In the Hebrew language God is Echad. Meaning God is one. Deuteronomy 6.4 Hear O Israel, the Lord our God is one God!: The Lord our God, the Lord is one! Meaning; God is indissoluble, indivisible and inseparable in His original composition of Spirit and truth.
For this reason there is another construct than Spirit and truth, and that is time and matter. In this construct God is broken down into individual sound bites, not for a carnal manifestation, but for our mental rumination, consumption and growth. It is for our transformation from here to there. He who is eternally one and complete in Himself is immortal and invisible, then broken down into sound bites through the law, the prophets, to then be reassembled in us who are in Christ. This is spelled out in “The New Covenant” associated NOT with Jerusalem on Earth because that expired with the prophets, but with grand opening of “The kingdom of God at hand”. This is what all the law and the prophets promised, and what Christ brought to our understanding. It was first preached in its entirety in the time of Christ, and is still in effect in its entirety today because “The Kingdom of God is still,, at hand”.
God is indivisible and inseparable. He is only broken down in concept for us to realize who God is by degree, one revelation at a time, to the degree we are able to receive, until we learn and adopt the elemental principles not of the building blocks of Earthen elements, but of the invisible building blocks that makes up God in the spirit. For this reason “we are living stones built up a habitation for God in the Spirit”. But you don’t see that when you look in the mirror, unless your mirror is Gods Holy Spirit. (2 Corinthians 3.18)
This is Gods building now. With things of God in His natural before time construct of “that which is from the beginning”. The before time. The eternal one, to whom we are called to. This is the “Heavenly Calling”, the Eternal.
It is as we consume the assorted truths in scripture to rescript our mind, that we re-assemble the Son of God in ourselves in our inner man and become Godly. We become godlike in this way. Scripture contains the very DNA of God for us to be re-scripted. Because DNA is information, understanding information is knowledge. This is why we are instructed to grow in the knowledge of God. This is knowing God, receiving God as he is we become like Him. Where? In the spirit of our minds, the place where He interacts with us.
In the beginning was God in Word form, and as we consume His word we are modified internally and become “a new creation in Christ”. We are born again and re-created in this way. “Old things have passed away, all things become new” in this way and not another. We become immortal, invisible eternal and not time sensitive.
Like Paul chided with those returning to the old Jewish customs”you observe days months seasons and years. I am afraid that I’ve labored for you in vain”. They laid God out on a time frame called The Feasts and awaited God’s physical manifestations but physical God is not. And from Paul “I labor to have Christ formed again in you” because they forgot what they learned.
We are not to think of God in a time dispensed linier fashion, but a succession of continued revelations that transform the spirit of our mind. (Romans 12.1 and 2 Corithians 3.18) The word “transformed” from these two passages are the same Greek word generally translated “transfigured”, showing the place of our transfiguration.
God said “My ways are higher than your ways as the heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways higher than yours, and my thoughts higher than your thoughts”.
So when we receive the Son of God in Word form, not the man but the construct He was before He became flesh, being the elements He is made up of from before the Father spoke Him. We receive God in His true form “for in Him (The Son) dwells the fullness of the godhead body and we are complete in him who is the head of all principalities and powers”. If we partake of His invisible personage we understand of him in His Word, this is how we go through our own transformation, and transfiguration..
It is our journey here in time and matter to understand and realize more clearly what Word means and how to put Word on. How to put Christ on as scripture instructs us to do. We learn to understand what God is. We assimilate God in this way in the inner man and in no other way. How else do you acquire the invisible? “For we have this treasure in earthen vessels (our man) that the Glory and the Excellency may be of God and not ourselves” our outer body. It is other worldly.
We put on Gods invisible nature in an invisible way “from faith to faith” no other visuals. For we who have begun a good work in the spirit perfect nothing in a carnal way. He said “My words are spirit and they are life”. We see the “evidence of the things unseen” and we accept Him in the spirit of our minds. We use our invisible tool of faith to implement “the things that have been freely given to us in Christ”. In this way we see “the hidden things in Christ” and in this way we see our new self hidden there too. In this way we fulfill the verse that says “Father that they whom you have given Me may be with Me where I am”. Yes! Seated in the heavens in Christ”. With Him, like Him and enjoying the delicacies He enjoys of the pre-created order of all things.
We the elect are the true heirs of “all the things” of God in this way. We do not associate with the sit and waits of the second coming.
