"I feel a great urgency about this message because the vision tells us that not only are the “books” opened, but also the other book, THE BOOK OF LIFE. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire — for further purging and purification. I want to help you grasp why you are here — you are being prepared to reveal the invisible God to the visible creation! Dear reader of these lines, you are not just anybody. You came out from God. There is a strange and wonderful statement in Hebrews 10:7. “Lo, I come (in the VOLUME OF THE BOOK it is written of me) to do Thy will, O God.” These words are attributed to Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. This is, however, a quotation from Psalm 40:7. Therefore, the “volume of the book” referred to was written before the Psalms! The five books of Moses were written before any others, except, perhaps, the book of Job; and in these earliest books of the Bible Moses pled for God to have mercy upon the children of Israel, “and if not, blot me out of THY BOOK which Thou hast written” (Ex. 32:32). These words speak of a book written by God Himself which was older than Genesis or any of the other books of Moses. God wrote the law of His life in His Christ (Head and body) long before the Bible was written! The scripture indicates that the revelation Jesus was sent to bring to pass on earth was fully recorded in the “Volume of the Book” long before Jesus ever started to walk out His script in the earth realm. The nature of God written in the Christ, the Logos, the Word, which was in the beginning with God, was the heavenly reality of that Book of Life that would be written and opened on earth. Do you not get the connection between the Word and the Volume of the Book? That’s what a book is — it is a word! And it is the Book of Life, for of the Word John says, “In Him was Life; and the life was the light of men” (Jn. 1:1,4). And then John tells us that “THE WORD was made flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory…” (Jn. 1:14). By revelation of the Spirit John is telling us that the Word was made manifest FOR ALL THE WORLD TO READ. This Word, this Holy Record of the Life of God, was not written upon stone, nor papyrus, nor golden parchment, but THE WORD was MADE FLESH TO DWELL AMONG MEN AND BE READ BY THEM! Unlike any other book in the world, this “Book” was alive and the title of this Book was JESUS!"
Much more in the link:
Yes, very exciting, I'm reading the link now, blows me away :)
There is at least seven years of bad things going to happen before this.
In a physical, literal interpretation, the doctrine you speak of is taught. The study I'm posting is a spiritual reality in mankind interpretation, it is not new, it's just not the prevalent interpretation.
After 40 years as a Christian without hearing this spiritual interpretation I'm happy to share it with the Body of Christ.
Thank you!
You're still pushing this guy's nonsense? Kudos for the stamina. Shame on you for doing it though.
I was just thinking of you and that other fellow. I hope you are well. Read the link, tell me what parts you think are nonsense.
That link above is part of a 250 part series on the Revelation of Jesus Christ from a spiritual perspective. I'd welcome and enjoy your input in these threads.
:)
I am well.
And no thank you. I did my time with the godfire nonsense.
Not to be a jerk, but I have better things to do than go back over things that are clearly unbiblical Men way smarter than me and much closer to the Lord have already done so.
Ok, good to see you though, I'm glad you are well!
Take care!
"And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works" (Rev. 20:13).
"And the sea gave up the dead that were in it…" In its symbolical and spiritual meaning the sea speaks of the manifestation of those who dwell in that lowest realm of life. Throughout the scriptures the sea is a type of the inner storms and turbulent nature of the Adamic man. The prophet Isaiah penned these inspired words: "The wicked are like the troubled sea, which cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked" (Isa. 57:20-21). Jude also described wicked men when he said, "These are raging waves of the sea, foaming out their shame" (Jude 13). The beloved John on the isle of Patmos, had a vision of a great whore sitting on many waters. The angel revealed the meaning of the many waters, saying, "the waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues" (Rev. 17:15). I think there could be no better symbol by which to represent the people and society of any day than by the waters of the sea! At times the human race, even in their carnality, is calm and peaceful, then rough and boisterous, and then dangerous and treacherous."

"Herein is an arrangement that will work — the old covenant was written and engraven in stone and the people were unable to keep it. Israel began well, accepted the covenant, and promised obedience. But there was no power to continue, to fulfill it; no power to conquer temptation, or overcome the evil heart; to remain faithful. Just as the old covenant was the law written and engraven in stone, and one could hold high this stone tablet and say, “Here is the covenant of our God,” so the new covenant is the law (nature) of God inscribed in the minds and hearts of a people — not merely a law, but that law written, inscribed in a people — so that you can point to that people and say, “There is the covenant of our God!” The people with the law of God written in their hearts IS THE COVENANT, THE BOOK OF GOD’S LAW OF LIFE. I heard of a man who collects presidential signatures. The autographs are valuable, some of them priceless — not because of the ink or paper that was used, but because of the person who wrote them. These presidential signatures are all appropriately framed and hung with dignity and honor. God has made a covenant with mankind that has been written by His finger and signed in blood. This is not a mere document but an agreement — signed in our Lord’s own blood. His blood is His life and it is His life formed in His people which constitutes His signature with His blood. YOU ARE THE COVENANT. Never forget that!"
"Jesus said, “In the volume of the book it is written of me: Lo, I come to do Thy will O God.” Jesus Himself was the WORD OF GOD, the VOLUME OF THE BOOK. It was IN HIM that God’s will was written! And now the Lamb of God is living out His Life in us as the completion of that Book! God’s called and chosen elect are thus THE BOOK OF THE LIFE OF THE LAMB! Through that blessed company conformed to His image the world shall now, at last, read “the rest of the story”!
