GOD's Declaration in the Little Book

Regarding the Little Book in Revelation Chapter 10, there are usually several different opinions. Some say it is the Book of Revelation itself, some say it is the Book of Daniel, and some even say it is the Book of Enoch. But since no one has ever come forward to publicly claim that GOD gave him the confirmation, all these statements nothing more than HUMAN SPECULATIONS. However, on Page 20 of the Book "Revealing The Bible's Truth", in the first paragraph under the subtitle "This Book", it is stated as below:

And, although the title of THIS BOOK is "Revealing The Bible's Truth", GOD SAYS that THIS BOOK in HEAVEN is referred to as the "LITTLE BOOK".

Coverage to The Bible - the BIG BOOK

Since GOD'S PURPOSE of the Little Book is to correct our MISINTERPRETATIONS and MISUNDERSTANDINGS of The Bible - the BIG BOOK, it is necessary for us to know HOW MANY BIBLE VERSES are explained in THIS SPECIFIC BOOK. In the table below, the number in the column "Total Verses Explained" represents HOW MANY BIBLE VERSES in total are explained for any particular book of the Bible. However, because the Bible has MULTIPLE LAYERS of meaning, some Bible verses are explained more than once. To be rigorous, we can also count each Bible verse only once, even if it is explained multiple times. The numbers counted in this way appear in the column "Unique Verses".

The 4 Books as the Little Book Set

GOD'S DECLARATION of the Little Book appears ONLY in the Book "Revealing The Bible's Truth". However, after the Little Book, the author wrote THREE OTHER Books: "The Rod of Iron", "Revelation the Fourth Son", "Mystery Babylon the Great Whore". Although the OTHER THREE Books don't have the same GOD'S DECLARATION as what the Little Book has on its page 20, it is obvious that they continue the task of the Little Book, which is to Reveal The Bible's TRUTH. The OTHER THREE Books has the same WRITING STYLE, the same SPEAKING TONE, the same ANOINTING, the same AUTHORITY, and the same PURPOSE, as the Little Book. Without the OTHER THREE Books, it is impossible for a Christian to be FULLY CORRECTED from his MISINTERPRETATIONS and MISUNDERSTANDINGS of The Bible - the BIG BOOK. Therefore, just as The Bible comprises many books to convey its COMPLETE message, the Little Book must be united with the OTHER THREE Books to form the full Little Book Set. Only when these FOUR BOOKS are taken together does the intended message become COMPLETE. The Little Book Set consists of the following FOUR BOOKS:

Season to Explain the Little Book Set

Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is A SEASON, and A TIME to every purpose under the heaven:

When Robert WROTE the BOOKS, when THE LORD used to TALK to him, and when he PUBLISHED the BOOKS, that was the RIGHT TIME. And everything has A SEASON, now the BOOKS are WRITTEN. And NOW is the TIME of EXPLAINING what was WRITTEN in the BOOKS, and OTHER THINGS of GOD, and even MORE THINGS BURIED in THE HOLY BIBLE.

The above is the DIRECT WORD of GOD in a message titled NOTHING IS FOR CERTAIN: By THE LORD of HOSTS . The message was published by A SPECIAL SERVANT of GOD on 2015-01-15. He has a similar HIGH RANK as Robert, and that specific date was THREE YEARS before Robert's death. According to the above, GOD mentioned TWO STAGES: the FIRST STAGE is to PUBLISH the Little Book Set, the SECOND STAGE is to EXPLAIN. And regarding what must BE EXPLAINED, GOD clearly identifies THREE THINGS: the first is to EXPLAIN "what was WRITTEN in the BOOKS", namely the Four Books authored by Robert, the Little Book Set; the second is to EXPLAIN "OTHER THINGS of GOD"; the third is to EXPLAIN "MORE THINGS BURIED in THE HOLY BIBLE". The 182 MINISTRY provides the PRINT VERSION of the Little Book Set, while the 151 MINISTRY provides the DIGITAL VERSION and its corresponding DIGITAL TOOLS for the PURPOSE of EXPLAINING the THREE THINGS stated by THE LORD of HOSTS in above.

The 151 Ministry after the 182 Ministry

The 182 MINISTRY of Robert is the ministry of a DELIVERER, and its purpose is to PUBLISH the Little Book Set. The 151 MINISTRY of GOD'S ANOINTED is the ministry of Jesus Christ, and its purpose is to EXPLAIN the THREE THINGS mentioned above, beginning with the Little Book Set. The 182 MINISTRY is PRIVILEGED, it can only be carried out by a DELIVERER. However, the 151 MINISTRY is OPEN, it can be carried out by anyone who follows Jesus, while BEING ANOINTED with at least three gifts of the Holy Spirit. Even the ministry of the 144,000 Tribulation Saints belongs to the 151 MINISTRY. However, the majority of the Tribulation Saints shall manifest themselves in the SECOND STAGE of the End Times. Those who have awakened in the CURRENT FIRST STAGE of the End Times must PREPARE THE WAY for the 144,000 Tribulation Saints, just as John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus. This HTML File is created by those of the 151 MINISTRY for the PURPOSE to PREPARE THE WAY for the 144,000 Tribulation Saints.

Introduction

After writing and having published my last book, Revelation The Fourth Son, I had thought that my writing had been completed for THE LORD. However, on January 18th 2007 some three years afterwards, THE LORD indicated that another book needed to be written, and its title was to be "Mystery Babylon, The Great Whore". At that time I asked THE LORD to please give me a CONFIRMATION so I would know it was HE who was inspiring me to write the book, and not my own imagination inspiring me to do so. On Sunday, January 21st 2007, THE LORD gave me that CONFIRMATION. On the morning of January 22nd 2007 I was awakened at approximately 4:00AM and told by GOD to start my writing.

As with my other three books, this book will have no outline to follow, nor is there any specific guidelines of what the book will say in its contents. I just write that which THE HOLY SPIRIT dictates to me. Some of the readers of the previous three books have complained regarding the changes in type style that occur routinely throughout my books, thus making it difficult for them to read. However this phenomenon occurs during my writing via THE HOLY SPIRIT, and is not of my own doing, but rather the way that GOD intends for these books to be written.

As has been said in the previous books, the changes in type style KEY the intended READER'S SPIRIT to RECEIVE the SPIRITUAL MESSAGE that is encrypted into the book's text. This book is not intended for everyone! Therefore, if you find these changes in type style to be annoying, then unfortunately you are not an intended reader. This book, as with the other three books, are written for three specific groups of PEOPLE: the BRIDE (GOD'S CHILDREN), the WEDDING GUESTS (GOD'S PEOPLE, ISRAEL) and the BEHEADED SOULS (GOD'S Martyrs), who die for refusing to accept the "Mark of the Beast" and for refusing to DENOUNCE GOD and the TESTIMONY of JESUS CHRIST. Therefore, if you do not fall into one of these specific categories of people, you will not only find this book difficult to read, but will rather find it to be downright OFFENSIVE regarding your particular beliefs.

There will be several subjects covered in this book, most of which relate to a man-made religious order and the erroneous beliefs in GOD relating to that religious order. The HOLY BIBLE is quite clear in both the NEW and OLD TESTAMENTS regarding how YOU should both serve and worship GOD. And, how the FALSE TEACHING of the WORD of GOD will bring about HELL FIRE, ETERNAL DAMNATION, and the WRATH of GOD, to those individuals perpetrating that FALSE TEACHING.

Revelation 2:18 AND UNTO THE ANGEL OF THE CHURCH IN THY-A-TI'-RA WRITE; THESE THINGS SAITH THE SON OF GOD, WHO HATH HIS EYES LIKE UNTO A FLAME OF FIRE, AND HIS FEET ARE LIKE FINE BRASS;

Revelation 2:19 I KNOW THY WORKS, AND CHARITY, AND SERVICE, AND FAITH, AND THY PATIENCE, AND THY WORKS; AND THE LAST TO BE MORE THAN THE FIRST.

Revelation 2:20 NOTWITHSTANDING I HAVE A FEW THINGS AGAINST THEE, BECAUSE THOU SUFFEREST THAT WOMAN JEZ'-E-BEL, WHICH CALLETH HERSELF A PROPHETESS, TO TEACH AND TO SEDUCE MY SERVANTS TO COMMIT FORNICATION, AND TO EAT THINGS SACRIFICED UNTO IDOLS.

Revelation 2:21 AND I GAVE HER SPACE TO REPENT OF HER FORNICATION; AND SHE REPENTED NOT.

Revelation 2:22 BEHOLD, I WILL CAST HER INTO A BED, AND THEM THAT COMMIT ADULTERY WITH HER INTO GREAT TRIBULATION, EXCEPT THEY REPENT OF THEIR DEEDS.

Revelation 2:23 AND I WILL KILL HER CHILDREN WITH DEATH; AND ALL THE CHURCHES SHALL KNOW THAT I AM HE WHICH SEARCHETH THE REINS AND HEARTS: AND I WILL GIVE UNTO EVERY ONE OF YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR WORKS.

I have personally attended several Christian churches where FALSE TEACHING of the WORD of GOD is part of the Church doctrine and done routinely. As a matter of fact, I have yet to find a church without major fault in what they teach. Some are better than others, however they all have MAJOR FAULTS! One should not think that just because they attend a Christian church that they are in some way exempt from this problem. Nor should the Church congregation think GOD would not hold them accountable for following this false doctrine. It is CLEARLY stated in the preceding scriptures, GOD will hold both the Church and YOU and your CHILDREN accountable, even though YOU believe YOU are serving GOD. For YOU are not!

All Christian churches are suppose to be teaching from the same HOLY BIBLE, which is the King James 1611. All other translations are bogus and were created by the Devil to DECEIVE you. This BOOK will show by scripture how the churches teach their own doctrine and not the WORD of GOD. This is a very serious matter and shouldn't be taken lightly, for if you subscribe to the church doctrine and deviate from the TRUE WORD of GOD, you will most certainly go to HELL!

Most churches will try to justify their doctrine by saying JESUS CHRIST changed these things when HE came to the EARTH, however JESUS said that he came to fulfill the WORD of GOD, not to change it.

Matthew 5:17 THINK NOT THAT I AM COME TO DESTROY THE LAW, OR THE PROPHETS: I AM NOT COME TO DESTROY, BUT TO FULFIL.

Matthew 5:18 FOR VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, TILL HEAVEN AND EARTH PASS, ONE JOT OR ONE TITTLE SHALL IN NO WISE PASS FROM THE LAW, TILL ALL BE FULFILLED.

The churches will often try to support their false doctrine by use of the Epistles written by the Apostles. However the Epistles are NOT the WORD of GOD and are poorly written. Also, the interpreting of the Epistles into the English language are not clear as are the GOSPELS of JESUS CHRIST, and lead to much confusion and deception.

It was the Early Church who insisted that King James included the Epistles in the Canon we call the HOLY BIBLE. So the King capitulated to the Church and included them. The Church also tried to discourage King James from including the Book of Revelation in the Canon, for they said it conflicted with their teachings of JESUS CHRIST. However, King James was TOLD by THE HOLY SPIRIT to include the Book of Revelation, so he did. The entire Book of Revelation is dedicated to warning the Churches against their false teaching and it was JESUS CHRIST who gave the VISION to JOHN for him to write. So why would the Church want to omit it?

In this book WE will also cover some other subjects such as; the RAPTURE, and why most Christian religions fail to believe in it; Non-Christian religions and the basis for their beliefs; the story of the childhood of JESUS CHRIST, birth to BAPTISM, is it a myth or REALITY? The birth of religion, its source of origin and how the Devil uses RELIGION to DECEIVE and CORRUPT the WORD of GOD. This is the basis for the writing of this book. May THE LORD guide YOU through it, OPEN your EYES and allow YOU to RECEIVE the MESSAGE within. A-men'.

Foreword

The word "church" is only mentioned three times in the GOSPELS of JESUS CHRIST, and is not mentioned at all in the GOSPELS of JOHN or MARK However, nearly every child is told from birth that they must attend a church to have a relationship with GOD. I was told that you must go to church to establish your relationship with GOD from early on in my life, and that the Church was the house of GOD. I believed this for many years, and the reason I believed what I was being told was because I had never read the HOLY BIBLE for MYSELF.

After THE LORD came to me in October of 1997, I was TOLD to buy a (King James 1611) HOLY BIBLE and since then I have READ it from cover to cover, including the Epistles, many, many times. I READ from 4 to 6 hours each and every day. As I became more familiar with the SCRIPTURES it became apparent to me that most of which the Church teaches CONFLICTS with that which is taught by JESUS CHRIST. I also realized that what was being taught by the churches, was RELIGION, based on each particular Church's religious doctrine. Some of which is so far fetched and inconsistent with the HOLY BIBLE, that it is a BLASPHEMY of JESUS CHRIST and the WORD of GOD.

As you proceed through the chapters of this book it will be pointed out to you by SCRIPTURE the many things you are taught to do by the Church that are not only in ERROR with the TEACHINGS of JESUS CHRIST, but are CONSISTENT with that which JESUS CHRIST SPECIFICALLY FORBIDS. IN this BOOK WE will give you SCRIPTURE to measure your Church's Doctrine against, to see for yourselves just how far your particular Church deviates from the TEACHING of JESUS CHRIST. WE will not ask YOU to accept OUR opinions but to rather measure your Church's activity based on the WORD of GOD, and either ACCEPT or DENY the TRUTH, based on SCRIPTURE, and not on OPINION!

I had always thought of the Church as being a place that you can go to establish a relationship with GOD. However, after READING the HOLY BIBLE it was made clear to ME that the "TRUE CHURCH" is rather a GROUP of PEOPLE coming together whom already has a RELATIONSHIP with GOD. It was also made CLEAR to ME by SCRIPTURE that for one to have a RELATIONSHIP with GOD they MUST FIRST RECEIVE the WORD of GOD, and that the WORD of GOD is JESUS CHRIST, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR!

John 1:1 In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with GOD, and the WORD was GOD.

John 1:14 And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld HIS GLORY, the GLORY as of the only begotten of the FATHER,) full of GRACE and TRUTH.

If you were to ask a person as to whether or not they had a relationship with GOD, that person would more than likely respond by telling you how often they either attended or did not attend a Church. Depending on whether they attended and believed they had a relationship with GOD or did not attend a Church and for that reason they believed they had not a relationship with GOD. Therefore measuring their relationship with GOD or lack of, by how often they attended a Church. There is nothing FURTHER from the TRUTH than this mindset!

A person can only have a RELATIONSHIP with GOD through JESUS CHRIST, and JESUS CHRIST is the WORD of GOD and the WORD of GOD is the HOLY BIBLE. Therefore if someone were to ask ME if I had a RELATIONSHIP with GOD, I would say YES, most certainly, for I READ the HOLY BIBLE each and every day of my LIFE and try to live within the SCRIPTURES. I also JUDGE MYSELF based on how closely I adhere to the SCRIPTURES. I needn't have a Priest or Pastor tell ME what I should or shouldn't do, for I RECEIVE HOLY SPIRIT GUIDANCE through JESUS CHRIST, the WORD of GOD.

GOD had the HOLY BIBLE (JESUS CHRIST) written for HIS CHILDREN and HIS PEOPLE, and the most MARVELOUS part about the NEW COVENANT, which JESUS brought to the EARTH, is that no one needs to rely on any other person for their SALVATION, only GOD through JESUS CHRIST.

Isaiah 55:1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

The WATERS spoken of in Isaiah 55:1 are the LIVING WATERS, the WORD of GOD spoken of by JESUS CHRIST in the GOSPEL of JOHN.

John 4:10 JESUS answered and said unto her, IF THOU KNEWEST THE GIFT OF GOD, AND WHO IT IS THAT SAITH TO THEE, GIVE ME TO DRINK; THOU WOULDEST HAVE ASKED OF HIM, AND HE WOULD HAVE GIVEN THEE LIVING WATER.

As previously said, the "TRUE CHURCH" are a group of people already having a RELATIONSHIP with GOD being put together in BROTHERHOOD by GOD, and sharing in the WORD of GOD, JESUS CHRIST. JESUS says there is only ONE SHEPHERD "THE GOOD SHEPHERD" and ONE FLOCK. The ONE SHEPHERD is JESUS CHRIST, the HOLY BIBLE, and the ONE FLOCK is the "TRUE CHURCH", them who LIVE by SCRIPTURE.

John 10:14 I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD, AND KNOW MY SHEEP, AND AM KNOWN OF MINE.

John 10:15 AS THE FATHER KNOWETH ME, EVEN SO KNOW I THE FATHER: AND I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR THE SHEEP.

John 10:16 AND OTHER SHEEP I HAVE, WHICH ARE NOT OF THIS FOLD: THEM ALSO I MUST BRING, AND THEY SHALL HEAR MY VOICE; AND THERE SHALL BE ONE FOLD, AND ONE SHEPHERD.

The ONE SHEPHERD is the HOLY BIBLE and the ONE FLOCK (FOLD) is them who LIVE by SCRIPTURE. When JESUS was confronted by the Devil and challenged as to whether HE could change a stone into bread, JESUS responded by saying that man does not live by bread alone but by EVERY WORD of GOD.

Matthew 4:4 But HE answered and said, IT IS WRITTEN, MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.

JESUS CHRIST refers to the WORD of GOD as being the MANNA (BREAD) from HEAVEN, and says that if you were to eat of this BREAD, you will never die! This is the FOOD necessary for your SPIRIT to LIVE throughout ETERNITY.

John 6:32 Then JESUS said unto them, VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO YOU, MOSES GAVE YOU NOT THAT BREAD FROM HEAVEN; BUT MY FATHER GIVETH YOU THE TRUE BREAD FROM HEAVEN.

There isn't anything more IMPORTANT than your READING of the HOLY BIBLE. It provides the FOOD necessary for YOUR SPIRIT and YOUR SOUL to LIVE. So why does the Church treat the reading of the BIBLE as a secondary issue rather than the most IMPORTANT ISSUE? GOD refers to the HOLY BIBLE as a BOOK of REMEMBRANCE that is READ by them who LOVE HIM. GOD says that when it is TIME for HIM to make up HIS JEWELS, HE will treat them that READ HIS WORD like HIS ONE and ONLY SON.

Malachi 3:16 Then they that FEARED THE LORD spake often one to another: and THE LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a BOOK of REMEMBRANCE was WRITTEN before HIM for them that FEARED THE LORD, and that thought upon HIS NAME.

Malachi 3:17 And they shall be MINE, saith THE LORD OF HOSTS, in that DAY when I make up MY JEWELS; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his OWN SON that serveth him.

Most of what is taught in Churches is utter nonsense, that which promotes Church's religion and hasn't anything to to do with One's RELATIONSHIP with GOD. Yet every Sunday most people flock to their Churches like SHEEP going to the SLAUGHTER. Believing their appearance at Church identifies them as being loyal servants of GOD. And, the Pastors and the Priests that LEAD them to the SLAUGHTER are also them that SLAY them, Only caring about the SALE of the SHEEP whom they intend to SLAUGHTER!

Zechariah 11:4 Thus saith THE LORD my GOD; FEED THE FLOCK OF THE SLAUGHTER;

Zechariah 11:5 WHOSE POSSESSORS SLAY THEM, AND HOLD THEMSELVES NOT GUILTY: AND THEY THAT SELL THEM SAY, BLESSED BE THE LORD; FOR I AM RICH: AND THEIR OWN SHEPHERDS PITY THEM NOT.

But the Pastors and Priests needn't take these people for PREY to feed upon like a lion, which feeds upon its PREY. For THE LORD, thy GOD will FEED YOU, IF YOU TURN TO THE WORD of GOD for your FOOD and cast your religion and religious leaders, them who want to SLAY YOU aside! For they are the shackles that BIND you to the EARTH and will eventually PULL you into the PIT, where they will RESIDE!

Zechariah 11:6 FOR I WILL NO MORE PITY THE INHABITANTS OF THE LAND, SAITH THE LORD: BUT, LO, I WILL DELIVER THE MEN EVERY ONE INTO HIS NEIGHBOUR'S HAND, AND INTO THE HAND OF HIS KING: AND THEY SHALL SMITE THE LAND, AND OUT OF THEIR HAND I WILL NOT DELIVER THEM.

Zechariah 11:7 AND I WILL FEED THE FLOCK OF SLAUGHTER, EVEN YOU, O POOR OF THE FLOCK. AND I TOOK UNTO ME TWO STAVES; THE ONE I CALLED BEAUTY, AND THE OTHER I CALLED BANDS; AND I FED THE FLOCK.

The TWO STAVES spoken of in the SCRIPTURE are JESUS CHRIST, called BEAUTY, and THE DELIVERER 182, called BANDS. These are the TWO ANOINTED ONES spoken of in Zechariah 4:14. Chapters 11.8-11.17 of Zechariah continue on to describe the PURPOSES of both BEAUTY (the SAVIOR MESSIAH) and BANDS (THE DELIVERER MESSIAH). As a matter of fact, the entire Book of Zechariah is dedicated to explaining about the TWO ANOINTED ONES. The WORD, "CHRIST" is the Greek word (Christo) meaning, "Anointed One", as does the HEBREW WORD, "MESSIAH", mean the same. What Christian Church have YOU attended that teaches there are TWO MESSIAHS? Does the so-called "Christian Church" omit the Book of Zechariah in its teachings intentionally or is it that they just don't UNDERSTAND the WORD of GOD? In either case, they shouldn't be teaching it!

