And measures and matters of The Truth of the "time" we are in ...how "man" ..."thought to change time and times ... Dearly beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, how that one day is with the Lord, as a thousand year, and a thousand year as one day.
The Lord is not slack to fulfil his promise, as some men count slackness: but is patient to us ward, and would have no man lost, but would receive all men to repentance.
creteis@yahoo.com Behold in a dream during the dread nightmare of the dark season ...of the times and time ..of the season of man ...see son of man ...
and in the midst of the darkness of the night ...before the day ...
even the utter darkness ...before the day.
and words came without speaking ...
even as an out pouring...
and the words were: "drink the oil"
and scripture came back to remembrance ...
If any soul will offer a meatoffering unto the Lord, his offering shall be fine flour, and he shall pour thereto oil, and put frankincense theron, and shall bring it unto Aarons sons the Priests. And one of them shall take thereout his handful of the flour, and of the oil with all the frankincense, and burn it for a memorial upon the altar: an offering of a sweet savour unto the Lord. And the remnant of the meatoffering shall be Aarons and his sons, as a thing most holy of the sacrifices of the Lord. If any man bring a meatoffering that is baked in the oven, let him bring sweet cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil. If thy meatoffering be baked in the frying pan, then it shall be of sweet flour mingled with oil. And thou shalt mince it small, and pour oil theron: and so is it a meatoffering. If thy meatoffering be a thing broiled upon the gridiron, of flour mingled with oil it shall be. And thou shalt bring the meatoffering that is made of these things unto the Lord, and shalt deliver it unto the priest, and he shall bring it unto the altar, and shall heave up part of the meatoffering for a memorial, and shall burn it upon the altar: an offering of a sweet savour unto the Lord. And that which is left of the meatoffering shall be Aarons and his sons, as a thing that is most holy of the offerings of the Lord.
All the meatofferings which ye shall bring unto the Lord, shall be made without leaven. For ye shall neither burn leaven nor honey in any offering of the Lord: Notwithstanding ye shall bring the firstlings of them unto the Lord: But they shall not come upon the altar to make a sweet savour.
All thy meatofferings thou shalt salt with salt: neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meatoffering: but upon all thine offerings thou shalt bring salt.
If thou offer a meatoffering of the first ripe fruits unto the Lord, then take of that which is yet green, and dry it by the fire and beat it small, and so offer the meatoffering of thy first ripe fruits. And then pour oil thereto, and put frankincense theron: and so it is a meatoffering. And the priest shall burn part of the beaten corn and part of that oil, with all the frankincense, for a remembrance. That is an offering unto the LordThis is the word of the Lord, that came to Joel the son of Phatuel: Hear O ye elders: ponder this well, all ye that dwell in the land: if ever there happened such a thing in your days, or in the days of your fathers. Tell your childern of it , and let them show it to their children, and so they too certify their posterity thereof. Look what the caterpillar hath left, that hath the grasshopper eaten up: what the grasshopper left, that hath the locust eaten up: and what the locust hath left, that hath the blasting consumed. Wake up ye drunkards, and weep: mourn all ye wine sippers because of your sweet wine, for it shall be taken away from your mouth. Yee a mighty and an innumerable people shall come up into my land: these have teeth like the teeth of Lyons, and chaftbones like the lioness. They shall make my vineyard waste, they shall pull off the bark of my fig trees, strip them bare, cast them away, and make the branches white.
Make thy moan as a virgin doth that gird herself with sack, because of her bride groom. For the meat and drink offering shall be taken away from the house of the Lord: and the priests the Lords ministers shall mourn. The field shall be waste, the land shall be in a miserable cause: for the corn shall be destroyed, the sweet wine shall come to confusion, and the oil utterly desolate. The husband men and the wine gardeners shall look pitifully and make lamentation, for the wheat, wine and barley, and because the harvest upon the field is so clean destroyed. The grape gathers shall make great moan, when the vineyard and the fig trees be so utterly wasted. Yee all the pomegranates, palm trees, apple trees, and the other trees of the field shall waste away. Thus the merry cheer of the childern of men shall come to confusion.
Gird you , and make your moan, O ye priests: mourn ye ministers of the alter: go your way in, and sleep in sack cloth, O ye officers of my God: for the meat and drink offering shall be taken away from the house of your God. Proclaim a fasting, call the congregation, gather the elders and all the inhabitors of the land together in to the house of the Lord your God, and cry unto the Lord: alas, alas for this day. And why? the day of the Lord is at hand, and cometh as a destroyer from the Almighty. Shall not the meats be taken away before our eyes, the mirth also and joy from the house of our God? The seed shall perish in the ground, the gardens shall be laid waste, the floors shall be broken down, for the corn shall be destroyed. O what a fighting make the cattle? the bullocks are very evil liking, because they have no pasture: and the sheep are famished away.
