"And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God." Melchizedek presents himself as the king of Salem and as the priest of the most high God. He represented Trinity the same memorials before the throne of God mentioned in Re.5. Body and Spirit was signified in his own person. What was his gift to Abraham? Bread and wine represented the humanity of the Son signified by bread and wine. As Jesus reminded his disciples," Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body."(Matt.26:26-29). As with bread the wine refers to his body. "Drink ye all of it;/For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins./But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom." Notice the expression, 'until that day'? Drinking it new as with the new song refers to the glorious body which is distinct from what the disciples drank 'unto this day' in the company of the Son of man. Meat and drink of doing the will of God while in physical bodies we do in remembrance of what we drink in the Father's kingdom. This is established by the Lamb slain who was worthy to open the book.(Re.5:6). The same in flesh was seen. "The Lamb of God" that takes away sin is how Spirit of the Father revealed it to John the Baptist.( John 1:29).
The first two paras of should be read as follows:
This new song is already set as a memorial in heaven. Compare it with the song of Moses. "And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb,"(Re.15:2-3) And the martyrs from Abel onwards (Matt.23:35-36) are singing to 'thou King of saints.' "and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God." This vision fills in dots in the Jesus saying in Matt.23. So woe to ye condemnation of Jesus provides list of martyrs."Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation" and it is complete. It also dates what is the duration of the generation of Jesus shall be. (Matt.1:1)
What is the theme of the new song? "Thou art worthy" and " And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.(Re.5:9-10) When God breathed into the nostrils of man He made him a living soul For this reason Jesus told his disciples, "But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak./ For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you."(Matt.10:19-20) Simon Peter also by the same Spirit identified Jesus correctly. The victory over the beast has been determined and the body(24 elders) attests to their foreknowledge. Fo this reason no man may excuse that he was ignorant. Adam disobeyed and he shall account for his soul before the throne of God."
Grace and truth as two pinions give total sanctification its wings. "And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest."(Ps.55:6) Our God is our strength. "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty./I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust." (Ps.91:1-2) In practice it is the daily walk with the Lamb who is worthy so he is the heart of God. It has a name: Zion. "all my springs are in thee."(Ps.87:6-7) When the 24 elders worship we heard the chorus as well."and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;"(5:11)
The imposter church has not heard it and had the ungodly understood what the memorial in heaven signifies for him he might lern to study the word of God himself to be be profitable. Those who hold truth in unrighteousness "Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth./Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith./But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was."(2 Ti.3:7-9)
"And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book," This new song is already set as a memorial in heaven. Compare it with the song of Moses. "And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb,"(Re.15:2-3) And the martyrs from Abel onwards (Matt.23:35-36) are singing to 'thou King of saints.' "and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God." This vision fills in dotes in the Jesus saying. So woe to ye condemnation of Jesus provides the complete list of martyrs."Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation". It also dates what is the duration of the generation of Jesus (Matt.1:1)
What is the theme of the new song? "Thou art worthy" and " And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.(Re.5:9-10) When God breathed into the nostrils of man He made him a living soul For this reason Jesus told his disciples, "But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak./ For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you."(Matt.10:19-20) Simon Peter also by the same Spirit. The victory over the beast has been determined and the body(24 elders) attests to their foreknowledge.
Fo this reason no man may excuse that he was ignorant. Adam disobeyed and he shall account for his soul before the throne of God.
Truth that God imparted to Adam has certain color which is different in the manner faith is put to work. "For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith."(Re.1:17) Gospel of Christ when lived gives a quality that speaks for the soul of man. Total sanctification is not simply what one may live by his will but faith with works.
My thought is why did they choose to use this one word from hebrew and only in these places, especially when the work being done is to translate in to English.
Referring to the four living creatures (Ez.10:12) we have another symbol to consider. Wheels within wheels denote the greater and lesser lights which are signs. (Ge.1:16-19) As signs we are to witness before the perishing world as well as among inheritors in the kingdom of light. Refer to the everlasting covenant "and to divide the light from the darkness.". This is to be observed in the new heaven and new earth.
The earth below the outer darkness is for all nations left behind. "And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it."(Is.2:2) The Ark of Noah rested on Mount Ararat. Evocative of it the new heaven and new earth the kingdom of light is in mid-air. "Flowing into it" must be understood for spiritual bodies but not glorious bodies. 'Exalted above the hills' reinforce where the throne shall be.
You read once more carefully what it is to be a living soul.
I place my request before Your feet knowing that You love them.
Thank You Heavenly Father, Thank You Jesus Christ and Thank You Holy Spirit.
Amen
Jesus Christ thank You for healing Bernard.
Words are powerful. Amen
The first thing someone needs to determine is where a LEGAL stronghold is. Any unconfessed or unrepentant sin gives access to demons; and a person is not ready for deliverance. It is possible when someone starts to manifest that such counsel can be given after a demon is cast out; as we don't always have time to evaluate these things such as with Jesus casting out the demons from the men in the tombs ( Matt. 8:28-34).
