Letter Four

To those scattered in the world, who love truth and hunger for liberty in the mysteries of Jesus Christ. Know and believe his promises: ^y “He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches; to him that overcomes I will give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows except he that receives it.” ^z “For we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: ^zz which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But as it is written, eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit.”

This pertains to the two-thirds of the Elect of God that are cut off and die. The nations of the world, (the religions, so called churches are not part of God’s Elect. They are his armies, to see if we will be succored by them. And they hate us, as our Lord has said they would. See Luke 16: 8 & 9.

An understanding of words and sayings, uttered in blasphemy by fallen spirits, whose mind is alienated from Christ and became carnal — brutish. In Peter it is written: ^a “These, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption, and will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you, having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They have a heart trained in covetous practices, and are accursed children.” They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, expressing themselves through the emotions and lust of mankind. And further Jude writes: ^b “But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves. Woe unto them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withers, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots.”

Remember the admonition given by our Lord Jesus Christ: ^{c “}Again, you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.’ “But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God’s throne; “nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. “Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. “But let your speech be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: and whatsoever is more than these is of the evil one.” For our Yea, Yea is to amen every word of testimony that is preached of the new testament — that is our inheritance, in the Saints of God. And our Nay, Nay is to ^cc condemn and reject every word and weapon formed against us, and against the grace — that is the new testament — of our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ. By this sword we have our life, our inheritance, with our God and savior, in his kingdom forever.

All sayings uttered with emotions, by base spirits, in those whom they unwittingly use, who ensnared, are without power to withstand them. But here, we consider and understand that our power and strength lies in the knowledge of Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit. For it is written in Isaiah: ^d “He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: ‘by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.’” And so he does — ^e the truth sets us free, as the Spirit teaches us. As it is written: ^f “To know wisdom and instruction; To discern the words of understanding; To receive instruction in wise dealing, In righteousness and justice and equity; To give prudence to the simple, To the young man knowledge and discretion: That the wise man may hear, and increase in learning; And that the man of understanding may attain unto sound counsels: To understand a proverb, and a figure, The words of the wise, and their dark sayings.” For we now know that many fall away for the lack of knowledge and the love for truth, as it is written: ^g “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you shall be no priest to me: seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children.” And again in Jeremiah: “For my people are foolish, they do not know me; they are drunken, foolish children and they have no understanding; they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.” But we brethren have learned not to make images, as in saying, ^h “I’m saved,” for where is the substance? It is written in Isaiah: ^hh Produce your cause, says the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, says the King of Jacob. Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen: let them show the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare to us things to come. Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods: yes, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. Says the apostle Paul: ⁱ “Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live.” And the apostle Peter speaks further: ^j “Giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that you shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacks these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and has forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if you do these things, you shall never fall: For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We know it is a real work, for our warfare is in high places, as the Apostle Paul well describes in his letter to the church at Corinth, ^k “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

y Revelation 2:17. z 1Corinthians 2:7. zz Hebrews 6:4-8, a 2 Peter 2:12. b Jude10. c Matt. 5:33. cc Isaiah 54:17. d Isaiah 53:11. e John 8:32, 14:26, 16:13-15. f Proverbs 1:2. g Hosea 4:6, Jeremiah 4:22. h Exodus 20:4. hh Isaiah 41:21-23. i Romans 8:12. j 2 Peter 1:5. k 2 Corinthians 10:3.

All shook-up: This expression is used at times when one is at a loss — emotionally upset, excited and shaken. This too is an inversion of the condition of which these base spirits fell, for in Hebrews it is written in the spirit of their shaking: ^m “But you are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels, to the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaks to better things than that of Abel. See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven: Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he has promised, saying, ‘Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.’ And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire.”

m Hebrews 12:22.

Barrow from Peter to pay Paul: This saying is often expressed of those borrowing from one to pay another. This also is an inversion, implying that it is necessary to take from the office of the gospel of circumcision: of which is the Apostle Peter’s ministry, to give to the office of the gospel of uncircumcision: that is the Apostle Paul’s ministry. The old circumcision of the flesh is what these spirits are speaking of — that brings one back under the letter of the law: ⁿ “If therefore the uncircumcision keep the ordinances of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision? and shall not the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law? For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh: but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.”

n Romans 2:26.

