The Littlest Shepherd

There was once a little girl named Anne and all her life she felt different from all the other people around her. While she was only eight years old, she would walk down the busy streets of the city she lived near and peek in through the windows, her little hands leaving prints as she pressed her nose to the glass. The people inside never noticed her. They were always too busy talking amongst themselves, drinking, eating or spending money on designer clothes, jewelry and cars to notice the small girl with dirty blonde hair and green eyes.

Anne's family never noticed her very much either unless she’d done something she wasn’t supposed to. When she was around they were always to busy to ask her what went on inside her mind. Other things seemed more important. Her older brother played video games while his bike rusted away in their garage. Her older sister talked on her cell phone and went out on dates with boys. Her mother was single and too busy with her career to pay much attention to Anne or her other children, so mostly they fended for themselves. Anne never knew her father and when she asked about him, she was told he went away.

Anne's family attended church irregularly and it was there that she'd heard about her father and his son Jesus. Anne always wondered why she'd never met her brother…the one named Jesus. It wasn’t until one Easter Sunday that she found out he'd been nailed to a wooden cross and had died a horrible death. She cried quietly in the back seat of their mini van the whole ride home. Nobody noticed her tears.

One day, Anne decided she would look for her father. She packed her pink backpack with the belongings most important to her and left home, planning to stay away quite a while. Nobody heard the sound of the door click closed or her footsteps down the front walkway

She was halfway into the big city when from an alley she heard someone say "Anne..." She stopped and looked around, seeing no one there. Taking two more steps forward she heard it again. "Anne..." And again she stopped and looked around. This time she saw a light shining brightly at the very end of the alley. Slowly she walked towards it and as she got closer the light got much brighter, so much so that she had to shield her eyes with her hand above her brow. "Hello?" She asked in a small, quivering voice.

"Do not be afraid, Anne."

"How do you know my name?" She asked, squinting.

"Because I'm your father." said the voice. It was a man's voice. He sounded very kind to Anne and she was no longer afraid.

"You're my father?" Her brown eyes widened.

"Yes, Anne. And I love you very much." came the voice again.

"Where have you been?" She asked.

"I've always been with you. From the time you were born."

"But why haven't I met you until now?" She asked.

"Because you never came looking for me until now." He replied.

"Oh..." Her dark brow furrowed slightly. "But I can't see you, Father, the light is too bright."

"I know, child. Nobody can see me. But I am with you always in your heart. All it takes is an open heart to find me."

"In my heart?" Anne was confused. She looked down at her little chest and back up again. "But how?"

"Because I created you. Just like I created everyone else. Just like I created every living thing on the planet."

"You created everything?" Her eyes widened round as saucers.

"Yes."

“You mean like the animals and the birds and plants and trees?” she asked.

“Yes.”

"Oh...wow…you’ve been busy!" She exclaimed, clapping her hands together.

Her father chuckled. "Anne, I have an important message for you to deliver and I've chosen you to do it for me, if you will accept."

"You do? You chose me?" Anne was surprised to hear that. Most people never noticed her let alone chose her to perform important tasks.

"Yes. Do you think you could help me? It would mean saving many people's lives."

Anne smiled and nodded. "Yes, I can help you Father. What do you want me to do?"

"I want you to find my lost children. They are your brothers and sisters."

"You mean I have more? But why are they lost?" She was excited at that prospect, thinking maybe there’d be some her own age to play with..

"Because like you, before today, they never looked for me."

Anne nodded, understanding perfectly. "How will I find them? And when I do, what do I say to them?"

"You will tell them that my son, Jesus, will be coming soon and that they are to prepare their hearts for his return."

"What do you mean?" She asked. “Will there be a party?”

"I mean that when you open your heart, is when you are able to find me. Just like you did today. So they must do the same." He didn’t answer about the party, but Anne was already thinking of other things.

"But..." She was again confused. How could he come back if he had died? "Didn't he die on the cross?"

"Yes, he did. But you must have faith and trust what I say to you, for he will come back and it will be a miracle. Do you believe in miracles Anne?"

She thought about that a moment and then decided she did. Finding her Father on the first day she went looking had to be a miracle, didn't it? "Yes, I do." Anne smiled brilliantly, excited. Someone had entrusted her with a very important message and she was going to help find all the lost people and bring them back to their father. The prospect elated her.

"I love you Anne. My angels will be watching over you and I will see you soon." The light slowly faded away, until Anne found herself standing in the dark alley again, all alone.

“Wow!” She exclaimed, lowering her visored hand from above her eyes. “Angels!” Then she turned on her heel and ran back down the alley into the daylight of the sidewalk. People brushed past her, walking this way and that. She began to tug on sleeves and coat tails, walking along with them while telling them, "Jesus is coming! Jesus is coming! Open your heart!"

The people shrugged her off, or looked at her like she had three heads on her shoulders. Many were too busy talking on their cell phones, reading their papers, typing on their laptops, lugging their shopping bags and Anne found herself ignored. She couldn't understand why these people wouldn't be excited. Why they wouldn't listen to her. For hours she kept on tugging and pulling, walking and following and delivering the message her Father had asked her to until a man took notice of her and waved her over to him. She was only too happy to go, because he was the first who’d paid any attention to her yet.. He was dressed in rags, had a beard and was holding a bottle wrapped in a paper bag. To Anne, he definitely looked lost even though he wasn’t a child, he was a full grown man. "What's that you say little girl? Jesus is coming?" He asked.

"Yes! He is! And we will all get to meet our Father!" Anne replied excitedly. "He was right down that alley, right there!" She turned and pointed to where the light was and where she’s spoken to her father..

Again the man cackled with laughter than began to cough. He'd had a rough life and didn't believe in God. When he’d recovered he nodded and smirked, saying "Alright little girl. Here's a toast to you and your almighty Father!" Then he lifted the bottle back to his lips and drank heavily from it. It was at that moment that a policeman happened to walk by. He stopped and went up to Anne.

"Little girl, can I help you? Are you lost?"

"No sir." Anne said, glancing at the man with the bottle. "But I think he is.” She pointed to the bum. “I was just telling this man here that Jesus is coming and we should prepare our hearts."

The policeman laughed, thinking her quite cute and guided her away from the homeless bum on the street corner. "Is that so?"

"Yes, sir. Our Father told me. He was right down that alley." She pointed behind them a block away.

The policeman laughed again and gently guided her away from the bum with a hand to her back. "My, my...you're a regular miniature Aimee Simple McPherson aren't you?"

“My name is Anne, not Aimee…”

He stopped laughing and became more serious. "Now you listen to me. That alley is narrow, dark and dangerous and you should never go down there.” He shook a finger at her. “It's better that you stay on the sidewalk, where it's wide and lit with street lamps for your own safety." The policeman nodded and pursed his lower lip at her, sweeping his hand palm up to show her. "See how everyone else walks on the sidewalk? Nobody in their right mind goes down the alley and you shouldn't either young lady. Now you run along, I'm sure that your mother would have a fit if she knew you were trying to convert bums to Christianity on the city streets."

"Yes, sir. But really, I'm just fine. You don’t have to worry.. He said his angels would watch out for me." This time both the policeman and the bum laughed. Anne was confused as to why they were laughing as she turned and walked away. She couldn't help it, but she began to feel tears of frustration building up in her eyes. It seemed nobody wanted to hear what she had to say and if they bothered to listen, they didn't believe. She wouldn't give up though. Surely she'd find someone who believed her.

As she walked she continued to tell people the news, but nobody would listen to her still. And finally the sun began to go down and the people on the sidewalks thinned out as the stores began to close. A short, stout woman bustling by in a hurry took a look at the small girl all alone with her backpack and stopped to look at her. "Are you lost little girl?" she asked, touching Anne's shoulder with her free hand. She held a Bible in the other.

Anne looked up and saw the Bible, then into the woman’s face and smiled. "No ma'am. Are you?" Anne replied, looking hopeful.

"Oh, Lord no, I'm on my way to services at that church, right across the street." She pointed briefly then looked back to Anne and smiled.

Anne looked and saw the large cathedral with stained glass windows and lights shining brightly inside. "Are you looking for our Father?" Anne asked. "Because if you are, he's not there. He's was just down a this alley...I saw him and he spoke to me."

The woman looked at her strangely. "I don't think so..." She said, "I'm quite positive if He can be found anywhere it'd be in church and not down some dark, narrow, filthy alley."

"Well, that's not where I found him...He was in the alley."

The woman smirked. "Trust me, dear. I’ve been attending Church my entire life. I even considered becoming a nun at one time. I do everything a good Christian should. I go to church religiously and I even give a portion of my income to ensure that when the time comes, I will meet him." She lifted her chin, piously and looked down her thin nose at Anne. "I promise you that won't be happening anytime soon though. Our pastor says so."

"Well, he was..." Anne insisted. "And he gave me a message."

The woman's brows went up. "Oh?"

"Yes! He said that Jesus is coming soon and we should prepare our hearts."

The woman laughed, quite amused. "And he was down an alley when he told you this?"

"Yes ma'am." Anne nodded assuredly.

The woman snorted. "More than likely you were talking to some crazy person with nothing better to do than harass little girls and tell them silly stories. Besides, if our Father had a message for us, surely he would give it to someone like me and not you. Why, you're just a child! Now go on home now, it's getting late." And with that, she hurried away with the rest of the people going to services to join the people who filled the sidewalks outside the church and filtered inside. Anne stood and watched as the doors closed behind them.

Feeling quite dejected after a very long, hard day, Anne turned slowly walked back down the street in the direction from which she'd come. When she reached the alley, she stopped and squinted her eyes in the darkness to see if she could see her Father again. "Hello?" She called. Silence. She stood there for several minutes. Nothing. So, she walked home, her head hung in disappointment and her heart heavy with sadness because she had not found a single lost brother and sister all day long. When she got home, nobody had even noticed she'd been gone. Her brother and sister were nowhere to be found and her mother had left a note on the refrigerator saying she'd be away on a business trip for the next two days. Anne removed her backpack and walked up the stairs, dragging it behind her all the way to her room where she closed her door behind her softly and went to bed.

The following morning Anne was gone. She'd been reunited at last with her heavenly Father. Along with her were also those brothers and sisters who'd looked for Him as well and who'd opened their hearts and walked down narrow dark alleyways to find Him. While Anne's family had never paid much attention to her or cared whether she was there or not until it was too late, her Heavenly Father had always watched over her and He had missed Anne very much and now they would be together for all of eternity.

Anne spent just one day spreading the message her Father gave her to anyone and everyone she encountered. And even though those people she tried to warn didn’t listen - she would be remembered for what she did - and more hearts would be opened and lost would be found. So you see, it’s never too late to spread the good news. Even if you don’t see the immediate results of your work while in service to the Lord, it’s all part of a divine plan.

The Truth About the Rapture

There are many debates amongst Christians as to if the Rapture will truly happen and if it will, whether or not it will be pre-tribulation or mid-tribulation. The Rapture WILL occur.

People who don’t believe that we are currently living in the End Times say, “Oh people have been saying that for 2,000 years and the world hasn’t ended yet!” I guess you can warn people, but most of them will just shrug their shoulders and continue on with their lives because by now it’s like “Cry Wolf Syndrome”. People have been predicting the end of the world for so long that nobody takes it seriously anymore. The thing is that he is like many people who don’t recognize the “signs” that are taking place and there are many people who are like that.

“At the same time, God also testified by signs and wonders, various miracles, and distributions [of gifts] from the Holy Spirit according to His will.” Hebrews 2:4 (HCSB)

“But know this: difficult times will come in the last days. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, without love for what is good, traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to the form of religion but denying its power. Avoid these people!” 2 Timothy 3:1-5 (HCSB)

People have to decide on their own what they believe. But, with the Cherubs at our side, we’re not proving false to the Creator’s power. We’re delivering the messages He has instructed the Cherubs to relay to Mankind. The Scriptures in 2 Timothy are meant for those that have insight.

“Then there will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and there will be anguish on the earth among nations bewildered by the roaring sea and waves.” Luke 21:25 (HCSB)

The symbolic meaning for “sea” is people. You’ve noted that people worldwide are becoming more agitated; especially with the way the governments handle things.

“People will faint from fear and expectation of the things that are coming on the world, because the celestial powers will be shaken.” Luke 21:26 (HCSB)

As with when Hurricane Rita demolished the Texas and Louisiana coastlines, and further natural disasters have taken place since then and will take place in the future, the fear is evident of what’s expected. But, that’s just one domino in the line of this effect that nature creates. The domino effect knocks over the next, then the next, and so on. It’s all steering prophecy to this:

When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you took care of Me; I was in prison and you visited Me.’

“Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You something to drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or without clothes and clothe You? When did we see You sick, or in prison, and visit You?’ “And the King will answer them, ‘I assure you: Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me. ‘Then He will also say to those on the left, ‘Depart from Me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the Devil and his angels! For I was hungry and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me nothing to drink; I was a stranger and you didn’t take Me in; I was naked and you didn’t clothe Me, sick and in prison and you didn’t take care of Me.’ “Then they too will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or without clothes, or sick, or in prison, and not help You?’ “Then He will answer them, ‘I assure you: Whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for Me either.’ “And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” Matthew 25:31-46 (HCSB)

For the past few years, I was having dreams about the end of the world. They were all the same and it was actually starting to get annoying because I had them so often. Confusion, searching for loved ones, buildings in ruins, water, and people stuck in tall buildings, trying to survive what looks like a major disaster. There are also unknown “beings” in full armor that are slaughtering those who they find. I always managed to escape them but in the dreams many did not. I wonder now if those “beings” were in fact angels. I thought they were symbolic but maybe they weren’t. Funny enough, they’ve now stopped completely.

My dreams were of the coming Great Tribulation and the Apocalypse. What happened in Louisiana in the wake of Hurricane Katrina is just a small preview of what will happen worldwide as society collapses. The Cherubic Order of Holy Angels will eventually break all lines of communication. People will be unable to hear what’s going on as the communication network around the globe goes asunder. When the Rapture occurs, the Anti-Christ will come on the scene. People left behind will turn to him, because they will feel Christ has betrayed those left behind. In their twisted thoughts, they will praise and worship the Anti-Christ as their new savior; but that won’t last for long. He will seem to help at first, but then will make things more intolerable than they have been. The people will rebel and it will culminate up to Armageddon.

We have entered the “last days.” A judgment period is taking place. The Cherubic Order of Holy Angels are bringing forth the prophecies that lead up to and after the Rapture. They are bringing to pass the Scripture Isaiah which reads in part, “To proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn…” Isaiah 61:2 (HCSB) The Cherubs are now openly proclaiming that the Creator is responsible for what is happening to bring forth His Will for the good of those that believe in Him and His Son Christ Jesus.
In the Book of Jeremiah, the Cherubic Order of Holy Angels are in judgment with the nations on this earth. It says, “The tumult reaches to the ends of the earth because the LORD brings a case against the nations. He enters into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, He hands them over to the sword—[This is] the LORD’s declaration.” Jeremiah 25:3 (HCSB) Giving them to the sword is to cause their deaths on battlefields. This and other things that the Cherubic Order of Holy Angels are involved in are taking place around the globe.

After the Rapture, and as Armageddon draws near, the Cherubic Order of Holy Angels will take a direct hand in the actual combat by slaying the evil ones personally. Today, they use proxy means to accomplish prophecy; but the day is coming when the Cherubic Order of Holy Angels will personally execute the remaining evil people of this planet. That’s part of their message to Mankind. Time is starting to get short. Once the Rapture occurs, things will escalate as the Great tribulation ushers in. There will be more judgment, then Armageddon which will be the climax.

There are lots of people looking for the truth. Some want to discount the Creator’s Word and seek Universal Salvation. It doesn’t exist. Others, they want to believe that this side is all there is. Many others are seemingly on the fence; they don’t know what to believe.

If there was Universal Salvation, there would be no need for testing anyone’s heart condition. Those that believe this side is all there is - you will probably get your wish - being this late into the War.

Those of you that believe you are on the fence - there is no fence. You are either with the Creator and His Son Christ, or you are with Satan. There’s no middle ground. You have to take one side or the other. If you choose Satan’s side, I’m certain he’ll treat you well. You’d better enjoy it though, because you’ll share his fate. But those that choose Christ - you won’t always be being tested. This will all eventually come to a climax at the Rapture. The ones left behind will then know which side of the fence they’ve been placed on. If you are one of those relying on psychics that claim there is Universal Salvation - or simply Bliss on the other side regardless of what you really are over here, good luck because you’re going to need all you can get.

The bottom line is, there is the Creator - there is Christ - and there are Sovereign Laws that we’re all going to have to follow if we want to be part of the future. The dark realms and their prisoners, and the converts will be done away with when Satan and his demons are destroyed at the final judgment. We live in a time that you could get caught before transition. If that happens and you are on the wrong side of the fence, you will not have a future. But it’s each person’s choice. No one will twist arms to save your future life. It lies in each persons own desires.

Question: Many people say that the Rapture won’t happen, because it’s not mentioned in the Bible. Is this true?
Answer: No, that’s not true. Again, people have misinterpreted what the Scripture says in attempting to take it literally rather than symbolically. While the specific word “Rapture” is not mentioned in the Bible, there are many verses that refer to it. The word “Rapture” comes from the Latin verb rapere which means “to carry off, abduct, seize or take forcefully”. It was used in the Latin Vulgate translation of 1 Thessalonians 4:17 which is the primary biblical reference to the Rapture. In addition 1 Corinthians 15:51-54, Matthew 25:13 also refer to the Rapture. The truth is that there will be two Raptures. One which will take place pre-tribulation and one which will take at Armageddon.

Question: What are the stages of Heaven and the Raptures?

Answer: Those people that are potentials to be Raptured alive in the future, will have their hearts examined thoroughly before Christ will permit them to be caught away to him and Sanctified. Those that are successfully Raptured will be changed in the twinkling of an eye to spiritual bodies. The main things to remember for those in the Rapture, are these things: (1) Declared Righteous. (2) Resurrected from Sinful death by Rapture. (3) Sanctification by passing through the Light into Christ’s Kingdom. Scripture References:

2 Corinthians 12:2-4 “I know a man in Christ who was caught up into the third heaven 14 years ago. Whether he was in the body or out of the body, I don’t know; God knows. I know that this man—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows—was caught up into paradise. He heard inexpressible words, which a man is not allowed to speak.” Paul was given the psychic vision of the Third Heaven.

1 John 2:27 “The anointing you received from Him remains in you, and you don’t need anyone to teach you. Instead, His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie; just as it has taught you, remain in Him.” For the Anointed.

John 17:17 “Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth.” Sanctification of the truth concerning Yahweh’s Will. This is part of the counsel Christ and his Counselors give for Sanctification via entry to the Light.

John 1:12, 13 “But to all who did receive Him, He gave them the right to be children of God, to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood, or of the will of the flesh, or of the will of man, but of God.” Revealing that you will be reborn in the Kingdom; not of flesh and blood, but of spirit.

2 Corinthians 1:21 “Now the One who confirms us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, is God;” Being baptized into Christ’s Kingdom by Yahweh.

James 1:18 “By His own choice, He gave us a new birth by the message of truth so that we would be the firstfruits of His creatures.” This applies to the Holy Ghosts that are on the Ladder of Authority. They were given a new birth to Sanctification by learning the Truth prior to pre-Light entry.

John 6:39, 40 “This is the will of Him who sent Me: that I should lose none of those He has given Me but should raise them up on the last day.” (The day of the final and second Rapture. Those that prove faithful will be caught up to him, just as those in the first Rapture were. That way, Christ loses none of those that repent and become positive energy.) “For this is the will of My Father: that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.” The “last day” is the final Rapture train off this planet. After that, it is curtains for those that remain behind.

Romans 6:5 “For if we have been joined with Him in the likeness of His death, we will certainly also be in the likeness of His resurrection.” Christ’s death was to bore our sins through his death. His resurrection was to spirit; your “death” is the removal of sin, and to be changed in the twinkling of an eye to a spiritual body like Christ has.
1 Corinthians 15:42-49 “So it is with the resurrection of the dead: Sown in corruption, raised in incorruption; sown in dishonor, raised in glory; sown in weakness, raised in power; sown a natural body, raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. So it is written: The first man Adam became a living being ; the last Adam became a life-giving Spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man was from the earth and made of dust; the second man is from heaven. Like the man made of dust, so are those who are made of dust; like the heavenly man, so are those who are heavenly. And just as we have borne the image of the man made of dust, we will also bear the image of the heavenly man.” Jesus is the “last Adam.” “the spiritual is not first, but the natural” means that those that passed over and later Crossed Over were made up of natural Mankind - not born in Heaven previously. They make up the Holy Ghosts on the Ladder of Authority. “then the spiritual.” refers to those that are later Raptured alive to spirit life. The natural Mankind dies off or is killed. They are at the pre-light stage, and so they were the first Holy Ghosts because they died over the centuries by physical death. Then, those Raptured become spiritual without physical death; they are the latter.
1 Corinthians 15:52 “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.” This refers to the final Rapture; but it also applies to both Raptures, because it describes how you are resurrected from the cousin of sin - death. It is stated that way because in Yahweh’s eyes, we are all dead unless we repent and seek Christ. When that happens, at the Raptures the sin deserving of the eternal death penalty is shed off of you, and you are raised to an incorruptible eternal life, so long as you do not disobey Yahweh’s Will. Remember this: Sin is corruption. It is also disobedience. If you obey, you will live for eternity.

Question: It’s probably safe to say that if Adam and Eve hadn’t sinned none of this would be happening. My question though, is that if Adam and Eve didn’t know good and evil until after they ate from the tree, why were they held accountable for their actions in eating from the tree?

Answer: Let’s start with “SIN.” Both the Greek and Hebrew translations (Greek: “ha-mar-ti’a” and Hebrew: “hha-ta’”) mean literally “to miss” the mark. It is a sense of not maintaining integrity, and thereby missing a given goal that was declared as Law. The goal was to not eat from a certain tree in the Sacred Garden. Failing to reach that goal over a period of time that was a testing period to their integrity and the first human pair missed the mark and subsequently fell from the state of perfection. For their lack of integrity to Yahweh’s Law, there was a stated ramification that would follow disobedience. It is recorded at Genesis 2:16 and 17 “And the LORD God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree of the garden, but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for on the day you eat from it, you will certainly die.”

Adam knew what death was, because Yahweh’s cycle of life on the physical planet concerning animals, vegetation, insects and all lower creations have life-spans. The lower creation passes on; but Adam and Eve were made in the image of God, and they were promised eternal life if they continued to follow His Will, which are His stated Laws. They knew they were under a test. They knew that there was also a Tree of Life in the Sacred Garden, that they would later be able to eat from if they continued to follow Yahweh’s Will without sacrificing their integrity to rebel against His stated Law. Genesis 3:2-3 reveals that Eve had been warned against the disobedient action of eating fruit from that specific tree. She even knew the location of the tree, which shows that Adam had taken her to the tree so that there would be no mishap of her accidentally eating from it. She was even warned not to touch it, or that would also result in having the death sentence imposed: “The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees in the garden. But about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God said, ‘You must not eat it or touch it, or you will die.’” Note that Eve quoted what God said. She knew it was Law, and that it was wrong to violate that Law.

Adam and Eve were in the stage of being taught Yahweh’s Will concerning His creation. He gave them a simple test. They were not going to starve, because Yahweh had provided ample food with other fruit trees in that garden. There was a bounty of food on this planet at that time in history to supply all living things with nutrition. The sacred Garden was the beginning of what the entire Earth was to eventually be like. Yahweh’s angelic forces had planted and nurtured the Sacred Garden as an example as well as a home for the first human couple. And while they were being tested to see whether or not they would abuse Yahweh’s Law with their free will, an angel was placed over them to see that they followed His Laws, and watch over them. If either or both of them sinned by breaking the stated Law, he was to have executed them within the day they ate of the forbidden fruit. That was what Yahweh’s Will (command) had stated was the punishment. If sin occurred, Satan was to be the executioner of the one sinning. But instead of nurturing Adam and Eve, he went to the woman and encouraged her to sin first. He knew she was the weaker vessel, because Adam had been told directly from God, but Eve had heard the command from Adam. He figured he would have better success with his overt plan by deceiving her, and then encouraging her in thought injections to entice Adam to lose his integrity also. The plan worked. But did Yahweh fail to carry out His Judgment as He had warned: “for on the day you eat from it, you will certainly die.”

It’s true that both Adam and Eve should have been executed immediately for breaking Yahweh’s Law; but because of the circumstances involved, Yahweh held off on immediate execution of the couple. He saw what Satan did and He permitted Satan (behind the scenes - invisible) to inject the woman to entice Adam to eat from the forbidden tree also. When that was accomplished, Satan expected that Yahweh would send another Holy Angel to execute the pair of humans, but that did not happen. Yet, Yahweh’s Will took place just as he said it would. For in the day they ate of the fruit, they would perish in death. It was not a 24 hour day; instead, it was a day that Yahweh regulated: 2 Peter 3:8 “Dear friends, don’t let this one thing escape you: with the Lord one day is like 1,000 years, and 1,000 years like one day.” There is a good reason it is not to escape your notice; it goes all the way back to the first Judgment day in which Yahweh warned Adam: “for on the day you eat from it, you will certainly die.” According to Yahweh’s timetable, their deaths occurred within the same day, just as he warned them it would happen.

So, Sin, not that of knowing good and evil is what the test was about. They personified evil by breaking God’s stated Law. Satan knew what all of Yahweh’s Laws were because he was a Deputy to the Creator. The fact that it fell on him if Adam and Eve had sinned on their own, to be executed by him is outlined at Psalms 103:20 “Praise the LORD, [all] His angels of great strength, who do His word, obedient to His command.” Since Satan was placed over the human pair as well as the Earth, it fell on him to “do His word, obedient to His command.” But since Satan was the instigator of the human pair sinning, he threw a monkey wrench in Yahweh’s purposed plan for Mankind and because Satan was from the Cherubic Order of Holy Angels, Yahweh ordered that Order to fulfill new commands concerning the Man and Woman that had sinned. Yahweh personally drove the pair out of the Garden of Eden with His Active Force. This is the first recorded use of Yahweh’s direct involvement in the Spiritual War that had begun: Genesis 3:24 “He drove man out, and east of the garden of Eden He stationed cherubim with a flaming, whirling sword to guard the way to the tree of life.”

