First Fruits, Gathering and the Final Harvest.
These harvests are like creation and are laid out naturally to fit times and seasons. What happens with creation, are just shadows of what happens in the Spirit. That all of Old Testament Scripture does just that. Christ said He only spoke to people in parables. Without a parable spake He not to the people. So that all the way through the Law and The Prophets, and up through the birth of Christ and through the Gospels until Christ was taken up. These were all just teachings through parables (looks like, sounds like) of things pertaining to “The Kingdom of God”. As Christ said, 25 These things have I spoken to you in parables: but the time cometh, when I shall no longer speak to you in proverbs, but I shall shew you the Father plainly
Welcome to The New Covenant and to “The Kingdom of God at hand”, plain and clear.
So that it is us who are able to decipher the parables and turn them into New Testament realities where they have their fulfillment in the New Covenant era, that left the Jews and at the last feast in the upper room where they were assembled as one and instructed to go and preach to all the world and Gentile nations. Amen! Time of the Gentiles with the new the last and the final “New Covenant”.
We are those whom He speaks plainly to, and just to set the Eternal truths in context, the New Covenant era are the first-fruits of the cross.
This is The New Will and Testament about the distribution of the deceased mans goods to the heirs starting then. That we are heirs and joint heirs of the things of Christ in this way, apart from the dillusional seekers for a second coming. Christ death is our cross-over point into Eternal life. On this way “The Kingdom of God is at hand.” Amen!
To also mean that the four Gospel accounts are technically associated with the end of the Old Covenant era too. That the new started with the Crucifixion, the blood shed, and the death of Christ as our needed one time sacrifice and savior of the world, past present and future and all time.
That people only sin because they were born sinners, at least until their Adamic predisposition gets reversed from fallen to be raised up “in Christ” through faith in His name. His name means “Savior”. This is what it means to be born again.
That as Adam fell in understanding, for there were no broken bones or bleeding. That we who are of the resurrection are raised back up in understanding in the same place and way it happened, in our thinking. Because the mind is where the fall took place, so too the resurrection.
To make the point that the New Covenant to all the Gentile nations era started with the disciples who became Apostles by receiving the Holy Spirit to become the first fruits. They were told NOT to leave that Old Jerusalem “until you received the promise of the Holy Spirit of what you had heard from Me”, were the words of Christ to them.
It was the disciples not yet Apostles, were in the upper room behind closed doors and experienced the swoosh of the Holy Spirit, to “come down and to remain upon them” and they started speaking in tongues from every language to signify that the Law era was over and the time of the Gentiles, to be “from every tribe language and tongue”. The New Covenant harvest time was in full swing. That even the Jews could qualify, but ONLY as just another nation in the collection of the “Gentile nations”. Their Old Covenant privileges expired as being the Law. As a matter of fact they were told of that Jerusalem, that there would not be one stone left upon another that shall not be cast down.”
So what started in that Jerusalem in the upper room was that an exchange took place. That “old things having passed away, behold all things have become New and all things are from God. Hence “The Kingdom of God is at hand.” Amen
They were born again and borne from above and born of the Spirit during that time. This is the Spirit of Him who said “I will never leave you or forsake you.” And ‘Lo I am with you throughout the ages even to the end” to mean He is here for us today in the same way as “at hand” for them. Who also said “I go to the Father and you see Me again no more.” At least in a carnal way. That just as Christ said “those who have seen Me have seen the Father”. He was not talking about carnal features but words and behaviors. For this Christ said “I and the Father are one”. Indistinguishable One from the Other. Even as Christ said, those who have seen Me has seen the Father, speaking of His Eternal self and not the flesh He became on our behalf, for us in turn to put on His body of truths….
To mean one and the same, indistinguishable one from another.
