The Fall Of Edom<span style="font-size: 1.5em; letter-spacing: 0em; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">"</span><br><div><br>Reference: Isaiah Chapter 21<br><br>Heaven and earth shall pass away, but the word of God shall never pass away. That Egyptian kingdom with their great Pharaoh came to an end. The Babylonian kingdom with a great king, Nebuchadnezzar, came to an end. The Roman empire came to an end. Israel with their great King David, King Solomon, and their subsequent kings came to an end. There is only one king today. He is a king not only of Israel, but He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. There is only one kingdom that has no end, and that is the Kingdom of God. Jesus Christ, the second Adam,,is the King of this kingdom.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 21:1-9 "The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass through; so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land. [2] A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease. [3] Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman that travaileth: I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it. [4] My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me. [5] Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, ye princes, and anoint the shield. [6] For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth. [7] And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed: [8] And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights: [9] And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground."<br><br>The problem with man is idolatry: looking for satisfaction in something made with the hands of man. At the Tower of Babel, men tried to build their way to God, trying to build their own kingdom, and God struck them with different languages. Babylon the great fell because they will not seek the true and living God but follow their own idols. The Great King made a statue for the whole nation to worship an idol, which everybody did except for three Hebrew boys, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.<br><br>In the end, this great city, Babylon, will deceive many, and God will judge it with a great judgment.<br><br>Revelation 14:8 "And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication."<br><br>It will be the city of all false doctrine, which is typified by the harlot.<br><br>Revelation 17:5 "And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH."<br><br>Every false teaching or doctrine is a form of Babylon.<br><br>Revelation 18:21 "And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all."<br><br>God will bring judgement to every proponent of false doctrine. Only the Word of God will forever remain.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 21:10-16 "O my threshing, and the corn of my floor: that which I have heard of the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you. [11] The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night? [12] The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come. [13] The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim. [14] The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled. [15] For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war. [16] For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail:"<br><br>God will never judge a nation without first sending a warning. The gospel warning is going to every nation. There isn't one leader of a nation who is not aware of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Just like Egypt, Babylon, Rome, Edom. Every nation was judged, so shall every nation today be judged, but before judgment, God is sending the light of the gospel to all nations.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 21:17 "And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel hath spoken it."<br><br>The warning is clear. God has shed His blood for man to escape the blood of the first Adam. We do that by turning on our light of faith and placing that faith in the blood of Jesus Christ, the second Adam. God has done it all. No nation has an excuse it's an intentional rebellion, if any man or woman is not in Christ today.<br><br>Exit the blood of the first Adam. BELIEVE &nbsp;and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. No other kingdom shall stand, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

And he did so, walking naked and barefoot. [3] And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked naked and barefoot three years for a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia; [4] So shall the king of Assyria lead away the Egyptians prisoners, and the Ethiopians captives, young and old, naked and barefoot, even with their buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt."<br><br>These heathen nations were not walking according to the word of God. They believed in their idols instead of the one living God. He promises to preserve those who love Him, those who believe Him and destroy the wicked, the unbeliever. And that was exactly what He did at the time of Sodom and Gomorrah, at the time of Noah, and soon the great tribulation.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 20:5-6 "And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory. [6] And the inhabitant of this isle shall say in that day, Behold, such is our expectation, whither we flee for help to be delivered from the king of Assyria: and how shall we escape?"<br><br>The Lord uses the elements to judge nations. It was fire and brimstone on Sodom and Gomorrah. It was a water flood at the time of Noah. So shall the elements be used on the day of the Lord.<br><br>2 Peter 3:10-11 "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. [11] Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness."<br><br>Walk close with the Lord in godliness. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. The day of the Lord is at hand, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Kingdoms against kingdoms. Egypt shall be destroyed, and Egypt shall turn to the one Living God.<br>God never fails to send a warning before judgment. Egypt is warned by the prophet. Isaiah.<br><br>Let's read.<br><br>Isaiah 19:1-2 "The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it. [2] And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom."<br><br>He is the God that sent the flood at the time of Noah. He is the God that will set Egyptians against Egyptians, and neighbor against neighbor. when salvation is rejected, the Lord sends chaos. Everyone that refused to heed the words of Noah died in the flood and went to hell. So is it today, everyone that refuses to heed the Gospel, that refuses to enter the Ark of Jesus Christ, the second Adam, will be destroyed, and the end result is hell.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 19:3-12 "And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards. [4] And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts. [5] And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the river shall be wasted and dried up. [6] And they shall turn the rivers far away; and the brooks of defence shall be emptied and dried up: the reeds and flags shall wither. [7] The paper reeds by the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks, and every thing sown by the brooks, shall wither, be driven away, and be no more. [8] The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish. [9] Moreover they that work in fine flax, and they that weave networks, shall be confounded. [10] And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof, all that make sluices and ponds for fish. [11] Surely the princes of Zoan are fools, the counsel of the wise counsellors of Pharaoh is become brutish: how say ye unto Pharaoh, I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings? [12] Where are they? where are thy wise men? and let them tell thee now, and let them know what the LORD of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt."<br><br>They looked for the ark, at the time of Noah, it was too late. The flood has begun. Many may even try to swim after the ark, but to no avail. The warning is going out loud and clear today. Exit the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam by exhibiting &nbsp;faith in the blood of Jesus Christ, and leave all your sickness, your problems behind in the blood of the first Adam. Every man or woman who by unbelief remains in the blood of the first Adam, shall be destroyed.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 19:13-20 "The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph are deceived; they have also seduced Egypt, even they that are the stay of the tribes thereof. [14] The LORD hath mingled a perverse spirit in the midst thereof: and they have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof, as a drunken man staggereth in his vomit. [15] Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which the head or tail, branch or rush, may do. [16] In that day shall Egypt be like unto women: and it shall be afraid and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which he shaketh over it. [17] And the land of Judah shall be a terror unto Egypt, every one that maketh mention thereof shall be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the LORD of hosts, which he hath determined against it. [18] In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction. [19] In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to the LORD. [20] And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto the LORD because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them."<br><br>There shall be an altar call in Egypt, and people will run to the altar. They will run to the one and only Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, the second Adam.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 19:21-25 "And the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto the LORD, and perform it. [22] And the LORD shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall return even to the LORD, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them. [23] In that day shall there be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians. [24] In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land: [25] Whom the LORD of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel mine inheritance."<br><br>God smites to heal. He destroys the believer so that the believer is not contaminated. The remnant of Egypt, Assyria, and Israel shall come together in Christ.The remnant of all nations shall come together to the Redeemer, the one who shed His blood for the world. The Lamb of God, the Saviour of mankind.<br><br>&nbsp;The line is drawn. The word has gone out loud and clear. You are either in the blood of the first Adam or in the blood of the second Adam. You cannot be in both. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. Safety is only in Christ!<br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

