God is IMMENSE

 God Is IMMENSE

 

HEADLINE:

 

II Hermas I:1-3,”First of all believe that there is One God who created and framed all things from nothing into a being. He comprehends all things and is only immense, NOT TO BE COMPREHENDED BY ANY. Who can neither be defined by any words, nor conceived by the mind”,

 

What do you see in a word?  If it is the Word of God, it could be a directive or a complete paragraph, or a book.  Let us consider the word, “immense”.  Definition of:

We can see from this word that God is so large that He is difficult to see or comprehend.  Perhaps we should continue with other descriptors to give us a more clear mental picture of who and what we are dealing with.

 

No man on his own can seek and find God by his will. 

 

Matthew 11:25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. 26 Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight. 27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

 

So if a man is to learn of God, then Jesus or a Holy Spirit from God must lead and teach him what he needs to know.  Here is what God showed me from the scriptures.

 

Isaiah 66:1 Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?

 

Acts 17:24 God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; 25 Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 26  And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; 27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: 28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

 

I understand that, “God made man in His image (Mother Wisdom’s womb) and after His likeness”.  If the Earth is His footstool and Heaven is His Headquarters, it means planet Earth is down low, somewhere in His feet.  His Throne-room is in the highest place in His head.  This means that God is EXTREMELY LARGE, in fact SO BIG, that the universe or cosmos we see at night is a small snapshot of His insides down low.  We are viewing what amounts to tissues of His feet.

 

Secrets of Enoch 30:10 I conceived a cunning saying to say, I created man (1) from invisible and (2) 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, honourable, 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.

 

Invisible spirit nature

 

Secrets of Enoch 25 1 I commanded in the very lowest parts, that visible things should come down from invisible, and Adoil came down very great, and I beheld 2 him, and lo! he had a belly of great light. And I said to him: 'Become undone, Adoil, and let 3 the visible come out of thee.' And he came undone, and a great light came out. And I was in the midst of the great light, and as there is born light from light, there came forth a great age, and showed all creation, which I had thought to 4 create. And I saw that it was good. And I placed for myself a throne, and took; my seat on it, and said to the light: 'Go thou up higher and fix thyself high above the throne, and be 5 a foundation to the highest things.' And above the light there is nothing else, and then I bent up and looked up from my throne.

 

Visible nature from clay

 

Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

 

This means humans are composed of two parts, of visible nature, and also invisible nature.

 

God told me to think of the seahorse to understand our relationship to Him.  The male seahorse has a pouch in which it carries its young until the babies grow and are mature.  Only after maturity will he release them to be on their own in the sea.  In the Acts text above, we are told that we exist in God’s footstool on planet Earth.  We are clothed in clay stage-clothes like human cocoons where our spirits abide to experience negative input from enemy demons in prison.  Men are given an average of 70 years to face-off against them on the earthly obstacle course, Psalms 90:9-10.  God wants to find out if we love Him or not.  This is a double-blind test.  He is a very adroit “Scientist and Teacher”.

Men are not aware of who they are and why they are in this predicament.  They are put in a battle field to wage war with an invisible enemy that some do not believe is real.  If one learns of God, he is expected to learn to love Him so that He will fight on our behalf and save us from demonic convict prisoners that ride on our bodies.  One must endure the abuse until death.  Those who are called by Jesus when they die, receive a crown of victory and eternal life.  They fly to Paradise and are retrieved by Michael’s reaping angels.  Those who fail at death are left behind to fall with demons until the day of retribution when God will burn down the planet Earth and all the condemned spirits and losers in a great lake of fire.  When the fire is done, “NOTHING will remain, no demonic prisoners and no fragments of planet Earth.

 

Why is this necessary and why so extreme?  There was a dispute in Heaven when God’s first Family, Archangels and 24 Elders had to battle Lucifer, Babylon and their “angels”.  To end the tiff, a trial was held and the Powers of Darkness lost in Court.  They accused God of meanness and lying to them.  They saw 24 -Elder children, Mother Wisdom and Father-God.  They asked that He let them have a place of their own where they could live as they please to avoid His “House Rules”.  That idea was rejected when He said, “I need all the SPACE you see for my own Family.  Devils accused Him of being a liar like they are.  They demanded that He “show us your children and prove that you are not deceiving us”.   Would you believe it?  God accepted their challenge and said I will show them to you where you are.  God’s PLAN is to “use them” in the education regimen planned to all His children.  Devils provide a NEGATIVE “exercise” to help us to determine the greater value of goodness over SIN and evil conduct.  Poor Adam!  He and Eve were like babies caught in a web of wickedness, deceit, and lies because of a fight between two families in a Home so far away.

