John Ch 17 v3:
‘And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.’
Jesus spoke these words days before his sacrificial death outside the walls of Jerusalem.
Jesus’s death at the Cross was due to his full surrender to his Fathers will, to be a sacrifice for all mens sins.
We can only know the true God, by believing in the Cross, as it is only at the Cross that we cease to be are own God and the one making are own decisions for are life.
A religious fanatic called Saul who became known as Paul, wrote in Ephesians Ch 2, that because God opened his eyes to what was done at the Cross he now knew that: Jews, Gentiles, Arabs the Chinese and all nations of the world, could all know the true God, in a new and living way.
I thank God for the truth of the Cross, because I need forgiveness for my own sins and I need an advocate like him appearing on my behalf before his Fathers throne. I could not know God without a Saviour.
V4 I gloried you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do.
V5 And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.
V6 I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word.
V7 Now they know everything that you have given me is from you.
V8 For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they believed that you sent.
The Father & the Son. Having accomplished the work given him from his father: The 33rd verb of God in creation, the Sabbath of God rest: It is finished.
Revelation Ch 17: v5 – And on her forehead was written a name mystery: Babylon the great, mother of prostitutes and of earths abominations.
Babylon, a women seated on a scarlet beast! Europa!
As she is a mother of prostitutes, when it talk of kings and peoples as having drunken of her immortality it is not specific to a person – it is not an individual but rather an institution.
That scripture denotes it as sexual immorality, we conclude again that its not one specific person, but rather the World Wide Web of sexual immorality, a spirit of uncleanness and subsequent practice.
Adam did not know Eve sexually until they fell (fallen, fallen) & the fruit was not Christ but rather a murderer in Cain. God designed them to know sexual intimacy, but it was intended the coming together after man had conquered and then covered his wife’s nakedness. Conquered not just in respect to her, but himself and the temptation from that Dragon the ancient serpent.
Sexual immorality, is sexual activity for personal gratification outside of the communion with the Word of God and fellowship with God.
The seed of man and women combine to reproduce after Gods own likeness and kindness, this was the original blessing of God unto Male & Female.
Marriage is a lawful institution & therefore this has no inference to a prudish approach to sex within that institution. But within this institution we clearly have the first Church, and communion of the saints – Church is the Word and the receivers. Church is the groom and the bride. Church is an invitation, and a reciprocal response to the Word of invitation.
Church is the Will of God, the I will of God being received and not returning void.
Sexual immorality caused the Lord to cleanse the whole earth by a world wide wash: The global flood.
Then after Babel (Babylon) Abraham, a man who obeyed the voice of the Lord, through whom God gave a blueprint of redemption, through the Father and the Son.
The whole earth was not consumed by fire in his day, as it was reserved for a latter time, as God desired a multitude from all nations to be redeemed through the truth of the Father and the Son. A multitude of lights distinct from the darkness, due to having heard and received his voice.
Babylon the mother of prostitutes.
This word prostitute is first mentioned in Genesis Ch 34 when Jacobs sons state that Shechem in raping their sister Dinah had treated her as such.
Their all had a righteous indignation concerning this, and scripture affirms that it was an outrageous thing in Israel and that such a thing must not be done.
A pure bride, a virgin bride, a covered and protected bride. Not presumptuous but given within the context of Gods Word and covenant: Israel, the purpose of the nation. And why they were not to inter marry with other customs and practices. Perhaps Simeon and Levis crime was tricking them into circumcision as that was a part of what made them distinct as Gods chosen people.
Next the word is used in respect to Judah having departed from his brethren and his father Israel. Yet, despite this sin and transgression, the seedline of redemption came through Tamar.
In Jesus at the Centre of the Promised Land, it is eluded to that when Joseph revealed his self to his family it is when Judah gives a speech, offering himself as a captive so that Benjamin might go free. His repentance and care for his Father bears good fruit and he obtains a blessing from his Father, which is prophetic that Christ would come from the tribe of Judea.
Therefore, redemption is greater than the fall of man. Amen.
