How much Mani is still in you?

The fundamental doctrine of Manichaeism is its dualistic division of the universe into contending realms of good and evil: the realm of light (spirit), ruled by God, and the realm of Darkness (matter), ruled by Satan. Originally, the two realms were entirely separate, but in a primal catastrophe the realm of darkness invaded the realm of light, and the two became mixed and engaged in a perpetual struggle.

Oh really? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

What excites the human psyche is something concealed. This primal sense in humans excites the natural senses, which are vivified by the Spirit of Life. God is Spirit (John 4:22) and Moses wrote of such God. Abraham did not see God but he heard His voice. Moses did not see God but also heard His voice.

[Deuteronomy 4:15-16] Watch yourselves carefully, since you did not see any form on the day the LORD spoke to you at Horeb from the midst of the fire, so that you do not act corruptly and make a graven image for yourselves in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female.

An act of corruption is an attribution to something immaterial something visible, tangible and thereby controllable. In other words, what perverts God’s truth is man’s subjective interpretation. God cannot be handled or controlled by any created being. So, where does the desire to physically touch the invisible Creator come from? Why humans want to define God? Why humans too often insist on interpreting God their own subjective way? Is that perhaps a corrupt tendency and an act of pride? Human ego seeks gratification, importance and some significance as if it once possessed it, but lost it. This search for the lost glory is intuitive and quite subconscious.

This particle, of human psyche, drove occultists like Helena Blavatsky and Guido Von List to hypothesize and produce writings, which eventually seduced millions. Above anything else the enslaving human ego seeks supreme gratification. The long gone Aryan race insinuations not only hijacked and even enslaved many a psyche, but also bore the deadliest of all fruits.

This psychological particle to prove the yet unproven is ego-driven and not necessarily destiny-driven. There are true and false destinies, one comes from the Creator and the other from the ego of God’s created physical being. God’s gifts are pure, but they can be corrupted. His water is pure but only we can pollute it, just as we do with the air we breathe.

[James 1:14-17] But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death. Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.

So what happened? Every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights. So what happens down below? Are we like those polluting factories? Lust is only involved when flesh is present and where flesh is present self is also, and where self is there is the ego. Just think about it for a while. The spiritual person has a quite different perception than the purely natural one. The carnal man, in his search for gratification enslaves himself to that which he desires and frustrates the ego by not getting it. But when one gets what one desires then quite a different reality emerges and that which one has desired and then gotten all of a sudden loses the anticipated sparkle. Why is it so?

My dear friend there must be a much higher way. The Bible clearly portrays the ever craving for glory human ego that seeks to exalt itself above the Almighty. And yet the history of mankind marks the end of ego's aspirations, but hardly anyone pays attention to it. How many seek freedom from the imposed upon us constrains; and how many want the true liberation? I found the key with which I can unlock the mysteries of human mind and soul and with this key I am opening darkened with ignorance corridors. Why me? – Most are unwilling to venture into those “unpleasant” places lest their egos might strongly object… And, we must at all cost keep on satisfying this overfed monster…

Most of the time that overinflated ego’s mission ends in disaster. From the Tower of Babel to Pharaoh; from Nebuchadnezzar to Roman Caesars; and from Napoleon to Hitler until today the string of egos remains virtually unbroken. There must be a higher and wiser way, but are we willing to open our too often conceited minds and drink God’s unpolluted living water?

Imagine, you have reached your goal and God has even allowed you to control Him through with your own theology, what’s next? Have you reached immortality yet? Have you become god occupying the highest seat in the Universe? What’s next? Will your ego rest by then? No, it won't for the nature of human ego is such that after it becomes god it must seek yet another god to conquer him, her or it and endlessly so and this in fact ego’s bondage? This kind of servitude and enslavement is only used to attract and exploit. Playing with our ego is the number one business under heavens. Those who do not pay attention fall prey to these exploitations first. Once trapped their pride does not allow them to admit the awful mistake they have made so the culprit remains on the throne unchanged. The ego strangely “triumphs” over its user and possessor – you.

If you are willing to travel with me into those inner regions of human psyche and desire the true liberation, then this journey is worth the effort. There’s freedom from this terrible and very much deadly sickness, but you must first understand this: self-gratification is endlessly repetitious and never achieves what it craves. Period. Like a senseless roller coaster it achieves no lasting value for this constant ego gratification leads back to itself ping-ponging back and forth until one exhausts him or herself and perishes like a fool. That’s a fact. So we might as well start going elsewhere by choosing a completely different avenue.  

THE NEW AVENUE

We get exited about the crown of glory of which the Bible speaks (1Peter 5:4), I know that it is written, but examine its basic psychology. Do you really need the crown of glory; for what for being a part of God? Do you desire that crown, and if you do than for whom, for what, what do it do for you? You want to be glorious, but why? Who will praise and adore you and is this praise and adoration so important to you? What do you prove by this desire and want? To whom you wont to prove something and what? Look beyond; do you glean any satisfaction from it? What turns you and what drives your senses?  What’s important to you in this life and beyond? Do you want angels to bow before you and God the Almighty planting on your head a crown of glory? What crown would be the most suitable to you? What gems and what quality of gold would be the best to satisfy your desire?

So many people live for the crystal gates, palaces and golden streets; their hearts are set on gold and that palace because their heart is really set on these things down here on earth. They have not tasted yet the other realm’s glory, which is beyond their comprehension. They know nothing of being one with God and of being satisfied with that. They have not come yet to the self-nullified state of the prodigal son who said, [Luke 15:19] “I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired men.” Perhaps they are not sons but only hired hands?

Since childhood we suckled on the fairytales about kings, queens, princes, princesses and coronations of dumb peasants for that really turns us on. We have been brainwashed and shackled with an aspiring to greatness simple peasant’s mentality. Over time we have mixed into these unobtainable fairytales our own aspirations and got stuck. And so we have developed an ego-pampered mentality catering to those dreamy egos that occupy the throne. To unseat this king or queen from this ego throne would take the highest wisdom, which is the perfect gift from above.

[James 1:5] But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

In order to succeed one would have to strictly adhere to God’s gift of wisdom and nothing else. But, what is this success you have just mentioned – you might have asked? Well, there is no real success in gratifying your ego anyway; so what’s the opposite?

God has no ego nor He does seek to gratify something that is completely foreign to Him. He is above it all. God needs nothing… except one. God does not aspire to achievement or attainment. He does not need to be inspired, but He does inspire those limited in space and time human beings. And that gives Him great joy. We get excited because we are in time’s progression; therefore we anticipate and imagine what it would be like when we get what we have been dreaming of. God is not suspended in time or anything to be suspended in. He is.

He needs you to represent Him down here on earth. He is; without trying to be, ‘I AM that I AM’ means exactly that. The sense of just being is wonderful. The same existence can be yours having the same mentality. However, without Jesus, these days, it is impossible. Why? Because He is the shortest way to the Father and once you dig Jesus well, you will in no time meet the Father. I have already met Him and that is the reason why I can navigate you to Him.

