Eye Witnesses of His Majesty.

There are those who have seen Christ after His death and resurrection, in the prescribed way that the Apostles had seen Him.

From 2nd Peter 1.16-21.  For we have NOT followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and the coming of our Lord and Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of (Him in) His majesty. 17 For He received from God the Father, honour and glory (as something obtained after having delt His enemies their final blow), when there came such a VOICE to Him from the most excellent Glory (saying), This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased (For a job well done). 18 And this voice which came from Heaven we heard, when we were with Him on the Holy Mount. 19 (however since then) We (even today) have a more sure word of prophecy (than what we’ve just read about them); for it is good for you to take heed to it, as you would like with a light that shines in a dark place (to mean our hearts), until that day dawns (in that day you shall surely live unlike Adam died), and the day star arise in your hearts (in a spiritual way and not physically): 20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any human endeavor. 21 For prophecy did not come in old time by the will of men: but by holy men of God spake (or wrote) as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

And for the first hand encounter we go to Matthew 16.  27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory (and fullness) of his Father with His angels; and then He shall reward every one according to their works. 28 Verily I say to you today, That there are some standing here (today), who shall not experience (their own) death, before they see the Son of man coming in His kingdom (in great glory and power as the second coming seekers suppose it is later). 17 And after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart from the others, 2 And He became transfigured before them: and His face did shine as (brighter than) the sun (like Paul saw), and His raiment was white as the (whitest) light. 3 And, behold, there appeared to them Moses (of the Law) and Elias (of The Prophets) talking with Jesus. 4 Then Peter said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if you want, let us (as they did of old) make here three tabernacles; one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah. 5 And while Peter yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice (from the Heavenly Glory came) out of the cloud, which said, This is My Beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye Him (as if to pass on to Him the keys of the Kingdom). 6 And when the disciples heard it, they (all) fell on their faces, and (they all) were sore afraid. 7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. 8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw nobody else, save Jesus (in His pre incarnate Glory of Spirit and Truth). 

And then from Saul to become Paul who similarly experienced a humanly indescribable light by saying in” Acts 26: 13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way (as if to stop Saul in his tracks) a light from heaven, above the brightness greater than the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me (saw Him too). 14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard aHis voice speaking to me, and said in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me ? Isn’t it hard for you to kick against the pricks? 15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus (in His form  before and after His flesh and the cross and resurrection, and said) whom you are persecuting (meaning His body are His believers). 16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee (as a Bright Light) for this purpose, to make thee a minister of, and a witness to both of these things,  in which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will (yet) appear (to reveal) unto thee; 17 (I will) deliver thee from these people (the Jews), and onto the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee (for they will hear Me), 18 To open their eyes, and to turn the Gentiles from darkness to light, and (to turn them) from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and an inheritance among those who have become sanctified by faith (like this that is/ in Me.

All these accounts are of the The Blessed One and Savior who still visits us today in the same ways for the same reasons and goals as we’ve just displayed!

This is “The Kingdom of God at hand” that  the first Apostles of Christ who were sent forth to “the ends of the Earth and the ends of the age preaching and teaching all that I have commanded you!”

That “9  Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of (un-redeemed) man, the things that God has prepared for they that love him. 10 But God has (past tense) revealed them to us by His Spirit: for the Spirit searchs all things, yea, even the deep (and guarded secret) things of God.

So then, this is “the renewal of the Spirit of the mind, which is how and where Adam fell.”

And may we say that “this voice that came out from the cloud from Heaven”, is still the same voice for us today, which is also the same cloud that spoke to Moses all along the “wilderness wanderings” as we read here “21 And the Lord went before them in a pillar of a cloud by day, to lead them the way; and by a pillar of fire by night, 22 And He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people. This is a physical picture of our invisible sanctification and defines what it means to be on Christ.

And again here “15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount. 16 And the glory of the YHVH abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.

And again “9 And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle (MEANING THE COVENANT, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the YHVH talked with Moses. 10 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up (think resurrection here) and worshipped, every man in his tent door.

