 Preface to Embodiment of the Prophecy
Man Made in the Image of God
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 17, 2009

It is difficult to imagine anything more complex than the human body;

yet it was created as a faulted image of the perfect body of which we
shall be. For when the god’s created the first man they said, “’let Us
make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule
over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the
cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps
on the earth.’ God created man in His own image, in the image of
God He created him; male and female He created them.” (Genesis
1:26-27) For image is derived from the Latin word imaginem which
means to “copy”. Yet a copy is but an imitation of the original, and is
limited by that from which the image was created. For as we know,
our human bodies were created from dust of the earth. For the first
man was created from the dust of the ground, and by the breath of the
Spirit he was given life. (Genesis 2:7) And as dust of the earth, our
bodies are not immortal but must return to be dust of the earth. For
“all go to the same place. All came from the dust and all return to the
dust.” (Ecclesiastes 3:20)

And through the fallen image of mankind, the ruler of this earth has
held all men hostage, to be like dust of this world. Yet even in the
faulted body of dust, there is no greater beauty to be gleaned, than our
body as made in the image of God. For even our Lord who is God,
came to partake of this earthly existence. For “the Word became
flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only

1
begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14) And by
coming in the flesh, His children are freed from the bondage of sin.
For the law bound all people to the flesh, for the weakness of the flesh
causes all men to sin. But God sent His only begotten Son in the
weakness of the flesh, and offered His flesh for the sins of all men.
For He did not walk in the weakness of the flesh, but in the strength
of the Spirit. And those who are sons of the devil are condemned to
the flesh of the earth, but those who are sons of the Father are blessed
by the strength of the Spirit. (Romans 8:3-5)

Yet all men remain imprisoned in the flesh, while earth’s ruler holds
us captive in his grip. But the image of man’s flesh gives us
knowledge of its toil. For the rulers of this earth have spilled the wine
of innocent men, and have fornicated with the oil of the earth. And
the perfection of man lies not in the flesh but in the image of God.
And the value of the flesh lies not in earth’s gravity, but in the
knowledge we obtain while subject to its hold. And now that the time
is near, man strives to hold to life that is dear, but shall soon live in
trepidation and fear.

The Body of Mankind is the Temple
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed April 12, 2009

Temple is derived from the Latin root temporalis which means

“pertaining to time”. And it is through the test of time that the temple
was built. For the temple of God is the body of mankind, and the
temple was promised from the beginning of time. For the temple was
promised through the seed of Abram. For Abram pleaded to God,
that his seed might have an inheritance in the kingdom. For over a
long span of time, Abram was given no offspring to inherit the house.
And by Abram’s patience and faith, God answered his prayers. “One
who will come forth from your own body, he shall be your heir. And
He took him outside and said, ‘Now look toward the heavens, and
count the stars, if you are able to count them.’ And He said to him,
‘So shall your descendants be.’” (Genesis 15:2-5) And the nations of
Israel and Islam were born through his son Isaac. For Isaac prayed to
God that his seed would spread through Rebekah, for over many years
his wife remained barren. And the Lord answered Isaac’s prayers,
and through Rebekah’s womb conceived two sons. But the sons of
Isaac struggled within her womb, thus she inquired of the Lord, why
her sons would struggle in this way. And the Lord answered her,
“two nations are in your womb; and two peoples will be separated
from your body; and one people shall be stronger than the other; and
the older shall serve the younger.’” (Genesis 25:21-23)

3
And the first temple of God was built by His people. And God
promised that if they obeyed His commands, their temple and their
body would prosper. And God promised that if they obeyed, He
would place their nation above all the nations of the earth. And God
promised that if they obeyed, He would bless their city and their
country. And God promised that if they obeyed, that “blessed shall be
the offspring of your body and the produce of your ground and the
offspring of your beasts, the increase of your herd and the young of
your flock.” (Deuteronomy 28:1-4) But if they failed His commands,
their body and temple would perish. For God promised that if they
failed his commands, then curses would come and destroy them.
And God promised that if they failed his commands, He would curse
their city and country. And God promised that if they failed his
commands, He would curse their land and their harvest. And God
promised that if they failed his commands, then “cursed shall be the
offspring of your body and the produce of your ground, the increase
of your herd and the young of your flock.” (Deuteronomy 28:15-18)

And the body of His people would fail His commands, thus the
temple of His people would be destroyed. But God made a promise
that His temple would be rebuilt. And the temple would be built
through the body of His Son. For as the Lord promised to David, the
King would come through the fruit of his body. For “of the fruit of
your body I will set upon your throne. If your sons will keep My
covenant and My testimony which I will teach them, their sons also
shall sit upon your throne forever.” (Psalms 132:10-12) And the Lord
promised that His Son would be born in the flesh. For as the Son
said, “the LORD called Me from the womb; from the body of My
mother He named Me. He has made My mouth like a sharp sword, in
the shadow of His hand He has concealed Me; and He has also made

4
Me a select arrow, He has hidden Me in His quiver. He said to Me,
‘You are My Servant, Israel, in whom I will show My glory.’” (Isaiah
49:1-3) And the Lord promised that His Son would build up the
temple. “Thus says the LORD of hosts, ‘Behold, a man whose name is
Branch, for He will branch out from where He is; and He will build
the temple of the LORD. Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the
LORD, and He who will bear the honor and sit and rule on His throne.
Thus, He will be a priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will
be between the two offices.” (Zechariah 6:12-13)

Thus the Son would be born in the flesh, and would come to rebuild
the temple. For as the Son said to the priests of their temple,
“‘Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.’ The Jews
then said, ‘It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will You
raise it up in three days?’ But He was speaking of the temple of His
body.’” And the Son was crucified on the cross, and on the third day
He would rise from the dead. Then the people remembered His words,
and then the people believed. (John 2:19-22) For the temple was
built on the Bread, and His body was the Bread which was offered for
the temple of mankind. “While they were eating, He took some bread,
and after a blessing He broke it, and gave it to them, and said, ‘Take
it; this is My body.’” (Mark 14:22)

And after He had arisen from the dead, the Son sent the Spirit to build
up the temple. For the body of the temple would be built through the
Trinity. And the temple is one body through the Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit. “For even as the body is one and yet has many members,
and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body,
so also is Christ. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one
body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all
made to drink of one Spirit.” (1 Corinthians 12:12-13) For “there is

5
one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of
your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of
all who is over all and through all and in all.” (Ephesians 4:4-6) And
through one body of Christ the temple shall be built. “So then you are
no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the
saints, and are of God's household, having been built on the
foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being
the corner stone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, is
growing into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being
built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.” (Ephesians 2:19-
22)

For the temple has been built through the works of the Spirit. And
each servant has worked, each with his own individual ability, to
build up the temple of God. For “He gave some as apostles, and some
as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and
teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the
building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the
faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the
measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ. As a
result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves
and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men,
by craftiness in deceitful scheming; but speaking the truth in love, we
are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even
Christ, from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by
what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each
individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of
itself in love.” (Ephesians 4:11-16)

And on that day, the body of the temple shall be redeemed. For the
Son of Man shall return to the temple. And each man shall return to

6
the temple, but each at his own appointed time. “For as in Adam all
die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive. But each one in his own
order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ's at His
coming. Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God
the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and
power. For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet.
The last enemy that will be destroyed is death. For ‘He has put all
things under His feet.’ But when He says ‘all things are put under
Him,’ it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted.
Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself
will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God
may be all in all.” (1 Corinthians 15:22-28)

The Cell: A Room in God’s House
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed November 17, 2009

The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of all living
organisms. For it performs the fundamental processes of life, and is
often called the building block of life. And the human body is
composed of billions of individual cells. And each cell is created with
an individual function, and is integrated into making the body into a
whole. And the cell is the basic unit of all living men, and each man
is integrated into serving mankind as a whole. For each man was
created to serve mankind’s body, and each man must function and do
his own part. For “if the whole body were an eye, where would the
hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the sense of
smell be? But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in
the body, just as He desired. If they were all one member, where
would the body be? But now there are many members, but one body.”
(1 Corinthians 12:17-20) And each cell was produced from the first
cell. And each man was produced by the Creator who is God. For
“He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the
face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the
boundaries of their habitation, that they would seek God, if perhaps
they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from
each one of us; for in Him we live and move and exist, as even some
of your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His children.’” (Acts
17:26-28)

8
Cell is derived from the Latin word cella which means “small room”.
And the descriptive term for the smallest living biological structure
was coined by Robert Hooke when he compared the cork cells he saw
through his microscope to the small rooms that monks lived in. And
each man must prepare his own room, for as the Son taught each
man’s room would be rewarded by His Father in heaven. “When you
pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your
Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is done in
secret will reward you.” (Matthew 6:6) And His children have filled
up their rooms with God’s treasures, which is the richness of His
truth. For “by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and
pleasant riches.” (Proverbs 24:4) And each man was warned not to
curse in his room, for each room is seen by the King. “In your
bedchamber do not curse a king, and in your sleeping rooms do not
curse a rich man, for a bird of the heavens will carry the sound and
the winged creature will make the matter known.” (Ecclesiastes
10:20) And though their rooms dwell in the dark, on that day, each
man’s room shall be in the light. “Accordingly, whatever you have
said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have
whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed upon the housetops.”
(Luke 12:3)

And the first temple of God was built with many rooms. For “David
gave to his son Solomon the plan of the porch of the temple, its
buildings, its storehouses, its upper rooms, its inner rooms and the
room for the mercy seat; and the plan of all that he had in mind , for
the courts of the house of the LORD, and for all the surrounding
rooms, for the storehouses of the house of God and for the
storehouses of the dedicated things; also for the divisions of the
priests and the Levites and for all the work of the service of the house

9
of the LORD and for all the utensils of service in the house of the
LORD.” (1 Chronicles 28:11-13) And the rooms were overlaid with
the beauty of God’s gifts. For “inside he overlaid it with pure
gold. He overlaid the main room with cypress wood and overlaid it
with fine gold, and ornamented it with palm trees and chains.” (2
Chronicles 3:4-5) And when the rooms fell into neglect and decay,
His people prepared the rooms for their offerings. “Hezekiah
commanded them to prepare rooms in the house of the LORD, and
they prepared them.” (2 Chronicles 31:11)

And the rooms were prepared for that day. For when the cells are
bound together, they form one body; and when the rooms are joined
together, they form one house. And we as His saints are held in one
house. “So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are
fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household, having
been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus
Himself being the corner stone, in whom the whole building, being
fitted together, is growing into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom
you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit.”
(Ephesians 2:19-22) And the house of the Lord has many rooms.
For in His house are many dwelling places, and each man’s room is
built on his merit. “Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God,
believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if
it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for
you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive
you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.” (John 14:1-3)
And whoever leaves his house on the earth, shall inherit great
treasures in God’s kingdom. “Truly I say to you, there is no one who
has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or
farms, for My sake and for the gospel's sake, but that he will receive a

10
hundred times as much now in the present age, houses and brothers
and sisters and mothers and children and farms, along with
persecutions; and in the age to come, eternal life.” (Mark 10:29-30)
For our house is not built on the sand of the earth, but is built on the
rock who is God. For as the Lord said “everyone who comes to Me
and hears My words and acts on them, I will show you whom he is
like: he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a
foundation on the rock; and when a flood occurred, the torrent burst
against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well
built.” (Luke 6:47-48)

But all cells have the potential to produce and destroy. For the cell of
an embryo can promise new life, but the cell of malignancy can kill a
man’s life. For each man has the potential to produce and destroy.
And we have spread the promise of His Word, and we have produced
the fruits of the Spirit. And the works of the Spirit make us room for
our place before God. For “a man's gift makes room for him and
brings him before great men.” (Proverbs 18:16)

But many have destroyed and built works of injustice. “But woe to
him who builds his house without righteousness and his upper rooms
without justice, who uses his neighbor's services without pay and does
not give him his wages, who says, ‘I will build myself a roomy house
with spacious upper rooms, and cut out its windows, paneling it with
cedar and painting it bright red.'” (Jeremiah 22:13-14) And many
have worshiped false idols, and believe that God’s vision is blind.
“Son of man, do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are
committing in the dark, each man in the room of his carved images?
For they say, 'The LORD does not see us; the LORD has forsaken the
land.’” (Ezekiel 8:12) And now for their many iniquities, the people
must pay for their sins. “Come, my people, enter into your rooms and

11
close your doors behind you; hide for a little while until indignation
runs its course. For behold, the LORD is about to come out from His
place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; and the
earth will reveal her bloodshed and will no longer cover her slain.”
(Isaiah 26:20-21)

And the night before He was crucified, the Lord prepared a meal for
us all. For “the Teacher said to you, ‘Where is the guest room in
which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’ And he will show
you a large, furnished upper room; prepare it there. And they left and
found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the
Passover.” (Luke 22:11-13) And many were invited to His banquet,
but few men have entered His chamber. For His servants have
invited the guests. But “‘Master, what you commanded has been
done, and still there is room.’ And the Master said to the slave, ‘Go
out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come
in, so that my house may be filled.” But on that day, few men shall
eat at His table. “‘For I tell you, none of those men who were invited
shall taste of my dinner.’” (Luke 14:22-24)

And soon that day comes when the temple shall be complete. “Thus
says the LORD of hosts, ‘Let your hands be strong, you who are
listening in these days to these words from the mouth of the prophets,
those who spoke in the day that the foundation of the house of the
LORD of hosts was laid, to the end that the temple might be built.”
(Zechariah 8:9) And soon the fire of judgment shall test each man’s
work. For “the one who has heard and has not acted accordingly, is
like a man who built a house on the ground without any foundation;
and the torrent burst against it and immediately it collapsed, and the
ruin of that house was great.” (Luke 6:49) For the Groom shall come
out of the room, and His Bride shall come out of her chamber, and

12
then the last trumpet shall sound. “Blow a trumpet in Zion,
consecrate a fast, proclaim a solemn assembly, gather the people,
sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children and
the nursing infants. Let the bridegroom come out of his room and the
bride out of her bridal chamber. Let the priests, the LORD'S ministers,
weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, ‘Spare Your
people, O LORD, and do not make Your inheritance a reproach, a
byword among the nations. Why should they among the peoples say,
‘Where is their God?’” (Joel 2:16-17)

If a house is divided against itself,

that house will not be able to stand.

Mark 3:25

 III
The Skeleton of the Body
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 18, 2009

The skeleton is a tough yet flexible structure which supports the

weight of the body and protects its internal organs. Bone tissue is
constantly renewed and stores essential minerals within the body.
And the bones of the skeleton are joined together at the joints. And
some joints provide a wide range of movement; while other joints,
like the spine provide support and stability.

And God provides the skeleton of the earth that all men may live. For
“skeleton” is derived from the Greek word skeletos which means
“dry”. And when God created the heavens and the earth, He created
the dry land upon which all men could live. For “God said, ‘Let the
waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry
land appear; and it was so. God called the dry land earth, and the
gathering of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was
good.” (Genesis 1:9-10) But due to man’s transgressions, the Father
would remove the dry land with water. And during the flood the rain
claimed all the earth, but in the Lord’s mercy He restored dry land.
“Now it came about in the six hundred and first year, in the first
month, on the first of the month, the water was dried up from the
earth. Then Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and
behold, the surface of the ground was dried up. In the second month,
on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.” (Genesis
8:13-15) And by the Lord’s blessings, He would provide dry land
when the Israelites fled Egypt. For when the Israelites fled to the

14
Red Sea, God opened the sea and the sea became dry. “The sons of
Israel went through the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the
waters were like a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.”
(Exodus 14:22) And when the Israelites conquered their enemies, the
Lord provided dry land that they may enter the land. For when His
people came, the Lord dried up the Jordan, and they crossed on dry
land. “And the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the
LORD stood firm on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all
Israel crossed on dry ground, until all the nation had finished crossing
the Jordan.” (Joshua 3:17) And the Lord controls all of creation, for
He controls the seas and dry land. For “behold, He restrains the
waters, and they dry up; and He sends them out, and they inundate the
earth.” (Job 12:15)

And it was from Adam’s bones from which all men were created. For
it was not from the womb, but from Adam’s rib that the first woman
was created. “The LORD God fashioned into a woman the rib which
He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. The man
said, ‘This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall
be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.” (Genesis 2:22-
23) And God created Israel from one bone and one flesh. “Then all
Israel gathered to David at Hebron and said, ‘Behold, we are your
bone and your flesh.’” (1 Chronicles 11:1-2) And even in death, the
bone clings onto man’s body. “My bone clings to my skin and my
flesh, and I have escaped only by the skin of my teeth. “ (Job 19:20)
For the bone is the foundation of the body. And in semblance of
God’s body, the people did not break one bone of the sacrifice. “It is
to be eaten in a single house; you are not to bring forth any of the
flesh outside of the house, nor are you to break any bone of it.”
(Exodus 12:45-46) And “they shall leave none of it until morning,

15
nor break a bone of it; according to all the statute of the Passover they
shall observe it.” (Numbers 9:12) And the body of Christ was
sacrificed, and not a bone of His body was broken. “And he who has
seen has testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is
telling the truth, so that you also may believe. For these things came
to pass to fulfill the Scripture, ‘NOT A BONE OF HIM SHALL BE
BROKEN.’” (John 19:35-36)

And the structure of our skeleton is supported by our spine. And the
spine is the pillar which holds our skeleton together. For spine is
derived from the Nordic word spikr which means “nail”. And many
nails were prepared to hold the temple together. For “David prepared
large quantities of iron to make the nails for the doors of the gates and
for the clamps, and more bronze than could be weighed.” (1
Chronicles 22:3) And the nails for the holy were weighed out of gold.
“Now he made the room of the holy of holies: its length across the
width of the house was twenty cubits, and its width was twenty cubits;
and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to 600 talents. The
weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He also overlaid the
upper rooms with gold.” (2 Chronicles 3:8-9) And the nails in the
temple were soldered, so that the foundation would not totter. “So the
craftsman encourages the smelter, and he who smooths metal with the
hammer encourages him who beats the anvil, saying of the soldering,
‘It is good’; and he fastens it with nails, so that it will not totter.”
(Isaiah 41:7) Yet despite all the labor, the first temple “was not
good’, for the temple was built by man’s hands, and not by the hands
of our God, “They decorate it with silver and with gold; they fasten it
with nails and with hammers so that it will not totter …but the LORD
is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His
wrath the earth quakes, and the nations cannot endure His

16
indignation. Thus you shall say to them, ‘The gods that did not make
the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under
the heavens.’”(Jeremiah 10:4-11)

For the true and living Carpenter would build the second Temple. Yet
the people would proclaim, “where did this man get these things, and
what is this wisdom given to Him, and such miracles as these
performed by His hands? Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary,
and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon?” (Mark 6:2-3)
And the Carpenter would teach the people how to build the Temple.
“The words of wise men are like goads, and masters of these
collections are like well-driven nails; they are given by one
Shepherd.” (Ecclesiastes 12:11) And the Carpenter was nailed to the
cross, so that the Temple could be complete. “Men of Israel, listen to
these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with
miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him
in your midst, just as you yourselves know—this Man, delivered over
by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed to a
cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death. ‘But God
raised Him up again, putting an end to the agony of death, since it was
impossible for Him to be held in its power. ‘” (Acts 2:22-24) And by
being nailed to the cross, He nailed the final certificate of death. For
“when you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision
of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven
us all our transgressions, having canceled out the certificate of debt
consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has
taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.” (Colossians
2:13-15)

And the skull is the structure of the spine, which protects the mind of
a man. And the Mind of God was given to man, through His sacrifice

17
of love on the cross. (Addendum 1: The Mind of Man is Sacrificial
Love) But the sons of perdition have the mind of destruction, thus
their skulls shall be crushed by God’s servants. For Abimelich was
killed when a millstone crushed his skull. “A certain woman threw an
upper millstone on Abimelech's head, crushing his skull.” (Judges
9:53) And the dogs ate the body of Jezebel, but left her hands and
feet with her skull. “They went to bury her, but they found nothing
more of her than the skull and the feet and the palms of her hands.” (2
Kings 9:35) And the section of the skull which carries the brain is the
calvarium. And Christ was nailed at a place called Calvary. “And
when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they
crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the
other on the left.” (Luke 23:33) And He carried His cross to the Place
of a Skull. “They took Jesus, therefore, and He went out, bearing His
own cross, to the place called the Place of a Skull, which is called in
Hebrew, Golgotha.” (John 19:17) And when our Lord was crucified
on Calvary, and when our Lord would breathe out His last, the mind
of our Lord would depart. But now we are freed from the bondage of
sin, for our minds are now set on the Spirit. “For the mind set on the
flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace.”
(Romans 8:6)

And the bones of the dead shall be left for the grave. For as our Lord
said, “allow the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and
proclaim everywhere the kingdom of God.” (Luke 9:60) For the
bones are not meant for living, but are claimed by the dead. For if
“anyone who in the open field touches one who has been slain with a
sword or who has died naturally, or a human bone or a grave, shall be
unclean for seven days. Then for the unclean person they shall take
some of the ashes of the burnt purification from sin and flowing water

18
shall be added to them in a vessel. A clean person shall take hyssop
and dip it in the water, and sprinkle it on the tent and on all the
furnishings and on the persons who were there, and on the one who
touched the bone or the one slain or the one dying naturally or the
grave.” (Numbers 19:16-18)

But death no longer holds His people in its grasp. For by His very
Words, the Lord has risen dead bones from the ashes. For the
prophets foretold, that from bones a great army would be raised. “So
I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a
noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones came together, bone to its
bone. And I looked, and behold, sinews were on them, and flesh grew
and skin covered them; but there was no breath in them. Then He said
to me ‘Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and say to the
breath, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, ‘Come from the four winds, O
breath, and breathe on these slain, that they come to life.’ So I
prophesied as He commanded me, and the breath came into them, and
they came to life and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army.”
(Ezekiel 37:7-10) For the bones of the Temple have risen, the
imperishable souls are reborn, and the Spirit has breathed in them life.
“Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they
say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope has perished. We are
completely cut off.’ Therefore prophesy and say to them, ‘Thus says
the Lord GOD, ‘Behold, I will open your graves and cause you to
come up out of your graves, My people; and I will bring you into the
land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD, when I have
opened your graves and caused you to come up out of your graves,
My people. I will put My Spirit within you and you will come to life,
and I will place you on your own land. Then you will know that I, the

19
LORD, have spoken and done it,’ declares the LORD.’” (Ezekiel 37:11-
14)

A man can no more diminish God's glory by

refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out
the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the
walls of his cell.

C.S. Lewis

And behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all

sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in
the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the
trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised
imperishable, and we will be changed. For this
perishable must put on the imperishable, and this
mortal must put on immortality.

1 Corinthians 15:51-53

 IV
Musculature: The Stronghold of the Temple
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 18, 2009

The bones give the body structure and support, but it is the muscle
which generates force and does work. For the spine is supported by
the muscles, and the skeleton is strengthened by the muscles to do
work. And in like manner, the Body is supported by Christ the corner
stone of the Church, and the Body is strengthened by the Spirit to do
good works.

And the muscles give support to the Church. For the Lord does not
forsake His children, but supports us through all of our trials. For
“they confronted me in the day of my calamity, but the LORD was my
support.” (2 Samuel 22:19) And the Lord gives men their
inheritance, to those who value their lot. For “the LORD is the portion
of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot.” (Psalms 16:5)
And God supports those who give from their hearts. “For the eyes of
the LORD move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly
support those whose heart is completely His.” (2 Chronicles 16:9)
And His greatest support is for Jerusalem His Temple. “Then the
clans of Judah will say in their hearts, ‘A strong support for us are the
inhabitants of Jerusalem through the LORD of hosts, their God.’”
(Zechariah 12:5)

Yet God does not support but condemns those who forsake Him. For
“God will not reject a man of integrity, nor will He support the
evildoers.” (Job 8:20) For the day will soon come when calamity

21
strikes the earth, and none shall escape. “Go on your way, inhabitant
of Shaphir, in shameful nakedness. The inhabitant of Zaanan does not
escape. The lamentation of Beth-ezel: ‘He will take from you its
support.’” (Micah 1:11) And God shall remove His support from the
nations. “For behold, the Lord GOD of hosts is going to remove from
Jerusalem and Judah both supply and support, the whole supply of
bread and the whole supply of water; the mighty man and the warrior,
the judge and the prophet, the diviner and the elder, the captain of
fifty and the honorable man, the counselor and the expert artisan, and
the skillful enchanter. And I will make mere lads their princes, and
capricious children will rule over them, and the people will be
oppressed, each one by another, and each one by his neighbor; the
youth will storm against the elder and the inferior against the honor.”
(Isaiah 3:1-5)

And our muscles not only give us support, but they also give us great
strength. For “the LORD will continually guide you, and satisfy your
desire in scorched places, and give strength to your bones.” (Isaiah
58:11) For the Lord is of great power and strength. And “the LORD
is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation; this is my
God, and I will praise Him; My father's God, and I will extol
Him. The LORD is a warrior; the LORD is His name.” (Exodus 15:2-3)
For it was by God’s strength that His people were freed. “Then the
Egyptians will hear of it, for by Your strength You brought up this
people from their midst, and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this
land. They have heard that You, O LORD, are in the midst of this
people, for You, O LORD, are seen eye to eye, while Your cloud
stands over them; and You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day
and in a pillar of fire by night.” (Numbers 14:13-14) And it was by
His strength that the mountains were established, and it was by His

22
power that the seas and waves roar. “By awesome deeds You answer
us in righteousness, O God of our salvation, You who are the trust of
all the ends of the earth and of the farthest sea; who establishes the
mountains by His strength, being girded with might; who stills the
roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the tumult of the
peoples.” (Psalms 65:5-7) And it is by God’s strength that the stars
dwell on high. “Lift up your eyes on high and see who has created
these stars, the One who leads forth their host by number, He calls
them all by name; because of the greatness of His might and the
strength of His power, not one of them is missing.” (Isaiah 40:26)
And it is by His strength that He holds all men’s hearts. “Behold, He
restrains the waters, and they dry up; and He sends them out, and they
inundate the earth. With Him are strength and sound wisdom, the
misled and the misleader belong to Him.” (Job 12:15-16)

But God curses those who trust in their flesh. For “cursed is the man
who trusts in mankind and makes flesh his strength, and whose heart
turns away from the LORD.” (Jeremiah 17:5) And God removes
strength from those who forsake Him. For did He not remove the
strength of Cain, when he shed his own brother’s blood? “Now you
are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive
your brother's blood from your hand. When you cultivate the ground,
it will no longer yield its strength to you; you will be a vagrant and a
wanderer on the earth.” (Genesis 4:11-12) And did He not punish His
people, by removing the strength from the land? “Your strength will
be spent uselessly, for your land will not yield its produce and the
trees of the land will not yield their fruit.” (Leviticus 26:20) And did
He not tell the transgressors, that the strength would belong to their
enemies? “They will therefore stumble over each other as if running
from the sword, although no one is pursuing; and you will have no

23
strength to stand up before your enemies.” (Leviticus 26:37) For all
strength is held in the hands of the Son, and His enemies shall be
shattered by His rod. For “those who contend with the LORD will be
shattered; against them He will thunder in the heavens, the LORD will
judge the ends of the earth; and He will give strength to His king, and
will exalt the horn of His anointed.” (1 Samuel 2:10)

And the King shall return to claim what is His. “And He will arise and
shepherd His flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the
name of the LORD His God. And they will remain, because at that
time He will be great to the ends of the earth.” (Micah 5:4) But those
who worship the beast, shall drink the full cup of God’s wrath. “If
anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his
forehead or on his hand, he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of
God, which is mixed in full strength in the cup of His anger; and he
will be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy
angels and in the presence of the Lamb.” (Revelation 14:9-10) And
Babylon the Great shall burn in His hands. “For this reason in one day
her plagues will come, pestilence and mourning and famine, and she
will be burned up with fire; for the Lord God who judges her is
strong.” (Revelation 18:8)

But though the flesh is weak, by each one’s strength, the body of Our
Lord is made strong. “‘Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is
one. And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with
all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is
the first commandment.” (Mark 12:29-30) For it is through the
strength of our Lord, that our bodies may accomplish His work. And
“those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; they will mount
up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will
walk and not become weary.” (Isaiah 40:31)

24
And it is through the strength of the Spirit, that the Lord would
accomplish His work. And it was by the strength of God’s hand, that
the work on the earth was complete. “By the seventh day God
completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh
day from all His work which He had done. Then God blessed the
seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His
work which God had created and made.” (Genesis 2:2-3) And it was
by the strength of His people that the work on the tabernacle was
complete. “Thus all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting
was completed; and the sons of Israel did according to all that the
LORD had commanded Moses; so they did.” (Exodus 39:32) And it
was by the strength of His people, that the work on the temple was
complete. “Thus all the work of Solomon was carried out from the
day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was
finished. So the house of the LORD was completed.” (2 Chronicles
8:16) And it was by the strength of the Son that the Father’s work was
complete. “I glorified You on the earth, having accomplished the
work which You have given Me to do. Now, Father, glorify Me
together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before
the world was.” (John 17:4-5)

And it is through the strength of the Spirit, that we complete His good
works. For “what use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith
but he has no works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is
without clothing and in need of daily food, and one of you says to
them, ‘Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,’ and yet you do not give
them what is necessary for their body, what use is that? Even so faith,
if it has no works, is dead, being by itself. But someone may well say,
‘You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the
works, and I will show you my faith by my works.’ You believe that

25
God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder. But
are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith without
works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works
when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar? You see that faith was
working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was
perfected; and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, ‘And Abraham
believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness,’ and he
was called the friend of God. You see that a man is justified by works
and not by faith alone. In the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also
justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them
out by another way? For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so
also faith without works is dead.” (James 2:14-26)

And on the last day, only man’s righteous works of the Spirit shall
remain through the fire. “For no man can lay a foundation other than
the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man builds on
the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay,
straw, each man's work will become evident; for the day will show it
because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the
quality of each man's work. If any man's work which he has built on it
remains, he will receive a reward. If any man's work is burned up, he
will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.”
(1 Corinthians 3:11-15)

And now that time draws near, His people shall gain new strength.
“Coastlands, listen to Me in silence, and let the peoples gain new
strength; let them come forward, then let them speak; let us come
together for judgment.” (Isaiah 41:1) And as the time draws near, the
saints shall awake from their sleep. “Awake, awake, clothe yourself in
your strength, O Zion; clothe yourself in your beautiful garments, O
Jerusalem, the holy city; for the uncircumcised and the unclean will

26
no longer come into you. Shake yourself from the dust, rise up, O
captive Jerusalem; loose yourself from the chains around your neck,
O captive daughter of Zion.” (Isaiah 52:1-2) And His army shall be
raised and garner great strength. “The LORD utters His voice before
His army; surely His camp is very great, for strong is he who carries
out His word. The day of the LORD is indeed great and very awesome,
and who can endure it? (Joel 2:11) For the Day of the great wrath
shall soon come, and who can endure it … yes who can endure it
indeed.