‘You are careful and distrustful because there are so many coo-coos out there’ then that’s okay too. So many people try to sell you something by enticing you to watch their videos and hear their lengthy lectures. They rely on the training in human psychology, but for commerce only. I sell nothing. I am a good man sent by God to you and I am not putting anything on just to get some potential buyer to fall into my web. That’s it. Simple. 

 I do not ask you to believe me or even trust me. Just follow the thoughts and you will notice something happening to you that makes you truly free. If you are timid, then you are not ready for freedom; you are in a pocket of someone who told you to look out for this sort of trouble. You are not thinking on your own two feet, but rather through an indoctrination program conducted by someone else. 

So if you are still open to go further then here is the key that unlocks your psyche; otherwise go your own way and read no more.

One hovers over all of His creation for one is one with Him, one Spirit, one mind, no more seeking and aspiring, but only being. In that being is everything; never too much and never too little; it means to be complete and in total peace.

[ACTS 17:28] IN HIM WE LIVE AND MOVE AND HAVE OUR BEING

It all begins with repentance and the humbling of pride. Just as no liquid substance can flow into blob of clay or glass, but can only fill and empty vessel, like a glass or a cup, even a bucket, so it must be with the revelation of knowing the Creator as He really is. That's just the basics.

This book will change your life for the glorious better.

Tares, Field, Seed & Attachments

God has not determined as to who is who, field or tares, these are people's fruits. Many people do not want anything after they die, they are content to turn into nothing.

We are concerned about humanity, because we know that we are God's sons, His seed, because our FRUIT is such. We are peacemakers, and love our Heavenly Father, whom Jesus reveled to us. It is sad and can be painful to sow the seed in people and then let them go.

There are people who were told about the new birth, the sacrifice of Jesus, salvation, yet they refused for they love themselves and their wretched flesh, which they did not even create for they came to this earth by God's grace. They are blind, but, sometimes after many years the seed you have planted in them sprouts. I have seen people saved 10 or 15 years later after the sowing the Gospel Seed in them, but by then, some of them were incurably sick and hoped only for salvation after they die. They became wonderful Christians, generous and loving, but died from the damages sin caused in their lives.

[Ezekiel 33:11] “Say to them, ‘As I live!’ declares the Lord GOD, ‘I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn back, turn back from your evil ways! Why then will you die, O house of Israel?’

[Ecclesiastes 12:1] Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near when you will say, “I have no delight in them.” 

Conclusion: we must leave some people in peace after we have shared the Gospel with them.  If we have only the field mixed with field we have no life, if we have weeds growing in the field then we starve, but if we sow the good seed we have bread to eat.

[Luke 10:3-11] “Go; behold, I send you out as lambs in the midst of wolves. Carry no money belt, no bag, no shoes; and greet no one on the way. Whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’ If a man of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you. Stay in that house, eating and drinking what they give you; for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not keep moving from house to house. Whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat what is set before you; and heal those in it who are sick, and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’ But whatever city you enter and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say, ‘Even the dust of your city which clings to our feet we wipe off in protest against you; yet be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near.’

In other words, "Do not insist or 'bombard' anyone with the Gospel of Peace" for it is not the nature of shalom (God's peace, the word that concludes the Aaronic Benediction in Numbers 6:22-26), even shake the dust off your feet and go elsewhere. - Jesus said. Don not waste time.

To God flesh and blood has but a little meaning. God is Spirit. To Jesus His blood relatives had no meaning at all.

[Matthew 12:48-50] Someone said to Him, “Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You.” But Jesus answered the one who was telling Him and said, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” And stretching out His hand toward His disciples, He said, “Behold My mother and My brothers! “For whoever does the will of My Father who is in heaven, he is My brother and sister and mother.”

SPIRITUAL TRUE CONNECTION:

[Mark3:33-35] Answering them, He said, “Who are My mother and My brothers?” Looking about at those who were sitting around Him, He said, “Behold My mother and My brothers! “For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother and sister and mother.”

SPIRITUAL RELATIONSHIP:

[Luke 8:19-21] And His mother and brothers came to Him, and they were unable to get to Him because of the crowd. And it was reported to Him, “Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, wishing to see You." But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”

The attachment to just the flesh; turns us into fleshly people, but it does not mean that we should not care for our blood relatives, we should, but they also have the free will and their own private lives. 

I just finished another message on what is clean and unclean.
Take a listen. 
 

EINZIGARTIG

Original-Artikel auf Englisch

Du hast eine Intuition und einen Verstand, der über dein Gehirn und deine Seele hinausgeht. Dieser Bereich der göttlichen Inspiration heißt NESHAMAH. Nur dieser Bereich ist dafür verantwortlich, dass du so einzigartig bist. Die Meisten nutzen ihn nicht und ignorieren ihn gar, aber hast du schon einmal eine innere Warnung oder den Schmerz eines anderen Menschen gespürt oder bei einem Film geweint? Diese Sensibilität ist menschlich. Empathie und Sympathie, Mitleid und Liebe sind die Dinge, die das menschliche Wesen ausmachen. Das Gegenteil ist auch wahr: Kälte, Zynismus Profitgier und die Bereitschaft zu töten sind tierische Instinkte und sie schmälern dieses Besondere, das ich meine.

Höhere Weisheit

Dieser unterschwellige Killer-Instinkt funktioniert sehr gut in der Welt der Finanzen, aber wann ist das Maß voll? Die Antwort ist: nie, denn ein hoher Lebensstandard ist kostspielig und man hat nie genug um ihn aufrecht zu erhalten. Große Firmen beschäftigen viele Mitarbeiter, aber jedes Unternehmen muss etwas verkaufen, was die Massen haben möchten – ein endloser Kreislauf.

Warum braucht es Aufdringlichkeit, um etwas zu erhalten? Es gibt eine höhere Weisheit. Die britische Oberklasse lebt sie bis zu einem gewisse Grad, aber ihr fehlt die notwendige Voraussetzung, weise zu sein. Sie hat einen überaus hohen Anspruch an die Etikette und mit ihm die Einstellung „entweder so oder gar nicht“. ich habe nichts gegen Barone, Herzöge und Lords, aber eine gesellschaftliche Position und ein Titel nützen nichts, wenn die Weisheit fehlt. Das ist meine Erfahrung und Meinung ich werde das gleich näher erklären.

Die gleiche Kühnheit und Gewandtheit, mit der jemand für den eigenen Gewinn übervorteilt wird, könnte auch weise eingesetzt werden. Vornehmheit beruht nicht auf der Meinung anderer – denn dann müsste sie ständig zur Schau gestellt werden – sondern sie ist ein Resultat. Dieses Resultat nennt die Bibel „Früchte“ (Matthäus 7,20; Johannes 15,8; Galater 5,22-23). Diese Früchte sieht man zuerst im Privaten und nicht in der Öffentlichkeit. Du entdeckst ganz für dich allein, wie einzigartig du bist.

