Christ is ALL IN ALL –

Christ is ALL IN ALL

And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. (1st Corinthians 12:6)
Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. (Ephesians 1:23)
And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. (1st Corinthians 15:28)
Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him. (Hebrews 2:8)

INTRODUCTION
ALL IN ALL
in
The Infallible Word of God

   Three times the Spirit of God draws us to ALL IN ALL. The very fabric of the divine Being: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are seen in the manifestation of God IN Jesus Christ who is ALL IN ALL in 1st Corinthians 12:6, And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. It is the same God that worketh ALL IN ALL, it is NOT many gods, but ONE GOD who has verbal dominion over the word of God in both Old and New Testaments. It is time that man and the world would believe in an infallible God, and in that respect, to acknowledge God’s infallible word. FAITH must not only see God, but the span of His word as infallible. We live in a world of many voices, so how can we discern truth? We must begin with FAITH and the belief in an infallible God who maintains and KEEPS His infallible TRUTH through His infallible word. There is one voice of truth and this voice is the Spirit of Truth from the throne of God.
   The apostle tells us to weigh all things, to measure the words and to separate the words of man from the word of God. The Bible has been breathed by God and has the PERFECT BALANCE of words. It is a scroll of righteousness through the tides and times of man. It has been tried by the evil spirits of this world in the furnace of life and poured out as golden letters from the divine mind of God. It is a scroll of time from the beginning to the fullness of time. The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. (Psalm 12:6)
   And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. In 1st Corinthians 12:6 we see the Sovereign GOD and how the Sovereign God worketh, this also shows us that in His manifestation as the Son of God, that the Lord Jesus Christ both delighted and worked to do the will of the Father. But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. (John 5:17) Through a divine relationship, a divine unity, both God the Son and God the Father pulled the plow of righteousness in the same line. As the work began ‘In the beginning,’ Christ declared that He must finish THAT work. Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. (John 4:34) Our work, as the children of God, is BELIEVING IN CHRIST whom God has sent. Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. (John 6:29) These words sound simple, yet, the world in its unrighteousness, sin and iniquity rejects both the Lord Jesus Christ and God the Father. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. (John 1:10) He came unto his own, and his own received him not. (John 1:11)

The ONE who is ALL IN ALL
DIED FOR US

   God created and raised up the vineyard of Israel to give to man a divine witness of the Almighty God. He gave divine laws and commands, but the Israel of God turned to the gods of the heathen and worshiped the gods of the Gentile world. God continually sent His prophets and His servants into the vineyard to declare HIS righteousness, but the self-proclaimed masters of the vineyard beat some and killed others. So, lastly, from heaven above, God sent His Son, made of a woman and made under the Law.

â—Ź Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world: (Galatians 4:3)
But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, (Galatians 4:4)
To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. (Galatians 4:5)
And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. (Galatians 4:6)
Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ. (Galatians 4:7)
â—Ź And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority? (Luke 20:2)
And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me: (Luke 20:3)
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? (Luke 20:4)
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not? (Luke 20:5)
But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet. (Luke 20:6)
And they answered, that they could not tell whence it was. (Luke 20:7)
And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things. (Luke 20:8)
Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time. (Luke 20:9)
And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty. (Luke 20:10)
And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated him shamefully, and sent him away empty. (Luke 20:11)
And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out. (Luke 20:12)
Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him. (Luke 20:13)
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours. (Luke 20:14)
So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them? (Luke 20:15)
He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid. (Luke 20:16)
And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner? (Luke 20:17)
Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. (Luke 20:18)
And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them. (Luke 20:19)

   You can look back to the nation of Israel, and you can condemn them for casting the Son of God OUT of the vineyard and OUT of this world, however, the professing church of this world has done no better. They have locked the doors of THEIR sanctuaries to the truth of God, and instead of being a dwelling place of GRACE, they have made themselves the cauldron of sin, stirring the UNBELIEF and FALSITIES of the Nicolaitans. But God has given us a wonderful window of TRUTH. In Galatians Chapter 4, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. When we were alienated from the commonwealth of God, Christ died for us. When we were the children of Adam and under the bondage of sin, Christ died for us. When we were the children of disobedience, Christ died for us.

Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: (Ephesians 2:2)
Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. (Ephesians 2:3)
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, (Ephesians 2:4)
Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) (Ephesians 2:5)
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: (Ephesians 2:6)
That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. (Ephesians 2:7)

But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; (Hebrews 9:11)
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. (Hebrews 9:12)
For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: (Hebrews 9:13)
How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Hebrews 9:14)

   Christ shed HIS blood, God’s blood, as a righteous covering for the SIN of the whole world. He offered HIMSELF THROUGH the Eternal Spirit showing that IN Himself was the Eternal Spirit of the Godhead. He offered Himself to God as a sacrifice of righteousness for Christ LOVED righteousness and HATED iniquity.

But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. (Hebrews 1:8)Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. (Hebrews 1:9)

   In Isaiah 53:10 it is GOD that offered the soul of His Son for sin. We need to stand in awe as we examine the intricacies of the sacrifice of God’s dear Son. As we look at the SOUL being sacrificed it is to RESTORE the SOULS of man; it is the purchasing power of the blood, for it was the blood of God, it was not Adam’s blood that restored souls. In blood touches blood SIN touches sin, but in Acts 20:28 God PURCHASED HIS church, the redeemed with His own blood, as Christ was separate from sinners, so His blood was separate from the blood of man. Salvation cannot come through the line of Adam. Salvation is a supernatural act of God by God. I use an Old Testament example, God told Jehoshaphat and the people of Israel to stand still and to see their salvation.

Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out against them: for the LORD will be with you. (2nd Chronicles 20:17)
And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD, worshipping the LORD. (2nd Chronicles 20:18)
And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high. (2nd Chronicles 20:19)
And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. (2nd Chronicles 20:20)
And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth for ever. (2nd Chronicles 20:21)
And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. (2nd Chronicles 20:22)
For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another. (2nd Chronicles 20:23)
And when Judah came toward the watch tower in the wilderness, they looked unto the multitude, and, behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none escaped. (2nd Chronicles 20:24)
And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches with the dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away: and they were three days in gathering of the spoil, it was so much. (2nd Chronicles 20:25)

   This epic in 2nd Chronicles 20 was one of those sundry times and diverse manners that God used to show us that there is NO power in man over his enemies. ONLY God can win that battle. The people of Jehoshaphat were outnumbered, and a battle of the flesh would not bring victory. The children of mount Seir outnumbered the children of Israel, and the only way to victory was to STAND STILL and TRUST the Lord of glory, the ALL IN ALL, and let the divine Authority bring victory to pass by the word of His power. Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high. (Hebrews 1:3)
   God took the sword of the enemy and turned that sword against themselves. They slaughtered each other. God in His victory over sin took the SIN of the world upon Himself and slaughtered the enemy thereby using Satan’s own sword against himself. I once heard a saying which was very true, he that has power in the word of God must have the power of THAT word within himself. A good example is the Spirit’s message in ALL of Psalm 119. READ that Psalm, mediate on that Psalm and slowly you will see the rose blossom before you, you will smell the fragrance of the words, as those on the Emmaus Road, your heart will burn within you as the Spirit of God illuminates each word to your heart, soul and spirit.
    We live in a world of division, and so many love to divide, they love to divide the Godhead, but the Godhead is ONE. For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. (Colossians 2:9) They love to divide the word of God, but the word of God is indivisible. They love to divide Christ, and they love to divide the spirit of His people who have been born of His Spirit, and sanctified by His blood. Instead of all the fluff and all the humanization of the church, STAND BACK and STAND STILL and see your salvation . Make sure the enemy of your soul has been defeated by Christ IN you and the hope of glory.

