This began as a response to Mitch’s question. The
answer is TOO GOOD to remain buried in the original string. I hope this will
give you greater appreciation of the splendor in the work of your Father-Creator,
God. You have been blessed with the greatest blessing anyone can hope for.
You have been a ROYAL, IMMORTAL, GLORIOUS CHILD OF LIGHT from the very beginning.
It has been DARK down here for SOOOOO LOONNGG … and now my father is turning
on the lights! That which is “in part” is dropping by the wayside! It is
time for YOU to REJOICE GREATLY!!
Children of light
Quote:
John then please explain:
John 1:9
There was the true light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
How is every man coming into the world enlightened?
This first text answers your question immediately, but we will not end this
so abruptly. I prefer to build on it from other biblical writings!
Secrets of Enoch 25 1 I commanded
in the very lowest parts, that visible things should come down from invisible,
and Adoil (Mother Wisdom) came down very great, and I beheld 2 him, and lo!
he had a belly of great light. And I said to him: 'Become undone, Adoil, and
let 3 the visible come out of thee.' And he came undone, and a great light
came out. AndI was in the midst of the great light,
and as there is born light from light, there came forth a great age, and
showed all creation, which I had thought to 4 create. And I
saw that it was good. And I placed for myself a throne, and took; my seat
on it, and said to the light: 'Go thou up higher and fix thyself high above
the throne, and be 5 a foundation to the highest things.' And above the light
there is nothing else, and then I bent up and looked up from my throne.
James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh
down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow
of turning.
Matthew 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your
Father, which is in heaven.
James 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day:
we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
Since the text below says “LIFE is the LIGHT of men”, there should be no
question of WHO the SOURCE of your LIFE-Light is! If you do not know the
answer to that one I am VERY DISAPPOINTED! I am going on the assumption that
you know all LIFE comes from “our Father”, God!
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the
world.
Now if you did not have all these other texts available to direct your path
and John 1:9 was all you could see, which one of the “two subjects”, (a)
the Father, and (b) the Word-Jesus, is the object of the relative pronouns,
“that” and “which”? If you say (a) you are a reasonable man. If you say
(b) that is impossible since Jesus was born 2000 years ago and many billions
of human beings came and went in their respective generations before he came
here. That choice “makes NO sense”.
Now let us see Father as the SOURCE OF LIGHT from the Old Testament.
All men were created on the 4th day of the creation as “the stars of God”.
As you know scientist have learned that the stars are distant suns. And stars are
lights we see at night.
Genesis 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven
to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons,
and for days, and years: 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of
the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made two
great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night:
he made the starsalso. 17 And God set them in the firmament of the
heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 And to rule over the day and over
the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it
was good. 19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
Now this is allegoric for “humanity” as God reveals it to Abraham, “the father
of many nations”.
Genesis 15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the
stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy
seed be. 6 And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for
righteousness.
Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep
in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and
some to shame and everlasting contempt 3 And they that be wise shall shine as the
brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as
the stars for ever and ever.
Matthew 13:41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather
out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; 43
Then shall the righteous shine
forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to
hear, let him hear.
Another form of proof that men are created as children of light whose true glory is toned down in the fleshcan
be seen in Moses. After he talked with God in the mountain God lit up his
face with his true glory and Moses became a living lamp! God could have turned
on his whole body. Moses had to wear a bonnet with a veil over his head
because the people were afraid of him. I personally can attest to “our inner
glory”. God caused a beam of light to come out of my wrist in a pitch-black
room when He was “manifesting Himself to me”, letting me know “WHO” was dealing
with me. This was to impress me and get my attention and to make me feel
comfortable with him calm my fear. I am a personal witness to our inner glory.
We are “children of light”.
Another sense of who lights every man who comes into the world is this.
The Great light is Father Himself! Our bodies are His temples. He said,
“I will dwell in them and walk in them”. His
presence in us is light that lights every man who is born into
this world.
Here are other accounts, which will enhance your appreciation of your glorious
heritage as a “child of light”.
Books of Adam and Eve from
VITA ADAE ET EVAE and Apocalypse of MOSES
xxi. 1 And behold, there came twelve
angels and two 'virtues', standing on the right and on the left 2 of Eve;
and Michael was standing on the right; and he stroked her on the face as far
as to the breast and said to Eve: 'Blessed art thou, Eve, for Adam's sake.
