Technology The Contending source of Gnosis, or Knowledge.

Scripture says of the Elect that “you are being transfigured (and transformed) into Christ’s self same image from the Glory to His Glory as by the Holy Spirit (and Word).” And where does this transfiguration happen? In the spirit of your mind. However there are counterfeit spirits with a counterfeit  forms of godliness or god-likeness, from what is called “the prince of the power of the air (or spirit) that works in the sons of disobedience.” To mean that there is another form of being like God unto yourselves, by the god of this age which is Satan. Even as Christ said “the god of this age that is coming, has nothing in (common with) Me.” To mean nothing in common except the desire for souls. Yes your soul is uniquely yours and why scripture commands us “in you patience possess (and protect) your soul”. And “Satan has desired to sift you as wheat and I pray your faith does not fail”.  The prince of the power of the air” to mean the inner-net that infers there is another being the upper, outer, with the provisions offer through the Gospel Message of who many call Jesus Christ.

We say contending form of knowledge because you have to select, choose and submit to one or the other. To submit is an acknowledgement of a submission, which means you knowingly and willingly put yourself UNDER another or others for care and coverages of many sorts. And if you could see how this works, you would understand that the contending form of god-likeness today, is that inner-net cloud between you and the upper outer. That they have you covered means protected and shielded.  And we ask, shielded from what? And just as the Gospel asks to choose you this day” And that “Today is the day of Salvation from the Almighty God who cleanses us and covers us with the Blood of His Only Begotten Son, that by His stripes we can be healed because on Him was laid the inequity’s and shortcomings of us all.” So the gospels main message is to “be saved from this generation”. For you to choose who is your provider.  That a provider is suppose to be a benevolent one. And there are many contending choices with the internet.

It was the first uprising against the Creator God that became “the prince of the power of the air that works in the disobedience” that work together in defiance of the living God, of whom they offer similar services. It was these fallen angels that “left their first estate”. And an “estate” is the totality of all that is owned in a family name. That’s why we come in the name of Christ because “we  are joint heirs of the things of God”. That we have vested into by faith (think about a vest and an investment) .  That we too as the Elect have gone all in of the things of our Heavenly Father and taking part in the protection and the promulgation of this gospel. That those who’ve been call to “go ye therefore preaching and teaching all I have commanded you”, as having to do with Salvation, to mean for us to promote it,  to start with repairing the breach if contract that was broken by Adam when he ate the fruit from the contenders who offer similar and something more physical and tangible then an open ended promise to be saved. “For God so loved the world that whosoever would believe (have a continuing faith) in Him would not perish but receive an eternal life.”

That is why the contender being the “power if the air” waves, offers contending promises, for you to become god-like over your life and your affairs. And whereas in the previous reset on humanity that came with a judgment by them receiving a locator and tracking chip in their hand as proof that they were owned by another. (Think of cows, lambs and sheep and such who are identified in the same way.) Because people being made in the image of God, are to be a god unto themselves based upon the choices they make. That when they, us or you submit? You are giving over your personal sovereignty to another, selling out and making yourself a slave if you are submitting. And in doing so that one or ones who you submit to? Represent you as you, not only on your behalf,  but moreover their behalf because you bowed and vowed to them. And much like a marriage where two become one, as one body, as was Adam and Eve before the removal of the rib. That people who submit as such, being part of another body of beliefs, cannot fully be part of the body of Christ, and why the edicts has gone out numerous times to each and every person, so that they are responsible for their choices. We beg you, do not be found bound to various surrogate inter-net providers.

Think about the fairy tale in Gulliver’s Travels where the man fell asleep and hundreds of little imps sowed threads back and forth over the top of him, creating a grid so that when the man woke up? There were enough woven together little bands so as to keep him from getting up. That those seemingly innocuous little threads were overlapped enough to neutralize that man’s ability to stand for himself.  And so goes all of those seemingly alive and alert and empowered by internet services.    When in truth they serve another, or others, a collective body of beliefs contending with the Gospel message of Gods Only Begotten Son who psid fir your deliverance of such tethers.  So you cannot serve two masters and by being in the net you are bound by many and bundled up. This is the same as being other entity possessed” through multiple submissions by giving permissions to re-present you as you for the cost and sake of convenience. And the proof is the permissions, contracts, usage of services and monthly payments.

Most fairy tales are about fallen fairies called broken angels because of their fall. Their manmade resurrection is the air. The airwaves.  And there trap is a net, the inner-net. That the prince of the power of the air,  is not about oxygen air, but electrical waves in the air. “For Satan has desired to sift you as wheat, and I pray that your faith does not fail.” The only way out is to un-submit and make new or renew your vows, like being Wed or made One in and with God by acknowledging His Son and submitting to Him, who promises you equal power and ownership of and with the real power ” in Heavenly places in Christ, far above all principalities and powers in Heavenly places in Christ.” So we say “get behind me Satan for you are not mindful of the things if God but man”. Meaning mankind. And whereas the fallen angels made “mutual imprecations”, meaning that they equally submit to each other, to set aside their differences for their common cause to usurp humanities God given powers as He made them in His image to become like Him. So that it is man’s own duty, each one in their own time of existence.  So that you may know the timelessness of “The Gospel of salvation, to be available anytime and anywhere and where two or more are gathered in His name.  He said “there am I in their midst.” However because God is spirit and truth and seeks such. You must answer in that venue.  But think about it, so are the inner-net agencies. That they come together as a body by bundling together too for broader coverages.

