In Israel’s 12 tribes we see a ‘breach’ between brothers of 2/10. Breach means broken
‘unity’. John said He who loves God MUST love his brother also. Jesus "hung" all the
law and prophets on 2 commandments that are fulfilled by vertical AND horizontal
AGAPE, forming the sign of the cross. Jesus said "take up your cross and follow me" in
the ‘Way’ out of death into life, as there is no greater love than to lay down your life for
your brother. We are to lay down or ‘die’ to sin and self BEFORE we can ‘ascend’ to
perfect LOVE. If we exchange DEAF, BLIND, LAME = DEATH for HEAR, SEE, WALK =
LIVE, we will be on God’s path to RESURRECTION.
AGAPE must contain 3 to reach perfection, anything less is subject to corruption.
"Where 2 or more are ‘gathered together’ in My Name I AM in their midst", creating a 3-
cord strand that is not quickly broken. God joins His cord with our cord and we are to
join that cord with another forming the "perfect bond of love" or covenant. We apply this
in marriage but also in brotherly love which points to the Philadelphia church in
Revelation chapter 3 that has set before them an ‘open door’ that no one can shut.
1John 4:17-21
No one can say "Jesus is Lord’ except by the Holy Spirit". "The Spirit stands at the ‘door’
and knocks and if anyone hears His voice and opens the door, He comes in to ‘dine’
with him". Keywords here are DOOR and DINE. The Holy Spirit says "COME-UNION",
partake of the “LOVE feasts”. The ‘consummation of LOVE’ creates an unbroken ‘circle’
completing UNITY, covenant, marriage, and ultimately GLORIFICATION. In John
chapter 17 Jesus prays "Father, GLORIFY Your Son…Mine are Yours and Yours are
Mine, and I am glorified in them…that they may all be ONE as You Father are in Me and
I in You: that they also may be ONE in Us…that they may be made perfect." The Lord
had me read John 17 and Psalm 24 out loud together. "This is Jacob, the generation of
those who seek Your face. Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, you
everlasting doors! And the King of Glory shall come in!"
Genesis to Revelation reveals 3 ʻwills’ within God’s creation plan. In Genesis God
proclaimed creation "good" where we see 2 ʻtreesʼ whose names are "Life" and
"Knowledge". After man turned from God’s ‘good’ will, he entered His ‘acceptable’ will
where we are subjected to futility until we enter God’s ‘perfect’ will of LIBERTY in the
manifestation of the SONS OF GOD, Romans 8:18-30. Within every man are 2 ‘houses’
with opposing natures. "A house divided cannot stand" so it ‘falls’ lame, asleep, or dead
and must ‘re-erect’ or RESURRECT. In Revelation 3 we see a ‘door’ and a ‘key’. Jesus
is the DOOR that is opened to man by the ‘key’ of GOD’S LOVE. We are shown a
prophetic portrait of this when Jesus invited Thomas to stick His finger in the hole in His
side representing the ‘key’ opening the ‘Door’. "We LOVE Him because He first LOVED
us". As an act of Fatherly LOVE, God is raising us up from our fall by forming “Christ in
us” through a process that begins in our spirit that has been justified or reconciled back
to God by the blood of Jesus through PASSOVER. Our soul is being sanctified by the
baptism of the Holy Spirit’s cleansing water of the Word and the purifying tongues of fire
through PENTECOST. Our bodies are then glorified with IMMANUEL, GOD IN US as
we become mature SONS made perfect by the bond OF LOVE through
TABERNACLES. Then the Kingdom comes, THE LORD IS THERE!