These Churches are the places where people go to entrust their ETERNITY. If the Churches are FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG in teaching the WORD of GOD, where does that leave the PEOPLE whom are TRUSTING in them? Would you pay money to attend a University that taught its students that 2+2=5?

As shown by SCRIPTURE earlier (Revelation 2:18-2:23) in the Introduction of this Book, GOD holds both the Church that is FALSELY TEACHING the WORD of GOD, and them who attend that Church ACCOUNTABLE for their actions! When THE HOLY SPIRIT cast the Pastor or Priest of the Church for FALSELY TEACHING the WORD of GOD, into the LAKE of FIRE, that burns throughout ETERNITY, what makes you think that YOUR JUDGMENT for attending that Church will be any different?

These are SERIOUS matters regarding a PERSON'S ETERNITY and they shouldn't be taken lightly. The Book of Revelation refers to the Churches that FALSELY TEACH the WORD of GOD as the "GREAT WHORE", and GOD PLEADS with HIS PEOPLE to come out of HER, and be not PARTAKERS of HER SINS!

Revelation 18:4 And I heard another VOICE from HEAVEN, saying, COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, THAT YE BE NOT PARTAKERS OF HER SINS, AND THAT YE RECEIVE NOT OF HER PLAGUES.

Revelation 18:5 FOR HER SINS HAVE REACHED UNTO HEAVEN, AND GOD HATH REMEMBERED HER INIQUITIES.

This BOOK is dedicated to REVEALING, "Mystery Babylon, The GREAT WHORE", who SHE is, and what SHE stands for, and, why ALL should BEWARE of HER!

Chapter 1
The Origin of RELIGION

Meaning of Religion

Before WE get into the origin of religion let US first explain the definition of the word, "religion", and its TRUE MEANING, as it relates to the WORD of GOD. The English Dictionary defines the word, "religion", as meaning, service and worship of GOD, or the organized system of faith and worship. Either definition relates to a man-made methodology of worship. Whether it is the worshipping of the ONE TRUE GOD or the worshiping of a false god, it is still a manmade doctrine that dictates how one should worship.

There isn't any specific methodology denoted by SCRIPTURE on how mankind should worship GOD. And, if you were to review the various INDIVIDUALS spoken of in the SCRIPTURES, you would see there aren't any two having the same kind of RELATIONSHIP with THE LORD. Other than them all offering SACRIFICES for their SIN, their RELATIONSHIPS are as varied as the INDIVIDUALS themselves. This indicates that each PERSON worshiped GOD in his or her own INDIVIDUAL way.

This should not be confused with the protocol given to MOSES regarding the Priests garments and the handling of the Tabernacle Articles in the OLD COVENANT. The various tasks given to MOSES to teach the Priests tending to the TABERNACLE, related to the safety of them who were to be handling HOLY ARTICLES, being behind the VEIL, and in the PRESENCE of GOD. However it may be noted that MOSES personally was never told that HE had to follow any specific protocol, except he was to remove his shoes while standing on HOLY GROUND. This was because MOSES had a RELATIONSHIP with GOD, whereas the others, whom were going to be in the PRESENCE of GOD, did not have a RELATIONSHIP with GOD. If those, other than MOSES, were not clearly identified by garment, protocol, and marking, while in the PRESENCE of GOD, the Angels would see these individuals as being a THREAT, and would consume them with FIRE as a PURIFICATION measure.

All GOD expects from them who have or want to have a relationship with HIM, is that they WALK before HIM in a HUMBLE and CONTRITE SPIRIT. Being humble means to not have a high opinion of yourself and therefore being void of PRIDE. Whereas being contrite means to maintain an open and willing mind with a willingness to LEARN.

Micah 6:6 Wherewith shall I come before THE LORD, and bow myself before the HIGH GOD? Shall I come before HIM with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?

Micah 6:7 Will THE LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my SOUL?

Micah 6:8 HE hath shewed thee, O man, what is GOOD; and what doth THE LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to LOVE MERCY, and to walk HUMBLY with thy GOD?

Isaiah 57:15 For thus saith the HIGH and LOFTY ONE that inhabiteth ETERNITY, whose NAME is HOLY; I dwell in the HIGH and HOLY PLACE, with him also that is of a CONTRITE and HUMBLE SPIRIT, to revive the SPIRIT of the HUMBLE, and to revive the HEART of the CONTRITE ONES.

As can be seen from the SCRIPTURES, other than having the PROPER ATTITUDE, there isn't any METHODOLOGY pertaining to how you should worship GOD. Furthermore, you can deduct from the SCRIPTURES that "RELIGIONS" are man's rules, and NOT GOD'S, and you will see as we progress through this chapter, that RELIGION was created by the Devil's offspring!

The Beginning of Religion

As explained in my first BOOK, "Revealing The Bible's Truth", there are three Spiritual Seeds passed down through NOAH. NOAH'S THREE SONS, whom incidentally were TRIPLETS, represent the THREE SPIRITUAL SEEDS on the earth. The Son, SHEM, represents the BLESSED SEED, the Son, HAM, represents the DAMNED SEED (the offspring of Lucifer), and the Son. Jap'-pheth, represents the SEED of the GENTILE (GOD'S SIXTH DAY CREATION), the man without a SOUL.

NOTE: Regarding NOAH'S three sons; SCRIPTURE can CONFIRM them as being TRIPLETS. NOAH had but one wife. SCRIPTURE tells you that there were eight people on the ARK. NOAH, HIS WIFE, NOAH'S three sons, and the sons' three wives. SCRIPTURE also tells you that NOAH was five hundred years old when HE had the THREE SONS, therefore making all three sons the same age, thus they had to be TRIPLETS. Why is it the Church fails to point out this unique occurrence in their teachings?

Genesis 5:32 And NOAH was FIVE HUNDRED years old: and NOAH begat SHEM, Ham, and Ja'-pheth.

Genesis 6:10 And NOAH begat THREE SONS, SHEM, Ham, and Ja'-pheth.

Genesis 7:7 And NOAH went in, and HIS sons, and HIS WIFE, and HIS sons' wives with HIM, into the ARK, because of the waters of the flood.

If you were to track the lineage of NOAH'S son Ham, you would see that Ham had four sons, Cush, Miz'-ra-im, Phut, and Ca-naan, with Cush being the eldest of the four. Cush was born out of incest with Ham's Mother, Me'-a-te'-rah (as explained in Revealing The Bible's Truth), whereas the other three sons came through Ham's wife. Ham being in the spiritual lineage (SEED) of Cain, the offspring of Lucifer, was of Angelic lineage. Therefore, the forbidden act of Ham with his Mother, Me'-a-te'-rah, whom was also ANGELIC, brought about a CURSE that would be passed down through the lineage of Cush. The CURSE of angelic mating would therefore generate an Angelic offspring once within every seven generations, being passed down through Cush, and all his succeeding generations. The first of the Angelic Offspring was named Nimrod, and Nimrod was over nine feet tall.

Genesis 10:8 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.

Genesis 10:9 He was a mighty hunter before THE LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before THE LORD.

Genesis 10:10 And the beginning of his kingdom was BABEL, and E'-rech, and Ac'-cad, and Cal-neh, in the land of SHINAR.

The SCRIPTURES tell you that the beginning of Nimrod's kingdom was by his creation of BABEL, later to be called BABYLON. However it was first called the "City of Nimrod", and it was the largest city of its time, with Nimrod ruling as King over it. The City of Nimrod was unique for its time because its buildings and its walls were made from bricks and not out of stone, as were the other cities, and all of the people at that time spoke ONE LANGUAGE, HEBREWAH.

HEBREWAH is a SPIRITUAL LANGUAGE, and the language that everyone spoke throughout the land, whether they lived within the confines of the City of Nimrod, or elsewhere. Nimrod, being like his fathers before him, was filled with PRIDE, for the Devil is the King over the Children of PRIDE.

Job 41:33 Upon earth there is not his like, who is made without fear.

Job 41:34 He beholdeth all high things: he is a KING over all the CHILDREN of PRIDE.

Nimrod was not content on being just a King, he wanted to be seen by the people as a god. So he decided to build a tower to represent his greatness, a tower that would reach unto HEAVEN, and all the people came before him to worship him, and tell him how wonderful and powerful he was. And, those who worshiped him made him special clothing, and a bonnet he wore like a crown, and his bonnet and his robe was sewn with gold thread and garnished with precious stones, and all the people called him god!

Genesis 11:1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

Genesis 11:2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shi'-nar; and they dwelt there.

Genesis 11:3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.

Genesis 11:4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto HEAVEN; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

With the city nearly completed and while the tower was still yet under construction, Nimrod would have the people gather both at sunrise and at sunset while he stood upon the highest point of the tower to worship him. And GOD heard of what the people were doing, and HE was WROTH with them.

Genesis 11:5 And THE LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.

Genesis 11:6 And THE LORD said, BEHOLD, THE PEOPLE IS ONE, AND THEY HAVE ALL ONE LANGUAGE; AND THIS THEY BEGIN TO DO: AND NOW NOTHING WILL BE RESTRAINED FROM THEM, WHICH THEY HAVE IMAGINED TO DO.

Genesis 11:7 GO TO, LET US GO DOWN, AND THERE CONFOUND THEIR LANGUAGE, THAT THEY MAY NOT UNDERSTAND ONE ANOTHER'S SPEECH.

Genesis 11:8 So THE LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

Within the LAYER of the SCRIPTURE lays the reasoning behind GOD'S taking the people's common language from them. HEBREWAH is a HOLY LANGUAGE, the LANGUAGE that is spoken at THE THRONE of GOD And, the people were abusing and defiling that which is HOLY. So GOD took their tongue from them, and they could no longer communicate both spiritually and verbally, but verbally only. And, only small groups of people then could speak the same DIALECT and they no longer had enough people understanding one another that could continue on with the building of the city and the tower. So the building ceased, however the RELIGION continued on with them who could speak the same language as Nimrod.

The other groups of people, who then spoke in different dialects, went off into different directions, with each group bringing with them their language and the knowledge of religion, they had learned in the City of Nimrod, BABEL. This is why ALL CULTURES have some form of religion in their heritage, all of which originated at BABYLON.

Genesis 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called BABEL; because THE LORD did there CONFOUND the language of all the earth: and from thence did THE LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

It may also be noted that when GOD took away the people's ability to speak SPIRITUALLY, this disabled them from being able to TRULY WORSHIP GOD, for they ABUSED that privilege by worshiping Nimrod. JESUS says that the TRUE WORSHIPERS of GOD, WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT and in TRUTH.

John 4:23 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.

John 4:24 GOD IS A SPIRIT: AND THEY THAT WORSHIP HIM MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.

Chapter Two
Idolatry

The Dictionary defines the word Idolatry as the worshiping of idols. Most people would think that this practice has long been abolished by the modern world, however; the modern world not only continues to practice idolatry, it embraces it. GOD considers any OBJECT whether it be man-made or not, that is worshiped and placed above HIM, or that is used as an article in any form of worship or of monumental significance, to be an IDOL. GOD'S FIRST and SECOND COMMANDMENTS are listed below. Please read them very carefully and try to SEE how these COMMANDMENTS are being routinely broken, both by the modern world, and by the Churches.

GOD'S FIRST COMMANDMENT:

Exodus 20:3 THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER gods BEFORE ME.

GOD'S SECOND COMMANDMENT:

Exodus 20:4 THOU SHALT NOT MAKE UNTO THEE ANY GRAVEN IMAGE, OR ANY LIKENESS OF ANY THING THAT IS IN HEAVEN ABOVE, OR THAT IS IN THE EARTH BENEATH, OR THAT IS IN THE WATER UNDER THE EARTH:

Exodus 20:5 THOU SHALT NOT BOW DOWN THYSELF TO THEM, NOR SERVE THEM: FOR I THE LORD THY GOD AM A JEALOUS GOD, VISITING THE INIQUITY OF THE FATHERS UPON THE CHILDREN UNTO THE THIRD AND FOURTH GENERATION OF THEM THAT HATE ME;

Exodus 20:6 AND SHEWING MERCY UNTO THOUSANDS OF THEM THAT LOVE ME, AND KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS.

The GRAVEN IMAGES referred to in the COMMANDMENTS (Exodus 20: 4) represent man-made objects that are either worshiped or that symbolize the greatness of mankind. These can be structures such as buildings and monuments, figurines such as sculptures of people or things, and even such things as crucifixes, whether or not an image of JESUS CHRIST appears on the cross! Any ARTICLE that is looked upon as being a god or godlike, man-made or not, such as the Sun or the Moon, or the Stars above, or any ARTICLE proclaimed to be HOLY by a person or an organization even if that person or organization claims to represent GOD, is an IDOL! And, if any person sees these articles as being an IMAGE of GREATNESS, or a representation of something HOLY, they are in VIOLATION of GOD'S COMMANDMENTS!

Only GOD IS GREAT, and only GOD CAN MAKE HOLY, AND ANYONE OTHER THAN GOD PROCLAIMING THAT: he or she CAN MAKE HOLY, or that he or she is great, IS A LIAR AND AN IDOLATER. GOD will CURSE them who VIOLATE HIS COMMANDMENTS, and their families, out to the third and fourth generations.

Isaiah 42:8 I AM THE LORD: THAT IS MY NAME: AND MY GLORY WILL I NOT GIVE TO ANOTHER, NEITHER MY PRAISE TO GRAVEN IMAGES.

Let US review some of the COMMON ARTICLES of IDOLATRY seen throughout the world today.

Crucifixes

It is commonplace for a person proclaiming to be a Christian to place a cross around their neck, believing they are honoring JESUS CHRIST by them doing so. GOD FINDS THIS PRACTICE DISGUSTING. JESUS CHRIST was crucified by men, and suffered great humiliation while on the cross. How would YOU like to see a picture of YOUR moment of humiliation being flaunted and carried about by people claiming to love you?

The Churches will tell you that they use the cross to symbolize the greatness of JESUS' SACRIFICE. However, the GREATNESS of JESUS' SACRIFICE was not in HIS crucifixion that was done by men, but rather HIS GREATNESS IN SACRIFICE was in JESUS' RESURRECTION, that of which was done by GOD! Many men were crucified by the Romans, but only JESUS CHRIST was RESURRECTED from the dead, and it was GOD whom RESURRECTED HIM! Why do the Churches and their followers go about to give GOD'S GLORY to men?

THUS SAITH THE LORD THY GOD, WHEN I SEE THESE PRIESTS CARRY ABOUT THEIR DETESTABLE CRUCIFIXES LIKE PRIZES, MY ANGER OVERWHELMS ME! BUT I SHALL WAIT FOR THE DAY THAT SOON COMES, AND THEN BRING MY WRATH UPON THEM THAT HATE ME. THERE SHALL BE WEEPING AND GNASHING OF TEETH!

Statues and Figurines of the Virgin Mary

It is common amongst Religious Orders to proclaim Mary to be the Mother of GOD, but I tell you in TRUTH; GOD hasn't any Mother! GOD says throughout the SCRIPTURES that there wasn't any GOD before HIM, and that HE IS THE FIRST AND THE LAST, AND BESIDE HIM THERE IS NO GOD! So how can GOD have a Mother, if there was no one before HIM?

Isaiah 43:10 YE ARE MY WITNESSES, SAITH THE LORD, AND MY SERVANT WHOM I HAVE CHOSEN: THAT YE MAY KNOW AND BELIEVE ME, AND UNDERSTAND THAT I AM HE: BEFORE ME THERE WAS NO GOD FORMED, NEITHER SHALL THERE BE AFTER ME.

Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith THE LORD the KING of ISRAEL, and HIS REDEEMER THE LORD of HOSTS; I AM THE FIRST, AND I AM THE LAST; AND BESIDE ME THERE IS NO GOD.

So why would anyone want to believe these ridiculous things taught by the Churches? Especially when they routinely try to CONTRADICT SCRIPTURE from the very BOOK they claim to teach from.

Revelation 3:22 HE THAT HATH AN EAR, LET HIM HEAR WHAT THE SPIRIT SAITH UNTO THE CHURCHES.

THUS SAITH THE LORD THY GOD, I SEE THESE PEOPLE CARRY THEIR IDOLS OF MARY FROM HOUSE TO HOUSE LIKE A SHRINE, AND WORSHIP BEFORE THEIR IDOL. BEHOLD, I WILL CAST THEM AND THEIR CHURCH INTO GREAT TRIBULATION, EXCEPT THEY REPENT OF THEIR DEEDS!

Sepulchres, Shrines and Monuments for the Dead

Matthew 23:27 WOE UNTO YOU, SCRIBES AND PHARISEES, HYPOCRITES! FOR YE ARE LIKE UNTO WHITED SEPULCHRES, WHICH INDEED APPEAR BEAUTIFUL OUTWARD, BUT ARE WITHIN FULL OF DEAD MEN'S BONES, AND OF ALL UNCLEANNESS.

Matthew 23:28 EVEN SO YE ALSO OUTWARDLY APPEAR RIGHTEOUS UNTO MEN, BUT WITHIN YE ARE FULL OF HYPOCRISY AND INIQUITY.

Matthew 23:29 WOE UNTO YOU, SCRIBES AND PHARISEES, HYPOCRITES! BECAUSE YE BUILD THE TOMBS OF THE PROPHETS, AND GARNISH THE SEPULCHRES OF THE RIGHTEOUS,

Matthew 23:30 AND SAY, IF WE HAD BEEN IN THE DAYS OF OUR FATHERS, WE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN PARTAKERS WITH THEM IN THE BLOOD OF THE PROPHETS.

Matthew 23:31 WHEREFORE YE BE WITNESSES UNTO YOURSELVES, THAT YE ARE THE CHILDREN OF THEM WHICH KILLED THE PROPHETS.

Matthew 23:32 FILL YE UP THEN THE MEASURE OF YOUR FATHERS.

As you can see from the preceding SCRIPTURES taken from the GOSPEL of Matthew. JESUS states in the SCRIPTURE that it was the Scribes and Pharisees that built the tombs and sepulchres to honor the dead Prophets and Saints (the Righteous). However, it was their forefathers whom had caused their DEMISE. JESUS further points out in the SCRIPTURE that they did not HONOR the PROPHETS and SAINTS while they were alive yet they would honor them in their death!

Luke 9:60 JESUS said unto him, LET THE DEAD BURY THEIR DEAD: BUT GO THOU AND PREACH THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

There isn't anything wrong in providing a proper burial for the dead, which may also include a marker of the grave. However, when any type of shrine or monument is constructed at a gravesite to honor the dead, then that monument or shrine becomes an IDOL of the person whom is dead.

Buildings and Structures

Buildings and Structures are not in themselves IDOLS unless they are considered to be ICONS of such regarding the greatness of an individual, or the greatness of a city, state or nation. Nimrod was the first to use a structure as a symbol of his greatness, however it was the Romans that perfected this trait of IDOLATRY.

Constantine used the Christian Church to promote his greatness by building a temple for himself on seven hills, and naming the city where his structure built after his name (Constantinople). He chose the site of seven hills, because SOLOMON'S TEMPLE that was built in HONOR of GOD sat on seven hills. Even though he proclaimed himself to be a Converted Christian, he wanted to be seen as a god. Whereas JESUS CHRIST told HIS DISCIPLES that the greatest among them should be seen as a servant rather than a Master and Leader, Constantine used the Church as a ploy to exemplify his greatness! And as it was with Constantine, so was it with the Leaders of the Early Christian Churches. This is why they built their great cathedrals throughout Europe and elsewhere, to magnify their greatness and to demonstrate their power, thus making the cathedrals IDOLS unto themselves. The Masons, who built the cathedrals for the Roman Catholic Church Leaders, also formed their own PRIVATE RELIGION, and considered themselves an elite group, because of the skill they had in the building of these large structures.

The Prophet Ezekiel was warned on what the Churches would do to GOD'S PLACE of WORSHIP, long before the Church existed. Ezekiel was taken up in a VISION given from GOD to the TEMPLE, and there shown what was to become of the PLACES of WORSHIP throughout the world in the latter years. The only PLACE of WORSHIP at that time was the TEMPLE in JERUSALEM, so Ezekiel was taken there in a VISION, and he saw that at the entrance to the ALTAR of the TEMPLE there sat an IMAGE of JEALOUSY. This image represents SATAN'S control of the Church. This is why JESUS in the Book of Revelation refers to the Church as being Satan's SEAT or the Synagogue of Satan.

