Matthew 5; Verses 19-20; The Law



Now Christ the previous verses just said He DID NOT come to do away with the law. But to fulfill. That being the sinless sacrifice to our Father. That we may come to relationship with the Father through Christ. Serving the LORD, thus keeping God's law, and His will in the process.


Thank you for taking a look †

(Matthew 5:19-20) "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

(In other words, a nothing in the eyes of God for false teaching. False teachers who say you don't have to follow God's laws. False teachers who use grace as a license to sin at the end of their doctrine. In the eyes of God they get no respect now, and they won't be in Heaven in the end (next verse). To the contrary, God respects and is proud of those who teach His law, and His is law to be followed through serving Christ. The law written on stone/paper is there for correction as a Christian as we're following and serving Christ in heart and mind. Not serving the law in heart and mind).

20For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."

(What did the Pharisees do? They did not even follow commandment one. Therefore, followed their own traditions which follow. Beginning with money in idolatry they veer/deviate so far away from God's laws they begin to make a whole other World. Making right wrong, and wrong right. People end up bowing and worshiping what they've made up. This is how people get put into bondage in the masses. If you are not following commandment one you are breaking the whole law. Putting the world and the things of the world first over one's creator. Grace is there, but if grace is a license to sin then that is not the right Christ to follow. Obviously so, otherwise would say that Christ did sin. Making the cross null and void in their mind. So let's get on the right track here).

Matthew 7; Verses 13-14; Entering the Kingdom of Heaven


Note: They are blotted out after the Millennium (the second death). But this pic is depicting before the Millennium. Of course we know they are not literally burning forever right now, or after the Millennium. You have to understand Hebraism and figures of speech. They are blotted out forever. You also have to be able to reconcile two seemingly opposing Scriptures from English. (Revelation 20). (Luke 16 for the gulf right now currently. A place of temporary judgment until the Millennium. Believers are on the good side of the gulf, and unbelievers on the bad side of the gulf. 


Thank you for taking a look †

"Entering the Kingdom of Heaven"

(Matthew 7:13-14) "Enter ye in at the strait (narrow) gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Now Christ after 2-1/2 chapters basically in changing the heart and mind in living right, gives us the reality, and the reality check. Now Christ holding us to it. Kind of like are you going to chose entrance number one or entrance number two?

(Are you going to choose door number one? or door number two (door of death)? If everyone would say door number one, then how is it few find it? See making that step into that path calls for sacrifice/response--making steps. In other words, you have to do it (through faith) other than sit there and do nothing).

(Many of false preachers have the red carpet rolled out for this path as well. The easy path is chosen, one with least resistance--no effort. Failing to enter the service entrance).

(I don't want to lose what Christ is referring to here. But we have little relation to entering a gate of a walled city. The goal is to get into the walled city and have God's protection, from there having protection from the enemy).

Furthermore, what naturally comes is people do not like to be given ultimatums. Here we need to get over that and overcome it, be over-comers as Christ lead the way as He overcame for those who come to believe. Christ many time showed this. You want to stay then He wants you to stay. But if you don't want to be around Him, He don't want to be around you. Just that simple.

14Because strait is the gate, and narrow the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."

That path is narrow. Notice each individual to walk into this path to gain access inside the city. Christ just gave us the analogy in having the keys of knowledge and understanding. This is kind of like watching two people approach this entrance to the city, and looking to each other dumbfounded as to who is to go first. The confusion ends when the path is taken.

There are many plans out there, take these steps, take this step, do this, do that. The correct path here only takes one step, and the Lord guides you with the rest. Even guiding one at the first step. If that step is in sincerity. So, let's begin with the "one step plan." True faith. Let Christ guide the rest learning from His word(s). Verse by verse.


Christ leads the way:
(John 14:5-6) "Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
No fear exists on this path. It's an impossibility.


(Revelation 3:20-22) "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

21To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

22He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches."

Matthew 13; Verses 31-32; Mustard Seed Parable


Continuing on in the amazing parables in Matthew 13. Thank you for taking a look †

Very important here. As Christ stops here in the middle of teaching the in-depth parables He shows where it all begins. But faith in what do we need to begin? Not whether God exists or not. No, but you believe who Christ says He is what He came to do. Is He the Messiah? When thoroughly investigated through Scripture weighing all the evidence if one said no I would not be picking them for the grand jury. Can you give a fair trial? Would you have given Christ a fair trial? His people a fair trial?

(John 20:30-31) "And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:
31these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name."


(Matthew 13:31-32) "Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:


This is what it's like in heaven. Because this is the spiritual to physical relationship. This is what it takes.

Mustard seed is 1mm in diameter. Just a little bit of faith from the get-go but stick with it. If it stays a seed it will get crushed. Continuous steady growing.

This is an important part as Christ just went over the disastrous effects that kill faith in the parable of the sower. Here you don't even need "catch-up" (pun intended) to go with that mustard off the bat. Romans 12 as well. See, the Lord always makes the first move. The question is do we recognize it and respond? He did the work on the cross, and also draws us to Him through faith first. That's a lot of work we don't have to do from the get-go. So much work an impossibility. Unless you can get on that cross and pay for all the sins for humanity? And think they would deserve it before being a Christian at that?

Mustard seeds have unique healing properties unlike any other. Now amazing they prevent intestinal cancer (truly garbage in or garbage out). As it goes with faith. Just a little bit of faith the good "cells" reproduce growing. No time for that cancer we have before faith to multiply. Not even remission here, a complete healing. Like olive oil mustard seeds very high in omega-3 fatty acid. The good stuff, cleansing.

32Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof."

Everyone enjoys a bird "sanctuary."

When it grows up. This is the Christian growing. This is why I say you better know what you're doing. You don't want to affect anyone's faith to damage. But they have to be willing to grow. Matthew 18 as well. Whoever offends a babe (new Christian believer with less faith). Your in for a world a hurt. Well, yes, eternity is on the line here.

