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.
Behold in a dread full dream during the whoreable 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 in a city ...of the world of the Godless worldly ...
and shown within ...within such a place as a large book store ...with lounging places and coffee shop and rows and rows of books on shelves ...
and there was a woman there who was passed her time ...of "sparking" with men ...
and she had retreated from the verity "realness " of romance ...
and replaced romance with education and reading and becoming a modern woman of intellect...
and the highly educated woman was single and waiting ...
and also waiting ...for another woman of a destroyed marriage ...who had a young lad ...
and that for the highly educated woman was a ... youth mentor and caregiver of...the lad ...
nevertheless as the highly educated woman waited ...two men approached her ...
and both men put on airs (errors) of "being" intellectuals as was expected of any and everyone in the place ...
and the one man played his intellectual cards very well as if he was educated above the most and many others ...
and that for he kept mentioning his high and higher degrees and the distinguished honors that had been bestowed upon him ...
Yet the other highly educated man ...only offered to the woman his high degrees as he found out how educated she was ...
and then he played the "caring card" as if all that he knew he would use to help others ...
and that "scored" big with the single intellectual woman ...who "thought" in herself ...that she was passed the age of youth full romance ...
and the last man being able to "inject caring" into the conversation ...became of some interest to the highly educated single woman ...
and they walked and talked among a crowd of others like themselves ...
Yet many were "phone intellectuals" whose "knowledge" and "education" came from looking up any and every thing on their phones ...
and the fake phone intellectuals would be lost ...if their phones died or "the thing" was lost or damaged ....
and the education ...even the highest educated person thought and acted and performed only in two dimensions ...esteemed intellectual writings ...laws ..rules ...edicts ...
and the all the UNGodlie world was full of two dimensional writings ...
Yet three dimensional thinking and seeing is a rare thing ...where a thought becomes an idea ...and the idea actually becomes a thing of realness !!!
and the scene and the seeing changed ...
and i was shown a man and a woman ...
and the man and the woman loved God their father and Jesus their brother and Lord in spirit and truth with all their heart and soul and mind.
and the man and the woman were in the same city ...looking for ...one house ...
and that to offer the very recorded Word of God and Jesus ...
and the city was under a cloak of darkness ...
and the street lights were the only light... in the city ...
and the streets and alleys were all rushing and raging and the many and most only knew ...their way ...by their phones ...
and the man and the woman were shown in a store ...for the whole city was devoted to merchants ...
and there was a running and rushing and pushing and shoving to get what any one wanted and away to get to home or work or place of pleasure ...
and little or nothing else mattered ...
and the man and the woman bumped into a woman with her children ...
and the man spoke of the Word of God ...
and the woman with her children "received" and said to her children "SEE ...that is what i was telling you about !!!"
and the woman and her children were swept away in the push of the heavy crowd ...
and the man and the woman prayed that there be one house in the city ...that "receives"
and scripture came back to remembrance ...
Therefore holy brethren, partakers of the celestial
callings consider the ambassador and high priest of our profession Christ Jesus,
which was faithful to him that made him, even as was Moses in all his house. And
yet was this man counted worthy of more glory than Moses: In as much as he which
hath prepared the house, hath most honour in the house. Every house is prepared
of some man. But he that ordained all things, is God. And Moses verily was
faithful in all his house, as a minister, to bear witness of those things which
should be spoken afterward. But Christ as a son, hath rule over the house, whose
house are we, so that we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of
that hope, unto the end.
Wherefore as the *holy ghost saith: today
if ye shall hear his voice, harden not your hearts, after the rebellion in the
day of temptation in the wilderness, where your fathers tempted me, proved me,
and saw my works forty years long. Wherefore I was grieved with that
generation and said: They *erre ever in their hearts: they verily have not known
my ways so that I sware in my wrath, that they should not enter into my rest.
Take heed brethren that there be in none of you an evil heart in unbelief, that
he should depart from the living God: but exhort one another daily, while it is
called today, lest any of you wax hard hearted through the deceitfulness of sin.