Revelation 2:12 AND TO THE ANGEL OF THE CHURCH IN PER'-GA-MOS WRITE; THESE THINGS SAITH HE WHICH HATH THE SHARP SWORD WITH TWO EDGES;

Revelation 2:13 I KNOW THY WORKS, AND WHERE THOU DWELLEST, EVEN WHERE SATAN'S SEAT IS: AND THOU HOLDEST FAST MY NAME, AND HAST NOT DENIED MY FAITH, EVEN IN THOSE DAYS WHEREIN AN'-TI-PAS WAS MY FAITHFUL MARTYR, WHO WAS SLAIN AMONG YOU, WHERE SATAN DWELLETH.

Revelation 3:9 BEHOLD, I WILL MAKE THEM OF THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN, WHICH SAY THEY ARE JEWS, AND ARE NOT, BUT DO LIE; BEHOLD, I WILL MAKE THEM TO COME AND WORSHIP BEFORE THY FEET, AND TO KNOW THAT I HAVE LOVED THEE.

Ezekiel 8:5 Then said HE unto me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes now the way toward the North. So I lifted up mine eyes the way toward the north, and behold northward at the gate of the ALTAR this IMAGE of JEALOUSY in the entry.

Shortly after being shown the IMAGE of JEALOUSY, Ezekiel is taken by GOD to the Courtyard, and he is told by THE LORD to dig through the wall, and after digging for a while, he finds a door in the wall leading to the SANCTUARY. THE LORD then tells Ezekiel to go in through the door and see the ABOMINATIONS that are taking place within the SANCTUARY. When Ezekiel enters into the Sanctuary he sees IMAGES of all sorts on the walls.

NOTE: THE LORD has told me that the place that Ezekiel was shown; was symbolic of the interior of a Catholic Church; and the IMAGES on the walls were the stained glass windows and the wall painted murals commonly found in Catholic Cathedrals. THE LORD also told me that any IMAGES whatsoever (paintings, stained glass, statues etc.) that are put in a place proclaimed to be GOD'S place of WORSHIP, is a BLASPHEMY of THE HOLY SPIRIT of GOD. This is an UNFORGIVABLE SIN committed by the Church who perpetrated this act of BLASPHEMY.

Ezekiel 8:8 Then said HE unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.

Ezekiel 8:9 And HE said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked ABOMINATIONS that they do here.

Ezekiel 8:10 So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the IDOLS of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about.

Self-Created IDOLS

IDOLS can also be created by INDIVIDUALS and can be from things that are only IDOLS unto them. These things can be hobbies such as sports or computer games, or houses, cars, Movie Stars or Entertainers, Women or Men whom are admired by them, Political or Government Positions of Authority, or anything that a person may admire to a point of IDOLATRY. These things become OBSESSIONS to those INDIVIDUALS who create them, and they LUST after them. This can be compared to a married couple, where one or both partners allow their OBSESSIONS to detract from their marriage and prefer their OBSESSION to their SPOUSE.

GOD considers your RELATIONSHIP with HIM to be a MARRIAGE, and if you allow ANYTHING to come before HIM, HE WILL CAST YOU OFF!

Isaiah 54:5 For thy MAKER is thine HUSBAND; THE LORD of HOSTS is HIS NAME; and thy REDEEMER the HOLY ONE of ISRAEL; the GOD of the WHOLE EARTH shall HE be called.

Chapter Three
SACRIFICE and REPENTANCE

OLD COVENANT SACRIFICE

In the OLD COVENANT there wasn't any promise of FORGIVENESS. The way that a person could be forgiven of SIN was by their OFFERING a sacrifice of sorts for their WRONGDOING or SIN. This was considered to be the payment against the sin they had committed. SINS against THE LORD required varying types of sacrifices to be OFFERED UP to GOD, depending on the specific SIN COMMITTED. At that TIME, there needn't be REPENTANCE on behalf of the INDIVIDUAL offering the sacrifice; for by their offering a sacrifice of something of importance to them, that alone showed that person's admission of GUILT for the crime committed.

This offering of a sacrifice as a payment also applied to a sinful act against a family member, a neighbor, an acquaintance, or even a stranger, whom had been wrongfully treated by the accused perpetrator. The willingness of that person to offer the sacrifice was an admission of guilt for the crime committed. Therefore there wasn't any need for REPENTANCE, for an ADMISSION of GUILT was made in the offering.

If a person was accused of committing a SIN against GOD or another, and they DENIED perpetrating the act or committing the SIN, they simply would not willingly offer a sacrifice for the accused act. In the case where the SIN had been perpetrated against GOD, then GOD would see to that person's INNOCENCE or GUILT. However, the PRICE they would pay for the SIN if they were indeed GUILTY of it, would be much GREATER than that which was originally required for sacrifice.

In the case where the accused act was against another INDIVIDUAL, and the accused denied his or her guilt of committing the crime by their refusing to offer a sacrifice for payment of the act, then a Court of ELDERS would convene to determine the innocence or guilt of the accused. This scenario could turn out to be somewhat more of a riskier proposition for the accused if they were found to be guilty because those being found guilty in some cases were made to pay more than the original required sacrifice and sometimes they were even put to death for the crime. Many times the accused would offer the sacrifice required even if they had thought they were innocent, rather than chance the penalty that could be levied by the Court of Elders, if they were found guilty.

In either case, whether the SIN was against GOD or another INDIVIDUAL, the offering of the sacrifice was an admission of GUILT by the ACCUSED. Therefore REPENTANCE was not a requirement of the OLD COVENANT and SACRIFICE substituted for REPENTANCE.

NEW COVENANT SACRIFICE

GOD BROKE the OLD COVENANT pertaining only to the Jews at the time of JESUS' CRUCIFIXION. HE then made a NEW COVENANT applying to ALL MANKIND. GOD did not change HIS LAWS or COMMANDMENTS in the NEW COVENANT. The LAWS pertaining to SACRIFICE still apply in the NEW COVENANT as in the OLD COVENANT, with the only change made being what was to be SACRIFICED.

A BLOOD SACRIFICE was required for SIN in the OLD COVENANT, so is a BLOOD SACRIFICE required for the FORGIVENESS of SIN in the NEW COVENANT! In the NEW COVENANT the BLOOD SACRIFICE REQUIRED is the BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST, referred to by SCRIPTURE as the BLOOD of the LAMB. SCRIPTURE refers to JESUS as being the LAMB of GOD. It is by the SACRIFICE of the LAMB of GOD that ALL SINS can be FORGIVEN. This SACRIFICE applies to everyone and eliminates the NEED for INDIVIDUAL SACRIFICES.

John 1:29 The next day John seeth JESUS coming unto him, and saith, BEHOLD the LAMB of GOD, which taketh away the SIN of the WORLD.

The SACRIFICE of the LAMB of GOD is an ETERNAL SACRIFICE, whereas the INDIVIDUAL SACRIFICE of the OLD COVENANT only applied for the one time offering. JESUS CHRIST is ETERNAL, therefore making HIS SACRIFICE ETERNAL and it's by HIS SACRIFICE that the PROMISE of FORGIVENESS is GIVEN. The INDIVIDUAL SACRIFICE may or may not have been found ACCEPTABLE by GOD at the time of its offering. If GOD did not ACCEPT the SACRIFICE then that person's SIN still remained with them, even though they had offered the sacrifice.

GOD by GRACE provides the SACRIFICE of the LAMB of GOD in the NEW COVENANT. Therefore the PAYMENT made for SIN in the NEW COVENANT is made by GOD, and not by the INDIVIDUAL, as it was in the OLD COVENANT.

REPENTANCE of Sin

By GOD'S GRACE providing the SACRIFICE for SIN, and also PAYING the PRICE of REDEMPTION for the SIN, the INDIVIDUAL no longer has an ADMISSION of GUILT for SIN by SACRIFICE. This is because the INDIVIDUAL now provides nothing on their behalf regarding the SIN, so no admission of guilt is made in the OFFERING. Furthermore, each and every INDIVIDUAL must FIRST make REPENTANCE for the SIN COMMITTED prior to them RECEIVING the LAMB of GOD for their SACRIFICE! REPENTANCE of SIN is NOW MADE in LIEU of SACRIFICE!

What Does the Church Teach Regarding REPENTANCE of SIN?

Although I find the Churches in disagreement over most matters, I have yet to find a single Church that disagrees on the subject of FORGIVENESS. They all seem to teach that any INDIVIDUAL asking for forgiveness must be forgiven. The Churches routinely quote JESUS as saying, that because GOD forgives you for your SINS, so must you forgive others of their SINS. This is the TRUTH, however only in partiality! The Churches seem to NEGLECT to teach the condition of REPENTANCE in lieu of SACRIFICE as WE have previously discussed. Let US review the SCRIPTURES relating to this matter to FIND the UNDERLYING TRUTH.

Matthew 18:21 Then came Peter to HIM, and said, LORD, how oft shall my brother SIN against me, and I forgive him? Till seven times?

Matthew 18:22 JESUS saith unto him, I SAY NOT UNTO THEE, UNTIL SEVEN TIMES: BUT, UNTIL SEVENTY TIMES SEVEN.

In the SCRIPTURE Peter asks JESUS how often should he forgive a person that has SINNED against him, and should there be a limit on how many times that person can be forgiven. JESUS then replies to Peter saying that there shouldn't be any limit for the times of forgiveness, by stating, if need be, SEVENTY TIMES SEVEN (490 times) per day! This SCRIPTURE does not negate the REQUIREMENT of REPENTANCE by the person seeking FORGIVENESS, it just omits the CONDITION of FORGIVENESS and merely states that there should not be a limit applied to the FORGIVENESS.

Whereas the Disciple Matthew neglected to state the condition of REPENTANCE for FORGIVENESS in his GOSPEL, the Disciple Luke made sure it was included in his GOSPEL.

Luke 17:3 TAKE HEED TO YOURSELVES: IF THY BROTHER TRESPASS AGAINST THEE, REBUKE HIM; AND IF HE REPENT, FORGIVE HIM.

Luke 17:4 AND IF HE TRESPASS AGAINST THEE SEVEN TIMES IN A DAY, AND SEVEN TIMES IN A DAY TURN AGAIN TO THEE, SAYING, I REPENT; THOU SHALT FORGIVE HIM.

The WORD of GOD is CLEAR on the matter of FORGIVENESS both in the OLD and NEW COVENANTS. GOD will NOT FORGIVE YOU if you do not REPENT. NEITHER does GOD expect you to forgive another if they don't REPENT. So why does the Church teach otherwise?

THE LORD has explained to ME as to why the Church neglects teaching that INDIVIDUALS must repent to be forgiven by other INDIVIDUALS. GOD has told ME that the Church PURPOSELY teaches this DOCTRINE; because the vast majority of the Church Leadership is made up of Canaanites, and the Canaanite's PRIDE will not allow them to REPENT. This DOCTRINE also implies that anyone sinning against GOD need not REPENT, for GOD will arbitrarily forgive him or her because they don't require repentance from them who sin against them.

Luke 13:2 And JESUS answering said unto them, SUPPOSE YE THAT THESE GAL-I-LAE-ANS WERE SINNERS ABOVE ALL THE GAL-I-LAE-ANS, BECAUSE THEY SUFFERED SUCH THINGS?

Luke 13:3 I TELL YOU, NAY: BUT, EXCEPT YE REPENT, YE SHALL ALL LIKEWISE PERISH.

THUS SAITH THE LORD THY GOD, IN THIS WORLD THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS WITHOUT REPENTANCE!

Chapter Four
PRAISE and WORSHIP

The Dictionary defines the word "PRAISE" as an expression of APPROVAL and GLORIFICATION. The word "WORSHIP" is defined as being, a REVERENCE toward a DIVINE BEING or SUPERNATURAL POWER. As you can see from its definition, ONE can only WORSHIP GOD, for HE ALONE is DIVINE and ALMIGHTY. WE can PRAISE and WORSHIP GOD in SPIRIT and in Flesh, in NUMBERS (Groups), or as INDIVIDUALS. However, when WORSHIPING in SPIRIT, INDIVIDUALITY is still maintained, even while being in the presence of others; whereas WORSHIPPING GOD in Flesh, while being in attendance of others, constitutes the need for all present to be in ONE HARMONIOUS STATE of MIND.

In this Chapter WE will discuss the various forms of WORSHIP in both a Physical form and in SPIRIT. TRUE WORSHIP can be attained only in SPIRIT, because while in SPIRIT, ONE can be LINKED with GOD emotionally, whereas in FLESH (a physical STATE) linkage to GOD is limited to an EXPRESSION by WORD or SONG. This can be done as either an INDIVIDUAL or as a HARMONIOUS GROUP. When in the COMPANY of other people, all in attendance must be in ONE UNIFIED HARMONIOUS MINDSET to properly Worship GOD. GOD is a SPIRIT, so TRUE WORSHIP of GOD can only be attained while in SPIRIT and in TRUTH. There are limitations in WORSHIP while in a PHYSICAL STATE, therefore ONE can only Worship GOD in a very limited manner in a non-spiritual PHYSICAL STATE.

John 4:23 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.

John 4:24 GOD IS A SPIRIT: AND THEY THAT WORSHIP HIM MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH.

Worshiping while in a Physical State

The preceding SCRIPTURES tell you that the TRUE WORSHIPERS of GOD WORSHIP IN SPIRIT and in TRUTH. What does this mean? As explained in MY BOOK "The ROD of IRON", through HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM a PERSON becomes REBORN in a SPIRITUAL FORM, and the SPIRIT received by IMMACULATE BIRTH is the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD. This means that the PERSON RECEIVING the BAPTISM is now BORN out of SPIRIT rather than out of flesh, and that PERSON takes on a NEW IDENTITY, an IDENTITY IN GOD. The SPIRITUAL PERSON (THE REBORN) then takes control over the Physical Being's behavior and governs that which the Physical Person does. Whereas the Mind controlled the Physical Person's actions prior to BAPTISM, the SPIRITUAL PERSON takes control after BAPTISM and governs the actions of the Physical Being, RELATING ALL THAT IS DONE by the Physical Person to the WORD of GOD. Whether it is RIGHTEOUS or UNRIGHTEOUS, the SOUL of the INDIVIDUAL whom has RECEIVED BAPTISM acts as a GUIDE for the SPIRITUAL/Physical PERSON, JUDGING all that that PERSON does and MEASURING it against the WORD of GOD.

Even though GOD'S LAWS prevail, the NEW BORN SPIRITUAL PERSON relies on FAITH rather than LAW for its GUIDANCE. THE HOLY SPIRIT of GOD is referred to by SCRIPTURE as being THE SPIRIT of TRUTH, therefore that PERSON being REBORN in THE SPIRIT of GOD LIVES after BAPTISM, in both SPIRIT and in TRUTH. Whereas the Physical person lives by LAW alone, the REBORN SPIRITUAL PERSON lives by FAITH that is GUIDED by TRUTH.

John 16:13 HOWBEIT WHEN HE, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, IS COME, HE WILL GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH: FOR HE SHALL NOT SPEAK OF HIMSELF; BUT WHATSOEVER HE SHALL HEAR, THAT SHALL HE SPEAK: AND HE WILL SHEW YOU THINGS TO COME.

After being BAPTIZED and governed by SPIRIT rather than by MIND, the SPIRITUAL/Physical PERSON still resides in a Physical STATE and WORSHIPPING GOD in a Physical STATE is rather LIMITED. However, as the SPIRIT ASCENDS (MATURES) within the REBORN PERSON their method of WORSHIP will continually improve and begin to more closely relate to SPIRITUAL rather than Physical WORSHIP. The FURTHER the SPIRIT ASCENDS within the SPIRITUAL/Physical PERSON, the closer that INDIVIDUAL gets to GOD; thus enabling HIM or HER to attain a more PERFECT form of WORSHIP.

While in the SPIRITUAL/ Physical STATE, the NEWBORN SPIRITUAL PERSON still maintains a MINDSET. This means that the Physical Mind still plays a role in the Physical Person's activities by thought of the MIND, and that includes the PERSON'S WORSHIP of GOD. It is because of this MINDSET, that it is PARAMOUNT the PERSON'S MIND be FOCUSED on THE LORD, thus CHANNELING all THOUGHTS only on GOD. JESUS CHRIST refers to this FOCUSING of the MIND as being in a SINGLE-EYED STATE of MIND!

Luke 11:34 THE LIGHT OF THE BODY IS THE EYE: THEREFORE WHEN THINE EYE IS SINGLE, THY WHOLE BODY ALSO IS FULL OF LIGHT; BUT WHEN THINE EYE IS EVIL, THY BODY ALSO IS FULL OF DARKNESS.

During WORSHIP in a Physical STATE, thoughts of the MIND can be DISTRACTING. However, through MEDITATED PRAYER, one can learn to OVERCOME interruptions caused by the thought process. MEDITATED PRAYER is PRAYER by THOUGHT, and this type of PRAYER preoccupies and overwhelms the MIND with thoughts on GOD. The MIND processes thought by analysis, and the thoughts of the MIND can be either GOOD or EVIL. However, even GOOD thoughts detract from WORSHIP in a Physical STATE. The analysis cycle of the MIND while creating thoughts and analyzing them require concentration, and concentration on something other than GOD detract from FOCUS. If the SPIRITUAL/Physical PERSON can remain FOCUSED (SINGLE-EYED) on GOD, then DISTRACTION of the MIND will be minimized.

WORSHIPING GOD in SPIRIT

WORSHIPING in SPIRIT while in a Physical STATE is difficult, but not impossible! It is significantly easier for a PERSON whom has RECEIVED the GIFT of TONGUES to WORSHIP in SPIRIT, because it is THE HOLY SPIRIT of GOD whom SPEAKS through the INDIVIDUAL having the GIFT. SPEAKING in TONGUES (HEBREWAH) is done without any CONSCIOUS THOUGHT whatsoever, and it is the SPIRIT that has COMPLETE CONTROL over the INDIVIDUAL during this EVENT. However this GIFT is seldom GIVEN, so WE will discuss ALTERNATE methods of SPIRITUAL WORSHIP for those not having the GIFT.

SPIRITUAL WORSHIP can only be achieved while being in a SPIRITUAL STATE. This is referred to by SCRIPTURE as being in the GAP, a place void of ALL DISTRACTION! The GAP is the FIFTH DIMENSION just above the EARTH PLANE. There are FOUR DIMENSIONS in the EARTH PLANE, LENGTH, WIDTH, HEIGHT, and TIME. These are called PHYSICAL DIMENSIONS and are FOUR of the THIRTEEN UNIVERSAL DIMENSIONS that make up the UNIVERSE. A detailed explanation of the EARTH PLANE, the GAP and the other DIMENSIONS are given in MY BOOK, "The ROD of IRON". So if you have any difficulty in UNDERSTANDING what is being said on this subject, you should READ "The ROD of IRON".

A REBORN PERSON of GOD can ASCEND during PRAYER, and if the PRAYER ASCENSION is significant, then the LEVEL of the GAP DIMENSION can be ACHIEVED. The GAP is the FIRST VERTICAL DIMENSION in the UNIVERSE. YOU must ASK THE LORD during YOUR PRAYER to ASSIST YOU in ASCENDING to the GAP, for YOU CANNOT ASCEND WITHOUT GOD'S HELP! While in the GAP, YOU will feel as though YOU are separated from the EARTH, even though YOU KNOW that YOU are Physically still on the EARTH. It will appear to YOU as though YOU are LOOKING through a thin transparent membrane at the things surrounding YOUR Physical Being, and YOU will be in a fog like environment, While in the GAP, YOU will experience ABSOLUTE SILENCE, being VOID of ALL MINDFUL THOUGHTS, without any outside distractions whatsoever, and YOU will be in a TOTAL PEACEFUL STATE.

Being void of all thoughts, YOUR SPIRIT will FEEL COMPLETELY FREE, and will GUIDE YOU through to YOUR CONNECTION with GOD! As YOU CONNECT to GOD, you will experience a FORM of EUPHORIA that is ECSTATIC, and similar to that experienced in RAPTURE, but at a significantly lesser degree. GOD'S PRESENCE will OVERWHELM YOU, however YOU will not feel threatened in any way. THE LORD will speak first to YOU, rather than YOU to HIM, so YOU need not address HIM. Once HE SPEAKS to YOU, YOU will more than likely be overcome with EMOTION and WEEP. YOUR TEARS will be uncontrollable, for it will be the MOST JOYOUS occasion of YOUR LIFE! There isn't any set of RULES to adhere to, or an AGENDA to follow during YOUR SESSION with THE LORD. HE will simply SPEAK to YOU, and YOU will RESPOND to HIM in an OPEN FORUM. What transpires in YOUR COMMUNICATION with THE LORD will be UNIQUE, INTIMATE, and ENLIGHTENING. This will be an EXPERIENCE that YOU will NEVER FORGET! The EMOTION experienced while WORSHIPPING GOD in the SPIRIT is INDESCRIBABLE, and most DESIRABLE. This is the CLOSEST that any PERSON can get to GOD while being in a PHYSICAL BODY.