As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: (1st Peter 2:2)
If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. (1st Peter 2:3)
To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, (1st Peter 2:4)
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. (1st Peter 2:5)
Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. (1st Peter 2:6)
Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner. (1st Peter 2:7)

   This is the testimony of the Spirit of TRUTH within the newborn child of God. As the natural baby cries for his mother’s milk, so the child of God DESIRES the sincere milk of the word of God, and to receive this sincere milk of the word, it must come from Jerusalem, which is above, the mother of us all. Those who walk in the Spirit of Christ, must be ministered to by the Spirit of TRUTH according to the word of His power. The knowledge of God must be sealed by the Spirit of TRUTH, and there is NO power without the voice of Christ from heaven. The Living Word has given us His everlasting word. This means that He authored that word and He KEPT that word and PRESERVED that word in all holiness.

â—Ź See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: (Hebrews 12:25)
Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. (Hebrews 12:26)
And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. (Hebrews 12:27)
Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: (Hebrews 12:28)
For our God is a consuming fire. (Hebrews 12:29)
â—Ź In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (John 1:1)
The same was in the beginning with God. (John 1:2)
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. (John 1:3)
In him was life; and the life was the light of men. (John 1:4)

The ONE who is ALL IN ALL
Was CHOSEN and PRECIOUS

  How we see the Lord Jesus Christ in our heart, soul and spirit should reflect on how God the Father sees His Beloved Son. In Chapter 2 of 1st Peter, Christ is chosen of God and precious. To whom coming, [as unto] a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, [and] precious. (1st Peter 2:4) This is the Father’s thought in the Spirit concerning His beloved Son. Take whatever you hold precious in this world, and Christ should be held MORE precious then ALL the treasures that you possess. The Spirit of God throughout Scripture uses the paint brush of words to describe the Lord Jesus Christ as the chosen of God AND precious.

To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, (1st Peter 2:4)
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. (1st Peter 2:5)
Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. (1st Peter 2:6)
Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner. (1st Peter 2:7)

   Three times, in these few verses, the word precious is used in relationship to the Lord Jesus Christ. The word precious is mentioned SIX times in the Psalms, and once in Proverbs 20:15.

â—Ź (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:) (Psalm 49:8)
â—Ź He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight. (Psalm 72:14)
â—Ź Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints. (Psalm 116:15)

â—Ź He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him. (Psalm 126:6)
â—Ź It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; (Psalm 133:2)
â—Ź How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! (Psalm 139:17)
â—Ź There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel. (Proverbs 20:15)

   The knowledge of the most precious jewel is HE who is precious, the Lord Jesus Christ. Using the word precious, the Spirit of God magnifies the Person of Christ as when He was chosen, He was precious. Also, we see the words elect and precious. These all lead to the determinate counsels of God and the foreknowledge of God that Christ was CHOSEN to be the Lamb of God and the Savior of men, and the King of righteousness. His election was BEFORE the creation of God, and the plan of redemption was conceived in the heart and mind of God BEFORE the world was. The words chosen and precious is what He was and is to God the Father. The words elect and precious expands the path of divine work that He was ELECTED to do; this is a mystery to us who live in a world of sin for this is the only world that we have known. We had NO man in this world who could redeem us. In all the Old Testament sacrifices it was NOT the blood of man in Adam, but the animals who had NO sin within them. This is a good example that through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, being apart from the blood of man, that it was DIVINE blood, God’s blood, on the cross of Calvary. Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. (Acts 20:28) It was God’s blood on the cross. Jesus was the Son of God, He was also the Son of man in His incarnation, for within Him was the Spirit of God. He was also made in the LIKENESS of sinful flesh to be the man of sorrows. He was HEIR of ALL things. He was HEIR of the vineyard, and He was/is GOD. The Lord Jesus made it plain when He proclaimed that I and my Father are ONE.

â—Ź Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake. (John 14:11)
â—Ź But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. (John 10:38)
â—Ź Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; (John 17:20)
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. (John 17:21)
And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: (John 17:22)
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. (John 17:23)

   In this we see that the Godhead is unique. It cannot be divided. You cannot separate the Father from the Son, and while Christ was ON earth, He was in perfect communion with God the Father. And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. (John 3:13) Here we have perfect communion in heaven and on earth with God the Father. While Christ was in His manifestation on earth at the same time heaven was open to Him. In verse 11 of John Chapter 3, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. The Lord Jesus identifies with the Godhead using the word we three times, thus, all three signifies Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Then by divine revelation to man, He used the word OUR in our witness. This encompasses the whole GODHEAD. Only those who bury their heads in the sand of a fallen and corrupt earth can ignore these truths. Even on the cross, we see the witness of the whole GODHEAD. The Lord Jesus expressed to God the Father through Luke 23:34, Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
   He offered Himself through the eternal Spirit. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Hebrews 9:14) The last expression of Christ to God the Father was into thy hands I commend my spirit. And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. (Luke 23:46) Christ was NEVER separated from God the Father. When Christ cried out, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani, Christ was speaking in His passion and position as the Son of man. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? (Matthew 27:46) The sufferings of Christ are recorded in Psalm 22. These were the suffering of the LIKENESS of sinful flesh, as we also see in Isaiah 53. To be the perfect sacrifice, He had to be without SIN and without the character and penalty of Adam upon Him. Christ was NOT born in corruptible flesh. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh. (Romans 8:3) But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men. (Philippians 2:7) In Philippians we have three characteristics of the Lord’s manifestation. One: He HUMBLED Himself. Two: He took on the FORM of a SERVANT, and three: He was made in the LIKENESS of men. Regarding His servitude: in Isaiah 53:11, God called Him His RIGHTEOUS servant. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. There is NO other in the Bible who was designated as my righteous servant. In His LIKENESS of men, God created Adam out of the dust of the ground, and made Adam in the image of God. So, Adam had a LIKENESS of God BUT Adam NEVER received deity. Now Christ took on the LIKENESS of sinful flesh, and a LIKENESS of man, but without SIN, for He was separate from sinners. One other point: there is great confusion about the Lord’s manifestation when God the Holy Spirit came upon Mary, and Christ that holy thing was conceived IN her womb that was the point of the manifestation of the Son of God. It was NOT at the time of His birth, NOR in the Temple, NOR at His baptism with John the Baptist. Also remember when Mary entered the room of her cousin Elisabeth when John the Baptist was in the womb of Elisabeth that the yet unborn John JUMPED for JOY. There was a divine communication between Christ in the womb of Mary and John in the womb of Elisabeth thus showing us the transit power of the Spirit of Christ even BEFORE HIS birth. God is Spirit and God cannot deny Himself. All along the path of Jesus Christ, we receive pictures of His divinity through the Spirit of TRUTH. And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. (Matthew 3:15) The Lord Jesus was being baptized into His own death. The baptism was part of fulfilling the whole work that the Father had given Him to do. It is not just righteousness that He was fulfilling, but ALL righteousness. One example is that we, the children of God, are ALL part of that righteousness because we have been MADE righteous IN the Lord Jesus Christ, who fulfilled ALL righteousness on the cross of Calvary. But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption. (1st Corinthians 1:30)
   After the Lord Jesus commended His Spirit to God the Father, He bowed His head and gave up the Ghost. This is far different from the Spirit that He commended to His Father. We should see our first verse of three. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. (1st Corinthians 121:6) There are diversities of operations: we should see that even on the cross that the Son of man gave up the Ghost, and the Son of God commended His Spirit to the Father. Two different actions in the diversities of operations, but it is the SAME GOD which worketh ALL IN ALL. This verse in 1st Corinthians is the sundry times and diverse manners of 1st Corinthians. As the CREATOR of ALL things, Christ has carried many names for His name’s sake which is JESUS, the name that is ABOVE every name. CLICK HERE and CLICK again for more about His name’s sake.
    Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name. (Philippians 2:9) As the God of glory presents Himself through His revelation to man, each designation and name gives a certain character to God and to the glory of God. When we come to the Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ, we see the image of the Son of God given to John as He who is the Alpha and the Omega, the BEGINNING and the END. The last name that is given in the book of the Revelation is I JESUS. You can compare this with I AM THAT I AM. I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. (Revelation 22:16) It will be the name JESUS that is to be written in our forehead; not UPON our forehead, but WITHIN our forehead. And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. (Revelation 22:4)

