SEEING WITHIN GILGAMESH

 Time for a little reflection of our viewpoints of ourselves. Using Nimrod's vison of himself as the hero, Gilgamesh might help, and to aid in your self-appraisal consider the image of Gilgamesh below. Study it for quite some time and maybe you can see more than what is pictured for it is just a shadow of the real thing: (This comes from one chapter of my book about The Arks of Tubal-Cain.

Gilgamesh

PICTURES AND OTHER IMAGES

 

The picture in figure #9 is someone’s image of Gilgamesh/Nimrod cut in stone. It may not be a true representation, but like Plato’s shadows on the cave wall, it represents what chained prisoners imagined the real things to be.

In Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave,” images of men passing behind them were imagined by the shadows cast by light onto the walls within a dark cave. The shadows were as real to them as the bodies behind them. For them, the shadows were a fragment of the real thing. For some, the shadows were the real thing! They saw tall shadows of men behind them and perhaps thought the men were tall. What we picture in our minds can become real, as with some of the chained men. Was the picture of Gilgamesh him, or was it the shadow he cast in the minds of his admirers?

To understand the truth, we must look at the cave from which Noah emerged and what he saw.

 

Terah with all his household were then the first of those that served gods of wood and stone. And Terah had twelve gods of large size, made of wood and stone, after the twelve months of the year, and he served each one monthly, and every month Terah would bring his meat offering and drink offering to his gods; thus did Terah all the days. And all that generation were wicked in the sight of the Lord, and they thus made every man his god, but they forsook the Lord who had created them. And there was not a man found in those days in the whole earth, who knew the Lord (for they served each man his own God) except Noah and his household, and all those who were under his counsel knew the Lord in those days. And Abram the son of Terah was waxing great in those days in the house of Noah, and no man knew it, and the Lord was with him. (Jasher 9:7-11)

 

Everyone except Abram was wicked; so was Terah and so was Nimrod. Each man would have wanted a god as each imagined him to be. As it turned out Nimrod was king and Terah his magistrate who made idols to look like each person wanted their god to look.

Therefore, Nimrod would have commissioned Terah to make an image of God like Nimrod saw him. Of course, the king saw his god, meaning that he would look like God was perceived in his own mind’s eye.

That Terah was the magistrate of the king would mean that Terah would make sure that people saw Nimrod as majestic. The image that Terah, or someone else, cut was majestic Nimrod — Gilgamesh. That was what the engraver was commissioned to do. A frail, short God would not be acceptable, so the cutter imagined what Nimrod thought of himself, as any artist might do for a regal person.

Think now of King Charles XIV of France in the painting:

 

 

 

The king looked like a weak, effeminate man, but the artist made him look like a proud male peacock.

Surely, the stone cutter who cut the picture of Gilgamesh used the same deceptive way to perceive our Hero, Gilgamesh.

Was Gilgamesh a true heroic great hunter or is that what he wanted us to believe when he commissioned Terah or whoever it might have been?

Think also of Napoleon who would come later; a short Corsican man who became king of France and Emperor of the Napoleonic Empire. In his most famous picture, Napoleon’s hand was placed on his bosom perhaps to indicate that his was the House of Napoleon that would rule as it turned out to be after so many republics failed. That one gesture made Napoleon and much as the  look and red shoes made the “Sun King,” Charles the XIV.

One gesture or prop can define who a person thinks he is. Look at Gilgamesh; that lion in his bosom was his vision of himself — “Gilgamesh the Hero King and God” — tamer of the lions and as Luciferin as can be!

Now for a moment, jump back to the beginning of the beginning. God commissioned Adam to be like Himself, “in His Image” and the hand of God — Jesus — formed Adam in His own divine image.

Because glorious Adam had dominion over the other animals, his substance was God’s substance as Adam “crumbled” from the Image of God for which “dominion” implies. If God was phantom and He was, He was real as well. So, Adam was the spittin’ image of God, both in spirit and reality.

In like manner, Nimrod would have commissioned Terah to make an image of himself that Nimrod imagined God to look like. Perhaps Terah made for Nimrod the image of Gilgamesh on stone and called him “Hero.”

When I told my wife that Gilgamesh was twelve to eighteen feet tall, she expressed shock, asking, “Was he really that tall?”

That was a great question; Was Gilgamesh really that tall?

Gilgamesh had met giants or at least had seen them in his mind’s eye. They were the going thing before the flood, and perhaps Noah told Nimrod about the giants of old, or even giants that still existed he had seen in his travels.

Figure #9 is how Gilgamesh imagined himself as a god and king. He could have been a tall, tall man, or he could have been a short man with the little man Napoleonic complex.

Terah was the magistrate of King Nimrod. Magistrate means to administer; to minister to his majesty. Many artists have been killed for failing to provide a picture of what was in their kings’ minds. It would not matter if Nimrod would really be small and humble; it was Terah’s job to create a king and a god from whatever real image he looked upon. With that said, the graphic of Gilgamesh would not have been the real Nimrod, but “The Hero” Gilgamesh, and Nimrod’s goal was to make a name for himself. That much he did!

In other words, what is pictured is not the real thing but how Nimrod imagined himself as “The Great Hunter.” My wife was onto something!

Think now Facetune ^®. Perhaps Terah face-tuned Nimrod and the picture of Gilgamesh is Nimrod with his face and body-tuned. In that regard, the picture should have been called “Vanity” because that is what face-tuning does; it takes a humble picture and converts it to vanity.

Nimrod saw himself as a giant. Maybe he was and maybe he was not. However, he surely saw himself as 2/3’s god. The third part of him was added. Terah, if he was the artist, added majesty to the picture of Nimrod. The lion is the symbol of majesty, so a lion it was, and to make Nimrod more majestic, the lion must appear much smaller to suggest the might of the mighty hunter.

The resultant picture could have been the mental image of how Nimrod saw himself. In Jungian psychology, mental pictures of yourself are three: the ego, the id, and the superego.

The id is the corporate needs of the mental state of a person. Nimrod may have needed to think of himself as a giant to be a great hunter, and that means the hunted would look small compared to himself.

The ego is the “I” of the individual; how he sees himself in his mind’s eye. He would need to be “The Hero” and to him the “Hero” he would be. He wanted to be seen as the man that killed God… I did it!

The superego was not Jung’s term but the “Over-I” and as such, the Over-I adjudicates the “I.”

The stone image would represent his actual ego (he could do nothing), the id would be what he wanted to be seen as (The Hero), and the over-I what he really was (just a small, small person that wanted to look bigger than life.)

Gilgamesh would have been two-thirds there: his ego and id, but an Over-I was missing.

Now for some elementary stuff. The Hebrew letter bet can represent the image of stone for the flesh, and the Hero the Power of thought, represented by the letter aleph. What was missing? If he was lacking 1/3 of his whole, then the Over-I was missing. He was missing the Hebrew letter gimmel. It is characterized by the footprint of a camel, not the camel itself, as if something was there but is no longer seen.

A camel in his bosom would be humorous, and he would indeed be the idiot.

The footprint of a camel would be almost unnoticeable.

Gilgamesh wanted the animal to be noticed, so he picked a royal animal. Not by coincidence, it was not the Lion of Judah of which we thought, but the devouring, roaring lion of which we must be vigilant (1 Pet 5:8).

Gilgamesh would not be holding the coming Messiah but the already come Lucifer, who appears as the “Beast” (Rev 13:4). He had tamed the raging Beast, and they had become one god in three images. He was made whole by the addition of the Beast to the picture. It appears that Terah made Nimrod fully a god. Then Nimrod named that one god “Gilgamesh”— the “Hero.”

The story of Nimrod would me amiss without Abram. He broke all his father’s idols. Apparently, he thought he did, but eventually it showed up on October 15, 2000. Abram missed one, but that is a minor thing. Perhaps God hid it for this age.

One must study The Book of Jasher to get the full impact of Abram’s transformation to “Abraham.” He withstood the ovens of Nimrod in Ur whereas eleven of his compatriots did not.

Perhaps even Nimrod recognized that Abram was more like Noah and God than himself. Perhaps, that was when he turned away from God to Lucifer. He was holding “Satan” in his bosom. That would have been derogatory, even blasphemous, to God.

Because of the faith of Abraham in the fire, something changed about him; it was his seed that would be the offspring and chosen people of God (Deut 14:2) and that would be passed down to his progeny.

Abram, now identified as “Abraham” would be the “father” of us peculiar people, but he was merely a proxy until the second coming of Christ when any person might be God’s chosen and peculiar people (1 Pet 2:9). That is not to say that Abraham is God but was the “vav” of the Hebrew aleph-bet that was the “placeholder” until the coming Messiah arrived.

Abram crossed over the river into the Garden of the Lord (Gen 13:10) from the land of Ur in Shinar. Because he had defeated Nimrod, or Gilgamesh, it was Abraham that would act for God until God manifested His true self. Abraham had defeated the false God and King Gilgamesh — the man whom Abram’s father had engraved “Hero.” No pictures of Abraham exist but his inward image is in all who are Christians.

The Beast was engraved into the bosom of Gilgamesh. However, Lazarus was in Abraham’s bosom until Jesus was glorified. The death and resurrection glorified Jesus (John 7:39), and then Abraham became no more than a proxy, like Gilgamesh who was the proxy for Lucifer.

Why was Gilgamesh portrayed as tall. That was his mental picture of himself. He was the first Jungian. Why else? Are there more reasons? His missing element finally arrived… Lucifer joined the picture. Gilgamesh sought the way to eternal life, and that was through himself. He had reached his peak experience by the end of the Epic, being by then complete. It was himself that was the One God. With Satan in him, Gilgamesh arrived at a conclusion: I AM Lucifer. Who is Lucifer? The being with a vision of the future, and I repeat it:

You (Lucifer) have said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north, I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” (Isa 14:13-14)

When Nimrod finally made a name for himself — “Gilgamesh” — he thought he had achieved that. He was indeed holding a raging lion that he apparently had tamed for the picture he wanted to portray, but acting the part paints a poor picture. Indeed, Gilgamesh was not a picture of the true God.

Why waste so much time on The Epic of Gilgamesh. It is another version of the same story from a more distant location. There are many more stories like that epic because there were survivors all over the world.

Because so many have the same stories narrated differently each one validates that the flood was real and many people, by their own devices, escaped the waters to higher ground.

Gilgamesh thought himself 1/3 human and 2/3 gods. If that was true, then he was partly from Seth through the man, Noah, and the other two parts Anunnaki.

FROM THE EPIC OF GILGAMESH

 An excerpt from my book in progress about The Arks of Tubal-Cain coming to you shortly:

A comparison of the gods of the desert to the gods of the islands: Uruk to Hawaii.

Recall Eve’s (Hey – Waw – Hey)  her “land of Nod.”

Then apply Isaiah’s vision; “The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island.” In other words, the gods of Shinar in Mesopotamia would be the gods of some island, perhaps Hawaii. And who were the gods of ancient Hawaii? Kane with Satan in him was to them, the creator god, and his cohorts were several: 

Kāne:

Considered the highest of the four major gods, Kāne was associated with creation, the sky, forests, and wild foods.

