JESUS
JESUS
Came specifically to "redeem the fallen race" of a "yet to be created humanity". Before the world was ever created God had an answer to the problem. Yet God knew that after they were created they would fall away into sin and would need to be brought back to God. His decision to do so was made "long before the world was" before the first day of creation even took place. The decision was made in a heavenly council that Michael would leave His high estate in Heaven and come to Earth and be born as a "human being" (a man) who would be given the name of JESUS which means Savior, and live the life necessary that is required by God the FATHER (in order) for any human being to be able to live with HIM in His presence in the Paradise of God.
Many in the church today who claim to know Jesus doesn't know very much about Him at all, they know of Him. But, Michael is God the second member of the GODHEAD who during the "council of peace" agreed with God the FATHER to "step up to the plate" for all you baseball fans, and come to Earth at the time agreed upon between them to become the Savior of the World bearing the name of Jesus who the FATHER anointed on the banks of the River Jordan the day He was Baptised by His cousin John.
The AGREEMENT made in the Council of Peace
(Between GOD the FATHER, MICHAEL, and the HOLY SPIRIT as the witness)
Mat 18:16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
(Long before the World was)
Zec 6:12,13 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD: Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
Now let's look at these two verses with spiritual eyes. The first question that should be asked is "who is the man?" (Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH) To discover this man's identity means we need to identify the BRANCH. For this we turn to the book of Isaiah. Isa 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots. Well we know that at least three men from Earth are in heaven. Enoch, Elijah, and Moses but this (man) couldn't be any of the three just mentioned. This (man) in the council of peace is none other than MICHAEL who was not a man at the time, but agreed in the council to become a (man) which means He would have to born of an Earthly woman when the time came for Him to make His appearance on Earth. Michael would become a man upon Earth and be called Jesus the "Only Begotten Son of God" through an Earthly human mother.
Luk 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. Luk 1:30-33 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David. And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. Luk 1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. Luk 1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
Prior to this time because the angel said "shalt call his name JESUS" implies that "that holy thing" within the womb of Mary was NOT called Jesus in heaven. He was named as JESUS at His conception (which means Savior) upon the Earth but was known in heaven as Michael. Look again now at Zech 6:12 the (man) would "grow up out of his place", once Michael the Second Member of the GODHEAD became a (man) upon Earth, He would "grow up out of his "rightful" place" which is in heaven upon the Earth and would be called the "Son of the Highest" and would be given the name of JESUS. Now we have identified the BRANCH in Zech 6:12 which is none other than Jesus Christ the (MAN) Im/man/u/EL or GOD with US! EL in the Hebrew means "GOD" i.e EL-OHIM, EL-SHADDAI, EL-ELOHIM etc. Therefore, IMMANUEL in Isaiah 7:14 could be written in modern English as "I'm man your GOD! Isa 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Michael volunteered in the "council of peace" to become the "God-Man" upon Earth as the Savior of the World to redeem back the fallen race before it was ever created. God had a PLAN in place to meet the need long before it was ever needed. One doesn't get this kind of knowledge unless it's given them, and God is to receive all the glory for what I'm sharing with you today, it's ALL of Him and He will give you the same if you ask Him. Jas 4:2(d) yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Jas 4:2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. We have identified the (man) called the BRANCH and His rightful place. Now we will look at His (goal) what He came to accomplish for the fallen race yet to be created future from the time of this heavenly council. Michael would become JESUS the (man) upon Earth to "he shall build the temple of the LORD", this doesn't mean a literal Temple even though Solomon did build a Temple for the Lord. Oh no, the phrase is speaking of the Temple of the Lord as those who would be redeemed through the mediatorial work of the Lord as their Great High Priest in the heavens AFTER He accomplished the redemption through His perfect life lived, His sacrifice of Himself for the lost race, and His resurrection back to life as a glorified "Human Being" which is the requirement of GOD (in order) to live with God as a created human being.
Every human being must be changed from what
they are now into a glorified state of being before they can ever stand before
the only HOLY, COMPLETELY PERFECT, RIGHTEOUS, and TRUE GOD. This is what Paul
meant when he stated: 1Co 15:51-54 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a
moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at
the last trump: for the trumpet
shall sound, and the dead shall be
raised incorruptible, and we shall
be changed. For this corruptible must
put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. NO HUMAN BEING HAS AN "IMMORTAL SOUL" THIS TO IS ANOTHER HERSEY TAUGHT IN THE MODERN CHURCHES. Gods word says: 1Ti 6:15,16 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. These verses stand alone as proof that "no one" receives a glorified human body or a reward of eternal life until the "last Trump" occurs. There's no such thing as going straight to heaven upon one's death to be with Jesus, they go down into the pit i.e. their graves and that is where they lay until the "Last Trump" sounds that bring the saints of God back to life who will be changed from mortal to immortal at that time and NOT before that time.
