What many may call "New Age" is not so, it is a higher intelegence.

I shall use the Mirror Study Bible, authored by Francois du Toit, to gain from its insight.

I shall for this area draw from John's letter as he walked with both Jesus Christ and Paul for some 30 plus years before he wrote his memoirs of what he heard and saw. For example none of the other disciples better captured the conclusion of the LORD'S mission as Christ than does John, "In that day you will know that as I am in My Father, you are in Me and I am in you!" of John 14:20. John had no desire to outwit the others in giving an even more accurate accounting of Christ's record. The life that was manifested within his gaze and then tangibly within him he embraced in fellowship of the highest order. He wrote of his most extend reality to his immediate audiences, as well as the next generations in 1John 1:4 where we find this; "In the beginning this to complete your joy!"

Now unlike Matthew and Luke who wrote some 30 years prior to him, John did not bother to locate Jesus in the setting of His natural lineage. Instead John declared, "In the beginning was the Word!" Before history or the laying of the worlds foundations were even laid the Word was!

That being stated humanity pre-existed in the logic of GOD! John understood that the Word was both the eternal source and destiny of all things and that nothing could ever reduce or confine the Word to an isolated island experience, neither could the Word be trapped or caged in by human doctrine or tradition ie,,,religion. For the authentic integrity of GOD'S thought would forever be preserved and celebrated in His carnation within His created beings ie,,humanity; all human life is the uninterrupted present and future of the Word.

Have you even noticed how often John made use of the word, egeneto, from ginomai, meaning birth or origin in the first chapter: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was face to face towards GOD, and the Word was (ie,,is) GOD. All things came into being (ginomai, from genos, to give birth to) through Him; and nothing has any authentic existence outside of their origin (ginomai) in Him.

In Him is life and this life is the light of all men. This light is shone in the darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not (kata+lambano, to seize upon, to grasp). This true light that enlightens everyone has come into the world. The world was made (ginomai) through Him, yet the world knew Him not; He came to His own (this being all of humanity, not just Israel), as as Israel received Him not (para+lambano, to grasp, associate with as in be in agreement with).

For in everyone who by His faith comprehends Him to be their true origin (lambano, comprehend, grasp, identify with), in them He sanctified and sanctions the integrity of their sonship (didomi, in this case to give something to someone that already belongs to them, thus to return to), the fact that they already are His own, born from above by the resurrection, they had their beginning and their being in Him (eksousia, integrity, legality, authentic authority, legal grounds)! Jesus came to reveal humanity's true sonship; He vindicated and sanctified our origin and design making all of humanity innocent from that instant and forwords.

"And the Word became (ginomai) flesh (ie,,human) and now the tabernacles in (en) us!" Not just 'among us' as religion proclaims and so do many translators and translations suggest! Of John 1:1-14. For; "As He is so are we in this world!" 1John 4:17.

Now I am about to do somethings that I have not done before as I have already posted this. Now taken for John 1:2;

John 1:2 "The beginning mirrors the Word face to face with GOD," Now nothing that is witnessed in the Word distracts from who GOD is. "If you have seen Me, you have seen the Father." (John 14:9) The Word that was from the beginning was not yet written nor spoken; It was simply face to face (Gen. 1:26-27) with GOD! The beginning declares the destiny of the Word, He will always only be who GOD is and concludes in GOD.

I am bring this to where we find that we echo, resonate Him, the Word, as light is alive as a sound force. A means of communication, within those of a higher force or the renewed mind of Romans 12:1-2, that same level of intelligence that Adam had in Genesis 2.

