For the next several days, I will be out on a mission and have limited access to posting blogs. I encourage you to spend quality time with FATHER. HE is available 24/7. I expect to post new blogs beginning on the day we celebrate Love.
On a Mission
February 4th, 2015Use and Abuse of Power
February 3rd, 2015In its simplest definition, Babel or Babylon = "confusion (by mixing)". We must reconcile the fact the second beast was given miracles to do:
Revelation 13:13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was given to do in the sight of the beast.
Our Heavenly Father isn’t restricted to HIS Throne in the third Heaven. HE can be found anywhere:
Psalm 139:
7 Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
I once heard of a man who became an evangelist in order to make a living. He had not received salvation himself but learned the Bible and developed a great method of preaching. In his services many were saved. Finally after hearing THE WORD for so long, he himself was saved. Did his previous state keep the power of THE WORD from working in the hearts of people? No. Can healing occur in the midst of Babylon? Yes. Do miracles occur in the midst of a congregation led by a deceitful pastor? Sure. FATHER does not hold back HIS power to heal because the people are undeserving and blind. Love heals in spite of their condition. However, men will take a bow when miracles occur in order to further establish their derivative power.
On Pentecost weekend in 1996 I was in a meeting where positive ministry occurred by a young man who was deceiving the congregation by his apparent “anointing”. He had an assistant who would direct him to the next person for “ministry”. The heart of the recipient determined the blessing received, not the speaker.
There are many instances of miracles performed by men who did not represent FATHER but HE allowed them to operate as such. A classic example is found in Exodus chapter 7:
11 But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
12 For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
13 And Pharaoh’s heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the LORD had said.
The only way a magician’s rod could become a snake is if FATHER allowed it to happen… period. HE will allow miracles to come forth as we are being tested and trained. In the end, they all have a purpose that may not be understood at the time. Aaron’s rod consuming the others is the point to be made here. We must not let deceiving “great” signs be the determining factor in our path. We must hear HIS Voice and take the path HE places us on. The earth dwellers are deceived but we must not be. FATHER allows us to see the abuse of power and authority in order that we will know what NOT to do.
Over the years, FATHER used me to give many “messages in Tongues” to the church. Each and every message was interpreted in a proper manner. I struggled with the carnal man as we all do but nonetheless on Sunday morning HE would use me as a willing vessel to bring forth a Word. If HE waited until one of us was fully matured to empower us, a multitude of ministry opportunities would be missed. An imperfect vessel can be used. After all, an imperfect vessel must be matured, purged, cleansed, and transformed into perfection.
The beast will use miracles to increase its power and enslave people to its agenda. FATHER’S Kingdom does not come by abuse of power. It has Love as its foundation and power is given to those who have a heart for the betterment of people no matter what their race, creed, or color. Love demands that no system be built to put people in a proverbial box and require them to constantly perform in the area of support, financially or otherwise. We are called to be fruitful for the Kingdom and abuse of power will not bring forth that fruit. FATHER will make sure of that. Let us not perpetuate the abuse of power by sacrificing to the world’s various systems: political, religious, and/or economic for they are all facets of Mystery Babylon, the supreme abuser of power and source of complexity resulting in confusion. Now is the time to see the abuse of power all around us.
The False Prophet
February 2nd, 2015The second beast of Revelation 13 is the false prophet whose job is to exalt the first beast with great signs and wonders. The first beast appears to be “anointed” but in a false manner and would be labeled as a “false christ”. A true prophet draws men toward Our Heavenly Father whereas a false prophet moves men away from HIM. A prophet is one who speaks on behalf of another. The term “false” does not necessarily mean that all is spoken is a lie. A false prophecy can contain facts but has the wrong intent behind the words spoken thus the prophecy will deceive you. This is why it is critical to focus on the Living Word and be led by THE SPIRIT. You will not be deceived by false prophets. As you dwell in your closet, your sensitivity to THE SPIRIT increases. With this greater sensitivity you then read Scripture that take on deeper meaning to you, thus you grow and mature. How many of us have read the same passage at different points in time and see greater Truths expressed that were missed in earlier studies?