Bastard, you bastard: One who could not endure chastisement and has no rights as granted to the heirs of the father. Note in Hebrews: ^o “For whom the Lord loves he chastens, and scourges every son whom he receives. If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father does not chasten? But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are you bastards, and not sons. Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?”

o Hebrews 12:6.

Between a rock and a hard place: This saying is uttered by one who is caught in a dilemma (see Luke 16 : 8,9) and expresses themselves by this saying. For they were found unfaithful, as in the parable of the ^p unfaithful steward, who compromised his office and was put out — that was a hard place. The Rock is that corner stone he rejected in his unfaithfulness. Jesus said to them, ^q “Did you never read in the scriptures, ‘The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?’ Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. And he that falls on this stone shall be broken to pieces: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.”

p Luke 16:1. q Matthew 21:42.

Bite the hand that feeds you: This is said of a dog, but in the spirit, ^r the dogs of hell, ^s who fell and still fall away from the truth — bit the hands of those who administered the Gospel, the way of truth.

r 2 Peter 2:21. s Hebrews 6:4.

Big house, sent to the big house: Wording used by convicted criminals, when they are sent to prison. Again this is an inversion of truth by these fallen spirits, for they see truth as bondage. For the place where God has created for his people, is very great and wonderful, as it is written in John of Jesus Christ: ^t “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.” In the Psalms it is written: ^u “He brought me forth also into a large place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.” Every time we regenerate, our kingdom gets larger. For by the righteousness of God, the knowledge, peace, joy, love and fellowship increases.

t John 14:2. u Psalms 18:19.

Blowing hot air: Empty, exaggerated talk, of the world. Jude writes of these spirits: ^v “These are murmurs, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaking great swelling words, having men’s persons in admiration because of advantage.” As well Peter writes: ^w “These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever. For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, the dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.”

v Jude 16. w 2 Peter 2:17.

Blow you to kingdom come: In their rage, to destroy one, the worst thing they could fantasize is the kingdom of God. Hence: the spirits of the kingdoms of this world, minister a“wind: doctrine,” that will bring that one into their “kingdom.” ^ww Having done so, they make that one more a child of hell than they are.

ww Matthew 23:15.

Boner, you pulled a boner: Said of one who made a blunder or an error. ^x The fallen spirits made the greatest error in crucifying the Lord of glory. It is in the bones that life giving blood cells are created. Not a bone of his body was broken, signifying the eternal regeneration process: ^y “For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.”

x Hebrew 6:6. y John 19:33, Psalms 34:20.

Bull shit: This utterance is expressed when another’s word is held in scorn. In the 22^nd Psalm, the lies, suffering and torture of the crucifixion are described: ^yy “Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.” For they called truth a lie and put out the true light — hence: bullshit.

yy Psalm 22.

Burn your bridges behind you: This expression implies, that one is creating the conditions that make it impossible to return to the former state of affairs. So it is with these filthy dreamers, ^z they have crucified to themselves the Son of God. There is no way back for them — ^a "blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.”

z Hebrews 6:6. a Matthew 12:31.

Come out of the closet: This is an inversion of Christ and the Bride of Christ, coming out of the closet, as expressed by homosexuals and lesbians, possessed by base fallen spirits. Christ teaches us: ^b “But you, when you pray, enter into your closet, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father which is in secret; and your Father which sees in secret shall reward you openly.” Here the word closet is taken from the Greek, ταμειον, pronounced tam-i’-on. It means a storage chamber, a storeroom, especially, an inner chamber, a secret room.

In Joel, Closet reads as follows: ^c “Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.” The word here is Hebrew, pronounced khoop-paw and it translates to chamber, room, canopy, closet, divine protection. Whereas the bridegroom’s chamber translates from the Hebrew word, pronounced kheh’-der. Meaning: chamber, room, parlor, innermost or inward part, within. The two meanings sound almost alike. However the difference is, that the bride is receiving what is that of the groom’s and this is where the marriage is taking place.

