Spiritually Speaking
There is the carnal, which can be seen with carnal eye's, and the spiritual
which can not be seen
with carnal eye's. The carnally minded man, can not see the spiritual ways of
God. In the Old
Testament there was the Mountain of God, called Sinai. A carnal mountain. This
mountain
became obsolete with the founding of Zion. Zion is now, the spiritual Mountain
of God. Zion can
not be seen with the carnal eye's. A church can be described as a mountain. A
church with many
heads or leaders can be called a mountain range. Usually there is a leader and
below him are
other leaders, over the lesser people. Every church has it's foundation of
people in the earth. The
more people that enter in at the base level, raises the leader to a higher
level, until it becomes a
mountain of people. A small church can be called a hill. A carnally minded man
can only see a
group of people. The spiritually minded man can see a mountain. Isa 2:2 -- in
the last days, that
the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the
mountains, and shall be
exalted above the hills; The people are as stones in the mountain. God is
likened to a massive
rock. Those born of the rock, are likened to a small rock or stone. Some might
say, In his image.
Mat 6:27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
This can only
happen in the spirit.
There are three levels of man. The unsaved fish from the sea of evil, The
saved animals ( Flocks
and herd's ) of the earth on a solid foundation and the reborn spirits of the
first heaven. Salvation
moves man from fish to animal. Birth in the spirit moves man from animal to
spirit. This is
where man ceases to follow the nature of man, and follows the essence of the
spirit. Reptiles are
at home on land and sea. Rev 13:1
Mat 21:44. Part 1 ( And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken;)
The word broken
actually translates; to crush to dash together or shatter or break. The stone
which the builders
rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: The term, this stone,
speaks of Jesus.
Whosoever falls upon this stone. This is, in the light of 1 Ki 2:25 and he
fell upon him that he
died. Those who seek to "fall" upon Jesus shall be crushed, dashed together,
or broken, or ground
to power.
Mat 21:44 Part 2 (but on whomsoever it shall fall, "it will grind him to
powder".) This is a false
interpretation of words. Grind to power should actually be translated
winnowed. ( Strongs G3039
). When wheat is winnowed it is fanned and the outer shell or chaff is
removed. What is the chaff to the wheat? The spirit is separated from the
outer shell. This is the
separation of flesh and spirit. Mat 3:12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he
will thoroughly purge
his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff
with unquenchable
fire. There are those that will refuse to give up the way of the flesh, and
refuse spiritual growth.
These will be sent down to the pit.
In the last day, there will be twelve houses. These are representative of
twelve mountains. All of
these mountains together make up Zion. These mountains are made up of
individual stones.
These heads of houses are ambassadors of the first kingdom. The same saying
apply's to them. If
you fall upon them, you will be crushed, but if they fall upon you, you shall
be winnowed. These
leaders are also referred to as stars. At the morning of the day of God, the
stars will withdraw
their shining. This is the way of stars. When the sun comes up, the stars
disappear. They haven't
gone anywhere, but they are not seen.
Now consider, spiritually speaking. At the day of God, Rev 6:15 And the kings
of the earth,
These are kings or rulers of the people. Being of the earth, these are people
of salvation. These
are not rulers of the sea. Rev 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall
on us, and hide us
from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the
Lamb: So in this last
day at the rising of the sun, these practitioners of false doctrine, will beg
for you to allow them in.
Which means, God will open their eye's, after it's to late. After the rising
of the sun on the day of
God, there will not be enough time to get a man through the court of the
tabernacle to the Holy
Place, before the door is closed. Which takes about three and a half years.
They will pray for the
mountains ( churches ) and stones ( Those born of the Rock ) to fall on them.
The elect of God will be responsible for building their own houses. They will
begin to look and
find people they want in their houses. All it takes is a little faith the size
of a mustard seed,
because God is with you. If you don't how to build a house, that's no problem.
A servant is ask to
build a house, but it must be to the exact specifications, of the one that
ordered the house. A son
is treated differently. God said: build the house and I will take pleasure in
it. It is the builder that
will remain with the house into the second kingdom. The time is not short,
it's already here. The
whole world is as a garden before you, but the brambles and the thorn trees
must be rooted out.
There is no brotherhood between shepherd and sheep. A ram of the flock is not
a member of the
brotherhood of spirits. A shepherd can not take from another shepherd, but a
shepherd does not
have to answer to the rams of the flock. Take the best and leave the rest.
This is a benefit of being
born of the spirit, a attribute these rams lack. It is salvation that brings
man into the flock. It is
birth in the spirit, that raises man to a higher level, above the earth. The
only way into the Holy
Place is through the tabernacle. The only way into the New Jerusalem is
through these twelve
houses. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. A diamond in the rough
looks like an
ordinary rock. Only after it is cut and polished, does it become a thing of
beauty. Therefore, trial
by fire and blanching in the laver.
