The Three Angels Messages Lesson 02: No Sympathy for the Devil

Revelation 14:8 - And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

The second angel’s message seems very complicated at first.  It definitely deals with a lot of symbols.  In order to understand this Bible verse, let’s take a closer look at the following keywords:

Babylon

Fallen

Wine

Wrath

Fornication

Let’s read together Genesis 9:7-17; Genesis 10:10; Genesis 11:1-4; Isaiah 14:13-14; and Daniel 1:2.

If we are to talk about Babylon, we need to also discuss Babel. Both kingdoms were founded in the land of Shinar.  Babel can be considered the archetype for all the worldly kingdoms that followed it.

The story of the Tower of Babel is one of the most famous stories in the Bible.  Have you ever considered the builders’ motivations for building the tower in the first place?

 The builders did not trust God’s promise to never destroy the world again with a flood.  They wanted to survive another flood on their own power. 

The builders also did not want to follow God’s command to be fruitful and multiply across the earth.  Rather, they wanted to build a tower whose “top is in the heavens”  and make a name for themselves.  The builders seem to be motivated by pride and perhaps to even take the worship of God for themselves.

Let’s read together Exodus 20:2-6; 1 Chronicles 9:1; Jeremiah 16:18; Jeremiah 50:38; and Daniel 3:1-7.

The story of Daniel’s three friends and the fiery furnace is another well-known Bible story.  Have you considered what was Nebuchadnezzar’s motivation for setting up the golden image in the first place?  He wanted everyone in his empire to acknowledge Babylon as supreme, even over any god his subjects might be worshiping.  If anyone refused to bow before Nebuchadnezzar’s golden idol, they were to be killed by being tossed into a fiery furnace. 

Nebuchadnezzar had essentially set up a false religious system of worship enforced by civil authority.   This system forced people to choose between dying for their religious faith or to compromise that faith in order to live.

Let’s read together 2 Samuel 1:27; Isaiah 21:9; Jeremiah 51:8-9, 47; Daniel 5:25-30; and Revelation 18:2.

“Babylon is fallen, is fallen.”  God ultimately judged Babylon for its idolatry and persecution of God’s people.  Babylon was conquered by the Medo-Persians in 539 BC.

Let’s read together Proverbs 20:1; 23:29-35; 31:3-5; and Jeremiah 51:7.

Alcoholic wine in the Bible is always viewed in a negative light.  Alcoholic wine clouds and even perverts judgment.   Note that the Bible does talk about unfermented non-alcoholic wine more positively, but that is a Bible study for another time.

Let’s read Psalm 75:8; Jeremiah 23:15; and Hosea 4:11-12

Prophetically speaking, wine also represents God’s judgment against wickedness and  idolatry.  You definitely do not want to drink this wine!

Let’s read together Exodus 15:6-7; 32:9-12; Numbers 11:33; 16:46; Deuteronomy 9:7-8; 2 Kings 22:13-17; Ezra 5:12; Jeremiah 44:7-9; and Romans 1:18.

What is wrath?  The Merriam-Webster Dictionary offers two definitions that are relevant to our Bible study today.  Wrath can be defined as a “strong vengeful anger or indignation (anger aroused by something unjust, unworthy, or mean).”  Wrath can also be defined as “retributory punishment for an offense or a crime; divine punishment.”

God’s wrath is His response to sin.  In the Old Testament, God’s wrath consumed the Egyptian army chasing the children of Israel.  God’s wrath was also aroused when the children of Israel committed sins or fell into idolatry.  God’s wrath led to the destruction of the temple of Jerusalem and the Babylonian captivity.

Let’s read together Psalm 21:8-9; Zephaniah 1:1-18; Matthew 3:7; Luke 3:7; Romans 2:5; Ephesians 5:6; and Colossians 3:6.

God’s wrath is also associated with judgment.  God’s wrath will be poured in full on the unrighteous at Judgment Day.

Let’s read together Numbers 16:46; 2 Chronicles 12:6-9; 32:25-26; Psalms 78:32-39: 85:2-4; and 106:23.

Despite what many people believe, God does not want to pour His wrath on people.  In the Old Testament, Aaron and Moses both interceded on behalf of the children of Israel to avert God’s wrath.  God is willing to spare sinners from His wrath when they humble themselves before Him.  Whether it was the people of Israel or a king like Hezekiah, God was willing to grant mercy to all who came to Him earnestly and asked forgiveness of their sins.

