CHRIST THE ANTIDOTE REGARDING DEATH

Part 79

A Heart That Is From Within, And Not An Entity Who Is Without Is What Defiles A Man!

Before proceeding with the above theme I somehow feel to first share the following. The delusion of ourpresent existence is a fleshly one & according to the Word it is to pass away but then we are told incontradistinction that My Word will never pass away. Who is this Word? ''In the beginning was theWord and the Word was God'' we were with Him & in Him in the very beginning & our non-delusionalspiritual existence which lasts from everlasting to everlasting, as long as the Father has been in existence& is in existence so are we; For in actual fact if I exist in the Word - which applies to every man in hisspiritual identity - we are told that ''I and My Father ARE ONE.''

The Full Reinstatement Of All Of Mankind! ''It follows then that just as the result of a single transgression is a condemnation which extends to thewhole race, so also the result of a single decree of righteousness is a life-giving acquittal which extendsto the whole race. For as through the disobedience of the one individual the mass of mankind wereconstituted sinners, so also through the obedience of the One the mass of mankind will be constitutedrighteous.'' Rom 5:18-19. Weymouth. To make this a little firmer in our understanding we presentbefore you these verses. ''Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by therighteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man'sdisobedience - THE - many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be maderighteous.'' Rom 5:18-19. KJV. Whenever we read 'the many' or many in these texts it is always referring to the ALL OF MANKIND.The tense of these words are so pertinent i.e. ''by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon allmen'' ''came upon all men.'' The expression even-so represents an equation, not only in the Englishlanguage but also in the Greek. If judgement came upon all men because of Adams offence even so bythe obedience of one, being Christ Himself, all shall be declared righteous. As all died EVEN SO allshall live. ''Consequently, then, as it was through one offense for all mankind for condemnation, thus also it isthrough one just award for all mankind for life's justifying. For even as, through the disobedience of theone man, the many were constituted sinners, thus also, through the obedience of the One, the many shallbe constituted just." Rom 5:18-19. Concordant Literal.

''For God has shut up all in unbelief, so that He might show mercy to all. O the depth of the richesboth of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways pastfinding out!'' Rom 11:32-33. MKJV.

''Every valley shall be lifted and filled up, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and thecrooked and uneven shall be made straight and level, and the rough places a plain. And the glory(majesty and splendor) of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth ofthe Lord has spoken it.'' Isa 40:4-5. Amplified. ''I have sworn by Myself, the word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness, and shall not return,

1


that to Me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.'' Isa 45:23. MKJV. ''Every valley and ravine shall be filled up, and every mountain and hill shall be leveled; and thecrooked places shall be made straight, and the rough roads shall be made smooth; And all mankindshall see (behold and understand and at last acknowledge) the salvation of God (the deliverance frometernal death decreed by God).'' Luke 3:5-6. Amplified. The wonderful provision that God is revealingto us whilst we are still experiencing the delusion of this this flesh experience is surely wonderful butknow this it will never be understood in the flesh, it will be only by the He, the Christ identity our TRUEIDENTITY within each of every one of us; when we have come to our time, when we are ready & that iswhen suddenly the penny drops & we realise that all we are observing with our five senses is aDELUSION. Now to return to the theme of our original heading.

A Heart That Is From Within, And Not An Entity Who Is Without Is What Defiles A Man!

''And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of theheart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness,deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness;'' Mark 7:20-22. Webster.