And from Numbers “16 So it was always: the cloud covered the tabernacle by day, and the appearance of fire (the tabernacle) by night. 17 And when the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that the children of Israel journeyed (with it): and in the place where the cloud abode, there the children of Israel pitched their tents. 18 And at the commandment of YHVH, the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of YHVH they pitched (their tents): And as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their tents. 19 And when the cloud stayed long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of YHVH, and journeyed not. 20 And so it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle; according to the commandment of YHVH they abode in their tents, and according to the commandment of YHVH they journeyed. 21 And so it was, when the cloud abode from even unto the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed: whether it was by day or by night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed. 22 Or whether it were two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle, remaining thereon, the children of Israel abode in their tents, and journeyed not: but when the cloud was taken up, they journeyed.

That not only did Moses encounter The Godhead Body in the cloud, in this way, but those whom he represented experienced The same Heavenly Glory in a cloud as well, up until and to include the Israelite’s in the wilderness who told Moses, “you speak to Him” meaning the voice from the cloud. That those “children” many of them adult and elderly, refused to grow up and to accept the invitation into the invisible realm of the Holy Spirit to relate to The Father on a one to one basis! And as many more do again today! That again today we say “Today is the day of (this kind of) salvation.” And “see that you do not refuse Him who speaks from Heaven!” And “harden not your hearts as they did in the day of the rebellion in wilderness where I said to them you are a wicked and adulterous generation.”

Which was conveyed to the whole genome to mean many generations up until Christ, and not just another wayward and disobedient generation.

For it was NOT until the departure of Christ back into the cloud with The Father, and until He was seen after His death and resurrection, and in the opener of The Book of the Acts of when the disciples who became Apostles by seeing Christ after the resurrection in this way we also call “The Cloud”, because their is no form when we see Him either.

The title Apostle is a title they could’ve received only AFTER they had seen and encountered Christ as who He was BEFORE and AFTER His carnal ocurrence, in His resurrected form to “That which was from the beginning” in and with the same cloud as from the beginning of time. That Christ is the same yesterday today and forever.” To mean when He put on a flesh robe such as we have, yet He remained totally and completely who He already was and who He forever would be.

For we read here the account from The Book of Acts, chapter 1.-11 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, 2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments unto the apostles whom He had chosen: 3 To whom also He shewed Himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking (to them) of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God (at hand or within reach and graspable): 4 And, being assembled together with them, (as Head and Chief Cornerstone of His body of which they are living stones). He commanded them them not to depart from (that) Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith He, ye have heard of me. (Meaning the promise of the coming of the Holy Spirit) 5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now. 6 When they therefore were assembled together, they asked of Him, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom (not to the Jews but) to Israel? 7 And He said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in his own power. 8 But (what I will tell you now that the Law era has expired and the New and Living way to The Father is available, is that) ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Spirit has come upon you: and (then) ye shall become witnesses unto me (starting) in (that expired) Jerusalem, then in all Judah, then into Samaria, and on to the uttermost corners of the earth. 9 And when He had spoken these things, while the disciples beheld Him (in this way as you see or perceive today too), He was taken (back) up; and a cloud (or foggy way of thinking) received him out of their sight. 10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11 Who also said, Ye men of Galilee (of the Gentiles), why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which was taken up from you into heaven, will also come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven.

Which would mean by The Cloud who is also called the Holy Spirit as we read from (Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:

This was because He appeared first after the cross in the Holy Spirit, and there were no inferences to  a physicality or any carnal craft of any sort to assist Christ going up into Heaven but of the cloud that received Him out of their sight. That the cloud was their foggy thinking.

And so we can accept  Him like this again in our day too! That “flesh and bone does not inherit the Kingdom, but the re-spirited mind of faith does.” And that a “bright light” is an epiphany, an unveiling a revelation and an awakening as a bright light in your understanding. Of which epiphany is also translated as “a bright light” too, to jump start your faith into the invisible “for man has not seen nor heard the things that God has for those who love Him. But he reveals them to us by His Holy Spirit. Yea even the deep things of God”. Of which we still receive Christ like that today too because “Today is (still) the day of Salvation.”

And Jesus said to His disciples “those who have seen Me have seen The Father”. To mean who Jesus was before “He put on the flesh”, and who He was when He put it off too. Who also said “if they receive you they receive Me!” This is the Gospel! If you are able to receive this message from The Cloud and Spirit of God we still abide in and associate with.