Der Glanz des Westens hat seinen Zenit erreicht. Die Show ist Normalität. Wer gut darin ist, verbirgt sich hinter einer protzigen Maske und ist nicht mehr er/sie selbst. Mit der Zeit wird so der äußere Schein perfektioniert – auf Kosten von NESHAMAH. Die belebende Kraft der göttlichen Inspiration versteckt sich schläft ein. Manchmal wacht sie nie wieder auf – und wenn sie aufwacht, dann meist in dem Augenblick, wenn sie ein sterbendes menschliches Wesen verlässt, ohne Früchte gebracht zu haben.

Ein oberflächliches Leben ist ein verschwendetes Leben und beraubt uns unserer Einzigartigkeit, die unter allen geschaffenen Wesen im ganzen Universum einmalig ist. Nicht nur die Engel begehren, in diese Dinge hineinzuschauen (1.Petrus 1,12), sondern – metaphorisch gesprochen – das ganze Universum.

Die bist ausgestattet mit jeder Fähigkeit und einem besonderen Sinn, der nicht nur sensationell und sinnlich ist – denn das hat seinen Ursprung im menschlichen Nervensystem – sondern intuitiv, geistlich und bewusst. Bist du in diese Regionen vorgedrungen? Oder bleibt dafür keine Zeit, weil die alltäglichen und äußerlichen Dinge dich zu sehr vereinnahmen?

Wer sind die Frieden-Stifter?

Ein Frieden-Stifter ist kein Vermittler oder jemand, der nur einen Kampf abbricht oder Friedensvereinbarungen aushandelt. Nein. Ein wirklicher Frieden-Stifter ist ein einzigartiger Mensch, ausgestattet mit der besonderen Gabe, über den Bereich der normalen Wahrnehmung hinaussehen zu können. Es ist jemand, der fest steht und nichts verteidigen muss, sondern unerschütterlich ist wie ein Felsen. Beachte die Bibelstelle: …alles getan habt, um fest zu stehen. (Epheser 6,13)

Fest stehen bedeutet nicht, eine Offensive zu starten, oder? Die nächsten Verse gehen noch tiefer.

So steht nun fest, eure Lenden umgürtet mit Wahrheit, bekleidet mit dem Brustpanzer der Gerechtigkeit und beschuht an den Füßen mit der Bereitschaft zur Verkündigung des Evangeliums des Friedens. [Epheser 6,14-15]

Wie um alles in der Welt kann jemand aus diesen Worten schließen, dass es sich hier um Kriegsführung handeln könnte? An dieser Stelle hat jemand seine Einzigartigkeit verloren. Das einzigartige Ich würde das richtig verstehen und das kommt durch die von dir aktivierte Fähigkeit des Begreifens und Erfassens. Wenn du diese spezielle Fähigkeit nie aktivierst, weil du einfach blind alles schluckst, was von der Kanzel fällt, dann verschwendest du dieses besondere Ich an eine blinde Indoktrination.

Durch NESHAMAH können wir die Stimme unseres himmlischen Vaters hören, indem wir den Fluss der neuen Offenbarungen erkennen. Gott wiederholt sich nicht gern und möchte nicht denselben Nagel immer und immer wieder einschlagen müssen. Wir nennen das überflüssig oder zwecklos, aber Gott geht es nicht um etwas Nutzloses. Trotzdem brauchen viele eine Wiederholung – aber warum? Es gibt nur eine Erklärung dafür: beim ersten Mal ist nichts hängen geblieben. Ich denke, viele stellen sich absichtlich dumm.

Religiosität ist dumm und nimmt uns den Funken der Göttlichkeit. Sie stiehlt von dem besonderen Ich, deiner rechtmäßigen Einzigartigkeit und der außergewöhnlichen Ähnlichkeit mit dem Schöpfer. Du bist Seine Erweiterung auf der Erde, Sein Spiegelbild – mehr noch: TZELEM, ein geistlicher Spiegel.

 

Die Einzigartigkeit Jesu

Die Menschen fürchten sich und wollen nichts von der Göttlichkeit Jesu wissen, obwohl das so lächerlich einfach zu verstehen ist. Wenn so wie hier darüber geredet wird, macht das einige vorübergehend blind. Ihr Gleichgewicht ist gestört und ihr Gehirn zögert, dieses klare und logische Wissen zu verarbeiten. Ihre Verlegenheit zeigt sich in einer seltsamen Schweigsamkeit. Es werden weder Fragen gestellt noch Kommentare abgegeben. Ihr altes und baufälliges Boot der Religion hängt bewegungslos an einem rostigen Anker.

Jesus wurde vom Heiligen Geist gezeugt. Er sagte: „Gott ist Geist. Wenn ihr Mich seht, seht ihr den Vater. Mein Vater und Ich sind eins.“ Johannes schrieb: „Jesus war das Wort und das Wort war bei Gott und Gott war das Wort.“ Jesus sagte, dass Er aus eigenem Antrieb nichts tun konnte. Was Er den Vater tun sah oder sagen hörte, dass tat und sagte Er ebenfalls. Er sagte: „Der Vater ist größer als Ich.“

Einige werden sagen, dass diese Aufzählung voller Unstimmigkeiten ist, andere, dass sie verwirrend ist. Aber sie ist weder unstimmig noch verwirrend. Lass es dir von der NESHAMAH in mir erklären. Ich rate dir, deine NESHAMAH zu aktivieren und das besondere Ich in dir zum Leben zu erwecken. Wenn du das tust, hast du die Möglichkeit, ein neues Boot mit einem neuen Anker zu bekommen, diesen neuen Anker einzuziehen und das Boot lossegeln zu lassen.

Fünf Fragen und Antworten

Frage 1:  Wer schuf Adam aus dem Staub der Erde?

Antwort:  Gott, der Geist ohne Bild und Gestalt.

Frage 2:  Was war Adam?

Antwort: Eine neue Schöpfung mit einer neuen Genetik.

Frage 3:  Warum finden wir den Stammbaum Jesu im Lukas-Evangelium?

Antwort: Der gleiche Geist, der Heilige Geist, der den physischen Adam schuf, schuf auch den physischen Jesus in einer existierenden genetischen Umgebung – dem Bauch Marias. Daher wurde der Stammbaum des physischen Jesus im Lukas-Evangelium aufgezeichnet.

Frage 4: Legte der Vater Sein Leben für uns nieder?

Antwort: Jesus erhielt ein Gebot von Seinem Vater, dem Er gehorchen konnte oder nicht gehorchen konnte. Aber aus Seiner selbst erbrachten Frucht des Gehorsams legte Er Im Gehorsam gegenüber dem Gebot des Vaters Sein Leben aus eigener Initiative nieder (Johannes 10,18).