''And he said--`That which is coming out from the man, that doth defile the man; for from within, outof the heart of men, the evil reasoning's do come forth, adulteries, whoredoms, murders, thefts, covetousdesires, wickedness, deceit, arrogance, an evil eye, evil speaking, pride, foolishness;'' Mark 7:20-22.Young's Literal. For longer than we wish were not true the world of Christendom has sadly accepted the fact that it hasbeen ONE on the outside of us, an actual being known as Satan a SAW-TAWN that has been the problem.If we care to do a little searching we will find that God's solution to what maybe a dilemma to many isalways simple to those who are sincere searchers; The more profound the truth, amazingly the simpler italways is to the ready earnest seeker. satan saw-tawn' From H7853; an opponent; especially (with the article prefixed) Satan, the archenemy of good: - adversary, Satan, withstand. Much of the information in our biased references would goto much trouble to prove that it is a Satanic being & not just an adversary in the TRUE sense of themeaning yet the answer is so glaringly simple. The true translation of many theories that mostautomatically accept from our well known now somewhat out of date references & dare I say it evenConcordances which in my opinion are in some ways similarly infiltrated as the Jesus time traditionalbiased Sadducee-cal & Pharisaical points of view, which can also be compared or likened to our formerouter court & holy place understandings. The truth of the majority of what we are declaring can beproved simply by usage, which is the true context of the complete content of whatever the passages of thesubject that are in question. Religious tradition in any age has always been an enemy to progressivetruth. For instance in the following which we have afore mentioned in Part 77. ''And there stands up an adversary against Israel, and persuades David to number Israel,'' 1Ch 21:1.Concordant Literal. ''And there standeth up an adversary against Israel, and persuadeth David to number Israel,'' 1Ch21:1. Young's Literal.

''SATAN [an adversary] stood up against Israel and stirred up David to number Israel.'' 1Ch 21:1.Amp. Who does the Amplified plus the other two above versions clearly point out that the true meaningof Satan is? An adversary. What caused David to number Israel when it was strictly forbidden? If weare honest with ourselves we must condescend to the truth that it was nothing more than his lower fleshlyidentity. ''But David's heart smote him after he had numbered the people. David said to the Lord, I have

2


sinned greatly in what I have done. I beseech You, O Lord, take away the iniquity of Your servant, for Ihave done very foolishly.'' 2Sa 24:10. Amplified. Now the question needed is what caused David to do this? This was all from his Satan, his adversary,his traducer, his slanderer, his false accuser, his impatience, his flesh; Which comes from where? Thisdefiling came from within himself & not from any separate entity from outside himself; whichinformation in the past we have swallowed so glibly. According to Mark 7:20-22, we are told quitespecifically that it all comes from within & not from without. We are presenting this mainly from theMost Holy Place position. To remotely understand what we are advocating here we will need to throwaside every skerrick of our former outer court & holy place religiously inspired understandings. To dothis we need to be reminded of the words of Jesus. '' I have still many things to say to you, but you are not able to bear them or to take them upon you orto grasp them now.'' John 16:12. Amplified. This in my opinion would apply to us more than ever in this''salvation to be revealed in this last era'' 1Pet 1:5. Also. ''a sharer in the glory (the honour andsplendor) that is to be revealed (disclosed, unfolded):'' 1Pet 5:1b. The time was not for just then butmore than ever intended for the time of even now, this is what Jesus had in mind not just the time of thedisciples in which Jesus said that you are not ready ''to grasp them now.'' He knew that there was much,much more than even the disciples yet remotely understood to be dealt with than their infantile religiousperception at that time. To what I am seeing the religious world has been steeped in so much fleshlybeguiled enticement that it is incredibly-incredible to say the least. But in the words of Jesus we can saywith assurance, ''And he said--That which is coming out from the man, that defiles the man; for fromwithin, out of the heart of men, the evil reasoning's do come forth,'' Mark 7:20.

The True Identity Of The Snake!

