Sold "DIERS" of the Cross

 SOLD “DIERS” of the CROSS

 

HEADLINES:

 

Genesis 15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; 14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.

 

The seed of Abraham, who was role-playing for God Himself, are born on Earth specifically for captivity and affliction.  We know that Father-God was in a tiff with the powers of darkness that He cast down to the bottomless-pit.  They are testing TOOLS to give His children an up-close and personal NEGATIVE experience with evil as He teaches us to make the best choices for peace and happiness.  Devils had transgressed God’s will in Heaven and were judged, found guilty, and sentenced to await final execution by fire in hell until Father has finished “using them”.  At that moment He will execute them and they will disappear and be forgotten forever. In fact Father will ERASE our memories of our imprisonment like a computer tech erases the memory of a hard-drive.  It will be impossible to recall anything about them by accident throughout eternity!  It will be like they never happened!!

 

I know you have heard the saying, “Experience is the best teacher”.  God wants us to have a personal “exercise” with EVIL so we can learn in real time the value of goodness as opposed to wickedness.  In the educational skit on the Earth-stage, God had Joseph’s brothers to sell him to Ishmeelite slave-traders, who sold him to Egyptians in Pharaoh’s house.  Keep in mind that Father is a “Playwright”, who designed this episode in His play to teach us what will become of His children on planet Earth, who are strangers in Satan’s prison-house.  You know what Pharaoh did to them.  After 400 years of slavery, the scenario called for a man named Moses to lead them out of Egyptian captivity to freedom in the land of Canaan.

 

Secrets of Enoch 30:10 I conceived a cunning saying to say, I created man from invisible and from visible nature, of both are his death and life and image, the knows speech like some created thing, small in greatness 11 and again great in smallness, and I placed him on earth, a second angel, honorable, great 12 and glorious, and I appointed him as ruler to rule on earth and to have my wisdom, and there was none like him of earth of all my existing creatures. 13 And I appointed him a name, from the four component parts, from east, from west, from south, 14, 15 from north, and I appointed for him four special stars, and I called his name Adam, and showed him the two ways,. the light and the darkness, and I told him: 'This is good, and that bad,' that I should learn whether he has love towards me, or hatred, that it be clear which in his race love me. 16 For I have seen his nature, but he has not seen his own nature, therefore through not seeing he will sin worse, and I said: 'After sin what is there but death?'

 

Ecclesiastes 1:13 And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. 14  I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit.

 

Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. 20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. 23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

 

II Esdras 7:1 When I had finished speaking, the same angel was sent to me as on the 2 previous nights. He said to me, 'Rise to your feet, Ezra, and listen to the 3 message I have come to give you.' 'Speak, my lord', I said. He said to me: 'Imagine a sea set in a vast open space, spreading far 4 5 and wide, but the entrance to it narrow like the gorge of a river. If anyone is determined to reach this sea, whether to set eyes on it or to gain command of it, he cannot arrive at its open waters except through the narrow gorge 6 Or again, imagine a city built in a plain, a city full of everything you can 7 desire, but the entrance to it narrow and steep, with fire to the right and 8 deep water to the left. There is only the one path, between the fire and the 9 water; and that is only wide enough for one man at a time. If some man has been given this city as a legacy, how can he take possession of his inheritance 10 except by passing through these dangerous approaches?' 'That is the only way, my lord', I agreed. 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. Why then, Ezra, are you so deeply disturbed 16 at the thought that you are mortal and must die?

 

Observe that God said to Enoch, “After sin what is there but death”? in Secrets of Enoch 30:16.  The immediate question in follow-up to Him should have been, “What is death”?  He told Adam “In the day that you eat of the forbidden tree, you shall surely die.”  Adam did not know what “death” meant, because nothing had ever “died”, neither man nor animal.   THAT is the beauty of the Word of God.  The word, “death” has a secret component that is hidden from perception.  We will discuss that as we move along in this post.  Adam did not know what death is, but he assumed it was something bad and related to punishment.  Imprisoned demons clutching and hanging onto the bodies of men and animals were just as ignorant as men were about “death”.  No one on Earth had ever seen it or experienced it before.