Let’s read together Isaiah 53:4-6, 10; John 3:16, 36; Romans 5:9; 1 Thessalonians 5:9; and 1 John 4:10.

God has done everything He could to shield us from His wrath.  God loves us so much that He gave His only son Jesus to die for our sins.  Jesus is our ultimate intercessor.  We only have to confess and repent of our sins and call upon Jesus as our Lord and Savior.

Let’s read together Ezekiel 23:16-18; Hosea 4:11-12; Isaiah 23:17; and  John 8:41.

What is fornication?  The Merriam-Webster Dictionary gives the definition as “sexual intercourse between two persons who are not married to each other.” 

The Bible likened God’s people (the church) to a woman (Jeremiah 6:2).  Paul the Apostle described the church as the bride of Christ (Ephesians 5:22-33).  Therefore, spiritual fornication would be the church embracing someone or something other than Christ.  In the Old Testament times, the people of Israel strayed from God and worshiped various idols and other false gods.

Let’s read together Matthew 24:24; John 4:24; 2 Timothy 3:1-5; 1 John 2:15-23; Revelation 17:1-6; and Revelation 18:3, 9.

The book of the Bible describes a harlot woman who represents a false worship of Christ. This church outwardly seems Christian, but in actuality, it does not follow Jesus in spirit and truth.  Many people will be deceived and fall into Babylon.

Let’s read together Deuteronomy 31:19 and Revelation 18:1-8.

What does the second angel’s message mean?

All false systems of worship will be judged.  Salvation by works, the idea you can make it to heaven on your own merits, cannot save you.  Salvation in sin, the idea that once you are saved, you are always saved, will lead you to be lost.  All these forms of worship will lead you to Babylon.

Even if you are worshiping at the “right” church the “right” way, you can have Babylon in your heart.  If you harbor pride in your heart or you esteem anything in the world more than God, then you are in spiritual Babylon.

If you find yourself in Babylon, what are you to do?  God wants you to leave Babylon right now!  Jesus is calling you to worship Him in spirit and in truth.  He does not want you to face God’s wrath.  Repent and turn to Christ your Savior!

Friend, will you share the second angel’s message with others?

4:32 AM Stuff on the walls. Not entirely sure what that is. Might be water?

4:35 AM ”INDISEN” It’s written on the wall. Looks like blood. o_o

4:36 AM There’s a lot of this blood trailing past “INDISEN” and going into this room. This is someone’s room, I know it. I don’t remember whose. I knocked.

4:37 AM Nobody’s answering. I’ll keep trying.

4:38 AM Okay, I’m openrevji0 hellooooo This is surprising. Oh god where did my emotions go. It’s, uh.. it’s the Innkeeper. She’s dead. Head decapitated, sliced clean off. I think the Masked Massacrer is on board the Exodus. I need to tell someone.

4:51 AM The bridge, found the bridge, telling Doctor Jackson.

4:55 AM God, there’s not really much we can do besides be prepared to kill anyone who attacks us. This is gonna be hell.

5:34 AM Sneaking back into bed.

9:09 AM You know what I really like, journal? Waking up to find Donnie cuddling me.

9:27 AM I wonder if there’s any breakfast today.

9:33 AM YES There is. :D Weetabix! :DD

9:38 AM MOTHERF oh “Lowest Point” has a really big drop, caught me off-guard. ..wait, “Lowest Point.” Why’s that playing? God, who cares, this song kicks ass.

9:44 AM DRAW A STAIRWAY FOR MY GOD TO SPITE THE SOFA OF MY FAITH

10:03 AM “I hope you folks enjoyed that little wake-up call there. Found it among Yates’ music. Specifically, we found a sheet of paper attached to this album, We Excavate, by Sunsetters. The paper said ‘Track 8.’ “Anyway, this is your captain speaking. Doctor Jackson did a fantastic job covering for me in the night shift, and now he’s gone to sleep. Now it’s my turn again. So, uh.. good morning! I hear chef Gusteau is serving some breakfast in the dining room this morning. “The skies look clear and red, the seas oddly still. We’re making great progress, record time so far. So.. welcome to day two of your voyage on the R.M.S Exodus. “What’s that? ……oh. I’ve just been informed that a miss Penelope Judge passed away last night. You may have known her as the innkeeper at the lovely seaside inn in Liverpool. I assure you, her passing away had nothing to do with Patrick Yates’ yesterday. “Anyway, these unexpected developments only strengthen the point of my advice for you ladies and gentlemen: stay alive. Fitzgerald out.” Interestingly enough, he’s right about the deaths being unrelated. I’m heading back to my room. Donnie’ll be wondering where I am.