There will be only one kingdom standing: the kingdom of God.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 18:1 "Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia."<br><br>The woe was then to the nation of Ethiopia. Today, the woe is to every person who does not come and find safety in the blood of the second Adam. Woe to every unbeliever. Every man or woman who has not placed their faith in the blood of the second Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 18:2-4 "That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled! [3] All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when he lifteth up an ensign on the mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet, hear ye. [4] For so the LORD said unto me, I will take my rest, and I will consider in my dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs, and like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest."<br><br>God has lifted up one ensign to the whole world, and that was Jesus Christ hanging on a cross for the redemption of the whole world. This is the only way to God. Jesus Christ is like the sunlight after the rain, the dew In the painful heat of harvest. He is the living water to the parched, thirsty soul.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 18:5-7 "For afore the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches. [6] They shall be left together unto the fowls of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the fowls shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them. [7] In that time shall the present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion."<br><br>Believers from all continents, nations, and tongues shall be guided unto Him. They shall be like a present delivered unto Him. But not so for the unbeliever. They are left for destruction.<br><br>Find safety in the blood of the second Adam. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. Only one kingdom shall stand: the Kingdom of God, in Christ!<br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

When the wrath of God is revealed, destroying every nation, and gathering His remnant unto Himself.<br><br>Damascus will be a heap of ruins.<br><br>Isaiah writes:<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 17:1-3 "The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. [2] The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid. [3] The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts."<br><br>God is always separating. He destroys the unbelieving nations but keeps His remnant, those who have trusted in Him and His blood sacrifice.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 17:4-8 "And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean. [5] And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim. [6] Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel. [7] At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel. [8] And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the images."<br><br>Men will have no confidence in their idols. They will see the true Living God for Who He actually is. We can come to God willingly, we taste &nbsp;the joy of His salvation. He will bring us to our knees to avoid us destroying ourselves. God has made it possible for man not to die lost. That is why God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, and today he's in His men and women reconciling the world to Himself. God doesn't want anyone to go to hell. If salvation is rejected, judgment is the next step.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 17:9-13 "In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and there shall be desolation. [10] Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and shalt set it with strange slips: [11] In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow. [12] Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters! [13] The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind."<br><br>He created all things. He can rebuke the seas and the mountains. He speaks to the wind, and they obey Him. He did that then, and He does it today. He can speak to your mountain, and that mountain has to move. He sent His word and healed them all. He can speak to your disease, and that disease has to flee. He's the same God yesterday, today, and forever. He gathers his remnant and destroys all nations.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 17:14 "And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us."<br><br>Let the God of salvation be your lot. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed him from the first Adam. He separates His remnant from the rest of the world, in Christ!<br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

When we think of Moab, we think about Ruth, who was the wife of Boaz, the kinsman redeemer.<br><br>The Moabites are descendants of Lot from their incestral relationship with their father.<br><br>Genesis 19:36-37 "Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father. [37] And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day."<br><br>This kingdom shall also come to an end, and there will be only one king sitting on the throne of David. The king of kings, the Lord of lords, the second Adam, the blood of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 16:1-5 "Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion. [2] For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon. [3] Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth. [4] Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land. [5] And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness."<br><br>The throne shall be established in mercy. The true judge, the Lord Jesus Christ, shall sit on this mercy seat, just as he sat on the mercy seat in the holy of holies and the tabernacle. He sat in the mercy seat in the holy of holies of Solomon's temple. He sat on the mercy seat on the cross, and today he sits on the mercy seat in heaven, making intercessions for you, me, and for anybody who will believe.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 16:6-12 "We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so. [7] Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab, every one shall howl: for the foundations of Kir–hareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken. [8] For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the principal plants thereof, they are come even unto Jazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they are gone over the sea. [9] Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen. [10] And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the plentiful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine in their presses; I have made their vintage shouting to cease. [11] Wherefore my bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir–haresh. [12] And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail."<br><br>Moab was known for its idolatry, but at this time no idol could help them. No amount of prayer to an idol could relieve them. The dire is cast: Moab is destroyed, and only a remnant, those who by faith have received the one Living God, moved out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. Just like today, that remnant is saved.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 16:13-14 "This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time. [14] But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be contemned, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble."<br><br>The Lord always has a remnant of people who believe Him. Today, He has a remnant of people who have believed Him, moved out of the blood of the first Adam to the second Adam, and have received His Spirit. On the cross, he poured His blood for the whole world. On the day of Pentecost, He poured His Spirit on every believer. There's a remnant who are walking in step with him. They have believed in His blood and have received His Spirit.<br><br>Become a remnant of God. BELIEVE and confess Jesus Christ, the blood of God as we've revealed him from the blood of the first Adam. God always have a remnant, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

These were Mount Nebo and Mount Medeba.<br>Before He brings judgment, God always sends a warning. This was a warning for Moab to turn from idolatry to the one living God.<br><br>Isaiah writes.<br><br>&nbsp;Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 15:1-2 "The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and brought to silence; [2] He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard cut off."<br><br>Instead of turning to the one living God, Moab shall cry unto their idol gods. When a generation or a group of people are not introduced to the one Living God, they will look to things of their hands as gods. Today, we know there's nothing under the sun that can bring us relief because the problem is not outside of us. The problem is us, the problem is blood. Every man or woman finds themselves in the blood of Adam. The solution is to come out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam, Jesus Christ, the image of the true Living God. To bring us into the image of the true Living God. When we exhibit faith in the blood of the second Adam, we escape the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. We now become One with God, in image. We become one blood with God, one light with God, and one image with God. &nbsp;That means the individual is in God, and God is in the individual.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 15:3-7 "In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping abundantly. [4] And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be grievous unto him. [5] My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of destruction. [6] For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing. [7] Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows."<br><br>No matter the abundance of things man and woman may gather under the sun, there is no life outside the kingdom of God. Everything gathered under the sun will come to waste. The only thing that will remain is the kingdom of God, and those in the Kingdom. Jesus Christ, the second Adam, is the gate to the kingdom of God. He is the King and the Way to the Kingdom of God. We go through this Gate by exhibiting faith in Him and His sacrificial work of the Cross.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 15:8-9 "For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beer–elim. [9] For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land."<br><br>If Moab rose up and said, "We repent and we'll turn to the true and Living God," Moab would have been spared. If any man would turn to God today through faith in the shed blood of the second Adam, God will receive them into His Kingdom.<br><br>Enter the kingdom of God. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. There's only one way to the Kingdom of God, and that is, in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