And the second man of grace and truth far exceeds Adam and the fall.
This must be held in are understanding when reading the final cannon of scripture the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Now Grace is never that we may continue in sin, rather it is truth to set us free from sins spiritual bondage to empower us to ‘conquer’: A personal possession of are land/body according to his commandments.
Revelation Ch 3 v20: Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.
The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne.
Ch 4 v1: After this I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven! And the first voice, which I had heard speaking to me like a trumpet, said, Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.
V2 At once I was in the Spirit, and behold, a throne stood in heaven, with one seated on the throne.
Immediately! At once! Clean through the words which I have spoken unto you.
In the Spirit, means purity and clean, and it comes from God himself, the creator of heaven and earth: A new creation – The God who did not ordained mankind to fall.
He stands at the door and knocks – If you hear the voice of my Word knocking and reciprocate unto it: I thirst, for clean and pure living springs for a life in the light.
Then, a door is opened into heaven and an invitation is given to join the great throng around the throne.
John began to weep as their was no one to open the scroll.
Weep not. Revelation Ch 21 v4.
Behold the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David from Judea, has conquered, so that he can open the door and scroll and its seven seals.
David was a shepherd king, anointed as his heart was after Gods own heart. His heart reciprocated to Gods own heart – Joseph revealed himself to his family once Judea honours his Father and puts his welfare first, even willing to suffer so that his Father does not.
Leviticus Ch 19 v32 – shortly after v29
Revelation Ch 10: John had to eat a little scroll, as he as a messenger had to be at one with the message. We are what we obey, what we eat and as he was going to be prophesying the Word of God, that brings bitter and sweet, whether that Word is received by individuals and nations or whether it is rebelled against.
The Dome of the Rock has no open heaven, as it is anti Father & Son, it is in open rebellion against Gods plan of redemption. God provided himself a sacrifice, he does not need the arm of man to bring about his will and purposes: The irony of a false humility that we are not made in the likeness of him, who stopped lowly to a manger, the star flying from the east drawing wisdom to speak into the fears of men: Fear Not I bring you tidying of great Joy.
The book of Revelation has two groups and two waters: Uncleanness from this World & the Purity of the Spirt of God, which always has an immediately!! Oh that God, Today if I if you will hear his voice: Baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins comes with the promise of a Fathers loving embrace: A voice from an Open Heaven.
Revelation Ch 12: Michael fought with that Dargon: Al flood! And may the earth come to the aid against every tunnel of terror.
Michael fights for Israel and the ultimate purpose of the victory, is that the offspring come to hold to the testimony of Jesus: That which was concealed in the old revealed and made new in the new.
The Song of Moses Ch 15: right before the 666 of a unholy trinity: The dragon, beast and false prophet.
Unclean spirits like frogs (One of the plaques in Egypt, symbolic of their gods). Demonic spirits who go abroad to kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty.
God is on the throne, and is outworking his purposes, stay awake keep in purity, do not act like Ham when you see sin and the impact of any fall, but walk in the light in humility and wash each others feet.
Thank God its defined by a Hebrew Word: God the author of language who has resurrected it for these last days Wants us to take great courage that he is the Sovereign over all and he is outworking his Word and his prophetic sweetness to those who believe and bitterness to those who reject the Lamb.
Revelation Ch 17
Seated on many waters and people drunk – with immorality and the blood of the saints. This shows the division and the distinction you are in the world and the fall or you are redeemed through the blood of the lamb.
(V3 – echoes of Jesus in the wilderness)
Revelation Ch 18 v20 – Praise God – Judgement, this is a theme of the book and it is one we are to reciprocate. We are to rejoice in the truth that God the just Judge will bring Judgement. This should also console when the spirit of this world defends terrorism.
A millstone: Against all things that prevent children in believing in the true nature of God.
Admonition is defined as changing the created order. Abomination is the opposite to the Worship of God.
(V24 Abel the first. Cain built the first City).
Revelation Ch 19
After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out, ‘Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God
This is hope! This is the sound of cleanness and redemption. This is the sound of an incorruptible seed that saved from the fall, and has in corrupted men and women into his Chorus, into the Song he Sang Hebrews Ch 2 v12.