Yahweh uses his Active Force the same as we would use our bodies to perform a task. In addition, Yahweh ordered the Cherubic Order to be stationed on this planet; their CP (Command Post) was designated as the outside perimeter of the Sacred Garden. In addition, He placed the flaming sword to keep Satan from reaching the Tree of Life and giving fruit to the first sinful couple. And because Adam and Eve had disobeyed about not eating from the tree He had commanded them not to, nor to even touch it, He no longer trusted them in the garden near a tree that could result in the Judgment being lifted off of them. So, he literally drove them out of the Garden. Like Satan and his angels that were later cast out of Heaven, Adam and Eve did not willingly leave their paradise home. It took Yahweh’s Active Force to drive them out: Genesis 3:22-24 “The LORD God said, “Since man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil, he must not reach out, and also take from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever.” So the LORD God sent him away from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he was taken. He drove man out, and east of the garden of Eden He stationed cherubim with a flaming, whirling sword to guard the way to the tree of life.”

Because of the disobedient act of eating from the tree, he had become “knowing good and evil,” in Yahweh’s eyes. It was evil to break Law. Remember what I have told all of you: To remain in a state of Perfection once Raptured, you must NOT break His Laws. And since Adam and Eve had sinned, they had “man has become like one of Us” What Yahweh meant, was they had been enlightened to the fact they had sinned. Like the Holy Hosts, Adam and Eve had had their eyes opened to all of Yahweh’s Laws. Although He had not yet given them all of His Laws, they had been unfaithful in what is least, and it brought forth the opening of their eyes to all of Yahweh’s Commandments: Genesis 3:7 “Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves.” Being naked was not the Law they broke; instead, Yahweh had opened their minds to all of His Laws, because they had lost their integrity, and now they were being shown a revelation of Yahweh’s Sovereign Rule concerning all of creation. In learning those things, “man has become like one of us” was appropriate for Yahweh to tell to the Word that was also watching the events unfold.

Because Adam and Eve hid from Yahweh’s voice, it was a clear indication that they knew they had done wrong in His eyes. They were not naive and ignorant of what they had done, as is pointed out in the Scripture: Genesis 3:8 “Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden at the time of the evening breeze, and they hid themselves from the LORD God among the trees of the garden.” They would not have gone into hiding if they had not realized the graveness of their sin. Adam tried to shirt the blame to Eve; she put it on the Serpent (Satan). But for all three of them, it was too late. They had all fallen from Perfection. But Yahweh’s plan for Mankind was only thwarted. He still wanted to bring His Plan to full realization. It was that that time he asked the Word if he would die a sacrificial death for the offspring of Mankind. This is where secondary sin is passed to offspring: 1 Corinthians 15:22 “For just as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.”
All offspring could not be saved by their own merit. Adam and Eve were no longer perfect; they needed a corresponding Ransom Sacrifice because all offspring were born into sin, even though they personally had not sinned; but this is what opened the door for the opportunity to be forgiven of Adam and Eve’s sin: Psalm 51:5 “Indeed, I was guilty [when I] was born; I was sinful when my mother conceived me.” The sin was passed on to the offspring. But Christ was the Second Adam, because he was Perfect and was willing to lay down his life to take the sin away from the offspring, because they had never reached Perfection: 1 Corinthians 15:45 “So it is written: The first man Adam became a living being ; the last Adam became a life-giving Spirit.” Here Christ is shown the corresponding Sacrifice necessary to take the sin away: 1 Timothy 2:6 “who gave Himself—a ransom for all, a testimony at the proper time.” 1 Peter 3:18 “For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that He might bring you to God, after being put to death in the fleshly realm but made alive in the spiritual realm.” That was a balancing of Yahweh’s scale of justice. He had to act as a mediator between Yahweh and Mankind: Timothy 2:5 “For there is one God and one mediator between God and man, a man, Christ Jesus,”
So, did Adam and Eve know that it was wrong to break Yahweh’s stated Law and sin? Romans 5:19 “For just as through one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, so also through the one man’s obedience the many will be made righteous.” Adam and Eve were disobedient, and by hiding from Yahweh, they proved that fact beyond a doubt. It made them sinners (falling from a perfect state) and it brought all of us into sin. It also took a perfect man to release us from the sin and wrath. But to be released, you must have faith in Christ and obey the message within the Word. If we do not, we remain in sin and under wrath.

Just to sum things up, on this subject the Supreme Cherubic Commander says, “Converting to sin put Mankind out of harmony with Father. It damaged not only the relationship they had with Him, but also their relations with all of creation; for all of creation belongs to Father. This included damaging effects to Mankind’s own self. They damaged the purity of their minds, their bodies, and most importantly, their hearts. By breaking Father’s Law under a simple test, they brought enormous consequences upon themselves and their later offspring. That consequence was in them bringing evil upon themselves and their offspring. They also forced Father to uphold his warning of eternal death if they disobeyed. In that Father permitted offspring to be born after they had committed a sinful act deserving of execution was an undeserved kindness in itself. Had they both been executed immediately, there would be no race of Mankind spawned through Adam; for Eve was also taken from Adam, so they were both of the same fleshline. Father would have destroyed all memories of all that would have been born through the Adamic line if the executions had been immediate, because they, as you all are, would have been benefactors of the sin. All of the Adamic line would have perished in Father’s memory even before their conception of births, which would have never taken place. None of you would have ever seen life; and even if Father had created another human through the Word, that pair would have had a totally different human line of offspring. In a way, it is better for all of you that Satan sinned first, enticing Eve to break Father’s Law. Had Adam and Eve both sinned willfully on their own, none of you would have been permitted to become life in Father’s creation. If Adam had not sinned, and Eve had, she would have been executed, but a new mate from another rib of Adam’s would have been created. In that case, all of you would have been in Father’s memory, and only Eve would have been lost to eternal death. If Adam had sinned, but not Eve, then Father would have taken a rib from her and created a second Adam, and you would all be without sin, provided the new mate of either scenario passed a similar test.
When Adam and Eve had both touched the fruit of the forbidden tree, they sinned. When they carried the sin farther by eating the forbidden fruit, they took sin one step further by causing internal upheaval within themselves with feelings of guilt, insecurity toward Father; anxiety over what He was going to do, and shame for having committed a wrongful act in such a simple test because Father did not give all of His Laws as prohibitions. He did not say “You must not murder” or to say they must not commit any vile act, even though that is one of Father’s Laws. He did not imply to the humans that he felt they were hiding inclinations that were grossly evil. He gave a simple test to allow them to prove they loved Him and wanted to live for eternity in paradise. Father never said it was a sin to be naked. By eating the forbidden fruit, they realized from within that it symbolized the knowledge of what is good and what is bad; in their own eyes, they decided on their own, once they realized they were naked, that it was wrong to be naked. In doing that, they decided to judge upon their own understanding what was good and what was bad. In Father’s eyes, they had made themselves to be like Him and the Word in deciding what was good and what was bad. In doing so, they turned away from Father’s counsel to their own inclination that was born from eating that fruit. Had it been evil to be naked, Father would not have placed them in the Sacred Garden in an unclothed state. By unrepentant actions they (offspring) continue to lean upon their own understanding to their own demise of eternal annihilation. Father’s Law has been written upon Mankind’s heart since the first human couple came into existence.”

Romans 2:15 “They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts. Their consciences testify in support of this, and their competing thoughts either accuse or excuse them.”

-Supreme Cherubic Commander

Question: If Christ didn’t die on the cross... If things didn’t work out the way they did and he lived to be 90 and died of natural causes instead, wouldn’t Mankind have been S.O.L.?

Answer: That’s a good question. When Yahweh asked his Son (the Word, or more aptly, the Spokesman of Yahweh) if he would redeem Mankind by offering his perfect soul in exchange, He also gave him a way out. If he decided at anytime to not go through with it, because it had to be voluntary on his part and not compulsory, he could do so provided he had not sinned. In fact, Yahweh had promised him legions of Cherubs if he chose to call it off; if that happened, he would have returned to Heaven at the time he passed (Yahweh’s choosing of time) if he continued to be sinless. In that event, Yahweh would have chosen someone else to bring Salvation through. But if he followed through, which Jesus did, his Father promised him a Kingdom that he could Rule over, and a name that would be above all others - Jesus Christ. Jesus means “Salvation of Yahweh” and Christ means “Anointed One.” When he was called the “Word” that accurately described his function of being a communicator between Yahweh and creation.

If however, Jesus had decided to not go through with the Ransom Sacrifice and had called it off without sinning, he would have been taken by Yahweh and ascended back to Heaven to his original position as the Word. But he would not have been given the Kingdom that his Father promised. And, if he had decided to live out his mortal life on earth, he would have sinned by doing so, because that was not his purpose for coming to the earth; he would have aged and died and been imprisoned in a dark realm, or possibly put over with Satan’s side, because of his having previously been a spirit being. So, everything hedged on him coming through for all of us.

Question: Is there any such thing as “pre-destined”?

Answer: The things Yahweh wishes to do to fulfill His Will are predestined events. But, who the events come though are not predestined upon any individual. Do you know why? Because of free will. To predestine anyone would be against their free will. So, Yahweh brings about circumstances that cause people he’s picked or chosen to manifest His Will through. But like with the Word, he could have backed out. But, there would have been another chosen for the task; however, that spirits name would have also been Jesus Christ. Why? Because it accurately describes who and what he was in Yahweh’s Divine Plan of things: Jesus (Salvation of Yahweh) Christ (Anointed One). When Yahweh gives a name, it is for a purpose. Just like when Jesus was the “Word.” It meant his spokesman. He was his craftsman as well.

The creation is predestined to live in Perfection of Christ’s Kingdom; but who gets in there is not predestined. Both the invisible and the visible creation is also a part of the coming Kingdom. The only thing excluded is negative energy, whether it be human or spirit.

Question: If those of the “Jewish persuasion” don’t believe that Jesus is the Son of God, who died on the cross for our sins... will they be marked for the Rapture?

Answer: At one time, the Israelites were the Creator’s chosen people. They typified the things that were to come in later times. Jesus came through the Jewish line, and the message he preached was first directed to them. Later, it was extended to everyone, because he died for all of Mankind. But, the Jew’s rejected Christ. He had interrupted their traditions, and more so, took away the power they possessed over the people. Him coming as a Teacher that displayed miracles, and his profound knowledge left them feeling displaced in God’s order of things; so, they conspired to get rid of him. But, are they cursed? No.

All of the things that happened to Christ were foretold by the prophets beforehand. His birth, ministry and death on a torture state, etc. So, the Jews actually fulfilled the prophecies with Satan’s help; although Satan helped unintentionally. He did not understand the ramifications of what that sacrificial death meant to him.

Today, God’s people are the Spiritual Israelites - not the nation of Israel. It is the heart of each person, whether he is Jew or Gentile, determines whether or not he or she will be with Christ. Non acceptance of him at present does not constitute a permanent death sentence. What will do that is after the Rapture if they do not open their hearts to him. Those that don’t believe Christ is the true Messiah will be left behind; then the Great Tribulation will begin. During that time many will come to realize that Christ did indeed come to take back those he promised he would. But, a second chance for Salvation will be extended during the Tribulation. Some will follow the anti-Christ, while others will have a change of heart and seek Christ. Those are the ones that will survive Armageddon and be accepted into Christ’s Kingdom with those that had already previously left at the Rapture.

It all boils down to each person’s heart condition. It is better to be in the first resurrection (Rapture) than to be in the second, because of the hardship that awaits those during the Tribulation period.

There have been millions of people that have crossed over that were not of Christian faith; yet, when counseled before entry into the Light, they accepted the truth of Christ and his Kingdom. That and a good heart is all it took to get them through the Light. And, you cannot fool the Creator or Christ. They know the true heart condition. So, it will be the same for those that live up to the time of Armageddon.

Question: Since the Rapture is Christ’s gift to his children, why would people who don’t necessarily believe in Christ but do believe and love GOD, be taken to Heaven in the Rapture?

Answer: “Each of us one on one.” That’s the correct answer. Only a person’s heart is judged to get into Christ’s Kingdom. If they don’t yet know him, they will get the chance to come to know him if they have a good heart. If they don’t have a good heart, they’re out of luck. They might as well team up with Satan.

Question: If you are still alive at the time for Rapture, and you don’t know if Christ is God’s son or not--but you have a heart for God, will you still go in the Rapture?

Answer: It depends on the mark. If they are left behind, but of a good heart, it is because Christ wants them to see that he is indeed the Christ, but does not feel that they yet accept him. If however, they are marked to go, but are undecided as to whether or not the Scriptures are true, then they know immediately at the Rapture that they are indeed true. They were soo close to believing that no more testing was necessary. Understand? The others require a “Head Bop!” to get the point across. Christ directs the marking work performed by the Cherubs. After the Great Tribulation begins there will be one more marking. Many Black Tear-Drops will be changed to Red. They will be Raptured to Christ at Armageddon. It will be the final chance to have him receive them to him. At that time, he will also direct the execution of Evil Mankind. Satan and his demons will be removed off the scene as the Light expands to encompass all of creation except for the Orange Plane. Then all converts will be imprisoned and the dark realms will be dumped into the Orange Plane awaiting final Judgment. Christ will rein Supreme at that point in time.

There is, however, such a thing as a “borderline heart.” By that, he means that a person can cultivate their heart to be good or bad. Some people in Dark Realms will be spared, because they cultivated a change of heart while there - to a good heart. They truly felt badly about past actions. They will be released (this he has just informed me) at the time the converts are imprisoned. That’s why it’s important for each person to search their hearts for their true feelings. You can cultivate a good heart if you do not have one. But time is running out. Christ can change a person’s view on life. That can be a beneficial heart change. That’s why there are Shepherds. To help those that want to come to Christ; to put them in contact with him so that he can help cultivate what is necessary in order to be with him.

Question: “What are the signs of the End Times?”

Answer: Jesus said that the last days would be preceded by several things: many false christs would come, deceiving many; we would “hear of wars and rumors of wars”; and there would be an increase in “famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows”. Today’s news is full of apostate religions, warfare, and natural disasters as well as wars and rumors of wars. We know that events of the Tribulation will include all that Jesus predicted; what we see today seems to be a build-up for greater trouble ahead.

Paul warned that the last days would bring a marked increase in false teaching. “In the latter times, some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils”. The last days are described as “perilous times” because of the increasingly evil character of man and people who actively “resist the truth”. Our Twenty-first Century world has embraced moral relativism, tainting even the church. For example, many denominations are having a hard time defining marriage as being between one man and one woman, and many religious leaders today are openly supporting homosexuality. The Bible has become subordinate to the modern church’s quest for a more appealing “truth.” These are indeed “perilous times” spiritually.

The formation of the European Union—and the fact that we have a reunified Germany—is very interesting in light of biblical prophecy. The “ten toes” of Daniel 2:42 and the ten-horned beasts of Daniel 7:20 and Revelation 13:1 are all references to a “revived” Roman Empire which will hold power before Christ returns. The pieces seem to be falling into place, politically.

In 1948, Israel was recognized as a sovereign state, and this, too, has ramifications for the student of scripture. God promised Abram that his posterity would have Canaan as “an everlasting possession”, and Ezekiel prophesied a physical and spiritual resuscitation of Israel. Having Israel as a nation in its own land is important in light of end-time prophecy because of Israel’s prominence in eschatology.

Question: “Have any aspects of End-Time prophecy been fulfilled?”

Answer: Revelation 4:1 introduces a section of scripture that details “things which must be hereafter.” What follows are prophecies of the “end times.” We have not yet reached the Tribulation, the revelation of the antichrist, or other “End-Time” events. What we do see is a “preparation” for those events. The next prophecy to be fulfilled is the return of our Lord Jesus Christ to rapture His Church.

Question: One of the signs is that sea animals would wash up on the shores for no apparent reasons. And a few months ago, this happened and nobody could seem to come up with any other answer as to why aside from the ‘ole “Global Warming” explanation. Then it happened again. And again. When I saw it on the news I thought about prophecy. I’m wondering if what happened actually had anything to do with what’s going on now because I just can’t seem to get it out of my head.

Answer: The radiation from underground and past above-ground atomic blasts, fishers and streams, air to sea, carrying the residual radiation, and even flight fuel being dumped over the oceans is killing out what is in the bottom of the seas. He said with the ecology destroyed on the lower end of the large sea life’s food chain that the sea life is dying. It will become more evident in the coming months ahead. So yes, we are seeing a seal broken by the avenging angels. Be prepared, because everything is only going to get worse. Mankind will add to the misery as we near the Great Tribulation.

Question: I’ve heard about the Seals being broken before - I think that was in the movie as well. What do they mean exactly?

Answer: “The second poured out his bowl into the sea. It turned to blood like a dead man’s, and all life in the sea died.” Revelation 16:3 (HCSB) The Seals contain God’s anger - stored up. When the Seal is broken, the anger is released. Many of the Seals are broken leading up to Armageddon. The Seal for killing all sea life has been broken for some time now. The mismanagement of Mankind’s use of this planet’s resources, such as uranium, had helped to add to the broken Seal’s prophecy of what would happen to life in the seas. The blood in the Scripture depicts the pouring out of life and the death, just like that of a person, of all sea life. There are vials of anger also. All anger of God. Seals also represent something that is hidden and closed for a time and in this case which is actually sealed by Holy Spirit. So, it takes a Holy Angel to break the seals. God knew all of the things that would happen beforehand. He knew that Mankind would contribute to this old world’s destruction. The Holy Angels are just helping the process along.

The Meanings of Trumpets 1-4 The terms earth, sea, trees, grass, fish, ships etc. may have symbolic as well as literal meanings. But it must be remembered that one third of Mankind are slain at Trumpet No. 6, so it is most unlikely that these terms also represent Mankind. See, they are not certain themselves. But all does reflect the Symbolic with the literal. The final big earthquake will be literal at Armageddon. It will literally shake every mountain to the ground. Out with the old and in with the new.

They did manage to put the Creator’s name back in their Bible. Where Lord is used in the King James Version they took out YHWH which stood for Yahweh. Back long ago, they added the consonants to the reading. Many people believe that it’s spelled Yahweh instead. But that’s incorrect. Remember, Jesus said he came to make his Father’s name known. (John 17:6-26) God is merely a title. Creator means that God is the maker of all things. So, Jesus manifested his Father’s name to his disciples. Satan and the nations profaned that name. Please read: Ezekiel 36:23

This is why I’ve said that all Christian religions have a mixture of the truth. They just don’t have all of the pieces to the puzzle. Also, I should mention that “Lord” is also used to describe Christ. The way it is capitalized in the KJV is what reveals where the YHWH was substituted for the LORD if I remember correctly. And some versions use Red Type to reveal Christ’s own sayings. But irregardless, Jesus Christ is the WAY to Salvation. No other name can save anyone. His Father bestowed that Honor upon him.

Question: I think I am feeling a shift. Call it an awakening of some sort. Whether it is a shift within myself or a shift in the general populations consciousness or maybe even a shift in the Spirit Realm I’m not sure. I notice that a lot of other people are commenting on feeling it as well. What’s going on?!

Answer: The veil is thinning... that’s part of what I’m meant to do is help people understand. That’s what “Lifting the Veil” means. But you’re absolutely right in what you’re seeing and feeling...it is happening and it’s in direct relation to the prophecies.

Question: When the Rapture occurs, will those who are Raptured leave their physical bodies behind or will they completely disappear?

Answer: You cannot go beyond the Earth’s atmosphere in a physical body. Even Christ whom was resurrected was transformed into spirit to set the pattern of what was to come. Your human body is chiefly composed of dust from this planet; therefore, it is merely a container that houses your spirit, which is your energy. Scriptures for backing up the statements above: Ecclesiastes 12:7 “and the dust returns to the earth as it once was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.” As you are transformed for the Rapture in the twinkling of an eye, you become spirit, and your container is left behind. It does not belong in the Spirit Realm. The Spirit Realm is a realm of spirit energy; at that time, the veil has not been completely lifted to merge with the physical. The spirit must be reborn through the Lights water of eternal life; that is why the Sanctification of fire does not represent destruction. It is watered down to provide LIFE in the Kingdom so that you are not destroyed. It is symbolic (the waters of life) in contrast with the waters that destroyed an ancient world of Noah’s day: Genesis 6:17 “Understand that I am bringing a deluge—floodwaters on the earth to destroy all flesh under heaven with the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will die.” John 3:5 “Jesus answered, “I assure you: Unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” Here, Christ speaks of the water of life in contrast to the water of destruction. It is a rebirth into the Kingdom of Christ.

1 Corinthians 15:52 “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.” In Yahweh’s eyes, all of Mankind was deemed dead in sinful conduct of the first human couple; when you are Raptured, you are then deemed alive in spirit and will be incorruptible to the elements that could destroy the human mortal container; therefore, you are changed to spirit energy for the journey with Christ to his spiritual Kingdom.

1 Peter 3:18 “For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that He might bring you to God, after being put to death in the fleshly realm but made alive in the spiritual realm.” Note that it speaks of the “fleshly realm.” That’s on the mortal plane. To bring you before Yahweh’s throne, you must be spiritual in make-up, not fleshly. Yahweh is spirit, not flesh. In all things, Christ set the example first, so that you would know what was to be followed. If he became spirit again, then so must you. But, the fleshly plane and the spirit plane are closely tied; so, eventually they will be merged. This is because Christ will have made peace between sinful creation and his Father. It can then again be united as a whole.

Question: Why do those that not make it into the Kingdom prior to Armageddon have to be destroyed? Is it because they are judged to destruction at that very moment by Yahweh? Or is because they remained under the Judgment they chose not to get out from under via the Ransom Sacrifice?

Answer: If Yahweh has already judged us as all being dead in sin, then Armageddon is merely the instrument that is carrying out the sentence that was judged against Mankind long ago. It is not a new Judgment. It is the fulfillment of Yahweh’s decree upon sinful Mankind that did not choose to come out from under sin and be brought back into Yahweh’s family of obedient servants of His creation. John 3:16 “For God loved the world in this way: He gave His One and Only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.” Here, it reveals Yahweh opened a way through His undeserved Kindness so that the offspring of secondary sin could have the chance of eternal life through the Sacrifice. 1 John 4:9-10 “God’s love was revealed among us in this way: God sent His One and Only Son into the world so that we might live through Him. Love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” Yahweh sent Christ. We didn’t ask for him to come. It was done that way because Yahweh has love for His creation. He loved us first, even while we had sinned against him, even though it was indirect sin. Adam and Eve, Satan and his angels, they sinned directly, not indirectly. That’s what made it possible - our indirect secondary inherited sin, to come out from under the sin. Christ is perfect, so he traded his perfect life for the lives of the inherited sinners of Adam and Eve. He could not atone for Adam and Eve because they too had been perfect; but we were born into imperfection, and it permitted him to take that sin away if we exercise faith in him and Yahweh. A proprietary sacrifice had to be someone that rated above sin; someone perfect in order to take away our own sin. The Word, Jesus Christ filled the bill for that transaction to be valid in Yahweh’s eyes. But the Sin still had to die, so Christ had to die with it on the Cross. But, he had not sinned himself, so there was no merit for keeping him in the death state, and thus he was resurrected. In likeness, you are all resurrected from the death of sin. But what about those that are not? Are they being judged over again? Or, are they simply remaining under the old Judgment that goes with those that refuse to accept their sins being applied to the Torture Stake of Christ’s death? The answer is found at John 3:36. “The one who believes in the Son has eternal life, but the one who refuses to believe in the Son will not see life; instead, the wrath of God remains on him.” If they fail to accept the Truth, for that’s what believing in the Son requires, they remain under the original Judgment of Yahweh, which brings forth His Wrath at the Judgment of Armageddon.

Question: What will happen to the planet earth after Armageddon? Will Yahweh totally destroy this planet sometime in the future? And if He saves it, who will benefit?

Answer: There are many scriptures that tell us what will happen when Christ’s Kingdom comes into fruition. The answer is that the Earth itself will remain because it says “You established the Earth, and it stands firm”. What that means is that while it may change, it will remain. The Scriptures also say that “the Heavens will be on fire and dissolve and the elements will melt with heat”. The Heavens represent the Spirit Realm and that is the point in which the light will expand and the physical and spiritual realms will combine into one and when the veil will be fully lifted. In Revelation it says that the “first Heaven and first Earth had passed away” meaning they’d changed. Come together to form a new one. Even the animals will be changed because it says “He will make a covenant for them with the wild animals, the birds of the sky and the creatures that crawl on the ground and shatter bow, sword and weapons of war and enable the people to rest securely. The cow and the bear will graze, their young ones will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like an ox. An infant will play beside the cobra’s pit, and a toddler will put his hand into a snake’s den.” What this means is that animals will not harm one another, or us harm them or they us and there will be no need for weaponry or war. Because it says that the wicked will be removed, they will not benefit. All wicked will be removed from the Earth. This is the plan originally intended for all of creation. In the future, the things that have happened over the last 6,000 years will serve as a warning not to sin. Sin, is the breaking of Yahweh’s Law. To remain perfect, you do as Christ did when in Heaven, and then on Earth as a human – you must follow Yahweh’s Law. That’s all it takes to remain in perfection once you pass through the Light.
Question: Will those who were Raptured be able to become human again?