[2] And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors. [3] And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve."<br><br>Israel shall come to the Lord Jesus Christ in repentance. They shall come out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. By this doing, the Lord will give them rest on all sides. Like any man that comes out of the blood of the first Adam to the blood of the second Adam, the Lord protects us on all sides.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 14:4-12 "That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased! [5] The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the rulers. [6] He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, and none hindereth. [7] The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing. [8] Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying, Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us. [9] Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. [10] All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us? [11] Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. [12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!"<br><br>Lucifer, Satan, the devil, is the cause of all the problems in the world. The earth was perfect before Lucifer borrowed the body of a serpent and deceived Eve. The day comes when Lucifer shall be cast out and be put away, and the earth will go back to its original creation. There will be only one kingdom, and that is the Kingdom of God, and only one King, the second Adam, the blood of God, Jesus Christ.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 14:13-17 "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: [14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. [15] Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. [16] They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; [17] That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?"<br><br>Satan is a wicked taskmaster. He openeth not the gate of his prisoners. He keepeth them all in chains through unbelief. The unbeliever is gated in by Satan. The only way to open that gate is through faith, through believing. The unbeliever is gated in the blood of the first Adam. By faith, they can open that gate and enter the blood of the second Adam. Whom the Son, the second Adam, has made free is free indeed. No longer chained or gated by Satan in the blood of the first Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading.:<br><br>Isaiah 14:18-19 "All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. [19] But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet."<br><br>Satan will be cast out. The second Adam will take the reins and shall be peace on earth and forevermore.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 14:20-27 "Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned. [21] Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities. [22] For I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD. [23] I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts. [24] The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand: [25] That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders. [26] This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. [27] For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?"<br><br>No kingdom shall stand but one. There will be only one earthly king, and He will be the King on earth. He will be the King of heaven and earth, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, the second Adam, the blood of God, Jesus Christ.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 14:28-32 "In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden. [29] Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent. [30] And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant. [31] Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his appointed times. [32] What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it."<br><br>Israel will be restored, and so will the world, into the blood of the second Adam.<br><br>Seek refuge in the blood of the second Adam. BELIEVE and confess Jesus Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed him from the first Adam. His Kingdom cometh, in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

[4] The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle. [5] They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land. [6] Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty."<br><br>It is the day of the lost vengeance against sin.<br><br>Lamentations 2:22 "Thou hast called as in a solemn day my terrors round about, so that in the day of the LORD'S anger none escaped nor remained: those that I have swaddled and brought up hath mine enemy consumed."<br><br><br>It will come as a thief in the night.<br><br>2 Peter 3:10 "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."<br><br>The Lord will avenge His adversaries, those who, by unbelief, yet remain in the blood of the first Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 13:7-9 "Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt: [8] And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames. [9] Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it."<br><br>Today is the day of salvation, the day to escape the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. It will be too late on the Day of the Lord. Anyone remaining in the blood of the first Adam shall be destroyed.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 13:10-12 "For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. [11] And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

Inside this deep well is water to quench the spiritual and physical thirst of every man. inside of that deep well is strength, provision, joy, and protection .<br><br>Isaiah declares, "God is my deep well salvation."<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 12:1 "And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me."<br><br>The wrath of God is poured out upon all unrighteous..<br><br>Romans 1:18 "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness."<br><br>The unbeliever places himself as an enemy of God. There is an enmity between God and the unbeliever, the person who does not believe Him.<br>Salvation removes the enmity between God and man. Salvation is when an individual has come to trust in the blood sacrifice of God and is removed out of the blood of Adam into the blood of the second Adam. The individual has becone one with God. They have received the peace of God and are at peace with God The individual can now draw from the deep wells of salvation. Inside this deep well of Salvation is everything that God is. The individual becomes an heir of God and a co-heir with Christ, the second Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 12:2-3 "Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. [3] Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation."<br><br>This deep well of salvation contains everything that an individual needs for living and for godliness. The whole of God has come to live in the individual. The whole of deity is in the individual. That means disease has to leave. Depression has to leave, fear has to leave, even death has to leave.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 12:4-6 "And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted. [5] Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth. [6] Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee."<br><br>Emmanuel is among us. Today, He dwells in the believer, in the Person of the Holy Spirit. He does excellent things through the believer. He follows the believer with signs and wonders.<br><br>Mark 16:17-18 "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; [18] They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover."<br><br>The deep well of salvation contains signs and wonders. The believer is not just an individual who goes to church, &nbsp;does good things and pays their tithe. Signs and wonders in the name of the second Adam are a proof that one is a believer. The individual is drawing from the deep well of salvation. Whatever the saved binds on earth is bound in heaven. Whatever they saved looses on earth and is loosed in heaven.<br><br>Draw from that deep well of salvation. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. The well is deep, in Christ!<br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

