And measures and matters of The Truth of the "time" we are in ...how "man" ..."thought to change time and times ... and the man ...watching over...
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 in a high place ...
and he was watching over ...men ...
and the place was horrible to look upon ...
the waters of the world ...(teachings thereof ) ...were vile blackish and stunk ...
and all were bent to wicked labor ...
and had to wade in the wicked waters ...
and the man watched over the other men ...
and the people were so bound ...by the wicked labor ...
and so made to walk ...walk in ...wade in the wicked waters of the world ...
and the binding and wading ...made the place ...like a prison ...
and the man that watched over the men ...to help them ...watched earnestly ...
and if the man that watched over them saw troubles ...he changed ...what he wore on his feet ...
and he would change from boots ...to sandals ...
and if they had troubles in the world or the worldly ...he helped them ...
and if the had troubles in spirit or truth he helped them ...
and of the world he wore boots ...to help ...
and for the spirit and truth he wore sandals ...to help ...
and those that would be helped ...could be helped ...
and those that would not be helped ...could not be helped ...
and the wickedness and the filthy waters of the world became worse ....
even that there were no dry places ...where the vile stinking waters of the world ...did not flood ...
and there came a time when the wicked labor was allowed to abate ...
and that only that any might eat ...
and eat for strength ...
that they might return to the wading and woesome wicked labor ...
and so the bound wad was allowed time to eat ...
and the man that would help ...looked all round about ...that he might see a worthy place to eat ...
and he looked and looked ...
and still there was no where...worthy to eat ...
even no place left ...that was not flooded ..with vile waters of the world ...
and though the man ...that had helped many...was hungry ...
even for strength ...
and he who helped ...might have been helped of any ...
evenso people passed him by ...that might have helped him ...
even those he had helped ...
and the man wondered an mighty wonder before God and Christ ...
and he looked ...and behold a supper was being ...being prepared for him ...
and he was astounded ...for upon the wicked waters ...on surface thereof ...there was a fire made ...
and within the fire was a meat being made ready for him ...
even that he might eat for strength ...
and of the scripture ...
Nabuchodonosor King unto all people, kindreds and tongues that dwell upon the whole earth: peace be multiplied among you I thought it good to show the tokens and marvelous works, that the high God hath wrought upon me. O how great are his tokens, and how mighty are his wonders? His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his power lasteth for ever and ever.
I Nabuchodonosor being at rest in mine house, and flourishing in my palace, saw a dream, which made me afraid: and the thoughts that I had upon my bed, with the visions of my head, troubled me. Then sent I out a commission, that all they which were of wisdom at Babylon should be brought before me, to tell me the interpretation of the dream. So there came the soothsayers, charmers, Caldees and conjurers of devils: to whom I told the dream, but what it be token, they could not show me: till at the last, there came one Daniel ( other wise called Balthasar, according to the name of my god ) which hath the spirit of the holy gods, in him: to whom I told the dream, saying: For so much as I know, that thou hast the spirit of the holy Gods and no secret is hid from thee: tell me therefore, what the vision of my dream ( that I have seen ) may signify. I saw a vision in my head upon my bed: and behold, there stood a tree upon the ground, which was very high, great and mighty: the highth reached unto the heaven, and the breadth extended to all the ends of the earth: his leaves were fair, he had very much fruit, so that every man had enough to eat therin.
The beasts of the field had shadows under it, and the fowls of the air dwelt in the boughs thereof. Shortly, all creatures fed of it. I saw in my head a vision upon my bed: and behold, a watcher came down from heaven, and cried mightily, saying. Hew down the tree, break off his branches, shake off his leaves, and scatter his fruit abroad: that all the beasts may get them away from under him, and the fowls from his branches. Nevertheless leave the ground of his root still in the earth, and bind him upon the plain field, with chains of iron and steel. With the dew of heaven shall he be wet, and he shall have his part with the herbs of the ground with the other wild beasts.
That mans heart of his shall be taken from him, and a beats heart shall be given him, till seven years be come and gone from him.
This errand of the watcher is a commandment grounded and sought out in the country of him, that is most holy: to learn men for to understand, that the highest hath power over the kingdoms of men, and giveth them, to whom it liketh him, and bringeth the very out casts of men over them. This is the dream, that I king Nabuchodonosor have seen. Therefore O Balthasar, tell thou me what it signifieth: for so much as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to show me what it meaneth. But thou canst do it, for the spirit of the holy Gods is in thee.
Then Daniel ( whose name was Balthasar ) held his peace by the space of an hour and his thoughts troubled him. So the king spake, and said: O Balthasar, let neither the dream nor the interpretation thereof fear thee. Balthasar answered saying: O my Lord, this dream happen to thine enemies, and the interpretation to thine adversary. As for the tree that thou sawest which was so great and mighty, whose height reached unto the heaven, and his breadth in to all the world: whose leaves were fair, and the fruit thereof much: under the which the beasts of the field had their habitation, and upon whose branches the fowls of the air did sit.
Even thou ( O king ) art the tree, great and strong. Thy greatness increaseth, and reacheth unto heaven, so doth thy power to the ends of the earth. But where as the king saw a watcher even an holy one angel, that came down from heaven, and said: hew down the tree, and destroy it: yet leave the ground of the root in the earth: and bind him upon the plain field with chains of iron and steel: He shall be wet with the dew of heaven, and his part with the beasts of the field, till seven years be come and gone from him: This ( O king ) is the interpretation , yee it is the very device of him, that is highest of all, and it touched my Lord the king.
Thou shalt be cast from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: with grass shalt thou be fed like an ox. Thou must be wet with the dew of heaven: yee seven years shall come, and go upon thee, till thou know, that the highest hath power upon the kingdoms of men, and giveth them to whom he *list. Moreover, where it was said, that the root of the tree should be left still in the ground: it betokeneth, that thy kingdom shall remain whole unto thee, after thou has learned to know, that the power cometh from heaven. Wherefore, O king, be content with my counsel, that thou may lose thy sins with righteousness, and thine offenses with mercy to poor people: for such things shall prolong peace. All these things touche the King Nabuchodonosor.
So after twelve months, the king walked up and down in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon, and said: This is the great city of Babylon, which I myself ( with my power and strength ) have made a kings court, for the honor of my majesty. While these words were yet in the kings mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying: O king Nabuchodonosor, to that be it spoken: Thy kingdom is departed from thee, thou shalt be cast out of mens company: thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, so that thou shall eat grass like as an ox, till seven years be come and gone over thee: even until thou knowest, that the highest hath power upon the kingdoms men, and that he may give them, unto whom it pleaseth him. The very same hour was this matter fulfilled upon Nabuchodonosor: so that he was cast out from mens company, and ate grass like an ox, His body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were as great as Eagles feathers, and his nails like birds claws.
When this time was past, I Nabuchodonosor lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding was restored unto me again. Then I gave thanks to the highest. I magnified and praised him that liveth for evermore, whose power endureth always, and his kingdom from one generation to another: in comparison of whom all they that dwell upon the earth, are to be reputed as nothing.
He handleth according to his will, among the powers of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth: and there is none that may resist his hand, or say: what doest thou? At the same time was mine understanding given me again, and I was restored to the honor of my kingdom, to my dignity, an to my own shape again. My great estates and Princes sought unto me, and I was set in my kingdom again, so that I had yet greater worship.
Then did I Nabuchodonosor, love, magnify and praise the King of heaven: for all his works are true, and his ways right. As for those that go on proudly, he is able to bring them down*list.(whom he will, enlists)