   The world has trampled upon this name. They have denied this ONE in every imaginable way for it was GOD who shed His blood by the Eternal Spirit. As the world rejects the Lord Jesus Christ, there is a warning to their unbelief and to those who trample underfoot the name of JESUS. Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden underfoot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? (Hebrews 10:29)
   The word of God is a mountain of righteousness. It is the mountain of TRUTH, and it is the mountain of God’s holiness. If we listen to the prophets in both the Old and New Testaments, we will see the holiness and the righteousness in the LAW of God. Mount Sinai becomes a witness of righteousness. The mountain shows forth the glory of God, and when Christ was transfigured, the two witnesses who spoke of His death in Jerusalem were Moses and Elijah: the LAW and the PROPHETS. When Christ was baptized by John, you have in CHRIST the Author and Upholder of the LAW; in John you have the PROPHETS; and the LAW and the PROPHETS are a theme throughout Scripture. What is commonly called, the mountain of transfiguration, should be called the mount of the glory of Christ. But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. (Luke 9:32)
   Now both Moses and Elijah spoke of what the Lord Jesus would accomplish in Jerusalem. He would FINISH the work that God the Father had given to Him. We do NOT lay hold of the words that He spoke on the cross of Calvary. Sinai was both the mount of the LAW and the mount of GRACE in the transfiguration of the Lord Jesus Christ. Mount Calvary was to complete that circle of LAW and GRACE. When the Lord Jesus declared that IT IS FINISHED, the gates of GRACE opened wide to everyone through FAITH. Those who had walked by FAITH in the Old Testament, their FAITH was finalized in those three words, IT IS FINISHED. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. (John 19:30) We should see the connection with mount Sinai and mount Calvary. The mind of the Spirit in the gospel of Matthew when Christ was transfigured, the word glory is not used. Consider this: Matthew is the gospel of the ETERNAL KING, and His reigning glory has NOT yet come. We wait that day when the whole world will see HIS GLORY as LORD of LORDS and KING of KINGS.
   In the gospel of Mark, when He was transfigured, the word glory is NOT mentioned because Jesus is seen in the gospel of Mark as the servant sent forth into the earth. This righteous servant will receive His glory when He sits down on the ETERNAL THRONE of God as we see in Revelation Chapters 4 and 5. In Revelation 4 and 5, we see the Lamb that was slain in His servitude to God, we also see the Lion from the tribe of Judah wearing His crown of righteousness as the designated King of glory.
    In the gospel of Luke, the word glory is used for the Son of man, which Christ revealed to His disciples in His resurrection from the dead. In the upper room, He came in and revealed His Body of glory to His disciples. Now in the fourth gospel, many have said that there is no mount of glory, that there is NO transfiguration, yet, John declared that we beheld His glory. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. (John 1:14) Sitting around this verse, what a verse, the divine was made flesh, and came from heaven’s glory and dwelt among us. John was expressing that WE beheld His glory. John was referring to Peter, James and himself that on that mount they beheld HIS glory. This was that holy thing that was presented to us in Luke 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. As the Spirit of God introduces the Lord Jesus as that holy thing, the Holy Spirit continues that theme with the holy child in Acts 4:27. For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together. Throughout the Scripture, Christ is mentioned as the Holy One fifty two (52) times, and as the Holy One of Israel He is mentioned thirty-one (31) times.

Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. (Mark 1:24)
Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God. (Luke 4:34)

   These are the demons, the soldiers and slaves of Satan’s army, the infernal spirits who recognized the Lord Jesus as the Holy One of God. What man could NOT see with his blinded eyes of sin, the demons could see the Holy One of God. Twice, even the strength of the army of Satan was broken to show the power of God in that holy thing, the holy child Jesus, the Holy One of God and in the book of Acts, the Spirit of God calls the Lord Jesus the Holy One three times. Consider what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Jews, and also to the Gentiles. The SAME HOLY ONE in the Old Testament , the Holy One of Israel which was mentioned thirty one times, so that in the book of Acts we have the connection between the Old and New Testaments. This should get the attention of both Jew and Gentile today, in fact, the whole world should recognize that the Lord Jesus Christ is The Holy One of God. The Holy One in the book of Acts is the SAME Holy One of Israel. As God the Son, He was anointed with the oil of gladness, as that oil ran down the divine image of God the heaven’s rejoiced in the glory of God’s Great High Priest, Melchisedec, the Son of God. But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil (Psalm 92:10). There are several Scriptures that tie in the oil of gladness.

â—Ź Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face. (Psalm 89:14)
Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance. (Psalm 89:15)
In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted. (Psalm 89:16)
For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted. (Psalm 89:17)
For the LORD is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king. (Psalm 89:18)
â—Ź Also I will make him my firstborn, higher than the kings of the earth. (Psalm 89:27)
â—Ź But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. (Hebrews 1:8)
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. (Hebrews 1:9)
â—Ź O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. (Psalm 25:2)
Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. (Psalm 25:3)
Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths. (Psalm 25:4)
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. (Psalm 25:5)
Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old. (Psalm 25:6)
Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness’ sake, O LORD. (Psalm 25:7)
Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way. (Psalm 25:8)
â—Ź God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet. (Psalm 47:5)
â—Ź Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises. (Psalm 47:6)
For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding. (Psalm 47:7)
God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness. (Psalm 47:8)
The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted. (Psalm 47:9)

   These are the diversities of operations. These are the diverse manners and sundry times, but it is the SAME GOD that worketh ALL IN ALL. The Spirit of God is a divine witness to us. He is declaring ONE DIVINE BEING in both the Old and New Testaments. The last time that Holy One is mentioned in Scripture is the Holy Ghost giving us assurance in our Savior in 1st John 2:20. But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
   To the babes who desire the sincere milk of the holy word of God, the Lord Jesus sent the Spirit of Truth to lead us into ALL truth.

â—Ź And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; (John 14:16)
Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. (John 14:17)
I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. (John 14:18)
â—Ź Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. (John 16:13)
He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. (John 16:14)