It is us “the called” the eklisia, who have arrived. To us who have been given the keys to the Kingdom, we have unlocked it and entered in. “No one has descended from heaven but he who has ascended to heaven who is the Son of man who is in Heaven” (John 3) And if we are in Him, we are in heaven because heaven is hidden “in Christ”. Because all things of God culminate in the spirit, in Christ in one. God is one, God is Echad.
Word is the full sum, the collection of all His concepts broken down in what is called the law and the prophets, fulfilled and expired in Christ, of invisible building blocks we call truths in the spirit. Truths displayed to our understanding to be reassembled in our inward man to the culmination of all truths to the truth. God. Echad. Did not the Christ pray for us to be one with Him as He is one with the Father? (John 17)
Just as like species communicate in their own language, fish to fish, bird to bird, and man to man. We must put on Word, the Son of God, the manifest mind of God, to communicate with our Heavenly Father, and to enjoy our Heavenly heritage. To have a clear relationship with God. This is the purpose of the cross. His “words are spirit and they are life”. We associate with Him like this and assimilate what we associate. “We speak what we hear and testify to what we see”. No impurities. “In Him” there is nothing else to talk about but Him. And we who are “in Him” know this truth where there is no darkness or other fabricated impurities. We have nothing left to say, but we say everything at the same time. He is complete in Himself and as we take Him in, we are as complete as His self. Like looking in a mirror. We see a reflection of Himself in ourself as His same self and His purpose is completed. Just as our Lord on earth said “Father I have finished the work you have given Me to do. I have given to those You have given Me, your Word and they have kept it”. And so we did. This is the finished work. Our transfiguration had its transformation and we are complete in Him. We have this “koinania”. We too are one. We are of the Echad in the Family of God by clothing our mind in this way. Because God is spirit and truth, we see our new person is spirit and truth also.
When you were told to put on the breast plate of love, what store did you buy that at? When you were instructed to “Let your feet be shod with the Gospel of peace”, who tied your shoes? When you were told to “taste and see that the Lord is good”, did you pallet that with your tongue or your mind? Do you see what we are talking about? Then you have the eyes to see of a different nature. A spiritual one.
It was said to the Israelites and Jews “seeing with their eyes they see not, hearing with their ears they hear not, for God has given them the spirit of stupor to be snared taken and caught.
But not so for us. We are of the elect. For those of us “who have eyes to see and ears to hear” of a different nature. A spiritual nature. Being born again not of the building blocks of time and matter that are to be disolved after your transformation, but by His words and His Spirit.
We are redeem not with disolvable silver or gold but the Word of God that endures forever. To be “a kind of firstfruits of His creating” being “born again” “born from above”. (John 3)
To conceptualize God in this way is to conceive in the spirit. To be genetically altered from the preconception of the carnal inception of the death passed on to the Adamic nature being “from dust to dust” to the life of God in Christ” receiving eternal life “from the spirit to the spirit”. For “He who has the Son has life, He who has not the Son has not life”. To our inheritance we arrive. We arise.
This genetic alteration we do In the “inner man”, in “the spirit of our mind”. We serve the Living God by reassembling these concepts passed on to us through scripture, to realize not so much only who He is but who we are now. That is why we look to the scriptures “as beholding our face in the mirror are being transformed into the same full image, from the glory to the glory, as by the spirit”. Not being a mirror to reflect our eye color or our skin complexion but the complexion of our spirit, and so we do. We put our new nature on, and as it says in scripture to “put on Christ”. This then is our purpose here on planet earth.
Our purpose is not to wait for another coming one to transition us. It was “the wicked servant who said “my Lord delays His coming”.
The New Covenant is already in place whereby God writes these things not on tablets of stone but on our invisible tablet we call the heart. We ponder these things and they are raised incorruptible in the spirit of our mind. We assimilate God by assembling His self in ourself to become one, indisolvable. We associate with God. We are of His kind of Spirit and truth.
It is scripture that contains the very genetic information of God given to us for our “transfiguration”. That word from the Greek is “metamorphos” and as a worm does not comprehend the flight and life of the butterfly, so too the carnal mind cannot understand the spirit. They are diametrically different. They are in fact opposite.