We also don't have the authority to cast a demon into hell. If the demons could plead to be elsewhere since even they knew it was "before the time". That is found in this same passage also. The same principle of course is in relation to Satan who can't be "sent to hell" and isn't RULING there now. ( Eph. 4:7-9 and other verses). We also don't have the authority to mess with powers and principalities that God has temporarily allowed under Satan's hierarchy. There are things in the angelic realms as the Book of Daniel suggests in that regard. We appeal to Christ in all prayers and work through His authority; therefore we must truly know Him and ourselves be prepared spiritually to be full of the Spirit in such encounters.
I won't take this post to debate if a believer can be truly possessed by a demon; or just oppressed. Oppression is a very real phenomenon; and no doubt affects many of us as we go through life's trials.
As to my earlier commentary; we also need to beware of deceptive doctrines; and having a proud "religious" spirit. The enemy has a plethora of methods to engage in battle; and we can only learn from experience to detect these things and rely on the Spirit to navigate things until the one battle truly subsides and hopefully we are better prepared for the next one. Naturally; if we are truly doing the work of God the struggle and trials become greater; both for the Lord to bring us to sanctification and edification; and because we are a threat to the enemy.
"And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God." Luke 18:27 KJV
As a believer, I, believe God concerning your prayer petition before God, and that,
"... he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed." Isaiah 53:5 KJV
"O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah." Psalms 84:8 KJV
As a believer, I stand in agreement that God hears and answers prayers, Amen.
In Jesus Christ name, Amen.
A believer should not allow anyone even their own spouse to cause them to miss out or sin against God, as the scripture reads further both received the same judgment, although they conspired together, the husband was judged then the wife was asked whether their dealings with the Apostles were true and being judged separately received the same judgment as her husband. Each one had an opportunity to be honest and they valued their relationship above their love for God. The same God who created them both and allowed them to have a spousal relationship in the first place (not that only God provided for them to have the field in their possession). They put their trust in their relationship, by obeying each other and not obeying God. A believer should God obey first in all things, whether married or unmarried and this scripture is an example of that and how careful a believer has to be in their human interactions with others. Not just husband and wife, which is the highest human form of a human relationship, all human relationships, whether Mother/Father, Siblings, neighbors, employers, friends, family relations, any human relationship that a believer has, God should always be honored and obeyed first. A believer shouldn't choose a path or make a decision that is contrary to God's way.
If only they had the courage to say they did not want to participate or only wanted to contribute a certain amount. I see a lot in the bible about the human condition of failure to communicate. In this case, failure to communicate perhaps could have been based on pride ("the pride of life'). Perhaps, they sincerely wanted to give, however, both seemingly wanted to control the situation by privately agreeing to do something separately from what was agreed upon. We also notice in the scripture that nothing is private, God knows all things.
"Does the bible support a women Pastor or Bishop. I know already that the bible supports women in ministering the word, just to clarify."
Based on the qualifications of a Bishop, I do not believe the bible supports a woman Bishop based on qualifications ("This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work." 1 Timothy 3:1 KJV), however a Pastor may not necessarily be a Bishop and therefore a woman can be a Pastor or called to be a Pastor, I believe. In this scripture when the bible states a man desiring the office, I believe it is for a male to be a Bishop and not a female, since the qualifications entail having a wife and a man exhibiting leadership over his family and household.
A women and wife can be two different categories, although a wife is a woman, a unmarried woman is not a wife and is not subject to any man, only to God. The bible indicates if a married woman wants to do anything that she should ask her husband, husbands and wives should be on one accord in righteouness.
43When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. 44Then it says, 'I will return to the house I left.' On its return, it finds the house vacant, swept clean, and put in order. 45Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there; and the final plight of that man is worse than the first. So will it be with this wicked generation."
This passage would seem to infer that a person could have an evil spirit removed somehow; but without the Holy Spirit taking up residence post salvation. ( John 14:23). We are reminded of the sons of Sceva who had demons come out of someone they were trying to exorcize and rend them. ( Acts 19:14-16). We also could conceivably be reminded of those Jesus cast demons from; since some may not have been truly saved after that. We see evidence of that with the case of 1 leper that came back to praise Him while the others went away. ( Luke 17:17-18). We see warnings also of Christ saying sin no more lest something worse happen to you ( John 5:14). In that case it would probably be death as he had been paralyzed for decades apparently due to some sin.
We can think of the condition in the Synagogue where Jesus cast out a demon early on ( John 4:33 and following verses); and consider how the religious and self righteous piety of the Pharisees caused them to have this condemnation in particular.
A more sobering thought is many "ministries" today who are seemingly obsessed with casting out demons (in some cases it is proven the same person is involved over and over as a likely paid participant for crowd appeal). I personally have a big problem with one particular teacher who often baptizes people (and says is necessary for salvation) and demons come out.
We can hardly call someone in that condition in a sound mind ready to make such a commitment to the Body of Christ as Baptism signifies.
In your comment you carelessly interpreted 'Adam as the son of God.( Luke 3:38).' Adam was created of the dust of the earth- Genesis 2:7 and 3:19- , not begotten, so Adam is not GOD's son, only his origin is from GOD.
John 3:16 - GOD so loved the world, that he gave his ONLY begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God bless
