Top of Page THE AWAKENING 1 Corinthians 1:19 “For it is written: ‘I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.’” The twentieth century witnessed the unleashing of man’s ingenuity in such a remarkable way that life as it existed for thousands of years was radically changed forever. I could say, and not be too far off, that in the twentieth century, we, speaking of the human race, became of age. I have neither the desire nor the abilities to enumerate all the history, discoveries, and events that came together to make the twentieth century such a pivotal time in human history; from the industrial revolution to two world wars, to the splitting of the atom, and the space race that lead us into the technological age of cyber space, but I know that in all of this, God’s final plan for the human race was being intelligently crafted by divinity in accordance with what the prophets of old had foretold. Daniel 12:4 “But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” Nothing happens on the earth unless it is first released from heaven. It does not matter how wise and learned men of old were, or how dedicated to their crafts, or how many resources they had available to them, if it was sealed in heaven, all of their human endeavors did not suffice. After Jesus rose from the dead and was taken up to heaven, He took possession of a scroll that contained written things within and on the back, that had been sealed with seven seals. Revelation 5:3 “And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll, or to look at it.” It seems that only an immortal human of divine origin, one who could save and make other humans immortal like Himself, was qualified to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals, since its unveiling unleashes upon the human race the symphony of events that eventually propels God’s final judgments upon all human mortals. The first seal was loosed right after Jesus took possession of the scroll after arriving in heaven, it released the spirit of antichrist upon the world stage. The antichrist himself will not be revealed until that which hinders him from being revealed is removed. 2 Thessalonians 2:7-8 “For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work (the spirit of antichrist has already been released); only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one (the antichrist in person) will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming.” The second seal was loosed from heaven during the twentieth century and that is what brought about the second world war and the technological breakthroughs that ensued. Revelation 6:3-4 “When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, ‘Come and see.’ Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth (world war II), and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword (technology).” You can probably trace the origin of many, if not most, of the technological advancements of today to the events leading to and surrounding the second world war, for that is when the unveiling of the second seal took place, according to the divine plan. If we tie the first two seals together, we get the antichrist type leading the world into a colossal war that increases human knowledge to levels not even dreamed of by the preceding generation. Revelation 6:5-6 “When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, ‘Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, ‘A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.’” The results of the first two seals opened the door for a new world order, something that has been the unreachable dream of the elite world luminaries for centuries, but with this open door their dreams of a revived roman empire that rules the world has become a very possible reality. In order to facilitate a one world government, they need to have a one world economy, and to achieve that they need to implement a one world financial system that regulates the world economy; according to the golden rule, he who has the gold, makes the rules. Revelation 13:17 “And that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” We are in the midst of the unveiling of the third seal right now, it is taking place before our very eyes. All the pieces are falling rapidly into place awaiting the unveiling of the fourth seal that will feature a war over one fourth of the earth, the invasion of Israel by a northern confederacy. Israel is the last obstacle that stands between them, those who think they own the earth, and their dreams of declaring earth’s independence from the rule of God. It is all spiritual, since Satan was thrown out of heaven he has been looking for a place to call home; the earth belongs to the Lord, but man has been given dominion over it, the devil has duped, through the spirit of pride, those who think they can run the earth better than God, through the agency of human intelligence, for they truly think that they know better than God how to run the earth. 1 Corinthians 1:30 “But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption.” All the spirits know that if you are going to rule the world you have to do it through the agency of a human man, that is why the Word of God had to become flesh, in order to infuse into humanity’s mind the wisdom that comes from God, the wisdom that redeems, sets apart for God, and makes right with God those who choose allegiance with God. Revelation 13:2 “...The dragon gave him (a human being, the antichrist) his power, his throne, and great authority.” The spiritual battle that rages now in the heavens will be fought here on the earth by the human Son of God who is indwelled by the Spirit of the living God against the spirit of Satan, the dragon, that will one day be revealed in the human antichrist. It will be a one sided battle: Whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. This is the truth that brings the awakening, and it is what the first chapter of first Corinthians is all about, whose wisdom are you going to trust? 1 Corinthians 1:20 “Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?” How did God make foolishness out of the wisdom of this world? He told them ahead of time what was going to happen, when it was going to happen, and how it was going to happen. Nothing happened without His hand allowing it to happen first. These empty headed illustrators really think that they’ve actually thought of all these things and that they have created by the power of their own intellectual prowler. 1 Corinthians 1:21 “For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.” Imagine the simplicity of the message that was preached confounded the wisdom of the wise and brings to us an awakening to the revelation of what God is doing in our present time. 1 Corinthians 1:25-26 “Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called.” And here is the reason why God does it this way. 1 Corinthians 1:29 “That no flesh should glory in His presence.” I believe that we are now ready to experience the great spiritual awakening that the prophets of old predicted for the last days. Humanity has been sold a bill of goods that predicted that man’s salvation was going to come as the result of technological advances. Knowledge is power, in God’s case, knowledge of Him and of His Word brings liberty to those who live and practice His Word. Knowledge of the populace in the hands of the world gives the world the power to enslave the masses. Everything about us today is known to the government, and that knowledge has been used already to deprive many Americans of their constitutional rights. But the majority of that knowledge awaits for the restraining power to be removed, as prophesied by Paul, so that it can be used to coerce, intimidate, and blackmail law abiding citizens into conformance with their new world order. If you did not believe in the past that what had been foretold by the Word of God was possible, do you believe it now? Are you awake yet? Better hurry, there is not much time left.