 

Now let us go to the parable of the sower in Matthew 13.  We find the Husbandman, Farther-God, personally setting down the first two stars from the Chamber of Stars.  The male was called Adam and the female was called Eve.  He told both of them, “Be fruitful and multiply”, and so our hellish trip on Earth became our norm.  Human history on Earth records man’s faring against demons throughout time.

 

You see that our Father is doing a double-blind test.  He has cursed demons with darkness and they cannot see Him or “light” by previous order from the Heavenly court.  Devils cannot see us as children of light because God has masked us all in clay stage-clothes.  The human faces we have are just for our human roles.  They do not depict how we really look.  As children of light, we actually shine beneath the clay.  But for our negative experience to work, God has turned our light “OFF”!   Devils would not come near us and attack us if our light was turned “ON”.  Furthermore men do not know that each of them are single cells, or containers of God’s ”life substance”, whatever it is.  We cannot “live” without God doing it personally in us and for us.  So you see Jesus is PERFECT when he tells us “we are one with the Father”!  Look at this:

 

John 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. 24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

 

1 Corinthians 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

 

Ephesians 4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

 

What God is doing is getting Himself back together daily.  Each day He sows more seedling spirit-children down in His field on planet Earth.  And He also reaps those He sowed when their time facing devils expires.  This is Father’s routine as long as there are more children in the Chamber of Stars to show to demonic prisoners.  God informed everyone that the number of His children is so large that they cannot be counted by man.  There is such a thing as “the last-born son” and the “day of consummation”.  When this man appears and God works the works this man is supposed to do, then all must stand before Him!  That will be AT- ONE- MENT- T Day, when Father will have gathered all His Body parts together again to be “ONE” again.  Imagine it!  Put yourself in His place! (You can do this because your nature is just like His nature is)!  What if you could take every cell that in your body and separate them into individual little beings of your self?  You send them to battle and enemy in a deep dark place.  How long has it been since He put Adam down here?  It is now AD. 2024.  Don’t you think He might have a yearning to become “ONE” (perfect) BEING again?  Check out His PLANS:

 

 

Acts 10:9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour: 10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, 11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. 14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. 15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. 16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven. 28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

 

Jeremiah 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: 32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: 33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.

 

 

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.

 

Isaiah 2:2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. 3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. 4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

 

Isaiah 24:1 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. 3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word. 4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. 5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

 

Isaiah 25:6 And in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined. 7 And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. 9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

 

Isaiah 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: 2 And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; 3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: 4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. 5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins. 6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. 7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. 8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den. 9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. 10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. 11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. 12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.

 

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.

 

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. 4 And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

  1. Addendum: God Is IMMENSE

    When I thought I cold READ the Bible and understand it, the Spirit critiqued my skill-set and told me “Your depth-perception is not very good”! By that he meant that I am missing light that is right before my eyes. Take the word, "immense". What is God saying to those who can "SEE"?
    "I'm- men! See"! I can prove it in the Word and by the Word.

    A. "I will dwell in them and walk in them. Flesh and blood men are His special shoes for moving about His footstool!

    2 Corinthians_6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

    B. Whatever you do or do not do to any man, you do it, or not do it unto Him!

    Matthew 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. 45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

    C. In all our affliction He is afflicted.

    Isaiah 63:9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

    D. "I am the vine and ye are the branches". The vine and the branches are one and the same plant. "Without me you can do nothing" ...not even breather. Are you ready for the cherry on the top?

    John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

    E. John 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. 24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

    Check this out:
    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. 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

    If you are a flesh and blood man, you have it made! "I'M MEN .. SEE"! Collectively, individual men are the “cells” that constitute His Body on planet Earth. The VINE is a collection of many cellular branches connected as one plant. Wait until God gathers all His separate cell-parts together with Him in the Throne-room! That will be the moment to remember forever! The question now is “Can you SEE”?