Michael came as JESUS in whom the FATHER anointed as the CHRIST which means anointed on the banks of the Jordan river to be the Savior of the World. It was Michael who created Adam and Eve, it was Michael who announced the "enmity" in Genesis 3:15, it was Michael who placed the curse upon Cain, it was Michael who brought the Flood, it was Michael (all the way) until the night in Bethlehem when He became a (man) called JESUS. This was determined in the "council of peace" before the world was, and fulfilled in God's own time when the God clock struck the appointed time when the angel's herald was proclaimed:Luk 2:10-14 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
NOTICE: The phrase "on earth peace goodwill toward men" this was NOT just a random statement by the angel, it was already decided in heavens council in the "council of peace" that was why it was called the "council of peace" that when the right time came God the FATHER in and through Michael would bring the sacrifice necessary to make "peace" between Heaven and Earth in the person of JESUS CHRIST. This "earthly peace goodwill toward men" was decided among the GODHEAD long before Genesis 1-2:3 ever occurred which is the account of the Creation of the World. The angel only stated that truth "of peace and GODS goodwill" already decided! JESUS is not only the Savior of the World, but He is also the MOST highest honored person note I said "person" in the Heavenly Paradise of GOD the FATHER (totally) EQUAL with the FATHER HIMSELF. Yes, He "Michael" had this honor BEFORE He came as "JESUS" to the Earth, but NOW He is even more highly honored as JESUS the SAVIOR of mankind by the host of heaven in that He gave His very own life to redeem the fallen race back to God.
This statement made by JESUS: Joh 17:5 And now, O Father, [as JESUS] glorify thou me [As MICHAEL] with thine own self with the glory which I had [As MICHAEL] with thee before the world was. JESUS was speaking here from a "dual perspective", He was speaking as BOTH Michael and the "Son of God." In Zech 6:13 we find the phrase "he shall bear the glory" and in the minds and hearts of the true servants of God, JESUS always deserves the "glory" for His unspeakable gift of redemption for humanity. He gets and deserves all the glory from His true servants that obey Him. Luk 6:46-48 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. JESUS is that ROCK! Act 5:32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
If you don't obey God do you then get the Holy Ghost? NO! It takes obedience to ALL Jesus has spoken (in order) to be given the Holy Ghost i.e. the Holy Spirit. Are today's Christians obeying this "commandment of Jesus?" Exo 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. NO they're NOT! How then can they call Him their "Lord?" How can they claim to be controlled by the Holy Ghost that is only given to them that "obey Him" when they willfully aren't obeying Him? What spirit is it then that controls them? Folks it's a false "holy spirit" and a false worship akin to paganism and is (actually) paganism. 2Co 11:13-15 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. The Temple of the Lord spoken of in Zech 6:13 "he shall build the temple of the LORD" has become the "habitation" or dwelling place of devils disguised as the Lord. Rev 18:1,2 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
This is the thanks JESUS gets from those who claim to know Him who willfully disobey Him, there are however many thousands who do NOT fall into this category of living among "devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.There are some on the Earth in whom God has given the discernment to identify fallen Babylon. Why did the angel use the word Babylon? To understand this one must obtain a knowledge of ancient Babylon ruled originally by Nimrod on the plains of Shinar called Babel because of God's intervention that mixed the languages and caused them to separate from each other. You see Nimrod desired that all of his people huddle together "as one" people, but God decreed that they should scatter abroad the Earth. God told Noah after the floods destruction: Gen 9:1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. However, Nimrod chose to have them all huddle in one bunch and that was against God's decree to Noah. JESUS said that just before He returns that humanity will reach a point in that they would become as the people who lived before the flood and afterward.
