Calvary Explained

About ready to redeem them. Paul ask his question. He ask the question, What does it profit, as to being an Israelite? He said, Much in every way. For unto them has been committed the oracles of God, as to the natural side of life and establishment. You know, life is so beautiful and the things of God are so beautiful that if we, as a people, were hungering and thirsting after the things of life, or the things of God, God could so beautifully and immeasurable share with us the wonderful riches of heaven. Paul spoke of heavenly treasures in earthen vessels. Our valuation is, of course, as to diamonds and pearls and gold and silver and earthly riches. The Bible says all of these things the Gentiles seek after because that is their desire. Satan is the prince of the world and he savors the things that be of the world because he doesn't have a heavenly reward. He's not allowed into that dimension, as to an eternal security. So all he has is the natural side of life and his inspiration is through the human senses of the human body. And other than that he is in the dry places. Whereas, the terms dry places there indicates that he wanders through the places, the spiritual domain to where there is no heavenly water and it is the hot displeasure of Almighty God. So he seeks to live in the human body and to rule and reign in this world because aside from that he is tormented. As a matter of fact, when Jesus went into the land of the Gadarenes and the man possessed of devils came running out of the tomb the demons screamed out saying, Have you come to torment us before our time? So then, demons are tormented if they don't have human bodies to live in and these demons knew that Jesus was about to cast them out and they'd have to go back to the dry places. And they didn't want to be tormented so they begged Him. They said, Will you allow us to go away into the herd of swine, in that there was a herd of swine feeding nearby on the hillside. And He said, Go, and they went into the herd of swine. But the herd of swine ran violently down the steep place into the sea and perished, so they really didn't find a covert there. I said that to say this: We, as people, have a great opportunity. A great opportunity. Though we are the Gentiles seeking after the things of the world, and Satan, or Lucifer, being the ruler of this world that savors the things that be of this world, that loves the things of the world because he can't get into the other things; yet we, as a people, because of the blood covering and the blood on the seat of atonement have great opportunity. And that is to become a son of God. The Bible says, To as many as believed, believed on His name, to them gave He power to become the sons of God. And you can believe and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, to receive the lovely gift of the Holy Ghost and after that, the Bible says after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you, you shall receive power. And that power is a spiritual indwelling that is the power of transformation that can transformate you. It translates your inner man into a oneness with the spirit of God. And then it transformates your mind, as to a graduality, or a graduation unto a diplomacy of life. And then it causes your body to be transfigured into an eternal substance, as to that that Jesus was when he stood on the mountain with Moses and Elijah appearing in glory. So with the teaching of the gospel, with the unveiling of the mind of God, with the Revelation of Jesus Christ, or the revealed hidden contents of the lovely word of Jesus your inner man can become angelic, as to one with the angel of Jesus Christ, even the Spirit of Jesus Christ and be eternal. And you can master the body to where it won't even be put in a grave. Like Enoch; he mastered it until they didn't put it in a grave. The Bible says, Before his translation he had this testimony that he pleased God. The secret of Jesus was that I do always the things that please the Father. This is the opportunity that we have to believe it. So you can master, and the church will master the situation, the body, until man will not be put in a coffin, or a casket. He will excel and he will by-pass the grave and there will be no more death. And even those that are in the grave, death will lose hold on them and they will come forth because you will have conquered death. Remember, death did not come by God. Death does not come by God. Death is no friend of God. Death has nothing to do with God. Death is the enemy of God and the last one to be conquered. That is, by man. Christ has already conquered it. And death is the enemy of God and death is a derivative from the carnal mind. To be worldly minded, gullibly minded, to have the love of the world in you is to be absent of the love of God. The Bible says if the love of the world is in you the love of the Father is not there for Satan loves the world. Savors the things that be of the world, even the prince of the world. He hath blinded the eyes of all people that are not born again, even the eyes of their understand that they might not see when good cometh. So it means that you can, in your inner man, be one with the angelic being, or forces of heaven, in Christ. But you cannot serve two masters. If you have the mind of Lucifer within you it is a light but it is a dark light. He does know, you know, he does understand it, as to the degree that God has allowed him to know in his past, as we say, when he was in the garden. And he does know to the extent that he transformates his mind by the blood, or the grace of God on the seat of atonement to dwell among the stones of fire, walking up and down among the church, or these that God refers to as lively stones, even stones of fire. You are jewels, stones of fire. Satan walks to and fro among them and he knows but it is a veiled understanding. He is in the fog, as we say. It is understanding but it is a dark understanding. He cannot understand clear. And all this in the world, they have educational systems, they know, they have wisdom but not godly wisdom. And they cannot thoroughly understand for they are stumbling through the darkness and the Bible says they will not understand when good comes. And they are ever learning and never able to come to God knowledge of truth. And they don't understand but the Bible says you are children of light, not of intellectual darkness and you will understand, even when the coming of the Lord is nigh, even at the door. So then, unveiling. God unveiling the thing that we can see. Paul said, Looking at this thing, seeing through a glass darkly, even the intellectual veil of that that is the spirit of Lucifer that has fallen over the minds of man as a derivative from the garden and the tree of knowledge. This veil Paul says, remains over the minds of the people, the eyes of their understanding even until today, which veil is done away with in Christ Jesus. So the Jews still have this veil. They don't know that Jesus is the Messiah. Paul could say this because he came into the revelation. Being caught up into the third heaven he saw the unveiled and therefore he knew what was veiled. He understood then that his blindness had been a veil. Whereas, he went on his way. The Bible says about noonday the light struck Paul down and the scales of intellectual blindness fell from his eyes when he went down to the street called Straight. He then begin to have the understanding of God. He was caught up into the third heaven and he received the Revelation of Jesus Christ. John likewise did the same thing. So the veil is over the minds of the people, which veil is carnality. To be carnally minded is death, That is, the mind of Lucifer. To be carnally minded means that the mind of Satan, even the spirit of Lucifer has interwoven itself with human understanding and with the human mind. And the human mind is thus infiltrated. Paul said, Within my flesh there dwelleth no good thing, for to will is present but how to perform that which is good I find not. So then, that veil is there and the only thing that can dissolve it, that can eradicate it is the marvelous light of the Son of God. And the Bible speaks of it as the Day Star dawning within your heart. That's why the Day Star, as of late, in the publication of our paper the change came as to the name and that's why it went out to so many churches because at this time the church is coming into the revelation and the revelation is, of course, the Day Star. You know, the sun is the Day Star. From it comes the cosmic light that keeps our body alive. But the Day Star, which is Christ, the true Day Star of which the sun is only a type, He dwells within our innermost being and from our within innermost being out of there comes the rivers of living water. Out of there comes the light of the glory of the understanding of God, from faith to faith of hearing the Word. Hear a little Word, get a little faith. And the transformating of the mind is from faith to faith as from light to light, as from glory to glory; the glory that is revealed from the faith, as from the Word of every tutoring, or understanding, or every part of the indoctrination. So, I said all of that to say this, that this is a glorious hour. You have such a marvelous opportunity. Never before has man had this opportunity. So, the Gentile world, as to a segregated thing, it's over here on this side of Calvary and Satan is the ruler of it and the prince of the atomic particles, as to what the world is constituted of. Or, that is, he's the prince of the powers of the air and all of the turbulence, confusion, problems, comes from him. And the Bible says when he is bound for a thousand years then it will be said, All of the earth is at rest for God is a God of peace. All of His paths are peace. And that means that on the other side of Calvary there is the law, which is the Jews and salvation is of the Jews. And as to the natural defining of God, or an intellectual comprehension of God, the Jews have it. As to the ordinances, they have it. My! There is so much we could say. All right. If I can talk with you just a few minutes I'd like to dwell on Calvary, as to the differentiating of the past and future, as of life and death, as of those that can see and those that are blind, as of the veiled and the unveiled. Maybe I'll take an unusual approach. I want to read just a little bit. Notice, we're at the moment of triumph and victory. In chapter 12 of the book of Revelation there is war in heaven. The child is born. The woman goes away in the wilderness; the child up to the third heaven. Now, I don't know what that means to you but let's read just a little bit. 