Answer: Yes, you will be able to. After Christ’s Millennium begins, you will learn all of Yahweh’s Laws, and you will be able to transform to flesh at will. The Spiritual Earth will be merged with the Physical Earth. In addition, Satan and his demons will remain imprisoned for 1,000 years during the Millennium. After that, and something he will be used for, he and the rest of his cohorts will be put to eternal death. That’s far off in the future though. First the Orange Plane will be sealed during that thousand years. Here are some scriptures that concern what’s just been said: “Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven with the key to the abyss and a great chain in his hand. He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for 1,000 years. He threw him into the abyss, closed it, and put a seal on it so that he would no longer deceive the nations until the 1,000 years were completed. After that, he must be released for a short time.” Revelation 20:1-3 (HCSB)

This happens at Armageddon when he is bound in the Orange Plane. “When the 1,000 years are completed, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle. Their number is like the sand of the sea. They came up over the surface of the earth and surrounded the encampment of the saints, the beloved city. Then fire came down from heaven and consumed them. The Devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet are, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” Revelation 20:7-10 (HCSB) You know this occurs long after Armageddon, because the “beast and false prophet” that are in the present scheme of things are shown to be in the Orange Plane at that time. It is a final test to see if you all hold true to Yahweh when Christ subjects himself back to his Father after you have all been counseled. This is covered at two Scriptures: Isaiah 9:6 “For a child will be born for us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on His shoulders. He will be name Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.” And, 1 Corinthians 15:28 “And when everything is subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who subjected everything to Him, so that God may be all in all.” He does that, because you will be in subjection of Yahweh at that time. The Ransom Sacrifice can no longer save you if you willfully break Yahweh’s Laws.

All Roads Do Not Lead to God

2 Timothy 4:3 “For a time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will accumulate teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear something new.”

In today’s society, where political correctness has replaced truth, the myth of all religions leading to God has become more and more acceptable. In fact, if you suggest otherwise it actually makes people angry. As pointed out in the above scripture, many people simply will not tolerate it. But the truth of the matter is that this is a myth. If all religions led to God, it wouldn’t have been written at Matthew 7:14, How narrow is the gate and difficult the road that leads to life, and few find it.”

In the book of Exodus, Moses played an integral part in freeing the Jews from slavery from the Egyptians, who worshiped other gods. So, logically speaking, if every religion led to God, there would be no need of anyone to be freed or saved.

At John 8:31-32 it is written, “So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, you really are My disciples. You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

In today’s day and age, like the Jews in the book of Exodus, we again find ourselves surrounded by people who worship other gods, or, if they worship Yahweh, the Almighty God as Christians, they have been spoon fed falsehoods mixed with truth by the Shepherds that lead them. Many are also under the impression that if they are just a good person, they will go to heaven while others, like the Jehovah’s Witnesses, believe that only a mere 144,000 will make it to heaven.

In a past blog, I wrote about how things will soon change and why our message is so important. I again find myself reiterating this because with each day that passes our message becomes more and more urgent.

Very soon, there will come a time when things will get so bad here on earth as we continue through the Tribulation, that religious communities will be turned on and houses of worship will be under attack by those turning on them. It will be then, more than ever, that the myth of all religions leading to God will rear its ugly head.

We have been given examples of how to stand steadfast in our faith in the face of adversity and those who wish to harm or kill our physical vessels (bodies). These examples extend all throughout the scriptures and not only in the New Testament. Christ, gave the more prominent example in how he suffered and died for our sins, but his disciples also went on to give examples as they were faced with floggings, jail, and eventually their own deaths for what they steadfastly believed.

That’s why it is so important to know, understand and believe with every fiber of our being that not all religions lead to God. And, when the time comes, we must stand with Father and Christ in truth and voice Christ as King even if it means the death of our physical vessels. If we do not stand firm in faith even in the threat of death, we will lose out in the hope of eternal life.

Is Once Saved Always Saved?

Once Saved Always Saved is a fallacy. If Once Saved Always Saved was true, then there would be no need for us to walk the Narrow path. There would be no need to follow the Scriptures either because we would have already received our Salvation simply by accepting Christ into our hearts just one time. If I was “Saved” last week and murdered a person this week it would be of no consequence because I am exempt having been “Saved” the week before and there would be no need to repent for that vile sin.

The truth is that Christ died on the cross to balance the scales because we were born into Secondary sin. This is different from Willful Sin. Being born into Secondary sin is what makes us all sinners. It’s Secondary sin because Adam and Eve committed original sin and we are all of Adam and Eve’s line. It is always possible for us to willfully sin because we are all given Free Will. That’s why it takes endurance to walk the narrow path. To follow the Commandments and Christ’s teachings to the best of our ability and to repent when we know we have failed. The Narrow Path is just what it says, Narrow. And it’s hard to stay on it. By the Word becoming Jesus Christ and his unselfish willingness to take on Mankind’s sin as a relief from spiritual death from being born into secondary sin was a turning of Yahweh’s wrath from those that put faith in the Sacrifice. It was the undeserved kindness that Yahweh was presenting to all of Mankind. All that was necessary was to accept the truth of the living Word – Christ Jesus into their hearts because it was he that balanced the scales of righteousness and absolved us of secondary sin.

But accepting Christ is only the beginning of the catalyst of his Holy Spirit’s positive energy to help bring people to salvation. Accepting Christ into our hearts is only part of what is required. Because meanwhile Satan has been permitted to test us and he aims to get us to willfully sin in order to determine if we are worthy of Salvation and that is why it takes constant work and effort and endurance on our part to walk that Narrow Path. If Once Saved Always Saved is true, then why allow us to be tested if we cannot fail? This is WHY it says at Matthew 19:24 “Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God." That is WHY that in addition to an acceptance of Christ into our hearts, it also requires cultivating a good heart condition in order to obtain Salvation. That is also why it says at Proverbs 4:23 Above all else guard your heart, because it is the source of life. It’s both an acceptance of Christ AND a good heart that will enable us to obtain salvation and ETERNAL LIFE. It’s through both of these things that we are deemed righteous in the Father’s eyes.

Now, let’s look at some Scriptures to back this up:

Matthew 24:13 But the one who endures to the end will be delivered.

So what happens to those who believe Once Saved Always Saved if they don't endure to the end? Are they delivered anyway? “Delivered” in Matthew 24:13 is literal. Those who endure will be delivered into Christ’s Kingdom

Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible to renew to repentance those who were once enlightened, who tasted the heavenly gift, became companions with the Holy Spirit, tasted God's good word and the powers of the coming age, and who have fallen away, because, to their own harm, they are recrucifying the Son of God and holding Him up to contempt.

This explains how it’s possible to be enlightened, to accept Christ into our hearts, to become companions with the Holy Spirit and have tasted God’s good word and STILL fall away through willful sin.

Hebrews 10:36-39 For you need endurance, so that after you have done God's will, you may receive what was promised. For in yet a very little while, the Coming One will come and not delay. But My righteous one will live by faith; and if he draws back, My soul has no pleasure in him. But we are not those who draw back and are destroyed, but those who have faith and obtain life.

This says it all in the first four words of the verse. We need endurance in order to be saved. The righteous will live by faith but if they “draw back”, in other words, if they fall away through willful sin, or draw away willfully they are deemed lost and will be destroyed. It’s those who endure and have faith will obtain eternal life and Salvation.

1 Corinthians 9:27 Instead, I discipline my body and bring it under strict control, so that after preaching to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

Discipline is part of endurance. Endurance takes discipline. Paul was aware that because he had free will, he could fall away at anytime and that he could be disqualified and lose his salvation should he fall away via willful sin.

Philippians 2:12 So then, my dear friends, just as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now even more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

If Once saved Always Saved, there’s no need for “fear and trembling”. It’s because our salvation CAN be lost that we “work out our own salvation with fear and trembling.”

This, my friends, is why Once Saved Always Saved is a fallacy. Yes, we were Saved from spiritual death of being born into Secondary sin by Christ’s willingness to sacrifice his perfect life for us so that we may live; but in addition to accepting Christ, it takes endurance and the cultivation of a good heart by which we will be judged in order to obtain salvation.

A Message to All Ex and Current JW's

Why is this Message Directed to the Jehovah’s Witnesses?

In this dying world full of religious organizations, there is but ONE religious organization that is a close kin to Yahweh’s truth. They are the Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Archangel Michael has said that they are not considered unworthy. In fact, they are so faithful to Yahweh and Christ (even though they use the name Jehovah, which is the other pronunciation of Father’s name) that the first Rapture will be an eye opener for them. We pray that it is and that those who belong to the Jehovah’s Witnesses conform in accurate knowledge to being a part of the second and final Rapture of Father’s faithful from this planet.

However, what we would like to see is the Jehovah’s Witnesses accepting TRUTH even before the first Rapture occurs…and there’s not much time left. This is the reason for this Special Edition Newsletter. To inform, via reasoning with the scriptures, the truths of some of the misinterpretations of the Scriptures that they have been taught.

The authorized Shepherd of the Jehovah’s Witnesses was chosen to help get Truth out to mankind at one time; but Christ warned that the Shepherd had better be doing what was supposed to be done when he arrived for the inspection in these last days. Because they have misinterpreted much of the Word’s true meaning, they have been in the dark on much of what Yahweh meant. The Shepherd over the Jehovah’s Witnesses became corrupt, but the Jehovah’s Witnesses did not become corrupt intentionally.

If a Jehovah’s Witness does not conform to what the Watchtower says the Scriptures mean, they are disfellowshipped as renegades of that truth. They are currently in BONDAGE to a corrupt Shepherd in the SAME way that the Israelites were in slavery in Egypt. Yahweh’s intent is to free them by signs and by reasoning out what they have been misled on in the Word. They are under a hard and oppressive yoke of their governing Shepherd and this is not Yahweh’s Way. Yahweh wishes for the yoke to be broken away and for the Jehovah’s Witnesses to be freed from this bondage.

This article and the messages contained within is specifically directed to the Jehovah’s Witnesses. I will be touching only on their beliefs which are not accurate and reasoning via the scriptures as to why this is so. This message is delivered out of love and compassion and it is our heartfelt prayer for all who read it, Jehovah’s Witness or not, that their eyes and hearts and minds are open to receiving the valuable counsel which is being imparted here today. The following are taken directly from the Jehovah’s Witnesses website under the section that outlines their beliefs.


The NWT Bible

The New World Translation Bible was originally translated from the old scrolls, but the Watchtower Society began to alter each new printing, changing words to conform to their beliefs. It is no longer a valid copy in Yahweh’s eyes, of the original meanings conveyed in the Word. All Scriptures referenced in this and all editions of the Light of Life Ministry Newsletter are taken from the Holman Christian Standard Bible.

Misinterpretation #1

Only a little flock of 144,000 go to heaven to rule with Christ & they are born again as spiritual sons of God
In order to understand this portion, I must explain how the Spirit Realm works. The Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that no ghosts exist and that all spirits are demons. Let’s take a look at this using the Scriptures in order to decipher the Truth. If what the Jehovah’s Witnesses believe is true, where is the proof that all spirits are demons and no ghosts exist?

“or the living know that they will die, but the dead don’t know anything. There is no longer a reward for them because the memory of them is forgotten. Ecclesiastes 9:5

“Whatever your hands find to do, do with [all] your strength, because there is no work, planning, knowledge, or wisdom in Sheol where you are going.”. Ecclesiastes 9:10

This applied before the Ransom Sacrifice. If you’re born in Christ, you will be raised up at death. It is merely a transition. In fact, there are many spirits that fell in under the Ransom Sacrifice that died before Christ’s time. It was a covenant that covers all of Mankind. Where religions like the Jehovah’s Witnesses get off tract, is that they think Man was still intended to live in perfection on the Earth as humans. But Satan altered that Divine Plan when he lied to the first human pair. The Ransom Sacrifice put things back on track; except that the Heavenly life was introduced into the picture. Satan and his dark forces are the ones that Ecclesiastes 9:5 and 9:10 would apply to now. They’re the ones with their necks on the chopping block - not Mankind. We have a Savior that covers all of Mankind. The fallen angels are the ones that are still on the outs with the Creator. Christ did not sacrifice his life for the angels that rebelled.

At the Book of Luke 4:33-34: “In the synagogue there was a man with a spirit, an unclean demon, and he shouted with a loud voice: ‘Ah! What have we to do with you, Jesus you Nazarene? Did you come to destroy us? I know exactly who you are, the Holy One of God.”

Although Satan and his forces consider the Creator and Christ their enemy, they do not consider themselves equal in power. They know all life stems from the Creator. Satan wanted to be a god, but one of lesser power, because he knows the Creator is all powerful. Well, he got his wish, but not exactly what he wanted. He ended up in a war that he cannot win. He enticed and pulled other angels into this mess with him. It’s a terrible thing to know that your Creator wants to kill you someday in the future. But that’s what these fallen children of Almighty God are faced with every day of their lives, in a spiritual prison as far as they’re concerned. Their outlook is not just bleak, it is totally without hope. Revelations 20:7-10 sums it up.

“When the 1,000 years are completed, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle. Their number is like the sand of the sea. They came up over the surface of the earth and surrounded the encampment of the saints, the beloved city. Then fire came down from heaven and consumed them. The Devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet are, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.”

It is a hopeless War for Satan and those angels if the Creator does not repeal the judgment. Imprisonment in the Orange Plane for eternity would be better than all out destruction. At least they would be alive. That’s just my view on it.