As we take communion not with a wafer, but by palleting His Word, we partake of Christ, we receive this genetic information. “We know Him even as we are known” as Paul said in Galatians. Like Adam knew Eve. A genetic transfer takes place. We display perfection in the spirit in our understanding and fufill in ourselves “till we all come to perfect understanding, to a full stature of Christ”. An exactitude of who He is, is our goal. We fulfill the verse in ourselves that says “when that which is perfect is come that which is in part is done away with” being the law, the sacraments and the Feasts.
The first Epistle of John says “that that which we have heard which we’ve seen which we’ve handled which we’ve touched essentially which we’ve consumed concerning the word of life. That which we declare unto you that which we manifest to you. And why do We do this? So that you too can have fellowship, koinania and oneness with us. A homoginization of God’s invisibleness with us who are spirit. To spiritually manifest with God. Our full sum duty, role and goal to God is to articulate these things.
It is in this way that the kingdom of God is at hand. Within our grasp.
God is Echad. God is One. We are one with God “in Christ”.
The Kingdom of God is at hand.

The Inheritance of Faith, Our Stock in the Eternal
Some people think the first contrast God created was light and dark saying “let there be light. God separated the light from the darkness and called the light day and the darkness night”. But light and dark was not the first contrast.

Each culture has defining features that are unique to it. It is made up of specific components like land defined by borders, a language, with leaders and a legal system to implement the laws that are specific to it. They generally have memorial celebrations to pass on to subsequent generations the things that make them unique. They define, renew and insure their identity. Change these and that people will cease to exist.
An important feature of many nations is a foundational document called a constitution. Constitution is a big word for ingredients. It defines what the citezines are made up of. These people are called constituents. They contain the ingredients in themselves as defined by their constitution that make them unique. Take away these ingredients and you change the people. You have a new constituency and a different people. People who are made up of different laws and values.
This is what Christ did. He came preaching “The Kingdom of God is at hand “. He was the revolutionary creating a new constituency of a new constitution called The New Covenant. The book of Hebrews says “this was first spoken by the Lord and confirmed by those who heard it.” He spoke first something different from the old covenant a new message to a new people. Such are we who are this new constituency being ingredients of The New Covenant founded on better promises than the old covenant. (Hebrews 8.6)
And the proof that it is something new and distinguishable different? Christ said “All the law and the prophets were till John. Now the Kingdom is preached and all are entering”. With these words He drew the proverbial line in the sand between His Kingdom and the kingdom of Israel and Jerusalem on earth. He was the demarcation line between the old Jewish kingdom and the new Covenant Kingdom of God in Christ that “cometh not with observation”. (Luke 27.22)
The phrase “The Kingdom of God is at hand” started then and was never retracted. A covenant is not in force till the death of the testator. Christ went to the cross for this cause. With His death the New Covenant is in force and the heirs receive their inheritance and need not wait for another saving.
The New Covenant is emphatically in force. (Hebrews 9+). The old reached its culmination to bring us to the New. Christ is the sole mediator for this New creation and needs no help from the prophets of the old whom He replaced. (Hebrews 1.1)
Peter said of the prophets “Of this salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you, To them it was revealed that, not to themselves, meaning not to the prophets, but to us[b] they were ministering the things”. Here distinguishing the two covenants.
“All (of the old) law and the prophets were till John”? Christ introduces a new constitution for a new constituency of those born with ingredients of the Word and of the Spirit. “He came to His own and His own did not accept Him, but to as many as receive Him, to them He gave power to become His Children, even to those who believe in His name. And also “of those born among women there is none greater than John the baptist. But he who is least in the New Covenant Kingdom is greater than he.” Who? Greater than John the Baptist or any other prophet for John was the greatest of them.
The “New Covenant” people, are different from the old. A new people with a new make up, distinguishably different from the old. The old was written on tablets of stone and the New on tablets of the heart. (2 Corinthians 3.3)
We are not of the circumcision of the flesh but the heart. The differences have no parallels. The old depicts the New only with contrasts. The law of sin and death in contrast to “The Spirit of life that is in Christ”. The operative here is “in Christ” not in Jerusalem on earth. These too are contrasts. This is “rightly dividing the word of truth”. And “if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. The culture of the law only mirrors the truth in contrasts. Opposites. “The law having shadows of these things but not the essence” (Hebrews 10.1)
Scripture says that Christ is the new mediator of a new covenant founded on better promises” than the old. In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. (Hebrews 8.13). That happened with the destruction of Jerusalem which was overturned by Titus.