We also have that maturing process as a Christian we see here and many places. When the Lord uses nature as an example. Like the green grass to the green trees, and anything green in between. All different stages in maturation. The birds have found home here. This is a picture of peace, harmony, the birds coming to sing. The overall point here is it's contagious. A contagious you want to be around. Positive can-do people as well. We have the body of Christ growing here. An amazing thing.

Notice how the tree though in the wilderness (the world) stands alone but branches out. Standing there firm. Nothing messing with it.



(Matthew 18:3-6) "And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.


(Bring them in, welcome them. And we have also went over the parables recently in Luke 15. Complete joy to go around. Accept them in. Accept their flaws, but we cannot accept and excuse sin. Repent, learn, move on, keep growing. Being a Christian is trial and error as well. Don't be too hard on yourself, but don't excuse it is the fine line balance).


6But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea."

(That is not a pretty picture. "Well, Jp isn't Christ being kind of harsh"? Well, He was crucified on the cross in cruel and harsh asphyxiation for you).

The Mustard seed and Mustard tree a much prettier picture.

Genesis 1; Verses 1-2; The First Heaven and Earth Age



6,000 year old Earth? They call this the gap theory in many circles. The only theory, which is a lie is a 6k yr old Earth. Tradition, traditions, and science so called that is false--that make God's Word null and void. Once again, this is up and down the Bible. We call can look around and see the earth is not 6,000 years old. The shame is we should be using the Lord's creation to the strength and confirmation of His Word. As He is the creator and author of science. God's Word teaches 3 Heaven and Earth ages. (Proverbs 8 also huge on this). We are currently in the 2nd age (aion from the Greek), the flesh age. Please refer to the archive study Genesis 1:3-5 (first day in the flesh) to further put this together.

Thank you for taking a look †


(Genesis 1:1-2) "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

This time period is the first Earth Age. satan's rebellion against THE LORD. satan certainly rebelled before Genesis 1:2 (way before the Garden of Eden). Of course, at satan's rebellion 1/3 of the angels followed him to come to be known as the fallen angels.

Each individual was created, their soul and spirit in the first earth age as there was no flesh. God destroyed the Earth by flood (Jeremiah 4 and II Peter 3:5-6). Their soul (themselves) and spirit are placed in the womb by the Lord at conception. Now also watch out for false teachers who teach reincarnation. We have never been in the flesh before for that to happen.

All this will be below. Once we get the following established:

2And the earth was without form (laid waste, from the Hebrew Tohu va-bohu), and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters."

(The mistranslation of the word was. The word is always used past tense here).

In this verse, And the earth was (became, came to pass), without form (Hebrew, tohu va bohu, not created tohuw, not “was” tohuw, but became tohuw), and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. The phrase ‘without form’ in the Hebrew is ‘tohuw’, meaning to ‘lie waste, a desolation, vain’. And the word ‘void’ is ‘bohuw’ in the Hebrew, meaning 'an indistinguishable ruin.' 

So we put it together properly rendered, "the Earth became waste."

(Jeremiah 4:23) "I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light."
(The same time period as Genesis 1:1. The earth became waste here! Let's see what else?

(Jeremiah 4:24-27) "I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
The earth and it's topography and geography was already here!

25I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.

26I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.
(There were cities? inhabited? Mountains (wonder why all the fossils found)? hills? everything fled His presence as He destroyed the Earth here. He did not kill His creation).

(Isaiah 45:18) "For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else."


God did not create the Earth to be uninhabited. What purpose would that be? In other words, He does created anything to just sit there not for usage.
Back to Jeremiah 4:27,

27For thus hath the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end."


Now let's move down to when God made the races (mankind). The purpose here is to establish the first Earth Age.

(Genesis 1:28) "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
The word replenish? to fill again. Because we were here before (the First Earth Age). Just like Jeremiah 4:22-28 states.

(Ephesians 1:4) "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love."

(The word foundation from the Greek is katabole means overthrow. This is the first Earth age of course where 1/3 of the Angels followed satan. Becoming fallen angels because of that:

(Revelation 12:4) "And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born."

satan tried to overthrow God (Isaiah 14, satan said he will ascend above the clouds, meaning all of the Lord's creation).

How true is this? there will be scoffers (denying the obvious, dinosaurs, fossil record, the pangea, etc). At this holding onto their traditions of a 6,000 year old Earth. Let's stop the nonsense.

This is not Noah's flood. This is the first Earth Age:

(II Peter 3:5-6) "For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:


Let's look at this. They are WILLINGLY ignorant. As stated in the beginning here we ALL know the earth is not 6,000 years old.

6Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished."

(Totally destroyed--laid waste. The earth became waste and void. The same time period in Jeremiah 4 where the Lord said He would not make a full end).

(II Peter 3:3-4) "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
(They certainly scoff at this. They call it a theory. But as we see they are backwards. It takes one verse in God's Word for them to accomplish this. Other false doctrines come in such as the rapture/pre trib rapture because of the same methods and not being able to teach God's Word, but their own word(s).

4And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation."
(Why would they say this? the ignorance of not knowing God's plan. Not knowing  His plan in chronological order. Thus they cannot even know their enemy, they don't even know what satan did to cause all this mess. The failure to study and follow one verse and make up their stuff. They cannot get any connection. Filling the gaps in God's Word. As there is no gaps, but there are when all you do is teach one verse here, one verse there then your own words for an hour).

(II Peter 3:9) "
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
(All in all the knowing the prior 2 ages and the one to come the 3rd, that being the eternity. Shows the exhaustive long-suffering of the Lord over His creation. Important to know for any "theological" discussion concerning the "character" of God. How He deals with His creation all throughout HIStory).

Let's get a quick reference and view of Ezekiel of satan's rebellion and why,

(Ezekiel 28:14-15) "Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

15Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee."


satan wanted to rule and be God over all of God's creation. He was to be a priest. A priest teaches God's Word to God's people. satan failed.

