Picking the flow of thought back up with Revelation 2:25-29. In our deep dive search to understanding of GOD'S mysteries concerning humanity as learned in Jesus who came as promised and became Christ at His baptism by John, when they fulfilled all righteousness. Jesus already having been in that state from birth as was John by virtue of family relationship and ties.
The Triumph of the Lamb
Revelation 2:25-29, "[1]Lay hold of that which your hearts [2]bear witness to [3]until you fully grasp the scope and understanding the most conclusive significance of [4]My coming! Seeing My victory as your victory makes you the over-comer. By embracing the [1]completeness of My works as your [2]treasure, you realize My authority in you to posses the nations. (See verse 25 - the [1]success of My works is to your credit. The words, ἄχρι, κρατέω, (G891, G2902) achri krateō, suggests, taking My words to its full conclusion. The word, (G5083) tereo means to treasure, to guard. See Psalm 2:7-8 [also verse 9 as referenced in the next verse, 27] "You are My son, today I have begotten You. Ask of Me, and I will make the Nations Your heritage, and the ends of the earth Your possession.' Paul quoted Psalm 2 in Acts 13:33, when he preached the resurrection of Jesus and in Ephesians 2:5 and Colossians 3:1-3, when he celebrated our co-begottenness! Also Peter when he announced that we were born anew when Jesus was raised from the dead! in 1Peter 1:3. The word, [2, G1849 from G1832 exesti, is the Third person singular present indicative of a compound of G1537 and G1510] exousia, is often translated authority, has two components, (G1537) ek , out of, source and (G1510) eimi , I am! The preposition [3, G1909] epi, suggests continual influence upon, from a position of authority.) You will [1]shepherd the nations with a royal scepter and shatter [2]their "alienated mindset" like a potter's vessel of clay. (He quoted Psalm 2:9, 'You shall break them with a rod of iron, and dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.' Sadly the Hebrew Masoretic Text uses the word [H7489] רָעַע , RAA - to be bad, be evil; to be displeasing, to be injurious, to be wicked, to do an injury or hurt, to be mischief; Instead of the same sounding word RA'AH with a Hay at the end and not an Ayin, which means (G4165) to Shepherd! Also in the Septuagint, the Greek word (G4166) poimaneis is used! You shall feed them as a shepherd nurtures his flock. With reference to the [2] alienated mindset that rules the nations, see Numbers 24:17, "A scepter shall raise out of Israel; It shall crush the forehead of Moab (the evil mindset)!" The Shepherd's staff was never intended to beat up sheep but to protect and free them from any possible threat!) In the same way that My Shepherd mission is [3]sourced in the Father, I have extended it to you! I also give you the [2]Morning Star! (I've attached part of the previous verse here; the Greek word, [1, G3844] para, with the genitive, indicating source or origin, close and immediate proximity, intimate connection, of union. See 2Peter 1:19, "Take My word as one would take a lamp at night; The day is about to dawn for you in your own understanding. When the [2] Morning Star appears, you no longer need a lamp; This will happen shortly its on the horizon of your own heart!" Rev. 22:16, 'I am Jesus. I sent My Shepherd-Messenger to be witness of these things to you before the churches; Confirming to them that I am the Root and offspring of David, the radiant Morning Star!' See notes on "The "Fallen Star," is the Morning Star, at the end of Rev. 9.) Now listen up with your inner ears! Hear with understanding what the Spirit is saying to the Ekklesia!" (See 1Corinthians 2:13, The impact of our words are not confined to the familiar wisdom of the world taught by human experience and traditions, but communicated by seamless spirit resonance, combining Spirit with spirit.") (The Mirror, with editing.)
We shall conclude this section in our next post, the LORD willing. Until then may He Who is in us all bring us all together again.