Kū:

The god of war, Kū was also associated with politics and male pursuits. Human sacrifices were sometimes made to him.

Lono:

Associated with peace, fertility, agriculture, and rainfall, Lono was also linked to music and learning.

Kanaloa:

The god of the ocean and the underworld, Kanaloa was also seen as a complementary force to Kāne.

Pele:

The famous goddess of fire and volcanoes, Pele was known for her fiery temper and her control over volcanic activity.

Laka:

Goddess of the hula, Laka was also associated with beauty, love, and fertility.

ʻAumakua:

These were ancestral spirits or family gods who acted as guardians and protectors for their descendants. 

Note that among the consorts of Kane were Pele — the goddess with a fiery temper. That would be Lilith, also known as Naamah.

Lono is linked to music, and Genun of the plains of Mt. Hermon was the inventor of musical instruments. He is the muse of musicians and of Lono, the god of the ancient Hawaiians.

Ku seems to correlate well with Nimrod himself. Nimrod is the proto-god of the Greeks and Romans, so why not the Hawaiians? Nimrod is the same as the Greek god, Orion. He seems to be the same as Ku as well.

 Ku, in Hawaiian means “standing upright” and is associated with strength. Ku would have been the Hawaiian version of Nimrod/ Gilgamesh.

Laka as the goddess of the Hula — “Wandering” — would emulate Eve herself, considering that she is the Hawaiian goddess of love and fertility. (Lilith seems to be the force, or libido, in Eve and Naamah.)

Kanaloa is interesting as a god. He is the force of Kane. What force was in Cain? He was of the Wicked One (1 John 3:12). The force in Cain was the letter qof in Qayin — the Sun itself, and what is Hawaii noted for? Its Sun which is always shining is indeed the very place of the rising Sun!

The point herein is that somehow the seed and religion of the Kenites made it to distant places. That is the evidence that there were more inventions: arks and perhaps even animal vehicles — that took Cain’s seed as far as the far, far east.

The Epic of Gilgamesh, by narrating a different version of the flood, robs God of His glory. It is not that the Hebrews stole Gilgamesh’s version, but that Gilgamesh took the same version and applied it to his own set of gods.

“The Great Hunter” is still killing the notion of God to this day because that ancient document survives all the rest. The point to the Epic is that it was their demon gods that saved mankind from the flood waters, and that is their version of events, and the truth.

When the end comes, as in the days of Noah, what should we expect? That some will be saved, but the god of those who remain will get the credit.

What happens when Christians are raptured? They are raised from the dead. Who will get the glory for that? Some modern-day “Nimrod” and the ark to Paradise will be by his own design.

Picture credit: pininterest.

CHURCH: A MENTAL STATE

 This is a rough version (unedited) from my latest book in progress about the Church. It is about "states" because the true Church is not a building but the mental state of groups of like-minded people, all focused on God, whether it be God now, then, or later.

STATES

 

To become Christians, sinners must be born again, not of the flesh, but of the Spirit. How that is operationalized is a mystery, but it is not an emotional event, and neither is it by carnal knowledge. Nobody… sorry my Roman Catholic friends… are born into the universal Church.

Of course, “universal” means inside or outside, or anywhere. Church is wherever people assemble in the Presence of God, whether the “Presence” is any one of the three states of God. To make a Church, the congregants must be in homeostasis with the Godhead regardless of which state you find Him. Some found Yahweh, others found Jesus, and now the acceptable Presence is the Holy Ghost. It must be remembered that the Holy Ghost is as much God as Jesus because either is the Presence and Power of Yahweh in different states.

“States” are important in both physics and theology. The Holy Trinity are the Three States of the one same God. 

In physics, a state of matter or phase of matter is one of the I distinct forms in which matter can exist. Four states of matter are observable in everyday life: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. (Wikipedia 2025) 

First off states refer to matter, commonly called “material.” Just because something is not obvious does not mean that it is not material, as even atomic particles that are solid material, but only appear solid and in a state that cannot be seen with the naked eye.

That Adam and Eve were originally naked and were not ashamed indicates that they were glorious beings in the manner of Yahweh.

Now for laughs, let’s compare Adam to the atom. First off, Adam was meant to be  closed as the highest form of creature that would remain who he is. The “Serpent” broke down Adam to a lower state that could be seen. Adam was always a “firm” thing as the Hebrew word for “tree” indicates. Albeit he was in a firm state the “nakedness” was that his soul was outstanding or stood out. Glorious Adam, perhaps, was his soul in a transparent shell, or husk, that was perfect.

Sin made glorious Adam imperfect within, and if my insight is true, his close encounter with Lucifer stained his “husk” and it was changed. In scientific terms, Adam’s kind were mutated just as elements mutate by losing electrons in their shells.

Original Adam would be dynamic as God is dynamic. Just as electrons are both dynamic and firm at the same time, so may have been the glorious flesh of Adam.

Think of a bicycle wheel for a moment. [1] At rest, if a person sticks his fingers into the spokes, the spokes are penetrable. Some of us have learned from experience that a spinning wheel is dynamic as our fingers hurt when we poke at the wheel at slower speeds. Ouch!

However, when dynamic enough, the spokes almost disappear. Go even faster and as they totally disappear, they seem to become one hard surface. That is true of the atom. They are invisible because of their dynamics and the dynamics make them seem like a hard surface.

Since Yahweh was invisible, He stopped when time began. If there was no time in the creation as some now say, and I concur, the entire cosmos was dynamic, going from nothing to everything in just one moment — the twinkling of the eye” as some call it.

Everything existed before the Creation, but it was unseen. What happened? Just like the bicycle wheel, God provided “spin” (dynamics) and out came firm things. The state of things changed in an instant. God always existed — “I AM THAT I AM” — but He changed states. As Paul wrote the Romans, “For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead” (Rom 1:20). As such, God is understood by created things. Albeit “Father God” (Yahweh) is like the Hebrew letter Yod that is in everything, God was both infinite and real at the same time.

God’s ”First State” was Virtue or Goodness. That was revealed by Jesus; when He lost virtue, the Greek word is “dynamos.” Virtue, or goodness, is positive and desired dynamics.

Virtue cannot be seen, yet it can be material as well. Material things can be either seen or measured. That the woman with the issue of the blood was “made whole” indicates dynamics. She got her “groove” back and returned to a normal state (Mat 9; Mark 5; Luke 8).

The woman ceased bleeding. Her state when from bleeding to not bleeding. Her dynamics changed and the Power of Jesus, albeit invisible, could be measured. All dynamics can be measured, so even though unseen, dynamic is a “state” as well.

God’s first state was dynamic. It is known that Yahweh is real because the “world” was once not there and now it is. The “world” is the universe (material) but before it was Power, Power is energy working. God was creating and the Power was El-Shaday (Almighty God).

Thus, Yahweh is the “First State” of God and like Paul indicated, although invisible He was real and the evidence of that are the things that He made.

Jesus made the woman whole. His dynamic proved that Yahweh was in Him because the state of the woman changed. The crucifixion was essentially revealing the truth to mankind. God revealed all His three States as He was crucified. Crucify means to hold still, ostensibly by driving stakes into a material object. Jesus was the object of God.

The crucifixion was scientific in search of Pilate’s desire for truth. For instance in quantum mechanics, matter always exists in one form of the other. To see its true form, it must be stopped.

As John wrote about Jesus, He always existed but was in a different state. In the process of time (Gen 4:3) God changed states. His First State was as Yahweh and his Identity was Power, signified by “El” or the Hebrew letter aleph. Lucifer, also unseen, had power as well but only God is good, as Jesus reminded His followers (Mark 10:18), thus implying that He is the same Yahweh that created all things.

After His dynamics (creating) God rested (Gen 2:2). Like quantum power, the unseen Almighty God, came to rest and revealed Himself. He was the same God but in a different state.

While in the Garden, the man and woman, so said Eve, had bright eyes and could see all states of God all at the same time; that is “homeostasis” —  steadiness between the states. What was is and remains so during changes of states. God is said to be “immutable,” always being the same, albeit in different but equal states: (1) “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever” (Heb 13:8), and (2) “I am the Lord, I change not…” (Mal 3:6).

God never changes (mutates); He was, is, and always will be. That too is the First Law of Thermodynamics, “energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transformed from one form to another” (Wikipedia 2025).

“Form” therein is the different states: solid, liquid, gas, or plasma. Plasma in physics is an ionized state. The Light of God could be the ionized state, or “plasma” of God — the so-called “waters” that God divided from itself (Gen 1:6). Could it be that since “the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters” (Gen 1:2) that the First State of God was Light or Divine Plasma?

Don’t worry about physics and theology being in congruence because God is the Cause of the Physics. Physics is the dynamics and statics of things and God did both!

God was never a “Liquid” even though the term waters is translated into the English. It could as well have been called “piss” (Strong 2006). Piss implies a breakdown of anything. Piss may very well represent divine “Plasma” wherein God broke down His own essence to reveal solid substances.

Let’s say that the First State called “Yahweh” is plasmatic. Plasmas give off radiation, or light at different frequencies, most of which cannot be seen without special “eyes.” Adam’s kind surely had those eyes and other kinds did not. They could see God because they were made in the Image of God and since God is all-knowing, glorious them would have been as well.

The Second State of God is Him walking in the cool of the day (Gen 3:8) as the dusk was coming upon the Garden, although no longer bright-eyed, they still had a dim view of Yahweh. Because God was walking and not seen, His state had changed. He was the same God but plasma, or light, in the shape of a man walking. Note that the figure that was walking remained God, but His form had changed. His state went from everywhere to there at the same time. That was Jesus walking, but only His Ghost was revealed. Now time had been initiated for the mankind, at the beginning of time (time zero; at rest), the State of God had changed but He was the same God that they could see because of the sound He made walking. Again, the objects moving were the evidence of some Holy Thing moving them.

During the course of human events, God revealed Himself differently at different times. Each time, God stopped long enough to show Himself in different states. 

Atop the Ark of the Covenant, God often showed His plasmatic state. For Jacob , God revealed Himself alternately in all three states during the course of the day. Missed by about everyone is that translated “wrestled” Jacob entangled himself with a “vapor” (Strong 2006). As the light changed, Jacob was able to see God in a different light each time. Study that selection carefully (Gen 32).

At the “birth” of Jesus, He was not born naturally. God overshadowed Him with Light. A shadow is still light but less intense light. In the darkness of the womb, God changed states; He went from a plasmatic state to a solid state. Jesus was not “born” but was God manifesting Himself as a man. John the Baptist said about The Word, “I knew Him not: but that He should be made manifest to Israel”  (John 1:14).

“The Word” is hidden in the first verse of the Bible. [2] The Word is in the Greek, “alpha and omega” (Rev 22:13). In the Hebrew that is the aleph and the tav.  The Word first appears but is unspoken in Genesis 1:1, “et” — the letters aleph and tav. Et has no direct meaning in the Hebrew but to Christians Et is Jesus (John 1:1-14). Aleph-tav is not pronounced as a word but as letters only. It may sound like “ate” but it is no Hebrew Word. Hebrews fail to recognize The Word, albeit it has always been there since the beginning.