New thought part two

 Continuing on from John 1:12-13 with 14, 15-16 where we find the following first 14: "Suddenly the invisible, eternal Word took on visible form - the Incarnation, on display in our flesh and with our blood in Person, as in a mirror! In Him, and now confirmed in us! (Approved of GOD in our co-resurrection) The most accurate tangible exhibit of GOD'S eternal thought finds expression in our human form and life! The Word (Logos) became a human being (through the lawful entry process of natural birthing as promised in Genesis 3:15); We are His address; He resides in us (Genesis 1:26-27, 2:7)! He captivates our gaze and full perception! The glory we see there is not a religious replica; He is the authentic begotten Son from the dead, in Him we recognize our true beginning (Genesis 1:26 being redeemed, reconciled to its original origin). The glory that Adam set aside, returns in fullness! Only grace points to source/origin that only communicates truth in complete context! (For grace and truth came through Jesus Christ, His being the first born from the dead declares our new birthing, Colossians 1:18, 1Peter 1:3, Galatians 2:20)"

Now for John 1:15-16 where we find the following: "John the Baptist raised his voice to announce emphatically that Jesus was what his ministry and prophetic message was all about. He declared that Jesus, though younger than himself, since he witnessed His birth, ranked above him in prominence and in His Messianic mission - because in His I-am-ness, He always was preeminent. (Later Jesus reminds us of this when He says before Abram was I am!) He is the resource and source of all Life, our completeness! Everyone may now realize their own completeness as is evidenced in Him. For this is grace beyond grace! (Where grace prevails against the tide of futile efforts of religions manufacturing to redefine ourselves according to the works of the Law. This Paul would mentioned about Abraham, who hoped against hope!)"

A new thought part one.

This is taken from John 1:12-13, "Everyone who realizes (gasps and comprehends their identity with) their association in Christ, are convinced that He is their original life and that His name is humanity's family name, which defines them, GOD gives the assurance that they are indeed His offspring, begotten of Him; He sanctions the legitimacy of their sonship. These are the ones who discover their own Genesis in GOD, beyond their natural conception! This is not about blood lineage or whether we were a wanted - or an unwanted - child; This is about our GOD - begotteness. For humanity is His dream come true and not an invention of our parents. We are indeed the greatest idea that GOD has ever had!" (Look at Jeremiah 1:5, 29:11 & John 3:2-7)

The revelation of Christ in you. Now! Part of our make up, part 2

In this post we shall dig more deeply into what GOD did through the execution of His Son that for our enemy remains a mystery and secret. The old system of washing or water baptism as practiced by Israel, because of hardness of heart; Now is seen as the joint death of all of humanity on the new altar of the Cross, the old systems under the Mosaic Law, having passed away or as stated within scripture were rolled up and placed on a shelf, in this action. As it only dealt with the external, flesh realm of mankind and was just superficial at its best (Mark 7:4, Matthew 11:24). All of humanity from the first Adam on through the last human being has been purchased (by the blood and water) or redeemed by the action of the Cross this leaving no one out, except those who refuse to acknowledge their redemption/righteousness. (Through the Redemption of the world "in the man Jesus Christ.") Under the old system only Israel was dealt with while in the new not only Israel but all of human form are dealt with. In a 'new baptism' held in secret of GOD's doing and purpose (Deuteronomy 29:29) until the birth of the promise seen in Genesis 3:15. We know Him as the incarnate Word (Emmanuel) or the promised one (Messiah/Christ) and what happened thereafter for many remains a mystery still, especially for those snared by religions deception (this of Gen. 3). Religion clouds the heart and blinds the mind by utter darkness, in unbelief. The poisonous words spoken by the serpent of Genesis 3. That being both GOD and humanity's enemy (known as the evil one, dragon, serpent, devil and satanas) took upon himself, to draw away our attention from GOD by thoughts of a wrong mindset (the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, Gen. 2:15-17), a hardness of heart, a way of thinking/perception, hearing and seeing things. These being the evil one's tools as attested by the temptation of Jesus (Matthew 4, Luke 4 and John 14:30). The Cross forever changed the course and resource of humanity, and how we think and see and hear by its baptism removing the things that obstruct our vision. GOD in His wisdom forever changed the course and outcome for humanity, He took us back to the beginning (Gen. 1:26-27, 2:7 this of our original design of innocence), where woman was taken from the side of man (Gen. 2:21) and in Jesus He opened His side (Isaiah 53:5, John 19:34) to bring about our healing, to bring us to our awakening of understand (of Hosea 6:2) of the mysteries of Christ. So now today our baptism is that of being one in Christ and His being one within us (John 17). As we have seen in the 2211 posts of this blog Jesus has many names and titles among which is "the last of days," and this for good reason, as stated earlier all of the futuristic language of natural and spiritual things began an end in Him who is the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last or end. So for the "baptism," we are counted in Him, who is in us from the beginning, before time began (Acts 2:17, Hebrews 1:2 and James 5:3). This known as Baptism, to surround and fill to over flowing with the incarnate word, like the air we breath in, it surrounds and fills all things, it is also in our blood as the substance of life.