 V
The Nervous System: The Mind and the Word of God
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 20, 2009

The nervous system is a complex network which controls the body.

And the central nervous system is controlled by the brain and
transmits its messages through the spinal cord. And it is through the
brain, which is the mind of man, that we control our bodies. And it is
the mind of man which separates men from the beasts of the earth.
For it is through the mind of man, that we are given free choice. For
it is through our minds, that God lets us choose between life and
death.

The word brain is derived from the Latin word brekhmos which
means “skull”. And it is through the Lord’s death at the place of the
Skull, that man has come to know God. “When they came to the
place called The Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals,
one on the right and the other on the left. But Jesus was saying,
‘Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing.’”.
(Luke 23:33-34) For the skull is the helmet which protects a man’s
brain, as salvation is the helmet which protects a man’s mind. For it is
through His sacrifice on the cross, that man has been given the
salvation of God. (Addendum 1: The Trinity of God: Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit/ The Mind of Christ is Sacrificial Love) And through the
death of the Lord at the Skull, our helmet of salvation is assured. For
“He put on righteousness like a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation
on His head; and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing and

28
wrapped Himself with zeal as a mantle.” (Isaiah 59:17) And now we
put on the helmet of salvation. For as “we are of the day, let us be
sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet,
the hope of salvation. For God has not destined us for wrath, but for
obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, so
that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him.”
(1 Thessalonians 5:8-10)

And the portion of the brain which controls our choice is the
cerebrum. And cerebrum is derived from the Latin word cerebrum
which means “head”. And the head of the Church is the Son, and
through His image we can choose life over death. For “He is the
image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him
all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and
invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all
things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all
things, and in Him all things hold together. He is also head of the
body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead,
so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.”
(Colossians 1:15-18) And Christ is the head of the body, and by His
portion of death, He has made our minds complete. “For in Him all
the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, and in Him you have been
made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority.”
(Colossians 2:9-10)

And the brain transmits its message through the spinal cord. And the
Son transmits His message through the Word. For the spine is
derived from the Latin word spina which means “sharp”. And the
Word of God is a sharp two-edged sword, which pierces soul and
spirit, and judges mind and heart. “For the word of God is living and
active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as

29
the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to
judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And there is no creature
hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes
of Him with whom we have to do.” (Hebrews 4:12-13) And it was
prophesied that His Word would judge all the earth. “Son of man,
prophesy and say, ‘Thus says the LORD.’ Say, ‘A sword, a sword
sharpened and also polished! ‘Sharpened to make a slaughter,
polished to flash like lightning!’ Or shall we rejoice, the rod of My
son despising every tree? It is given to be polished, that it may be
handled; the sword is sharpened and polished, to give it into the hand
of the slayer. Cry out and wail, son of man; for it is against My
people, it is against all the officials of Israel.” (Ezekiel 21:9-12) And
at the judgment His Word shall judge all men. For the Son of Man
shall rise, and “in His right hand He holds seven stars, and out of His
mouth comes a sharp two-edged sword; and His face was like the sun
shining in its strength.” (Revelation 1:16) Thus the brain transmits
its message to the body through the spinal cord. And the mind of
Christ transmits the message to the body of the church through His
Word.

But when the brain becomes demented, the mind begins to forget.
And Moses forewarned the people, that their minds should remember
and not forget. “Beware that you do not forget the LORD your God by
not keeping His commandments and His ordinances and His statutes
which I am commanding you today; otherwise, when you have eaten
and are satisfied, and have built good houses and lived in them, and
when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and gold
multiply, and all that you have multiplies, then your heart will become
proud and you will forget the LORD your God who brought you out
from the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.” (Deuteronomy

30
8:11-14) But the mind of man has not remembered, but has forgotten
that He is God. “Thus My people are destroyed for lack of
knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject
you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your
God, I also will forget your children.” (Hosea 4:6)

For the mind of man is present in this world, to remember the

difference between good and evil. For the difference was manifest in
the Garden from the beginning. For “out of the ground the LORD God
caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for
food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil.” (Genesis 2:9) And when they ate from
the tree of knowledge, the mind of man was given to them, for from it
came the knowledge of good and evil . “For God knows that in the
day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like
God, knowing good and evil.” (Genesis 3:5-6) Thus God sent man
through this realm of time and space, in order to learn the difference
of its ways. “‘Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing
good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also
from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever’— therefore the LORD
God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground
from which he was taken. So He drove the man out; and at the east of
the garden of Eden He stationed the cherubim and the flaming sword
which turned every direction to guard the way to the tree of life.”
(Genesis 3:22-24)

And the purpose of this life is to eat from the tree of life, so that man
no longer may die, but live with the Giver of life. But man chose not
to LIVE, but turned life around in order to do EVIL. For the hearts of
men were given to evil, thus God would smite them from the earth.
For “the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth,

31
and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil
continually. The LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth,
and He was grieved in His heart. The LORD said, ‘I will blot out man
whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals
to creeping things and to birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have
made them.’” (Genesis 6:5-7) And with evil they worshipped false
idols, thus they were destroyed in the desert. “So the LORD'S anger
burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness
forty years, until the entire generation of those who had done evil in
the sight of the LORD was destroyed.” (Numbers 32:13) And with
evil the sons would worship false gods, thus God would hand them to
their enemies. “The sons of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD
and served the Baals, and they forsook the LORD, the God of their
fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed
other gods from among the gods of the peoples who were around
them, and bowed themselves down to them; thus they provoked the
LORD to anger. So they forsook the LORD and served Baal and the
Ashtaroth. The anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He gave
them into the hands of plunderers who plundered them; and He sold
them into the hands of their enemies around them, so that they could
no longer stand before their enemies. Wherever they went, the hand of
the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had spoken and as
the LORD had sworn to them, so that they were severely distressed.”
(Judges 2:11-15)

And the sons of perdition continue to devise evil plans. “'Thus says
the Lord GOD, ‘It will come about on that day, that thoughts will
come into your mind and you will devise an evil plan, and you will
say, ‘I will go up against the land of unwalled villages. I will go
against those who are at rest, that live securely, all of them living

32
without walls and having no bars or gates, to capture spoil and to
seize plunder, to turn your hand against the waste places which are
now inhabited, and against the people who are gathered from the
nations, who have acquired cattle and goods, who live at the center of
the world.” (Ezekiel 38:10-12) But now God shall punish them for
their evil ways. “You who hate good and love evil, who tear off their
skin from them and their flesh from their bones, who eat the flesh of
my people, strip off their skin from them, break their bones and chop
them up as for the pot and as meat in a kettle. Then they will cry out
to the LORD, but He will not answer them. Instead, He will hide His
face from them at that time because they have practiced evil deeds.”
(Micah 3:2-4) And God shall punish all evil in this world. “Thus I
will punish the world for its evil and the wicked for their iniquity; I
will also put an end to the arrogance of the proud and abase the
haughtiness of the ruthless.” (Isaiah 13:11) And he who has chosen
evil shall bring about his own death.

But he who lives from righteousness, shall live and attain to life. For
“he who is steadfast in righteousness will attain to life, and he who
pursues evil will bring about his own death.” (Proverbs 11:19) And
the Word of God brings us goodness and life. For the Word was there
from the beginning. “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with
God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him
nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life,
and the life was the Light of men.” (John 1:1-4) And the forefathers
spoke of His Word, that not one of His words would fail. “You know
in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one word of all the
good words which the LORD your God spoke concerning you has
failed; all have been fulfilled for you, not one of them has failed.”

33
(Joshua 23:14) And the Word became flesh and dwelt amongst men.
“For the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His
glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and
truth.” (John 1:14) And the Word would teach that all men could live.
For as “it is written, ‘man shall not live on bread alone, but on every
word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’” (Matthew 4:4) And
after the Word was nailed to the cross, the Word would spread
amongst men. Thus “the word of God kept on spreading; and the
number of the disciples continued to increase greatly in Jerusalem,
and a great many of the priests were becoming obedient to the faith.”
(Acts 6:7) For the choice between good and evil, is the choice
between life and death, or the choice to live by His Word. For as
Moses said of the Word which gives life, “it is not an idle word for
you; indeed it is your life. And by this word you will prolong your
days in the land, which you are about to cross the Jordan to possess.”
(Deuteronomy 32:47) And as the Word would teach us about life,
“truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him
who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but
has passed out of death into life.” (John 5:24) And as we continue to
teach about the Word of Life, “what was from the beginning, what we
have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at
and touched with our hands, concerning the Word of Life— and the
life was manifested, and we have seen and testify and proclaim to you
the eternal life, which was with the Father and was manifested to us—
what we have seen and heard we proclaim to you also, so that you
too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with
the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ. These things we write, so
that our joy may be made complete.”(1 John 1:1-4) And at the end the
Word of God shall return. “I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white
horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in

34
righteousness He judges and wages war. His eyes are a flame of fire,
and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on
Him which no one knows except Himself. He is clothed with a robe
dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.”
(Revelation 19:11-13)

 VI
The Heart of His People
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 23, 2009

The heart is a four chambered muscle which pumps blood throughout

the body. And the heart produces the works of the Spirit, which His
children have spread throughout the nations. (Addendum 1: The
Trinity of God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit/ The Spirit of Man is his
Heart) And blood is the life of all men, for through water and blood,
oxygen spreads throughout the body. And the blood of Christ is the
life of the people, for through water and blood, the Spirit spreads
through all the nations. For as He said, “drink from it, all of you; for
this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for
forgiveness of sins.” (Matthew 26:27-28) And it is through the Father,
Son and Holy Spirit that our works are made manifest. “Who is the
one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the
Son of God? This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus
Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood.
It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. For there
are three that testify: the Spirit and the water and the blood; and the
three are in agreement.” (1 John 5:5-8)

The heart carries oxygen throughout the body. And from the
beginning the heart carried man’s spirit throughout the body. But the
heart of God’s Spirit was far from man’s heart. “Then the LORD saw
that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every
intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. The

36
LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was
grieved in His heart. The LORD said, “I will blot out man whom I
have created from the face of the land, from man to animals to
creeping things and to birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have
made them. But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.” (Genesis
6:5-8) And in the heart of Noah the Spirit of God would live. And he
and his family would offer a worthy sacrifice. “Then Noah built an
altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean
bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. But the heart of The
LORD smelled the soothing aroma; and the LORD said to Himself, "I
will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the intent of
man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will never again destroy
every living thing, as I have done. While the earth remains, seedtime
and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and
night shall not cease.” (Genesis 8:20-22)

The heart is supplied by coronary arteries which carry oxygen to the

cardiac muscle. But the coronary arteries can be hardened through
atherosclerosis, which causes the cardiac muscle to die. And God can
harden any man’s heart. For was it not God who hardened Pharaoh’s
heart? “You shall speak all that I command you, and your brother
Aaron shall speak to Pharaoh that he let the sons of Israel go out of
his land. But I will harden Pharaoh's heart that I may multiply My
signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt.” (Exodus 7:2-4) And did
God not harden the hearts of great kings? For God hardened the heart
of Sihon. “Sihon king of Heshbon was not willing for us to pass
through his land; for the LORD your God hardened his spirit and
made his heart obstinate, in order to deliver him into your hand, as he
is today.” (Deuteronomy 2:30) And God hardened the heart of
Zedekiah. “Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became

37
king, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. He did evil in the
sight of the LORD his God; he did not humble himself before Jeremiah
the prophet who spoke for the LORD. He also rebelled against King
Nebuchadnezzar who had made him swear allegiance by God. But he
stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against turning to the LORD
God of Israel.” (2 Chronicles 36:11-13)

And God warned His people not to harden, but to love Him with all
their hearts. “Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one!
You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all
your soul and with all your might.” (Deuteronomy 6:4-5) And the
mind of Christ would reaffirm the same. “Hear, O Israel! The LORD
is our God, the LORD is one! You shall love the LORD your God with
all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with
all your might.” (Mark 12:29-30) And He commanded His people not
to harden their hearts, but to watch over their neighbors. “The second
is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself’. There is no other
commandment greater than these.” (Mark 12:31) And He
commanded His people not to harden their hearts, but to care for the
poor. “If there is a poor man with you, one of your brothers, in any of
your towns in your land which the LORD your God is giving you, you
shall not harden your heart, nor close your hand from your poor
brother; but you shall freely open your hand to him, and shall
generously lend him sufficient for his need in whatever he lacks.”
(Deuteronomy 15:7-8) But the prophets foretold that many would
harden their hearts. “For You are our Father, though Abraham does
not know us and Israel does not recognize us. You, O LORD, are our
Father, Our Redeemer from of old is Your name. Why, O LORD, do
You cause us to stray from Your ways and harden our heart from
fearing You? Return for the sake of Your servants, the tribes of Your

38
heritage.” (Isaiah 63:16-17) And the Son would affirm when these
words were fulfilled, for though the people could see, they would
harden their hearts to the Word. “For this reason they could not
believe, for Isaiah said again, "HE HAS BLINDED THEIR EYES AND HE
HARDENED THEIR HEART, SO THAT THEY WOULD NOT SEE WITH THEIR
EYES AND PERCEIVE WITH THEIR HEART, AND BE CONVERTED AND I
HEAL THEM.” (John 12:39-40)

And the heart has an autonomous function, for it beats on its own to
keep pace with the body. For when the body demands more work, the
heart quickens to supply more blood to the body. But man’s heart
has been slow to believe, thus the Lord would quicken their spirit.
“And He said to them, ‘O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in
all that the prophets have spoken! Was it not necessary for the Christ
to suffer these things and to enter into His glory?’ Then beginning
with Moses and with all the prophets, He explained to them the things
concerning Himself in all the Scriptures.” (Luke 24:25-27)

And the heart has four chambers which pump blood and water, and
carry oxygen and nutrients through the body. And the four-
chambered heart pumps water through the body, and the Father
brought water through four rivers in the Garden. “Now a river flowed
out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it divided and became
four rivers. The name of the first is Pishon; it flows around the whole
land of Havilah, where there is gold. The gold of that land is good; the
bdellium and the onyx stone are there. The name of the second river is
Gihon; it flows around the whole land of Cush. The name of the third
river is Tigris; it flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the
Euphrates.” (Genesis 2:10-14)

39
And the four-chambered heart pumps blood throughout the body. And
the four cornered altar carries blood throughout the Body. “You shall
give to the Levitical priests who are from the offspring of Zadok, who
draw near to Me to minister to Me,' declares the Lord GOD, 'a young
bull for a sin offering. You shall take some of its blood and put it on
its four horns and on the four corners of the ledge and on the border
round about; thus you shall cleanse it and make atonement for it.”
(Ezekiel 43:19-20) “Thus says the Lord GOD, ‘In the first month, on
the first of the month, you shall take a young bull without blemish and
cleanse the sanctuary. The priest shall take some of the blood from
the sin offering and put it on the door posts of the house, on the four
corners of the ledge of the altar and on the posts of the gate of the
inner court.” (Ezekiel 45:18-19)

And the four-chambered heart carries oxygen throughout the body.

And the four spirits of heaven carry the Spirit throughout the Body.
“Now I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, four chariots
were coming forth from between the two mountains; and the
mountains were bronze mountains. With the first chariot were red
horses, with the second chariot black horses, with the third chariot
white horses, and with the fourth chariot strong dappled horses. Then
I spoke and said to the angel who was speaking with me, ‘What are
these, my lord?’ The angel replied to me, ‘These are the four spirits
of heaven, going forth after standing before the Lord of all the
earth, with one of which the black horses are going forth to the north
country; and the white ones go forth after them, while the dappled
ones go forth to the south country. When the strong ones went out,
they were eager to go to patrol the earth. And He said, ‘Go, patrol the
earth.’ So they patrolled the earth. Then He cried out to me and spoke

40
to me saying, ‘See, those who are going to the land of the north have
appeased My wrath in the land of the north.’” (Zechariah 6:1-8)

Thus the heart is the vessel which works for the body. And the heart
of the Body is the Elect. For the Elect are the prophets and martyrs
and saints, who have worked for the body of mankind. And through
their work and great suffering, the Son taught them not to lose heart,
for the last day of justice would come. “He was telling them a parable
to show that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose
heart, saying, ‘In a certain city there was a judge who did not fear
God and did not respect man. There was a widow in that city, and she
kept coming to him, saying, ‘Give me legal protection from my
opponent.’ For a while he was unwilling; but afterward he said to
himself, ‘Even though I do not fear God nor respect man, yet because
this widow bothers me, I will give her legal protection, otherwise by
continually coming she will wear me out.’ And the Lord said, ‘Hear
what the unrighteous judge said; now, will not God bring about
justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night, and will He delay
long over them? I tell you that He will bring about justice for them
quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on
the earth?’” (Luke 18:1-8)

And the heart of the Elect is made of four chambers. For on that day,
their blood shall be gathered from four winds of the earth. For “they
will see THE SON OF MAN COMING IN CLOUDS power and glory. And
then He will send forth the angels, and will gather together His elect
from the four winds, from the farthest end of the earth to the farthest
end of heaven.” (Mark 13:26-27) And on that day, they shall be
gathered by four spirits in heaven. “Then the sixth angel sounded,
and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is
before God, one saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet,

41
‘Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.
And the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and
month and year, were released, so that they would kill a third of
mankind.’” (Revelation 9:13-15)

And though God has given to man from His heart, he has caused
innocent blood to be shed. For “your eyes and your heart are intent
only upon your own dishonest gain, and on shedding innocent blood
and on practicing oppression and extortion.” (Jeremiah 22:17) Thus
man’s heart shall be eaten like flesh, and man’s blood shall be
drunken like the wine. “I will feed your oppressors with their own
flesh, and they will become drunk with their own blood as with sweet
wine; and all flesh will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and
your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.” (Isaiah 49:26)

The Son is Sacrificial Blood
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed September 7, 2007

For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is

shed for many for the remission of sins. But I say to
you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now
on until that day when I drink it new with you in My
Father's kingdom. Matthew 26:28-29

The blood of the lamb was a sign of the covenant

“But you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood. Surely for
your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning; from the hand of every
beast I will require it, and from the hand of man. From the hand of
every man's brother I will require the life of man. Whoever sheds
man's blood, by man his blood shall be shed; for in the image of God
He made man.” Genesis 9:4

“Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are.
And when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall
not be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt...For the
Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians; and when He sees the

43
blood on the lintel and on the two doorposts, the Lord will pass over
the door and not allow the destroyer to come into your houses to
strike you.” Exodus 12:13,23

“And Moses took the blood, sprinkled it on the people, and said,
‘Behold, the blood of the covenant which the Lord has made with you
according to all these words.’” Exodus 24:7

Due to their iniquity, God despised Israel’s sacrifice

“‘To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices to Me?’ says the
Lord. ‘I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed
cattle. I do not delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs or goats.’”
Isaiah 1:11

“For behold, the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants
of the earth for their iniquity; the earth will also disclose her blood,
and will no more cover her slain.” Isaiah 26:21

“I will feed those who oppress you with their own flesh, and they
shall be drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine. All flesh
shall know that I, the Lord, am your Savior, and your Redeemer, the
Mighty One of Jacob.” Isaiah 49:26

“Why is Your apparel red, and Your garments like one who treads in
the winepress? I have trodden the winepress alone, and from the
peoples no one was with Me. For I have trodden them in My anger,
and trampled them in My fury; their blood is sprinkled upon My
garments, and I have stained all My robes. For the day of vengeance
is in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come.” Isaiah 63:2-4

44
Christ the Lamb offered His blood for mankind

“For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many
for the remission of sins. But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit
of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in
My Father's kingdom.” Matthew 26:28-29

“And you drank wine, the blood of the grapes.” Deuteronomy 32:14

Christ the Lion will drink the blood of mankind

“Then Jesus said to them, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you
eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life
in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life,
and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is food indeed,
and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My
blood abides in Me, and I in him.’” John 6:53-56

“And they cried with a loud voice, saying, ‘How long, O Lord, holy
and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell
on the earth?’” Revelation 6:10

“So the angel thrust his sickle into the earth and gathered the vine of
the earth, and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
And the winepress was trampled outside the city, and blood came out

45
of the winepress, up to the horses' bridles, for one thousand six
hundred furlongs” Revelation 14:19-20

46
 Mankind’s Blood Will Be Shed

Blood is the sustenance of life. And blood is the life of a man

(Genesis 9:4), as God is the life of man’s soul. And blood is the
symbol of life, for it gives us a semblance of the kingdom to come.
And blood is made of water and cells, that is moved by a pumping
heart and carries O2 through the body. And spiritual blood is
sustained by the Father (water) and the sacrifice of Christ’s blood (red
cells), which is moved by the Spirit (heart), and carries His gifts
(oxygen) through the Church.

The Lord instructed His people, not to eat the blood of their food, for
blood is the symbol of life. “But you shall not eat flesh with its life,
that is, its blood.”(Genesis 9:4) The Lord instructed His people to use
the blood of the lamb, as His lasting promise to them. For the blood
was the sign of the life, that they would be His chosen nation, if they
would follow Him. For on the eve they crossed the sea, the Israelites
spread the blood of a lamb on the lintel and posts of two doors, that
the angel of death would pass. (Exodus 12:13,23) And when His
people were set free, the blood was sprinkled on them. “Behold, the
blood of the covenant which the Lord has made with you according to
all these words.”(Exodus 24:7)

But with greed and hate in their hearts, they would shed the blood of
their foes. For they did not heed His command, but shed their
enemies blood on the land, on land that was not theirs to keep. And
covetous murder prevailed, and the Lord rebuked them in anger, “I
have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed cattle. I
do not delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs or goats.”(Isaiah 1:11)

47
And by the words of the prophet, He promised man’s blood would be
shed, “For behold, the Lord comes out of His place to punish the
inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; the earth will also disclose
her blood, and will no more cover her slain.”(Isaiah 26:21) And He
promised man’s blood would be drunken like wine, “they shall be
drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine.”(Isaiah 49:26) For the
wine would not come from the vine, but would come from the blood
of mankind. “I have trodden the winepress alone.”(Isaiah 63:2-4)

God sent His only begotten Son, that He would shed His blood for
man. He humbled Himself and became a man, that through His
Word and sacrifice, we would know the Way the Truth and Life.
(John 14:6) And through the Son of Man’s own will, He offered His
blood for our sins. He was nailed to the cross and crucified, that our
sins would be washed away. And on the third day He rose again, that
the Spirit could dwell amongst us. “For this is My blood of the new
covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.”(Matthew
26:28-29)

But few have shed their blood for the Lord, as He shed His blood for
mankind. For only the prophets, martyrs and saints, (the 144,000)
have shed their own blood for His cause. And they will be pardoned
from the wrath, for as the prophecy says, “he who overcomes shall
not be hurt by the second death.'' (Revelation 2:11)

And the second death will come soon. For did He not promise to us,
when at the table of sacrifice, and offered the cup of His blood?, “I
will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when
I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom.” (Matthew 26:28-29)
And what is the fruit of the vine? GRAPES. And what do we get
from the grapes? WINE. And what does the wine represent?

48
BLOOD. Yes and the metaphor is this, for “you drank wine, the
blood of the grapes.” (Deuteronomy 32:14)

And the end times are upon us, for the day of judgment is near, and
the prophecy shall be fulfilled. “So the angel thrust his sickle into the
earth and gathered the vine of the earth, and threw it into the great
winepress of the wrath of God. And the winepress was trampled
outside the city, and blood came out of the winepress, up to the
horses' bridles, for one thousand six hundred furlongs.”(Revelation
14:19-20) Because mankind has turned from the Lord, and broken the
covenant of His Son, just as we drank the blood of the Lord, so
shall He drink the blood of mankind! And we can make peace with
the Father, only through the payment of our sins. For the payment of
our sins is this, our sins must be paid by the blood of our deaths, and
the death of this world and mankind. But remember that His
judgment is fair, “for You shall judge the people righteously, And
govern the nations on earth.”(Psalms 67:4) And His love is
everlasting, for through His payment and His justice, and through the
winepress and the wrath, we can now return to the Father.

So let His wrath come, not with curse nor disdain, but with praise and
thanksgiving, for He is just and true, and forgiving and faithful to us
all. Let us fall to our knees and worship the King. He is King of all
Kings and Lord of all Lords. COME LORD JESUS, COME!

 VIII
Our Eyes Give Us Vision from Light
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 25, 2009

Our eyes receive light from the sun, which is processed by our brain,
and thus gives us sight. And our eyes receive Light from the Son,
which is processed by our minds, and thus gives us vision. For
Balaam spoke of the vision of His people. “The oracle of the man
whose eye is opened; the oracle of him who hears the words of God,
who sees the vision of the Almighty, falling down, yet having his eyes
uncovered, how fair are your tents, O Jacob, Your dwellings, O
Israel!” (Numbers 24:3-5)

For vision begins with the light, for without light our eyes remain
blind. And from the beginning God gave us light. “God said, ‘Let
there be light’; and there was light. God saw that the light was good;
and God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light
day, and the darkness He called night.” (Genesis 1:3-5) And God
made light from the sun, moon and stars. “God made the two great
lights, the greater light to govern the day, and the lesser light to
govern the night; He made the stars also.” (Genesis 1:16)

And the Light from the Son was there in the beginning. “In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word
was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into
being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that

50
has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of
men. The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not
comprehend it.” (John 1:1-5) For the world and all men remained in
the darkness. But the Light came to earth to give light to all men. For
as the Son said, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will
not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” (John 8:12)
And the Light would dwell in the world amongst men. “While I am
in the world, I am the Light of the world.” (John 9:5) (Addendum 2:
Christ is Light)

And when the light shines upon us, our eyes and our minds must be
open. For our eyes must be opened and our minds must receive
knowledge, that our minds may perceive the light. And by the fruit
of knowledge, man’s eyes were opened, and his mind would receive
knowledge, and his mind could perceive the light. For as Adam and
Eve were told “God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes
will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.
When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was
a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise,
she took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with
her, and he ate.” (Genesis 3:5-6) And with the knowledge of good
and evil, man’s mind could perceive in the light. “Then the eyes of
both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and
they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loin coverings.”
(Genesis 3:7) And the forefathers saw the Light, and they could
perceive what would come. “The LORD said to Abram, after Lot had
separated from him, ‘Now lift up your eyes and look from the place
where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward;
for all the land which you see, I will give it to you and to your
descendants forever.” (Genesis 13:14-15) And their eyes saw the

51
glory of God in the light. “And to the eyes of the sons of Israel the
appearance of the glory of the LORD was like a consuming fire on the
mountain top.” (Exodus 24:17) And by seeing God’s power and light,
they were given the knowledge of God, and were given the vision to
fear God. “You shall fear the LORD your God; you shall serve Him
and cling to Him, and you shall swear by His name. He is your praise
and He is your God, who has done these great and awesome things for
you which your eyes have seen.” (Deuteronomy 10:20-21)

But for the eye to remain open, the eyes must remain clear. For even
with great age the eye can remain clear. For “although Moses was
one hundred and twenty years old when he died, his eye was not dim,
nor his vigor abated.” (Deuteronomy 34:7-8) And as the Light would
teach all men, “the eye is the lamp of the body; so then if your eye is
clear, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad,
your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light that is in
you is darkness, how great is the darkness!” (Matthew 6:22-23) And
the Light warned all men to open their eyes. “Why do you look at the
speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in
your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the
speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye? You
hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see
clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.” (Matthew 7:3-5)
And the Light warned man to open their minds. “If your eye causes
you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it from you. It is better for you
to enter life with one eye, than to have two eyes and be cast into the
fiery hell.” (Matthew 18:9)

But when the eye becomes closed, the vision and mind become dim.
And when the eyes become dim, the light can no longer be seen. For
when Isaac’s eyes became dim, Jacob would steal Esau’s inheritance.

52
“Now it came about, when Isaac was old and his eyes were too dim to
see, that he called his older son Esau and said to him, ‘My
son.’…Then Jacob came to his father and said, ‘My father.’ And he
said, ‘Here I am. Who are you, my son?’ Jacob said to his father, ‘I
am Esau your firstborn; I have done as you told me. Get up, please, sit
and eat of my game, that you may bless me.’” (Genesis 27:1, 18-19)
And the prophets had warned that man’s eyes would remain dim.
“Go, and tell this people: ‘Keep on listening, but do not perceive;
keep on looking, but do not understand. Render the hearts of this
people insensitive, their ears dull, and their eyes dim, otherwise they
might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their
hearts, and return and be healed.” (Isaiah 6:9-10) And through the
Son and Light, this prophecy would be fulfilled. “But though He had
performed so many signs before them, yet they were not believing in
Him. This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet which he
spoke: ‘Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm
of the Lord been revealed?’ For this reason they could not believe, for
Isaiah said again, ‘He has blinded their eyes and He hardened their
heart, so that they would not see with their eyes and perceive with
their heart, and be converted and I heal them.’ These things Isaiah said
because he saw His glory, and he spoke of Him.” (John 12:37-41)

But woe to those whose eyes are closed, whose understanding is

darkness, and whose vision is blind. “Woe to those who call evil
good, and good evil; who substitute darkness for light and light for
darkness; who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Woe to
those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight!”
(Isaiah 5:20-21) “‘Now hear this, O foolish and senseless people, who
have eyes but do not see; who have ears but do not hear. Do you not
fear Me?’ declares the LORD. ‘Do you not tremble in My presence?’”

