Conclusion

Genesis 2:7 And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Without breath, which comes from God alone, we wouldn't be alive - at all! John 20:22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: Without rebirth - being Born Again Unto Christ, we won't live eternally - at all. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. He that believeth in the Son has the Father [1 Jn 5:12-13]. Isaiah 2:22 Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of? Do not look to man for answers, look to Jesus only - because He is the Only Way to Salvation. God Bless!

Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. 27 What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. 28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Matthew 10:26-28 If you don’t recognize that we are in the Last Days by now, might I suggest you ask the LORD to wash your eyes. The difficult times we are in indicates that we are at the end of days, which is why = all that is taking place in this world - is. What we are witnessing has been promised in the Bible.  For those whose hope is in this world, might I suggest you ask the LORD to wash your mind – because this is going to end in death.  Jesus says in Matthew 24:35 “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.” If you are one of those who are waiting for things to go back to n

Introduction AA. Friends, I am about to expand on your understanding regarding Biblical prophesy. If you follow along, I believe I’ll be successful, and you'll be blessed. AB. 2 Tim 3:16 - All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.  AC. That is, this will be done only through the Holy scriptures [Authorized King James Version].  AD. Heb 1:2 - Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son…; 1 Pet 1:19-20 - ...who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you; Gal 4:4 - But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son…;  AE. Heb 9:25-27 - ...for then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.  AF. The last days, the las

The Message Part B

BA. Ecc 3:1 - To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven; Ecc 3:11 - ...also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end;  BB. Rom 12:2 - And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.  BC. Based on our knowledge about this world, or that in our mind or heart, His first coming has occurred; however, I aim to expand your understanding. Therein lies the renewal teachings.  BD. Based on this, we should not hold too tightly to the things we’ve known or seen. That is, our imagination should not be used to oppose the possibilities of His power and mysteries [Matt 22:29 - ...ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God].  BE. Perhaps, you may be curious to know why His death is expressed in past tense if it has not occurred. We’ve seen this in verse

The Message Part C

CA. The heavenly Jerusalem, on the other hand, is the heavenly image of Christ [1 Cor 15:47] or the spiritual body of Christ [1 Cor 15:44]:  CB. Gal 4:26 - But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all; Heb 12:22 - But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels;  CC. Rev 21:10 - And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God.  CD. We should not let the parable about the heavenly Jerusalem in Rev 21:10-23 confuse us. The summary is that it shows how treasurable Jesus is [Luke 12:33-34 - ...a treasure in the heavens that faileth not...for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also].  CE. Christ, our inheritance which is treasurable, is eternal life [Mark 10:17-21]. He that will descend from above on the last day [1 Cor 15:47, 1 Thess 4:16, Rev 21:10] is the resurrect

The Message Part D

DA. Rev 21:1-23 - And I saw a new heaven and a new earth...for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.  DB. A curious thought: Why will Abraham be the father of many nations when we have and will have one Father in heaven [Matt 23:9]? Abraham will be the father of many nations because he is a figure representing Christ.  DC. Nations and kingdoms are another representation of lords and kings respectively [Matt 25:32, 1 Pet 2:9]. Eventually, we as nations (lords) and kingdoms (kings) of this world will be angels or nations (lords) and kingdoms (kings) of the Lord on the last day:  DD. Eph 2:5 - Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved); Luke 20:36 - Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection;  DE. Rev 11:15 - And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are

The Message Part E

EA. On the other hand, the Lord from heaven or Christ in His heavenly image is the perfect to come, the one denoted as a man, and the one who knows all things [1 John 3:20 - For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things].  EB. We already know that the scripture testifies of Christ [John 5:39]. Based on this, I can share this knowledge: the parable about the man who was born blind for the works of God to be manifested in him [John 9:1-3] is related to this discussion.  EC. His blindness from birth is a parable that shows that he did not remember his previous identity and the knowledge associated with this identity from birth.  ED. However, at the point in time referenced in 1 Cor 13:9, this same man is portrayed by the man whose sight was partially restored [Mark 8:23-24]. One of the things that his partial sight means is that he understands or knows in part [1 Cor 13:9].  EE. We can establish a relationship between this partial restoration of sight

