February 18, 2007 "The Tree Of Life
Bears Fruit and God’s People Come Full Circle" **** [Note, all the Visions, between February 4-18 were written prior to adding the scriptures to any of the separate days and visions.] It is important for the reader to know that over the last few months Jesus has had me take all of the wafer/bread of communion without breaking it in two. At that time He said it was "heaven and earth together as one". This morning, during communion, the following happened as I took the Bread of Christ’s Body. Jesus said to break it in half. He said to eat the bigger of the two pieces first. As I did, He said that this piece was for me alone. Then He said to eat the second half for all my sisters and brothers in Heaven and earth. As I ate, I heard Him say, "That’s My Girl", which caused me to cry. He had called my physical sister, Bonnie Thomason, and myself "His Girls" {plural} for years, especially when He spoke and wrote through Bonnie. She was resurrected into Heaven on May 1, 2006. I then heard Jesus say, "Take, this is My Blood", so I picked up the juice of communion and began to drink. Immediately I was sitting in God our Father, on His throne, looking down at His people through His eyes. They were so numerous I could not see them all. I think all but one had on a white robe. The one man was in street clothes, and He was just slightly taller than the others. I could see his blood stained head and clothing again. The large group of people covered by the Tent/Tabernacle material became obvious, and the cover was again sitting on top of, or over, this large mass of people. There were just a few exposed at the front. The large mass of people {all peoples, nations and tongues}, from the previous vision, quickly became the few on their knees, and their heads were bowed in worship before our Father. God our Father, with me in Him, stood up, and immediately the ground and people were closer to us. As He stood up, He became Jesus Christ, the man, in appearance, and I stood beside Him. We were in the Spiritual realm/reality. He then, with me behind Him, walked down the few steps from His throne, His Father’s throne, to the people. There was a walkway at the end of the steps and we began to walk forward on the path. As we did, the first and second tent and the "covered" people disappeared. Only the few spiritual beings in white robes stood on Jesus’ right and left side. We were outside, and there may have been trees behind the few standing beings. These beings are the "remnant" of the people from the two tents. For some reason, as we walked down the path, I tried, mentally, to see more beings on both sides of the path. At the end of this very short path, Jesus asked me how many beings/trees I had seen. I looked again because I wasn’t sure. He asked a second time, and I said three on the right and two on the left {as we had walked from His throne to the end of the path}. I then changed my answer and said "two or three on the left, with three on the right". As we stood together at the end of the path discussing this, He and I stood next to each other. However, this was not obvious until He turned His body directly towards me. As He turned He looked directly into my face and I saw His face. I don’t think I realized this at first because He said, "you saw/see My face", and again looked directly at me, and I at Him. I was beyond these written words in Joy, Amen. His face was absolutely beautiful and filled with love beyond belief. We were everything and everyone in that one moment. I knew Him, know Him, Amen. Everything else disappeared but the two of us and our faces looking at each other. Then He showed me our bodies standing face to face. He emphasized that I was a little shorter than He was, as if we were in the physical realm. I’m not sure why He did this, but He did it several times. When this was completed I saw where I was. Jesus had placed me at the far end of the path beside the two beings on the left side of the path, and now there were three on each side! Again, I thought to myself that there should be a total of twelve. I then saw Jesus turn around to walk back to His throne. As He did, He said for me to see that the beings, now including myself, originally standing on His left {as He walked down the path from His throne}, were now on His right hand side because He was walking the opposite direction. He stood facing His throne and then turned around again (towards the end of the path), while He told me to "see". Several times Jesus walked back and forth, and up and down the path between the trees. He did it in order to emphasis that both those on His right hand and left hand are/were equal. He then had me go to the Bible and again look up Revelations 21 + 22... **** Interpretation {given March 19, 2007} of February 18, 2007 "The Tree Of Life Bears Fruit and God’s People Come Full Circle" Vision This morning, during communion, the following happened as I took the Bread of Christ’s Body. Jesus said to break it in half. He said to eat the bigger of the two pieces first. As I did, He said that this piece was for me alone. Then He said to eat the second half for all my sisters and brothers in Heaven and earth. As I ate, I heard Him say, "That’s My Girl", which caused me to cry. He had called my physical