The inversion is brought about by the perversion of fallen spirits, and their fall is well recorded in Paul’s letter to the Romans: ^{d ”}For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.” ^dd(That is a condition: serpent, dog, pig and so on.) “Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature” (the condition) ”more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also, the men, leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that compensation of their error which was necessary. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only to do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”

As the children of God are born again, by the ^e washing of the Word and renewing of the Holy Spirit, that comes from the heart and so preached by the mouth. So the judgement of God unto these filthy dreamers, is to eternally play this role, that they do with their mouth. For they are trying to regenerate — in the trap they are taken in — expressing the acts in whoever can be deceived by them. ^f These spirits are murders and are guilty of the crucifixion of our savior, as well the whole nation — the Body of Christ. That is why there is no way back for them — we are dead to them and they to us. They have blasphemed the Holy Spirit and there is no forgiveness to them.

b Matthew 6:6. c Joel 2:16. d Romans 1:18. dd 2Peter 2:17-22, Proverbs 26:11, e Ephesians 5:26, Titus 3:5. f Hebrew 6:6, Romans 1:26-29.

Dog gone it, I’ll be dog gone: To go into the ^g condition of a dog — to return to that old state that they were redeemed from — its vomit.

g 2 Peter 2:21-22.

Dog, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks: At the point of doctrine that fallen spirits made images to the principles of the kingdom of God, through adultery, and fornication — like a whore doing tricks, this became the core doctrine of their kingdom. ^h These religions, that is the kingdoms of the world, will not add to or change their doctrine. Therefore, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks — that is to say fornications and adultery through imagery: idolatry.

h Joel 2:7.

Don’t cry over spilt milk: ⁱ Pertaining to the milk of the Word — the hearer of the word was told not to wept over that, which was lost to carnality — a pig might wound one, at such times as that.

: ⁱ Hebrews 5:12-14.

Don’t hit me no more, I’ll tell you the truth: This saying is a mockery of Jesus Christ and has been used in movies and jokes, depicting someone being beaten until they could bear it no more. In John it is written: ^j “Jesus answered Pilate, ‘You say that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.’ Pilate said unto him, ‘What is truth?’ Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.” Isaiah has prophesied so very well of this great mystery: ^k “Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed? For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he has no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.”

“Surely he has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.”

“Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he has put him to grief: when you shall make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: ‘by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he has poured out his soul unto death:’ and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.”

j John 18:37. k Isaiah 53.

Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out: This is said to one leaving the room, in an insulting, demeaning tone. Here in John we read about this door — ^l “I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.” — and find, it is this very door, that is directing the dismissal of those unworthy guest, portrayed at the wedding: ^m “And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: And he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you come in here without wedding clothes?’And he was speechless. Then said the king to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen.’” ⁿ Those not chosen are the children of the kingdom and shall be cast out into outer darkness. In their rebellion and holding the promises of God in contempt, the curses of God came upon them and still does, to the uttermost. We see the foreshadow of this in Deuteronomy: ^o “He shall lend to you, and you shall not lend to him: he shall be the head, and you shall be the tail. Moreover all these curses shall come upon you, and shall pursue you, and overtake you, till you be destroyed; because you harkened not unto the voice of the LORD your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded you: And they shall be upon you for a sign and for a wonder, and upon your seed forever. Because you served not the LORD your God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things.”

l John 10:9. m Matthew 22:11-14. n Matthew 8:11-12, Hebrews 6:4-6. o Deuteronomy 28:15-47.

Drunken Fool, or poor drunken fool: Said of one delirious with strong drink: intoxicated. The Apostle Paul addresses this condition in spirit to the Ephesians: ^p “Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be you not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess ^pp( he is speaking of the flesh and blood of our Savior: do not make images to, but wait on the spirit to bring all things to light.); but be filled with the Spirit. (That is, be sober in the knowledge of Christ); Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”For the Lord speaks in Luke: ^q “Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord shall make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of meat in due season? Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he comes shall find so doing. Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he has. But and if that servant says in his heart, my lord delays his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken. The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looks not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.”

p Ephesians 5:16-20. pp John 6:53-54. q Luke 12:43-46.