The Word is not just a word but an alphabet. It is the written sounds in consonants that describes all things. It is the “plasma” that gives light as Truth because the truth is real objective things. The Word does shed Light (Truth) does it not? The alphabet reveals the truth with objects. The Word is the First State of gaining knowledge and it was only good knowledge before deception was encountered. Hence lies are philosophically “darkness” because they are not truth. Mankind was mutated and now we live more in a dense fog than either light or darkness. Everything for the depraved is always shades of gray wherein there is both darkness and light. That is now the state of the mutant creatures that we still call “mankind.”

Now, study the crucifixion from the beginning to the ending. What was it all about? God was revealing all three of His states in one “Godhead” (Steadiness).  

Pilate asked, “What is truth? and Jesus said nothing. God revealed the truth to him; that God is always the same but people see Him differently. Since Jesus is the most obvious to the human eye, before we can see Yahweh or the Holy Ghost, we must recognize Jesus.

How can we see what cannot be seen? By the things God has done. You must see God as the Creator and Savior and to recognize His “face” as the countenance of Jesus. Now His countenance is enough with the Body of the Christ not gone, but just beyond our sense of vision.

Christians seem to look the same but they should be able to be revealed by their state. Doing what Jesus did is the Christian State. Of course, our body remains with us, but inwardly, the countenance should be much different than before.

The change of states for Christians is our countenance: mostly how we think. Christ is in us, not in our bodies, but in our hearts, souls, minds, and strenghts (or dynamics). Jesus indicated the new state of Christians: 

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment” (Mark 12:30) 

The “heart” seems to be the only object listed by Jesus, but neither is it an object. It is the countenance, or inner person. Conversion, or rebirth, is basically a change in mindset. Persuasion is how to be born again; hence rebirth is not born a second time but a renewal of the mind of God that was once in our kind.

That we were meant to have dominion over the other kinds (Gen 1:26) was that we were “crumbles” off the Image of God and His Thoughts were to be our thoughts.

Hence, becoming a Christian is a change of state as well — a change in mental state. We are the same persons but are to think like God would think. Jesus must be exemplified in His new creatures. We may look the same but inside we become Jews inwardly (Rom 2:29). 

Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock. (1 Pet 5:1-3) 

The “flock” is the assembly of God’s people — the “Church.” We must not, but should be willing to be different, than the non-flock: no filthy acting or speaking, but a change of mind and to be examples (like Christ) to others. Note that a change of mind is a change of heart, or countenance improvement. The modern church now has about the same countenance as before because so many Christians are Christians in name only. We say “Christians” and we call our calling “Church” but it seems so much like the world.

My friend Phil was in the mafia when he was young. He became a Christian when he had a change of heart. Eventually he encountered his old mafia family and he said, “They were friendlier than the people at church.”  That is so often true. How many friends do you have in your church organization compared to those who are obvious sinners. I am ashamed to say that few in my church organization reveal friendship at all; they are merely a group of acquaintances.

Are you a changed person? If not, will you fit into the true Church building? Is your form and function so different than God intended, that you  just don’t fit in?

Well, for the condition the Church is in today, maybe it is not a good thing to fit in.

Church is a state of being. It is of the mind. The mind should go where God is present. Can you sense the Presence of the Lord where you go? If God is with you, where you are, He will be. We are not to go to church but go unto the world. That need not be to physically go there but carry The Word as you go unto the world. That is “The Great Commission” and The Word is like waters that can flood the Earth, but not with you just sitting there acting the good Christian like Judas was wont to do.

IMPRISONED IN THE WORLD

A short blurb from my new book about the True Church:

ON PATRIOTISM TO JESUS

They (Adam and Eve) had been free range animals, going nearly anywhere they wanted to do except one tree that they were not to trespass to go there.

After being expatriated, they were sent to a gigantic prison that God had made for that purpose. They were sent into the world just as England sent their criminals to Australia as aliens from England.

Just as Australia was a huge prison to the English criminals, the world still is a mega-prison wherein the “warden” lord holds us captive. Do you not realize that you are in a prison that God made before time? Look at its environment (Gen 3): 

1.      They hid themselves from the Presence of God like criminals hiding from the law.

2.      They were disciplined for breaking the rules.

3.      They blamed each other as prisoners are wont to do. They both became the “victims.” Don’t blame us!

4.      Where they were going, they would have enmity (dissension).

5.      There would be no truth outside the Garden walls.

6.      There will be sorrow.

7.      The husband would load her down with rules.

8.      Hard work — like a chain gang — would be assigned to the man.

9.      Death would ensue, implying that time would begin in the world.

10.  Eve would be the “mother-father” like in the word “Moab” previously.

11.  They would require clothes in prison… a coat of many colors.

12.  So, you think God’s rule was hard, in your prison, other prisoners will rule over you. 

Do you not understand, we are not free but are in a prison where bars cannot be seen as if there is an electrified fence keeping us in like the beasts that we are.

Church is sanctuary from the world. It is like a prison chapel where we can go for solace away from our strict but unseen “warden” the Devil.

What do you think Jesus meant when He educated a group of Jews who lived by the Law: 

If you continue in My Word, then are you My disciples indeed, and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

They answered him, “We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest You, ‘You shall be made free?’” (John 8:31-33) 

Like the Jews before, Christians fail to understand that the Law does not pertain to us because we are set free from the things of the world. We are like trustees in a prison system. We are free to go wherever we please, so long as we remain patriotic to the Overseer, Jesus.

BLASPHEMING THE HOLY GHOST

Many wonder what blaspheming the Holy Ghost is all about. This is gory, but the agony of Christ was certainly no picnic.

By cursing the Holy Ghost (blaspheming), God is offended because His agony would have been for nothing — in vain.

God was torn asunder instead of you, particle by particle, DNA by DNA, and chromosome by chromosome. His flesh was not only torn, but as He gave up the Ghost, his Identity was ripped from His flesh as the Holy Ghost freed itself from the nuclei of all His chromosomes. The agony of Christ was that agonizing and many still trivialize it by taking the Name of God in vain.

His agony started even before the crucifixion as the Holy Ghost began the mission; remembering that “He (Yahweh) shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever” (John 14:16). The Power of God began to rip the Holy Ghost from the flesh of Jesus even before the soldier pierced His side. The Holy Ghost did not leave Jesus just from His belly but through every pore of His divine flesh, thus removing the divine Image from Him.

Next, I will write of the blood that Jesus sweated. What was happening to Him?

(To be continued in my next book about the True Church.)

THE CHURCH: GOD'S REAL ESTATE

 For those who want to get a head start on my latest book about the True Church which we are to copy, herein is a rough draft of what I have begun (Not shown yet are all the pictures):

THE TRUE CHURCH

 

Even very few Christians go to “Church” in which the capital “C” represents the Holy Church. Few even go to “church” with a small “c”.

The Church is anywhere followers are in the Presence of God. Of course, God is present everywhere, but few sense Him. “The Church is the collective body of all Christian believers” (Wikipedia 2025). Another definition is “a body or organization of religious believers such as the whole body of Christians.” (Merriam-Webster 2025).

The consensus seems to be that those who believe in “Christ” is the “Church.” Believe what? Believe in whom? Belief for what purposes? So, “You believe that there is one God; you do well; the devils also believe, and tremble” (Jas 2:19). James, the brother of Jesus wrote that. Suffice it to say that James knew Jesus and came to believe that Jesus is that “One God.”

Belief, therefore, is that there is one true God and that Jesus is that One True God manifested to mankind. Speaking of Jesus, John the Baptist wrote, “I knew Him not: but that He should be made manifest to Israel” John 1:31).

John learned Jesus, to wit:

I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon Him, and I knew Him not: but He that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, “Upon whom you shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, the same is He which baptizes with the Holy Ghost.” (John 1:32-33)

The Baptist did not know Jesus but was provided with a test of authenticity by God. The Christ is the one on which the Holy Spirit from God descends and remains on Him. The Baptist recognized that Jesus is God, as God manifested that to him. So, to be a Christian, a person must believe that Jesus is the only one who was baptized with the Spirit of God.

Thus, the first step to Christianity is believe in the Creation and that an invisible God had the Power to do that and did that. Do you believe that all things were created or in evolution as the science theorizes? [1]

If you have read the footnote, and you should, the Baptist knew the test: That the flesh of Jesus was made, and John saw that the made Being was the always-Present God. Jesus was manifested as God. God put flesh on Himself so that those who did not believe might believe in Him. God used the science to proof His own Existence. John came to know Jesus by what he had seen.

If you are a Christian, then you too must believe that; believe that Jesus is God revealed. So what, you might think. Jesus is proof that there is a God because He performed miracles as proof. Jesus overcame the science, or better said, Jesus revealed more science than scientists.

So, what is “science”?

“Knowledge or such a system of knowledge concerned with the physical world and its phenomena” (ibid). Science makes no profession of knowing anything about things that are not objective. With that said, science has not studied any other realm than the cosmos. Science is the study of things that can be either seen or measured. If things are not in this realm,, according to science, it is only mythology. Black holes, for instance, could not be seen until recently. They were theories, or myths. Now, with the James Watt Space Telescope, black holes have been seen. What once was myth is not truth.

The myth was based on what they could see. Because matter drifted toward a dark hole, the conclusion was that there must be a black hole. They assumed that because of the motion of matter. What was myth is now truth.

They may not know it, but the myths of science are proven by the same passage that Paul wrote to the Romans: “The invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made.” The same goes for all of the Creation. Jesus is God revealed; and the Holy Thing seen is evidence of the Holy Thing not seen.

That God entered and remained with Jesus is imperative. A Christian must understand that God and Jesus are not dual gods but that Jesus is God in the flesh.

The crucifixion proved what the Baptist said: The same Holy Spirit in bodily shape (Luke 3:22) that came on Jesus left Him at the crucifixion. (John 19:3) as “He gave up the Ghost.” The Godhead was separated at the crucifixion, and the Resurrection, the Godhead was re-assembled as the Holy Ghost made Jesus whole again. “Wholeness” is completeness. Jesus got His Spirit back!

Pontius Pilate asked of Jesus, “What is truth?” Not answering, Jesus revealed the truth, and as He died the Holy Spirit in bodily shape left Him. Jesus was the evidence of the unseen God, and some at the crucifixion saw that: The centurion that pierced Him said, “Truly this was the Son of God.”  (Mat 27:54). And because He still lives in another realm which science chooses to be ignorant of, that God is alive and well is not investigated.

You might be confused because the claim is that Jesus is God. Here, the proof indicated the “Son of God.” Think not that God gave birth to Jesus. Mary did that. She delivered God into the world. However, “Son” therein is better translated “Image.” Like the first Adam, the “last Adam” Jesus had within Him the life-giving Spirit of God (1 Cor 15:45), called the “Father.”