sister, Bonnie Thomason, and myself "His Girls" {plural} for years, especially when He spoke and wrote through Bonnie. She was resurrected into Heaven on May 1, 2006. I then heard Jesus say, "Take, this is My Blood", so I picked up the juice of communion and began to drink. Immediately (1)I was sitting in God our Father, on His throne, looking down at His people through His eyes. They were so numerous I could not see them all. I think all but one had on a white robe. The (2)one man was in street clothes, and He was just slightly taller than the others. I could see his blood stained head and clothing again. (1) "I was sitting in God our Father, on His throne": [Rev 3:21] "To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne , as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne." NKJV Revelations 21- 22 teaches us that the throne of God, our Father, and the Lamb, Jesus Christ, will be in the city {New Jerusalem}, Christ’s Bride/Wife. In other words, both the power and authority of God will be in, and come through, New Jerusalem, Christ’s Wife, along with Christ Jesus. As a representative of the Wife, I sat "within" our Father in this vision. Our Father is the one who promised us His own Spirit who is holy. When we receive the Holy Spirit, through Jesus Christ, we have access to our Father and His power, authority, and voice for the first time. It is the Holy Spirit, living within each child of God, that feeds and speaks to the heart and mind of Christ in each believer. The Holy Spirit is the "unifier" of God’s one eternal spiritual church. He/She is both the nature of God and the power of God’s transformation in us. In this vision the "Wife" has been filled with God who is Spirit, and therefore She is sitting with God. She has become holy and is "ONE" with God through Her Husband Christ Jesus. (2) "one man": Jesus identified this "one man" as Himself. {Chris’ Vision continues} [(1) "The large group of people covered by the Tent/Tabernacle material became obvious, and the cover was again sitting on top of, or over, this large mass of people." [Revelations 7:9-11] "After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language <Rev 5:1-End>, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice: ‘Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.’ (1a)All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. (1a) "all the angels":
"New Exhaustive Strong's
Numbers and Concordance with Expanded Greek-Hebrew
Dictionary" defines the word translated "angel" in the
Old Testament as: "dispatch as a deputy; a messenger;
specifically, of God, i.e. an angel (also a prophet,
priest or teacher)..."; and the New Testament word
translated as "angel" is: "(to bring tidings); a
messenger; especially an "angel"; by implication, a
pastor". [(2) "few
exposed at the front":
Those under the Tabernacle covering are stones, or children, in God’s Temple, Christ’s Body, because they have received salvation through Christ’s blood. Our Father is Spirit, and these children seek to worship Him in His Spirit. Those in this Vision are obviously doing so. He has left a "remnant" on their knees, exposed for His viewing, immediately before His throne. The others are covered under the (2a)Tabernacle Tent: [Eph 2:19-22; NKJV] "Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord {Jesus Christ}, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God {our Father} IN THE SPIRIT. (2a) "Tabernacle Tent": In the Vision February 17, 2007 "People Are Added To The Tree Of Life", I wrote: "Then I saw our Father raise the cover. It now had attached sides that came up with the top. The sides and top completely enclosed all the people except the front row. It fully covered and PROTECTED the people, but I could still see the front row uncovered. It was then that I realized that the sheet/cover with "no sides" had covered a larger group of people than the "sided" tent now did. God said we were now in His Holy of Holies, and emphasized that it was enclosed. God sat within the Holy of Holies looking down on the people. I did not see the roof at this time, but I am sure we were inside." The "enclosure" indicated that we were with our Father and thus safe and protected.
Originally I thought I was in the Old Testament
Tabernacle. However, after re-reading this I realized
that it isn’t until John received his revelation from
Christ in the New Testament <Rev 7:9-15>, that we
were shown God our Father pulling the tent cover over
the peoples’ bodies. In this part of the Vision, the
people/we are definitely in the NEW Holy of
Holies in the promised New Tabernacle. Yes, the Word does say only our Father knows the exact day and time these events will happen. However, Jesus did not say that He, who is the Spirit of Prophecy <Rev 19:10>, will not discuss them with us/you when they are spiritually happening, or about to happen physically and/or spiritually. God has often warned His children in order to protect them, for example. [(2a1) "Final Harvest" for the next three and one half years": Suggested Reading: January 16, 2007 "3 ½ Years Are ... The Final Harvest As You Know It"] {Chris’ Vision continues} God our Father, with me in Him, stood up, and (1)immediately the ground and people were closer to us. As He stood up, (2)He became Jesus Christ, the man, in appearance, and I stood beside Him. We were in the Spiritual realm/reality. [(1) "Immediately
