Watch for His Coming!


Posted on July 22, 2014 by ADMIN

Watch comes from the Greek word; gregoreuo, means to be awake, vigilant, alert.  The root of that word comes from the Greek; egeiro, the idea of collecting ones facilities. To waken from sleep, sickness or disease. From; egersis, which means a resurgence from death.    It is these words are used in association with resurrection and ascension and the watching of them. More specifically being awake and watchful is about the Lords coming in power. “Watch for you know not the day or the hour that your Lord is coming be it the 1st, 2nd or 3rd watch. But if that evil servant

THE PURPOSE OF THE GOSPEL


Posted on July 13, 2014 by ADMIN

           The purpose of the Gospel is to enter the Kingdom Now!   The Jewish leaders in the time of Christ were chided by Him saying “you are not entering the Kingdom, not only that, you are not allowing those to enter who are trying to do so”. They could enter then as we can now. The kingdom of God is now!   The whole purpose and the sole purpose of the gospel is to get people into the Kingdom of God now. To be reconciled now. Not just a saying or a document but an eternal reality.

Antiochus Epiphanes And the Appearing of God


Posted on July 12, 2014 by ADMIN

  Antiochus Epiphanes was a historical figure known as the anti-Christ spoken by Daniel the prophet. We learn that his birth name was “Mithradates”. He changed his name when he ascended the throne. He gave himself the name Antiochus Epiphanes, and means “God Manifest”.    Epiphanes comes from the greek word “epiphane” which is where we get the English word “epiphany” which means a manifestation, a striking appearance. Antiochus was in the place of God proclaiming that he was God. That he was God Epiphanes, meaning God manifest. In other words “look at me, I am God” What a pompous remark.

Transformed by the face of God.

1 John 3 New King James Version (NKJV) 3 Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God![a] Therefore the world does not know us,[b] because it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 3 And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure”.   Now we are His children, not of a carnal nature

Repetitious patterns and cycles


Posted on July 6, 2014 by ADMIN

We mentioned in previous articles that the purpose of the church,  meaning “the called out ones, is the same purpose as the general assemble or festive gathering of the Israelite’s. It is to learn and apply, or put on the truths practiced through the repetitious patterns and cycles, which are designed to bring us to a full knowledge of Christ.. “Till we all reach the full stature of the son of God” The repetitious patterns and cycles were the acts and the observances that can become redundant and un-profitable, like the Sabbath, the Passover, baptism, and so on. These are

7/20/14 Gods perfect will


Posted on July 2, 2014 by ADMIN

1st Corinthians 13.12b We know in part and we see in part, but when that which is perfect has come that which is in part will be done away with.  Learn what the perfect is.   Rom 12.2 that you may know what Gods good acceptable and perfect will is. And when you know it, you are no longer subject to guardians and tutors of that which is in part. You are no longer held captive to the elements that are bound by days, months , seasons and years. Galatians 3.9-11   He who we understand by performing the cycles associated with time and matter, being

TODAY, THE LORDS SABBATH REST

TODAY, THE LORDS SABBATH REST APRIL 3, 2014 LEAVE A COMMENT In the Melchizedek post we talked about the King from the before time. The priest who is King or more importantly this King that is also priest. Without father or mother meaning no beginning  or end of days who lives continually. Of whom it is witness that He lives. Who? The eternal before time one. Let us go on about this eternal topic, the before time, that which is now and is after time. To that day which is not measured by days months seasons and years. To the day

The High Priest and His Breast Plate


Posted on June 22, 2014 by ADMIN

Caiaphas the high priest made the statement that “it is expedient that one man (speaking of Christ) should die for the people, and not only that but that He would gather together in one (in Christ) all the children of God scattered abroad. This is about His body and a great truth. As He said “where two or more are gathered together in my Name there am I”, gathered “in Christ”. And as we are gathered to these eternal truths that were with the father, we are gathered to something much more than a city  at a specific point in

The Body of Christ, the called out and the Valley of dry bones.


Posted on June 21, 2014 by ADMIN

Christ’s body seen in Israel In I Corinthians 10 Paul draws upon old testament teachings of Israel saying “they all passed under the cloud, and through the sea That they drank from the rock and that rock was Christ. He drew a parallel between Christ and Israel. Exodus 4.22 says that Israel is Gods first born son but is it really? No it pictured Christ, and as Israel was called out of Egypt so too was Christ. (Mt 2.15  ) That Christ was the fulfillment of that prophesy. But Israel was a visible picture of the body of Christ as being