Think about it like this. That by using “the cloud” to store all your personal stuff, and to use such services, what about it to you is tangible? Where do they put your stuff? In the cloud. Well what does scripture say about clouds?

And a cloud came and overshadowed the disciples; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!”

Jesus said to him, “It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were fearful as they entered the cloud.

Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.”

Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before

Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.

For even inn the Old Covenant YWHY came in a cloud as well

21 And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night.

34 Then the cloud covered the tabernacle of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 35 And Moses was not able to enter the tabernacle of meeting, because the cloud rested above it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 36 Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would [a]go onward in all their journeys. 37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not journey till the day that it was taken up. 38 For the cloud of the Lord was above the tabernacle by day, and fire was over it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their

Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, (meaning to fully activate the gift of God according to Godliness)² looking unto Jesus, the ^[a]author and ^[b]finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Waiting for His enemies to become His footstool.” That His enemies are your enemies because His treasure is you as you are His. This is why God’s only begotten came and paved the way for you to come back to the Father through the very gospel, which is a good news in exchange for the bad. However in your patience posses your souls.” Means that you must be persist and and have endurance.

That you must play this all out by transferring your dependencies over to His promises as outlined in scripture, which is more then a contract bound by terms and conditions. But as heirs and joint heirs of Christ’s estate. And what makes this offer really appealing is that it is not a contract as such such for services and safety’s, but a legal distribution of the Will and goods of a dead man’s estate, retroactive from the Cross. Because the New Testament does not read so much like a covenant as in the days of  the Old Covenant of “if you… then I will” but moreover just a description of what you inherit as you join into the family of God by being “born again” by Word and Spirit. And it us upon these truths that you receive your portion as you grow in you ability to understand, that you receive and can activate the promises contained therein as you learn and grow in the faith. That faith is the things that we hope for, the evidence that there are things unseen, that by doing so we gain report with the Father.” Therefore “Today is the day of salvation” to mean to apply your newly allocated inheritance as you grow in godliness. Which is not meant to be a religious piety as thought of today, for that is just a false form of self righteousness.

What you don’t realize is that when you submit to the contenders, the very thing they offer to give you is what you empower them to take from you. This is why the growing health care industry makes people sicker with prescriptions, from the Greek means witchcraft. Think here of permissions given by signing a contract, like birthing contracts that painfully …

And as far as the inner net achieving “singularity” in the next few years? What is singularity? It is a gathering together as one all things and all powers on earth under One head. To have all things known and controlled by one. Who is that one? The prince of the power of the air (also called Satan) that works in the sons of disobedience” as warned about in scripture. That because the wheat and the tares grow together, there is another “singularity”. That the intention of Christ as Savior first, who then sent His Holy Spirit saying “if I do not go back to the Father (others call God) I will not send My Helper.” And just as with the first ones wed or melded together was Adam and Eve. That Eve was brought out on display after Adam looked at all the animals and didn’t see His helper whom he named Eve and Havah. She was the invisible ingredient Adam had without knowing it. So too, many have Christ’s Bride called the Holy Spirit at there proverbial fingertips. So that those of us who have been born by the Son of God who is the Word of God, to also be, not born  but borne by the Holy Spirit, have both parts of the God head body in us, active and available to grow into now and why and how the second coming seeker message can be laid aside with other demonic interpretations of scripture, because it is a denial of the Savior at the cross to suppose a second coming, which is a phrase not found once in scripture.

The wheat and the tares mature together? Yes, and we are among the wheat and we are right on time. Repent and believe the gospel of salvation according to Godliness, a likeness just like God Himself,  gifted to us by His Only Begotten Son,  so that we become sons and daughters too. This is the family of God, His look alike as was His Son who became flesh so that we in turn put off our flesh nature and all its demands and put on Christ’s nature one promise and one provision at at time till “we are complete in Him who is head over all powers and principalities. For this is the gospel, the salvation of your souls.

In this way The Kingdom of God is at hand, available and attainable as being “In Christ”.

Amen!

Kingdom at Hand? Or Second Coming?

This isn’t a question we should be debating. Jesus Christ came preaching that The Kingdom of God is at hand, and instructed His disciples who become Apostles, to do the same thing. For you see that this was a different message than the Law and The Prophets, and an invitation that is in effect even NOW until the final judgment