10:31 AM I brought Donnie back some fruit. :D And some toast!

11:00 AM ..door. Donnie’s getting it. It’s a girl. Fifteen, I think. What was her name Quinn, Quinn Tickrand. She wants to hang out with us. Because we seem like cool people. And she feels unsafe. ..o_o Wait, what?

11:04 AM Quinn’s parents are missing. She says they were having an argument, a very nasty argument, and she left the room to get some fresh air but when she went back down they were gone and they haven’t come back. We said she could stay with us until they show up again. Which they will. They will.

11:11 AM I do wish they would show up.

12:34 PM ..Donnie heard a noise. Came from the hallway. Quinn says it’s probably her parents looking for her. I concur.

12:36 PM NO YOU FUCKER NO FUCKING NO FUCKING RAKE. Quinn’s dead. >___< The Rake’s run off again, back to its cargo hold. So this is how it’s gonna be, Rake. Picking us off one by one. Saving me for last, me, the White Jester you want. You bastard.

12:59 PM We’re telling the captain about this.

1:02 PM “Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. If any of you know where Mister and Missus Samuel and Janet Tickrand are, please tell them to come up to the bridge. Once again, Samuel and Janet Tickrand, please come up to the bridge. As for the rest of you, stay alive. Fitzgerald out.”

1:05 PM Miss DeNumante came in. To the bridge. She says the Rake kidnapped her son, Brian. Carl says he’s had enough of the Rake’s shit. rwahshotgun, he’s got a shotgun. He told me to get my guitar thing and come with him. “We’re gonna open some fucking windows.”

1:34 PM Here we go. Carl Rackleberg and Jordan Dooling, shotgun and Tiger Stripes. Versus the Rake and the Rake’s claws. I am so excited and terrified at the same time.

1:47 PM We step into the cargo hold, and into the mouth of madness. It’s darker than a witch’s ass in here. It’s also colder than a rat’s tit. ..I think I got those backwards.

1:50 PM I hear something. It sounds like the pitter-patter of light footsteps. Not the Rake’s ferocious footsteps, either. Calculating footsteps. Carl has a flashlight, and he’s shining it around, but we can’t quite see anything. Or anyone.

1:51 PM ..THERE where’d it go I can hear it panting and snarling. Something is very wrong about this, though. The Rake’s been oddly quiet up until now.

1:52 PM THERE IT IS AGAIN FUCKER IT’S GOING FOR THE EXIT

1:53 PM Ran out to a hallway Hit a dead-end Time to eat guitar controller, Rake. Wait, I need a one-liner for this. And with this guitar, I shred the Rake a new asshole.

1:55 PM The Rake is dead. I’m not proud of that one-liner. That wasn’t very.. me, y’know? ..wait, where’s Carl? Did he not follow me?

2:00 PM Cargo hold. I don’t see anything at all here. ..flashlight beam! Flashoh

2:14 PM “Attention, ladies and gentlemen? This is your captain speaking. We have some good news and some bad news. “The good news is, that creature that was on board? It’s dead now! Never again will you have to worry about it. The bad news is, our loyal and competent engineer, Carl Rackleberg, has passed away. We all miss him deeply, and.. it’s like ev— “Really? Okay, we’ve got more news. Ms. Desmond has woken up from her comatose state. She’s apparently asking for a Rael. If you or anyone you know happens to know who she might be referring to, please let us know. “In the meantime, I highly recommend considering trying to stay alive. Fitzgerald out.”

3:38 PM I’m visiting Ms. Desmond. I’m gonna see her for myself. Doctor Johnson is here. Not Doctor Jackson, but Johnson.