Nimrod's attempt to all "be one" in the Neo-Babylonian Empire is the ancient version of the Catholic Churches Vatican initiative of modern "Ecumenism" the movement within the churches BOTH Catholic and Protestant to unite all the worlds churches into one, which is a repeat of the sin of Nimrod and they use these verses "completely out of context" as their basis to pursue this goal. Joh 17:21-23 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Take NOTE: Of the context here! This is that JESUS praying to His FATHER here for the "Unity of the Spirit" NOT the "unity of the church." The key phrase is found in the first phrase of "that they also may be one in us" this is a prayer for unity in the spirit NOT unity in the church. There are so many fickle unlearned so-called Christians in the church today, that true unity in the spirit is near impossible. Also, the prayer was NOT for the church which hadn't materialized at this time but for that of the Apostles who would through the Spirit of God would establish the church. The phrase "I have given them" identifies just who JESUS is praying for. When He prayed this prayer, the church was yet future because they were going to reject and crucify Him. The phrase "the world may believe", was a prophetic statement by the Lord that the Apostles preaching and teaching what He (Himself) taught them, would lead to the world believing.
God never intended that the church as a church a physical entity be anything but "unity in the Spirit" NOT a "United Church" physically which is the goal of "Ecumenism." Ecumenism is the modern Nimrod mindset and cannot materialize among 10,000 different religions and 33,308 different denominations on Earth today, to believe so as does the Pope of Rome is to be delusional. JESUS was born as the Savior of the World to establish the Temple of the Lord and that means unity in the spirit, NOT unity of the physical churches.
When Jesus spoke of the spiritual condition of the world that would be prevalent among mankind just before He comes again He stated the following and drew upon two separate events as identifiers of that spiritual condition. He stated in regards to the world's condition just before He comes Luk 17:26-29 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. We know that JESUS wasn't speaking of His time when He walked the Earth among us. Even though the people of His day "did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage" then the narrative changes with the phrase "until the day that Noe (NOAH) entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all." In other word's it was life as usual as they knew it at the time which involved complete wickedness. What was it like in the days of Noah? Let's ket Gods word answer this question. Gen 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
Considering what's taking place on earth
today with power greedy world leaders both Federal and State, the world's
political unrest, the lies and deceit, the pedophilia priest, the random mass shootings,
the fake news propaganda being spewed worldwide by the internet, the legal protected by law abomination of homosexuality, the Gospel of
JESUS being called "the faith" and not the truth of Gods word. There's a huge
difference between "the faith" and the Gospel truth folks. The faith can be
expressed in a "tree, in the Seas, etc." i.e. the Climate Change activist. THE
FAITH that JESUS spoke of was His "own personal" FAITH which involved complete obedience to God, that is the only saving
faith for the servant of God. Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the
commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
NOTICE: It did NOT say "the faith in Jesus, but the "faith of Jesus." What was the "faith of Jesus" directed towards? His Heavenly FATHER alone this is why He stated: Luk 22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. JESUS had an independent separate "WILL" from that of His FATHER, His human will that shrunk back from "fear" that caused Him to perspire actual "blood" through His skin pores. This condition is called "Hematidrosis."
JESUS also had His own "divine will" which He
never used when He walked the Earth. All of His healings and miracles that He
performed came by and through the power of the FATHER, and JESUS made that
clear here: Joh 8:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have
lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I
do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these
things. There are TWO
separate issues here in this verse. The first is that Jesus spoke of His form
of death His crucifixion on the Cross in the phrase "When ye have lifted up the
Son of man", the second issue is that of His obedience to the FATHER in the phrase " as my Father
hath taught me, I speak these things." These
things that Jesus spoke of was NOT specifically bound to the two statements He made
in this verse alone but encompassed "everything" He spoke prior to and after He made
this statement. TWO issues (His form of "death" and "His Obedience" to the FATHER)
which He must do in order to effect the redemption of humanity. When that
happened then "shall ye know that I am he" the
word "he" here is an added word by the translators and is not found in the
Textus Receptus. The phrase actually reads "then shall ye know
that I am." The words "I am" here eludes to the "Burning Bush"
incident with Moses when Jesus told Moses: Exo 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel,
I AM hath sent me unto you. I AM is in the present continuous tense in both eternity past, present, and eternity future. Thnk for a moment what the phrase "I AM" means. It means the ever-existent, self-existent eternal God without beginning and without end. I AM CONSTANT!