Now for the Jew water baptism with repentance was their requirement as witnessed to by John the Baptist, as this was his mission statement to bear witness of the one called Christ and Messiah of Deuteronomy 18:18 of 15-22.

The revelation of Christ in you. Now! Part of our make up. part 1

 My last post was on the 9th of July...since then I have been pondering what area of Christ in us restored to our original design I should look at in-depth. And after watching and hearing things spoken of on Facebook and TV, I has come to this, what is baptism in and by the Spirit? When does this take place and what did Jesus mean when He stated that the Spirit of Truth would guide us into Him and His reality? And who besides myself have heard Him ask, 'Are you ready to take My Yoke upon you and learn of Me?' Matthew 11:29? Or who has had the LORD show them in Him while He hung on the cross and thereby bring home to meaning of Galatians 2:20 of 19-21 which states in the ESV: "For through the (Mosaic) Law I died to the (Mosaic) Law, so that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the (Mosaic) Law, then Christ died for no purpose." 

Or how about the new Mirror Study Bibles, with some editing, rendition of these verses? "The (Mosaic) Law [1]demands (my) My death; grace reveals that in GOD's mind Jesus (in our human form) died our death (having with stood our judgment there in). So as far as the (Mosaic) Law is concerned, I'm a dead man but as far as GOD is concerned I'm alive! (The word [1, G1223] dia, expressed as through, means because of; suggesting here that the law was what demanded my death! But in the mystery of GOD's genius, Jesus died humanity's death, have put on our human form our humanity; which means, in GOD's belief, I died to the old system of trying to please Him with my own good behavior! We might as well admit it! No works or efforts (this includes beliefs) of our own as well as our best attempts to attain to a righteousness based on us getting ten out of ten all the time, fails! There is no way to get around this!) So here I am dead (a form or expression of spiritual sleep) and alive at the same time! I'm dead to the old me I was trying to be and alive to the real me (of my origin) which is Christ in me! Co-crucified, now co-alive! What a glorious entanglement! I was in Him in His death (as I was in Him in the beginning, Gen. 1:26-27, 2:7.); Now He is in me (again awakened) in my life! For the first time I'm free (meaning free born from above) to be me in my skin, immersed in His faith in our joint-sonship! He loves me and believes in me! He is GOD's gift to me! As I am His reward for His obedience (Ps. 2). (The verb (G4957) συσταυρόω, from (G4717) stauroō, is in the Perfect tense, indicating that not only was I crucified within Christ in the past, but I am existing now in the present condition. How can any human effort improve on this! Look again at Hosea 6:2 and Ephesians 2:5 also Romans 7:6. But now we are fully released from any further association with a life directed by the rule of the Mosaic Law, we are dead to that system which once held us captives, now free-born to be slaves to the newness of spirit-spontaneity rather than age old religious rituals, rottens, ceremonies, traditions, customs and habits imitating the mere face value of the written code. The moment one awakens to and exchanges spontaneity with rules, the edge of romance is compromised!) It is an insult to the grace of GOD to prefer Moses to Jesus! If the Law could justify us then Jesus wasted His time dying our due death and suffered our due judgment! (That would reduce salvation that comes after redemption to a ludicrous contest between our obedience and the obedience of Christ Jesus! Rom. 5:19)

The LORD willing I shall carry this on shortly.