Now, in addition to Angels and Demons existing in the Spirit Realm there are also Converts and Holy Ghosts (not to be confused with Yahweh’s Holy Spirit/Active Force). A “Convert” is a ghost that passed over with “white collar” sins. They are not tagged for apprehension, but they are denied access to entering the Light. They must attend the edge of Light House of Worship and make atonement for a time. Since they do not fall under being vile sinners at the time of transition, they commit their sins as a ghost. Not all “white collar” ghosts become converts. The ones that do are so named because they converted over to Satan’s way of thinking. They also tempt other ghosts that have not yet passed through the Light in an effort to convert them to their way of thinking.

Eventually, they will all be declared negative energy. But in the interim, they are permitted to try and persuade other ghosts to come over to Satan’s side. They are one of the key elements that keep many ghosts from entering the upper planes that have passed over to the other side. They lie and say that it is to be feared; that you cannot come back if you pass through the light; that the Creator is evil, and Satan is really good. The Converts are just as bad as Satan and his demons, because they seek confederates by lying about the Truth, and the Converts will not let go of the negative energy that is a mix in their makeup.

People don’t know that the term “Crossed” over, refers to Christ on the Cross. “Crossed Over” in itself is referring to those that make transition over the Cross. You have to go through the Light, which is symbolic of going over the cross of Christ for Salvation and sanctification of his Sacrifice for Mankind. Transition is not really considered “Crossed Over.” That is not termed over there unless you pass through the Light. Holy Ghosts have crossed over. Converts are merely in the Transition stage.

The term “crossed over” should not be used instead of “transition” for those mortals that “pass over” (which is what the Holy Ghosts refer to as mortals that make transition to the other side. That term is used in connection with the Biblical “Passover” meaning: Passover to the presence of Heaven, but not yet Sanctified (the passing through the Light accomplishes that. It is Baptism by symbolic fire). So, that means that all people that have not yet gone through the Light are in a stage of Transition.

A Convert is different from a ghost that has not heard the Truth. To become a Convert, you are in trouble and cannot enter the Light until you atone. It is an infraction that did not warrant being spiritually tagged. So, that ghost goes to the Edge of Light and begins being counseled on the Truth. They reject it. Not wanting to be under Sovereign Law. That keeps them from entry to the Light, until they change their thinking - if they ever do. At this stage, they are semi-positive/negative energy. A mix. They are free to leave back through the Azmon Barrier (a barrier around the earth made up of Azmon Order Angels), or stay on the upper planes; but they are limited where they can go. They also must abide by the Rules of the War, regardless which side they’ve chosen to be on. By knowing the Truth, but declining to come under Sovereign Law in passing through the Light, they are then declared converts. But many ghosts are not converts, even though they have not passed through the Light. It’s because they have never been counseled yet. They do not go on the upper planes. They see the Azmon Barrier, and the Converts tell many of them that that is the blockade you are faced with once you go through the Light. The Holy Ghosts tell them otherwise; but many ghosts refuse to believe them. They stay down here. Eventually, all of those ghosts will be forced to make a decision, or they will be declared negative energy, just like the Converts will be.

When you think of a Convert, what do you think of? Someone nice? They weren’t nice enough to get through the Light without counseling. They were borderlines that have done something during their lives that was in need of being understood as bad, and understood that it was a sin that the Creator saw as grave, but not grave enough to land them in a dark realm. Once these ghosts realize that they must bend to the Creator and his Son Christ, they sometimes do not want to give up the idea of what they think is okay for them to do. If Satan wins they can do as they please under his limited rule. That sounds appealing to many ghosts that are opposed to Sovereign Holy Rule. They never lived it on Earth, so why should they now? Especially if there’s a possibility Satan can win this war. Those pull away. At that point, they are told that they must learn the Rules of the war, abide by them, or be declared Negative Energy and be placed into a dark realm. They learn the Rules. Then they seek to help Satan win; but, they cannot associate with the demons, because they are primarily enticing other ghosts not to enter the Light, or to leave the detention plane.

As to all the reasons they have chosen to remain outside Yahweh’s Ladder of Holy Ghosts, they are varied. It goes back to free will and dragging baggage of your past life with you when you pass over. That’s why if you put on the new personality of Christ now, you are not burdened with that hill to climb if you go there by transition at death instead of the Rapture.

Another reason some ghosts become Converts, is because the Spirit Realm appears to be a big playground. They quickly learn under counseling that when they enter the Light, they will become perfect. Then they must become a member of one of the 144,000 Holy Ghost Orders and help in the War against Satan and his demons. They are also warned that if they sin, they are cast out as negative energy, just like Satan and his demons were. The fall from perfection is one you cannot come back from. There’s no place to go but down. Yahweh will not accept you back if you fall from that status. That’s why he will not offer forgiveness to Satan or his demons. But to date (2005), no Holy Ghost has ever been ousted. They have all remained faithful.

Contrary to the Jehovah’s Witnesses belief, the 144,000 does not refer to a little flock of 144,000 go to heaven to rule with Christ. It refers to the 144,000 orders of Holy Ghosts who exist within the Spirit Realm.
Revelation 7:4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 sealed from every tribe of the sons of Israel:

Revelation 14:1 [The Lamb and the 14,000] Then I looked, and there on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with Him were 144,000 who had His name and His Father’s name written on their foreheads.

Revelation 14:3 They sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders, but no one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.

The 144,000 Holy Ghost orders are already sealed because they have passed over and crossed over into Yahweh’s light and they are in service to Father and Christ. They are on Mount Zion, in the Spirit Realm – which is where Mount Zion exists. They have already been redeemed.

To compound the fact that this is a false teaching, I must point out that in knowing that Yahweh is a fair and righteous God, why would only 144,000 from all of creation be permitted to rule with Christ? Of all the millions that currently inhabit the earth, not to mention those who have already made the transition from death to spiritual life, how would that possibly be fair? Christ himself said that Salvation was open to everyone, Jew and Gentile alike. Those who walk in His Ways and believe, who accept Him as their Savior and Redeemer have an equal chance at obtaining the Kingdom Promise of one day living in Christ's Kingdom and the opportunity of obtaining Eternal Life.

Misinterpretation #2
The human soul ceases to exist at death
& Hell is mankind’s common grave


Because the Jehovah’s Witnesses, like so many others, have no understanding of how the Spirit Realm works and who and what exists within it, they have been misled to believe mistranslations within the Scriptures. The truth is that ALL life has a soul. Everything living that emanates from the Creator has a soul. All things return to the Creator in the form of energy. He has the power over all energies in creation. He can reanimate whomever or whatever he wishes.

“But after the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet. So great fear fell on those who saw them.” Revelation 11:11

All things created on this planet by the Word for the Creator have souls. This is pointed out in Genesis 1:21-24: “So God created the large sea-creatures and every living creature that moves and swarms in the water, according to their kinds. [He also created] every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. So God blessed them, “Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the waters of the seas, and let the birds multiply on the earth.” Evening came, and then morning: the fifth day. Then God said, “Let the earth produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that crawl, and the wildlife of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so.”

Luke 21:19 informs that by endurance on our part we will acquire our souls. Ecclesiastes 12:7 reveals that the soul leaves the body and returns to the Creator who is in the Heavens. Psalms 16:10 reveals that our trust in Christ not to leave our soul in eternal death. We should not become fearful of those that can kill the body but cannot kill our soul.

In Matthew 10:28 says, “Don’t fear those who kill the body but are not able to kill the soul; rather, fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.” and Luke 21:19 says that by endurance on our part we will acquire our lives.

We humans think in terms of what we see, hear and smell on your physical plane of existence. Yet our plane is merely a framework to contain our physical containers. All living things on the physical plane are in containers. When the container is used up, the spirit energy within that container returns to where it originally came from.
Where do you think everything in existence came from? Where did you and all things in creation originate from? Where do you think all things are returning to? They return to where they originally came from. The physical Earth itself is a container. All things belong to Yahweh, our Creator. All life originates from Him. All life has souls that belong to Him. All of creation belongs to Him. Acts 4:24 states that He made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all things in them. He is the King for eternity.

“But the Lord is the true God; He is the living God and eternal King. The earth quakes at his wrath, and the nations cannot endure His rage.” Jeremiah 10:10

Matthew 10:29-30 reveals that some souls are of more value to Yahweh than others. “Aren’t two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s consent. But even the hairs of your head have all been counted.”

But He knows even when a sparrow’s soul has left its physical body and returned. Yet, He places a higher value on human souls. Everything has its place in creation. He created all things for a purpose. An animal, nor an insect can worship Him. They are of lesser value in His eyes, but they are nonetheless part of creation. And from Jesus’ own words at the prescribed Scripture, he notes that Yahweh knows even when those of a lesser value have departed the physical plane for the return home. It is because He owns all of creation. You, me, all of us, we are here because of His Will. It is a kindness on His part that any of us exist. When you kill, you are killing something that belongs to Him. But you are permitted to kill under certain circumstances. You can kill in self-defense. You can kill because the lower creation, that of insects are acting as pests. You can kill an animal or a human if they are trying to physically harm you or someone else. He gives you the right to protect your life and that of others. It is the wanting of killing for no reason that He will call you into account. Judge your own actions in all that you do, for He certainly will call an accounting if you are in error of judgment.

Does Yahweh take note of the lower creations? The animal kingdom is used to illustrate things. Does this not in itself point to the fact that He recognizes all of His creations?

“The form of [each of] their faces was that of a man, and each of their four had the face of a lion on the right, the face of an ox on the left, and the face of an eagle. [That is what] their faces [were like]. Their wings were spread upward; each had two [wings] touching that of another and two wings covering its body” Ezekiel 1:10-11
“Also before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the middle and around the throne were four living creatures covered with eyes in front and in back. The first living creature was like a lion; the second living creature was like a calf; the third living creature had a face like a man; and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle.” Revelation 4:6-7

Animals have been used to represent wild beast-like ruling powers that oppress people. This illustration typified by animals is because the animal kingdom does not worship Him due to lesser intelligence. Yahweh is pointing out through the illustration that the ruling powers lack the same intelligence. But they lack it due to the Negative Energy they have cultivated from His arch enemy, Satan the Devil.

Even an insect as small as an ant is in His arrangement of things. The ants are called “a people” from the Hebrew ‘am meaning in Proverbs, just as Joel referred to the locusts as “a nation.” In Joel 1:6 He says it has the teeth of a lion, the fangs of a lioness. Here Yahweh illustrates with other animals to make His point what kind of damage this nation of locust can do under His direction. In Proverbs 6:8 He directs us to the ant. He explains how the ant exists. He gives divine knowledge into one of His smaller creations. They live in colonies and are industrious with the instinctive wisdom He has endowed them with. But what you should note is that Yahweh takes note of even that tiny creation of His. It is because it too belongs to Him and has its place in creation. Only when they become a pest is it alright to exterminate those that cause problems. Otherwise, you are killing something that does not belong to you. Proverbs 30:24-31 speaks of the lower creations of life. All have a place in creation. He considers them all extremely wise. He endowed them with that wisdom.”

So, just to reiterate, the soul is an extension of Yahweh’s (source of) energy (the Active Force) and it’s only our intelligence that sets us apart from the animal and plant kingdom. When the container the soul is stored in dies, the soul returns to its original place. And the example of the ants - that is not to say they have intelligence like us. We were created in Yahweh’s image. That means we possess His attributes. The Ants and other insects, as well as the animal kingdom possess instinctive wisdom provided by the Creator. The wisdom of the Ant for example, is not intelligent reasoning like we humans and ghosts, and angels possess. It simply results from endowed instincts the insects were given for survival and adaptation of the different environments they live in. Ants work off scent for paths they cut to the mounds. Their existence is just an instinctive wisdom. They help in the cycle of life on this planet, just as all things do. Maggots help to rid the earth of dead things, as do vultures. All are part of the cycle of life and death on the physical plane and getting rid of the used up containers. But, we are superior in intelligence, which is what Yahweh intended that we be.

The common grave is that of those that pass over in “common” of having no real knowledge of the Truth. When they do pass over, they are then counseled on the truth and given the option of either accepting it or rejecting it. Hell is the passing over or through from a physical death to a spiritual life. Whereas Christ spent time in hell, that was literal for him, because he had to die a complete death. But, he received the keys of death and resurrection for all of mankind’s offspring. The only one’s excluded were those in judgments, which is born out in piecing the jigsaw puzzle of the Word together. To remain in hell, one must be out of Yahweh’s memory for eternity. This is referred to as going out the exit.

Misinterpretation #3
Hope for the dead is resurrection


The Jehovah’s Witnesses do not comprehend the use of the word “Resurrection”. Its true meaning is that man was dead in his trespasses until the sacrificial death of Christ, and His resurrection. Christ died in exchange for all of Mankind. When you die and pass over you are given the opportunity, via free will, to either accept or refuse the truth that is counseled to you. While the human vessel is dead, the spirit remains alive and this is because of Christ’s Sacrifice and his Resurrection. However, in order to remain alive for Eternity, one must make it to the Kingdom Rule of the Millennium. This means accepting the truth that is counseled to you, agreeing to abide by Yahweh’s Laws and becoming a member of Father’s family. For those who refuse to join Father’s family once they have passed over, they are not worthy. In the meantime they are like the demons who are awaiting their own judgment.