This is the earth that God envisioned from the beginning. Adam could not hold his part of the covenant. The old covenant was destroyed. The new covenant is to bring man back to original creation. There came forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse. Jesse was the father of David. This rod is Jesus Christ, the second Adam, the son of David.<br><br>Let's read.:<br><br>Isaiah 11:1-3 "And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: [2] And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; [3] And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:"<br><br>He shall not judge by His five physical senses, but by His sixth sense of faith. We judge wrong when we judge others using our five physical senses. We should discern through our sixth sense of faith. Only God knows the heart of others, and only God can reveal to us the heart of others.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 11:4-5 "But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. [5] And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins."<br><br>Jesus Christ, the second Adam, is the only righteous and faithful judge because he is not contaminated with the blood of the first Adam. He will use the rod of his mouth, which is the word of God. The word of God will defeat Satan in every situation. The weakest believer can use the word of God to defeat Satan at any time. The criteria is that the individual must be one with God through faith in the blood of the second Adam. In oneness with God, the Word of God, from the mouth of the believer will smite Satan, just like the second Adam used the Word of God to destroy all the works of Satan.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 11:6-10 "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. [7] And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. [8] And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den. [9] They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. [10] And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious."<br><br>The glorious days ahead when man is brought back to original creation, where there will be peace on earth and goodwill to all men. Love will abound, and suffering will end. The lion and the lamb shall play together, and all hate shall cease. There will be full knowledge of God. All men would have exited the blood of the first Adam. They have come out of the broken old covenant into a new covenant through their blood of the second Adam.<br><br>We conclude our reading.<br><br>Isaiah 11:11-16 "And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. [12] And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. [13] The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim. [14] But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. [15] And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod. [16] And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt."<br><br>There shall be a Highway to God, and the Highway is the second Adam. He said, "I'm the way." No man comes to God except through faith in the Highway, except through union with the blood of the second Adam. The only uncontaminated blood. The new blood that comes from God in heaven.<br><br>Get on the Highway to God. BELIEVE and confess Jesus Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. There are glorious days ahead, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Judgment begins with those who proclaim to teach the word of God. When the truth of the word of God is taught, it will draw a nation to God. This will attract His blessings. When falsehood is taught, it will bring destruction to the nation. Falsehood draws His wrath.<br><br>Isaiah writes.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 10:1-2 "Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed; [2] To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless!"<br><br>The prescription from these individuals was not from God but for their own selfish gains. It is the people today who have made the gospel a meal ticket for themselves.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 10:3-4 "And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory? [4] Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still."<br><br>The wrath of God is poured out on all unrighteousness.<br>Romans 1:17-18 "For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. [18] For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness."<br><br>It is chastisement in the believer and destruction in the unbeliever.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 10:5-12 "O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation. [6] I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. [7] Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few. [8] For he saith, Are not my princes altogether kings? [9] Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus? [10] As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria; [11] Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols? [12] Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks."<br><br>God will bring down haughty hearts. The nations who look to other gods but not the God of heaven, the only one God who has revealed Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Any man or woman who remains in the blood of Adam through unbelief in the shed blood of the second Adam, the Son of God, has a prideful heart. &nbsp;This is the bane or misfortune of religion.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 10:13-15 "For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man: [14] And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one gathereth eggs that are left, have I gathered all the earth; and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped. [15] Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? or shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if the rod should shake itself against them that lift it up, or as if the staff should lift up itself, as if it were no wood."<br><br>When creation boasts of itself and not the Creator.This is the pride that caused Lucifer to sin. &nbsp;That is the same pride today in the unbeliever.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 10:16-21 "Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire. [17] And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day; [18] And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and they shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth. [19] And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them. [20] And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. [21] The remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God."<br><br>Chastisement is always to bring the believer into a right relationship with God. He chastises whom He loves.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 10:22-33 "For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness. [23] For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land. [24] Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. [25] For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction. [26] And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and as his rod was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt. [27] And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. [28] He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages: [29] They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled. [30] Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth. [31] Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee. [32] As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. [33] Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled."<br><br>A prideful heart and a haughty spirit &nbsp;the Lord hates. He will bring humiliation. He exalts the humble and brings down the proud.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 10:34 "And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one."<br><br>The Lord will be our Father in faith and our adversary in unbelief. Unbelief is the cause of pride, and self-gain. Unbelief is the reason for any way contrary to the word of God.<br><br>Avoid His wrath. &nbsp;Avoid his chastisement. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the Second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the First Adam. He is made a way to satisfy the need of all men and women, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

The people that walk in the blood of the first Adam have seen the Great Light of the second Adam. The Light of the world, and without Him, there is no light anywhere in this world. &nbsp;He is the source of the sunlight and the moral light. The sunlight in creation. The moral light through His blood.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 9:1-2 "Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. [2] The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined."<br><br>The Great Light comes to take us out of the dark land of the shadow of death, which is in the blood of the first Adam, into a place of light and life, which is His blood.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 9:3 "Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil."<br><br>There is nothing but joy in this great light. The man or woman is now born out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. They have seen the Light and by simple faith have become one with the Light. There is no feeling like it. Everything has changed. All things have become new. This is the joy of salvation.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 9:4-6 "For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian. [5] For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire. [6] For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace."<br><br>God wrapped up this Great Light in a new blood, a blood different from the blood of the first Adam. The blood was placed in the womb of Mary, and that blood became a child. That child was born, and his name is Wonderful Counsellor, the Light of the world, the Almiighty God, the Heavenly Father, and the Prince of Peace. If you have seen Him, you have seen the Father. If you have received Him, you have received the Almighty God.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 9:7 "Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this."<br><br><br>The Great Light is the King of the Everlasting Kingdom, the kingdom purchased with His blood when He hung on the cross of Calvary.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 9:8-11 "The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel. [9] And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart, [10] The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars. [11] Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together."<br><br>God is the Father to those who will receive the Great Light and an adversary to those who will reject the Great Light.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 9:12-16 "The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. [13] For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts. [14] Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day. [15] The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail. [16] For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed."<br><br>The people were led by false teachers who kept them in darkness. Any teaching of God that does not bring us out of the blood of the first Adam into the great light of the second Adam is false, no matter how sincere the teachers may be. The end result is destruction.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 9:17-21 "Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. [18] For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke. [19] Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother. [20] And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm: [21] Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still."<br><br>God stretches His Hand in wrath or in blessing. The choice is always ours. The same Hand can be for us or against us, depending on what we've done with the Great Light that He has sent.<br><br>Receive His great Light. Believe and confess Jesus Christ, the Great Light of God, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. The joy in the Light, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

He is the light of the salvation of the believer.

It gives understanding to the simple.<br>In the land of Naphtali, in the land of Zebulun, when God appeared as a man, the people that live in darkness saw a great light. This great light lightened up the whole world. He said, "I am the light of the world." He is the image of God. When a man or woman receives Him, the Word of God, by faith and exits the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam, they are also in the image of God. Until then, the man or woman has a light that is turned off and remains in darkness.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 8:1-18 "Moreover the LORD said unto me, Take thee a great roll, and write in it with a man's pen concerning Maher–shalal–hash–baz. [2] And I took unto me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah. [3] And I went unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bare a son. Then said the LORD to me, Call his name Maher–shalal–hash–baz. [4] For before the child shall have knowledge to cry, My father, and my mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be taken away before the king of Assyria. [5] The LORD spake also unto me again, saying, [6] Forasmuch as this people refuseth the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah's son; [7] Now therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth up upon them the waters of the river, strong and many, even the king of Assyria, and all his glory: and he shall come up over all his channels, and go over all his banks: [8] And he shall pass through Judah; he shall overflow and go over, he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel. [9] Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces. [10] Take counsel together, and it shall come to nought; speak the word, and it shall not stand: for God is with us. [11] For the LORD spake thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me that I should not walk in the way of this people, saying, [12] Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid. [13] Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. [14] And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. [15] And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken. [16] Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. [17] And I will wait upon the LORD, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him. [18] Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion."<br><br>Maher–shalal–hash–bad, the son of Isaiah was a sign to Israel. It's a warning of the coming judgment. Before the flood, at the time of Noah, the Lord gave the world a sign in Methuselah whose name means at his death he shall bring it. Bring what? Bring the flood.<br>Before the coming Great Tribulation, &nbsp;is the Lord giving the world a sign of the light of the Gospel. The gospel light is going to all four corners of the earth.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 8:19 "And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?"<br><br>The believer walks not after dead saints and familiar spirits, but after the living God, Who is alive walking on earth today in the person of the Holy Spirit. The same Light that was from the beginning.<br><br>We conclufe our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 8:20-22 "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. [21] And they shall pass through it, hardly bestead and hungry: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse their king and their God, and look upward. [22] And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness."<br><br>Darkness is simply the absence of light. The absence of the Word of God in the life of a man or a woman. Jesus Christ, the second Adam, the new God's blood covenant is the light. We take our light out of the blood of the first Adam and place it in this blood that is sent, and we become part of the light of the world. We come out of darkness into this great light. We become one with God. One light, one light of the world.<br><br>Turn on your light by faith. BELIEVE and confess Christ the Light of the world, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. Darkness is simply unbelief, in Christ!<br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Without faith, God is unable to work with men. The unbeliever has cut himself off from God which is by his own doing. God doesn't cut anybody off. It's the unbeliever that has cut himself off &nbsp;the source of life.<br><br>God gave the sign to the world; The sign of redemption.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 7:1-2 "And it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it. [2] And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim. And his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood are moved with the wind."<br><br>No conversation is hidden from the Lord. Everything said on earth, is heard by the Lord. Even the deeper things in our thoughts, in our hearts, the hidden plans, are all revealed to the Creator.<br>The Lord revealed their counseling to Isaiah, His prophet.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 7:3-4 "Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear–jashub thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field; [4] And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remailer"<br><br>Fear comes from believing the threats of the devil through men and women.<br>The opposite of fear is believing the word of God The opposite of the spirit of fear is the spirit of love, the spirit of power, and the spirit of a sound mind. This is the Holy Spirit of God. The Holy Spirit of God, is in the Word of God.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 7:5-14 "Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying, [6] Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal: [7] Thus saith the Lord GOD, It shall not stand, neither shall it come to pass. [8] For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people. [9] And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established. [10] Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying, [11] Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. [12] But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD. [13] And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also? [14] Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."<br><br>This is the sign of God. This sign was given about 800 years before the sign became a reality. A virgin conceived and gave birth to Emmanuel, the blood of God becoming the new Adam. The second Adam, taking the place of the first Adam.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 7:15-25 "Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good. [16] For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings. [17] The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria. [18] And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall hiss for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria. [19] And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes. [20] In the same day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired, namely, by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and it shall also consume the beard. [21] And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep; [22] And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land. [23] And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall even be for briers and thorns. [24] With arrows and with bows shall men come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns. [25] And on all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of lesser cattle."<br><br>The counsel is revealed unto Isaiah by the Lord, and the solution is provided by the Lord. If an individual will walk with God in unity, in oneness, God will fight every battle, reveal every counsel of the enemy, and that believer will live in constant victory over every power, dominion, or principality.<br><br>Unite with God through the blood of the second Adam, believing and confessing Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. Nothing is hidden from God, in Christ!<br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

[3] And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory."<br><br>Today, He sits on the Mercy seat. The cross of Christ is the Mercy seat of God. It’s from here that the blood flows. One day, the mercy seat will become the judgment seat. When the mercy of the blood of Jesus Christ. is rejected, the judgment of God is the only thing left.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 6:4-5 "And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. [5] Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts."<br><br>Isaiah realizes he is in the blood of the first Adam.

Then said I, Here am I; send me."<br><br>The same voice is speaking today, asking, "Whom shall I send?" He saves us by cleansing us, drawing us out of the blood of the first Adam into His blood. We leave all the iniquities in the blood of the first Adam. We now become his messengers on earth. Go into all the world and preach the gospel. This is the duty of the man or woman in the blood of this second Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 6:9-10 "And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. [10] Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed."<br><br>&nbsp;We believe with our heart. We understand with our heart. This is what draws us out of the blood of the first Adam. This is how we are converted. This is how we are healed.<br>Those who believe are healed from death unto eternal life. Those who believe not are condemned.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 6:11-13 "Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, [12] And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.

Israel was loved by God, a nation He called, the biological seed of Abraham. But Israel could not walk with God because of the blindness of the blood of the first Adam.<br>Any man or woman in the blood of the first Adam is wise in his own eyes and prudent in his own sight. &nbsp;When the Lord's salvation is rejected, judgment ensues.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 5:1-4 "Now will I sing to my wellbeloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard. My wellbeloved hath a vineyard in a very fruitful hill: [2] And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes. [3] And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard. [4] What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?"<br><br>The natural man or woman, the one still in the blood of the first Adam, can only bear wild grapes. They have no ability to bear fruit unto God. None.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 5:5-6 "And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down: [6] And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor digged; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it."<br><br>Israel had the Word of God and the law of God, but that alone could not bring righteousness. Like all men and women, Israel had to be brought out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. It's the reason the whole world was drowned at the time of Noah, and judgment upon judgment was brought to Israel in the Promised Land.<br>The solution is for Israel to become spiritual seeds of Abraham through the one Seed Who is the second Adam, Jesus Christ.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 5:7-14 "For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry. [8] Woe unto them that join house to house, that lay field to field, till there be no place, that they may be placed alone in the midst of the earth! [9] In mine ears said the LORD of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant. [10] Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and the seed of an homer shall yield an ephah. [11] Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them! [12] And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the LORD, neither consider the operation of his hands. [13] Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. [14] Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it."<br><br>The reality of life in the blood of the first Adam. The end is hell. Hell is enlarged today because men and women have not received the word of God to exit the blood of Adam. They remain wise in their own conceit and religion.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 5:15-23 "And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled: [16] But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness. [17] Then shall the lambs feed after their manner, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat. [18] Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart rope: [19] That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it! [20] Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! [21] Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! [22] Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: [23] Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!"<br><br>Today, it's woe unto them that remain in the blood of the first Adam. God has made a way of escape and that way of escape is simple faith turned on, and the light placed in the blood of the second Adam.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 5:24-30 "Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel. [25] Therefore is the anger of the LORD kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and their carcases were torn in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. [26] And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly: [27] None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken: [28] Whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent, their horses' hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind: [29] Their roaring shall be like a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry it away safe, and none shall deliver it. [30] And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring of the sea: and if one look unto the land, behold darkness and sorrow, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof."<br><br>Darkness and sorrow are a result of rejecting the only way of God. That only way of God is the cross of the second Adam. He is the way, the truth, and the life out of the blood of the first Adam.<br><br>Judgment is set. Everything is pointing to His second coming. BELIEVE and confess Christ the second Adam, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. Today is the day to exit the blood of this first Adam, in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