Unless you prefer the counterfeit cloud and ” the spirit of the prince of the power of the air that works for the sons of disobedience”. To mean the inner-net that is an under net, that is an in-between net, a net of detainment for capture, if you don’t get out! That “Satan has desired to sift you as wheat” by offering you contending powers from inner-net service providers. “Provider” sparks the idea of benevolence, showing us who the competitors are of the provisions we get from the Gospel.

And an internet infers that there is an upper and an outer above the  inner. So that those from the upper,outer,eternal, have these insights and oversights and revelations as products of us being “seated together in Heavenly places in Christ, far above all principles and powers and wicked rulers of the age.

That their is a counterfeit cloud under God as an interceptor with contending providers to those who like with Moses, thought it to be an arduous task to relate to God the Father with the simplicity of spoken words. No, they’d rather choose mediums (media) with key prompts instead.

To which we say “Woe! Woe! Woe! To the wayward souls who appease their fallen nature to sooth the blank spots in there souls reserved for Gods Word and Holy Spirit, for them to in turn adulterate their soul and Spirit with other providers and masters to submit to. Remember the commandments? “Tho shall not have any gods before Me for I am a jealous God visiting the inequity of the fathers to the third generation to those who forsake Me?

You will get what you’ve paid for and what you’ve subscribed to with your many inner-net gods saviors and services. And with each new submission or subscription, you weaken your ability to get out of that internet trap of souls who many have bowed and submitted to be in servitude to them in exchange for a little entertainment.

As for us who’ve completed our vows of submission to one? The Kingdom of God is at hand. To mean within reach and attainable and wraps around us like a robe, or like  “Josephs coat of many colors. Which is a picture of being fully sanctified, covered, protected and provided for, in Christ  and in the same way the parable of Noah’s Ark protected all who were in that Ark of the Covenant. We are in our Ark of our covenant as being in Christ!

He is our Ark and our safety. That “no weapon formed against us shall prosper” any more than the waves of the storm with Noah. That “we are complete in Him who is head over all powers and principalities in Heavenly places in Christ” as is evidenced by these incites. He is our Ark in His Covenant. The same as being “in Christ” as opposed to being in and of the world. Amen!

His covenant is His Word. His Word is His Son. He who has the Son (in this way) has life. Those who do not have the Son in this way have not life”,And must go back to the beginning of the Gospel and start over with being washed. Because of false gospels. 17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. 18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the (needs and) lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from those who live in error. 19 While they were promised liberty, they themselves became servants of corruption (as evidenced by the carnal products they promote and use): for of whom if a person is overcome by the (fake powers), of the same they are brought in bondage. 20 For if after they have escaped from the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the (the promises and provisions of our) Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and are again entangled therein (again), and overcome, the latter end (of them) is worse with them than the beginning. 21 For it had been better for them not to have (ever heard of or) known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, and turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. 22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb. That as the dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to (go back to) her wallowing in the mire.

But fortunately for ALL us at the time of this writing; Today is still the day of Salvation”. Tomorrow may not be.  Believe and receive the gospel for the time is truly short. Again, (come out from among them and be ye separate. Then I will receive you and you shall be My sons and daughters. Amen!

The Kingdom of God is still at hand! Do not turn from the gift giver. Amen!

The Prophecy of The Foal of a Colt, has to do with a changing of time to”The Time of The Gentiles” saying;

Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine Elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon Him: He shall bring forth judgment (and justice) to the Gentiles.

And from Zechariah 9.9 ““Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; He is just and having salvation,(of which they rejected and were condemned til “not one stone was left upon another ” who came Lowly and riding on a donkey, A colt, the foal of a donkey.

Then it became “The Time of The Gentiles” because that is what the colt symbolized with the change of covenants.

That the “Old Covenant that was given to Moses to last up until the coming of Christ who instituted the New Will and Testament” as having to do with the distribution of the deceased mans goods.