"The Secrets of GOD," as revealed by John in the Revealtion of Christ,some thoughts on a few subjects part 3 of 3, hidden insights, as seen with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

Well we have made to the end of the Mirror Study Bible's new approach to the hidden things of GOD. That have been hidden from the every day eyes of the unredeemed in mindset people, who stick by the old style of learning. That being repetitiveness, rites by regurgitating the same things over and over, "like a dog that returns to its own vomit," all the while believing that they are hearing from GOD. Why? You may ask, for me the answer seems simply. They don't sit quietly and wait upon GOD to speak first. So lets see what the author has to reveal in his last thoughts.


Thoughts on the Word Proskuneo - often translated, worship:

John 4:23-24, "The end of an era has arrived - the future is here! Whatever prophetic values were expressed in the external devotional forms and rituals are Now eclipsed in true spirit worship from deep within, [1]face to face with the Father - acknowledging our re-genesis in Him - this is His delight! The Father's desire is the [1]worshiper more than the worship! (The word often translated worship, [1, G4352 is from G4314 pros, a preposition of direction; forward to, that is, toward, and probably a derivative of G2965 kuōn, dog (meaning to kiss his master’s hand)] proskuneo, is from (G4314) pros, face to face and kuneo, which I would like to believe to be a derivation of koinonia, meaning joint-participation; Rather than the (G2965) kuon which means dog. I know, some tried to connect the idea of a dog licking its master's hand, which then became a possibility of kissing. I prefer the divine face to face koinonia encounter to define true worship! Although, I do believe that its the dogs nature, often referred to as man's best friend because of the very nature of their devotion to their master, has its Greek root connection - while koinonia is a friendship word to begin with and in it is therefore possible to see its etymological link. This is the only reference to the noun [2, G4353] proskunetes, which means to adore, worshiper, used in the NT.) GOD is Spirit and not a holy mountain or a sacred city with man-made shrines! Return to our Source - the Father is our true fountainhead!" (We are not defined by our physical birth, our domestic life, our history, our culture or our religion!)

Dr. John Mastrogiovanni a Hebrew scholar and author of the book "Melchizedek," wrote the following rendering of the word proskuneo:

Keeping in mind that Hebrew men were writing the NT in Greek, their thought process was still wrapped around the Hebraic, not really the Greek in the true cultural sense.

There is a Hebraism that John was using.

"I totally agree with you that John was not referencing a dog like that, and definitely not trying to suggest that we are as mere dogs wagging our tails licking Jesus' hand! Then you added that koinonia, joint-participation would be preferred as far as a root referenced; Which some Greek scholars may try to take issue with. I do believe the Holy Spirit was showing you something here...."

Caleb (H3612) כָּלֵב, kâlêb, is from a form of H3611, כֶּלֶב, keleb, means to yelp, a male prostitute: a "dog." Why on earth would such a name be given to anyone, let alone a receiver of the Divine promise? Because in Hebrew NOTHING IS AS IT APPEARS. (This is a deep revelation from GOD that all need to take to heart!) One of the principles of Hebraic/Spiritual Biblical interpretation is known as "Roots and Branches" this has little to do with verb roots and their child roots (though that is very important), rather it has to do with using a physical reference (a branch) to describe a spiritual root. The entire OT was first orally given, then written with that as the method and has been interpreted that way for almost 4000-5000 years (this is a standard according to all Hebrew teachers from Israel.) So when we apply this Hebraic logic, Caleb כָּלֵב, is actually a contraction of two words "כָּ" (the letter Kaf, which means Like) and "לֵב" (the word, Lev, which means HEART, by extension "לֵ"(Lamed) means THE HEART YOKED ABOVE, and "ב" (Beth) meaning HOUSE OF GOD. In short, "dog" (in John's synoptic gospel's case) has nothing to do with what appears to be obvious in point of view of Greek translators and commentators; But the Hebraic notion of one having a LIKE HEART....A HEART YOKED ABOVE IN THE HOUSE OF GOD. (of Mat. 11:29*) Remember the discussion is where one would worship, the mountain or Jerusalem, Jesus says, 'neither, but makes reference to "spirit and truth,'" which would be the one with "like heart."