The old was made up of artifacts of a bygone age founded on temporary fixes and band-aids designed to “make sin exceedingly sinful”. To make us good and dead till Christ.
At the proclamation that “The Kingdom of God is at hand” the deterioration of the old commenced. And if the changes to the Jerusalem of old were to be minor, He would have just had painted the buildings and maybe replaced the roof, but because the changes were so drastic and diametrically opposite, everything had to be redone. “Till not one stone shall be left upon another” was the Jerusalem’s demise (Mt 24.1). When Christ was on the cross, the physical temple was cracked so violently from the top to the bottom that the earth quaked and the bedrock shifted. (Mt 27.52) Yes clear through the foundation showing it unsafe for use of any sort. That is why scripture says “old things have passed away, all things have become new.” It is irreversible.
This expiration of that kingdom was so completely fulfilled, expired and put out of business so much so in fact that all debts were paid and the books were balanced and closed. And because that kingdom and all the Jews so emphatically rejected the New King of a New Kingdom, the New Law and the New Law giver and the New Mediator of The New Covenant, but of them? “There were none righteous, no not one” Romans 3.10. So on them was laid all the guilt for all the wrong doing, murders and deaths of all the prophets from Able till then. Why? Because there was not one prophet they listened to. Even as the people said “He is not my king, crucify Him”. And so they did. And so for this they were judged, condemned and annihilated. In this way they rejected the chief cornerstone. They were not recipients of the gift of God but His wrath. The books were settled, the wages of sin were paid. God owes them nothing He hasn’t already given them. God was patient, that none would perish but there was none righteous, their time of visitation had come. The Jews and Jerusalem are no more. They are fulfilled. Meaning, expired, shelved and put away saying. Now it is said “28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus”. Galatians 3. Jews have no preferential treatment.
She was found in total contempt as seen here.“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, but you were not willing! 35 See! Your house is left to you desolate; Meaning condemned, kaput, closed for business, out of commission.
The buildings and the streets were so turned over and so unrecognizable that there was no distinguishing features left. The people were ravaged, killed and trapped in that city because they rejected The King. Josephus and other historians from that era speak of the hellish horror they experienced while they ate each others flesh and gnashed their teeth in pain while Jerusalem was surrounded by armies. They knew not their time. “When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, do not go back in your house to retrieve a coat”. The Jews are gone,. That kingdom was demolished. It was condemned, put out of business and replaced.
You see the law was added only till faith comes and in the fullness of time God sent forth His Son born of a women to redeem those from the law. There is therefore no need for that law and the culture associated with it. It served its purpose of “making sin exceedingly sinful”. To go back to that is like jumping back into the pan on the fire for it will reap the same reward of rejecting the Savior. But many do just that as they look to another coming Jesus and another fulfillment of a Jerusalem and view scripture the same way as the Jews of old were condemned for. But “we have come to know and believe that Christ came to expire and replace the Old Covenant with the New covenant and New Kingdom of God in Christ. We the elect have received it. The rest were hardened. They like the old wine better for “no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins.” The Old verse the New. You choose.
When you take away the law and the prophets, we see that whole culture unraveled and replaced. But for those of us who know? it was “sown corruptible raised incorruptible, It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body”. (1 Cor 15. 44+). “In Spirit and truth”.
All the components of that culture were mutually dependent upon each other. You take away the law and the rest falls apart like liquefying bones and the body ,falls to the ground. You see that was the culture held spellbound to sin and death. With all the laws, feasts and sacrifices they were held in guilt and condemnation. That is why there is no condemnation to those who walk not by that law but by the spirit of the New Covenant. What the law couldn’t do, God did by sending His Son in the likeness of man, He condemned sin in the flesh with its culture and artifacts. Romans 8. This is the good news. The old was the gospel of death. With the cross death was paved over. That is why believers are “baptized into His death to walk in newness of life”. This is the gospel. The good news. Unless you are baptized in vain.
When Christ was speaking a parable of Jerusalem at the fig tree, upon seeing no fruit He said “let no fruit grow on you no more forever”, showing the eternal finality of the Jews judgment. He could not have said that if it was not true. They were condemned fulfilled, expired and tore down “till not one stone was left upon another. Woe to those who rebuild that abomination (that makes desolate), and they do “whose coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”
It is to take all the law and the prophets and that whole culture that Christ expired, being fulfilled, filled to the full. To reject the New King in His New Covenant Kingdom, then revert to the old and rebuild that is the epitome of rejecting Christ, despising His blood by rebuilding the things He replaced. They reject the New wine saying the old is better.