(Isaiah 14:13-14) "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:

14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High."
The last point here. And we will continue these point in posts to come.
Check this out:
This is the third day,

(Genesis 1:9) "And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so."
The waters from the flood in II Peter and Jeremiah 4! As stated the topography was here. And of course when He was done filling the earth again he told mankind to replenish the earth as stated above.
Thanks for enjoying this study with us. You won't want to miss the rest of Genesis 1.There is absolutely no way putting this together verse by verse one can longer believe the earth is 6,000 years old. We need to use His science correctly. As we see the connection putting together God's plan from start to finish begins here. You cannot understand the end (Revelation), until you understand the beginning (Genesis).

Genesis 1; Verses 3-5; The First Day in the Flesh Age; Free Will



Continuing on in Genesis (beginnings).  Thank you for checking out the post. †

We just closed out the first Earth Age (between Genesis 1:1-2).

Now we cover the second Earth Age (aion)--the flesh age, beginning with Genesis 1:3,

(Genesis 1:3-5) "And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

(Now the Sun, moon, and stars are not created until the 4th day. This is before the firmament. The end will be just like the beginning before the firmament as well. As Revelation 21:1 states. The beginning of the Eternity Age Heaven comes to Earth, and we have a rejuvenated Earth. There will be no need for the sun, moon, and stars. No astronomy. NASA won't be there either. The earth laid waste in darkness from the katabole as we exhaustively went through in Genesis 1:1-2. Please refer back if needs be).

4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.


(Everything God created He saw it good. This is where God created free choice/will. As light is good, and evil is darkness. Free will is the correct doctrine. Most have free will. This is consistent throughout all the Bible. No one can say God made me do it. No one can say satan made me do it. We are responsible for our own sin. Not if you repented, it's blotted out. The Lord does not even want to hear about it again. There is no greater humbling than saying no to one's self and bowing to YHVH, greater then them).

Remember, in Genesis 1 we also referenced Isaiah 45 as the Lord is going through time here. All three Heaven and Earth Ages in Isaiah 45 as well.

(Isaiah 45:7) "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."


(The LORD created the option to do good or evil).

5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day."


(This is the first day in the flesh Age).

And those that believe upon Him and do right (righteousness) are children of light, and those that don't are children of darkness:

(I Thessalonians 1:5) "Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness."


As God will be our light in the eternity. Spiritually and physically, as the spiritual is the physical in the eternity. Because we're in spiritual breath of life bodies, that never age, get sick, and feel sadness. The spiritual is and will be a physical place. Just another realm.

There will be no Sun, moon, and stars in the eternity. It will go back to the way it was just before the firmament (surface) from the 4th day, when astronomy was created:

(Revelation 21:23-24) "And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

24And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it."

Continuing on in Isaiah 45:8. Remember verse 7 the creation of to do good or evil.

8Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.

(Amazing? He knew what man would right from the get-go. From verse 7. Using that free will to do evil. Now verse 8 that salvation in access to the tree of life. The access that was denied for our own good in Genesis 3:22-24).

9Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
Right off the bat the Lord hits the human condition before salvation. Blaming Him. What we make with our hands does it talk back? Blame us? Why did you make me? Why did you make me to be like this? No, nonsense. This is a place of condemnation. So we should we view it accordingly.

10Woe unto him that saith unto his father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?
(Here you have it).

11Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.


(Pleading with people. Talk to Him. Cry out to Him. This is an absolute plea in long-suffering).

12I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
Putting man in His in place. Who are you to make what I created and not think of me?

13I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts."


Salvation. It's free. Remember they had to buy the animals? Remember He desires mercy first over sacrifice. Meaning, we cannot sacrifice until we're able to relate through mercy and the forgiveness of sins. You cannot buy salvation. That collection plate is not deep enough!

On to the New Testament and the great book of James:

God cannot cause you to do evil. Which doing so puts the responsibility of ours sins on Him. Just like one cannot say, "satan made me do it."

So saying there is no free choice/will is false teaching and a very cruel teaching as well :

(James 1:13-17) "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

Tempted here, actually means from the Greek to test one maliciously, out of spite with mischievous motives, to test whether it can be or done or not. In other words, when God does test someone it's not for their harm, but for their own good. So it is with any test, we study for it, and learning increases. Then we study from it. Nothing bad can from from that. Testing is to sharpen us up. To see if we're fit).

This is so important to understand it's us here. Because a lot of people are afraid to even approach God because of this. Thinking God has cursed them living in condemnation. Why is God doing this to me? No we did it and do it to ourselves.

14But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust (desires), and enticed.

(We're drawn away by our desires/lusts first just as Eve then Adam in the garden of Eden, through impure motives. Now if God is maliciously testing us with our weaknesses. It's accusing God of the evil in us. Obviously, more nonsense if that were so).

(This takes away free will, and puts the blame on God, and the responsibility of our sins on Him. Thus the importance of free will).

The opposite would be God programming us to love Him, without a choice. Taking away our choice to good or evil.

15Then when lust (desires) hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

(Death of course is satan. The correct doctrine is key in taking responsibility for our own sins and guilt then to be repented of. Otherwise, you don't even know what to repent from).

16Do not err, my beloved brethren.
(Make no mistake about any of this).

17Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness (change), neither shadow of turning."
James stressing the point nothing has changed since the beginning. Using that light references here as Christians we children of light.

(There is no evil intent behind what the Lord does. If we're asking God in sincerity you're recognizing He's your Father, and your His child. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever).

Hope you enjoyed this study. In the remaining creations days we will take a look at how they amazingly parallel the trumpets also.

Matthew 13; Verses 24-30; (part one) Parable of the Wheat and Tares


One of the most important parables in the Bible. So much so the Disciples asked to explain to complete depth right after. Which we'll do that in coming posts. I'm kinda going into it now. But in the next posts Christ tells us exactly where it all began. So here is Christ giving an overview. As I say you get a two-fold approach. God gives the forest for the trees, then trees for the forest if you will. You cannot be mistaken. Questions can be good. But absolutely do not come to me arguing about this or you will be rebuked. I rebuke doctrine from satan that allows him and his children to flourish. What needs to be done. Wake up. Their favorite fairy tale is you the Christian believing some snake that was a tree also fed to Eve then Adam an apple/fruit salad or whatever other literal fruit to conjure up. Hope you see this is how they get by! This goes undetected they are called God's chosen. Oh, how much satan loves to see Christians fighting Christians on account of his own who hate Christ. The plot begins in the garden of Eden. This is how good satan is. But not that good. We have your number (y)

I'm not trying to be too hard on anyone. But this is a must know and understand. Period!