That just as Christ had said “I will never leave you or forsake you.” It is in the person of Christs Holy Spirit, of spirit and truth and the Kingdom at hand, that we are never left or forsaken because of these invisible truths that made the heavens and earth. For if there is any forsaking taking place it is by those who are earth bound (let that sink in. submitting to terms and conditions to whom?) We who are “in Christ” are in Him in the way He was before”The Word become flesh and dwelt among us”. And as He calls us to Himself, we have to use the tools given to us to go to Him whose original construct is not the flesh. For this reason we had to be born again. That “flesh and blood does not inherit the Kingdom.” But the re-spirited mind of faith does and it does so just as succinctly, precisely and quickly as when Adam fell. In the proverbial blink of the eye, is how we are born again and borne of the spirit.
This is why Christ said that from that time on, that “The Kingdom of God is at hand.” To mean within reach in a proverbial sense. Not to mean it is not real, but that it is more real then the flesh because all flesh returns to dust, while those who are born from above as being born again and borne by the spirit, can come and go at will. Even as scripture says that “The wind blows where it wishes. You can hear the sound of it but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the spirit.” So as not to confuse or try to mix flesh and spirit together. And so we don’t.
With these truths laid out as such, and with the book of the Revelation, to have it open, close and sealed with this next quotes, insure for us that, all of what has been written has been expired and played out to a tee. All of the book of The Revelation has been expired with the exception of Satan’s final deception that we are likely in today.
And whereas modern day Christians try to use the Book of “The Revelation” as a play book of things yet to come that they call end times. This is the end times “dillusion “with all lying signs and wonders, if possible to deceive the Elect”, that Jesus needs to reappear as in the days of old. This is being exploited and played out by Satan, by him taking scripture out of context by re-using expired prophecies as though Jesus has a second coming for people to look forward to.
But go Look! The phrase “Second Coming is not found once in scripture. You have to deny the saving for us from the Christ the Savior as evidenced at the cross, to impose another coming as if His cross was insufficient to reverse the fall of Adam, of which we opened up with the fall as just having to do with the spirit of the mind. For there was no blood shed broken bones at the fall just a misconstrued way of thinking, as The Second Coming Savior seekers suppose.. And by them doing so, they set themselves in danger to Christs previous threats of damnation for those who “add to or take away from the prophecies of this book” as we can read and understand from the opening and closing portions of the last book in the canon of scripture, but lets read this warning from 2 Peter first who wrote “18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh (as those who want to save their flesh) and through much wantonness those who had clean escaped from those who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption; for by whom a man is overcome, by the same is he brought into bondage. 20 For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again (become) entangled therein to be overcome (again), the latter end is worse with them than in the beginning. 21 For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness (through the saving of the cross), than, after they had known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 22 But it has happened unto them according to the true proverb: “The dog turns to his own vomit again,” and, “the sow that was washed, to her wallowing in the mire.” So too these go back to scripture over and over for another dose of saving so as to keep Christ on the cross, and in doing so never receive the finished works of Christ who said at the cross “it is finished”, but you keep Him there for confessions sake?
And as far as the last book in the canon of Scripture, the book opens with “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly (quickly and immediately) come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: 2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. 3 Blessed are they that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep (all) those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
To mean within reach , being played out, happening and at hand, back when it was written. Showing us that what many call prophecy is really just expired History, as evidenced by the term “at hand”. That the Book of The Revelation opens with the events as happening to them as we just quoted, to then have the Book of the Revelation close similarly saying;
So then it is the first is last and the last is first in the harvest because we have had to brush off the dust of time and reassemble these truths in order for us to resemble the first fruit harvest, by us returning to “that which is from the beginning” and not an end time thing at all. This is the gospel of truth which is quite different than the prominent “delusion with all lying signs and wonders”. The “delusion” is a hybrid word from illusion and dilute. It is the dilution of truth through time by translations that creates the delusion. But it is Gods Word and Gods Holy Spirit in us that still prev-ales. Gods words are eternally true fro us who have woken up from the Adamic sleep….