53
(Jeremiah 5:21-22) “‘So as I live,’ declares the Lord GOD, ‘surely,
because you have defiled My sanctuary with all your detestable idols
and with all your abominations, therefore I will also withdraw, and
My eye will have no pity and I will not spare. One third of you will
die by plague or be consumed by famine among you, one third will
fall by the sword around you, and one third I will scatter to every
wind, and I will unsheathe a sword behind them.’” (Ezekiel 5:11-12)
“And anyone who is found will be thrust through, and anyone who is
captured will fall by the sword. Their little ones also will be dashed to
pieces before their eyes; their houses will be plundered and their
wives ravished.” (Isaiah 13:15-16) And “their flesh will rot while
they stand on their feet, and their eyes will rot in their sockets, and
their tongue will rot in their mouth.” (Zechariah 14:12)

But after all sins have been paid through the fire, God’s eyes shall
look favorably on the people. “Take courage, fear not. Behold, your
God will come with vengeance; the recompense of God will come,
but He will save you. Then the eyes of the blind will be opened and
the ears of the deaf will be unstopped.”(Isaiah 35:4-5) And “in that
day man will have regard for his Maker and his eyes will look to the
Holy One of Israel.” (Isaiah 17:7) And on that day God shall dwell
with all men. “And they shall be His people, and God Himself will be
among them, and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and
there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any
mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.”
(Revelation 21:3-4)

To you it has been given to know the
mystery of the kingdom of God; but to
those who are outside, all things come in
parables, so that “Seeing they may see
and not perceive, and hearing they may
hear and not understand; lest they should
turn, and their sins be forgiven them.”

Ears That Do Not Hear
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 21, 2009

The ear is a receptive organ which receives a sound wave from the air
and hears it as sound. And the ear is the means by which we receive
His Word and hear it as Truth. For as the Word said to the people,
“He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” (Mark 4:9)

Sound is a vibration which is transmitted through an instrument. And

the Father transmitted His sound through a trumpet. “Now all the
people witnessed the thunderings, the lightning flashes, the sound of
the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it,
they trembled and stood afar off. Then they said to Moses, ‘You
speak with us, and we will hear; but let not God speak with us, lest
we die.’” (Exodus 20:18-19) And the people transmitted His sound
through a trumpet. “So the people shouted when the priests blew the
trumpets. And it happened when the people heard the sound of the
trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell
down flat.” (Joshua 6:20) And the arc was heralded with the sound of
a trumpet. “So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of
the LORD with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.” (2
Samuel 6:15) And the trumpet shall sound to warn of His coming.
“He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they
will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of
heaven to the other.” (Matthew 24:31)

56
And when a sound is transmitted, it is received by the ear. And God
ordered His people to hear with their ears. “If you diligently heed the
voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear
to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the
diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the
LORD who heals you.” (Exodus 15:26) And God ordered that they
hear His instructions. For “He also opens their ear to instruction, and
commands that they turn from iniquity.” (Job 36:10) And the earth
was forewarned to hear His rebukes. “Hear. O heavens, and give ear,
O earth! For the LORD has spoken: ‘I have nourished and brought up
children, and they have rebelled against Me.’” (Isaiah 1:2) And God
forewarned the earth’s rulers to hear His loud anger. “Hear the word
of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; give ear to the law of our God, you
people of Gomorrah” (Isaiah 1:10)

And God forewarned the people to listen to His prophets. “And the
LORD has sent to you all His servants the prophets, rising early and
sending them, but you have not listened nor inclined your ear to
hear.” (Jeremiah 25:4) And the Son who is the Word would forewarn
the people, “most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now
is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those
who hear will live. For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has
granted the Son to have life in Himself, and has given Him authority
to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. Do not
marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the
graves will hear His voice and come forth--those who have done
good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the
resurrection of condemnation. I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear,
I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own
will but the will of the Father who sent Me.” (John 5:25-30)

57
Thus the ear hears the sound, which is transmitted to the brain, so that
the mind can understand. And the Son brought us the Word, so that
our ear could hear it, and our minds could understand it. For as the
Son said, the seed would sow the Word, but many would not
understand it. “When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and
does not understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away
what was sown in his heart. This is he who received seed by the
wayside. But he who received the seed on stony places, this is he
who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy; yet he has
no root in himself, but endures only for a while. For when tribulation
or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he stumbles.
Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the
word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke
the word, and he becomes unfruitful. But he who received seed on
the good ground is he who hears the word and understands it, who
indeed bears fruit and produces: some a hundredfold, some sixty,
some thirty.” (Matthew 13:19-23)

But generation after generation, man turns a deaf ear and fails to
understand. “Yet they did not obey or incline their ear, but followed
the counsels and the dictates of their evil hearts, and went backward
and not forward. Since the day that your fathers came out of the land
of Egypt until this day, I have even sent to you all My servants the
prophets, daily rising up early and sending them. Yet they did not
obey Me or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck. They did worse
than their fathers.” (Jeremiah 7:24-26) And though their ears can
hear, they do not understand.“ And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is
fulfilled, which says: ‘Hearing you will hear and shall not
understand, and seeing you will see and not perceive; for the hearts of
this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, and their

58
eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear
with their ears, lest they should understand with their hearts and
turn, so that I should heal them.’” (Matthew 13:14-15)

And now the day shall come, when the Lord shall judge all men. For
though He has called them, they have not heard. Thus “I will pluck
your wooden images from your midst; ‘Thus I will destroy your
cities. And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury on the nations
that have not heard.’” (Micah 5:14-15) And the sound of great cries
shall be heard from the city. “Then they will cry to the LORD, but He
will not hear them; He will even hide His face from them at that time,
because they have been evil in their deeds.” (Micah 3:4) And they
will cry to their gods, but their gods will not listen. “Go and cry out
to the gods which you have chosen; let them deliver you in your time
of distress.” (Judges 10:14) And they will cry to our Lord, but He
will not listen. “Take away from Me the noise of your songs, for I will
not hear the melody of your stringed instruments. But let justice run
down like water, and righteousness like a mighty stream.” (Amos
5:23-24) And when the sound of His righteousness comes, the earth
will no longer be heard. “Thus with violence the great city Babylon
shall be thrown down, and shall not be found anymore. The sound of
harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters shall not be heard in you
anymore. No craftsman of any craft shall be found in you anymore,
and the sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you anymore.”
(Revelation 18:21-22)

If anyone has an ear,

let him hear.
Revelation 13:9

How Little Man Nose
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 3, 2009

The nose is an organ centered on the human face, which gives us the
ability to breathe and smell. And it is through man’s nostrils that God
first gave us breath. For it was through his nostrils, that the first man
received the breath of life. “Then the LORD God formed man of dust
from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and
man became a living being.” (Genesis 2:7) For it is through the
nostrils that God can give life. But it is also through the nostrils that
God removes life. For it was through the nostrils, that God destroyed
all flesh in the flood. “All flesh that moved on the earth perished,
birds and cattle and beasts and every swarming thing that swarms
upon the earth, and all mankind; of all that was on the dry land, all in
whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, died.” (Genesis
7:21-22) And the forefathers would speak of its life giving breath.
“For as long as life is in me, and the breath of God is in my nostrils,
My lips certainly will not speak unjustly, nor will my tongue mutter
deceit.” (Job 27:3-4)

But the breath of destruction comes from God’s nostrils. For it was
through His nostrils that Egypt would perish. “At the blast of Your
nostrils the waters were piled up, the flowing waters stood up like a
heap; the deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.” (Exodus 15:8)
For due to man’s transgressions, smoke has billowed from God’s
nostrils in anger. “The earth shook and quaked, the foundations of
heaven were trembling and were shaken, because He was angry.

60
Smoke went up out of His nostrils, fire from His mouth devoured;
coals were kindled by it.” (2 Samuel 22:8-9) For God has dried up
the seas and laid the earth bare with the blast of His nostrils. “The
channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were laid
bare by the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of His
nostrils.” (2 Samuel 22:16) And due to man’s iniquities, God shall
destroy mankind with fire from His nostrils. “These are smoke in My
nostrils, a fire that burns all the day. Behold, it is written before Me,
I will not keep silent, but I will repay; I will even repay into their
bosom, both their own iniquities and the iniquities of their fathers
together,’ says the LORD.” (Isaiah 65:5-7)

And the nose contains olfactory receptors, which give us the ability to
smell. And the sacrifice was burned at the altar, to bring a soothing
aroma to God. For the sacrifice was meant to sooth the Lord’s anger,
for man deceived God from the beginning. For Jacob used Esau’s
smell to deceive him from receiving his inheritance. “Isaac said to
Jacob, ‘Are you really my son Esau?’ And Jacob said, ‘I am.’ So he
said, ‘Bring it to me, and I will eat of my son's game, that I may bless
you.’ And he brought it to him, and he ate; he also brought him wine
and he drank. Then his father Isaac said to him, ‘Please come close
and kiss me, my son.’ So he came close and kissed him; and when he
smelled the smell of his garments, he blessed him and said, ‘See, the
smell of my son is like the smell of a field which the LORD has
blessed; now may God give you of the dew of heaven, and of the
fatness of the earth, and an abundance of grain and new wine.”
(Genesis 27:24-28)

And His people were commanded to burn the offering, so that it sent a
soothing aroma to God. “You shall take them from their hands, and
offer them up in smoke on the altar on the burnt offering for a

61
soothing aroma before the LORD; it is an offering by fire to the
LORD.” (Exodus 29:25) And the Son sacrificed His body as an
offering, as a fragrant aroma to God. For He “gave Himself up for us,
an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.” (Ephesians
5:1-2) And through the sacrifice of His servants, we are a pleasing
aroma to God. “For we are a fragrance of Christ to God among those
who are being saved and among those who are perishing; to the one
an aroma from death to death, to the other an aroma from life to life.”
(2 Corinthians 2:15-16)

But man has given his burnt offerings to idols. Therefore, “you will
know that I am the LORD, when their slain are among their idols
around their altars, on every high hill, on all the tops of the
mountains, under every green tree and under every leafy oak—the
places where they offered soothing aroma to all their idols.” (Ezekiel
6:13) For they will not offer a soothing aroma, but a stench that
decays with their flesh. “Thus the LORD'S indignation is against all the
nations, and His wrath against all their armies; He has utterly
destroyed them, He has given them over to slaughter. So their slain
will be thrown out, and their corpses will give off their stench, and
the mountains will be drenched with their blood.” (Isaiah 34:2-3)

And their nose shall be bridled by God. “Because of your raging

against Me, and because your arrogance has come up to My ears,
therefore I will put My hook in your nose, and My bridle in your lips,
and I will turn you back by the way which you came.” (2 Kings
19:28) And through the Lord’s anger and wrath, He will make their
nose bleed in the winepress. “If you have been foolish in exalting
yourself or if you have plotted evil, put your hand on your mouth. For
the churning of milk produces butter, and pressing the nose brings

62
forth blood; so the churning of anger produces strife.” (Proverbs
30:32-33) And at the last judgment, their nose shall be cut off of their
face, and their nostrils shall burn in the fire. “I will set My jealousy
against you, that they may deal with you in wrath. They will remove
your nose and your ears; and your survivors will fall by the sword.
They will take your sons and your daughters; and your survivors will
be consumed by the fire.” (Ezekiel 23:25-26)

The Terror of the Tongue
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed February 28, 2009

Indeed, we put bits in horses' mouths that they may

obey us, and we turn their whole body. Look also at
ships: although they are so large and are driven by
fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder
wherever the pilot desires. Even so the tongue is a
little member and boasts great things. See how great
a forest a little fire kindles!
James 3:3-5

The tongue is a powerful muscle which is responsible for speaking

and eating. And “death and life are in the power of the tongue, and
those who love it will eat its fruit.” (Proverbs 18:2)

The tongue tends towards evil and deceit, but a wise man keeps it
from speaking. For the forefathers held it from boasting. “Teach me,
and I will hold my tongue; cause me to understand wherein I have
erred.” (Job 6:24) And the kings would guard it from sinning. “I will

64
guard my ways, lest I sin with my tongue; I will restrain my mouth
with a muzzle, while the wicked are before me.” (Psalms 39:1) And
the wise would guard it from damning their souls, for “whoever
guards his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from troubles.” (Proverbs
21:23) And the people would keep it from speaking great evils. For
“he who would love life and see good days, let him refrain his tongue
from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from
evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the
LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers; but
the face of the LORD is against those who do evil.” (1 Peter 3:10-12)

The tongue is a great tool of Satan, for it divides man against God.
For the serpent has a tongue full of poison and asp. For they “sharpen
their tongues like a serpent; the poison of asps is under their
lips.”(Psalms 140:3) For the serpent’s tongue was divided in the
Garden, and man’s tongue shall be divided in the fire. “Destroy, O
Lord, and divide their tongues, for I have seen violence and strife in
the city.” (Psalms 55:9) And the lies of the tongue shall be buried
with the earth. “Their throat is an open tomb; with their tongues they
have practiced deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips; whose
mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.” (Romans 3:13-14)

For the tongue is full of lies and deceit. For “you give your mouth to
evil, and your tongue frames deceit. You sit and speak against your
brother; you slander your own mother's son.” (Psalms 50:19-20) And
a tongue full of lies brings great destruction. For “a lying tongue hates
those who are crushed by it, and a flattering mouth works ruin.”
(Proverbs 26:28) And those who seek gain through its lies, may
hasten to seek their own death. For “getting treasures by a lying
tongue is the fleeting fantasy of those who seek death.” (Proverbs
21:6) But mankind continues to speak lies. “Everyone will deceive

65
his neighbor, and will not speak the truth; they have taught their
tongue to speak lies; they weary themselves to commit iniquity. Your
dwelling place is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to
know Me,’ says the LORD.” (Jeremiah 9:5-6)

But the tongue can speak praises and righteousness. “Let them shout
for joy and be glad, who favor my righteous cause; and let them say
continually, ‘Let the LORD be magnified, who has pleasure in the
prosperity of His servant. And my tongue shall speak of Your
righteousness and of Your praise all the day long.’” (Psalms 35:27-
28) And the tongue can deliver God’s words. “My lips shall utter
praise, for You teach me Your statutes. My tongue shall speak of
Your word, for all Your commandments are righteousness.” (Psalms
119:171-172) And the tongue can speak wisdom and truth. For “the
tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly, but the mouth of fools
pours forth foolishness.” (Proverbs 15:2)

But the tongue of a fool will boast against God. For “the tongue is a
little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little
fire kindles!” (James 3:5) For “they set their mouth against the
heavens, and their tongue walks through the earth.” (Psalms 73:9)
And the fool speaks against God, thus the Lord will speak against
man. “May the LORD cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that
speaks proud things, who have said, ‘With our tongue we will prevail;
our lips are our own; who is lord over us?’” (Psalms 12:3-4) And
God’s tongue shall burn like a fire. “Behold, the name of the LORD
comes from afar, burning with His anger, and His burden is heavy;
His lips are full of indignation, and His tongue like a devouring fire.”
(Isaiah 30:27) And on that day, man’s tongues shall dissolve in their
mouths. “And this shall be the plague with which the LORD will
strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem: their flesh shall

66
dissolve while they stand on their feet, their eyes shall dissolve in
their sockets, and their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths.”
(Zechariah 14:12)

But the remnant of His people shall speak tongues of truth. “I will
leave in your midst a meek and humble people, and they shall trust in
the name of the LORD. The remnant of Israel shall do no
unrighteousness and speak no lies, nor shall a deceitful tongue be
found in their mouth; for they shall feed their flocks and lie down, and
no one shall make them afraid.” (Zephaniah 3:12-13) And His
remnant shall sing to the Most High, “You are worthy to take the
scroll, and to open its seals; for You were slain, and have redeemed us
to God by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and
nation, and have made us kings and priests to our God; and we shall
reign on the earth.” (Revelation 5:9-10)

And the seventh angel “having the everlasting gospel to preach to

those who dwell on the earth--to every nation, tribe, tongue, and
people-- saying with a loud voice, ‘Fear God and give glory to Him,
for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made
heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.’” (Revelation 14:6-7)
“For behold, the LORD will come with fire and with His chariots, like
a whirlwind, to render His anger with fury, and His rebuke with
flames of fire. For by fire and by His sword the LORD will judge all
flesh; and the slain of the LORD shall be many. ‘Those who sanctify
themselves and purify themselves, to go to the gardens after an idol in
the midst, eating swine's flesh and the abomination and the mouse,
shall be consumed together,’ says the LORD. ‘For I know their works
and their thoughts. It shall be that I will gather all nations and
tongues; and they shall come and see My glory.” (Isaiah 66:15-18)

67
 Look to Me, and be saved,
All you ends of the earth!
For I am God, and there is no other.
I have sworn by Myself;
The word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness,
And shall not return,
That to Me every knee shall bow,
Every tongue shall take an oath.
He shall say, ‘Surely in the LORD I have righteousness and
strength.
To Him men shall come,
And all shall be ashamed
Who are incensed against Him.
In the LORD all the descendants of Israel
Shall be justified, and shall glory.’

Isaiah 45:22-25

From the Mouth Comes the Word of God
To Andrew the Prophet
March 1, 2009

O LORD, our Lord,

How majestic is Your name in all the earth,
Who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens!
From the mouth of infants and nursing babes
You have established strength
Because of Your adversaries,
To make the enemy and the revengeful cease.

Psalms 8:1-2

The mouth is an orifice through which food is swallowed and words

are produced. And the mouth is also called the oral cavity, and is
derived from the Latin word oris which means “open”. And the earth
opened its mouth to receive man’s blood from the beginning. For
from the first bloodshed of man, the ground would open its mouth.
“Then the LORD said to Cain, ‘Where is Abel your brother?’ And he
said, ‘I do not know. Am I my brother's keeper?’ He said, ‘What have
you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to Me from the
ground. Now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its

69
mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.” (Genesis 4:9-
11) And those who spoke against God, would be swallowed by the
earth down to Sheol. For as Moses “finished speaking all these words,
the ground that was under them split open; and the earth opened its
mouth and swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men
who belonged to Korah with their possessions. So they and all that
belonged to them went down alive to Sheol; and the earth closed over
them, and they perished from the midst of the assembly. All Israel
who were around them fled at their outcry, for they said, ‘The earth
may swallow us up!’ Fire also came forth from the LORD and
consumed the two hundred and fifty men who were offering the
incense.” (Numbers 16:31-35) And His enemies were swallowed by
the earth down to Sheol. “Their judges are thrown down by the sides
of the rock, and they hear my words, for they are pleasant. As when
one plows and breaks open the earth, our bones have been scattered at
the mouth of Sheol.” (Psalms 141:6-7) Yet man has continued to sin
against God, thus the mouth of the earth has opened without measure.
“Therefore Sheol has enlarged its throat and opened its mouth
without measure; and Jerusalem’s splendor, her multitude, her din of
revelry and the jubilant within her, descend into it. So the common
man will be humbled and the man of importance abased, the eyes of
the proud also will be abased.” (Isaiah 5:14-15)

And the mouth of man consumes the bread in order to live. And the
children of God consume the Word, in order to live. For “He
humbled you and let you be hungry, and fed you with manna which
you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that He might make you
understand that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by
everything that proceeds out of the mouth of the LORD.”
(Deuteronomy 8:3-4) And the Son is the Word that brought us the

70
Bread that we could live. For as the Son would teach us, ‘It is
written, ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that
proceeds out of the mouth of God.’” (Matthew 4:4)

And though our mouths consume the bread, so can our mouths
produce our voice. Thus the Word was given for the prophets to
profess with their voice. For His servant professed, “Who has made
man's mouth? Or who makes him mute or deaf, or seeing or blind? Is
it not I, the LORD? Now then go, and I, even I, will be with your
mouth, and teach you what you are to say.” (Exodus 4:11-13) And
His servant would profess of the Bread that would come. “The LORD
your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you,
from your countrymen, you shall listen to him. This is according to
all that you asked of the LORD your God in Horeb on the day of the
assembly, saying, ‘Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my
God, let me not see this great fire anymore, or I will die.’ The LORD
said to me, ‘They have spoken well. I will raise up a prophet from
among their countrymen like you, and I will put My words in his
mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him.”
(Deuteronomy 18:15-18) And the mouths of the prophets profess to
the end. “Thus says the LORD of hosts, ‘Let your hands be strong,
you who are listening in these days to these words from the mouth of
the prophets, those who spoke in the day that the foundation of the
house of the LORD of hosts was laid, to the end that the temple might
be built.” (Zechariah 8:9)

And the mouths of the prophets had professed in the Christ. For “the
things which God announced beforehand by the mouth of all the
prophets, that His Christ would suffer, He has thus fulfilled.
Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in
order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the

71
Lord; and that He may send Jesus, the Christ appointed for
you, whom heaven must receive until the period of restoration of all
things about which God spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets
from ancient time. Moses said, ‘The Lord God will raise up for you a
prophet like me from your brethren; to Him you shall give heed to
everything He says to you. And it will be that every soul that does not
heed that prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.”
(Acts 3:18-23) And the Son would profess, that He was the Word and
the Bread which gives life. For the Son would profess that He was
the Bread. “I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not
hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst.” (John 6:35)
And His servants would profess that He was the Word. For “the Word
became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of
the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14)

And what enters our mouth neither justifies nor condemns us. For as
the Word taught us, “do you not understand that everything that goes
into the mouth passes into the stomach, and is eliminated?” But
what proceeds from our mouth can bless or defile us. “But the things
that proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and those defile
the man. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries,
fornications, thefts, false witness, slanders. These are the things
which defile the man; but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile
the man.” (Matthew 15:17-21) For the mouth produces sounds
which are uttered from our hearts. And from the days of Moses, the
people were to guard what came from their mouths. “Now concerning
everything which I have said to you, be on your guard; and do not
mention the name of other gods, nor let them be heard from your
mouth.” (Exodus 23:13) But man has not guarded what comes from
his mouth, but has turned his voice against God. “They have set their

72
mouth against the heavens, and their tongue parades through the
earth.” (Psalms 73:9) And “they deceived Him with their mouth and
lied to Him with their tongue. For their heart was not steadfast toward
Him, nor were they faithful in His covenant.” (Psalms 78:36-37)
Thus they will be judged for the decrement that their mouths have
produced. For “it is not what enters into the mouth that defiles the
man, but what proceeds out of the mouth, this defiles the man.”
(Matthew 15:11)

But those who have trust in the name of the Lord, what comes from
their mouths shall bring them great blessings. For “He put a new
song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; many will see and
fear and will trust in the LORD.” (Psalms 40:3) For when we confess
the Word with our mouths, our hearts become righteous and our souls
become saved. For “the word is near you in your mouth and your
heart -- that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, that if you
confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that
God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a
person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he
confesses, resulting in salvation.” (Romans 10:8-10)

And when the Son of Man returns, His mouth shall yield a rod and
sword, with which to rule and slay the earth. “But with righteousness
He will judge the poor, and decide with fairness for the afflicted of
the earth; and He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, and
with the breath of His lips He will slay the wicked.” (Isaiah 11:4) For
“from His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike
down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He
treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. And
on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, ‘KING OF
KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.’” (Revelation 19:15-16) And

73
every mouth shall confess He is God. “Turn to Me and be saved, all
the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other. I have
sworn by Myself, the word has gone forth from My mouth in
righteousness and will not turn back, that to Me every knee will bow,
every tongue will swear allegiance. They will say of Me, ‘Only in the
LORD are righteousness and strength. Men will come to Him, and all
who were angry at Him will be put to shame.” (Isaiah 45:22-24)

The Father’s Face
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 4, 2009

The face is the anterior facet of the head which displays human
emotion. And the word face is derived from the Latin word facia
which means “image and form”. For man was made in the image of
God. For “God created man in His own image, in the image of God
He created him; male and female He created them.” (Genesis 1:27)
But the God’s face was hidden from man in the beginning. “In the
beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was
formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and
the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.”
(Genesis 1:1-2)

And though man’s face would enter the Garden, he would fail at the
beginning, thus man has been subject to the toils of this earth. “By
the sweat of your face You will eat bread, till you return to the
ground, because from it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust
you shall return.” (Genesis 3:19) Thus man’s face has been subject to
murder and death. “Cain said to the LORD, ‘My punishment is too
great to bear! Behold, You have driven me this day from the face of
the ground; and from Your face I will be hidden, and I will be a
vagrant and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill
me.’” (Genesis 4:13-15) And because of man’s great wickedness,
God removed man from the face of the earth. “Then the LORD saw
that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every
intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. The LORD

75
was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in
His heart. The LORD said, ‘I will blot out man whom I have created
from the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and
to birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them.” (Genesis
6:5-7) “Thus He blotted out every living thing that was upon the face
of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the
sky, and they were blotted out from the earth”. (Genesis 7:23)

But God in his mercy would allow man to face Him again. But when
man in idolatry built the tower in Babel, “the LORD scattered them
abroad from there over the face of the whole earth; and they stopped
building the city. Therefore its name was called Babel, because there
the LORD confused the language of the whole earth; and from there
the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of the whole earth.”
(Genesis 11:8-9) Yet God chose His people from the face of
mankind, for they were distinguished from the face of the earth. For
as Moses asked “how then can it be known that I have found favor in
Your sight, I and Your people? Is it not by Your going with us, so that
we, I and Your people, may be distinguished from all the other people
who are upon the face of the earth?” (Exodus 33:16) And God made
this promise to His people. “If you return to the LORD, your brothers
and your sons will find compassion before those who led them captive
and will return to this land. For the LORD your God is gracious and
compassionate, and will not turn His face away from you if you return
to Him.” (2 Chronicles 30:9)

And God showed His face to His people. And in the presence of
God’s righteous face, the forefather’s knew to fall on their face. For
“Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying ‘As for Me,
behold, My covenant is with you, and you will be the father of a
multitude of nations.’” (Genesis 17:3-4) And Moses hid his face from

76
the Father. “He said also, ‘I am the God of your father, the God of
Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Then Moses hid
his face, for he was afraid to look at God.” (Exodus 3:6) And when
His disciples heard the Father, they hid their face in the ground. “Six
days later Jesus took with Him Peter and James and John his brother,
and led them up on a high mountain by themselves. And He was
transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His
garments became as white as light…And while he was still speaking,
a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the
cloud said, ‘This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased;
listen to Him!’ When the disciples heard this, they fell face down to
the ground and were terrified. And Jesus came to them and touched
them and said, ‘Get up, and do not be afraid.’ And lifting up their
eyes, they saw no one except Jesus Himself alone.” (Matthew 17:1-8)
Thus the face of the Son came down to earth, so that we could see the
face of the Father. “For God, who said, ‘Light shall shine out of
darkness,’ is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of
the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.” (2
Corinthians 4:6) And on that day, all of the earth shall see the Lord’s
face. And “there will no longer be any curse; and the throne of God
and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve
Him; they will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads.”
(Revelation 22:3-4)

Yet man has turned his face from the Lord. Thus God turns away His
face from man. “If you do not obey Me and do not carry out all these
commandments, if instead, you reject My statutes, and if your soul
abhors My ordinances so as not to carry out all My commandments,
and so break My covenant, I, in turn, will do this to you: I will
appoint over you a sudden terror, consumption and fever that will

77
waste away the eyes and cause the soul to pine away; also, you will
sow your seed uselessly, for your enemies will eat it up. I will set My
face against you so that you will be struck down before your enemies;
and those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee when no
one is pursuing you.” (Leviticus 26:14-17) And on that day, the Lord
shall hide His face, when man is burned up in this place. “Then My
anger will be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them
and hide My face from them, and they will be consumed, and many
evils and troubles will come upon them; so that they will say in that
day, ‘Is it not because our God is not among us that these evils have
come upon us? But I will surely hide My face in that day because of
all the evil which they will do, for they will turn to other gods.”
(Deuteronomy 31:17-18) And God shall turn His face against man,
when their memory is cut off from this land. For “the face of the
LORD is against evildoers, to cut off the memory of them from the
earth.” (Psalms 34:16) For they “say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’
and to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’ For they have turned their back
to Me, and not their face; but in the time of their trouble they will say,
‘Arise and save us.’ But where are your gods which you made for
yourself? Let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your
trouble.” (Jeremiah 2:27-28)

Therefore “like an east wind I will scatter them before the enemy; I
will show them My back and not My face in the day of their
calamity.” (Jeremiah 18:17) “As the wood of the vine among the trees
of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so have I given up
the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I set My face against them. Though
they have come out of the fire, yet the fire will consume them. Then
you will know that I am the LORD, when I set My face against them.
Thus I will make the land desolate, because they have acted

78
unfaithfully,’ declares the Lord GOD.” (Ezekiel 15:6-8) And “I will
completely remove all things from the face of the earth,’ declares the
LORD. ‘I will remove man and beast; I will remove the birds of the sky
and the fish of the sea, and the ruins along with the wicked; and I will
cut off man from the face of the earth.’ declares the LORD.”
(Zephaniah 1:2-3)

Man’s Neck Shall Be Broken
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 7, 2009

A man who hardens his neck after much reproof

Will suddenly be broken beyond remedy.

