The purpose of the Creation was to create living creatures which will
bear God's spirit, and so he could have been useful and been a partner to
Him. Therefore God created the man not by evolution method like animals (I believe in a
possibility of managed evolution in creating other creatures) but by using own hands. God made
him like the mix of the earth and the Heaven, the mix of the timely matter and the eternal
matter. He took earth's elements, gave them commands to grow and so formed man's body. Then
finally He put the Heavenly eternal spirit in it.
Due to two sources for the created man, they predispose our life to the earth or to the Heaven.
Theologically we call the first course of the innermost being the soul and the second the spirit.
So, we have our soul leading our life to the earth and our spirit leading our life to the Heaven.
Animals live in the curse leading to the earth. Because people chose to incline toward the earth, due to Adam's sin, we may use animals as a picture of them. (Many nations picture themselves by animals in their emblems.) Hence, we may derive two forms of humans. Those who are belonging to the wild nature and these who follow the God's Will.
Souls' desires are following earthly possibilities. They see freedom in their choice to fulfill their ambitions. Fear, that they lose this wild freedom, leads them to take offense at those inclining to spirit. Namely they see as wild habits go down at those who are dependent on their Master.
The Creator created the man after animals. It is a picture for these coming on the sixth part of
the Way. Since Adam was in live contact with God just like one in His family, Christians, who
are already living in the new spirit and who also have received the Holy Spirit in their body, are
like ones in God's family. We are among other creatures to rule them in cooperation with God,
like Adam did at the beginning. (Genesis 2:19-20): "Now the LORD God had formed out of
the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. He brought them to the
man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature,
that was its name. So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds of the air and all the
beasts of the field." Thus, our service is to take care of those who have humbled themselves to
God and respects us. Our responsibility for others is in order that the Church may be victorious,
that none from the Lord's sheep would be lost.
God created the woman
Here some similarity exists: Adam bore part of God and Eve bore part of Adam.
Hence, if teachers symbolize churches like women or wives, then whoever overcomes gains
followers and leads some church body.
Eve was the helper for Adam. Thus God blessed Adam. Hence, churches are also helpers to their pastors. Their members pray for them and help them to carry some heavy burdens. They do charity, worships, prepare celebrating feasts etc. So, they are spiritually united as one body.
Eve also bore children. Hence, church's members also have the task to bring their relatives and friends to God. They rejoice at the newborns, although it afflicts them (praying, fasting, . . . .).
Our duty is also to look at the lives of those in the wilderness so that if something is in disorder there, we could correct it. God has put us in the world in order to pray for our world, for our governments, organizations and so on.
The conclusion for the sixth part of the Way is that God put us in the world as Adam was among animals. We have to take care of those who humble themselves to the Lord (like "domestic animals"). We have to tame "wild animals" and bring them to God, if possible. Still, correcting their corrupt ways is necessary to keep life on the earth.
God bless everyone, who left the wild manners of his soul and is taking a part in life with the
Lord Jesus Christ!
The meaning of the Passover is - YOU WILL NOT DIE - I am passing over your house when
sinners are punished.
Yet the meaning of the Day of Atonement is - I HAVE COME TO DWELL in your camp.
People did not stay in their houses but, rather, every one went before the Temple in Jerusalem or before the Tabernacle. They stood in the courtyard and anywhere else close to the Sanctuary, spiritually on threshold to God's territory.
Only a high priest could enter the dwelling of God, the Holy of Holies. He went there because of those standing outside. Hence, God's ministry to others is our commitment on this part of the Way.
Receiving of God's ministry means to come close to God's Throne, like a high priest ought to enter the Most Holy Place only on this feast. We should serve in God's Temple just as Aaron did.
A high priest had to be perfect, if he wanted to accomplish the task of his office, and to avoid
punishment for any uncleanness. His life was at stake. Therefore, he first had to make atonement
for himself by the blood of the bull. Thus was transformed into a position similar to the mighty
angel, the angel standing at the Throne in the Heaven. This symbolized the special clothing
which he had to wear (Leviticus 16:4).
Aaron could not have come there on his own. His visit was prescribed and still had to be
accepted by the Lord. He was waiting for God's favor, for the sign.
For this purpose he burnt herbs - incense. Only, if the smoke of the incense covered the curtain
of the Sanctuary, he could have entered. He did not enter behind the curtain with empty hands
and burned the incense in the Holy of Holies also. If the fragrance of the incense gave off smoke
to cover the Ark of Testimony, God accepted him and his request, and he could have served. It
means, even we are gifted for some service, for instance to heal, we must wait until our (gifted)
service will be in conformity with God.