[21] For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no nor ever shall be.”<br><br>The Gospel is going out before the Great Tribulation. Before God sends judgment, He always sends a warning. The gospel of Jesus Christ is the warning of God. Before He sent judgment to Sodom and Gomorrah, He sent angels to deliver Lot and his family. Jonah was sent to Nineveh before God will destroy the city, and that place was saved because the town believed.<br><br>The light of the Gospel will shine bright right before the Great Tribulation.<br><br>Let's read.<br><br>Isaiah 4:1 “And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.”<br><br>The desperation will be spiritual and physical. Prior to this, has the Trump of God sounded, the dead in Christ have risen, and the believers who are alive are caught up to be with the Lord. The Angel Gabriel announced His first coming. The archangel will announce His second coming. The believer, who has the same Spirit of Christ, the individual who has faith in the blood of the second Adam, is sheltered in the arms of the Savior. The rest of the world is in turmoil.<br><br>We continue our reading.:<br><br>Isaiah 4:2 "In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel."<br><br>There is only one place of escape, and that is in the blood of the second Adam.

[5] And the LORD will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defense.”<br><br>The Lord will lead His people again, just like He did in the wilderness: a pillar of fire by night and a cloud by day. Displaying He was the same God then and the same God today. Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 4:6 "And there shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the daytime from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain."<br><br>Jesus Christ, the second Adam, the blood of God is our tabernacle today. He is our place of refuge. He is our cover from the rain and storms of life.<br><br>Exit the tabernacle of the First Adam into the Tabernacle of the Second Adam. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the Second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the First Adam. There is only one place of refuge from the coming Great Tribulation, and that’s, in Christ!<br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

[4] And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. [5] And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable. [6] When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand: [7] In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.”<br><br>Those in Christ, Who have exited the blood of the first Adam into the second Adam will not see this Great Tribulation.<br><br>1 Corinthians 15:51-54 "Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, [52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. [53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. [54] So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory."<br><br>For those in Christ, the corrupt body from the blood of the first Adam will receive the incorrupt body from the blood of the second Adam.<br>If an individual, through unbelief, remains in the blood of the First Adam, there awaits them this great tribulation.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 3:8-10 “For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory. [9] The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul for they have rewarded evil unto themselves. [10] Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.”<br><br>The righteous is a man or woman who has turned on their light of faith and placed it in the blood of the second Adam. They shall escape the coming day of judgment.<br><br>1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 3:11 "Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him."<br><br>The wicked is the man or woman who remains in the blood of the first Adam, through unbelief. There is a great woe awaiting the unbeliever.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 3:12-13 “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. [13] The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people.”<br><br>At the time of Noah, He judged the whole world with a flood. The whole world was drowned into hell, except for one family, Noah’s.<br><br>&nbsp;Before there is judgment, the Lord sends a clear warning. Noah warned the people over and over, but they would not listen. The Lord is sending a clear warning to the world today to escape the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. Those who listen, like Noah, escaped the judgment, those who remain in unbelief drowned.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 3:14-26 "The LORD will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses. [15] What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? Saith the Lord GOD of hosts. [16] Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: [17] Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will discover their secret parts. [18] In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon. [19] The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers. [20] The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings. [21] The rings, and nose jewels. [22] The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins. [23] The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails. [24] And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty. [25] Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war. [26] And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground."<br><br>Escape the coming great judgment. BELIEVE and confess Christ as the second Adam, as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. There is only one way of escape, and that is, in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

All nations shall come to worship hHm, the One who shed His blood for every believer, the One who has taken the believer out of death into life, from darkness into light. The Prince of Peace will be on earth in this Kingdom Age.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 2:1-4 "The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. [2] 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. [3] And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. [4] And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more."<br><br>There will be no more nations rising against nations. Many would have found a solution to the problem of the world. By one man's disobedience, sin entered the world, and by the righteousness of another man, peace and reconciliation has come to the world. God in Christ reconciling the world to Himself.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 2:5 "O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD."<br><br>We walk in His light, when we take our light out of the blood of the first Adam and place it in His blood by out faith or sixth sense.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 2:6-10 "Therefore thou hast forsaken thy people the house of Jacob, because they be replenished from the east, and are soothsayers like the Philistines, and they please themselves in the children of strangers. [7] Their land also is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land is also full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots: [8] Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made: [9] And the mean man boweth down, and the great man humbleth himself: therefore forgive them not. [10] Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty."<br><br>The sinner fears the Lord. The righteous love the Lord. The sinner runs away from the Lord. The righteous runs to the Lord. The glory of the Lord shall take over the land. It will be a beautiful time for the righteous and a terrible time for the sinner; the man or woman who remains in the blood of Fallen Adam.<br><br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 2:11-17 "The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. [12] For the day of the LORD of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low: [13] And upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan, [14] And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up, [15] And upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall, [16] And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant pictures. [17] And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day."<br><br>There shall be only one kingdom and one King, the kingdom of God and Jesus Christ, the King.<br><br>We continue our reading;<br><br>Isaiah 2:18 "And the idols he shall utterly abolish."<br><br>Every religion shall be abolished. Idolatry shall be ceased. The path of righteousness will shine clear.<br><br>We conclude our reading.<br><br>Isaiah 2:19-22 "And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth. [20] In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; [21] To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth. [22] Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?"<br><br>The glory of His majesty shall shake the world. The idolater will have nowhere to hide. There is only one hiding place, and that is in His blood.<br>The coming of the Lord is near. The ark is prepared for all those who are looking for safety. The ark, it's a shed blood which is being revealed to the world.<br><br>The Prince of Peace is returning like He promised. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the Prince of Peace, as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. We pray, let Thy kingdom come on earth,as it is in heaven, in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