Top of Page CREATURES OF THE FOURTH DIMENSION Ephesians 3:14-19 “For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height — to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” Have you ever wonder why God made us different than the angels? In the New International Version footnote for the word translated “family” it shows that it could also be translated as “fatherhood” since after all God is the creator and Father of all the celestial creatures as well as all the earthly creatures. Let us compare the two and see what it is that truly separates us humans from our heavenly counterparts. The first obvious difference is that we humans are mortals and that the angels are not, but that is not really true, for as far as God is concerned all humans are still alive to Him even after they die. Death to a human is separation from the physical realm and its dwellers, but not separation from God or the sovereignty over which He rules. When a human dies he/she is carried by the angels to one of two places: Heaven (light) which is the place from where God rules, or Hades (darkness) which is the place where incarcerated souls await the Day of God’s Final Judgment. But even Hades falls under God’s jurisdiction and all its dwellers and rulers are subject to God’s laws and decrees. 2 Corinthians 5:6-8 “So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home (physical realm) in the body we are absent from the Lord. For we walk by faith, not by sight. We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body (the physical realm) and to be present with the Lord (in the four dimensional spiritual realm called the kingdom of the heavenly lights. James 1:17).” There is still no difference between humans and angels in this matter concerning the fact that not all humans make it to the presence of the Lord in Heaven but rather many end up in Hades, for it is the same with the angels, not all of them are in God’s presence, for one third of them ended up in the Abyss as well. Jude 6 “And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode (the kingdom of the heavenly lights), He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day.” So if God’s celestial creatures share the same qualities of free will that we humans possess, and have the capacity to err the same as we do, then what makes us so different? I will make the case that it is the place and not the state of our similar natures that makes all the difference. The angelic creatures abide in a four dimensional spiritual realm while we humans occupy a three dimensional physical realm! All living humans can be redeemed from the errors of their way before they enter the fourth dimensional spiritual realm through death’s door, meanwhile those angelic creatures which erred in the fourth dimension can never be redeemed. You see time is the fourth dimension and we humans who are physically alive are bound to “the present” and have not yet entered the future eternity that awaits us all. That is what makes us redeemable, while the angelic creatures already abide in eternity and basically do not have any future left to them other than the one they have already chosen for themselves. Psalm 8:4-8 “What is (physical) man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen — even the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea that pass through the paths of the seas.” In the three dimensional realm that we occupy we are able to move forwards and backwards, side to side and up and down, but always within the confines of the present; past and future are always out of our human reach, that is the meaning of us being made a little lower than the angels (three is lower than four), for in the fourth dimension, past, present and future interact in a manner that is difficult for three dimensional dwellers to fully comprehend. Hebrews 13:8 “ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians was that they: may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height of the workings of this four dimensional realm since that is where our Lord lives and where we are going to be when we depart this physical realm. Unlike the angels who did not get a second chance when they erred, we humans are in training if you will, being prepared to attain a higher order of existence where we can freely operate in the realm of being the same yesterday, today, and forever. Ezekiel 28:14-16 “You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; you were on the holy mountain of God; you walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, till iniquity was found in you. By the abundance of your trading you became filled with violence within, and you sinned; therefore I cast you as a profane thing out of the mountain of God; and I destroyed you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the fiery stones.” From the fall of Lucifer we learn that the angelic creatures were created to occupy and operate in the four dimensional realm where past, present and future went back and forth in the midst of fiery stones and interacted as one unit. They were like us created in the image of God with free will, and as soon as they sinned they were cast out and barred from access to the knowledge of God’s plans for the future and were disabled from interfering with the past; since spiritual creatures cannot die, God destroyed their ability to operate in the midst of the fiery stones. Hebrews 12:28-29 “Therefore, since we are receiving a (four dimensional) kingdom which cannot be shaken (interfered with), let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.” After the glory of the Lord rested on Mount Sinai for six days, the Lord called Moses on the Sabbath to enter into the midst of the cloud on top of the mountain which looked to the Israelites as a consuming fire. The typology is clear, mortal men are bound by time present until they enter the Sabbath Day of Rest, then we will be able to move in the midst of the fiery stones that are at the center of time itself on the mountain of God where our God’s throne is in the fourth dimension. Exodus 24:16-18 “Now the glory of the LORD rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day He called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud. The sight of the glory of the LORD was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel. So Moses went into the midst of the cloud and went up into the mountain. And Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.” I believe Moses walked into the center of time itself, and from that four dimensional perspective he was able to see the entirety of man’s history as it unfolded from beginning to end, writing down only that which he was told to write as he gazed at the wonders of the panoramic view of the history of all mankind from creation to its final conclusion. Matthew 17:1-3 “Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.” Look a the similarities; this event took place after six days or in the seventh which symbolizes the Day of Rest, they were led to the top of the mountain just like Moses was, and the face of Jesus shone like the sun which looks like a bright consuming fire. What I believe happened here was that when Moses fifteen hundred years earlier, stood at the center of time itself and gaze at the future and was looking into the days of Jesus’ ministry, Jesus went up to the mountain and opened a porthole into the past that allowed three of His disciples to meet with Moses and Elijah, therefore transcending time and space. Jesus simply put, took His three disciples into the fourth dimension. Jesus was not showing off, He was teaching them! Luke 9:28 “Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.” Luke’s account differs from Mathew’s and Mark’s in that it does not say “after six days” but puts the emphasis on the number “eight” which is the number for new beginnings. Luke 9:30-31 “And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah, who appeared in glory and spoke of His decease (departure back into the fourth dimension) which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.” Because of the work that Jesus accomplished on the cross as He died, and His resurrection from the dead after the third day which is referred to as the firstfruits which implies a new beginning; there is now an open door into the fourth dimension that is available to all the saints who die to self and are raised with Christ. Hebrews 4:3 “For we who have believed do enter that rest…” Hebrews 4:10 “For he (the believer) who has entered His (Jesus) rest has himself also ceased (transcended) from his works (bondage to time) as God did from His (six days of creating).” Ephesians 1:17-20 “That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand (at the center of time it