SEALS & TRUMPETS & BOWLS

My thoughts were on the above subject and I wanted to write out my thoughts/incomplete opinions so I could keep track of them as I learn more and see if my understanding is correct as I have been led to understand to date. I am not bound by the traditional teachings of what we are supposed to believe as passed on from man to man to man since man took over religion. I am totally bound to Jesus Christ, who died on the cross to pay our debt, Who is mankind's Savior, and the only hope for salvation, redemption and eternity. This is the pattern that i saw when studying these things in the prophecies of the Bible.

When John experienced Revelations he was brought into God's dimension where there is no time. When he saw the scroll and the seals, he was seeing the entire story of mankind that Christ is involved with. It was not just the scroll that represents the end times as is taught by man. It is the scroll that gives the creation of earth and all that is on and around earth to Jesus Christ, who paid the price on the cross for that scroll.

Revelations 1:19..Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; (Note: I believe that Christ is telling John that the things he will be seeing are things of the past, of the present, and of the future. This verse is another reason that I believe the Scroll that only our Lamb can open represented the beginning and the ending of Jesus' Glorious Task with man.)

Revelation 5: (5-6) But one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals." And I looked, and behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent out into all the earth.

Remember there is no time in God's realm. As each seal was broken by Christ (the only one worthy of doing so) that which it represents came into the world and it stays until Our Lord and Mighty King commences to return upon the sounding of the 7th trumpet. When each seal is broken, John gets a glimpse onto a stage (so to speak) where the entire life of that seal is revealed. That "life" includes all that occurs from that point of breakage....until Christ establishes His Millennium Period with mankind....no longer present with man in spirit only.....but in all His glory and perfection. This view is overlapping. Seal one is still present and active through to the 7th trumpet, and the vials of Wrath....because Seal one is Christ. When, for example, the sixth seal (seal of man) is broken....John sees the events (many he did not comment on) of mankind that occurred right through to the end of the Vial period....when God has destroyed all those who looked towards the dragon for their leadership. Without this knowledge any interpretation of the Seals and Trumpets and Vials does not fit into a perfect pattern. The interpretation that has been developing within me......fits all into a perfect piece with no rough edges. It is possible than, that when viewing an event that occurs in the 6th seal which seal overlaps the 7th seal and the trumpets, it is hard to say exactly when that event happens if it has not already occurred. When looking to our past....it is much easier to see when events took place and seals were opened.

I have always believed that when a SEAL is opened, the events and affects of that seal trail over into the succeeding seals. Thus...something like and earthquake, or falling stars described in the 6th seal could overlap into the 7th Seal, which is where the fallen angels are influencing earth within parts of the trumpet period. Just as the 1st Seal overlaps into all of the remaining seals.....Christ....Alpha and Omega. Ditto for the 2nd Seal which represents the dragon taking peace from the earth and people killing one another.....starting with the fall from Eden and Cain slaying Abel. This 2nd Seal is still active and overlaps all the succeeding seals. Ditto for the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. seals.....they all stay with us until the completion of the 7th seal. Of all the many ways I have pondered these seals and asked for illumination from the Holy Spirit....this is the explanation that most fits every aspect and word in the Bible.) The "TRUMPHETS" are signals announcing actual events, as are the BOWLS of Wrath.

John 10:10=(Christ spoke) The thief cometh to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Psalms 17:8 Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,

Isaiah 26:20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

Zephaniah: 2 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD'S anger come upon you. 3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger.

The above three scriptures would be applied for that brief time.... "for a little moment"....when the dragon rules (5th/6th trumpet) via the antichrist (one world rule) before the sounding of the 7th trumpet when Christ returns.

(Return)

Here is what I wrote about the beasts a couple of years ago( my opinions at that time).....there are three of them that concern our latter times and the times we are in now. I write during my studies so that i can review my understandings and conform them to new understandings upon further knowledge and study.

The sea beast is the one in Revelations, Chapter 13, and in Rev. 19: 19-20. The land beast is also in Rev. 13: 11-18. The red beast with the harlot rider is in Revelation Chapter 17: 3-18.