GOD allows some to get CLOSER to HIM than others while in the GAP, so there is a variation in ENLIGHTENMENT between various INDIVIDUALS. GOD SPEAKS more OPENLY to them whom HE feels CLOSEST to. However, GOD'S PRESENCE will OVERWHELM ALL whom experience this phenomenon.

Ezekiel 22:30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the GAP before ME for the land, that I should not DESTROY it: BUT I FOUND NONE.

NOTE: The WORSHIP of GOD is not an obligation but rather a GREAT HONOR, and there are varying degrees of WORSHIP. The most PERFECT FORM of WORSHIP can only be achieved while being in a BODY of LIGHT. Both GOD'S CHILDREN, and GOD'S PEOPLE (ISRAEL), are COMPOSED of LIGHT, and it is only in this FORM that an INDIVIDUAL can ACHIEVE and EXPERIENCE TRUE WORSHIP! The GENTILE can only worship GOD out of FEAR because there isn't any spiritual connection between the GENTILE and GOD. Therefore, their worship is by FEAR and not by LOVE, and by MANDATE not by HONOR! The CANAANITE can NEVER worship GOD because his PRIDE negates his FEAR, and his HATRED replaces LOVE!

Zechariah 14:21 Yea, every pot in JERUSALEM and in Judah shall be HOLINESS unto the LORD of HOSTS: and all they that SACRIFICE shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that DAY there shall be no more the Ca'-naan-ite in the HOUSE of the LORD of HOSTS.

Chapter Five
PRAYER

How many times have you gone into a Church and the Pastor or Priest has said? "Let us all stand and pray". How often do you and your family and friends sit down at the dinner table and give thanks to GOD for the food, and do this in the form of a Group Prayer? Does your Church establish within it, what is called, "Prayer Groups", whereas groups of people are designated to gather together and pray for certain matters? How often do YOU pray in public? JESUS CHRIST FORBIDS any type of prayer that is made public, or in groups and any form of prayer that is not PRIVATE!

The GOSPELS are very CLEAR on this subject:

Matthew 6:5 AND WHEN THOU PRAYEST, THOU SHALT NOT BE AS THE HYPOCRITES ARE: FOR THEY LOVE TO PRAY STANDING IN THE SYNAGOGUES AND IN THE CORNERS OF THE STREETS, THAT THEY MAY BE SEEN OF MEN. VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, THEY HAVE THEIR REWARD.

Matthew 6:6 BUT THOU, WHEN THOU PRAYEST, ENTER INTO THY CLOSET, AND WHEN THOU HAST SHUT THY DOOR, PRAY TO THY FATHER WHICH IS IN SECRET; AND THY FATHER WHICH SEETH IN SECRET SHALL REWARD THEE OPENLY.

Throughout the GOSPELS when reference is made to JESUS' PRAYING, the GOSPELS say that JESUS went off by HIMSELF to PRAY. NEVER does it state that JESUS led HIS DISCIPLES or anyone else in PRAYER. As a matter of fact, JESUS makes note that Nathanael was an ISRAELITE without GUILE, because Nathanael PRAYED in a PRIVATE PLACE, under a fig tree, and not in public or in groups as did the other Jews. The word "GUILE", means; the act or practice of imposing upon the credulity of others by dishonesty, fraud, or trickery! The Pharisees and those of the Synagogue liked to pray in public places, in the streets and while standing in the Synagogues where others could see and hear them pray. This was done to impress them who were watching and hearing their prayers. The Pharisees message to them who viewed them was, See how good we are, and hear how great our prayers is to GOD.

John 1:47 JESUS saw Na-than'-a-el coming to HIM, and saith of him, BEHOLD AN ISRAELITE INDEED, IN WHOM IS NO GUILE!

John 1:48 Na-than'-a-el saith unto HIM, Whence knowest thou me? JESUS answered and said unto him, BEFORE THAT PHILIP CALLED THEE, WHEN THOU WAST UNDER THE FIG TREE, I SAW THEE.

John 1:49 Na-than'-a-el answered and saith unto HIM, Rabbi, thou art the SON of GOD; thou art the KING of ISRAEL.

Have you ever been told by a Pastor or Priest to make a "REPETITIOUS PRAYER", such as ten "Hail Mary's" or ten "Our Father's"? Let US show you what JESUS CHRIST says about this type of prayer.

Matthew 6:7 BUT WHEN YE PRAY, USE NOT VAIN REPETITIONS, AS THE HEATHEN DO: FOR THEY THINK THAT THEY SHALL BE HEARD FOR THEIR MUCH SPEAKING.

Matthew 6:8 BE NOT YE THEREFORE LIKE UNTO THEM: FOR YOUR FATHER KNOWETH WHAT THINGS YE HAVE NEED OF, BEFORE YE ASK HIM.

NOTE: PRAYER should be made only to GOD. Any prayer that is made to another, such as Mary, or a Saint, or to the Pope, or to anyone other than GOD, is a BLASPHEMY to GOD. DON'T DO IT! Nor should you make a REPETITIOUS PRAYER, where the same thing is being said over and over again. GOD is not an idiot! HE knows what you are going to say before you even say it! There isn't any need to repeat your self.

Vocal PRAYER or Common PRAYER

Vocal PRAYER is the most common form of PRAYER, however; it is the least effective, and not effective at all when it is spoken in the presence of others. This type of PRAYER must be done in a PLACE of PRIVACY and not where the one praying can be either seen or heard by others. Due to this type of prayer being spoken in the common language (not in HEBREWAH, the DIVINE LANGUAGE), the Devil can hear the prayer and either block or hinder it from being answered. Many times prayers that are made within groups and not in PRIVACY may appear to be answered. However, the prayer was not answered on behalf of the one or more persons whom had prayed it, but rather it came to pass as a result of it being in GOD'S PERMISSIVE WILL! The Devil will not try to block a group prayer that has come to pass. This is because he wants them who has prayed the prayer to believe that the prayer has been answered.

When GOD allows certain things to happen, whether they are GOOD or EVIL, these happenings fall within GOD'S PERMISSIVE WILL. When anyone PRAYS with thought of PRAYER, rather than in the SPIRIT of PRAYER, if that prayer falls within GOD'S PERMISSIVE WILL, it will more than likely come to pass! This is not THE LORD'S answering of the PRAYER, but rather HIS allowing it to happen. Prayers in the Common Language refer to any language that is spoken by the people of the earth. It can be spoken in Italian, Spanish, French, German, English, and so forth throughout all the languages of the world, and regardless of what language is used, it is still considered a Common Prayer.

A person whom is not BAPTIZED in the SPIRIT of GOD can only make Common Prayer, because they pray in their own faith and not in the FAITH of GOD, given by THE HOLY SPIRIT to them that are BAPTIZED. This is because the UN-BAPTIZED do not have a SPIRITUAL LINKAGE to GOD, thus making their prayers by thought alone, and not by SPIRIT. During the "SEVEN YEAR TRIBULATION", prayers to GOD will no longer be heard from ALL other than them whom are BAPTIZED and left behind to PREACH the WORD of GOD. Then once the "GREAT TRIBULATION" begins, and the RAPTURE of the TRIBULATION SAINTS takes place, there will be no prayers heard by GOD whatsoever! This is the Ceasing of Sacrifice and Oblation spoken of by Daniel the Prophet, meaning, GOD will no longer hear prayers made by the UN-BAPTIZED.

Daniel 9:27 And HE shall CONFIRM the COVENANT with many for one week: and in the midst of the week HE shall cause the SACRIFICE and the OBLATION to CEASE, and for the overspreading of ABOMINATIONS HE SHALL MAKE IT DESOLATE, even until the CONSUMMATION, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

NOTE: The one-week spoken of in the SCRIPTURE refers to a week of years, SEVEN YEARS. The midst of the week refers to the last three and onehalf years of the SEVEN-YEAR TRIBULATION, that which is called, the "GREAT TRIBULATION".

MEDITATIVE PRAYER

MEDITATIVE PRAYER is a prayer that is started by thought that can ASCEND in SPIRIT, to become a SPIRITUAL PRAYER. Whereas Common Prayer and the onset of MEDITATIVE PRAYER are in GOD'S PERMISSIVE WILL, SPIRITUAL PRAYER of any sort falls within GOD'S DIVINE WILL. GOD will ANSWER any and all PRAYERS that are made in HIS DIVINE WILL.

There aren't any WORDS spoken whatsoever in MEDITATIVE PRAYER, only thoughts are CHANNELED to GOD by the MIND. Once the person in meditation achieves the PERFECT MINDSET, the GOD given SPIRIT of that PERSON will ASCEND to the GAP DIMENSION, thus leaving the Physical Person and the MIND of that person in the "EARTH PLANE". Once in the GAP, the PRAYER will be free from thought and in SPIRIT only.

MEDITATIVE PRAYER can only be done where there isn't any outside distractions and in a place where there is extreme PRIVACY. Sometimes even under perfect conditions the "PERFECT MINDSET" cannot be achieved, and many attempts may be made without success. MEDITATIVE PRAYER must be practiced routinely to ultimately achieve a positive end result. Only GOD'S CHILDREN and the MOST ANOINTED can ASCEND to the GAP and there must be a determination on the part of the ONE PRAYING to SUCCEED in this effort.

PRAYER Content

JESUS CHRIST gave HIS DISCIPLES the basis and an example for PRAYER in "THE LORD'S PRAYER".

Matthew 6:9 AFTER THIS MANNER THEREFORE PRAY YE: OUR FATHER WHICH ART IN HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME.

Matthew 6:10 THY KINGDOM COME. THY WILL BE DONE IN EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN.

Matthew 6:11 GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD.

Matthew 6:12 AND FORGIVE US OUR DEBTS, AS WE FORGIVE OUR DEBTORS.

Matthew 6:13 AND LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL: FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM, AND THE POWER, AND THE GLORY, FOR EVER. A-MEN.

This PRAYER SAYS all that needs to be said when ADDRESSING GOD in PRAYER. The PRAYER recognizes that GOD is OUR FATHER and that HE is HOLY and resides in HEAVEN. The PRAYER states that GOD'S KINGDOM is coming to the Earth and that whether it is in HEAVEN or on the Earth, GOD'S WILL prevails. The PRAYER asks GOD to FEED us daily, and this applies to both OUR physical food coming out of the Earth, and to OUR SPIRITUAL FOOD (the WORD of GOD) that has come down to US from HEAVEN. In the PRAYER WE ask for FORGIVENESS, and it states that WE will forgive others as GOD FORGIVES US. If WE REPENT to GOD then GOD will FORGIVE US of our SINS. Therefore WE must also forgive them that ask US to forgive and repent of their sinning against US. The PRAYER asks GOD to GUIDE US and to keep us out of trouble, and to prevent US from committing evil acts. The PRAYER finally acknowledges that ALL POWER and ALL GLORY belong to GOD, and that GOD'S KINGDOM is the only KINGDOM, and that HE and THEM within HIS KINGDOM are ETERNAL.

This PRAYER says it all; however, GOD does not want to hear you recite the PRAYER over and over again; nor does HE want YOU to use this PRAYER for anything other than for the FRAMEWORK of YOUR OWN PRAYERS. GOD wants to HEAR what YOU have to say to HIM in YOUR own words. SPEAK to GOD as YOU would speak to your own Father, for GOD IS YOUR FATHER! Treat HIM as such!

NOTE: PRAYER to GOD is COMMUNICATION and CONVERSATION, and, YOU should maintain a constant dialogue with HIM. If YOU are BAPTIZED, GOD is with YOU every moment of every day. HE is with you where YOU are, during both YOUR goings and YOUR comings, so you needn't go anywhere to FIND HIM.

Chapter Six
RAPTURE, Is it REAL?

There are many people who refuse to believe in RAPTURE because the word, "rapture", does not appear in the HOLY BIBLE. This is FOOLISHNESS! Although the word, "rapture" itself, indeed does not appear within the HOLY BIBLE, the PHENOMENA of RAPTURE appears many times throughout the SCRIPTURES.

For lack of having another word to describe the PHENOMENA of GOD moving people about in a SUPERNATURAL way, a young Scottish Lady in the early eighteen hundreds gave the PHENOMENA a name, she called it "Rapture". The word, "RAPTURE" means, ecstasy, and the young lady used the word "RAPTURE" to describe the ecstatic feeling she had experienced while being touched by an Angel of GOD.

The one thing I KNOW for certain is that RAPTURE will not occur to anyone who does not BELIEVE in it. THE LORD has told ME on several occasions that the people not believing in RAPTURE need not worry about it, for they will certainly never experience it. This is not a good thing for them; for it is by RAPTURE that them who are taken off the EARTH are put into a "PLACE of PROTECTION", to keep them from the "HOUR of TEMPTATION", also called the "Mark of the Beast". It is also by RAPTURE that GOD'S CHILDREN, and GOD'S PEOPLE, ISRAEL are brought into "NEW JERUSALEM in THE NEW MILLENNIUM. It is also by RAPTURE that them in the NEW MILLENNIUM are taken up to HEAVEN.

As explained in my other three books, what WE refer to, as RAPTURE, is the methodology (PHENOMENA) used by GOD to move people about. In some cases the people being moved only move in Spirit, and in some cases the people being moved are moved both in BODY and in SPIRIT. In some cases the people being moved are moved horizontally into a PARALLEL DIMENSION, and in some cases they are moved into a VERTICAL DIMENSION (they ASCEND). In some cases the people being moved are TRANSFIGURED into another Physical Form, and in some cases they are TRANSFIGURED into a SPIRITUAL "BODY of LIGHT"! However, in no case SAITH THE LORD, will a NON-BELIEVER experience this phenomenon!

SCRIPTURES describing the PHENOMENA of RAPTURE

Early on in the HOLY BIBLE, the SCRIPTURES refer to Enoch, the son of Jared, being taken up by GOD rather than him dying. Whereas the others mentioned in the LINEAGE of SETH die at some age, Enoch, by the SCRIPTURE never dies; but rather it says that GOD took him. There were people around Enoch when he simply disappeared before their eyes, this is why the SCRIPTURES say, "and he was not". There are many stories told about Enoch that are not included in the HOLY BIBLE, all of which describe the CLOSE RELATIONSHIP that Enoch had with THE LORD. These stories tell of how Enoch was taken by GOD up to HEAVEN on several occasions, and INTRODUCED by GOD to ALL of the ANGELS. These stories are TRUE!

Genesis 5:19 And Ja'-red lived after he begat E'-noch eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:

Genesis 5:20 And all the days of Ja'-red were nine hundred sixty and two years: and he died.

Genesis 5:21 And E'-noch lived sixty and five years, and begat Me-thu'-se-lah:

Genesis 5:22 And E'-noch WALKED WITH GOD after he begat Me-thu'-se-lah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:

Genesis 5:23 And all the days of E'-noch were three hundred sixty and five years:

Genesis 5:24 And E'-noch WALKED WITH GOD: and he was not; for GOD TOOK HIM.

The SCRIPTURES of the HOLY BIBLE also tell of the Story of the PROPHET ELIJAH, whom did not die, as did the PROPHETS of Jezebel. The SCRIPTURES describe how ELIJAH'S "under study", Elisha, witnessed the RAPTURE of ELIJAH.

2 Kings 2:9 And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that E-li'-jah said unto E-li'-sha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And E-li'-sha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy SPIRIT be upon me.

2 Kings 2:10 And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.

NOTE: The reason that ELIJAH told Elisha that in order for him to RECEIVE his request, he must witness the RAPTURE. This is because had Elisha not believed in the RAPTURE, he could not have WITNESSED IT! And if he did not BELIEVE, he wasn't WORTHY to RECEIVE that which he had requested!

2 Kings 2:11 And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, BEHOLD, there appeared a CHARIOT of FIRE, and HORSES of FIRE, and parted them both asunder; and Eli'-jah went up by a WHIRLWIND into HEAVEN.

2 Kings 2:12 And E-li'-sha SAW IT, and he cried, MY FATHER, MY FATHER, the CHARIOT of ISRAEL, and the HORSEMEN thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.

NOTE: As WE continue on through the SCRIPTURES that describe the PHENOMENA WE call RAPTURE, you should see that only a FOOL would dispute that it HAPPENS, regardless of what it is called. Nevertheless, this world is FULL of FOOLS!

In the Book of the PROPHET Isaiah, the RAPTURE is briefly mentioned regarding; the people whom are taken off the EARTH at the END TIME and put into a "PLACE of PROTECTION", to keep them from the EVIL that is about to come upon the world.

Isaiah 57:1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the RIGHTEOUS is taken away from the EVIL to COME.

The next example of RAPTURE comes at the TIME of JESUS CHRIST, prior to HIS crucifixion and RESURRECTION. The Disciples PETER, James, and JOHN witness the EVENT of RAPTURE, whereas JESUS is TRANSFIGURED into a BODY of LIGHT. JESUS MEETS with both MOSES and ELIJAH, whom by RAPTURE come from HEAVEN to the EARTH being also in BODIES of LIGHT, to SPEAK with JESUS.

Matthew 17:1 And after six days JESUS taketh PETER, James, and JOHN his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

Matthew 17:2 And was TRANSFIGURED before them: and HIS FACE did shine as the sun, and HIS raiment was WHITE as the LIGHT.

Matthew 17:3 And, BEHOLD, there appeared unto them MOSES and E-li'-as talking with HIM.

NOTE: How can these PHENOMENA be denied? These are all documented and WITNESSED EVENTS. Whether the EVENT is called, RAPTURE, or by another name! What difference does it make? Why listen to them who will be DENIED RAPTURE? For they will even deny it after it has happened! Don't be LEFT BEHIND!

The next RAPTURE occurs after JESUS' RESURRECTION, while HE walked with HIS DISCIPLES.

Luke 24:50 And HE led them out as far as to Beth'-a-ny, and HE lifted up HIS HANDS, and BLESSED them.

Luke 24:51 And it came to pass, while HE BLESSED them, HE was PARTED from them, and CARRIED UP INTO HEAVEN.

NOTE: It may be noted that I no longer refer to JESUS' Disciples as being Apostles as I had done in MY previous BOOKS. THE LORD has CORRECTED ME regarding this matter. Disciples are STUDENTS and Apostles are considered to be Teachers of the WORD of GOD. In the SCRIPTURES, the WORDS, "Rabbi" and "MASTER" both mean TEACHER, and JESUS says specifically to call no man your TEACHER, for ONLY ONE is your TEACHER, CHRIST, for HE is the WORD of GOD!

Matthew 23:8 BUT BE NOT YE CALLED RABBI: FOR ONE IS YOUR MASTER, EVEN CHRIST; AND ALL YE ARE BRETHREN.

Matthew 23:10 NEITHER BE YE CALLED MASTERS: FOR ONE IS YOUR MASTER, EVEN CHRIST.

You can see that even at the onset of the Church, by the Disciples referring to themselves as being Apostles, meaning Teachers or Masters of the WORD of GOD, they were doing exactly what JESUS CHRIST had FORBID them to do! So I ask you, how could they have considered themselves to be Christians when they were DISOBEYING that which JESUS CHRIST had TAUGHT and following their own doctrine, rather than the WORD of GOD? On the EARTH a person can never attain the LEVEL of Teacher of the WORD of GOD, you are a STUDENT at best, never FORGET this!

The next RAPTURE occurs to the Disciple JOHN, when he is given the REVELATION of JESUS CHRIST. This RAPTURE entails only the MOVEMENT of JOHN in SPIRIT. His body of flesh remained in his prison cell on the Island of Patmos while his SPIRIT ASCENDED UP to HEAVEN.

Revelation 4:1 After this I looked, and, BEHOLD, a door was opened in HEAVEN: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, COME UP HITHER, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

FUTURE RAPTURES

The balance of RAPTURE referred to by SCRIPTURE has yet to take place, but I BELIEVE that the FIRST RAPTURE, the "RAPTURE of THE BRIDE" can happen at anytime now! The RAPTURE of THE BRIDE will occur at the SOUNDING of the FIRST TRUMPET. This RAPTURE is referred to as "PARALLEL RAPTURE", because THE BRIDE will be taken into a PARALLEL DIMENSION, to a "PLACE of PROTECTION". This PLACE is a gigantic CITY built into a mountain of ROCK in another DIMENSION, referred to by SCRIPTURE as being a PLACE in the WILDERNESS. THE BRIDE will remain there for three and one-half years during the time of GREAT TRIBULATION.

Revelation 12:6 And the WOMAN fled into the WILDERNESS, where she hath a PLACE prepared of GOD, that THEY should feed HER there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

Eighteen months after the BRIDE has RECEIVED RAPTURE, at the SOUNDING of the THIRD TRUMPET, the TWO WITNESSES, whom are KING DAVID and KING SOLOMON in SPIRIT, will also RECEIVE RAPTURE. This is called the SECOND TRIBULATION RAPTURE! They who are to be SAVED thereafter will witness this RAPTURE, and will REPENT to GOD of their SINS. SCRIPTURE REFERS to this GROUP of PEOPLE as being the (REMNANT) WEDDING GUESTS. These PEOPLE will RECEIVE the SEAL of the LIVING GOD on their foreheads, as did the TRIBULATION SAINTS. READ Ezekiel, chapter 9 in its entirety. This explains how the MARKING and SEALING of the TRIBULATION SAINTS and the WEDDING GUESTS will take place.

