TREADING THE WINEPRESS
We want to show you Christ at work at this time. We will link several scriptures from the Old and New Testaments to give you a picture of activity in the invisible world. The WORD of God contained in the written scriptures is a "scrambled" word-puzzle, Psalm 23:5, 50:16,21; Isaiah 28:9-10. I will not write out the texts for you at all times. This BREAD must B-READ. YOU must be prepared to do as Jesus said, "Search the scriptures for in them ye think ye have eternal life", John 5:39. Jesus is the WORD OF GOD; so dig through the pages of your Bible for treasure in the field.
We are still dealing with CHRIST DI-VINE and his grape cluster. "All the FRUIT OF THE VINE" is a message that JESUS TOOK AWAY THE SINS OF THE WORLD BY COVERING THEM AND DISCOUNTING THEM!
With God everything is today (an everlasting noonday of Most High light), and He never changes. We have been told "that there is nothing new under the sun", Ecclesiastes 1:9. This witness is true. We find that the RED-WORD-JESUS in John 5:22, 8:15, 16:8,11 exercising its potency in the Old Testament days before a very frustrated Balak, who was an advocate for the "Accuser of the brethren," while in the presence of the our Supreme Court Justice, God! While the darker Old Covenant held sway, this was just a peek at the light to be revealed by Christ....just to show you that our Father has never changed! Again in the New Testament of Jesus, we find him also as a "Judge" doing like the Father (John 5:22, 8:15) and by-passing condemnation of a woman caught in the very act of adultery, John 8:1-12. Let your mind follow their example! YOU must "learn of me"!....that our Father is "really that good" to His children. Now that you know the nature of GRAPE-JESUS, a good question to ask is "How can this message contain the fierceness of the wrath of God, and to whom is that wrath directed since men are excluded from it"? We shall learn the answer later in this letter. but let all who make themselves "lawyers" beware! You are a lawyer if you use the law to condemn and indite human beings, Luke 11:52. YOU do not know the Judge!
In order to have a treading of grapes, there must first be grapes to harvest. ALL THE FRUIT OF THE VINE is so scarce today that one almost never hears of it during his lifetime! But God does not need a great multitude of men to be effective. "One should chase a thousand and two would put ten thousand to flight", Deuteronomy 32:29-30. IT IS WITH RED-WINE-BLOOD THAT GOD PUNISHES SATAN, THE "PHARAOH" OF THE SPIRIT WORLD! Doctrines preached in the churches are from the "vine of Sodom and the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter: their wine is the poison of dragons and the cruel venom of asps", Deuteronomy 32:32-33. (This is from the Song of Moses as sung by those on the Sea of Glass, Revelation 15:3). So YOUR church doctrines have the wrong grapes and the wrong wine for God's use in spiritual warfare! But Jesus has stuffed himself into a "few" men and made mature CHRIST-CLUSTERS of them. Without him they could do nothing, John 15:5. In spiritual reality every man is a potential grape in the most carnal way with bodies loaded with blood. Even of these a harvest is required. These are cut out from among men and gathered to heaven by the reaping angels, Revelation 14:18-19. They are used in God's torture of the powers of darkness, Ephesians 6:12; Revelation 19:11-15. The winepress must be filled with BLOOD-WINE, Revelation 14:20. Notice something about this text. The BLOOD-WINE-WORD FLOWS "outside" of heaven in this earth. God's "horses for battle are men" and archangels, Hosea 10:11; Zechariah 6:1-5, 10:3,7. They all have WINE on their lips. The "bridles" in their mouths (BRIDE-EL = bride of God) are 144,000 Virgins who lead men. And Jesus rides these "horses".
Now let us go to our title, "Treading the Winepress" again. Since Christ-grapes are so rare and "few" in number on earth, Jesus himself takes care to personally tread the heads of those men designated to be his grapes, Isaiah 63:1-6. As you read that text in Isaiah, keep in mind that there are two kingdoms in this world, one on top of and within the other. I am speaking of the kingdom of men or God's "images" and the kingdom of invisible devils who possess us and have claimed our bodies as "their houses"! Matthew 12:43-45; Mark 9:1. Therefore the Word in Isaiah has "two-edges", (1) mighty salvation for ALL MANKIND, and (2) revenge in wrath for the invisible Egyptian spirits of "Pharaoh". NO ONE IS WITH JESUS TREADING GRAPES! When Jesus' foot pressures a grape-man's head, RED-WINE-WORD flows out of his mouth and pen. So it is indeed a very great honor to be personally visited by and used by Jesus himself....as rare as a grape cluster for treading.