Proverbs 29:1

The neck is the section which connects the head to the body. And His
people connect His Word to the body of mankind. And the yoke is a
bar which lies across two necks, and distributes the work between two
oxen. And the yoke of this world lies across two necks, for the work
was divided between Esau and Jacob. But the yoke of their work was
unbalanced from the beginning. For Rebekah deceived her husband,
by covering Jacob’s neck with a goat. “Then Rebekah took the best
garments of Esau her elder son, which were with her in the house, and
put them on Jacob her younger son. And she put the skins of the
young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.”
(Genesis 27:15-16) And Isaac conceded to Esau, that the yoke of his
children would be heavy. “Isaac his father answered and said to Esau,
‘Behold, away from the fertility of the earth shall be your dwelling,
and away from the dew of heaven from above. By your sword you
shall live, and your brother you shall serve; but it shall come about

80
when you become restless, that you will break his yoke from your
neck.’” (Genesis 27:39-40) And the yoke of Esau’s children soon
shall be broken. For “the LORD of hosts has sworn saying, ‘Surely,
just as I have intended so it has happened, and just as I have planned
so it will stand, to break Assyria in My land, and I will trample him
on My mountains. Then his yoke will be removed from them and his
burden removed from their shoulder. This is the plan devised against
the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out against all
the nations. For the LORD of hosts has planned, and who can frustrate
it? And as for His stretched-out hand, who can turn it back?’”(Isaiah
14:24-27)

And by the transgressions of His people, the yoke would be placed on

their neck. “Because you did not serve the LORD your God with joy
and a glad heart, for the abundance of all things; therefore you shall
serve your enemies whom the LORD will send against you, in hunger,
in thirst, in nakedness, and in the lack of all things; and He will put an
iron yoke on your neck until He has destroyed you.” (Deuteronomy
28:47-48) And as was foretold, the Son would break the yoke of His
people. “You shall break the yoke of their burden and the staff on
their shoulders, the rod of their oppressor, as at the battle of
Midian. For every boot of the booted warrior in the battle tumult, and
cloak rolled in blood, will be for burning, fuel for the fire. For a child
will be born to us, a son will be given to us; and the government will
rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful
Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:4-
6) And as was foretold, the yoke of His people soon shall be broken.
“It shall come about on that day,’ declares the LORD of hosts, ‘that I
will break his yoke from off their neck and will tear off their bonds;
and strangers will no longer make them their slaves. But they shall

81
serve the LORD their God and David their king, whom I will raise up
for them.’” (Jeremiah 30:8-9)

And the brain transmits its message, from the neck down through the
spinal cord. But when the neck is broken, the spinal cord is severed
and the body becomes paralyzed. And spine is derived from the Latin
word spina which means “sharp”. And paralysis is derived from the
Greek word paralyein which means “feeble” and “weak”. And on
that day, His sharp sword shall break His enemy’s neck. Thus He
shall make every hand feeble and every knee weak. “Behold, I am
against you; and I will draw My sword out of its sheath and cut off
from you the righteous and the wicked. Because I will cut off from
you the righteous and the wicked, therefore My sword will go forth
from its sheath against all flesh from south to north. Thus all flesh will
know that I, the LORD, have drawn My sword out of its sheath. It will
not return to its sheath again. As for you, son of man, groan with
breaking heart and bitter grief, groan in their sight. And when they
say to you, ‘Why do you groan?’ you shall say, ‘Because of the news
that is coming; and every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble,
every spirit will faint and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it
comes and it will happen,’ declares the Lord GOD.” (Ezekiel 21:3-7)

And the Lord would show that His enemy’s neck would be broken.
For the first offspring of a donkey would have its neck broken, as a
sign of their deliverance from Egypt. “Every first offspring of a
donkey you shall redeem with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it,
then you shall break its neck; and every firstborn of man among your
sons you shall redeem. And it shall be when your son asks you in
time to come, saying, ‘What is this?’ then you shall say to him, ‘With
a powerful hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, from the house of
slavery. It came about, when Pharaoh was stubborn about letting us

82
go, that the LORD killed every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the
firstborn of man and the firstborn of beast. Therefore, I sacrifice to the
LORD the males, the first offspring of every womb, but every firstborn
of my sons I redeem. So it shall serve as a sign on your hand and as
phylacteries on your forehead, for with a powerful hand the LORD
brought us out of Egypt.” (Exodus 13:11-16)

And God has foretold that their necks would be broken. For on that
day, His enemies shall be taken outside the city and their necks shall
be broken. For as it says, “so the angel swung his sickle to the earth
and gathered the clusters from the vine of the earth, and threw them
into the great wine press of the wrath of God. And the wine press was
trodden outside the city, and blood came out from the wine press, up
to the horses' bridles, for a distance of two hundred miles.”
(Revelation 14:19-20)

For a neck that is stiff can be easily broken. For “a man who hardens
his neck after much reproof will suddenly be broken beyond remedy.”
(Proverbs 29:1) For Moses warned the people, “circumcise your heart,
and stiffen your neck no longer.” (Deuteronomy 10:16) “However,
they did not listen, but stiffened their neck like their fathers, who did
not believe in the LORD their God. They rejected His statutes and His
covenant which He made with their fathers and His warnings with
which He warned them.” (2 Kings 17:14-15) And despite the Lord’s
warning, they stiffen their necks to this day. “Since the day that your
fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have sent you all
My servants the prophets, daily rising early and sending them. Yet
they did not listen to Me or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck;
they did more evil than their fathers.” (Jeremiah 7:25-26) “Thus says
the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, ‘Behold, I am about to bring on
this city and all its towns the entire calamity that I have declared

83
against it, because they have stiffened their necks so as not to heed
My words.’” (Jeremiah 19:15) “Behold, I am planning against this
family a calamity from which you cannot remove your necks; and you
will not walk haughtily, for it will be an evil time. On that day they
will take up against you a taunt and utter a bitter lamentation and say,
‘We are completely destroyed!’” (Micah 2:3-4)

The Spirit is the Breath of Life
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 10, 2009

Prophesy over these bones and say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the
word of the LORD.’ Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones, ‘Behold, I
will cause breath to enter you that you may come to life. I will put
sinews on you, make flesh grow back on you, cover you with skin and
put breath in you that you may come alive; and you will know that I
am the LORD.’ So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I
prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, a rattling; and the bones
came together, bone to its bone. And I looked, and behold, sinews
were on them, and flesh grew and skin covered them; but there was
no breath in them. Then He said to me, ‘Prophesy to the breath,
prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, ‘Thus says the Lord
GOD, ‘Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these
slain, that they come to life.’’ So I prophesied as He commanded me,
and the breath came into them, and they came to life and stood on
their feet, an exceedingly great army.
Ezekiel 37:4-10

The lungs are two organs in the chest which breathe air. And the
Spirit of the Lord gies us breath. For “the Spirit of God has made me,
and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.” (Job 33:4) And air
moved over the earth at the beginning. And the Spirit moved over the
earth from the beginning. “In the beginning God created the heavens

85
and the earth. The earth was formless and void, and darkness was
over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over
the surface of the waters.” (Genesis 1:1-2) And the breath of life
came from the breath of the Spirit. “The LORD God formed man of
dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living being.” (Genesis 2:7) For the body has two
lungs which gives the breath of life. And life has two flesh which
gives the breath of life. “So they went into the ark to Noah, by twos of
all flesh in which was the breath of life. Those that entered, male and
female of all flesh, entered as God had commanded him; and the
LORD closed it behind him.” (Genesis 7:15-16)

But the flesh of man is just a passing breath. “Man is like a mere
breath; His days are like a passing shadow.” (Psalms 144:4) And
unlike the spirit, the breath is merely breath, for as “the LORD said,
‘My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, because he also is flesh;
nevertheless his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”
(Genesis 6:3) But due to the evil in man’s spirit, God removed all the
flesh from the earth. “All flesh that moved on the earth perished, birds
and cattle and beasts and every swarming thing that swarms upon the
earth, and all mankind; of all that was on the dry land, all in whose
nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, died. Thus He blotted out
every living thing that was upon the face of the land, from man to
animals to creeping things and to birds of the sky, and they were
blotted out from the earth; and only Noah was left, together with those
that were with him in the ark.” (Genesis 7:21-23)

And due to the weakness of the flesh, the Spirit would inspire His
breath. And the spirit of the word was inspired, by the breath and the
word of the prophets. For prophecy comes from the Greek word
prophecia, which means “to know the will of God”. For prophecy

86
comes not from the breath of man, but comes from the true Word of
God. “For no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but
men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.” (2 Peter 1:21) Thus
the Spirit gave His breath to His witness Moses. “So Moses went out
and told the people the words of the LORD. Also, he gathered seventy
men of the elders of the people, and stationed them around the tent.
Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to him; and He
took of the Spirit who was upon him and placed Him upon the
seventy elders. And when the Spirit rested upon them, they
prophesied.” (Numbers 11:24-25) And the Spirit gave His breath to
His witness John and Elijah. “And he will turn many of the sons of
Israel back to the Lord their God. It is he who will go as a forerunner
before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the
fathers back to the children, and the disobedient to the attitude of the
righteous, so as to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.” (Luke
1:16-17) And the Word was inspired through the Spirit of His Son
Jesus Christ. “Behold, My Servant, whom I uphold; My chosen one
in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will
bring forth justice to the nations.” (Isaiah 42:1)

Thus the Son came in the spirit, so that all men could breathe in the
Spirit. For the Son was not conceived by man, but by the breath of
the Holy Spirit. “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when
His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came
together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.” (Matthew
1:18) And the witness prepared the way for His spirit and fire. “As
for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming
after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He
will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.” (Matthew 3:11) And
the Spirit descended as light from the heavens. “After being baptized,

87
Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens
were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and
lighting on Him, and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, ‘This is
My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased.’” (Matthew 3:16-17)
And His spirit would teach us the Word of God. For as He said “the
Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach
the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to
proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to
set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the acceptable year
of the LORD.” (Isaiah 61:1-2, Luke 4:18-19) But His spirit could not
remain on the earth, and His spirit would breathe out His last. “And
Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.”
(Matthew 27:50)

Thus the Son in the Spirit gave us His blood of sacrifice. And He
promised He would leave us the breath of the Spirit. And He said that
in order to live we must breathe in the Spirit. “Therefore I say to you,
any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven people, but blasphemy
against the Spirit shall not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word
against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever speaks
against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age
or in the age to come.” (Matthew 12:31-32) And He taught us to ask
His Father for the Spirit. “If you then, being evil, know how to give
good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly
Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?” (Luke 11:13)
“For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for He gives
the Spirit without measure.” (John 3:34) And as the Son rose in the
heavens, He would leave us the breath of the Spirit. “’Peace be with
you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you.’ And when He had
said this, He breathed on them and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy

88
Spirit.’” (John 20:21-22) And the Spirit shall pour out His Spirit on
the earth. For as it says, “it will come about after this That I will pour
out My Spirit on all mankind; and your sons and daughters will
prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see
visions. Even on the male and female servants I will pour out My
Spirit in those days.” (Joel 2:28-29/ Acts 2:17)

And it says that the breath is a spirit, and it says that the breath is a
fire. For as the witness said, “He will baptize you with the Holy
Spirit and fire. His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will
thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat
into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”
(Matthew 3:11-12) “‘Now I will arise,’ says the LORD, ‘Now I will
be exalted, now I will be lifted up. You have conceived chaff, you will
give birth to stubble; My breath will consume you like a fire. The
peoples will be burned to lime, like cut thorns which are burned in the
fire.’” (Isaiah 33:10-12) For “His breath kindles coals, and a flame
goes forth from his mouth.” (Job 41:21) And “it will come about at
that time that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and I will punish the
men who are stagnant in spirit, who say in their hearts, ‘The LORD
will not do good or evil!’” (Zephaniah 1:12) “And when they say to
you, ‘Why do you groan?’ you shall say, ‘Because of the news that is
coming; and every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble, every
spirit will faint and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it comes
and it will happen,’ declares the Lord GOD.” (Ezekiel 21:7)

It is the Spirit which inspires men

to search for the Truth.

The Rib Which Covers Man
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 12, 2009

When Adam was placed in the garden, although its bounty was
plentiful, he still was lacking one thing. For what he was lacking was
the womb of the woman which was Eve. “So the LORD God caused a
deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took one of his
ribs and closed up the flesh at that place. The LORD God fashioned
into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought
her to the man. The man said, ‘This is now bone of my bones, and
flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, because she was taken
out of Man. For this reason a man shall leave his father and his
mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one
flesh. And the man and his wife were both naked and were not
ashamed.” (Genesis 2:21-25) And rib is derived from the Germanic
word rippe which means “covering.” And when Adam and Eve
discovered the fruit, they discovered that they had no covering. “Then
the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were
naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loin
coverings.” (Genesis 3:7) And in the nakedness of their flesh, God
made them coverings of skin. “Now the man called his wife's name
Eve, because she was the mother of all the living. The LORD God
made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and clothed them.”
(Genesis 3:20-21)

The ribs are the bones which cover the chest and support the lungs in
order to breathe. And likewise, a wife covers her household, and

90
gives her family support to breathe. “She extends her hand to the
poor, and she stretches out her hands to the needy. She is not afraid of
the snow for her household, for all her household are clothed with
scarlet. She makes coverings for herself; her clothing is fine linen and
purple.” (Proverbs 31:20-22) And the lungs give the body its breath.
And in like manner, a husband gives the family its breath, for Adam
was given the breath of God. “Then the LORD God formed man of
dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life;
and man became a living being.” (Genesis 2:7) And a husband and a
wife are joined together, so that mankind may have life. “So
husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He
who loves his own wife loves himself; for no one ever hated his own
flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the
church, because we are members of His body. ‘For this reason a man
shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the
two shall become one flesh’. This mystery is great; but I am speaking
with reference to Christ and the church. Nevertheless, each individual
among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife
must see to it that she respects her husband.” (Ephesians 5:28-33)

But when the ribs are broken, the lungs no longer can breathe. Thus
the lamb would have not one of its bones broken. “This is the
ordinance of the Passover: no foreigner is to eat of it; but every man's
slave purchased with money, after you have circumcised him, then he
may eat of it. A sojourner or a hired servant shall not eat of it. It is to
be eaten in a single house; you are not to bring forth any of the flesh
outside of the house, nor are you to break any bone of it.” (Exodus
12:43-46) And the Lamb would have not one of His bones broken.
“For these things came to pass to fulfill the Scripture, ‘not a bone of

Him shall be broken’.” (John 19:35-37)

91
But unlike the flesh of a husband and wife, the body of Christ is
complete. For it was the Lamb who covered our sins. For as it is
written “blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and
whose sins are covered; blessed is the man to whom the LORD shall
not impute sin”. (Romans 4:7-8) And no longer do we strive to be
one body with man, but now we strive to be one body with Christ.

And now the Bride prepares for the wedding. For many have been
called, but few have accepted. For as the Son said, “the kingdom of
heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his
son. And he sent out his slaves to call those who had been invited to
the wedding feast, and they were unwilling to come. Again he sent out
other slaves saying, ‘Tell those who have been invited, ‘Behold, I
have prepared my dinner; my oxen and my fattened livestock are all
butchered and everything is ready; come to the wedding feast.’ But
they paid no attention and went their way, one to his own farm,
another to his business, and the rest seized his slaves and mistreated
them and killed them. But the king was enraged, and he sent his
armies and destroyed those murderers and set their city on fire. Then
he said to his slaves, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were
invited were not worthy. Go therefore to the main highways, and as
many as you find there, invite to the wedding feast.’ Those slaves
went out into the streets and gathered together all they found, both
evil and good; and the wedding hall was filled with dinner guests.”
(Matthew 22:2-10)

For wedding is derived from the English root weddian which means
“covenant”. And the best man shall prepare the way for His
covenant. “Behold, I am going to send My messenger, and he will
clear the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, will
suddenly come to His temple; and the messenger of the covenant, in

92
whom you delight, behold, He is coming,’ says the LORD of hosts.”
(Malachi 3:1) For I am a friend of the bridegroom, “you yourselves
are my witnesses that I said, ‘I am not the Christ, but I have been sent
ahead of Him.’ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend
of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because
of the bridegroom's voice. So this joy of mine has been made full.”
(John 3:28-29) For the witness is the seven, and the seven shall show
you the Bride. “Then one of the seven angels who had the seven
bowls full of the seven last plagues came and spoke with me, saying,
‘Come here, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.’ And he
carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and
showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from
God, having the glory of God.” (Revelation 21:9-11)

But when the king came in to look over the dinner

guests, he saw a man there who was not dressed in
wedding clothes, and he said to him, ‘Friend, how
did you come in here without wedding clothes? And
the man was speechless. Then the king said to the
servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, and throw him
into the outer darkness; in that place there will be
weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are
called, but few are chosen.’
Matthew 22:11-14

The Breast Gives Us Milk of His Word
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 14, 2009

The breast is the gland of a woman, which produces milk for her
infant. And even our Lord partook of the milk of the breast. “A
certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him,
‘Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed
You!’ But He said, ‘More than that, blessed are those who hear the
word of God and keep it!’” (Luke 11:27-28) For the milk is the
promise that is given to infants, and the bread is the Word which is
given to believers. And “like newborn babies, long for the pure milk
of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation, if you
have tasted the kindness of the Lord.” (1 Peter 2:2-3)

And the father of the nations gave milk to the angels. “And Abraham
ran to the herd, took a tender and good calf, gave it to a young man,
and he hastened to prepare it. So he took butter and milk and the calf
which he had prepared, and set it before them; and he stood by them
under the tree as they ate.” (Genesis18:7-8) And by this kind act, they
promised he would father the nations. “And He said, ‘I will certainly
return to you according to the time of life, and behold, Sarah your
wife shall have a son.’” (Genesis 18:10) And God promised that His
people would inherit this milk. “You shall therefore keep all My
statutes and all My judgments, and perform them, that the land where
I am bringing you to dwell may not vomit you out. And you shall not
walk in the statutes of the nation which I am casting out before you;

94
for they commit all these things, and therefore I abhor them. But I
have said to you, ‘You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you
to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey.’ I am the LORD your
God, who has separated you from the peoples” (Leviticus 20:22-24)

But His people would worship false idols, thus God removed the milk
from His people. “When I have brought them to the land flowing
with milk and honey, of which I swore to their fathers, and they have
eaten and filled themselves and grown fat, then they will turn to other
gods and serve them; and they will provoke Me and break My
covenant. Then it shall be, when many evils and troubles have come
upon them, that this song will testify against them as a witness; for it
will not be forgotten in the mouths of their descendants, for I know
the inclination of their behavior today, even before I have brought
them to the land of which I swore to give them.” (Deuteronomy
31:20-21) And though they had curds from the milk of the flock, they
drank from the blood of the grapes. “He made him ride in the heights
of the earth, that he might eat the produce of the fields; He made him
draw honey from the rock, and oil from the flinty rock; curds from
the cattle, and milk of the flock, with fat of lambs; and rams of the
breed of Bashan, and goats, with the choicest wheat; and you drank
wine, the blood of the grapes.” (Deuteronomy 32:13-14)

But His children have trusted in the milk of His promise. “You are
He who took Me out of the womb; You made Me trust while on My
mother's breasts. I was cast upon You from birth. From My mother's
womb You have been My God.” (Psalms 22:9-10) And the milk of
His promise is the precept of His knowledge. For “whom will he
teach knowledge? And whom will he make to understand the
message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just drawn from the
breasts? For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line

95
upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.” (Isaiah 28:9-10)
And the milk of His precepts are the principles of the oracles of God.
And those who learn its precepts are weaned to solid food which are
the words of righteousness. “You have need again for someone to
teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you
have come to need milk and not solid food. For everyone who
partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness,
for he is an infant. But solid food is for the mature, who because of
practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.” (Hebrews
5:12-14)

And the breast is the portion of the chest which protects the heart and
the lungs. And the breastplate of righteousness protects our heart and
breath of the Spirit. For the priests sacrificed fat in the offering, but
kept the breast as a just due from God. “He shall bring the fat with
the breast, that the breast may be presented as a wave offering before
the LORD. The priest shall offer up the fat in smoke on the altar, but
the breast shall belong to Aaron and his sons. You shall give the right
thigh to the priest as a contribution from the sacrifices of your peace
offerings. The one among the sons of Aaron who offers the blood of
the peace offerings and the fat, the right thigh shall be his as his
portion. For I have taken the breast of the wave offering and the thigh
of the contribution from the sons of Israel from the sacrifices of their
peace offerings, and have given them to Aaron the priest and to his
sons as their due forever from the sons of Israel.” (Leviticus 7:30-34)
And now His priests wear the breastplate of righteousness. “Therefore
take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in
the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having
girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of
righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the

96
gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you
will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.”
(Ephesians 6:13-16)

But this generation has been cruel and unjust. For they have
withheld the milk of His promises, and have stolen the milk from the
infants. For “even the jackals present their breasts to nurse their
young; but the daughter of my people is cruel, like ostriches in the
wilderness. The tongue of the infant clings to the roof of its mouth for
thirst; the young children ask for bread, but no one breaks it for
them.” (Lamentations 4:3-4) “Some snatch the fatherless from the
breast, and take a pledge from the poor. They cause the poor to go
naked, without clothing; and they take away the sheaves from the
hungry.” (Job 24:9-10) But the Son shall return with His breastplate
of righteousness, and He shall slay their tongues with His sword.
“Now the LORD saw, and it was displeasing in His sight that there was
no justice. And He saw that there was no man, and was astonished
that there was no one to intercede; then His own arm brought
salvation to Him, and His righteousness upheld Him. He put on
righteousness like a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on His
head; and He put on garments of vengeance for clothing and wrapped
Himself with zeal as a mantle. According to their deeds, so He will
repay, wrath to His adversaries, recompense to His enemies; to the
coastlands He will make recompense.” (Isaiah 59:15-18) “For indeed
the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren,
wombs that never bore, and breasts which never nursed!’ Then they
will begin ‘to say to the mountains, "Fall on us!" and to the hills,
‘Cover us!’ For if they do these things in the green wood, what will be
done in the dry?’” (Luke 23:28-31)

The Bittersweet Fruit of the Garden
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 15, 2009

The stomach is an organ which processes the food which we eat.

And the first food of man was the fruit from the tree of knowledge.
“When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was
a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise,
she took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with
her, and he ate.” (Genesis 3:6) And the food that was eaten was
bittersweet. For from the fruit came the sweet knowledge of God,
but from the fruit came the bitterness of death. “Out of the ground the
LORD God caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and
good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil.” (Genesis 2:9) For man was
instructed that by eating it he would die. And “you shall not eat from
it or touch it, or you will die.” (Genesis 3:3)

But even with death, the food of knowledge was good. For the food
that is eaten leads ultimately to life. And all knowledge is good, for
all knowledge comes from God and leads ultimately to life. But the
gods removed man from the Garden, before he could eat from the
fruit of life. “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing
good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also
from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever— therefore the LORD
God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground
from which he was taken. So He drove the man out; and at the east of
the garden of Eden He stationed the cherubim and the flaming sword

98
which turned every direction to guard the way to the tree of life.”
(Genesis 3:22-24)

And the food of the stomach is food from the ground, but the food
from the ground shall turn back to dust. For as the Lord said, “cursed
is the ground because of you; in toil you will eat of it all the days of
your life. Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you; and you will
eat the plants of the field; by the sweat of your face You will eat
bread, till you return to the ground, because from it you were taken;
for you are dust, and to dust you shall return.” (Genesis 3:17-19) And
God provided food for their stomachs, despite all the grumblings from
the people. “And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, ‘I have heard the
grumblings of the sons of Israel; speak to them, saying, at twilight
you shall eat meat , and in the morning you shall be filled with bread;
and you shall know that I am the LORD your God.’” (Exodus 16:11-
12) And God gave them the land of milk and honey, despite the evil
nature of their ways. “Hence I have said to you, ‘You are to possess
their land, and I Myself will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing
with milk and honey. I am the LORD your God, who has separated
you from the peoples.’” (Leviticus 20:24)

And the food of the stomach comes ultimately from God. And God
gave His people food in the desert, and instructed that they should
obey. For He ordered the people to trust in His ways, and they would
be fed from His hand. “This is what the LORD has commanded,
‘Gather of it every man as much as he should eat; you shall take an
omer apiece according to the number of persons each of you has in his
tent.’ The sons of Israel did so, and some gathered much and some
little. When they measured it with an omer, he who had gathered
much had no excess, and he who had gathered little had no lack;

99
every man gathered as much as he should eat.’ Moses said to them,
‘Let no man leave any of it until morning.’ But they did not listen to
Moses, and some left part of it until morning, and it bred worms and
became foul; and Moses was angry with them. They gathered it
morning by morning, every man as much as he should eat; but when
the sun grew hot, it would melt.” (Exodus 16:16-21)

And the food from the land comes solely from God. And God gave
His people the land which was promised, and instructed them how to
obey. For the food they were given was holy, but they were to disgrd
the unbclean. “You are therefore to make a distinction between the
clean animal and the unclean, and between the unclean bird and the
clean; and you shall not make yourselves detestable by animal or by
bird or by anything that creeps on the ground, which I have separated
for you as unclean. Thus you are to be holy to Me, for I the LORD am
holy; and I have set you apart from the peoples to be Mine.”
(Leviticus 20:25-26) But His people polluted the land with idols and
blood. “But they mingled with the nations and learned their practices,
and served their idols, which became a snare to them. They even
sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons, and shed
innocent blood, the blood of their sons and their daughters, whom
they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with
the blood. Thus they became unclean in their practices, and played the
harlot in their deeds.” (Psalms 106:35-39)

And because His people had failed, their food would fail. Thus the
Father would send food from the heavens. For the food from the
heavens is the Bread and Word of God. For as the Word taught us
“truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs,
but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. Do not work for the
food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life,

100
which the Son of Man will give to you, for on Him the Father, God,
has set His seal.” (John 6:26-28) “Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not
Moses who has given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father
who gives you the true bread out of heaven. For the bread of God is
that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world.”
(John 6:32-33) “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal
life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the
wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which comes down out of
heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread
that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will
live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the
world is My flesh.” (John 6:47-51)

But man’s fruit can be defiled as excrement. For as the Word said,
“’do you not understand that whatever goes into the man from outside
cannot defile him, because it does not go into his heart, but into his
stomach, and is eliminated?’ And He was saying, ‘That which
proceeds out of the man, that is what defiles the man. For from
within, out of the heart of men, proceed the evil thoughts, fornications
, thefts, murders, adulteries, deeds of coveting and wickedness, as
well as deceit, sensuality, envy , slander, pride and foolishness. All
these evil things proceed from within and defile the man.” (Mark
7:18-23)

And now we that we have the Bread of His Word, we produce fruit
that the tree of life bears. For the Word bears fruit which is sweet and
yields life. For as the Word said, “I am the true vine, and My Father
is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He
takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it
may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word
which I have spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch

101
cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can
you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he
who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from
Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown
away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them
into the fire and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words
abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. My
Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to
be My disciples.” (John 15:1-8)

But even the prophecy is bittersweet. For the words are sweet as
honey for His people, but bitter as wormwood for those who have
fallen. For as it says, “then the voice which I heard from heaven, I
heard again speaking with me, and saying, ‘Go, take the book which
is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the
land.’ So I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little book.
And he said to me, ‘Take it and eat it; it will make your stomach
bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey. I took the little
book out of the angel's hand and ate it, and in my mouth it was sweet
as honey; and when I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter. And
they said to me, ‘You must prophesy again concerning many peoples
and nations and tongues and kings.’” (Revelation 10:8-11)

For the words of the prophecy are sweet on our lips. For sweet is
derived from the English root swete which means “pleasing”. For as
it says of the Son, “He is like a refiner's fire and like fullers ' soap. He
will sit as a smelter and purifier of silver, and He will purify the sons
of Levi and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present
to the LORD offerings in righteousness. Then the offering of Judah
and Jerusalem will be pleasing to the LORD as in the days of old and
as in former years.” (Malachi 3:2-4) “And in that day the mountains

102
will drip with sweet wine, and the hills will flow with milk, and all the
brooks of Judah will flow with water; and a spring will go out from
the house of the LORD to water the valley of Shittim.” (Joel 3:18)

But “woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who substitute
darkness for light and light for darkness; who substitute bitter for
sweet and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20) For bitter is derived from
the English word bite which means “divided or split”. For the food of
the Israelites was divided at the hoof. “These are the creatures which
you may eat from all the animals that are on the earth. Whatever
divides a hoof, thus making split hoofs, and chews the cud, among the
animals, that you may eat.” (Leviticus 11:2-3) And the Bread and the
Word would divide good from evil. For as the Word said, “do you
suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather
division; for from now on five members in one household will be
divided, three against two and two against three. They will be divided,
father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and
daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and
daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.” (Luke 12:51-53) And the
Son now returns to split the last hoof. “For behold, the LORD is
coming forth from His place. He will come down and tread on the
high places of the earth. The mountains will melt under Him and the
valleys will be split, like wax before the fire, like water poured down
a steep place. All this is for the rebellion of Jacob and for the sins of
the house of Israel.” (Micah 1:3-5) And the day of judgment shall be
bitter indeed! “’It will come about in that day,’ declares the Lord
GOD, ‘that I will make the sun go down at noon and make the earth
dark in broad daylight. Then I will turn your festivals into mourning
and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring sackcloth on
everyone's loins and baldness on every head. And I will make it like a

103
time of mourning for an only son, and the end of it will be like a bitter
day.” (Amos 8:9-10)

Man’s Belly Shall Starve
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 17, 2009

The abdomen or belly is the portion of the body, which lies between
the pelvis and chest, and conceals the stomach and intestines. And
abdomen is derived from the Latin root abdere which means “to
conceal”. And the serpent concealed the truth from the beginning.
And “the LORD God said to the serpent, ‘Because you have done this,
cursed are you more than all cattle, and more than every beast of the
field; on your belly you will go, and dust you will eat all the days of
your life.” (Genesis 3:14) And God warned men not to conceal an
idolatry. “If your brother, your mother's son, or your son or daughter,
or the wife you cherish, or your friend who is as your own soul, entice
you secretly, saying, ‘Let us go and serve other gods’, you shall not
yield to him or listen to him; and your eye shall not pity him, nor shall
you spare or conceal him. But you shall surely kill him; your hand
shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand
of all the people. So you shall stone him to death because he has
sought to seduce you from the LORD your God who brought you out
from the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. Then all Israel
will hear and be afraid, and will never again do such a wicked thing
among you.” (Deuteronomy 13:6-11) And God warned that there is
nothing concealed, that on that day will not be revealed. “Therefore
do not fear them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be
revealed, or hidden that will not be known. What I tell you in the
darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in your ear,

105
proclaim upon the housetops. Do not fear those who kill the body but
are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy
both soul and body in hell.” (Matthew 10:26-28) And what the son
of perdition tried to conceal, the field of blood still revealed. For “the
Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit foretold by the
mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who
arrested Jesus. For he was counted among us and received his share in
this ministry. Now this man acquired a field with the price of his
wickedness, and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all
his intestines gushed out. And it became known to all who were
living in Jerusalem; so that in their own language that field was called
Hakeldama, that is, Field of Blood.” (Acts 1:16-19) Thus no man’s
sins shall be concealed, for all things on the inside shall be revealed.
And “though they hide on the summit of Carmel, I will search them
out and take them from there; and though they conceal themselves
from My sight on the floor of the sea, from there I will command the
serpent and it will bite them.” (Amos 9:3)

And God warned the people not to eat a beast’s belly. “Whatever
crawls on its belly, and whatever walks on all fours, whatever has
many feet, in respect to every swarming thing that swarms on the
earth, you shall not eat them, for they are detestable.” (Leviticus
11:42) And the belly of an adulterer would be a curse. “When he has
made her drink the water, then it shall come about, if she has defiled
herself and has been unfaithful to her husband, that the water which
brings a curse will go into her and cause bitterness, and her abdomen
will swell and her thigh will waste away, and the woman will become
a curse among her people.” (Numbers 5:27) And God warned the
people not to trust Satan’s lies. “Arise, O LORD, confront him, bring
him low; deliver my soul from the wicked with Your sword, from

106
men with Your hand, O LORD, from men of the world, whose portion
is in this life, and whose belly You fill with Your treasure; they are
satisfied with children, and leave their abundance to their babes. As
for me, I shall behold Your face in righteousness; I will be satisfied
with Your likeness when I awake.” (Psalms 17:13-15)

For the food that we live on is processed by our body. And the Word
that we live on is processed by our mind. But if we eat what is evil,
that which we eat shall turn into venom. For “though evil is sweet in
his mouth and he hides it under his tongue, though he desires it and
will not let it go, but holds it in his mouth, yet his food in his stomach
is changed to the venom of cobras within him. He swallows riches,
but will vomit them up; God will expel them from his belly.” (Job
20:12-15) For even the prophets were subject to the venom. “So they
picked up Jonah, threw him into the sea, and the sea stopped its
raging. Then the men feared the LORD greatly, and they offered a
sacrifice to the LORD and made vows and the LORD appointed a great
fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three
days and three nights.” (Jonah 1:15-17) And even the Son was
subject to the venom. “For just as JONAH WAS THREE DAYS AND
THREE NIGHTS IN THE BELLY OF THE SEA MONSTER will the Son of Man
be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of
Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment, and will
condemn it because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and
behold, something greater than Jonah is here.”(Matthew 12:39-41)

And bread and blood must be consumed by our belly in order to live.
And the Bread and Blood must be consumed by our spirit in order to
live. For as the Word taught us, “it is written in the Prophets: ‘They
will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who listens to the Father and
learns from him comes to me. No one has seen the Father except the

107
one who is from God; only he has seen the Father. I tell you the truth,
he who believes has everlasting life. I am the bread of life. Your
forefathers ate the manna in the desert, yet they died. But here is the
bread that comes down from heaven, which a man may eat and not
die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone
eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I
will give for the life of the world. I tell you the truth, unless you eat
the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in
you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and
I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my
blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood
remains in me, and I in him. Just as the living Father sent me and I
live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live
because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your
forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will
live forever.” (John 6:45-58)

But sometimes the stomach rejects the food it consumes. And many
have rejected His Word. For as the Word said, “if anyone hears My
sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not
come to judge the world, but to save the world. He who rejects Me
and does not receive My sayings, has one who judges him; the word I
spoke is what will judge him at the last day.” (John 12:47-49) For
what comes from the Word is life everlasting. For “truly, truly, I say
to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has
eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of
death into life.” (John 5:24) But what comes from this world is
vomited and defiled. “For if, after they have escaped the defilements
of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
they are again entangled in them and are overcome, the last state has

108
become worse for them than the first.” And still they return to
consume their own vomit. “For it would be better for them not to
have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn
away from the holy commandment handed on to them. It has
happened to them according to the true proverb, “A DOG RETURNS TO
ITS OWN VOMIT,” and, “A sow, after washing, returns to wallowing in
the mire.” (2 Peter 2:20-22)

And when the body receives no food, the mind and the body quickly
deteriorate, as the body is starved. And when we do not receive the
Word, the mind and the spirit rapidly deteriorate. And because man
has rejected His Word, all the gods of this earth shall starve. And “the
LORD will be terrifying to them, for He will starve all the gods of the
earth; and all the coastlands of the nations will bow down to Him,
everyone from his own place.” (Zephaniah 2:12) And in the summer
of 2009, the third seal shall be opened, and the nations shall suffer by
famine. For as the prophecy says, “when He broke the third seal, I
heard the third living creature saying, ‘Come.’ I looked, and behold, a
black horse; and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And
I heard something like a voice in the center of the four living creatures
saying, ‘A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for
a denarius; and do not damage the oil and the wine.’” (Revelation 6:5-
6) Thus mankind shall starve by famine. For the King shall eat His
portion, and the Lion shall drink His full cup of wine.