Revelation 12:1-17 "And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ."

I read that just a little bit fast because I wanted to read that whole chapter there to where you can kind of catalog it in your mind. I don't know what this means to you, but I what you to think. Here is a war in heaven. Here is a child being born. Here is a child being caught up to the throne. I use the terms, to the third heaven. Now. You might would say, Brother Pike, why do you say the third heaven? It doesn't say the third heaven there. I say the third heaven because it says here that John saw this great wonder in heaven. Do you follow me? He saw this great thing taking place in heaven. It's very obvious there was another heaven somewhere, because it says the child was caught up to the throne, to God and His throne. So it is evident that God was not there in that realm where this thing was taking place. He was not there where the war was taking place so it's very evident that there is another realm. There is another heaven. Whereas, there is a substantiation of this in the teachings of Paul where Paul spoke of one that he knew being caught up into the third heaven. So, there very definitely was another heaven. So then, this must have been the second heaven. Now, again you would say, Why do you call this the second heaven? It doesn't say the second heaven. I know it doesn't say the second heaven, but we can definitely see there is a differentiating between the third heaven and the second heaven. There must be a second heaven. There is a differentiating between this heaven and the third heaven. So then, this must be a second heaven in that Satan is the in between and Christ was lifted up between the heaven and earth to fight the battle and was in between as to Daniel's prayer going up and the angel coming to answer it, It was the in between part, as to where Lucifer intercepted the angel coming down to Daniel. So there had to be a second place somewhere and there had to be a third place somewhere so there must be a first place somewhere. And the first heaven, of course, is in this earth. That is where your first heaven is. Your first heaven. And I say this a lot of times. I still say it for the sake of new comers; I say it for your sake. If you don't believe that you're in heaven you wait until you go to hell and you find out that the pain and the misery is there and there is no relief day nor night. And then you'll say, Oh, my God! I was in heaven and didn't know it. So you are in a heaven, to eat, to drink; your sovereignty to do what you want to do and enjoy it. God has made it that way because He has put the blood of the Lord Jesus on the seat of atonement to where He cannot see man's sins, so He doesn't look on the outward parts anymore. God doesn't look on the outward part. He took away the outward parts by the blood of Jesus to where He would not have to look on the outward part in that the infiltration is within the flesh and Paul said, within the flesh there's no good thing. So He did away with all flesh in His sight. He looks on the heart of mankind. He examines the heart of mankind for it's with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and the confession unto salvation is made with the lips. So, He looks on the heart. And He looks on every man's heart. So He has put the blood to where He can do away with the flesh and then give an age of grace to where man can condition his heart. And man, in his state of ignorance, having been so in the past, God has not required very much of him only as to his gradual development. Whereas, we're coming into an age of knowledge and understanding and God is going to require the more. For the Bible says I will require more, or to whom I have given more. Or to whom I've given much I will require the more. So, we are coming into an age now to where man knows more. God is requiring more and in that He is requiring it and man is not performing more than death has set in on man from diseases, from weather conditions, from problems, wrecks, all kind of things and man is literally being destroyed a little at a time. Because he is not performing before God. And this will continue to an ultimatum to a place to where God, it won't be spastic anymore. God won't work in a sporadic manner. He'll begin to bring a total disaster, a total annihilation upon mankind. They are headed for it right now. The day of doom, as they call it. So, we see then that it is a heaven. It is a heaven. And will remain that way until the blood is lifted. So, in this we have to learn to differentiate between the first heaven, the second heaven and the third heaven. And we have to properly categorize according to what people is meant for the first heaven (I'm just teaching you a little this morning.) and what people are meant for the second heaven, and what people are meant for the third heaven. There is a people for the first heaven. And someone would say, Who is that? It is the Jewish people. They will be the head of the nation. The millennium is the restored earth so it is the days of David. It is when God is with His people. It is that heaven. And then there are the people for the second heaven. These people are intellectual genesis'. It is the realm of Lucifer. It is the second realm, the second dimension, the second heaven and the people of the world have this heaven by virtue of Christ's works at Calvary in that the Bible says He died to take away the sins of all men. So their sins are taken away for a period of time, as to dispensational grace. You that have been born again, you're sins have been taken away altogether. Now. When you come to the third heaven, the third heaven, there is a people for the third heaven and this is a spiritual people. This is a born again people. This is a people that have passed from death unto life. This is an eternal realm and it takes eternal people to dwell there and they are those that are being educated, as to the college of God at this particular time, in the school of hard knocks, as we say, unto their development, conforming unto Christ. These are the people that will inhabit eternity and own everything and rule throughout eternity. Now, so you've got three heavens; you've got three kind of people. The other heavens will pass away. The Bible says heaven and earth shall pass away. The other heavens shall pass away. Heaven and earth shall pass away. The reason that the second heaven is going to pass away as the first heaven is renovated by fire, the reason for that is because both places are defiled. Satan has been in the earth and Satan has been in the days of grace as to the second heaven. And the reason it will pass away is because the only reason there is a second heaven is because of the blood of Jesus on the seat of atonement that gives allowance, or makes allowance, for people all over the world to have the wooing of God for a period of time while God is dealing with the church. Though God is angry with the wicked every day the wooing is still there. As long as the blood is on the seat of atonement the severing of the just from the unjust, as to bringing the church out, or shucking down the corn, as we say, it's still there. The grace is there. The harvest is going to be gathered. The chaff will be burned with unquenchable fire. As long as the grace is there (And it will be there as long as the blood is on the seat of atonement.) blood life can come into the presence of God by means of that grace as long as that blood is on the seat of atonement. But when the blood comes off of the seat of atonement only spirit life, or angelic life, can continue. Adam was born a living soul, having to do with the blood and the breath of life, as to the oxygen from the Cosmo, is in his lungs. It's in your lungs, as the first man Adam. That's the only life you've got. And the second man Adam was born a quickening spirit, as to the breath of God, saying, Christ breathed upon them at His ascension and said, Received ye the Holy Ghost. These are eternal. One is that that is upon man as the light of God, as the glory of God, as the Shekinah of God that was in the garden. The other is an inbreed thing from within as to the dawning of the Day Star on the inside of you of the unveiled knowledge of God. I say unveiled because it is within your heart and it is faith by that knowledge, revealed knowledge, that translated Enoch that he should not see death. The others have it as upon them, the rain upon the unjust which means that they only understand God through a veil, an intellectual concept of God and a religious definition, as to educational approaches. So, when you think about this you realize how great God is and what He has done, as to body soul and spirit. You think of the first realm and that first realm being a heavenly thing in that God has through Father Abraham appointed the Jews an inheritance as to a land inheritance, as of the earth, and of a great heritage. And then God has appointed unto the Gentiles, through the grace of God, an allotted period of time of life perfected by medical sources, or science. Science. And Paul said it's science, the word meaning knowledge falsely so-called, because they are ever learning and never coming to the real knowledge of truth. But, nevertheless, it's a great world of science and their world is a world of physical inheritance. They seek to perfect health while the Jews seek to perfect the earth as to production of the earth. And they have just recently astounded science in some of the things they have done. I read the little article. Now, their inheritance is in the earth, as to the milk and honey, Canaan. See? But the Gentiles seeks to perfect the body. Their jogging, medical approaches, all kind of exercises, everything as pertaining to the physical being, or to human anatomy. So, that is their world. It is a blood world. There is three that bear witness in the earth, the water, the blood and the spirit. Whereas, the Jews world, the life line of it is a water life. It's the world of all vegetation, the water life. It bears witness that God lives, in that He created a water life. And then the second life is a blood life and that blood life is a beast life. All human anatomy, which is no more than a beast, a derivative from a beast, comes from the beast. All humanity in the first birth goes back to the beast. It comes from the beast. That's why you find science, falsely so-called, always trying to believe in evolution, which is foolishness. You know, there is an evolving. Or that is, there is a follow up of the kind of seed that God planted, or that God made. And it continues to grow. And there