Frage 5:  Wer ist größer: der Vater oder der Sohn?

Antwort: Jesus: „Ich gehe zum Vater, denn der Vater ist größer als Ich.“ (Johannes 14,28)

Das wäre geklärt. Gott ist Gott und Er kann tun was Ihm beliebt. Aber war Adam Gott, weil er vom Geist geschaffen worden war? – Nein. War der irdische Sohn von Maria Gott? – Wiederum nein. Warum? Wegen der folgenden zwei Bibelverse:

…ihr habt keinerlei Gestalt gesehen an dem Tag, als der HERR am Horeb mitten aus dem Feuer zu euch redete. Handelt nicht zu eurem Verderben indem ihr euch ein geschnitztes Bild macht, das einem männlichen oder weiblichen Menschen gleicht. [5.Mose 4,15-16]

Jesus war ein Jude und Er erklärte der samaritischen Frau, dass die Erlösung von den Juden kommt (Johannes 4,22-24).

Meint nicht, dass Ich gekommen bin, um das Gesetz oder die Propheten aufzulösen. Ich bin nicht gekommen um aufzulösen, sondern um zu erfüllen. Denn wahrlich, Ich sage euch: Bis der Himmel und die Erde vergehen, soll auch nicht ein Jota oder ein Strichlein von dem Gesetz vergehen, bis alles erfüllt ist. [Matthäus 5,17-18]

Jesus erfüllte das Gesetz. Fleisch und Blut sind nur der „Behälter“ für die Göttlichkeit, aber der Körper (KLEEPAH im alten Hebräisch) als solcher kann nicht Gott sein. Geistliches kann nicht mit Fleischlichem gemischt werden. Jedoch kann der Inhalt meines und deines „Behälters“ göttlich sein. Einige werden einen Status wie den Henochs erreichen, andere nicht.

Was uns von Jesus unterscheidet ist, dass Er eine völlig neue Schöpfung in einem bestehenden genetischen Pool war. Obwohl auch wir göttlich sind, kamen wir nicht auf die Erde um unser Leben für die ganze Welt niederzulegen und so den Preis für sie zu bezahlen und dann auferweckt zu werden.

Die vollkommene Abhängigkeit vom Vater macht Jesus so einzigartig und zum erstgeborenen Sohn Gottes. Nachdem Er dem Vater gehorcht hat, gestorben war und auferweckt wurde, sagte Er etwas Einmaliges und Beispielloses:

„Rühre mich nicht an! Denn Ich bin noch nicht aufgefahren zum Vater. Geh aber hin zu Meinen Brüdern und sprich zu ihnen: Ich fahre auf zu Meinem Vater und eurem Vater und zu Meinem Gott und eurem Gott.“ [Johannes 20,17]

Jesu Einzigartigkeit besteht in Seinem Opfer und Seiner Auferstehung, nach der Er uns als Seine Brüder und Schwestern bezeichnete. Sein Vater wurde unser Vater und Sein Gott unser Gott. Einfach gesagt: durch Ihn kommen wir zum Vater und können Abba zu Ihm sagen. Wir beten zu unserem Vater. Jesus ist der erstgeborene Sohn, der göttliche Überwinder, der den Weg zurück zum Vater vorbereitet und dafür bezahlt hat.

Jesus als den Vater sehen

Gott ist Geist und Jesus war auf der Erde als Er sagte: „Wer mich sieht, sieht den Vater“ (vgl. Johannes 14,7). Er muss also von etwas Geistlichem geredet haben und erklärte: „…Die Worte, die Ich zu euch rede, rede Ich nicht von Mir selbst; der Vater aber, der in Mir bleibt, tut Seine Werke. Glaubt Mir, dass Ich in dem Vater bin und der Vater in Mir ist; wenn aber nicht, so glaubt um der Werke selbst willen!“ [Johannes 14,10-11]

Jesus tat die übernatürlichen Werke, indem Er den Vater beobachtete und Seine Lehren kamen nicht von Ihm, sondern vom Vater. Also hatte nicht Seine irdische Gestalt etwas mit der Göttlichkeit zu tun, sondern Seine Abhängigkeit vom Vater. Sie ist der Schlüssel zum Verständnis Seiner Göttlichkeit.

Er ist die Widerspiegelung des Willens Gottes, der Spiegel Gottes, des Geistes. Er ist die Ausstrahlung Seiner Herrlichkeit und die exakte Darstellung Seines Wesens… [Hebräer 1,3]

Die einfache Antwort, dass Jesus Gott ist, wäre nicht ausreichend. Bevor Jesus vom Vater auf die Erde kam, war  Er, wie Johannes sagt, im Schoß Gottes. Er war ein Geist mit Ihm, aber Er war noch nicht siegreich. Als Er starb und wieder auferstand, triumphierte Er. Jetzt ist Er wieder im Schoß des Vaters, aber nun sonnt Er sich in größerer Herrlichkeit.

Er ist der Weg zum Vater, aber wir kommen nicht durch einen Gott zu Gott oder haben gar drei Götter: Vater, Sohn und Heiligen Geist. Denn was ist dann mit den Engeln?

Logik

Der Verstand initiiert – der Vater. Die Seel fühlt – Jesus. der Geist treibt an – der Heilige Geist. Der Körper führt aus – die Engel.

Jesus kam nicht, um aus sich den Helden einer neuen Religion zu machen, die im Widerstreit zum Judaismus steht. Er reinigte uns vom religiösen Ritualismus. Er öffnete den Weg zu Gott und bezeichnete Ihn als unseren Vater.

Der Erstgeborene wurde zuerst im Himmel geboren

Der Erstgeborene unter den Brüdern (Römer 8,29), der Erstgeborene der Schöpfung (Kolosser 1,15+18) wurde geschaffen und geboren und Er selbst machte das ganz deutlich als Er zu Maria sagte: „Geh zu Meinen Brüdern“ und „Mein Gott und euer Gott“. Wenn Jesus im Himmel (der geistlichen Welt) nicht der erstgeborene Sohn wäre, müsste Er der einzige Gott ohne Anfang und Ende sein. Aber der Erstgeborene hat einen Anfang, weil er ein Sohn, also geboren ist.

Die Menschen wollen einen menschlichen Gott haben, weil das bequemer ist. Aber eigentlich ist das unsere eigennützige Verweigerung gegenüber den Wegen Gottes. Wir haben uns falsch entschieden und sind den falschen Weg gegangen und kaum jemand kennt den Weg des Friedens.

Vom 1.Mose bis Sacharja hat Gott bestimmt, dass alle Erstgeborenen der ganzen Schöpfung Ihm gehören, sowohl Menschen als auch Tiere. Das muss also etwas ganz besonderes sein. Um etwas Besonderes zu sein, müssen wir hier auf der Erde nach dem Schatz graben. Dann brachte Gott jedoch eine Veränderung.