A Christian must be born again of the Spirit of God (John 3:7) just as the flesh of God received the Spirit of God in the same format.

Remembering that the Church is a body of believers; each must believe in a Creator God and that Jesus is the Person of that God, just as John wrote, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1).

The Word is a sound. Sounds cannot be seen but they do reveal that where there is a sound, their must be an object. That “Sound” was the “Voice” walking in the cool of the evening toward Adam and Eve. They could not see the Savior coming, but they knew by the sound of His Voice that it was Jesus. [2]

Now, you should understand that God created, and that Jesus is the Person of God. However, even the demons believe that and tremble, if you recall James 2:19 previously quoted.

Demons are not Christians but are believers. Demons understood that Jesus is the Person of God, even though He had flesh like ours.

The centurion believed that as well. It was his gift from God as the blood and  water probably wetted him. He believed, but did he have faith? There is a difference!

The “Church” is an exclusive organization. It is older than time. “Church” (no longer will it be in quotations) is not the building but the “House” of God.

Jesus is the “House” of God, Tent of Meeting, or Tree of Life. The Church pre-existed mankind. The Garden of Eden was the Church of God and under the canopy of the Tree of Life was the Tabernacle of God. There were no walls surrounding the Tree of Life but all were free to enter in. Not one person (out of two that existed) went to Church to be in the Presence of God. Think how sad that might have been for God! Rather, Adam and his woman chose the house of pleasure nearby but very distant from God.

God would have ministered to their needs, but mankind chose Lucifer as their “lord” (Gen 4:1) to minister to them.

Church is a place of marriage, not merely coupling, but having Holy Matrimony in the Presence of God. The forbidden tree was the false church of coupling where it appears that the woman committed adultery. Married to Adam, she adored Lucifer, and the outcome was degeneration since Cain was of the Wicked One (1 John 3:12).

Sin was not allowed in the Church with the fellowship of God, so the false church was created with the original sin. Anybody could go into that false church but how they would come out, is a different story. Adam was betrayed and the woman became “Eve,” a new kind of promiscuous animal that Adam named another kind (Gen 3:20) as she would be the mother of all living. He new “lord” was Lucifer who was serpentine within, and she became a “beast” like her new lord.

That new church was carnality, professing both divine knowledge and evil to deceive the congregants. That “church” remains alive and well today alongside the true Church.

God had forewarned Adam that if they ate of the forbidden tree; they would die. The Deceiver said, “You shall not surely die” (Gen 3:4).

Adam and the woman had been safe before going there. Then, they trespassed against God, going onto the forbidden property on which Lucifer had squatted. They thought that it was God’s sanctuary for Him alone, but they were deceived. Its “master” was a false teacher; the first thing they learned there is that God had lied…. You will not die.

Note that Adam and the woman had not physically died but that they, once dominate (Gen 1:26), became like the beasts. The Beast that ministered there was like a roaring lion within. That deception remains in the false church until this day as Peter warns, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the Devil, as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Pet 5:8). Peter was speaking to the true Church: “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy has begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead” (1 Pet 1:3).

Adam’s kind went to the forbidden tree to eat, but in a sense, they were eaten alive when they were deceived. What was the message they heard? “You will not die,” implying that they were secure even when around evil. The “Serpent” was being pompous as God was diminished. They had aware gone to the wrong church to have communion with God. There they encountered the first false teaching.

The point is that there have been two churches since the beginning of time. Because Eve is the mother of all living, her progeny are most likely to go to some ordinary, even pleasurable church.

Now for some deep thinking. Pleasure is of the flesh. The flesh senses pleasure, not only with the five obvious senses, but with feelings of safety because flesh is their house and the “House of Eve.” A “house” is not always a building but a genetic inclination. Since the two Adam’s wandered to the wrong tree, they wandered into the wrong church, not where God was present, but Lucifer who presented the forbidden church as the true Church and made God the liar.

That is getting even more profound in this century since church has become a place where anything goes: homosexuality, abortion (murder), deviations of all sorts, lavish entertainment, and a whole litany of things that God did not have in the Original True Church.

Now for some clarification: I am not a member of the false “Church of Christ” but the real Church of Christ with Jesus at its Head. My Church has no walls, no visible teacher, no commandments; but only a communion with Christ Jesus who is always there but remains unseen.

With that said, Jesus was going to the First Church of the Garden of Eden: After resting on the Sabbath, God went for a short walk, Adam and the woman, “heard the Voice of the Lord God walking in the Garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the Garden” (Gen 3:8).

God was on the way to Church to be with them. He wasn’t running late; they went early to eat a little before the Great Teacher arrived. They were there for the “donuts” and “coffee,” not for the Bread of Life. Lucifer served them his food, and they ate. [3]

This is not to imply that all modern churches are evil but that we must be sober and vigilant what they teach by testing all things and hanging onto what is good (1 Thes 5:1).

Your preacher will lie! Not that he does so willingly but that Lucifer is in us all since original is genetic sins. In other words, like Eve (our mother) we are not great judges of truth and to be honest, human beings are very easily deceived. Like Lucifer with Eve, all a teacher needs to do is seem glorious all the while within demonic instructions are their genetics.

I personally believe that as a Christian you are in more danger than you ever were as a Luciferin. Why else would a Christian need the whole armor of God “to stand against the wiles of the Devil?” (Ephes 6:11). My point is that you shall die if you are away from God unless you remain sober. You are not eternally secure until you are in the Presence of God a the end (Mat 24:13) It does not matter which to which church building you go, but with whom your heart lies when the death angel comes.

The True Church is not even here but in Paradise. All the churches of the world are Satan’s buildings.

I do agree with modern “Churches of Christ” in three respects: (1) Wrong music is a mostly a disturbance, (2) denominationalism is destructive of which theirs is the worst kind, and (3) you as a Christian are vulnerable to the wiles of the Devil. Their denominationalism comes from their faith in water baptism, thus making Poseidon their “lord.”

As worse is the Calvinistic teaching of eternal security. Indeed, after you are in Paradise there you will be eternally secure, but while on planet Earth, you are continually under attack. Only if Christians wear the full armor of God are they safe but never are they secure with beasts all about.

Beasts are wolves in sheep’s clothing (Mat 6:5). Oftentimes “men of the cloth” are just that. They don’t mean to be, but they too have been misled by seminaries, family ties to certain doctrines, and outright lying at times so their version of the truth may prevail.

Sometimes your church is the most unsafe place you may be because while you think you are in the sanctuary of God all the while, it may be the “Synagogue of Satan” (Rev 2:9).

No, you are not even secure in your church building. There are many false teachings under the roofs of buildings built because of denominationalism. Admittedly, even I am denominational and like everyone else, must test my doctrines for adherence to scripture.

Denominations promote the ideas of some former Christian. Calvinism is the most prominent at the moment, and while Arminianism is dying, Calvinism is resurrected.

Every denomination is full of wrong doctrine. There is no perfect Church other than the Church in Paradise where creatures of all makes honor God and in His Presence.

John saw all sorts of creatures having Church in his vision: 

After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, “Come up hither, and I will show you things which must be hereafter,” and immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and One sat on the throne, and He that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald, and round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God, and before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind.

And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle, and the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come,” and when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to Him that sat on the throne, who lives for ever and ever, the four and twenty elders fall down before Him that sat on the throne, and worship Him that lives for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure they are and were created” (Rev 22:1-11)

Note that Church is not a building, but some type of floor on which to enter there is a door, or gate of some sorts, giving access to God — The Tree of Life. The door leads to another realm where there are many creatures among the men. Church is in Paradise and until then, Church here is a façade of the True Church, and some are better than others.

Note that in the True Church, everything is about God and nothing about us other than our kind are only there. The Glory is given to God, and even the angels do that. Angels are real but they are not God. They too give God the Glory!

How many modern churches are like that? We should have wings of eagles and spread our arms to objectify the cross.

Where are the lists of rituals and the stones of “must do’s”? The focus is only God and with that all other things are out of mind with no need to worry about finances, whose wearing what, who is important and who is not, and who is between you and God to distract you. Satan’s demons are not there, albeit they are always busy in church buildings watching them split and then split again.

The best churches today do their best to perform to their idea of God but come far short of glorifying God. The reward for those of the True Church is the hope of eternal life in Heaven, but the modern church is where even the best of the best must be paid. How many apostles were paid? None. How much was Jesus paid? Nothing. Jesus said to His disciples, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man has not where to lay his head” (Mat 8:20).

The point here is that the Church is not the building, the denomination, the leader, the mode of presentation, but wherever the invisible Presence of the Lord God may be. He can be in a building, but God always said that He does not need a house; “The most High dwells not in temples made with hands” Acts 7:48); He dwells in a “House” made by Himself. That “House” is Jesus. Note that house infers many things: buildings, tents, husks, flesh, and even genetics. Jesus is the “House of God” because God lives within His holy flesh.

In Christ is in the “House of God.”

“If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature” (2 Cor 5:17). Jesus is the House of God in the same manner that Caesar’s are of “The House of Caesar.” It is a genetic lineage; that soon included about every evil dictator that took that name. In Christ is in The House of God. How to be of that genetic House? “Marvel not; you must be born again” (John 3:7).

To be in God’s House requires an admission slip. You must be born of the Spirit (John 3:6). To be in Christ — the House of God — requires baptism not of water but the Spirit of God; literally born again is engendered from above.

The House of God was one at time a “Tent” called “Jesus.” Jesus always existed (John 1:1-14), people could just not see Him. Jesus was manifested (John 1:31). He has been with us always (Emanuel) and still is. God revealed the flesh of Jesus that was always there. Those “in Christ” know that Jesus is there without even seeing Him. He is till “God With Us” in Spirit and Flesh that is so glorious that it cannot be seen.

I like to think that Adam had glorious flesh as well before sin; not organic, but of clay (silicates and aluminates), and that sin made Adam organic as well as Eve. Carbon does age and as such after sin mankind began to age and die, fulfilling the edict of God.

Adam had Christ in him! The Word is Christ, and in the beginning, Adam was made in that Image (Gen 1:27). That “Image” from the Hebrew was literally a “Shadow” of God, or figuratively, a “Phantom.” Then God put the inner Image in a shell made of “adam” (red clay or ground). The person Adam was the “House of God” and of the genetics of Yahweh.

In typical manner, God is omnipresent, so Adam had dominion, or he was literally “crumbled” from the Image of God just as a drop of water in a manner crumbles from the sea and is of the same constituency.

Adam had Christ in him and as such, he was the first Adam and the Spirit that crumbled was the “last Adam” from which the first Adam crumbled (1 Cor 15:45). Both Jesus and the first man were both Adamic because they both had Christ in them, “Christ” being the “ointment” of God, as the word, “Messiah” (English “Christ”) implies.