 

Back to our story, “Abraham’s seed” was scheduled to be enslaved for 400 years in this part of the tale.  “And after that period God said that nation I will judge”.  Bear in mind that God is a Teacher, and He is putting on a stage performance for two audiences, (1) angelic Witnesses watching from Heaven, and (2) demonic tares clinging to the bodies of men and animals to avoid their curse of falling through all solid matter!  The 400 years is a relative number because this is just a role-play model for teaching g purposes.  The children of God are ALL OF MANKIND!  The “strange land of our imprisonment and slavery” is planet Earth, the prison-house holding invisible devils.  Since men cannot see devils, the Egyptian people had to play the roles of demonic captors, because men can be seen.  Men on Earth were not expected to grasp and understand the psycho-drama of this scenario.  But the angels Watching as Witnesses were to analyze what they were observing and determine that ALL HUMANS are the children of God and all invisible demonic tares are Egyptian slave-masters. 400 years of slavery is a relative period for the “stage-play”, which covers all the years man exists on planet Earth.

 

God asked, “What is after sin, but “DEATH”?

 

We have said neither men nor devils had ever seen or heard of that word, “death”!  Let us now examine how God taught us in later generations about “death”.

 

Wisdom of Solomon 1:13 For God did not make death, and takes no pleasure in the destruction of any living thing; 14 he created all things that they might have being. The creative forces of the world make for life; there is no deadly poison in them. Death is not king on 15 16 earth, for justice is immortal; but godless men by their words and deeds have asked death for his company. Thinking him their friend, they have made a pact with him because they are fit members of his party; and so they have wasted away.

 

No one has really “died” yet.  What happens to flesh and blood life-forms is just a ruse to give men and devils an idea of what it means.  The spirits of all life forms actually all “SECRETLY BOARD THE OLD SHIP OF ZION” which is parked above the Earth just above the “great gulf fixed”.  Each male boards with his female companion and waits for “Michael to row the boat ashore (to Paradise) as the song says.  But God has shown demonic prisoners what they can expect when He executes them.  REAL DEATH is yet to come for God’s enemies in the pit of hell.  Devils have seen flesh and bones return to dust.  The life form becomes still and makes no sound.  Its consciousness ceases and worms and bacteria dispose of the carcass if it is not scavenged by meat-eating scavengers.  We have discussed that will happen to devils.  We need a bonfire as we celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles or our very first Family Reunion to make Father-God “ONE” again.  In BIG BANG theory terms, all matter returns to its original Source at that moment.  Devils have seen how fat burns in the fire. In a similar manner that special fire that will ERASE them permanently will pop away tiny pieces of their persons and make it disappear in the fire.  This process will continue until they shrink down to nothing at all!  Say, “Amen” to that!

 

What men and devils did not understand is HOW God created man!  A “man” is two components, (1) visible flesh and blood, and (2) “living angelic-spirit” from God, which is invisible to men and devils.  Man is a “second angel” born into a clay-suit that is built in the human womb.  These things are hidden from men and demons.  Devils and men, see the visible “clay-form”, which is superficial.  The invisible spirit is hidden inside both from men and devils.  That is where the genius of the Creator comes into focus.

 

Hebrews 2:7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands: 8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.  14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

 