There could be some confusion as to what “at hand” means. Scripture says that God and Christ “only spoke too to the people in parables and without a parable spake He not. To mean since the beginning to include Adam and Eve. For they were given the same task as us in that they were in the Garden of Eden, their place to discover the luscious fruit of that tree. For us we understand “that tree” in parable form as the tree of Life, which in New Will And Testament terms is re-presented by the Cross of Christ in parable form. So we have the tree that genders death with Adam, and the Cross (a tree trunk of wood) that generates Eternal life. And because it came in parable form, for “without a parable spake He not to the people”, to mean the Old Testament up until its replacement had come so that now we don’tcallHim Lord or Master because He said “Ino longer call you slaves because slaves don’t know what their masters are doing, but I tell you all things.” And we convey the interpretation thereof so that you too can enjoy “the Kingdom of God at hand”, which is also “The Kingdom prepared from the foundations of the world”. To mean those who did not get stuch in the quagmire of the law. That “The law was added till faith came”. And the Cross is the object of that faith and our doorway into Eternity. Didn’t Jesus say that “I am the way the truth and the light”? That “no one comes to the Father unless it is through Me. That His life was brokeb for us, as seen with the “breaking of bread”, then the disiples delivered it to the masses. And from that One and Only loaf the multitude was fed with plenty to spare. So that you shouldn’t have to feel hungry or left out. Why? Becasue Christ was and is and is to come”, to include the bread of life for all of mankind throughout the ages and to the end. That is if eternity had one but it doesn’t. So He is sufficient.

So for more than just the bread is a parable, it is a proof and the point that all the parables, pictures lessons as well as Scripture itself, is all ONLY EVER meant to add definition to the Eternal rhelm of the Spirit, and why one must be “born again” and “borne of the spirit to do so. For it is there that the transition, or transfigureation takes place. And the proof of that is that you cannot see it. For even as scripture states that “The wind blows where it wishes” so are those borne of the spirit. The question is, are you truly born again in a scriptural fashion?

so we will show you the term AT HAND use throughout scripture as to mean “within reach” at the moment it was said, to mean just as if I were to hand you something, to mean all you have to do is take it. Free for the taking unless stated otherwise.

This first set of scriptures translate the Greek word eggizo as near instead of at hand because it was the translators decision to do so because of the context however both near and at hand come from the Greek Concordance number 1448

Below in font is from eggizo.

Mark 13.28 say that “when you see the leaves change you know that summer is near (at hand).

Luke 22.47 where Judas “drew near to kiss Him”, speaking of when he sold out on Christ and delivered Him up to death.

Acts 21.33 “the chief captain came near (at hand) and took him.

Mt 21.34, 24.33 Luke 15.1, 1840, 1941, 21.8 22.47, 2415, near, drew near, as also from Mark Luke and John. But you get the point that the term “at hand” as seen translated to mean something other than a futuristic Second Coming as seekers are looking for even again in our day. So that shortly and near is more like immediately and immanent and not some supposed 2000 plus years later or more as the bulk of the body of Christian believers suppose today.

Remember the warning that “wicked men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceaved”. To mean to keep growing in more deception. IEvenas scripture poses”when Christ comes, will He really find faith on earth?” The answer would be, No! Because Christs next apperance shall be His last “with a flaming fire, taking vengance on His enemies”, “and the earth and all its works shall be burned for the eternal to remain.” To mean without competition.

So then like at the last supper in Matthew 26.18-51 The Master says His time is at hand”, 45 “the hour is at hand and the time has come.” 46 “he (Judas) is at hand that does betray Me”.

In John 2.13 “the Passover was at hand”. John 7.2 “the feast of the Tabernacles was at hand”.

Romans 13.12 “the night is far spent and the Day is at hand.”

Revelation 1.3 saying not to seal the book “for the time is at hand., Then to close that book saying in 22.10 “Do not seal the prophecies of this book for the time is at hand.” To mean “aat hand” with the same immediacy as the afore mentioned verses. SO that when it comes to The Kingdom of God is at hand”. And no edict was given otherwise. To further add speculation to the loss of that phrase “at hand” as happening, the phrase frequently repeated that “The Kingdom of God is at hand”. That if you are looking for a second coming, you are really quite confused. And so goes Christendom at large.

And as far as that Greek word used as “near”? Check these out.

Mark 13.28

Luke 18.40

Luke 22.47

Hebrews 10.22

And if these proofs are not enough to prove the point that Salvation was “at hand” to aquire even then, let us draw upon the opening verse of Hebrews, the most inquisitive verse among the New Testament texts that reads “God who who times past in various ways spoke to the fathers by the prophets, has in these LAST DAYS spoken to us by His Son”. Whom we also know as “The Word of God”, who “became flesh and dwelt among us”, to infer that it was with Christ that the last days started as having to do with the “New” and final “Testament” as being the Old Covenant replacement, with no third or final covenant or testament, or another work of any sort coming later. For if that was the case, then When the Christ at the cross said to the Father :it is finished, He would be a liar. And if He went to the Fathers right hand, to have to get up or do anything else would proove false most of scripture itself because it is all about the Son of God who came into the world not to condemn but to save. And if He didn’t dothat for all people, time and eternity, then what good was the cross? Cross-over? Get it? And what about His last words before His Spirit departed? “Father it is finished.”

We know that since then He has been seated at the right hand of the Father,  based upon thr works of The Cross He was Gods only and final remedy and say so was through His Son, for which we were called to “go ye therefore teaching and preaching that THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND. And those who are looking for another, to mean a second coming Jesus? Are rejecting the “way the truth and the life” and in denial and may also be charged with rejecting the one time event of the Eternal Sons price paid to be His death for ours. And not ours alone but for the whole world whether they accept it, or not. And because The Only Begotten paid at the Cross, being our cross over and access to the Father? It can be implemented anytime and any where because God is that big and His Son was that thorough.