Even-Stephen: Having nothing due or owed on either side: an even-stephen transaction. This is the world’s understanding of this saying. In his office as deacon: which is to serve in the mysteries and revelations of Jesus Christ. He well reproved the enemies of the church and then was slain by them: ^r “You stiff-necked people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are just like your fathers: You always resist the Holy Spirit! Was there ever a prophet your fathers did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One. And now you have betrayed and murdered him — you who have received the law that was put into effect through angels but have not obeyed it.”

“When they heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him. But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. ‘Look,’ he said, ‘I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.’”

“Meanwhile, the witnesses laid their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul.

While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, ‘Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.’ Then he fell on his knees and cried out, ‘Lord, do not hold this sin against them.’ When he had said this, he fell asleep.”

Stephen was even with them, for he was dead to the world and the world to him. The name Stephen means “crowned,” and he was — with eternal life.

r Acts 7:51-60.

Every dog has his day: That’s right! ^s Then they fell away. It happened to them according to the true proverb. They had the light and put it out, now they are in a darkness, where no man can work. That is the works of salvation: Belief, love, hope, faith, patience, forbearance, zeal, a press and all good works.

s Hebrews 6:4-6, 2 Peter 2:20-22, John 9:4-5.

Family violence: Christ spoke according to Luke: ^t “Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division; for from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two, and two against three. “They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.” This is true family violence, for it is between the outer man and the inner man. It is written in Proverbs: ^u “say unto wisdom, you are my sister; and call understanding your relative.” It is a violence described in Paul’s letter to the Galatians: ^v “But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. For it is written, ‘Rejoice, you barren that did not give birth; break forth and cry, you that travailed not: for the desolate has many more children than she which has an husband.’ Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.” In the letter to the Romans we read in this manner: ^w “For we know that the Law is spiritual; but I am of flesh, sold into bondage to sin. For that which I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. But if I do the very thing I do not wish to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that it is good. So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the wishing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. For the good that I wish, I do not do; but I practice the very evil that I do not wish. But if I am doing the very thing I do not wish, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wishes to do good. For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind, and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members. Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin.” For this violence is between: Wisdom of the flesh and wisdom of the spirit, understanding and understanding, knowledge and knowledge, love and love and so forth. Hence: the outer of the flesh and inner man of the spirit.

t Luke 12:51-53. u Proverbs 7:4. v Galatians 4:26-29. w Romans 7:14-25.

For Heaven’s sake : This saying can be seen in the parable of the prodigal son: ^x “And when he came to himself,” he said: “How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before you, and I am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hired servants.” Having sinned against heaven! How is this? It is on this wise: Heaven is a realm of Love, righteousness, peace, joy, fellowship and more. It is this that was destroyed by his riotous living and this is how he sinned against heaven. Hence the expression: for heaven’s sake!

x Luke 15:17-19.

For Pete’s sake: This inversion has to with the office of circumcision. For the apostle Peter’s office is the office of circumcision. So writes Paul to the Galatians: ^y “they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter.” It is the circumcision of the heart, in the spirit, that makes one a Jew. ^z “If therefore the uncircumcised man keeps the requirements of the Law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision? And will not he who is physically uncircumcised, if he keeps the Law, will he not judge you who though having the letter of the Law and circumcision are a transgressor of the Law? For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh. But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that which is of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; and his praise is not from men, but from God.” These base spirits are under the curse of the letter of the law, and shall be forever. Hence they say, “For Pete’s sake.”

y Galatians 2:7. z Romans 2:26-29.

Go jump in the lake!: To fall away from the mind of Christ — the second death: ^a for many are called but few are chosen. ^aa “And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.” “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. ^b But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

^bb This lake is that place where they are ever learning and never coming to the knowledge of the truth. ^c For as our God is a consuming fire, so are we: his people. ^cc This fountain that flows up out of us, flows to that lake: there they always oppose us — and exist in a living death. ^d As our testimony comes forth, it is the sound of many waters: for the Spirit speaks in us: the testimony of Jesus Christ.

a Matthew 22:14, 2Peter 2:13, Jude 12. aa Revelation 20:14-15. b Revelation 21:8. bb 2Timothy 3:1-9. c Hebrews 12:29. cc John 7:37-39. d Revelation 1:15.