the ground and people were closer to us": This is
because Jesus was stepping down to earth, God’s footstool. God
said to Israel, through Stephen: [Acts 7:48-52; NKJV] "However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says: 'Heaven is My throne, and earth is My footstool. What house will you build for Me? says the LORD, or what is the place of My rest? Has My hand not made all these things? You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you. Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute?..." [(2) "He became Jesus Christ, the man, in appearance, and I stood beside Him": Prior to this, Jesus was standing with the people on earth in blood stained clothing and body. As our Father stood up He became "Jesus Christ in appearance", or Jesus who "has risen". I believe this may be because He is addressing those physical beings on earth who are moving into the Spiritual realm/Spirit, or walking in the Spirit now. All power and authority has been given to Jesus by His Father. In fact, His Father and He are one. All members in Jesus’ Wife stand beside Him and share His power and authority through His family name, just as a wife here on earth would. They also are one. Thus, the Father and Christ’s Wife are one through Christ Jesus.] {Chris’ Vision continues} [(1) "His throne, His Father’s throne": The "throne" belongs to both Jesus and our Father? Yes, Revelations 22:1 confirms this for us: "And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb... And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God {our Father} and of the Lamb {Christ Jesus} shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him." Notice, that John said "His servants shall serve Him {singular and not plural}". We are not told that John saw the number of the servants before God’s throne. Revelations 22 is the last chapter of the last book of the Bible. The word "servants" is therefore all inclusive, meaning all in Christ Jesus. {Christ’s Vision continues:} (1) "I tried, mentally, to see more beings on both sides of the path. At the end of this very short path, Jesus asked me how many beings/trees I had seen.": [Rev 22:1-2] "And he showed me
a pure (1a)river of water of life,
clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of
the Lamb. (1b)In the middle of its
street, and on either side of the river, was the tree{s}
of life {on either side of the river},
(1c)which bore twelve fruits, each
tree yielding its fruit every month. (1d)The
leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
(1a) "river’ of
the (1a1)water of life, as clear as
crystal": All within New Jerusalem, Christ’s
Wife, were thirsty and have overcome through their faith in
the Word, Christ Jesus <1 Jn 5:4-5; Rev 2:7, 11, 17, 26;
3:5, 12, 21>. We know this because John envisions the river
of "life", eternal life, running right through Her. (1a1) "water
of life": [Rev 22:17] "The Spirit and the
bride {Wife} say, ‘Come!’ And let him who hears
say, ‘Come!’. Whoever is thirsty, let him come;
and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of
the water of life" NIV. Suggested Reading:
Rev 21-22. (1b) "In the
middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was
(1b1)the/a tree{s} of life":
There is a minimum of at least one "Tree of Life" on (1b1)
"the/a/": This word was inserted in
transliterations/translation. (1c)
"which bore twelve fruits, each tree
yielding its fruit every month": As a tree
reproduces it’s "fruit" in the image of itself, the parent
tree, so does the "Tree of Life" in this vision, in John’s
vision and throughout the Bible. Obviously, a physical
"fruit" tree, such as apple, pear etc, can reproduce either
"fruit", such as apples, pears and so on, or another "fruit
tree". Both reproductions are considered the "fruit" of the
parent tree. Who has the right to eat the fruit from the
"Tree(s) of Life"? [Rev 22:14] "Blessed are those
who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the
tree of life and may go through the gates into the city
{New Jerusalem}." NIV They wash their robes and then they can go through the gates into the city, New Jerusalem. Revelations 19:7-8 informs us that the members in Christ’s Wife have done just that. Their linen robes are the "righteous acts of the Saints": "... the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His Wife has made herself ready. And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the RIGHTEOUS ACTS of the saints. NKJV [Prov 11:30] "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise. NKJV (1d) "The leaves
of the tree were for the healing of the nations":
In the Vision,
February 17, 2007 "People Are Added To
The Tree Of Life" I said, "Below, I saw
the crowd of people literally begin to rise into, and become
one with, the Tree of Life. As they rose they were all in
clean white robes and standing with their hands raised in
worship. All were consumed by the Tree as they became one
with it. By consumed, I mean they disappeared from my view
and became one with the Tree. Some rose directly into the
trunk area. Others rose into the trunk area and continued up
into the leaves and were totally consumed there. Some rose
directly into the leaf area and became leaves immediately.