109
There is nothing we can do but wait as calmly
as we can till the misery comes to an end.
Jews and Christians wait, the whole earth
waits; and there are many who wait for death.

The Womb of Mankind
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 19, 2009

The womb is a fruit shaped organ in a woman, which is capable of

carrying a child. And the womb is the cradle of mankind, which has
carried the fruit of mankind.

For the fruit of the tree of the Garden was the fruit of the womb. For
“to the woman God said, ‘I will greatly multiply your pain in
childbirth, in pain you will bring forth children; yet your desire will
be for your husband, and he will rule over you.” (Genesis 3:16) For
the fruit of the womb is the fruit of the nations. For as the Lord said
to Rebekah, “two nations are in your womb; and two peoples will be
separated from your body; and one people shall be stronger than the
other; and the older shall serve the younger.” (Genesis 25:23) And it
is God who controls the womb of mankind. For He opened Leah’s
womb when He wished. “Now the LORD saw that Leah was unloved,
and He opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.” (Genesis 29:31)
And He opened Rachel’s womb as He willed. “Then God
remembered Rachel, and God gave heed to her and opened her womb.
So she conceived and bore a son and said, ‘God has taken away my
reproach.’” (Genesis 30:22-23) For all of God’s children are the fruit
of His hand. For “thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, and the one
who formed you from the womb, ‘I, the LORD, am the maker of all
things, stretching out the heavens by Myself and spreading out the
earth all alone.’” (Isaiah 44:24)

111
And the firstborn of the womb belonged to the Lord. For “the Lord
spoke to Moses, saying, sanctify to Me every firstborn, the first
offspring of every womb among the sons of Israel, both of man and
beast; it belongs to Me.” (Exodus 13:1-2) For the firstborn of Israel
were redeemed by His hand. “Every firstborn of my sons I redeem.
So it shall serve as a sign on your hand and as phylacteries on your
forehead, for with a powerful hand the LORD brought us out of
Egypt.” (Exodus 13:15-16) And the firstborn of the beasts were
brought to the altar. “You shall devote to the LORD the first offspring
of every womb, and the first offspring of every beast that you own;
the males belong to the LORD.” (Exodus 13:12) And the firstborn
were sacrificed by the priests. “Thus you shall separate the Levites
from among the sons of Israel, and the Levites shall be Mine. Then
after that the Levites may go in to serve the tent of meeting. But you
shall cleanse them and present them as a wave offering; for they are
wholly given to Me from among the sons of Israel. I have taken them
for Myself instead of every first issue of the womb, the firstborn of all
the sons of Israel. For every firstborn among the sons of Israel is
Mine, among the men and among the animals; on the day that I struck
down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I sanctified them for
Myself. But I have taken the Levites instead of every firstborn among
the sons of Israel. I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and to
his sons from among the sons of Israel, to perform the service of the
sons of Israel at the tent of meeting and to make atonement on behalf
of the sons of Israel, so that there will be no plague among the sons of
Israel by their coming near to the sanctuary.” (Numbers 8:14-19)

And God promised His people their womb would be fruitful, if they
would just keep His commands. “Then it shall come about, because
you listen to these judgments and keep and do them, that the LORD

112
your God will keep with you His covenant and His lovingkindness
which He swore to your forefathers. He will love you and bless you
and multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the
fruit of your ground, your grain and your new wine and your oil, the
increase of your herd and the young of your flock, in the land which
He swore to your forefathers to give you. You shall be blessed above
all peoples; there will be no male or female barren among you or
among your cattle. The LORD will remove from you all sickness; and
He will not put on you any of the harmful diseases of Egypt which
you have known, but He will lay them on all who hate you. You shall
consume all the peoples whom the LORD your God will deliver to
you; your eye shall not pity them, nor shall you serve their gods, for
that would be a snare to you.” (Deuteronomy 7:12-16)

But they did not keep His commands, thus their wombs did not keep
their fruit. “As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird— No
birth, no pregnancy and no conception! Though they bring up their
children, yet I will bereave them until not a man is left. Yes, woe to
them indeed when I depart from them! Ephraim, as I have seen, is
planted in a pleasant meadow like Tyre; but Ephraim will bring out
his children for slaughter. Give them, O LORD—what will You give?
Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.” (Hosea 9:11-14)
And their pregnant wombs would be laid open. “Samaria will be held
guilty, for she has rebelled against her God. They will fall by the
sword, their little ones will be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant
women will be ripped open.” (Hosea 13:16)

But God sent His Son through man’s womb. “Now says the LORD,
who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, to bring Jacob
back to Him, so that Israel might be gathered to Him, He says, ‘It is
too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up the tribes

113
of Jacob and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also make
You a light of the nations so that My salvation may reach to the end
of the earth. Thus says the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel and its Holy
One, to the despised One, to the One abhorred by the nation, to the
Servant of rulers, Kings will see and arise, princes will also bow
down, because of the LORD who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel
who has chosen You.” (Isaiah 49:5-7) And the Son was conceived in
the womb by the Spirit. For as was instructed to Mary “behold, you
will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name Him
Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High;
and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David; and
He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and His kingdom will
have no end. Mary said to the angel, ‘How can this be, since I am a
virgin?’ The angel answered and said to her, ‘The Holy Spirit will
come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow
you; and for that reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of
God.’” (Luke 1:31-35)

For the womb is derived from the Old English root umbor which
means “child”. And the Father sent His Son as the Child of God.
For “she will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He
will save His people from their sins. Now all this took place to fulfill
what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet: ‘BEHOLD, THE
VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY
SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL’ translated means, ‘GOD WITH US.’”
(Matthew 1:21-23) And all must be converted as children of God. For
as the Son taught us, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted
and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.”
(Matthew 18:3) And God’s blessings come not from the womb, but
from the Son the Word of God. For as was said to the Son, ‘Blessed

114
is the womb that bore You and the breasts at which You nursed.’ But
He said, ‘On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God
and observe it.’” (Luke 11:27-28) And the fruit of man’s spirit comes
not from the womb, but from the womb of God who is Spirit. For as
Nicodemus asked the Son, “How can a man be born when he is old?
He cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born,
can he?’ Jesus answered, ‘Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born
of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That
which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit
is spirit. Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must be born
again. The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it,
but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is
everyone who is born of the Spirit.’” (John 3:4-8)

115
 Rejoice, O barren,
You who do not bear!
Break forth and shout,
You who are not in labor!
For the desolate has many more children
Than she who has a husband.
Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of
promise. But, as he who was born according to the
flesh then persecuted him who was born according
to the Spirit, even so it is now. Nevertheless what
does the Scripture say? ‘Cast out the bondwoman
and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not
be heir with the son of the freewoman.’ So then,
brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but
of the free.
Galatians 4:27-31

The Shoulders of the Shepherd
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 22, 2009

If I have seen further than others, it is by

standing upon the shoulders of giants.
Sir Isaac Newton

The shoulder is the section which connects the arms to the body.
And the shoulders have the strength to carry; to bear weight on the
left and to bear weight on the right.

And it was on Hagar’s shoulders that Ishmael was left. And Ishmael
would shoulder the nations of Islam. “So Abraham rose early in the
morning and took bread and a skin of water and gave them to Hagar,
putting them on her shoulder, and gave her the boy, and sent her
away. And she departed and wandered about in the wilderness of
Beersheba. When the water in the skin was used up, she left the boy
under one of the bushes. Then she went and sat down opposite him,
about a bowshot away, for she said, ‘Do not let me see the boy die.’
And she sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice and wept. God
heard the lad crying; and the angel of God called to Hagar from
heaven and said to her, ‘What is the matter with you, Hagar? Do not
fear, for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is. Arise, lift up

117
the lad, and hold him by the hand, for I will make a great nation of
him. Then God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water; and she
went and filled the skin with water and gave the lad a drink. God was
with the lad, and he grew; and he lived in the wilderness and became
an archer. He lived in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother took a
wife for him from the land of Egypt.” (Genesis 21:14-21)

And it was upon Rebekah’s shoulders that the right of God’s people
was established. For “Abraham said to his servant, the oldest of his
household, who had charge of all that he owned, ‘Please place your
hand under my thigh, and I will make you swear by the LORD, the
God of heaven and the God of earth, that you shall not take a wife for
my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I live, but
you will go to my country and to my relatives, and take a wife for my
son Isaac.’ The servant said to him, ‘Suppose the woman is not
willing to follow me to this land; should I take your son back to the
land from where you came? Then Abraham said to him, ‘Beware that
you do not take my son back there! The LORD, the God of heaven,
who took me from my father's house and from the land of my birth,
and who spoke to me and who swore to me, saying, ‘To your
descendants I will give this land, He will send His angel before you,
and you will take a wife for my son from there. But if the woman is
not willing to follow you, then you will be free from this my oath;
only do not take my son back there.’ So the servant placed his hand
under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning
this matter. Then the servant took ten camels from the camels of his
master, and set out with a variety of good things of his master's in his
hand; and he arose and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor. He
made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at
evening time, the time when women go out to draw water. He said, ‘O

118
LORD, the God of my master Abraham, please grant me success
today, and show lovingkindness to my master Abraham. Behold, I am
standing by the spring, and the daughters of the men of the city are
coming out to draw water; now may it be that the girl to whom I say,
‘Please let down your jar so that I may drink,’ and who answers,
‘Drink, and I will water your camels also’—may she be the one whom
You have appointed for Your servant Isaac; and by this I will know
that You have shown lovingkindness to my master. Before he had
finished speaking, behold, Rebekah who was born to Bethuel the son
of Milcah, the wife of Abraham's brother Nahor, came out with her jar
on her shoulder. The girl was very beautiful, a virgin, and no man
had had relations with her; and she went down to the spring and filled
her jar and came up. Then the servant ran to meet her, and said,
‘Please let me drink a little water from your jar.’ She said, ‘Drink, my
lord’; and she quickly lowered her jar to her hand, and gave him a
drink. Now when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, ‘I will
draw also for your camels until they have finished drinking.’”
(Genesis 24:1-19)

And it was through the womb of Rebekah, that Jacob claimed the
rights that Esau had left. “Now these are the records of the
generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham became the father of
Isaac; and Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the
daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban
the Aramean , to be his wife. Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of
his wife, because she was barren; and the LORD answered him and
Rebekah his wife conceived. But the children struggled together
within her; and she said, ‘If it is so, why then am I this way?’ So she
went to inquire of the LORD. The LORD said to her, ‘Two nations are
in your womb; and two peoples will be separated from your body; and

119
one people shall be stronger than the other; and the older shall serve
the younger.’ When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold,
there were twins in her womb. Now the first came forth red, all over
like a hairy garment; and they named him Esau. Afterward his
brother came forth with his hand holding on to Esau's heel, so his
name was called Jacob; and Isaac was sixty years old when she gave
birth to them. When the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter,
a man of the field, but Jacob was a peaceful man, living in tents. Now
Isaac loved Esau, because he had a taste for game, but Rebekah loved
Jacob. When Jacob had cooked stew, Esau came in from the field
and he was famished; and Esau said to Jacob, ‘Please let me have a
swallow of that red stuff there, for I am famished.’ Therefore his
name was called Edom. But Jacob said, ‘First sell me your
birthright.’ Esau said, ‘Behold, I am about to die; so of what use then
is the birthright to me?’ And Jacob said, ‘First swear to me’; so he
swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau
bread and lentil stew; and he ate and drank, and rose and went on his
way. Thus Esau despised his birthright. (Genesis 25:19-34)

But it takes two shoulders to carry a full load. For the priests wore
garments that were joined at the shoulder. “They shall also make the
ephod of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted
linen, the work of the skillful workman. It shall have two shoulder
pieces joined to its two ends, that it may be joined.” (Exodus 28:6-7)
And two onyx stones were placed on the shoulders as a memorial.
“You shall put the two stones on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, as
stones of memorial for the sons of Israel, and Aaron shall bear their
names before the LORD on his two shoulders for a memorial.”
(Exodus 28:12) And two cords and rings were placed on the
shoulders. “They put the other two ends of the two cords on the two

120
filigree settings, and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at
the front of it. They made two gold rings and placed them on the two
ends of the breastpiece, on its inner edge which was next to the
ephod. Furthermore, they made two gold rings and placed them on the
bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod, on the front of it,
close to the place where it joined, above the woven band of the
ephod.” (Exodus 39:18-20) And on their two shoulders the priests
carried the ark of the covenant. “The sons of the Levites carried the
ark of God on their shoulders with the poles thereon, as Moses had
commanded according to the word of the LORD.” (1 Chronicles 15:15)
And as their just due, the priests were given the shoulder of the
sacrifice. “Now this shall be the priests' due from the people, from
those who offer a sacrifice, either an ox or a sheep, of which they
shall give to the priest the shoulder and the two cheeks and the
stomach.” (Deuteronomy 18:3-4)

For the shoulders symbolize strength, and His people were

commanded to carry stones on their shoulders, as a memorial to the
twelve tribes of Israel. “So Joshua called the twelve men whom he
had appointed from the sons of Israel, one man from each tribe; and
Joshua said to them, ‘Cross again to the ark of the LORD your God
into the middle of the Jordan, and each of you take up a stone on his
shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel.
Let this be a sign among you, so that when your children ask later,
saying, ‘What do these stones mean to you?’ Then you shall say to
them, ‘Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of
the covenant of the LORD; when it crossed the Jordan, the waters of
the Jordan were cut off.’ So these stones shall become a memorial to
the sons of Israel forever.” (Josh 4:4-7) And the prophecy foretold,
that the Son would carry the key to His house on His shoulder. “Then

121
I will set the key of the house of David on his shoulder, when he
opens no one will shut, when he shuts no one will open. I will drive
him like a peg in a firm place, and he will become a throne of glory to
his father's house.” (Isaiah 22:22-23) And the prophecy foretold, that
the Son would carry great strength on His shoulders. “For You shall
break the yoke of their burden and the staff on their shoulders, the rod
of their oppressor, as at the battle of Midian. For every boot of the
booted warrior in the battle tumult, and cloak rolled in blood, will be
for burning, fuel for the fire. For a child will be born to us, a son will
be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and
His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal
Father, Prince of Peace. There will be no end to the increase of His
government or of peace, on the throne of David and over his
kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and
righteousness from then on and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of
hosts will accomplish this.” (Isaiah 9:4-7) And the cornerstone of the
Temple would be laid by the Son. For “the stone which the builders
rejected has become the chief cornerstone. This was the LORD'S
doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes.” (Mark 12:10-11) And the
sheep would be carried on His shoulders. For as the Shepherd said,
“what man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and has lost one of
them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture and go after
the one which is lost until he finds it? When he has found it, he lays it
on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he comes home, he calls
together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with
me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’ I tell you that in the
same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who
repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no
repentance.” (Luke 15:4-7)

122
And He offered to take the burden off man’s shoulders. But ninety-
nine chose not to follow, and they continue to lay burdens on men’s
shoulders, and they continue to add work to men’s yolks. For “they
tie up heavy burdens and lay them on men's shoulders, but they
themselves are unwilling to move them with so much as a finger. But
they do all their deeds to be noticed by men; for they broaden their
phylacteries and lengthen the tassels of their garments. They love the
place of honor at banquets and the chief seats in the synagogues, and
respectful greetings in the market places, and being called Rabbi by
men.” (Matthew 23:4-8) And the merchants continue to worship their
gold, and to lift up their gold on their shoulders. “Those who lavish
gold from the purse and weigh silver on the scale hire a goldsmith,
and he makes it into a god; they bow down, indeed they worship it.
They lift it upon the shoulder and carry it; they set it in its place and it
stands there. It does not move from its place. Though one may cry to
it, it cannot answer; it cannot deliver him from his distress.” (Isaiah
46:6-7) And man continues to turn a stubborn shoulder against God.
“Thus has the LORD of hosts said, ‘Dispense true justice and practice
kindness and compassion each to his brother; and do not oppress the
widow or the orphan, the stranger or the poor; and do not devise evil
in your hearts against one another.’ But they refused to pay attention
and turned a stubborn shoulder and stopped their ears from hearing.
They made their hearts like flint so that they could not hear the law
and the words which the LORD of hosts had sent by His Spirit through
the former prophets; therefore great wrath came from the LORD of
hosts.” (Zechariah 7:9-12)

But now the Shepherd shall return for the ninety nine left. And
Assyria (Iraq and Iran) shall remove the last yolk from their shoulder,
and seek vengeance on those who have burdened them. For “the

123
LORD of hosts has sworn saying, ‘Surely, just as I have intended so it
has happened, and just as I have planned so it will stand, to break
Assyria in My land, and I will trample him on My mountains. Then
his yoke will be removed from them and his burden removed from
their shoulder. This is the plan devised against the whole earth; and
this is the hand that is stretched out against all the nations. For the
LORD of hosts has planned, and who can frustrate it? And as for His
stretched-out hand, who can turn it back?” (Isaiah 14:24-27) And
each man’s work shall be judged by the Lion. “Therefore, thus says
the Lord GOD to them, ‘Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat
sheep and the lean sheep. Because you push with side and with
shoulder, and thrust at all the weak with your horns until you have
scattered them abroad, therefore, I will deliver My flock, and they
will no longer be a prey; and I will judge between one sheep and
another.” (Ezekiel 34:20-22) “’Therefore wait for Me,’ declares the
LORD, ‘For the day when I rise up as a witness. Indeed, My decision
is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms, to pour out on them My
indignation, all My burning anger; for all the earth will be devoured
By the fire of My zeal. For then I will give to the peoples purified
lips, that all of them may call on the name of the LORD, to serve Him
shoulder to shoulder.” (Zephaniah 3:8-9)

If I have seen further than others, it is by

standing upon the shoulders of the Shepherd.

 XXII
Man Shall Take Up Arms
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 23, 2009

Arms are the upper limbs of the body, with one opposed on the left,
and the other opposed on the right. For arm is derived from the Latin
word arma which means “weapon”. And the body is ready with
weapons, for mankind is armed on the left and the right, so that all
may be brought to an end.

For the body of mankind was divided in arms, by Sarai and Hagar at
the beginning. “Now Sarai, Abram's wife had borne him no children,
and she had an Egyptian maid whose name was Hagar. So Sarai said
to Abram, ‘Now behold, the LORD has prevented me from bearing
children. Please go in to my maid; perhaps I will obtain children
through her.’ And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai. After Abram
had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, Abram's wife Sarai took
Hagar the Egyptian, her maid, and gave her to her husband Abram as
his wife. He went in to Hagar, and she conceived; and when she saw
that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her sight. And
Sarai said to Abram, ‘May the wrong done me be upon you. I gave
my maid into your arms , but when she saw that she had conceived, I
was despised in her sight. May the LORD judge between you and
me.’ But Abram said to Sarai, ‘Behold, your maid is in your power;
do to her what is good in your sight.’ So Sarai treated her harshly, and
she fled from her presence.” (Genesis 16:1-6)

125
Thus the body of mankind was at arms, but the Father stretched out
His arm to Israel. “God spoke further to Moses and said to him, ‘I am
the LORD; and I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as God
Almighty, but by My name, LORD, I did not make Myself known to
them. I also established My covenant with them, to give them the
land of Canaan, the land in which they sojourned. Furthermore I have
heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, because the Egyptians are
holding them in bondage, and I have remembered My covenant. Say,
therefore, to the sons of Israel, ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you
out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you
from their bondage. I will also redeem you with an outstretched arm
and with great judgments. Then I will take you for My people, and I
will be your God; and you shall know that I am the LORD your God,
who brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.”
(Exodus 6:2-7)

And the Father gave the power of arms over to Israel. “There is none
like the God of Israel, who rides the heavens to your help, and
through the skies in His majesty. The eternal God is a dwelling place,
and underneath are the everlasting arms; and He drove out the enemy
from before you, and said, ‘Destroy!’” (Deuteronomy 33:26-27) And
the Father armed Israel in the desert. “Then the LORD spoke to Moses,
saying, ‘Take full vengeance for the sons of Israel on the Midianites;
afterward you will be gathered to your people. Moses spoke to the
people, saying, ‘Arm men from among you for the war, that they may
go against Midian to execute the LORD'S vengeance on Midian. A
thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel you shall send to
the war. So there were furnished from the thousands of Israel, a
thousand from each tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.” (Numbers
31:1-5) And God promised the Israelites, that if they armed

126
themselves, they would inherit the land. “So Moses said to them, ‘If
you will do this, if you will arm yourselves before the LORD for the
war, and all of you armed men cross over the Jordan before the LORD
until He has driven His enemies out from before Him, and the land is
subdued before the LORD, then afterward you shall return and be free
of obligation toward the LORD and toward Israel, and this land shall
be yours for a possession before the LORD. But if you will not do so,
behold, you have sinned against the LORD, and be sure your sin will
find you out.” (Numbers 32:20-24)

But the Israelites refused to arm themselves, with the arm of God’s
mighty strength, thus they failed to inherit the land. For “You with
Your own hand drove out the nations; then You planted them; You
afflicted the peoples, then You spread them abroad. For by their own
sword they did not possess the land, and their own arm did not save
them, but Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your
presence, for You favored them.” (Psalms 44:2-3) But the Lord gave
His arms back to Israel, to conquer and inherit the land. “So Joshua
the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, ‘Take up the ark of
the covenant, and let seven priests carry seven trumpets of rams' horns
before the ark of the LORD.’ Then he said to the people, ‘Go forward,
and march around the city, and let the armed men go on before the
ark of the LORD… So the people shouted, and priests blew the
trumpets; and when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the
people shouted with a great shout and the wall fell down flat, so that
the people went up into the city, every man straight ahead, and they
took the city. They utterly destroyed everything in the city, both man
and woman, young and old, and ox and sheep and donkey, with the
edge of the sword.” (Joshua 6:6-21)

127
And an army is defined as an organized military force. And when the
military forces are armed, they form the armed might of the nations.
Yet despite the armed might of the nations, it is God who has the
power to smite any nation. For the Lord destroyed Pharaoh’s great
army. “The LORD looked down on the army of the Egyptians through
the pillar of fire and cloud and brought the army of the Egyptians into
confusion. He caused their chariot wheels to swerve, and He made
them drive with difficulty; so the Egyptians said, ‘Let us flee from
Israel, for the LORD is fighting for them against the Egyptians.’ Then
the LORD said to Moses, ‘Stretch out your hand over the sea so that
the waters may come back over the Egyptians, over their chariots and
their horsemen.’ So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the
sea returned to its normal state at daybreak, while the Egyptians were
fleeing right into it; then the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the
midst of the sea. The waters returned and covered the chariots and the
horsemen, even Pharaoh's entire army that had gone into the sea after
them; not even one of them remained.” (Exodus 14:24-28)

And the Lord has the power to strengthen any army. For the Lord
gave Gideon’s army of just 300 men, the power to slaughter one
hundred thousand. “So Gideon and the hundred men who were with
him came to the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle
watch, when they had just posted the watch; and they blew the
trumpets and smashed the pitchers that were in their hands. When the
three companies blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers, they held
the torches in their left hands and the trumpets in their right hands for
blowing, and cried, ‘A sword for the LORD and for Gideon!’ Each
stood in his place around the camp; and all the army ran, crying out as
they fled. When they blew 300 trumpets, the LORD set the sword of
one against another even throughout the whole army; and the army

128
fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the edge of Abel-
meholah, by Tabbath. The men of Israel were summoned from
Naphtali and Asher and all Manasseh, and they pursued Midian.”
(Judges 7:19-23)

And armor is defined as a plate of metal, which gives armed men

protection in battle. But even the finest of armors must be tested in
battle. For David had not tested his armor in battle. “Then Saul
clothed David with his garments and put a bronze helmet on his head,
and he clothed him with armor. David girded his sword over his
armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested them. So David said to
Saul, ‘I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.’ And David
took them off.” (1 Samuel 17:38-39) For an armor must be tested to
be true, and the truest tested armor is the armor of light. So “do this,
knowing the time, that it is already the hour for you to awaken from
sleep; for now salvation is nearer to us than when we believed. The
night is almost gone, and the day is near. Therefore let us lay aside the
deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.” (Romans 13:11-12)
For the armor of light is the Truth and the Word. And it is through
the armor of God, that He arms us with power and might. “Finally, be
strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the full
armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the
schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of
this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the
heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you
will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to
stand firm. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth,
having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your
feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the

129
shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts
of the wicked one.” (Ephesians 6:14-16)

And now that the time draws near, a summons has been called for the
armies to battle. “Thus says the LORD: ‘Behold, I am going to arouse
against Babylon and against the inhabitants of Leb-kamai the spirit of
a destroyer. I will dispatch foreigners to Babylon that they may
winnow her and may devastate her land; for on every side they will be
opposed to her in the day of her calamity. Let not him who bends his
bow bend it, nor let him rise up in his scale-armor; so do not spare
her young men; devote all her army to destruction. They will fall
down slain in the land of the Chaldeans, and pierced through in their
streets.” (Jeremiah 51:1-4)

For the Lord is armed and ready to battle. “And the LORD will cause
His voice of authority to be heard, and the descending of His arm to
be seen in fierce anger, and in the flame of a consuming fire in
cloudburst, downpour and hailstones. For at the voice of the LORD
Assyria will be terrified, when He strikes with the rod. And every
blow of the rod of punishment, which the LORD will lay on him, will
be with the music of tambourines and lyres; and in battles,
brandishing weapons, He will fight them.” (Isaiah 30:30-32) And the
arms of the wicked shall be broken. “For better is the little of the
righteous than the abundance of many wicked. For the arms of the
wicked will be broken, but the LORD sustains the righteous.” (Psalms
37:16-17) And the righteous shall be raised by God’s mighty arm.
“Get yourself up on a high mountain, O Zion, bearer of good news,
lift up your voice mightily, O Jerusalem, bearer of good news; lift it
up, do not fear. Say to the cities of Judah, ‘Here is your God!’ Behold,
the Lord GOD will come with might, with His arm ruling for Him.
Behold, His reward is with Him and His recompense before Him.