We are partakers of Christ if we keep sure
unto the end the first substance, so long as it is said: today if ye hear his
voice, harden not your hearts, as when ye rebelled. For some, when they heard,
rebelled: how be it not all that came out of Egypt under Moses. But with whom
was he displeased forty years? Was he not displeased with them that sinned whose
carcasses were overthrown in the desert? To whom sware he that they should not
enter into his rest: but unto them that believed not? And we see that they
could not enter in, because of unbelief
*holy ghost saith: aka: spirit of truth. *erre (error) then is plain; against the very truth and verity (realness) of God and Christ
So I turned me, lifting up mine eyes, and
looked, and behold, a flying book. And he said unto me: what seest thou? I
answered: I see a flying book of twenty cubits long, and ten cubits broad. Then
said he unto me: This is the curse, that goeth forth over the whole earth: for
all thieves shall be judged after this book, and all swearers shall be judged
according to the same, I will bring it forth ( saith the Lord of hosts ) so that
it shall come to the house of the thief, and to the house of him, that falsely
sweareth by my name: and shall remain in his house, and shall consume it, with
the timber and stones thereof. Then the angel
that talked with me, went forth, and said unto me: lift up thine eyes and see
what this is that goeth forth. And I said: what is it? He answered: this is a
measure going out. He said moreover: Even thus are they ( that dwell upon the
whole earth ) to look upon. And behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead:
and lo, a woman sat in the midst of the measure. And he said: This is
ungodliness. So he cast her into the midst of the measure, and threw the
lump of lead up in to an whole.
Then lift up I mine eyes, and looked: and behold,
there came out two women, and the wind was in their wings ( for they had
wings like the wings of a stork ) and they lifted up the measure between the
earth and the heaven. Then spake I to the angel that talked with me: whither
will these bare the measure? And he said unto me: in to the land of Sinear, to
build them an house: which when it is prepared, the measure shall be set there
in his place
THE FOURTH BOOK OF ESDRAS Chpt 8
And he answered me,
saying: The most Highest made this world for many, but the world to come
for few. I will tell thee a similitude, Esdras: As when thou asketh the
earth, it shall say unto thee, that it giveth much mould, where earthen vessels
are made, but little of it that gold cometh of. Even so is it with the works of
this world. There be many created, but few shall be preserved. Then answered I
and said: Then swallow up the wit ( thou soul ) and devour the understanding,
for thou art agreed to harken and to give ear, and willingly to prophesy: for
thou hast no longer space given thee, but only to live. O' Lord, wilt thou not
give thy servant leaven, that we may pray before thee, and that thou mayest give
seed unto our heart, and build our understanding, that there may come fruit of
it: and that everyone which is corrupt, and beareth the state and place of man,
may live?
For thou art alone, and we all are one
workmanship of thy hands, like as thou hast said, and like as the body is
fashioned now in the childbed, and thou givest the members, and thy creature is
preserved in fire and water: and nine months doth thy work suffer thy creature,
which is fashioned in her: but the thing that is present and the thing that is
preserved, shall both be kept together: and when time is, the childbed deliver
the thing, that is kept and grown in her.
For thou hast commanded the breasts to give
milk unto the fruit, that the thing that is created and fashioned, may be
nourished for a time: and then thou disposest and orderest it with thy mercy,
bringest it up with thy righteousness; nurturest it in thy law, and reformest it
with thy understanding, mortifiest it as thy creature, and makest it living as
thy work. Seeing then that thou destroyest him, which with so great labors is
created and fashioned through thy commandment, thou couldest lightly order, also
that the thing which is made, might be preserved.
And this I speak now of all men in general,
as thou knowest: but of thy people, for whose sake I am sorry: and of thy
inheritance: for whose cause I mourn: and of Israel, for whom I am woeful: and
for Jacob, for whos sake I am grieved: therefore begin I to pray before thee,
for myself and for them, for I see the fall of us even of us, that dwell upon
earth. But I have heard the swiftness of the judge, which is to come: therefore
hear my voice, and understand my words, and I shall speak before thee.
This is the beginning of the words of Esdras
before he was received: O' Lord, thou that dwellest in everlastingness, whose
eyes are lifted up in the air, whose stool is exceedingly high, whose glory and
majesty may not be comprehended, before whom the Host of heaven stand with
trembling, whose keeping is turned in wind and fire, whose word is true, whose
talking is steadfast, whose commandment is strong, whose ordinance is fearful,
whose look drieth up the depths, whose wrath maketh the mountains to melt away,
and whose truth beareth witness: O' hear the prayer of thy servant, and mark
with thy ears the petition of thy creature.