A false prophet’s purpose is to influence your mind, will, and emotions. A great sign seen by many is an emotional experience leading you to believe the one who disclosed it beforehand. If I tell half of the readers that the stock market is going up tomorrow and the other half that it is going down during the same period, among one group I will be right and they will view me as being able to foretell the future. How easily are men deceived!
Our FATHER is the GOD of Love. If a minister preaches eternal damnation in hell, is he a false prophet? For whom is he speaking? If FATHER has a plan of reconciliation of all mankind, why does an evangelist use threats, intimidation, fear, and coercion to bring us up to the altar? Is the evangelist a false prophet as well? How many books have been written about Armageddon and evoked fear in the hearts of the readers? Would those authors fall into the same category?
Love dispels falsehood and is not moved by fear promoted by the false prophet. This second beast has an appearance as a lamb, a deception:
Revelation 13:11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.
He speaks like a dragon who promotes fear and intimidation by using threatening words. Everything coming out of his mouth is deceptive in nature though he comes in sheep’s clothing. The words of the false prophets are designed to put you in bondage and keep you submitted to its leading and direction. You are told to stay under its covering of protection as though FATHER is unable to protect you HIMSELF. You are belittled by the false prophet’s superior intelligence and you dare not challenge it. You are deceived into believing the only way you can hear FATHER is through an intermediary who is “anointed” and called to be your overseer. This goes contrary with Jesus’ own words:
John 10:25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name, they bear witness of Me.
26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you.
27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.
30 I and My Father are one.”
You don’t need a man to be your intermediary, FATHER is fully available and accessible to each and every one of us. The false prophet would lead you to believe otherwise. Why do you think that so many have been removed from the local church and have been somewhat isolated from their teachings? We have to be removed from the noise of the world’s influence to improve our hearing. How many have attempted to make you feel guilty because you departed their “covering”? Does FATHER’S Love condemn? Moses had to be separated, Joseph had to be separated, Jesus had to be separated, thus you and I have to be separated in our final preparation.
The message of the false prophet is eternal damnation and destruction. It is the exact opposite of FATHER’S Divine Intent of restoration. The false prophet will use isolated Scripture references to convince the mind of this doctrine. As a young man, I was taken in by this preaching assuming that the pastor would not lead me astray. But later as I matured and grew in HIS Word, I came to realize that HIS Love would not allow 95% of mankind to be condemned to an eternal damnation. I am no longer deceived by the false prophet nor will I allow any other message other than the Good News of FATHER determine my path. The revelation of HIS Love is the key to finding this path and staying on it.
In contrast to the message of the false prophet, read carefully what Paul wrote in Ephesians chapter 2:
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,
5 even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
6 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
This is exactly why we must dispel the notion that this final book, the Fifth Gospel, is one of bad news when in fact it exposes the hindrances to our maturing process. It exposes the source of the deception that has kept mankind from being restored to FATHER. The mysteries have been reserved for the initiated for the culmination of the return of Christ and the harvest of the entire planet. The false prophet has been fully exposed!
The Second Beast’s Great Signs
February 1st, 2015Revelation 13:13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived.
A prophet is one who is claimed to have been contacted by the supernatural or the divine, and to speak for them, serving as an intermediary with humanity, delivering this newfound knowledge from the supernatural entity to other people. This second beast fulfills that role on behalf of the first beast.
This second beast is divisive in nature and thus promotes division among men. Great signs are performed in order to deceive those who are immature in Christ as well as the rest of mankind. This second beast causes men to worship the first beast under false pretenses hence the second beast functions as a false prophet. Only the Sons will not be deceived. Their faith in FATHER is immovable unlike those who view the great signs of the beast and are impacted by them. James chapter 1 speaks of this problem:
6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;
8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
Jesus also spoke of these signs being given to mankind when asked about the sign of His coming at the end of the age in Matthew 24. He warned us about the deceptiveness of these signs and how the majority would be taken in by them with the exception of the elect (Sons):
23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it.