Revelation 11:11 And after three days and an half the SPIRIT of LIFE from GOD entered into THEM, and THEY stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw THEM.

Revelation 11:12 And THEY heard a GREAT VOICE from HEAVEN saying unto THEM, COME UP HITHER. And THEY ASCENDED up to HEAVEN in a cloud; and THEIR enemies beheld THEM.

Revelation 11:13 And the same hour was there a GREAT EARTHQUAKE, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the REMNANT were AFFRIGHTED, and gave GLORY to the GOD of HEAVEN.

Three months after the RAPTURE of the TWO WITNESSES, at the POURING OUT of the FIRST VIAL of the WRATH of GOD, the THIRD RAPTURE will occur. JESUS CHRIST will be SEEN COMING in the CLOUDS for this RAPTURE, and everyone on the Earth will witness this EVENT as it takes place! At this time the ONE HUNDRED and FORTY-FOUR THOUSAND TRIBULATION SAINTS will be taken; as will the three hundred eighty-nine million, six hundred thousand WEDDING GUESTS to the same PLACE the BRIDE was taken to; the SEVENTH PARALLEL DIMENSION, called the LOVE DIMENSION!

Revelation 12:14 And to the WOMAN were given two wings of a GREAT EAGLE, that she might FLY into the WILDERNESS, into HER PLACE, where SHE is nourished for a TIME, and TIMES, and HALF a TIME, from the face of the SERPENT.

Those who will be left behind, the non-believers of the RAPTURE, will realize at that time they had been LIED to by their Churches, and that their only option now will be in their REFUSING to take the "Mark of the Beast". SCRIPTURE calls this group the "BEHEADED SOULS". By their MARTYRING themselves in the NAME of GOD, and for the TESTIMONY of JESUS CHRIST, this group may enter into the NEW MILLENNIUM for the ONE THOUSAND YEAR PERIOD. The MARTYRS however DO NOT receive ETERNITY, and will be given an opportunity to become a WEDDING GUEST in the next EARTH CYCLE. In addition to an opportunity in being a WEDDING GUEST, they are also PROMISED, because of their martyring themselves, they will never be made to SUFFER the SECOND DEATH. This means they will never be made to go to HELL!

Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the SOULS of them that were BEHEADED for the witness of JESUS, and for the WORD of GOD, and which had not worshipped the BEAST, neither his IMAGE, neither had received his MARK upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they LIVED and reigned with CHRIST a THOUSAND YEARS.

The "BEHEADED SOULS" represent approximately two billion people, onethird of the Earth's population. The two billion die over the last twenty-one months of the GREAT TRIBULATION. SCRIPTURE refers to this group as the ONE-THIRD that is taken through the FIRE and purified like silver. Thus making them acceptable to be called, GOD'S PEOPLE.

Zechariah 13:9 AND I WILL BRING THE THIRD PART THROUGH THE FIRE, AND WILL REFINE THEM AS SILVER IS REFINED, AND WILL TRY THEM AS GOLD IS TRIED: THEY SHALL CALL ON MY NAME, AND I WILL HEAR THEM: I WILL SAY, IT IS MY PEOPLE: AND THEY SHALL SAY, THE LORD IS MY GOD.

THE FINAL TRIBULATION RAPTURE

The FOURTH and FINAL TRIBULATION RAPTURE will happen at the first SOUNDING of the SEVENTH TRUMPET. The SEVENTH TRUMPET sounds twice; once at the conclusion of the GREAT TRIBULATION, and again at the CONCLUSION of the LAST DAY; thus marking the END of the MILLENNIUM, the PASSING of JUDGMENT, and the END of the WORLD!

The FINAL TRIBULATION RAPTURE, occurring at the first SOUNDING of the SEVENTH TRUMPET, is both a VERTICAL and TRANSFIGURATION RAPTURE. The FOUR plus BILLION PEOPLE that are in PARADISE and ASLEEP in the EARTH are ARISEN from the EARTH and TRANSFIGURED into their MILLENNIA BODIES as are the BEHEADED SOULS. ALL three groups, them from PARADISE, the BEHEADED SOULS, and them in the SEVENTH DIMENSION are TRANSFIGURED into their NEW PHYSICAL FORM (MILLENNIUM BODIES) and TAKEN into NEW JERUSALEM that has been brought down by GOD from HEAVEN. It is there where they will REMAIN throughout the ONE THOUSAND YEARS, living in PEACE and HARMONY with GOD and the LAMB in NEW JERUSALEM.

In SUMMARY: The EVENT WE call RAPTURE occurs throughout the SCRIPTURES of the HOLY BIBLE, and although the word, "rapture", does not appear in the HOLY BIBLE, the PHENOMENON does. Even the Disciple Paul with all of his problems UNDERSTOOD this.

1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the TRUMPET shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be CHANGED.

Chapter Seven
IMMACULATE BIRTH

The term "IMMACULATE BIRTH" is continually used within the Christian Church, thus meaning by the Church definition, a birth being free from the act of fornication. This is used as a point of defending the Church's belief that Mary immaculately conceived JESUS CHRIST. Therefore making JESUS' birth an act void of participation by HIS FATHER, JOSEPH. This is an improper belief by the Church, because "IMMACULATE BIRTH" hasn't anything to do with physical birth whatsoever!

Furthermore, how could JESUS be in the LINEAGE of the Kings of Israel if HIS FATHER JOSEPH hadn't any physical connection to him? Chapter 1 of the GOSPEL of Matthew is dedicated to giving the LINEAGE of JESUS CHRIST from ABRAHAM up through King DAVID to HIS FATHER JOSEPH, thus showing that JESUS shared in the DNA of HIS FATHER and forefathers. This indicates by SCRIPTURE that JESUS shared in the DNA STRAND of JOSEPH, HIS FATHER, therefore they BOTH had to have had a PHYSICAL CONNECTION to be both of the same DNA STRUCTURE.

The same is TRUE of Mary, JESUS' Mother. In the GOSPEL of Luke, chapter 3, verses 23 to 38, SCRIPTURE gives JESUS' LINEAGE from Mary back through the Prophets to Nathan, Son of King DAVID, and then all the way back to ADAM, SON of GOD. How could JESUS share in HIS Mother's DNA STRUCTURE if HE had not come from her EGG, and HIS FATHER'S DNA STRUCTURE if HE had not come from JOSEPH'S SPERM?

It must be UNDERSTOOD that the SPIRITUAL SEED of CHRIST was tied to a SPECIFIC DNA STRAND that was INTENDED by GOD to be PASSED down through the GENERATIONS from ADAM to both JOSEPH and MARY. It was by the LINEAGE of BOTH JOSEPH and Mary that the Kings and the Prophets of ISRAEL could COMBINE and BRING FORTH a FINAL KING and a FINAL PROPHET, called by name, JESUS CHRIST!

It was intended by GOD, that JESUS would RECEIVE by INHERITANCE HIS CHRIST HERITAGE when HE came of AGE. By Jewish law, the INHERITOR, the FIRST BORN SON, would RECEIVE that which HE had INHERITED from HIS FATHER at the age of THIRTY YEARS. Even though JESUS had assumed the HEAD of HOUSEHOLD after HIS FATHER'S death, and took charge over the Family's holdings at a very young age, HE could not take POSSESSION of HIS CHRIST HERITAGE until after HE had turned THIRTY years old. This is why JESUS was BAPTIZED just after HIS THIRTIETH-BIRTHDAY. It was at that time HE could RECEIVE HIS CHRIST ENTITLEMENT, THAT WHICH CAME BY WAY OF BAPTISM BY HIS FATHER, the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD.

The TRUE STORY of JESUS' Physical Birth

In MY other THREE BOOKS, JESUS' physical birth was somewhat implied to be that of a normal childbirth, but the BOOKS did not clearly defined it as such. THE LORD wants this BOOK to accurately tell the story, the TRUE STORY of the BIRTH of JESUS CHRIST. The entire story of JESUS' immaculate birth told by the Church; was made-up by the Church, to bolster the belief that JESUS is CHRIST. Although the Church's intentions were good in their fabricating and promoting the Story of a Physical Immaculate Birth, the Story has BACKFIRED over the years and has turned-off many people in their BELIEF in JESUS and in the WORD of GOD.

At first I had thought that the Stories of JESUS' immaculate birth had in someway came forth from Mary, JESUS' Mother. However, THE LORD has explained to ME in GREAT DETAIL the TRUE STORY, and has told ME that Mary hadn't taken any part in the stories being told regarding JESUS' birth and childhood. THE LORD said that the stories came forth long after the deaths of Mary and many of the original Disciples, and the Church's justification for the creation of the stories was in their attempt to make JESUS' STORY fit the PROPHECY of HIS COMING. Unfortunately, the Church did not UNDERSTAND the SCRIPTURES, or the PROPHECY in them.

The main SCRIPTURE of their MISUNDERSTANDING was that which was written by the Prophet Isaiah: foretelling of how a VIRGIN was to CONCEIVE and bare a CHILD whom was to be called IMMANUEL. Their first misunderstanding of the SCRIPTURE was in their interpretation of what the word. "VIRGIN" had meant in the SCRIPTURE. Let US take you through the SCRIPTURE and accurately define it in its literal meaning and in its PROPHETIC meaning.

Isaiah 7:14 Therefore THE LORD HIMSELF shall give you a sign; BEHOLD, a VIRGIN shall CONCEIVE, and bear a SON, and shall call HIS NAME IM-MAN'-U-EL.

The word, "VIRGIN", in this SCRIPTURE, means both a young woman whom has not yet been married; and also a young woman that has not yet lost her virginity; with the emphasis being placed on the Young Woman's UNMARRIED state when she CONCEIVES. This SCRIPTURE foretells exactly what had happened to Mary, when the TRUE STORY is TOLD.

Mary and JOSEPH both lived in Jerusalem. JOSEPH had proposed marriage to Mary on the night in which she CONCEIVED. So the PROMISE of MARRIAGE was made prior to her CONCEPTION, and in the EYES of GOD, once JOSEPH had chosen to have sex with Mary, and LAY with HER, HE then had taken Mary for HIS WIFE. However, by Jewish custom, a marriage between a man and a woman was not complete prior to the Marriage Ceremony, and any sexual act prior to their Ceremonial Wedding was an act of defilement of the marriage.

Once Mary had realized that she had become pregnant, her and JOSEPH left the area of Jerusalem and SECRETLY moved to BETHLEHEM, where she intended to have the CHILD. This was done to spare them both the embarrassment of premarital pregnancy. There was never a Marriage Ceremony performed regarding JOSEPH and Mary, and the people who came to know them in BETHLEHEM, believed them to be already married. Before JESUS was even a year old, some of the people whom had known JOSEPH and Mary in Jerusalem, had also moved into BETHLEHEM, and had spotted Mary in the Marketplace. Mary avoided making contact with them because she feared that they would find out about the BIRTH of JESUS, and pass this information back to their friends and family in Jerusalem. Unbeknown by their friends of old, that Mary had already had a baby, the TWO and the BABY secretly left BETHLEHEM and moved into Egypt, where Mary gave birth to six more children over an eight-year span. Shortly after the birth of Judas, JESUS' youngest sibling, JOSEPH, Mary, and the family moved back into Israel to live. They had decided to live in the City of Nazareth of Galilee, where they were not known, however; a brief stop had to be made in Jerusalem, to participate in the census being taking there.

The people in the area of Jerusalem, whom had known JOSEPH and Mary prior to marriage, saw them during their brief stop there; and had assumed that JOSEPH and Mary had gotten married in BETHLEHEM, where they had heard they had moved to after leaving Jerusalem. They also were led to believe that ALL SEVEN children were born in Nazareth, because Mary told them so, and that is what was recorded on the Census Register, which later became public record. This is why JESUS was known as JESUS of Nazareth, and HIS being born in BETHLEHEM was a well-kept secret. Nor was it known or made public that JESUS' siblings were born in Egypt; this was done in an effort to protect the Children's citizenship rights.

JESUS KNEW that HE was born in BETHLEHEM, but never shared that information with ANYONE, thus sparing HIS Mother any embarrassment and also keeping the citizenship rights of HIS Brothers and Sisters out of jeopardy! Even JESUS' Disciples believed that HE had been BORN in Nazareth of Galilee. This was but another reason why the Early Church had fabricated the story of JESUS' BIRTH; indicating HE had been born of Immaculate Conception in BETHLEHEM, rather than in Nazareth as the Census Records had indicated. This was done in a deceptive effort to fulfill the SCRIPTURE indicating that the MESSIAH was to come forth from BETHLEHEM.

Micah 5:2 But thou, Beth'-le-hem Eph-ra-tah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet OUT OF THEE shall HE COME FORTH UNTO ME that is to be RULER in ISRAEL; whose goings forth have been from of OLD, from EVERLASTING.

The following SCRIPTURES taken from the GOSPEL of JOHN indicate that when JESUS was introduced to HIS newest Disciple, Nathanael, by Philip, Nathanael questioned how JESUS could be the MESSIAH, if HE had been born in Nazareth. Nathanael knew from SCRIPTURE that the MESSIAH was to come forth from BETHLEHEM.

However, the skepticism of Nathanael was soon put to rest, when JESUS identified Nathanael's secret place of PRAYER. This was a LONE FIG TREE that sat amidst a grove of olive trees, that which could not be seen from the path or by any passer-bys. Nathanael knew when JESUS said that HE had saw him PRAYING there, that JESUS was indeed the MESSIAH, because no one other than he and GOD had known about that PLACE!

John 1:45 Philip findeth Na-than'-a-el, and saith unto him, We have found HIM, of whom MOSES in the LAW, and the PROPHETS, did write, JESUS of Nazareth, the SON of JOSEPH.

John 1:46 And Na-than'-a-el said unto him, Can there any GOOD thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and SEE.

John 1:47 JESUS saw Na-than'-a-el coming to HIM, and saith of him, BEHOLD AN ISRAELITE INDEED, IN WHOM IS NO GUILE!

John 1:48 Na-than'-a-el saith unto HIM, Whence knowest thou me? JESUS answered and said unto him, BEFORE THAT PHILIP CALLED THEE, WHEN THOU WAST UNDER THE FIG TREE, I SAW THEE.

John 1:49 Na-than'-a-el answered and saith unto HIM, RABBI, thou art the SON of GOD; thou art the KING of ISRAEL.

What is IMMACULATE BIRTH?

Although the Church, due to their lack of UNDERSTANDING, tries to tie JESUS' physical birth to being an IMMACULATE BIRTH, JESUS did indeed have an IMMACULATE BIRTH, albeit not a physical one. JESUS' IMMACULATE BIRTH took place at the time of JESUS' BAPTISM, when HE was THIRTY YEARS OLD! An IMMACULATE BIRTH is a SPIRITUAL BIRTH, a birth free from fornication, the BIRTH of the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT to MANKIND, that which comes only by BAPTISM in the SPIRIT of GOD. Some Churches refer to this CONVERSION as being a REBORN Christian, thus matching the following SCRIPTURES. However, the Churches teach FALSELY, claiming that they can perform this BAPTISM. THUS SAITH THE LORD THY GOD, THE CHURCHES CANNOT PERFORM THIS BAPTISM: ONLY CHRIST, MY FIRSTBORN, ONLY HE CAN PERFORM THIS BAPTISM!

POINT: It may be noted, NO ONE, other than JESUS CHRIST had been BAPTIZED in the SPIRIT of GOD until after JESUS' RESURRECTION (ref: John 7:39). Only JESUS can BAPTIZE in the SPIRIT of GOD.

John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nic-o-demus, a ruler of the Jews:

John 3:2 The same came to JESUS by night, and said unto HIM, RABBI, we know that thou art a TEACHER come from GOD: for no man can do these MIRACLES that thou doest, except GOD be with HIM.

John 3:3 JESUS answered and said unto him, VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO THEE, EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN AGAIN, HE CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

John 3:4 Nic-o-de'-mus saith unto HIM, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

John 3:5 JESUS answered, VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO THEE, EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN OF WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, HE CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

John 3:6 THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE FLESH IS FLESH; AND THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT.

NOTE: The WATER spoken of in the SCRIPTURE is the "LIVING WATERS", the WORD of GOD and the SPIRIT spoken of is the SPIRIT of GOD coming by way of BAPTISM. JESUS CHRIST is the WORD of GOD, and only JESUS CHRIST PERFORMS SPIRITUAL BAPTISM! There is not a person alive, nor has there ever been other than JESUS, that can perform SPIRITUAL BAPTISM! Therefore, any person or Church claiming otherwise, are LIARS! The Disciples were told to teach that BAPTISM in the NAME of THE FATHER, THE SON, and THE HOLY GHOST, is a REQUIREMENT to ENTER the KINGDOM of GOD, not that they were to perform the BAPTISM, they were to teach of it.

Matthew 28:19 GO YE THEREFORE, AND TEACH ALL NATIONS, BAPTIZING THEM IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, AND OF THE SON, AND OF THE HOLY GHOST:

Matthew 28:20 TEACHING THEM TO OBSERVE ALL THINGS WHATSOEVER I HAVE COMMANDED YOU: AND, LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAY, EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD. A-MEN.

IMMACULATE BIRTH takes place as a result of being BORN of WATER and of SPIRIT, coming by WAY of JESUS CHRIST the WORD of GOD. It may also be noted that John 3:16, that is so often quoted by the Church, is only applicable to them whom have FULFILLED all the REQUIREMENTS of Chapter 3 of the GOSPEL of John. ETERNITY is not an open PROMISE, ETERNITY REQUIRES an IMMACULATE BIRTH!

John 3:16 FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.

If you want the PROMISE of John 3:16 to apply to YOU, READ the entire Third Chapter of the GOSPEL of John and make SURE you are in COMPLIANCE with ALL of the REQUIREMENTS set forth in the THIRD CHAPTER. Being REBORN in the SPIRIT of GOD is A MANDATE by SCRIPTURE for ONE to RECEIVE ETERNITY!

ANOTHER POINT TO BE MADE: The Church teaches and many believe that Nicodemus eventually became a Disciple of JESUS CHRIST; however, this is a FALSE BELIEF! Nicodemus did love his religion more than he loved JESUS CHRIST, and even though he believed in most of what JESUS had taught; he didn't believe in SPIRITUAL REBIRTH because he didn't UNDERSTAND it; nor did he desire to give up his religion. When Nicodemus asked JESUS if a man can reenter his mother's womb a second time to be reborn, he was being sarcastic and JESUS knew it!

After JESUS' death, a wealthy businessman by the name of Joseph of Arimathaea whom also hid his relationship regarding JESUS, as did Nicodemus, let it be known publicly, by requesting from Pilate that the BODY of JESUS be placed in his custody. Nicodemus on the other-hand tried to help covertly by obtaining the burial compounds for JESUS' burial. Thus he could do that in secret, and not have to expose himself, regarding JESUS. Whereas Joseph of Arimathaea hid his Discipleship while JESUS was yet alive, he openly PROCLAIMED his association with JESUS CHRIST after HIS death, and RECEIVED BAPTISM, and SAVING GRACE by JESUS. Nicodemus never received BAPTISM, nor SAVING GRACE, and remained a Pharisee of the Synagogue. Nicodemus now sleeps in the dust of the earth, awaiting JUDGMENT!

John 19:38 And after this Joseph of Ar-i-ma-thae'-a, being a Disciple of JESUS, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of JESUS: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of JESUS.

John 19:39 And there came also Nic-o-de'-mus, which at the first came to JESUS by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

John 19:40 Then took they the body of JESUS, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

John 19:41 Now in the place where HE was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.

John 19:42 There laid they JESUS therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

NOTE: The point being made by the SCRIPTURE; is because the tomb (Sepulchre) was very near to where JESUS was crucified, and because the Pharisees were all busy preparing for the PASSOVER, Nicodemus could help in JESUS' burial without being seen by them. The LAYER of the SCRIPTURE identifies Nicodemus as being a person who believed in JESUS, but was not COMMITTED to HIM. JESUS says that you cannot serve TWO MASTERS and in the case of Nicodemus he wanted to serve both his religion and JESUS. However his religion PREVAILED!

Chapter Eight
(BRA-GA-TAH) POWER of CHRIST

The word, BRA-GA-TAH, means ALMIGHTY POWER in (TONGUES), the HEBREWAH Language. The word, CHRIST, translates to the word. IMMANUEL, in the HEBREWAH Language, and the word, IMMANUEL, means "AS ONE WITH GOD" in the English Language. When the word CHRIST and IMMANUEL are COMBINED in the ENGLISH LANGUAGE, with CHRIST meaning "the ANOINTED ONE", and IMMANUEL meaning "ONENESS WITH GOD", the COMBINED TERM, CHRIST-IMMANUEL, means, the UNIFICATION of MANKIND in GOD. By this UNIFICATION in GOD, CHRIST is ANOINTED (EMPOWERED) by GOD to ACT on GOD'S BEHALF!