What else? Christ approves of Smyrna and Philadelphia who know this, understand this, teach this, go by this. Have you read it? Revelation 2:8-11; 3:7-13. Compare them to other 5 churches. Verses 2:9 and 3:9 specific.

Smryna:

(Revelation 2:9) "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy (pure evil against God) of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan."

Philadelphia:

(Revelation 3:9) "Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. "

(They are living a lie)!

Now that is set.

Thank you for taking a look †

(Matthew 13:24-30) "Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

(This is where the depth of learning God's Word begins. Parable = side by comparison to separate truth from lie, fact from fiction, life from death).

(An overview here. All creation ultimately comes from the LORD. The good seed are the children of Israel of course. The field = the world).

25But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

Not paying attention. Lazy (this is in the Song of Moses too). Maybe they should of kept their enemies closer? As in knowing what is going on around them. His enemy = satan beginning in the garden of Eden. To I Chronicles 2:55 where satan's seed infiltrated the priest line, the temple progressively. Claiming to be of Judah, "Jew", and they are not. But of the synagogue of satan. Who were supposed to be doing these duties? Levities. From the tribe of Levi. Let's see the return of the parable of the fig tree (Jeremiah 24) in side-by-side with Ezra 8. Now Ezra the return from Babylon here. The Babylonian captivity.

And of course, since the rise of political zionism you have seen the decline in Christianity, morals, society as a whole. This is what they do. They want the human race as a whole gone. They want whites fighting black people! They want to run the world. RESEARCH IT! I cannot help you there. Study who runs all institutions and philosophies. The claiming jew Christ-hating users. They are good but not that good. Suppose one is going around about the Illuminati? lol, this is it! The Bible tells you, they tell you. The plot that began in the garden. Should I post 50 talmud "verses" again? Or all their new world order quotes. ALL AT YOUR EXPENSE. While you're sleeping buying their stuff and being used like dogs they think you are. Why the false preachers says support them! And oh yes you're a catholic what do they say about Mary? They say she was a whore! This is how they treat and respect everything Holy!

(Ezra 8:15) "And I gathered them together to the river that runneth to Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi."

What do you think? Were they awake or fall asleep at the wheel?

Let's look at I Chronicles 2:55. Way back before this. What is I Chronicles here? Listing the genealogy's. The sons (children of Israel).

"And the families of the scribes which dwelt at Jabez; the Tirathites, the Shimeathites, and Suchathites. These are the Kenites that came of Hemath, the father of the house of Rechab."

What's a scribe do? Legal, keep the books. Move in, and change the laws. How else do you think the generation of vipers made up laws and crucified Christ on a law they made up? Deuteronomy 19. Even in their sorry minds Christ was not guilty! Bearing false witness!

What's a kenite? sons of cain. Here it is. Mixing in being called what would later become jew because they are jew by location, where they live. Their geographical location. But they claim to be God's chosen. Got it? Written in Genesis 3:14-15 satan's off spring, the generation of vipers would crucify Christ. THIS IS NOT HARD!

26But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

Sprung up = Just starting to grow and bud. As we see from I Chronicles 2:55. Here come the kenites snaking their way in. Yes, it did not take long when Israel first became a nation we see. Same as America today.

(Genesis 3:14-15) "And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

15And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."

(Talking to the serpent = satan. satan was himself in the roles he plays! Not some literal talking serpent who fed Eve then Adam a literal fruit salad from what a talking tree too? It is time mature past fairy tales. satan's seed would crucify CHRIST)!

satan's seed cain, cain kenites once again = sons of cain. Also why Christ would later say to these money-changing ill-gotten gains full of usury all in God's name claiming God's chosen.

(Matthew 23:34-35) "Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:

35That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar."

(Who murdered Abel? cain). In the coming posts we will investigate cain more and see what God said to cain concerning them to this day. Such as the ability to farm (you will never see them farm, but you will see them reap all the benefits from farming. Because they are users. Tell you they hate Christ, their talmud hates Christians. Wake up. They slew between the temple and altar? Woe, woe, woe. No Levite would do that).

Has the false Gospel preached in America made you bitter towards God's truth here?

27So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

(We're seeing it here. Ask God. Are you going to? Claim to be servant of CHRIST. But how is it those who hate Christ are called God's chosen? Have we not went up and down the song of Moses showing this? How did this happen? How did they get in are the questions).

Now, tares choke out the wheat. Like asphyxiation just like they did to Christ on the cross.

28He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

(satan did it. The servants of Christ let's go get them now they say. Let's do the separating now).

29But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

(No, you may  not be able to tell them apart. And beside that everyone gets to complete life. We don't know if they will turn to Christ when it's all said and done. It could be the last breath of their life for all we know).

30Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn."

(That harvest again. Remember we have two harvests. satan's harvest in the winter, out of season, out of order as he attempts to change times and laws. The order of things).

This goes with saying whoever slews cain will pay 7-fold. We don't go murder them. We mark them. Know who they are. Here is that barn. Farmers have a barn. This is why the Lord created Adam, to farm. He needed a man to till the soil. Then through the line the true children of Israel would come to Christ.

The line of cain? yields no crops. To this day they cannot farm. But they sit at the table counting the money in usury. You best believe we're now paying for the maniac Hitler expediently in sympathy towards them. All while they hate Christ, hate our Father. Please look at Genesis 4. We'll touch on other angles in the next posts for the sake of length here.

Okay, that sets the groundwork. The next posts Christ more in depth and we will exhaustively look at it. From the Hebrew in Genesis to the Greek here in Matthew 13. You will not want to miss it.