The Message Part F

FA. Jesus Christ is a Spirit. The earthy image of Christ or the natural body of Christ [1 Cor 15:44] was earthly [1 Cor 15:53] and was created [Heb 11:10 - [ BY - BZ ].  FB. Moses also represented Christ when he led the people of Israel through the wilderness of the Red Sea [Exo 14]. The crossing of the red sea is a prophecy about the day of judgment. The wilderness is a parable name for this world [ BT ].  FC. We already know that Christ is the way, the truth, and the life [John 14:6]. He will make a way out of this world for His sheep. They will have eternal life while the goats will suffer eternal damnation [Matt 25:32-34, Exo 19:4 - 1 Thess 4:17, Isa 43:19].  FD. The biblical figures that represent Christ also include Samson, Eve, Adam, Saul, among others. Based on this knowledge, we should not be surprised that Samson was one of those praised alongside Samuel and Gedeon [Heb 11:32-34].  FE. The narrative about the death of Samson in Judges 16:25-30 is a prophecy about the death of

The Message Part G

GA. Rev 19:7 - Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready;  GB. Rev 21:9-10 - ...come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God.  GC. It is called a supper because the Holy Spirit or the Spirit of Christ [Rom 8:9] is the bread of life [John 6:48] which also means that He is the resurrection and the life [John 6:51 - John 11:25]. We can solidify this knowledge if we consider another verse:  GD. Luke 11:11-13 - If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone?...how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?  GE. Why is Luke 11:11-13 pertinent to our discussion? The scripture reveals that the Holy Spirit was not given at a point in time as referenced in John 7:39 [...for t

The Message Part H

HA. Rom 8:11 - But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.  HB. To establish this point, we know that he that is born of the Spirit has overcome this world [1 John 5:4]. Angels are not bound [Isa 61:1 - …and the opening of the prison to them that are bound]. They also can’t die [Luke 20:36 - 1 Cor 15:26].  HC. We also know that he that is born of the Spirit does not commit sin [1 John 3:9]. Angels do not commit sin because they are not under the law. The absence of law is the absence of sin [Rom 4:15 - …for where no law is, there is no transgression].  HD. That’s the reason they are alive or quick [Rom 14:9 - For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living] while we that are in the flesh are dead in sins.  HE. Nevertheless, it is important to note that angels have boundaries though they

The Message Part I

IA. Isa 9:7 - Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.  IB. Rev 11:15 - …the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever; Matt 28:18 - And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth [Rom 14:9].  IC. It is also important to note that the reason why the Son of God or Son of the Highest [Luke 1:31-33] is God [Isa 9:6] or the Spirit is based on our understanding of the virgin birth, the resurrection or marriage supper - His spirit is the Holy Spirit.  ID. His name as the everlasting Father [Isa 9:6] is based on the fact that He has children - angels are His children [Luke 20:36]. We already know that He is the eternal Holy Spirit [ HW ].  IE. His name as The

The Message Part J

JA. Zech 4:11-14 - Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof?... Then said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth;  JB. Mark 10:35-40 - ...they said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory… But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.  JC. It may be important to note that most of the figures or numbers in the scripture such as the thousand two hundred and threescore days referenced in Rev 11:3 are symbolic.  JD. Based on our discussion so far, we can understand that a prophet is an anointed or chosen one [Ps 105:15, Rev 11:3, Luke 23:35, Matt 12:18], so is Christ in some biblical contexts - Christ comes from a Greek word that means an anointed one.  JE. Based on this knowledge, the people in consideration in

The Message Part K

KA. Their names also include giants [Gen 6:4-5, Gen 13:13], wicked [Job 21:7, Job 20:5, Job 21:30], princes of this world [John 12:31, Eph 2:2], gods of this world [2 Cor 4:4], and children of disobedience [Eph 2:2].  KB. If we study the verses in JZ and KA , these names can be associated with people both inside and outside the physical church. They can also be found in positions of power [Job 21:7, Eph 6:12]. They can be renowned or influential people [Gen 6:4, *Jude 1:4] - giant denotes high, mighty, or renowned.  KC. How is this information relevant? For example, we know that fiery serpents bit the people of Israel to death [ ET - EX ]. We can see the fiery serpents and others as those that are blinding the minds of men from knowing the Truth:  KD. 2 Cor 4:4 - In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them;  KE. Matt 23:13 - But woe unto you, scribes and