That “He is able to save to the uttermost because because He has an eternal life to do so. Or better yet, because He is Eternal He need not repeat Himself over and over for “He has come once at the end of the age to put an end to the sacrifices for sin”. And if you can accept this, then you too can learn to enter His rest by faith and be seated in solace and safety with these eternal truths by faith, because it is “from faith to faith”. One promise after another until “you are complete in Him who is head over all.”

In that God so loved the world, not so much the earth because the earth like a piece of paper is a medium whereby an artist can display his handy work. SO too it was God who created that forum, form and platform to display His handy work, being us!As evedenced by God crowning His creation by making Adam on the sixth and final day. That creation is NOT the objective but those born from Adam. That God so loved us that He gave His Only Begotten so that when we go to the Father in Christs name, the Father sees Him in us. And THAT is what salvation means, and when it starts is as soon as anyone anywhere throughout time confesses Christs freely gifted provision of our way back home as His images that were broken from the beginning…

It is then that the Father sees His Son in us and grants us access to everything that they have and who they are so that the verse can become true for you too, that “you have been given everything that pertains to life and godliness through knowing these things from Him who has called us to glory and virtue. By virtue of you knowing and applying these things that are AT HAND through the working of faith. That faith is the substance of things that we hoped in, which is our evidence of the things unseen.” That many may call the super natural. And that they are! These all have to do with “The Kingdom of God at hand”. This still, even today is the same message for all time and eternity, but the invitation has an end. SO say we, The Kingdom of God is at hand, within reach. But you must enter through the Cross by faith to retrieve it. Therefore “The Just Shall Live by Faith!! Welcome to the Kingdom. Amen!

ENSURING OUR COMPLETION AND OUR CROSSOVER.

There is a promise in scripture that “We are a new creation in Christ. That old things HAVE past away, behold all things HAVE become new and all things ARE from God.” (2 Corinthians 5.17-18)

However we must understand that the “ALL THINGS ARE FROM God” are NOT of THIS AGE of “TIME AND MATTER” but something that pre-existed, before God ever said “let there be light” by which He jump started creation as something different from the Creator who created it. We are not saying that God doesn’t bless the tangible things, but the things of this age have an expiration date, and that should help us define our goal our goal as to what our “cross-over” is. There are many parables in scripture to help us do so. .

The point is that “Gods” things remain sanctified, isolated and away from the infections, sickness, disease, death and destruction’s of “this age” (of which He is also the cure), and from mixing with “creation” itself.

Creation is an enclosed and controlled environment. Creation has purposes, and one of them is to filter out, to trap, to contain and hold spell bound all the evil doers in their attempts to steal control over all aspects of creation. Yes their lust and quest for this realm is their snare and their occupation, their pre- occupation that keeps them ground-bound and looking down. They are occupied with creation and why scripture calls Satan “the god of this age” SPEAKING OF THE SECTOR ASSOCIATED WITH THE FALL FROM ADAM.

This age is our training grounds and the trap for fallen angels who try to detain us (by having people submit to them by submissions to terms and conditions that keeps them subservient. But for us they are nothing but food for fodder. In this way the Heavens get purified. We go up through their net to lay hold of the promises of God for our empowerment’s, and they go down and why we say. “Get behind Me for you are not mindful of the things of God, but of man.” And fallen man at that.

For this reason we are called “pilgrims and sojourners”. Creation is NOT our home because our departure from it is us arising to another place we call “The Kingdom of God at hand” which was first spoken by Christ Himself. Because it is “at hand” for those who are accounted as being “in and of Christ” as opposed to those being “in and of the world” as being “in Adam” because we have a different heritage than those who return to the dust (Think industrial revolution here that replaced the Common Era that started first in the book of Acts of the Apostles.)

We are in a secure place called “sanctification“ by implementing the safety features called the promises of God as outlined in scripture. There we find our tools and the directions with our empowerment of how to employ them. But this is past up on by the ill-intended seekers who are filtered out as being disingenuous by appropriating scripture to insure their carnal assets . For them scripture is something else.

Our sanctification and our protection from God is also referred to as “Heavenly Jerusalem the Mother of all (who are borne of the Spirit) because “nothing unclean shall enter Her”. We who are “born again” are “born from above” that precedes and supersedes the creation of 6 days . We are encapsulated, preserved and protected by Gods word and Holy Spirit in this fashion. This is what scriptural sanctification is. And a fortuitous strong tower and safe haven for all who call upon Yahovah with a pure heart. (untainted by the worlds illusions meant to detain the disingenuous and those who are still asleep).

The truth be told, creation is the trap because in it will bring forth the contrast and the anti-types of things Eternal, as was the whole old law culture and why the Israelite’s were called children some 1200 times in The Old Testament. This was because they just could NOT put away their toys to cross over in their understanding into the invisible as attainable before their carnal conclusion, to make the connection into the real being as the Eternal. Even as Paul said. When I was a child, I thought like a child, when I became a man (past tense), I put away childhood toys” to mean the old Covenant look alikes.