24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
25 See, I have told you beforehand.
The second beast relies on mankind being unstable and easily swayed. They do not know FATHER, HIS Love, or HIS Power. They rely on “self” which is a hard taskmaster. False prophets among men have risen up who are submitted to the second beast’s intent to deceive all of mankind. Only the standard of the Truth and THE SPIRIT can be used to discern who to believe in these times. This second beast is specifically identified as the false prophet in later chapters of Revelation:
19:20 Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.
20:10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
False prophets will use world events to be confirmations of their signs as though those signs are specifically tied to their prophecy. How can you challenge their veracity? The deception is notable and widespread just as we are warned that “great” signs will come forth. We must not be misled by these false prophets and the only way to be assured that we are on the right path is to stick close to FATHER in these times. We must no let the noise surrounding us drown out HIS Voice in our hearts. Jesus warned us that men’s Love would grow cold during these times:
Matthew 24:11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold
Isn’t that the goal of the two beasts: to cause men to walk away from Love at the center of FATHER’S Character? These two beasts are promoting lawlessness as I write at this very moment. Perversion is replacing normality. The moral compass of this nation as well as many others has been dashed against the rocks. The greed of Wall Street causes scarcity among the masses which in turn causes men to become greedy for scarce resources as well. It is spiraling out of control and only the Sons are able to arrest the current momentum of destruction and turn mankind away from certain destruction. However, the world is not yet embracing the Ones who will bring forth the solution.
Over the years, I have received many “words” and visions from prophets, those who speak on behalf of FATHER. These words and visions were needful in my maturing process both to encourage me and warn me. Some were for my education and training as well. But as I matured, I needed less intervention. As I fully mature in the revelation of Love and can hear FATHER’S full Divine Intent, I need less intervention from an intermediary now as my sensitivity to HIS Voice has increased. Given this understanding, now consider what Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 13:
8 Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away.
When you hear FATHER’S Words clearly, you need no intermediary thus the need for prophecies, tongues and interpretation, knowledge, and any other lesser source is no longer necessary for you. Thus the second beast known later to be a false prophet of of the first beast will have no impact on the Sons who are able to hear FATHER’S Voice and who have taken on HIS Nature. This is one aspect of the jubilee contained in this final book of Good News! The second beast’s great signs will not deceive you.
The Counterfeit Path
January 31st, 2015Revelation 13:11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.
12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
Counterfeit means: made in exact imitation of something valuable or important with the intention to deceive or defraud. In the above passage, horns represent power and this power is made to look like the power of the lamb. It is made to look like it is GOD-given and it is “like” but not truly a lamb thus it is a deception.
The beasts in Revelation 13 represent systems, organizations, institutions, movements, and governments and they are all influenced by the spirit of antichrist. They may have started out with good intentions but any revelation has been replaced with watered down tradition. I am reminded that FATHER kept moving the children in the wilderness forty-one times before the final move into the Promised Land. They were not to build permanent houses but instead were to follow the Presence of FATHER from place to place. This speaks of being pliable as FATHER moves us to greater revelation. Are you still hanging on to old manna that has gone stale? We must move when FATHER moves for when HIS Glory departs, we too must depart. Twenty-seven months ago, FATHER told us to begin a Bible Study Broadcast. We covered the four books published by this Ministry. For 102 broadcasts we remained faithful to HIS Word. Now that phase is completed. We must move on for there is no sense in having a broadcast without HIS anointing on it. It would just be a social gathering under the pretense of imparting greater revelation. Those 102 broadcasts represented a time of expansion but now we are in a time of compression in order that the next greater expansion may come forth.