130
Like a shepherd He will tend His flock, in His arm He will gather the
lambs and carry them in His bosom.” (Isaiah 40:9-11) And all
nations shall see the arm of His salvation. And says to Zion, ‘Your
God reigns! Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices, they shout
joyfully together; for they will see with their own eyes when the
LORD restores Zion. Break forth, shout joyfully together, you waste
places of Jerusalem; for the LORD has comforted His people, He has
redeemed Jerusalem. The LORD has bared His holy arm in the sight of
all the nations, that all the ends of the earth may see the salvation of
our God.” (Isaiah 52:7-10)

The Three Hands of the Trinity
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 28, 2009

Hand is derived from the Gothic word handus which means “control”.
And all things are in God’s hands, for all things are under His control.
For the hand is the end of the arm used for grasping. And at the end
all men shall grasp “and gain insight as well, that the hand of the
LORD has done this, and the Holy One of Israel has created it.” (Isaiah
41:20)

And the hand of God has created all things through the Trinity. For
all things were created by the hand of the Father. “O LORD, You are
our Father, we are the clay, and You our potter; and all of us are the
work of Your hand.” (Isaiah 64:8) And all things were handed from
the Father to the Son. For “the Father loves the Son and has given all
things into His hand. He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but
he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God
abides on him.” (John 3:35-36) And all things were handed from the
Father to the Spirit through the Son. For as the Son said “the Helper,
the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will
teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to
you.” (John 14:26)

And now His children have been handed the task of completing His
work. For “someone may well say, ‘You have faith and I have works;
show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith

132
by my works. For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also
faith without works is dead.” (James 2:18-26) And Christ has handed
us this holy task, “go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy
Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I
am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:18-20)

And through all these things we are handed God’s peace. For as
“Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you; as the Father has sent
Me, I also send you.’ And when He had said this, He breathed on
them and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit.’” (John 20:21-22)
For through the Holy Trinity all things are complete. For “who is the
one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the
Son of God? This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus
Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood.
It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. For there
are three that testify: the Spirit and the water and the blood; and the
three are in agreement.” (1 John 5:5-8) And through the Holy Trinity,
we are handed our inheritance. And “because you are sons, God has
sent forth the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, ‘Abba!
Father!’ Therefore you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son,
then an heir through God.” (Galatians 4:6-7)

The Tabernacle was made in the image of God’s hands

“Five curtains shall be joined to one another, and the other curtains
shall be joined to one another.” Exodus 26:3

“Then you shall make bars of acacia wood, five for the boards of one
side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the other side of
the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the
tabernacle for the rear side to the west.” Exodus 26:26-27

“You shall make five pillars of acacia for the screen and overlay them
with gold, their hooks also being of gold; and you shall cast five
sockets of bronze for them.” Exodus 26:37

The Temple of God was made in the semblance of God’s hands

“Five cubits was the one wing of the cherub and five cubits the other
wing of the cherub; from the end of one wing to the end of the other
wing were ten cubits.” 1 Kings 6:24

134
“He also made ten basins in which to wash, and he set five on the
right side and five on the left to rinse things for the burnt offering; but
the sea was for the priests to wash in. Then he made the ten golden
lampstands in the way prescribed for them and he set them in the
temple, five on the right side and five on the left. He also made ten
tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on
the left. And he made one hundred golden bowls.” 2 Chronicles 4:6-8

Christ is the Hands of God

“Ordering the people to sit down on the grass, He took the five loaves
and the two fish, and looking up toward heaven, He blessed the food,
and breaking the loaves He gave them to the disciples, and the
disciples gave them to the crowds.” Matthew 14:19

“There were about five thousand men who ate, besides women and
children.” Matthew 14:21

“When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many
baskets full of broken pieces you picked up?" They said to Him,
‘Twelve.’” Mark 8:19

His followers represent the hands of God

“A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a

kingdom and to return. So he called ten of his servants, delivered to

135
them ten minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come.’ But his
citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We will
not have this man to reign over us.’ And so it was that when he
returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these
servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that
he might know how much every man had gained by trading. Then
came the first, saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned ten minas.’ And
he said to him, ‘Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in
a very little, have authority over ten cities.’ And the second came,
saying, ‘Master, your mina has earned five minas.’ Likewise he said
to him, ‘You also be over five cities.’ Then another came, saying,
‘Master, here is your mina, which I have kept put away in a
handkerchief. For I feared you, because you are an austere man. You
collect what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.’ And
he said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked
servant. You knew that I was an austere man, collecting what I did not
deposit and reaping what I did not sow. Why then did you not put my
money in the bank, that at my coming I might have collected it with
interest?’ And he said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina from
him, and give it to him who has ten minas.’ (But they said to him,
‘Master, he has ten minas.’) For I say to you, that to everyone who
has will be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has
will be taken away from him. But bring here those enemies of mine,
who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.”
Luke 19:12-27

The Name of His Word is five letters

“However, in the church I desire to speak five words with my mind so

 The Hand of God Touches Man

It is by the hand of God that He shows His love and kindness, and it is
by His hand that in vengeance He destroys. “Show Your marvelous
lovingkindness by Your right hand, O You who save those who trust
in You from those who rise up against them.” (Psalms 17:7) For God
controls all things in His hands, and He created man from the work of
His hands. For the Roman numeral for five is V, which is the creative
power of His hands. And the Greek numeral for five is epsilon (ε),
which is the yearning of life from our hands. For “You open Your
hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.” (Psalms 145:16)

Hand of God Hand of Man

And the Word came from the hands of the Father. For the covenant
of Ten Commandments, was written by His hands. “And when He
had made an end of speaking with him on Mount Sinai, He gave
Moses two tablets of the Testimony, tablets of stone, written with the

139
finger of God.” (Exodus 31:18) And the Torah are the five books of
His people, which form the foundation of His Word.

And the tabernacle was built in the semblance of His hands. For by
the hand of God, His people were delivered from Egypt. “By strength
of hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of
bondage.” (Exodus 13:14) And by the strength of His hands, the
tabernacle of the covenant was built. For the tabernacle was covered
by five curtains on each side. (Exodus 26:3) And the tabernacle was
built with five boards on each side. (Exodus 26:26-27) And the
tabernacle was held by five pillars on each side. (Exodus 26:37)

140
And the temple was built in the semblance of His hands. For the
cherubim was the breadth of five cubits on each side. (1 Kings 6:24)
And in the holy place were five basins on each side, on which the
priests cleaned the Lord’s offering. And in front of the basins in the
temple, were five tables of sacrifice on each side, on which to prepare
the Lord’s offering. And besides the basins of sacrifice, were five
lampstands of gold on each side, on which to light the Lord’s
offering. And on each table of offering in the temple, were five bowls
of gold on each side, on which to present the Lord’s offering. (2
Chronicles 4:6-8) And the priests were to keep their hands pure. For
“he who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his
soul to an idol, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive blessing from
the Lord.” (Psalms 24:4-5) But His priests did not keep their hands
pure, thus the temple of their hands was destroyed. (Ezra 5:12)

141
Thus the Son came as the High Priest of the Temple. And the High
Priest of the Temple “took the five loaves and the two fish, and
looking up toward heaven, He blessed the food, and breaking the
loaves He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to
the crowds.” (Matthew 14:19) For by the power of His hands, from
five loaves the Priest would feed five thousand. And from the hands
of the Temple, the priesthood was handed to His disciples. And from
the Word of the High Priest, one priest would give bread to one
thousand. (Mark 8:19) And now He has handed the priesthood to His
people. And each has been called as a priest for His kingdom. For
some will be handed one, and some will be handed five, and some
will be handed ten. And each will be rewarded for their hand in His
kingdom. But for those who have forsaken His name, their
inheritance shall be taken and handed to His servants. (Luke 19:12-
27) And that which is left shall be thrown in the fire. (Luke 3:17)

And there are five words which advance the Word and Truth. For
these five words are “Jesus Christ, Son of God Savior: Iesous Christos
Theou Yios Soter.” For Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who gave us
the Word and the Truth, in order to save His people from death. And
His people have been handed the priesthood, and have spread the
Word and the Truth. For the five words of His name is I X Ө Y Σ or
I C T Y S, which in Latin is translated to “fish”. For as He said,
“follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” (Mark
1:17)

142
But just as God’s hand created all of mankind, so shall His hand
destroy all of mankind. For the fifth trumpet shall warn of the terror
of His judgment. (Revelation 9:1) And when the fifth bowl is poured
out, a nuclear winter shall cover the earth. (Revelation 16:10) And the
earth shall be covered in darkness, and the land and all sea life shall
perish. And mankind will suffer from pestilence and famine, for
“they will gnaw on their tongues because of pain.” (Revelation 9:5;
16:10)

So remember the power of God’s righteous hand, for the hand of His
judgment is near. For His right hand shall redeem all His people. But
do not plead the “fifth”, for His right hand shall also destroy what is
left! “The Lord is at Your right hand; He shall execute kings in the
day of His wrath. He shall judge among the nations, He shall fill the
places with dead bodies. He shall execute the heads of many
countries. He shall drink of the brook by the wayside; therefore He
shall lift up the head.” (Psalms 110:5-7)

God’s covenants comes in ten

“So he was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he did not
eat bread or drink water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the
covenant, the Ten Commandments.” Exodus 34:28

God redeems mankind in ten

“The water decreased steadily until the tenth month; in the tenth
month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains
became visible.” Genesis 8:5

“Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, 'On the tenth of this
month they are each one to take a lamb for themselves, according to
their fathers' households, a lamb for each household.” Exodus 12:3

“On exactly the tenth day of this seventh month is the day of
atonement; it shall be a holy convocation for you, and you shall

144
humble your souls and present an offering by fire to the Lord.”
Leviticus 23:37

God’s Temple is held in His hands

“Moreover you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine
twisted linen and blue and purple and scarlet material; you shall make
them with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman.” Exodus 26:1

“For the width of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty
cubits with their ten pillars and their ten sockets.” Exodus 27:12

“Also in the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood,

each ten cubits high. Five cubits was the one wing of the cherub and
five cubits the other wing of the cherub; from the end of one wing to
the end of the other wing were ten cubits. The other cherub was ten
cubits; both the cherubim were of the same measure and the same
form.” 1 Kings 6:23-25

“Then he made the ten stands of bronze; the length of each stand was
four cubits and its width four cubits and its height three cubits.” 1
Kings 7:27

“He made ten basins of bronze, one basin held forty baths; each basin
was four cubits, and on each of the ten stands was one basin.” 1
Kings 7:38

“Now the leaders of the people lived in Jerusalem, but the rest of the
people cast lots to bring one out of ten to live in Jerusalem, the holy
city, while nine-tenths remained in the other cities.” Nehemiah 11:1

145
But only one of ten returned to give glory to God

“Surely all the men who have seen My glory and My signs which I
performed in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have put Me to the test
these ten times and have not listened to My voice” Number 14:22

“While He was on the way to Jerusalem, He was passing between

Samaria and Galilee. As He entered a village, ten leprous men who
stood at a distance met Him; and they raised their voices, saying,
‘Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!’ When He saw them, He said to
them, ‘Go and show yourselves to the priests.’ And as they were
going, they were cleansed. Now one of them, when he saw that he had
been healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice, and he
fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks to Him. And he was a
Samaritan. Then Jesus answered and said, ‘Were there not ten
cleansed? But the nine—where are they? Was no one found who
returned to give glory to God, except this foreigner?’ And He said to
him, ‘Stand up and go; your faith has made you well.’” Luke
17:11-19

“Thus says the Lord of hosts, ‘In those days ten men from all the
nations will grasp the garment of a Jew, saying, ‘Let us go with you,
for we have heard that God is with you.’’” Zechariah 8:23

146
 The Hands of God are the Hands of Justice

“For we know Him who said, ‘Vengeance is Mine, I will repay.’ And
again, ‘The Lord will judge His people.’ It is a terrifying thing to fall
into the hands of the living God.’” (Hebrews 10:30-31) For when the
hands of the Son come together, the fire and the judgment shall come.
For when the Son came as the Lamb, He said “all things have been
handed over to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is
except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone
to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.” (Luke 10:22) For when the
Lamb came to earth, all things were handed to Him from the Father.
And the Shepherd came for His people, for “My sheep hear My voice,
and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them,
and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My
hand.” (John 10:27-28) But most men are not of His fold, and the
hands of the Son shall return. But the Son shall return as the Lion,
“and I will set My glory among the nations; and all the nations will
see My judgment which I have executed and My hand which I have

147
laid on them.” (Ezekiel 39:21)

For ten represents the judgment of His hands. And the Roman
numeral for ten is X, which is formed by the union of two Vs. For as
we know V is the right hand of God. For the Son sits on the right hand
of the Father, and all things were handed from the Father to the Son.
For the Son and the Priest, was anointed on the thumb of His right
hand. “Moses slaughtered it and took some of its blood and put it on
the lobe of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand.”
(Leviticus 8:23)

And the Greek numeral for ten is iota (ι). And as we know, iota is the
power of the Spirit. For “on the other hand I am filled with power—
with the Spirit of the Lord”. (Micah 3:8) And the Roman symbol for
ten is a cross (X). And the Asian symbol for ten is a cross.

ナ
For when man crosses God covenants must be made, and the
covenants with mankind were in ten. For ten generations passed
between Adam and Noah, when God destroyed man in the flood.
And God made a covenant with Noah, not to destroy mankind with
water again. (Genesis 5:29) And ten generations passed between
Noah and Abram. And God made a covenant with Abraham, that he
would father the nations. (Genesis 11:27) And the covenant with
Israel was written on stone, by the hands of the Lord on Mount Sinai.
(Exodus 34:28) And the Lamb made a new covenant with His people,
for “He bore our sins in His body on the cross”. (1 Peter 2:24) And
“for this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that, since a
death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that

148
were committed under the first covenant, those who have been called
may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.” (Hebrews 9:15)

And in the year of 2010, the Son shall return to seal the last covenant.
But woe to those who are left behind, “for a covenant is valid only
when men are dead.” (Hebrews 9:17) And when the seventh seal is
opened and the seventh trumpet is blown, the final covenant shall be
sealed with the blood of mankind. “And the temple of God which is in
heaven was opened; and the ark of His covenant appeared in His
temple, and there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of
thunder and an earthquake and a great hailstorm.” (Revelation 11:19)

But God in His mercy redeems all men in ten. For during the flood, it
was “in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the
mountains became visible.” (Genesis 8:5) And it was on the tenth day
of the month of the Passover, that His people would sacrifice the lamb.
(Exodus 12:3) And it is on the tenth day of the month of Rosh
Hashanah, that the Day of Atonement was remembered. And it is on
the tenth day of the month, that His witness shall end with the
prophecy. “And I will grant authority to my two witnesses, and they
will prophesy for twelve hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”
(Revelation 11:3-4)

And the temple is held in the palms of His hands. For the tabernacle
was covered with ten curtains of linen. (Exodus 26:1) And the
tabernacle was held by ten pillars of gold. (Exodus 27:12) And the
cherubim of the covenant was ten by ten cubits. (1 Kings 6:23-25)
And in the inner courtyard were ten stands of bronze. (1 Kings 7:27)
And upon the ten stands were ten basins of bronze. (1 Kings 7:38)
And in the ten basins the priests washed the lamb. But when they
entered the land, only one of ten could enter the city. (Nehemiah 11:1)

149
But the people have failed to heed the Lord’s voice. “Surely all the
men who have seen My glory and My signs which I performed in
Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have put Me to the test these ten
times and have not listened to My voice”. (Number 14:22) And
through the hands of the Son, ten would receive the bread of His
Word, and ten would drink the blood of His sacrifice. Yet only one
out of ten would return to give glory to God. And that one the Lord
saved, for it was by FAITH that he was saved. (Luke 17:11-19) For
it is through faith that the Lamb gives us mercy. But on that day, only
one of ten will be saved by the Lamb, for “in those days ten men from
all the nations will grasp the garment of a Jew, saying, ‘Let us go with
you, for we have heard that God is with you.” (Zechariah 8:23) For
they shall not be judged by the Lamb, but by their lack of faith, He
shall send them away. For as He promised “I will declare to them, ‘I
never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE
LAWLESSNESS.’” (Matthew 7:23) And they shall return to the fire of
judgment. And they shall not be judged by the Lamb, but they shall
be judged by the Lion.

Lord brought you out from this place. And nothing leavened shall be
eaten. On this day in the month of Abib, you are about to go forth. It
shall be when the Lord brings you to the land of the Canaanite, the
Hittite, the Amorite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, which He swore to
your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you

unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the

nothing leavened shall be seen among you, nor shall any leaven be
seen among you in all your borders. You shall tell your son on that

fourteenth of the same month, and they rested on the fifteenth day
and made it a day of feasting and rejoicing.” Esther 9:18

Israel’s deliverance is celebrated on the fifteenth

“Then on the fifteenth day of the same month there is the Feast of
Unleavened Bread to the Lord; for seven days you shall eat
unleavened bread.” Leviticus 23:6

“Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘On the fifteenth of this seventh
month is the Feast of Booths for seven days to the Lord.’ ...On exactly
the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you have gathered in the
crops of the land, you shall celebrate the feast of the Lord for seven
days, with a rest on the first day and a rest on the eighth day.”
Leviticus 23:34,39

152
“Then Mordecai recorded these events, and he sent letters to all the
Jews who were in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, both near and
far, obliging them to celebrate the fourteenth day of the month Adar,
and the fifteenth day of the same month, annually, because on those
days the Jews rid themselves of their enemies, and it was a month
which was turned for them from sorrow into gladness and from
mourning into a holiday ; that they should make them days of feasting
and rejoicing and sending portions of food to one another and gifts to
the poor.” Esther 9:20-22

 The Hands of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit

Through the Works of Man

“God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created
him; male and female He created them. God blessed them; and God
said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue
it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and
over every living thing that moves on the earth.’” (Genesis 1:27-28)
Thus God handed His kingdom to mankind, that man may complete
His good works. For “You make him to rule over the works of Your
hands; You have put all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen, and
also the beasts of the field, the birds of the heavens and the fish of the
sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.” (Psalms 8:6-8)
But man in his ignorance and greed, has fornicated and destroyed the
inheritance of the earth. Thus mankind and the earth shall be
destroyed. “For the Lord has a day of vengeance, a year of
recompense for the cause of Zion. Its streams will be turned into
pitch, and its loose earth into brimstone, and its land will become
burning pitch. It will not be quenched night or day; its smoke will go
up forever. From generation to generation it will be desolate; none
will pass through it forever and ever.” (Isaiah 34:8-10)

But it was on the fifteenth day that God would deliver His people.
For it was on the fifteenth day of the month of Abib, that His people
were delivered from Egypt. (Exodus 13:3-10/Numbers 33:3-4) And it
was on the fifteenth day after the first month of their exile, that God
delivered them manna from heaven. (Exodus 16:1) And it was on the

154
fifteenth day of the month of Adar, that they celebrated their
deliverance from Persia. (Esther 9:18)

And it is on the fifteenth day that His people remember their

deliverance. For it is on the fifteenth day of the month of Nissan, that
they remember their deliverance from Egypt. (Passover and Feast of
Unleavened Bread) (Exodus 13:3-10/Leviticus 23:6) And it is on the
fifteenth day of the month of Tishri, that they remember their
deliverance from the desert. (Sukkot and Feast of Booths) (Leviticus
23:34,39) And it is on the fifteenth day of the month of Adar, that
they remember their deliverance from Persia. (Shushan Purim)
(Esther 9:20-22)

And the Son delivered mankind in fifteen. For He came down to

earth to teach us the Word, and was crucified and died on the cross.
And on the fifteenth day of the month, He descended into hell, that its
prisoners may be set free. For by the hands of His sacrifice, the Father
handed all things to the Son. For “the Father loves the Son and has
given all things into His hand.” (John 3:35) And now the Son sits at
the right hand of the Father, “He was received up into heaven and sat
down at the right hand of God.” (Mark 16:19) And the Son protects
His sheep from the evil one, for He holds their lives in His hand. “My
sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I
give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will
snatch them out of My hand.” (John 10:27-28) And His sheep have
been appointed by the Shepherd, for the Spirit works all things
through their hands. For “what is man, that You remember him? Or
the son of man, that You are concerned about him? You have made
him for a little while lower than the angels; You have crowned him
with glory and honor, and have appointed him over the works of Your
hands”. (Hebrews 2:6-7)

155
And when the works of the Spirit are complete, all things shall be
handed back to the Father. And when the last trumpet is blown, the
mystery of God shall be complete. “Then the angel whom I saw
standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to heaven,
and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven
and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and
the things in it, that there will be delay no longer, but in the days of
the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then the
mystery of God is finished, as He preached to His servants the
prophets.” (Revelation 10:5-7)

156
The Three Hands of the Trinity

“For there will be peace for the seed: the vine will yield its fruit, the
land will yield its produce and the heavens will give their dew; and I
will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things. It will
come about that just as you were a curse among the nations, O house
of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you that you may become
a blessing. Do not fear; let your hands be strong.” (Zechariah
8:12-13)

The Finger of Forgiveness
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 29, 2009

The fingers are an extension of the hands. And His people are the
fingers of God’s hands. For His people work to complete the works
of His hands. “When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your
fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained; what is
man that You take thought of him, and the son of man that You care
for him? Yet You have made him a little lower than God, and You
crown him with glory and majesty! You make him to rule over the
works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, all sheep
and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, the birds of the heavens and
the fish of the sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.”
(Psalms 8:3-8)

And the law was written by the finger of God. For “the LORD gave
me the two tablets of stone written by the finger of God; and on them
were all the words which the LORD had spoken with you at the
mountain from the midst of the fire on the day of the assembly. It
came about at the end of forty days and nights that the LORD gave me
the two tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant.” (Deuteronomy
9:10-12) And God asked that we bind His commandments on our
fingers. “My son, keep my words and treasure my commandments
within you. Keep my commandments and live, and my teaching as the
apple of your eye. Bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet
of your heart.” (Proverbs 7:1-3) But God warned that man should not

158
judge or point with his fingers. For “a worthless person, a wicked
man, is the one who walks with a perverse mouth, who winks with his
eyes, who signals with his feet, who points with his fingers.”
(Proverbs 6:12-13) But “if you remove the yoke from your midst, the
pointing of the finger and speaking wickedness, and if you give
yourself to the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then your
light will rise in darkness and your gloom will become like midday.”
(Isaiah 58:9-10)

For man’s sins would be forgiven by the finger of God. “The scribes
and the Pharisees brought a woman caught in adultery, and having set
her in the center of the court, they said to Him, ‘Teacher, this woman
has been caught in adultery, in the very act. Now in the Law Moses
commanded us to stone such women; what then do You say?’ They
were saying this, testing Him, so that they might have grounds for
accusing Him. But Jesus stooped down and with His finger wrote on
the ground. But when they persisted in asking Him, He straightened
up, and said to them, ‘He who is without sin among you, let him be
the first to throw a stone at her.’ Again He stooped down and wrote
on the ground. When they heard it, they began to go out one by one,
beginning with the older ones, and He was left alone, and the woman,
where she was, in the center of the court. Straightening up, Jesus said
to her, ‘Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?’ She said,
‘No one, Lord.’ And Jesus said, ‘I do not condemn you, either. Go.
From now on sin no more.’” (John 8:3-11)

And the finger is one of ten digits on our hands. And God asked His
people for one tenth of their possessions. For Jacob gave God one
tenth of his possessions. “So Jacob rose early in the morning, and
took the stone that he had put under his head and set it up as a pillar
and poured oil on its top. He called the name of that place Bethel;

159
however, previously the name of the city had been Luz. Then Jacob
made a vow, saying, ‘If God will be with me and will keep me on this
journey that I take, and will give me food to eat and garments to
wear, and I return to my father's house in safety , then the LORD will
be my God. ‘This stone, which I have set up as a pillar, will be God's
house, and of all that You give me I will surely give a tenth to You.’”
(Genesis 28:18-22) And His people were commanded to give one
tenth of their possessions. “Thus all the tithe of the land, of the seed
of the land or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD'S; it is holy to the
LORD. If, therefore, a man wishes to redeem part of his tithe, he shall
add to it one-fifth of it. For every tenth part of herd or flock,
whatever passes under the rod, the tenth one shall be holy to the
LORD.” (Leviticus 27:30-32) “You shall surely tithe all the produce
from what you sow, which comes out of the field every year. You
shall eat in the presence of the LORD your God, at the place where He
chooses to establish His name, the tithe of your grain, your new wine,
your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and your flock, so that you
may learn to fear the LORD your God always.” (Deuteronomy 14:22-
23) And even the priests were commanded to give one tenth of their
possessions. “Moreover, you shall speak to the Levites and say to
them, ‘When you take from the sons of Israel the tithe which I have
given you from them for your inheritance, then you shall present an
offering from it to the LORD, a tithe of the tithe.” (Numbers 18:26)

And God commanded that the priests place their finger on the altar.
“You shall take some of the blood of the bull and put it on the horns
of the altar with your finger; and you shall pour out all the blood at
the base of the altar.” (Exodus 29:12) And the priests were
commanded to cleanse all the people with the oil on their finger.
“The priest shall also take some of the log of oil, and pour it into his

160
left palm; the priest shall then dip his right-hand finger into the oil
that is in his left palm, and with his finger sprinkle some of the oil
seven times before the LORD. Of the remaining oil which is in his
palm, the priest shall put some on the right ear lobe of the one to be
cleansed, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his
right foot, on the blood of the guilt offering; while the rest of the oil
that is in the priest's palm, he shall put on the head of the one to be
cleansed. So the priest shall make atonement on his behalf before the
LORD. The priest shall next offer the sin offering and make
atonement for the one to be cleansed from his uncleanness. Then
afterward, he shall slaughter the burnt offering. The priest shall offer
up the burnt offering and the grain offering on the altar. Thus the
priest shall make atonement for him, and he will be clean.” (Leviticus
14:15-20) And His priests were commanded to atone for their sins
with blood on their finger. “Then he shall go out to the altar that is
before the LORD and make atonement for it, and shall take some of
the blood of the bull and of the blood of the goat and put it on the
horns of the altar on all sides. With his finger he shall sprinkle some
of the blood on it seven times and cleanse it, and from the impurities
of the sons of Israel consecrate it.” (Leviticus 16:18-19)

But the priests did not lift a finger for the people. For “the scribes and
the Pharisees have seated themselves in the chair of Moses; therefore
all that they tell you, do and observe, but do not do according to their
deeds; for they say things and do not do them. They tie up heavy
burdens and lay them on men's shoulders, but they themselves are
unwilling to move them with so much as a finger. But they do all
their deeds to be noticed by men; for they broaden their phylacteries
and lengthen the tassels of their garments. They love the place of
honor at banquets and the chief seats in the synagogues, and

161
respectful greetings in the market places, and being called Rabbi by
men. But do not be called Rabbi; for One is your Teacher, and you
are all brothers. Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is
your Father, He who is in heaven. Do not be called leaders; for One is
your Leader, that is, Christ. But the greatest among you shall be your
servant. Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever
humbles himself shall be exalted.” (Matthew 23:2-12)

And the day soon comes when God’s finger shall judge man. For
“your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God,
and your sins have hidden His face from you so that He does not
hear. For your hands are defiled with blood and your fingers with
iniquity; your lips have spoken falsehood, Your tongue mutters
wickedness. No one sues righteously and no one pleads honestly.
They trust in confusion and speak lies; they conceive mischief and
bring forth iniquity.” (Isaiah 59:2-4) And on that day man shall bow
to God’s finger. For “in that day man will have regard for his Maker
and his eyes will look to the Holy One of Israel. He will not have
regard for the altars, the work of his hands, nor will he look to that
which his fingers have made, even the Asherim and incense stands. In
that day their strong cities will be like forsaken places in the forest, or
like branches which they abandoned before the sons of Israel; and the
land will be a desolation.” (Isaiah 17:7-9)

 XXV
Running the Last Leg of the Race
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed April 3, 2009

The legs are the lower limbs of the body which are utilized for
running. For God gave man legs to run in this race. And all men
strive to win in this race, for “do you not know that those who run in
a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that
you may win. Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-
control in all things. They then do it to receive a perishable wreath,
but we an imperishable.” (1 Corinthians 9:24-25)

And God asked His people to run from the beginning. For God
touched Israel’s leg at the beginning. “Then Jacob was left alone, and
a man wrestled with him until daybreak. When he saw that he had not
prevailed against him, he touched the socket of his thigh; so the
socket of Jacob's thigh was dislocated while he wrestled with him.
Then he said, ‘Let me go, for the dawn is breaking.’ But he said, ‘I
will not let you go unless you bless me.’ So he said to him, ‘What is
your name?’ And he said, ‘Jacob.’ He said, ‘Your name shall no
longer be Jacob, but Israel; for you have striven with God and with
men and have prevailed.’ Then Jacob asked him and said, ‘Please tell
me your name.’ But he said, ‘Why is it that you ask my name?’ And
he blessed him there. So Jacob named the place Peniel, for he said, ‘I
have seen God face to face, yet my life has been preserved.’ Now the
sun rose upon him just as he crossed over Penuel, and he was limping
on his thigh. Therefore, to this day the sons of Israel do not eat the
sinew of the hip which is on the socket of the thigh, because he

164
touched the socket of Jacob's thigh in the sinew of the hip.” (Genesis
32:24-32)

And when the priests sacrificed the ram, its legs were burned on the
altar. For “the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and
arrange wood on the fire. Then Aaron's sons the priests shall arrange
the pieces, the head and the suet over the wood which is on the fire
that is on the altar. Its entrails, however, and its legs he shall wash
with water. And the priest shall offer up in smoke all of it on the altar
for a burnt offering, an offering by fire of a soothing aroma to the
LORD.” (Leviticus 1:7-9) And the legs of the bull were burned as an
offering. “The hide of the bull and all its flesh with its head and its
legs and its entrails and its refuse, that is, all the rest of the bull, he is
to bring out to a clean place outside the camp where the ashes are
poured out, and burn it on wood with fire; where the ashes are poured
out it shall be burned.” (Leviticus 4:11-12) And the legs of the lamb
were offered on the fire. “They shall eat the flesh that same night,
roasted with fire, and they shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter
herbs. Do not eat any of it raw or boiled at all with water, but rather
roasted with fire, both its head and its legs along with its entrails. And
you shall not leave any of it over until morning, but whatever is left of
it until morning, you shall burn with fire.” (Exodus 12:8-10)

And the Son offered Himself as the Lamb and an offering. For “He
was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and as a lamb before its shearer is
silent, so He opened not His mouth. In His humiliation His justice
was taken away, and who will declare His generation? For His life is
taken from the earth.” (Acts 8:32-33) But the legs of the Lamb were
not broken. For “the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and
of the other who was crucified with Him. But when they came to
Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.