Go to hell! : To be converted by hypocrites to a kingdom of the world. ^dd “Woe to you, scribes, Pharisees and hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.” Consider the waters where the whore sits.

^e “And he said unto me, the waters which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.”

dd Matthew 23:15. e Revelation 17:15.

Go to the John: To go to the toilet. To use this saying is to degrade, to blaspheme the Grace of Christ. The very name John, means Jehovah is a gracious giver. ^ee Under the curse of God, their lot is to be of the tail, not the head — and it gives understanding as to why they would think the toilet would give good things.

ee Deuteronomy 28:44.

Hair, I wouldn’t hurt a hair on your head: This is said by base spirits as though they could do any harm — in mock friendship. But our Savior says: ^f “I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. And you shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And you shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake. But there shall not an hair of your head perish. In your patience you possess your souls.

See: Family violence.

f Luke 21:15-19.

Heads or tails: This saying is an inversion of the decisions that are made concerning the blessings and curses, given by Moses: ^g “The LORD shall open unto you his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto your land in his season, and to bless all the work of your hand: and you shall lend unto many nations, and you shall not borrow. And the LORD shall make you the head, and not the tail; and you shall be above only, and you shall not be beneath; if that you hearken unto the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day, to observe and to do them.” All this is a figure, speaking to the promises of the grace of God that is given unto us, through our Savior.

g Deuteronomy 28:12-13.

Hell’s Bells Man: This base utterance makes light of an effort, in another, by boasting in this utterance. The bells are a figure that we approach the Lord in holiness. For his command is, ^h “you be holy, as I am holy” ⁱ “A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about. And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goes in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when he comes out, that he die not. And you shall make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.” ^j “In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD’S house shall be like the bowls before the altar.”

h Leviticus 20:7, 1 Peter 1:15-16. i Exodus 28:34-36. j Zechariah 14:20.

I don’t want to set the world on fire: This too is an inversion, for as they fell and do fall away, their world is caught afire, ^{k “}For our God is a consuming fire.”

k Hebrews 12:29.

If I’m lying, I’m dying: Indeed, they lie, they die. ^l “Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish ( ^ll one cannot perish, unless one has something to perish from.); because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

l 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12. ll Hebrews 6:4-6.

It’s a jungle out there: Yes, every creature, that is condition: serpent, dog, swine and so forth. We are warned of them — our savior, admonishes us: ^m “Do not give what is holy to dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.” And John marks them well: ⁿ “But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?” Of Benjamin’s testimony we see the wolf: ⁿⁿ If you therefore, my children, walk in holiness according to the commandments of the Lord, you shall again dwell securely with me, and all Israel shall be gathered unto the Lord. And I shall no longer be called a ravening wolf on account of your ravages, but a worker of the Lord distributing food to them that work what is good. And there shall arise in the latter days one beloved of the Lord, of the tribe of Judah and Levi, a doer of His good pleasure in his mouth, with new knowledge enlightening the Gentiles. Until the consummation of the age shall he be in the synagogues of the Gentiles, and among their rulers, as a strain of music in the mouth of all. And he shall be inscribed in the holy books, both his work and his word, and he shall be a chosen one of God forever.

These creatures are the conditions we find in this warfare. They are the strong meat that we, when we come of age, do eat. Therefore Peter does feed us, as our Savior commanded him: ^o “‘Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me?’ He said unto him, ‘Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.’ He said unto him, ‘Feed my sheep.’” ^oo The creatures are the beasts in the sheet, let down from heaven, in the vision of the apostle Peter, on the roof at Joppa. These creatures are the conditions loved and worshiped by those described in the apostle Paul’s letter to the Romans: ^p ”Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever.”

It will all come out in the wash: The lies and unrighteousness are washed out in the washing of regeneration. ^q “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior.”

q Titus 3:5-6.

Judge not that you be not judged: This statement is always used by these spirits, as they do not want to be brought to account — for they never fully quote it. They know it will be measured back unto them; therefore, they do not want judgement. ^{r ”} Do not judge lest you be judged. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.”