self) in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 2:4-6 “But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” What does it all mean? John 5:24 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.” Since death and decay are traits of the third dimension and life eternal is the gift offered in the fourth dimension, and we, by virtue of His grace have already entered life (passed from death), that simply says to me that we are now qualified to operate in the fourth dimension. Now here is another typology that will help us to put our trust in the veracity of God’s Word. Daniel 3:25 “Look! He answered, ‘I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.’” If you’ve read or heard the story of the three Hebrew children who refused to bow down before the golden image and how they were thrown into a fire that was made “seven times” hotter than usual, you might have missed the typology of this event. I believe the spiritual meaning of this historical event is that there are three Hebrew Prophets who were taken into the center of time (seven dispensations) itself by the Son of God, and were allowed to view human history in its entirety from beginning to end so that they could have an understanding of it, but only write about what they were told to write. These three Hebrew prophets were none other than Moses who brought to us the revelation of The Law, Paul who brought to us the revelation of The Gospel, and John who brought to us the revelation of The End of Time. This is what Scriptures tells us about the ministry of Moses: Numbers 12:6-8 “Then He said, ‘Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, make Myself known to him in a vision; I speak to him in a dream. Not so with My servant Moses; he is faithful in all My house (past, present and future: Remember that He is the same yesterday, today and forever, that’s where God lives). I speak with him face to face…’” This is what Scriptures tells us about the ministry of Paul: Galatians 1:11-12 “But I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me (Paul) is not according to man. For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ (the Son of God).” This is what Scriptures tells us about the ministry of John: Revelation 4:1 “After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me (John), saying, ‘Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.’” The spiritual meaning of all of this is that humans who dwell in this three dimensional realm have access into the fourth dimension as it has been clearly portrayed in Scripture. Which leads me to ask this question: Is this access into the fourth dimension available to all humans or just a privileged few? And what is the mechanism needed to achieve such a feat? Let’s look at the Scripture verses that I started with and change the emphasis to see if they answer the questions that I’ve just asked. Ephesians 3:14-19 “For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height — to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” Remember that the comprehension that Paul is praying about is that they may be able to understand the nature of the four dimensional spiritual realm (width and length and depth and height). And Paul’s prayer is that God would grant that ability to them the Ephesians, because it is available to all those who believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which includes all the saints. That clears up the first question; it is available to all the saints but not all humans. What about the mechanics of it? “To be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man.” To be strengthened means to be empowered and to increase in vigor (the revelation is progressive); might means ability that comes through His Spirit therefore the requirement to be born again saints who are born of the Spirit of God in the inner man (and is comprehensive towards), those who are born again through faith. That “Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.” What that means is that every born again believer has been empowered with the ability to increase in faith in the inner man through the revelation that the Holy Spirit gives to us as we place our beliefs in God’s Word; that’s what increases our faith. That brings us into what our motives ought to be when we operate in this new (to us) realm. “Being rooted and grounded in love.” John 14:22-23 “Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, ‘Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world (unbelievers)?’ Jesus answered and said to him, ‘If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home (fourth dimension) with him (in the inner man).’” Luke 17:21 “…For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you.” The right motives is the key, if our motives for operating in the fourth dimension are not rooted and grounded in God’s love nothing is going to happen! This part of the lesson is probably going to be the hardest one for me to explain, since I am still struggling to understand what the Scriptures are clearly teaching us, that we have been empowered with the abilities to transcend time and space. Job 23:8-12 “Look, I go forward, but He is not there, and backward, but I cannot perceive Him; when He works on the left hand, I cannot behold Him; when He turns to the right hand, I cannot see Him. But He knows the way that I take; when He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold. My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and not turned aside. I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food.” The difference between angels and humans is that the future of the angels is already set, while ours is not. From God’s perspective the lost angels are lost forever, the lost humans are not. Luke 19:10 “For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.” There has to be a good reason why God made us a little lower than the angels, according to Job it was this: “He has tested me” What did Job mean? What was he being tested for? In the context of the testing Job said that he was unable to perceive God within this three dimensional realm of back and forth, right and left and not knowing what his future was in God: Job 23:3 “Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, that I might come to His seat!” Job 23:17 “Because I was not cut off from the presence of darkness, and He did not hide deep darkness from my face.” This is what I believe: In order to operate successfully in the realm of being the same yesterday, today and forever, one must like Job: “I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food” Treasure God’s Word and the Spirit of Love above all else; let me explain: My actions here in the present always have consequences, good or bad; is called the law of sowing and reaping also known as cause and effect. I learn from my triumphs as well as my failures, that is what I am tested for here, where I have many second chances, since in the fourth dimension failure is not an option, so that I must pass the test here and have my ability to fail removed so that when I enter eternity, my new nature could never be changed again. 1 John 3:14 “We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.” Think with me a second, if I could witness first hand the consequences that my wrong actions would bring on another human being, would I do them any way? If I could witness the pain, feel the suffering and taste the bitter tears that my actions would cause another to suffer before I commit them, would I relent and do the right thing? Or would I satisfy my selfish desires and wrong others anyway? You know as well as I do that there are some who would do others wrong any way, because they love themselves more than those they hurt, or because the circumstances require it: “Is either them or me” It is in our human nature to be self-centered. That is why a new nature is required! John 3:3 “Jesus answered and said to him, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.’” Let’s try to imagine what it would be like to live in such an environment where we can have instant access to what the possible consequences of our actions would be before we did them. If everybody there would do what is best for everybody else, then there would be no more pain, no more suffering, no hate, no fear, no animosity, we would all live in perfect harmony. Revelation 21:3-4 “And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, ‘Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.’” Though we have already been qualified to operate in the four dimensional spiritual realm, it is through our actions in this third dimension that we are able to affect this present reality by infusing the qualities of the “age to come” into our surroundings. Sea, air, flesh and ground: “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen — even the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea that pass through the paths of the seas.” Adam and Eve were in Paradise and the dominion that they were given to rule over transcended time and space for it was a four- dimensional dominion. Genesis 1:26 “Then God said, ‘Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." However, there was one thing that they were lacking, they had to be clothed for they were both naked, they had to choose to be clothed in the inner man from either the fruit of the tree of life or from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. After they failed the test they were driven out of their four dimensional perch. Read the chapter titled First Adam’s Paradise Lost in my book Man’s Final Destiny for the details of how Adam and Eve failed to trust in God’s word: Posted here . John 17:1-5 “Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: ‘Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, as You have given Him authority over all flesh (physical three dimensional realm), that He should give eternal life (past, present and future life) to as many as You have given Him. And this is eternal life, that they may know You (remember how Job was unable to fully know God in the three dimensional realm), the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do. And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the (four dimensional) glory which I had with You before the world was.’” I conclude then that the first Adam was never able to fully enter into the dominion power for which God had originally created him, because of his inability to eat of the fruit of the Tree of Life. Therefore all humans were confined, because of Adam’s failure, to a three dimensional existence that excluded the physical eternal life of being the same yesterday, today and forever. I emphasize that Jesus the last Adam, did that which the first Adam was unable to do, that is; He divested Himself first of all of His previous glory and became naked, both literally on the cross and metaphorically in the life He lived confined to a three dimensional realm, and totally and completely trusted God’s Word, even to the point of becoming the sin bearer for all humanity and taking all those transgressions upon His body and nailing them to death, even death on the cross. Once He died He was left at the mercy of the One who made the Promise: Psalm 16:10 “For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.” What a wonderful God we serve! He demands complete trust to His Word, and then He, by example, show us that veracity and trustworthiness of God’s Word as He Himself submits to every single one of those precious Words. This is that which transcends; faith, hope and love, and the greatest is love. The past cannot separate us from God’s love, neither does the future; maybe the present? NO! Romans 8:38-39 “For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” What is the thing that limits you today my friend? Do you have a stained past? Is your present like a hopeless dark dungeon? How do you see your future? Is it bleak and unbearable? In an instant your history, past, present and future can be re-written! How can that be you may ask? When a sinner appears before the heavenly court and confesses all his/her sins before that court, the judgment is rendered instantly, he/she is found guilty and the penalty is death. But if Jesus is your advocate and the reason that you are confessing all your sins before God’s court, then the penalty for all of your sins is atoned for by the sacrifice that Jesus offered before God’s court in your behalf. So that the life that you now live is a brand new life, your past is in the cross and your future is in His glory, and your present is HIM. You may have to endure some pain, but it will not be your pain it will be His pain, and what an honor it is to share in His pain! You may have to suffer some shame, but it will not be your shame it will be His shame that He endured on the cross, oh what a privilege it is to share in that shame! You may be limited somehow, but it will be for the sake of His unlimited love that is demonstrated through those who continuously die to self so that others may see the limitless Christ to whom we belong. Whether we know it or not all the saints already transcend time and space, for we are all seated at the right hand of God with Jesus: “Made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” But dominion is something that has to be executed, is an action taken by the saints on behalf of humanity. That is why we are commanded to bind on earth that which has already been bound in heaven, and to loose on earth that which has already been loosed in heaven. We can by our prayers and actions influence the course of history in accordance with God’s destiny. Psalm 78:41 “Yes, again and again they tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel.” My aim in this writing is that we dare to expand our thinking and not limit our King and His power that He is so willingly eager to demonstrate on behalf of those who dare to believe in Him and in the power of His resurrection. Oh Lord You are beautiful, Your face is all I see, for when Your eyes are on this child Your grace abounds to me! More Teachings Found Here: Deliverance Ministry End Times Teachings Other Teachings

Top of Page SPIRITUAL ENCOUNTERS Song of Solomon 3:1-2 “By night on my bed I sought the one I love; I sought him, but I did not find him. I will rise now, I said, and go about the city; in the streets and in the squares I will seek the one I love. I sought him but I did not find him.” There are two kinds of spiritual encounters between man and God, as far as our relationship with God’s plan for our lives is concerned. First is the kind where God reveals Himself to us, by way of an angel, personally, or in some supernatural manner, when we are not actively seeking Him. Such was the case with Saul of Tarsus, an encounter with God was the last thing on his mind as he traveled on the road to Damascus. The second form of an encounter with God is when we are actively seeking Him and some way or another He let’s us find Him. I believe the book of Song of Solomon has a wealth of information into the how to, of seeking a personal encounter with God. Let us look at the two different types of encounters and see if we can learn from this present lesson how to find favor with the Lord, and encounter His presence in a way that brings a life changing experience to us that results in our betterment. In the first type of encounter, God reveals Himself to a person for a specific purpose or reason. In Paul’s case it was for his conversion and called to future ministry, in other cases it could be for the protection of an individual, maybe to keep them from crossing a line from which there is no return. My first encounter with the physical manifestation of the presence of God was to keep me from making such a mistake. I was in a small boat fleeing the communist regime in Cuba in the Florida straights in August 1965, I brought two friends with me who were hiding under the small bow of the boat. We were hit by a strong tempest (chuvasco) and swamped by towering waves to the point that I thought the end of my life was at hand, as we were verily making it through that frontal line of menacing clouds in the middle of the night, we were almost struck by a cargo ship that was sailing in the middle of the storm. After seeing our SOS the cargo ship stopped to recue us, thinking they had hit us, we’ve maneuvered to the side of the cargo ship, by the hanged net they laid on the side of the ship in order for us to climb aboard the ship and out of the tempestuous sea. As my hand took hold of the net, an invisible man that was standing next to me told me to ask where they were going, I looked up to those who were waiting for us at the top of the net and asked them where were they going, something that you normally would not do when being rescued, it was a natural reaction to a supernatural prompting, the immediate answer came with an oriental accent; we are going to Havana! As if the net was charged with thousands of volts of electricity, my hand let go of it, and we sailed away as fast and as far as we could from that Chinese cargo ship that was headed to Havana, where we would have certainly been delivered into one of Castro’s many prisons. By next afternoon we encountered an island named Cay Sal and were spotted by a US navy plane that pointed us to that island, as soon as we knew that we were going to make it, the invisible man, an angel from the Lord, left, and in that instance all three of us looked at each other and wondered out loud, how is it that we were behaving as if there were four