Now consider the word “Messiah.” In the Hebrew it is spelled:

 מָשִׁיחַ: mem – shin – yod – tau (tav). The verb would be the letter mem – the dynamics of the blood and the letter shin the object — the Godhead or the three substances of God in One (The Yod). The letter tau is the covenant, or mark, of God as the subject. Tau is represented by the cross, about which Jesus said, “It is finished” (John 19:30). All the letters point toward the cross (tau). The “ointment” which Messiah indicates would be the very flow of the genetics of the ”Father” Yod, or Yahweh. The mem is the flow of both blood and water (i.e., genetics).

About Jesus John wrote, “This is He that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, because the Spirit is truth” (1 John 5:6). Jesus, as The Messiah, came by the mem, representing both blood and water, not just one or the other.

Blood has three components, cells, plasma (water), and life (the quickening spirit of Jesus). No wonder John wrote, “There are three that bear witness in earth: the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one” (1 John 5:8). The mem of the Messiah carried the Godhead through time over the generations of mankind. However, as the “Son of God,” the Progenitor (genetic “Father”) of Jesus was Yahweh Himself. God was in Jesus, the Christ. He was the ointment that could heal the nations (Rev 22:2). And the tav was the application of the ointment to all who believe. What was finished at the crucifixion? The Ointment of God so that all could be healed, or made whole, with each person who believes sharing the Ointment of the Messiah. Like with the first Adam crumbled to make the woman, the last Adam (Jesus) crumbled as well. Ointment is applied by application. Keeping it in a vessel preserves the ointment, but unless it is applied, the ointment is of no use!

So quit looking at Jesus as just a man. Jesus was the ointment for the healing of the nations. He carried the genes of Father God in a “Cup” so to speak, literally His “vessel.”

“In Christ” is anointed by Jesus. As such Jesus rubs off onto sinful people to heal their animalistic tendencies. Paul wrote, “Fulfil you my joy, that you be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind” (Phil 2:2).

Paul had it; and he called it “joy.” A better translation is “contentment.” Paul had his rebirth had become like-minded with Christ. In effect, his words, were as much The Word because Paul was speaking the Mind of Christ.

Being of “one accord,” is of one mind. Our minds should be like the Mind of Christ Jesus. God does not get into our fleshes but our inner man — our nature. Rebirth is a new creature in Christ, “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Cor 5:17).

Our fleshes belong to Lucifer since like Cain, we too are of the Wicked One (1 John 3:12). The genetics of a newborn baby are of the Devil, Lucifer, or Satan (John 8:44) “and the lusts of your father you will do.”  We are like the “old creature” at birth. The original sin was passed down to all those living via Eve, “the mother of all living” (Gen 3:20), and obviously through your mitochondrial DNA — in your X-chromosome. Both men and women have that encoded in their blood, and to be a Christian, Christ makes a sinner whole again with His quickening Spirit as He had done with Adam in the beginning.

The first step in building a Church is laying the foundation on solid ground. As such Jesus is the “Rock of Salvation” (Isa 20:16) and the “Cornerstone” (Psalm 118:22). Yahweh is the solid ground and Jesus the “Stone” that was used to datum all things. In a manner, the Stone crumbled to build the Church with each stone a “lively stone” quickened (made alive) by Jesus.

Peter (“Pebbles”) wrote about that, “You also, as ‘lively stones,’ are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ (The ‘Rock’)” (1 Pet 2:5). Implied therein that the quickening Spirit in Jesus crumbles off to make lively stones, and hence, Christians become “new creatures” like Adam in the beginning.

Like Adam was “born,” so sinners are born again (John 3:7) as new Adams in Christ. Each Christian carries within them a little bit of God; enough to fill them.

Adam was “born” differently than anyone else. Somehow the Spirit of God entered, not his nostrils, but the mind of Adam, and Adam began to think like God. Like God who has a divine Will, Adam had a human will as well. Original sin was when Satan got into the mind of both new creatures, and hence the Wicked One (The Devil) is the genetic “Father” of all. He is in our minds, in the nature of mankind. Jesus came to fix that, and the Messiah finished it at the Holy Cross as his blood and water anointed mankind as is written, “One of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side and forthwith came there out blood and water” (John 19:34). The letter mem crumbled from the Messiah onto the skull of Adam. [4]

Remembering that the ground is also “Adam” and that the dust of Adam was buried beneath Calvary, think of the purpose of that: Adam had sinned. His sin was closed, as indicated by the closure of the letter tav. The mem flowed into the crevice of the newly split ground and Adam’s bones would have received the mem of the Messiah, like before, through his cranium.

Perhaps the genes of mankind are not changed with rebirth. Genetics until recently were sacrosanct. Jesus would have overcome the world, leaving defective genes intact, but changing the nature of sinful men and women.

Jesus gets into us, not by genetics per se, but fixing our iniquitous natures. As an example, Paul persuaded the Gentiles that he encountered to become Christians. He also persuaded them to continue to be in Christ (Acts 13:43). That he preached to Gentiles is significant; for they were not Jewish. However, those Gentiles in Christ were changed. Jews were God’s chosen and peculiar people (Deut 14:2) and it was in their genetics as the Abrahamic Covenant demonstrated. Something happened with the Gentiles of very different genetics; Paul speaking to Gentile Romans wrote, “He is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God” (Rom 2:29). The bllod of the Gentiles were not altered at all, but their natures, Paul wrote, could be like genuine Jews, who had Yod in them (Yahweh).

Rebirth was altering their iniquitous natures, like the Jews should have been, Paul wrote, “You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light” (1 Pet 2:9).

“Light” is truth. The Divine Light shined onto their cranium — both the vessel and the shield of the mind, and God got through to many Gentiles. They became new creatures, not by genetics, but when their minds were entangled with the Mind of God. Hence, rebirth is indeed miraculous for the mind is harder now to change than even our genetics which can be purchased in a $60 kit.

Rebirth, therefore, is not a re-gendering of the flesh as a infusion of new thoughts. Before Christ appeared, God said, “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the Lord” (Isa 55:8). Hence, rebirth is a new way of thinking. That implies that since scripture is the written Word, or Thoughts of God, then The Word must be studied and lived, for in “The Word,” if you recall, is the “quickening Spirit.”  Therefore, rebirth is not an emotional event but cognitive.

Pilate asked Jesus “What is truth?” Jesus revealed the Truth not by Word but deed. The crucifixion divided (the letter shin) the Godhead into three parts. Pilate so the head of the Godhead, Jesus, divided into the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Several saw that miracle. The “Shadow” of Jesus moved independently of the object, proving that Jesus had overcome the world, and modern science.

The repentant thief, the centurion, Pilate, and his wife were persuaded to become Christians. Jesus did not get into the genetics in their fleshes, but through their thick skulls. Before, they had refused to believe, but as the centurion said, “Truly this was the Son of God” (Mat 27:54); was and still is!

The genes of the centurion were symbolically changed as he was baptized in both the water and the blood of Jesus — the mem in the Messiah.

The centurion saw the separation as the Holy Ghost left Jesus, then he was baptized, so to speak. It was not the blood and water that changed him, but the Spirit of God got into his mind. He concluded that Jesus was who he claimed to be — God in the flesh of a man. Rebirth is you coming to believe that same thing, but first you must conclude that God is now unseen but real, and that as God who made the whole man, Adam, He can make you whole again and heal your deficient, and even depraved nature.

The crucifixion was having Church. The Holy Cross was the altar on which Yahweh made the perfect, unblemished sacrifice of His own flesh. He gave up the “Bet” in the alpeh-bet in a manner of speech, and the Holy Triad was torn asunder (the aleph – bet – gimmel) to prove that He is God, Yod. Yes, the Hebrew aleph-bet’s “ABC’s” represent the Holy Trinity, having a triad nature. “The Word” came apart for a few days and then re-assembled again after the Truth was revealed — that Jesus is not just a Son, but God (Yahweh) within Him.

The Church was all the people who believed. Those who did not believe were not the Church, but the crucifiers. Jesus welcomed them all, but of all who came, the first Christian Church was the few people who believed that Jesus is God in the flesh. Note that all were welcome guests, knowing not what they were doing (Luke 23:34) but as such, did not know the Thoughts nor proof of Jesus, and were never part of the Church.

So many even today, go to church but going does not make the Church. They may go to the building or even the congregation but not to the Presence of God in Jesus.

Note that Jesus always existed (John 1:1-14). The problem was that sin blinded the two Adams to Him. Before, they were naked, or innocent, and could see Jesus in bodily form. The Books of Adam and Eve verify that. Jesus was not changed with sin; they were. Jesus went a walking and all they could hear Him, Jesus remained unseen. They were puzzled why they once could see Jesus but now could not. Their once bright natures had been overshadowed by sin, and now it takes a bright nature induced by Yahweh for them to see Yeshua in Yahweh. To be truthful, the ”J” in Jesus conceals it because the “Y” or Yod reveals Yahweh.

If the crucifixion was having Church, where was the building? It was somewhat distant because the true “House of God” was built on the Cross (the body of Jesus) and the Cross was the foundation of Christianity. The Church was not built on Peter, but the True Stones of believers whose foundation was less obvious, “For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ” (! Cor 3:11).  Paul explained that further: 

Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God; and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; in whom all the building fitly framed together grows unto an holy temple in the Lord” (Ephes 2:19-21) 

The foundation was laid upon the prophets and even the apostles. However, Jesus was always the Corner Stone. Jesus existed during Old Testament times before the foundation of the world, “Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you” (1 Pet 1:20). Jesus always existed, even before time ever began, and as Yahweh, all things were built upon Him. He was the “Phantom” that crumbled to make Adam, and as new creatures, Jesus crumbles for us. In a sense, the crucifixion was the crumbling of Jesus into His three elements to show that He is Yahweh.

Note that the House of God — the True Church — is of unordinary materials. People make the Church, and they must be measured from Christ the Corner Stone. Cornerstones are how buildings are built; all things within a building are measured to that One Stone that was laid first. If measured from stones in series, errors result and things do not fit. All things are measured from Jesus. He is the Way to a perfect Church building.

Jesus was laid first… in a tomb, and now, it is the turn of the so-called “lively stones.” They must take up their crosses and follow Jesus (Mat 16:24), but our crucifixion is easier and less painful. He has already suffered for us, so all that remains is for our hearts, or inner natures, be crucified. Recalling Romans 2:29 from earlier, “He is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart.”

The ”heart” is the nature of man. It is how we think, feel, evaluate, act, and so forth. It is the animal nature within all natural born beings. King David called that “iniquity” in which we were shaped (Psalm 51:5). We are all born depraved like both the Beast and the beasts.

That inward person must be castrated to tame us. The scalpel is quick: It is “the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Ephes 6:17). Just as a bull is relieved of its inclinations to make a steer, God expects Christians to be docile “steers” with our old natures gone. Rather than our genetics castrated, it is our minds, afterward follwing the Will of God just as steers follow the will of their masters.

Is the nature of the Beast still in you? If so, then your mind has not been properly castrated, and the Word was dull to you. You must sharpen the blade by studying more deeply The Word because it is the figurative Presence of Jesus. Like Jesus, it is always with us in our minds if we do not gloss over it in vain.

All the so-called “Lively Stones” must fit to make a Church made up of various hewn stones. Of course, the stones of the Church are not hewn by human hands but are slowly and methodically crafted by The Word of Jesus trimming the rough edges. 

On a personal note, my wife and I visited several times an independent church denomination. Soon, without us even mentioning our beliefs, the preacher told a friend there, “The Herrins don’t fit in here.” We never attended again. Indeed, we “lively stones” failed to fit in. Soon, the preacher and the secretary fit quite well, of you get the meaning. We certainly did not fit in!

Because even Christians are held accountable for lively sins, we did not fit in. We believe that people who live in the flesh do not fit in with those who fit the Spirit.

Of course, we two are imperfect stones in the True Church but The Word swiftly and continually hews on us until we nearly fit the True Church, then He fixes the misfit with His living mortar; Him rubbing in the “ointment” until we fit perfectly by the time we die.

The Devil as such, throws sand in the “ointment” of God so that we do not fit. The Devil takes lively stones and takes the life from them, thus making the stones not fit for a living Church.

So, no, we do not fit it an apostate church, so we went to a right-doctrinal Church. 

The True Church is genetic, “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” (Rom 8:14). “Sons,” it is repeated, are who that is in you as Paul wrote about Jesus in, “Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God” (Rom 3:25). Past sins are not those that have been done, but sins that exist from the beginning of time. In other words, sins in which all mankind are born, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Rom 3:23).

Everybody are born inglorious bastard sons of the Devil (John 8:44). “Sons” indicate that sin is in the flesh of mankind. Likewise, “Son of God” indicates that the soul, not the flesh, belong to God and a complete soul is filled with the Spirit of God. “In Christ.” Is Christ in you, meaning that the Messiah is in you. If you recall from earlier, that means that the ointment from the Person of God has mellowed you and took the rebellion away. The “ointment” from the Messiah is the mem (blood and water) dispersed at the crucifixion for the healing of all the ethnicities, Jew and Gentile. Hence everybody are candidates for the Church. However, “For many are called, but few are chosen” (Mat 22:14).

You may go the Church but few belong to it. Ask almost anyone, Are you a Christian?” the answer is “I go to (whatever) church.” Going to church does not make you a Christian anymore than going to a ball game gives you ability.

In a sense, when God calls, the Church comes to you, wherever you are. Where you sit or stand at this moment is Church if God is Present with you.

Few understand how God can be wherever anyone might be. God has no vessel that can contain Him. He is the Yod that is beyond all others in Power, and His Power is the infinitely greater than the ox for which the letter aleph stands.

The prefix “omni’ means “all” or “universally.” Hence, omnipresent is always present everywhere. Human minds cannot comprehend that, but God is always with you, as the name Immanuel indicates. Not only that but God is omniscient — “all-knowing.” What about your thoughts? He knows what you are thinking right now. You need to believe that for it is now the science of quantum mechanics — called  “universal quantum entanglement.” God is omni-anything with everybody since the beginning of time because mankind was made in His Image, and each of us are a “particle” of God as implied by the words, “dominion” and “sons.”

Again, for emphasis it is repeated, God said, “Let us make man in our Image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion (crumble, thus mankind as “particles of God”) over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the Earth” (Gen 1:26). The word, “dominion” implies mankind as “sons of God” and as such mankind were the particles of the Church and God the Invisible House that is now called “Church.”

In other words, when God was creating, He was building His Church, not of bricks or stones, but with “trees” for Jesus is the Tree of Life around which the Church was built out in the open Garden before time, as “eastward” means.

The Garden of Eden remains hidden to this day. Why? because it lies in another realm from which mankind was excused because of sin, to wit: So, God, “Drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the Way of The Tree of Life” (Gen 3:24).

The Way is Jesus and His Way is the Church. The Church that God built still exists but to see it requires special genes; indeed to see the Church you must be born again (John 3:7).

What is coming short of the glory of God entail? Let’s turn to sacred literature at least for commentary: 

Then Adam cried and said, "O God, when we lived in the garden, and our hearts were lifted up, we saw the angels that sang praises in heaven, but now we can't see like we used to; no, when we entered the cave, all creation became hidden from us."

Then God the Lord said to Adam, "When you were under subjection to Me, you had a bright nature within you, and for that reason could you see things far away. But after your transgression your bright nature was withdrawn from you; and it was not left to you to see things far away, but only near at hand; after the ability of the flesh; for it is brutish."

When Adam and Eve had heard these words from God, they went their way; praising and worshipping Him with a sorrowful heart. And God ceased to commune with them. (1 A & E 8:1-4) 

Glorification is with that bright nature, and with “bright eyes” the Voice in the Garden of Eden could be seen as Jesus walking. The blind man had bright eyes; as Jesus approached and touched him, the blind was healed and said, “I see men as trees walking” (Mark 8:24) and then he could see Jesus clearly as he was made whole.

“The Tree of Life” was Jesus walking in the Garden in the cool of the day, calling on Adam and Eve, not to judge them but to provide grace because of their grievous trespasses where they were told not to go. Jesus had Church with them wherever they were because he adorned them with life again: “Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them” (Gen 3:21). The Lord God literally covered all their persons with ‘or in the Hebrew (ayin-vav-resh). ‘Or means “shimmering,” often translated as “gold.” In other words, the “skin” was the Light of God. Their new flesh from the Wicked One was enlightened by the Lord God. In a sense, they wore the Holy Spirit of God over their sinful flesh. The Garment of Adam was the “Comforter” who would abide with Adam and his kind forever (John 14:6).

Before the two were cast out of “Church” to abide in the world, the Lord God overshadowed them to keep them safe from any further wiles of the Devil. In other words, wherever they went, they were in the Presence of God. Where was the Church located? Anywhere Adam and Eve chose to go, the Lord God went with them. This is the first case of the traveling universal Church.

Then Cain was born of the Wicked One, God called him but he did not come (Gen 4:1). Therefore, Cain was cast out of the universal Church to the land of Nod to wander all over the world. [5] Nod was merely wandering. The sons of Cain still wander to this day, and hence the blood of Cain is in everyone, and for natural born people, they too are of the Wicked One in the manner of Cain (John 8:44). Indeed, the world raised Cain as the saying goes.

The world is the location of the universal anti-Church, and its head is the Antichrist. Do not expect many Christlike figures in the world church because of the allure of fame and profit.

Churches (little “c”) are like money and come in denominations. Consider a money for a moment. Wealth is measured in denominations: ones, tens, thousands, millions, billions, etc. So do church denominations. So is the world church. Each denomination has different values than the next. For so-called “Churches of Christ” their value is in baptism with water.

For Regular Baptists it is much the same, but so is security without obedience (Antinomianism).

For Catholics, their value in genetics; once born a Roman Catolic, always a Roman Catholic.

For Episcopalians it is the strict government and its rituals. Hopefully, you get the point that each denomination have their versions of the truth and that includes then modern-day false “Church of Christ.”

“Catholic” is not a bad word. It strictly means “universal,” making it the omni-Church with invisibility. “Catholic” should merely mean that God is with you wherever you go. Now, it is a worldwide religion headed by the Romish Pope. The Pope is “Papa” whose gens are Roman Catholics.

Jesus commanded, “Call no man your father upon the earth: for One is your Father, which is in heaven” (Mat 23:9). To call anyone father other than your parent implies that it is him that is God, the “Father.” Note that the Pope is stationed in Rome whereas Father God is the universal One.

However, just as those who killed Jesus failed to know what they were doing, so goes most denominations. Christians should never judge anyone; that is for Jesus to do. The word “denominations” makes it clear that everybody misunderstands doctrine in some manner, and even your denomination is no different. I often disagree with the tenants my own denomination as well as yours. We can judge which church is real, but the True Church are any person of any church body that has been born again.

Roman Catholics thought they were the chosen and peculiar people as discussed before, but some protested, and Protestantism was born. Then the Protestants formed many denominations each one with their own version of the Truth.

What is truth? That Jesus is who He claimed to be, Who would that be? God manifested so we no longer need bright eyes because change means bright natures like Christ’s.

The repentant thief was nailed to the cross. What did he do to be with Jesus in Paradise as soon as that same day? (Luke 23:43). Believe that although the Body of God was also nailed firmly, that “The Angel of God” — the “Holy Ghost” would take him there immediately, for the day was coming to a conclusion. The realm of heaven is not out there, but right here, remaining unseen. (Michio Kaku, the astrophysicist just made that same conclusion). Paradise is not a place and neither is Church. They both are where God is Present. Where is that? Wherever you come to come to Him, He is there.

Then why go to a church building? Truly, you will not likely here the truth, but a version or perversion of the truth. It should be your hope that the truth will be found there, but usually it is dissension that you shall find. Jesus gave a warning: “Think not that I AM come to send peace on Earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword” (Mat 10:34). Religion divides churches and causes dissension. After the Church was created, the first thing that happened was dissension between Paul and Barnabas. Paul went universal, and Barnabas protested; and so it goes.

Dissension implies disagreement among at least two parties, and so it was with Paul and Barnabas; the Church was split, then along came Simon Magus who seems to have been Paul’s thorn in the flesh; the messenger of Satan to buffet him (2 Cor 12:7). Soon after Jesus was raised from the dead, Simon impersonated Him, and Simon became the Messiah of many. Christianity had split in two: the Church and the Antichurch (Gnosticism) divided about equally.

Remember the Church in the Garden of Eden? There were two: one was based on The Tree of Life and the other The Tree of Knowledge. Gnosticism (bearing secret knowledge) was revived when Jesus just disappeared from the face of the Earth; then Simon came to Israel and beyond, claiming to be the Christ.

So, you think the false church is dead? I seemed to lie dormant for generations, but it always exited alongside the True Church.

Gnosticism still lives in science. Science is the whole body of knowledge of both good and evil; however science ignores that there is an immeasurable, unseen world out there that can be seen by those with enlightened bright natures.

As the dark ages ended, philosophers created their own light with “The Age of Reason” and “The Enlightenment” wherein science lives but God was said to be “dead:” 

The first instance of this statement in Nietzsche's writings is in his 1882 The Gay Science, where it appears three times. The phrase also appears at the beginning of Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra. (Wikipedia 2025) 

No longer did enlightenment mean “born again” but reason, and soon “The God of Reason” (Libertas) became the goddess. In other words, Gnosticism remains alive and well to this day and our own reasoning is the omni potency of everyone.

The modern church is imbued with Gnosticism with many “Christians” sure that God enver existed and no thing was ever created. Indeed, the modern church is “The Synagogue of Satan” like the church in Smyrna (Rev 2:9), whose destiny is given, “The Devil shall cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried; and you shall have tribulation ten days: be faithful unto death, and I will give you a crown of life” (Rev 2:10).

Smyrna was one of the seven false churches of apostolic times. There some would make it to Heaven providing that they remain faithful until the end. To test their faithfulness, some will suffer tribulation. Those who endure to the end will receive crowns of life, as if a baby crowning from the womb. The people of Smyrna were not only Jews but multiple ethnicities, including Greeks.  Everyone is welcome in the True Church and to receive their crown of life. All will be tested and some will abandon God. So, the True Church are those who will be crowned at the end of life, and the remainder are mere interlopers (illegals).