What does "I AM" mean? The Hebrew descendants of Moses understood what Jesus was saying in John 8:28 in the phrase "then shall ye know that I am", but for those who are not of the Hebrew mindset i.e. the West and especially today in the apostate churches most miss the parallel with Exodus 3:14. Many Christians today believe that Jesus existed as Jesus when He was born in Bethlehem as Jesus and they are right. They also believe that Jesus was known as Jesus in heaven before He was born in Bethlehem as Jesus and they would be WRONG. Does He exist in heaven today as JESUS? ABSOLUTELY! But He was NOT known as JESUS prior to His birth in Bethlehem, through a human woman. JESUS could NOT have been the "Only Begotten Son" of GOD in heaven with the FATHER prior to His incarnation and birth in Bethlehem. As heavenly beings do NOT "procreate" they are of NO sex. HE was MICHAEL before His birth as the "Only Begotten Son of God" upon Earth. What does the term "Only Begotten" mean? It means that JESUS as "the man", the BRANCH in Zech 6:12 who grew up out of His rightful place in heaven upon this Earth through a human woman called Mary is the MONOGENISIS, the ONLY ONE of His Kind and there will never be another DUOGENISIS, as there can be NO other SAVIOR of the WORLD. There is ONLY ONE and His name is JESUS the ANOINTED we call Him Jesus Christ, but Christ is NOT his "surname" as some may suppose it's His status before God the FATHER as the ANOINTED of the FATHER for (the purpose) of redemption.
God doesn't need to be anointed nor did Michael the Second person of the GODHEAD needed to be "anointed" however, JESUS did need to be anointed because He was God in the flesh, and the flesh needs to be anointed before God for the service of God. Today it's called for the minister the anointing of Ordination into the ministry. This is what the FATHER did for the SON here: Mat 3:16,17 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: [the ANOINTING of the Son of GOD] And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. In the book of Jude who was the Lord's brother, we find this verse concerning Michael. Jude 1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he [the devil] disputed [argued about] about the body of Moses, [Michael] durst not bring against him [the devil] a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. Now if you read this verse without spiritual eyes i.e without bible knowledge. You will only see FOUR individuals in this verse, you will see "Michael the archangel" and you will see "Satan the devil", "You will see Moses", and you will hear the title Lord.
Now, let's look at the burial of Moses! Deu 34:5,6 So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD. And he [GOD i.e. the LORD] buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre [his grave] unto this day. Only GOD knew where Moses was buried and "no man", so ONLY GOD could come to the resting place of Moses. ONLY God has the power of life and the ability to "resurrect the dead." Therefore, in Jude 1:9 the conversation taking place is between the "devil" and GOD. In Jude 1:9 Michael is identified as GOD. In Jude 1:9 Michael is identified as the Lord. In Jude 1:9 Michael is identified and the singular overseer of all the heavenly host of angels and is called the "archangel" or the leader of the heavenly host of His (own) angelic host. In Jude 1:9 Michael spoke in the "third person" when He stated the phrase "The Lord rebuke thee". Michael could have just said look "devil" I rebuke you because Michael was born Jesus the Lord the Only Begotten Son of God through a human woman when it came the time on God's clock.
This event the resurrection of Moses involved two living entities and ONE dead man, that's three; however, FOUR names are revealed. (1. the devil, 2. Michael, 3. Moses, and 4. the Lord) The living was the "devil" and Michael, the dead, of course, was Moses in his grave that ONLY God was privy to his graves location. NO other personalities were present! So the resurrection of Moses the dispute over his body was between the pre-incarnate Jesus Christ who IS the Lord who is called Michael here and the devil. The dispute was between "Michael and the devil, Michael who became the Lord Jesus and the devil about the body of the dead Moses. Between God and the Devil and Michael who is GOD, his very name Michael means "The ONE who IS as GOD IS!"
Who would you say is over all the hevenly Host of angels? Is it God the FATHER? God the Son or God the Holy Spirit? ANSWER: ALL THREE! That's because Michael IS GOD as much as GOD as the FATHER and the HOLY SPIRIT. The proof in scripture that Michael and JESUS are (one and the same) is found in Daniel 12:1, but before we go there let's go to Daniel 10. Gabriel speaking here to Daniel: Dan 10:13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. The phrase Gabriel used here "the prince of the kingdom of Persia" identifies Satan, it's not speaking of a human Persian "prince". Jesus called Satan the "prince of or over this world. Joh 14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. Gabriel was telling Daniel that he was battling it out with Satan in Daniel 10:13 until Michael arrived to help Him. Only God is more powerful than Satan!