How many organizations do you know of that have lost their purpose? Are they still around simply to perpetuate their system and provide themselves jobs? Has the original vision been lost? The genuine is replaced with the counterfeit. Isn’t fiat currency simply a counterfeit to gold-backed money? How long will the system of fiat currency last? Once the masses see that the fiat system is effectively counterfeit and has no true value, it will collapse. Mystery Babylon relies on the perception of value represented by fiat currency to retain its power. It is a huge Ponzi scheme destined to destroy the savings of the multitude. It currently only has power and authority because it has been given or transferred this power by the masses.
1 Corinthians 3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ.
2 I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able;
3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?
4 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?
The above passage speaks of the divisions of the carnal nature promoting separate organizations. This is what the carnal man does. On the other hand, Love unifies. Paul reveals that spiritually immature people will be moved by their carnal nature and promote divisions which ultimately turn into organizations and finally into institutions. As this occurs, competition arises to feed the ego, proclaiming to be better than the others and promoting further division. This ultimately spirals down to submitting to the second beast who preys on the soulish realm of man and then men walk according to their soulish nature. The result- organizations, systems, and governments, none of them fulfilling the true need of the people. Got a problem? Let’s enact another law!
How many more denominations will rise out of the second beast? How many more governments will be formed being motivated by this second beast? There is only one GOD and there need be only one government! Why expend unnecessary energy forming a counterfeit? Why not pursue FATHER and know that HE will intervene in your life and replace the counterfeit with the genuine. Being religious is not being Christ-like. Neither a robe nor a collar makes one spiritual.
Two horns are a counterfeit to the seven horns seen in the midst of the Throne in Heaven:
Revelation 5:6 And I looked, and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
The number two refers to division whereas the number seven represents Spiritual maturity. The second beast has divisive power and unity will not be found among those who follow after the beast. Where there is division, it is life-draining for none will provide others with supply. Scarcity is promoted as a way of life and competition for resources is encouraged, often resulting in war.
Being ‘like” a lamb denotes an outward presentation of being Christian. This refers to being religious without the Love. The Pharisees knew the Law but had no revelation of Love for the people. They were interested in promoting their own agendas at the expense of the people. Should we build another bigger building? The lamb nature speaks of a meek, nonaggressive nature but the beast is like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. On the outside there is an appearance of a non-threatening nature but on the inside there is a “take no prisoner” attitude and intent. The beast is a counterfeit to the Truth. This beast speaks like a dragon thus speaking forth great lies and deception. It is no longer subtle like the serpent but now is spewing forth lies continuously. It is consistently convincing us it has the answer that will fix the current system and it just needs a little more time and money. The Love of the Truth is not in the mouths of those following the path of the beast.
On a personal level, we must not submit to the soulish carnal nature but instead focus on Christ and His Love. Jesus is the Horn of our salvation as revealed in Luke 1:
67 Now his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying:
68 “Blessed is the Lord God of Israel,
For He has visited and redeemed His people,
69 And has raised up a horn of salvation for us
In the house of His servant David,
70 As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets,
Who have been since the world began,
71 That we should be saved from our enemies
And from the hand of all who hate us,
The beast is our enemy has his two horns represent derivative power obtained by deception. The creative power of FATHER is what delivers and redeems us. Let the water of HIS Word bring forth the good fruit to be harvested. Without water the fruit will not mature and as I study this Fifth Gospel I can sense the growth occurring. I am being strengthened as I dwell on HIS Word and HIS Love. The process may seem slow at times but the maturing process must have patience associated with it. We are being perfected as we are finally dispelling the religious views of this Fifth Gospel and are finally seeing HIS Love interspersed throughout these chapters. HIS Plan has been enveloped in the mysteries contained therein and has been put in plain sight for men to overlook due to their carnal nature. The Truth is obvious once you see it and the counterfeit path is easy to detect once you know the genuine.