''Now the snake was wiser than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to thewoman, Has God truly said that you may not take of the fruit of any tree in the garden? And the womansaid, We may take of the fruit of the trees in the garden: But of the fruit of the tree in the middle of thegarden, God has said, If you take of it or put your hands on it, death will come to you. And the snakesaid, Death will not certainly come to you: For God sees that on the day when you take of its fruit, youreyes will be open, and you will be as gods, having knowledge of good and evil. And when the womansaw that the tree was good for food, and a delight to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise, shetook of its fruit, and gave it to her husband. And their eyes were open'' Gen 3:1-7. Bible In BasicEnglish. Please notice that this was said only to the woman, also this whole setting is an analogy or typefor our instruction. Personally I think that anyone of us would have a hard time proving that any of thefirst three chapters of Genesis are in exact chronological order, which subject if we were to pursue itwould change our whole theme. We are referring to the subject of chronological order! The word serpent or snake carries with it the meanings of whisper, spell, enchanter, learn byexperience, diligently observe & is surprisingly related to the word Psyche in that the word beast orcreature is from H5315 which means SOUL OR PSYCHE. In connection with this, we find at the veryend of the 3rd verse of Amos 9 the words ''there I will command the serpent and it shall bite them.'' Ifwe read from the 1st verse the context is most interesting. If we think that we can escape from the realityof our mistaken identity & try to reach a higher plane in a snake or 'lower self' inspired way as Eve tried,he will cause the truth of our true fleshly identity the - serpent or snake - to bite us as it were to bring usback to the reality of that which is within us which is the culprit that ''defiles a man'' which is not aseparate being, SAW-TAWN or Satan which is one who is without. The moment that the psyche which is not Spirit - tries to entice us to believe that we can be flesh God's & that our eyes can be opened& that we ''will not surely die'' this deception would occur when listening to the snake even the psyche.The whole purpose here is to show us that the snake or serpent represent the natural mind which wouldtry to tell us anything but the truth, yes it would try to tell us that we can be like God in our natural manwhich has completely confused & led Christendom astray in an insidious religiosity, in that the depth ofthis is still being reached & uncovered; insomuch that our deceptions in the outer court & holy place

3


experiences have become such realities to the religious; Such is the power of the creative mind of man.It is that which is within that defiles a man & not a separate SAW-TAWN that is without which thedeceived religious world would advocate & that is He is on the inside of every man. The only truth inthis is that the true reality of the word adversary is not a being called a literal Satan who is on the insideof us but is simply our lower mistaken fleshly identity! This remains a fact no matter what religioustradition has been passed onto us in the past. In Part 77 we made mention of the stones as per Mt 3:9. ''And you should not be presuming to be saying among yourselves, 'For a father we have Abraham,'for I am saying to you that able is God, out of these stones to rouse children to Abraham.'' Mat 3:9.CLV. We also mentioned that the hardest stone is man's lowered identity or flesh nature ''that wage waragainst the soul'' in opening the word recently I was pleasantly surprised in seeing the following versestaring at me ''A new heart will I give you and a new spirit will I put within you, and I will take away the stonyheart out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.'' Eze 36:26. Amp. ''and do not think to say within yourselves, We have Abraham as our father. For I say to you that Godis able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.'' Mat 3:9. MKJV.

The Eating From The Tree!

An important point that needs to be considered is that when when the original Adam was created He wasboth male & female made after God's Own likeness. Gen 1:27, 5:1. This was of course before they werelowered & separated, which of course God always being many steps ahead of man used this in His perfectwill, Rom 8:20, Rom 8:32, Gal 3:22. This separated woman who was parted from her male counterpartbegan to think in a lower realm. This snake, serpent i.e. lowered flesh that which was without theoriginal Image, the Christ life-force & had no force other than her very own, this will give us someunderstanding as to how our very own fleshly deceiving religious thoughts are activated from within.The result of this deception was that in verse 7 the eyes of them both were opened & they knew that theywere naked; We ask again where were these thoughts derived? For in verse 11 the Lord God asks,''Who told you that you were naked?'' Then in verse 13 we find an important key as to how the loweredself the false identity has been for so long putting the blame on Mame, hear the age old statement thatoriginated right here ''The serpent - snake beguiled, cheated, outwitted, and deceived me, and I ate.''13b Amplified. Please notice the confession even then which put the blame on another & called it aseparate adversary one on the outside & not ''from that which is within'' this way of thinkingunfortunately has not altered one iota among the religiously deceived even until this day.