Back at the winepress, we find Jesus in the Revelation having "stained all his raiment" with the WORD of his own grapes, Revelation 19:11,13,15. So by HIS-WORD HE MAKES WAR AGAINST THE POWERS OF DARKNESS. That same WINE-WORD which blesses man irreversibly (Genesis 12:3, as Balak and Balaam found out), also torments the powers of darkness with the other edge. Just think! All those ages and centuries of hard work by Satan to "rise above the stars of God" gone down the drain! Instead God made the stars rise above him! All because of One Person --- God Himself! Matthew 11:27; John 10:28-30. If you could only hear the pain in their vanquished voices saying, "We lost all those we thought we had...God is such a dirty so-and-so"! Romans 5:16-18, 6:23. To understand how the "wine message" hurts devils, you must go back and learn the nature of Satan's jealousy, his challenge, and his hope to force God to destroy His own children in the same condemnation reserved for Satan's family, Isaiah 14:12,21-22.
Let us review Satan's nature and his challenge. Satan was created to be the very opposite of God's nature. In fact he thought he was a "god"! Ezekiel 28:2,6,9. As God is good, Satan is evil. Envy jealousy, and never-ending hatred are all part of the devil's character. Jealousy first arose in him when he coveted the throne and glory of God. Isaiah 14:12-13. He was the first fornicator with his own mother, Babylon, when their crime produced the first of many bastard evil spirits. This is how Satan got his angels! After committing insurrection against God, Ezekiel 28:13-18, Satan was kicked out of heaven by Michael and his forces, and he was condemned for annihilation. In hell he challenged God vowing to destroy God's children and prove that we are no better than he is. God took the dare and salted His children in the earth as all the generations of men. Deuteronomy 32:8; Psalm 87; Hosea 1:10. Using the law which was made for him, Satan forced men as his "slaves" into violations, Ezekiel 25:5-6,11; Matthew 11:12; II Timothy 2:26. He is the mentor of all condemning lawyers, Romans 8:31-32,34; II Corinthians 3:5-12. So revenge is also a cause for demonic attacks against men, Revelation 12:7-9,12-13. Therefore every child conceived by man is an automatic target for revenge, because Satan knows better than man that all men are God's offsprings, Psalm 82:6-8, 87; Acts 17:24-28. "Woe" to mankind! Torture and control of men serves the devil's efforts to hurt God. Gaining man's worship, they had every intention of keeping men ignorant hopefully to incense God enough to destroy His own children.
All nations are in twos, one visible and the other invisible. All invisible devils residing on the bodies of men in our visible nations must drink our WINE whether they like it or not! Jeremiah 25:15-17. So if a man sees these WORDS, devils are forced to the "bloody waters". We do not expect Satanic "Pharaoh" and his demonic "Egyptian" forces to desire to drink JESUS' BLOOD-WORD. It has dregs which taunt them as failures in their concerted effort to hold and destroy God's household, Isaiah 49:24-26. The "GOOD NEWS" OF WINE transfers the cup of fury from the hands of man to the hands of our possessors.
At this point the WORD-Jesus will do for you on paper what Paul wrote in Colossians 2:15: (and this time we will quote): "Having spoiled principalities and powers, HE MADE A SHOW OF THEM openly, triumphing over them in it". We will SHOW YOU the kingdom of darkness that men cannot see, but Jesus as God's eyewitness could see and talk to. I caution you not to be afraid of what you will read. Devils cannot do any more to you than God allows. You have not been afraid before, so do not be frightened now. Praise God! Devils have no solid ground to hold on to except the bodies of men and animals. God's curse sending them into an endless circular fall, has not permitted them to dwell on earth's surface the way men do. Devils fall right through solid matter as if it was not there! These effects makes the earth "prison" a torture chamber and the "bottomless pit" for them only! They are forced to watch men enjoy the comforts of life. We have food, drinking water, clothing and peace as God's blessings. This difference torments them! So there is perpetual envy of men and these contrasting conditions stimulate vengeful attacks. HOLDING ON TO MEN AND CAPTURING THEM IS A NECESSITY for devils to break their falls. In the prophecies these things are written in code terms. Our bodies become a "seat" for devils, Revelation 2:13, or a "throne" from which they reign over and control those possessed, Daniel 7:9. Men become their horses, chariots and weapons in battle, Ezekiel 38:14-17. You cannot "feel" them hanging on to you, but they are ever with us as our own personal "badgerskin veil", Habakkuk 1:4; Matthew 12:43-45; John 8:33-35. Man's body happens to be the temple Moses' analogy referred to, Exodus 26:1,14; I Corinthians 6:19. THIS KNOWLEDGE IS THE "BITTER HERBS" FOR OUR PASSOVER SUPPER. ...Oh, yes!...THIS IS THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS WRITTEN IN BLOOD!...whether you believe it or not. (See any "red-letter" edition of the Bible).