165
 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and
immediately blood and water came out. And he who has seen has
testified, and his testimony is true; and he knows that he is telling the
truth, so that you may believe. For these things were done that the
Scripture should be fulfilled, ‘Not one of His bones shall be broken.’
And again another Scripture says, ‘They shall look on Him whom
they pierced.’” (John 19:32-37) And the leg of the Lamb shall return
with great speed. For “from His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that
with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a
rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God,
the Almighty. And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name
written, ‘KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.’” (Revelation
19:15-16)

For man has run in the destruction of Satan’s path. For “their feet run
to evil, and they hasten to shed innocent blood; their thoughts are
thoughts of iniquity, devastation and destruction are in their
highways. They do not know the way of peace, and there is no justice
in their tracks; they have made their paths crooked, whoever treads on
them does not know peace.” (Isaiah 59:7-8) But on that day the Lion
shall return, and his enemies shall run from the thicket. “Behold, one
will come up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan against a
perennially watered pasture; for in an instant I will make him run
away from it, and whoever is chosen I shall appoint over it. For who
is like Me, and who will summon Me into court? And who then is the
shepherd who can stand against Me?” (Jeremiah 49:19) And His
people shall run as a mighty army. For “their appearance is like the
appearance of horses; and like war horses, so they run. With a noise
as of chariots they leap on the tops of the mountains, like the
crackling of a flame of fire consuming the stubble, like a mighty

166
people arranged for battle. Before them the people are in anguish; all
faces turn pale. They run like mighty men, they climb the wall like
soldiers; and they each march in line, nor do they deviate from their
paths. They do not crowd each other, they march everyone in his path;
when they burst through the defenses, they do not break ranks. They
rush on the city, they run on the wall; they climb into the houses, they
enter through the windows like a thief. Before them the earth quakes,
the heavens tremble, the sun and the moon grow dark and the stars
lose their brightness. The LORD utters His voice before His army;
surely His camp is very great, for strong is he who carries out His
word. The day of the LORD is indeed great and very awesome, and
who can endure it?” (Joel 2:4-11)

For the Lord gave us legs to run in this race. And the word run is
derived from the Gothic word rinnan which means “to flow”. And
the living water which is the Word flows through us. For as the Word
said, “if anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who
believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘from his innermost being will
flow rivers of living water.’” (John 7:37-38) And the Word runs its
course with great strength, for the Word “is as a bridegroom coming
out of his chamber; it rejoices as a strong man to run his course. Its
rising is from one end of the heavens, and its circuit to the other end
of them; and there is nothing hidden from its heat.” (Psalms 19:5-6)
And the Word gives us strength to run in this race, “for by You I can
run upon a troop; and by my God I can leap over a wall.” (Psalms
18:29) And through the Word His angels solemnly pray:

167
 He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases
strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
And the young men shall utterly fall,
But those who wait on the LORD
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.

Isaiah 40:29-31

 XXVI
Men Have Refused to Wash Their Feet
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed April 6, 2009

The foot is the portion of the leg upon which all men stand. And the
Father established the foot upon which all men must stand. For the
covenant was established at the foot from the beginning. “So it came
about on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunder
and lightning flashes and a thick cloud upon the mountain and a very
loud trumpet sound, so that all the people who were in the camp
trembled. And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet
God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. Now Mount Sinai
was all in smoke because the LORD descended upon it in fire; and its
smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain
quaked violently. When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and
louder, Moses spoke and God answered him with thunder .The LORD
came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain; and the LORD
called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up. Then the
LORD spoke to Moses, ‘Go down, warn the people, so that they do not
break through to the LORD to gaze, and many of them perish. Also let
the priests who come near to the LORD consecrate themselves, or else
the LORD will break out against them.’” (Exodus 19:16-23) And the
twelve tribes were established at the foot from the beginning. “Moses
wrote down all the words of the LORD. Then he arose early in the
morning, and built an altar at the foot of the mountain with twelve
pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel. He sent young men of the sons

169
of Israel, and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls
as peace offerings to the LORD.” (Exodus 24:4-5)

And when His witness walked on the mountain, God commanded him
to remove his sandals from his feet. “When the LORD saw that he
turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and
said, ‘Moses, Moses!’ And he said, ‘Here I am.’ Then He said, ‘Do
not come near here; remove your sandals from your feet, for the place
on which you are standing is holy ground.’” (Exodus 3:4-5) And
when they walked on the land, God commanded His people to remove
their sandals. “Now it came about when Joshua was by Jericho, that
he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was standing
opposite him with his sword drawn in his hand, and Joshua went to
him and said to him, ‘Are you for us or for our adversaries?’ He said,
‘No; rather I indeed come now as captain of the host of the LORD.’
And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and bowed down, and said to
him, ‘What has my lord to say to his servant?’ The captain of the
LORD'S host said to Joshua, ‘Remove your sandals from your feet, for
the place where you are standing is holy.’ And Joshua did so.”
(Joshua 5:13-15)

And God commanded His people to wash their feet in His presence.
For the priests were commanded to wash their feet at the altar. “Aaron
and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet from it; when they
enter the tent of meeting, they shall wash with water, so that they will
not die; or when they approach the altar to minister, by offering up in
smoke a fire sacrifice to the LORD. So they shall wash their hands and
their feet, so that they will not die; and it shall be a perpetual statute
for them, for Aaron and his descendants throughout their
generations.” (Exodus 30:19-21) And the priests washed their feet
before entering the land. “So when the people set out from their tents

170
to cross the Jordan with the priests carrying the ark of the covenant
before the people, and when those who carried the ark came into the
Jordan, and the feet of the priests carrying the ark were dipped in the
edge of the water , the waters which were flowing down from above
stood and rose up in one heap, a great distance away at Adam, the city
that is beside Zarethan; and those which were flowing down toward
the sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. So the
people crossed opposite Jericho.” (Joshua 3:14-16)

And the Son taught His disciples how to wash their feet. For the Son
washed their feet as a servant. “He poured water into the basin, and
began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel with
which He was girded. So He came to Simon Peter. He said to Him,
‘Lord, do You wash my feet?’ Jesus answered and said to him, ‘What
I do you do not realize now, but you will understand hereafter.’ Peter
said to Him, ‘Never shall You wash my feet!’ Jesus answered him, ‘If
I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.’ Simon Peter said to
Him, ‘Lord, then wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my
head.’ Jesus said to him, ‘He who has bathed needs only to wash his
feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of
you.’ For He knew the one who was betraying Him; for this reason
He said, ‘Not all of you are clean.’ So when He had washed their feet,
and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to
them, ‘Do you know what I have done to you? You call Me Teacher
and Lord; and you are right, for so I am. If I then, the Lord and the
Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.
For I gave you an example that you also should do as I did to you.
Truly, truly, I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor is
one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.” (John 13:5-16)

171
And His witness cleared the way for the sandals of the Son. “As for
me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming
after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He
will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing fork is
in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He
will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with
unquenchable fire.” (Matthew 3:11-12)

And the Lord would come and put sandals on their feet. For “the
father said to his slaves, ‘Quickly bring out the best robe and put it on
him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet; and bring the
fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat and celebrate; for this son of mine
was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.’
And they began to celebrate.” (Luke 15:22-24) And the Son gave His
disciples sandals for their feet. For “He said to them, ‘When I sent
you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack
anything, did you?’ They said, ‘No, nothing.’” (Luke 22:35) And
the Son taught them how to walk the narrow path. And “as you go,
preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand. ‘Heal the sick,
raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Freely you
received, freely give. Do not acquire gold, or silver, or copper for
your money belts, or a bag for your journey, or even two coats , or
sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worthy of his support. And
whatever city or village you enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and
stay at his house until you leave that city. As you enter the house, give
it your greeting. If the house is worthy, give it your blessing of peace.
But if it is not worthy, take back your blessing of peace. Whoever
does not receive you, nor heed your words, as you go out of that
house or that city, shake the dust off your feet. Truly I say to you, it

172
will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day
of judgment than for that city.” (Matthew 10:5-15)

For the Lord guides our feet onto the righteous path. For “the path of
the righteous is like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter
until the full day. The way of the wicked is like darkness; they do not
know over what they stumble.” (Proverbs 4:18-19) For the Son
guides our feet onto the righteous path. For as the Son taught us,
“Listen to this! Behold, the sower went out to sow; as he was sowing,
some seed fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate it up.
Other seed fell on the rocky ground where it did not have much soil;
and immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of soil. And
after the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it
withered away. Other seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns came
up and choked it, and it yielded no crop. Other seeds fell into the
good soil, and as they grew up and increased, they yielded a crop and
produced thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold.” (Mark 4:3-8)

But man has refused to wash His feet before God, and man has
refused to remove his sandals before God. For “their feet run to evil,
and they hasten to shed innocent blood; their thoughts are thoughts of
iniquity, devastation and destruction are in their highways. They do
not know the way of peace, and there is no justice in their tracks; they
have made their paths crooked, whoever treads on them does not
know peace.” (Isaiah 59:7-8)

But the day will soon come when His feet return to stand before men.
For “behold, a day is coming for the LORD when the spoil taken from
you will be divided among you. For I will gather all the nations
against Jerusalem to battle, and the city will be captured, the houses
plundered, the women ravished and half of the city exiled, but the rest

173
of the people will not be cut off from the city. Then the LORD will go
forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of
battle. In that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is
in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split
in its middle from east to west by a very large valley, so that half of
the mountain will move toward the north and the other half toward the
south. You will flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of
the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you will flee just as you fled
before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the
LORD, my God, will come, and all the holy ones with Him!”
(Zechariah 14:1-5)

The Skin is Just a Covering
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed April 10, 2009

The skin is the covering which covers and protects our body. And
skin is derived from the Nordic word skinn which means “hide”.
And when man ate from the fruit of good and evil, they would hide
from the presence of God. “Then the eyes of both of them were
opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig
leaves together and made themselves loin coverings. They heard the
sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day,
and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the
LORD God among the trees of the garden.” (Genesis 3:7-9) For they
were stark in the nakedness of their sin. But our bodies are covered
with skin, to protect us from the starkness of this world. And God
covered mankind with skin from the beginning, to protect us from the
starkness of this world. “The LORD God made garments of skin for
Adam and his wife, and clothed them. Then the LORD God said,
‘Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil;
and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of
life, and eat, and live forever — therefore the LORD God sent him out
from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he was
taken.’” (Genesis 3:21-23)

And God made a covering for His people. For the tent of meeting
was covered with skins. “You shall make a covering for the tent of
rams’ skins dyed red and a covering of porpoise skins above.”
(Exodus 26:14) And God covered our skin with life and

175
lovingkindness For “did You not pour me out like milk and curdle
me like cheese; clothe me with skin and flesh, and knit me together
with bones and sinews? You have granted me life and lovingkindness;
and Your care has preserved my spirit.” (Job 10:10-12)

And God gives the provision of skin to all of mankind. For when
Hagar and Ishmael were left in the desert, God filled their skins with
His living water. “God said to Abraham, ‘Do not be distressed
because of the lad and your maid; whatever Sarah tells you, listen to
her, for through Isaac your descendants shall be named. And of the
son of the maid I will make a nation also, because he is your
descendant. So Abraham rose early in the morning and took bread and
a skin of water and gave them to Hagar, putting them on her shoulder,
and gave her the boy, and sent her away. And she departed and
wandered about in the wilderness of Beersheba. When the water in
the skin was used up, she left the boy under one of the bushes. Then
she went and sat down opposite him, about a bowshot away, for she
said, ‘Do not let me see the boy die.’ And she sat opposite him, and
lifted up her voice and wept. God heard the lad crying; and the angel
of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, ‘What is the
matter with you, Hagar? Do not fear, for God has heard the voice of
the lad where he is. Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him by the hand,
for I will make a great nation of him.’ Then God opened her eyes and
she saw a well of water; and she went and filled the skin with water
and gave the lad a drink.” (Genesis 21:12-19)

But the greatest provision was for His firstfruits. For as the Groom
promised, “no one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and puts
it on an old garment; otherwise he will both tear the new, and the
piece from the new will not match the old. And no one puts new wine
into old wineskins; otherwise the new wine will burst the skins and it

176
will be spilled out, and the skins will be ruined. But new wine must
be put into fresh wineskins. And no one, after drinking old wine
wishes for new; for he says, ‘The old is good enough.’” (Luke 5:36-
39) And now the Lord has covered the skin of His firstfruits from the
ashes. “Prophesy over these bones and say to them, ‘O dry bones,
hear the word of the LORD.’ Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones,
‘Behold, I will cause breath to enter you that you may come to life. I
will put sinews on you, make flesh grow back on you, cover you with
skin and put breath in you that you may come alive; and you will
know that I am the LORD.’ So I prophesied as I was commanded; and
as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, a rattling; and the
bones came together, bone to its bone. And I looked, and behold,
sinews were on them, and flesh grew and skin covered them; but there
was no breath in them. Then He said to me, ‘Prophesy to the breath,
prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, ‘Thus says the Lord
GOD, ‘Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these
slain, that they come to life.’’ So I prophesied as He commanded me,
and the breath came into them, and they came to life and stood on
their feet, an exceedingly great army.” (Ezekiel 37:4-10)

Yet the skin is only skin deep. For even Satan knew that man’s heart
was just skin deep. For when Job received God’s blessings, “Satan
answered the LORD and said, ‘Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has
he will give for his life. However, put forth Your hand now, and
touch his bone and his flesh; he will curse You to Your face.’” (Job
2:4-5) And from this man learned that though our skin may burn, at
the end our Redeemer shall stand. “As for me, I know that my
Redeemer lives, and at the last He will take His stand on the earth.
Even after my skin is destroyed, yet from my flesh I shall see God.”
(Job 19:25-26)

177
For the skin is a just remnant of man’s sin in the Garden. And the
hide of the bull was burnt as a sin offering. “But the flesh of the bull
and its hide and its refuse, you shall burn with fire outside the camp;
it is a sin offering.” (Exodus 29:14) And the hide of the heifer was
burnt as an offering. “Then the heifer shall be burned in his sight; its
hide and its flesh and its blood, with its refuse, shall be burned. The
priest shall take cedar wood and hyssop and scarlet material and cast
it into the midst of the burning heifer. The priest shall then wash his
clothes and bathe his body in water, and afterward come into the
camp, but the priest shall be unclean until evening.” (Numbers 19:5-
7) And the skin of the offering was cut into pieces. “He shall then
skin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces. The sons of Aaron the
priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.”
(Leviticus 1:6-7)

For God has adorned man with skin of great beauty. “’I also clothed
you with embroidered cloth and put sandals of porpoise skin on your
feet; and I wrapped you with fine linen and covered you with silk. I
adorned you with ornaments, put bracelets on your hands and a
necklace around your neck. I also put a ring in your nostril, earrings
in your ears and a beautiful crown on your head. Thus you were
adorned with gold and silver, and your dress was of fine linen, silk
and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour, honey and oil; so you were
exceedingly beautiful and advanced to royalty. Then your fame went
forth among the nations on account of your beauty, for it was perfect
because of My splendor which I bestowed on you,’ declares the Lord
GOD.” But man has covered his flesh with the skin of a harlot. “ ‘But
you trusted in your beauty and played the harlot because of your
fame, and you poured out your harlotries on every passer-by who
might be willing.’” (Ezekiel16:10-16)

178
And mankind has worn the skin of deception. For Jacob stole Esau’s
inheritance with the skin of a goat. “Then Rebekah took the best
garments of Esau her elder son, which were with her in the house, and
put them on Jacob her younger son. And she put the skins of the
young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck. She also
gave the savory food and the bread, which she had made, to her son
Jacob. Then he came to his father and said, ‘My father.’ And he said,
‘Here I am. Who are you, my son?’ Jacob said to his father, ‘I am
Esau your firstborn; I have done as you told me. Get up, please, sit
and eat of my game, that you may bless me.’” (Genesis 27:15-20)

And mankind has covered his skin with injustice. “Hear now, heads
of Jacob and rulers of the house of Israel. Is it not for you to know
justice? You who hate good and love evil, who tear off their skin
from them and their flesh from their bones, who eat the flesh of my
people, strip off their skin from them, break their bones and chop
them up as for the pot and as meat in a kettle. Then they will cry out
to the LORD, but He will not answer them. Instead, He will hide His
face from them at that time because they have practiced evil deeds.”
(Micah 3:1-4)

Thus the Lord shall hide His face from mankind, and He shall burn
man’s skin to the bone. For on that day, “I will hide My face from
them, I will see what their end shall be; for they are a perverse
generation, sons in whom is no faithfulness. They have made Me
jealous with what is not God; they have provoked Me to anger with
their idols. So I will make them jealous with those who are not a
people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation, for a fire is
kindled in My anger, and burns to the lowest part of Sheol, and
consumes the earth with its yield, and sets on fire the foundations of
the mountains.” (Deuteronomy 32:20-22)

The Foreskin of the Flesh
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed March 12, 2009

God commanded that man remove the foreskin from his flesh. And
God commanded that the forefathers remove the foreskin from their
flesh. And this was a sign of a covenant with His people. For “God
said further to Abraham, ‘Now as for you, you shall keep My
covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their
generations. This is My covenant, which you shall keep, between Me
and you and your descendants after you: every male among you shall
be circumcised. And you shall be circumcised in the flesh of your
foreskin, and it shall be the sign of the covenant between Me and you.
And every male among you who is eight days old shall be
circumcised throughout your generations, a servant who is born in the
house or who is bought with money from any foreigner, who is not of
your descendants. A servant who is born in your house or who is
bought with your money shall surely be circumcised; thus shall My
covenant be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant. But an
uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his
foreskin, that person shall be cut off from his people; he has broken
My covenant.” (Genesis 17:9-14) And the forefathers of Islam were
circumcised in the flesh. “Then Abraham took Ishmael his son, and
all the servants who were born in his house and all who were bought
with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's household,
and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the very same day, as
God had said to him. Now Abraham was ninety-nine years old when
he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. And Ishmael his son

180
was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his
foreskin. In the very same day Abraham was circumcised, and
Ishmael his son. All the men of his household, who were born in the
house or bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with
him.” (Genesis 17:23-27) And the forefathers of Israel were
circumcised in the flesh. For “He gave him the covenant of
circumcision; and so Abraham became the father of Isaac, and
circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac became the father of
Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs. “(Acts 7:8)

And the foreskin of the flesh is the foreskin of man’s heart. For God
asked men to remove the foreskin from their hearts. For “behold, to
the LORD your God belong heaven and the highest heavens, the earth
and all that is in it. Yet on your fathers did the LORD set His affection
to love them, and He chose their descendants after them, even you
above all peoples, as it is this day. So circumcise your heart, and
stiffen your neck no longer. For the LORD your God is the God of
gods and the Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome
God who does not show partiality nor take a bribe.” (Deuteronomy
10:14-17) “Break up your fallow ground, and do not sow among
thorns. Circumcise yourselves to the LORD and remove the foreskins
of your heart, men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, or else My
wrath will go forth like fire and burn with none to quench it, because
of the evil of your deeds.” (Jeremiah 4:3-4) But though they have
been circumcised in the flesh, they have refused to be circumcised in
the heart. And “’behold, the days are coming,’ declares the LORD,
‘that I will punish all who are circumcised and yet uncircumcised—
Egypt and Judah, and Edom and the sons of Ammon, and Moab and
all those inhabiting the desert who clip the hair on their temples; for

181
all the nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are
uncircumcised of heart.’” (Jeremiah 9:25-26)

For circumcision is derived from the Latin word circumcisus which

means “to cut in a circle”. For it is God who cut the earth’s circle at
the beginning. “For do you not know? Have you not heard? Has it
not been declared to you from the beginning? Have you not
understood from the foundations of the earth? It is He who sits above
the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, who
stretches out the heavens like a curtain and spreads them out like a
tent to dwell in.” (Isaiah 40:21-22) And all men must travel in a
circle to the Father. (Addendum 3: Christ is the Narrow Gate) But
many have refused to circumcise their hearts to the Lord. And on that
day, all men shall be circumcised by the Word, for the Word shall cut
all men’s hearts with His sword. For “‘it will be in that day,’
declares the LORD, ‘that I will cut off your horses from among you
and destroy your chariots. I will also cut off the cities of your land
and tear down all your fortifications. I will cut off sorceries from your
hand, and you will have fortune-tellers no more. I will cut off your
carved images and your sacred pillars from among you, so that you
will no longer bow down to the work of your hands. I will root out
your Asherim from among you and destroy your cities. And I will
execute vengeance in anger and wrath on the nations which have not
obeyed.’” (Micah 5:10-15)

For foreskin is derived from the English word fore which means
“before”. For God knew before, that He would circumcise the
foreskin of men’s hearts. For “the LORD your God will circumcise
your heart and the heart of your descendants, to love the LORD your
God with all your heart and with all your soul, so that you may live.”
(Deuteronomy 30:6-7)

182
 For foreskin is the flesh which covers men’s hearts.

But because man has fornicated with the flesh,

The Lord shall cut the foreskin of all flesh with His sword.

The skin covers man’s flesh, but when the skin is broken it forms into
sores and boils. And the Lord inflected Egypt with a plague of sores
and boils. “Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, ‘Take for
yourselves handfuls of soot from a kiln, and let Moses throw it toward
the sky in the sight of Pharaoh. It will become fine dust over all the
land of Egypt, and will become boils breaking out with sores on man
and beast through all the land of Egypt. So they took soot from a kiln,
and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses threw it toward the sky, and it
became boils breaking out with sores on man and beast. The
magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the
boils were on the magicians as well as on all the Egyptians.” (Exodus
9:8-11) And Satan smote Job with boils among ashes. “Then Satan
went out from the presence of the LORD and smote Job with sore boils
from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head. And he took a

184
potsherd to scrape himself while he was sitting among the ashes.”
(Job 2:7-8) And God promised that He would curse man with boils.
“The LORD will strike you on the knees and legs with sore boils, from
which you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to the crown
of your head. The LORD will bring you and your king, whom you set
over you, to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known,
and there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone. You shall
become a horror, a proverb, and a taunt among all the people where
the LORD drives you.” (Deuteronomy 28:35-37)

And the boil of a leper would remain, for the leper would be left with
a mark on his skin. “When the body has a boil on its skin and it is
healed, and in the place of the boil there is a white swelling or a
reddish-white, bright spot, then it shall be shown to the priest; and the
priest shall look, and behold, if it appears to be lower than the skin,
and the hair on it has turned white, then the priest shall pronounce
him unclean; it is the infection of leprosy, it has broken out in the
boil.” (Leviticus 13:18-23) And the leper was marked by the priest
as unclean. “As for the leper who has the infection, his clothes shall
be torn, and the hair of his head shall be uncovered, and he shall cover
his mustache and cry, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’ He shall remain unclean
all the days during which he has the infection; he is unclean. He shall
live alone; his dwelling shall be outside the camp.” (Leviticus 13:45-
46)

And leprosy is derived from the Greek root lepra which means
“scales of a fish”. Yet the Son asked His servants to be fishers of
men. “As He was going along by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon
and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea; for they
were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, ‘Follow Me, and I will make
you become fishers of men.” (Mark 1:16-17) And the Son made the

185
scales of leprosy clean. “And a leper came to Jesus, beseeching Him
and falling on his knees before Him, and saying, ‘If You are willing,
You can make me clean. Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out
His hand and touched him, and said to him, ‘I am willing; be
cleansed.’ Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed.”
(Mark 1:40-42)

But man has refused to have his sins cleaned. “For thus says the
LORD, ‘Your wound is incurable and your injury is serious. There is
no one to plead your cause; no healing for your sore, no recovery for
you.” (Jeremiah 30:12-13) And on that day, the nuclear weapons will
drone, and man’s skin shall be burned to the bone. “So the first angel
went and poured out his bowl on the earth; and it became a loathsome
and malignant sore on the people who had the mark of the beast and
who worshiped his image.” (Revelation 16:2) And the winter will
make man give flight, and will cause man’s hunger to bite. “Then the
fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his
kingdom became darkened; and they gnawed their tongues because of
pain, and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains
and their sores; and they did not repent of their deeds.” (Revelation
16:10-11)

Life and Death
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed April 14, 2009

From the dust of the earth, God breathed life into man. For “the
LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. The LORD
God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed
the man whom He had formed.” (Genesis 2:7-8) And in the Garden
from the ground are two trees: the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil, and the tree of eternal life. “Out of the ground the LORD God
caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for
food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil.” (Genesis 2:9) And man was
commanded not to eat from the tree of knowledge. “The LORD God
commanded the man, saying, ‘From any tree of the garden you may
eat freely; but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you
shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die.’”
(Genesis 2:16-17)

But man chose to eat from the tree of good and evil. “Now the
serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD
God had made. And he said to the woman, ‘Indeed, has God said,
‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden'?’ The woman said to
the serpent, ‘From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; but
from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has
said, ‘You shall not eat from it or touch it, or you will die.’ The

187
serpent said to the woman, ‘You surely will not die!’ For God knows
that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will
be like God, knowing good and evil.’ When the woman saw that the
tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that
the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from its fruit and
ate; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate. Then the
eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were
naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loin
coverings.” (Genesis 3:1-7) Thus man would be sent from the
Garden. For before man can eat from the tree of life, man must come
to know death. “Then the LORD God said, ‘Behold, the man has
become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might
stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and
live forever’— therefore the LORD God sent him out from the garden
of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he was taken. So He
drove the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden He stationed
the cherubim and the flaming sword which turned every direction to
guard the way to the tree of life.” (Genesis 3:22-24)

For man chose to eat from the tree of knowledge, which is the tree of
good and evil. And knowledge is derived from the Greek root
gnostikos which means “to know”. And good is derived from English
root god which means “God”. For all men should desire to know
what is good, and all men should desire to know who is God. But man
has chosen to know what is evil. For evil is derived from the Hebrew
root ‫ ַעֹר‏‬which means “calamity”. And man has chosen his own
calamity which is death. And all men must come to know death, for
death is the dust to which all must return. For “cursed is the ground
because of you; in toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. Both
thorns and thistles it shall grow for you; and you will eat the plants of

188
the field; by the sweat of your face You will eat bread, till you return
to the ground, because from it you were taken; for you are dust, and to
dust you shall return.” (Genesis 3:17-19)

But by God’s goodness and life, all men have the choice to know
God. For the purpose of life is the knowledge of good. For the
purpose of life is the knowledge of God. For God created all things of
this world which is good. For God created light out of darkness, and
God saw that it was good. “God said, ‘Let there be light’; and there
was light. God saw that the light was good; and God separated the
light from the darkness.” (Genesis 1:3-4) “And God called the dry
land earth, and the gathering of the waters He called seas; and God
saw that it was good.” (Genesis 1:10) And “the earth brought forth
vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit
with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.”
(Genesis 1:12-13) And “God made the two great lights, the greater
light to govern the day, and the lesser light to govern the night; He
made the stars also. God placed them in the expanse of the heavens to
give light on the earth, and to govern the day and the night, and to
separate the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good.”
(Genesis 1:16-18) And “God created the great sea monsters and
every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed after
their kind, and every winged bird after its kind; and God saw that it
was good.” (Genesis 1:21) And “God made the beasts of the earth
after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that
creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good.”
(Genesis 1:25) “Then God said, ‘Let Us make man in Our image,
according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea
and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth,
and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’ God created

189
man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and
female He created them. God blessed them; and God said to them,
‘Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule
over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every
living thing that moves on the earth.’ Then God said, ‘Behold, I have
given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the
earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for
you; and to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to
every thing that moves on the earth which has life, I have given every
green plant for food’; and it was so. God saw all that He had made,
and behold, it was very good.” (Genesis 1:26-31)

And God taught all men how to love Him, with all heart, soul and
mind for our good. “Now, Israel, what does the LORD your God
require from you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all His
ways and love Him, and to serve the LORD your God with all your
heart and with all your soul, and to keep the LORD'S commandments
and His statutes which I am commanding you today for your good.”
(Deuteronomy 10:12-13) And the Son would teach man, it is God
who is good. For as He would say, “Why do you call Me good? No
one is good except God alone.” (Mark 10:18-19) And by His own
life, He taught us to do what is good. For “if you do good to those
who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do
the same. If you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what
credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive
back the same amount. But love your enemies, and do good, and
lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and
you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to
ungrateful and evil men. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.”
(Luke 6:33-36)

190
But man would choose what is evil, thus man paid the penalty which
is death. But though death may claim a man’s body, it is the Father
who can claim all men’s souls. For “behold, all souls are Mine; the
soul of the father as well as the soul of the son is Mine. The soul who
sins will die.” (Ezekiel 18:4) For as the Son taught us of the Father,
“do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but
rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell”?
(Matthew 10:28) For some have lost their life in the flesh, and have
given their souls to the Father. For “if anyone wishes to come after
Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. For
whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life
for My sake will find it.” But many have kept their lives in the flesh,
and have given their souls to be judged. “For what will it profit a man
if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man
give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of Man is going to come in
the glory of His Father with His angels, and WILL THEN REPAY EVERY
MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS. Truly I say to you, there are some of
those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the
Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” (Matthew 16:24-28)

For the judgment of the second death draws near. For as the Son
said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming and now is, when
the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear
will live. For just as the Father has life in Himself, even so He gave to
the Son also to have life in Himself; and He gave Him authority to
execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man. Do not marvel at
this; for an hour is coming, in which all who are in the tombs will
hear His voice, and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to
a resurrection of life, those who committed the evil deeds to a
resurrection of judgment.” (John 5:25-29) And all men must pay for

191
their evil, through the fire and judgment of death. For as the prophecy
says, “then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from
whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found
for them. And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before
the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened,
which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things
which were written in the books, according to their deeds. And the sea
gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the
dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them
according to their deeds. Then death and Hades were thrown into the
lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone 's
name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the
lake of fire.” (Revelation 20:11-15)

For all men that are EVIL, must pay the final death, so that all men
may LIVE. For “then comes the end, when He hands over the
kingdom to the God and Father, when He has abolished all rule and
all authority and power. For He must reign until He has put all His
enemies under His feet. The last enemy that will be abolished is
death.” (1 Corinthians 15:24-26) And when death is finally
conquered, all men shall eat from the tree of eternal life. “Then he
showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from
the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street. On
either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of
fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for
the healing of the nations. There will no longer be any curse; and the
throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants
will serve Him; they will see His face, and His name will be on their
foreheads. And there will no longer be any night; and they will not
have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the

192
Lord God will illumine them; and they will reign forever and ever.
And he said to me, ‘These words are faithful and true’; and the Lord,
the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show to His
bond-servants the things which must soon take place. And behold, I
am coming quickly. Blessed is he who heeds the words of the
prophecy of this book.” (Revelation 22:1-7)

The Trinity of God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
The Trinity of Man: Heart, Soul, and Mind

The Hope from the Father is in our Souls

To Andrew the Prophet
Completed November 16, 2007

You shall love the Lord your God with all your
heart, and with all your soul, and with all your
mind.
Matthew 22:37

Our souls are sustained by the Father, the Water of eternal life

“So also it is written, ‘The first man, Adam, became soul.’ The last
Adam became a life-giving spirit. However, the spiritual is not first,
but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man is from the earth,
earthly; the second man is from heaven. As is the earthy, so also are
those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, so also are those who are

194
heavenly. Just as we have borne the image of the earthy, we will also
bear the image of the heavenly.” 1 Corinthians 15:45-49

“Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul.”