The Second Beast
January 30th, 2015The first beast came from the sea of humanity, then arose a second beast from the earth:
Revelation 13:11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.
12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
The “earth” represents the mind, will, and emotion (soul) whereas the “sea” represents the flesh. The first beast arises out of our carnal nature and draws us down the path of death. If the first beast isn’t enough to deal with, now the second beast comes onto the scene. Both represent “anti-Christ” but neither are actually described in that fashion. I have read many books, listened to many evangelists, and watched several programs describing the antichrist. It is interesting to find that only the Beloved Disciple John mentions the term “Antichrist” in his epistles. The term is not found elsewhere:
1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.
23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
1 John 4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,
3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
2 John 1:7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
There you have it, the four times this term is mentioned in Scripture yet thousands of sermons have exalted this term to be “god-like”. The term simply means “in opposition to Christ”. In 1 John, the fourth chapter, we see where Love is explicitly attached to being born of FATHER and knowing FATHER:
1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
If the writer of this Epistle and also the book of Revelation makes such an emphatic statement about the importance of Love, we must not let the second beast convince us otherwise. The mind wants to be in control by using logic to place our spirit into submission. When this occurs we have difficulty in hearing FATHER. The noise created by the mind and the external will drown out our ability to hear that “still small Voice”.
The antichrist is not a specific world leader although many of them have attempted to move our focus away from Jesus Christ and FATHER. Many have exalted themselves above Christ but nonetheless they are not THE antichrist. The antichrist is any spiritual attempt to redirect us away from Christ in any form or fashion. The target includes your flesh and your mind. I have seen men whose Love waxed cold and began to dilute the power of Christ in their thinking by using derivative logic as a basis of their position. They are accessing the world’s wisdom, not FATHER’S. I am amazed that men can’t even look up at the stars and planets and realize the flaws in their logic! It is tragic to see those who once had Love in their hearts grow cold and submit to their earthly mind. When men submit to worldly thinking of others they end up on the path toward destruction:
Isaiah 3:12 “As for My people, children (flesh) are their oppressors,
And women (soul) rule over them.
O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err,
And destroy the way of your paths.”
By allowing the mind to deceive you into believing the antichrist is some world leader, you will not deal with the true source of the problem… your soul! Instead of being led by THE SPIRIT, you will be led by the soul- the mind, will, and emotions. Your mind needs to serve you, not the reverse. It is okay to build up your mind but not at the expense of your spirit. This is why that the highly intelligent tend to have a difficult time in receiving Christ in their hearts. Their logic convinces them otherwise. We are not to be ignorant or uninformed of the devices and deception of the spirit of antichrist which motivates the second beast:.
1 Peter 1:13 Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
14 as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance;
15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct,
16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”
If FATHER says we can be holy… then we can be holy. There is nothing the second beast can do about that!
Overcoming the Opposition
January 29th, 2015Revelation 13: 9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
10 He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
The carnal man put us into captivity and has had us on the path to death and destruction. That “man” must be placed in captivity and kept from any further impact on our lives. Our carnal man must be “killed” with the sword of THE SPIRIT. When that happens, the captives are set free. Jesus expressed it in Luke 4:18-19:
“The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.”
Once we receive the revelation of Love, the beast in us makes war. You can be sure anytime you receive a major revelation from FATHER, it will be challenged right away. If you are mature, you will not be moved by the challenge but those of lesser degrees of maturity will suffer accordingly. The carnal man will make sure of that. This is when we must continue to press in and not allow guilt or past failures to dissuade us from the revelation. We must not let our mind rationalize away the precious Truth being revealed to us. It takes patience and faith to hold on to a fresh revelation that goes against the current doctrine being preached by man. We must not put FATHER in a perceived box. We must think back when past, lower revelations were replaced by greater ones. As we embrace higher laws, we are no longer subject to the lower laws. You can either walk, ride in a car, or take an airplane to a distant location based on your revelation. The choice lies with you. I have faith that the law of aerodynamics will work every time I board an airplane because I trust in FATHER’S ability to keep that law in place and operational.