a. LEGIONS OF DEVILS, Luke 8:29-30,----little short, naked, mad monsters may cling to one's body like bees on a hive. This is an astounding, shocking sight to see, Isaiah 14:16-17; Ezekiel 28:19; Nahum 3:4-6.
b. "ENEMY TOWERS" ARE STACKS OF DEMONS, like American Indian "totem poles" one on top of the other. These towers fall when God removes men from their clay bodies, Ezekiel 26:4, 28:2.
c. But if a man carries "GOOD WINE" he becomes a flame of fire to the chaff or a fire in the midst of DEAD, DRY STICKS, Isaiah 27:11. They will howl, curse and blaspheme in anguish of spirit because he carries it. THUS IT BECOMES A "MUST" AND A TOP PRIORITY FOR YOUR "BADGERSKIN VEIL" TO CONVINCE YOU NOT TO ACCEPT, BELIEVE, OR HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH GOD'S WORD-WINE! DO NOT HELP THEM! At this point all we can do is taunt them for failure until God eliminates them and the memory of their existence, Psalm 37:10; Isaiah 41:11-12, 65:8-17; Revelation 17:8. Do read all of these texts. Devils will be mad and try to fight back. But YOU can be a RED SWORD in the belly of the Dragon by speaking WINE! Jeremiah 51:20-26; Revelation 19:13-15. As for our Satanic "Pharaoh" and his forces, all they have managed to do is to knock down all the lively stones of the temple, Matthew 24:1-2; I Corinthians 6:19; I Peter 2:5. God is building them up again in Heaven, Psalm 127:1; Amos 9:11-15. They crushed the "clay" casings of the "stars" which God called and caused to rise up above them...contrary to Lucifer's wishes! Daniel 8:8-12. Devils have been used to hew wood, Isaiah 61:3, and to cut stones, I Peter 2:5, already prefabricated as spirits for the build-up of the temple in heaven. Hiram (acting the role for Satan) and Solomon (role-playing for Jesus) revealed this in the way God had them build the earthly temple, I Kings 5:18, 6:7. "For God is a spirit" and so are we. There is no need to immortalize a perishable "clay suit" because that is all you can relate to, John 4:24, 6:63. So you can forget your clay house, I Corinthians 15:48-50. This knowledge, too, shall serve to torment devils, because God lost nothing for all their efforts against Him! Read in the Apocrypha, Wisdom of Solomon ch. 2 for a picture of the anguish and wrath of devils against the man of God who resists them, and their remorse and grief upon seeing and hearing our WINE, Wisdom ch. 5.
How would you like to vex the kingdom of devils like you have never done before?! Become a winebibber and roar through WINE! Zechariah 9:14-17. There is nothing wrong with hurting demons! Nevertheless "new wine must be put in new bottles", Matthew 9:17. YOU must be changed from being the COWARD soldier that you are!
Let us get (Most) "HIGH"! No grievous wound could be more painful than for the JUDGE to refuse Satan a hearing, John 5:22, 8:15. No greater frustration could have come to the devil as an "Accusing attorney" before the JUDGE, Proverbs 30:10, than to have the JUDGE "waive the law" in the cases He did hear, and then throw devils out of Court, Romans 5:18-21; I Corinthians 15:56-57. No greater anguish could have fallen on the devil than to have the JUDGE pardon all the crimes man was involved in, because a substitute (Jesus) agreed to take man's punishment, Isaiah 53:5-6,11-12. Worse yet for the powers of darkness, THE JUDGE charges all devils with all the sins men commit, since He gave them the power to control men in all wicked "acts", Romans 8:18-22. This is HIS function against the "scapegoats" (demons) as MOST HIGH PRIEST in the atoning process, Proverbs 21:18, where Jesus was his "sin offering" for ALL THE PEOPLE! See Leviticus 16:8,15-17,20-22,29-30, for light concerning the ATONEMENT! Notice how verses 21-22,30 CHARGE SATAN. The JUDGE blames the devil (John 16:8,11) for all crimes for all people for all times in a ONE-TIME PROCESS which renders ALL THE PEOPLE CLEAN. This glory of the gospel is what Moses taught you by the Atonement observation, John 5:46-47.
Being exposed to these truths are like wounds....It hurts like hell!! "ALL IS LOST"! I John 2:2, 4:14. ALL THEIR EFFORTS AT WAR IN VAIN! Psalm 112:4,10; Isaiah 66:14; Jeremiah 33:6-9. Why should YOU COMFORT THEM with lies by telling them they have damned most of your fellowmen?! Isaiah 30:8-11. Such a lie is "asp wine" mentioned in the Song of Moses. But after a taste of our WINE, even they will not believe those lies!