He takes His child up, up, up in the sky, deep into the heavens, that He could allow him to see things that are to come thousands of years later .<br>Isaiah was taken up with God way up in the heavens that he could see the crucifixion of Jesus Christ about 800 years before it happened &nbsp;Isaiah brought the perspective of God to the people.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Isaiah 1:1-2 "The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. [2] Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD hath spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.&nbsp;"<br><br>God made a promise to Abraham in a covenant to &nbsp;bring his seed to the promised land.<br><br>Genesis 15:13,18 "And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; [18] In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:&nbsp;"<br><br><br>This covenant was reinstated when God revealed himself to Moses.<br><br>Exodus 2:24-25 "And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. [25] And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them."<br><br><br>Yet, because they walked in the blood of fallen Adam, they had no means of walking according to the law of God. With the corrupt five physical senses of man inherited through the blood of the first Adam, the natural man walks contrary to the word of God no matter how hard they try.<br><br>Romans 7:17-21 "Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. [18] For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. [19] For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. [20] Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. [21] I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.&nbsp;"<br><br>This problem plagues the natural man and even the believer, unless they understand to live above their five physical senses through their sixth sense of faith in the blood of the second Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading.:<br><br>Isaiah 1:3-4 "The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider. [4] Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward."<br><br>They were in the blood seed of fallen Adam, with their five physical senses corrupted due to the cursed blood of the first Adam. &nbsp;This is the condition of all men and women until they learn how to escape the blood of the first Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 1:5-9 "Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. [6] From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment. [7] Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers. [8] And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city. [9] Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah."<br><br>&nbsp;It was the condition of man in Sodom and Gomorrah. It was a condition of man at the time of Isaiah. It's the condition of man in our world today. Man stuck in the blood seed of fallen Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading.:<br><br>Isaiah 1:10-15 "Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah. [11] To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats. [12] When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts? [13] Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting. [14] Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them. [15] And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood."<br><br>The animal blood sacrifices were to bring them to the ultimate blood sacrifice of the Lamb of God, the second Adam, on the cross of Calvary. The blood of bulls and goats could not take away sin. It could only cover their sins. The people therefore lived constantly in sin until the true Lamb of God hung on the cross, with His blood shed to take away every sin and to be the escape route for every believer to exit the blood of the first Adam and to live, bearing fruit unto God, through the seed of the word.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 1:16-27 "Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; [17] Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. [18] Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. [19] If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: [20] But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. [21] How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers. [22] Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water: [23] Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them. [24] Therefore saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies: [25] And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin: [26] And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city. [27] Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness."<br><br>&nbsp;The true redemption came about 800 years later, when the Redeemer hung on a cross to redeem not just Israel but the whole world back to God. To restore the broken covenant in the Garden of Eden with a new covenant, which began in the Garden of Gethsemane.<br>Today, the believer is heading into a new garden, a new heaven and a new earth, to live permanently with the Father.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Isaiah 1:28-31 "And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed. [29] For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen. [30] For ye shall be as an oak whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water. [31] And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them."<br><br>&nbsp;The choice is always clear: eternal life with God through faith in the blood of the second Adam, or eternal damnation in hell through unbelief in the blood of the first Adam.<br><br>Make your choice today. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. The problem is the first blood, and the solution is the second blood in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

It is greater than death. It is greater than the grave. It is the Love that is no respecter of man or woman. It is the Love that brings together all nations, the Jew and the Gentile. It is the Love that was expressed on an old, ragged cross for whosoever will believe.<br><br>Let's read;<br><br>Song of Solomon 8:1-2 "O that thou wert as my brother, that sucked the breasts of my mother! when I should find thee without, I would kiss thee; yea, I should not be despised. [2] I would lead thee, and bring thee into my mother's house, who would instruct me: I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate."<br><br>The Love of God in the second Adam unites the brothers, the Jew and the Gentile. Nothing can unite man outside the love of God expressed in the second Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 8:3-6 "His left hand should be under my head, and his right hand should embrace me. [4] I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, until he please. [5] Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? I raised thee up under the apple tree: there thy mother brought thee forth: there she brought thee forth that bare thee. [6] Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame."<br><br>How strong is Love? Love is stronger than the greatest army, than disease. Love is stronger than your sin, for Love is God.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 8:7 "Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned."<br><br>&nbsp;Nothing can quench the pursuit of God's love after man. The Love of God chases man even to the gates of hell. God does not want any man to perish, but to come to the saving knowledge of Him through the work of the second Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 8:8-13 "We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts: what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for? [9] If she be a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver: and if she be a door, we will inclose her with boards of cedar. [10] I am a wall, and my breasts like towers: then was I in his eyes as one that found favour. [11] Solomon had a vineyard at Baal–hamon; he let out the vineyard unto keepers; every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand pieces of silver. [12] My vineyard, which is mine, is before me: thou, O Solomon, must have a thousand, and those that keep the fruit thereof two hundred. [13] Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to thy voice: cause me to hear it."<br><br>What God sees is different from what man sees. In the eyes of God, all men are equal. It's difficult for man to see others from that perspective. Jesus Christ, the second Adam, will go to the cross if it was just for you. No matter who you are, you are born with the light of God, and God thought it worthy to redeem you through His sacrificial death. Man, look on the outside. God sees the light inside.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 8:14 "Make haste, my beloved, and be thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the mountains of spices."<br><br>The believer is in love with the lowly shepherd, for they have found life in Him. And nothing can separate the believer from the love which is in Christ Jesus.<br><br>Romans 8:38-39 "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, [39] Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."<br><br>Accept this unquenchable Love. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. Nothing can separate the believer from this Love, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