For while I live, I will speak, and so long
as I have understanding, I will answer. O' look not upon the sins of thy people,
which serve in the truth. Have no respect for the wicked studies of the Heathen,
but to the desire of those that keep thy testimonies with sorrows. Think not
upon those that have walked *feintly before thee, but upon them, which with will
have known thy fear.
Let it not be thy will to destroy them,
which have had beastly manners, but to look upon them that have clearly taught
thy law. Take thou no indignation at them, which are worse then beasts: but love
them, that always put their trust in thy righteousness and glory: for we and our
fathers have all the same sickness and disease, but because of our sins thou
shalt be called merciful.
For thou hast mercy upon us thou shalt be
called merciful, where as we have no works of righteousness: for the righteous
which have laid up many good works together, shall out of their deeds receive
reward. For what is a man, that thou shouldest displeasure at him? Or what is
the corruptible generation, that thou shouldest be so rough toward him?
For of truth there is no man among them that
be born, but he hath dealt wickedly: and among the faithful there is none, which
hath not done amiss. For in this ( O' Lord ) thy righteousness and thy goodness
shall be praised and declared, if thou be merciful unto them, which are not rich
in good works.
Then answered he me and said: Some things
hast thou spoken right and according unto thy words it shall be. For I will not
verily consider the works of them, which have sinned before death, before the
judgement, before destruction, but I will rejoice over the work and thought of
the righteous, the holy making and the reward. Like as I have spoken now, so
shall it come to pass. For as the husband man soweth much seed upon the ground,
and planteth many trees, and yet always the thing that is sown or planted is not
all kept safe, neither does it all take root: Even so is it of them that are
sown in the world, they shall not all be preserved.
I answered then and said: If I have found
grace, then let me speak. Like as the husband man seed perisheth, if it not
receive rain in due season, or if there come to much rain upon it: Even so
perisheth a man also, which is created with thy hands, and is like unto thine
own image and to thy self, for whos sake thou hast made all things, and likened
him unto the husband mans seed. Be not wroth at us, O' Lord, but spare thy
people, and have mercy upon thine own inheritance: O' be merciful unto thy
creature.
Then answered he me and said: Things present
are for the present, and things to come for as such as be to come. For thou
wantest yet much, seeing thou may lovest my creature above me: I have often
times drawn near unto thee, but never to the unrighteous. In this also thou art
marvelous before the Highest, in that thou has humbled thy self, as it becometh
thee, and hast not regarded thine own self, that thou art had in such honor
among the righteous. Therefore shall great wretchedness and misery come upon
them, that in the later time shall dwell in the world, for they have walked in
great pride.
But understand thou for thyself, and seek
out glory for such as be like thee: for unto you paradise is opened, the tree of
life is planted, the time to come is prepared, plenteousness is made ready: a
city is builded for you, and a rest is prepared, yee perfect goodness and
wisdom. The root of evil is marked from you, the weakness and moth is hid from
you, and into hell flyeth corruption in forgetfulness. Sorrows are vanished
away, and in that end is shown the treasure of immortality. And therefore ask no
more questions, concerning the multitude of them that perish. For they have
taken liberty, despised the Highest, thought scorn of his law, and forsaken his
ways.
Moreover they have trodden down his
righteousness, and said in their heart, that there is no God, yee and that
wittingly, for they die. For like as the thing that I have spoken of, is made
ready for you: Even so is thirst and pain prepared for them. For it was not his
will that man should come to naught: but they which be created have defiled the
name of him that made them, and are unthankful unto him, which prepared life for
them. And therefore is my judgement now at hand. These things have I not showed
unto all men, but unto few: namely unto thee, and such as be like thee.
Then answered I and said: Behold O' Lord,
now hast thou showed me the multitude of thy tokens, which thou wilt begin to do
at the last but at what time and when thou hast not showed me
*feintly =dodge, maneuver, pose, pretend
These are the words of the appointment which the Lord commanded Moses
to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, beside the appointment
which he made with them in Horeb. And Moses called unto all Israel and said unto
them: Ye have seen all that the Lord did before your eyes in the land of Egypt,
unto Pharao and unto all his servants, and unto all his land, and the great
temptations which thine eyes have seen and those great miracles and wonders: And
yet the Lord hath not given you an heart to perceive, nor eyes to see, nor ears
to hear unto this day.
And I have led you forty years in the
wilderness: and your clothes are not waxed old upon you, nor are thy shoes waxed
old upon thy feet. Ye have eaten no bread nor drunk wine or strong drink: that
ye might know, how that he is the Lord your God.