V3: Once more they cried out, ‘Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up forever and ever.
This is directly linked to Ch 14 v11.
The will of God through Salvation, is to bring us into alignment with his judgement, against that which is ungodly and demonic.
And the 24 elders and four living creatures add to the chorus, their ‘Amen and their Hallelujah’.
The sound of this song is filled with a Joy and light. It is the passing of darkness and terrorism.
This sound is the Joy of life as God originally intended.
This sound is the reality, of the blood Jesus Shed so that we may know the truth of it, even as Betsy Ten Boom knew it in the prison camp.
It is the reuniting of family, after all the horrors.
This is reciprocation.
But then, and this I don’t fully understand, but at the close of this sequence of rejoicing a voice comes from the throne, ‘Praise our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, small and great’ – is this spoken by Jesus. Is this the source of are Song, heralding his unity with his word not returning void: The worship and honour of his Father, leaving his greatness unto last to seal the song that started from the very back of the great congregation. He was heard, in that he feared: Father forgive them.
Small and great is a reoccurring them in the book, in a negative and positive sense. Really, it is to affirm that no man or women is excluded from having to make a personal ABC as to which foundation head they want to drink from.
John Ch 17 v1-8
It’s amazing how infrequent God directly speaks in the book of Revelation. The humility of are God. And it reveals the purpose of hearing his voice, his heart is to lift us up and out, it is that we might know him, the living God and his Son Jesus Christ, he has come to make us Worshippers who worship him in the spirit of truth, that he loves us and has redeemed us through his blood.
The marriage supper of the lamb. Dining with Jesus.
6,000 years man has been on planet earth. And as Francis Chan pointed out in his recently released youtube on Israel, add to that the millennium reign of Christ and you have 7,000 – and a Sabbath of his rest.
Thus the New heavens and the New Jerusalem are into the 8th, the redemption of the bride through the Word of God having come full circle. The joining of heaven and earth.
Revelation Ch 21 v5-7
The one who conquers, John Ch 17 v1-8, the ones who know they are not the Christ but that I am the rock upon which they stand. Holding onto his testimony, the lion of the tribe of Judea, who overcame on our behalf: Father & Son.
Relationship, necessitates reciprocation – and to conquer we must obey his voice: Come out of her my people. World Wide Wash, through a World Wide Internet: Every nation and tribe and family.
John closes this book having been commanded not to add or subtract from it.
He closes it, like the 24 elders and the four living creatures, and the multitude by reciprocating the Word of God, by saying: Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven: Father.
Surely, I am coming soon. And John pens – ‘AMEN. Come Lord Jesus.
Come as Lord of Lord and king of kings in my own life and all the Churches and over the whole of creation.
Come as the Lord, not as ‘not so Lord’, but as the cleanser and purifier of all who who will believe and hold onto your life and testimony.
Come as the Lord, No demonic influences or idol frogs, or Buddha’s or Black stones full of idols.
But the sound is not negative in tone, its ‘Come Lord Jesus’, honoring my mothers request that she asked in response to the old Jerusalem being cast into that SEA – the wrong waters. The fruitless news of religion without the sap from the Vine.
Inspired by his word, the living waters, she asked. And Jesus who is always true to the word of his promises when in faith always reciprocates. It isn’t by chance that she asked, did not Jesus commit his own mother to his keeping.
What is it to you? If I call him up the mount of transfiguration, and if I will that he pen of my return after you have all past your time here on earth.
As he knows the sound of my heart beat: The sound that asked who would betray me, he noticed the women who worshipped, he noticed Judas was stealing in the Spirit of Achan the diverse garments of Babylon. He is a man after my own heart, and as such he is able to communicate the last cannon of scripture.
To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood
We love him as he first loved us.
Amen, Come Lord Jesus!
The Grace of the Lord Jesus be with all: small and great, consistent from first to last. Amen
The grace of Jesus that is the demarcation from the void and deep waters covered by darkness.