Similarly with Moses who spoke to the Israelite’s (not the jews, that title is just signs of the times slang) saying And the Lord spoke to you out of the midst of the fire. You heard the sound of the words, but you SAW NO FORM; you only heard a voice. And “Take careful heed to yourselves, for you SAW NO FORM when I spoke to you at Horeb out of the midst of the fire”. (Deuteronomy 4) Showing us that our realization of God and His Eternal things gifted to us DO NOT TAKE ON A FORM TO PLEASE YOUR CARNAL SENSES. This is for our conclusion, that we are in the world but NOT of the world” but of the Spirit.

This is why Christ appeared as a pauper on a donkey and expired in purpose that Jerusalem in that carnal Israel with all their officers, laws and feasts once and for all! (And from Genesis 49.1 and 8-10 of “what will befall you in your later days”) their last days came an end along with the whole Old Covenant era with the coming of Christ “riding on the foal of a colt.”

And confirmed again at Horeb by Moses saying “Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself, lest you forget the things your eyes have seen (as training tools of the invisible), and lest they depart from YOUR HEART all the days of your life. And teach them to your children and your grandchildren. (as joint heirs of the Kingdom of God at hand).

This is why Christ said that “all the law and the prophets were (only) till John the Baptist (STOP). Now the Kingdom (of God at hand) is preached and all are entering”, as being totally contrary to the Old Covenant Kingdom, and also their replacement. So, you can see what kind of mess we are in today. But fortunately for us the call is still  “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” The Kingdomof God is at hand”. Still as of this writing

Like our Father said “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways. 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.’  This is our need for His Word and Holy Spirit.

So don’t expect His things to look like your things made with tractors, hammers and chisels except to be used by way of contrasts for educational and explanation purposes only as we just explained. This is why Paul said “when I became a man (an adult), I put away childhood things” referring to putting away as expired the whole Old Covenant as being only teaching tools for tots, for “children” wandering in the wilderness as those were called in the Old Covenant era.

And of the Jews still around? God gave them up to themselves to accomplish the desire of their own hearts, a Jerusalem on earth in waiting for a Jesus to come as though His only incarnation could NOT complete the task, but He said “it is finished.” . So it is to all who reject Yahovah Elohim in His original construct of ‘Spirit and Truth‘? These are not the children of God.

THOSE WHO HAD COME OUT OF THE LIES

Yes as with Noah, with Lot and his family and with believers described in The Book of The Revelation, the bugle call has blasted to flea, to leave and to depart. To ‘come out of her My people”‘ because Babylon the world system connected by a www. eye in the sky, worldwide web, with your name, address, phone numbers, passwords, bank and health records, all of which you have submitted to with terms and conditions, likes and subscribes as blasphemous and insulting to God the Father who has us covered in EVERY PERCEIVABLE, SND NECESSARY WAY! They say “the borrower serves the lender”. In this way many have sold themselves with liens, contracts and terms and conditions on everything when scripture tells us “let your yes be yes and your no be no for whatever else comes from this is from the wicked one”. Why? Because terms and conditions are as “legal and binding” as marriage vows when you are to be wed to One, the Creator who made you into His image. But then you submit which is tge same as to bow, and how you become restricted. This is an insult to The Gift giver of life that who harlot yourself for such provisions as though the Father over looked your need of such things. Blasphemy! Even as it is written in Genesis 49.14  “Issachar was as a strong donkey, lying down between two burdens; 15 He saw that (Gods) Rest was good, And that the land  (of promises) was pleasant; (But instead) He bowed his shoulder to bear a burden, And became a bound up of slave.

This is how “Babylon has fallen (and inverted in purpose) and become a snare and a trap for every foul bird and unclean thing (because they are lusting for human souls to be subdued so they may cohabit-ate in human bodies, also called demon possession. Paul spoke of these in 2 Timothy 2. 26 and that they may come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

Fortunately for us we have the Gospel for our empowerments.

For it is Babylon (obscured and confusing contracts, think of pregnancy contraction pains)  that takes on the contrasts of the eternal in a way to appease the carnal infatuations. These have not been truly born again because John 3 says that “Only those born again can see the kingdom of God.” And “only those born of water and the Spirit, can enter the kingdom of God. Where does this put you??

Think of your baptism vows here, because if you are not born again “in Christ” you may be subject to Gods wrath by an disingenuous  association. But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: “A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”

To mean they never learned to employ their empowerment’s gifted to us from the Cross as joint heirs of an Eternal sort.

The modern era Mystery Babylons destruction will be “in the blink of an eye” meaning faster then humanly noticeable. That they will come into full contact with the strong hand of God Who will smite them with a flaming damnation from the Almighty God who has been toying with them (the demonic entities) in order for them to “fill up (to the full) the measure of your fathers guilt”. Their expected joy will vaporize like a puff of smoke. (2 Peter 3.10-13).

Therefore “come out of Her My people lest you partake of their sins and receive of their judgements. To never be influenced by them  again other than educational as a testimony on how NOT to do it. (Isaiah 66.24 which states “And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against Me, for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

And of Babylons testimony? “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird!