3:39 PM Well hello, Ms. Desmond. ..who is staring at me. She said “Hello” back. Doctor Johnson is shocked. Ms. Desmond is definitely the old woman I’ve been seeing around. It’s really creepy, looking at her, and she’s in bed and not standing in the middle of a hallway. I asked how she’s feeling. “How are you feeling?” That’s what I got back. I said my name is Jordan. “Your name is Rael.” No, my name is Jordan. “You are Rael to us.” Who’s “us?” “I’m still figuring that one out.” Are you feeling alright, Ms. Desmond? “I’m not sure. I’m still getting used to these feelings.” You’ve been in a coma, Ms. Desmond. Do you remember anything? “I can remember all of my former life.. and a lot more. For instance, I am just a virus to her.” To who? “It has no name of her own.” What doesn’t? o_o “One of us called her the Epping Aquatarkus. Another one of us called her Salmacis. I don’t know what to call her.” But what is that? Who is that? ..no reply now.

3:57 PM That was weird. That’s an understatement. That was really weird. I gotta find Donnie; I want some hugs.

4:22 PM Donnie’s hugs always help greatly. :3

4:44 PM That was a gunshot.

4:50 PM Everyone’s gathered around this door. I take it the gunshot was from in here.

4:51 PM ..no. D: Miss DeNumante. There’s even a note. “They took my Brian away.” That’s all it says. .___.;;

5:20 PM We.. we’d actually killed the Rake, though. She didn’t have to do it. We were gonna find Brian. We were, we are. Goddamn. Everyone’s dying out there, and she chooses to.. bah. I dunno, journal. I find something depressing about it. And here I thought I was desensitized to people dying by now. I guess it’s cabin fever. Anxiety. I have a lot more time to think now. I don’t like having time to think. But with the Rake dead, we shouldn’t have to worry as much. Now we only have one serial killer on-board, picking us off one-by-one. Hey, it’s better than two.

6:00 PM Sausages for dinner today. Yum.

7:10 PM I’m sorry, journal. I’m just really.. bah. I’m tired, journal. I’m tired. I’m going to sleep.

9:50 PM door goddammit I’ll get it.

9:53 PM It was Mister Finch, like last night. He asked me about Ms. Desmond. I showed him my journal. He read it really fuckin’ fast. But maybe that was just me. Then he quietly said “Rapture.” I asked for clarification. “It’s really coming, Rael. It’s really coming.” Then he walked off.

9:55 PM Rapture is coming. Rapture. Is coming. No matter how many times I write it, it refuses to bring any clarity. It’s just three words, three context-less words, three meaningless words. ..three real words.

11:00 PM eighteen

(Attached: “ Salmacis doesn’t talk much about the past, preferring to discuss the present. Everything’s all logic and accuracy with her, too, which can make for some great conversations and some frustrating ones, depending on your mood. But somewhere in this library, I should have something to offer insight into her past. I should, but I don't. I’ve got information on everyone but her. It’s always here, always all around us, you can’t escape from her liquid mental clutch, yet you can also never learn about her. It always.. slips away, out of your grasp. I’ve lived a long time, a real long time, and I still have no idea where it came from. I think that’s her use of abstraction, her insistence on complexity. If you can create something that’s so complex and so filled with monotony and misdirection, you can scare everyone off. Everyone except those who have, themselves, mastered the art of depersonalization.”)

THE PASSOVER LAMB

The Passover lamb was the animal God directed the Israelites to use as a sacrifice in Egypt on the night God struck down the first born sons of every household (Exodus 12:29)

This was the final plague God issued against Pharaoh, and it led to Pharaoh releasing the Israelites from slavery (Exodus 11:1).

After that fateful night, God instructed the Israelites to observe the Passover Feast as a lasting memorial (Exodus 12:14), God

instructed every household to select a year old lamb without defect (Exodus 12:5) (Leviticus 22:20-21). The head of household was to slaughter the lamb at midnight, taking care that none of its bones were broken, and apply some of its blood to the tops and sides of the doorframe of the house.

God said that when He saw the lamb’s blood, he will “pass over” that house and not permit “the destroyer” to enter (Exodus 12:23).

New Testament establishes a relationship between this prototypical Passover Lamb and the consummate Passover lamb, Jesus Christ (1st Corinthians 5:7).