{Christ’s Vision continues:} [(1) "I saw His face": [Rev 22:3-5] " And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever. NKJV {Christ’s Vision continues:} [(1) "He emphasized that I was a little shorter than He was": This has to do with the previous vision and the fact that the "one man" with the bleeding body and blood stained clothes was "slightly taller" than all the other people, including me. This man was Jesus and, at that time, in that vision, He was on earth. I believe Jesus is again emphasizing that all are less than He is, whether in heaven or on earth.] {Christ’s Vision continues:} (1) "three on each side": It is the Tree of Life that reproduces these trees on both sides of the path, with His Wife, His Spirit filled Church. These are called "Trees of Life" because Jesus is the eternal "Tree of Life" and these are in His image. Christ is shown as the "Tree of Life" in the Garden of Eden, John’s vision and my vision. Obviously, this is symbolic because Christ is not literally a physical "tree". Through the "Tree of Life", originally shown in the garden of Eden in Genesis, God is telling us that He is literally taking mankind and His people back to the beginning of time. His covenant process has now come full circle. {Chris’ Vision continues} (1) "the trees": This is amazing! In one part of these vision(s) I saw "beings" along the path, and in another I saw "trees". The "trees" and "beings" are obviously one in the same, just as Jesus Christ and the eternal "Tree of Life’ are one in the same. **** SUMMARY and Updates: Yahweh is showing us in this February 18, 2007 vision how very close we are to "the end of time". In His visions He has brought us, His children, full circle. Using the "Tree of Life" He has shown us glimpses of His original creation and Adam {mankind and the man}, His covenants with Abraham and Moses, and His covenant through Jesus Christ who is the covenant that completes all others. Nelson’s Illustrated Bible Dictionary helps us to better understand the meaning of "covenant" saying: "The New Testament makes a clear distinction between covenants of Law and covenants of Promise {Jesus Christ}." "A covenant, in the biblical sense, implies much more than a contract or simple agreement. A contract always has an end date, while a covenant is a permanent arrangement... The word for covenant in the Old Testament also provides additional insight into the meaning of this important idea. It comes from a Hebrew root word which means "to cut." This explains the strange custom of two people passing through the cut bodies of slain animals after making an agreement with each other (Jer 34:18). A ritual or ceremony such as this always accompanied the making of a covenant in the Old Testament. (1)Sometimes those entering into a covenant shared a holy meal (Gen 31:54). (2)Abraham and his children were commanded to be circumcised as a sign of their covenant with God (Gen 17:10-11). (3)Moses sprinkled the blood of animals on the altar and upon the people who entered into covenant with God at Mount Sinai (Ex 24:3-8)." (1) "Sometimes those entering into a covenant shared a holy meal {ie Communion}": In these visions, God showed Christ’s Wife standing before our Father taking holy communion", the holy meal, as She was accepted by our Father. He accepted her BECAUSE of His Son’s, Her Husband’s, sacrifice for sin. Suggested Reading: February 4, 2007 , "Christ, Our ‘Bread Of Presence’ In Our Father’s Temple" (Vision) (2) "Abraham and his children were commanded to be circumcised {in the flesh} as a sign of their covenant with God": God later told Israel, "Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your hearts, you men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem..." [Jer 4:4; NKJV]; and "You stiff-necked and (2a)uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you. Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute?" [Acts 7:51-52; NKJV] God’s message to us today is the same as it was to Israel. (2a) "uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit": The Holy Spirit circumcises our hearts and ears so that we see and hear Spiritual things. God has said to me many times that we are to see and hear as He does. (3) "Moses sprinkled the blood of animals on the altar and upon the people": Today, rather than having the blood of a sacrificial lamb sprinkled externally on us, we consume the blood of the final sacrificial lamb, Jesus Christ, during communion with Him. <also read Rev 6:9-11> The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia tells us: "... the covenant of God with Abraham is another ceremony {different from the covenant between Yahweh and Israel at Sinai}, quite certainly with the same purpose. This is a peculiar observance, namely, the cutting of animals into two parts and passing between the severed portions (1)(Gen 15:9-18), a custom also referred to in Jeremiah 34:18. (1)Here it is to be noted that it is a smoking furnace and a flaming torch, representing God, not Abraham, which passed between the pieces. Such an act, it would seem, should be shared by both parties, but in this case it is doubtless to be explained by the fact that the covenant is principally a promise by Yahweh. He is the one who binds Himself." (1) "(Gen 15:9-18)" and "Here it is to be noted that it is a (1a)smoking furnace and a flaming torch, representing God, not Abraham, which passed between the pieces. Such an act, it would seem, should be shared by both parties, but in this case it is doubtless to be explained by the fact that the covenant is principally a promise by Yahweh": [Gen 15:9-18; NKJV] "So He {God our Father} said to him, ‘Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon. Then he brought all these to Him and cut them in two, down the middle, and placed each piece opposite the other {as the trees were on either side of the path}; but he did not cut the birds in two. And when the vultures came down on the carcasses, Abram drove them away. Now when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, horror and great darkness fell upon him. Then He said to Abram: ‘Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land... And it came to pass, when the sun went down and it was dark, that behold, there appeared a smoking oven and a burning torch that passed between those pieces. On the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying..." NKJV] (1a) "smoking furnace and a flaming torch, representing God": Nelson’s Study Bible in their notes on Genesis 15:17 say: "a smoking oven and a burning torch: These symbols represented the glory of the Lord to Abram... This oven and torch imagery may indicate ... the promise that God’s word to Abram will be kept. ‘Between those pieces’: This last element has profound implications. In covenant agreements between equals (party treaties), both parties would pass between the bloody pieces of slain animals and birds. The symbol would be evident to all: (1a1)‘May I become like this if I do not keep my part of the deal’. But Abram was not to walk this grisly pathway. Only God made the journey in the symbols of smoke and fire. The fulfillment of the promise of God to Abram, the Abrahamic covenant, is as sure as is the ongoing life of the Lord! (See also 22:15-18) 15:18, (1a2)The same day that Abram believed in the Lord (v 6) and counted it to him for righteousness, God made a covenant with him... As I read the definition of "covenant", I found it extremely interesting that Jesus, our Husband, and I, representing Christ’s Wife, walked down a path through the middle of the resurrected eternal "Life"/"Trees of Life", the remnant and seed of Christ. These spiritual beings, placed on both sides of the path, are the product of our new covenant, Christ, becoming one with the Wife, His Church, New Jerusalem. (1a1) "May I
become like this if I do not keep my part of the deal’.
But Abram was not to walk this grisly pathway":
"The bloody pieces of the slain animals and birds"
foreshadowed Jesus on the cross: unrecognizable after
being beaten, and after the diseases of the world had been
placed upon Him. (1a2) "The same day that Abram believed in the Lord (v 6) and counted it to him for righteousness, God made a covenant with him": We are told in 2 Corinthians 5:21 that Christ was made sin so that we might receive His righteousness. This is what He exchanged on the cross with us. When we receive this gift from God it is "counted to us for righteousness" and we are for evermore in an eternal covenant with God through Christ, Amen. {International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
continues} [(1) "life of the victim": We receive our eternal "life" from, and through, Christ Jesus’ "life". He is the "victim". [(2) "kindred with the tribe": In this Vision, the Wife of Christ, who is "kindred of the tribe" and nation under the King Christ Jesus, Her Husband, walked through the sacrifice, and was taken into the sacrifice, or "victim", Jesus Christ, by Christ Jesus Himself. [(3) "equivalent of the drinking of each other's blood": In Christ’s Communion we drink Christ’s blood. Each vision, in this series of visions, was given to me during communion or immediately afterward. I, as a representative of Christ’s Wife, walked with Jesus down the path that went from His throne though the middle of the trees/spiritual beings. As we envision this, we are shown the manifested fullness of God’s Promise to Christ through His original covenant with Abram/Abraham. In Galatians 3:16-18 Paul teaches, "Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, ‘and to seeds,’ as of many, but as of one , ‘and to your Seed ,’ who is Christ. And this I say, that the law, which was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God in Christ, that it should make the promise of no effect. For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise." Nelson’s Illustrated Bible Dictionary tells us, "These many covenants of promise may be considered one covenant of grace, which was fulfilled in the life and ministry of Jesus... Jesus' sacrificial death served as the oath, or pledge, which God made to us to seal this new covenant. He is determined to give us eternal life and fellowship with Him, in spite of our unworthiness..." In the Vision February 11, 2007 "Repetitive Vision With Jesus & Chris Walking" we were shown the Bride’s assent into heaven with Her Groom, as Jesus and I left the physical and walked up the hill towards New Jerusalem. My/our eternal life, the Tree of Life, moved to either side of our walkway, from right to left and vise versa. In these visions, we saw Jesus go from Groom to Husband, and His Bride, New Jerusalem became His Wife. We saw the "Tree of Life" position Himself in the middle of New Jerusalem, His Wife; while New Jerusalem became a golden wedding ring. A covenant of completion became apparent. In this last Vision, we saw Christ and His Wife walk down an aisle, or path, between divided trees/spiritual beings, just as God did in His original covenant with Abram/Abraham. In this February 18, 2007 vision, God does not walk down the aisle or path alone, He walks with His "completed" people, Christ’s Wife. ADAM Genesis 2:9, above, tells us that the "Tree of Life" sat in the middle of God’s garden in Eden. It was the "Tree of Life" that God withheld from mankind when they ate from the "Tree of KNOWLEDGE of Good and evil". The "Tree of {eternal} Life" was removed when God established "death" because mankind possessed "KNOWLEDGE of good and evil". "For as in Adam all die, (1)even so in Christ all shall be made alive. But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ's at His coming. Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power. For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet. The last enemy that will be destroyed is death {one who eats from the "Tree of Life" does not die}. For ‘He has put all things under His feet.’ But when He says ‘all things are put under Him,’ it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted. Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him {God our Father} who put all things under Him {Jesus Christ}, that God may be all in all. [1 Cor 15:22-28; NKJV] (1) "even so in Christ all shall be made alive": This scripture is telling us that "in Adam ALL of mankind dies, and in Christ ALL shall be made alive." ABRAHAM MOSES In this series of visions we have witnessed Yahweh’s/Jehovah’s acceptance of Jesus Christ and those members within His one Body. We understand that we now stand in the Presence of God our Father again. In Moses’ time only the High Priest was able to do this. The congregation sat on the other side of the "veil", which hung between the Holy of Holies where our Father sat and the place where the congregation remained. The High Priest was permitted into the Holy of Holies only one time per year on the Day of Atonement. Today because of Jesus Christ, our High Priest, we are able to walk through the veil into the presence God our Father and know our atonement {at-one-ment} with God forever. We see a (1)"remnant" formed and left uncovered, either for our Father’s continued gaze, or to represent the (2)"offspring" spoken of in Revelations 12:17. In this vision, February 18, 2007, those few on their knees remained in His presence in spiritual warfare, whether on earth or in heaven. These six beings/trees are the remnant, the "Trees of Life" on both halves/sides of the path shown to both John and myself. (1) "remnant": With regards to the "remnant", Revelations 12:17 teaches, "the dragon was wroth with the (1a)woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her (1b)seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. KJV The NKJV of the Bible translates the "seed" as "offspring": "And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her (1b)offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. NKJV (1a) "woman": "... gune; ... a woman; specially, a (1a1)wife: KJV - wife, woman."
(1a1) "wife": God told His priests/Israel in Malachi 2:13-15, "And this is the second thing you do: you cover the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping and crying; so He does not regard the offering anymore, nor receive it with goodwill from your hands. Yet you say, ‘For what reason?’ Because the LORD has been witness between you and the wife of your youth, with whom you have dealt treacherously; yet she is your companion and your wife by covenant. But DID HE NOT MAKE THEM ONE, HAVING A REMNANT OF THE SPIRIT? AND WHY ONE? HE SEEKS GODLY OFFSPRING. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth." NKJV After reading this full verse, Malachi 2:1-15, some will say that God was speaking solely to His "priests". God says in the Bible that we are His "priests" now <1 Pet 2:9>. In fact, it is His intent to have a holy nation of Priests <Ex 19:4-6; 1 Pet 2:9; Rev 1:6, Rev 5:10, Rev 20:6> (1b) "seed/offspring": "... sperma...; ... something sown, i.e. seed (including the male "sperm"); ...offspring; specifically, a remnant (figuratively, as if kept over for planting): KJV - issue, seed." [New Exhaustive Strong's Numbers and Concordance with Expanded Greek-Hebrew Dictionary] According to God, you are either in Christ, and therefore within the one Seed of Abraham and spiritually a Jew, or you are a Gentile {anything not Jewish/Christian}. This is not the normal Christian teaching on this subject, and I highly suggest you read our very short article called "Who Is A Jew". CHRIST and SUMMARY: In these visions, we see not only eternal life, the "Tree of Life", returned to mankind/God’s people, we are also given insight into Christ’s reproduction of spiritual life, "trees" in His own image, with His Wife, His Church, New Jerusalem. We were also shown beings in Christ’s image as leaves on our "Tree of Life", Christ Jesus. We are shown their transformation into His light, as the leaves, or spiritual beings, are prepared to heal the nations as promised in Revelations.. In this particular vision, February 18th, we see God our Father walking in Jesus Christ as one entity, just as God walked between two halves when cutting Abraham’s covenant. However, this time Christ’s Wife, accompanies Him. She has been prepared by Christ and walks in His righteousness. She is, and has been, by our Father as the Wife of Christ. She is not only Christ’s Wife, but also New Jerusalem His completed church. Because God can now discern Christ’s heart and mind in His people, we see Him restore to them AGAIN His eternal life, seen here as both the "Tree of Life" and Christ Jesus our Savior. Christ, our new and final covenant, is teaching us that this final covenant not only embodies God’s covenant with Abraham, but also with Moses and Adam. We should be shouting literally with thanks and praise at the defeat of our enemy, and Christ’s victory in our behalf, These visions and God’s covenant agreements convince us that Jesus came to heal and unify the two halves {all} together within Himself. The two halves represent God and mankind, God and His people, Jew/Christian and Gentile (all other religions and also pagans), God/Christ and His Wife, and finally both Heaven and earth. [Eph 2:11-22] Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh — who are called Uncircumcision {not Hebrew/Jew/Israelite} by what is called the Circumcision {Hebrew/Jew/Israelite} made in the flesh by hands — that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth {citizenship, community} of Israel and strangers from the covenant of Promise {to Christ through Abraham}, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For He Himself is our (1)peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making (1)peace, and that He might reconcile them both to God (2)in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. And He came and preached (1)peace to you who were afar off {not a Hebrew/Jew/Israelite} and to those who were near {Hebrew/Jew/Israelite}. For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father. Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners {non Hebrew/Jew/Israelite}, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ {Messiah in the Hebrew language} Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. NKJV (1) "peace": Suggested Reading: On August 25, 2007 I wrote on our website page "God's Latest Prophetic Word Regarding Today" "Today God took me into the Spirit and I was given a very short vision. I was in a park I had been in previously with my sister, Jesus and God our Father just before my sister was resurrected. In today's vision, Jesus handed me a "gift". It was a square package, and Jesus said it was a "gift". As Jesus handed me the "gift" it opened into/became a white bird/dove that attempted to take flight. This bird represents the Holy Spirit and as she grows she is filling, and thus being filled with, Her members: Christ's Body, the Wife... The bird and I became one and grew and grew while in mid air. I/it continued to grow throughout the short vision. As the very huge bird (about 3 times taller than Jesus, and very plump {perhaps pregnant?}), tried to take flight, Jesus and my resurrected sister stood on either side (one on each side) of the bird in order to contain her. Even though I was the bird, I also saw this vision outside the bird/myself. Jesus stood on the birds left side and my sister stood on her right. The bird was strong and there was at times a struggle between the three: Jesus and my sister attempting to hold the bird from flight. At times it appeared as though her body slipped away from Jesus as she attempted to fly upward, and he restrained her by taking her foot. The bird never took flight, but continued to attempt to as the vision ended. Jesus then said this was the "bird of Peace", and He asked me to re-read Genesis 8:6-12 about Noah, both the "raven and the bird/dove, and the ark. Which I did. If you read this please note that as I read Genesis, Jesus pointed out that there was a "black bird", raven, and then the "dove" which I believe, and Jesus confirms, is white. He then reminded me of the "black bird" in the following vision "Egypt/China Pushes The World Into The DEEP" which was originally dictated to me by God in 1997, and is now manifesting physically on earth. In this vision you will see the black bird attempt to attack the Holy Spirit, or "white bird" and be stopped. This happens at the same time China pushes the world into the deep. Give special attention and time to the Note and Updates in this "China Vision". (2) "in one body
through the cross": This "Body" is Christ Jesus’ and
all "members" in His "One Body." Suggested Reading:

Of Convergence - 2 WIFE: In February 11, 2007 "The Tree and New Jerusalem; Repetitive Vision beginning on February 4, 2007 (cont.)" we saw that the Tree of Life, Christ Jesus, had positioned Himself within New Jerusalem, His Bride, Wife, and one eternal church. In this February 18th vision, six beings appear "uncovered" before the Throne of God and in front of the tabernacle tent. His Wife’s members are/will be in the image of Christ who is in the image of God our Father. Jesus’ Wife, New Jerusalem, is specifically mentioned in Revelations 21:9, but the whole 21st chapter teaches us about Christ’s Wife. John then tells us about the "Tree of Life" in the next chapter, Revelations 22:1-19, where we see the "Tree of Life" become more than one tree. If we read all this scripture as one teaching we quickly realize that the "Tree of Life", Christ Jesus, is reproducing/multiplying with His Spirit filled Wife in Revelations 22:2, after the Wedding Feast, or marriage. Therefore, God definitely mentions "Christ’s Wife" in Revelations 21 before the multiplication of the Tree of Life in Revelations 22:2. Christ and His Spirit filled Wife reproduce spiritual life, or in John’s vision "Trees of Life" in Christ’s image. (1)These are "completed". "This number will increase daily over the next three years", says Yahweh/Jehovah on March 22, 2007. According to His other writings through me this will would be during the time of the (2)Final Harvest. We learn through both John’s and my visions, that Christ and His Wife will, or have begun to, reproduce "spiritual beings/life". In John’s vision these "children" are the Trees along the river/street, and in my vision the trees are on either side of a very short path. These "trees" are the trees/fruit and leaves that heal the nations. This "fruit" is the "fruit" of the Spirit who is holy, who fills every member of Christ’s Wife <Rev 22:17>. In this series of visions, God does not walk down the path between the "trees of Life" prior to saying Christ’s Wife is completed and fulfilled. It was only after Her change and "completion" in heart that Jesus Christ, our new covenant and the perfect sacrifice, and His Wife walked down the middle of God’s chosen "covenanted" spiritual