THE GOSPELL OF ST. MATTHEW Chpt 13
And the disciples came and said to him: Why speakest thou to them in
parables? He answered and said unto them, it is given unto you to know the
secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
For whosoever hath to him shall be given:
and he shall have abundance. But whosoever hath not: from him shall be taken
away even that he hath. Therefore speak I to them in similitudes: for though
they see, they see not: and hearing they hear not: nether understand. And in
them is fulfilled the Prophecy of Esaias, which prophecy saith: with the ears ye
shall hear and shall not understand, and with the eyes ye shall see, and shall
not perceive. For this peoples hearts are waxed gross, and their ears were dull
of hearing, and their eyes have they closed lest they should see with their
eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their hearts, and
should turn, that I might heal them.
But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
Verily I say unto you, that many prophets, and perfect men have desired to see
those things which ye see, and have not seen them: and to hear those things
which ye hear, and have not heard them. Hear ye therefore the similitude of
the sower. Whosoever heareth the word of the kingdom and understandeth it not,
there cometh the evil man and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart.
And this is he which was sown by the way side. But he that was sown in the stony
ground, is he which heareth the word of God, and *anon with joy receiveth it,
yet hath no roots in himself, and therefore *dureth but a season: for as soon as
tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he falleth. He
that was sown among thorns, is he that heareth the word of God: but the care of
this world, and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and so is he made
unfruitful. He which is sown in the good ground is he that heareth the word and
understandeth it: which also beareth fruit and bringeth forth, some hundred
fold, some sixty fold, and some thirty fold.
THE FOURTH BOOK OF ESDRAS Chpt 5
Nevertheless, as concerning the tokens, mark this: Behold, the
days shall come, that they which dwell upon the earth, shall be taken in a great
number, and the way of the truth shall be hid, and the land shall be barren from
faith: but iniquity will have the upper hand, like as thou have seen now, and as
thou hast heard long ago. And the land that thou seest now to have rule,
shall thou shortly see waste. But if God grant thee to live, thou shalt see after
the third trumpet, that the sun shall suddenly shine again in the night, and
the moon three times in the day, and blood shall drop out of wood, and the stone
shall give his voice, and the people shall be unquiet: and even shall rule, whom
they hope not that dwell upon the earth, and the fowls shall flight, and the
*Sodomitish sea shall cast out his fish, and make a noise in the night, which
many shall not know, but they shall all hear the voice thereof.
There shall be a confusion also in many
places, and the fire shall be often sent again, and the wild beasts shall go
their way, and menstruous women shall bear monsters, and salt waters will be
found in the sweat: one friend shall fight against another: then shall all
wit and understanding be hid and put into their secret places, and shall be
sought of many, and yet not be found: then shall unrighteousness and
voluptuousness have the upper hand upon the earth. One land shall also ask
another, and say: Is righteousness gone through thee? And it shall say:
No, at the same time shall men hope, but nothing obtain: they shall labor but
their wages shall not prosper.
To show thee such tokens I have leave, and
if thou wilt pray again, and weep as now, and fast seven days, thou shalt hear
yet greater things. Then I awaked, and a fearfulness went through all my body,
and my mind was feeble and careful, so that I almost sounded withal. So the
angel that was come to talk with me, held me, comforted me, and set me up upon
my feet.
Every man can *eschue a person moved to anger, for what he doth wisely? Even so shall the Lord of Hosts take away from Jerusalem and from Juda, all possessions and power, all meat and drink, the captain and the soldier, the judge and the prophet, the wise and the aged man, the worshipful of fifty year old, and the honorable: the Senators, and the men of understanding: the masters of crafts and orators. And I shall give you children to be your princes,( sayeth the Lord ) and babes shall have the rule of you. One shall ever be doing violence and wrong to another. The boy will presume against the elder, and the vile person against the honorable. Ye when one shall take a friend of his own kindred by the bosom, and say: Thou hast clothing, thou shalt be our head, for thou mayest keep us from this fall and peril.