Matthew 6; Verses 28-34; No Worries and Worry Warts



Thank you for taking a look †


(Matthew 6:28-33) "And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:

Everyone loves a beautiful flower, effortless in beauty.

A comparison whom and what God cares for more Christ begins with. Christ is still going over His creation here (Animals previously, as He created all for man--Genesis 1). The flowers don't grow tired/exhausted from their work, they certainly don't weave together. Spinning is the first step in weaving together. Christ is still referring to that weaving together of both eyes, being in perfect harmony with the eyes of God, of course through the Holy Spirit. Christ is referring to the rest in Him, and we begin to grow, that yoke (hooked at the neck, with the weight of the World on one's shoulders) of bondage to the World first, and not the Lord.

And of course Christ gave woe to the pharisees. all they did was strain at gnats swallowing the camel. Not seeing the big picture, sweating the small stuff.




29And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

(See below for comparisons).

30Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

(Christ using the analogy of that flower. Everyone loves a beautiful flower. In other words, the flower grows continuously effortlessly, but yet it fades away. Therefore, why worship that which is in vain? Believers? Won't be cast into that oven when Christ comes back, that is the elements of the Earth burned up, and the spiritual purging coming. (II Peter 3:10). Christ putting that question to us. You think you have faith? But look at what your doing. Faith in the temporary, not the eternal/everlasting. Christ was even teaching this to Peter to walk to Him on the water in complete dependency. A picture for us when life seems it's like it's sinking around us. It was at 4th watch. Remember Christ said about His coming at the second or third watch. Maybe even the 4th. The point there is if you think He is going to be late do not. The sea of course in the end-times for the people, and those who come against God's people. the wind was tossing the waves of the sea all around them. Just as satan comes with that might wind in/at the 6th seal. What did Christ warn Peter of? Having little faith. Please check the story in Matthew 14:22-33 and Revelation 6:12-13. Which is why Christ ask when He comes back will He find faith?

Now the pic is also for when satan comes at the 6th seal, 6th trumpet, and 6th vial. The 6th vial as he is is the King of Babylon. The three unclean spirits come out of the frog for the evil godhead/trinity. Remember that was one plague the children of Israel has to trust the Lord it would be done. The evil godhead/trinity = dragon satan himself. The beast = satan heading the one world system/new world order. The false prophet = satan claiming to be Christ/God.

Remember, we have little control over the outside factors in life. The things we cannot control. Such as the weather (the spiritual condition) here in the end-times. It is their choice. Christ also showing us we cannot control the weather in that respect, but we can control our decision to trust and faith in Him.


Back to Matthew 6:31,


31Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

The three necessities in life to function. Christ is using the excess of Solomon's (being blessed of God) reign in comparison with the essentials in life. Therefore, taking a deep look at what is most important.

32(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
(It's a given He knows. He is asking for complete dependency here not relying ourselves. Though we have to put it into action. Meaning, through faith you don't just sit around and do nothing. That goes for helping people too. As went over in James as well. Someone needs assisstance and you can help all is said I will pray? May the Lord bless you? Seriously? Then tomorrow say the Lord works through people? Let's make sure our actions match our mouth. Faith without works is dead).

(Gentiles here being pagan nations in context. So, Christ teaching here what later the disciples the apostles job was and is to do).

Which has become the way of the World: eat, drink, and be merry. But yet, no one is merry?

33But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.


(So all in all, the emphasis is righteousness through Christ first. The condition acceptable to the Father, and then doing right. With the rest being in Christ, effortless work to gain and be satisfied as Solomon was. But of course Solomon slipped. Which no doubt Christ is giving us that example as well. Stick with it. We're not in this for gain as all will fade away. And Solomon later wrote Ecclesiastes. Concluding it was all a waste of time without putting God first, in heart, conscience, and in mind. That's one rough way to go never seeing God in and out of things in this world. It begins within you to see God on the outside. Without belief/repentance you can forget it. "The Kingdom of Heaven begins within you:", for this very reason).

34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

Conclusion. Live in the now through the eyes of the Lord, putting in order of importance by prioritizing. Not in a hurry to get this, or that. Running for something that will be gone--the chase. When chasing the carrot on the stick we should look at if the ends justifies the means? Cause and effect, our reasoning. Worrying and being a worry-wart just leaves you stuck. It will really is not based in reality as well as the things of this world will be burnt up giving us a "new" (rejuvenated) Heaven and earth.

Lastly, Christ did not say do not plan for tomorrow. He said do not worry. If your doing right today, trust in the Lord He has your back because He is walking on your side. We don't even know the details of tomorrow, let alone the adjustments of plans today. Therefore we should have a Godly goal. The day to day adjustments having Him give that protection. Having a goal overall will keep you inside the proper framework adjusting through the adversity that comes day to day. Just as Solomon had many Godly goals right from the get-go. Please check I Kings chapter 3 for that.

A couple references (there are many for this post):

(I Timothy 6:6-10) "But godliness with contentment is great gain.

7For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

8And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

9But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

10For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."


(James 4:13-17) "Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:

14Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

15For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

16But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.

17Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin."
Amen †


Revelation 16; Verses 1-2; The First Vial



Thank you for taking a look †

Vial(s) = God's judgment. These are all spiritual that will lead to physical condition of course. Vial 7 will be physical at Christ coming.
Seal(s) = Knowledge and understanding of what is to come (truth) being protected from satan, and then God's wrath.
Trumpet(s) = Command to action.

(Revelation 16:1-2) "And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

To the first vial here, judgment. We learned the 6th vial is first. Then the first vial in chronological order from there. As the first vial is for taking the mark of the beast. That is believing then worshiping satan claiming to be Jesus. In/at the 6th seal, 6th trumpet, 6th vial = 666. The real Christ comes in/at the 7th seal, 7th trumpet, 7th vial = 777. To clarify, the vials go in succession. 6, 1, 2 ,3, 4, 5, and 7.