For you see that the Old Covenant was a temporary band-aid to hold them over until the Coming of Christ called “The Lamb of God who takes away the Sin of the world” (not just jews), as “The New and Living Way To The Father”. And it was all the rituals associated with the Old Covenant that taught them as “children” a title given to them in the wilderness wanderings nearly 1200 times. By which it anticipated the coming of Christ as the bearer of the New Covenant. That He went to the cross for the sins of all of humanity, whether they accepted the pardon or not. However everyone has to make their own choice to accept…

1.The English words gentle, gentile, and genteel all derive from the Latin gentilis, meaning “of the same family or clan,” which comes from the root of gens (“race, clan or generations”). Gentle (from) Gentile is a later, religious sensel of the Latin word, referring to mean “all the nations” which is SCRIPTIARAL use for the the term Gentiles, and Gentiles means people from ALL Nations.

Except one, the Jews

2.That “Gentiles” means non-Jews, non-Israelites, (Gentiles). More broadly, the term refers to ALL the nations of the world that are NOT Jewish” end quote.

So simply put, Gentile means any nationality but Jew according to the Etymology of the term Gentiles as just displayed. And the message to “All the Nations all started with the fulfillment and expiration with the Jewish Old Covenant promises and prophecy’s explaining how to know when the Old Covenant had become old, and when the New Will and Testament became New, as having to with when the distribution to the Heirs would happen.

We call this Prophecy. And the coming verses from The Old Covenant are these:

Genesis 49. 9.9 And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days. (Most people think of last days as meaning a second coming Jesus after a church age. Which would negate this whole prophecy we are now relating from Christ only incarnation in the flesh. But here He continued on and said, “2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye (12) sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father 8 Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father’s children shall bow down before thee. 9 Judah is a lion’s whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up? 10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be. 11 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass’s colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes:

And again from the Old Covenant with Zechariah of this same prophecy at the end as the last of all the Prophets also saying “9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. 10 And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.

And for the New Will and Testaments fulfillment of those prophecies, we have this from John “12 On the next day many people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, 13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord. 14 And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written, 15 Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass’s colt. 16 These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.

Putting On Christ, One Revelation At A Time.

We have the scripture that says “When we see Him as He is, we shall be Like Him” as pertaining to Jesus Christ. But that “when we See Him as He is to become like Him”? Well for us, first He is word, He is Gods Word. John 1.1 “In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and the Word was with God. He was in the beginning with God.” Then later, for the expiration of the Old Covenant it says “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” And in Him we beheld the Glory of the Father who is in the Son as are we. That we are “in Christ” in this way.

So, That we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the Glory of the Lord, are being transfigured into His (self) same image from the glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of God.  This is the fruit of The New Testament.

Did you get that? “From the Glory to the Glory as by the Spirit”? Referring to our invisible part. That while Christ was in His body of the flesh, He exsuded the Glory of God who was in Him as He also said “I and the Father are one” and “those that have seen Me have seen the Father.” So this this could happen to us too because “we are complete in Him who is head over all principalities and powers.” Wow!

So that to put off the body is NOT so much the flesh body as many suppose, but that we put off an old way of thinking that Gods things need to be visible with the carnal senses for us to have and to use, but NO! For even Jesus was in the flesh as a son of man and was “The Son of God” at the same time to show us how we are too! It is possible, but moreso it is expected of us “work out your own salvation.” To “walk in the spirit and you shall not fulfill the lusts of the flesh.”

And that is the point! Gods Son is the measure and stature and our likeness of what we become in the here and NOW as we put on Christ! This is what it means that “The Kingdom of God is at hand!” These are the fruits of the Spirit and the fruits of our labor.

And because we follow, like and subscribe to Him. Even as He said “Follow Me that where I am you may be also”. And so we do. And not to mean some 2000 plus years later as many suppose.

These are Kingdom Now principles. Didn’t He tell us to go and announce that “The Kingdom of God is at hand??

So then it us becoming a new body of beliefs free from doubts and fears that are antagonistic to The Holy Spirit. That the doubts, fears must be put off as being carnal and the enemies of God who “fills all and all”.

For even Adam qualified as Gods look alike,, until he fell. But because there were no broken bones or bloodshed when he fell, was because it was just a fallen upside down way of thinking. This is how Adam fell in  perception only, in the spirit of the mind, and why it is in the spirit that we are raised back up.

If this was not so then Jesus could not have been fully man and fully God at the same time. But because He was, we can be too. So this is why we “reach out to grasp ahold of why He laid hold of us”.