Then the judgment will be 8 “Therefore her plagues will come in one day—death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.”

NOW FOR THOSE WHO ARE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE AND “THE IN-BETWEEN”

This is why Christ spoke to the woman the well, of which she said erroneously that “you jews say in Jerusalem is the (preferred) place where God ought to be worshiped. And Christ replied “woman I tell you in truth that the time that is coming (of which you inquire of) is ALREADY HERE when you shall Not worship the Father in (any) Jerusalem (on earth, back then or now) but in spirit and truth for the Father seeks such”. (John 4.19-26) And because of that, that Jerusalem was wiped out “till not one brick shall be left upon another” were the words of Christ (Matthew 24.1-2), and He is the word of God, so that Jerusalem is to be no more forever. Amen.

Where does that put those who again  that, TODAY is NOT the day for salvation? Why? Because they are expecting another coming Jesus to another brick built temple in a brick built Jerusalem with supposed replications of the important features for more sacrifices? To return to the old Covenant as a way of doing things on earth? As though that would make their Jesus happy. Did He turn die in vain?

That concept totally defies every quote from scripture new and old as we’ve presented such to expose their fallacies, it is an act of scriptural defiance to associate with the old in any other way than the wrong way because how many were righteous. NONE, NO NOT ONE!

Woe is them! It shall not be the place of God’s blessing. It is the cursed defiance and object of the scorn of Eternity for mimicking eternal things to detain humanity. To keep them from rising up to the call from the Holy Spirit to “come up hither”. Where? To the Jerusalem that comes down from God from Heaven, and seen actively open as described by Paul in Galatians as “The Mother of us all” who are now borne from above from the original the old was only to teach about with toys. Let The Original in Heaven be your joy, be your love and aspiration and not the blasphemous rendition built with the bricks of men. If that had worked, there would have been no need for A New Will And Testament of God founded with eternal blood and eternal provisions…..

This is the purpose and the encapsulation of “all the promises to us from God. They are all eternal, they are all “spirit and truth. You see if we have pursued Christ and put Him on as scripture commands, then you have nothing to worry about as the powers of this age try their last ditch effort to detain you from your inheritance by you trying to preserve yours here. With all the news and fake news and big bad boogie men of the day that try to keep you distracted through their various forms of fear.

So we say, Let them have it! We are not saying kill yourself, for you forever live if you live by the Spirit. What we are saying about them, is that their words, warnings and threats of persecutions have no power over us because the Son of God purchased our deaths with “the blood of the Eternal Spirit, be it slow or fast, because we belong to Him. That is why we say when Christ at the cross asked the Father why He forsook Him”? He didn’t. Christ nearly  just tasted death for us so that we wouldn’t have to.

Oh the blessedness of such a massive gift of eternal life. And we know that Christ, after paying for the death of all mankind, He walked away unscathed because of the empty tomb, the grave cloths lying on the ground and the head cloth folded and set on a ledge (signifying a scroll on a shelf). Dead people can not do that. And because someone with eternal life did do this, it was sufficient. We know this because if you added together all the years of all the people who have lived and died, there is a number and that number which is in the billions, is far short of eternal. But the point here is that not only did Christ take on Himself the count of dead years of all of humanity, He also took to Himself all the pain and agony associated with it, or else the penalty of death in fact has not been paid. But we have come to know and believe that when The Christ on The Cross let out His agonizing, screeching, blood curdling cry’s, they were not for Himself, but the collection of ours from all humanity (John 3.16). That is the Testimony of the cry’s at the cross that He truly bore our sins AND the consequences thereof. (Those who the Son sets free are truly free”? Yes, from the consequences of death too. That is why the gift is eternal life.

That is why the Apostle Paul could convey to us (if you are willing to receive it) that “Romans 8

That’s the size of the gift of God in His Son. “For God sent His Son into the world not to condemn those in it, but to save them. (John 3.17)

This should encourage all of us to seriously discover the gift of eternal life given by the sacrifice of Gods Son. Had Christ not been eternal and from the Father, He would not have prevailed, but this was all part of the plan from the beginning and why even Adam and Eve experienced a sacrifice showing that they understood that the price for a life was death.

The fact of the matter is, every hope, every belonging and every entanglement you have with this age, and primarily with the gods of this age, must be put off because any thing you hold on to here is going to weigh heavy on your spirit and make it hard for your departure. If you have put off the works of the flesh of self and self preservation, your reservation in the Kingdom is secured. Primarily because there is no mixture of substance. Christ said “the god of this age that’s coming, has nothing in Me.” So much so in fact that there is nothing to be afraid of for those who are “in Christ”, as opposed to those who are in and of the world.

You see every generation had to go through a series of tests to disenfranchise themselves from this age.

“Mark 10.9 So Jesus answered and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother [a]or wife or children or [b]lands, for My sake and the gospel’s, who will not receive abundantly more.

We can start with Noah and the Ark. That family was so withdrawn from that world that they were on the Ark with the doors closed before the first drop of rain fell. And if we are Covenanted with God, we are in the ark of safety.

And of Lot and his family with Sodom and Gomorrah. They had Angels tugging them until the last moment. And even then they settled for the low country and would only go up so far. This was their snare. Remember Lots wife? She failed to let go of the old and she was turned into a statue of salt for all successive generations to see how NOT to do it.