Psalms 54:4

“O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; my soul thirsts
for You, my flesh yearns for You, in a dry and weary land where
there is no water.” Psalms 63:1

“As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants for You, O
God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God; when shall I come
and appear before God?” Psalms 42:1-2

Satan, through the flesh, enslaves our souls

“O Lord my God, in You I have taken refuge; save me from all those
who pursue me, and deliver me, or he will tear my soul like a lion,
dragging me away, while there is none to deliver.” Psalms 7:1-2

“Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; my flesh also will

dwell securely. For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol.” Psalms
16:9-10

“Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul;
but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”
Matthew 10:28

195
“For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits
his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew
16:25-26

“Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly

lusts which wage war against the soul.” 1 Peter 2:11

The gift from the Father is hope

“My soul, wait in silence for God only, for my hope is from Him. He
only is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be
shaken.” Psalms 62:5-6

“I wait for the Lord, my soul does wait, and in His word do I hope.”
Psalms 130:5

“’The Lord is my portion,’ says my soul, ‘Therefore I have hope in

Him.’ The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the person who
seeks Him.” Lamentations 3:24-25

“This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and
steadfast and one which enters within the veil, where Jesus has
entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever
according to the order of Melchizedek.” Hebrews 6:19-20

196
Our only hope is in God

“Hear, O Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one! You shall love
the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with
all your might.” Deuteronomy 6:4-5

“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart your soul your
mind” Matthew 22:37

“Who is the man who fears the Lord? He will instruct him in the way
he should choose. His soul will abide in prosperity, and his
descendants will inherit the land.” Psalms 25:12-13

“And I will say to my soul, ‘Soul, you have many goods laid up for
many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry.’ But
God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of
you; and now who will own what you have prepared?’ So is the man
who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.” Luke
12:19-21

“The Lord redeems the soul of His servants, and none of those who
take refuge in Him will be condemned.” Psalms 34:22

All souls will soon know that He is God

“For the kingdom is the Lord's and He rules over the nations. All the
prosperous of the earth will eat and worship, all those who go down to

197
the dust will bow before Him, even he who cannot keep his soul
alive.” Psalms 22:28-29

“Too long has my soul had its dwelling with those who hate peace. I
am for peace, but when I speak, they are for war.” Psalms 120:6-7

“My soul, my soul ! I am in anguish! Oh, my heart! My heart is

pounding in me; I cannot be silent, Because you have heard, O my
soul, The sound of the trumpet, The alarm of war.” Jeremiah 4:19

“At night my soul longs for You, Indeed, my spirit within me seeks
You diligently; for when the earth experiences Your judgments. The
inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.” Isaiah 26:9

“Does the Lord take delight in thousands of rams, in ten thousand

rivers of oil? Shall I present my firstborn for my rebellious acts, the
fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?” Micah 6:7

He will redeem the souls of mankind

“How lovely are Your dwelling places, O Lord of hosts! My soul

longed and even yearned for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my
flesh sing for joy to the living God.” Psalms 84:1-2

“I will rejoice greatly in the Lord, My soul will exult in my God; for
He has clothed me with garments of salvation, He has wrapped me
with a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a
garland, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.” Isaiah 61:10

198
“Moreover, I will make My dwelling among you, and My soul will
not reject you. I will also walk among you and be your God, and you
shall be My people.” Leviticus 26:11-12

199
 Our Souls Hope to Return to the Father

“The first man, Adam, became soul.” (1 Corinthians 15:45) And as

the soul of the first man was created by the Father, so were our souls
created by the Father. For we presently bear the image of the earthly,
but soon will “bear the image of the heavenly.” (1 Corinthians 15:49)
For the Father is the sustenance of our souls, for He is the living water
of Life. (Psalms 54:4) And this world is a dry and desolate place, and
our souls long and thirst for His living water. (Psalms 63:1) And the
souls of the faithful have longed for this day, and the souls of His
promise do earnestly pray, “my soul pants for You, O God. My soul
thirsts for God, for the living God; when shall I come and appear
before God?” (Psalms 42:1-2)

And who will claim our souls? For the desires of the flesh, are the
shackles of Satan, and all hope is lost, to those whom he claims. And
the psalmist took refuge in the Father, knowing that Satan has the
power to claim, his body and soul and drag him away. (Psalms 7:1-2)
For where Satan rules in the depths of his lair, there is no hope, only
loss and despair. (Psalms 16:9-10) And why do we not heed the
words of the Lord? “Do not fear those who kill the body but are
unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both
soul and body in hell.” (Matthew 10:28) And what gain is there, if
you gain the world but lose your soul? (Matthew 16:25-26) Thus we
must be strangers to this heathen world, and fight the desires which
endanger our souls. (1 Peter 2:11)

And who can save our souls? There is only one, for our hope lies in
our redemption through the Father. “For my hope is from Him. He

200
only is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be
shaken.” (Psalms 62:5-6) And we patiently wait for His promises,
and hope to return to our Creator. (Psalms 130:5) Then He will give
us our portion, for He is good to those who have patiently waited for
Him, and to those who have sought Him. (Lamentations 3:24-25)
And our portion shall be great indeed, for Christ has come as the High
Priest, and now we may pass through the veil, and receive our
inheritance from our heavenly Father. (Hebrews 6:19-20)

And what does the Father ask of us? The world has forgotten His first
commandment, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart
and with all your soul and with all your might.” (Deuteronomy 6:4-5 /
Matthew 22:37) For we must fear the Lord our God, and strive to
inherit eternal life with the Father. (Psalms 25:12-13) For it is the
Father and not earth’s ruler, who can cast our souls to hell, or raise
our souls to eternal life. (Matthew 10:28) And we must place our
hope “in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where
thieves do not break in or steal.” (Matthew 6:20) For if we are not
rich towards God, then why should He be rich towards us? (Luke
12:19-21) But to those who put their hope in the Father, their souls
shall be redeemed by the Father, “and none of those who take refuge
in Him will be condemned.” (Psalms 34:22)

And now the time has come, when all will know that He is Lord, for
He will come to claim His kingdom. “For the kingdom is the Lord's
and He rules over the nations. All the prosperous of the earth will eat
and worship, all those who go down to the dust will bow before Him,
even he who cannot keep his soul alive.” (Psalms 22:28-29) For His
people have patiently endured, those who breed violence and war.
(Psalms 120:6-7) And when He returns in the clouds, the trumpets
shall warn of that fateful day. (Jeremiah 4:19) And when the

201
judgment comes, the world will know of His justice and
righteousness. (Isaiah 26:9) And the world will wonder, “Shall I
present my firstborn for my rebellious acts, the fruit of my body for
the sin of my soul?” (Micah 6:7) NO. He no longer desires the fruit
of your body, for each man will be judged by his own works. And
now He asks for the blood of your body for the sins of your soul.

But when the fire of the judgment is complete, we stand assured of

the redemption that awaits. For lovely are the dwelling places of the
courts of God. (Psalms 84:1-2) And His people will be adorned, with
garments of salvation and robes of righteousness. And all will rejoice
in His kingdom, for as the Father promised, “I will make My dwelling
among you, and My soul will not reject you. I will also walk among
you and be your God, and you shall be My people.” (Leviticus
26:11-12)

 The Spirit of Man is His Heart
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed November 13, 2007

You shall love the Lord your God with all

your heart, with all your soul, and with
all your mind.
Matthew 22:37

Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the

Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your
God with all your heart, with all your
soul, and with all your strength.
Deuteronomy 6:4-5

The heart of man is inherently evil

“But those things which proceed out of the mouth come from the
heart, and they defile a man. For out of the heart proceed evil

203
thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness,
blasphemies.” Matthew 15:18-19

“The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God.’ They are corrupt,
they have done abominable works, there is none who does good.”
Psalms 14:1

“Everyone proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord; though they

join forces, none will go unpunished.” Proverbs 16:5

“You stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always

resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.” Acts 7:51

“When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and does not
understand it, then the wicked one comes and snatches away what
was sown in his heart.” Matthew 13:19

“But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you
are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation
of the righteous judgment of God, who will render to each one
according to his deeds.” Romans 2:5-6

The history of man’s heart has been evil

“Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth,
and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil
continually. And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the
earth, and He was grieved in His heart.” Genesis 6:5-6

204
“Then the Lord said in His heart, ‘I will never again curse the ground
for man's sake, although the imagination of man's heart is evil from
his youth; nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done.’”
Genesis 8:2

“So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father
blessed him, and Esau said in his heart, ‘The days of mourning for
my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob.’” Genesis
27:41

“The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings. I watched till its
wings were plucked off; and it was lifted up from the earth and made
to stand on two feet like a man, and a man's heart was given to it.”
Daniel 7:4

“Through his cunning He shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule;
and he shall exalt himself in his heart. He shall destroy many in their
prosperity. He shall even rise against the Prince of princes; but he
shall be broken without human means.” Daniel 8:25

But the Lord can control the heart of man

“The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord, like the rivers of water;
He turns it wherever He wishes.” Proverbs 21:1

“And the Lord said to Moses, ‘When you go back to Egypt, see that
you do all those wonders before Pharaoh which I have put in your
hand. But I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people
go.’” Exodus 4:21

205
“And they kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days with joy;
for the Lord made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of
Assyria toward them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the
house of God, the God of Israel.” Ezra 6:22

We must be broken hearted

“The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite

heart -- These, O God, You will not despise.” Psalms 51:17

“For I am poor and needy, and my heart is wounded within me.”

Psalms 109:22

“Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with
mourning. So rend your heart, and not your garments; return to the
Lord your God, for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of
great kindness; and He relents from doing harm.” Joel 2:12-13

“For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose
name is Holy: ‘I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a
contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to
revive the heart of the contrite ones.’” Isaiah 57:15

“‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in
Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of
living water.’ But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those
believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given,
because Jesus was not yet glorified.” John 7:37-39

206
“For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that
which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly;
and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter;
whose praise is not from men but from God.” Romans 2:28-29

“You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all
men; clearly you are an epistle of Christ, ministered by us, written not
with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but
on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.” 2 Corinthians 3:2-3

The Spirit purifies our hearts by faith

“So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them
the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, and made no distinction between
us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.” Acts 15:8-9

“Have faith in God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this
mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt
in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he
will have whatever he says.” Mark 11:22-23

“But as it is written: ‘Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have
entered into the heart of man. The things which God has prepared for
those who love Him.’ But God has revealed them to us through His
Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.”
1 Corinthians 2:9-10

207
The upright in heart will glorify God

“The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and trust in Him. And all the
upright in heart shall glory.” Psalms 64:10

“Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; unite my

heart to fear Your name. I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all
my heart, and I will glorify Your name forevermore.” Psalms
86:11-12

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust
destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves
treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where
thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there
your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:19-21

“Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one
soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was
his own, but they had all things in common.” Acts 4:32

208
 The Heart of Man Comes From the Holy Spirit

“God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created
him”. (Genesis 1:27) For we were created in the image of God, and
just as God is three in one: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, so were
we created as three in one: heart, soul, and mind. Our heart is the
vessel through which the Spirit works, and when the Spirit works we
receive the gift of faith. And as the Lord is faithful to us, so should we
be faithful to Him. And His commandment to us is this: “You shall
love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and
with all your mind.” (Matthew 22:37 / Deuteronomy 6:4-5)

Our hearts are inherently evil, for they are easily deceived, by the
ruler of this world, and they devise evil plans, and fall in his ways.
For out of the hearts of men “proceed evil thoughts, murders,
adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.” (Matthew
15:18-19) And the ways of men are corrupt, for in ignorance they say
“there is no God”. (Psalms 14:1) And their hearts of pride have
turned to stone. (Proverbs 16:5) But rather than giving their hearts to
the Spirit, they are doomed to repeat the sins of their fathers. (Acts
7:51) For that which was sown by the Spirit, has been snatched by the
ruler of this earth. (Matthew 13:19) But all men’s hearts shall be
judged by the Lord, and their hardness of heart will make it bleed, for
our Lord “will render to each one according to his deeds”. (Romans
2:5-6)

And as the Lord said, the “imagination of man's heart is evil from his
youth”. (Genesis 8:21) And because of the evil of man’s heart, and
because it grieved our Lord’s heart, He destroyed mankind by the

209
flood. (Genesis 6:5-6) And the blood thirsty ways of the nations,
were conceived by the murderous heart of Esau; and through the heart
of hatred and murder, the wars of the nations continue to this day.
(Genesis 27:41) And the rulers of our nations, through the evil of their
hearts, have ushered in the final days of this earth. For the first ruler
came as the “beast from the sea” from the Great Babylon. “The first
was like a lion, and had eagle's wings. I watched till its wings were
plucked off; and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on
two feet like a man, and a man's heart was given to it.” (Daniel 7:4)
And George Bush Jr. through a heart of evil, was given authority to
wage war against Iraq. And the second ruler is the anti-Christ from
Babylon of Old. “Through his cunning He shall cause deceit to
prosper under his rule; and he shall exalt himself in his heart. He shall
destroy many in their prosperity. He shall even rise against the Prince
of princes; but he shall be broken without human means.” (Daniel
8:25) For Moqtada al-Sadr’s heart from Satan shall be destroyed by
God, when the final bowl is poured out.

Although the ways of our rulers are evil, it is God’s hands that draws
the end near, for He is the one who turns men’s hearts, whichever way
He wishes. (Proverbs 21:1) For was it not God, who hardened
Pharaoh’s heart, when His people passed over from Egypt? (Exodus
4:21) And was it not God, who softened Cyrus’ heart, when Persia
rebuilt His temple? (Ezra 6:22) And know that when the Lord’s
wrath comes, the judgment shall be just, for though the punishment is
great, their hearts will not repent. “And men were scorched with great
heat, and they blasphemed the name of God who has power over these
plagues; and they did not repent and give Him glory.” (Revelation
16:9)

210
And what does the Lord ask of us? That men would turn their hearts
towards Him, and serve Him in the spirit. But in order to do so, man
must be broken in heart and spirit. (Psalms 51:17) For when our
hearts are wounded, and our spirits are needy, then we will know the
truth, that all things come from the Father. (Psalms 109:22) And
when we turn with weeping and mourning, then He is gracious and
merciful. (Joel 2:12-13) And the High and Lofty One who is Holy,
will revive the heart and spirit of those, who are humble in heart and
contrite in spirit. (Isaiah 57:15)

And when we have emptied our hearts, the Spirit can enter and fill our
hearts up. For the prophets of old foretold, that Christ would come
again, and we would be one people with one spirit. (Ezekiel 11:19-20)
And before Christ died on the cross, He promised that when He
returned, our hearts would flow with the Holy Spirit. (John 7:37-39)
And now by God’s mercy and grace, the Spirit can circumcise our
hearts, of the earthly foreskin of this world, and renew us with the
heart of the Spirit. (Romans 2:28-29) And having hearts and spirits
anew, our hearts are no longer tablets of stone, but tablets of flesh
authored by the Spirit. (2 Corinthians 3:2-3)

The Holy Spirit fills our hearts, and purifies our hearts, through the
gift of faith. (Acts 15:8-9) For it is through faith that we believe, in
the sustenance of the Father, the Word of the Son, and the fruits of the
Holy Spirit. And through our faith, we are strengthened without
earthly bonds, and produce the fruits of the Spirit. And those who
have the greatest faith, will have the power He promised of.
“Whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the
sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he
says will be done, he will have whatever he says.” (Mark 11:22-23)
And through our faith, the mysteries of His truths are revealed to us.

211
Yes and even the truths of the things to come, “for the Spirit searches
all things, yes, the deep things of God.” (1 Corinthians 2:9-10)

Now all is past and the time is near, for those who walk in truth and
fear. His Holy people will rejoice for “the righteous shall be glad in
the Lord, and trust in Him. And all the upright in heart shall glory.”
(Psalms 64:10 //Psalms 86:11-12) For the treasures of this earth are
mammon, for all will perish by fire and famine. But those who placed
their treasures in heaven, by hearts of faith will be rewarded by Him.
(Matthew 6:19-21) And all who have placed their faith in the Lord,
will be of one heart forevermore. (Acts 4:32)

 The Mind of Christ, The Love of Mankind
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed November 18, 2008

You shall love the Lord your God with all

your heart, and with all your soul, and
with all your mind. This is the great and
foremost commandment. The second is
like it, You shall love your neighbor as
yourself. On these two commandments
depend the whole Law and the Prophets.
Matthew 22:37-40

The mind of God is infinite and unchangeable

“Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of
God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His
ways! For who has known the mind the Lord who?” Romans
11:33-34

213
“As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and
serve Him with a whole heart and a willing mind; for the Lord
searches all hearts, and understands every intent of the thoughts. If
you seek Him, He will let you find Him; but if you forsake Him, He
will reject you forever.” 1 Chronicles 28:9

“Also the Glory of Israel will not lie or change His mind; for He is
not a man that He should change His mind.” 1 Samuel 15:28-29

“For this the earth shall mourn and the heavens above be dark,
because I have spoken, I have purposed, and I will not change My
mind, nor will I turn from it.” Jeremiah 4:28

The mind of man is depraved

“The mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not
subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and
those who are in the flesh cannot please God.” Romans 8:7-8

“Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh,
indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature
children of wrath, even as the rest.” Ephesians 2:3

“And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God
gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not
proper, being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil;
full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips,
slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of

214
evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy,
unloving, unmerciful.” Romans 1:28-31

The beasts have the mind of perdition

“He who has a crooked mind finds no good, and he who is perverted
in his language falls into evil.” Proverbs 17:20

“The mind of man plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps.”
Proverbs 16:9

“The first was like a lion and had the wings of an eagle. I kept looking
until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the ground and
made to stand on two feet like a man; a human mind also was given
to it.” Daniel 7:4

“They have said, ‘Come, and let us wipe them out as a nation, that the
name of Israel be remembered no more. For they have conspired
together with one mind; against You they make a covenant.’” Psalms
83:4-5

The Lord counsels the minds of those who seek Him

“For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, THAT HE

SHOULD INSTRUCT HIM? But we have the mind of Christ.” 1
Corinthians 2:16

215
“I will bless the Lord who has counseled me; indeed, my mind
instructs me in the night.” Psalms 16:7

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the

renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God
is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans 12:2

“Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on
earth.” Colossians 3:2

“Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant
you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ
Jesus, so that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God
and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 15:5-6

All will be reconciled, all will be one mind in the Lord

“For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former
things will not be remembered or come to mind.” Isaiah 65:17

“Then I will give you shepherds after My own heart, who will feed
you on knowledge and understanding. ‘It shall be in those days when
you are multiplied and increased in the land,’ declares the Lord, ‘they
will no longer say, ‘The ark of the covenant of the Lord.’ And it will
not come to mind, nor will they remember it, nor will they miss it,
nor will it be made again. At that time they will call Jerusalem ‘The
Throne of the Lord,’ and all the nations will be gathered to it, to
Jerusalem, for the name of the Lord; nor will they walk anymore after
the stubbornness of their evil heart.’” Jeremiah 3:15-17

216
 The Trinities

For there are three that testify: the Spirit and the
water and the blood; and the three are in
agreement. 1 John 5:7-8

217
 The Mind of Christ is Sacrificial Love

Contrary to what we believe, love comes from the Mind of Christ and
the mind of man, and not from than the heart of man. For what is
love but a choice of the mind. And “greater love has no one than this,
that one lay down his life for his friends.” (John 15:13) For the
greatest love of all is that God sent His only Son, and by His love, He
sacrificed His blood for the redemption of mankind. “For this reason
the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it
again. No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My
own initiative. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to
take it up again.” (John 10:17-18) And what does it mean to love?
Recall the words of Moses, “love the Lord your God with all your
heart and with all your soul.” (Deuteronomy 30:6) Yet recall the
mindful words of Christ, “love the Lord your God with all your heart,
with all your soul, and with all your mind.” (Matthew 22:37-40)
For by the sacrifice of His blood on the cross, the triune of God’s
graces now is complete: faith, hope, and love; “but the greatest of
these is love.” (1 Corinthians 13:13)

The mind of the Lord is infinite and impassable, beyond the expanses
of the universe, and deeper than the thoughts of our mind. “How
unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways! For who
has known the mind the Lord, who?” (Romans 11:33-34) And the
Lord searches the depths of our minds, for He understands every
intent of our thoughts. (1 Chronicles 28:9) But contrary to the mind
of man, the mind of the Lord remains unchanged, “for He is not a
man that He should change His mind.” (1 Samuel 15:28-29) Thus the
words of the prophecy shall be fulfilled, for the prophets of old
foretold, “for this the earth shall mourn and the heavens above be

218
dark, because I have spoken, I have purposed, and I will not change
My mind, nor will I turn from it.” (Jeremiah 4:28)

For the mind of man has been subject, to the mind of Satan and the
flesh of this world. And the mind of the flesh is at enmity with God.
(Romans 8:7-8) And even the prophets, martyrs, and saints were
born as children of the flesh, “and were by nature children of wrath,
even as the rest.” (Ephesians 2:3) But to those who refuted the mind
of Christ, were given to them the mind of flesh. And “God gave them
over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper,
being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of
envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, slanderers,
haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil,
disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy,
unloving, unmerciful.” (Romans 1:28-31)

And the leaders of this world have the mind of perdition, adopting a
language of perversion and derision. (Proverbs 17:20) Yet they
forget these words of wisdom, “the mind of man plans his way, but
the Lord directs his steps.” (Proverbs 16:9) And on September 11,
2001, the beast from the sea, through the mind of a man, was given
the power of Satan. (Daniel 7:4) And on May 25, 2007, the beast
from the earth was given the mind of Satan. And the beasts devise
their evil plans to destroy the nations, for they abhor the mind of our
Lord, and have given their minds over to Satan. (Psalms 83:4-5)

“For who has known the mind of the Lord, that we should instruct
Him? But we have the mind of Christ.” (1 Corinthians 2:16) For
those who call upon the Lord, through the mind of Christ, the Lord
will instruct. (Psalms 16:7) And by the mind of Christ, we are no
longer conformed to the flesh, but are transformed by the renewing of
our minds. (Romans 12:2) And no longer do we set our minds on
this earth, but look forward to the heavens and the treasures above.

219
(Colossians 3:2) And by being transformed by the mind of Christ,
we have become one mind and “with one voice glorify the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Romans 15:5-6)

And over the span of two times “time, times, and half a time” (Daniel
12:7), the prophecy shall be fulfilled. And mankind will be one mind
with the Lord, for the mind of Satan and flesh will be forgotten. “For
behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things
will not be remembered or come to mind”. (Isaiah 65:17) And a new
Jerusalem and kingdom will be established. And its shepherds will
feed its people with knowledge and understanding. And the ark of the
covenant will be no more, for God will dwell in our presence, and His
goodness will be among all nations. Forevermore. (Jeremiah 3:15-17)

Christ is Light
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed August 22, 2007

I am the light of the world.

He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness,
but have the light of life.
John 8:12

God is Light and Darkness

“The darkness and the light are both alike to You.” Psalms 139:12

“Then God said, ‘Let there be light'’; and there was light. And God
saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the
darkness.” Genesis 1:3

“Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day,
and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set
them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to
rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the
darkness. And God saw that it was good.” Genesis 1:16-18

222
The Lord is the Light

“The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?” Psalm

27:1

“For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light.”
Psalms 36:9

“Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, ‘I am the light of the world.
He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of
life.’” John 8:12

We are sons of the Light

“While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become
sons of light.'” John 12:36

But the Light will leave this earth

“Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw
it into the sea, saying, ‘Thus with violence the great city Babylon
shall be thrown down, and shall not be found anymore. The sound of
harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters shall not be heard in you
anymore. And no craftsman of any craft shall be found in you
anymore. And the sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you
anymore. And the light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore. And

223
the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore.
For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your
sorcery all the nations were deceived. And in her was found the blood
of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth.’”
Revelation 18:21-24

And the Light will dwell amongst us... forever

“And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the
Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see
His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. And there shall be
no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord
God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.”
Revelation 22:3-5

224
 God is Light

Allegory is beautiful but literalness is inspiring. For God the Father

created light and darkness, but in the beginning neither existed. But
the Father existed before light and darkness, and now He is both light
and darkness. For He created the light out of darkness, and He did
this for the benefit of mankind. (Genesis 1:3) For how can we see the
light, unless we are in the darkness? But we do know this, it is the
image of light which we see, but not the source of the light itself. For
optically we see the image of the object, which is a reflection of the
light off the object, but we cannot see the light itself. That is until the
Light came in this world, for the Light became flesh, and the Light is
Life. “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk
in darkness, but have the light of life.” (John 8:12)

The allegory is this, that God has become both light and darkness, for
He makes no distinction between the two. (Psalms 139:12) But the
good of its difference was meant for mankind. And on the first day
He created the light, but darkness was made, for only in dark could
we see the light. (Genesis 1:3) And on the second day He created the
heavens, for the Light would dwell in the heavens. (Genesis 1:6-8)
And on the third day He created the earth, but the earth would remain
in the darkness. (Genesis 1:8-15) And on the fourth day He created
two lights, the sun and the moon, so that all could see His creation on
earth. (Genesis 1:16-18) And the earth had light but did not have God,
for all we could see was the image of God.

The Son came to earth to give sight to mankind, for He is the Light of
the world. (John 8:12) And through the Son we have no fear (Psalm
27:1) because His Word of Light is Life. (Psalms 36:9) The allegory
is though we see the Light, we have just a glimpse of who our God is.

225
For the spectrum of light that our eyes can see, is just one percent of
the spectrum of light. And although we know the qualities of light,
for now we know that it’s wave (i.e. Einstein’s theory of relativity)
and particle (i.e. quantum theory of light), there are still qualities we
don’t understand. For Christ the Light came down to earth, so we
could be with the Father. The blessing is that by knowing the Father,
now we are called the sons of the Light. (John 12:36)

And the literalness of light is this, we no longer see the image of the
light, for now we see that Christ is the Light. And what is the property
of light? And if we take the theory of relativity, we can apply that
which we know:

E = mc2
E = energy m = mass
c = speed of light = 299,796 km/s
And from this formula, if we assume the speed of light is constant, we
can extrapolate that energy (albeit a very prodigious number) is
proportional to mass.

Energy α mass

And as we know, the Father is energy and His creation is mass. Now
we can see that the Father is all powerful, for He holds the creative
and destructive force of His creation. Yes, the destructive force of
man.

226
 Father α His creation

For by the “wisdom” of man and relativity, we understand the

destructive force of man. For through the destructive force of
mankind, the earth and mankind shall perish. For when the nuclear
holocaust ensues, a nuclear winter will follow, and the light of the sun
will depart from the earth. “Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl
on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom became full of darkness;
and they gnawed their tongues because of the pain.” (Revelation
16:10) And when the final trumpet sounds, Christ the Lamb and the
Light of the world, the SON shall depart from the earth. And “the
light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore” (Revelation 18:21-24)

But by the love and mercy of God, after all our sins are reconciled,
the heavens and earth will be destroyed, and all shall enter His
kingdom. And man will understand the Light, for they will see the
Light, for the Light of God will dwell amongst them... for the Light of
our Life is God “And there shall be no night there: They need no
lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they
shall reign forever and ever.” (Revelation 22:3-5)

 Addendum 3
The Value of π - Christ is the Narrow Gate
From Signs, Science, & Symbols of the Prophecy
To Andrew the Prophet
Completed August 11, 2007

I am the way, the truth, and the life.

No one comes to the Father except through
Me.
John 14:6

What does π look like? π is a gate, the design upon which the temples
were built. And π is an infinite and transcendental number, a number
not understood in finite mortal terms. And Einstein said that if he
could comprehend π, then he could comprehend God, for π is the
number of God. And it truly is. And what does π look like? It is the
narrow gate, for it represents Christ who is the Gate. And do you
remember what He said on the Mount? “Enter through the narrow
gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to
destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is
small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who
find it.” (Matthew 7:12-13) For we all were created by the Father, and
we all have fallen away from the Father. But Christ interceded on our
behalf, and gave us the gateway to return to the Father. But to
complete the circle back to the Father, we must go through Christ who
is the narrow Gate. And what is the formula to complete the circle?
The formula of circumference = π • diameter. Circumference is the
path to return to the Father, and diameter is the distance you are away

228
from the Father. And Solomon was told when he constructed the
temple, that value of π was equal to 3, “ten cubits from one brim to
the other; it was completely round… and a line of thirty cubits
measured its circumference.” (1 Kings 7:23). And obviously that
answer was far from complete. For many have come close, but no
one on their own has returned to the Father. For this is humanly
impossible, for π is an infinite number. Until Christ the Son came
down to mankind, for He is the Gate “the way, the truth, and the life.
No one can go to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6) Christ
is π. When we go through Him, then we return to the Father. But no
one can return to the Father except through Him!

Christ = π = The Narrow Gate

Circumference = π • diameter

Circumference = path back to the Father

diameter = distance between you & the Father

π = 3.1415926535897923847274338327……..∞

229
And the circular pattern above is a symbol commonly used in India.
For the pattern represents karma, “what goes around, comes around”!
All have come from the Father, and all will return to the Father.
Amen. All men.