Caleb כָּלֵב was no dog in his behavior, he was a man with the like-heart of GOD. Thus the Greek reference to dog may not be erroneous in the Hebraic sense, BUT! The interpretation that most give from a Greek perspective about a dog licking from the hand, is the usual misunderstanding of Hebraic/Spiritual logic. This is why, in our opinion, such traditional views only add to this misconception of GOD that the church/religious world has had; The typical angry Schizophrenic god, who basically says, "I love you and if you don't love me back I'll send you to hell."

This is one of the reasons why I believe the Mirror to be so important. That though maybe in Greek and the New Testament, we really believe the Spirit is showing us things that are Spiritually sound, though at times with Thayer's and other Lexicons, one may run into a conflict with the "linguistic translation in logic" (not translation) do to Greek and Hebraic logic being so totally different.

Our point being, we no longer need to say, "I would like to believe," and face criticism of the traditional points of view. We can Now reference the Hebraic logic of the writers in the Greek linguistic usage of the words to validate our point. Regardless of what commentators say the root is, both can now be true koinonia and kuon; they actually mean the same thing in the Hebraic mind. Our point is accurate and we can set a new standard by our usage of the verses." (The Mirror, with editing)

Now is the time, now is the moment, for all true believers to receive of the LORD.

Back on August 14th of 2007, in the evening hours the LORD asked me* from Matthew 11:29, 'Are you ready to take My Yoke upon and learn of Me?' Now I have a new understanding just what that means not only for me but any one who finds this blog: "one having a LIKE HEART....A HEART YOKED ABOVE IN THE HOUSE OF GOD." This ends our searching for now. WHM.

"The Secrets of GOD," as revealed by John in the Revealtion of Christ,some thoughts on a few subjects part 2a of 3, hidden insights, as seen with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

We are looking at the thoughts on the "Power" of the Blood, that was spilled on humanity's behalf, and the shear fact that it was both innocent and righteous. And how this effects us of the Ekklesia today some 2000 plus years away from its being spilled. Picking the thoughts up at 1Peter 1.


Thoughts on the "Power" of the Blood:

1Peter 1:18-21, 2Corinthians 5:18, Hebrews 6:16-17, "It is clear to see that we were ransomed from the futile, fallen mindset that we inherited from our fathers, not by the currency of our own labors, represented by the fluctuating values of gold and silver, and the economy of religious efforts; But we were redeemed with the priceless blood of Christ; He is the ultimate sacrifice; Spotless and without blemish. He completed the prophetic picture! (In Him GOD speaks the most radical scapegoat language of the Law of judgment, and brought its final closure to a dead and redundant system! In Psalm 40:6-7, it is clearly stated that GOD does not require sacrifice or offerings! Jesus is the Lamb of GOD! He collides victoriously with the futile sacrificial system whereby offerings are constantly made to the pseudo, moody, monster gods of our own imaginations! This is the scandal of the cross! GOD does not demand a sacrifice that would change the way He thinks about humanity; He provided the sacrifice of Himself as Christ in order to forever eradicate sin-consciousness from our minds and radically change the way we think about our Maker, one another and ourselves! [Sin-consciousness is in essence a works-based consciousness.] GOD did not clothe Adam with the skin of a slain animal because of a divine need to be appeased, but because of Their unconditional Agape for Adam; They spoke the language of Adam's own self judgment: Adam, not GOD looked at Adam differently, but to make Adam feel better about himself! Ultimately it was to prophetically prepare Adam for the unveiling of the mystery of humanity's redemption in the incarnation. Here Deity would clothe Themselves in humanity's skin, in a son; And the Lion of Judah, was borne, and would become the Lamb of GOD (as first seen by Enoch and written of by Jasher, meaning many), in order to free our minds to re-discover His redeemed image and likeness within our being! see 1Peter 1:2) He was always destined in GOD's prophetic thought; GOD knew even before the [1]fall of the world order that His son would be the Lamb, to be made manifest in these last days, because of us! (You are the reason Jesus died and was raised! The word, [1, G2598 is from G2596 kata, down and G906 ballō is a verb, to throw] katabalo, means "to fall away, to put in a lower place," instead of (G2310) themeliso, meaning "foundation" [see Eph 2:20]; thus, translated "the fall of the world," instead of "the foundation of the world.") He is the conclusive cause of our belief in GOD. Seeing then how perfectly we fit into the scheme of things, it is no wonder that our faith in GOD's act of raising Jesus from the dead became the glorious reference to our own new birth (being our own, born again from, from above by our joint resurrection and joint ascension)! The glory that GOD gave Jesus by raising Him from the dead, is the conclusion of everything that our faith longs for!" (This is the redemption of glory that the Prophets pointed to! And Hosea in 6:2 spoke of saying, "After two days He will revive us; On the third day He will raise us up!" (Now this passage has a duel roll as it applies to both Deity and humanity, in the use of the word "us" or is it "Us" meaning Deity, just as "Them" and "Their" mean Deity.) Isaiah 40:5, "And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together!")