Revelation 12:10 And I heard a LOUD VOICE saying in HEAVEN, Now is come SALVATION, and STRENGTH, and the KINGDOM of OUR GOD, and the POWER of HIS CHRIST: for the ACCUSER of our BRETHREN is cast down, which accused them before OUR GOD day and night.

Revelation 12:11 And THEY overcame him by the BLOOD of the LAMB, and by the WORD of THEIR TESTIMONY; and THEY loved not their lives unto the death.

Revelation 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye HEAVENS, and ye that dwell in THEM. WOE to the INHABITERS of the EARTH and of the SEA! For the DEVIL is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Revelation 12:13 And when the DRAGON saw that he was cast unto the EARTH, he persecuted the WOMAN which brought forth the MAN CHILD.

The preceding SCRIPTURES indicate that CHRIST will RECEIVE EMPOWERMENT sometime prior to the time that the Devil is cast down to the earth! The EMPOWERMENT will vary amongst INDIVIDUALS within specific GROUPS, and will also vary between the GROUPS. THE GROUP "IN CHRIST" (GOD'S CHILDREN), "THE BRIDE", will be given the GREATEST POWER, whereas the GROUP "OF CHRIST" (GOD'S PEOPLE, ISRAEL) the "WEDDING GUESTS" will be given LIMITED POWER, and the Group referred to as the "Beheaded Souls" will not be given any POWER whatsoever, because they are yet to be of CHRIST!

The word, "WOMAN" as used in Chapter 12 of the Book of Revelation, takes on different identities throughout the SCRIPTURES of Chapter 12. The word, "WOMAN", as used in the 13th verse of the 12th Chapter, identifies the WOMAN as being the EARTH. Therefore, the SCRIPTURE indicates the DRAGON (the Devil), will PERSECUTE the entire EARTH. Once the Devil is cast down onto the EARTH, he will take on three forms. The first form is called the 1st BEAST (God of Forces), the second form will be called the 2nd Beast (Antichrist), and the third form will be that of the "False Prophet". Each one of the Devil's forms will take power over the various establishments and organizations throughout the world that will be needed to take control of the World. This doesn't mean that there will only be three persons to contend with, for there will be many, because the Devil's Advocates will, and have assumed most positions of power. In most cases, the people whom serve Lucifer are already in power, although they themselves are unaware of their allegiance to the Devil. Therefore, changes in personnel in most cases will not be necessary, for the vast majority of the Devil's personnel are already in place!

The TWO WITNESSES

The TWO WITNESSES (Revelation 11:3-11:12) are TWO MEN that will SERVE THE LORD on the EARTH for FORTY-TWO MONTHS. However, their IDENTITIES and their EMPOWERMENT in CHRIST will not be obvious to them or others until the last EIGHTEEN MONTHS of their MINISTRY begins. These TWO MEN bear the SPIRITS of KING DAVID and KING SOLOMON, and they will be able to cause much grief for the Devil and his Advocates, once they are EMPOWERED! Their EMPOWERMENT in CHRIST will begin at the SOUNDING of the FIRST TRUMPET, at the TIME of the FIRST TRIBULATION RAPTURE, the RAPTURE of the "BRIDE of CHRIST".

The MINISTRY of the TWO WITNESSES will entail distribution of the WORD of GOD in various forms throughout the World, and there will be much controversy regarding them and their TESTIMONY. Even though the TWO WITNESSES do not openly preach, they will still be considered by the Church to be products of the Antichrist and labeled as such; and the Church will warn its Congregations (Patrons), to not subscribe to any of their literature and to avoid any contact whatsoever with them.

At the conclusion of their MINISTRY, the TWO WITNESSES will be killed, and people will be afraid to even touch their dead bodies. So their dead bodies will be left to lie in the street for THREE and ONE-HALF DAYS, because the people will fear that the TWO are possessed with demons, as their Church Leaders had told them. However, at the end of the THREE and ONE-HALF DAYS; GOD will RESURRECT the TWO WITNESSES and RAPTURE them; and many people will witness the RAPTURE and realize that they were not of the Antichrist, but rather of GOD. And, those people will REPENT unto GOD, and turn away from the Churches whom had DECEIVED them. They will then turn towards the TRIBULATION SAINTS for their PROTECTION from the Devil, the Antichrist, and the Devil's Advocates.

Revelation 11:3 And I will give POWER unto MY TWO WITNESSES, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

Revelation 11:4 These are the TWO OLIVE TREES, and the TWO CANDLESTICKS standing before the GOD of the EARTH.

The TRIBULATION SAINTS

The TRIBULATION SAINTS will consist of one hundred and forty-four thousand INDIVIDUALS whom are of the BRIDE or are of the EARTH ANGEL. On the EARTH, the BRIDE and the EARTH ANGEL are nearly identical in their ANOINTING and SERVICE to GOD. GOD will intentionally leave behind these PEOPLE to MINISTER to them who are to be the WEDDING GUESTS. Although they are certainly WORTHY to RECEIVE RAPTURE with the OTHERS of the BRIDE, they will not, but they will RECEIVE the SEAL of the LIVING GOD for a SEAL of PROTECTION shortly after the RAPTURE of the BRIDE.

Even though this GROUP will appear to be of all ethnic backgrounds, if their ROOTS could be traced back to the time of JACOB, Son of ISAAC and REBEKAH, it would be seen that all one hundred and forty-four thousand are GENETICALLY tied to the TWELVE TRIBES of ISRAEL; with twelve thousand of each of them coming from each one of the TWELVE TRIBES (see Chapter Seven of Revelation). The SEAL that each of them will BEAR, will both PROTECT and EMPOWER them as the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD so deems. This GROUP will be the ONLY ONE'S left on the EARTH that will have RECEIVED BAPTISM, and no one after them will receive BAPTISM, even though they may RECEIVE SAVING GRACE. BAPTISM will not resume until after the NEW MILLENNIUM begins! Once the HOLY SPIRIT leaves the EARTH at the TIME of the RAPTURE of the BRIDE; there will no longer be a BAPTISM of the HOLY SPIRIT available; even to them whom are WORTHY of it.

The TRIBULATION SAINTS will remain on the EARTH up until the TIME of the RETURN of JESUS CHRIST. JESUS will RETURN TWENTY-ONE MONTHS into the GREAT TRIBULATION, just prior to the POURING OUT of the FIRST VIAL of the WRATH of GOD. HE will then gather up the TRIBULATION SAINTS and the GUESTS of the WEDDING SUPPER and take them to the PLACE of PROTECTION where the BRIDE had been taken TWENTY-ONE MONTHS prior.

Revelation 14:1 And I looked, and, lo, a LAMB stood on the mount Si'-on, and with HIM an HUNDRED FORTY and FOUR THOUSAND, having HIS FATHER'S NAME WRITTEN in THEIR foreheads.

Not even one of the TRIBULATION SAINTS will be LOST during their stay on the EARTH, however; ONE-HALF of the Group of the WEDDING GUESTS will not make it. They will FAIL due to their lacking in PREPARATION for the RETURN of JESUS CHRIST. This can be related to the PARABLE of the TEN VIRGINS given by JESUS in the 25th Chapter of the GOSPEL of Matthew and also by the following SCRIPTURES taken from Matthew.

Matthew 24:40 THEN SHALL TWO BE IN THE FIELD; THE ONE SHALL BE TAKEN, AND THE OTHER LEFT.

Matthew 24:41 TWO WOMEN SHALL BE GRINDING AT THE MILL; THE ONE SHALL BE TAKEN, AND THE OTHER LEFT.

Matthew 24:42 WATCH THEREFORE: FOR YE KNOW NOT WHAT HOUR YOUR LORD DOTH COME.

Due to the WEDDING GUESTS lacking in BAPTISM, they will also lack in FAITH. For HOLY SPIRIT FAITH comes only by way of BAPTISM. It is this lack of FAITH that causes one-half of the WEDDING GUESTS to fail!

EMPOWERMENT Detail

The EMPOWERMENT will vary amongst INDIVIDUALS and amongst the various GROUPS. The TWO WITNESSES will RECEIVE all NINE GIFTS of the HOLY SPIRIT, whereas the TRIBULATION SAINTS will RECEIVE between THREE and SIX of the GIFTS. However, when the TRIBULATION SAINTS gather even in small groups, a combination of all NINE GIFTS will be present for the group as a whole. A list of the GIFTS are given below:

The GIFT of FAITH is always the FIRST GIFT given to any INDIVIDUAL having RECEIVED BAPTISM, for it is by HOLY SPIRIT FAITH that DEATH is DEFEATED. This means that whomsoever has RECEIVED the GIFT of FAITH, hasn't any fear of death whatsoever. It is the FEAR of DEATH that causes FAILURE in the TRUST of GOD.

The GIFT of KNOWLEDGE allows the BEHOLDER to UNDERSTAND and RETAIN SCRIPTURE. This GIFT along with the GIFT of FAITH that is GIVEN to ALL, allows that INDIVIDUAL the ability to not only UNDERSTAND and RETAIN SCRIPTURE, but to also BELIEVE in it, even to the point of death; if it need be!

The GIFT of WISDOM allows the BEHOLDER to APPLY SCRIPTURE accurately to whatsoever the situation may entail. This GIFT is always GIVEN in conjunction with the GIFT of KNOWLEDGE. However the GIFT of KNOWLEDGE can be GIVEN without the GIFT of WISDOM.

The GIFT of HEALING allows its BEHOLDER to HEAL all forms of AILMENT, whether the AILMENT is of a SPIRITUAL or PHYSICAL nature. This GIFT is rarely GIVEN to an INDIVIDUAL whom has not RECEIVED the GIFT of SPEAKING HEBREWAH (TONGUES). However, on rare occasions, this GIFT can be EXERCISED in a COMMON LANGUAGE.

The GIFT of MIRACLES allows them BEHOLDING of it the ability to perform NATURAL and SUPERNATURAL ACTS. These acts can be directed at specific individuals or groups of people, even groups as large as metropolitan cities. The MIRACULOUS acts can include drastic changes in weather, plagues or diseases at epidemic levels, directed bolts of lightening aimed at specific areas, localized earthquakes with seismic levels below that of 6 on a Rector Scale, and a whole host of curses that can be directed at individuals, families, businesses, organizations, and townships. The laws of physics need not govern the MIRACLES, nor can any forces upon the earth delay or divert them. Once the MIRACLE has been levied, it WILL COME TO PASS SAITH THE LORD!

The GIFT of PROPHECY allows its BEHOLDER the ability to accurately interpret BIBLICAL PROPHECY, and apply that PROPHECY to individuals, organizations, and governments on a city, state, national or even a worldwide scale. This GIFT also entails the ability to PREDICT very specific EVENTS, at a detailed level, prior to the EVENT'S taking place!

The GIFT of SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT allows the BEHOLDER the ability to SEE SPIRITUAL MATTER, whether it emanates GOOD or evil. A PERSON bearing this GIFT has the ability to SEE, that which is normally invisible to the human eye. They can even see the AURA produced by the SEAL of the LIVING GOD, demonic presence or possession, and to know at a glance, whom, spiritually they are VIEWING.

The GIFT of SPEAKING HEBREWAH (TONGUES) allows the ONE BEHOLDING it the ABILITY to SPEAK DIRECTLY to GOD, or to speak in any of the common earthly languages. This GIFT requires HOLY SPIRIT PRESENCE, so after the HOLY SPIRIT has left the EARTH, this GIFT will be LIMITED and given to only a FEW INDIVIDUALS during the GREAT TRIBULATION. This is a very UNIQUE GIFT in as much as by having it, a DIRECT LINK to GOD is GIVEN, and the POWER of GOD RESIDES with that INDIVIDUAL! Therefore, GOD through that INDIVIDUAL MAY ACT by USE of any of the NINE GIFTS, or DEMONSTRATE HIS POWER and WRATH by that INDIVIDUAL in any way!

The GIFT of LANGUAGE INTERPRETATION gives its BEHOLDER the ability to INTERPRET both the HEBREWAH LANGUAGE and any common earthly language. This GIFT is rarely given to an INDIVIDUAL whom has the ability to SPEAK IN HEBREWAH, and only THEM having ALL NINE GIFTS may SPEAK and INTERPRET HEBREWAH. In HEAVEN, the COMMON LANGUAGE spoken throughout is ENGLISH, and HEBREWAH (SPIRITUAL LANGUAGE) is only SPOKEN at the THRONE of GOD. Only at the SIXTH LEVEL, the LEVEL of the SAINTS, PROPHETS, and ELDERS or ABOVE is the GIFTS of SPEAKING and INTERPRETING HEBREWAH GIVEN. However, ALL of the ANGELS have this GIFT, this is because HEBREWAH is the NATIVE LANGUAGE of the ANGELS, and it is not considered to be a GIFT but rather a part of the ANGELIC REALM'S HERITAGE.

Synopsis

Once the GREAT TRIBULATION begins, even though the Devil will have control over the World, he will not have any control whatsoever of GOD'S CHILDREN, or them under the CARE of GOD'S CHILDREN. Each and every effort the Devil might try in overcoming them, will FAIL, and the CONSEQUENCES for his efforts will be DEVASTATING to him, and to them that follow him. The WEDDING GUESTS that fail; fail not from a lack of CARE; but rather from a lack of FAITH in THEM caring for them.

In addition to the GIFTS provided to GOD'S CHILDREN, CHRIST, there will be a whole host of HEAVENLY ANGELS on the EARTH in SUPPORT of CHRIST! THUS SAITH THE LORD THY GOD, THE POWER OF CHRIST WILL PREVAIL!

Chapter Nine
HOLY SPIRIT PRESENCE

John 16:7 NEVERTHELESS I TELL YOU THE TRUTH; IT IS EXPEDIENT FOR YOU THAT I GO AWAY: FOR IF I GO NOT AWAY, THE COMFORTER WILL NOT COME UNTO YOU; BUT IF I DEPART, I WILL SEND HIM UNTO YOU.

John 16:8 AND WHEN HE IS COME, HE WILL REPROVE THE WORLD OF SIN, AND OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND OF JUDGMENT:

John 16:9 OF SIN, BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE NOT ON ME;

John 16:10 OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, BECAUSE I GO TO MY FATHER, AND YE SEE ME NO MORE;

John 16:11 OF JUDGMENT, BECAUSE THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD IS JUDGED.

John 16:12 I HAVE YET MANY THINGS TO SAY UNTO YOU, BUT YE CANNOT BEAR THEM NOW.

John 16:13 HOWBEIT WHEN HE, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, IS COME, HE WILL GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH: FOR HE SHALL NOT SPEAK OF HIMSELF; BUT WHATSOEVER HE SHALL HEAR, THAT SHALL HE SPEAK: AND HE WILL SHEW YOU THINGS TO COME.

These last few SCRIPTURES taken from the GOSPEL of John tells of how each INDIVIDUAL believing in JESUS CHRIST will RECEIVE the HOLY SPIRIT through HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM. This was only made POSSIBLE as a result of JESUS' death and RESURRECTION. JESUS was VICTORIOUS over death, because HE was REBORN in the SPIRIT of GOD, and GOD is the SPIRIT of LIFE. ALL who RECEIVE BAPTISM; RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST, and HIS RESURRECTION unto LIFE. It is JESUS CHRIST, the WORD of GOD, WHOM performs this BAPTISM. No one else can do it! As John the Baptist had Baptized with water, so does JESUS CHRIST do with LIVING WATERS, and the LIVING WATERS are the WORD of GOD. What John the Baptist did in the FLESH, JESUS CHRIST does in the SPIRIT of GOD. BAPTISM is a SPIRITUAL EVENT.

FEELING the PRESENCE of the HOLY SPIRIT

JESUS compares the FEELING of the HOLY SPIRIT to the WIND. You cannot see the WIND but yet you can FEEL its presence. You can neither see it coming, nor can you tell where it will go once it has blown by you. It can come as a GUST, or it can remain INTENSE. It can be quite mild like a breeze, whereas you may barely feel it, or it can be OVERWHELMING to the point of your being SWEPT AWAY by it! Just as you haven't any control whatsoever over the WIND, neither do you have any control over the SPIRIT, the SPIRIT does, as HE DESIRES.

John 3:8 THE WIND BLOWETH WHERE IT LISTETH, AND THOU HEAREST THE SOUND THEREOF, BUT CANST NOT TELL WHENCE IT COMETH, AND WHITHER IT GOETH: SO IS EVERY ONE THAT IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT.

Everyone that RECEIVES BAPTISM will RECEIVE some measure of HOLY SPIRIT, with the AMOUNT varying amongst each INDIVIDUAL, and also varying depending on the EVENT. The FEELING of the PRESENCE of the HOLY SPIRIT and the INTENSITY of it will vary like the WIND. Sometimes it will be OVERWHELMING and sometimes it will be quite MILD; but in either case GOD'S PRESENCE will be KNOWN! And, regardless of the INTENSITY of the SPIRIT, a FEELING of PEACE and CALMNESS will ACCOMPANY it. This is why the HOLY SPIRIT is referred to as the COMFORTER, and also why JESUS TOLD HIS DISCIPLES, "PEACE BE UNTO YOU".

John 20:21 Then said JESUS to them again, PEACE BE UNTO YOU: AS MY FATHER HATH SENT ME, EVEN SO SEND I YOU.

John 20:22 And when HE had said this, HE BREATHED on them, and saith unto them, RECEIVE YE THE HOLY GHOST:

John 20:23 WHOSE SOEVER SINS YE REMIT, THEY ARE REMITTED UNTO THEM; AND WHOSE SOEVER SINS YE RETAIN, THEY ARE RETAINED.

This was the DISCIPLES BAPTISM! They that BELIEVED in JESUS and RECEIVED the WORD of GOD from HIM while HE yet walked AMONG THEM would now BENEFIT from their FAITH in JESUS by HIS BAPTISM. At this point in time in the SCRIPTURES of John's GOSPEL, JESUS had just BEEN RESURRECTED, AND NOW HE COULD BAPTIZE HIS DISCIPLES in the SPIRIT of GOD. This was something HE could not do prior to HIS RESURRECTION.

Many Churches tell their Congregations that they can perform this BAPTISM, but I can ASSURE YOU, they are LIARS, for they CANNOT! If JESUS CHRIST could not perform HIS BAPTISM on HIS DISCIPLES prior to HIM being in THE SPIRIT and while HE was still in the FLESH, then HOW can a simple man, do, that which JESUS CHRIST COULD NOT DO? Don't be MISLED by these Churches telling you that once they have baptized you that you will be SAVED, for I HAVE WARNED YOU OF IT!

THUS SAITH THE LORD THY GOD, THEM WHOM HAVE RECEIVED THIS FALSE BAPTISM, WILL ROT IN HELL, ALONG SIDE THEM, WHOM HAVE PERFORMED IT!

Revelation 18:4 And I heard another VOICE from HEAVEN, saying, COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, THAT YE BE NOT PARTAKERS OF HER SINS, AND THAT YE RECEIVE NOT OF HER PLAGUES.

HOLY SPIRIT COUNSELING

With HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM comes ANOINTING with the GIFTS of the HOLY SPIRIT, and also HOLY SPIRIT COUNSELING to CORRECT and COUNSEL human BEHAVIOR. This COUNSELING comes by way of THOUGHT PERFECTION and THOUGHT CONTROL GUIDED by the SOUL of the BAPTIZED INDIVIDUAL. Whereas everyone whom is not BAPTIZED, manifest their own thoughts by IMAGINATION and INFLUENCE by self-sustained knowledge, after BAPTISM; THOUGHTS are EVALUATED by the SOUL'S INTERPRETATION of the THOUGHTS based on GODLY KNOWLEDGE.

The UN-BAPTIZED PERSON uses the CONSCIOUS MIND to determine whether or not the thoughts of the MIND are to be played out. It does not evaluate the actions prior to playing them out; it simply analyzes the actions after they are taken. The CONSCIOUS MIND makes decisions based on thoughts, and thoughts are INFLUENCED by personal knowledge or by IMAGINATION driven fantasies. Therefore, the decision making process of the MIND can be FLAWED by a fantasy driven will, or by incorrect knowledge instilled within the MIND, both of which INFLUENCE THOUGHTS and DECISIONS. This is why on many occasions an INDIVIDUAL might say, "I can't believe I did that"? After doing something they then realize they should not have done. This would be a classic case of acting on a FLAWED THOUGHT and later paying the consequences for acting on the thought. Whereas the UN-BAPTIZED PERSON depends on the MIND to determine a course of actions; the BAPTIZED PERSON depends on the SOUL, to evaluate the actions, prior to them being taken; and the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT DIRECTS the ACTIONS based on the SOUL'S EVALUATION of the THOUGHT.