Nimm die Leviten anstelle aller Erstgeborenen unter den Söhnen Israel und das Vieh der Leviten anstelle deren Vieh; und die Leviten sollen Mir gehören. Ich bin der HERR. [4.Mose 3,45]

Jesus war der Erstgeborene und der Hohepriester. Das ist von höchster Bedeutung, denn der Erstgeborene, der den Mutterschoß im Physischen geöffnet hat, kann geistlich das gleiche auch tun. Wir können überwinden und über das Unausweichliche triumphieren, weil der erstgeborene Sohn auch dafür den Preis bezahlt hat (Johannes 8,51).

Niemand hat Gott jemals gesehen; der eingeborene Sohn, der im Schoß des Vaters ist, der hat Ihn kundgemacht. [Johannes 1,18]

Gott zu sehen wäre eine Gestalt zu sehen. Jesus aber hat Ihn uns kundgetan – Ihn vorgestellt, reflektiert und als Spiegelbild Gottes strahlte Er den Vater zu uns herunter. Jesus war wie der Bote eines Königs oder ein Botschafter, der nur das sagt, was der König sagt. Der Botschafter muss genau das tun, was der König möchte, das er tut. Wenn der Botschafter umgebracht wird, stirbt nicht der König, sondern er wird kommen und seinen Botschafter rächen. Jesu Tod symbolisiert den Hass der Menschen auf Gott und das (unbewusste) Verlangen, Gott los zu werden. Das ist ganz offensichtlich: es begann bei den Erbauern des Turms von Babel und setzte sich durch unablässige Gewalt und zahllose Kriege bis zum heutigen Tag fort.

Der von oben kommt, ist über allen; wer von der Erde ist, ist von der Erde und redet von der Erde her. Der vom Himmel kommt, ist über allen. [Johannes 3,31]

Und Er sprach zu ihnen: „Ihr seid von dem, was unten ist, Ich bin von dem, was oben ist; ihr seid von dieser Welt, Ich bin nicht von dieser Welt. [Johannes 8,23]

Die irdische Sichtweise macht uns ausschließlich irdisch, hält uns unten und macht uns ziemlich gewöhnlich. Das besondere Ich ist von oben und wer von oben ist, versteht Gott, Sein Königreich und Sein Wort.

Von oben schauen

Wir wollen versuchen, uns von oben zu sehen. Sieh dich so wie Gott dich sieht. Jesus sah dich und Er kam herunter im Gehorsam gegenüber dem Willen Gottes. Sein Sohn zu sein ist nicht das gleiche wie ein Mietling, Diener oder Sklave zu sein. Söhne sind Teil der göttlichen Familie – und das sind auch wir, aber wir wussten das da noch nicht. wir brauchten den Erstgeborenen, damit Er uns den Weg in diese lang verloren gewesene Realität zeigt. Jetzt ist das unsere Realität. Jesus kam aus dem Schoß des Vaters und diente nur drei Jahre auf der Erde. Aber das reichte für jeden einzigartigen Sohn und jede einzigartige Tochter, um das Ziel Seiner Mission zu verstehen.

Auch du warst bei Gott. Du kommst von oben. Erinnerst du dich nicht daran? Naja, kein Problem…

Der Helfer aber, der Heilige Geist, den der Vater senden wird in Meinem Namen, der wird euch alles lehren und euch an alles erinnern, was Ich euch gesagt habe. [Johannes 14,26]

Du kannst nicht Gott und alles was Ihn betrifft, leichtfertig kennen. Er sagt immer wieder: „Suche mich.“ Je mehr du Ihn suchst, umso mehr wirst du finden und du wirst dich daran erinnern, wer du im Himmel warst. Ich weiß, wer ich war, wer ich bin und wer ich sein werde. Ich bin ein Bruder von Jesus und all den Propheten. In diesem Fall ist die Genetik bedeutungslos.

…als die Morgensterne miteinander sangen und alle Söhne Gottes vor Freude jauchzten? Du weißt es, denn damals warst du schon geboren, und die Zahl deiner Tage ist groß! [Hiob 38,7+21]

Ich war auch dabei und noch heute habe ich diese immer größer werdende Freude in mir.

Geh mit mir auf die fantastische Suche nach der göttlichen Logik, ohne die nichts geklärt werden kann. Erwecke dieses besondere Ich in dir und sei dankbar dafür, dass jemand dir den Weg gezeigt hat und du mit Seinem Lehrer in Kontakt gekommen bist. So wie du Jesus dankbar bist, danke dem Vater für diejenigen, die Er dir über den Weg schickt um dich naher zu Ihm zu bringen. Er schärft dein Bewusstsein und veredelt dich wie Gold und Silber. Es ist nicht notwendig zu sterben und von Würmern zersetzt zu werden. Es gibt ein Versprechen, das Jesus uns gab und das darin gegründet ist, Sein Wort zu halten – und genau das habe ich heute und hier getan.

Wahrlich, wahrlich, Ich sage euch: „Wenn jemand Mein Wort bewahren wird, der wird den Tod niemals sehen.“ [Johannes 8,51]

Glaubst du das? Nimmst du das an? Diese Worte sind nichts als eine Saat. Erlaube ihr, in dieses besondere Ich zu sinken und zu keimen. Lass einen Baum daraus wachsen und bringe zu gegebener Zeit Früchte hervor. Bleib locker.

Shalom

You have an intuition and a mind beyond your brain and soul. It is called Neshamah a region of divine inspiration. That region alone is responsible for you being so special. Most do not access it and most remain ignorant regarding it, but have you ever felt premonition, someone’s pain, or cried watching a movie? This sensitivity is human. Empathy and sympathy, compassion and love make up the fabric of the human being. The opposites are also true. Cold, cynical and calculated ways in terms of gain and the going for the kill are only animal instincts and these take away from the distinction of which I speak.

HIGHER WISDOM

The stalking killing instinct works well in the financial sphere, but when enough is enough? The answer is never, because a high lifestyle costs and to keep it up one never has enough. Big business employs many people but any company must sell a product the public wants to buy. It’s endless. 

Why one must be pushy in order to gain? There is a higher wisdom. To a certain extent imperial Brits brood in it but lack the necessary requirement of being wise. They seem to stay on the same level of a quite refined etiquette and with which goes the ‘my way or the highway.’ Barons, dukes, lords and sirs are fine with me, but a social position and title amount to nothing when wisdom lacks. That's my experience and my opinion and soon I will explain myself in detail.  

The same ferociousness and prowess used for gainful overpowering can be used but wisely. Refinement is not so much the opinion of others—for this sort of refinement would have to be repeatedly paraded—but rather the true outcome. This outcome the Bible calls fruits. (Matthew 7:20; John 15:8, Galatians 5:22-23) These fruits are first noticed in private and never in public. It is a discovery as to how special you are, all on your own.