God as neighbor


Posted on May 27, 2014 by ADMIN

God in times past spoke to the fathers by the law and the prophets in fragments through a series of condemnations, judgement, mourning’s, and woes, followed by a promise of renewal. This renewal was never meant to be part of the creation of time and matter but a metamorphosis into something else. It was described in terms mankind would understand as being a kingdom but never meant that the kingdom would be in a physical sense.  Man thinks of a kingdom in terms of physical components having a capitol city with walls structures and buildings and having a governing body and, from

The Revelation of Adam and The foreshadowing of Christ’s Revelation


Posted on May 22, 2014 by ADMIN

Genesis 1.26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Jesus in John 3 said of himself “We speak what we know and testify what we have seen”. He spoke of himself as being plural which is

The Eternal Day, 2 Peter 3.18


Posted on May 20, 2014 by ADMIN

In 2 Peter the last verse of the book has been translated exhorting us to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.   According to the footnote in Marshall’s Greek interlinear page 931, the phrase “now and forever” is more appropriately rendered “in this age and “the eternal day“.   The “eternal day” is the mystery here as it always is, it is eternity, the other age that is not in the realm of time and matter with days on 24 hour cycles. The

See that you do not refuse Him who speaks from heaven”


Posted on May 20, 2014 by ADMIN

See that you do not refuse Him who speaks from heaven” He who calls us to His eternal glory through Jesus Christ”   This is the place of our calling. We should not be waiting for a kingdom to come but accept the invitation to ascend to the voice now. To “lay aside every weight and sin that snares us and “run the race with endurance. Run where? to the voice. To Him who calls Scripture lays out the concept of becoming new. We exchange the old for the new now, and we do this by faith. We put off maliciousness,

IS NOT THE LORD IN ZION? WINESKIN PART 2


Posted on March 22, 2014 by ADMIN

IS NOT THE LORD IN ZION? WINESKIN PART 2 MARCH 22, 2014 LEAVE A COMMENT EDIT Here from Jeremiah 8.19 it says “Is not the Lord in Zion? Is not her King in Her?”  Is this fact or fiction? Maybe an event in the future? We could take this as the earthly city Zion but that would make the Lord a vagabond and a sojourner. The earthly city being built and destroyed, ransacked and rebuilt over and over. Like the tabernacle in the wilderness put up, take down again and again. But why? To build a city on puny planet earth for

NEW WINE, NEW WINE SKINS, A NEW UNDERSTANDING MARCH 19, 2014 LEAVE A COMMENT EDIT Luke 33 Then they said to Jesus, “Why do the disciples of John fast often and make prayers, and likewise those of the Pharisees, but Yours eat and drink?” 34 And He said to them, “Can you make the friends of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them? 35 But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them; then they will fast in those days.” 36 Then He spoke a parable to them: “No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new

**THE NEW CREATION MYSTERY EXPLAINED PART 1


Posted on February 9, 2014 by ADMIN

THE NEW CREATION MYSTERY EXPLAINED PART 1 FEBRUARY 9, 2014  LEAVE A COMMENT EDIT God created man in His image; male and female. God chose to display His hidden attributes in the male and female as they came together. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his bride. We know from the creation account that God spoke. When God spoke His Word came forth. When God spoke His Breath/Spirit came forth. The Father, being the source, then the Son and Spirit. The Spirit brooded over the face of the waters. Not that one

A REMINDER OF KINGDOM REALITIES NOW JANUARY 30, 2014 LEAVE A COMMENT EDIT I know you know these things but it’s good to keep it fresh. Col 1.13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the Kingdom of His Son. 2 Pet 1.3 His divine power has given us everything that pertains to life and godliness. 2 Pet 1.4 We are partakers of the divine nature having escaped the corruption of the world. These are all past tense. Since we have these things our spirit is already where our body wants to go, but our body

**GODS UBIQUITOUS KINGDOM


Posted on January 26, 2014 by ADMIN

Ubiquitous meaning, existing or being everywhere at the same time : constantly. In other words every where, all the time, forever. This is how I explain the Kingdom of God and Christ, also being heaven. This place cannot be defined as a single place and this place is not related to time. It is a timeless truth, hence, eternal. Meaning eternity past and eternity future. We usually think that eternity means from now forward but that is not true. To be eternal is to be timeless. Either God is or He isn’t. We know Him as alpha and omega, beginning and end and

**THE BOOK OF JOHN AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.


Posted on December 28, 2013 by ADMIN

THE BOOK OF JOHN AND THE HOLY SPIRIT. FEBRUARY 17, 2014 LEAVE A COMMENT EDIT The interpreters of the book of John used great liberality to defend their understanding of the Godhead they call the “trinity”. They homogenized the various terms and Greek words, like “autos” which means self, “that one” and ‘they”. These gender neutral terms are all brought forth into English and capitalized into the male words “He” and “Him”. These words they applied to verses that described the Holy Spirit, the helper, the comforter, our other parent, so that we are not left to be orphans. I sure hope