The righteous want judgement, for without it we cannot live — ^rr it is at the heart of the law.

r Matthew 7:1-2. rr Matthew 23:23.

We read of Luke below. It is a blatant lie of Satan and antichrist. It is blatant because it has been sounding since the17^th century and not any has sounded an alarm.

Lukewarm: The people of God have the gospel of Luke ¾ containing Mary, Elizabeth, Zacharias, Simeon and Anna’s prophecies, as well chapter 16:8-9 that expounds on the kingdoms that may be entered into, if received ¾ and the book of Acts by Luke and he certainly was not and is not tepid, warm or indifferent. He gave a wonderful account of the gospel and was and still is a bright and shining star. In Revelations 3:16 the Greek word: chliaros (pronounced khlee-ar-os) is translated to lukewarm. Yet lukewarm ¾ that came into use in the 14^th century and latter used in translation of the scripture in the 17^th century ¾ is not in the Greek New Testament. The Greek translates to: warm, tepid or indifferent. Hence: Rev 3:16 “So then because you are Lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth”. This was put there by Satan and antichrist, this error was made to appear as though it came right out of the mouth of Jesus Christ. This fulfills the scripture: 1 Corinthians 14:21 “In the law it is written, “With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, says the Lord””. For the religions, kingdoms and churches of this world have their own translations of scripture. So in Joel chapter two, we read of them.

In Hebrews 12:29 We read: For our God is a consuming fire Therefore all of our people are. Our Father will not tolerate: tepidness or coldness, for we must be a consuming fire. But not of that spirit, that expresses it’s self by uttering: I’m bad, that be cool man, expressed by many.

Dear brethren you have the Spirit of the God of truth and as the beloved apostle has written, you know all things. What is very evident, is that they of the kingdoms of this world are carnal in all that they say and do. For they love this life and do not want to follow Jesus Christ into the regeneration. Thank God for you that loved not your life unto death.

In 1 John 2:20 –21 It is written: But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth. I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth.

Misery loves company: ^{s “}And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. And I say unto you, make to yourselves friends of the mammon: riches of unrighteousness; that, when you fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.” Here it is understood that it is better to be in the company of the children of this world, than to be in outer darkness alone. Hence the saying: misery loves company.

s Luke 16:8-9.

No name son-of-a-bitch: One as described in Hebrews. ^v “For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, and have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.” This is the very apposite of what is promised to the elect children of God. In Revelations, the Spirit speaks in this manner: ^vv “He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches; to him that overcomes will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows except he that receives it.” Therefore we understand that the ungodly do not overcome and fall away not receiving a new name Hence: a no name son-of-a-bitch. As a ^w dog returns to his vomit, so a fool returns to his folly.

v Hebrews 6: 4-6. vv Revelations 2:17. w Proverbs 26:11.

No way Hosea: Hosea means “Salvation,” saying there is no way to salvation — of which Jesus Christ is the way, thereby denying Christ.

Oh my goodness! : One declaring one’s own self righteousness — not that righteousness that comes from the God of truth. ^ww Our savior has admonished us to seek God’s righteousness.

ww Matthew 6:33.

Out of sight, out of mind: Here in Jeremiah, it is prophesied in a figure of what is and what is to come in the spirit, to the falling away and alienation from the mind of Christ. ^x “Then said the LORD unto me, though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth. And it shall come to pass, if they say unto you, Where shall we go forth? then you shall tell them, Thus says the LORD; such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity. And I will appoint over them four kinds, says the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy. And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem. For who shall have pity upon you, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan you? or who shall go aside to ask how you do? You have forsaken me, says the LORD, you are gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against you, and destroy you; I am weary with repenting. And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people, since they return not from their ways.”

^y It is recorded in many places.

x Jeremiah 15:1-7, 2Kings 20:1-18. y Romans 1, Hebrews 6.

Pig: One who has crucified Jesus Christ to themselves. These are the lawless, and in their fall to carnality, they wound many and trample the words of those who would enter the kingdom of God. ^z “For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.” ^zz In Matthew, Jesus warns us, concerning dealing with swine, “Give not that which is holy unto dogs, neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.” As the pearl speaks to the gates into the kingdom of God, so these ungodly creatures thus rend and destroy the testimony of the one so wounded by their perverted doctrine, that the wounded one, may not recover and enter into the kingdom of God.

z 2 Peter 2:20-22. zz Matthew 7:6.