John the Baptist recognised Jesus as “the Lamb of God” (John 1:29), and Peter links the lamb without defect (Exodus 12:5) with

Christ, whom he calls a “lamb without blemish or detect” (1 Peter 1:19).

Jesus Christ is qualified to be called one without blemish because his life was completely free from sin (Heb. 4:15).

In Revelation, John sees Jesus Christ as a lamb looking as if it had been slain” (Rev. 5:6).

Jesus Christ was crucified during the time that Passover was observed (Mark 14:12) the bible says believers have symbolically applied the sacrificial blood Christ to their hearts and thus have escaped eternal death (Heb. 9:12, 14) just as the Passover lambs is applied causes God’s Judgment to Pass-over sinners and gives life to believers (Romans 6:23).

As the first Passover marks the Israelites' release from Egyptian slavery, so the

death of Christ marks our release from the slavery of sin (Roman 8:2). As the first Passover was to be held in remembrance as an

annual feast, so Christians are to memorized the Lord’s death in

communion until he returns (1 Corinthians 11:26).

The Old Testament Passover Lamb, although a reality in that time, was a more foreshadowing of the better and final Passover lamb, Jesus Christ.

Through his sinless life and sacrificial death, Jesus became the ONLY ONE capable of giving people a way to escape and a sure hope of eternal life (1 Peter 1:20-21)

CHRIST OUR PASSOVER

Here are amazing comparisons

1. Four Days: A lamb had to be chosen and brought into the house four days before Passover. Four days before his death on the cross on the eve of Passover, Jesus rode on a donkey (Exodus 12:3-6; Luke 19:29-38).

2. Without Blemish: The Lamb had to be without blemish or deformities, Jesus Christ was without blemish (Exodus 12:5, 1 Peter 1:18-19)

3. Broken Bones: The Israelites weren’t allowed to break the bones of the Lamb, Jesus bones didn’t get broken. (Exodus 12:9, John 19:36).

4. No Left Overs: The Lamb had to be consumed entirely on the eve of Passover. Jesus was taken off the cross on the same

evening of his crucifixion (Exodus 12:10, John 19:31).

5. The 14th Nisan: The Passover lamb was slain on the eve of Passover, on the 14th Nisan or Abib, which is the first month.

Jesus was crucified on the same date. (Exodus 12:6, John 19:42).

6. Blood: The Israelites had to sprinkle the blood of the lamb on the door post as a sign to God. Whoever stayed in the house

behind the blood was safe from God’s Judgment against the Egyptians. Whoever stays with Jesus and does his will, His

blood will keep him/her safe from God’s judgment. (Exodus 12:12-13, Isaiah 53:5, Romans 5:8-10)

FINALLY

Getting saved is an exciting experience. It is plainly the mother of all experiences what with the guilt, condemnation and inward turmoil taken away at the moment of sincere repentance and forgiveness and salvation (Isaiah 53:4-6). The moment we get saved, we receive the commission to witness and the ministry of reconciliation is committed unto us. We get commissioned by God to blow the trumpet.(2 Corinthians 5:17-21).

God bless you

Amen.

The "I Am" Conspiracy

Many people have been convinced to believe that God, and Angelic Beings say "I Am" to imply divinity; this has come from a misunderstanding of ancient languages over time, the Gospel of John being made up, and a lack of theological structuring - where by dissecting the language errors, it is possible to fix the theological miscomprehensions.

Lets start at the source of it all, that God is beyond "I Am", as God is beyond time, and therefore doesn't exist as an "I", as God is the Source of all the Individuals that exist.

The letter "I" is like a historical timeline; where we have a beginning and an end.

In the Bible the Creator Divine Being (YHVH Eloh) has been misunderstood as being the same as the God Most High (El Elyon); where the Creator/Creation does have a beginning and an end, yet God the Source of reality doesn't, as even when the universe collapses one day, the Source will still be there the same.

Because of the mechanisms of speech, when in the prophetic writings, we have statements of the prophets speaking as God, and they use 'I Am the one speaking', this implies God spoke through them, it isn't that God then becomes the Great "I Am", as God is beyond Self.

In Exodus 3:14 this has been commonly been mistranslated as 'I Am that I Am' (אהיה אשׁר אהיה); it would be better translated, 'Shall be what shall be', as there isn't the word 'I' used in the ancient Hebrew sentence structure.