''The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?'' Jer 17:9.MKJV. ''Who told you that you were naked?'' The most unfortunate thing is that Eve believed her ownlowered identity which is the snake or serpent. In contrast the wonderful truth still remains the samewhich is. ''As far as the East is from the West, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.'' Ps103:12.

Long has my soul been boundHeld in chains of death,

And this heavy bodyDependant on my breath;

Chained to the earth for foodThat's in my natural life,Against these limitations

My spirit ever strives.

Leaving Home And Father And Mother!

''If anyone comes to Me & does not hate his father & mother [in the sense of indifference to or relativedisregard for them in comparison with his attitude toward God] &[ likewise] his wife & children &brothers & sisters[yes] & even his own life alsohe cannot be my disciple.'' Lk 14:26. Amp. WhenGod first called Saul out of Judaism, it was a mighty upheaval in his life; As far as he was concerned hewas totally convinced that there was nothing else. But as always God was on the move. He later wroteabout it in the in the book of Galatians. Notice that Paul lays stress on the word hate, as do mostversions. We all have spiritual roots where people, peoples or some group, be it a denomination, organisation orsect where we have been nursed, cared for or parented, by spiritual fathers & mothers as it were. Thespiritual background, organisation or mother of Paul the apostle was Judaism. Suddenly God decides toseparate him from this organisation where he has been nurtured all his life, severed from his motherswomb as it were. The Greek diaglott puts it this way. ''that having set apart me from womb of motherof me, & having called through the favour of himself, to reveal the son of himself in me, so that Imight announce him to the nations.'' Gal 1:15-16. In other words Paul was separated from his old religious order, a giant step but God wanted Him outonce & for all never to return. Some would affirm that he preached in the synagogue, of course he did,but did he fellowship with them in the old way, NO, a thousand times NO. Read the 6th chapter of thebook of Hebrews. God separated him to share a new message. To unveil His Son in me. So manycould make it much easier on themselves if they would only realise that God is moving us on into higherunderstandings, He is not so much trying to take away from us, but of course in the adding to us, theformer that related to our old order, our father & mother understandings will automatically disappear.At times what can be good for others, is not always profitable to us. We need to leave our father &mother!

Arabia In The Wilderness!

It was no coincidence that the first thing that Paul did after he was called, he retired to Arabia, the wordArabia actually means wilderness. He was there for some time. Considering the road to Damascas & allthe proceeding experiences he needed time to be alone. After we hear from God on important issues, weneed to confer not with flesh & blood but to spend time on what is being shown us, retire as it were into awilderness experience. Why is it sometimes better not to confer with flesh blood, or in other words talkto our friends? We need to let God establish truth in us. Most of the time Gods will & opinion is quitedifferent from well meaning friends, advisors & relatives. ''If anyone comes to me & does not hate his father & mother [in the sense of indifference to orrelative disregard for them in comparison with his attitude towards God] & [likewise] his wife &children & brothers & sisters ---[yes] & even his own life also --- he cannot be my disciple.'' Lk 14:26.Amp. In the light of what we are seeing today I feel this above verse would apply very strongly.

Lord lift me up and let me stand,By faith, on heavens table-land,

A higher plane than I have found,Lord plant my feet on higher ground.

The higher ground within ourselves begins not so much with our natural mind but from that sense of whatthe Spirit would be saying to us in our own spirit. ''You will keep him in perfect peace, whose - spiritual - mind is stayed on You; because he trusts inYou.'' Isa 26:3. MKJV. ''Be still and know that the I - that is in you is God'' Ps 46:10a KJV. Theword am is in italics & is not in the original. But then again let us leave the first part of this verse exactlyas it is written in the KJV & consider it in the true sense of our Most Holy Place experience in where we

5


are today. ''Be still, and know that I am God.''