There is no doubt a link between all of these beasts, but we are also to consider them separately to come to the truth of it.

SEA BEAST LEOPARD Revelation 13: 1-8, 1--And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2--And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 3--And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 4--And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 5--And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. 6--And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 7--And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. 8--And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world

Revelation 19: 19-20 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

The above beast is not the Dragon, because the Dragon is not cast into the lake of fire until after the Millennium. The beast above is supported by the dragon, and is probably the anti-christ and the system of the antichrist. The beast above is perhaps also the False Messiah, pretending to be the Messiah that the Jews were waiting for, and the Muslims. (He may be possessed by the Dragon, however, and the Dragon may leave the body before the doodoo hits the fan, so to speak! ;-)

THE LAND BEAST: Revelations Chapter 13: 11-18 (11)And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. (12)And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast (the one with the Leopards body, above discussed) before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. (13)And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, (14) And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. (15) And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the (first) beast should be killed. (16)And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: (17)And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the (first) beast, or the number of his name. (18) Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the (first) beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

(The above land beast is the false prophet, that points towards the False Messiah. They will be imitating much of the prophesy that pointed towards Christ. The scripture that states Elijah will proceed the Christ.)

RED BEAST WITH HARLOT RIDER (When you read the below it seems evident that the horns are separate from the beast. The horns being earthly kings. Russia would be considered a king, not a beast. The red beast ascends out of the bottomless pit....it is Apollyon....See Rev. 9:11 (And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.) The Harlot who rides the beast is Babylon, but the red Beast is an angel, a son of God. My guess is that it is the Dragon......also represented in the 2nd seal (red horse) who deceived Adam and Eve in the Garden.

The Red Beast is the dragon, in my opinion, and mankind is facilitated by riding the dragon, moving forth by the dragon's power and support (ie, Babylon (that part of mankind in the past, in the now and in the latter times which does not worship the True God, but worships themselves.) rides the red beast (dragon). Before the 6th seal elapses (remember...in my opinion the 6th seal overlaps the trumpet period) there are many deaths caused in the world by those who are supported by the dragon....to those who will not worship the dragon. Chapter 6 of Revelation ends with the 6th seal being opened. Chapter 7 of Revelation represents things that occur when the 7th Seal is opened....as does Chapter 8. John sees many of those who have died due to the tribulation of man and the dragon upon the earth, much of which happens during the 6th seal extending in to the 7th seal which includes the trumpet period. But before the 7th Seal is opened....the abomination is standing in the earthly temple and proclaiming to be God. This is the physical appearance of the dragon....and my opinion to date, is that the mighty one described in Chapter 10 of Revelation is the dragon also as he stands proclaiming to be God in the temple on earth (which instigates the 7th trumpet beginning to sound. He is the one who has been orchestrating the antichrist system.