Then shall he swear and say: I can not help you. Moreover, there is neither meat nor clothing in my house, make me no ruler of the people. For Jerusalem and Juda must decay, because both their words and counsel are against the Lord, they provoke the presence of his Majesty unto anger. The changing of their countenance betrayeth them, yee they declare their own sins themselves, as the Sodomites, and hide them not. Woe be unto their souls, for they shall be heavily rewarded. Then shall they say: O happy are the godly, for they may enjoy the fruits of their studies. But woe be unto the ungodly and unrighteous for they shall be rewarded after their works. O my people, *ribaudes oppress thee, and women have rule of thee. O my people, thy leaders deceive thee, and tread out the way of thy footsteps. The Lord is here to commune of the matter, and standeth to give judgement with the people. The Lord shall come forth to reason with the Senators and princes of his people, and shall say thus unto them: It is ye that have burnt up my vineyard, the robbery of the poor is in your house. Wherefore do ye oppress my people, and marred the faces of the innocents? thus shall the Lord God of Hosts revile them.
Moreover thus sayeth the Lord: Seeing the daughters of Sion are become so proud, and come in with stretched out necks, and with vain wanton eyes: seeing they come in tripping so nicely with their feet: Therefore shall the Lord shave the heads of the daughters of Sion, and make their beauty bare in the day. In that day shall the Lord take away the gorgeousness of their apparel, and spangles, chains, *partlets, and collars, bracelets and hooves, that goodly flowered wide and boarded raiment, brushes and head bands, rings and garlands, holy day clothes and veils, kerchiefs and pins, glasses and smocks, bonnets and *taches
And instead of good smell there shall be stink among them. And for their girdles there shall be loose bands. And for well set hair there shall be baldness. Instead of a stomacher, a sackcloth, and for their beauty witherdness and *son burning. Their husbands and their mighty men shall perish with the sword in battle.
*eschue (avoid, escape) *ribaudes ( extortioners :MN). *partlets = ruffled covering for the neck. *taches = buckles, clasps, fasteners. *son burning exactly as recorded
THE REVELATION OF ST JOHN Chpt 3
And write unto the messenger of the congregation of Sardis: This sayth he that hath the spirit of God and the seven stars. I know your works: thou hast a name that you livest, and you are dead. Be awake and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die. For I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If you shalt not watch, I will come on you as a thief, and thou shall not know what hour I will come upon thee. You hast a few names in Sardis, which have not defiled their garments: and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy. He that overcometh shall be clothed in white array, and I will not put out his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my father, and before his Angels. Let him that hath ears, hear, what the spirit sayth unto the congregations.
THE SECOND TO THE THESSALONIANS Chpt 2
We beseech you brethren by the coming of our Lord *Jesu Christ, and in
that we shall assemble unto him, that ye be not suddenly moved from your mind
and be not troubled neither by spirit, neither by words, nor yet by letter which
should seem to come from us, as though the day of Christ were at hand. Let no
man deceive you by any means, for the Lord cometh not, except there come a
departing first, and that, that sinful man be opened, the son of *perdition
which is an adversary, and is exalted above all that is called God, or that is
worshipped: so that he shall sit as God in that temple of God, and show himself
as God.
Remember ye not, that when I was yet with
you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth: even that he
might be uttered at his time. For the mystery of that iniquity doth he already
work: till he which now only letteth, be taken out of the way. And then shall
that wicked be uttered, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his
mouth, and shall destroy with the appearance of his coming even him whose coming
is by the working of Satan, with all lying power, signs and wonders: and in all
deceivableness of unrighteousness, among them that perish: because they
received not the love of the truth, that they might have been
saved. And therefore God shall send them strong delusion, that they
should believe lies: that all they might be damned which believed not the truth,
but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
THE GOSPELL OF ST. LUKE Chpt 17
As it
happened in the time of Noe: So shall it be in the time of the son of man. They
ate, they drank, they married wives and were married, even unto the same day
that Noe went into the Ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all. Likewise
also, as it chanced in the days of Lot. They ate, they drank, they bought, they
sold, they planted, they built. And even the same day that Lot went out of *Zodom,
it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. After these
examples, shall it be in the day when the son of man shall appear.
At that day he that is on the house top and
his stuff in the house: let him not come down to take it out. And likewise let
not him that is in the fields, turn back again to that he left behind. Remember
Lots wife. Whosoever will go about to save his life, shall lose it: And
whosoever shall lose his life, shall save it. I tell you in that night, there
shall be two in one bed, that one shall be received and the other shall be
forsaken. two shall be also a grinding together: the one
shall be received, and the other forsaken. And they answered, and said unto
him: where Lord? And he said unto them: wheresoever the body shall be, thither
will the eagles resort.
*trow (think) *Zodom (Sodom)
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might have been saved.
