A Better Covenant

[rosered]

 

AMEN  MARIE ,

   JUGGHEAD   , ALL  :HeartThrob: :HeartThrob: :HeartThrob:
  JACOB saw the ladder many angels / messenger of God would   rise and fall   ascend and descend  upon    !
  this ladder is the Son of Man  and the  Son of God      the great gulf fixed none will go to the FATHER except by  HIM

  GEN 28 Jacob's Ladder
...11He came to a certain place and spent the night there, because the sun had set; and he took one of the stones of the place and put it under his head, and lay down in that place.


12He had a dream, and behold, a ladder was set on the earth with its top reaching to heaven; and behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.

13And behold, the LORD stood above it and said, "I am the LORD, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie, I will give it to you and to your descendants....  NOT THE GOD OF THE DEAD BUT THE LIVING GOD!!

  OUR inheritance is  Spiritual   and the gifts come though the HOLY SPIRIT OF THE FATHER AND SON   AND ALL WITH HIM   gathered already     LIVING ACTIVE AND BREATHING THE  BREATH OF LIFE into our being       doing the Holy works in us from the foundation of the world      ,,,   

  IT SURE IS ABOUT FOLLOWING  JESUS  AND SEEING JESUS   !!     JOHN 1 Jesus Calls Philip and Nathanael
43The next day Jesus decided to set out for Galilee. Finding Philip, He told him, "Follow Me." 44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.

45Philip found Nathanael and told him, "We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, the One whom the prophets foretold—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

46"Can anything good come from Nazareth?" Nathanael asked.

"Come and see," said Philip.

47When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, He said of him, "Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit."

48"How do You know me?" Nathanael asked.

Jesus replied, "Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree."

49"Rabbi," Nathanael answered, "You are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!"

50Jesus said to him, "Do you believe just because I told you I saw you under the fig tree?


You will see greater things than these." 51Then He declared, "Truly, truly, I say to all of you that you will see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."

  FULFILLING ALL THINGS BY HIS SPIRIT OF LIFE BY THE WORD OF LIFE    moving in and though us living  beings .... :HeartThrob:

  Ezek 1 Vision of the Four Wheels
14And the living beings ran to and fro like bolts of lightning. 15Now as I looked at the living beings, behold, there was one wheel on the earth beside the living beings, for each of the four of them. 16The appearance of the wheels and their workmanship was like sparkling beryl, and all four of them had the same form, their appearance and workmanship being as if one wheel were within another....

Anyone wonder what the cherubims of GODS GLORY   are   above the mercy seat Paul  could not discuss  in his written account at the time , but would come by the revealing of Jesus Christ testimony    being by the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY  and the fulfilling all things   are about  in  Hebrews 9

The Earthly Tabernacle
...4 containing the golden altar of incense and the gold-covered ark of the covenant.

Inside the ark were the gold jar of manna, Aaron's staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.


5Above the ark were the cherubim of glory, overshadowing the mercy seat.

But we cannot discuss these things in detail now.

6When everything had been prepared in this way, the priests entered regularly into the outer room to perform their sacred duties....
   
It is so perfect  we   will  share this also !!!!7 but into the second, only the high priest enters once a year, not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance. 8 The Holy Spirit is signifying this, that the way into the holy place has not yet been disclosed while the outer tabernacle is still standing, 9 which is a symbol for the present time. Accordingly both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot make the worshiper perfect in conscience, 10 since they relate only to food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until a time of reformation.

11 But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation; 12 and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

15 For this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant,


so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.


16 For where a covenant is, there must of necessity be the death of the one who made it.

17 For a covenant is valid only when men are dead, for it is never in force while the one who made it lives.


18 Therefore even the first covenant was not inaugurated without blood.


19 For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the Law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,


20 saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God commanded you." 21 And in the same way he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry with the blood. 22 And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

23 Therefore it was necessary for the copies of the things in the heavens to be cleansed with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.


24 For Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself,


now to appear in the presence of God for us;



25 nor was it that He would offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the holy place year by year with blood that is not his own.


26 Otherwise, He would have needed to suffer often since the foundation of the world;


but now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.



27 And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment,


28 so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those who eagerly await Him.\ \ 


OH blessed is He whom dies in the Lord from now on   !!!   REV 14 The Three Angels and Babylon's Fall.........


...12Here is a call for the endurance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.


13And I heard a voice from heaven telling me to write, "Blessed are the dead — those who die in the Lord from this moment on.'" "Yes," says the Spirit,


"- they will rest from their labors, for their deeds will follow them."


14And I looked and saw a white cloud, and seated on the cloud was One like the Son of Man, with a golden crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand....


HIS CREATION IS BEING SET FREE !   THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE     from the   labours  of fruitless and  futile  doings   of the vanities of men worship  and worship of angels  , messengers       and   the power of darkness   into the Light and Life in the liberty   of being  the sons of God  doing those living works as wheels within the wheels    as lightning   flashes to and fro      quickening in the SPIRIT OF LIFE     of those dead bodies   of darkness give the Light of Life  , being the Christ in you and  giving the  life giving   gift  of  light to  men ..........

JOHN 12

  If I be lifted up from the earth I will draw all men unto ME  [LIGHT TO SHINE OUT OF THE DARKNESS ]    AS   GODS WISDOM IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM ]  DAN12


  23But Jesus replied, "The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.


24Truly, truly, I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a seed; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.


SAME FOR US ALSO  FOLLOWING JESUS CHRIST  INTO DEATH  , WHEN IT DIES THE SEED / WORD OF GOD WILL BEAR MUCH  FRUIT  TO HONOR GOD THE HOLY FATHER   ALSO  BY THE SPIRIT OF LIFE  NOW WORKING IN AND THOUGH YOU  !!!!!


25Whoever loves his life will lose it, but whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, My servant will be as well. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.

27Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? 'Father, save Me from this hour'? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour. 28Father, glorify Your name!"

Then a voice came from heaven: "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."

29The crowd standing there heard it and said it had thundered. Others said that an angel had spoken to Him.

30In response, Jesus said, "This voice was not for My benefit, but yours.


31Now judgment is upon this world; now the prince of this world will be cast out.


32And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself." 33He said this to signify the kind of death He was going to die.

34The crowd replied, "We have heard from the Law that Christ will remain forever. So how can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?"

35So Jesus told them, "For a little while longer, the Light will be among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of light."

After Jesus had spoken these things, He went away and hid Himself from them.

Daniel 12   THIS WORD  BY THE HOLY SPIRIT being fulfilled at the   resurrection of  Jesus Christ  IS   RISEN  , that was and is and  will be    so   AMEN!!

THE LIGHT AND KNOWLEDGE OF GOD  WILL SHINE FORTH  and  shall be  7  times brighter than the SUN /SON   Isaiah 30  God's Mercies
...25On every lofty mountain and on every high hill there will be streams running with water on the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.


26The light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, on the day the LORD binds up the fracture of His people and heals the bruise He has inflicted.


27Behold, the name of the LORD comes from a remote place; Burning is His anger and dense is His smoke; His lips are filled with indignation And His tongue is like a consuming fire;...

Those in the darkness will see the Light    and those in the Light will increase   by the  7 eyes and  7 Spirits of GODS   SPIRIT  THE LAMB  REV5
The Branch

      8'Now listen, Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who are sitting in front of you—indeed they are men who are a symbol, for behold, I am going to bring in My servant the Branch. 9'For behold, the stone that I have set before Joshua; on one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave an inscription on it,' [/b]declares the LORD of hosts, 'and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. 10'In that day,' declares the LORD of hosts, 'every one of you will invite his neighbor to sit under his vine and under his fig tree.'"

THE seven seals open  and the  7s  will  fulfill the desTRUCTION  of Babylon in ONE DAY!!  AND THE INSTRUCTION OF THE LORD WILL FULFILL   ALL TRUTH  BY THE BRIGHTNESS OF HIS COMING ... Revelation 5:6
Then I saw a Lamb who appeared to have been slain, standing in the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which represent the sevenfold Spirit of God sent out into all the earth.

Psalm 103:12
As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

Jeremiah 31:34
"They will not teach again, each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' for they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them," declares the LORD, "for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more."