of us, when there is only three? All three of us knew he was there, we all felt his presence, I heard his voice, and we knew immediately when he left, yet we never saw him, neither did we comprehend his presence until after he departed. That evening a British warship picked us up from the island and took us to Port Everglades Florida, where we were welcome as refugees. I often pondered why did God do that miracle when none of us were even saved, and the only conclusion that I can come up with is that, had it not been for His sovereign intervention that night we would not have been able to fulfill God’s plan and destiny for our lives. I am sure that all of us will one day find out the countless times when the Lord intervened on our behalf, for the battles that God’s angels fight for us is a constant one. In the first type of encounter God is making sure that His plans for the individual’s life is not altered, so that the nature of the encounter is more functional in nature than personal, not so in the second type of encounter, for this encounter is very personal in nature, where God responds to those who seek to have a deeper, more personal relationship with Him. By night on my bed, I sought the one I love. It is not easy to position ourselves properly in order to have the opportunity of having the experience of a personal encounter with the Lord, such experiences are just as precious as they are rare, but our desire of them speaks volumes of how real and deep our love for Him is. What is it that is on our minds when we suddenly awake in the middle of the night, before the cares of this life come rushing in? The Shulamite, a type for the church in this story, wakes up longing for a personal encounter with the love of her life and then she decides to do something about it; she says, I will rise now and go about the city, obviously she is looking for Him. This is a sign for those of us who personally desire to have a life changing encounter with the Lord deep within our hearts, if suddenly we wake up in the middle of the night longing for Him, in response to that longing, we should get up and seek Him fervently in prayer. In the streets and in the squares, I will seek the one I love. The word for streets in the Hebrew has the idea of as run over something, almost like a bridge, from its root word that means to run after or over to something. The idea behind the word for streets is that of, we have to cross over, in our case it would imply that we have to cross over into the spiritual realm as we seek an encounter with our Lord, by putting all our physical limitations and suppositions behind us. The word translated squares literally means broad way or broad place, from its root word that means to broaden or to make wide. To seek the encounter with the One we love we must be willing to cross over into the spiritual realm, and in order to do this we have to widen or broaden our perspective of how the spiritual realm operates. We have to be willing to negate the perceived limitations that hinder us from entering into His presence and not be dissuaded from apparent failures. As the Shulamite says twice in our opening verses, I sought him, but I did not find him. Song of Solomon 3:3 “The watchman who go about the city found me; I said, ‘Have you seen the one I love?’” If the city is symbolic of the spiritual realm where she went searching for the one she loves, then the watchman is symbolic of the angels that police the spiritual realm, notice how she handled her encounter with them: Have you seen the one I love? She was not hesitant at all, she was determined in her commitment to find the one she loved. Song of Solomon 3:4 “Scarcely had I passed by them, when I found the one I love. I held him and would not let him go, until I had brought him to the house of my mother, and into the chamber (room) of her who conceived me.” This is an interesting insight into what drove her desire for an encounter with the one she loved. In the natural she was saying I want you to meet my mother, if you are in the dating stage of your life I do not have to tell you what that means, for you know that she means business once she asks you to meet her mother, what that means is that she is definitely serious about your relationship with her. But from the spiritual aspect, I looked at the words here that state, the chamber of her who conceived me. I think that this is a reference to the inner rooms of the heart, meaning that her goal all along was for this spiritual encounter to bring her Savior into the inner chambers of her heart, where spiritual conception takes place, she wanted to experience her loved one in a way that she had never experienced him before. Proverbs 20:27 “The spirit of a man is the lamp of the Lord, searching all the inner depths (literally: inner rooms of the belly) of his heart.” The difference then, between our first and second types of spiritual encounter is, that in the first type angels or watchers intervene on behalf of those whose destiny is threaten by the mischievousness of the devil against them. In the second type of encounter there is nothing that the angels can do, for in this type of encounter the human heart is the issue, and only God is qualified to deal with the issues of the heart, and He will never intrude into the human heart unless He is first, personally invited, and second, we make special preparations within us that will make Him feel welcome. Step number one: Song of Solomon 4:1 “Behold, you are fair, my love! Behold you are fair! You have dove’s eyes behind your veil (the curtain that covers the door that leads into our hearts). Your hair (covering) is like a flock of goats, going down from Mount Gilead.” The dove is the symbol for the Holy Spirit, and the veil represents the door to the inner rooms of our hearts, typified by the curtain that covers the entrance to the Holy of Holies in God’s Tabernacle. That means that we have to be born again, born of the Spirit of God if we want to experience this type of encounter with Jesus deep within our hearts, because that is where the Holy Spirit resides after we are born again, deep within our hearts. Step number two: Our covering, symbolized by the hair, has to be in place by being a part of the flock, the church, which is the body of Christ. Some believers are not properly covered because their pastors are in direct disobedience to the Word of God, hence they are not properly covered by their fellowship, which makes it a lot more difficult for them to have an experience of true intimacy with the Lord, especially when their leaders are proclaiming a different gospel that portrays another Jesus and a different spirit which they have not received. 2 Corinthians 11:4 “For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it (but the Lord will not).” In these matters we have to be very careful, for no church is perfect, but if you cannot tell the difference between your church and the world, then all your striving for a spiritual encounter with the real Jesus may be for naught. But remember this, never leave a fellowship to which you were called unless the Lord Himself calls you out of it first, and make sure that He confirms it before you act, that way you will not lose your true covering no matter where He leads you, for He will be your covering and your protection wherever you go. Step number three: Song of Solomon 4:2 “Your teeth are like a flock of shorn sheep which have come up from the washing, every one of which bears twins, and none is barren (bereaved) among them.” Our teeth represent the condition of the human soul, which is designed to reflect the Fruit of the Spirit of love who lives within us, which are: Love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, kindness, faithfulness, meekness, and self-control, for against these there is no law. We need to make sure that none of these qualities are lacking within us, for they adorn our inner man and make us to be more attractive to the Lord. Since we love and desire intimacy with Him we should desire to be more presentable: Which have come up from the washing. After all no body likes bad breath. 1 Peter 1:9 “Receiving the end (goal) of your faith—the salvation of your souls.” We can find many allegories in the book of Song of Solomon to help prepare us for a life changing experience with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. But let us make sure that our desire for intimacy always flows out of a grateful heart that knows the hell from which He has delivered us, having a sincere desire for true intimacy with Him should trump everything else. The results of such a spiritual encounter should be that of us becoming more fruitful in every aspect of both our spiritual and physical walk with Him. Amen!