2Corinthians 5:18, "The idea of humanity's co-inclusion in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is entirely GOD's doing! To now realize that GOD has indeed brought final closure to the Old and for us to see everything and everyone in this new light is to simply see what GOD has always known to be true about us in Christ; We are not debating human experience, opinion, or our own contribution; This is exactly what GOD believes. In Jesus Christ, GOD [1]exchanged equivalent value to redeem us to Himself. He went to the highest extreme in this action of reconciliation to persuade us of our original worth! This GOD has given us as the mandate of our ministry." (The word, [1, G2644 is from G2596 kata, down, and G236 allassō , from G243 allos, to make different] katallassō, translates as reconciliation; It is a mutual exchange of equal value. This transaction was not to buy us back from "the devil;" A thief never becomes an owner; It was GOD redeeming our minds from the lie that we believed of ourselves - reconciliation is the bold unveiling of the value of the hidden treasure in everyone of us! 2Cor. 4:7 and Mat. 13:44, "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in an agricultural field, which a man found and covered up; Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys the entire field." There is so much more to us than what meets the eye!)

Hebrews 6:16-17, "It is common practice in human affairs to evoke a higher authority under an oath in order to add weight to any agreement between parties, thereby [1]silencing any possibility of quibbling. (The word, [1, G4009] peras, means the end of all dispute; The point beyond which one cannot go.) In the same context we are confronted with GOD's eagerness to go to the last extreme in His dealings with us as heirs of His promise, and to cancel out all possible grounds for doubt or dispute. In order to persuade us of the unalterable character and finality of His resolve, He [1]confined Himself to an oath. The promise which already belonged to us by heritage is Now also confirmed under oath." (The word, [1, G3316 is from G3319 mesos] mesitēo, is used, interposed or mediated. Compare mesiteo, mediator, from (G3319) mesos, midst. In the incarnation, GOD had positioned Himself in the midst, of His creation. see Galatians 3:20, "With Abraham there was no middleman; It was just GOD! [The Mosaic law required mediators, the Levitical priesthood] because it was an arrangement whereby humanity had a part and GOD had a part. Humanity's part was to obey the commandments and GOD's part was to bless. GOD's covenant with Abraham was a "Grace Covenant" pointing to the man Jesus Christ, in whom GOD Himself would fulfill humanity's part and therefore needed no mediator apart from Himself.

The Word is the promise; The Incarnate, crucified and risen Christ is the proof. He desired to show more convincingly to the heirs (of the redeemed world of humanity) of the promise (Gen. 3:15) the unchangeable character of His purpose. --RSV

Humanity was not redeemed from the devil; A thief never ever becomes an owner; Neither did Jesus do what He did to change His Father's mind about us! It was our minds that require persuasion! GOD was not to be reconciled to His creation; GOD was in Christ when He reconciled the world to Himself! 2Cor. 5:18-20.) (The Mirror, with editing.)

With our next visit the LORD willing we shall begin our look at "Thoughts on the word Proskuneo - often translated, worship." Until then may the LORD show us all what worship is.