is a crossing up of Lucifer of cross breeding that takes away the pure blood line. But, when it comes to the evolution of evolving from some kind of plant out of the ocean to a tadpole and a frog and a monkey and a chimpanzee and whatever, that's foolishness. But, anyway, in that world, in that blood world, in that blood world that is where science dwells. That is where Satan dwells. That is where education dwells. That is, from the tree of knowledge. That is the beast world. (Begin tape one, side two.) … everyone of them is born after the fall. After the fall from the garden of Eden, after that Eve had been deceived by the beast. And the intellectual understanding, the tree of knowledge. It is after this that all humanity is born, from the beast mind and the beast understanding. So they are nothing more than beast in their first birth. But it is after Calvary that Jesus comes forth as the beginning of the creation of God and the first born of many brethren. And from there comes the children of God, or those that are born of God that are to live eternally in the third dimension. So the second dimension will pass away because when the blood comes off of the seat of atonement blood life can no longer be in the presence of God. So when grace is over Satan can no longer dwell in the presence of God. He's automatically out of that dimension. So we see in the second realm it is a blood life because blood is the life of all human beings as to beast. So man has fallen to the beast level. Now, in the regeneration, in the born again experience, there is the third witness, the spirit. And the Bible says the second man Adam was made a quickening spirit, changed from a living soul as to a beast. The Bible speaks of the soul of the beast going down. And he was changed to, not a living soul but a quickening spirit. So that is the angelic world. The Bible says he that is born of God he is equal to the angels and cannot die because God has made His angels a quickening spirit and we are now quickening spirits. And we will, by faith in this revealed revelation and knowledge of God, come to the place as a generation of people, or as humanity, to where we will master the particles of our body, the atomic particles, to where they will not decompose, as to deterioration, but they will last eternally and death will have no power over them. Remember, God did not make them to deteriorate. Science has learned that atomic particles are the things that God has made so as to the elements, that you cannot destroy those. You can change the form of matter. As they say, mind over matter. That is man's mind, or Satanic mind, over matter. That you can change it. You can change the form of matter but you cannot destroy it because when God made it He did not make it to be destroyed. He gave Adam an eternal inheritance. But Adam being the prince of the world lost that through the mind of Satan, the angel being a little stronger than Adam, man made a little lower than the angels. So then, he lost that through the weakness of his wife Eve through her transgression and the subduing that was offered her in the garden. So sin is in the world because Eve lusted. That is, desired that fruit of the tree of knowledge. Now, I'd like to just take my time and explain one or two things here. So it's very obvious that Christ is the beginning of the creation of God. The rest goeth after the flesh, goes after the world, life is imprisoned within the flesh and because of that man dies. The elements decompose. For to be carnally minded is death. Or, that is, the Bible says that if you sow to the flesh you shall of the flesh, the carnal mind, reap the sentence of deterioration, or death, or corruption, or returning to the original elements, or the original composites out of which you are constituted, as to the Word of God that constituted a man, made him a man or woman, and put him together in that form. I can only retain my form of image and escape death by faith in the Word that spoke me into existence. And if anytime my faith varies from that then I will begin to deteriorate, or I will begin to decompose because the Shekinah glory that moved over the face of the earth when there was no form, this glory is what formed me and I must at all times be in the presence of this. Whereas, I can't be like that in my natural man. Adam came out from under that Shekinah glory. Jesus appeared in this Shekinah glory on the mountain to show that it had been restored to mankind. Moses and Elijah is in that Shekinah glory as a preservation until the day they return to the earth to die. See? And they are just like Adam as long as they are there. So, you and I, we have a different approach. We have been born again of the Shekinah, inwardly, our spirit, our angel, our inner man by the redemption of the blood of Jesus, of moving away our transgressions to the extent that our innocency is there in that we never knew and he doesn't require it of us and we don't know. And now that we've come to know then we accept his way of life, therefore we're not charged with evil. For he that knoweth to do good and doeth it not to him it is a sin. The soul that sinneth shall surely die. We're enticed when we see something and then we're drawn away from our steadfastness from the Shekinah protection, as Eve was and then through that there is a conception by lust and that conception is the seed of death. By the same token we being drawn away in lust and then lust conceives and then sin and when sin is finished it brings forth death. We, by the same means we would say, in our conversion we conceive of Christ and the seed of God remaineth in us and we cannot sin because we are born of God. We're passed from death unto life in our inner man so we're born of the Shekinah and it is breaking forth from glory to glory, from message to message, from tutoring to tutoring, from conception to conception of divine understanding as to the revelating of the Word, taking away of the veil, bringing forth the brightness of his glory, from this within, the Day Star Christ is coming from within and destroying the infiltration of the flesh, in the flesh that is, Satan the man or the god, the spirit that sets within his temple, the human body showing himself that he is God. With the brightness of this light from within He is moving the infiltration as the sun melts the snow, then comes forth the (?). He's gradually moving it. He's not moving it all at one time because if He did we would die because we live from that. You know, it's like the prodigal that would have filled his belly with the husks. You know, if you live off of something you live off of it and you can't take it away else you die. So He is converting the appetite. He's converting the understanding. He's moving the infiltration a little at a time because Satan is an angelic being that does have an allowance for life as to a period of time in the days of grace under the blood. So the Shekinah, as to the rain on the unjust comes down on the image in which He dwells. Him being evil God cannot give him any kind of grace other than he dwells in something even if it's a pig, sending him away into the swine so as not to torment him. So the Bible refers to those that are without as swine and God is casting the devils out and redeeming His people and they are going away into the swine. The dogs (He calls them dogs) return to their vomit. And he calls them swine that wallows in the mire after the washing of the water of the Word, as to the water upon them. All right. Then they've got that kind of nature. But you, being sons of God, you're born of the Shekinah, which means that forever and eternally the Shekinah is within you so your faith is within the Word and you can never depart from the Shekinah so you can never deteriorate for you will not sow to the flesh but to the mind of Christ. Therefore, your conformity, as to sons of God, as to the image of Christ – We don't know what He looks like as of yet but we know when He appears we shall be like Him. We shall be changed into the same glory as His image. Adam was made in that image but lost it through the fall and took on the beast image. That's why people look so different, as to diversity. Some remind you of an elephant, some of a monkey, some of something else. But, anyway, I'm saying that to say this. That faith, the just shall live by faith. When Eve lost her faith then her deterioration and corruption started. As to her generation it's continued until Calvary. And then God reverses it. We say to convert, or that is to pervert. Take like a convertible automobile, you pull it back, you convert it. You've took the top off. But we say, get down to Calvary, we convert it back to its originality. The preaching comes (just using a type here) the preaching comes and man is converted back to his originality which is the image of the sons of God because he was made in the image to begin with. And the same Shekinah image that was over Adam, the natural man, Adam being the feminine part shown by Eve, as to a type. See? This Shekinah glory that was over Adam was the image of the invisible God, even the Lord Jesus Christ. That image came as the second man Adam to enter into us to bring forth a crucifixion, as to the outer man, and the sin of Satan and the image of the bastard child to put him to death and to bring forth in the resurrection the mew man in a new form, as the Bible says he appeared in a new form, to bring forth the Christ image in the mind of God. So God took this Christ image, set it at his right hand and He's looking at us through the blood of Jesus as to our life and preservation, as to the image of the Son of God that He might appear at the Thessalonian change that Paul spoke of. And all of us returning in Revelation 19 on the white horses with the beautiful garments of righteousness, even the body of the Lord Jesus Christ. Whereas, the Bible says put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, make no provisions for the flesh to fulfill the lust thereof and it tells us that as many as has been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. So then, when we think of this great wonderful opportunity, as being Gentiles. See? The Shekinah glory is dwelling on the inside of you. The Shekinah glory. So you cannot decompose. You cannot deteriorate. God came forth. The Bible says He looked and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And said it was dark and without form. See? This light shining within our heart the darkness is great. And the Bible says, How great is that ignorance within you when this light of understanding comes as to say let there be, as to an expression