In the Twilight Zone

 

The Twilight Zone

 

HEADLINE:

 

Zechariah 14:2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. 6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark: 7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light. 8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be. 9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

 

The LAST-DAY Son-Sun is the son of consummation of time that ends devils’ stay of execution.  When this man is called to God, He will clear the planet of all spirit life-forms created by God and residing there.  To do this, God lifts the veil of the demonic covering clinging to them and then transports them all to Paradise..  All “tares” at that moment will be in free-fall as they await a visit from the Supreme Judge.  When He focuses His attention on them, they will IGNITE in fire.  This will be the bonfire we need to inaugurate our first complete Family Reunion otherwise known as the Feast of Tabernacles.

 

II Esdras 6:7 'Tell me', I went on, 'about the interval that divides the ages. When will 8 the first age end and the next age begin?' He said, 'The interval will be no bigger than that between Abraham and Abraham; for Jacob and Esau were his descendants, and Jacob's hand was grasping Esau's heel at the 9 moment of their birth. Esau represents the end of the first age, and Jacob 10 the beginning of the next age. The beginning of a man is his hand, and the end of a man is his heel. Between the heel and the hand, Ezra, do not look for any interval.'

 

Since man is the TIME of this world, the LAST DAY Son is the interface between “the past-life” where time or one day is measured in 24-hr. increments and ETERNAL DAY that is one single day that never ends.  This means our consciousness is fully in the presence of Creator-God, the Ancient of days.  The LAST DAY SON-SUN is an enigma.  He is the END of “the past” a time of enslavement to convict devils and to enforced SIN-works at their behest, and IMMORTAL LIFE when we come into our true birthright and heritage from God.

 

All clean animals that Moses said that we could eat “chew the cud and divide the hoof”.  This is because all humans have a double destiny.  We have been given to our personal guardian angels to help us in our warfare with demonic prisoners.  The angels give us countering ideas to the thought impulses presented by our demonic slave-masters.  “Chewing the cud” means “we think about the process of instructions weighing the evil out come against the benefit of not doing the deceitful work proposed by our demonic tares riding our head.  “I could do this thing and this will happen and it is bad.  But I could also do the alternative thing and things will be good”.  It refers to the reasoning process guardian angels cause in man.  We think “If I do this or that, it is possible that I could have a negative and painful outcome.  But if I reject this impulse and take a more sensible approach, I can avoid pain and humiliation”.  So “chewing the cud” refers to the back and forth reasoning thought-process” that guardian angels insert as they wrestle with the demonic slave masters on the person they are assigned to help on Earth.  As for the “dividing the hoof”, it refers to man’s destiny of life in two worlds.  We “live in the past as slaves on planet Earth”, the devils’ prison complex where time is measured in 24-hr. increments daily.  After circumcision, or removal from our earthly wrap of clay (the human body) by Jesus’ voice calling our TRUE NAME, we RISE TO PARADISE to stand before Father, Jesus, and Mother Wisdom and join the IMMORTAL FAMILY before the Throne.  So all humans “divide the hoof” even though they are unaware of it meaning, they are residents in two worlds.  (1) The PAST life is the time of captivity in days of 24-hr. increments in this world.  (2) Eternity or “TODAY” in the Presence of Creator-God, who is ONE EVERLASTING DAY.  That is the Barn of Heaven called Paradise.  “Cloven hoofed” means we have a foot in both worlds.

 

II Esdras 7:11 He said to me: 'Such is the lot of Israel. It was for Israel that I made the world, and when Adam transgressed my decrees the creation came under 12 judgement. The entrances to this world were made narrow, painful, and 13 arduous, few and evil, full of perils and grinding hardship. But the entrances 14 to the greater world are broad and safe, and lead to immortality. All men must therefore enter this narrow and futile existence; otherwise they can 15 never attain the blessings in store.

 

II Esdras 7:[49] The angel replied: 'Listen to me and I will give you further instruction [50] and correction. It is for this reason that the Most High has created not one [51] world but two.

 

I could say that those of us in this TIME OF THE END are in the “twilight zone”.  We know we are residents of two worlds.  We exist today in the PAST on planet Earth right now.  Our destiny is ETERNITY in Paradise which is just a call away from Jesus our REDEEMER.

 

Hosea 13:14 I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from mine eyes.

 

John 5:25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. 26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; 27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

 

II Esdras 2:42 I, Ezra, saw on Mount Zion a crowd too large to count, all singing hymns 43 of praise to the Lord. In the middle stood a very tall young man, taller than all the rest, who was setting a crown on the head of each one of them; he 44 stood out above them all. I was enthralled at the sight, and asked the angel 45 'Sir, who are these?' He replied, 'They are those who have laid aside their mortal dress and put on the immortal, those who acknowledged the name 46 of God. Now they are being given crowns and palms. 'And I asked again, 'Who is the young man setting crowns on their heads and giving them 47 palms?', and the angel replied, 'He is the Son of God, whom they acknowledged in this mortal life. 'I began to praise those who had stood so valiantly 48 for the Lord's name. Then the angel said to me: 'Go and tell my people all the great and wonderful acts of the Lord God that you have seen.'

 

Hebrews 12:22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, 23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.

 

Romans 14:7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. 8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. 9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.

 

As for me, I can see both worlds and our places in them.  I presently reside in the PAST with human life on planet Earth.  I can see a “great gulf fixed” above my position.  And Jesus is calling men from Earth to the Throne to join him and the majority of our spirit Family members.  Just below the great gulf there is a dividing line of fire.  To get to the Throne-room, one must navigate the gulf and get past the fire.  Jesus’ voice is the key that makes a way for the children listed in Jesus’ Book of Life.  But there are those whose names are not written in that BOOK!

 

Luke 16:19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: 20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, :21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. 25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. 26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. 27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: 28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. 29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. 30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. 31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

 

You know, I can see both the PAST (man’s time on Earth) and the ETERNAL DAY,”TODAY”, simultaneously in the parable of Lazarus and the rich man.  It is an allegory for the “tares” residing on man’s body.  I am at an interface between both worlds that Jesus described concerning Lazarus, and about which the angel informed Ezra in II Esdras 7:49.  Some of you readers might soon understand that we have entered the Father’s “twilight zone”!  There is something to that early, popular TV series.  The description of our HEADLINE text, Zechariah 14:2-9, although spiritual, is definitely in “the twilight zone”.  “In that day the light shall not be clear, nor dark”!  And to top it off, my feet are standing on planet Earth right now, but my Head is sitting on Creator-God’s Throne and doing a “One-man show”!