It pleased God to be connected back to His lost children. This is the love of God.<br><br>The broken covenant was cut in blood. The new covenant must be cut in blood. It has to be blood undefiled. This is the only way for God to have a new bloodline for the whole world. What it must feel like, that everything hinged upon Jesus Christ going to the cross to shed his blood to cut this new covenant . Without that, the whole world is lost. There is no answer to the curse that Adam had bestowed upon creation. This is what makes the Cross of Christ the most important thing in the world. This is why we date everything BC or before Christ and AD or after the death of Christ. It is a pivotal moment in history. Everything revolves around that. Everything: man, God, life, everything revolves around what Jesus Christ did on the cross by shedding his blood.<br><br>The love of God that brought salvation to man.<br><br>Let's read.:<br><br>Song of Solomon 7:1-5 "How beautiful are thy feet with shoes, O prince's daughter! the joints of thy thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a cunning workman. [2] Thy navel is like a round goblet, which wanteth not liquor: thy belly is like an heap of wheat set about with lilies. [3] Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins. [4] Thy neck is as a tower of ivory; thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bath–rabbim: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus. [5] Thine head upon thee is like Carmel, and the hair of thine head like purple; the king is held in the galleries."<br><br>Through love, God doesn't see man as a servant. He sees you as a son, as a child, as a daughter. God sees man in His image, fallen. If only man would believe he can be restored to his original creation. No matter how far the individual may have fallen, if only they will believe, they will be restored back into the image of God.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 7:6-10. "How fair and how pleasant art thou, O love, for delights! [7] This thy stature is like to a palm tree, and thy breasts to clusters of grapes. [8] I said, I will go up to the palm tree, I will take hold of the boughs thereof: now also thy breasts shall be as clusters of the vine, and the smell of thy nose like apples; [9] And the roof of thy mouth like the best wine for my beloved, that goeth down sweetly, causing the lips of those that are asleep to speak. [10] I am my beloved's, and his desire is toward me."<br><br>God seeks oneness with his children:<br>- one in love<br>- one in thought.The mind of Christ.<br>- one in light. The light of the world.<br>- one in word<br>- one in spirit<br><br>&nbsp;We continue our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 7:11-13 "Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages. [12] Let us get up early to the vineyards; let us see if the vine flourish, whether the tender grape appear, and the pomegranates bud forth: there will I give thee my loves. [13] The mandrakes give a smell, and at our gates are all manner of pleasant fruits, new and old, which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved."<br><br>The table is set. The Lamb has been slain. All man has to do is to accept what God has offered: His love on the old rugged cross. For God so loved the world that He gave His blood for anyone who would accept it. They would not perish in the blood of fallen Adam but have everlasting life in the blood of the second Adam.<br><br>Accept God's free love, BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we reveal him from the first Adam. The love of God, which will not stop Its pursuit of man, in Christ!<br><br>&nbsp;<br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

The figurehead was the first Adam. Adam broke his covenant with God. He could not keep the garden. He ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil instead of only eating of the tree of life. Therefore, all men and women were sent away from the garden.<br><br>The second garden is a new heaven and a new earth. The figurehead is the second Adam. He kept His covenant with God. He remains the tree of life. All who believe in Him are kept in this new garden eternally.<br><br>Let's read.<br><br>Song of Solomon 6:1-2 "Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee. [2] My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies."<br><br>Today, He awaits those who have placed their trust in Him. In the&nbsp;Father's house are many mansions.<br><br>John 14:1-3 "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. [2] In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. [3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."<br>'Any man or woman who has reciprocated the Love of God by their free will be with the lowly shepherd, the second Adam in the second garden, eternally.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 6:3 "I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine: he feedeth among the lilies"<br><br>The believer is in Christ, and Christ is in the believer. They have become one:<br>- One in love<br>- One light<br>- One blood<br>- One in word<br>- One in faith<br>- One spirit, the Holy Spirit<br>&nbsp;<br>He became sin Who knew no sin, so that the believer may become the righteousness of God. This is the Love of God.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 6:4-8 "Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners. [5] Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me: thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead. [6] Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them. [7] As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks. [8] There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number."<br><br>All nations, tongues, and ethnicities will come &nbsp;to worship at the feet of the second Adam, the Lamb that was slain for the redemption of the world.<br><br>Revelation 15:4 "Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest."<br><br>For he has secured for the believer a new garden, the second garden through victory over the enemy, to whom the first Adam fell.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Song of Solomon 6:9-13 "My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her. [10] Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners? [11] I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded. [12] Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib. [13] Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies."<br><br>The lowly Shepherd, the second Adam, is a promise keeper. He promised to return to his bride, those who have placed their faith in His shed blood, those who have exited the blood of the first Adam into His blood. His first coming was promised and fulfilled, and so is His second coming.<br><br><br>Live expecting the lowly shepherd, the second Adam, to come for the believer. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. The second garden is promised, in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

He is altogether faithful. He is the Friend that sticks closer than a brother. John the Revelator described His eyes as flames of fire.<br><br>Revelation 1:13-16 "And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. [14] His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; [15] And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice is as the sound of many waters. [16] And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength."<br><br>He is God in the flesh, the Spirit of God, encapsulated by the blood of God. He is the deliverer of the world. This is the beloved of the believer.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Song of Solomon 5:1-2 "I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved. [2] I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night."<br><br>The same voice that spoke to John the Revelator speaks to the heart of every man. He is the answer to the problem of the world, which is the blood of the first Adam. He calls the wolrd to Him.<br><br>Revelation 22:17 "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely."<br><br>He is the only water of life, the water of eternal life. Any other water is death. This water is His blood that was shed on Calvary's cross for all men and women to exit the blood of the first Adam into this blood of life.<br><br>We continue our reading.<br><br>Song of Solomon 5:3-6 "I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them? [4] My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him. [5] I rose up to open to my beloved; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with sweet smelling myrrh, upon the handles of the lock. [6] I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spoke: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer."<br><br>We must watch for His coming. There were ten, but five were not prepared for His coming. They were shut outside the door.<br><br>Matthew 25:2-10 "And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. [3] They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: [4] But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. [5] While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. [6] And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. [7] Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. [8] And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. [9] But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. [10] And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut."<br><br>What will bring us to Him is the Oil, the Holy Spirit in us. The same Holy Spirit that descended on them on the day of Pentecost must be received by the believer.<br><br>We continue our reading.<br><br>Song of Solomon 5:7-15 "The watchmen that went about the city found me, they smote me, they wounded me; the keepers of the walls took away my veil from me. [8] I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if ye find my beloved, that ye tell him, that I am sick of love. [9] What is thy beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest among women? what is thy beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us? [10] My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand. [11] His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy, and black as a raven. [12] His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters, washed with milk, and fitly set. [13] His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh. [14] His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl: his belly is as bright ivory overlaid with sapphires. [15] His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold: his countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars."<br><br>He is the Fairest of Ten Thousand, the Bright and the Morning Star. There are not enough superlatives to describe Jesus Christ, the blood of God, the second Adam, the giver of life eternal. The new God's blood covenant.<br><br>We conclude our reading.<br><br>Song of Solomon 5:16 "His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem."<br><br>He is altogether lovely. He has the word of life. He is life.<br><br>He is knocking on the heart of all men. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. He is the beloved of God and man, in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>