The high priest did not enter or walk silently. He had bells on his robe. "The sound of the bells will be heard when he enters the Holy Place before the Lord and when he comes out, so that he will not die" (Exodus 28:35). It means that "tongues" must sound at his coming in and going out.
The Israelis await the Day of Atonement when the Messiah will come to save them and to rule them. Mighty sounds will accompany the Lord's Coming on the earth (Revelation 14:1-3).
What is our commitment?
The task of a high priest was to make the atonement for the nation that they served.
The picture of a nation or a ruler of a nation is a male goat because they offered it for a sin of
ruler (Leviticus 4:22-26). And on the Day of Atonement, they offered also a male goat as a sin
offering.
Then, because the ram (Leviticus 16:3) is instead the lamb and we are at the end of the feasts, we have to see concluding victory for our Way. Finally, we are competent to serve others in the Church. The Lord Christ Jesus has given His authority to us what symbolically means that we are receiving a crown from Him. If you do not like the term a crown then the ruler's staff according to Jacob (Genesis 49:10).
The conclusion is that this part of the way calls us to serve people, to bring people to Christ
Jesus and care about them.
Saul was the first king. People accepted him for his appearance. He was taller than any of the
others. Eyes of the nation accepted Saul as their king. God gave the chance to Saul to obtain the
kingdom for his dynasty. However, Saul failed to fulfill God's will and was rejected (1. Samuel
15). He also committed the great sin of taking the sacred fire into his hands (1. Samuel 13:9).
Then, it was only a question of time when God would have established a new king.
He chose the man named David although this was not delightful to his family (1. Samuel 16) and
to Saul.
Samuel anointed David as king over Israel following the God's will and therefore, in some circumstances, forever. Saul was jealous and tried to kill him. This wrong was good for David's future. It was his bread because people from Israel were turning to him. People saw that God was with David more than with Saul and this proved that he is the God's, the anointed king over the twelve tribes.
David established his kingdom over a large territory. He defeated each enemy. The kings, who did not fight again him, sent him gifts and taxes.
We can observe the establishment of control over the territory on this part of the Way. A man led his followers into victorious battles. Their territory increased as they conquered enemies. Hence, the anointed should lead others in the Lord's Church.
A man, a king, had responsibility for everyone living in his kingdom. If a king had sinned or
decided wrongly, then the whole nation suffered. However, if their king were faithful to God
then the whole nation could receive God's blessing. For instance, when David took a census on
his own will, seven thousand people died for it. David said before Lord: "I am the one who has
sinned and done wrong. These are but sheep. What have they done?" (2 Samuel 24:17)
Thus is also in a church, if God chooses a pastor, the whole community will prosper. However,
if he will not be faithful to God, the whole community shall go down. Therefore, the destiny of
the church depends on God's servant and thus, they have to pray for their minister.
Such occurrences were not in Saul's kingdom. Although Saul did wrongly, people did not suffer in the same way as in the kingdom of David (they could run from him to David). God punished Saul. We may await the same if people chose someone as their leader because he seems to them to be a good one. God will not bless them through their minister and their surviving depends on members' ability to live together (clubs).
We knew David as the true King of Israel. God of the Heaven was with him. Therefore, the Israelis took profit from his good relationship to God. They became strong and great in the eyes of the surrounding nations.
David accumulated things needed to build a house for God (1. Chronicles 29:2-9). He intended
to do it but God wanted him just to make the preparation for it, to gather many people and
supplies. This is because now is the period to gather people and more territories for God and
then God will live with them in Jerusalem or in the New Jerusalem.
So, these who have come on the sixth part of the Way can take responsibility for others. They
can lead ones belonging to God. They are able to save their 'sheep' from enemy attacks and to
bring them God's blessing.
The Lord is now coming on the earth not like "the lamb" but like "the ram". That means He can fight for His sake (a ram fights but not a lamb). The ram symbolically means the priest because was used for the ordination of priests. (Exodus 29)
As I already mentioned, the goat means symbolically the ruler. The Bible names the ruler of the world at the Second Coming the beast. (Revelation 10) The Heavenly army will cast him alive into the lake of fire (Revelation 19:20). This is prophesied already in the command for the Day of Atonement by the scapegoat.