The SOUL does not determine a person's actions like the MIND does; it merely evaluates the actions to be taken, prior to the enactment of them. The SOUL relates all matters to TRUTH based on the WORD of GOD, and distinguishes between PROPER and IMPROPER THOUGHTS, and proper and improper actions. SCRIPTURE contained within the HOLY BIBLE is SCRIPTED into the SOUL, and the SOUL measures the THOUGHTS of the BAPTIZED PERSON against that SCRIPTURE. Whether the THOUGHTS are GOOD, or whether the thoughts are EVIL, every scenario possible by the thought process, is covered within the SCRIPTURES of the HOLY BIBLE.

Thoughts of a HUMAN BEING are generated at the CONSCIOUS LEVEL. Therefore it is PARAMOUNT that every BAPTIZED PERSON READ the HOLY BIBLE daily. When an INDIVIDUAL READS the BIBLE, they RECEIVE its MESSAGE both by SPIRIT and by CONSCIOUS MIND. Whereas the SOUL is FORMATTED and PROGRAMMED with GOD'S WORD, the CONSCIOUS MIND is not, and it needs to be influenced by GOD'S WORD. Once the WORD of GOD is instilled within the MIND, the KNOWLEDGE BASE of the MIND becomes FLAWLESS, and the INDIVIDUAL'S THOUGHTS BASED now on SOUND KNOWLEDGE is able to make RIGHTEOUS DECISIONS.

The MIND can be divided into two parts, the CONSCIOUS MIND and the SUBCONSCIOUS MIND. Whereas the CONSCIOUS MIND requires thought to react, the SUBCONSCIOUS MIND reacts solely on its programming and not on thought. It is the THOUGHT PROCESS of the MIND that introduces ERROR in the decision making process. The CONSCIOUS MIND is similar to the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT in as much as they are BOTH DECISION MAKERS for the INDIVIDUAL. The CONSCIOUS MIND makes the decisions prior to BAPTISM and the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT makes the DECISIONS after BAPTISM. Whereas the CONSCIOUS MIND can only relate to self-sustained knowledge for its decisions and a directed course of actions, the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT relies on the SOUL for its DIRECTION and RIGHTEOUSNESS of ACTIONS. And, whereas the MIND can make mistakes, the SOUL cannot make mistakes for it is PERFECT.

The SOUL can somewhat be compared to an INDIVIDUAL'S subconscious mind. The subconscious mind of a human being is preprogrammed at birth to routinely perform certain functions. The subconscious routinely makes the lungs inhale and exhale, the heart to beat at a rate consistent with proper blood pressure, and many other bodily functions to occur without error. All vital life necessities are preprogrammed in the subconscious mind freeing it from error by THOUGHT. The subconscious is even preprogrammed with many fail-safes such as to prevent an INDIVIDUAL from trying to breathe while being submerged in water. All functions of the subconscious mind are accomplished without the need of THOUGHT and are free from err caused by THOUGHT.

Much like the subconscious mind, the SOUL is PREPROGRAMMED to perform its FUNCTION without the need of THOUGHT or persuasion of any outside source. The SOUL'S FUNCTION is to MONITOR the THOUGHTS and BEHAVIOR of an INDIVIDUAL and measure them in accordance with the WORD of GOD for their RIGHTEOUSNESS. Whereas the subconscious mind does not determine what an INDIVIDUAL may or may not do; neither does the SOUL make that determination; it simply EVALUATES THOUGHTS and ACTIONS based on the WORD of GOD.

The SPIRIT of GOD CONTROLS after BAPTISM, that which the CONSCIOUS MIND controlled prior to BAPTISM. ALSO after BAPTISM, the SOUL is engaged in the DECISION MAKING PROCESS of the MIND, because the SPIRIT of GOD is now DRIVING the MIND rather than the MIND driving itself. The KNOWLEDGE necessary for SOUND DECISIONS and APPROPRIATE ACTIONS is now provided by the SOUL rather than the MIND alone, and the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT directs the MIND to adhere to the SOUL'S DIRECTED course of ACTION. This is HOLY SPIRIT COUNSELING.

INTERACTION of the SPIRIT with the mind

Immediately after BAPTISM, when the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT takes control of the PHYSICAL PERSON, the MIND of that PERSON does not give up its control without some form of resistance. This resistance can be in varying levels, from moderate contention to an all out fight with the SPIRIT. Initially the MIND will attempt to regain control by creating chaos for the PERSON in the form of producing bad dreams, or repetitious morbid thoughts, and will create every possible negative thought to challenge the FAITH given to the NEWLY BAPTIZED INDIVIDUAL. However, all of its attempts to regain control will be futile.

This is an internal battle that takes place in your mind and the battle is similar to that of ARMAGEDDON. The fight will be GOOD versus evil, and the contenders will be the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT versus the BEAST (the MIND of man). This is a fight that cannot be won by the MIND, nor can the SPIRIT lose it; However; there will be several rounds fought, with each and every round being WON by the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT, and all the while, the time between rounds increase; while the frequency of rounds DECREASE; as the MIND adjusts and eventually capitulates to the SPIRIT.

Eventually the MIND becomes overwhelmed with the TRUTH in the WORD of GOD, and gives into the SPIRIT, and the battle ceases. This battle usually takes place over a course of several months, and in some cases last for years. However, the brunt of the battle is waged in the first forty days and forty nights prior to the GREAT TRIBULATION, but then is reduced to only ten days during the GREAT TRIBULATION. The reduction in time during the GREAT TRIBULATION is due to each person fighting the battle at this time being UNBAPTIZED has to rely on their OWN faith, for they are void of any GOD GIVEN FAITH, and no one could succeed in battle for more than TEN DAYS.

This is the battle that JESUS had with Satan in the WILDERNESS that lasted for FORTY DAYS and FORTY NIGHTS: Matthew 4:1 Then was JESUS led up of the SPIRIT into the WILDERNESS to be TEMPTED of the Devil.

Matthew 4:2 And when HE had fasted FORTY DAYS and FORTY NIGHTS, HE was afterward an hungred.

Matthew 4:3 And when the TEMPTER came to HIM, he said, If thou be the SON of GOD, command that these stones be made bread.

Matthew 4:4 But HE answered and said, IT IS WRITTEN, MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.

As you can see from the SCRIPTURES, JESUS fought the Devil off with the WORD of GOD. The more often the NEWLY BAPTIZED PERSON READS the WORD of GOD, the quicker the Devil (the MIND) is DEFEATED and the BATTLE ENDS! Only the WORD of GOD can DEFEAT the Devil, and ONE'S indulgence in the WORD of GOD is KEY to a QUICK and DECISIVE VICTORY, Earlier it was said that in some cases PEOPLE could be stuck in the battle between the MIND and the SPIRIT for years. The prolonging of the BATTLE relates directly to that PERSON'S lacking in the WORD of GOD, and their being malnourished in SPIRIT, READ!

Revelation 2:10 FEAR NONE OF THOSE THINGS WHICH THOU SHALT SUFFER: BEHOLD, THE DEVIL SHALL CAST SOME OF YOU INTO PRISON, THAT YE MAY BE TRIED; AND YE SHALL HAVE TRIBULATION TEN DAYS: BE THOU FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH, AND I WILL GIVE THEE A CROWN OF LIFE.

CHANGES BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE HOLY SPIRIT

From the ONSET of BAPTISM changes take place in the LIFE of the BAPTIZED. The HOLY SPIRIT evaluates lifestyles and habits and prioritizes them for PURGING. Many of the people whom acquainted themselves with the NEWBORN PERSON prior to their BAPTISM will be quickly removed from their lives. However, they will not miss the people taken out of their lives. Regardless of relationships between the BAPTIZED and the individuals whom are PURGED, the PURGING will be swift and DELIBERATE. In some cases it will be a SEPARATION of spouses, family members, or acquaintances (friends), it can even be children whom are removed during the PURGING. Anyone who poses a THREAT to the BAPTIZED PERSON'S RELATIONSHIP with GOD will be PURGED!

The HOLY SPIRIT will also PURGE habits that are detrimental to the BAPTIZED PERSON'S well being. These can include social events, sports and sporting activities, smoking, drinking, gambling, theater, or anything found to be DETRIMENTAL to the NEWBORN'S SPIRITUAL HEALTH. The things PURGED will vary amongst INDIVIDUALS. Some PEOPLE HE will allow to smoke or to drink, while for others HE will not allow it; there isn't any specific set of rules that apply to all. This is but another reason why YOU should not JUDGE another PERSON by their habits! You may see another's habits as being disgusting, while all the while GOD SEES THOSE THINGS YOU DO, AS BEING DISGUSTING!

Chapter Ten
Lucifer, Son of the Morning

Isaiah 14:10 All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? Art thou become like unto us?

Isaiah 14:11 Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee.

Isaiah 14:12 How art thou FALLEN from HEAVEN, O Lu'-cifer, Son of the Morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

These SCRIPTURES depict the FALL of Lucifer from HEAVEN; but why is Lucifer referred to by SCRIPTURE as the, "Son of the Morning"? What does this title given to Lucifer mean? The answers to these questions and more regarding Lucifer and his tactics to DECEIVE will be the topic of discussion for this Chapter. YOU will SEE that the title given to Lucifer is really quite fitting to him, and his mode of operation.

AWAKENING

If you were to analyze what you go through every MORNING after awakening from your night's sleep, what would be the sequence of events that take place? The analysis would more than likely reveal the following: Immediately after awakening you would try to comprehend where you were, such as; I am in my bed, in my house, in the city where I live, and so forth, thus determining your present location. This is called "getting your bearings". This is something that the CONSCIOUS MIND must understand prior to performing any function after being awakened from an UNCONSCIOUS STATE. The MIND must first establish a POINT of REFERENCE before it can determine a reality. Therefore it must first LOCATE itself before it can set a TIMELINE; that which is the very next event to take place in the AWAKENING PROCESS. The TIMELINE is key for the THOUGHT PROCESS to begin.

Once the BEARING is determined and the TIMELINE established, then, and only then can the CONSCIOUS MIND be free to MANIFEST THOUGHTS. Generally the thoughts that will be manifested first, will establish that day's routine relating the routine to some sort of time scheduling that is retained in the memory of the mind. The necessity of the TIMELINE is why your first visualization will be to observe and mentally document what TIME it is, after AWAKENING and finding your bearing. Therefore, the CONSCIOUS MIND bases its REALITY on PHYSICAL LOCATIONS and TIME, and cannot establish a reality without these two essential reference points.

The THOUGHTS that are produced first come from the memory of the CONSCIOUS MIND; the MIND will ask itself first; "Is there something that was needed to be REMEMBERED to be included in this day's scheduling"? These thoughts are usually implanted in the MIND prior to SLEEP, and done so in a prioritized manner, for recall the next day. These are called "PREPLANNED THOUGHTS", and the MIND will not manifest any other thoughts until the "PREPLANNED THOUGHTS" are searched out and analyzed by the MIND. PREPLANNED THOUGHTS are not only thoughts relating to the TIMELINE and scheduling, they can also consist of troubling thoughts that weighted heavily upon the MIND prior to its interval of SLEEP. This is the MIND'S way of connecting the new day to the previous day that had been disconnected by the interval of sleep. The MIND tries to keep a continuous TIMELINE, and it does this by reconnecting its states of CONSCIOUSNESS after being disconnected by sleep intervals.

When recalling thoughts from its memory, troubling NEGATIVE THOUGHTS will be given a TOP PRIORITY by the MIND. Any PREPLANNED SCHEDULING THOUGHTS that are perceived by the MIND as being POSITIVE will be temporarily set aside. In other words, the MIND prefers to remember the troubling things of the previous day, FIRST, and any other THOUGHTS put into the MEMORY that are not perceived to be NEGATIVE will be put onto the back burner until the NEGATIVE THOUGHTS are addressed. The MIND considers NEGATIVE THOUGHTS to be more important than positive thoughts.

A good example of this phenomenon would be a planned event such as a dreaded dental appointment for a Root Canal, scheduled to take place in the late afternoon, being thought of by the MIND prior to anything else. This will be given a higher priority though there may be other items of more importance needing to be addressed prior to the Root Canal appointment. In this case the MIND preferred to think of a NEGATIVE EVENT FIRST, prior to anything else.

Another such example of this phenomenon may be in your going to sleep on a SOUR NOTE, such as having an unresolved argument with a family member or friend that wrecked the prior day. You would FIND that after AWAKENING, the following morning, once your BEARING was determined and TIMELINE established, the very first thing to be recalled from the CONSCIOUS MEMORY would be that unresolved argument.

Is this because the issue remained unresolved, without closure, or is it because the MIND preferred to recall negative memories over and above positive ones? Let's change the scenario a bit and look from a different perspective: What if the issues were resolved on the prior day, but the resolution of the issues was not favorable, nor beneficial to you? Wouldn't that NEGATIVE THOUGHT still be your FIRST THOUGHT? Wouldn't you want to dwell on it for a while, even though the issue was closed?

Questions?

What is it that causes the HUMAN MIND to prefer NEGATIVE THOUGHTS to POSITIVE ones? Why is the phenomena more prevalent in the MORNING, when just AWAKENING, than at any other time of the day? Is the HUMAN MIND predominantly pessimistic, or are there outside influences causing the MIND to react in this way? And, if there are OUTSIDE INFLUENCES causing the MIND to prefer NEGATIVE THOUGHTS, is the MIND more vulnerable to these INFLUENCES just after a period of sleep?

Can these NEGATIVE THOUGHTS cause the person having them to needlessly WORRY? And, when the outcome for the upcoming day appears UNCERTAIN due to impending negative issues created by the MIND, will the MIND then needlessly instill DOUBT as to the entire day's outlook, and perceive the entire day to be NEGATIVE? Can WORRY and DOUBT turn FEELINGS into FEAR, and can FEAR produce irrational THINKING and cause ERRATIC BEHAVIOR?

Answers

The MIND does not DOUBT negative thoughts, and it perceives POSITIVE THOUGHTS to be less important than NEGATIVE ones. The MIND willingly ACCEPTS detrimental thoughts, always believing them to be correct; but it QUESTIONS POSITIVE THOUGHTS, instilling DOUBT and assuming they are wishful thinking. Furthermore, the MIND gives the NEGATIVE THOUGHTS its highest priority when recalling thoughts of importance from the CONSCIOUS MEMORY. It will always pull out the NEGATIVE THOUGHTS first.

The MIND is more likely to believe an implanted or self-induced negative thought in the morning after a period of sleep, by convincing itself that the clarity of the thought is more likely to be correct after a period of rest. Negative thoughts have a tendency to weaken through the course of the day, because the MIND tires and its ability to reinforce NEGATIVE THOUGHTS decline as the day goes on. Also, during an active day, the MIND is bombarded with a wide variety of thoughts, and the NEGATIVE THOUGHTS become buried within the barrage of that day's thoughts. However, the NEGATIVE THOUGHTS seem to resurface again the following MORNING even though they were put out of MIND the prior day. This resurfacing further promotes the MIND'S belief that the thought requires its immediate attention.

The HUMAN MIND is PESSIMISTIC by nature, and can only become OPTIMISTIC synthetically. This means the MIND must artificially induce itself with POSITIVE THOUGHTS, and this can only be done during full consciousness of the MIND, to overcome the MIND'S PESSIMISTIC NATURE. However, once the MIND AWAKENS after a period of sleep, prior to full consciousness, its natural state of PESSIMISM resurfaces and will always prevail over artificially induced optimism! Therefore, the MIND is MOST SUSCEPTIBLE to yield to EXTERNAL or internal NEGATIVE THOUGHTS just prior to full consciousness after a period of sleep.

At times, self-manifested NEGATIVE THOUGHTS can needlessly create WORRY, GRIEF, DOUBT, or FEAR, but normally these feelings are not selfgenerated. When they are self-generated by the MIND, the intensity levels of the feelings are somewhat annoying, but at low levels. This is because the MIND in the morning prefers to analyze THOUGHTS rather than to initiate FEELINGS as a result of the THOUGHTS. The MIND is less apt to have intense NEGATIVE FEELINGS in the MORNING on its own. Therefore, when experiencing intense NEGATIVE FEELINGS in the morning, it is MOST LIKELY that an OUTSIDE INFLUENCE has implanted those FEELINGS in your MIND. The MIND is most often told by an OUTSIDE SOURCE that it should GRIEVE, or DOUBT, or WORRY or to FEAR for something. However the OUTSIDE SOURCE does not make known what that "SOMETHING" is. The cause of the FEELINGS remains unknown to the MIND, so it then searches within its MEMORY for an explanation and cause for the FEELINGS; and oddly enough, it will find REASONING to justify the FEELINGS!

The Devil ATTACKS

The Devil, Lucifer, uses your own MIND as a WEAPON against you, and he does this most effectively in the MORNING! This is why Lucifer, is called by SCRIPTURE, " the Son of the Morning". The Devil can attack anytime during the course of a day, however, he knows that you are most VULNERABLE in the morning hours after a night's sleep, and prior to full consciousness.

Lucifer can READ the MINDS of the UN-BAPTIZED, and he has total access to your MIND through your own THOUGHTS. He can implant NEGATIVE FEELINGS, such as; WORRY, GRIEF, DOUBT, and instill FEAR without reason, and then let your own PESSIMISTIC NATURE, create the REASON for the FEELING! He then IMPLANTS faulty methods of resolution to alleviate the NEGATIVE FEELINGS he has given you, and in DESPERATION you will more than likely carryout his imposed suggestions. If you do not accept his methods of resolution, he will cause those same NEGATIVE FEELINGS to recycle, over and over again and again. He will continue this recycling until the FEELINGS become so intense and unbearable you will do most anything that he suggest.

If you were to search out at what point in the day an INDIVIDUAL had decided to commit some act of violence or crime, you would find in nearly all cases, the perpetrators had decided to commit the crime shortly after awakening from a period of sleep. And, even though the crime may not have been carried out until sometime later in the day or that evening, the notion to commit the crime came to the perpetrator shortly after they had awakened from their sleep.

CLEARING Negative Thoughts

One way to clear negative thoughts from the MIND is by simply refusing to believe them. However, some negative thoughts have merit and deserve some attention paid to resolving them. If the NEGATIVE THOUGHT can be RESOLVED, it will then go out of the Conscious MIND. The best way to CLEAR NEGATIVE THOUGHTS from the MIND is by INDULGING in the WORD of GOD. The READING of the HOLY BIBLE will help in the RESOLUTION of a NEGATIVE THOUGHT by providing a RIGHTEOUS SOLUTION to the THOUGHT. The BIBLE also builds FAITH by TRUTH and will fill your MIND with TRUTHFUL POSITIVE THOUGHTS, and these POSITIVE THOUGHTS are not synthetic as are self-induced positive thoughts. The POSITIVE THOUGHTS taught by the WORD of GOD are based on ABSOLUTE TRUTHS, and the MIND will RETAIN those TRUTHS and will not set them aside for negative thoughts. The MIND will RETAIN all known TRUTHS. Also, the MIND will not be skeptical regarding the accuracy of BIBLE INDUCED THOUGHTS, as it is regarding self-induced positive thoughts; and if significant amounts of the RIGHTEOUS THOUGHTS provided by GOD'S WORD are PUT INTO the MIND, negative thoughts will decline and eventually be nonexistent.

AWAKENING of the SPIRIT

Unlike the human mind (the Earth Given Spirit of Man) that requires daily sleep, the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT requires no sleep, only REST! The AWAKENING of the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT occurs only ONCE at the time of BAPTISM, and it REMAINS ALERT and AWAKE at all times after its initial AWAKENING. After BAPTISM, the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT takes CONTROL over the Earth Given Spirit (the Mind), and the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT determines what if any actions should be taken regarding THOUGHT. The Conscious Mind, after BAPTISM, can no longer determine a course of actions to be taken by the Physical Person; it can merely act as a spectator, at times expressing an opinion; but not having any authority to impose its opinions!

Whereas the Conscious Mind reacted to THOUGHT, the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT reacts only after the SOUL has EVALUATED the THOUGHT for its RIGHTEOUSNESS. Therefore, any NEGATIVE THOUGHTS, whether they are self-induced or IMPLANTED by an external source are EVALUATED by the SOUL, and if found to be EVIL, the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT is INFORMED by the SOUL as such, and the THOUGHTS are IGNORED. Error or corruption are nonexistent in the SOUL'S EVALUATION of the thought, nor is there disagreement between the SOUL and the GOD GIVEN SPIRIT as to the disposition of the thought. The TWO work in HARMONY.

Chapter Eleven
Fantasies

A FANTASY is a product of the imagination, and the IMAGINATION is a product of the MIND. All Human Beings have fantasies of varying sorts, from common thoughts that build visual images in the mind, to BIZARRE situations that are graphic and played-out in the MIND. Fantasies of the MIND in themselves are not SINFUL, providing they are not sinfully enacted upon and are not inclusive of other people to participate in the sinful act.

Prior to BAPTISM, a Person's behavior is THOUGHT DRIVEN; therefore it can be construed that all actions taken based on THOUGHT are in some way enacted FANTASIES. The MIND produces a thought and the Physical Person enacts the thought. Therefore by definition alone, prior to BAPTISM, a Person's life consists of nothing more than a series of enacted FANTASIES. The CONSCIOUS MIND suggests an action based on THOUGHT and the Physical Person then enacts the THOUGHT. The problem with this mode of operation is that the THOUGHT being acted on may or may not be an EVIL THOUGHT; and how would one determine whether the THOUGHT is GOOD or EVIL.