THE ANGEL OF THE 10TH CHAPTER OF REVELATION (DRAGON?): As 5th and 6th trumpet are sounding....the mystery angel comes down from heaven. His story is in Chapter 10. I know, I am almost 99 percent sure that this angel is the dragon. You will notice in the first Chapter of Revelation (Chapter 1: 13 -16) that Christ is described as having feet like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace. The angel of Chapter 10 is magnificent and beautiful (as the dragon/satan was created...the most beautiful of angels)....but his feet are like pillars of fire. (Where this angel has trod...he brings death. The dragon is the angel of death.) This angel has a little scroll/book. (I think this little scroll held by this angel is a parody of the large scroll that John saw in Revelation with the seven seals, (The deed to the earth and the redemption of mankind.), that the Lamb (Christ ) is given. I think this angel is the dragon making his appearance as the "savior", taking his place as god, with his little book that he received...a lease so to speak which gave him influence/reign upon the earth after man's fall from Eden! I think this is him standing as an abomination in the temple on earth, proclaiming to be the god of earth. You will note when you read this that the angel has his right fiery foot on the sea, and his left fiery foot on the land...(just as we know that the false system illustrates the beast coming from the sea and the beast coming from the land). This angel cries out with a loud voice. And, as he cries out the seven thunders (God's voice) also utters their voices. John hears what God says about this angel and what the angel has cried out....but John is told by a voice from heaven not to record what the thunders stated. (I think because we are not to know, because knowing would ruin this test/sifting of the tares and wheat of mankind that is upon us now.....as to who will remain faithful to the Lord (until death, or until the 7th trumpet sounds and we are changed,) and who will start worshipping and believing what the angel with feet of fire proclaims. John goes on to tell us that the fiery footed angel lifts up his hand to heavens, swearing by the Eternal Creator of all, that there will be delay no longer....that the mystery of God would be finished in the days when the 7th trumpet was about to sound. (We know by God's word.....if we have studied carefully.....that God's mystery is not solved for us until we are transfigured and are "in" Christ....having the same kind of body....which allows us to know His will perfectly and to finally understand the mystery of God's dealings with mankind.) We know that this does not happen until the last trumpet sounds when we are than transfigured and changed in a twinkle. This happens when the seventh trumpet sounds. Before the last trumpet sounds is when the dragon makes his play on mankind.....pretending to be the god of the prophets, messiah, returning to save the world during the soundings of the 5th and 6th trumpets. (The trumpet soundings announcement of events....unlike the seals which are affects, influences upon mankind that stay once they are unsealed.....until Christ removes their influence.)

After this....the voice from heaven instructs John to go up and get that little scroll in the fiery legged angel's hand. You will note that John does not ask for the scroll....as you would to one you respected and were in awe of......but he demands the scroll....saying..."Give me the little book." If you have read your Bible carefully you will understand that God has given us dominion over the dragon via our being in Jesus Christ. This is key....John demands the scroll.....and the fiery legged angel gives John the scroll. He has no choice....he has to obey John, this man of God. This is the false scroll that the dragon claims the earth with and the rule of the earth. Then the voice from heaven tells John to eat the book, and also tells John that the book will taste sweet but will be bitter in John's stomach. (Just as happened in the Garden of Eden....when Eve and Adam "ate" from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil!) Once again the dragon is trying to deceive mankind and rule upon earth, bring all mankind to eternal destruction....which is the dragon's goal. (Christ conquered the dragons attempt to destroy us and bring us to death when Christ came and died on the cross...praise Our Alpha God....who loved us enough when we first fell...and concerned Himself with earth....coming to earth, creating clay bodies for our fallen spirits, creating Adam and putting him in Eden, that we might have eternal life....and providing for our fall from Eden with His own coming to earth in the flesh to die as our Lamb! (THE FIRST SEAL....Christ on the pure white horse, with a crown, with the bow that does not have an arrow, because He is the arrow, His body is the arrow that accomplishes all the works of the Alpha God....from the beginning of our history, right down to His bodily crucifixion on the cross...which Divine Body was the missing Arrow that conquered the dragon's plans!) So....John took the book and ate it...and it was sweet as honey in his mouth...but made John's stomach bitter. Bitter to me means poisoned. Those who believe this dragon when he pretends at this point in our future will be poisoned from eternal life and will not return to our Heavenly Father! (Those who listen to, and taste the sweet words of the dragon, promising abundant life for mankind, who believe the words and swallow them up into their beings will be poisoned unto death of their souls.) John is than told by the voice from heaven that he is to prophesy again about many peoples, nations, tongues and kings.

This ends chapter 10. The succeeding Chapter 11 is about the Two Witnesses (that have not tasted death on earth, but who were taken up to God while still alive in the old Testament).....that will prophesy 1,260 days against this dragon with the fiery feet/legs who is going to set himself up in God's place in the earthly temple. Then it is allowed that they will be killed, die upon this earth, and they will rise after three and a half days.