Ani/Anoki is the word 'I' (אני/ואנכי) in Hebrew, and we can find sentences in the Biblical Hebrew, that have 'Ani Ahayah', and where it doesn't make sense that 'Ahayah' automatically has an 'I' implied, as we have sentences that break that rule.

It's a modern idea of the language that when an Aleph is used before the word, that always automatically implies it must be a person, and therefore there is an 'I' implied; yet there are cases in Biblical Hebrew, that shows it wasn't used that way grammatically in ancient times (Isaiah 47:7, Jeremiah 31:1, Hosea 14:6, Ezekiel 34:24, etc).

Where all these verses have Ani Ahayah (2 Samuel 7:14, 1 Chronicles 17:13, 1 Chronicles 28:6, Jeremiah 32:38, Ezekiel 11:20, Ezekiel 14:11, Ezekiel 37:23, Zechariah 2:9, Zechariah 8:8), and all of these have Anoki Ahayah (Exodus 4:12+15, Deuteronomy 31:23, Judges 11:9, 1 Samuel 23:17, Jeremiah 11:4, Jeremiah 24:7, Jeremiah 30:22, Ezekiel 36:28).

The statement in Exodus 3:14 was meant as a 'memorial to the people', that when the Lord who Makes Become (Yah-HaVaH) says it will become something, then 'it will become, what it will become'.

The terminology Bhagavan Brahma means the 'Lord who makes Become', just the same as Yah-Havah means in ancient Hebrew - this terminology was used to imply the Creator Divine Being in ancient times.

The next problem with the misusage of language is within the Sanskrit, where Atman translates as 'Self', 'Soul', & 'Life'.

We all have an Atman, which is that our Soul ID, interlinks with ourself (Psyche), and we exist as an individual.

We perceive that we have Self, as we have a historical timeline, so we think that we exist, as we can analyse our Self from our soul's perspective.

Some places it says that Brahman is all Atman, and then people perceive that Brahman has a Self like us.

Therefore in Hinduism's concept of Self Realisation, they also believe that when someone goes around making "I Am" statements, that Self is actually God interacting with reality through them.

Whilst it is true that without God, none of us would exist, and so God is the one working through all of us, it doesn't make us God, just because God can use us like a puppet, within a Play (Lila).

Clearly lots of people within this realm called the Maya (which is between Heaven (Svarga) & Hell (Naraka)) would like to claim themselves as more than they are, as it is a realm of selfish desires, and thus it leads us to delusions.

The easiest way to explain theologically the errors being made: Is that we exist within something like a universal super computer; where the God Most High (El Elyon/Ala Ilah)/Brahman/Ahura Mazda is like a CPU (Universal Central Processor).

The Source of reality doesn't have a personal ID (I), and a soul; yet it calculates all of them, and thus within Universal Consciousness, the Source of reality is all of us.

Because in the Bible it says that YHVH is the First & the Last - the Creator Divine being does have a beginning & an end, and thus a timeline (I), whereas the Source of reality doesn't.

Above Brahma (Creator Divine Being) in Hinduism is Brahman (the quality of what Makes Become); within the Biblical theology: the God Most High is the Source of reality, which is beyond form, the Creator is the Arm of God interacting with the reality, and the Messiah is the Hand of God projected into this world.

Buddha tried to correct Hinduism back to the Dharma; where by using a terminology like God, it makes the Source of reality into a thing, when it is everything.

When God is understood as a being, it is then perceived that it has a Self; whereas Buddha, Yeshua, etc, pointed out that the Source of reality is Selfless (Anattā).

The Gospel of John was made up with multiple "I Am" sentences to imply Christ was going round, claiming himself as being God incarnate, when he didn't speak that way in the Synoptic Gospels, and warns that many will be deceived by it (Matthew 24:4-5, Mark 13:5-6, Luke 21:8).

These layers of misunderstanding have caused numerous theological errors for thousands of years; because of this some have then thought "I Am" statements imply divinity, whereas the Divine is selfless.