With lying signs and wonders, the implementation of fulfilled scripture for another coming kingdom. Christ rejected such a notion saying of His Kingdom that “it cometh not with carnal observation”. And those who say that it does? Christ said “do not follow them!”. (Luke 17.22). But so these persist and will receive the same condemnation. Woe! See that you do not refuse Him who speaks from heaven! The very thing the Jews rejected, so these do too today and they will receive the same judgment.
The purpose to replace the old was so important that Christ gave His life for that cause. Woe to those who despise His blood in hopes of rebuilding the old kingdom and implement the old sacrifices and those who help them. But for those who accept the New? We bear not our own judgment like they did but “On Him was laid the iniquity of us all and by His stripes we are healed”. For those who deny Him receive their own death and condemnation, but for us He diffuses ours.
When Christ said “The Kingdom is preached and all are entering”, He was not referring to entering that Jerusalem for they were already there, but the land of faith. He said “The time that is coming is now when you no longer worship in Jerusalem (on earth) but in Spirit and truth” hereby defining the New boundaries of His Kingdom of “where ever two or more are gathered in His name, there He is in their midst” fulfilling “the Kingdom of God is within you”.
In His name, meaning “in Christ” are the limitless, eternal boundaries. We who are constituted of spirit and Truth are this constituency made up of New constitution called The New Covenant. And because of this we can say that “now we are fellow citizens members and Saints of the household of God laid upon the foundation of the apostles (not concrete) with Christ our cornerstone” and “we are living stones built together a habitation of God in the Spirit”. Once again defining our boundaries of endless opportunities.
But many are still looking for the physical kingdom “that cometh not with observation” and allege themselves with the wicked servant who said “my master delays His coming” of which He does not. He stands at your door and knocks even now.
Of those who seek another? They constitute the apostates of our day of a “not yet kingdom for a not yet king at some incalculable point in the future when another savior will come. This kingdom is not “at hand” but out of reach. You can’t have it. They join their predecessors of whom it is said “you are not entering the Kingdom nor are you allowing those who are trying to do so “. They preach another gospel then “The Kingdom of God is at hand”
Christ is the same yesterday today and forever, and need not to appear for you to believe because you are measured by your faith in the God “who calls those things that don’t exist as though they do”. Why? Because they do.
So it was everything defining the Jews of old, be at the laws the feast the prophets the buildings and the artifacts that were disassembled unraveled to never be repeated because they were only a temporary addendum to the promises made to Abraham. Moses was an add on that was fulfilled. Now we are back on track. They are so emphatically fulfilled and destroyed, every debt and every payment cleared and made good so that it never needs to be revisited or rebuilt. Even as it says in Hebrews of the New Covenant in force, “He made the first covenant obsolete”. Even as scripture says that the law was added till Faith Comes, and in the fullness of time God sent forth his son born from a woman to redeem those who are under the law”. The redemption has already taken place. That is why that whole culture is history. Christ took the law that was contrary to us, nailed it to the cross and neutralized the effects of its accusations, sins, condemnation and fear. That’s what the law did. It kept you in the perpetual feasts and focus on sin and sacrifices. That is why “he who sins has neither seen Him or known Him” and that is why now living on the redemptive side of the Law the prophets and sin “the accusor of the brethren has been cast down “. Because “He has perfected forever those who come to Him”. And we did.
The Kingdom of God is emphatically at hand. And it has nothing to do with the imitation on earth. Do not be fooled by the Jerusalem of our day.

The Abomination of desolation and the Son of Perdition warned about in scripture is the re-collection of all the shadows and images of the things of God displayed in Jerusalem of the lae and the prophets that were expired in Christ. That culture was selected to show the things of God that were designed to show by contrast the things of the heavenlies but built on planet earth for explanation purposes only. To understand the invisible and eternal with temporary things. The “all things” displayed in the law and prophets and ministered by the priests with sacrifices on feast days were discriptions of invisible things that have been fulfilled in Christ. To be sown physically and raised in the spirit of our minds.
It is the representation of these things being rebuilt today, denying they were fulfilled by Christ, they seek to recreate and re-present another fulfilling of scripture and they call it another Jerusalem of a second coming to replicate the things the Jews were condemned for.