We are told to have patience as the carnal man is being “killed”. We must persevere as the process is being completed and we must not be denied the anticipated outcome. James chapter 1 reminds us:
2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials,
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
Many men grumble when things don’t go their way. Instead, we should count it all joy! If we understand the necessity of the process then we will truly see the joy of having our preparation include such challenges and tests. The tests are temporary in nature and we will gain a greater appreciation for them after the fact. We will then be perfect and complete in those areas.
At a corporate level, all of creation is waiting to be set free. Without the opposition, how could we be fully grateful for all that FATHER has done. Opposition provides a contrast to the standard of Truth. Without an enemy how can Love be fully tested? Without the carnal man how can patience and faith be perfected? As I write these Truths I know my own tests and trials have attempted to convince me from pressing on with these writings. It would be easy to lay in bed or be predisposed with some “safe” activity satisfying the carnal man’s wishes but I press on and hope those who share this path continue on it with me. It is my earnest desire that this revelation of Love break forth mightily in all us as we take on FATHER’S Character and operate fully in our callings in a pureness only seen in Christ! As we resist the devil, he will flee from us. This resistance requires faith and patience.
The mysteries contained in this Fifth Gospel will be opened to those who will persevere beyond the captivity of the carnal man. Once set free, we are free indeed. Martin Paulat had a vision of me in a jail cell with two adjoining sides being of brick and the other sides had bars with no apparent door. I paced back and forth looking for a door but saw none. Suddenly, a door appeared and I was able to immediately open it and depart from captivity. (End of vision) I believe this vision is now being fulfilled. The door has always been there… before the foundation of the world, I simply could not see it until now. It is the Open Door that no man can shut and it is opened by the Key of David which I believe to be the revelation of Love. We will overcome all opposition with Love being our motivation.
Before the Foundation
January 28th, 2015Revelation 13:8 And ALL who dwell on the EARTH shall worship him, Whose NAME has not Been written from the FOUNDATION of the World in the SCROLL of the LIFE Of THAT LAMB who Was KILLED. See: http://www.a2z.org/wtarchive/docs/1864_Emphatic_Diaglott.pdf
This translation of verse 8 presents a distinctly different translation that suggests those whose names ARE written in the Book of Life were there before the foundation of the world. This is consistent with Job 38 when FATHER was challenging Job’s understanding and knowledge:
4 “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Tell Me, if you have understanding.
5 Who determined its measurements?
Surely you know!
Or who stretched the line upon it?
6 To what were its foundations fastened?
Or who laid its cornerstone,
7 When the morning stars sang together,
And all the sons of God shouted for joy?
The Sons are those who do not worship the beast or this world system. Jesus referred to them as “the sheep” in Matthew 25:
31 “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.
32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.
33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
Our minds have difficulty in grasping the concept of existence prior to the womb yet this is one of the mysteries our spirit will grasp as we open our eyes to the Book of Life and it originating before the foundation of the world. FATHER clearly intended to prepare the kingdom for our inheritance with us expressly in HIS Mind and intent. Paul spoke of this truth in Ephesians 1:
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love (agape),
5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,
6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
I am convinced that the revelation of the Sons cannot be separated from the revelation of Love. The revelation of Love comes into its fullness in the final book of the Bible… by design. It is hidden for those Sons to search out and once again embrace as they are being fully prepared and matured into perfection for the purpose established before the foundation of the world. The current world system will disintegrate before our very eyes as the ministry of the Sons is fulfilled. The restoration of all mankind will result as Christ and HIs Body minister Life to all. This ministry will be irresistible and men will be drawn unto Christ resulting in every knee bowing and every tongue confessing Jesus Christ is LORD. In Jesus’ prayer to FATHER in John 17, He mentions this revelation “before the foundation”:
24 “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.