- Intuitive Knowledge in the Age of Reason | HoFM
Top of Page Top of Page INTUITIVE KNOWLEDEGE IN THE AGE OF REASON Written by Pastor Marcos Marrero Published on 3/6/22 Ecclesiastes 12:11 “The words of the wise are like goads, and the words of scholars are like well-driven nails, given by one Shepherd.” The wisdom of Learned Knowledge which is what our present day understanding of the universe is based on, has been declared foolishness by God Himself. 1 Corinthians 1:20 “Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God MADE FOOLISH the wisdom of this world?” The fundamental flaw of Learned Knowledge is that it is based on the things that are visible, which always leads to a scientific dead end when trying to piece together the origin and purpose for the creation of our universe, by basing it on the things which are seen. Proverbs 16:25 “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.” Now the Word of God teaches us the proper way of how to understand the why and when of the creation itself, if we just follow the basic foundational principles upon which God created everything that He made; and for that we need to look in the right place: the Word of God. 2 Corinthians 4:18 “While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are TEMPORARY (changing, passing away), but the things which are not seen are ETERNAL (complete).” The creation itself reflects the nature of the Creator, in order to understand the unseen parts of the creation we need to obtain the ability to decipher the spiritual language of the Creator. Psalm 19:1-3 “The heavens DECLARE the glory of God; and the firmament SHOWS His handiwork. Day unto day UTTERS speech, and night unto night REVEALS knowledge. THERE IS NO SPEECH NOR LANGUAGE WHERE THEIR VOICE IS NOT HEARD.” The capitals in all the verses quoted added by me for emphasis. Day and night God continuously declares and shows us His glory as He utters and reveals knowledge through the creation itself. And all this vital information is made available to all who seek it, and it does not matter what our learned language is. So, what is this mysterious language that God speaks and that we can all learn from? I call it Intuitive Knowledge! 1 Thessalonians 5:23 “Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you COMPLETELY; and may your whole SPIRIT, SOUL, and BODY be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Not everyone may know this, but we all speak three different languages. Our bodies speak the language of signs, mannerisms and gestures: known as Body Language. Today we have Body Language in which experts appear on TV shows tell us what others are saying by their expressions. Our soul is the seat of our mind and understanding, and expresses itself through what I refer to earlier as Learned Knowledge, which is the language or languages that we learned to speak as we were growing up during our lifetime . I believe that the language that our spirits speak is what I call Intuitive Knowledge. Intuition is very hard to comprehend with our natural or soul way of thinking. I used to think of it as hints or hunches that came to us by way of chance. But now I am totally convinced that Intuitive Knowledge is the language that the spirit-man was created to speak and understand. It is a language that has an alphabet and the means to conjugate and express—that is to Declare, Show, Utter and Reveal knowledge and understanding at a level we could never dream of. This is what I am going to try and teach in the next few pages, the language that our spirit-man craves for. Why should a Christian endeavor to learn the spiritual language of Intuitive Knowledge? James 1:5-8 “If any of you lacks WISDOM, let him ask of God, who GIVES TO ALL liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in FAITH, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a DOUBLE-MINDED MAN, unstable in all his ways.” Wisdom and faith are both spiritual and we have to be single minded in order to get them. To be double-minded (two souls) means that the spirit and the soul are not on the same page. So faith comes by hearing the Word of God that comes through the spirit-man and convinces the soul. Psalm 19:7 “The law of the Lord is perfect, CONVERTING the soul; the testimony of the Lord is SURE (trustworthy), making wise the SIMPLE (humble).” The soul-man looks at the structure—the creation—from the outside, while the spirit-man looks at the infrastructure—or the inner workings of the creation—from the inside. The soul-man learns through words and the spirit-man understands through numbers. And when they come together as one, we receive revelation directly from our Redeemer, as given by One Shepherd. Psalm 19:14 “Let the WORDS (Learned Knowledge) of my mouth and MEDITATION (Intuition) of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.” I believe that the Intuitive Knowledge language of the spirit-man is a mathematical language and that it has a numerical alphabet if you will. What makes this mathematical language superior to the Learned Knowledge language of the soul-man is that numbers never lose anything in the translation. It does not matter our language or traditions or customs, mathematical principles never change. God created us to communicate with Him in all three levels: spirit, soul and body. Because of the rebellion at the tower of Babel, God confused the one language that they all spoke and therefore they were divided and scattered around the post diluvium world. However, on the Day of Pentecost the Holy Spirit fell on one hundred and twenty souls and their spiritual language was restored, but their ability to understand it naturally was restricted. 1 Corinthians 2:14 “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are SPIRITUALLY discerned.” Without the Spirit of God we cannot be partakers of the gift of Intuitive Knowledge, but for those of us who have been born of the Spirit of God, we have received and are qualified to learn from this great blessing of having the spiritual discernment provided by Intuitive Knowledge. 1 Corinthians 2:6-7 “However, we speak WISDOM among those who are MATURE, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to NOTHING (temporary and are passing). But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the HIDDEN (intuitive) WISDOM WHICH GOD ORDAINED before the ages for our GLORY (understanding).” With all these Scriptures in mind and with the Holy Spirit’s help let us see if we can find some of the hidden wisdom which God ordained for our times. If numbers are a language—a means of communication—then they have to have a structure or a numerical alphabet of some sort. I propose that the ten digits in our hands comprise the entirety of this numerical alphabet. Written in our bodies so that we never forget them, for we have been created with ten fingers. The numbers one through nine all represent the revelation of God’s creation; for they all have value within themselves. Therefore, God uses Psalm 19 or one through nine as the place for this revelation; also, in Psalm 119 He shows us the perfection of the Hebrew alphabet, and in Psalm 139 about His perfect foreknowledge of everything that He created through the numbers 1-9. A Zero has no value by itself, so it represents everything that God created including man. If you place a Zero on the right side of any of the digits that have value, that number is magnified. If you take the number One and add a Zero to its right side it combines to make the number Ten. There are four perfect numbers that theologians have found: The number Three is defined as Divine Perfection, the number Seven as Spiritual Perfection, the number Ten as Ordinal Perfection and the number Twelve is assigned the title of Governmental Perfection. In the number Ten, the One and the Zero, we learn the law of divine order. Following mathematical principles if you put the Zero after the One you have the number Ten, which indicates increase in value. If you put the Zero in front of the One indicates a decrease in value. The first of the Ten Commandments teaches us not to put anything before the One God. As the Creator God must always be first, in order for the creatures that He created to increase. When Lucifer said that he would be like God, as in no need of God; instantly he was