Jesus was born as all men are born to teach us the hidden mystery of what happens when men die.  Jesus represented all of mankind in his role in Father’s stage-play.  He was born into flesh and blood like all humans are born.  But he is also called the “Son of God”, because all men are the children of God and we were all born on the same day and moment when Jesus was born to Mother Wisdom.  We are all “chosen” and our proportions are written in Mother’s workbook laying out all aspects of each child Father asked Her to build.  This is Mother’s Book of Life listing us by Order, by name and by number.  In his work in Palestine and the Jerusalem environs, Jesus healed the sick and wounded and even raised the dead.  He also warned his detractors that if they kill him, “I will rise again in three days”!  To his demonic enemies riding the bodies of men, he also declared, “If I, the son of man, be lifted up from the Earth, I will draw all men unto me”.  Devils riding the bodies of the Jews like horses should have heeded his warning!  They wanted to keep men subdued and passive so they can maintain them as slaves.  They did not want Jesus stirring men up to resist their power and control.  Devils decided to take the dare in great anger, and they lynched him and hung him on the cross.  Jesus took his last breath and “died”!  There is that word, “death” again!  Three days later there was near bedlam at the tomb, where his body was placed!  Certain women went to the tomb, looked inside, and the body was gone!  You cannot imagine the horror this brought to the demons controlling the people in that area.  Devils were terrified and horrified.  They all freaked out because Jesus promised them, “I will draw all men unto me”!  They blew it, and killed him!  Now he will take all men from them that they think they have under control.  Jesus will leave no sheep behind.  Father gave him a strict commandment to “See that you lose nothing”!  If I was a betting man, I would put my money on Jesus!

 

Jesus lived previously as a living, breathing allegory, and revealed the mystery about mankind and death.  The body is like a cocoon.  It can die, but the living spirit son or daughter inside it, is drawn alive to paradise by our Father.    It is called “reaping” in Jesus’ parable in Matthew 13:24-30.  Adam did not know this about our creation.  The devils that caused Cain to slay Abel also were ignorant of this.  But God had Jesus personally show to mankind that we are two component parts, as God told us in Secrets 30:10.  Death means the visible flesh and blood returns to dust, while the spirit son or daughter flies away to God’s Throne, Ecclesiastes 12:7, 4:1-2.  That is “circumcision”, or the reaping process.  He was proof-positive about the description given to Enoch in how God created man in the Secrets of Enoch text above.  Jesus is living proof that the threat Jesus made to “draw all men to him” is REAL.  Devils messed up when they crucified him in their fight with God and their attempt to hurt Him.  Now he is at Father’s right hand reading names from the Book of Life.  His work continues that men saw on Earth when his ministry began.  Every man he called followed him without exception and without quibbling.  And now this “King of the Jews” sits on Father’s Throne and he is reading out-loud the names he sees by number and Order.  These names are not earthly names that men today have.  They are in the language of Heaven that God and Mother Wisdom spoke in the beginning.  God opens the spirit ears of each child on Earth with those targeted names.  All those with ears to hear, make a lightning-fast exit to Paradise, and “Follow me” straight to Father’s Throne!  It does not matter where they are on Earth, nor their status of health!  “All that are in the graves shall hear his voice and they that hear shall live”, John 5:25-28.  As you know Jesus had a penchant of raising men from the dead, a very great power and threat fully demonstrated before the devils riding on the bodies of men in his day.  Devils made a great blunder in warfare by crucifying him!

 

A cross is given to every flesh and blood man that comes to earth.  The human body of clay is like a cocoon for the spirit of man.  God plants us in a the clay fields of planet Earth meaning the human wombs of His daughters.  In about 9 months or so a new human infant is born all dressed in his personal clay-suit.  In a suitable time butterflies go from a worm stage into a cocoon.  In the spring a winged butterfly emerges from the cocoon.  With men, when the human body dies, it returns to dust and the spirit-child of God flies away to God’s Throne.  The human spirit is a child of light, but they cannot be observed by men or devils. while we live in Satan’s prison.

 

Where God finds “TRUE SPIRITS to worship him”:

 

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. 10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

 

Isaiah 40:29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

 

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.

 

Psalms 65:2 O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come. 3 Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou shalt purge them away. 4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple. 5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou answer us, O God of our salvation; who art the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:

 

John 4:21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

 

Isaiah 66:18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory. 21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the LORD. 22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. 23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD.