(The judgment comes from Heaven from the testimony. Which is Christ. "What's His testimony specifically here"? These be the days of the vengeance, that all written be fulfilled. For a deeper study all the vials will be related to the plagues of Egypt. Beginning, with the serpents being swallowed up by the rod/staff of God. Exodus chapters 7-11 for that).

(Remember the eagle (symbolic for The Lord) teaching her young to fly in Revelation 12? When satan comes? The picture here is we're not apart of this judgment on the earth. Not as being raptured/pre trib raptured. But as protected).

Then the Earth helping mother Israel, covering all of Israel and the ethnos this time? Likewise, as we cannot deal with the one world's system filthy dirty and corrupt money. We must trust God in this wilderness, with street smarts wiser than the serpent knowing and understanding how to operate in this world. Because, we can trade/barter. Essentials for non-essentials. Christians helping Christians).

(The children of Israel had to leave everything they ever knew. Their comfort zone. Using the resources from the Earth).

2And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome (bad natured) and grievous (grief, misery, hardship) sore (like an ulcer) upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image."

(They believed satan is Christ/God. Now this is one sad condition here: remember, their saying peace and safety (loving the physical things of the world over the true God) to a physical condition. But their spiritual, real mental state? Bad natured one. Their love has waxed cold. But of course their mouths will be playing church saying satan is Christ/God. Salvation is good will towards people according to The Lord, the Gospel. To save that which is lost, mot make excuses to live in your own sin).

(They are being tormented by evil spirits. satan has completely lured them in believing every word satan says).

(The word grievous is the same condition as to be afflicted by an evil spirit. They worship satan as Christ/God they certainly have one, at the least. We're talking possessed. Not influenced. But possessed. So knowing how to handle these situations will be huge. Which is why we go over spiritual warfare, the Gospel Armor and how it's done very frequently).

(They have an ulcer like pain burning, the pit of stomach. Perfect "complete" love casts out all fear. Believing then worshiping satan will cause nothing but fear. With no shield of faith, and certainly no truth protecting that loin area from fear. Girding up the loins--standing tall and upright to go to war. A war we've already one, we suit up. The battle belongs to the Lord, because He is in control).

(The image to the beast is of course, a likeness. Their hands/works will erect some kind of statue in honor of their fake savior satan claiming he's Christ/God. In man's idolatry what always comes next is to build and worship his hands from it i.e. works. Just like the Tower of Babel, as we have the repeat here beginning. spiritually first. The point is what you worship the works will follow, and follow from the hands. Which is why hands are used symbolically for works in the Bible. The pride in them. As we see man is proud of what man does with the attempted removal of the Lord now. They want nothing to do with our Father through Christ so satan they will get).

Amen †

Revelation 9; Verses 15-21; The 6th Trumpet (cont)


Thank you for taking a look †

(Revelation 9:15-19) 15And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.

(Specific. This is God's plan, and His plan that He allows. No one can blame God, they have a choice to make).

16And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.

That is 200 million right from the get-go worship satan claiming to be Christ/God. Here is the thing: We're going to find out these are false teachers/preachers Christ warned over and over about, and here He is again warning. They are on horses (power/horsepower) symbolic for going to battle, and rushing into battle going into war--to slay the rest. Christ said make fishers of men, not make them a part of Babylon--as the sea/waters are the people.

17And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

(Remember the previous trumpet, the kenites had chariots. Without chariots the horse runs even faster. The trumpet has blown and the Calvary is a coming. Not Calvary as in the crucifixion of Christ. They are going to war but they do not have the Gospel Armour on nor the breastplate. The lion of course is symbolic of devouring their prey working together as the "pride" works together as a team. But lions fight over the meat after the kill. They say peace when there is no peace)!

(The breastplate: this of course should be the breastplate of righteousness. Breastplates of fire, and Jacinth. As the priests wore breast plates in the OT. The priests wore the 12 stones on the breast plate representing the 12 tribes of Israel. But this only 1/12 of that. And the Gospel armor calls for the breast plate of righteousness, so these have the appearance of being righteous. But there is no righteousness in them).

(Fire and smoke--like the dragon (satan) they are trying to convert and get people to worship satan turning them to ashes, issuing brimstone = spiritual death).

18By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

(The last 1/3 here. As trumpet 4 and 5 did not do the spiritual killing. But set the conditions for after the 6th trumpet. Trumpets 2 and 3 already have done that).

(The power comes from their mouths of course with satan claiming to be Christ/God. Lies, lies and more lies. Also amazing how the number is three there. As we have the evil godhead here. satan = dragon. Beast = one world system. The false prophet = satan claiming to be Christ/God).

19For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt."

(Like the kenites. As they have the same message as the kenites as the power comes from their mouths. Remember the two Churches Christ approves of? They knew who those are claim to be Jews and are not? Tails like serpents because they have the offspring of the serpent doctrine? Is it hidden from your eyes? See the tail is hidden, but they are saying Christ. Saying Christ/God as they are trying to get people to worship satan as Christ/God).

20And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

(In concordance with the vials up thtrough vial number five. After each vial/plague they do not repent. They have the Mark of the beast here, or they are all just about to take it. Meaning being convinced satan is Christ/God in their minds).

21Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts."

(Spiritual murder. Sorceries = Drug pushers/trade--to get a spiritual high).
References:


Notice verse 21 for the tribes of Israel. This why the breastplates are only 1/12. Those who claim to be jews and are not. Are not of the tribes of Israel or the tribe of Judah. Where the word Jew comes from. Being from the tribe of Judah. The kenites are known as "Jew" because of geographical location. They, the talmud worshipers hate Christ and Christians. The Bible tells you first, then they tell you to even confirm it. You can best believe there is no righteousness on here.



Exodus 28:19 to be exact here,


(Ephesians 6:14) "Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness."


(Exodus 28:15-21) "And thou shalt make the breastplate of judgment with cunning work; after the work of the ephod thou shalt make it; of gold, of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine twined linen, shalt thou make it.