The western glamour has reached its zenith. The norm is show. Whoever is good at it puts on a pretentious mask of someone one is not. In time one perfects just the outside at the cost of Neshamah. The vivifying force of divine inspiration goes into hiding and hibernates. Sometimes it never wakes, but when it does, it is at the moment when it exits a dying human form; unfruitful. A squandered life on just the surface type of living robs us of our uniqueness, which is found among all created creatures in the entire Universe. Not only angels are eager to look into these things, metaphorically speaking (1Peter 1:12), but also the entire Universe.

You are loaded with every ability and extra special sense, which are not only sensational and sensual, which originate only in your body’s nervous system, but also intuitive, spiritual and cognizant. Do you explore these regions? Or perhaps there is a little time for it because the ordinary external things preoccupy you too much? 

WHO ARE THE PEACEMAKERS?

A peacemaker is not an intermediary, someone who just breaks up a fight or negotiates peace agreements. No. A true peacemaker is a unique person endowed with special powers of seeing things beyond the scope of the common perceptions. It is someone who stands and does not even defend anything, but stands like a rock. Consider this verse. [Ephesians 6:13] (…) having done everything, to stand firm.

Standing firm does not mean to be on an offensive, does it? The next verses (14-15) go deeper. Stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH, and HAVING PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, and having shod YOUR FEET WITH THE PREPARATION OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE. 

How in the world could anyone conclude that it means warfare? Right here someone lost that special him or her. The special YOU understands it, and that comes from an activated by you faculty of cognizance. If you never stimulate this special capability by just blindly swallowing what falls down to you from an authoritative pulpit then you squander this special you on a blind indoctrination.

Because of Neshamah we can recognize our heavenly Father’s voice by recognizing the flow of new revelation. God does not like to repeat Himself and hammer down the same nail over and over again. We call it redundancy or uselessness and God is not after something useless. Nonetheless, many need repetitions, but why? There is only one reason: nothing sunk in the first time. I think that we make ourselves dull as if on purpose.

Religiousness is dull and takes away from us the spark of divinity. It takes from the special you your rightful uniqueness and that sublime semblance of the Creator. You are His extension on earth; even a reflection; more; TZELEM the spiritual mirror. 

UNIQUENESS OF JESUS

People are afraid and are unwilling to fathom the divinity of Jesus and yet it is so ridiculously simple. When it is presented, as I am about to do here, it temporarily blinds some. Their equilibrium is sort of disturbed and their brainwaves hesitate when trying to process this most logical and clear knowledge. The result of their quandary is a strange silence. No questions are being asked and no comments made. Their old dilapidated boat of religion is anchored down with a rusty old anchor and goes nowhere.

Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit. He said: ‘God is Spirit. If you see Me you see the Father. My Father and I are one. John wrote that Jesus was the Word and the Word was with God and was God. Jesus said, that of His own initiative He could do nothing. Whatever He see the Father do or say He does and say likewise. He said that His Father is greater than He.’

This list is full of discrepancies someone would say. Another would say that it is confusing. But there is no discrepancy or confusion here. Let the Neshamah in me explain it. I would advise you to activate your Neshamah and let the special you come alive. If you will, you could afford to get a new boat and a new anchor; then you will lift that new anchor and let your boat sail on.

FIVE QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

1. Q. Who created Adam from the dust of the ground?
A. God, who is Spirit without image or contour.
2. Q. What was Adam?
A. New genetics.
3. Q. Why the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke? 
A. The same Spirit, even the Holy Spirit, who created the physical Adam, also created physical Jesus in the existent genetic makeup - Mary’s womb. Hence, in the Gospel of Luke we have the genealogy of Jesus.
4. Q. Did the Father lay His life down for us?
A. Jesus received a commandment from the Father, which He could obey or disobey, but as His own brought forth fruit of obedience He laid His life down of His own accord in obedience to the Father’s commandment (John 10:18).
5. Q. Who is greater the Father or the Son?
A. (…) I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I (John 14:28). 

So that is clear. God is God and He can do whatever He wants. But was Adam God because the Spirit made him? — No. Was the physical Son of Mary Jesus God? — Also not. Why? Because of these two verses:

[Deuteronomy 4:15-16] (…) you did not see any form on the day the LORD spoke to you at Horeb from the midst of the fire (…) do not act corruptly and make a graven image for yourselves in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female.

Jesus was a Jew and told the Samaritan woman that salvation is of the Jews (John 4:22-24).

[Matthew 5:17-18] Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished.

Jesus fulfilled the law. Only flesh and blood can be containers of divinity, but the body itself (Ancient Hebrew KLEEPAH) cannot be God. One cannot mix spiritual aspects with fleshly. However, the contents can be divine, even yours and mine. Some achieve a state as that of Enoch; others don’t.

What separates Jesus from us is that He was a brand new creation within an existent genetic pool. Although we are divine too we did not come to earth to lay down our lives for the entire world and pay the price and then be raised from the dead.

The complete Father dependence makes Jesus unique as to being the firstborn Son of God. After He obeyed the Father, died and rose again He said something unique and unprecedented.

[John 20:17] Jesus said to her, “Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.’”

The uniqueness of Jesus is locked in His sacrifice and resurrection, after which He called us His brothers and sisters; His Father became our Father and His God our God. Simply said, through Him we come to the Father and call Him Abba. We pray to our Father. Jesus is the firstborn Son, divine overcomer, paying for and paving the way back to the Father.

SEEING JESUS AS THE FATHER

Since God is Spirit and Jesus was on earth when He said in John 14:7-11, “He who has seen Me has seen the Father” then He speaks of something spiritual. Jesus goes on to explain His words.  (…)  "The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works. Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe because of the works themselves."

The supernatural works Jesus did by watching the Father; and the teachings He gave came not from Jesus Himself but the Father. So the physical contour of Jesus had nothing to do with divinity, but rather the Father-dependence, which is the key to the understanding of His divinity.

He was the reflection of God’s will, the mirror of God the Spirit. He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature (Hebrews 1:3).

A simple answer that Jesus is God won’t do. Before Jesus came to earth from the Father He was, as John says, in the bosom of the Father, as one Spirit, but not yet triumphant. When He died and rose again He triumphed. Now He is again in the bosom of the Father, but bathing in greater glory.

He is the Way to the Father, but we do not go through a god to God or have three gods, the Father Son and the Holy Spirit. What about the angels?

LOGIC

My mind initiates – the Father. My soul feels - Jesus. My Spirit energizes – Holy Spirit. My body executes - Angels.

What Jesus came to do was not to make out of Him a new religious establishment’s hero, in competition with Judaism. He cleansed us from religious ritualism. He opened the way to God calling Him our Father.