Resurrection Explained

And just as a bird falls upside down on its perch so that its views are inverted. In the same way Adam fell and needed to be raised back up only in understanding to be qualified as being raised from the dead, to mean to be unresponsive to “The Kingdom of God at hand”, so as too relate to The Father as Christ did. That “God was in Christ Jesus reconciling the world to Himself and has given us this word of reconciliation.

This is being “Renewing in the spirit of the mind” as a way of thinking. To be raised in understanding and renewed in the spirit and by the Holy Spirit in the mind. This is the resurrection of faith!

The carnal body is the neutral party and the innocent bystander at the accident called The Fall, speaking of Adam. And because mankind all comes from him, all have to go through our carnal struggles to be raised back up with the tools supplies by our Heavenly Father and seen clearly in His Son, who became one of us to show us our way back home. This is the Gospel.

So then for us who believe, confess and receive, receive the Holy Spirit that departed from Adam and Eve when they became ground bound and looking down. Those who do so by faith, in the spirit of your mind where it happened. So that just as succinctly and precise as Adam fell, we are raised back up in faith. We instantly become “Sons and  Daughters of the resurrection!

3 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know (nor recognize) us, because they did not know (nor recognize) Him. 2 Beloved, NOW we are children of God; and it has not yet been (FULLY) revealed what we shall be, but we know that AS He is revealed (more and more), we become (more and more) like Him, for we see Him as He is (Word and Spirit). 3 And everyone who has this hope (desire and thrust) in them purifies themself, just as He is pure. And this purity can only be referencing the Holy Word and Spirit that comes alive in us to restore us to “that which is from the beginning”.

This is us “5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the (invisible) form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and has given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

To mean that we become godly through this process by learning to apply this gift of godliness, and NOT to sit and wait for some second coming dose of another  coming Jesus to do something that maybe He forgot or that the cross didn’t cover, or that He left us orphans?

So then the main point we are talking about is the Word of God is the Son of God and the image of God that we put on starts with WORDS. So let us NOT to be found waiting for a supposed second coming Jesus to save as if the Cross was a failure, which is just a rejection of the saving by faith. That faith is our invisible tool and umbilical cord to the Eternal Godhead. To look for another Jesus, as thought the Cross and these tools are insufficient? That is blasphemy because the verbage “second coming” is not found once in scripture..

For you see “He put on the flesh and dwelt among us” so that we in turn “put off the deeds of the flesh” and put on Word to dwell with Him as being in Him, in Christ who is also in the name Father.

So that when the Son of God was on the cross, He became our reliable cross over point and reference point saying “I will never leave you or forsake you.” This is what that means to be reconciled to God as a restoration to what Adam and Eve had before they departed not physically but their way of thinking fell down.

Even as He also said that “lo I am with you always, even throughout the ages”. So that to wait for another coming Jesus, is really just rejecting the reconciliation give given to Humanity at the cross. That the recovery  and salvation from Adam and Eves wreckage has been rectified, Jesus became the New and Living Way to The Father to those who are in Christ, who is seated at the right hand of the Father waiting for His enemies to become His footstool as you put your enemies  of fear and doubt out of your mind because those are the only enemies left un-defeated and why we are to “work out our own salvation with fear and trembling’. Therefore “Today is the day of Salvation” from the fall in Eden. Tomorrow might not be! And because salvation has to do with the wreckage of the fall, to be “raised back up”. Then when and where do you you ascend to the Father? As Jesus said “I  go to the Father and you see Me again no more” at least according to the flesh. To then have Him say to “Follow Me that where I am you may be also. That where I go you know and the way I go you know.” That we walk according to the Spirit.

Here are some entries from scripture that more clearly instruct us on how to put Him on.

8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, and the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; 10 and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power. 11 In His (circumcision) you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, (and not the flesh itself) by the circumcision of Christ, 12 (So that you being) buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith by the working of God, who raised Christ from the dead.

To mean that we do this one revelation at a time, one after another until it can be said of you too, that “you are complete in Him.”