16Foursquare it shall be being doubled; a span shall be the length thereof, and a span shall be the breadth thereof.

17And thou shalt set in it settings of stones, even four rows of stones: the first row shall be a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this shall be the first row.

18And the second row shall be an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.

19And the third row a ligure (JACINTH), an agate, and an amethyst.

20And the fourth row a beryl, and an onyx, and a jasper: they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.


21And the stones shall be with the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet; every one with his name shall they be according to the twelve tribes.

Matthew 12; Verses 43-45; Dealing with Evil Spirits



Thank you for taking a look †

How much more can I stress this is an emergency situation. The battle for your soul. I want to see no one taken by satan and his. But it's not my choice. Fill yourself with the Word, get to stomping. No surrender. We also get this illustration here. Mankind has the sense to protect themselves to keep the fight going on in life. How much more we need to spiritually, and not lay on the ground. You lay on the ground with serpents and scorpions you cannot very well put the stomping on them. But get bitten and stung. So let's put them nice shoes you have on to good use (in mind). Instead of kicking people why they are down, satan and his you want to stomp on them when they are down.

(Matthew 12:43-45) "When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.

(Matthew kinda has it broken up a little here. But back to evil spirits here. This is very important here as we learn their goals).

Unclean = Dirty filthy, no morals. Like the dirtballs from the dust they are. Put the stomping on them serpents and scorpions. That is one analogy Christ gives us. Every analogy we get such as the Gospel Armour as well is to exhibit our power over them in the name of Yeshua THE Mashiach.

Yeshua = YHVH's savior.

Mashiah = Christos the anointed one).

Dry = without water of course. But here is the slicing difference: As Christ is the Christians living water. So the evil spirits need to feed too inhabiting a body. Something to sustain them. To give them that rest. I also encourage people to be careful of false teachers here. In that some say evil spirits come from God and that's it. Yes, they do in that He allows it. That should give the Christian rest themselves knowing the LORD is in control. You will not win any battle against them otherwise. Of course beginning with faith (the shield) (we don't go looking for it. being on guard is peace). Defend then attack.

44Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.

That evil spirit is going to attempt again and this time be overwhelming. The goal after this is to be stronger in mind so we can have that rest/peace. We are supposed to fill our house "ourselves" with God's Word understand what the Gospel Armour means. There is not even any spoils to take here. This type of person took it for granted. No, the whole point is to come out stronger with more confidence. Just as any soldier would from battle. A very high morale. But we need to remember that power comes from Heaven because Christ and Him sitting at the right hand of the Father. As our intercessor.

Let's look at Luke 11 real quick,

(Luke 11:21-22) "When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:

(Peace of mind. You don't see a security guard sit there and worry. No, they have full confidence. Kind of like you're driving an armored truck now, if you will. Your arrow (satan's) proof thanks be to Christ and the cross. Note: I will say no you don't need to plead the blood necessarily in a spiritual battle. satan knows that. He is already dead. THE POWER IS IN THE NAME BEGINNING AT FAITH KNOWING THE LORD IS IN CONTROL IN YOUR OBEDIENCE. Of course, at satan and his disobedience).

22But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils."


(So let's stand on the immovable rock in that light with positivity being can do. No self-defeat).

Back to Matthew 11:45,

45Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation."

(Here you have it. Overwhelming. As we know the evil spirits have a hierarchy, a chain of command directed by satan. Here we see easy pickens for them. House is empty and quite frankly they want to party. Just overwhelming this person with fear and condemnation and self-defeat. Yes, 7 times more of anything is going to be one bad monkey on your back. 7 is also representative for spiritual completeness/perfection. Here in the negative as complete. The point Christ is trying to illustrate. Like seeing the flood waters (statement to show overwhelming) coming but cannot make a move to protect one's self).


(As we have posted recently He allows it for Christians being stuck not forgiving other Christians. Why? They need it. They seem to forget the cross and become entitled. The cross is not working. So they better know that reality. What I'm saying some are dealing with this and do not know why. This is why).

See Christ' ransom and payment for sins is not getting the job done and pride has came in. So they are going to pay themselves. In an exhaustive attempt from the Lord for them to get their act together. Very important here. Why? We never leave that foundation we were saved in the first place. Begged and begged the LORD for forgiveness but won't give it to another who is sorry. But you continue to hold them to it? Are ya kidding? Yes, you are in for a world of hurt. Another emergency situation. I'd be asking who do I think I am? Am I above the Lord Christ?

(Matthew 18:32-35) "Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

33Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

34And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

35So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses."

Ephesians 6; Verse 17; Gospel Armor; Helmet/Sword



Thank you for taking a look. †

If you go into battle/war and the enemy sees you without armor/protective equipment on (like body armor), you will be laughed at. You want to be taken seriously by satan when standing against him? Get suited up. That means knowing why you're putting it on in the first place. Quote the scriptures in Yeshua the Mashiach name while anointing one's self.

With that in mind, let's get to two specific pieces of equipment here: Faith and Salvation is where it begins. Faith defends and salvation rooted in grace allows our mind to be protected. With those two pieces of armor, we are enabled through the Lord to be a strongman over satan, his fallen angels (who are to come Revelation 12:7-9, as in the days of Noah), and the evil spirits.

(Ephesians 6:17) “And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.”

The Gospel Armor is always rooted in the OT just as ALL scripture is.

Let's take a look:

(Psalm 35:2-3) “Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help.

(We are suiting up here. It is by no mistake that Psalm 37 is two chapters away, which is what I call the evil spirit “killer” chapter. We kill them by putting the sword to them, and Psalm 37 exposes the condition of the wicked. Usually side-by-side verses: one for the righteous, and one for the wicked. That is what a sword does--slices and separates truth while cutting lies/deception to pieces (asunder).

(We're standing up as well. Firmly planted = immovable against satan. We take his ground while putting the sword to him offensively, going for the kill. I see a lot of misplaced anger daily. Let's put it in the right place--approved by the Lord as righteous indignation. Note that wearing the breastplate of righteousness (and doing right) keeps us in a condition that is acceptable to the Lord. If one thinks they can enter a spiritual battle/crisis physically, he might as well go swing blindly at the air. Not to mention satan is the prince of the power of the air/airwaves spiritually (in the spiritual realm) until Christ takes it from him at the 7th trumpet to 7th vial.)