  The Holy Ghost is the ONLY Comforter to those who are born of the Spirit of life IN Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. (Romans 8:2) The unction from the Holy One is permanent, it NEVER leaves, and by having that unction from the Holy One we fine comfort in the word of God. By the knowledge of the holy, we declare the wonders of the Holy One, the Prince of peace. As God the Father sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, this is a divine act in our salvation. Man CANNOT give the Spirit of Christ, only God the Father can send the Spirit of His Son into our hearts. And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. (Galatians 4:6) This gives us communion with the Spirit of Christ WITHIN us, and it opens the door whereby we can joyfully cry to God the Father. It is the Holy One who has sent the Spirit of truth to guide and teach us the divine ways of God. Man cannot teach holy things about the Holy One. Only Christ is the True Teacher, the True Witness of God. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God. (Revelation 3:14)
   In the book of Acts, the Holy One is mentioned THREE times. Each time it is in reference to our wonderful Savior, Jesus Christ. He is NOT only the Holy One of Israel, but He is the Fulfiller of ALL the promises that He gave to Abraham, and ALL the promises in the New Testament that He has given to us. Abraham’s seed one day will be as the sands of the sea, AND His seed will be as the stars of heaven. God revealed the permanency of these promises by using simple grains of sand, then connecting the grains of sand to the great expanse of the sea. So even when man looks down he can see the multitude of sand and when man looks up he can see the expanse of the stars of heaven and thus, the permanency of the promises of heaven are seen. God gives us the promises within His Son. The first Chapter of the book of Hebrews presents the Son of God, Heir of ALL things. Romans 8 presents our joint heirship with Jesus Christ. This is IN the ONE who made the worlds. Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he ose hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds. (Hebrews 1:2) To those who refuse to glorify the Lord Jesus as GOD, they fail to see the eternality of the Son of God that HE IS THE CREATOR OF ALL THINGS, and He is the Upholder of ALL things. He is the majesty over the entire creation of God.
   In Hebrews 1:2, it is the worlds (plural), this ALSO brings in the world to come. The Lord Jesus Christ who came from heaven’s glory to dwell among Adam’s race, a heavenly transcendent who is declared to be the brightness of God’s glory. He is the FULL radiance, the ABSOLUTE brightness in the PURITY of God’s holiness. He is the EXPRESS image of God’s Person made in the likeness of flesh in a specific Body that was prepared for Him to become the Lamb of God, and to take away the sin of the world. In this likeness of flesh, He upheld past, present and future, He upheld ALL things by the word of His power. His words were profound. Even as He spoke, as recorded in the gospels, men declared that never a man spake as this Man. He performed divine acts of love, and as the Lamb of God, He PURGED our sins, and then, in HIS glory He sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high. The highest Himself was made higher than the heavens. In His divine Priesthood, as Melchisedec, He was separate from sinners. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens. (Hebrews 7:26) This Melchisedec, the Son of God, was without mother and without father, but He was of heavenly descent. Melchisedec, the Lord Jesus, set aside His glorious garments of priesthood to take on the image of flesh. The sole reason for His coming into the world was to PURGE our sin. He as the PRIEST of the most high God became the divine sacrifice for NO descendent of Adam could ever take away the sin of the world and free man from the Law of Sin and Death. (Romans 8:2) In this wonderful personality, who was God’s dear Son, He was the divine PRIEST to offer up sacrifices up to God, and then He was Himself the Divine Sacrifice as the Lamb of God. Through the determinate counsels and foreknowledge of God, He set His face as flint DETERMINED to go to the brazen altar which was the cross on the mount of Calvary. He had grown up before God as a tender plant FULL of the righteousness of God, but He had come to a dry ground. He was IN the world, and the world was made by Him, yet the world knew Him not. They still have no understanding of their divine Creator. The Creator of Israel came to His own, the HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL walked among Israel to be their Deliverer, to be their KING, to be their GOD, and they cast their God out of the world. When the Lord Jesus declared that IT WAS FINISHED, He had given ALL of Himself to defeat sin and death and the works of the devil. When Joseph of Arimathaea and Nicodemus took the Body of Jesus, they took the Body, the Victor’s Body, the Body of the great high Priest that had offered the sacrifice of Himself, the Body of the Highest Himself (Psalm 87) which was then in the darkness of death. In that darkness He was working out the will of His Father. Before His resurrection He received His reward for the darkness He suffered in death. The LIFE that was IN Him was NEVER extinguished. He WENT into death to destroy death by His glorious life.

â—Ź The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; (Isaiah 61:1)
To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; (Isaiah 61:2)
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. (Isaiah 61:3)
â—Ź Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power. (Ephesians 3:7)
Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; (Ephesians 3:8)
And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: (Ephesians 3:9)
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, (Ephesians 3:10)
According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: (Ephesians 3:11)
In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. (Ephesians 3:12)
Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory. (Ephesians 3:13)
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, (Ephesians 3:14)
â—Ź Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: (Philippians 2:5)
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: (Philippians 2:6)
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: (Philippians 2:7)
And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. (Philippians 2:8)
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: (Philippians 2:9)
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; (Philippians 2:10)
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:11)
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. (Philippians 2:12)
For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. (Philippians 2:13)
â—Ź For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: (1st Peter 3:18)
By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; (1st Peter 3:19)
Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. (1st Peter 3:20)
The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: (1st Peter 3:21)
Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. (1st Peter 3:22)

  The mysteries that still wait in the treasure chest of the Spirit of God, will one day be revealed to those of His calling who walk NOT in the counsels of the ungodly, but walk IN the righteousness IN the Son of God to fulfill the will of God the Father and to do His good pleasure. We, those of His calling, will stand NOT in the presence of sinners, but separate ourselves and continue to embrace the path of righteousness with our feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace with God. We will NOT sit in the seat of the scornful as they deny the godliness of our Lord Jesus Christ. We have and have always had an infallible Man from heaven who has also given to us the infallible word of God.

Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: (Ephesians 2:2)
Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. (Ephesians 2:3)
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, (Ephesians 2:4)
Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) (Ephesians 2:5)
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: (Ephesians 2:6)

   In our new birth, God has raised us up and made us sit together in heavenly places IN Christ Jesus. You could say, since we are born again, since ALL things have become new to us that God our Father has linked us to the world with His divine message of the gospel of His dear Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. When the Spirit of God uses the title Christ Jesus, it is in relationship to those heavenly places. It is the title of the Anointed One of God with the oil of gladness. As He was anointed as Melchisedec, the great High Priest of God the joy that was set before Him in the determinate counsels of God allowed Him to endure the cross, to suffer the shame, to be beaten of men, and to take on the sin of the whole world. The Lord Jesus Christ became the cleansing Stone that the builders refused. He gave Himself, the God of glory, so that the once enemies of God, as Paul, and as us, will sit down WITH Him in His glory. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. (Revelation 3:21) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. (Revelation 3:22)
  How wonderful is His love towards us and as an individual, how wonderful is His love towards me. I can only say as a little child, Thank you Lord Jesus Christ. I delight in the Law of the Lord written on the pages of my heart so that I can meditate on the love of the Lord day and night. The word of God becomes the breath of God with the very life of God and within its pages it becomes the Law of Life, and the canon of Scripture becomes our dwelling place in an ungodly world.
   Peter proclaimed to the Lord Jesus, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. For us today, we have those words of eternal life before us in the word of God breathed by the Eternal Word Himself. This was a one time question in Scripture that Peter asked, Lord, to whom shall we go? There is no other Person in Scripture who asked that question. Do you see the majesty in that question. There is NO other place to find eternal life but in the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ. That question is found in John 6:68. Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. This is a question that the Spirit of God has placed within the divine pages of the word of God. Peter asked this one time question, and then gave the answer to himself, and that answer is only found ONE time in all of Scripture . . . thou (speaking of Christ) hast the words of eternal life.
   God the Holy Spirit simplifies the question that all men should ask and then gives the simplicity in the answer. Can we lay hold of this truth as we meditate on and in the word of God? It is evident that not all words all equal. The Holy Spirit of God takes words and arranges them to put forth the knowledge of the holy to lead us into all truth as we follow the path of righteousness IN the Lord Jesus Christ. The phrase paths of righteousness is only mentioned once in Scripture. restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. (Psalm 23:3) He restoreth my soul . . . again, the Holy Spirit only uses that phrase one time in Scripture. The collector of earthly goods finds a one time treasure, there is only one of that treasure in all of the world, so when the Holy Spirit mentions one of His treasures ONE TIME in all of Scripture, we need to lay hold of the importance of that one time mention for the Holy Spirit is emphasizing that truth to make these truths part of us. The Holy Spirit of God uses ‘word geometry,’ this is the way that the Spirit of God builds understanding not only with numbers in their proper order, but words in their proper order. It is amazing how many ONE TIME words and ONE TIME phrases are used in Scripture. By the uniqueness of their use ONLY ONE TIME God leads us in the paths of righteousness, that can ONLY happen after our soul has been restored. This path of righteousness can only be found in Jesus Christ. But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption. (1st Corinthians 1:30)
   Little children, I write unto you to sup on the word of God, both the Living Word and the Written Word. There is a glorified heavenly MAN in heaven for us. This heavenly MAN has a heartbeat. He has a supernatural and glorified Body that was PREPARED for Him. The work of His sacrifice is past, and as the Good Shepherd He is gathering in His sheep. The God of glory has committed to us the word of His patience to minister to the children of God and to call out into the world the Voice of the Spirit of Truth. Our authority is sealed by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Hebrews 9:14)
   The authority of the Lord Jesus Christ is beyond understanding for God the Father entrusted to Him that which has been and that which is to come. And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, (Ephesians 1:22) Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. (Ephesians 1:23) God the Father has put ALL things under His feet, and God the Father has given HIM to be the HEAD over all things to and in the Church, which is His Body: the fullness of Him that filleth ALL in ALL. In Ephesians Chapter 1:22 and 23, we have a blessing to the whole Church of Christ. The WHOLE BODY of believers are seen by Christ as UNITED together. His BLOOD has covered their sin and guilt with that oil of GLADNESS. He has filled our hearts, so that we can rest our heads on the bosom of God. We have been anointed with the JOY of the Lord. We stand with ALL the redeemed on the spiritual mount of glory. When I pray for you, I realize that we are miles apart, continents apart, we are separated by social differences and by different cultures, but if we belong to the Lord Jesus Christ we are bond together with Jesus Christ and the Spirit of LIFE which is IN Christ Jesus, the Anointed of God. By filling us with His Spirit, He UNITES US all over the world in that same Spirit. As He draws every child to the center of ALL IN ALL, no matter where we stand on this earth, my spirit goes with your spirit as we stand in the Spirit of Christ. It gives us the pleasure when we consider our Great Savior what we STAND IN HIM, the ALL IN ALL. We have been reborn by the Spirit of Christ. Since the Lord Jesus was caught up into heaven, and the band of Nicolaitans rose up against the truth they have increased during the past centuries, and they have robbed us of divine truths. But in the end of this Age, as the hour glass empties of the sands of time, we lay hold of divine truths. When Christ, that holy thing, the holy child, the Holy One, the Holy One of Israel walked here on earth in the Body that was prepared for Him, He was and still is ALL IN ALL. He stopped the time of sin in the fullness of time. He drank the FULL cup of God’s wrath against Him.