Wise Words From A Sage!

''Man is lord of all the plane of manifests; of protoplast, of mineral, of plant, of beast; but he has given uphis birthright, just to gratify his lower self, his carnal self. But man will full regain his lost estate, his heritage; but he must do it in a conflict that cannot be toldin words. Yea, he must suffer trials and temptations manifold; but let him know that cherubim and seraphim thatrule the stations of the sun, and spirits of the mighty God who rule the solar stars are his protectors andhis guides and they will lead to victory. Dan 4:17. Man will be fully saved, redeemed, perfected by the things he suffers on the plane of flesh, and on theplane of soul..... Thus hope will ever be his beacon light; there is no failure for the human soul, for God is leading onand victory is sure. Rom 8:20. Man cannot die; the spirit man is one with God, and while God lives man cannot die. When man has conquered every foe upon the plane of soul the seed will have full opened out, willhave unfolded in the Holy Breath. The garb of soul will then have served its purpose well, and man will need it never more, and it willpass and be no more. And man will then attain unto the blessedness of perfectness and be at one with God.''

The Ark Of The Covenant Within Ourselves!

''And Joshua said to the people, Hallow yourselves; for to-morrow Jehovah will do wonders in yourmidst. And Joshua spoke to the priests, saying, Take up the ark of the covenant, and go over before thepeople. And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people. And Jehovah said toJoshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that as I waswith Moses, so will I be with thee'' Joshua 3:5-7. Darby. ''And Joshua said to the people, Sanctify yourselves [that is, separate yourselves for a special holypurpose], for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you. Joshua said to the priests, Take up the arkof the covenant and pass over before the people. And they took it up and went on before the people. TheLord said to Joshua, This day I will begin to magnify you in the sight of all Israel, so they may knowthat as I was with Moses, so I will be with you.'' Joshua 3:5-7. Amplified.

As most of us are aware the bible is full of types & analogies, no matter where we are in our walk withGod, with each stage that we are in the other stage rarely finds it easy to understand the other. Thedilemma is that each think that they are perfectly right & find it difficult to give credit to the other. Theenlightenment we have been given on this passage is strictly for those who have realised that the templethat God inhabits is a live temple ''Ye are the temple of God.'' The only reason that the presence of Godis felt in any structural building as ''He does not dwell in buildings made with hands'' is not so muchbecause of His favour with the building but because He is in His live dwelling places. This of course isreferring to His people, who are His temple - & that is the only reason for His presence in any particularmortar wood & bricks building - for it is they who bring the presence of God. Some may disagree withthis but the realisation of this truth will begin to set us free.

The first command that Joshua gave was for the people to sanctify or separate themselves for a specialpurpose, ''for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you'' this we would apply to ourselves today inother words, today is yesterdays tomorrow, we are applying this to those of us who are called into thewonderful non-religious Most Holy Place experience which is within ourselves. In the Joshua Ch 6

6


verses above we notice - to my mind - a most important point & that is they were to take up the ark of thecovenant this was of the utmost importance. This to us today would be telling us that in doing this weare bringing the mighty Holy delivering power of God among, or more potently within ourselves ''as Iwas with Moses, so I will be with you.'' Is this not similar to the promise given to the man-child who iscaught up unto God and to His throne. The miraculous that awaits us far surpasses all that we haveexperienced to date; If you are happy with what you have, I declare with a loving heart to all that arereading this I am not! We are looking for more, & may I add we should never become satisfied, ''As Iwas with Moses so will I be with you'' ''where sin abounds grace does much more abound.'' When God instructed Moses to face Pharaoh the king of Egypt this was no small thing for he Pharaohhad the people of Israel & the whole land under his complete control but God had promised Moses that hewould make him ''as God to Pharaoh'' Exodus 7:1a. ''he will not only let them go but he will drivethem out of his land with a strong hand'' Exodus 6:1b, this is actually referring to Pharaoh showing whatGod would do through the acts performed through Moses when Pharaoh would be compelled to do thewill of God. ''And Moses said to God, Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out ofEgypt? God said, I will surely be with you; and this shall be the sign to you that I have sent you: whenyou have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain [Horeb, or Sinai].''Exodus 3:11-12. Amplified. A mountain experience was the promise to Moses; Should we expectanything less for Gods chosen corporate body even in this third day. The Most Holy Place people of God have realised that they have the possession of the ark of Godwithin themselves. As Moses became God to Pharaoh we are told; ''as I was with Moses, so I will bewith you.'' Is it too much to expect that in this last day as was prophesied as the greatest move of all timethat the man-child that is born from the woman will become as God to a world that is facing the greatesttime of suffering ''the worst in all of history'' Dan 12:1. Beloved there is a greater than even Mosesready to fully appear God Himself in His Corporate Christ will manifest Himself as God to the likePharaohs of today. We may be like Moses & say ''Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring theIsraelites out of Egypt'' this is the attitude of a future manifested son of God. For example take a look atthe life of Jacob; even though he lacked in his attitude & was subtle & most conniving there was much inhim to be desired, he was a hand picked vessel & as with all his children God delights in bringing themto perfection, His own way, we are so fortunate that God looks on the heart, oh you Jacobs who arereading this if God so desires He can also make you into an Israel, do not underestimate the will & thepower of God. ''Again God said to him, Your name is Jacob [supplanter]; you shall not be called Jacob any longer,but Israel shall be your name. So He called him Israel [contender with God].'' Gen 35:10. Amp.

A Wonderful Child Is Born!

''For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be on His shoulder; and Hisname shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince ofPeace.'' Isa 9:6. MKJV. Recently we wrote on Michael the Archangel, the Chief Angel, & according to the Bible the onlyArchangel. As we have mentioned that in what we are declaring that alarm bells will begin in your mindbecause of what a well known movement have declared for a number of years. I personally have wellceased from wiping any movement in judgement, in the light of what I now see there is not onemovement that does not have within itself certain truths albeit they may have been abused by putting afence around those truths & in doing so now have a deformed exaggerated slant on what may have beenright at the start. Incidentally Michael in several translations is described as the Chief of the angels asexplained in detail in our recent Part 78. Incidentally according to scripture you can hunt from cover to cover & you will not find any scripturalevidence for any-more than ONE Archangel who is Michael alone. No other angel is referred to as anArchangel & that will no doubt surprise some, I repeat, this includes ALL other angels. Incidentally the

7


Angel that spoke to Moses when he received the oracles was none other than Michael the Angel of theLord, Acts7:38. Now to continue with something that was given to me only recently in relation to this very wonderfulsubject. ''And the Angel of Jehovah said to Manoah, Though you keep Me, I will not eat of your bread. And ifyou will offer a burnt offering, you must offer it to Jehovah. For Manoah did not know that He was theAngel of Jehovah. And Manoah said to the Angel of Jehovah, What is Your name, so that when Yoursayings come to pass we may do You honor? And the Angel of Jehovah said to him, Why do you ask afterMy name in this way? Yea, it is Wonderful. And Manoah took a kid with a food offering, and offered itupon a rock to Jehovah, and did wonderfully. And Manoah and his wife looked on. For it happenedwhen the flame went up toward heaven from off the altar, the Angel of Jehovah went up in the flame ofthe altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on it and fell on their faces to the ground. But the Angel ofJehovah did not appear any more to Manoah and to his wife. Then Manoah knew that He was an Angelof Jehovah. And Manoah said to his wife, We shall surely die because we have seen God.'' Judges13:16-22. MKJV; Please notice two things in the above reading. First this Angel tells us that His name is Wonderful;Secondly Manoah makes the statement; We shall surely die because we have seen God. Who can thisAngel of Jehovah be? We already have the answer in 1Thess 4:16. We are told that when God speaks Hespeaks with the voice of the only Archangel which is Michael.