John 10:10=(Christ spoke) The thief will come to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

This length of time is also the same amount of time the antichrist has rule over the earth, and the same amount of time that the woman who was given two wings of an Eagle that she might fly to the Wilderness to be kept safe from the dragon. I hope we (America...founded by God) are that Wilderness....and that we keep God in our country in this next election coming up in 2012. I am of the opinion that these two Witnesses, who are ultimately allowed to be slain, and than lay in the street dead with all the world watching, who than rise up to Heaven on the third day....that is also when the 7th trumpet sounds, and we saints will be changed in a twinkling to go up to meet Christ.

When the 7th trumpet sounds I believe the following scripture applies....when Christ has changed us and we are "in" Him in our new spiritual bodies. Psalm 27:5 "For in the time of trouble He (God) shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle, He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock."

Reading this Psalm reminded me of how we are transfigured and put in Christ (Who is the tabernacle now in Heaven) at the sounding of the Last Trump, during that Bowl of Wrath period that descends upon earth. This 7th trump sounding is also when the tabernacle in Heaven is opened and the Angels who have control over fire are given the Bowls of Wrath. It is when Christ proclaims the earth is His and He is given the shout to go and tread the winepress of the Wrath of God. As the angels are given the Bowls of Wrath and they are being poured out on the earth....no one can enter the tabernacle. Decisions for Christ during the Bowls of Wrath will not get one into Christ because the "tabernacle is closed"....but if they survive physically this Bowl Wrath period they will walk into the Millennium with their earthly bodies, or if they die during the Wrath period finally believing Christ there is a possibility that when all are resurrected at the end of the Millennium they may be given to Christ at that time.....who knows....there are allot of mysteries in the Word of God that we will not know or understand until we are in our Eternal spiritual bodies....in Christ.

Revelation 7: 1- 17--And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. ^standing Psa 34:7 ^{four winds} Dan 7:2

And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,

Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. ^{Hurt not} Rev 6:6, Rev 9:4 ^foreheads Rev 22:4

And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. ^heard Rev 9:16 ^sealed Ezek 9:4, Eph 4:30 ^hundred Rev 14:1 ^tribes Matt 19:28, Acts 26:7, James 1:1, Rev 21:12

Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. ^Aser Luke 2:36 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.

After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; (I believe these are the ones who were resurrected and changed/transfigured during the sounding of the 7th trumpet.)^nations Isa 2:2, Mal 1:11, Matt 8:11, Luke 13:29, Acts 10:45, Acts 11:18, Acts 14:27, Rom 15:9, Eph 3:6, Rev 5:9, Rev 14:6 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. ^Salvation Psa 3:8, Jer 3:23, Hos 13:4 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. ^Blessing Rev 5:13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? ^white Rev 3:5 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. ^washed Zech 3:3, Heb 9:14, 1st John 1:7 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. ^before Matt 25:46, Rev 3:21 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. Isa 49:10, Isa 25:8 Isa 49:10

Rev.8: 1-6 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.^(prayers Psa 141:2, Rev 5:8 ) And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

(I believe that the first four trumpets sound at the same time.....followed quickly by the fifth and sixth....which see the dragon's return and the fallen angels. The trumpet period happens quickly. It is during this period that I believe we are kept hidden and safe under the wing of our Lord, if we have the meekness and sense to stay there until the sounding of the 7th trumpet! )

THOUGHTS ON THE MILLENNIUM

Matthew 25: 31-40

(31)When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: (32)And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: (33)And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. (34) Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: (35)For I was hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: (36)Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. (37) Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? (38) When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? (39) Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? (40)And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

(Who are Christ's brethren? Are His brethren the saints? I think so. When we accept Christ, we become brothers and sisters with him, children of God the Father. Christ, I believe, is talking to the nations that are before him, those people who came through the Bowls of Wrath, and those people who have been put in the Millennium Kingdom in flesh bodies for perfect teaching due to the state of their hearts during their life on earth. At some point during this Last Day of the Lord, they are being divided according to the witness of the state of their hearts. If their hearts were such that, even tho they were in danger of death, they still went ahead and helped the persecuted Christians during the tribulation (amongst other places and times) they will be honored by Christ and will be named "righteous" and allowed to be in some way or another in the Kingdom that He is referring to in the above scripture. Think about all the people, throughout history, who have risked their lives for others, not loving their lives unto death, but taking a chance to help another. During Hitler's time on earth many people risked their lives to help those that were being persecuted, which included Jews and Christians....and because of that risk they took, they were killed or lost their lives. Do you think that God does not see their hearts at this time of their death?