The True Church is for the faithful alone, but their faith will be tested for the their entire lives. So, expect to see within the True Church posers. In other words, it is a Synagogue of Satan because followers of Satan invade the True Church just as Lucifer did in the beginning in the Garden of Eden. Note that Satan can be in the Church but he does not fit the part of the lively stone. Satan does not fit in, yet he is still there, not as a member of the Church, but as a destroyer.

Satan has always sought to diminish God. Knowing that God cannot be killed, the next best thing is to make the “bricks” fall down (Isa 9:10), and Christians are the lively stones that must fall. Satan goes to Church because he believes in God. So do many people. However, does Satan trust God? No; he undermines the Lord God. The same goes for the True Church; Satan can sneak in because of his cunning (Gen 3:1) and nobody is the wiser.

Satan’s demons may not be in the false church because those churches already belong to him. The demons seem to visit the True Church and if you don’t feel under attack, then perhaps your devotion to Christ may be in question. Conviction (of sin) is only a tool of Satan for God’s purposes. Conviction has two possible outcomes: admission or denial. God wants confession and Satan denial, and Satan uses human reasoning for those who sin to fail. When you know that you are wrong and still sin, that is rejection of the wisdom of God. God agonizes for you as Satan smiles.

Never think because you are part of the True Church that you are entirely safe. Indeed you will suffer tribulation as John revealed to the Church at Smyrna.

With that said, some in the Church may have it wrong, thinking that True Christians will be snatched away before they receive the crown of life. That pacifies the Christians, even those who feel comfortable sinning with impunity. You will be tested and of you are not, then question your faithfulness.

The Church is therefore not truly a sanctuary like the Garden Paradise of Eden, but a place of testing in the manner of glorious Adam and his woman.

The grace of God is although knowing you will fail, albeit you endeavor to do His divine Will just as with Adam and Eve who quickly realized their transgressions and were ashamed (Gen 2:25). Satan — the Serpent — tested the two but God convicted them with guilt. By grace, you can sin and still squeak in but never receive the royal crown of the priesthood (1 Pet 2:9).

Surely the Church has many that may squeak in but will trip many times before the end. Those going to “Church” in Paradise are judged where they are with God at the last breath. It is not what you once were but where you are now. Paul wrote about now is the time of salvation; for nobody to put it off, “knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed” (Rom 13:11). Salvation gets nearer every day until there are no more days — at the end of life.

No. Church people are not “saved.” Indeed, they will face tribulation, and some will fall away (Heb 6:6). However, we are preserved so long as the Garment of Adam’s kind is worn as a shield against the fiery darts of the wicked (Ephes 6:16).

Sinners are called to the True Church; whether they fit in or not is for Jesus to judge. Yes, Christians must fit in! Those who do the will of Satan will not fit in with those who do the Will of God, and neither should those who are Christians fit in with those of the Synagogue of Satan. People tend to go where they fit in, just be sure you are fitting into the right church. 

Church is not a formal event; it does not take a village, instruments, a preacher, a stage nor even a pulpit. Those things are church staged. Too many churches are staged nowadays just to call people to God. In other words, it is not God calling but things a calling. 

Jesus said, “If two of you shall agree on Earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of My Father which is in heaven for where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there am I in the midst of them.” (Mat 18:19-20) 

“Gathered together” in that passage is “synago” in the Greek. Church is a synagogue of God and the false church, the “Synagogue of Satan.” Great care must be taken with whom one is gathered together.

Synagogues did not exist during Old Testament times. The closest reference was “place of assembly” (Psalm 74:8). A place of assembly is not the Church per se but where the Hebrews gathered. The word, “synagogue” is concurrent with the word, “church” first mentioned by Jesus, when He said, “That you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” (Mat 16:18).

First off, the True Church is eternal, so it exists in eternity. The Church can be found in eternity (The Book of Revelation) as seven churches of Asia in seven different places. At the end of time, there are seven church “denominations,” each one worse than the other. The True Church in the end, will have evolved toward sin, or devolved.

The sequence of the cities are clockwise in Revelation and on the map they make a rough circle.

 

Figure 1;Seven Churches of Asia (edited; Wikipedia)

 

True, God’s “Clock” of church times are not a perfect circle but so chaos goes. With that said, it does seem that the seven churches of Asia represent church ages in order beginning with the church at Ephesus. Note from Revelation that none of the seven churches were perfect, but each church had a doctrine contrary to The Word of God.

Those seven churches could also be the composite of the degeneration of the One True Church. In other words, as the world degenerates, so will the True Church, so beware of the Church because evil will infiltrate it as it did in the beginning.

So, what is Church” When even a few are gathered in Jesus’s Name, there He will be. Of course, “Jesus” is the English version of His Name. Whether that will do or not is not what is said, but what is thought. The Name is “Yeshua” and none other. It is the shortened form of  the word, Yehoshua (aka “Joshua” in the English). The letters are of extreme importance, using the shortened version: 

His Name is Yod – shin – vav – ayin. The letter vav, or waw, is just a sound within the core letters. Trilateral consonants point toward the godhead (Trinitarian), especially since the letter shin is overtly three branches from one head. The Yod (sound of Ya) points toward the Most High God as primary, or proto. The ayin, characterized by the eye may symbolize hidden knowledge — The Mystery of God.

If the eye in ayin reveals something hidden, it is that God (Yod or Ya) was made manifest in Jesus. Jesus is Yahweh revealed to mankind. To reinforce that contention, the vav is characterized by a tent peg. Vav is used as both a sound and a connection. The Name, Yeshua, connects the Yahweh of the Old Testament to the manifestation of the Holy Godhead in the New Testament. The Name, Yeshua, specified the One True God in bodily form (Luke 3:22). Furthermore, the letter vav points toward a man, and in this case the Messiah. The shin in “Messiah” confirms that.

The Name “Jesus” (Yeshua) has very deep meaning — Jesus said about Himself, “I AM the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by Me” (John 14:6).

Recall the expulsion from the Garden of Eden? “He (Yahweh) drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the Garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the Way of The Tree of Life” (Gen 3:24).

The Tree of Life was in the midst of the Garden of Eden (Gen 2:9). The Tree of Life literally represents a firm thing. The Garden was a gathering of firm things in a paradisical environment. It was a glorious Garden undisturbed by weeds, thorns, pain, diseases and such, or even sexual activity (Gen 3). The Serpent disturbed things and the Garden would no longer be paradisical until the tares were removed. Adam and Eve were the “tares.” They were removed from the Presence of “The Holy Thing,” Jesus (Luke 1:35).

Remembering that Church is where two or three are gathered, then the midst of the Garden was Church.

“The Synagogue of Satan,” therefore, would have been the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Adam and Eve failed to detect the difference, so they erred greatly.

Lucifer presented “himself” as a bright angel, but inwardly, “it” was a beast of some sort; and “Serpent” fits as well as any; whereas the Image of God was phantomlike (selem in the Hebrew), the image of Lucifer was as a cunning nature (nahas) — The Beast.

Look what happened. God appeared as a “Firm Thing,” not specifically a tree. The Holy Firm Image of God (selem; the non-firm Thing) is Jesus. Jesus was there in the Garden just as John revealed (John 1:1-14). In fact, Jesus is the Proto-Firm Thing, as He was revealed first (more on that later).

That Jesus is the letter Bet to Yahweh’s aleph, since bet means “house,” then Jesus was the “House of God.” Much later that deduction was revealed when Jesus confirmed it by saying this about Himself:

Jesus answered and said unto them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” Then said the Jews, “Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?” But he spoke of the temple of his body. (John 2:19-21)

The Jews were concerned with God’s House. As it turned out the Temple was believed to be the House of God. However, Jesus clarified that by saying that His body was the House of God.

Now wonder, God had told King David that He would not need a house, referring to Solomon’s Temple. Jesus is the “House of God” and the True Church of Christians.  Christians gather together in Christ. Now you have some idea what the term “in Christ” means!

With that said, Jesus was in the midst of the Garden where two other firm things were to gather. The only three beings were to have Church, but Lucifer dissuaded Church from happening; his was the false church which Adam and his wife attended to. Not only was the Church formed before time, but Lucifer formed the false church in its stead. Both still exist to this day.  (I imagine them the following way):

 

Figure 2: Trees of the Garden (Co-Pilot)

 

If that picture had been in a plan view, there would be two trees casting great shadows from their canopies. The Garden of firm things, herein represented by trees moving, would be representative of the One True Church and the false church — The Synagogue of Satan — as “Satan” is Lucifer. The Adamic kind chose the false church with Satan cleverly hid in it in the angelic light of Lucifer. What is the M.O. of Lucifer? To impersonate “The Most High” (Isa 14:14). The Most High is the letter Yod, or Yahweh.

There would be nothing different between the two trees except color. (I have chosen green for life in one Tree and red for rage and death in the tree of death.)

Note that I asked Mr. AI to reveal the shadows of the trees. The shadows represent the invisible aspects of the man, woman, and God; as well as Lucifer. The shadows of the former was their glory, but the shadow of the latter were non-glory, falling far short of the Glory of God!

The “shadows” were made in phase one of the Creation, and the firmness in phase two. The Living Water of Yahweh was put into vessels for preservation. Satan mimicked that; his vessel was in a bright and shiny personage (Lucifer) to hide the ugliness of the shadow of the Wicked One.

As a Firm Thing of God, the Tree of Life surely represents the Body of God, or Jesus. Jesus is the Holy Firm Thing of God. As such, the forbidden tree surely represents the unholy firm thing of Lucifer — the Anti-Church with the Antichrist within it.

Just as the Church is two or three things gathered, or so it should have been in the Garden. However, a God-Impersonator — a trans-being — intervened. There were three things: (1) The male Adam, (2) the female Adam, and (3) the Person of God that should have had Church, but rather, they went to the Synagogue of Satan to learn and participate in beastly ways.

God had told them to “multiply” (Gen 1:22) but they were deceived.

 

CREATING THE GARDEN

 

The Garden of God is not just a small garden but the cosmos; what is called the “universe.” Since the word “catholic” means universal, or all inclusive. The Garden of God included everybody and with the animal kingdom was all-inclusive. The point is that the Graden of Eden was not just a local “Church” but the world-wide Church, so if there is a population beyond this one, they would be welcome given the terms of the Garden.

The word Eden means delightful and is spelled ayin – dahlet – nun.  In this case the ayin means revealed, dahlet a passageway or portal, and nun seed of all sorts. God would have made things from beyond this world, and the seed would have been to grow firm things. In other words, the catholic Church is the Garden of Ede; albeit the Roman and Orthodox Catholic Churches are places of worship in the West and East, respectively, As such, neither should be considered the True Catholic Church.

The Garden of Eden would have no boundaries. As usual, the cosmos is people-centered and wherever people are the universe is the celestial locus through which the celestial axis runs. Since planet Earth is the only known population, the centroid of this planet is the center of the universe.

