as long as his flesh was glorified, then the Holy Ghost that was in him could not be of any force. 2 Cor. 12:10 (KJV) Therefore, I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. you see we, as long as we put the flesh up above God, we are in essence, putting Satan up high above the God that we have in our hearts. Satan then becomes as he said, exalted above God. We then are giving place for Satan to rise and become like God. Satan has become the God of our lives and is exalted and when this happens, God has no other choice except to bring him down and when he falls, he falls with fierce anger, and he will take you down with him and you will suffer the most painful experience that you ever have. Satan does not like to be a footstool; God has bruised him. Psalm 18:9 (KJV) He bowed the heavens also and came down: and darkness was under his feet. Satan is that Darkness that was there in Genesis. Satan caused the earth to become dark and void. 1 Cor. 15:27 (KJV) For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. Those that have not the Holy Ghost in them have been put under the feet of God and can rest assured that they will confess God almighty at the time that everything that is under the feet of Jesus, which is delivered up. As Jesus is excepted, we that are in Jesus Christ, will be in the exception and we will be there and are now there through the Holy Ghost, sitting at the right hand of the Father. Ephes. 2:6 (KJV) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: The next verse is to all of us that desire to know God and who will steal away into a upper room and call on God and ask Jesus to let the Promise that was promised to every believer, to let the Promise, that is the Holy Ghost to come into our lives and to take us to the level of, through the faith in us and the power of the Holy Ghost, right up to the Throne of The God. Ephes. 3:10 (KJV) To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, When you say that God never intended for you to not know all of the bible, brother, or sister, how and when do you receive the authority to say what and how much knowledge and revelations that God will let you obtain. The above verse confirms that God wants his children to have all of the knowledge that he has for them and all you and I need to do is seek God until we find it. Matthew 7:7 (KJV) Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: Are you saying that Jesus is not speaking the truth, if so, you need to repent and ask forgiveness. To sum up the total of the writings of this book is to say that God is not limited to what he has in store for those that love him. 1 Cor. 2:9 (KJV) But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. It may be impossible for us to gain all the knowledge that God has for us, this is not that God will not give it to us, it is that we do not seek to find out the things that God has for us. But when we have the Baptism of the Holy Ghost we have, in essence a data bank, that is unlimited and has no end. We have at our disposable a unlimited vast amount of wisdom, you see, the Holy Ghost is God the Father, He is Jesus the Son of God and He is the Holy Ghost the voice of God that has been in the earth ever since the creation of the world and all that is in existence. When God Said. Then those things came into existence and when we confess that which the Holy Ghost brings to our remembrance we are in essence the Voice of God and as the Voice of God walked with Adam and eve in the cool of the day, He will walk among and is walking among us today, and not only among us in the Garden of Paradise, he walks in our hearts and leads into all knowledge and Truth. The Holy Ghost takes that printed word in the Bible and makes it come to existence in our lives and God becomes the God of the living, and not the God of the dead. Mark 12:27 (KJV) He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err. When he took Adam out of the earth, sure the earth had been corrupted by Satan and darkness was upon the deep. God reached down and took a handful of Dry Dust, and he took it into his Hand, his hand was Jesus Christ, and in Jesus Christ, the voice of God, the voice spoke and when it spoke, God breathed the breath of life into that handful of Dust and that Dust changed into a living Soul. When Jesus was there with the disciples, darkness was taking hold of the souls there and the earth was to be cursed once again and Jesus breathed upon the disciples and spoke. John 20:22 (KJV) And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: The Same Voice that was there in the Garden of Eden, with Adam and Eve and that had breathed upon that handful of dust was standing here in the presence of Peter and the other disciples and was again Speaking the Words of Live into these disciples and soon after they and All that had believed on God, form Able to that day and to this day and until the coming of Jesus Christ to this earth again, would again, Like Adam, would be changed from a dry experience into a living Soul, that soul would and be kept by, and Sealed by the Holy Ghost, the word of God is powerful and sharper that any two edged sword, That Word cut into the hearts of those that were there when Jesus breathed upon them and said receive ye the Holy Ghost. This is the Same Jesus that is Saying to you and me today and continues to breathes upon us and says to you and me to receive the Holy Ghost. This is no wonder why Paul wanted those that were believers to receive the Holy Ghost, Paul wanted them to know who that man was that was on that cross of Calvary. Do you really know Jesus, Have you received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? Has your Christian experience been eroded away, like mine did, After I was saved, I read about the Holy Ghost and inquired at what this meaneth, i went to those that I thought would be able to give me the answers, only to find that they themselves had not the answer, because they had been taught like many today is that to accept the forgiveness of Christ is all one need to do. That when you receive the forgiveness by asking, that is all that God has for you and you get it all. I knew that in asking those about the Holy Ghost, that they avoided the scripture where it mentioned the experience. After the messenger of Satan buffeting me continuously my experience with Christ began to erode and I started to look to the things of the flesh and found that I, as Paul said, found that I was not able to do that which I would do, and that which I would not do, that I did, I didn’t understand what was taking place in my life, I thought that I had lost my senses and became one like a mad man. Finally, after ten years, I met my wife and she had been raised around those that had the Holy Ghost and she, one day coming from town to our home my wife pointed out a church building and said, there is a church that believes the way that you do. I contacted the Pastor of that Church and set up an appointment to talk with him about the way I felt and to find the answers that I desired, That Pastor told me to come to church and sit in the congregation and to observe and not to be critical and wait on the lord to show me the truth. That is what I did, and I saw many infallible proofs of the power of the Holy Ghost. After about a year, My spouse came to church and sitting there the Holy Ghost fell on her and she shook it off, I suppose she was afraid of what was happening, In the next few days, She was invited to go with her cousin to another Pentecostal church and there she was slain in the Holy Ghost and when she came home, she, every time she started to speak, she spoke in tongues as the spirit gave utterance. This got me motivated into receiving the Holy Ghost. There was a great revival that came to our church and the Evangelist preached under the anointing and around ninety were baptized in the Holy Ghost and over one hundred saved and, You guessed it, I went to the Alter to Get what mine was. and at 10.30 pm at the alter the Holy Ghost came upon me and into me and God become real to me like I had never known. Yes, he was real to me at the time I got Saved, and to sum it up, it is like having a big piece of Cake and not having the Icing on the cake, yes, the cake is great, but when the Icing is on the Cake, yum. Can you, the reader, understand this? I was raised in the back woods in Tennessee and There was no mention of the Holy Ghost and In fact the way I was raised, If you said that you had the Holy Ghost, you was said to have the devil in you. Can you imagine what many that believe that way are missing? Could it be that they are none of Christ. Romans 8:9 (KJV) 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. Is Paul saying that if you have not the Holy Ghost, you are none of his? I do not want to hear Jesus say at the Judgment. Matthew 7:23 (KJV) And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Why would Jesus cause such sore punishment to come on the Nation of Israel? Was it because he did not love them? Jesus said that he would have taken them under his wings like a mother hen, Matthew 23:37 (KJV) O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! The Nation of Israel, said at the cross, Matthew 27:25 (KJV) Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. Is his blood upon you and your children? Have you rejected the Lord, you would not reject him you would say, yet ye speak against the Holy Ghost and when you speak blasphemy of the Holy Ghost, you are denying that Jesus is Lord, You cannot say that Jesus is Lord, except by the Holy Ghost. 1 Cor. 12:3 (KJV) Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. How much plainer can this be to those that still deny the Power of the Holy Ghost and that of Speaking with Tongues. The Tongues is a sign, 1 Cor. 14:22 (KJV) Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. Amos 2:9 (KJV) Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