Since his prayers and intercessions are great, I have been sent that thou
mayst receive our help. Rise up now, and 3 prepare thee to bear. Andshe
bore a son and he was shining; and at once the babe rose up
and ran and bore a blade of grass in his hands, and gave it to his mother,
and his name was called Cain.
FRAGMENT OF THE BOOK OF NOAH
Enoch 106 1 And after some days my son Methuselah
took a wife for his son Lamech, and she became 2 pregnant by him and bore
a son. And his
body was white as snow and red as the blooming of a rose, and the hair of
his head and his long locks were white as wool, and his eyes beautiful And
when he opened his eyes, he lighted up the whole house like the sun, and the
whole house 3 was very bright. And thereupon he arose in the hands of the
midwife, opened his mouth, and conversed with the Lord of righteousness.
4 And his father Lamech was afraid of him and 5 fled, and came to
his father Methuselah. And he said unto him: 'I have begotten a strange son,
diverse from and unlike man, and resembling the sons of the God of heaven;
and his nature is different and he is not like us, and his eyes are as the
rays of the sun, and his countenance 6 is glorious. And it seems to me that
he is not sprung from me but from the angels, and I fear that in his days
a wonder may be 7 wrought on the earth. And now, my father, I am here to
petition thee and implore thee that thou mayst go to Enoch, our father, and
learn from him the truth, for his dwelling-place is 8 amongst the angels.'
And when Methuselah heard the words of his son, he came to me to the ends
of the earth; for he had heard that I was there, and he cried aloud, and
I heard his voice and I came to him. And I said unto him: 'Behold, here am
I, my son, wherefore hast 9 thou come to me? 'And he answered and said: 'Because
of a great cause of anxiety have I come to thee, and because of a disturbing
vision 10 have I approached. And now, my father, hear me:unto Lamech my son there hath been born
a son, the like of whom there is none, and his nature is not lkie man's nature,
and the colour of his body is whiter than snow and redder than the bloom
of a rose, and the hair of his head is whiter than white wool, and his eyes
are like the rays of the sun, and he opened his eyes and 11 thereupon lighted
up the whole house. And he arose in the hands of the midwife, and opened
12 his mouth and blessed the Lord of heaven. And his father Lamech became
afraid and fled to me, and did not believe that he was sprung from
him, but that he was in the likeness of the angels of heaven; and behold I
have come to thee that thou mayst make known to me the truth. 13 And I, Enoch,
answered and said unto him: 'The Lord will do a new thing on the earth, and
this I have already seen in a vision, and make known to thee that in the
generation of my father Jared some of the angels of heaven 14 transgressed
the word of the Lord. And behold they commit sin and transgress the law, and
have united themselves with women and commit sin with them, and have married
some of them, 17 and have begot children by them. And they shall produce
on the earth giants not according to the spirit, but according to the flesh,
and there shall be a great punishment on the earth, and the 15 earth shall
be cleansed from all impurity. Yea, there shall come a great destruction
over the whole earth, and there shall be a deluge and 16 a great destruction
for one year. And this son who
has been born unto you shall be left on the earth, and his three children
shall be saved with him: when all mankind that are on the earth 18 shall
die he and his sons shall be saved. And now make known to thy son Lamech
that he who has been born is in truth his son, and call his name Noah; for
he shall be left to you, and he and his sons shall be saved from the destruction,
which shall come upon the earth on account of all the sin and all the unrighteousness,
which shall be consummated on the earth in his days.
Matthew 17:1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother,
and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, 2 And was transfigured before
them: and his face did shine as the sun,
and his raiment was white as the light.
I might as well tell you, your Father has
had a bit of fun with this! The account surrounding Noah’s birth is
a case in point. Cain was born “shining”. Noah was born glorious and immediately
blessed God. Moses’
face was turned on like a power lamp. Jesus was transfigured
before three disciples. These instances SHOW YOU WHO YOU ARE! Since you
have been blind to your origin and heritage, Jesus was correct in saying
the following.
Matthew 11:25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father,
Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise
and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. 26 Even so, Father: for so
it seemed good in thy sight. 27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father:
and no man knoweth the Son,
but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he
to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
Men have failed to KNOW WHO THEY ARE! Some have said, “You can become a
son of God if….” Others said, “You can become an adopted son, but…”. These
“in part” doctrines and guess-work are “short of the glory” and confirm Jesus
in the above text. Even though God has told men they are His children, apparently
men did not believe Him. They believe that they are much less and they are
“apart” from God. This post shows you in the very first text from Secrets
of Enoch 25 WHO YOU ARE! You are a shining star, no matter who you are shining
bright to see you are a part of “ME”! God has told me who I am. I have
seen the immortal light coming from my own hand! I KNOW WHO ALL MEN ARE.
