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 nightmare of the dark season ...of the times and time ..of the season of man ...see son of man ...
and i was taken and shown a man...
and the man was like a native in his own country ...
Yet his country was foreign to him ...
and he tried to live in a country ...that was his country ....
evenso the country was foreign to him ...
and he tried to do all the strange and foreign things that were done in his country ...
and there was a mountain of thrills shown ...
even of thrills unto death ...
and the peoples climbed and clamored and rushed ...
even over and trampling others ...just for thrills unto death ...
and the man began to drink strong drink ...
and more and more ...
even until he began to have delusions and convulsions ...
and a man came to visit him ...who loved God and Christ in spirit and truth ...
and to help him be free of the foul vexation of the place ...
and of the drunkenness ...
and the delusions and madness and convulsions ...
and the man who came to help ...spent long times ...
and in spirit and truth with the man of drunkenness ...
and even so the man would have rest from the wickedness of the place ...
and the man covered the afflicted one with a white covering ...
even as he rested ...
and then the man that loved God and Christ left ...
and went on his way ...
and another man asked him ...where did you come from ...
and the man said "from the east wind" ...
and i was not shown wethersoever the man of drunkenness ...stayed away of all the wickedness ...
or whether he returned ...to his home ...
and scripture came back to remembrance ...
And he said unto them: shall it be so? The Lord be with you, should I let you go, and your children also? Take heed, for ye have some mischief in hand. Nay not so: but go ye that are men and serve the Lord, for that was your desire. And they thrust them out of Pharaos presence. And the Lord said unto Moses: Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for grasshoppers, that they come upon the land of Egypt and eat all the herbs of the land, and all that the hail left untouched. And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought an east wind upon the land, all that day and all night. And in the morning the east wind brought the grasshoppers, and the grasshoppers went up over all the land of Egypt and lighted in all quarters of Egypt very grievously: so that before them were there no such grasshoppers, neither after them shall be. And they covered all the face of the earth, so that the land was dark therewith. And they ate all the herbs of the land and all the fruits of the trees which the hail had left: so that there was no green thing left in the trees and herbs of the field through all the land of Egypt.
When now Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, the Lord carried away the sea with a strong east wind that blew all night, and made the sea dry land and the water divided itself. And the children of Israel went in through the midst of the sea upon the dry ground. And the water was a wall unto them, both on their right hand and on their left hand. And the Egyptians followed and went in after them to the midst of the sea, with all Pharaos horses, and his chariots and his horsemen. And in the morning watch, the Lord looked unto the host of the Egyptians out of the fiery and cloudy pillar, and troubled their host and smote off their chariot wheels and cast them down to the ground. Then said the Egyptians: Let us flee from Israel, for the Lord fighteth for them against us. Then said the Lord unto Moses: stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the water may come again upon the Egyptians upon their chariots and horsemen.
Thou shalt break the ships of the sea, through the east wind.
He caused the East wind to blow under heaven, and through his power he brought in the south wind. He made flesh to rain upon them as thick as dust, and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea: He let it fall among their tents round about their habitations
Therefore thus saith the Lord: Ask among the Heathen, if any man hath heard such horrible things, as the Daughter of Sion hath done. Shall not the snow ( that melteth upon the stony rocks of Libanus ) moisten the fields? Or may the springs of waters be so graven away, that they run no more, give moistness, ner make fruitful? But my people hath so forgotten me that they have made sacrifice unto vain Gods. And while they followed their own ways they are come out of the high street, and gone in to a foot way not used to be trodden. Where through they have brought their land into an everlasting wilderness and scorn: So that whosoever traveleth thereby, shall be abashed, and wag their heads. With an East wind will I scatter them, before their enemies. And when their destruction cometh, I will turn my back upon them, but not my face. Then said they: come, let us imagine something against this Jeremie. Yee this did even the priests, to whom the law was committed: the Senators, that were the wisest and the prophets, which wanted not the word of God. Come ( say they ) let us cut out his tongue, and let us not regard his words. Consider me, O' Lord, and hear the voice of mine enemies. Do they not recompense evil for good, when they dig a pit for my soul? Remember , how that I stood before thee, to speak for them, and to turn away thy wrath from them.