of an unveiled knowledge and understanding. And thus you conform to its desire, as from the inner spring of life. See? How great is that darkness, as to that which prevails over the earth. How great is that darkness? And He said, Let there be light and there was light. And the writers use it, those that set in the regions of the shadow of death now has sprang up unto them great light. So from within the light comes, and from glory to glory the change comes and the transformating of the mind is to transformate the mind that the innermost light of the translated spirit might project itself through the transformation of the mind to the outer body to transfigure the body. And God has to get the interwoven infiltration of Lucifer, the mind of Satan, out of our being or our soul, before our soul sins and dies, because that's the only living part of man. It is a living soul by breath of life and by virtue of ignorance. That is, he doesn't understand so God doesn't require it of him. Now, coming to light, coming to understanding, if this light penetrates and comes from within then we are no longer ignorant and we must change with the light. Otherwise, if we don't change with the light then that means we go into darkness, as the sun or moon that goes into eclipse, as to the church ages we saw that by types and shadows. As to leaving from here from the west going east, or from the east going west I have to travel with the sun. If the sun rises in the east I'm headed west if I go with the sun, so I save my daylight. And if I keep moving with the sun I don't see darkness. But at anytime, should I stop, I get a hang up, as we say, then darkness overcomes me. I spoke not too long ago of the shadow. I'm standing. I'm looking at the sun. So while I'm looking at the Day Star I'm all right but if I have my back to the sun then I have problems because as long as the sunshine is back of me darkness is in front of me and it is a long shadow of death. And that is in perversion, as to first birth but something must command my attention and turn me from darkness unto light. God said, Paul, you're the man; turn my people from darkness unto light. You've been learned in all the ways of the Egyptians as Moses was. You know all of these things. They said, Paul, much learning makes you mad. He said, Now shelve that all. Count it all as dung. Turn around, get under this veil and see the light and turn my people from that veil of darkness of intellectual death unto light. So we get a conversion; we turn clear around and then we're looking at the light. Then we can say, Satan, get behind me. The shadow is no longer in front of me. The shadow is back of me. When the sun rises to the high place, as to the noonday, as it was with Paul and the scales fell from his eyes, then we trample under feet the shadow. Everything is gone. They use to have a little old thing that I read when I was a kid about the shadow. Maybe you've read it. I brought it out here one night while I was preaching about the shadow, how that the little one got up in the morning and his shadow was always before him. And then at the noonday how the shadow vanished away and was there no more. So see? We're reaching the noonday now. We're coming to the noonday. All of our life from our first birth the shadow of the intellectual infiltration of Lucifer's spirit and mind, the way of death and the gullible desire, the love of the world has been in front of us and blinded our eyes so we couldn't see. And all we knew to do is pass from one meal to another in that the serpent is on his belly and the first creation as to man and beast is the belly because the beast was changed to a serpent. John said a generation of vipers. Then all of his labor is for his belly because it craves it of him. All of the generations of the world. So seeing that the shadow has overwhelmed us, seeing that the darkness of night has taken us. The Bible says from evening until morning. That is to say God did not reckon time from morning until evening because there was no light. Man fell into darkness so he called all of his days from the Garden of Eden to the dawning of the Day Star at Calvary, from evening until morning. And He told them, said, Because you have a bastard image through the fall, even the image of the beast, I will despise your image at Calvary in the morning at the breaking forth when I pour out my blessings either upon humanity, or my wrath upon them. And so then at Calvary God moved away the veil of the law and the veil of death and the keeping of ordinances. Jesus rent the veil. That is to say within His body. Making Himself twain He rent the veil. He moved the Lord from the Christ, rent the veil, folded up the flesh, took the spiritual part out which was the Christ. Took it out. He made in His body twain, both Lord and Christ. He took the Christ out to show your spirit taken out of your body and then He crucified and killed the body to show your body dead because of sin and planted it in the ground, folding up the law and laid it away because when the body is folded up, put in the ground the law hath no power over a dead man. So the law is of no force anymore because it hath no power over the dead man. Delivered for our offenses by His body, doing away with our sin in that there is no good thing within the body, delivering us from the flesh. We're no longer in the flesh. Translated into the third heaven, as to the spiritual man. It's not of the flesh, not walking in the flesh anymore. Delivered from the flesh. And the flesh is dead and buried in a watery grave over there in the name of Jesus. God sees you then as the new image. Delivered for our offenses in the old body of Adam, raised for our justification in the new image. And the Bible says He appeared to them in a new form. So we are at the point to where we're going through the change, like the woman through the change of life, the travail is being over. We're going through the change now, coming to the end of it that we might enjoy the blessings of our husband as we travail for him, as to his new born image and to the multiplication of the earth. Multiply and replenish the earth. Humanity is now coming to that side and one is going to come out as a lovely bride of Christ, having reproduced the image of Christ. The other is going to come out as the gullible whore, the great whore that sat upon many waters and God said I'll burn her children with fire. Going to come out as the great whore that has produced the bastard image of entertainers, sports, ball players, celebrities, all of the things of the world that love the world and the ways of the world, the bastard child image. God is going to burn them with fire. Cast them into to a bed of adultery and I'll burn her children with fire. But them that love Christ's appearing, them that love to help the widows and the orphans, that feed the poor, them that long to live holy and godly and cast down every thought to bring it to a holy way of life that they can establish in the earth the Kingdom of God through the mind of Christ. These are going to be eternal people. God calls them God's, sons of God. God's that will rule and reign through eternity in all splendor and majesty. I've appointed unto you a kingdom, He said, eternal. All right. So then, we see this as the shadows, Paul's veil on the other side of Calvary. To you and I it's no more. The veil of death is gone. It's gone. Sometime the child being born has a veil over him. They call it the veil of death. It's gone. The intellectual veil is not over us anymore. I'm not stumbling around in the darkness of my rudeness of not knowing where I'm going or who I am and what life is all about. I'm not stumbling around in the realms of the tree of knowledge and the ole carnal mind of the wilderness where the serpents are, of the hurts, the knocks, the bumps. I'm not out there. I'm not in that world. I'm not in that mind anymore. See? I've been delivered from that and I'm in the mind of light and the world of understanding and I see the beauties of heaven and the beauties of God. And by this divine transformating of my mind, even as it was Enoch, I've passed from death unto life. My spiritual man has escaped the naughtiness of the outer man of the human body. I'm now in the wonderful world of God. I'm in a new world. So the veil has been rent in twain and this which was given to me in God before the world ever was in the foreknowledge of God has now come to surface. And as God said let there be light the light has come at Calvary. Brought to light at Calvary. Brought to light at Calvary through the preaching of the church ages. Now that light that is beginning to be sevenfold, as to the compound light of the sun. The Bible says, And the moon shall be sevenfold in that day. See? The light, the sun is already bright but the moon has been a precipitation, as to absorb it but it's going to break forth in a ball of fire and it's going to come sevenfold. And the church ages messengers, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Kind of like Brother Gary, just came off of seven days without food. Seven days of fasting. Now. And I felt sure he'd break it at seven days and he said he did. Well, anyway, we see the sevenfold light. Gary represents that as to Armstrong, the one that landed on the moon and from that is the dimensional step toward the Day Star. At this time Gary is going into Israel with us. He has to do with the church and the ending of that thing, the ending of the days of the Gentiles, the going out of that light to the Gentiles. And all of a sudden the change into the wonderful world of light as to the Jews, the salvation of the Jew, Christ, the Day Star, the head of the natural body coming back, the one with the nails in His hand. Christ has already come back. He's already. It's the Jesus that's coming back to them to redeem the body and change it into the child of light for the creature itself shall be changed, Paul said, into the glorious liberties of the sons of God. The creature being the body. So then, the inner Christ has already returned with his Revelation, with His understanding, with His mind. He's already translated you into the marvelous kingdom of your God, as to the inner man and you cannot go through the second death, which is the Lake of Fire, which is separation from God, as to your angelic being being separated from the angel of God, or the Spirit of God. All you can do is go into to a sleep, as to your body. And with the Jews coming in and God returning to the Jews it means that we have come to the knowledge to where we're ready now to master the body to where they can't put it in a casket