Revelation 12 : Dragons persecution of Woman

And the SERPENT cast out of his mouth water as a FLOOD after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. 16And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

Isaiah 59 : Salvation is Only of God 

17For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation on his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak. 18According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompense.

19So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.

The Covenant of the Redeemer

20And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and to them that turn from transgression in Jacob, said the LORD.  21As for me, this is my covenant with them, said the LORD; My spirit that is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your seed, nor out of the mouth of your seed’s seed, said the LORD, from now on and for ever. 

 


Luke 21 : desolation will come 

10Then said he to them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: 11And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. 12But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake. 13And it shall turn to you for a testimony. 14Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what you shall answer: 15For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.


 Revelation 19 : The Rider on the White Horse 

13And he was clothed with a clothing dipped in blood: and HIS NAME IS CALLED THE WORD OF GOD

14And the armies which were in heaven followed him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword,that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treads the wine press of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

Psalm 119 :: Your Word is a Lamp to My Feet

25My soul sticks to the dust: quicken you me according to your word. 26I have declared my ways, and you heard me: teach me your statutes. 27Make me to understand the way of your precepts: so shall I talk of your wondrous works. 28My soul melts for heaviness: strengthen you me according to your word. 29Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me your law graciously. 30I have chosen the way of truth: your judgments have I laid before me. 31I have stuck to your testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame. 32I will run the way of your commandments, when you shall enlarge my heart


129Your testimonies are wonderful: therefore does my soul keep them. 130The entrance of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. 131I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for your commandments. 132Look you on me, and be merciful to me, as you use to do to those that love your name. 133Order my steps in your word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. 134Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep your precepts. 135Make your face to shine on your servant; and teach me your statutes. 136Rivers of waters run down my eyes, because they keep not your law.

Ephesians 2  : One in Christ

11Why remember, that you being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; 12That at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13But now in Christ Jesus you who sometimes were far off are made near by the blood of Christ.14For he is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of partition between us;15Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of two one new man, so making peace;16And that he might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were near. 18For through him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father

Hebrews 2 : Run with Perseverance

(2 Timothy 2:1-13)

1Why seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2Looking to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

 

MATTHEW 5 : JESUS FULFILLS THE LAW

17thVERSE

THINK NOT THAT I AM COME TO DESTROY THE LAW, OR THE PROPHETS: I AM NOT COME TO DESTROY, BUT TO FULFILL.

18For truly I say to you, Till heaven and earth pass, one stroke or one pronunciation mark shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19Whoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

that he might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: 17And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were near. 18For through him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.


That’s why we will be priests with Him.  Levi = “Joined to”  We are joined to Him, not computers.


By that time “computers will have human-level intelligence,” (Predicted to occur by 2029) Kurzweil said in an interview with South by Southwest. “That leads to computers having human intelligence, our putting them inside our brains, connecting them to the cloud, expanding who we are..”  The joining together of human beings and computer technology at this level, he maintained, will make people “funnier,” “sexier,” and will “exemplify all the things that we value in humans to a greater degree.”


A plumb bob or a plummet is a weight, usually with a pointed tip on the bottom, that is suspended from a string and used as a vertical reference line, or plumb-line.  It is essentially the vertical equivalent of a “water level”.  The instrument has been used since at least the time of ancient Egypt to ensure that constructions are “plumb”, or vertical.

Christ blood became our justification at the cross.

AMOS 7 : THE LOCUSTS, FIRE, AND PLUMBLINE(Joel 2:1-11)    

We are commanded to Keep the Law, ie., do (perform) his commandments

Romans 4:15

Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.

Romans 5:9

 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Galatians 5 : Living by the Spirit  (Romans 8:9-11)

16This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that you cannot do the things that you would. 18But if you be led of the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these;

Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, jealousies, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,21 Contentions, murders, drunkenness, revelings,


17Works of the flesh

and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.24And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. 25If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

 

Galations 2 : 

, 16Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

17But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid. 18For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. 19For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live to God. 20I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. 21I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

 

Galatians 3 : Christ Redeemed Us  (Deuteronomy 21:22-23)

10For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continues not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 11But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. 12And the law is not of faith: but, The man that does them shall live in them. 13Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:14That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

The Purpose of the Law

19Why then serves the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. 20Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. 21Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness should have been by the law. 22But the scripture has concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

23But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up to the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 24Why the law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

everything they are doing is based off 17 because they are trying to merge heaven and earth through their own works.


“THE MYSTERY RELIGIONS also preserved a legend:  

When heaven and earth joined together, gods descended to earth. “

 Sin is an archer’s term for missing the mark.

And he gave him tithes of all.


REVELATION 3 : MESSAGE TO THE CHURCH IN PHILADELPHIA

12Him that overcomes will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I WILL WRITE ON HIM THE NAME OF MY GOD, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God: and I WILL WRITE ON HIM MY NEW NAME.13He that has an EAR, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches.

The Covenant of Circumcision 

9And God said to Abraham, You shall keep my covenant therefore, you, and your seed after you in their generations. 10This is my covenant, which you shall keep, between me and you and your seed after you; Every man child among you shall be circumcised. 11And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant between me and you.

4skin ::  Circumcision used to remove the reproach.

12And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any stranger, which is not of your seed. 13He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with your money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant. 14And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant. 15And God said to Abraham, As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. 16And I will bless her, and give you a son also of her: yes, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.

1For as much as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us, 2Even as they delivered them to us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word; 3It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus
