Transcript Excerpt

nterpretation of Tongues 1

‘For you see I brought you equipping, I brought you equipping, I brought you equipping. I have come to strengthen you anew’ saith the Lord, ‘I have come to strengthen you anew, I have come to strengthen you anew. ‘I come to make you  able again, I come to make you able again, I come to make you an able minister again, I come to make you able again, I have been sent’ saith the Lord.’ ‘Baba sent Me, Baba sent Me, Baba sent Me, Baba has sent Me, Baba has sent Me. Baba sent Me to come help you, Baba sent Me to come help you, Baba sent Me to come help you that men may become seers, that many men may become seers. Baba has sent Me to come help you, to come help you, to come help you, to deliver sight, to deliver sight.’ ‘And therefore I give to you might, I give to you might, I give to you might. I call you into commandment of My Father, I call you into the commandment of the Father. There is might here, there is might here, might is here.’

Message Begins

Commandment is to generate faith; without commandment life cannot be generated.

2 Corinthians 4:6

“For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”

Commandment is a light. When God was giving commandment He was shining. When faith is described without life, it is described as believing God for something, but faith is to believe who God is. When you believe who He is, you will believe what He is.

James 2:19

“Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.”

The devil acknowledges that there is God, but He doesn’t submit to what God has to give. If you believe in the Son, you will also believe what He is sent to do.

John 8:31                                                             

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;”

There are some people who believe in Jesus, and when they hear what He has to say they turn back, to mean that they cannot believe all.

John 1:12

“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:”

They should no longer believe in His name but on His name, because it is the name that reveals who He is; and who He is, is defined by what He is.  You cannot become if you do not go into the process of believing on His name.

Ephesians 1:18-19

“The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,  And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,”

Believing on him will show us what He is.

Psalm 8:4

“What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?”

Man is beyond the figure that we see, there is a structural building in man that makes God committed to him. Men have believed in a lie; what they call gods are lies. What we are dealing with in the gospel is not just who He is, but what He is; we want to know what is inside of Him. We preach Christ the Son of God, therefore, our emphasis is on His configuration.

John 1:14

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”

When you behold, you fix your gaze.

John 1:16-17

“And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.”

What Jesus came to give to us is grace from His inward nature. What He gives is commandment of life. All of the Beings have their faith: the Holy Ghost has His faith, the Father has His faith, and the Son has His faith. If they have their commandment they must have their faith.

Jude 1:19

“These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.”

The program of the faith of the Son is meant to destroy the law of sin and death. It doesn’t make us fully perfect in terms of completeness, but it makes us perfect in terms of maturity. The Son of God is perfect in completeness.

Hebrews 5:8

“Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;”

Perfection is perfect in completeness. The faith of the Son is to make us mature, and maturity is that you are a spiritual man. A spiritual man is one who judges all things and he is judged of no man. He can discern but nothing faults him. Charity is the bond of perfectness. A man who attain to charity is a mature man, but he is not a complete man.

Ephesians 1:17-18

“That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:  The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,”

You must begin to see Christ to be raised after Him.

Jude 1:19

“These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.”

These are they who saw Christ, but they were not raised after Him. The vision of Christ is not a man’s thing, it’s for all. We were all born with our sensual ambition, and sometimes we want to keep a part of our ‘self’ instead of letting all go. What Jesus wants to do is to take away everything; the law of Christ is the law of duly taking away all. The program of death survives in that space you reserve; don’t reserve any space for self. The program that is meant for this people (Jude 1:19) is finishing the faith.

Jude 1:20-21

“But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,  Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.”

Your most holy faith is the space of the love of God; it is the gate way unto everlasting life. It is the domain where the love of God is manifested, and those who can come in there are those who are not sensual and who are separating themselves. Everlasting life has its own faith; it is the most holy faith. Christ life is called holy faith or the faith of the Son. The Holy Ghost life is called faith. Faith is the knowledge of the Son of God. It is a dimension of the righteousness of God revealed.

Everlasting life is the faith of eternal life. It is the faith of the gift of God. Everlasting life is from everlasting unto everlasting, and it is from most holy faith to most holy faith. The faith of Christ is faith to faith.

We can’t inherit God without the faith of God which is everlasting. Everlasting life is righteousness revealed which is everlasting righteousness. We will practice faith in everlasting life, which is righteousness in another standard. The target of this faith is to destroy the works of the devil.

1 John 3:8

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”

The law of Christ is to destroy laws. When you have the law of Christ it makes you spiritual. A sensual man does not have the law, because it is law against law. Christ wants to give to us the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:2

“For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.”

The fact that you are free does not mean that sin and death cannot hold you back; the person behind it has to be destroyed. The next target after destroying sin is to destroy death. When the devil activated sin, he did not know that sin has another side that is stronger, which is called death. Therefore, when you sin you activate death which is stronger than sin.

We inherited sin and death; but the program for us not to die the second time is to use everlasting life. To destroy death we need a program that can expire death, and everlasting life is a program that can destroy death. What kept Abraham, David and the other prophets under and didn’t make them break into the realm of the above was death. As you move from faith to faith in Christ, ensure that you move from everlasting to everlasting; in doing this you are getting the program that will destroy death.

1 John 3:8

“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”

In knowing God, we must know the faith or power of the everlasting life. The faith of the Son is His (Christ) power, while the power of God for eternal life is eternal power which is everlasting life. Eternal life is immortality, but the training to it is eternal power. If God will make His Godhead known, He must make His eternal power known.

Jude 1:20-21

“But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,  Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.”

The power of the world to come is everlasting life; it is eternal power.

The devil sinned from the beginning; from the realm of everlasting life. He saw the life and chose another life. We need to know the works of the devil. To see his works, you must have moved to the age of everlasting life. We need to know the difference between demons and spirits. Spirits do not respond to casting out. We are in the phase of demystifying the Son of God, so that we can have the properties to handle the works of the devil which are evil works.

2 Timothy 1:9 -10

“Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:”

The life in this scripture is not Christ’s life; the life is made manifest by the appearing of the Saviour Jesus Christ. When the life is made manifest, there is the giving of power that will help men to come into the life. This appearing of the Saviour is the appearing of the great God. The next phase of manifestation is how everlasting life and eternal life can be made manifest.

What makes Lucifer a devil is a tree. Devil is D-Evil (the evil). What makes him the devil is a tree. Evil is a tree, and it could be planted in Eden and alluring to Adam who was created as the son of God; it was a tree of promise and the promise is alluring.

Evil is a light.

John 3:12-15

“If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?  And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.  And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:  That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.” 

If a man doesn’t move to this zone he will perish. There is a power that makes him perish.

John 3:16-17

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” 

From the zone of everlasting life to eternal life is a safe zone. The goal is to be raised to everlasting life.

John 3:17-18

“For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.  He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” 

Condemnation in this scripture is limitation or not being able to access. It is a barrier that cannot be broken. If the veil is not torn there is no access. To be condemned is to perish, and this happens when a man do not believe in the revelation of the begotten Son. Evil can still catch up with such men, and they can do the works of the devil. The essence of Christ is to move men to God’s garden.

John 3:19

“And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” 

These are ‘men’ not children.

John 3:20

“For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.” 

The light spoken of in this scripture is everlasting life. Men that practices evil use the evil light or the light in the tree. When Adam and Eve ate of the tree their eyes were opened. Adam saw the hope of eternal life and subjected it for another. Evil is a high wisdom, but it is a corrupted wisdom. God did not raise Christ at Jordan to be able to destroy evil, He was led from evil.

Matthew 6:9-13

“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.  Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.  Give us this day our daily bread.  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.”  

We have to be delivered from evil; if we are allowed to face evil we will be gone. Jesus at Jordan was a Son that can deal with the world. There is the evil in the world, and there is a world. The world is lust, and the evil in the world is knowledge. All that the devil was showing Jesus was enticing; He was led of the Spirit to be tempted, because as Christ He should be able to overcome it (Matthew 4:1-11).

What Jesus dealt with was so real, and they also want to make it real to us. If the devil had gotten Jesus He would have gotten a great asset. We have been sanctified from the works of the flesh for a purpose. The anti-Christ combines all things, and when a man combines all things he can become a tool to the beast.

Matthew 4:8

“Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;” 

As the devil was showing Jesus the kingdom of the world, He knew their strength and powers. The light of those things is what is called evil; it is the light of great hope of dominion. It is the kingdom that satan sits upon to control. What satan uses to manage the whole earth is evil.

Isaiah 28:16

“Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.” 

You can believe in the tried stone, and not believe in the precious corner stone which is the key to the sure foundation.

Isaiah 28:17

“Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.” 

‘Lies’ is darkness of the evil one (not of idols). There are idols that moves or translate to lust which the faith of Jesus Christ destroys. What the enemy put together to overcome the world is a pack of lies. It is refuge of lies. For everyone that does evil or practices the lie, it is a sign that he hates everlasting life. ‘Lies’ is what stature of men on earth uses for transaction. Things are not as simple as they appear.

Anyone that can use the light of the evil one will hate the light; because the target of the light is to expose and destroy evil. What the world is feeding on is the fruit of evil, but the real source is the tree. There is a knowledge that produces that evil, it is a hope

John 3:20-21

“For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.  But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” 

Doing truth is practicing the truth of everlasting life. Men will have to do truth as a sign that they love the Lord. The realm of the above is from the realm of the everlasting life. Christ is the bridge between the earth and the heaven.

John 1:18

“No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.” 

He came down from heaven and came to show man the pathway. There is only one who has ascended to heaven. All those in heaven didn’t ascend.

John 3:13

“And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.” 

John 3:31-32

“He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.  And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.”  

‘No man receiveth his testimony’, they must become spirits to receive the testimony. All the teaching that Jesus came under are teachings of the Father to turn Him into an everlasting man. Jesus of Nazareth had to be taught; the Father worked in Him as Christ but had to do a new work.

Jesus Christ didn’t teach the disciples about Himself, He was teaching them the Father, but He knew that they could not receive it, and that is why the Holy Ghost came. Christ sent Paul and the other apostles to first teach us of Himself; they came to unveil wisdom which is Christ. In Christ there are changes that will happen to us that will prepare us for the major change. You can’t deal with the wisdom of this world in Christ; you will have to move unto the hidden wisdom.

1 Corinthians 2:5-7

“That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.  Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:  But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:”  

There is the wisdom of God, and there is also the hidden wisdom. Christ is also a wisdom. To escape sin is not simple, you have to have wisdom. There is a gap between wisdom and hidden wisdom. In everlasting life, it is a program of death, but in Christ it is dying; and as you die, you live. That is, dying daily.

John 4:6

“Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.” 

The well of Jacob is the well of the fathers and Jacob is the third of the fathers. These fathers are all everlasting men. The promise was made to the fathers. This well was kept for Jesus, because all the wells represent Him.

John 4:9-10-11

“Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.  Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.  The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?” 

John 4:13-14

“Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:  But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.” 

The water He was talking of is Christ’s water. If you take Christ’s water to the end, it will spring up. Jesus was telling the woman that He is the fetcher. Get Him and you will get the water. No one can go through the death process if he is not a man who has loved Christ to the end. God gave the commandment of everlasting life to Jesus Christ. Doctrine is the consistent teaching that can hit the spring. There is a doctrine that can make you break into the spring because the well is deep.

Matthew 6:22-24

“The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.  But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!  No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” 

Matthew 19:24-25

“And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.  When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?” 

Jesus has many disciples and He kept them at their level, because not all disciples can be a disciple unto eternal life.

Matthew 19:21-22

“Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.  But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.”  

This man claimed to have done the entire curriculum, and then Christ gave him the commandment of eternal life. The hidden wisdom is the wisdom to lay down; you have to learn how to die. There is a way to die.

The key to being able to sight Him is that your eye is single, and the way to make your eye single is for God to take away all other treasures. The only problem of the eyes is treasure.

What makes evil is being able to see treasure outside of the treasure of everlasting walk. There are treasures buried in the earth.

Isaiah 45:3

“And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.”