This is “the dillusion with all lying signs and wonders if possible to deceive the elect”. And just as Christ was rejected in that day, so these likewise do. To the Pharisees of that day who were looking for the Kingdom to appear? Christ said “do not go after them”. But many are going that way again in our day.
The expectations in Israel today of a Kingdom of God being built for the Messiah is as blantant of a rejection of the Son of God as the Jews of old and will receive the same demise. Which is? “Not one stone shall be left upon another”. Why? Because they too have rejected the Chief Cornerstone for an abomination that brings desolation at the coronation of their king. They too reject that “we are the living stones assembled for God in the spirit”. They reject that scripture and this” now we are fellow citizens, saints and members of the household of God” and need no physical address or recreation on earth for this to be true. Why? Because they, like their predecessors, “seeing with their eyes they see not, and hearing with their ears they hear not. Because it is with the heart you must see and hear to understand the things of God. Even as the Son of God, when he temporarily became a physical man “and dwelled among us” said to the Samaritan lady at the well, “the time that is coming NOW IS when you will not worship the Father In Jerusalem, but in Spirit, this is truth”. So todays Jerusalem in modern Israel is a lie and not Spirit or Truth and is therefore of Satan’s Dillusion.
The message of another Christ is a false christ. A mimicker a wannabe, a look alike and a deceiver. Another coming called the 2nd coming, a phrase not found once in scripture.
These reject the saving of the cross in pursuit of something more fanciful. They take all the law and the prophets that were fulfilled in Christ and say “no they are not! The next Jesus/savior/Messiah does this”. Professing to be wise they become fools and turn the Glory of the eternal, immortal, invisible only wise God into the image and expectation of a man. Romans 1
Even as Paul had said of these deniers “11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness”. God purposely gave them a back door. By diverting the use of scripture to reconcile us to God, rejecting God they re-purpose scripture to un-deify God and make Him a construct of time and matter. As if God could be a subject of and be limited by His creation but “even all the heavens cannot contain God”. He cannot be assigned to a locality in a city on planet earth with a zip code. Why? Because He is the “lol I am with you always, even through all the ages”. It is Him who fills everything everywhere all the time. It is “in Him we live and dwell and have our being”
It is on this page and in every article on this website using scripture to present to you the message first from Christ, given to the disciples, read more clearly through the New Covenant writings (in contrast to the old Covenant and Kingdom) that all the law and the prophets were till Christ, the old being fulfilled and expired He provided “a new and living Way” to the Father. That message is? THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND.

Jesus Christ said “for all the law and the prophets were till John. Now the kingdom is preached and all are pressing in”. And “the violent take it by force.”
The concept of a future coming messiah/savior to save the world denies the testimony God gave of His Son. John 3.17 “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him would be saved18 “He who believes this is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil”. Yes tearfully speaking, they reject the saving that is in process to those who are growing in this knowledge of God.
If we persist in knowing “end times” or a “second coming” or another Jewish kingdom on earth we pervert the gospel. He is the “Lo the volume of the book is written of Me”. We trade the good news for the bad news. My Lord delays not His coming because His comings and knocking at my door are many. The “Lo I am with you always” needs not to appear again in carnal form. We once knew Christ in the flesh but henceforth know we Him that way no more”.
Persist in this. Press into this. The other ways? Leave you thirsty.

Hebrews is 8.1 “This is the main point of what we are saying. We have this great high priest eternal in the Heavens, not made with hands but by God”.
The writer goes on to differentiate between the Eternal Priesthood of Melchizedek and the temporary levitical priesthood associated with the law. That Melchizedek was much greater. And he was in fact so much greater because Melchizedek was not only the most high priest,He was also the King of Peace in the Kingdom of Peace. And it was the testimony that he lives. That who lives? Christ as King in His Kingdom.
This Melchizedek like our Lord “having no beginning and no end of days” was what some call a theophany. A pre-incarnate portait of the Son of God.
And “being witness that He lives” is “He who is invisible, immortal and invisible “. The pre incarnate Christ the Eternal Living Word of God made manifest for us in the person of Melchizedek.
You see under the law there was Moses as the mediator of that Covenant and there was Aaron his mouthpiece called the great high Preist. But no where did they mention the “King of Peace”. The were far inferior.