They offered another coat for sin. This goat is for God, and therefore it means, another ruler will be sanctified. (Leviticus 4:22-26) It is another man, a prince who will start to rule at the beginning of the Millennium. (Ezekiel 45-46)
The main point is that the ruler of this world will not be Satan but the Lord Jesus Christ.
People sinned because the beast and therefore they are needed to be redeemed. The goat was also for the people, the sin offering for the people. (Leviticus 9:15) It means that the Israelis will be consecrate for the Millennium. The atonement cover will be above them. The Lord atones them to be the great nation during the Millennium.
Finally Christ Jesus will enter the Temple and so He will anoint the Most Holy Place in the Temple. (They did not allow him to enter first and rather crucified him before two millenniums.)
(Hosea 6:1-2): "Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he has torn, and he will heal us; he has smitten, and he will bind us up. After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his presence."
The Lord Jesus Christ will show Himself as God the Son. "His voice was like the roar of rushing waters, and the land was radiant with his glory." He will enter the Temple using the gate facing east. He will not return to the material world again. "Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of my feet. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever" (Ezekiel 43:1-7). The outer gate of the sanctuary, the one facing east, "remains shut. It must not be opened; no one may enter through it. It is to remain shut because the LORD, the God of Israel, has entered through it. The prince himself is the only one who may sit inside the gateway to eat in the presence of the LORD" (Ezekiel 44:1-4). I understand that the governor of the world will come for advices from God in Jesus Christ. Therefore, he will talk with Him during the Sabbath for creation. It is the constitution of the government for the Millennium.
The spiritual healing will occur in the Temple. Priests will serve the people and help them to live a holy life. Ezekiel speaks of the Temple services, as does Zechariah: "In that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and to the people of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity." (13:1)
God needs to heal the material world. This healing will also come from the Temple, because waters will flow from the Temple and into the sea. "When it empties into the sea, the water there becomes fresh. Swarms of living creatures will live wherever the river flows. There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live." "Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river. Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit fail. Every month they will bear, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing" (Ezekiel 47 and Zechariah 14)
Hence, "the name of the city from that time on will be: THE LORD IS THERE" (Ezekiel 48:35).
Thus, the sixth task is His ruling to the Earth, His kingship on the earth or over the Earth.
As I said that the Holy Spirit afforded people to act like the eternal beings, the sixth stage of the man is his acting like eternal being. The preparation period ended and working have started.
If you want to read more about it read the Acts and see the apostle Paul acting after absolving the six parts of the Way which lasted fourteen years for him.
I conclude that the sixth stage of man development is his change into Lord's servant like angels are.
The Marriage of God the Son with His people represents a revolutionary change in Creation. If one compares the period from the end of the Creation until the end of the Wedding of the Lamb to six working days for the Lamb, then the next Millennium must bring a day of rest to Him.
His Wife has partnership with God, as Adam had before he got Eve; with the distinctive feature that they are eternal beings, for they have left Earthly soul behind. They have become Heavenly beings, because they were in the Heaven during the Wedding of the Lamb. If they are Heavenly beings, then they must have their private rooms there in Heaven. According to Revelation, their new dwelling spaces are in the city called the New Jerusalem. It is not a city built from earthly stones; it is "the city of pure gold, as pure as glass" (Revelation 21:18).
Earth's gold is not transparent like glass; light cannot travel through it. Earthly gold, like all other minerals, is a solid material formed in three spatial dimensions. Similarly, gravity causes all habitations and routes to them to be more or less on the surface of the Earth. But Heavenly houses could be built without gravitational effects, thus growing high even as they spread in width and length. Thus, the New Jerusalem would basically have a crystalline structure. "He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia in length, and as wide and high as it is long" (Revelation 21:16).
The reality of gravity dictates that an Earthly city could not move from its location on the Earth; but such is not the case with the New Jerusalem. When its inhabitants need to change location, the city is relocated. Since the Lamb is going to move onto the Earth, his Wife should follow Him. So, the New Jerusalem will eventually move to the Earth. "And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven from God" (Revelation 21:10).
Resurrected humans, grouped as a body under the name of the Wife of the Lamb, will move with God the Son (their Husband) to the Earth. "I saw Heaven standing open and there before me was a White Horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. The armies of Heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean" (Revelation 19:11-14). They are dressed in clean white linen, and so they cannot be returning from battles or other commitments. Therefore the armies of Heaven following Him are not angels of God the Father, but recruits just enrolled in God's Army.
Humans are also God's servants, because when John intended to worship the angel, the angel said to him: "Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God!" (Revelation 19:10). This means that humans will serve God after the Wedding banquet just as angels once did. By this point, after the breaking the Seventh Seal, the angels should be busy with affairs of the wars and the harvesting of the earth. Our recruits enter the story in the Seventh Seal; indeed, they got their commissions just for the finale of the Heavenly Book. Those, riding on the white, were charged with tasks during the Wedding of the Lamb (Revelation 19:9), which is why are still as in their wedding robes (fine linen, white and clean).
The result of their expedition is the final destruction of the evildoers, and the rescue of those who have been left behind. The recruits were already performing this task in flesh, when they used the sword of God's word. At that time, they believed that God's servants were nearby to save them in all situations. Now, they themselves are going to save and render aid to other believers in God.
The inhabitants of the Earth should not be able to see them, just as we do not see angels. They should recognize God in Christ Jesus; the Messiah has saved them from evildoers, so He should be praised, not the Resurrected humans. The recruits act following the words of God the Son: "Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. He will rule them with an iron scepter" (Revelation 19:15).
Viewed from another angle, the impact of the Millennium is that no evil powers will be allowed to afflict Creation for a thousand years. Therefore, the angels should bind them for this period; in a sense, the evil powers shall be put in jail (Revelation 20:1-3). The angels are able to do this now because the recruits come to occupy the territory which was their previous battlefield (or working place).
In any case, beings in the likeness of angels must inhabit the invisible world of the Earth. These new beings are "those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years" (Revelation 20:4-6). Now they take the territory where evil forces once had their bastions. The invisible world is their booty. There, the Wife of the Lamb will work.
The resurrected humans could not exist in the material world to live with their families in Earthly flesh, because they have forever left that existence, based on declining energy, or increasing entropy. According to the Second Law of Thermodynamic, everything in the universe moves in the direction of declining energy, not toward evolution but toward death.
The existence of the Wife does not depend on the energy coming from the sun: "and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp" (Revelation 21:10-11, 23). So, Earthly beings move in the light of the sun; but beings of the New Jerusalem move in God, move in God's light. We could not compare God with the sun, which will someday burn out. God is the Eternal, and so these moving in His light live eternal life.
Thus, the place for the marriage will be on the Earth. The Church first (today) walking in the
faith in God walk in God's light (during the Millennium). That is why we call this stage the
Marriage. We were first the Fiancée (the Church) then the Bride and now the Wife of the Lamb.
The words about the opened door should not be overlooked, because the Lord repeats them. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. Therefore, this letter is the last one before the Rapture.
Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the Earth.
Are these not words about the Rapture prior to the Great Tribulation? These words serve not only as evidence for the Coming of the Rapture, but also as the proof that the Church will not suffer the Tribulation.
I am coming soon. Does this not refer to the Second Coming of the Messiah to the Earth?
My conclusion is that today's Church is the Church of the Rapture. Pastors should lead followers in this direction. Christians who are going to be Raptured feel the Lord's Coming, and ask preachers to speak about it or research it for more information. This is grist for those who do not teach inspired theologies. It is said, "I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars."
In this context, the term "synagogue" refers to today's seminaries, schools, theological institutes, and other places where Christian leaders receive instruction about the Church and the focus of life in every community. If the Lord says that Satan inspires their instructions, then those teachings may be false in the context of this letter. Therefore, the teachings of present Biblical schools regarding the Lord's Second Coming and the Rapture must be false. Yet there is hope for their repentance, because the Lord tells us, "I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you."
The reward or blessing overlaps the main message. The Lord promises to his chosen and faithful
followers to have a dwelling and working place in the New Jerusalem. Him who overcomes I
will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the
name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down
out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name.
"No one will take your crown"
God's service is on this part of the Way. Leading battles with Satan's kingdom cannot be
victorious if the Lord Jesus Christ's crown is not over our head. As in David's kingdom Joab was
fighting under the sigh of king David, (2.Samuel 12:26-31), so Christians fight under the sign
'cross', under the crown of Jesus Christ. Namely Christ Jesus defeated Satan and so our fighting
with Satan's servants can be advantageous if we believe in Christ Jesus's victory, have His
crown.
If someone is using a borrowed car for a long time, it may be left to him as his possession. The
same with property, etc. Therefore, if we will do a good job by using Lord's crown, it could be
left to our possession after the war is over.