2 Peter 2:4 “For if God didn’t spare the angels who sinned, but threw them down into Tartarus and delivered them to be kept in chains of darkness until judgment;”

Jude 1:6 “and He has kept, with eternal chains in darkness for the judgment of the great day, angels who did not keep their own position but deserted their proper dwelling.”

If you are given no light from Yahweh, and you only think about tour crimes against Her, then you are alienated like the demons are; in dark realms. The demons are symbolically placed in chains of darkness – no light of understanding from Yahweh. Those who have passed over and are in literal dark realms are the other side of the coin of actually being imprisoned. They are unable to move beyond them as though they are chained and cut off from all light. They are like the demons because they are awaiting the Judgment and only a Judgment carries the eternal death penalty. Not only did Christ get the keys to death, but also a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.

Misinterpretation #4
Spiritism must be shunned


To sew their beliefs together, the Jehovah’s Witnesses are taught that some Scriptures are literally what they say and that others have other meanings than what is stated. The Truth is, is that the Word must blend together in unison. And, because the Watchtower Society must make things fit to keep their flock, they twist things around to sound as though they are receiving insight from Yahweh; but, they will not permit the Jehovah’s Witnesses to use their own God-given psychic abilities because they want to keep them blinded to the Truth. The Truth is evident in all of creation, for in all of creation is a record of all events that go on. Yet, they are not permitted to entertain the thought of using their God-given ability. This is sad, because in knowing that Yahweh is a fair and righteous God, you also know that He would not give an ability that wasn’t to be used. That wouldn’t be fair. It’s actually in HOW you use it that matters most. Christ set the model for us to follow. He meditated, fasted and had visions. The truth in regards to Spiritism is that it should not ALL be shunned. I’ll now explain why.

Some people of the Christian fundamentalist doctrine, including the Jehovah’s Witnesses, have been taught that ALL psychics and the supernatural are taboo to the Christian religion. There’s a good reason for the way some people comprehend this as valid in their belief, but is erroneous on their part. The Scriptures do not say that the supernatural is wrong – the people misinterpreting the scriptures do. Logically, when so much of the Bible is in fact supernatural, how could this be true? What the Scriptures are warning us about are psychics who work for Satan’s “team”. There are both good and bad on each side. If someone professes to be psychic, but doesn’t mention scriptures or the Creator - then they’re to be avoided because the information they are relaying is probably false. I’ll try to break it down for all of you so you can judge for yourselves.

The Book of Deuteronomy, Chapter 18, verses 10-12 are what many people base their views of psychics on. It says in part (I’ll quote what pertains to the subject),”There should not be found in you anyone …who employs divination, one who practices magic or anyone who looks for omens or a sorcerer, or one who binds others with a spell or anyone who consults a spirit medium or a professional foreteller of events or anyone who inquires of the dead. For everybody doing these things is something detestable to God.” Deuteronomy 18:10-12

Do those Scriptures apply to all modern day psychics; and, did they apply to all psychics in olden Bible days?

Before we make a judgment call, let’s look at another Holy Scripture found at Isaiah 8:19. After all, the Scriptures are accurate in what they say, so, we should use them as a guide, but, we need to understand them in the context they were given. The Scripture says, “When they say to you, “Consult the spirits of the dead and the spiritists who chirp and mutter,” shouldn’t a people consult their God? [Should they consult] the dead on behalf of the living?” Isaiah 8:19

You noted in the above Scripture that it spelled out the type of mediums to stay away from. They did what? “When they say to you, “Consult the spirits of the dead and the spiritists who chirp and mutter…” When you think of muttering, what comes to mind? Perhaps what comes to mind are things that shouldn’t be said or that are untrue? That was pointed out in the Scripture to differentiate from Satan’s mediums, and those that are not of satanic origin; the reason for that is because Satan gives his followers similar psychic abilities, so it was necessary to draw a line between the two different psychic groups that existed in those days. Those who “mutter” and who practice magic, sorcery and witchcraft are to be avoided because they are of satanic origin. That does NOT go for ALL psychics as God also has his own psychics. Remember what I said about both sides having humans working with them in the Spiritual War?

Even today, Satan’s demons imitate deceased people through the use of talking boards like the Ouija Board or similar devices. That’s why you always have to be on guard against the evil side of the psychic coin. To say that absolutely all psychics are evil, is to say that the apostles and Christ were evil; for they too were psychic. Christ being the most psychic of the group. Now how silly is that? We know they weren’t evil. And all psychics are not evil either. Then you have John that wrote the Book of Revelation. How do people think he got those Revelations? It was given to him through his psychic mind, as was done with all Bible writers that were inspired by the Creator to write what he imparted to them by spiritual means. How else do you think it was that God spoke to them?
This clearly shows that there were two different kinds of psychics in existence. There is the good and there is the evil. Just like the Spiritual War of good verses evil. There are two sides in everything; always two sides to a coin. The Creator’s Word informs us, ”Test everything. Hold on to the good...” 1 Thessalonians 5:21

So how can we make sure that there are good psychics as well as the bad ones pointed out in the Scriptures? And does the Bible tell of good psychics? Yes it does, and I’ll elaborate on that in a moment. First, let’s look again at the Bible writers. How did they get the messages they received in order to write what the Creator wanted us to know? Did it not come through their minds? If you don’t think so, please consider all Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work. As with all things the Creator has inspired, I’m in full agreement with that Scripture also. By using His Word, we can come to an understanding of the two different groups of psychics that have always existed. The Bible says, “Also, this is why we constantly thank God, because when you received the message about God that you heard from us, you welcomed it not as a human message, but as it truly is, the message of God, which also works effectively in you believers.” 1 Thessalonians 2:13

With further use of His inspired Word, I will try and help all of you to have a better understanding of this psychic issue before you make your judgment calls. If you believe in the Holy Bible, then you believe it was inspired by the Creator, and was not of human creativity of the mind’s imagination; it was indeed the inspired origination from Almighty God’s mind. So how did the men of the olden Bible days come to write the Creator’s thoughts? They were moved by the Creator’s spirit to write the Books of Scriptures we now reverend today. How did He move them with His spirit to do so? He did it through their minds. What does a psychic use to see or hear what’s on the other side? They do it through their minds. It’s no different today than it was back then. So, ask yourself: What is the gift behind the psychic’s power to see and hear what’s on the other side? It’s Holy Spirit. If you are a good psychic, it comes from the Creator’s side, not Satan’s.

“First of all, you should know this: no prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation, because no prophecy ever came by the will of man; instead, moved by the Holy Spirit, men spoke from God” 2 Peter 1:20-21
So, was Jesus a psychic or not? John stated, “Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I speak to you I do not speak on My own. The Father who lives in Me does His works.” John 14:10
Now that you’ve read that, who’s “work” was that that Jesus referred to? And, who was in “union” with the greatest psychic of all time? It was his Father, the Creator. So now, think back. What did 2 Peter 1:20-21 say? Who was “carried along by Holy Spirit”? It was not only Jesus, but those associated with him that received the Holy Spirit. So what were all of those people? They were psychics. If they had not been, they could not have been “carried along” in their minds by “Holy Spirit.” It’s that simple.

It’s been revealed that we are indeed surrounded by Holy Ghosts. Where did you think psychic ability comes from? Well it’s certainly not Satan. The book of 2 Peter explained in those Scriptures I cited where the power manifests itself from. It is from “Holy Spirit”. Again, we are surrounded by Holy Ghosts who are in fact Holy Spirits. That is where the power of all good psychics is imparted through from the Creator.

Still not convinced that there are good and bad psychics? Well, let’s look at some more Scriptures. Ephesians states in part, “For our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world powers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens.” Ephesians 6:12

Why do we have this fight against these spiritual forces of evil? Because they not only use thought injection and physical harassment, but they have their own class of psychics. They are the bad ones. Timothy states, “The Spirit explicitly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith paying attention to deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons.” Timothy 4:1

So, did you think that Jesus and his followers were not really psychic, when you read in that Scripture that Satan’s demons inspire false “misleading inspired utterances,” from people that have infiltrated the Christian religious community? Think about it. How could they mislead unless they were in a preaching position? Yet, they receive what through their minds? “Inspired utterances” that are “misleading”. By having that ability or gift from Satan, they are tuned into the Dark Empire as his own breed of psychics. They are the bad ones. They have existed since the olden Bible days; this is pointed out in Exodus where it states in part, “The magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians as well as on all the Egyptians.” Exodus 9:11

Those magic-practicing priests were part of the olden Bible days psychics that Satan utilized by imparting power to them from the dark side of his angelic abilities. It did not come from Holy Spirit. In Isaiah it states in part, “Egypt’s spirit will be disturbed within it, and I will frustrate its plans. Then they will seek idols, ghosts, spirits of the dead, and spiritists.” Isaiah 19:3

Here, you plainly see that Satan’s psychics are made up of “mediums and spiritists” but, do you still think all psychics fall under Satan’s power? If you do, then where did Moses get his power that was more powerful than the magic-practicing priests of Satan’s? Moses himself was psychic. All people associated with writing the Bible and doing the Creator’s work were psychic. Jesus earth mother was psychic. Mary’s earth husband was psychic. He was contacted by one of the Creator’s angel’s concerning Mary’s immaculate pregnancy. There are both good and bad psychics. If you believe in the Creator’s inspired Scriptures, but you still think all psychics are from Satan’s side, then please consider this: “After this I will pour out My Spirit on all humanity; then your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your old men will have dreams, and your young men will see visions. I will even pour out My Spirit on the male and female slaves in those days.” Joel 2:28-29

Here are some Scriptural references to different visions, trances and dreams that are mentioned in the Bible:

VISIONS

Acts 10:3 “At about three in the afternoon he distinctly saw in a vision an angel of God who came in and said to him, “Cornelius!”

Genesis 46:2 “That night God spoke to Israel in a vision: “Jacob, Jacob!” He said. And Jacob replied, “Here I am.”
Joel 2:28 “After this I will pour out My Spirit on all humanity; then your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your old men will have dreams, and your young men will see visions.”

Acts 2:1-4, 11, 15-17 “When the day of Pentecost had arrived, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like that of a violent rushing wind came from heaven, and it filled the whole house where they were staying. And tongues, like flames of fire that were divided, appeared to them and rested on each one of them. Then they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different languages, as the Spirit gave them ability for speech. Cretans and Arabswe hear them speaking in our own languages the magnificent acts of God. For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, since it’s only nine in the morning. On the contrary, this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel: And it will be in the last days, says God, that I will pour out My Spirit on all humanity; then your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.”

Israel’s false prophets were condemned because the visions did not come from Yahweh at Leviticus 19:31 “Do not turn to mediums or consult spiritists, or you will be defiled by them; I am the LORD your God.” To be “defiled by them” is to be misled by those that serve the Dragon, (Dawn, Lucifer, The Serpent, Satan the Devil). This does not include those psychics that serve Yahweh. There is a difference as the above Scriptures have pointed out. It is a balance of who is receiving and revealing inspired psychic visions and dreams. If the psychic experience is not from the Holy side, then there is only one other side left that it could be coming from. So, you should follow the advice given at: 1 Timothy 4:1-2 “Now the Spirit explicitly says that in the latter times some will depart from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons, through the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared.”

TRANCES

Acts 22:17-18 “After I came back to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple complex, I went into a visionary state and saw Him telling me, ‘Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about Me!’

DREAMS

Are dreams also considered taboo? Many psychics have them. Consider the following Scripture: Matthew 2:13 “After they were gone, an angel of the Lord suddenly appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Get up! Take the child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you. For Herod is about to search for the child to destroy Him.”

So you see, it all depends on which side of the coin the psychic experience is coming from. If it was wrong to have a psychic dream, Joseph would not have had that dream.

So how do you know if the information is coming from Yahweh or Satan’s side? 1 John 4:2-3 tells us how. “This is how you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God. But every spirit who does not confess Jesus is not from God...”

If they do not confess the truth, then you know they are working on Satan’s side of the war because they are in a spiritual war to lead people away from the Truth, not to it. If what the spirit reveals to a psychic, or through a psychic to other listeners, if it does not jive with what is written in the Holy Scriptures, then you know the psychic is working with the wrong side; unless of course, you’re for Satan’s side. Since the Scriptures cited deals with incoming communications from spirits, that alone should tell you that communication with the proper side is permissible. In order to communicate with a spirit, you have to be psychic. If it was wrong to use your inherent abilities to perceive the Spirit Realm communications, then you would not have been endowed with those attributes. Why would Yahweh give you an ability, and then say you are not to use it? If that had been the case, the inspired writings of His Holy Books - the Word, would not have come into existence. For I tell you, those mortal human writers were indeed psychic in order to receive communications from the Spirit Realm where the spirits exist. Please note how the Books of the Word were given:

2 Peter 1:20, 21 “First of all, you should know this: no prophecy of Scripture comes from one’s own interpretation, because no prophecy ever came by the will of man; instead, moved by the Holy Spirit, men spoke from God.”
Being moved by Holy Spirit reveals that the mind had to be able to receive the incoming messages; that’s the mind of a psychic person.

Acts 7:51-53 “You stiff-necked people with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are always resisting the Holy Spirit; as your forefathers did, so do you. Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? They even killed those who announced beforehand the coming of the Righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become. You received the law under the direction of angels and yet have not kept it.”

Yahweh’s divine inspiration is carried out by His faithful Deputies.

Hebrews 2:2-4 “For if the message spoken through angels was legally binding, and every transgression and disobedience received a just punishment, how will we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was first spoken by the Lord and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him. At the same time, God also testified by signs and wonders, various miracles, and distributions [of gifts] from the Holy Spirit according to His will.”
Is our message to you legally binding? “How will we escape if we neglect such a great salvation?” You have been given this message. When you complete it, you free will is your own choice.

Even Jesus Christ was accused of being on Satan’s side. Matthew 12:24 “When the Pharisees heard this, they said, “The man drives out demons only by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.”

Because Jesus had powers they could not understand, they correlated that he was on the opposing side of Yahweh. Christ is the Greatest Psychic that ever lived. Let’s back up two verses: Matthew 12:22-23 “Then a demon-possessed man who was blind and unable to speak was brought to Him. He healed him, so that the man could both speak and see. And all the crowds were astounded and said, “Perhaps this is the Son of David!” The crowd of people recognized that Jesus was from Yahweh, not from the Devil.

The Bible itself clearly reveals that two types of psychic people exist; the good, and the bad. In it’s most simplistic view, just as there are good and bad people it would make sense that there are good and bad psychics as well.
Bottom line, being psychic is a God given gift. It’s not the same thing as magic or sorcery or witchcraft. This being said, psychics are part of God’s creation and they are part of his plan. It’s up to the individual who possesses these psychic gifts as to how he or she wishes to use them - for good or for evil - using yet another God given gift of free will. People will always fear that which they do not understand and they will always make judgments without understanding the full truth, but to claim that psychics and the supernatural are taboo to Christianity is simply a broad statement and sheer ignorance made by people who do not understand or have misinterpreted the Word.

Misinterpretation #5
Christ died on a stake, not a cross


This is quite simply a lie. When a person passes over and accepts Truth is when they are permitted to cross over into Yahweh’s light. The cross is the symbol of more than just passing over from his death to life – it is a crossing over. The cross is like that of a plus sign (+). It also represents a cross road. Do you veer off to either side or do you go up to Yahweh? Where did Christ ultimately go because of obedience and death he manifested? He went up to His Father in heaven. But, how many make it to the middle of the cross and don’t go on up? They veer off, and so they never reach Yahweh even if they pass over because they will never cross over past the tee of the crosses divide. One must move up past that of being nailed and become a saint in Yahweh’s eyes – standing on our own merit.

The Word from Yahweh says to not despise prophecies, but to test all things and hold on to what is good (1 Thessalonians 5:20-21). But, how do you come to an accurate knowledge to make sure of all things so that you can hold fast of what is fine? And what did the Word mean in regards to “prophecies” in those Scriptures?
Dictionary: prophecy >noun (pl. prophecies) 1. a prediction. 2. the faculty of practice of prophesying. – ORIGIN Greek proph teia, from proph t s ‘spokesman’.

It was prophesied that Jesus Christ would come forth into this world and die on a torture stake. Do you believe that occurred just like it was foretold ahead of time? If you do, then “hold on to” that, because it is indeed good. But, is there more to the torture stake than merely his having been nailed to it? Does it matter whether we believe the torture stake was a Cross, or was an upright stake? It should, because all things in the Word are representative of symbolic things that Yahweh wants us to be enlightened to in order to fully understand what He has revealed through His Word to mankind. In coming to an enlightened understanding, we are able to see how the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle come together as we insert them into Yahweh’s Divine Plan that is brought through His wisdom of divine revelation. How do we find that wisdom so we can test out what is and what isn't truthful?

2 Timothy 3:16 "All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work." This Scripture gives the foundation for seeking out and locating that wisdom and divine knowledge imparted by Father's Spirit.
Under divine inspiration from Father, the Word was delivered through the minds of the faithful writers assigned to convey Father's messages. "All Scripture is inspired by God" and is what? "and is profitable for teaching..." This is exactly what I am presently doing with all of you. It does not say part of the Word is profitable; it says all Scripture which makes up the Word as a whole is profitable for teaching. So, what does "profitable" mean?

Dictionary: "profit >noun 1 a financial gain, especially the difference between an initial outlay and the subsequent amount earned. 2 advantage; benefit. >verb (profited, profiting) benefit, especially financially. -DERIVATIVES profitless >adjective. -ORIGIN Latin profectus 'progress, profit', from proficere 'to advance'."

It means that the Word is a profit to those that progress in attaining an additional share of wisdom imparted by Father concerning His Divine Plan.

Those same Scriptures also impart "for rebuking..." And what does rebuking mean?

Dictionary: "rebuke >verb criticize or reprimand sharply. >noun a sharp criticism.
-ORIGIN Old French rebuker 'beat down'."

So, those that are wiser in Father's Divine Plan from what the Word teaches are to "reprimand sharply" those that would lead you astray. But why would any Shepherd want to lead anyone astray? It could be a number of reasons.

One being that they do not fully comprehend the Word's symbolic meanings, and in doing so create a false view of what the Word is revealing as a whole. Or, they know the accurate Truth, but are seeking to alter the Word's meaning so as to sew up a faith for their own followers.

But why would any Shepherd do that, knowing they are misconstruing the Word's meaning - telling lies?

The answer is GREED and POWER.

Satan set the pattern for such behavior long ago. He was greedy because he coveted what was not his and he wanted to have power over what was not his. Satan knew the truth of Father, yet he lied in an effort to gain confederates, and to sew them to his faith of deception that he created.

Is there any difference in those humans that willingly lie to keep their misguided flocks? Knowing the Truth is not a defense to telling outright lies and deceiving people; Satan proved that point, and his human confederates prove that point by following in Satan's footsteps.

Next, the Word goes on to say "for correcting," What is correcting?

Dictionary: "correction >noun 1 the action or process of correcting. 2 a change that rectifies an error or inaccuracy. -DERIVATIVES correctional >adjective (chiefly N. Amer.)."

So, I'm going to correct the error on a point of inaccuracy by those that claim to be spokesmen for Father's Divine Plan as detailed within His Word given to all of us. It will be a "change that" should "rectify" their fostered "error of inaccuracy" concerning what they have asserted as being truth to their followers. By doing that, I will be doing my part in exposing the LIE, and in "training in righteousness," those of you that seek to be people of Yahweh and Christ "may be complete, "equipped for every good work." It is not my stewardship to teach/impart to anyone but Father's flock; but those that read this will either have their eyes opened, or they will continue to blindly follow the blind teachers; the choice is of course one of free will. Father does not force anyone to accept His Word, or to be a member of His holy family.

The Cross of Salvation is more than an impalement stake. In addition to it representing the Ransom: 1 Timothy 2:5, 6 "For there is one God and one mediator between God and man, a man, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself—a ransom for all, a testimony at the proper time".

He was Jesus Christ, and then became Christ Jesus, because he had paid the Ransom. There's a difference. As Jesus, he was tested as the promised Anointed One. As Christ Jesus, he had successfully fulfilled his anointment by willing laying his perfect life down for ALL OF MANKIND; not just those that had faith in him - but for all of us. However, his Sacrifice was only held as being judicial in ransoming the offspring of Adam and Eve, and those not destroyed in Judicial Judgments previously brought upon individuals of Mankind.

The Word is clear that there were some that were undeserving of the Cross of Salvation. Adam and Eve could not be ransomed anymore than Satan and his angels, because they had been previously perfect in Father's eyes. You cannot Ransom a perfect life for those that were once perfect. There is no judicial sacrifice for those that were close to Father, and then defied His authority. They had been enlighten to the Truth and Sovereignty of Yahweh, and for them, the fall was permanent. Those that serve as examples of Judicial punishment, like the ones that perished at the global flood, and some that were Judged - like Adam and Eve and Cain prior to the flood, or Sodom and Gomorrah, and those that were singled out by Father as godless people down through the historical accounts of the Word, they are out the EXIT of Father's memory when they die - meaning they will never live again - they died a literal death of both fleshly vessel and spiritual.

Psalms 146: 4 "When his breath leaves him, he returns to the ground; on that day his plans die."

That is Holman's version of the Word; but what of other translations? The TRUTH is still evident: The New International Version: "When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing."

How do we know this Scripture makes reference to those that are out the EXIT? Because his spirit departed, not to a passing over to the other realm, because - "their plans come to nothing." Outside the EXIT there is nothing, because outside of Yahweh is non existence. But what were their plans that came to nothing? Do you think it means the plans of their earthly life? Consider that any plan contrary to Father's Divine Plan is in opposition to His Will; so, even if it referred to an plan they sought on this side of the veil, it was in vain, because Father does not join other plans to His own.

Psalm 146:4 (New King James Version) "His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day his plans perish."

If that person were within Father's Divine Plan, he or she would not depart, but would pass over to the spirit realm; there, people lacking a full understanding of the TRUTH, who have not made plans that are contrary to Father's Will are given ample opportunity to join His family under counseling by His Holy Ghosts. But if the person is given opportunity and rejects the Truth, "And it shall be that every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people." This can occur before a death in the flesh, or even after passing over; it depends upon the amount of knowledge one possesses; with accurate knowledge comes responsibility: Acts 20:26, 27 "Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God."

The "whole counsel" in itself reveals there's more than meets the eye; you put yourself in a precarious position with Father while on this planet if you shun the complete Truth once you have learned it, and you fail to declare the Truth of the whole jigsaw puzzle that represents Father's counsel to Mankind. To do so, carries the penalty of the EXIT at your physical death. I'm not talking about criminals that do not know the Word - they have a punishment phase they go through, because the Cross of Salvation was meant for all of Mankind. I'm talking about those that intentionally mislead their flock to gain monetary benefit and power in the process while on this planet.

Psalm 6:5 "For in death there is no remembrance of You; In the grave who will give You thanks?"
They are simply sent into non existence in this reference. Out of Father's memory; the EXIT is the Lake of Fire that Satan and all of his confederates are soon to share. For them, it is a grave.

Dictionary: "grave1 >noun 1 a hole dug in the ground to receive a coffin or corpse. 2 (the grave) death. -PHRASES dig one's own grave do something foolish which causes one's downfall. turn in one's grave (of a dead person) be likely to have been angry or distressed about something had they been alive. -ORIGIN Old English."
"downfall." Satan's downfall leads to a grave of his own making. He dug his own pit of non redemption; Father created his pit of demise that leads to being stricken from His memory for reanimation after the final test has concluded. Before him and his angels get exited, there will be many that go outside Father's memory ahead of them.

Hebrews 10:26, 27 "For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries."

To have been under the Ransom Sacrifice, received the undeserved kindness, come to know the accurate truth, and then to act decidedly in committing sin after all just mentioned, there can be no further atonement for those that do so. So, where were they on the Cross of Salvation at the time they lost out on the hope of Salvation? They were at the cross-member of the Cross that held Christ's hands to the Cross. They go no farther than that; it was a cross road that led off to destruction; symbolically, their feet are still nailed to the sin that Christ bore through his body; but their hands were freed to make a choice; to live eternal, you are not to veer off the path that leads upward to Father. When Christ was resurrected, he went up; his impalement to the cross-member of the impalement torture stake was then no longer a hindrance to him. His feet were freed from the sin that had brought him on his mission; his arms never failed to form the "Y" while he was on the Cross of Salvation; that was for a purpose; it represented that Yahweh is the WAY out of sin - Upward to Father in His Wisdom and His kindness to save all those that can discern the Truth and abide within it.

So, if you doubt the validity of the torture stake having been an upright post with a transverse post attached, then you do not yet comprehend the meaning of the Cross in its symbolism in Father's enlightenment of the Word. All things coming from Father have symbolic meanings; whether it be water, fire, people, or even the Cross. To devaluate the Word by implying that Christ did not die as represented in the Word, is to devaluate the Sacrifice he made in Father's Great Name. In addition, the Cross was represented symbolically at: Numbers 32:5 "They said, "If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Don't make us cross the Jordan."

Each time, whether it was a crossing into the old Promised Land of the Israelites, or that of crossing the Red Sea, it was to typify the coming of the Jesus Christ that would be centered in the CROSS of Salvation. In the center, he would be noted as what? The WAY to Father. You cannot CROSS into the future Promised Land with out hitting the center mark of the TRUTH - which is Christ Jesus. He is the Living Word, and all must go through him to reach Father - just as he formed the "Y" on the Cross of Salvation as a Sign that you must move up and beyond the cross-member to reach Him, he was giving a symbolic message with his hands being staked in that position. To say he was impaled any other way is to try and invalidate Father's Word in both accurate knowledge of the writings, and His symbolic message meant for enlightenment.