â—Ź Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. (Luke 22:42)
And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. (Luke 22:43)
And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. (Luke 22:44)
And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, (Luke 22:45)
And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. (Luke 22:46)
â—Ź If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour. (John 12:26)
Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. (John 12:27)
Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. (John 12:28)
â—Ź These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: (John 17:1)
As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. (John 17:2)
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. (John 17:3)
I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. (John 17:4)
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. (John 17:5)

   It is evident that we are on holy ground. We need to see the standing that we have in Christ. The Bodily presence of Christ ascended UP into heaven. The manifestation of the Christ of God appeared in heaven, as a GLORIFIED HEAVENLY MAN. His place is set as He sits at the right hand of the Majesty on high. God the Father says of His Son, by His knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for He shall bear their iniquities. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. (Isaiah 53:11)
   In the rebellion that took place in heaven with Lucifer the anointed cherub, God proclaimed that he was perfect in thy ways from the day that he was created till iniquity was found in him, and by the multitude of his merchandise, they filled the midst of him with violence and he had sinned. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. (Ezekiel 28:15) By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. (Ezekiel 28:15) 
   We should see this formula that was found in Lucifer and was passed on to Adam at the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The very character of Lucifer in his iniquities and sin passed into the heart of man (Adam) when Adam partook of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Then Adam became subject to the Law of Sin and Death. That which was NOT in Christ was placed upon Christ, both sin and iniquity as Christ drank the full cup of the wrath of God. Now with the LAW of God’s righteousness, He fills the fullness of heaven. (Revelation Chapter 4 and 5) It is the Lord Jesus Christ who fills ALL IN ALL. We have this unction from the Holy One in heaven to lead us into all TRUTH. Now the spirit of this world does not want us to embrace the TRUTHS of God. They do not want us to use the word infallible, but He who fills ALL IN ALL IS THE INFALLIBLE. What He gives to man in salvation is INFALLIBLE. To grow in Christ, He gives His HOLY and INFALLIBLE word. The word of His power cannot be broken whether it be heaven or earth, His WORD STANDS FOREVER. Heaven and earth will pass away, but the word of God will never perish.

The ONE who is ALL IN ALL
Created, Determined, and Planned
REDEMPTION

   Just as the human race has its generations, there are generations of the word of God. The divine Wordsmith has given His word and preserves His word to feed His sheep in the eternal generation of Christ. The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. (Matthew 1:1) This is an ETERNAL generation filled through time by FAITH. I am in the same generation as Abel who offered a more excellent sacrifice. You should understand that the words that God spoke to Abel and Abel obeyed those words for Abel’s time and for Abel’s needs. So that Abel, through FAITH, could offer a more excellent sacrifice and fully understand the terms and the conditions of THAT sacrifice in the word of God. He offered a more excellent sacrifice, again, a more excellent sacrifice is only mentioned ONE time in Scripture. Pay attention to what the Holy Spirit of God is telling us in Hebrews 11:4. By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. One of the truths that has been hidden from the world and from the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is that there is ONE generation of believers. They span the entire time frame of mankind, they are linked together through that more excellent sacrifice when Christ OFFERED HIMSELF on Calvary’s cross as the PERFECT LAMB of God. CLICK HERE for more about the more excellent sacrifice.
   Abel, through FAITH, believed in that sacrifice. He knew that his offering ascended up to God and was a preview of the DIVINE SACRIFICE to come. Abel had little background sight in the history of mankind. He was the second child born of a woman; born into the dominion of sin that his father (Adam) had brought into the world. And yet, God revealed to Abel a time when God Himself would offer a more excellent sacrifice IN the Son of God. Today, we with all the pages of Scripture placed before us, with all the words of God that He has breathed upon us, we stumble, we fall, and instead of walking upright, WE CRAWL. I tell you of a truth: Christ IN you is the hope of glory that you will stand before God NOT in your own glory but in the glory of the Son of God.
   Job was a man who walked upright. He KNEW the strength of his calling. He KNEW the power of his God. He KNEW that his body would fail and would become dust, and he KNEW that God would raise him up to STAND in heavenly places among all the redeemed.