demoted and became the devil, which means supreme spirit of evil, and Satan, which means adversary; he became the embodiment of everything that God is not. We were created by God and for God, but we have a choice, not choosing to put God first ROBS us of our potential for His divine favor. John 10:10 “The thief does not come except to STEAL (robs us), and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may HAVE (God adds) life, and that they may have it more ABUNDANTLY (He not only adds life but He also multiplies it as well).” The Lord puts this verse and chapter in the number Ten for a double emphasis. Satan is a predator; the law of predatory behavior Divides and Takes away. God on the other hand, as Creator has the power to Add and to Multiply. To those who put God first in their lives God adds and multiplies life and life in abundance. The devil comes as a thief; he divides and takes way. So Ordinal Perfection teaches that to be blessed we have to put God first in all areas of our lives. Romans 10:9-10 “9) That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10) For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” The number Nine (verse nine) represents God’s completed work of redemption; that of Jesus dying on the cross and Him rising from the dead, the number Ten (verse ten) represents those who by confession of faith place themselves in the proper Ordinal Perfection that God created. So that to divide and to take away and addition and multiplication are a form of a numerical conjugation system that denotes the separation between one and the other. In some cases between good and evil, right and wrong, love and hate, blessings and curses. In other cases adding and or multiplying to express the hidden or spiritual meaning of the verses confirmed by the numerical values assigned to them as we have seen in some of the verses already. Now let us look at the numbers One through Nine. Deuteronomy 6:4-5 “4) Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is ONE! 5) You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” In verse five we are commanded to love God—that is, put the number One first—spirit, soul and body. All of us humans were created in God’s image. In verse four our God is One God and three persons marking the meaning of the number Three as Divine Perfection. The Four and the Five add to Nine which speaks of God’s completeness and fullness which are represented by the value in the numbers in this numerical alphabet of One through Nine. Six is the number for man. 1 John 5:7 “For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and THESE THREE ARE ONE.” NKJV Let us deal with the number One first: If God was one God and one person only there would be no creation, there would not even be the necessity for a language, for there would be no one else for God to speak with. If God was one God and two persons, He would be able to talk to Himself for the second person would be the Word, but there would still be no creation. It is only when we count the Third Person of the trinity, the Holy Spirit—that we see the Divine Perfection at work with their ability to have a relationship within themselves and with their own created creatures. We see in the creation narrative that God spoke and energy—the Word of God is energy—came out of His mouth and the Holy Spirit gave shape to that which God spoke into existence. In the numeric’s of Psalm 19 verses 1, 2 and 3, where God reveals the hidden and visible things of the creation, we see that the number One plus Two more verses = Three verses in total: to signal that, Divine Perfection is behind the Ones who created our universe and are revealing all the LAWS THAT GOVERN it, therefore the number Twelve—one and two in that order—which is the number of Governmental Perfection is putting its stamp on it as well. Psalm 19:1, 4 “1) The HEAVENS declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. 4) Their LINE (sound) has gone out through all the EARTH, and their words to the end of the WORLD...” Now, the number Four represents the physical creation and intertwines with the first perfect number, the number Three—Divine Perfection—and together Three and Four they form the metaphysical in the number Seven—Spiritual Perfection: Heaven and earth together. As God’s judgment upon the earth begins in the final days, we see this interaction between the numbers Three and the number Four. Revelation 7:1 “After these things I saw FOUR angels standing at the FOUR corners of the earth, holding the FOUR winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree.” The number Four appearing Three times in the first verse of chapter Seven: Four plus Three = Seven—Spiritual Perfection ready to be poured out upon a rebellious physical world. Psalm 19:7 “The law of the Lord is (physically and spiritually) PERFECT…” Open your hand without the thumb and hold your four fingers up and you will see three empty spaces between them. The human soul sees the four fingers for they are physically visible. But our spirit-man sees perfection in the Three spaces between them, for there are Three that testify in heaven—the spiritual realm—and they are the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit. So that if we follow the instructions of Ordinal Perfection properly we see that everything is interconnected to the Word of God and to the inner workings of the creation itself. In the Hebrew alphabet the tenth Hebrew letter is the Yod and it represents a single hand with a value of ten. So that this letter Yod = Hand can also represent the double witness of the two hands together having ten fingers. This is very important because the hand represented by the Yod in the Hebrew alphabet is neither open nor close. What happens if you open your hand and include the thumb? We see five fingers. The number five represents the breath of God which can be equated with the blessings and favor of God. Following the same principle that we applied to the Four and Three, let us look into the inner workings of the numbers Five and Four. If we open up our hands with our thumbs included our spirit-man will immediately equate the five fingers with the blessings of God. The redeemed soul will see the creation—Four—overwhelmed by the mercies of a Mighty and Loving God—Five. Ephesians 4:11 “And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers.” God’s five-fold ministry is represented by an opened hand; the open hand also represents Jesus’ heart toward the human race; Jesus tells the Laodicea church that He is knocking at the door of their hearts, as if it were hand to hand or heart to heart, wanting to come in and to have fellowship with them. An open hand represents a heart that it’s open to receive God’s spiritual blessings, while a close hand represents an unwilling heart. Even today we know that a raised closed hand or fist is symbolic of rebellion. Because of past failures Moses was refusing to go and deliver the Israelites from Egyptian captivity, then God asked Moses “What is that in your hand?” God had destined Moses to be a Deliverer before Moses was born, it was written in his heart. Once Moses let go of the rod that represented the failures of his past, he was released and allowed to put the past behind him, and fulfill his destiny which involved the number Ten, as in the Ten Commandments written by God Himself on stoned tablets that Moses was to deliver to Israel. Moses was also called to consecrate the priesthood as recipients of the sacrifices that Israel was required to offer. The word consecration is a two part word: the second part of the word is Mah-leh = SECRATE. In the original Hebrew first appears in Genesis 1:22 and is translated “Fill up complete” God places two Hebrew letters in front of Mah-leh: first the Yod and second Dalet: Yod means hand and Dalet means open door. Put it all together and to consecrate means to open up your hand which represents our hearts and God will fill it to overflow with mercy and grace. Christianity’s foundation are Justification, sanctification, glorification and consecration. The Five-fold ministry proclaiming the Four basic tenants of the Christian faith completes the number Nine: Justification by faith in the blood of Jesus, Sanctification by the Word of God, Glorification by the renewing