It was when God spoke through Moses to the Israelite’s that He purposed to them “The Passover”. We see this where the angel of death past over them because of the blood applied to their doorways. Then they were instructed to cross over the Red Sea to start to learn through trials and testings, to live in the promises God gave them from “The Ark (like Noah’s) of the covenant”.

Like us who are “in Christ“. He is our Ark and our Covenant, to mean that we are in Gods promises because the Son of God the Christ is also the promise land because we also walk in the promises. And as it is said in Exodus 4 that “Israel is Gods first born”. Meaning that God the Father was not referring to a land called Israel or a people. Those were just pictures. And because Gods only begotten is portrayed throughout scripture, you can now see that to be in Christ” is to be in Gods Only Begotten Son, and to be in The Son is to be “in Christ”. So then those who are “in Christ” are in “the promise land” and the place here the promises are activated and realized is “in Christ”, because “if anyone is “in Christ” they are a new creation. That old things have past away. Behold! All things become new and all things are from God”. It is to us who are in Christ “ that are in the promise land where all things new are realized.

All these descriptions define the invisible spiritual realities, picture in a physical way of what we are to do in the spirit, in an invisible way. Simply put, we need to put off the things of this age that make us look like anyone else. If you didn’t have the promises from God, you would have to find other providers, provisions and protections from other sources. But you don’t want to do that . These differences distinguish us from the rest of the world.

“We are in the world, but not of (like) the world”.

Amen!

The Faith Once And For ALL Delivered To The Saints

The book of Jude instructed us saying:  Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James. To those who are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved (and secured) in Christ, and called: 2 Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied to you. 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write to you about the common salvation, now it is (also) necessary for me to write to contend earnestly for the faith which was once (and for all) delivered to the saints. 4 For there are certain men (who) crept in unawares, who were before (and) of old ordained for certain condemnation. They are men against God, turning His grace into lasciviousness (a license to sin), and denying the only Lord God, and (the fruit of the cross of) our Lord Jesus Christ.

That the idea of the Gospel having been “once and for all delivered to the Saints” means that there are no system updates or upgrades as does the final era counterfeits.

That it is for us who “contend earnestly for the faith once and for all delivered” to us, to be done for truth and accuracy.

That is to uphold the gospel to its original purpose of “salvation”. Which is a restoration for humanity from the wreckage of the fall as seen in Adam, who fell only in understanding for there was no blood shed or broken bones but a way of thinking. To mean to be raised or resurrected from the fall, all happens in the spirit of our minds where humanity at large became dead to the things of God, and the need for “The Kingdom of God at hand.”

That there were no broken bones, contusions or blood shed when Adam fell, just an upside down, inverted way of thinking.

So as we read here from 2 Corinthians 6.”6 We then, as workers together with Christ, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2 (For He saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)

Meaning because He heard, helped and secured, that there is nothing left for Him to do on His part. For if He was, they would not be “seated, waiting for His enemies to become His footstool.” In this  way He granted us to be  seated there with them based upon what is already available to us today. Why? Because God has heard and has helped. The rest is up to us with the tools of Word and the help of The Holy Spirit. These are sufficient.

This is a reality that is foreign to the second coming seekers, who are looking for their help and completion to come from another dose of saving from a second coming Jesus. And we have been warned of another such act of saving in The “second coming” cult as seen here saying; “9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and (counterfeit) signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth

(of The Savior who already came, paid the price, secured the cure, and said “I go to the Father and you see Me again no more” at least according to the flesh), that they might be saved. 11 And for this reason, God shall send them a strong delusion, for them to believe in a lie: 12 For them all to be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

For if Christ died to “deliver us” and “save us” from sin, and the consequences from sin, how is it many expect a second coming dose of another Jesus to add to that, as if Christs one term here didn’t save? Isn’t a “rapture” a rescue or saving the same thing? That if He didn’t already supply to us, as we quote from Peter “everything that pertains to Life and Godliness through the knowledge of Him who has called us to glory and virtue”. Then He must come again. And that my friend is a contending source of saving. And it is “with all lying signs and wonders” so as to change peoples perspective to sell them a contending savings package that requires little to no obligation for the believers who heard that. It is all soulish, sensual and devilish.

You really cannot be secure with such a weakened understanding of the Gospel that implies  that more efforts from the Godhead are needed to deliver the goods for your completion. Were not the Apostles sent out proving that “the Kingdom of God is at hand”?  With mighty miracles and wonders? Well then what happened? No wonder the manmade health care systems with pharmakia and prescriptions are so prevalent.

However we know it is written of  Christ that, “According as his divine power hath given over to us all things that pertains to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: that through these precious promises we are (already) partakers of the divine  nature having escaped the corruption of the lusts of the world.”

So then, what did we miss out on, that must be given to us later? That salvation comes in increments? Yes, but only in your understanding.