â—Ź There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. (Job 1:1)
â—Ź And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? (Job 1:8)
â—Ź And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause. (Job 2:3)

   In the first two Chapters of the book of Job, God magnifies His servant, for Job had a heart of FAITH filled with He who fills ALL in ALL. In all of Job’s trials, he magnified his Creator, and he trusted His God, His INFALLIBLE God, and although he slay me, yet will I trust Him. Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. (Job 13:15) He also shall be my salvation: (Job 13:16) Think who has placed YOU in His eternal salvation. It is He who FILLETH ALL IN ALL. If you truly let HIM into your heart, Christ will NOT be denied, He will lead you into all TRUTH. This is one of the fullest promises that Christ gave to ALL of His disciples that they would have a spiritual understanding, a spiritual enlightening in the word of God. He will also give you spiritual taste buds so that you can spit out the lies of this world, and not digest the bitterness of those lies. How do I know this? I know this because God has given me those taste buds, and to assure me that they are real, He gives me an example of His own taste buds in Revelation Chapter 3 when HE spews Laodicea out of His mouth. I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. (Revelation 3:15) So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. (Revelation 3:16)
   The indwelling of the Spirit of God weighs ALL the words you speak, and ALL the words that you hear. This gives you the ability to understand the world around you that Adam’s race, ALL of Adam’s race, are the enemies of Christ, even those who are redeemed BEFORE they were born of God and given a new life IN Christ were once enemies of the ONE who gave Himself for them. That’s the heaviest part of our salvation, that ONCE we were enemies of God, who loved us and gave Himself for us. But NOW the Spirit of God gives us comfort because God has raised us up to sit in heavenly places. He has given us an unction and an understanding in both heavenly things which are holy, and earthly things which are unholy. Christ is the HEAD of the BODY of His Church. God let’s NO person IN between THAT HEAD, Jesus Christ, and those who are born again.
   What we see today has all risen in the generation of Adam. ALL the extravagant and ostentatious buildings, and the elegant rich robes of the Nicolaitans have covered the eyes of the world with THEIR traditions and THEIR unholy works in manmade religions. If you don’t understand that Christ is the HEAD of your salvation, if you don’t understand that Christ is the HEAD of HIS Church, if you don’t understand that Christ is the HEAD of your being then something is eternally wrong with your soul.
   The gospel is the most profound message that the world has ever heard. It needs to be delivered with reverence and godly fear. The gospel is not an entertaining subject. It is not the bells and whistles of the world of entertainment. The gospel MUST bring the heart to the very end of one’s self. One must see themselves as the unclean beast before a LIVING and RIGHTEOUS GOD. The world speaks of themselves, that is where discernment must come in: weigh the world, weigh your church, weigh yourself against the word of God. The world and the modern church speak of themselves and what they have done. We speak of Christ and what HE has done for us. It is HE who fills ALL IN ALL.

These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. (2nd Peter 2:17)
For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. (2nd Peter 2:18)
While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. (2nd Peter 2:19)
For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. (2nd Peter 2:20)
For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. (2nd Peter 2:21)
But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. (2nd Peter 2:22)

   These are those who sit under a corrupt fig tree of religion. They only think of themselves, and they built edifices to themselves. They will throw their riches at the feet of the Nicolaitans and corrupt religions thinking that they are buying the pleasures of God. Yet, they do not have the things of Christ, especially eternal redemption and peace with God. They have defiled the holy things of God, they themselves reject the holy truths found in the word of God. They dilute the truths of God by their ungodly sayings. Their messages are NOT peace with God, but peace with the world in all its corruption. They lay aside the word of God, that holy child and the Holy One who is Christ for the unclean things of the world and for the religious things around them. Those who vehemently profess and protect their religion have NO holy oil within themselves, their lamps lack holy oil and they walk in darkness and not in the LIGHT. The joy of the Lord is NOT in church attendance. The joy of the Lord is IN Jesus Christ Himself. In the twelfth Chapter in the book of Hebrews we have a marvelous truth that before the world was, BEFORE creation began by the Voice of the Lord Jesus Christ in the determinate counsels of God, God DESIGNED His work of redemption and in that work of redemption the divine Sacrifice would be His Son. In this plan of redemption, Christ would KNOW in the foreknowledge of God HIS PART in the redemption of those whom the Father would give to Him. He KNEW the sufferings that HE would endure, but HE also KNEW the JOY of the new heavens and the new earth and all of His redeemed where righteousness would dwell and that there would be NO SIN. Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, (Hebrews 12:1) Looking unto 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. (Hebrews 12:2)
   The Lord in His parables over and over talked about the two separate worlds, one world of His own had His Light IN them, the other part of the world embraced darkness. He referred to His own as sheep at His right hand, and He referred to the world as the goats at His left hand that would perish in eternal judgment. Those goats at His left hand know not the Spirit of Truth which is IN Christ Jesus our Lord. They are wells of bitter water flowing through the doors of empty buildings of the Spirit of God. The Church is NOT a building, and yet, the question that goes out is what building do you attend? The Church is NOT a building. It is a flock. The Church has never been material of this world. The Church is a Supernatural Spiritual organism built with the just souls of man and maintained and covered with the blood and Spirit of Christ. The great redemptive plan of God was lovingly and righteously centered around the glory of God and the fullness of the Godhead Bodily who is ALL IN ALL.

FEAR NOT because
CHRIST is ALL IN ALL

   Fear not is mentioned by the Lord Jesus Christ SIX times in the gospels and once in the book of Revelation for a total of SEVEN times. (Matthew 10:28; Luke 5:10, 8:50, 12:7, 12:32, 18:4; Revelation 1:17) Should I? Well, OK, here we go . . .

➤ 1. In Matthew 10:28, And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. The Lord Jesus emphasizes that it is GOD who holds the souls of man in His hands. No matter what you think, your eternal soul belongs to God. Whether among the redeemed or the unredeemed, God is the Divine Authority over you soul, and you cannot change that divine truth. Consider Psalm 139 and pay attention to verses 14, 15 and 16.

I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. (Psalm 139:14)
My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. (Psalm 139:15)
Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. (Psalm 139:16)

   Here is the eternal Creator of souls and God is the ETERNAL MASTER of souls. The unregenerate world wants to hide this from you. Both the world and religion of man deny the eternal existence of the soul. Here is a TRUTH that the eternal plot of God, those whom the Father has given to the Lord Jesus Christ, those souls were chosen of God BEFORE the world was formed. They are God’s ELECT and it is the Father’s GOOD PLEASURE to give them the kingdom.
➤ 2. Now, little ones, let’s go to Luke 5:10, And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. This Fear not in Luke 5:10 was not only given to His present disciples, but it also encompasses us today. Peter replied to the Lord’s command, And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. (Luke 5:5) But then we have the Master, the MASTER OF ALL IN ALL. He told Peter and also us to cast the net on the RIGHT SIDE of His throne, and IN Him, we enter into ALL IN ALL. Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. The net that we cast into the world is the everlasting gospel, it is the same yesterday, it is the same today, and it will be the same throughout all eternity. And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people. (Revelation 14:6) We cast this net into all the world, and to them that dwell on the earth. This net will not break for it is the Lord who FILLS ALL IN ALL.

➤ 3. Let us now consider Luke 8:50, But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole. This FEAR NOT surrounds DEATH, but not only death, it surrounds unbelief and skepticism. This verses follows mankind throughout their entire history; that they FEAR the last moment of life; they FEAR DEATH as the finality of their existence in their unbelief they have nothing to hold onto. The following is the narrative of a ruler of a synagogue by the name of Jairus and his twelve year old daughter.