O' Lord, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath consumed the goodly pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burnt up all the trees of the field. Yee the wild beasts cry also unto thee, for the water rivers are dried up, and the fire hath consumed the pastures of the wildernessTell your brethren, that they are my people: and your sister, that they have obtained mercy. As for your mother, ye shall chide with her, and reprove her: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband, unless she put away her whoredoms out of my sight, and advoutry from her breasts. If no I shall strip her naked, and set her, even as she came into the world: yee I shall lay her waste, and make her like a wilderness, and slay her for thirst. I shall have no pity also upon her children, for they be the children of fornication.
Their mother hath broken her wedlock, and she that bare them, is come into confusion. For she said: I will go after my lovers, that give me my water and bread, my wool and flax, mine oil and my drink. But I will hedge her way with thorns, and stop it, that she shall not find her footsteps: and she though she run after her lovers, yet she shall not get them: she shall seek them, but not find them. Then shall she say: well I will go turn again to my first husband, for at that time was I better at ease, then now. But this would she not know, where as I yet gave her corn, wine, and oil, silver and gold, which she hanged upon Baall.
Wherefore now will I go take my corn and wine in their season, and set again my wool and my flax, which I gave her to cover her shame. And now will I discover her foolishness, even in the sight of her lovers, and no man shall deliver her out of my hands. Moreover I will take away all her mirth, her holy days, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts: I will destroy her vineyards and fig trees, though she sayeth: lo, here are my rewards, that my lovers have given me. I will make it a wood, and the wild beasts shall eat it up. I will punish her also for the days of Baall, wherein she censed him, decking him with her earrings and chains: when she followed her lovers, and forgat me, saith the Lord.
Wherefore behold, I will call her again bring her into a wilderness, and speak friendly unto her: there will I give her, her vineyards again, yee and the valley of *Achor to show her hope and comfort. Then shall she sing there as in the time of her youth, and like as in the day when she came out of the land of Egypt. Then ( saith the Lord she shall say unto me: O my husband, and shalt call me no more Baali: for I will take away those names of Baall from her mouth, yee she shall never remember their names any more. Then will I make a covenant with them, with the wild beasts, with the fowls of the air, and with everything that creepeth upon the earth.
As for the bow, sword and battle, I will destroy such out of the land, and will make them to sleep safely. Thus I will marry thee unto mine own self forevermore: yee even to myself will I marry thee, in righteousness, in equity, in lovingkindness, and mercy. In faith also will I marry thee unto myself, and thou shalt know the Lord. At the same time will I show myself friendly and gracious unto the heavens, sayeth the Lord: and the heavens shall help the earth, and the earth shall help the corn, wine, and the oil, and they shall help Iesrael. I will sow them upon the earth, for a seed to mine own self, and will have mercy upon her, that was without mercy. And to them which were not my people, I will say: Thou art my people. And he shall say: thou art my God*Achor= troublesome times Hebrew
God in time past diversely and many ways, spake unto the fathers by Prophets but in these last days he hath spoken unto us by his son, whom he hath made heir of all things: by whom also he made the world. Which son being the brightness of his glory, and very image of his substance, bearing up all things with the word of his power, hath in his own person purged our sins, and is sitten on the right hand of the majesty on high, and is more excellent then the angels, in as much as he hath by inheritance obtained an excellenter name then have they.
For unto which of the angels said he at any time: Thou art my son, this day begat I thee? And again: I will be his father, and he shall be my son. And again when he bringeth in the first begotten son into the world, he saith: And all the angels of God shall worship him. And of the angels he saith: He maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers flames of fire. But unto the son he saith: God, thy seat shall be for ever and ever. The sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity. Wherefore God which is thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
And thou Lord in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth. And the heavens are the works of thy hands. They shall perish, but thou shalt endure. They all shall wax old as doth a garment: and as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed. But thou art always, and thy years shall not fail. Unto which of the angels said he at any time: Sit on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool: Are they not all ministering spirits, sent to minister, for their sakes which shall be heirs of salvation?THE REVELATION OF ST JOHN Chpt 6
And when he opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say: come and see. And I beheld, and lo, a black horse: and he that sat on him, had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say: a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny: and oil and wine see thou hurt not. And when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say: come and see. And I looked. And behold a green horse, and his name that sat on him, was death, and hell followed after him, and power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, that cometh of vermin of the earth.