The Millennium is a mystery....why does God feel that there needs to be 1,000 years of perfect teaching without the dragon being able to influence our hearts and minds....where the Word, Christ, Himself is present? The Saints will be there also, in their eternal bodies and will be able to teach PERFECTLY the Word of God, because they are IN God, having their spiritual bodies. In this world of teaching that exists now, we have the dragon's influence and the taint of the antichrist. Perfect teaching stopped when Christ was crucified, because He was the only PERFECT ONE, and the teaching was left in the hands of imperfect man, man who was jealous and coveted the glory of others. Man...who could only teach perfectly when they set themselves totally aside and let the HOLY SPIRIT lead them. No man is able to do that 100% of the time. That is why being "humble" was so stressed by Christ. Do you think the men who have had the power over others such as the heads of the first Roman Church were humble. Were they teachable....or were they corrupted by their power? Man and men who wanted the power for themselves....who perverted the perfect teachings of Christ and placed men between the Believer and the Believer's God, have made such a jumble and conflict of the Word,..... one church warring against another as to how one is saved, where one is saved.......making the simple salvation that Christ offered become buried under their dogma and traditions of man. That is why I believe that God is allowing this 1,000 years coming of perfect teaching to occur. It will take 1,000 years to overcome all the damage that man and the dragon have done to the Word of God upon this earth. The final testing of mankind is in the last hour of the Millennium when the dragon is let loose again. (One hour is 40-41 years, doing the math using one day of God is 1,000 years to man. See Time Passing Chart). As a Father....would you test your children before they had been perfectly taught? I think not. I believe that when Christ went down to the holding place (hell) for three days after He was crucified, that many there acknowledged Him, and wanted Him because of what He was and did. (I also believe that any realm of the Eternal Father has no time restrictions, and all that have died without accepting Christ, in the past and through to when Christ returns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords were there.) I think there was provision made for those to have their spirits placed into flesh bodies that are born into the Millennium. I also believe that in the Millennium your lifespan has been increased to that of the first men. (See Age Chart Adam to Promised Land). One could live through the entire period of the Millennium through to when the dragon is let loose again. There is a scripture in the Book of Hebrews, Chapter 9: 26-28 that states : .....but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. This states that men die once....and does not preclude, as stated, that the spirit of some could be put into the babies born into the Millennium, as they could live and not die there,....learning the perfect truth and accepting it faithfully throughout the final test of the dragon, (after the dragon is let loose at the end to test the hearts of those in the Millennium), and then being judged and receiving their eternal bodies after the final judgment We do not know all the mysteries of God. Much of what Christ taught was not included in the current version of the Bible that we now read due to the struggles for power amongst the churches of man. The Holy Spirit is our teacher, and can teach us clearly what we need to know unto salvation....no matter how man and his traditions try to muddy the waters. In those muddy waters that man has made....stands out a stone.....clearly seen thrusting It's way out of and above the muddy waters.....that Stone, Rock, being Jesus Christ....Our Lord and Savior, Returning King of Kings....the Rock upon which we stand!

I am not stating that I believe in reincarnation over and over again upon the earth as do some religions believe that do not have Christ at their head. When I was young and first heard about reincarnation beliefs, I felt that reincarnation would stop at enlightenment....which in my mind was defined as seeing the Light of Christ and acknowledging Him as the Door into eternal life. I believe that the dragon has given knowledge to humans but always twists it so that it leads away from Christ and mankind's ultimate salvation into eternal life, through the ONLY DOOR, Jesus Christ.

The only way to perfection and eternal life is through Jesus Christ, ...not through ourselves, ...not through any man, and ...not through any other god, can our salvation be achieved.