Yeshua taught selflessness the same as other Avatars, yet due to lousy translations, it hasn't been portrayed correctly; where he told his followers to hate Self ('Psyche' - Luke 14:26), as no one can serve two masters (Matthew 6:24) - Where Mammon implies that which we have faith in i.e. Ourself becomes an idol to serve, before serving the Source of reality.

Between the Dharmic ideas being muddled, as people want to revere themselves as being the Divine, and the errors in the Biblical language it has led some theologians to believe that when Christ in the fake Gospel of John was making "I Am" statements, he was simply implying the same as some Hindu concepts have taught; yet as already suggesting Buddha being an incarnation of Vishnu (the Sustainer), tried to fix this mistake, and lead Dharmic followers back to Selflessness (Anattā).

The ultimate Source of reality is beyond infinite time, so whereas we exist within a Oneness of Creation, the Source exists in a place of 0neness (Zeroness), before anything was even formulated, and thus has a perspective beyond eternity.

When we limit ourself into a vessel, and attach to the idea of being a Self, we miss that we're also part of that infinite scope, and in letting go of all attachment, we reach an enlightened state of Nirvana/0neness.

Line Upon Line Lesson 088: From Bronze Mirrors

Exodus 38:8 - He made the laver of bronze and its base of bronze, from the bronze mirrors of the serving women who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

What is a laver? The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a laver as a large basin used for ceremonial ablutions in the ancient Jewish tabernacle and temple worship. Ceremonial ablution was the washing of one’s body or a part of it, as part of a religious rite.  Today we will consider the significance of the laver in the sanctuary system and its relevance to us today.

Let's read together Exodus 40:7, 30-32; John 19:34; and 1 Peter 1:16.

The laver was filled with water and placed directly between the sanctuary and the altar of sacrifice. It is interesting to note that two symbols of cleansing - water from the laver and blood from the altar of sacrifice - were both present in the sanctuary courtyard.

Let’s read together Exodus 30:17-21; Matthew 22:1-14

The priest was to wash his hands and feet before entering the sanctuary. Failure to do so would mean death for the priest. Why was there such a harsh penalty for forgetting to wash your hands? Ritual cleansing was important to demonstrate the need for holiness in the presence of a holy God. 

Let’s read together 1 Samuel 16:7; 1 Corinthians 13:12; 2 Corinthians 3:17-18; and James 1:23-25.

It is interesting to note that the laver was made from objects intended for self grooming. It is possible that the laver had a very polished surface. If so, the priest could see himself while washing.

Perhaps as the priest saw his reflection in the laver, he was reminded God sees past outward appearances. God could see straight into people’s hearts.

Let’s read together 1 Corinthians 15:31; Ephesians 5:26; Titus 3:5; Hebrews 10:22; and 1 Peter 2:5.

We cannot be cleansed of our sins by our own merits or acts of righteousness. This can only be accomplished by the blood of Jesus Christ. Once we have that initial cleansing, we must seek renewal and regeneration by the Holy Spirit..

Taking one bath would not be sufficient to keep clean for a whole week, let alone an entire lifetime. In the same way we need to be washed daily in the Word of God. 

Friend, will you reflect on the lessons we learned today about the laver?

[therevelationofjohn]

"The Cardinal Hegemon." From the Book of Revelation, 14: 9-12.

The Second Angel says the Eurcharist is the answer to all of mankind's troubles. Now John reveals a third. The Third Angel=387, שחז‎, shachaz, "the grasp that held."

Details about the Third Angel are reminiscent of Sodom and Gomorah after God judged the twin cities wanting and smoked them like beef jerky and sulfured the earth:

From Vayera:

"23 By the time Lot reached Zoar, the sun had risen over the land. 24 Then the Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the Lord out of the heavens.

25 Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, destroying all those living in the cities—and also the vegetation in the land. 26 But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt."

v. 23-24: The Number is 8252, חבה‎‎ב, hava‎‎be, "fondness like a lover."

v. 25: The Number is 9329, טגב‎ט‎ ‎, tagbat, "beceause you stood up."

Once again in esoteric format God is telling us to stand for something. This hearkens back to our discussion of the Mark of the Beast which signfies the willingness of the human race to empathize with the very serious predicament it has placed a large number of its members in by failing to enforce secular law for the sake of the spiritual outcomes we all agree are important to us.