THE FIRSTBORN WAS BORN IN HEAVEN  FIRST

The firstborn among brothers the firstborn of all creation was born and created (Romans 8:29; Colossians 1:15 & 18) and He Himself made it plain by saying to Mary, “Go to My brothers (…) your Father, and My God and your God.” If in heaven (the spiritual world) Jesus were not the firstborn then He would have been the only God who has no beginning and no end. Nonetheless, the firstborn son does have a beginning because He is called Son; and also born.

The reason why people want to have a human god is comfort. But actually it is our insubordination to the Almighty's ways for our good. We chose wrong and went the wrong way, and most do not know the way of Shalom.  

From Genesis to Zechariah God stipulates that all firstborns belong to Him; of all creation, from humans to animals. That must be very special. In order to be special we must dig for the treasure here. But then God also brought some changes.

[Numbers 3:45] Take the Levites instead of all the firstborn among the sons of Israel and the cattle of the Levites. And the Levites shall be Mine; I am the LORD.

Jesus was the firstborn and the high priest. This is highly significant because each firstborn that opened the womb the physical way; can do the same backwards, but spiritually. One can overcome and even triumph over the inevitable and the firstborn Son paid the price for this too (John 8:51).

[John 1:18] No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.

Seeing God would be seeing a contour, but Jesus being the mirror has EXPLAINED - represented, reflected, and being God’s mirror He beamed the Father down to us. Like a king’s messenger or an ambassador who only says what the king says, so was Jesus. Whatever a king wants his messenger to do he must do, but if the messenger is killed the king is not dead, but he will come and avenge his ambassador. Jesus’ death symbolizes human hatred of the Creator and the inner (subconscious) desire to be rid of God. It is evident: all the way from the builders of the Babel tower, incessant violence and numerous wars to this very day.

[John 3:31] He who comes from above is above all, he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.

[John 8:23] And He was saying to them, “You are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world.

Earthly perceptions make us only earthly, from below and quite ordinary. The special you is from above and those who are from above comprehend God, His kingdom and His word.

SEEING FROM ABOVE

So let’s try to see ourselves from above. See yourself as God sees you. Jesus saw you and He came down in obedience to the Father’s order. Being His son is not the same as being a hireling, servant or a slave, sons are part of the divine family; but so are we; but we did not know that then. We needed the firstborn to show us the way to the long lost most glorious reality. Now this reality is ours. Jesus came from the bosom of the Father and ministered only three years. But that was enough for any special son or daughter to grasp the purpose of His mission.

You were with God too. You are from above. Don’t you remember? Well, no problem…

[John 14:26] But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.

You can’t know God and all that pertains to Him flippantly. He repeatedly says, “Seek Me.” The more you seek Him the more you will find and you will remember who you were in heaven. I know who I was, who I am and who I am about to become. I am the sibling of Jesus and all the prophets. In this case genetics play rather an insignificant role.

[Job 38:7; 21] When the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy? (…) You know, for you were born then, and the number of your days is great!

I was there too and that ever increasing joy is mine today.

So join me in this awesome quest for divine logic without which nothing can be made clear. Awake that special you and be thankful that someone out there showed you the way and that you have come in contact with His teacher. Just as you are thankful for Jesus thank the Father for those He sends your way to bring you closer to Himself. He sharpens your cognizance and refines you like gold and silver. There is no need to die and be eaten by maggots. There is a promise Jesus gave, which is rooted in keeping His word; and that's what I have done today and right here.

[John 8:51] Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he will never see death.   

Do you believe it? Do you receive it? Will you run with it? These words are but seeds. Allow them to sink into that special you and germinate. Grow a tree and bear fruit in due season. Take it easy.

Shalom.

DO YOU KNOW HOW SPECIAL YOU ARE

The fiery ball now sinks into the sea over the horizon. Only shadows of the wing-flapping seagulls protruded from the yellow and red canvas. Painter’s hand now suspended for the eye caught the last orangey rim of the setting sun. There it is… swallowed by waves. Sailboats now rush to the shore and dock at the local harbor.

Two lost souls somewhere ramble streets of a big city… lost in their dreams. Their dreams will meet some day, but before they do, hopeful search for a companion, lover and friend, will go on.

Boats have a harbor and our endless companion the sun rises and bows. It’s humble majesty cares not if you praise it or abase it. It is and it travels; so it seems. We travel we move and we go somewhere. But the path is not beaten nor yet hardened with the treading feet; although man’s attempts—partially successful—could not firm it, nor say, ‘that’s it;’ those that did; sunk ever deeper into a quagmire of empty definitions grasping for a nearby dry grass and loose crackling twigs.

The sky changes colors from blue to emerald, from orange to red. Stars stick like a glue to the firmament, but do they indeed? Perhaps we move with them in the same direction. No repose and no rest. The engine of all things keeps turning the axles of life.

Everything swirls on the axles of life so graciously bestowed upon us the children of the hidden God. His face man wants to behold and gaze upon His silhouette, but either his gaze is faulty or there is nothing to behold, but only feel and ponder upon?

I feel life and its gentle caressing. It beckons me closer to look into its secrets, saying, “Search me out and never stop until you find.”  I’m on a quest from time long ago, before instance was formed and measured with clocks invented by us with gears and springs and those turning arms. Each time you look at its face; it changes moods from early to late. It signals and woos, waves ‘hello’ and waves ‘goodbye.’ But we return to its round face with admiration until the eye can see no more. The nagging and urging time does not stop, it passes on.

But there is hope. What do we know? There must be a code that we must crack for it’s been given to us to seek, finally find and then change our lives. We tweak computers to suit our needs; our whims and wishes are satisfied… but are they indeed? Perhaps we dig the wrong hole in that old beaten and well-trodden path. Perhaps there is a path yet undiscovered hardly walked on but by the chosen few. This path awaits your search for the truth. This path awaits the special YOU.

How special you are only God knows, but also I do. How precious you are only He knows, but I also want to know what hinders you. Show me your feathers with which you fly; certainly you are an angel but in disguise.

How lonely you are only you know. Dissatisfied with frivolous chats, exchanges of words void of any meaning? Nonetheless, you keep on chatting away, mercilessly beating down the ticking clock. You chat away your precious life as the sun sets lower behind the clouds and sinks into the ocean on the horizon, which now came closer into the purview of your unexplored life. The curtain is drawn on the empty show and that lonely distant path remains untrodden. Why have you not let me pin those wings on you and make you fly? Why do you chose those dreary corridors, those smelly alleys of that lonely life?  

Those two rambling souls have finally met their hearts embraced each other; they chatted away their lives too; their bones are buried in some lost tomb.

The thrill is gone BB King sings. The thrill is gone the bluesman exclaims. All that remains is the old chat we once wasted on thrills that don’t last at all.

But there are thrills unlimited. I know them well for I bathe in them. As I write these words I hold out hope for some, but sorrow for others who’ve chosen a path that ends in regrets. My only comfort is this precious knowledge that some can’t change the garb of a tare, the field or the good seed. As for the last I know where I go and what I contain is life divine; time has arrived to stop throwing pearls before … (you know). Alas, lest they trample them down and turn on you in disgust. Although you meant well, yet was misconstrued; no one cared to comb through your phrases; dig out the gold; discover the plenty; adorn their minds with jewels of light. They ran into burrows dug with their paws to hide their eyes from too much light.