GOD gave mankind a set of LAWS prior to HIS offering them BAPTISM. These LAWS allow an INDIVIDUAL the ability to JUDGE a THOUGHT prior to enacting it. Thus if the THOUGHT is justly EVALUATED in accordance with the LAW, and found to be EVIL, then the one judging, which in this case is the MIND, cancels the THOUGHT based on it being against the LAW. This scenario of the MIND judging the MIND'S THOUGHTS can be compared to having the fox look after the chicken coop, or like having a person judge their own work! This is risky business; because, if the MIND is bound and determined to enact a THOUGHT, then it will justify its actions to itself, for it is its own judge; whether its actions violates the LAW or not.

GOD DESTROYED the FIRST WORLD for the people doing whatsoever came into their IMAGINATIONS. Whatever EVIL THOUGHTS they had, they enacted them! However, HE allowed the same set of circumstances, of the MIND looking after the MIND to exist in the NEW WORLD of NOAH as it had been in the FIRST WORLD. Only GOD gave mankind a SECOND CHANCE at LIFE, and the opportunity to do a better job of self-judgment in the NEW WORLD. A SECOND chance to improve on what they had done wrong in the previous world, and the opportunity to continue to manage their own BEHAVIOR; that of which ran amuck in the OLD WORLD.

Genesis 6:5 And GOD saw that the WICKEDNESS of MAN was great in the earth, and that every IMAGINATION of the THOUGHTS of his heart was only EVIL continually.

Genesis 6:6 And it repented THE LORD that HE had made MAN on the earth, and it grieved HIM at HIS HEART.

Genesis 6:7 And THE LORD said, I WILL DESTROY MAN WHOM I HAVE CREATED FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH; BOTH MAN, AND BEAST, AND THE CREEPING THING, AND THE FOWLS OF THE AIR; FOR IT REPENTETH ME THAT I HAVE MADE THEM.

When NOAH landed in the NEW WORLD, GOD gave NOAH and HIS three Sons a set of very simple LAWS to follow; so they might self-govern their own actions in a more righteous manner; and not make the same mistakes as did the people in the OLD WORLD. They were told not to eat the blood of any animal, nor were they to shed MAN'S BLOOD.

Genesis 9:4 BUT FLESH WITH THE LIFE THEREOF, WHICH IS THE BLOOD THEREOF, SHALL YE NOT EAT.

Genesis 9:5 AND SURELY YOUR BLOOD OF YOUR LIVES WILL I REQUIRE; AT THE HAND OF EVERY BEAST WILL I REQUIRE IT, AND AT THE HAND OF MAN; AT THE HAND OF EVERY MAN'S BROTHER WILL I REQUIRE THE LIFE OF MAN.

Genesis 9:6 WHOSO SHEDDETH MAN'S BLOOD, BY MAN SHALL HIS BLOOD BE SHED: FOR IN THE IMAGE OF GOD MADE HE MAN.

GOD gave with these LAWS, a PENALTY for VIOLATING them; any man that shed the BLOOD of another, they would pay the price with their LIFE for the LIFE they had taken. These were a simple set of RULES laid down by GOD, and HE did this to ESTABLISH the LAW regarding ONE'S BEHAVIOR. In doing this, GOD allowed Mankind to JUDGE Mankind, thus taking away the authority of the MIND to JUDGE ITSELF for these TWO SIMPLE LAWS. This was done to HOLD Mankind accountable for his or her actions and does not allow the MIND the ability to PARDON its own actions.

Being Held Accountable for YOUR ACTIONS

Fantasies when not enacted upon are not sins, except in one circumstance, and only in this one circumstance can a FANTASY in itself be a SIN! I will give the one circumstance in SCRIPTURE, for it is most CLEAR.

Matthew 5:27 YE HAVE HEARD THAT IT WAS SAID BY THEM OF OLD TIME, THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY:

Matthew 5:28 BUT I SAY UNTO YOU, THAT WHOSOEVER LOOKETH ON A WOMAN TO LUST AFTER HER HATH COMMITTED ADULTERY WITH HER ALREADY IN HIS HEART.

What the SCRIPTURES are saying is; if a person looks upon another person's spouse, whether it is a man, or a woman, and wishes that they had that other person's spouse for themselves; in their merely thinking about it, they have committed the ACT of ADULTERY. This does not include a person's thoughts or fantasies to want to have sex with that other person's spouse, providing the FANTASY remains only a FANTASY, and is not enacted. This LAW stems from GOD'S TENTH COMMANDMENT, stating that THOU SHALT NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S WIFE. To COVET means to enviously desire the SPOUSE of another, for any reason other than for SEX. The exception of sex is explained in the following SCRIPTURES:

Matthew 19:8 HE saith unto them, MOSES BECAUSE OF THE HARDNESS OF YOUR HEARTS SUFFERED YOU TO PUT AWAY YOUR WIVES: BUT FROM THE BEGINNING IT WAS NOT SO.

Matthew 19:9 AND I SAY UNTO YOU, WHOSOEVER SHALL PUT AWAY HIS WIFE, EXCEPT IT BE FOR FORNICATION, AND SHALL MARRY ANOTHER, COMMITTETH ADULTERY: AND WHOSO MARRIETH HER WHICH IS PUT AWAY DOTH COMMIT ADULTERY.

Before WE take you further, WE must DEFINE what construes an ACTION. An ACTION is something that is done in a PHYSICAL sense to produce an effect. This also is INCLUSIVE of WORDS, for WORDS are also actions. For instance, if you were to FANTASIZE of having sex with a person whom is married, and were to express that fantasy to another, even a third party, then the ACT of ADULTERY, in the EYES of GOD has been committed. Therefore GOD holds EVERYONE accountable for either their WORDS or their ACTIONS.

Matthew 12:36 BUT I SAY UNTO YOU, THAT EVERY IDLE WORD THAT MEN SHALL SPEAK, THEY SHALL GIVE ACCOUNT THEREOF IN THE DAY OF JUDGMENT.

Matthew 12:37 FOR BY THY WORDS THOU SHALT BE JUSTIFIED, AND BY THY WORDS THOU SHALT BE CONDEMNED.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the CONCLUSION of the whole matter: FEAR GOD, and KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS: for this is the WHOLE DUTY of MAN.

Ecclesiastes 12:14 For GOD shall bring every WORK into JUDGMENT, with every SECRET thing, whether it be GOOD, or whether it be EVIL.

FANTASIES of the BAPTIZED PERSON

The BAPTIZED PERSON also has FANTASIES! However, the INTERVENTION of the SOUL and the COUNSELING of the HOLY SPIRIT negate any actions taken regarding EVIL THOUGHTS. Whereas the UN-BAPTIZED PERSON depends on the LAW to measure the righteousness of its actions, and only by OBEDIENCE to the LAW remains in COVENANT with GOD, the BAPTIZED PERSON stays within the LAW by FAITH. This means that the BAPTIZED PERSON is no longer ruled by the MIND, but is GUIDED by the FAITH provided by the HOLY SPIRIT. The HOLY SPIRIT is GOD, and GOD WILL NOT SIN AGAINST HIMSELF. Therefore BREACH of COVENANT and the BREAKING of GOD'S LAWS and COMMANDMENTS cannot happen on GOD'S WATCH!

The BAPTIZED PERSON still has to contend with his or her own MIND, and the FANTASIES created by it, however; by HOLY SPIRIT GUIDANCE, they need not fear ever being out of COVENANT with GOD. The BAPTIZED will not ACT on an EVIL THOUGHT, even though they may still have them. JESUS refers the actions of the BAPTIZED to being the same as the FRUIT which a tree may produce. A GOOD TREE bears GOOD FRUIT, whereas an EVIL TREE bears CORRUPT FRUIT!

Matthew 12:33 EITHER MAKE THE TREE GOOD, AND HIS FRUIT GOOD; OR ELSE MAKE THE TREE CORRUPT, AND HIS FRUIT CORRUPT: FOR THE TREE IS KNOWN BY HIS FRUIT.

FANTASIES, GOOD or EVIL?

Not all FANTASIES are EVIL! ONE can have a FANTASY about being in a good place, such as HEAVEN, or basking on a beautiful beach or viewing a picturesque landscape, or being with an attractive person. Any FANTASY whereas no harm is done to any person or thing in the FANTASY would not be considered an evil fantasy. Fantasies are merely daydreams of sorts, and methods in which a PERSON may temporarily overcome the hardships of the world. Even if only for short periods of time, innocent FANTASIES are healthy for both the SPIRIT and the MIND.

However, any FANTASY in which another person or thing is VIOLATED, or where harm of any sorts is intended to anybody or anything, whether it is directed at an individual, or at an animal, or even to property, this type of FANTASY is EVIL! Evil fantasies can come from either within one's own mind, or from an outside SOURCE. Regardless of what that outside SOURCE may be, it comes from the Devil. Evil fantasies can come from a Devil implanted thought, or it can come from a variety of other outside sources, all of which are manipulated and controlled by the Devil or one of his Advocates. Prolonged exposure to these outside sources will cause the UN-BAPTIZED INDIVIDUAL to eventually act on the EVIL FANTASY; even though that INDIVIDUAL believes he or she can control the urges brought on by the FANTASY.

Chapter Twelve
BREACH

The WORD, BREACH, is defined as the BREAKING of the LAW, OBLIGATION, or STANDARD. The LAW; represents GOD'S LAW; the OBLIGATION, represents GOD'S COVENANT and GOD'S PROMISE; and the STANDARD, represents, the SYMBOL of the COVENANT, its APPLICABILITY and PERTINENCE.

Originally, GOD made HIS COVENANT with NOAH, and that COVENANT was to continue throughout the generations. The FIRST COVENANT made between GOD and NOAH was GOD'S PROMISE to never DESTROY the EARTH again by flooding it with water; and as long as there continued to be RAINBOWS in the sky for a SIGN of the COVENANT, that COVENANT would remain bona fide. In this case, a LAW was not given, and the OBLIGATION was, GOD'S PROMISE to never again DESTROY the EARTH with WATERS from a FLOOD; and the STANDARD was the RAINBOW in the clouds.

Genesis 9:11 AND I WILL ESTABLISH MY COVENANT WITH YOU; NEITHER SHALL ALL FLESH BE CUT OFF ANY MORE BY THE WATERS OF A FLOOD; NEITHER SHALL THERE ANY MORE BE A FLOOD TO DESTROY THE EARTH.

Genesis 9:12 And GOD said, THIS IS THE TOKEN OF THE COVENANT WHICH I MAKE BETWEEN ME AND YOU AND EVERY LIVING CREATURE THAT IS WITH YOU, FOR PERPETUAL GENERATIONS:

Genesis 9:13 I DO SET MY BOW IN THE CLOUD, AND IT SHALL BE FOR A TOKEN OF A COVENANT BETWEEN ME AND THE EARTH.

Genesis 9:14 AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS, WHEN I BRING A CLOUD OVER THE EARTH, THAT THE BOW SHALL BE SEEN IN THE CLOUD:

Genesis 9:15 AND I WILL REMEMBER MY COVENANT, WHICH IS BETWEEN ME AND YOU AND EVERY LIVING CREATURE OF ALL FLESH; AND THE WATERS SHALL NO MORE BECOME A FLOOD TO DESTROY ALL FLESH.

Genesis 9:16 AND THE BOW SHALL BE IN THE CLOUD; AND I WILL LOOK UPON IT, THAT I MAY REMEMBER THE EVERLASTING COVENANT BETWEEN GOD AND EVERY LIVING CREATURE OF ALL FLESH THAT IS UPON THE EARTH.

Genesis 9:17 And GOD said unto NOAH, THIS IS THE TOKEN OF THE COVENANT, WHICH I HAVE ESTABLISHED BETWEEN ME AND ALL FLESH THAT IS UPON THE EARTH.

GOD'S SECOND COVENANT was made with ABRAM. Son of Te'-rah, however; unlike GOD'S FIRST COVENANT with NOAH, this COVENANT consisted of LAWS and PROMISES. The LAW required ABRAM to WALK BEFORE THE LORD and for ABRAM to be PERFECT in his BEHAVIOR. The LAW also required that ABRAM be called ABRAHAM thereafter. Also, all of the MALE CHILDREN through ABRAHAM'S LINEAGE and those within his household, whether they were servants or not be CIRCUMCISED; and, ALL that were born within his household be CIRCUMCISED on the EIGHTH DAY after their birth, whether or not they were of ABRAHAM'S kinship, free or bond. It was also required that ABRAHAM, his household, and all of his generations after him, RECOGNIZE the ALMIGHTY GOD of ABRAHAM as being the ONE and only TRUE GOD, and to SERVE GOD as ABRAHAM would serve, and that they were to CIRCUMCISE the flesh of their foreskins.

The OBLIGATION of the COVENANT was that GOD was going to give ABRAHAM and ABRAHAM'S succeeding generations ALL of the LAND of CANAAN, and that ABRAHAM was going to be the FATHER of many NATIONS and Kings. But ABRAHAM hadn't any children with SARAH. So GOD gave ABRAHAM a SON with his wife SARAH, whom GOD named ISAAC. A SON that ABRAHAM FATHERED at the AGE of ONE HUNDRED YEARS and SARAH DELIVERED at the age of NINETY YEARS. It was also required that if they were to REMAIN in COVENANT with GOD, all the males must CIRCUMCISE the flesh of their foreskins, and their CIRCUMCISION would act as a TOKEN of being in COVENANT with GOD. The CIRCUMCISION was the STANDARD.

The APPLICABILITY and PERTINENCE of the COVENANT pertained to ABRAHAM, and ABRAHAM'S GENERATIONS after him; later to be called by SCRIPTURE, ISRAEL.

Genesis 17:1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, The LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I AM THE ALMIGHTY GOD; WALK BEFORE ME, AND BE THOU PERFECT.

Genesis 17:2 AND I WILL MAKE MY COVENANT BETWEEN ME AND THEE, AND WILL MULTIPLY THEE EXCEEDINGLY.

Genesis 17:3 And Abram fell on his face: and GOD talked with him, saying,

Genesis 17:4 AS FOR ME, BEHOLD, MY COVENANT IS WITH THEE, AND THOU SHALT BE A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS.

Genesis 17:5 NEITHER SHALL THY NAME ANY MORE BE CALLED ABRAM, BUT THY NAME SHALL BE ABRAHAM; FOR A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS HAVE I MADE THEE.

Genesis 17:6 AND I WILL MAKE THEE EXCEEDING FRUITFUL, AND I WILL MAKE NATIONS OF THEE, AND KINGS SHALL COME OUT OF THEE.

Genesis 17:7 AND I WILL ESTABLISH MY COVENANT BETWEEN ME AND THEE AND THY SEED AFTER THEE IN THEIR GENERATIONS FOR AN EVERLASTING COVENANT, TO BE A GOD UNTO THEE, AND TO THY SEED AFTER THEE.

Genesis 17:8 AND I WILL GIVE UNTO THEE, AND TO THY SEED AFTER THEE, THE LAND WHEREIN THOU ART A STRANGER, ALL THE LAND OF CANAAN, FOR AN EVERLASTING POSSESSION; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD.

Genesis 17:9 And GOD said unto ABRAHAM, THOU SHALT KEEP MY COVENANT THEREFORE, THOU, AND THY SEED AFTER THEE IN THEIR GENERATIONS.

Genesis 17:10 THIS IS MY COVENANT, WHICH YE SHALL KEEP, BETWEEN ME AND YOU AND THY SEED AFTER THEE; EVERY MAN CHILD AMONG YOU SHALL BE CIRCUMCISED.

Genesis 17:11 AND YE SHALL CIRCUMCISE THE FLESH OF YOUR FORESKIN; AND IT SHALL BE A TOKEN OF THE COVENANT BETWIXT ME AND YOU.

Genesis 17:12 AND HE THAT IS EIGHT DAYS OLD SHALL BE CIRCUMCISED AMONG YOU, EVERY MAN CHILD IN YOUR GENERATIONS, HE THAT IS BORN IN THE HOUSE, OR BOUGHT WITH MONEY OF ANY STRANGER, WHICH IS NOT OF THY SEED.

Genesis 17:13 HE THAT IS BORN IN THY HOUSE, AND HE THAT IS BOUGHT WITH THY MONEY, MUST NEEDS BE CIRCUMCISED: AND MY COVENANT SHALL BE IN YOUR FLESH FOR AN EVERLASTING COVENANT.

Genesis 17:14 AND THE UNCIRCUMCISED MAN CHILD WHOSE FLESH OF HIS FORESKIN IS NOT CIRCUMCISED, THAT SOUL SHALL BE CUT OFF FROM HIS PEOPLE; HE HATH BROKEN MY COVENANT.

GOD'S SECOND COVENANT with MANKIND, HIS COVENANT with ABRAHAM, was a COVENANT of FLESH as the SCRIPTURE so states. This COVENANT is referred to presently as being the OLD COVENANT, a COVENANT of FLESH being GOVERNED by LAW.

At the time of MOSES, after GOD FREED the people of ISRAEL from their BONDAGE in Egypt, HE expanded their LAWS with GOD'S TEN COMMANDMENTS, and also provided ISRAEL with laws, statutes, and precepts, to govern their MORAL BEHAVIOR; and gave them RULES regarding how they were to conduct themselves while in HIS PRESENCE.

Then through the many GENERATIONS of ISRAEL, there was a BREACH of COVENANT and FAILURE in OBEYING GOD'S LAWS, STATUTES, and PRECEPTS. As a result of their continual BREACH, GOD BROKE HIS COVENANT with ISRAEL. GOD then MADE a NEW COVENANT; not a COVENANT of FLESH being GOVERNED by LAW, as was the OLD COVENANT; but rather a COVENANT of SPIRIT, being GOVERNED by FAITH. The NEW COVENANT no longer pertained to a nation called by the name of Israel; the NEW COVENANT PERTAINED to a PEOPLE whom LOVE and SERVE GOD, both in SPIRIT and in FLESH, and GOD calls these PEOPLE, HIS PEOPLE, ISRAEL.

Zechariah 11:10 AND I TOOK MY STAFF, EVEN BEAUTY, AND CUT IT ASUNDER, THAT I MIGHT BREAK MY COVENANT WHICH I HAD MADE WITH ALL THE PEOPLE.

Zechariah 11:11 AND IT WAS BROKEN IN THAT DAY: AND SO THE POOR OF THE FLOCK THAT WAITED UPON ME KNEW THAT IT WAS THE WORD of THE LORD.

The NEW COVENANT

The NEW COVENANT is quite different than the OLD COVENANT. In the NEW COVENANT GOD PROVIDES HIS own SACRIFICE for the FORGIVENESS of SIN, that which HE PAID for HIMSELF. The PRICE PAID for the SACRIFICE was THIRTY PIECES of SILVER. This represents the THIRTY PIECES of SILVER that was given by the Pharisees to Judas Iscariot as payment, for his BETRAYAL of JESUS CHRIST. The money given to Judas by the Pharisees was taken out of THE LORD'S TREASURY, thus, that money BELONGED to GOD.

Zechariah 11:12 AND I SAID UNTO THEM, IF YE THINK GOOD, GIVE ME MY PRICE; AND IF NOT, FORBEAR. SO THEY WEIGHED FOR MY PRICE THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER.

Once Judas Iscariot had REALIZED what he had done, in his BETRAYAL of JESUS, he tried to give the THIRTY PIECES of SILVER back to the Pharisees, but they refused it, because they said that the money was BLOOD MONEY and they couldn't put it back into THE LORD'S TREASURY. So Judas threw the THIRTY PIECES of SILVER onto the floor in the TEMPLE where the Pharisees were, and they used that money to buy a parcel of land that was to be used as burial grounds for strangers. That parcel of land was called, the POTTER'S FIELD. The MONEY was never put back into THE LORD'S TREASURY, therefore the SACRIFICE of the LAMB of GOD, was BOUGHT, and PAID for, by GOD.

Zechariah 11:13 And THE LORD said unto me, CAST IT UNTO THE POTTER: A GOODLY PRICE THAT I WAS PRISED AT OF THEM. And I took the THIRTY PIECES of SILVER, and cast them to the POTTER in the HOUSE of THE LORD.

Matthew 27:3 Then Judas, which had betrayed HIM, when he saw that he was CONDEMNED, repented himself, and brought again the THIRTY PIECES of SILVER to the chief priests and elders,

Matthew 27:4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have BETRAYED the INNOCENT BLOOD. And they said, What is that to us? See thou to that.

Matthew 27:5 And he cast down the PIECES of SILVER in the TEMPLE, and departed, and went and HANGED himself.

Matthew 27:6 And the chief priests took the SILVER PIECES, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the TREASURY, because it is the PRICE of BLOOD.

Matthew 27:7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the POTTER'S FIELD, to bury strangers in.