(Psalm 37:39-40) "But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.

And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him."

Back to Psalm 35:3,

3Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.

(This illustrates drawing out the spear (as in arrows) which is also seen in the Song of Moses for the end-times. It begins with grace through faith. Faith = shield/buckler. This is essential in stopping the arrows which is key because the Lord sends the arrows in the song of Moses. We must pick up the sword and put it into action out of our mouths. Doing this is truly applying the word to our lives.)

Don't forget about another view of this from Isaiah speaking of Christ at the cross where He delivered these spiritual goods for us. He won all battles over temptation and overcame all on the cross. That said, He is not happy one bit when you are careless with what He gave you, and you end up getting robbed by satan taking the spoils. Who wants to let their general down? (Luke 11:21-22). Better yet, is Christ your general?

(Isaiah 57:17-18) “For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.

18According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.”


(See here that what they reject, the same (with multiplied vengeance) comes right back on them. It's their reward so to speak.)

Let's move to Ephesians 2:2-3 as referenced above:

(Ephesians 2:2-3) “Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

(satan the prince of power of the air until Christ takes it from him at the 7th trumpet; Revelation 11:15. Amazingly enough this is the same air from the Greek used in I Thessalonians 4:17 for the first resurrection. To blow. That is exactly when Christ takes it back. That 7th trumpet).

3Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

(The evil spirits as they are disobedient which is why we put that sword of the Word of God to them which exposes their condition. They don't want to be cut to pieces because it hurts. All they do is influence people, bother them, tempt them, and condemn them all through fear (usually nicely, at first, to lure them in) from the outside until they have influenced them enough to be invited in because of these things. The ultimate goal is to possess a person. It is easily achieved when they bother a person so much that he just gives up at a loss for answers. The truths from the word as we are discussing here are the answers. This is no fencing match, no drawn out struggle when you can put it to satan and his followers by using the power and authority given to us through Christ. We can put them in fear in Yeshua the Mashiach (Christos) name, which is why we (in obedience) use the olive oil.)

Reference:

(Hebrews 4:12-13) “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

(This is a perfect illustration here; just as a sword physically cuts through the surface and exposes what's inside, it does the same spiritually, tearing down boundaries on the surface while creating a "window" (so to speak) or a view of the inward condition of a person.)
13Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.”

(We will stand up before God and be accountable for ourselves. Therefore, we must stand up against satan and take the ground he's trying to steal from us. It is evident all throughout the Bible what the Lord wants us to do (in what Christ paid for), so you can bet that we're going to pay the price for rejecting it. This, dear friends, is how we turn it right side up, making wrong right in satan's face!)

Paul wrote of this when addressing Christ's second coming in I Thessalonians 5. It can't be done if you're waiting on a rapture/pre-trib rapture that does not exist. Gathering back to Christ is one event. If you believe in the false teachings or are on the fence, God cannot use you. We need to be sure, sealed, and strong in mind. It is a battle of minds over satan and his followers. I will also say it is no surprise that these false teachers/prophets who teach rapture/pre-trib rapture do not and cannot even teach the Gospel Armor. If you are unsure or have not looked into it much, please refer to the targeted studies in the tag section; I Thessalonians 4:16, I Thessalonians 4:17, and II Thessalonians chapter 2.

(I Thessalonians 5:8) “But since we belong to the day, let us be sober (no bitter gall, double dipping), putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet.”

(Here I mean "double dipping" in reference to the wine of Christ or pleading the blood (as many say) but doing so while believing the wrong Gospel. We can only be in grace through faith (remember without faith it is impossible to please God). We are also acceptable to the Lord when doing right from the heart. Please note that we don't need to "plead" the blood--it's already part of it. It is what already defeated satan-the blood on and of the cross: Hebrews 2:14-15.)

Finally, let's look at the Song of Moses references for the end-times referring to those who take the mark of the beast because they are unprepared:

(Deuteronomy 32:25) “The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs.”

(No Word of God = fear. Young man to gray hairs is a Hebraism for all people and ages in between. Virgin = The foolish virgins who lamps went out. This is why we gird our loins with the truth and stand up tall and strong. That is where fear comes from--the pit of the stomach/loin area. We all have stress, and the management of it begins here to prevent it from getting to fear. As for the foolish virgins? “Woe to those who give suck.” Meaning, they reproduced and nursed satan's work along, not keeping their womb barren (Isaiah 54). This is symbolic for multiplying them.)

Moving on,

(Deuteronomy 32:27) “Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all this.”

(The Lord is in control, refer back to previous studies in which we went over this (Ephesians 6:15; The Gospel Armor; The Gospel Shoes Study). This is not the time to say, "Why me?" or "Why, God?" Or even, "Why are you doing this to me, satan?" The "why" is clear when it comes to satan; he comes to steal, kill, and destroy, and he will if you do not stand against him with your armor in place! Let him know he cannot have you. Knowing the Lord is in control should always bring you peace of mind. Keep your feet shod with the preparation of the Gospel of peace--walking all over satan through the power and authority given to us by Christ. (Luke 10:18-19). Never forget who gave us that power and authority and why. We cannot come in our own names without letting pride enter and expect to stand a chance. That's what satan did and still does which is why he is already condemned.)

Lastly, (Deuteronomy 32:42) “I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.”

Whose arrows? The Lord is in control. This is showing God's people He is in control. He goes over this many times to illustrate that. They reject Him He turns them over to what they asked for. How can they complain?

He allows satan as the Lord has agreed to in Revelation 17. You get shot with an arrow of course you're staggering around, looking for a way to stand. He gave is the way. Satan thinks his arrows are deadly, and they surely are. However, with the Gospel Armor defending us against him, he is nothing)!

(Ephesians 6:13) "Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. "