''For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel andwith the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ shall rise first.'' 1Th 4:16.MKJV. In what we have readalready we wish to prove that this Angel is the Angel of the Lord & furthermore He states in the abovepassage that His name is Wonderful. Manoah knew that He was an Angel of Jehovah... - he then - saidto his wife, We shall surely die because we have seen God.'' Now consider this that in the light of Isa9:6. only one has the right to be called Wonderful. ''For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be on His shoulder; and Hisname shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince ofPeace.'' Isa 9:6. MKJV. Who is this angel? The Lord Jesus Christ has many ways of expressingHimself, before He was born as a man in Bethlehem He had many ways of revealing Himself, somedescribe them as theophanies. A theophany is actually - a visible manifestation of a divine being - thisArchangel Michael if we look closely, revealed Himself in many ways & even as we have observed wasnot remiss in taking the title of Wonderful. As far as I am concerned He is none other than the one foundin Isa 9:6. ''For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be on His shoulder; andHis name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Princeof Peace.''

The Resurrection Of Truth!

According to the following a significant meaning of the word resurrection is the recovery of spiritualtruth.''G386 anastasis an-as'-tas-is From G450; a standing up again, that is, (literally) aresurrection from death (individual, general or by implication (its author)), or (figuratively) a (moral)recovery (of spiritual truth): - raised to life again, resurrection, rise from the dead, that should rise,rising again.'' Are we not being raised to life again in & with Morning Star Truth? Job 38:7. To further the thoughtof there being one within & not an entity who is without who is our problem we present the following.When it comes to false prophets many would give the credit to one who is without called Satan havingbeen the cause, let us now consider what the scripture would say on this subject.

8


''And Jehovah said to him, With what? And he said, I will go forth and will be a lying spirit in themouth of all his prophets. And He said, You shall entice him and succeed also. Go forth and do so. Andnow, behold, Jehovah has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets, and Jehovah hasspoken evil concerning you.'' 1Ki 22:22-23. MKJV. If you take the time to read the above chapter toverse 28 you will read an amazing account of one true prophet of God Micaiah against 400 false prophets& nowhere do we read anywhere that a Satan SAW-TAWN was responsible for the false prophets but that''Jehovah has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets, and Jehovah has spoken evilconcerning you.'' ''And he said, I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets . And Jehovah said,You shall tempt him, and you are able. Go out and do so. And now behold, Jehovah has put a lyingspirit in the mouth of these your prophets, and Jehovah has spoken evil against you.'' 2Chron 18:21-22.MKJV. Here we read of the same account in 2Chronicles & once again God takes the responsibility of puttinga lying spirit in the mouth of these prophets, please notice that Satan does not get a mention; Have we yetunderstood why? The answer to all of what we think are contradictions is found as we open heartedlyseek the truths of God. I personally cannot find one text which tells us that a being called Satan was theinstigator or the cause of any false prophet, - we can of course twist some texts in Revelation to suit ourown way of thinking - but as we have read in the above that God, yes Jehovah Himself has been the causeof false prophets. ''Behold I Am the Creator of all things.''

Can you find anywhere in the scriptures where an outside force known as Satan is given credit forthis? The only place is in the book of Revelation where opinion & interpretation differs so much on thissubject it becomes ridiculous; Why is this so? I quote here our heading ''A heart that is from within,and not an entity who is without is what defiles a man! Let us now consider the instance of Caleb inopposition to the majority of the rest of Israel who were against him. In my strong opinion we need tokeep in mind here that both Caleb & Joshua & their followers are representing the corporate entity of theOne in the 5th verse & the 12th chapter of the book of the revelation of Jesus Christ. ''But truly, as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of Jehovah. Because all those menwho have seen My glory and My miracles which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness, and have temptedMe now these ten times, and have not listened to My voice, surely they shall not see the land which Iswore to their fathers, neither shall any of them that provoked Me see it. But My servant Caleb,because he had another spirit with him, and has followed Me fully, I will bring him into the land intowhich he went. And his seed shall possess it.'' Num 14:21-24. MKJV. We see here that God ispronouncing judgement on those who provoked Him which bears out the fact of the following ''I will goout and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.'' or ''Jehovah has put a lying spirit in themouth of these your prophets.''