Scared the hell out of me: In mockery of what truth can do.

Screw you! : To commit adultery and fornication in spirit, in the manner of swine, ^a for they impede the entrance into the kingdom of God, of those they encounter. If fruitful, this condition will multiply. God has created this animal’s penis, shaped as a “screw auger,” hence: screw or screw you.

a Matthew 7:6.

Simon says: Whereas the apostle Peter (Simon Peter) administers strong meats and is of the office pertaining to circumcision, he and his office has been reduced to a child’s game by those who have fallen away from the way of truth. For in their meetings, they play the game: stand, sit, sing, speak, give and whatever their images demand — so they play, the “Simon says” game. As it is written: ^aa For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and it shall be turned into fables.

aa 2 Timothy 4:3

Sit on the throne: To go to the toilet — an inversion, speaking of the throne of Christ.

Son-of-a-bitch: ^b One who has been converted, by one who has crucified Jesus Christ to them self.

b Matthew 23:15.

Sent up the river: The river of life — to the fallen spirits a place of imprisonment. ^bb It is that river that springs forth from us.

bb John 7:37-39.

The world is my oyster: Pertaining to the gates of pearls: that is the testimony that we overcome by: having failed in their stewardship, they look to be received into a habitation of some kingdom that they may compromise with. ^c “There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods. And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of you? give an account of your stewardship; for you may be no longer steward. Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord takes away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig: (he buried it in carnality); to beg I am ashamed (without meekness). I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses. So he called every one of his lord’s debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much do you owe to my lord? And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take your bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty. Then said he to another, And how much do you owe? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take your bill, and write fourscore. And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon (riches) of unrighteousness; that, when you fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.”

c Luke 16:1-9.

TWOT: This saying is used as slang in the inversion, to refer to a woman or girl’s vagina. Here the word is taken from the abbreviation of: Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament.

We will sell no wine before its time: This inversion, is in blasphemy of the new wine and therefore blasphemes the Holy Spirit. It is not for sale – for Isaiah says: ^cc “Ho, every one that thirsts, come you to the waters, and he that has no money; come you, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.”

cc Isaiah 55:1.

What’s up Doc: And Jesus Christ said unto them, ^d “You will surely say unto me this proverb,

Physician, heal yourself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in your country.” He was speaking of when he would be hanging from the cross. It is interesting to note that the cartoon character, Bugs Bunny became famous only after the expression: “What’s up Doc,” was added to his speech. The hare being an unclean animal, it stands to reason why it became so popular to the world.

d Luke 4:23.

Who pulled your chain? : A spiritual dog, speaking from its place of reprobateness, that it fell into and is reserved there in darkness. Hence in Peter: ^e “But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingers not, and their damnation slumbers not. For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly;

As well, Jude: ^f “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that you should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. I will therefore put you in remembrance, though you once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.”

e 2 Peter 2:1. f Jude 3-7.

You’re all washed up: An inversion of the regeneration process — meaning you are finished, as in failed

You know: This saying is, to imply that you are in the knowledge of the testimony of Jesus Christ, when it is not there. Hence to cause one to concur with their lie. ^g “And Jesus said, ‘For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.’ And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? Jesus said unto them, ‘If you were blind, you should have no sin: but now you say, we see; therefore your sin remains.’”

For when the truth is established, it is by the indwelling Spirit of God, in those, of that holy communion. For John speaks on this wise, ^h “They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. But you have an unction from the Holy One, and you know all things. I have not written unto you because you know not the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.”

g John 9:39-41. h 1John 2:19-21.

Dear brethren and you who love truth, in the mysteries of Jesus Christ. Understand, the reprobated sayings are as endless as the eternal judgement of those that have fallen from the truth. But we in all holy conversation understand in spirit, that through the sober knowledge of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, we realize our warfare, as ministered by our beloved Paul to the Ephisians: ^h “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel.”

h Ephisians 6:10.

Amen,