Jeremiah 50:20
'In those days and at that time,' declares the LORD, 'search will be made for the iniquity of Israel, but there will be none; and for the sins of Judah, but they will not be found; for I will pardon those whom I leave as a remnant.'

Zechariah 3:4
He spoke and said to those who were standing before him, saying, "Remove the filthy garments from him." Again he said to him, "See, I have taken your iniquity away from you and will clothe you with festal robes."

Zechariah 4:10
"For who has despised the day of small things? But these seven will be glad when they see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel-- these are the eyes of the LORD which range to and fro throughout the earth."

   John 4 22You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.


23But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.

24 God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth."...    setting those free from the filth of  lies and   dragons flood the earth swallowed up  to help the woman    that must be  removed by the fire of His coming  as  Babylons falling  in ONE DAY      within us all .......THE DAY OF THE LORD   


REV1 9I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance that are in Jesus, was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God and my testimony about Jesus. 10On the Lord's day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet, 11saying, "Write in a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea."...

explains what to look for  and experience  with the brightness of His coming ...    tearing down the strongholds    and setting the prisoners/captives   free    from this captivity     , the TRUTH SETS US FREE    from the lies  and filth of the flesh  mixing   and deathly wisdom the  whole wold lies in  that wickedness ....

Don't know if others have seen the glory of our Lord in a clock, (Which can be one perception of a wheel inside a wheel .....

The second hand is one wheel, constantly moving, Love has to constantly move

it causes the minute hand to move, Love causes compassion to move in us

the minute hand causes the hour hand to move, compassion causes forgiveness to move in us

if any one of these stop moving ..... it all comes to a stop

The face (identity) of the clock (Christ) is Love itself, it starts with Love and ends with Love .... but in actuality no beginning and no end since He has always been and always will be

What the mind may perceive as "time" ..... I see as "movement within a state of existence" with that state of existence being His kingdom .... His kingdom of Love .... We become Love, living in a kingdom of Love, constantly being moved by compassion in order to manifest forgiveness in this world of hatred caused by ignorance of truth ..... the truth of Love

WHAT AN INHERITANCE

Glory to Him by whom are all things ... from whom are all things ... for whom are all things

It reminds me too of how i often find my self thinking of it.. as the two ways of life.. Or foundations, that is, the basis of one's life, thoughts, etc, being based on either love or nonlove/self-interest.. That love flows outward and thus makes room for more love (God & His Spirit) to flow into one, and it becomes a stream.. Or based on self interest which is the energy flowing inward, which becomes like a vacuum.. going the wrong way, and eventually becoming 'empty' (a vacuum) because the new energy (of life/God) cannot flow into us when the energy/love is not flowing outward..

...which would be counterclockwise..? :Chinscratch: going backward.. descending..?

[eaglesway]

He replied, "The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 13This is why I speak to them in parables: 'Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.'...

if we view our movement as growing (energy flowing outward), ..... do not plants fold in upon themselves as they wither and die (energy flowing inward)? Are we not either growing or dying in the garden?

What else came to mind is ..... if your perspective of the clock is yourself and you are inside the clock (inside yourself/self interest) your viewpoint of the hands are going counterclockwise

Good illustrations.
After all, He came to give us life abundantly.
Was watching a little story; gave the concept that at the moment even the brightest person in the world is only using approx 15% of our mental capacity; ergo imagine increasing to 100% in the resurrection.
Add in the ability to perceive info from a literal godly perspective.
We are to be in a position to be ABOVE angels In Christ.
At the moment the flesh disrespects authority; is  self-focussed; Galations 5 points out the fruit of the flesh. 1 Tim 4 points out the deception that will be among us, and then encourages us to train for godliness.
Fortunately; 1 John 4 says that the one in us is greater than the one in the world.
I.M.O this life, for those being led in Christ, is the start of that training, which will be unlimited in the next phase.
All history points out mans' efforts versus God's provision.
Nothing can keep us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.
Hallelujah.

Thought for today:

Compassion is the key that unlocks the treasure chest of forgiveness that is filled with love

in other words:

Christ is the key that frees the Spirit of forgiveness that is filled with the Father