The Marvelous thing about this Melchizedek, the great high priest is that he technically was not a great high priest like we understand with Aaron. Because the writer goes on to say that “if he, Melchizedek, were on Earth he would not be a priest” because the priests on Earth are of the order of the law based on sin. But Christ came one as the great high priest who went in the Holy place not made with hands but Eternal in the heavens not with the sacrifice of bulls and goats but the sacrifice of himself being a much greater sacrifice than the culmination of what all the law and the prophets had to offer.
Because “the order of Melchizedek” who is more aptly defined as a King from a Kingdom who performed the Priest act once at the end if that age to put away sin and that age. Because being priest was not something he continued to carry out.
This is what Christ did. The putting away sin once at the end of the ages was in reference to his sacrifice of himself at the cross. That Christ through the eternal spirit purges our conscience from dead works from external laws and of the guilty conscience of condemnation defined by the law.
So Melchizedek is much greater than the priest who worked for the law because in him contained so much more of the image of God than anything the law could ever portray.
If the Jewish law is touted today, with the priests and the feasts as the prefered way, that they are hell hent on rebuilding the temple, to re-establish the sacrifices for sin administered by a man preist. What need was there to have a great high Preist in the order of Melchizedek? The order of Melchizedek precedes and supersedes the ways the Jews hold on to. “For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law”. (Hebrews 7+8) The Jewish law has been changed.
Hebrews 8.1 So the main point that we are saying is that we have a great High Priest eternal in the heavens in the temple made without hands of man but by God”. That we have the true witness like Melchizedek being more than a priest. He is the King of righteousness from the Kingdom of Peace. Melchizedek was picturing an immortal eternal, invisible reality “of Him who lives”, as evidence of a King and Kingdom in the place finished from the foundations of the world”.
For what is a King with out a kingdom but a dreamer. Christ was a pre-incarnate King “born King” of a Kingdom “not of this age” being The King of Kings and The Lord of lords. Meaning not of time and matter.
As Paul said to those who reverted to the Feasts and sacrifices “You observe days months seasons and years. I am afraid that I have labored for you in vain”. Do I need to labor again to have Christ formed in you? I have my doubts about you”.
Many think Christ needs to become a king on earth according to Jewish law after He jump starts the sacrifices again, which is blasphemous and a blatant disregard of the blood of the cross and “insults the spirit of grace”.
This is the testimony of Melchizedek that far outweighs the testimony of a priesthood. He is The King of righteousness from the Kingdom of Peace eternal in the Heavenlies. The Kingdom that pre existed the beginning of the world, that post exists the end of the world, made with things other worldly as being the things not made of the hands of men but by the handy work of God.
We the people of faith that “confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.14 For those who say such things declare plainly that they seek a homeland. 15 And truly if they had called to mind that country from which they had come out, they would have had opportunity to return”. But today they recall that land, so in their ignorance God has provided a way for them, with all lying signs and wonders if possible to deceive the Elect. They are not fooling us.
For those who reject the Eternal King in the Kingdom of Peace, Christ, who expired the preisthood. This being Heavenly Jerusalem and not of earth”, it is these who are hell bent on making them on earth physically and reject the Father who seeks those who are “spirit and truth”. They”call to mind the country they came out of”. Which is “The spiritual city called Sodom where our Lord was slain”. More accurately called Jerusalem in our day. (Revelation 11)
So if you correctly understand the order of Melchizedek, you would accept these things. What things? The King of righteousness in the Kingdom of Peace as being an Eternal reality of “Heavenly Jerusalem come down from God of Heaven”.
The Kingdom of God is at Hand,. This is what Melchizedek testified to.
Peace = Shalome = Salem =
Jerusalem = city of Peace
Salomon = Salem and pictured the son of God and King of Peace and portrayed the same thing as Melchizedek.

He is whatever He wants to be and whatever you need. Be it a greater than Jonah, Soloman, the temple or whatever. He is “The fulfiller of all things”. All things are made new “In Christ” in this way. They are set up in the spirit of our minds. The place of our transfiguration. They are re-assembled there to be operational.