The word of the Lord came unto me, saying: Thou son of man: put forth a dark speaking and a parable, unto the house of Israel, And say: Thus saith the Lord God: There came a great Eagle with great wings, yee with mighty long wings, full of feathers, of diverse colors, upon the mount of Libanus, and took a branch from a Cedar tree, and break off the top of his twig, and carried it into the land of Canaan, and set it in a city of merchants. He took also a branch of the land, and planted it in a fruitful ground, he brought it unto great waters, and set it as a willow tree thereby. Then did it grow, and was a great vine stock, but low by the ground: thus there came of it a vine, and it brought forth blossoms, and spread out branches. But their was another Eagle, a great one, which had great wings and many feathers: and behold, the roots of this vine had an hunger after him, and spread out his branches toward him, to water his fruits: Nevertheless it was planted upon good ground beside great waters: so that ( by reason ) it should have brought out branches and fruit, and have been a goodly vine. Speak thou therefore, thus saith the Lord God: Shall this vine prosper? Shall not his roots be plucked out, his fruit be broken off, his green branches wither and fade away? Yee without strong armies or many people, shall it be plucked up by the roots. Behold, it was planted: shall it prosper therefore. Shall it not be dried up and withered, yee even in the shooting out of its blossoms, as soon as the east wind bloweth?
So when men saw that she exceeded the height and multitude of her branches, she was rooted out in displeasure, and cast down to the ground. The East wind dried up her fruit, her strong stalks were broken off, withered and burnt in the fire. But now she is planted in the wilderness, in a dry and thirsty ground. And there is a fire gone out of her stalks, which hath burnt up her branches and her fruit: so that she hath no more strong stalks, to be staves for officers. This is a piteous and miserable thing.
Thus thou art full, and in great worship, even in the midst of the sea. Thy mariners were ever bringing unto thee out of many waters. But the east wind shall over bear thee into the midest of the sea: so that thy wares, thy merchandise, thy riches, thy mariners, thy shipmasters, thy helpers, thy occupiers ( that brought the things necessary ) the men of war that, are in thee: Yee and all thy *comens shall perish in the midst of the sea, in the day of thy fall. The suburbs shall shake at the loud cry of thy shipmen. All whirry men, and all mariners upon the sea, shall leap out of their boats, and set themselves upon the land. They shall lift up their voice because of thee, and make a lamentable cry. They shall cast up dust upon their heads, and lay down in the ashes. They shall shave themselves, and put sackcloth upon them for thy sake.
O death, I will be thy death: O hell, I will be thy sting. Yet can I see no come forth, for when he is now the goodliest among the brethren, the East wind ( even the wind of the Lord ) shall come down from the wilderness, and dry up his conduits, and drink up his wells: he shall spoil the treasure of all pleasant vessels
And the Lord God prepared a wild vine, which sprang up over Jonas, that he might have shadow above his head, to deliver him out of his pain. And Jonas was exceeding glad of the wild vine.
But upon the next morrow against the spring of the day. The Lord *ordened a worm, which smote the wild vine, so that it withered again. And when the Sun was up God prepared a fervent east wind: and the Sun beat over the head of Jonas, that he fainted again, and wished unto his soul, that he might die, and said: It is better for me to die than to live. And God said unto Jonas: Art thou so angry for the wild vine? And he said: yee very angry, even unto death. And the Lord said: Thou hast compassion on the wild vine, whereon thou bestowest no labor, nor madest it grow: which sprang up in one night and perish in another: And shouldest not I then have compassion on Ninive that great city, wherein there are above 120,000 persons, that know not their right hand from the left, besides much cattle?For lo, I will rise up the **Cauldees, that bitter and swift people: which shall go as wide as the land is, to take possession of dwelling places, that be not their own. A grim and boisterous people is it, these shall sit in judgement and punish. Their horses are swifter than the cats of the mountain, and bite sorer than the wolves in the evening. Their horsemen come by great heaps from far, they flee hastily to devour as the Eagle. They come all to spoil: out of them cometh an east wind, which bloweth and gathereth their captives, like as the sand. They shall mock the kings, and laugh the princes to scorn. They shall not set by any strong hold, for they shall lay ordinance against it, and take it. Then shall they take a fresh courage unto them, to go forth and do more evil, and so ascribe that power unto their God.
But thou O' Lord my God, my holy one thou art from the beginning, therefore shall we not die. O' Lord, thou hast ordered them for punishment, and set them to reprove the mighty. Thine eyes are clean, thou mayest not see evil, thou can not behold that thing that is wicked. Wherefore when thou dost look upon the ungodly, and holdest thy tongue, when the wicked devour the man that is better then himself? Thou makest men as the fish in the sea, and like as the creeping beasts, that have no guide. They take up all with their *angle they catch it in their net, and gather it in their yarn: whereof they rejoice and are glad. Therefore offer unto their net, and do sacrifice unto their yarn: because through it their portions is become so fat, and their meat so plenteous. Wherefore they cast out their net again, and never cause to slay the people
