God is Thought. The brightness of our revelations depends upon the correctness of our doctrines, our building blocks, our Godly Thoughts laid one upon another, ascending into the mind of Christ.

 

(Deut 9:1-3) Hear, O Israel [Heb: he will rule as God /// prevail, have power (as a prince)] [1]: Thou art to pass over [Heb: to cross over; transition, translate] [being completely washed by/through the river] Jordan [Heb: (the) descender] [a type and shadow of the Holy Spirit] this day [into the promised land] [2], to go in to possess [Heb: to occupy; to seize, to inherit] nations greater [Heb: great in any sense; hence older; also insolent] [3] and mightier [Heb: (more) powerful] than thyself, cities great and fenced [Heb: clipped off (in the sense of gathering [bad-evil] grapes); walled up, fortified] up to heaven [i.e., “strong holds,” cities separated from Heaven and fortified against Heaven] [4], A people great and tall, the children of the Anakims [giants, modern giants = politicians, business CEOs, military Generals and Admirals, etc., generally leaders], whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the children of Anak [5]! Understand therefore this day, that the LORD thy God is he which goeth over before thee [in front of you as my Word out of your mouth] [6]; as a consuming fire [7] he shall destroy [Heb: desolate: bring to nought] them [the Anakims], and he shall bring them down [Heb: to bend the knee; humiliate, vanquish: subdue (them)] before thy face: so shalt thou [as an “instrument” channeling the power of God] drive them out [of the kingdom of God, out of the kingdom of Heaven] [8], and destroy them quickly, as the LORD hath said unto thee.

1.    (Rom 2:28,29)  For he is not a [true, real] Jew [in the eyes of God], which is one outwardly [Gk: publicly]; neither is that circumcision [the cutting away of excess flesh of the penis (the male organ)], which is outward in the flesh [make you a true, real Jew]: But he is a [true, real] Jew, which is one inwardly [Gk: privately]; and circumcision [the cutting away of excess flesh] is that of the heart [Gk: the thoughts (mind)] [we are vessels (moving containers) “all under sin” (Gal 3:22) containing our/Satan’s thoughts vs. God’s thoughts], in the spirit, and not in the letter [Gk: writing, book] [an allusion to the Old Testament (Rom 7:6; 2 Cor 3:6), i.e., you sin, you die]; whose praise [Gk: laudation; a commendable thing] is not of men, but of God.

2.    Commentary: “Thou art to pass over Jordan this day” = symbolically and prophetically, a step by step (it’s a walk) process, we are to completely (a process) die to all our flesh, completely washed off, separated completely from our flesh by Jordan. The flesh (our natural soul) shall perish, and we will become born-again (a process) in the (supernatural) Spirit by the process figuratively depicted in Exodus 14:19-31, by crossing (fig. supernaturally washing in) the Red (Heb: reed, espec. the papyrus) sea (i.e., the Bible “the washing of water by the word” Eph 5:26). We are currently walking through our salvation (Rom 8:1,4). Soon, we shall become completed in our present experiential salvation (our walk), and commence experiencing our eternal positional salvation.

3.    insolent = Dict: 1. boldly disrespectful in speech or behavior; impertinent; impudent. 2. arrogantly comtemptuous; overbearing. Syn: proud.

4.    (2 Cor 10:3-5) For though we [who are “instruments,” of God, moving vessels of God] walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal [Gk: fleshly], but mighty [Gk: powerful] through [the power of] God to the pulling down [Gk: demolition; fig. extinction: destruction] of strong holds [Gk: fortifications; castles (fig. arguments)];) Casting down imaginations [Gk: (fanciful-prideful) thoughts], and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought [i.e., every unclean spirit, devil, demon, fallen angel] to the obedience of Christ;

5.    (Num 13:33) And there we saw the giants [Heb: a feller, bully, tyrant] [one who cuts or throws things down], the sons of Anak, which come [are born] of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

a.     (Gen 6:4)  There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God [fallen angels, devils, unclean spirits, demons] came in unto [mated with] the daughters of men, and they [the women] bare [hybrid] [i] children to them [the women bare hybrid children (giants) to certain fallen angel parents who are now imprisoned in Hell (a temporary holding tank) “into chains of darkness” 2 Pet 2:4 & Jude 1:6], the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown [fame, notorious].

                                                             i.      hybrid = Dict: 1. the offspring produced by crossing two individuals of unlike genetic constitution; specif. the offspring of two animals or plants of different races, varieties, species, etc. 2. anything of mixed origin, unlike parts, etc.

b.    Commentary: hybrid children = like mules who are the offspring of the mating of a horse (1200 pounds) with a donkey (300 pounds). By analogy, compare a fallen angel (huge in size/power) with a woman (small in size/power). Interestingly, a mule (1000 pounds), is much larger in size/power than its donkey (300 pound) parent, likewise a giant to a man.

6.    (Rev 19:13-15) And he [Christ Jesus at His second coming] was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp [double-edged] sword [logos (Heb 4:12) rhema (Eph 6:17), i.e., His tongue], that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress [crushing the “wild grapes” (Isa 5:2,3)] of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

7.    (Heb 12:29) For our God is a comsuming fire. [“a consuming fire” Deut 4:24; 9:3; Heb 12:29]

a.     (Jer 23:29 Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?

8.    (Luke 17:20,21)  And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation [Gk: ocular evidence: observation]: Neither shall they say, Lo [Look] here! or, lo [look] there! for, behold, the kingdom of God [Heaven] is within  [Gk: inside] you.