We are and have always been “children of light”, the WHOLE FAMILY created
on the 4th creation day and placed in Father’s Heavenly nursery only to be
planted in clay wombs in a series of generations. The house of clay masks
your true face and glory in this time of sin so that when you do rise in
the face of Heaven, the real “YOU” cannot be associated with the sins in
your mortal body. You will have a new face, a new body, a new name and hence
a new ID. You will NEVER mention your earthly name again or reveal your
former ID to anyone. Circumcision (cutting the spirit from the clay coccoon)
is God’s means of rolling away the reproach of Egypt (accusing devils) from
us. No demon knows your name! When they accuse men they NEVER accuse the
children of light because they just don’t know our names! Now you KNOW who
you are PERFECTLY. Isn’t this better than fussing over trite things and
striving over words? Paul said this:
Colossians 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are
above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection
on things above, not on things on the earth.
Matthew 6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
And this we will do as God permits.
So, Mitch, explaining John 1:9 is easy! It is even easier when you see the
WHOLE from above. You get a panoramic view through ALL THE WORD VOLUME-RECORD.
Those who READ MORE KNOW MORE and have fewer questions. Those who read in
a limited range will not
have all the “puzzle pieces” and they will have many questions. Understand this, KingdomTalk,
your Father is turning on the lights!
Isaiah 61:10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord,
my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments
of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom
decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.
11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the
things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord God will cause righteousness
and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
Proverbs 23:24 The father of the righteous shall
greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him.
25 Thy father and thy mother shall be glad, and she that bare thee shall rejoice.
Psalm 21:1 The king shall joy in thy strength,
O Lord; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice! 2 Thou hast given
him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.
3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a
crown of pure gold on his head.
Come! Ride
with us! … Won’t YOU?
2 Esdras 13 1 2 THE SEVEN DAYS PASSED; and the next night I had a dream. In
my dream, 3 a wind came up out of the sea and set the waves in turmoil. And
this wind brought a human figure rising from the depths, and as I watched
this man came flying with the clouds
of heaven.Wherever he turned his 4 eyes, everything that they
fell on was seized with terror; and wherever the sound of his voice reached,
all who heard it melted like wax at the touch of fire.
Psalm 110:1 The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make
thine enemies thy footstool.
Secrets of Enoch 23:1 And he was telling me all the works of heaven, earth
and sea, and all the elements, their passages and goings, and the thunderings
of the thunders, the sun and moon, the goings and changes of the stars, the
seasons, years, days, and hours, 2, 3 and the formation of their songs, and
all human things, the tongue of every human song and life, the commandments,
instructions, and sweet-voiced singings, and all things that it is fitting
to learn. And Pravuil told me: 'All the things 4 that I have told thee, we
have written. Sit and write all the souls
of mankind, however many of them are born, and the places prepared for them
5 to eternity; for all souls are prepared to eternity, before the formation
of the world.'
ODE OF SOLOMON 12.
An exceptionally high level of spiritual thought.
1 He hath filled me with words of truth; that I may speak the same; 2 And
like the flow of waters flows truth from my mouth, and my lips show forth
His fruit. 3 And He has caused His knowledge to abound in me, because the
mouth of the Lord is the true Word, and the door of His light; 4 And the Most
High hath given it to His words, which are the interpreters of His own beauty,
and the repeaters of His praise, and the confessors of His counsel and the
heralds of His thought and the chasteners of His servants. 5 For the swiftness
of the Word is inexpressible, and like its expression is its swiftness and
force; 6 And its course knows no limit. Never doth it fail, but it stands
sure, and it knows not descent nor the way of it. 7 For as its work is, so
is its end: for it is light and the dawning of thought; 8 And by it the worlds talk one to the other;
and in the Word there were those that were silent; 9 And from it came love
and concord; and they spake one to the other whatever was theirs; and they
were penetrated by the Word; 10 And they knew Him who made them, because they
were in concord; for the mouth of
the Most High spake to them; and His explanation ran by means of it: 11 For
the dwelling-place of the Word is man: and its truth is love. 12 Blessed
are they who by means thereof have understood everything, and have known
the Lord in His truth. Hallelujah.