We have written in the scriptures that Jesus Christ promised crowns to His disciples even to
judge the twelve tribes of Israel (Matthew 19:28).
If someone conquers some territory for his Lord, the King, then, the Lord has to put an
administrator there. Who is better for it than the one who led battles for this territory?
Roman emperors assigned the management of conquered territories to good soldiers. This was
the reward for retiring commanders. First they fought for the crown of the Roman Empire then
they carried (apply) the emperor's crown over the territory.
By the same way, the Lord gives His crown for the ministry now and if he overcomes, he may
hold God's crown on the territory during the Millennium (Revelation 20:14).
Christ Jesus gave the crown to the first evangelists, so that no one would take it from the Church. Christians should ride as masters in their triumph. The triumph is that the Gospel will be preached to every nation, and so persons from all nations would make the Church.
"I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it."
During our ministry, we must deal with uncleanness, live among sinners and the devil may
attack us. But during the Millennium, we will not deal with uncleanness anymore, because Satan
will be bound. No one from the material world will attack us because we will not be any
material beings. Resurrected beings will dwell in the New Jerusalem and there "I saw no temple
therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need
of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is
the light thereof." (Revelation 21:22-23)
"I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new
Jerusalem, which is coming down out of Heaven from my God, and I will also write on him
my new name".
Christians, on the sixth part of the Way, lead battles with ours and God's enemies from our
bodies. Therefore, the reward is not just citizenship in God's kingdom but the minister in God's
kingdom. The name of whim who overcomes is written down among God's servants. His name is
written among officers in God's kingdom, among coworkers of angels.
Taking office in the Church is like the ministry for the new Jerusalem. Therefore, the name of
this city is written on him, like we used to bear the name of the company, which employs us, on
our uniforms or overalls.
The Lord Jesus Christ will have the new name because He will be the only ruler of the Earth. His
today's purpose is the Savior of the world. His new (function) is "the King of the Earth", or King
of kings (Revelation 19:12). Then, who will be in His service, he must bear His name also, His
new name. For instance it may be "xy, the officer of the King of the Earth".
So, the reward for these who overcome the sixth part of the Way and pass away is receiving an office also after Resurrection.
"I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan," In this context, the term "synagogue" refers to today's seminaries, schools, theological institutes, and other places where Christian leaders receive instruction about the Church and the focus of life in every community. If the Lord says that Satan inspires their instructions, then those teachings are false. We need to identify the field where Satan works. The context of the letter says that everything is headed toward the Lord's Coming (the Second Coming). Therefore, the teachings of present Biblical schools regarding the Lord's Second Coming and the Rapture may be false, according to the Lord's letter for this Church. Yet there is hope for their repentance, because the Lord tells us, "I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you."
Their main sin is to make the work (the Book) of God the Father darkness and dreadful. People of our world mutter for the Lord's Book because this book has reputation of Satanic riding in our world. Although the Lord Jesus Christ gave wrote (gave the command to write) only Revelation, this book is more dreadfully than testimony about His ministry (the Gospels) or letters of men, of the apostles.
Human desire is to be someone big like Satan wanted to be god. Then, if this part shows God's Ministry, some men want to get the highest post. They explain Revelation although the Lord did not call them to do it. History of the Church teaches us, where reviles were then they stopped because leaders of reviles started to explain Revelation according to theological schools. Many churches and denominations went down because this sin.
If you would not like the word sin then churches fall down because teachers teach even inhuman logic. They teach 1260 days are equal 3.5 years in Revelation 12 verse 6 and 14. Everyone reading Revelation 12 knows that the chapter 12 is dynamic. To pass literature, every pupil must see two events from different positions of the timeline not happen in the same time. More, if different things and persons are there, then only he who never read Revelation can say, "they are two descriptions of the once happened event".
Their construction of interpretation could be compare to Nebuchadnezzarr statue. (Daniel 3)
Since the ministry is the highest production of Christian in the Church, Satan tries to collapse the
highest production of Christ Jesus in the Church. Namely, Christ Jesus stepped on the Throne at
the Second Coming in order that the Gospel would be preached to every nation, tribe, people and
language. If the minister teaches perversion about his Ordinator, his ministry is blocked. The
main perversion is that Christ Jesus is the biggest terrorist because as the resurrected Man lords
the great tribulation on the earth. How can he preach mercy if Christ Jesus kills? Read more in
the book The Chronology of Revelation written by Miroslav Halza.