So once again, I will ask, WHY HAVE YOU FAILED TO PLACE DONALD TRUMP AND HIS CABINET UNDER ARREST? WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING HIS EVIL TO CONTINUE TO TROUBLE MANKIND DURING A VERY DELICATE TIME?

John had no idea the police would be Dunkin' during a crisis but they are. He says either way, "with the full strength of the Cup, we must enforce the Law" and rescue this planet from its current trajectory:

9 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand,

 10 they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 

11 And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.” 

12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus.

The Values in Gematria are:

v. 9: A third angel followed. The Number is 7346, ע‎ג‎םו‎, hahagmon, "the Bishop/Cardinal Hegemon."

v. 10: They too will drink the wine of God's fury. The Number is 13115, יגיא‎ה‎, yagi‎ha‎, "reach out of the valley, come and touch and arrive."

"The verb גיח (giah), or גוח (gwh), means to burst forth. It's applied to rivers and human births. Human collectives such as families and tribes are in the Bible often symbolized as mountains. Hence births signify valleys and are associated with rivers."

Rivers are explained in detail here:

v. 11: The smoke of their torment will rise forever. Smoke is a phonetic modification of the Base Modron of the Torha, Achan, "learn but do not be wicked" except it is Ashan, "the moment one does as the Scripture says and the wickedness ends."

The noun עשן ('ashan), means smoke. Contrary to the verb קטר (qatar I), which is used to describe the production of pleasing smoke (from incense or a burned offering), our noun עשן ('ashan) primarily conveys anger. It heralds the destruction of a burning town (Joshua 8:20, Judges 20:38), an approaching foe (Isaiah 14:31), wickedness (Isaiah 9:18), even the breath of Job's Leviathan (Job 41:12). It signifies transitoriness (Psalm 102:3, Hosea 13:5) and unpleasantness (Proverbs 10:26). Our noun is also frequently applied in theophanies, mostly as a device to instill due reverence (Genesis 15:17, Exodus 19:18, 2 Samuel 22:9, also see Song of Solomon 3:6).

The denominative verb עשן ('ashan), meaning to smoke (Exodus 19:18) or be angry (Psalm 80:4).

The adjective עשן ('ashen), meaning smoking (Exodus 20:18, Isaiah 7:4)."

The Number is 12491, יבתץא, yevetzha, "Be fresh, be pure, and they will be defeated."

v. 12: This calls for patient endurance. The Number is 5188, ןאףח, enaphach, "show some humility and help the afflicted who cohabitate this world with you."

"There are four verbs of the form ענה ('nh), or perhaps one verb with four distinct usages:

Verb ענה ('ana I) means to answer, respond or correspond, and since in the old world time was considered a cycle, noun עת ('et) means time. Temporal adverb עתה ('atta) means now; adjective עתי ('itti) means timely or ready, and conjunction יען (ya'an) means on account of. Noun מענה (ma'aneh) means an answer and noun ענה ('ona) means cohabitation.

Verb ענה ('ana II) means to be busy or occupied with. Noun ענין ('inyan) means occupation or task, and noun מענה (ma'ana) means place for or agent of a task.

Verb ענה ('ana III) means to afflict, oppress or humble. Noun ענו ('anaw) refers to the poor, afflicted or needy. Noun ענוה ('anawa) means humility. Noun ענות ('enut) means affliction. Adjective עני ('ani) means poor or afflicted. Noun עני ('oni) means affliction or poverty, and noun תענית (ta'anit) means humiliation."

John says if we do this for a cycle, and make an account of it, future generations will have all they need to continue the work. If we do as he says and fix what is wrong, every time there is trouble in society or on this world, students of the Gospels will study how we read the Beatitudes and the Great Hillels and disowned persons who were not capable of showing their fellow humans grace. Starting with Donald Trump:

Donald Trump is destroying the global economic substratum. Factory orders are declining a sign cascade failure is en route.

"Factory orders matter because the information provided about durable and non-durable goods helps investors monitor growth trends and the overall health of the economy. At a macro level, if the level of factory orders is rising, then the economy is likely growing as consumers demand more goods and services."

He has to be stopped and the US Government needs to re-enter the global marketplace and behave as a reliable trading partner or we are all going to be sorry.

Thus ends the age of the Third Angel, the end of the time allotted by God for evil to run rampant on this world.