As we move forward in this revelation of FATHER’S Divine Intent, we will be able to behold, see, and awaken to HIS Glory. We are to be with Him in Heavenly Places, caught up by FATHER’S perfect Plan, Will, and purpose. We will be awakened to the fact that we truly were with HIM before the foundation of the world. Think about it, dwell on it, embrace it if you can. FATHER’S Divine Intent precedes manifestation and that hold true for us as well as the rest of the universe.
Our Chapter in the Book of Life
January 27th, 2015Psalm 40:
7 Then I said, “Behold, I come;
In the scroll of the book it is written of me.
8 I delight to do Your will, O my God,
And Your law is within my heart.”
FATHER knew us before HE formed us in the womb and we shouted for joy when the morning stars sang together. Each of us are in one of two books: the Book of Life or the Book of death. Men who follow the Adamic nature are found in the second book and are among those who worship the beast. Adam was formed from the dust of the earth and gave up his relationship with FATHER and took on the corruptible nature. He represents the earth dwellers.
The Book of Life of the Lamb contains all of those who have put on the incorruptible through the Blood of Jesus Christ. Our nature is represented by by our name. Once our nature has changed, FATHER gives us a new name and we become a chapter in the Book of Life of the Lamb. Jacob was a great example of taking on a new name once his nature was changed:
Genesis 25:24 So when her (Rebekah) days were fulfilled for her to give birth, indeed there were twins in her womb.
25 And the first came out red. He was like a hairy garment all over; so they called his name Esau.
26 Afterward his brother came out, and his hand took hold of Esau’s heel; so his name was called Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
Jacob’s name means supplanter, manipulator, negotiator, schemer, strategist, one who overreaches. It is clear that Jacob’s trust was not in FATHER but rather it was in himself. It was his nature as he came out of the womb. Could he ever change? Sure. Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed because his brother Esau was out to get revenge. It was due to Jacob’s successful scheming to get the blessing from Isaac, true to his nature. But then something happened, he had an encounter with the messenger of THE LORD in Genesis 32:
24 Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the breaking of day.
25 Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob’s hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him.
26 And He said, “Let Me go, for the day breaks.” But he said, “I will not let You go unless You bless me!”
27 So He said to him, “What is your name?” He said, “Jacob.”
28 And He said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
Jacob had a change in nature once he encountered the FACE of GOD. His new nature means “Prince with GOD”, a far cry from his previous nature. This brings up an important point- Is your time better spent seeking FATHER’S Face or seeking signs or watching the calendar for some event to occur which could bring forth the manifestation of the Sons? I would suggest that seeking FATHER’S Face will bring forth your manifestation! Just as Jacob’s nature changed, our nature will also change and each of us will receive a new name reflecting our new nature as we put on the incorruptible. Paul speaks of this in 1st Corinthians chapter 15:
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed—
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
Could the mystery be that we are asleep until our eyes are opened and awakened to the Kingdom of GOD? Notice that Jesus said “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation.” Doesn’t this refer that those who are asleep are the ones who are tempted by their flesh? We all assumed that Paul was speaking of those who had physically died, referring to them as being asleep but the disciples were asleep at the Mount of Transfiguration and then awoke to Jesus in His glorified state. Their eyes had been opened. We must set aside past doctrines and look at the Word from a fresh view with our eyes fully open.
Each of us can have a nature change. Jacob, the disciples, and most of all Paul had a nature change when they came face to face with the Presence of FATHER through His Son. After all, Jesus is HIS manifestation in the flesh. Let us each become chapters in the Book of Life and let not the carnal man allow our name to be blotted out of that book. Our callings are written in the Book and FATHER has a full and complete record of all aspects of the nature we have been chosen to receive. This Book of Life existed before the oldest books of the Bible were written. Moses spoke of this Book when he talked to Father about the sin of the children in the camp.