anymore, can't put it in a grave anymore. We can't sleep anymore because outwardly death is not death that is sleep. That is sleep. I know you don't understand the differentiating but it is definitely not death. I can prove it to you. It is a sleep; definitely not death. So then, death is not of God. He was raised for my justification. All right. So then, we see this. Everything in the earth shows this. Let's use the little illustration. Now, I was talking to my wife about this coming on. I could kind of talked to her because we were by our self. But look. We've got with us Brother Ed. Some of you are familiar with the one they call Big Ed. He's not here this morning. A musical person; very musically talented. See? Everything testifies of God. Everything. It doesn't matter what it is. Some people use different things to illustrate but I'm not talking about an illustration. I use most anything to illustrate but I'm talking about a revelation. Things were put in the earth for the specific purpose of revealing some heavenly things. See? A man is a natural man as to the first dimension. He's put in the earth to revelate as to the spiritual man. As you take an egg out of the shell, peanut out of the hull, everything comes out. You take the mayonnaise out of the jar. Do you understand what I'm saying? You take the flour out of the sack. Everything, see? is an indwelling thing that must come out. The Bible says, And all of the invisible things of God, whereas, that that is in the enclosure is always the invisible. It is hid from the eye. So all of the invisible things of the God (God veils Himself in darkness so He will be light.) the veil of the intellectual mind. All of the invisible things from the creation of the world are clearly understood by the things which do appear, the natural types and shadows. Let's look at that for a minute and see. We spoke of Ed. (I was speaking to my wife about this.) We speak of music. Some of you don't understand music. So I'm going to take my time here just for a minute here with it. Okay? We pick up the song book. There we are. Now, we've got the song book. What does that mean? That means we are now guilty. We're now guilty. You say, Why is that, Brother Pike? Because the song book just preached to me and now I know the way of God. Now, you know that doesn't really happen, because you don't understand. See? You don't understand, but yet it's a sermon. It's a great sermon. It's a mighty revelation. But see? The thing is because you don't understand then you are not guilty. So the natural man he just goes along with the tongues, with the staff, with the degrees, with the clefs, with these things that pertains to music. See? Because he don't understand. Now. We're just going to take a little illustration to bring a revelation. Take just a minute or two if you'll be patient. Just tutoring and talking to you. Not preaching to you this morning, just tutoring and talking to you. All right. So I look at this. I remember when I wanted to learn how to write music. I thought, Lord, I'm a song writer and I'm an ignorant song writer. I can write lyrics; You inspire me. I receive them but I don't know how to write music. And I didn't have time to go off to college or school somewhere to study music, so I said, I don't understand. This is all so complicated to me. And I remember the Lord so carefully – You know, I strum a guitar a little bit and it was like Greek to me so far as understanding anything about it. But, anyway, the Lord said to me, said, Take the song book. I took the song book. He said turn your song book up this way, which I did. And I thought, My! That's strange. What in the world do I want to turn the song book up this way for? It's confusing enough to me the other way and here I am looking at it sideways. And then the Lord so clearly said to me, said, This is nothing more than a piano. Now people that know music would have know that no doubt. Said, It's nothing more than a piano, And I thought, It don't look like a piano to me. And He said, But it is. He said, On the left side these notes is your left hand, on the right side this is your right hand on the piano. And He said, In between here is the middle C. Said, That's your middle C. And He begin to explain to me and I found out concerning the degrees and as to the tones, as to the moods. We say, "Do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do." See? God said the piano is only seven tones. And I thought, No, there's about eighty-eight keys there, you know. No, just seven. So as to make, to cover seven, you know, you reach all the way from do to do. How many of you understand what I'm saying? So then, all you've got is an octave. Either the left hand or right hand and wherever you put the octave that's all there is to music. It's not all that complicated. There's not but just seven tones; do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do. Whether it's in round notes or whether it's in shaped notes to show the moods, that is in shaped notes. So it's only an octave and it's from do to do. So do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do, which means the do is back to the beginning, back to the original. It's the eighth note. It's the do note. So then, when you put your hand down there you've covered the whole piano. If you sing you've covered the whole thing. So, whatever I play over here if I'm in G, as to an octave, if I just move up one more octave I'll play the very same thing with the very same notes. It will just be in a higher pitch. (Begin tape two, side one.) If I go to the left I'll just play it in a lower key. And then He said to me concerning the guitar, showed me there was no problem. Just said consider the strings. And I looked at them and I thought, Well, they still look like Greek to me. He said, But when you buy strings you buy them according to alphabet. I thought, That's right. And then He told me to consider the string, as to the first string, the E string. And from that He opened it up. We could go into it like this. It's so simple until I wrote music for my guitar. Within a few minutes I was writing music for my guitar. Can you imagine that? It takes years to learn music, then some of it's still complicated. Well, anyway, as pertaining to this, God does all things. They that have the spirit of God upon them, they that love the Lord, are of a good understanding and a quick understanding. So all things are yours. Now. It in the wilderness they didn't have any colleges. They didn't have any industries, but the Bible says their feet didn't swell. They were all of a good understanding. Their knowledge was so great that the Bible says when they went into Canaan that the fear of the people was concerning their understanding. Their understanding was so great that the fear of Israel was upon all the people. They were afraid of them. So you see? I'm saying this for a spiritual purpose, as to a definition. We'll get it in just a few minutes. So you've got, as to your tones, all the way from the left, as to the bottom, all the way to up. You've got an alphabetical order. ABC. And in the spaces you say FACE. On the lines you say, Every good boy does fine. That is as to the top but in all reality it's the alphabet. Because if you FACE and every good boy does fine, if you put them together in order as to EF, right on up, it's just your ABC's, which is the first thing you learn in life, and a numerical order. There's not much to music when you understand it through God but it's a complicated world if you don't have God. But God let music be there as a type and a shadow to show something. Do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do. The seven church ages right there. The seven messengers right there. The seven tones right there, on degrees right there. Beautiful the steps, as to the ladder, Jacob's ladder, right on up, as to the degrees. And then your little measure bars. A lot of times you'll take a – And I'm not trying to teach music; I'm trying to teach you God. But, anyway, you learn all things when you learn about God. You take – In music you've got a cleft over here, whether G cleft or C cleft, whatever, you know, two flats, one sharp, whatever. That is to say, if you're going to have dominate, sub-dominate. You're going to have – Like you're going to hit do and skip one note and hit another note and skip another; going to take about three notes and you're going to form a cord after the dominate, sub-dominate or the third and the fifth and whatever. Now. When you do that you've got a cord. So if you're going to have a cleft over here, as to a C cleft or whatever, it's going to be a cord. Then on the white notes on the piano that's called the diatonic, or on the black notes that's called the chromatic scale. If you hit one of the whites, that's a step in music, like do. If you hit another one of the white notes that's a step in music. But if you happen to hit one of the chromatic, one of the black it's a half a step in music. See? If it is a half, if you hit like a black note, if it's on the right side of the ascending of music, as on the side of middle C. And I want you to get this step now. On the side of middle C you hit that, as to a excelling, as to a higher pitch. Do you understand what I'm saying? Because if you hit the white note, as to C, and then you hit the little black note on the side of it, or we'll go on up to another note here because there's a place where there's not any chromatic scale at all. You hit a note, whatever the note it, and in front of that you've got a sharp because a sharp is a half a step in music. That's on the chromatic scale. That's what you're blacks are. It's the same way with the organ over here. If you play the peddle. They look complicated but if you'll look at the peddles real close – I had the Lord to point it out one day and said it nothing but – Said, it's the same as a piano board. When I looked it's nothing but the piano board with chromatic and the diatonic, so you bounce from one to another. So in this it makes things real easy. It makes you of a quick understanding because the Spirit of God enlightens everything just like that. So then, over on the clef side you see a sharp because your chord made of three notes, or four, may take in a sharp, a chromatic. Or if it's on the left side of a note it is a flat so it might be wrote in two flats. Who knows? But you'll find a little line there. They'll cut off a note or two because you are looking for your do note, as to your down beat. You are looking for that and that is your starting point. Whatever degree it's on. Whether it's in a space, whether it's on a line, whatever