THIS BLESSING IS FOR ALL THAT READ AND/OR HEAR… THESE WORDS

(Rev 1:1-3) The Revelation [Gk: disclosure: appearing, coming, manifestation] of Jesus Christ [1], which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants [you and me] things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel [His angels (Heb: messengers) speak to us through God’s words (messages) in the Bible, i.e., the messenger is the message] unto his servant [the disciple] John: Who bare record of the word [Gk: logos] of God [2], and of the testimony of Jesus Christ [man-God, like us except that we who are saved are, until our translation or death, still a man-godsmall g, i.e. still without the active fullness of the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ said twice “Ye are gods” Psa 82:6; John 10:34], and of all things that he saw. (Rev 1:3) Blessed [Gk: fortunate, well-off: happy] is he that readeth [Gk: to know again], and they that hear [Gk: understand] the words [Gk: logos] of this prophecy, and keep [Gk: (watch); guard (from loss or injury): serve] those things which are written therein: for the time [for/of understanding] is at hand [3].

1.    (John 1:14) And the Word [Gk: logos] [of God] was made flesh [symbolically, Jesus Christ is the Bible, or, Jesus Christ is a metaphor of the Bible], and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten [seed] of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

2.    (Luke 8:11) Now the parable is this: The seed is the word [Gk: logos] of God

a.     Commentary: Jesus (man) = Gk: logos, the seed; Christ (spirit) = Gk: rhema, the fruit. The spirit of God (Christ) sown (seeded) inside the man (Jesus), like us.

3.    (Heb 4:12) For the word [Gk: logos] of God [is Jesus Christ (John 1:14) whose “name is called The Word of God” Rev 19:13] is quick [Gk: alive], and powerful [Gk: active, operative: effectual /// doing], and sharper [Gk: to cut, as if by a single stroke versus hacking] than any twoedged [e.g., Jesus/Christ, the logos/rhema Bible] sword [i.e., the sword of the Lord], piercing [Gk: to reach through, penetrating] even to the dividing asunder [Gk: separation] of soul [our natural thoughts] and spirit [our spiritual thoughts], and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner [Gk: discriminative /// judge] of the thoughts and intents of the heart [Gk: mind]

 

GRAND DECEPTION FUELS THE APOCALYPSE

(2 Cor 11:13-15) For such are false apostles [Gk: pretended preachers], deceitful [lying] workers, transforming [Gk: transfiguring, disguising] [changing] themselves [1] into the apostles [Gk: delegates, ambassadors] of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers [other fallen angels] also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works [2].

1.    (Php 1:6) Being confident of this very thing, that he [God] which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ [His return, His second coming]

a.     (Php 2:13) For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. 

2.    (Heb 13:1,2) Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain [Gk: be hospitable to] strangers: for thereby some [persons] have entertained [good and bad (evil)] angels unawares [Gk: being ignorant] [that they were doing so]

 

THE BASIC WORLDWIDE DECEPTION

(Rev 6:1,2) And I saw when the Lamb [of God, Jesus Christ] opened [for us to see, experience, and understand] one of the seals [i.e., the first seal] [1], and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder [the blurred background voices of a massive company of angels (including redeemed saint-angels)], one of the four beasts [i.e., alien angels, “four living creatures” Ezek 1:1-28 & Rev 4:7] [2] saying, Come and see. And I saw, and behold a white [symbol of innocence] horse [symbol of great power]: and he [symbolically representing the great power of “strong delusion” 2 Thess 2:11] that sat on him [the rider in control of the reins] had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering [present time], and to conquer [future time]

1.    Commentary: symbolically, this first seal (and base platform) is “strong delusion” (lies) which completely encompass and thoroughly influence, with increasing intensity, the first four seals of the Apocalypse, ending at the conclusion of the Great Tribulation (i.e., the fourth seal).

2.    (Ezek 1:10) As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle

 

THE TRUTH

(Rev 19:11-16) And I saw heaven opened [like the seal], and behold a white [symbol of innocence] horse [symbol of great power]; and he [Jesus Christ] that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war [(inevitable) thermo-nuclear war]. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns [versus “a crown” Rev 6:2]; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture [Gk: garment, robe] dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God [Heb: 4:12]. And the armies [(plural)] which were in heaven followed him upon white horses [i.e., each soldier (angel) armed with the great power of Holiness] [1], clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword [versus “a bow” Rev 6:2], that with it he should smite [Gk: strike] the nations: and he shall rule them [through the resurrected servant saints of us as “kings and priests” Rev 1:6; 5:10] [2] with a rod of iron [i.e., discerning between the “grapes” (us) and the “wild grapes” (them) Isa 5:2]: and he treadeth the winepress [for we are the grapes of His field] of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture [Gk: garment, robe] and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS

1.    (John 14:12) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me [follows me], the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. 

2.    (Rev 20:6) Blessed [Gk: happy] and holy [Gk: (an awful thing); sacred (pure, blameless, consecrated): saint] is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign [as kings] with him a thousand years [i.e., during the Millennium]

 

DO YOU REALLY WANT A BLESSING FROM GOD??

THEN

FEAR GOD AND OBEY HIM

 

(Prov 9:10) The fear [Heb: fear; moral reverence: X dreadful, X exceedingly, fear (-fulness)] of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding

 

(Jude 1:21-23) Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. 

 
Amen