That “the faith once and for all delivered to the saints” is already substantiated by certain truths, all as a result of the cross. And that in opposition of these truths, there would be contenders to the contrary at times and other times an all out onslaught against scriptures original intent as we are in this final era of the last of the last times, that started from the cross (Hebrews 1.1-2.  And, that “God sent His Son into the world to save.” And Christ is already the way the truth and the life”? Or not. Depends on if you’ve received this form of being saved or another.

It is a matter of faith and trust in the living word that we accept the Salvation from God wrought in His Son on the cross, with it stamped saying “price is paid in full.”

Wasn’t the testimony of the Cross? That He is “the new and living way” to The Father? He was not meant to be a temporary cure or a bandage to leave you ground bound and looking down, waiting,  wanting and wandering.

And we say “living way to the Father” because of the Holy Spirit that lives and breaths in us, and is the One who makes it all so.

So that these are not just words without  meanings but attributes of The Only Begotten and benefits gifted to us who believe that “Today is the day of Salvation.” That the fall in Eden has been reversed through the “resurrection”, and we can disregard the notions of the second coming seekers.

That for us to “work out our own salvation with fear and trembling” is us being serious about “putting on Christ” one revelation at a time as the New Testament Epistles commands. That if we don’t put on the gift from God “in Christ”. We will be disregarded as “slothful stewards” who get cast into outer darkness for not putting on Christ in such a fashion. Remember, He was introduced as “The Word of God” too. And “put you on the full armor of God.” This is it!

So that to contend for the faith would NOT be necessary if it is not subject to diminishing over time. Not that the scriptures or the attributes diminish but peoples understanding and implementation of them is obscured and the reliance on them wears thin over time as a matter of  misperceptions. That is where a second coming came from, but you cannot find that verbage in scripture once.

So that is why we “contend earnestly for the faith” because we are the modern day stewards of “the faith once and for all delivered to the Saints”, if even just for simple clarifications such as this.

And however much the seemingly innocent efforts for some to translate and simplify the scriptures over time, through various versions and different arrangement of wordings so as to appease the flesh.

Showing us that, even scripture is subject to the laws of thermal dynamics, in a sense of the diminishing of power through loss of intent. Largely because of time and translations.

And not only that, but we were warned that “wicked men and impostors would grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived” as a clear indication that a diminishing of the power of the word of God does take place. Even as scripture asks us “Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

One of the obvious ways scripture is weakened is through the additions of phrases like “in order to”, “so that you may” or might, could, should or would, all impose the idea that it may or may NOT be true or available. However scripture has clarity to like “Let your yes be yes and no be no for anything more than this is from the evil one.” So we know the aorist tense sentences are mans mix-up. And what better way to cast a shadow on truth and to sow in doubts with might, maybe and should, to name a few.

We know who is responsible for that. Even as the parable of the sower of the seed saying “Master did you not sow good seed in your field? Why then does it have tares. And the Masters response? While men slept (meaning the leaders of the General assembly). The enemy has done this.”

To indicate that there are unauthorized perceptions sown into the fabric of some texts that create doubts and redirects. So that we have to as Scripture commands “let your yes be yes and the no, mean no for anything more that this is from the devil.”

Well with the “might be, or in order for, that you may? How can anyone stamp anything with a firm “Amen!? If ambiguity is there? There is doubt, and since we are told to contend earnestly for the faith, we let our yes be yes and no be no”? Here is another clue for accurate understanding of scripture….

” But some how the scripture is replete with phrases like “that you may” “in order for you” and any where you see the word “might”. You can be sure that either the ignorant, confused or the out right deceivers had there influence in that verbage in scripture.

so that verses like “Christ died so that you might have life”? The only ambiguity about this is in the hearer of the word the truth that  here is with the recipient. That by adding might promotes doubt in a reader with lessor experience to think “has God really said? That was like Satan asking Adam if he was sure the fruit was forbidden. And Satan’s inquiry had some affect because up until that point in time, Adam and Eve quite likely did not entertain the idea of Gods integrity. But it is not necessary to give Satan any credit because whatever resistance comes your way is to test your resolve on if you’ll believe. For that is your part in “working out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you for His own good pleasure.” And that pleasure is that He is pleased to see a reflection of His Son in us as us pushing through the obstacles, without breaking stride as we walk through our coals of fire or proverbial lions den like Shadrach Meshach and Abednego….

The words of Christ can be harsh and cut like a knife “for the word is powerful, sharper than any two edged sword, dividing soul and spirit and intents of the heart for there is nothing hidden from Gods sight for all things are opened and exposed to Him with whom (we each individually first, then with others) must give an account.

So then, “we must give the more earnest head to the things that we have heard lest we let them slip, for if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast and every transgression was punushed as  they were deserved, what makes us think thqat we shall escapre such a judgment if we neglect such a great salvation spoken by Christ first (Not Law) and confirmand by those of us who have heard and understood. And just as the parable of the planting of the seed, to see it day by day sprouting and growing and not knowing how.” This is the work of Gods Holy Spirit that continually provides constant lush fruit that’s tasty to the soul and spirit, “and there is nothing hidden from the sight of Him that we have to do.” To whom we must give an account. So that woe to those given a task to then shrug it off as though maybe what the Holy Spirit told you to do? Was not true but just your own self?

The contending for the faith is the same as any sport or defense in a court room