it is; it's a do note after your down beat. If it's in G then that's the chord you're looking for. That's what it's written in. All right. Now. Enough on the musical side. We will say this to clarify things. A lot of times when we speak of your measures, or your timing – I want you to listen to this real close because we speak of time being no more. Music has got what you call timing. Speaking of all the invisible things revealed by the visible. If you want to preach to somebody and they're musical don't go talking about a field of corn. If you want to preach to a farmer talk about the field of corn, and say not four months and then cometh harvest. And then revelate it and you've already got it. You've got a hook in the fish and he can't get out. Can't get out because you are a fellow to him. You are a farmer and he's a farmer. Do you understand what I'm saying. Honey is the same way. You can revelate it. But don't try to dress the fish before you catch it. Get him on the hook; catch him. So then, when you talk to a man about music go into the music, be of like mind and then revelate it. Let your natural spirit go into the music. There's nothing wrong with that. Keep the infiltration of Lucifer's mind out. You know what I preach about the three minds. And then revelate it and bring it to the God mind and you've done a perfect job and you've got him through his natural mind and he can't get away and all you've got to do is revelate it and he's standing there looking at heaven and he can't figure out what's happening to save his life. He can't go nowhere he's fascinated. So we see here when it comes to time – I'm going to mention this because sometimes when I'm speaking of time being no more, as to the origin of time, as to the ending of time as to the dissipating of life this will help you to understand what I'm saying. When it comes to timing in music, timing is by pulsation. Most of you understand that. According to the pulsation that's the intervals. And they have a little thing of what they call beating time. One, two, three. One, two, three. Or one, two, three, four. One, two, according to the pulsation. Are you understanding any of what I'm saying? I want you to get the spiritual lesson out of that. Or, that is to say to take a whole note, now. I wish we had time to go into this and revelate it all. We're just going to be able to touch on a little of it. Maybe we'll bring some more in some other time. Take a whole note. The whole pie, cut it into four parts; you've got fourths. So music and timing are always four pieces. Four fourths. That's the way it's written. Three fourths, four fourths. It's always four, as a rule. So, one, two, you've done cut it in halves. Do you understand what I'm saying? One whole note. One piece of pie all cut in half. Or if you're going to break it down to fourths you've got four parts of it, as to your little black notes with your little staff on it. Or your black note as a half, you know how it's colored, or your whole note as to the white. So when you put the little staff on you've got a quarter and then if you want to get any farther along, one, two, three, four; just four parts. If you want to get any farther you've got to come down to fractions even the more. Nothing but fractions; that's what time is. So you take and you break down your fourth note and the fourth is a composition of two eighths. So you break it down and you've got two eighth notes. So if you go to count time and you got to say, One and two and three, because you've got to add the little and because you've done broke it down again. And if you go to break it down again then you break the eighth note half into and you've got a sixteenth note. When you go to count time you've got to say, One and er two and er because you've got to make allowance for split notes. How many of you understand what I'm saying? And if you put a little dot in behind either one of those notes, as to a four, as to an eighth, as to a sixteenth you break it in half again just by a little black dot. And it will break an eighth note down to a sixteenth. That is, it will just add one part of the eighth note, as to another sixteenth. And if you put a dot behind a dot it will break that sixteenth down to a thirty second, as to a dot behind a dot and add another thirty seconds of a beat. So then that takes care of that. So they divide it up into measures and if the song is slow they break down the notes and they stretch it out and they put a little bar over here called a measure bar. So they go, you know, like do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do. And they go through the break down, and er, and er, hitting the piano to one, two and er, beating time with a little peddle. Do you understand what I'm saying? If it's a little faster well, they bunch it up and here they go. And that's all there is to it. But, this is the thing that we're interested in. When you hold your book up like this, see? You've got, from the bottom level coming up with your alphabetical order and when you hit the top line, as to the bottom staff here, coming up this lower degree, as you come up and you hit it you've got the top line as A and anything below that is like the space before it, G, because music is seven steps. It doesn't go any higher than G, as to alphabetical order. So down through the spaces, down through you line, it goes right on down. See? And it comes up, and this is what we're interested in. When you hit the top line you've got A. And the next thing you come into is a big gap in between those two places where you put in the tones, or the little notes. So you've got an empty space. But, really, you haven't got an empty space because when you turn it up this way there is suppose to be a line in there. But they don't put a line in the middle of that. They'll put a line down under the E line at the top and draw a little line through it, or a note down that is, and draw a little line through it. So, that little line through that note that is below the space that has been made by putting another line down there, that is called middle C. So it ordinarily would be right in the middle of that big gap. So you would start with A line on the bottom and then come to a space, which would be a B space and then this line that they put in there which is a C line, with a note on it. That's middle C and the next space is D and then, of course, the beginning of that top is E; every good boy does fine. Now, do you understand all of that? I'm not going to get to go into what I wanted to go into but I want to bring this out to where you can understand it. Does that make it simple? That makes it simple, doesn't it? All right. Now. What does that mean to us in the spirit world? I told you, do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do. Isn't that the way it is on the top? Do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do? Isn't that the way it is on the bottom? Do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do? But one is leading up to middle C and the other is leading away from middle C. So then, what is middle C? It's Calvary. It's Calvary. That is C, the cross. It is Calvary. So your middle C is Calvary which means that coming from the garden, leading up it Calvary, it is a diminishing thing. You are counting time backwards. You are saying as to the BCs and you are coming down from 312 to 311 to 310, on down until you come down to BC 1. And that is BC, before Christ. So you come on down and then after that, as to Anno Domini, you come on the other side and you start you ascension. Because, see? The fall is from the garden down to Calvary and you are falling, falling. All of these generations are falling through the deterioration to the corruption, coming on down unto the veil of death. All of it is falling and that's what it has to do with on that bottom staff. If you go from Calvary, see? It's down, down, down, down, down, down. Do you understand what I'm saying? It is a fall because Lucifer is cast out at Calvary. That indicates the fall from the garden down. It's the ultimatum. Revelation 12 is showing this, that's why I read it. On the other side is an ascension. It is the body of Christ that's been down, down, down into the chambers of hell and then come back up in a new form and now it's ascending. It's do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do; going back up as the Jacob's ladder where the angels are ascending and descending for Jesus said unto the man, From henceforth you shall see angels descending and ascending upon the Son of Man. He was obviously the fullness of the church ages and the fullness of the knowledge of God and he was obviously Jacob's ladder that through that door by that ladder of his dimensional understanding, as to the breakdown of the church ages, as to do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti-do in the type, that's the way we get into heaven. So we see that Calvary is there. Now, on that side as to the ascension, we are on the side that is ascending, going up. Going up higher, higher in the school of wisdom, the song writer said, ever let me go. But on the other side you're going down, down, down, down. See? You're going either to a tenor, to a soprano. You are going either to a bass, or an alto, whatever. You are taking these things like the four beast around the throne, and a lot that we could get into concerning it, but you're taking these things on a level and you are bringing then to Calvary because as we say as to the middle C. Music was given as a type and a shadow to testify of the glory of God and to let us see. And that type, as well as every other type that we go into the invisible things of God clearly understood from the foundation of the world by the natural musical tones that men write and that they sing; these things that you see. And so it is with God in everything, and this knowledge, this revelation, this light is hid from all the world and they don't see this unless it is revealed to them by God. The Bible says God has hid this from the eyes of the great men of understanding, the great powers and intellectual, the great learned people. He has hid this from the wise and the prudent and made it revelation unto babes, revealed it unto you, those that are willing to learn. I say again, to the great educational system you are the babes. They consider you nothing because they are great scientist. So God has made this revelation and the Spirit of God is there. And the Bible says pray that God will grant unto you the spirit of revelation. Paul said, I would like to speak unto you as unto spirituals but seeing that you are babes in Christ I can't. Just desire the sincere milk of the Word that you might grow thereby. But pray that God will grant unto you the spirit of revelation. So, see? In coming into revelation you learn all things. If you want to know music you can know music. You can learn all things while God revelates to you the wonderful mind of Christ, the hidden mind of God. He said, Job, have you ever entered into the treasures of the snow. That is: Do you know the revelation of music? the treasure of the music? Do you know the revelation of the snow? For Paul said this is heavenly treasure that I'm receiving into my earthen vessel through this great wonderful revealing of the Word of God. Even the knowledge, not science falsely so-called from the garden, but the revelated mind of Christ that creates a diamond, that creates gold, that creates human life, that creates human beings, that creates the stars and the moon and the universe. That's the real treasure. So, those things that people treasure as natural substances are created by us as sons of God. The Bible says worlds without end, and to the increase of His Kingdom there shall be no end. So in this little crude illustration remember that is Calvary. That is Calvary. And those tones will speak to you. If I had time to go into this and really fully revelate it, whereas you can do it. If you get into the Spirit of God it will revelate just like that. Every bit of it. It will keep revelating to you. And the dimensional depths are great reaching all the way back to the garden coming down to Calvary and reaching all the way over to the millennium, as to the restoration of the garden. And these beautiful things are seen and illustrated. While you are working as a house wife let it be revelated to you as you roll the biscuits. While you're working in the musical field, as Randy does, let it be revelated to you. And let Christ tutor you. All the time you're making your natural living your inner man is developing. Though the outer man perish; yet the inner man is renewed day by day. And coming to church to listen, to hear, and even as this little talk that I gave you this morning, not preaching at you but just talking to you, these things will stay with you. And you can enlarge upon these things and it will become such a great thrill. Take the star and let God revelate the stars and you'll find that the heavens declare His handiwork as the Bible says. Enoch was translated by going through that means of tutoring. See? Take the stars. The Bible says they were set there for signs and seasons, and God will revelate it to you. How beautiful is the revelation of the solar system. How beautiful. How beautiful is the revelation of music. How beautiful is the revelation of the human frame of studying this, as to human anatomy, or human being, or coming in to the world of chemistry and let God revelate the world of chemistry to you. How beautiful it is, God revelating the world of geography, or the geographics of life. God revelating those things, as to archeology, all of those things. Right now, science, falsely so-called. I think they said they had found a place down is South Georgia somewhere, the Brethren was telling me this morning, about nine miles down. It seems to be a liquid. They can't tell whether it's oil or water. But if it be water they say it's just blown the theory of science all to pieces, as to the water use as to the formation of the mantle of the earth. Whatever it is God will revelate it. So beautiful is the life of God. Only those that are the sons of God, that have the mind of God, that live in the other world can see beyond the veil and understand that world because they live there. Others can never know. They can't see when good comes; their eyes are blinded. They have a veil over their mind, even the death or carnality. So then, seeing this, knowing this your opportunity is exceedingly great, especially at this moment of the rent veil. Let's stand together. I didn't mean to keep you quite so long. I was just going to speak to you about a few little things but I get into these things and then I have to have them on tape because sometimes they go on radio as to a tutoring, as to a series, or people all over the nation and the different parts of the world get the tapes and they'll get confused. They don't understand because I don't complete my subject. So you have to be the scapegoat and you have to want to be the one that goes to Calvary, to be patient, to endure sound doctrine while we get this into your heart and the hearts of newcomers and into the hearts of them by radio. A radio station called recently and wanted to know why we came off of it. They were still wanting our message on it, was getting a terrific response from different parts of the world on this particular radio station. But I felt like they mistreated a friend of ours, as to the man that was in management. He had ask us to withdraw for his sake, in that they mistreated his so we did. By the way, Betty, the man is going to calls us because they are still pressing the issue for us to go back on. Let's sing a little chorus together. We're glad to have you. It's our privilege to talk with you, confront you with these things and make conversation for Jesus. The Bible says let your conversation be in heaven, or your talk be holy and meditate in His laws day and night. This is our pleasure and joy. Being enriched the more with life. And this is but just a tiny little bit of the many hundreds and thousands and millions of things that God has bestowed upon us. Paul said, My much revelation. If you pray for the spirit of revelation you can have this heavenly treasure in your earthen vessels. Let's sing the chorus I Love Him, can we? (Singing.) Sing it with me, now. (Singing.) The altars are open if you'd like to come. (Singing.) Sing it with me now. (Singing.) Sing it with me. (Singing.) You know, the Bible says it shall come to pass that whosoever calleth upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Calling on the name of the Lord, Paul, and wash away your sins, the writer said. Now is the wonderful time to call upon Jesus. Call upon Him while He may be found. Call upon Him while He's near. Now is the day of acceptation. The Bible says He has accepted us in a day, accepted and succored us and now is the day. Now is day, the day of the Lord. Now is the day. So the Bride says come, the Bridegroom says come. Let whosoever will say come, or let them come and partake of the waters of life freely. He that hath no money let him come. Let's sing that chorus, This Is The Day. (Singing.) Can you sing it again? (Singing.) Do you love the Lord? Let's sing Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound. (Singing. Begin tape two, side two.) Do you love the Lord Jesus? We're getting closer to the crown. The crown departed from Israel. Nine seventy-five B.C., 721 B.C. the Gentile age had began to dawn and come in and the crown suddenly disappeared from Israel. It went away. That is to say the kingship was taken away. Down in Egypt it went, down to Babylon, that is. Civilization a derivative from Egypt, all of a sudden we found it coming back to the Papacy of Rome, as to Peter the descendant. Or that is to say, the Vicar of Christ, as to His crown. Bringing it on down, as to the church ages by the Pope of Rome. They held it until not too long ago when we spoke of the revelation of the crown departing from them and coming to the church. That is to say, going back to Israel. When the Lord came to Israel they didn't receive their king. Pilate said, Will you crucify your king? The crown was returned. Will you then crucify your king? And so they did. And the crown had gone down into Babylon, having been taken away from them and then come back and then it went to the Gentiles, and as to Peter having the keys to the Kingdom, as to Rome. Now the Gentile days are over and it's returning. It's returning back to the Jews and they'll accept it this time. They'll accept it. The natural crown went to the Pope of Rome to that body of people, but the spiritual crown of life, even Christ, came to the true Jew, to the true church and to the Gentile age, which crown you have in your heart. We spoke of the end of the natural crown that had gone down, transitionally speaking, through the Roman Catholic Church to show, as the end of it, the coming in of the Jews, the redemption of the body which means at that time the spiritual Jew coming into the change of the body being crowned with eternal life and caught away to the throne, as to the crown. And then Jesus, as to the natural throne, the earth, as to the crown returning to the Jews and they will crown Him Messiah. They are waiting and looking for their Messiah. So then, the crown is at hand. That's why we're going to Israel. Not too long ago they crowned Jimmy Carter, J. C., Jesus Christ, the type we spoke of, what he had to do with and what Reagan had to do with. They crowned him while we were over there. We were over about that time; near the same time. He stayed in the King David, as to the old; on one side of Calvary. We stayed in the King Solomon, as to the new; the son of David, on the other side. For it is said that the son of David shall sit upon the throne, even Christ. There is a lot we could say about that. So you see that we are on the other side of the middle C. We're on the ascending side. We're not on the diminishing side. We're on the ascending side, as to the church ages, as to Jacob's ladder. And higher, higher in the school of wisdom ever let me go. What a wonderful opportunity. The Bible says that this is exceedingly high and above all powers and principalities of the earth and it is so exceedingly great, abundantly above all that man in his professional, professor-like life can confess to, or claim. This is so high above him as the heavens is the earth, as to the wise and the prudent, but still this great treasure of heavenly treasure, as to the mind of God, as to the knowledge of God, as the wisdom of God. The Bible says now is made known to the church the manifold wisdom of God, this heavenly treasure in your earthen vessel is now made available to you. I explained to Sister Betty on the way up here how that faith works, how that faith is positive and not sporadic and how that it comes about, how that it eradicates death. Enoch was translated that he should not see death. What the standards of faith are, what the foundation of faith is, as to the cultivation and development of faith. As to faith drawing its dividends, as to faith and the power of faith, as to Jesus returning in the power of the spirit, as to them that after that ye receive the