REVELATION OF THE MYSTERY OF THE CROSS

 

97. After the Lord had so danced with us, my beloved, he went out. And we were like men amazed or fast asleep, and we fled this way and that. And so I saw him suffer, and did not wait by his suffering, but fled to the Mount of Olives and wept at what had come to pass. And when he was hung (upon the Cross) on Friday, at the sixth hour of the day there came a darkness over the whole earth. And my Lord stood in the middle of the cave and gave light to it and said, 'John, for the people below in Jerusalem I am being crucified and pierced with lances and reeds and given vinegar and gall to drink. But to you I am speaking, and listen to what I speak. I put into your mind to come up to this mountain so that you may hear what a disciple should learn from his teacher and a man from God.'

 

98. And when he had said this he showed me a Cross of Light firmly fixed, and around the Cross a great crowd, which had no single form; and in it (the Cross) was one form and the same likeness. And I saw the Lord himself above the Cross, having no shape but only a kind of voice; yet not that voice which we knew, but one that was sweet and gentle and truly (the voice) of God, which said to me, 'John, there must (be) one man (to) hear these things from me; for I need one who is ready to hear. This Cross of Light is sometimes called Logos by me for your sakes, sometimes mind, sometimes Jesus, sometimes Christ, sometimes a door, sometimes a way, sometimes bread, sometimes seed, sometimes resurrection, sometimes Son, sometimes Father, sometimes Spirit, sometimes life, sometimes truth, sometimes faith, sometimes grace; *and so* (it is called) for men's sake. But what it truly is, as known in *itself* and spoken to us, (is this): it is the distinction of all things, and the *strong uplifting* of *what is firmly fixed* out of what is unstable, and the harmony of wisdom, being wisdom in harmony (?). But there are places on the right and on the left, powers, authorities, principalities and demons, activities, threatenings, passions, devils, Satan and the inferior root *from which* the nature of transient things proceeded.

 

99. This Cross then (is that) which has united all things by the word and which has separated off what is transitory and inferior, which has also *compacted* all things into one. But this is not that wooden Cross which you shall see when you go down from here; nor am I the (man) who is on the Cross, (I) whom now you do not see but only hear (my) voice. I was taken to be what I am not, I who am not what for many others I was; but what they will say of me is mean and unworthy of me. Since then the place of (my?) rest is neither (to be) seen nor told, much more shall I, the Lord of this (place), be neither seen nor told.

 

100. The multitude around the Cross that is not of one form is the inferior nature. And those whom you saw in the Cross, even if they have not (yet) one form -not every member of him who has come down has yet been gathered together. But when *human* nature is taken up, and the race that comes to me and obeys my voice, then *he who* now *hears* me shall be united *with this* (race) and shall no longer be what he now is, but (shall be) above them as I am now. For so long as you do not call yourself mine, I am not what I am; but if you hear me, you also as hearer *shall be* as I am, and I shall be what I was, when you* (are) as I am with myself; for from *me* you are what I am.(?) Therefore ignore the many and despise those who are outside the mystery; for you must know that I am wholly with the Father, and the Father with me.

 

101. So then I have suffered none of those things which they will say of me; even that suffering which I showed to you and to the rest in my dance, I will that it be called a mystery. For what you *are*, that I have shown you, (as) you see; but what I am is known to me alone, and no one else. *Let me* have what is mine; what is yours *you must see* through me; but me *you must see* truly -not that which I am, (as) I said, but that which you, as (my) kinsman, *are able* to know. You hear that I suffered, yet I suffered not; and that I suffered not, yet I did suffer; and that I was pierced, yet I was not wounded; that I was hanged, yet I was not hanged; that blood *flowed* from me, yet it did not flow; and, in a word, that what they say of me, I did not endure, but what they do not say, those things I did suffer. Now what these are, I secretly show you*; for I know that you will understand. You must know me, then, as the *torment* of the Logos, the *piercing* of the Logos, the blood of the Logos, the wounding of the Logos, the fastening of the Logos, the death of the Logos. And so I speak, discarding the man(hood). The first then (that) you must know (is) the Logos; then you shall know the Lord, and thirdly the man, and what he has suffered.'

 

Revelation 21:3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. :4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

 

Revelation 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. 11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; 12 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. 13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.