The truth is found on the tip of your nose where your reading glasses sit. It sits on the tip of your wet tongue. Don’t aimlessly spit it out, but let it slide gently off your tongue and heal those hormones-driven rambling souls still lost in the sinews and bones of their fragile frames.

There is more. Much more than you would ever know. Search engines of the World Wide Web are not the ones you should hit “go;” they’ll take you for a senseless spin. Turn the engine of your own device. Seek after life that is much fuller, much deeper, more meaningful and far beyond the now.

What you seek is looking at you now staring in your face. Because you are one of the unique ones I’ve been drawn to you by the hand divine. That’s why we met and communicate. You are special and most honored because you’re being introduced to the beyond and most sublime. Don’t miss your turn when it knocks on your door, but open it wide and with a welcome smile.

MIRACLES' ANATOMY

The inner workings of miracles

Miracles can be explained and obtained because the Bible presents us with many examples of circumstances in which miracles took place. It is worthwhile to study the milieu in which miracles happen.

1. Not all miracles work as a result of faith. I have seen too many miracles without any faith. Those who experienced them were utterly shocked. 

A. Signs and wonders happen for a witness.

B. To reach a sinner (God sees the heart) bringing him or her to repentance. One is God's son or daughter but in a lost state so a miracle opens their eyes to their true belonging and heavenly identity. 

C. To confirm anointing - God's choice of a vessel. Jesus said, (...) believe because of the works themselves (John 14:11). 

2. Melting and surrender. There are mechanisms which God created. Simple humbling of the pride of life touches His heart, e.g., Hezekiah, King Ahab or Nineveh. 

A. Praise and worship are the two mechanisms that can bring one to a state of surrender. Praise may bring surrender provided that it is indeed true praise, and not mere song singing. God is enthroned upon the praises of Israel (Psalms 22:3).

B. Worship is like giving up territory one imagined to have possessed or even owned. Worship means to bow low before the Lord, the lower one goes the more of Him becomes present until the lines get crossed and one enters His holy corridors. 

C. Abandonment in worship can bring ecstasy as that of the fifty prophets (under Samuel) and the fifty sons of the prophets. 

D. This sort of worship brings changes. Power of God comes only to change anything old into something new. When there is no will to change anything and one is unwilling to let go one will be only irritated by the "too loud praise" or "too emotional worship." 

3. Bible teaching does not carry the spiritual presence like worship does. Teaching is for the intellect.

A. If you are after only the intellect, because you want to be smarter, more knowledgeable, wiser, more important; (and God forbid) to show off then no matter how much you would like to experience a miracle it will not happen. Intellect is intellect for your brain; and something spiritual deals with your spirit.   

B. The spiritual realm can be easily confused with feelings of the human soul. When the gratification of feelings in any possible way is being only sought then it all comes down to gratified emotions, exalted emotions, and happy feelings. This can happen through religion, dancing, parties, eating drinking, joking, sex and playing; these have nothing to do with the spiritual realm of worship. 

C.  Those who are too intellectual are dry in another area. The Living Waters cannot flow when one constantly defines things, accepts one thing and rejects another. 

D. Those who are simple and openhearted receive miracles at the point of their need. I have seen most of these miracles. 

In closing

Sometimes, when people are taught to believe and they release their faith they receive something similar to a psychosomatic miracle; like a temporary loss of pain. But the status quo all too often returns. The higher way is to make room for God's faith through the humbling of the pride of this life.

GOD BUT MY OWN WAY

[Matthew 18:3] “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven." - Jesus.

Obstinate people will never experience the supernatural. The disease they carry is not only a set of unchangeable beliefs but also pride of being a Christian. People pick and choose a preacher whom to praise and even own, but when that preacher is yielded to the Holy Spirit and changes horses in mid stream then this God who just came out of your box is not the kind of God you want. 

A proud Christian, (I have met too many already), assumes that he or she knows best and such only seeks to feed that pride all the more.   

There was once the fist time for a Catholic Christian; and the very first time for a Lutheran, Baptist or pentecostal. There is always a new beginning for everything. The unwillingness to switch and change grieves the Holy Spirit one aspires to know and be led of. 

[Amos 7:3] The LORD changed His mind about this. “It shall not be,” said the LORD.

No one can know the Holy Spirit with fixed attitudes "my way" because God's Spirit does not even come near such person. Before we can talk about the grieving of the Holy Spirit we must address His nearness first. If one is not able to give up one's disappointment after what one eagerly expected then one is stuck in self. The self handles itself like as if it is the only king in the entire Universe. So this self-king can't lose time and cannot ever be disappointed, but if it is it quickly seeks vindication. The one who has caused this disappointment must be then punished. Therefore, quite subconsciously, people punish the one who brought them high and closer to God and has spoiled them. Once self gets hooked on something it will feed itself like a glutton who eats and vomits and eats some more. The food has lost all taste, but the glutton keeps on eating anyway. Try to stop it. You can't.  

1. Inflexibility belongs to the old bones and sinews and not to children. 

2. Slow adaptability bypasses opportunities

A strange thing

Ego and pride dance together the tango, but only the tango and no other dance. Musicians stuff their instruments with pride and worship them as well as their mediocre abilities. (Mediocre because there are abilities beyond your imagination, so don't limit yourself by putting pride behind your playing. Take that guitar out of beach, fire and girls scene and into God's house and just for Him.) With such puffed up instruments one cannot praise and worship God for He does not accept such offerings; and like the one of Cain He keep on rejecting them. But the strange thing is that one keeps on worshiping this idol and you can't change that, but if you try you will be viewed as one that insults the beloved idol. 

[Matthew 11:17] ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.’

A spiritual person is flexible and adaptable while the inflexible and stiff is only fleshly, self-defined and slow to learn anything new. Hey, I would even dare to say that such does the desires of the dead and stuck in time unclean spirits. Some have demons. They may not be possessed by them, but they may possess demons and do what those demons want. They are not in their own clear mind, but are pressed to do the wishes of their ancestors' national, religious or their family traditions, addictions and habits.  

[Romans 8:14] For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

Not those who are led of the letter but rather of the Spirit. Letter kills; Spirit makes alive. 

God has time and He plans more meetings in surprising places, but when one is led of the Spirit it is the Spirit that changes streets and turns corners. So, either you follow Him or follow that which dictates or orders your behavior. Demons cried in the presence of the Great Liberator Jesus; and they still cry today. People bind others because they are bound up themselves. Only the free can create freedom for others.  

Worship

Only in true worship we are able to surrender because we melt and give up our stubborn will. But when the tango couple (ego and pride) will not budge He won't either.