Holy Ghost, the Holy Ghost's power, then ye shall receive power to be My witnesses and power to transformated and translate and transfigure. That is, power to become an eternal quickening spirit, power to become a son of God. Let's sing another chorus or two, can we? Then we're going to dismiss. We sing the little chorus Jesus Use Me, let's sing that, can we? (Singing.) Sing it one more time. (Singing.) Can you sing it one more time with me? (Singing.) Can you sing it again? How many of you would like for Jesus to use you? Let me see your hands, would you? Really and truly? All right. Let's sing it again together. One more time. Take the start now. (Singing.) Let's lift our hands up again, close our eyes. Don't forget the services tonight. We just got tonight. We won't be with you no more after tonight until we return from Israel. We'll be with the brethren in the men's meeting, if the good Lord sees fit but so far as our services tonight it'll be the last night we'll be with you. Think on these things that I spoke to you about, take these things into your heart and consider these things and think about these things and the value of these things to you and what they mean to you as an individual, because God loves you and God wants to use you. And you're the main player. I say this so often: you're the main player. In the drama of your life you're the main player. You're the star of the show, of the great revealing of Christ within your life. You're not second to anyone. See? It's your life. It's your drama. It's your role of life. It's as to you. He said, I've appointed you a kingdom. I've made you a son of God. He said, Ye are Gods. So it's you as the God that's on His throne, as to His Kingdom, as to being the star, the bright and the morning star, the Day Star, as to Christ showing forth in your life as the great light, as to the members of your body and those that you win to God. And to the replenishing of your kingdom, as to how many you win, as to a father, as to a child, as to manhood, as to woman, as to reproduction, as to grandchildren, as to great- grandchildren. And on it goes as God the great Ancient of Days whose hair was as white as the wool. When He comes forth He will sit upon the throne, His hair as white as the wool. And then the Son of God, even the Lord Jesus, He'll reign throughout endless ages as wisdom is with the Ancient. The Ancient of Days, the Desire of Ages, He's called; the Day Spring from on High that's visited His people. So it's up to you. What will you do with Christ? And Pilate said, Here he is, what will you do with the man called Jesus? What will you do with Him in your life? He's on your hands. His blood is on your hands. Paul preached and said, Your blood be upon your own head; I've delivered my soul. So then, what will you do with this man called Jesus? Somebody said, Crucify Him, crucify Him. Let my gullible desire for the froward way of life crucify Him afresh and put Him to an open shame. Crucify Him. Let the old fleshly Barabbas of the gullible desire of self-will and self-ambition go free and live. So it was. So they did, but what will you do with Jesus, even the inner babe that is to be born in your life if you allow it. When you do, as it was of the mothers. Through the night one smothered the little one to death. The other one protected her little child. That little inner Christ, will you smother Him to death with your evil abase mannerism of life and your ego for fleshly desire or will you mother the little one, love the little one as did the mother that it might be whole and healthy in the morning. For at the coming of the great judge – You know, as it is said in the Old Testament if you have the little child then do you have the inheritance. If you don't have the child you don't have the inheritance at the coming of the great judgment morning. Even Solomon set upon his throne as a type it, differentiating between the two mothers, as to the two lives and the loss of a child, as to the darkness of death, the intellectual reasoning. When the mother said, This is my child, the true mother, and the other mother said, Nay, but it's my child. Solomon said, Bring forth a sword. And the great man of wisdom said, Divide the child and give one part to one mother, the other part to another mother. And so the veil was to be rent in twain. And so it happened at Calvary. And we went into a revelation concerning as to what mother got what part. But as to one mother that requested this, she received her part. Her part; she chose a dead child. Let him be rent in twain and give me of my part, even a dead child. The other mother, that is to say as to the Jewish part as to that that was shown by the Jews, as to death, crucify Him. But as to the other mother she said, Nay. Nay. I don't want to be a religious proselyte. I don't want to divide my inheritance. For though Abraham had two children, as to the bonds maid, as to the wife, as to one representing New Jerusalem, Sarah, the mother of us all. As to one answering to Mount Sinai, even Hagar, who now is as a Jew and in bondage with her children. Relating to the world and the bondage of the beggarly elements of the world, as to the flesh, but as to the spiritual Jew, as to the Christ. So the mother said, Nay. Drive out the bonds woman, even the world. I won't have any part of it. And drive out the bonds child. So then, God says, Though I have two children, as to a natural and a spiritual, I must do away with the natural. And so it was; He gave His Son at Calvary and away went the world, as to sin and infiltration. And the mother said the bonds child shall not be heir with my child. So then, on the other side of Calvary, as to the spiritual mother, the real church, He says, And we will not divide it for the flesh cannot be heir with my spiritual child, even the second man Adam. Can't be heir with it for darkness and light can't dwell together and the temples of God hath no fellowship with the temples of Belial. Won't be any fellowship. Drive out the bonds woman. And so the Jew went out of the presence of God to the wilderness wandering, as to the death of the flesh, that God decreed death upon all flesh, even the beast that his origin being from the garden he should be cast out. Bondage to the beggarly elements of the world. And now the Christ child lives. And now a new body a new form, even flesh of His flesh and bone of His bone, as to the body of the Lord Jesus Christ, whose body ye are, the temples of God, members in particular by the foreknowledge of God, as to the change that God sees in the ultimatum of the church and it's maturity at the Thessalonian change. So on this side you see this heavenly child that's in another world. Solomon took the sword and said divide it asunder. Rend the veil. And so one mother accepted it as the rent veil and the death of the child and her inheritance as death. Her inheritance as death. But the other mother said, A whole child. I'll take him in his new form, in the resurrection and the light, as to my justification, as to my inheritance. So the mother said, Nay, King Solomon, let the other mother have the child. Don't kill the child, let it live. Solomon took the child and said, give the child to the mother that said let it live. Said, This is the true mother. She careth for the life of the child. A bunch of religious parasites, Charismatic hypocrites, religious people that doesn't care about the Christ as long they have the religious blessings of all of the good things of God, as to the inheritance, as to come by the child, as through Isaac shall all nations be blessed, as to Abraham's son that was laid on the altar, even Jesus. So then, Solomon said, She careth for the life but the others are religious parasites, taking advantage of the days of grace, turning God's grace into lasciviousness and killing out the little Christ. The religious, the godly religious way of life and the inbred goodness and love and understanding of our darling Savior and His desire, killing out His mind. Paul said, I travailed until Christ be formed within you. So as to bring forth the image in the morning, as to His image, as to His loveliness, as to the child, raptured up into His arms as into the throne, as the members as to His head, in that He's the head of the church. So you see where we're standing, folks. On one side, as we say, a Calvary, when we spoke of the music. Some on the other side. One is to enter into something that is so beautiful, if we had time to revelate and go into it. The other as to a diminishing thing. Let's close our eyes, lift our hands up. I'm going to ask Brother Collin to come up and dismiss us. While Brother Collin is coming to pray consider Jesus. Consider me, if you will and consider the revelation of the Son of God. I ask you to consider it, the revelation of the Son of God. Receive ye the Holy Ghost for as many as receive the Holy Ghost, even the Spirit of Christ, to them gave He power to become the Sons of God. Not that they just believed for people without the Holy Ghost can believe, but to believe in the Word, in the Holy Ghost, in the Word, in the Spirit, in the mind of Christ. To believe in God that is faith. And Enoch was translated by faith. If you believe as a natural person you do well. If you believe there is one God, the devil believed and trembled, but that will not save you. But faith, which means receiving the Holy Ghost, receiving Christ, thus your believing becomes anointed and it becomes faith in the Word. God deals unto every man the measure. While Collin is praying for you don't forget the services tonight. Don't forget to invite somebody to come. Don't forget to talk to somebody. We're glad to have you here. I say again that we're glad to have Steve here. Glad to see him down at the altar with the others. Glad to see him here. While Collin prays with you call on the name of the Lord out of your heart. Ask Jesus to forgive your sins. Surrender your heart and spirit to God. Give Him your heart. Right now call on Him out of your heart. Give Him your heart. Give the rest of your life to Jesus. Make your life a great and a mighty thing and to be great and mighty in the sight of God as John and Daniel, Abraham, and the others were, as unto eternal life as to a heavenly celebrity in this life, as to a godly dignitary, as to a pillar in this life that holds up the testimony, or the tabernacle, or the temple of God. Someone that someone can lean upon in the time of help and need, as to develop your understanding, as to know about Jesus and this wonderful wisdom of God, as the to the revelation of Christ Jesus. While our Brother Collin prays. Brother Collin.