â—Ź And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus’ feet, and besought him that he would come into his house: (Luke 8:41)
For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him. (Luke 8:42)
â—Ź While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master. (Luke 8:49)
But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole. (Luke 8:50)
And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden. (Luke 8:51)
And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. (Luke 8:52)
And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. (Luke 8:53) And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. (Luke 8:54)
And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat. (Luke 8:55)

   Yet God in His divine wisdom and His divine redemption has given man an opportunity to overcome death. It is interesting that when you put SIN and DEATH together, man does NOT fear TODAY to SIN, but man FEARS the finality of that SIN IN his death. But the power of resurrection, the power of the Spirit of life is IN BELIEF . . . BELIEF in the Lord Jesus Christ. With His power of resurrection and eternal life there is nothing impossible with God. The words fear not is surrounded by the death of this maiden. The Lord Jesus proclaimed, believe only, and she shall be made whole. Believe only, and so shall it be.
   The Lord of resurrection, speaking to Martha, proclaimed whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? She answered, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world. Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: (John 11:25) And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? (John 11:26) She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world. (John 11:27)
    Back to Jairus and his daughter. At the words, Maid, arise, she arose and He took her by the hand. These two words Maid, arise are also seen in Scripture ONE TIME. This is the word of His power. He took her by the hand as guiding her back from the darkness of death, and through His divine Spirit He called her spirit back from the darkness. This was to show mankind the POWER of the Son of God sent down from heaven. This power of LIFE that was IN Christ Jesus would be known among men, and yet, there was UNBELIEF and scepticism all around Him. Those who belong to the Lord Jesus Christ, this is what you should hear in your hearts, FEAR NOT, he that liveth and believeth in me, shall NEVER DIE, believeth thou this? He is waiting for the answer, Yea, Lord, I BELIEVE.
➤ 4. In Luke 12:7 we read, But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. The foxes have holes, the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of man had no place to lay His head. The manifestation of God IN the Lord Jesus Christ could find NO place in His own creation to lay His head, to get complete rest. He was a foreign entity in the world that He had made. In this verse, Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows, there are MANY sparrows. The phrase many sparrows is recorded only twice in Scripture. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. (Matthew 10:31) But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. (Luke 12:7) Through this double documentation the number of witness is tied to the words FEAR NOT twice; thus, and therefore, and consequently the Spirit of God stressed FEAR NOT . . . FEAR NOT.

    Now let’s examine the number of sparrows. The phrase two sparrows is only mentioned ONE TIME in all of Scripture, and the phrase five sparrows is only mentioned ONCE in all of Scripture. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. (Matthew 10:29) Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? (Luke 12:6) They are linked with the words FEAR NOT because your value is more than many sparrows. In all of Scripture, in ALL of His creation, God SEES and COUNTS all the numbers. He numbers the stars, He numbers ALL the sparrows, the names in the Book of Life are all numbered. The hairs upon the heads of man are all numbered by the ONE who FILLS ALL IN ALL. We have MORE VALUE before the Almighty God than MANY sparrows. Though the sparrow is small, population wise they are of greater number than the larger birds of prey. If we could compare this statement ye are of more value than many sparrows, we see the VALUE that Christ placed upon the sparrows. He could have said, Ye are of more value than 100 talents of gold, or 200 talents of silver, but the words comparing SPARROWS was greater to the Lord Jesus then the gold and silver of the world.
   This is the mindset of the Spirit of Christ for the VALUE of His redeemed. For you have VALUE with God Almighty, He has purchased you with His greatest price, His very own blood. This was DIVINE BLOOD, NOT the blood of Adam. Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. (Acts 20:28) This price that was paid for our redemption sets the price of our redemption ABOVE all the treasures of the earth. What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul? There is a value set to God’s blood that can only be measured by the eternal life that it gives. He that liveth and believeth in me shall NEVER DIE.
➤ 5. Now onto Luke 12:32. When Christ referred to the ones who followed Him, He used the words little flock. Once again, these two words little flock are only mentioned ONCE in Scripture. Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. (Luke 12:32) Although the word flock is mentioned 111 times in Scripture, the phrase little flock is only mentioned ONE time. Look what surrounds this little flock, they are NOT to fear for Christ has made peace for them.
   It is God’s PLEASURE to give them a KINGDOM, but all this pleasure and kingdom is IN His SON JESUS CHRIST, who for the joy that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising the shame and has now sat down at the right hand of God. Psalm 22 gives us the inner voice of Christ and His sufferings on the cross, and what He endured on the cross gave us our passports to heaven to a new land, a new country, a new city. But we are not just dwellers in the kingdom of God, the Bible proclaims that we are JOINT-HEIRS with God’s dear Son, who is the HEIR of ALL THINGS that fills ALL IN ALL. The words to give you the kingdom are also ONLY found ONCE in Scripture.
   The Spirit of God reveals these things and their importance to those who have been redeemed by the blood of Christ. Even numbers in the location of this verse Luke 12:32 are numbers of importance. One (1) the number of God, the number of His holiness; Two (2) is the number of witness, both the Lord Jesus Christ and God the Father relate to the little flock, Fear not, it is God’s pleasure IN Christ Jesus to give you the kingdom. The number THREE (3) is the number of the GODHEAD, all three have witnessed to man in the eternal truth of God. Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. (John 3:11)Then we have a repeat of the number two and we find that Christ, the Son of God, is the LAST (the AMEN) and the FAITHFUL and the TRUE witness of God. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; (Revelation 3:14) There is one more jewel found in this verse in Luke 12. It is the crown and the jewel of the LIVING word of God. It is God the Father’s pleasure, GOOD PLEASURE, for we find the goodness of God in the Lord Jesus Christ. God the Father declared that this is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. Do you see the good pleasure there? that the Father’s perfection, His pleasure was IN His beloved Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, your Savior. It is the Father’s GOOD PLEASURE to give you the kingdom, and the words Father’s good pleasure only appears ONCE in Scripture. These jewels are monumental stones on your FAITH. The Spirit of God puts these jewels in Scripture so that through FAITH and the belief that is within you, the world cannot move you from the center of your affection IN the Bridegroom, the Lord Jesus Christ. But this does not end the voice of the Spirit of Truth.
➤ 6. Let us now go to Luke 18:4, And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man. This takes place in the surroundings of the unjust judge, which there are many of today. A judge that FEARED NOT God and a poor widow looking for justice cried out day by day. Does not wisdom cry? She troubled this judge and he finally gave in. This is the sixth time the phrase fear not is mentioned and it is tied to man in his unbelief, and a judge that feared NOT God. The number six is the number of man, and the gospel of Luke is the gospel of the Son of man. This judge in Luke 18 was in a straight for he feared not God. All he had to do was to listen to the Psalmist in 2:10 and 12.

â—Ź Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. (Psalm 2:10)
â—Ź Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. (Psalm 2:11)
â—Ź Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. (Psalm 2:12)

   All judges and rulers should FEAR the Lord. Although men might put judges and rulers in power, judges are under divine authority. A Higher Judge, the JUDGE of the whole earth requires JUST JUDGMENT from them. That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right? (Genesis 18:25) Now the Divine Judge, the JUDGE of all the earth will avenge His own.

â—Ź And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? (Luke 18:7)
I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? (Luke 18:8)
â—Ź And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: (Revelation 6:9)
And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? (Revelation 6:10)
And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. (Revelation 6:11)
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; (Revelation 6:12)

   In verse 9 of Chapter 6, we have the number of finality, the LAST SINGLE DIGIT and it takes place at the opening of the FIFTH seal, and the number five is the number of GRACE. And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: (Revelation 6:9) Here you see the SOULS of men who had been killed for the word of God UNDER the altar crying out to the JUDGE of all the earth. He declared that they should rest for a little while for the JUDGE of ALL the earth will take a count of all those who have slain His children from the soul of righteous Abel to the last soul that is slain under the kingdom of The Beast. The number six in this Chapter represents mankind, and at the end of this Chapter, man is judged by the WRATH of the Lamb that was slain. We see under the altar a place of refuge for these souls who had been slain. In the Old Testament, the brazen altar and the altar of incense were both sanctified with the blood of the sacrifice.

â—Ź And thou shalt make an altar of shittim wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and the height thereof shall be three cubits. (Exodus 27:1)
And thou shalt make the horns of it upon the four corners thereof: his horns shall be of the same: and thou shalt overlay it with brass. (Exodus 27:2)
And thou shalt make his pans to receive his ashes, and his shovels, and his basons, and his fleshhooks, and his firepans: all the vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass. (Exodus 27:3)
And thou shalt make for it a grate of network of brass; and upon the net shalt thou make four brasen rings in the four corners thereof. (Exodus 27:4)
And thou shalt put it under the compass of the altar beneath, that the net may be even to the midst of the altar. (Exodus 27:5)
And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with brass. (Exodus 27:6)
And the staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear it. (Exodus 27:7)
Hollow with boards shalt thou make it: as it was shewed thee in the mount, so shall they make it. (Exodus 27:8)
â—Ź And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. (Exodus 29:11)
And thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock, and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger, and pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar. (Exodus 29:12)
And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul that is above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and burn them upon the altar. (Exodus 29:13)
But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin, and his dung, shalt thou burn with fire without the camp: it is a sin offering. (Exodus 29:14)
â—Ź Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood. (Hebrews 9:18)
For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, (Hebrews 9:19)
Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. (Hebrews 9:20)
Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. (Hebrews 9:21)
And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (Hebrews 9:22)
It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. (Hebrews 9:23)
For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: (Hebrews 9:24)
Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; (Hebrews 9:25)
For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. (Hebrews 9:26)
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27)
So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. (Hebrews 9:28)

   Every article of the Tabernacle within was sanctified by the blood of the sacrifice. Both the brazen altar in the courtyard (the courtyard symbolized the unclean world) and the laver at the door of the tent of the congregation were ALL sanctified by blood. This prepared ALL the articles for the glory of God to fill the sanctuary with HIMSELF, and this is why we read in 2nd Corinthians Chapter 4, verse 6, that through the blood of His sacrifice we are sanctified and, in that sanctification, we see the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
➤ 7. Let us now consider Revelation 1:17 and 18. And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: (Revelation 1:17) I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. (Revelation 1:18) This is the last time in Scripture that we see the phrase Fear not. Yet, the Lord is revealing Himself as the Alpha and the Omega which is the Beginning and the End. He is the beginning of the creation of God, and He is going to bring that creation to its very END. It is HE who FILLS ALL IN ALL. He is the COMPLETENESS of the Son of God seen throughout the entire word of God AND upheld by the word of His power. The WORD which is the sword of His Spirit, the divine words out of the mouth of the Living God, not only on earth, but now His voice speaks from heaven. It is HE who was dead, and behold, He is alive forever more. He has the keys of hell and of death. He has the POWER of an endless life that He gives to ALL of His redeemed. FEAR NOT hell and death for His blood sacrifice has cleansed you and you are prepared for an endless life. This is interesting, in this last FEAR NOT, it is to take away the FEAR of hell and death. It comes from He who was dead and behold, He is ALIVE for ever more and fills ALL IN ALL.

THE ONE WHO IS ALL IN ALL
Defeated SIN and DEATH

   Now our last verse that relates to Christ being ALL IN ALL, there will come a time in the UNSEEN cosmos when ALL things will be subdued IN Christ Jesus. And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. (1st Corinthians 12:6) Heaven and earth shall pass away and God will make new heavens and a new earth wherein righteousness dwells.

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. (2nd Peter 3:10)

Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, (2nd Peter 3:11)
Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? (2nd Peter 3:12)
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. (2nd Peter 3:13)
Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. (2nd Peter 3:14)

~

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. (1st Corinthians 15:22)
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming. (1st Corinthians 15:23)
Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. (1st Corinthians 15:24)
For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. (1st Corinthians 15:25)
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. (1st Corinthians 15:26)
For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. (1st Corinthians 15:27)
And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. (1st Corinthians 15:28)

   The Lord Jesus will subdue all His enemies; however, this world will NOT be changed to a better world. This world will be dissolved by fire and God will begin a NEW CREATION. In this new creation there will be NO room for SIN and DEATH. In the seventh day, when God had created the heavens and the earth, He saw ALL His works and proclaimed that they were GOOD. At that point, SIN AND DEATH had not yet come into the world. The curse of God had not yet been given. Sin had ravaged heaven under the rebellion of Lucifer. Earth had come under the rebellion of Adam, and the creation had fallen into the dark shadows of sin. Even the Lord Jesus declared that heaven and earth shall pass away.

â—Ź Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. (Matthew 24:35)
â—Ź Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. (Mark 13:31)
â—Ź Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. (Luke 21:33)
  We also have the witness of the Spirit of Truth in 2nd Peter 3:10 and Revelation 21:1-7.

â—Ź But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. (2nd Peter 3:10)
â—Ź And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. (Revelation 21:1)
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. (Revelation 21:2)
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. (Revelation 21:3)
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. (Revelation 21:4)
And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. (Revelation 21:5)
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. (Revelation 21:6)
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. (Revelation 21:7)

    Here is our plight: all the descendants of Adam have never known a world without SIN and DEATH. Sin affects EVERY aspect of our lives. We are at WAR with SIN every day. To this point in the history of man, sin still brings forth death. It is ONLY the Lord Jesus who has overcome death, and ONLY HE has the keys of hell and death.

â—Ź I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. (Revelation 1:18)
â—Ź Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; (Hebrews 2:14)
And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. (Hebrews 2:15)

   Our blessed Lord Jesus Christ pulled the teeth of sin and death on the cross of Calvary, the place of the skull, Golgotha, Calvary was God GREATEST conquest and victory. CLICK HERE for more about the place of the skull. He defeated SIN and DEATH and the works of the devil. The GREATEST defeat brought the GREATEST victory. The battle that began in heaven, then continued on to earth, and throughout its entire history has in these last days been finalized in the fullness of time. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself proclaimed, IT IS FINISHED. The End of all things was accomplished. This ALL took place in God’s way of redemption, not man’s way. Christ ascended into heaven a glorified Savior, a glorified Son of man, God the Father had given the Lord Jesus one of His last requests, GLORIFY me with the glory that I had with thee BEFORE the world was.

â—Ź And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. (John 17:5)
â—Ź But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, (Acts 7:55)
â—Ź And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. (Acts 7:56)

   We should also see or consider the Old Testament.

I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. (Daniel 7:13)
And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. (Daniel 7:14)
I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me. (Daniel 7:15)
I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things. (Daniel 7:16)
These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth. (Daniel 7:17)
But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever. (Daniel 7:18)
Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet; (Daniel 7:19)
And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows. (Daniel 7:20)
I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; (Daniel 7:21)
Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. (Daniel 7:22)
Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. (Daniel 7:23)
And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. (Daniel 7:24)
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. (Daniel 7:25)
But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end. (Daniel 7:26)
And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. (Daniel 7:27)
Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart. (Daniel 7:28)

   As we consider these verses, we would not know these things unless GOD reveal them to us through the Scriptures and through His revelation through the entire word of God. For WHO of Adam’s race has ever known the mind of God? His thoughts and ways are beyond our thoughts and our ways. What we know of Him and what He knows of us has been revealed by Him, the Spirit of Truth. He is from everlasting to everlasting. The ONE who covers THE I AM THAT I AM is the Highest Himself, and He comes out of the UNSEEN to reveal Himself to the sons of men. He only reveals a part of Himself in His cloud of glory. In the past, He declared Himself through the prophets that He will create NEW HEAVENS and a NEW EARTH. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. (Isaiah 65:17)
   In the NEW EARTH, He will create the Eternal City of God, the NEW JERUSALEM.

â—Ź But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. (Isaiah 65:18)
â—Ź For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain. (Isaiah 66:22)

   But all things are complete in Christ including ALL that He had subdued. The Son of God will deliver ALL things to the Father that God may be ALL IN ALL from everlasting to everlasting. The pages of the Book, the word of God, shows forth the glory of the Father, and the glory of the Son and the glory of the Holy Spirit . . . Holy, Holy, Holy, God Almighty. To those who are under His wings of salvation, He is the ETERNAL GOD, He is thy shield and exceeding great reward. May the good Lord bless you this day.

His servant —–  M.C.H.

Amen and Selah