The first people did not evolve from particles all over but a certain place. The imaginary human, Lucy, may have been from Africa but although an anthropoid, she was not human. Some report that her missing genes were replaced with human genes to make her seem more human.

Eve was not from the wilds of Africa nor somewhere beyond this planet. Eve was first in the Mind of God, to wit: 

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: according as He has chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love, having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will.  (Ephes 1:3-5) 

Note that God blessed us. Who did God bless? Paul was speaking to the people of Ephesus — the Church at Ephesus without regard to spirituality. All mankind were blessed — the “us.”

What is blessed? Barak in the Hebrew. He would “break down” (Strong 2006). Another word for breaking down is to “crumble.”

If you remember from earlier in this book, God providing “dominion” to mankind over the other kinds means “crumbled.” Us — mankind — were blessed and our image was a particle from the Image of God — a seed of God. Blessed is God making the seed of man of His essence before the foundation of the world.

Humans were planned and part of the plan all along was to provide a place for them to grow. The Garden was a garden in the sense that God planted particles of Himself with life within each seed.

Now let’s talk about the Seed of God. “God is Light and in Him is no darkness at all” (1 John 1:5). The first Light was from God. The first “saying,” or Word of God, was, “ Let there be light: and there was light” (Gen 1:3). The Word — Jesus — said that (John 1:1-14). Jesus always existed, and John confirmed that. Jesus is not another being and neither a created being. Jesus, as His Name means, is “God Revealed.” He first revealed Himself as Light then the :Firm Thing” along with the firmament (Gen 1:6-8).

The foundation of the world was very catholic in nature. The firmament was the “foundation of the world” to include heaven and earth. Together, they are the foundation of the world, and that was when God would have concepted His creatures, just as scripture says.

For all intents and purposes, God was creating a commune, according to Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.

Have you ever wondered why God created mankind? Jesus explained it well enough to satisfy some lawyer: 

When the Pharisees had heard that He had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together; then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked Him a question, tempting Him, and saying, “Master, which is the great commandment in the law?”

Jesus said unto him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment, and the second is like unto it, you shall love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. (Mat 22:34-40) 

Again, that refers not to just a select few but to all of us. God was creating a commune with Himself at the Head. He was creating a Commune, or Church for all His kind. Mankind was His kind since they were of God. Only mankind had an affinity for God because our forebears were partly god. Sin was when the so-called Serpent shared its image (nahas) and mankind became partly Lucifer as well.

The Serpent was not outwardly a snake but was one within, and because the Devil is the Father of all at birth, Lucifer is in all mankind when born. To correct that genetic deficiency “Marvel not; you must be born again” or re-engendered by God, accomplished by being reseeded to renew the Garden of God.

Rebirth is not regeneration but a reseeding of the Garden of God. It is renewing the Church on new ground. The “harvest” of the crop is when Jesus comes again to gather together (“synagogue”) to take them to “Church.” To be in the Presence of Yahweh.   

The harvest will be a beautiful thing to some, and not to others as the weeds and defective crop will be left behind: 

The Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first; then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (1 Thes 4:16-17) 

Those dead are the seeds as in cloning potatoes. This time it is cloning by God. He again will disperse His Divine Seed and plant the Garden where it was before — in heaven. Now the Garden of God has been renamed. It is Paradise, and neither does it have walls or bounds; it just is!

The Garden of God still exists in another realm just waiting to be replanted. “Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to The Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the city” (Rev 22:14).

At the end of the day, no longer is the Garden a bunch of trees and such but a great city.

John’s vision was Adam’s vision as he left the Garden. “He (God) placed at the east of the Garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep The Way of The Tree of Life” (Gen 3:24).

The Way seems to have a “gate” as a comparison between Genesis and Revelation reveals.

Again, God said “blessed;” He would use His Divine Seed again for them to grow in the City of God. Again, we must be born again to enter the gates of that great city.

John saw a gate on the way into the city in Paradise — New Jerusalem (Rev 21:2).

Jerusalem is the possession of God and the foundation of peace, New Jerusalem will be the foundation renewed — urban renewal from a dead old Garden. Jerusalem, not Babylon, is the material foundation of the Garden of Eden. The Garden (Hebrew gan) is spelled gimmel – closed nun. Gimmel implies the Holy Spirit of God and nun the Divine Seed of God. The Garden of Eden was “eastward,’ meaning that it was concepted and planted before time ever began. Mankind was the primary “plant” in the Garden of God with only man endowed (blessed) with the Seed of God.

Mankind were plants in the Garden of God: 

There went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground, and the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul; and the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed. (Gen 2:6-8) 

“Trees” as firm things included mankind as trees walking. The animal kingdom were plants in the Garden of God and they were to multiply and grow. God planted man lastly in His Garden. Gan indicates that the Seed of original man was God, and man was to be like God; as God is glorious, so man was to be glorious, and he was for a while for they were naked and not ashamed (Gen 2:25). They were not without clothing per se but their inward parts were transparent. They were without shame in their inward parts. With transparent flesh, sin would not be concealed.

Now back to the idea of a gate. A gate at the entrance implies a wall elsewhere.

There was a wall around the vast Garden but it was not material. The wall was the Law. Adam’s kind would be safe so long as they did not trespass onto God’s Real Estate.

God put a boundary around the Garden, to wit: 

The Lord God took the man, and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it, and the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the Garden you may freely eat, but of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, you shall not eat of it for in the day that you eat thereof you shalt die, die, die.” (Gen 2:15-17) 

“Surely die” is literally “die, die, die. Not only the flesh, but the soul, and communion with God. The Image of God would be removed. With sin came death, death, death. It was not all immediate but sometime in the future. At least while in the Garden, they were safe because there was sort of an “electric fence” around the Garden. The electricity was the unseen but real Power of God (“El” in the Hebrew; El Shadday.)

The command was the dynamic just as dogs were electrified collars to keep them from going where they should not go. The “fence” was the Law, and for the Law to be valid, the Authority must be honored. Eating of the forbidden tree breached both the Law and the hedge of safety about Adam’s kind.

Eating of the trees were with whom there would be communion, considering that the Garden was God having Church. Whereas, modern churches have walls to keep interlopers out and people safe until the hour is up, the Garden Church had walls of respect.

The True Church does not capture and contain the people within it but provides a sense of joy as people feel comfortable that God is there, providing safety for them. The walls of the True Church are based on the honor system: 

The Lord has avouched you this day to be His peculiar people, as He has promised you, and that you should keep all His commandments, and to make you high above all nations which He has made, in praise, and in name, and in honour; and that you may be an holy people unto the Lord your God, as He has spoken. (Deut 26:18-19) 

As God said in that passage, His peculiar people, whether Jew or Gentile as it turned out, has claimed you as His providing His commandments are kept out of honor for Him.

Note that commandment-keeping makes a prison, but honoring the Proprietor means wisdom and freedom. The Jews always saw the Law as a virtual prison whereas Christians should see them as a way to gain freedom… “You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32). The truth is that there is no real wall around either the Garden or the Church. What Satan saw as a hedge, perhaps of thorns, around Job was no more than many crosses for Job to bear.

Satan asked of God about the faith of Job, “Have you not made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he has on every side?” (Job 1:10).

Satan saw a hedge that could not be crossed. God has rebirthed Job and his “house.” The use of the “House of Job,” is not a house of walls but a genetic house like the royals have. Satan was inferring that Job was born again and that the Jobian Covenant included all his progeny. Strangely, Satan was correct; there was not bars or barbs around Job, but God had adopted him into His family. The “hedge” was both divine and could be passed down. Job was to multiply what God had seeded in him.

Hence, the Garden wall was virtual and of the Power of God, and so it is the Church. Church is made of people who God calls and those who stay when God calls. Those Church bells are not metal a ringing, but God beaconing. Nobody should force adult people to go to Church or make Church a prison-like atmosphere. Worship should always be free, and all should be able to bless Jesus with te4stimonies and prayer. Too many rules and such do a prison make, and by now rituals make church into prisons wherein the “warden” must be obeyed. Even Christians have become prisoners in their own church denominations, exercising exactly as the elders demand and the minister desires. Ask, yourselves, “Are you really free to glorify God, or are you a slave to ritual?”

Enough now about the Garden of Eden, but let’s summarize: 

·         It is God’s Real Estate, and we are a “squatters” who should honor Him.

·         Going where we should not go on God’s Estate is trespassing, or sinning.

·         The Garden is not only here, but in another realm where it still exists and is a sanctuary from the world until some from the world go there.

·         There is a fence around the Garden of God because there is a gate.

·         The “fence” is made of rules and regulations.It cannot be climbed by anybody and there is one way to enter of leave.

·         That the fence is like a hedge means it is not firm but some will try to enter in the hard way. They have no right to go there by their own works to pass through.

·         The fence is not to keep anyone out but to keep them safe within.

·         To be safe, the people must want in. God does not coerce.

·         It is a Garden because God planted it to grow firm things from His own Seed.

·         The Garden is not only trees but all firm things.

·         The firm things from the Seed of God are the most glorious.

·         The Tree of Life is the source of life to have and to keep it. The produce of it is free because of the grace of God.

·         All must go through the gate to live forever. It is guarded by heavenly, unseen creatures to keep the unworthy out.

·         The Name of God (Jesus) is the Way to life, and only by that Name can anyone pass through.

·         Hence, Jesus is the “door” or portal, to eternal life. Although all are welcome to enter, nobody else can operate the door and are unwarranted unless they hear Jesus knocking.

·         The Garden of God albeit it remains unseen is Real Estate that will be probated only to the sons of God — those with a particle of God’s Image within them.

·         As a particle, it is easy to pass through the hedge but fully grown Christians must pass through the Gate. As such children can easily get into the Garden, but adults must do so by the Name of Jesus.

Hopefully you get the point that the Garden of God is invisible, universal, and with walls that can not be passed through by our own efforts.

The Garden of Eden is a “picture” of the True Church, and even the Proto-Church that God deigned. The Church is a far cry from what God intended, but so were the seven churches of Asia. The ultimate Church exists only in Paradise, and when Jesus comes to reign here, the True Church, New Jerusalem, will follow Him (Rev 21:1). New Jerusalem is the restored foundation of peace, or the peaceful Church in the Presence of God by then here on Earth.

The Church will return to its foundation — its firm place now called “Earth” rather than “Eden.” The Presence of God will be again in the midst of His Garden (Jerusalem) with one thing missing: The Satanic Tree.

[1] My own belief is that the science seeing God in the Creation (Rom 1:20) “For the invisible things of Him (God) from the Creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal Power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse…”

[2] I personally believe that the Voice had glorious flesh that could not be seen because sin caused Adam and Eve become dull to things outside their realm because of sin; i.e., they had lost their glorious nature.

[3] Most likely it was a fig tree because they had been standing under a fig tree. If so, the fig tree may represent the false church and why Jesus withered the fig tree during His ministry. The Books of Adam and Eve also imply that the forbidden tree was a fig.