work of the Holy Spirit in us and the Consecration of an open heart to God’s individual destiny for each of us. Psalm 19:9-10 “The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.” Verse Nine represents God’s completed work that will endure forever, and the number Ten represents that it was all accomplished through the gifts or blessings that flow out of Ordinal Perfection: Honey is ingested into the inward man and gold is for our outward adornment. Six is the number of man; Adam was created on the sixth day. Adam was created in the image of God who is Three Persons so we see that Three plus Three equals Six. Psalm 8:4-6 “What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that you visit him? For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put ALL THINGS under his feet.” Man is the crowning achievement of God’s creation! Meaning that man is the reason that God created our universe and the purpose for its continued existence. Although the first man, Adam failed to measure up to God’s destiny, the last Adam, Jesus did not let us down. We added three plus three to see man’s destiny in verse SIX: How God put all things under man’s feet. Following God’s flow of add and multiply let us now multiply Three times Three which equals Nine the number of completeness and the finality that takes place before we enter into the infinite realm in which God dwells, with a new heaven and the new earth added. Psalm 8:3, 9 “When I consider Your HEAVENS (our present universe), the WORK of Your FINGERS (Ordinal Perfection), the moon and the stars that You have ORDAINED…9) O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth!” Psalm113:4-6 “The Lord is high above all nations, His glory above the HEAVENS (our present universe), who is like the Lord our God, who dwells on HIGH (infinity), who humbles Himself to behold the things that are in the HEAVENS and in the EARTH? (our present universe)” God dwells in Infinity Time. God created our universe and put a limit for its duration for a very specific reason; and man is the tool that God personally fashioned to bring about the purpose for the creation of the heavens and the earth. 1 John 3:8 “He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. FOR THIS PURPOSE THE SON OF GOD WAS MANIFESTED, that He might DESTROY THE WORKS of the devil.” I believe that the cause or reason why God created our temporary universe was that He had to deal with the nature of evil. God is GOOD and the essence of Goodness Himself: Since only God is Good and He does not change; evil then—the antonym for good—could be portrayed as a shadow that follows God’s goodness. Before the creation of our universe evil existed only in a vacuum if you will. The only way for God to get rid of evil would be for Him to stop being good; thank God for the impossibility of God ever ceasing to be good. If one cannot get rid of evil then how does God neutralize it? By exposing evil for what it is: EXCEEDINGLY SINFUL in a contained area where God can keep evil from ever contaminating the Infinite Time in which He dwells. Romans 7:13 “Has then what is GOOD become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might APPEAR (be exposed as) SIN, was producing death in me through what is GOOD (God’s law), so that sin through the commandment might become EXCEEDINGLY SINFUL.” Notice the verse and chapter numbers: Seven is the completion of something that is temporary, and Thirteen denotes sin, death and evil. I believe that our universe was created for the express purpose of exposing evil for what it is, the exact opposite of God’s goodness. Evil without essence was like a mine hidden on a field waiting to be tripped. God created a secure place—our universe—and then created the angels first, knowing that eventually one or some of His creatures would decide that they could be good without God, not knowing that evil was the opposite of all that is good, and once a sovereign creature created in the image of God put himself before God that creature would become the embodiment of evil itself. Lucifer the creature that tripped that hidden mine became the embodiment of all that is evil: Devil means supreme spirit of evil and Satan means adversary, everything that God is not. For more details on this subject read my book: The Shadow of Evil by Marcos Marrero in the books section of the houseoffaithministries.org web-page. Revelation 19:20 “The the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. THESE TWO WERE CAST ALIVE into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.” At the end of our first six thousand years of human history and before we enter into God’s millennial rest, the embodiment of evil in HUMAN FORM—the Antichrist and the False Prophet—are taken alive into the lake of fire, which is the infinite destiny of evil itself. A thousand years later the spiritual embodiment of evil itself—the Devil and Satan—will join them, to be displayed for time immemorial, as the smoke of their torment rises to warn all future and newly created beings of the consequences of their choosing—whether to be with God or not—and of the great difference between good and evil. I used to think that Eve was the victim when the serpent lured her into partaking of the forbidden fruit. For we know that Adam was not deceived, Adam loved his bride and did not want to lose her, so he chose her fate and partook with her knowingly. But when God judged the serpent God’s pronouncement was: He, the Seed of the woman, shall bruise the serpents head. The woman was not the victim, SHE WAS THE MEANS! It is true that the serpent poisoned human DNA with evil and death. But Jesus, the Seed of the woman, through His virgin birth infused eternal life into all humanity with His purifying blood, thereby exposing evil for what it truly is and eventually locking evil up for all infinity in the Lake of Fire for all to see, neutralized of its power to deceive and to never cause harm again. Also, in great amazement, we will see in the new heavens and in the new earth, prominently displayed will be the holy city, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. She will bear witness for time immemorial of the fact that God and only God is Good, and that His mercies endure forever. And that His promises are Yes and Amen! Revelation 21:1-3 “Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, ‘Behold, THE TABERNACLE OF GOD IS WITH MEN, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.’” In verses One through Three we see the completion of the purpose for which God created our universe, the present heaven and earth. Revelation 21:4 “And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, FOR THE FORMER THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY.” And in verse Four the creation represented by the number Four is introduced to a new reality: Four plus Four = Eight the number of new beginnings that follows after the completion of the number Seven, at the end of the thousand years reign of Christ. All this is taking place in Revelation chapter twenty-one: Seven times Three. Daniel 6:27 “He DELIVERS and RESCUES, and He works SIGNS and WONDERS in heaven and on earth, who has delivered DANIEL (the wise) from the power of the lions.” He delivers and rescues number Six the wise man, through signs and wonders. Two plus Seven equals Nine for Completion, and the Three numbers is for Divine Perfection which ADDS to the number Twelve for Governmental Perfection. Nine MULTIPLIED by the number Three equals Twenty-seven, the number of the chapter, and the number of books in the New Testament. Intuitive knowledge is infinite, it is so vast and so deep that is able to provide us from within—in the spirit-man—with the assurances that a life-time in the natural could never match in experience or scope. To know that we know with unrivaled certainty! Even though we may not understand it all in the natural, is not that what faith is? All the numbers referenced in the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, speak volumes of how God puts it all together in the final tally. But for now I want to encourage those of you who are seeking Intuitive Knowledge, that is not about the numbers per say, as much as it is acknowledging the spirit-man within us by always looking at the numerical context.