Gabriel tells Daniel that Satan "withstood me one and twenty days" for 21 days the battle raged but take note the devil wasn't strong enough nor allowed to win over his replacement Gabriel. Then Gabriel tells Daniel who came to his assistance "but, lo, Michael" since only God has more power than Satan, Michael [The ONE who IS as GOD IS] came to Gabriel's aid and side so that Gabriel could carry a message to Daniel. Gabriel has a message that concerned the Hebrew people and he was dispatched by Michael to deliver that message. Dan 10:14 Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days. Dan 10:20,21 Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come. But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
NOTICE: In Daniel 10:13 Gabriel says the phrase "one of the chief princes" There is in this statement "three" princes of heaven to be found. The fact that the word "princes" in the plural indicates (two) and the word "one" indicates (one) the
one Michael who is "one of the chief
princes", the FATHER and the HOLY SPIRIT being the other TWO chief princes.
Here again, we see MICHAEL one with the
other two chief princes as being God the second member of the GODHEAD and is called by the angel
Gabriel "one of the chief princes" one plus two others makes the Triune GODHEAD
of the FATHER, Michael, and the Holy Spirit. Gabriel who took Satans place when
he sinned called Michael "one" of the chief princes of heaven. Now we will look
ad Daniel 12:1 with this background. Dan 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and
there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered,
[Redemption, the Harvest of the Saints] every one that shall be found written in the book. The Book of Life!
QUESTION: Who stands UP?
Michael! What is He? "the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people." Who were Daniels people? The Hebrews!
What knowledge does Michael have (in order) to deliver Daniels people? The
knowledge of the names found in the Book of Life. Michael IS JESUS who is coming after His people at the last TRUMP!
QUESTION: Who was the
prince of the Hebrew people that came to Earth as the Savior of the World? It
was Jesus Christ who is the "prince of His people". The Messiah! Only Jesus
knows those who are recorded in the Book of Life, so Michael and Jesus are
one and the same person. He was called Jesus on Earth and after He ascended
back to heaven after His resurrection He re-assumed His name of Michael who
will stand up when the time comes for Him to return back to this Earth and He
will come to deliver His people found written in the Book of Life as JESUS the SAVIOR of the WORLD.
Many today in the church don't really know the God they claim to serve. Isa 4:2 In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel. The prophet Jeremiah also understood the "Council of Peace." Jer 23:5 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. Jer 33:15 In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. Solomon understood the council of peace by and through the Revelation given him from the Spirit of God. Pro 11:28 He that trusteth in his riches shall fall: but the righteous shall flourish as a branch. Zec 3:8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
JESUS called people by the title "BRANCH" Joh 15:2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. What is a BRANCH? It's an extension that protrudes from the LIMB. A limb and a branch are NOT the same. The limb is attached to the trunk which is attached to the roots. Heaven is the ROOT the BRANCH left to grow up out of His rightful place on Earth as the Only Begotten Son of God called JESUS. After JESUS returned to heaven after His resurrection, He has NOT been upon the Earth since that time. It has been the Holy Spirit upon the Earth. Jesus can't be two places at the same time He gave that divine ability up (in order) to save you. He will take it back when ALL is done "HE is GOD the I AM!" He now bears a glorified Human body in heaven as our Great High Priest and has been officiating in that role since His ascension back to heaven. JESUS gave more than His life for you and you will find that out one day when you meet Him in the clouds. His divine attribute of omnipresence was sacrificed along with His earthly life for YOU and me for now over two millienia. That's why He said: Joh 16:7-12 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
One of those many things that Jesus wanted to tell us was what you've learned in this essay. Can you bear it now? In the first century, A.D. many were confused and in the 21st century A.D. many are still confused about the God they claim to serve. They cannot see anything other than what they have been taught by unlearned ministers and preachers who themselves cannot see nor "Bear It!" I'll be the first to say that I don't know it all, no man can ever this side of glory will ever know it all, but God has been very merciful to me and He has answered my prayers in ways I could never have imagined. When people claim to have been saved by "Grace" they have limited knowledge of what that Grace is. The Grace of God is JESUS. Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Jesus sits upon His Throne as Zech 6:13 clearly states! "he shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne" Jesus is the GRACE of GOD sitting upon his throne of grace in the heavens as our Great High Priest. GRACE is NOT separate from JESUS friends. GRACE is not something apart from JESUS. GRACE is just as much eternal, ever-existent, and continuous as is the I AM! When church members today say "I'm saved by GRACE and NOT works of the Law", they are saying they are "half saved" because JESUS kept the LAW perfectly before His FATHER on your behalf, so when you place "GRACE" above the LAW of GOD, you PLACE JESUS HIMSELF which is GOD'S GRACE to humanity above the LAW He HIMSELF wrote. The LAW of God is the "LAW of GOD", and because it's the Law of God, it's an eternal Law and it will be the very LAW in which God will use to make His judgment of YOU when your name comes up before Him. Jas 2:12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty. Why did James call it the "law of liberty?"