So for those who are waiting for the “day of the lord” to appear as defined by the sun, as if God is on hold, as if God is limited to these, don’t understand what the true day is. It is the day “in Christ”. And if “we walk in the light as He is light”, we are in that day. Wasn’t it the condemnation to those under the law stuck in the wilderness who rejected this call with the Lord saying of His Sabbath, His day without 24 hour increments, His day that has no night, The Lords day, The day of The Lord:
4 Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. 2 For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them,[a] not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.3 For we who have believed do enter that rest, as He has said:
“So I swore in My wrath,
‘They shall not enter My rest,’”[b]
although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. 4 For He has spoken in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: “And God rested on the seventh day from all His works”; [c] 5 and again in this place: “They shall not enter My rest.”

FOR THE ELECT, BEYOND THE LAW
We whose vessels are filled to the full have received the fullfillment of all things. It is enough that a student be like their master, like their teacher. However a student is not better than his teacher but we may be equal to. So we are.
This is the mystery of the ambassador. Christ said 12 If I have told you earthly things (like the law and the prophets) and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? 13 No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. And Christ who was on earth, said He was in Heaven, because He is Heaven. “Those who are born again can see the Kingdom. And those born from above can enter the Kingdom (John 3). We the elect who are fulfilled in Christ are in Heaven also because we are in Him. All things are made new in Christ in this way. And because He descended and also re-ascended, He fills all and all, meaning everything everywhere all the time. That is what eternal means.
We the elect are not only beyond the law. We also are no longer subjected to the elements of the earth as being a restriction from our New residence. We know our abode.
This is why “The Kingdom of God is at Hand, and all are pressing in”. Have you responded to that invitation?

Christ came to complete the Law. To satisfy the demands of the Law. To silence the law. To fulfill the Law. To put it to rest. To expire and shelve the old testament law with all its necessary mechanisms of implementation including the prophets, the priests, the feasts, the tabernacle. The whole government and culture having served their purpose of portraying a physical representation of “the Kingdom of God”. Having failed miserably the stewardship of these things has been given to another and the previous one judged “till not one stone shall be left upon another”. And “on them was laid all the blood of the prophets who were slain from Righteous Abel to Zachariah”. Why? To judge, condemn, put out of business and expire the old and make way for the New. The New Covenant with all its articles for implementation of “the New and Living way” now in effect with the blood of Christ. The old wine for New. The old is eternally fulfilled, expired and shelved. Hebrews 8.13 In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete”. This is what “fulfilled” means.
Kind of like with a prescription. You go to the pharmacy they read your prescription and they fill it. When you use that bottle up if that was all your prescribed, you could not refill it. Your prescription had been fulfilled. You have not been prescribed anymore. You got your last filling. It’s done. So too with the Old Covenant. When the fullness of time had come, God sent forth His Son born of women, to redeem those who were born under the law.” That event is History. All the law and the prophets are till John. Now the (true) Kingdom is preached and all are entering. And since that culture was annihilated, because they rejected Christ saying “He is not our King” and having received the judgment due their crime of rejecting an egternal King, they received an eternal penalty. And if God restores that kingdom? He owes the last Jewish culture a big apology.
Christ spoke a parable of Jerusalem saying “He was hungry. 13 And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. 14 In response Jesus said to it, “Let no one eat fruit from you ever again.” Period Ever again! Why? because “There was none righteous, no not one”.
We can also see another analogy or parable with a prescription when it is said that it has expired. Meaning that you have kept it past its useful period and now it is no good. That is why Paul said he was alive once without the law, but when the law came sin revived and I died. I see then that the law is good, but the way to keep the law is not in me. So the purpose of the law is to kill us so that we may have eternal life. But once we have died to the law, we are freed to live to God. You cannot do both at the same time. When we are free from the law, to go back to it is like going back to prison for a crime to re-serve the term. It’s called double jeopardy. The penalty of the crime was already paid by Christ. “On Him was laid the iniquity of us all. We are lo longer held accountable for the crime. We are free from the law, the short comings and the penalties. We are “a free man”. And the law of the spirit of life in Christ has set me free from the law of sin and death” in this way.
The law with all its articles, sacrifices, feasts and such serve me no purpose. The law has been fulfilled in Christ for my freedom. He who the Son sets freed is truly free.
Christ came to fulfill all the law and the prophets. And if He returned to the father leaving any iota, or tittle of the law and the prophets unfulfilled then he did not accomplish his task. And He could not say it has been fulfilled. He could not enact the New Covenant. And Paul could not have said “old things have past away, all things become new”.
This is the conclusion of all the law and the prophets. The fulfillment.