Keep in mind the parable of the wedding feast and the garments. Of the one who asked “where are your wedding Garments”. To have it said “take this one, bind them and cast them into outer darkness for they knew not the time of their masters coming”. That Jesus comes with the clouds”, to mean your cloudy thinking. Because “when we see Him as He is we will become like Him”, has to do with Him who is called “the word of God”. And however simple or easy that may sound, it still takes a lifetime, so then put ye on the Lord Christ and make no opportunities for the provisions of the flesh. That “flesh and bone does NOT inherit the Kingdom but the re-spirited mind of faith does.

For you see there is coming a time when the wedding feast doors will be closed and for those who did not enter, and were not clothed, to be  found outside the Wedding Chamber we call the Spirit saying “Lord Lord open up to us! Did we not preach you in the streets?” And the Master will say “depart from Me you workers of inequity for I do not know you from where you are at”. Then there will be wailing and gnashing of the teeth.

So lets look at some scripture verses that instruct us loud and clear how to put off the old ways of thinking and be renewed in the spirit of our minds.

11 And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of (our Adamic) slumber; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day (of The Kingdom of God) is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of (ignorance also called) darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. 13 Let us walk properly, as in “That day you shall surely live), not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy. 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

12 For the night is far spent, the day is (still) at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. 13 Let us walk [a]properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy. 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: 22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 this is where you put on the new man which was created just like God, in true righteousness and holiness. 25 Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. 26 “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, 27 nor give [a]place to the devil. 28 Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need. 29 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary [b]edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, [c]clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. 32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

3 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. 5 Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 6 Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience, 7 in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them. 8 But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds, 10 and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him, 11 where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free, but Christ is all and in all. Character of the New Man 12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. 14 But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. 15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

And from 2 Peter 1. 1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have [a]obtained like[b] precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the [c]corruption that is in the world through lust. Fruitful Growth in the Faith 5 But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, 6 to knowledge self-control, to self-control [d]perseverance, to perseverance godliness, 7 to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. 8 For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither [e]barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins. 10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; 11 for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Peter’s Approaching Death 12 For this reason I will not be negligent to remind you always of these things, though you know and are established in the present truth. 13 Yes, I think it is right, as long as I am in this [f]tent, to stir you up by reminding you, 14 knowing that shortly I must [g]put off my tent, just as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me. 15 Moreover I will be careful to ensure that you always have a reminder of these things after my [h]decease. The Trustworthy Prophetic Word 16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” 18 And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain. 19 [i]And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; 20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private [j]interpretation, 21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but [k]holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

Isaih 52 Awake, awake! Put on your strength, O Zion; Put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city! For the uncircumcised and the unclean Shall no longer come to you. 2 Shake yourself from the dust, arise; Sit down, O Jerusalem! Loose yourself from the bonds of your neck, O captive daughter of Zion! 3 For thus says the Lord: “You have sold yourselves for nothing, And you shall be redeemed without money.” 4 For thus says the Lord God: “My people went down at first Into Egypt to [a]dwell there; Then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause. 5 Now therefore, what have I here,” says the Lord, “That My people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them [b]Make them wail,” says the Lord, “And My name is blasphemed continually every day. 6 Therefore My people shall know My name; Therefore they shall know in that day That I am He who speaks: ‘Behold, it is I.’ ” 7 How beautiful upon the mountains Are the feet of him who brings good news, Who proclaims peace, Who brings glad tidings of good things, Who proclaims salvation, Who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!” 8 Your watchmen shall lift up their voices, With their voices they shall sing together; For they shall see eye to eye When the Lord brings back Zion. 9 Break forth into joy, sing together, You waste places of Jerusalem! For the Lord has comforted His people, He has redeemed Jerusalem. 10 The Lord has [c]made bare His holy arm In the eyes of all the nations; And all the ends of the earth shall see The salvation of our God. 11 Depart! Depart! Go out from there, Touch no unclean thing; Go out from the midst of her, Be clean, You who bear the vessels of the Lord. 12 For you shall not go out with haste, Nor go by flight; For the Lord will go before you, And the God of Israel will be your rear guard.

So then for those who are waiting for a second coming Jesus, quite likely think that is when their change comes but we just showed you it is not . The One who said that “I will never leave you or forsake you”. Is always within reach in spirit and truth. So that the one who never leaves us or forsakes us? Is just a whisper away.

In this way and this way alone, “The Kingdom of God is at hand. Amen!