Because there's liberty in Jesus Christ and it's the Law He wrote at Mt' Horeb that He came to keep for you because you can't keep it, and it will be used in the judgment to determine if you are worthy of heaven. That means that without Jesus Christ's perfect life IMPUTED and IMPARTED to you and you "break" your relationship with Him. You have NO HOPE of Salvation. The Law of God plays a very significant role in Redemption and Salvation, and yet today most Christians throw it out the window and claim God's Grace. God's Grace and His Law cannot be separated you cannot have one without the other. Since JESUS is God's GRACE towards humanity, and since JESUS wrote the Law of God the separation one from the other is to separate God's character from yourself under the claim of GRACE. GRACE is only complete in JESUS CHRIST and you can't have JESUS CHRIST with a separate GRACE. GRACE requires obedience to the Law of God. Jesus said: Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. 1Jn 5:1-3 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him [The Holy Spirit i.e God the Spirit] that begat [JESUS Christ] loveth him [JESUS] also that is begotten of him. [The Holy Spirit i.e God the Spirit] By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
You cannot love God as your GOD and disregard His LAW, it's impossible! SO how can a fallen sinful person "keep the Law of God?" The answer is obtaining the knowledge of God concerning the ATONEMENT. We became AT-ONE-MENT with God in the INCARNATION of Jesus Christ. When you understand the "Atonement" what really took place in the incarnation of Jesus Christ, you will understand how a sinful human being can keep the "Law of God." It is only possible as Jesus lives His life in YOU, when He does this, YOU then keep the requirement of God, you keep the Law IN CHRIST as He lives IN YOU, but that LAW He came to vindicate on the Cross must be kept by everyone who enters through the gates in the New Jerusalem.
The incarnation of JESUS wasn't just a miracle "sperm" penetrating the fertile egg of a human woman and "poof" Jesus was born. Oh no there was much more, many times more, a Universe more that took place, but many will live and have lived and died on planet Earth without understanding what took place at the "incarnation" of Jesus Christ. QUESTION: When did Jesus save you? Was it when you went forward under conviction by the Spirit of God and made your decision to follow Jesus? 99% of Christians will say "of course" and they would be WRONG! QUESTION: When Jesus died on the Cross in A.D. 31 did He die for you before YOU ever were? You can only answer YES or deny the God of Heaven. Therefore, when was the Atonement of Jesus Christ made beneficial for YOU? When you decided to accept Him as your Savior or did it occur long before you were ever born into this world? Did you live in A.D. 31? Of course NOT! Yet Jesus is still your Savior, so when did He make effective provision for your Salvation?
Was it at the Cross on Golgatha? Again 99% of Christians will say of course. Suppose it took place long before the Cross, suppose it took place at the incarnation. What does the scripture say? 2Co 5:21 For he {GOD] hath made him [JESUS] to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. When did God make Jesus to be SIN for us? Was it at the Cross or in gestation within the womb of Mary? When did God make Jesus the Savior of the World? Was it at His birth? What did Gabriel tell the mother of Jesus? Mat 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
QUESTION: Suppose Jesus died in what we call "crib death" would He still have been the Savior of the World? According to the Angel Gabriel YES, Jesus would still have been the Savior even if He had died an infant. So when were you saved then? Send me an email to ktwatchman@gmail and I will tell you. It was the Death of Jesus that made the Atonement and since He was "made" by God to be "SIN for us, and since Jesus had NO sin of His own either as an infant or a grown man, when did God make Him to be SIN for us? If Jesus has died as an infant He still would have been the Savior of the World. His perfect life lived was an exemplary "sinless" life lived before God the FATHER's requirement. Jesus lived the life God requires of "us" so He could IMPUTE that perfect life to "us" when we come to Him for Redemption. But, had He died in "crib death" He still would have been the Savior of the WORLD! HOW? Send me an email.
What you will learn will give you "an assurance" of God's love for you that you've never in your remotest thoughts ever considered.