Our chapter is being walked out right now. Some who were called allowed their chapter to be blotted out. Those who are chosen have their place in this Book of Life and let each of us fulfill the callings ordained in the Book before we were formed in the womb. Let us shout for joy!
Which Book are You in?
January 26th, 2015Genesis 5:1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;
There are two basic books or records of the generations mentioned in the Bible: The book of Adam (death) and the book of Jesus Christ (life). In Genesis chapter 5 the book of death is introduced. After Adam had fallen, all of his generations were given a death sentence. Because of the initial anointing on his life, it took many years for death to overtake him and the initial generations thereafter. It is clear that life was difficult to overcome and speaks to the impact of FATHER’S life-giving SPIRIT on the physical. The generations of Adam continue down this path of death to this very day. Those who are written in this book are the ones who worship the beast:
Revelation 13:8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
The verse clarifies the fact that there are two basic books contrasting those who worship the beast versus those who don’t. Those written in the Lamb’s Book of Life will not worship the beast or follow after it. The second book is first revealed in Matthew chapter 1:
Matthew 1:1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
The 17th verse reveals that there are forty-two generations from Abraham to Christ. We are the 42nd generation and represent the Body of Christ. Likewise there were 41 moves in the wilderness and the 42nd move was crossing over into the Promised Land. What a beautiful picture of victory over the beast system.
Can your name be transferred from one book to another? Absolutely! FATHER has a removal and restoration process. You began as a vessel of dishonor for all have fallen short of the Glory of GOD and Jesus died for the ungodly which included all of us. However you can become a vessel of honor and have your name added to the Lamb’s Book of Life.
Your name can be blotted out of the Book of Life. We find this occurring in Exodus 32:
33 And the LORD said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book. 34 Now therefore, go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, My Angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I visit for punishment, I will visit punishment upon them for their sin.”
35 So the LORD plagued the people because of what they did with the calf which Aaron made.
These people were called to HIS specific purpose and those who worshipped the golden calf were removed from HIS book. Jesus Himself spoke of this potential removal from His Book as we saw earlier in Revelation chapter 3:
5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
Does this mean you will lose your salvation? No, it means you will not fulfill the calling and mission of the overcomer, the first squadron to be caught up for HIS Purpose to minister Life to all mankind. You can individually be placed in another group thus receiving your reward at a different time. Remember, the woman (church) is sustained in the wilderness whereas the Sons are caught up to Heaven. We are not to sit idly by assuming that we are in the Book of Life just because the Sonship revelation was revealed to us. You could easily be an observer to Christ’s mighty works rather than a participant. It depends on your priority and willingness to proceed to Spiritual maturity, setting aside the distractions of the world.
Jesus made it quite plain in Matthew 7:
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’
23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
I remind you that there is a simplicity of following Christ. Men would have you believe that His Way is complex and intricate and only those of superior intelligence will be able to walk the path. I say to you that those who Love HIM and take on HIS Character will overcome all. We must know HIM and HIS Love and forsake lawlessness. As we become like Him, lawlessness will cease. We will no longer do things for personal gain but instead will take on a life of service to others. We will have a heart to serve mankind in whatever capacity our calling requires. We don’t need to understand the meaning of every number or every name in the Bible. Yes it is magnificent to discover how glorious FATHER’S Word comes together in a seamless manner interweaving the various facets of numbers, names, types, and shadows together. But let us return to the simplicity of Love so that we not be distracted by anything that takes our eyes off of the high calling.
Those who are written in the Book of Live will not worship the beast and it is clear to the beast which group you are in. You are not to be intimidated by the beast but you are to overcome it by the Blood of the Lamb. You will not fear death because it has lost its sting. You will not fear man because “greater is HE that is in you than he that is in the world”. If GOD be for us, who can be against us? When you are challenged, you will use the Words given by HIM whom you trust, “It is written”. As you fully embrace HIS Love resulting in fully trusting IN HIM, you will not have your name blotted out of the Book of Life for you are qualified as an overcomer.