''But My servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and has followed Me fully, I will bringhim into the land into which he went. And his seed shall possess it.'' Num 14:24. MKJV. ''Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people saying, Pass through the host, and commandthe people, saying, Prepare food for yourselves, for within three days you are crossing over this Jordan,to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God is giving you to possess it.'' Joshua 1:10-11. MKJV. Is it only coincidence that Joshua states that ''within three days you are...to possess the land'' or is it aspecific prophecy of divine origin for us to take to ourselves in this third day & age; I personally believeimplicitly in the latter.

Is God In And Through All Things?

''Is it not out of the mouth of the Most High that evil and good both proceed [adversity and prosperity,physical evil or misfortune and physical good or happiness]?'' Lam 3:38. Amplified. Today most are

advocating that good must fight the evil & that God is against that which we would call evil. We wouldask the question; Is He using the evil for His own purpose of which He is in & through all things? Ifwe care to look at a number of translations they would agree with the Amplified. I will quote several &then if you wish you can check for your own satisfaction. ''Do not evil and good come from the mouth of the Most High?'' Lam 3:38. Bible In Basic English. ''Do not both the evil and the good come forth from the mouth of the Supreme?'' Lam 3:38 C.L.V. ''Out of the mouth of the Most High doth not there proceed evil and good?'' Lam 3:38. Darby. ''Good and bad each happen at the command of God Most High.'' Lam 3:38. Contemporary English. ''No one can say something and make it happen, unless the Lord orders it.'' ''God Most Highcommands both good and bad things to happen.'' Lam 3:37-38. E.R.V. ''Good and evil alike take place at his command.'' Lam 3:38. Good News Bible. ''Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil and good?'' Lam. 3:38. K.J.V. Please noticethe question mark which completely alters the connotation of the whole text.

The Seeming Reality Of A Delusion!

The only thing that is not delusional is that which is never ending, that which is everlasting. All that weobserve with the five senses is not lasting, it has an ending to it, it is delusional, but wonderful news ourGod in Whose Image we were created is everlasting, yes there is a part of & in every human being that isnot delusional, that is it will never cease to exist. We all of us are being judged into a higher realm, thejudgements of God are for our own everlasting good we are actually being judged into a higher realm ofunderstanding. We are actually being judged from a five sensed delusional experience into a victoriousnon-delusional everlasting understanding by the wonderful, glorious judgement of God. ''BUT [in the midst of judgement there is the promise and the certainty of the Lord's deliveranceand] there shall be no gloom for her who was in anguish. In the former time [the Lord] brought intocontempt the land of Zebulun - Jacob's territory - and the land of Naphtali, - fight or struggle - but in thelatter time He will make it glorious, by the way of the Sea [of Galilee, the land] beyond the Jordan,Galilee of the nations. The people who walked in darkness have seen a great Light; those who dwelt inthe land of intense darkness and the shadow of death, upon them has the Light shined.'' Isa 9:1-2.Amp. See also Isa. 42:6-7 Matt. 4:15-16. ''The judgements of God are past finding out.'' Rom11:33b. A delusion is a deception that is when we think that something is so, or is real when it is not. I haverecently been through a physical experience of a fleshly delusion or even an illusion, which if I believethat all things are of God it was a great experiential lesson to aid in what we are writing. Our greatChrist is in & through all things. ''Behold I create both good and evil''

''A heart that is within, and not an entity who is without is what defiles a man!''