remnant. (1)The time of completion is at hand! It is a blessing to know God’s intentions for His children. (1) "These are "completed" & "The time of completion is at hand": Suggested Reading: February 16, 2007 "The Marriage Of The Bride: The Husband and Wife" (Vision). In this vision, God taught us about His "completion" in us, and said His Wife is now "completed". It was as a representative and member within Christ’s "Wife", His Church, that I was completed in God our Father. When God did this, He also "completed, or "fulfilled", the time and body of the Gentiles, or all who were not and are not, within Christ and His one spiritual nation Israel. On July 11, 2007 God confirmed that both His Wife and "the fullness/COMPLETION" OF THE GENTILES {pagans converted into Christ/Christians} has come", and Israel’s partial blindness will now end. In Romans 11:25-32 Paul says to Christ’s Church, "For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the (1a)fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved. The Deliverer {Christ Jesus} will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob; for this is My covenant with them {Israel}, when I take away their sins. Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. For as you were once disobedient to God {Gentile}, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy. For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all {both Jew and Gentile}" NKJV. (1a) "fullness": New Exhaustive Strong’s Numbers and Expanded Greek-Hebrew Dictionary defines the Greek New Testament word translated above as "fullness": "NT:4138 pleroma ... repletion or completion, i.e... multitude...". In the February 16, 2007 "The Marriage Of The Bride: The Husband and Wife" (Vision), God wrote through me, "As I drank this, I again realized that both our Father and I partook of this {communion blood/juice} together along with all our brothers and sisters who receive Jesus’ sacrifice. Our Father said, ‘we are one, and you are completed in Me, and I AM completed in you.’" (2) "Final Harvest": Please read: January 16, 2007 "3 ½ Years Are ... The Final Harvest As You Know It" and January 29, 2007 "God’s Goodness Abounds During The Next 3 Years". Israel will now be given the opportunity to hear and see God, just as the Christians, converted Gentiles, have had for over 2000 years. However, if you are in Christ you are neither Jew nor Gentile. We are all Christians because we are followers of "Christ": "There is neither Jew nor Greek {Gentile}, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." [Galatians 3:28-29; NIV] What about those Gentiles, atheists and agnostics or other religions? They are also "Gentile", and according to God, their time/body membership is also "full"/"completed". Why then does the world continue to grow more evil? God has said this would happen in His Word, the Bible, and through many writings on our website. However, in short, these "Gentiles" receive God’s wrath in for the sake of conversion to Christ as their Savior. God’s wrath is not a punishment. Remember "Judgment Day" has not yet arrived. God’s wrath is probably the most drastic tool God has, or ever will use in order to convert the world to Christianity. I believe this may very well happen after the 3 ½ year FINAL HARVEST. However this is my opinion and God has not confirmed it. As with all God’s Word, we never want to jump ahead of God Himself. Wait for God to say or show you. We will be/are judged on such things. In John’s visions and in my visions, God is showing us future events that have already begun to occur in the Spiritual realm. God gave His physical Promised Land to a physical Israel centuries ago, and now delivers His spiritual "Promise" to the remnant of Christ, spoken of in Micah 5:2-5 {Please read all of Micah 4:1-5:5. Micah 4:1 places this chapter’s prophecy in the "latter days"}: But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Therefore He shall give them up, (1) "Judah": Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary: "A name applied first to the people living in Judah (when the Israelites were divided into the two kingdoms of Israel and Judah); after the Babylonian Captivity, all the descendants of Abraham were called "Jews." The term is used in the New Testament for all Israelites as opposed to the "Gentiles," or those of non-Jewish blood. Since a number of Jews (especially the Jewish leaders) were hostile toward Jesus' ministry, the New Testament sometimes speaks simply of "the Jews" (John 6:41), when it really means "those Jews who did not believe in Jesus." This is especially true in John's Gospel (John 5:16,18; 6:41,52; 7:1). Because the Jews were God's Chosen People, Paul could speak of the true "Jew" as being the person who pleases God, whatever his race (Rom 2:28-29). In the Christian church, distinctions between "Jews" and "Greeks" (or Jewish people and foreigners) are wiped away (Gal 3:28; Col 3:11)." The New Unger's Bible Dictionary: " ...(... Heb. yehudi). A Jehudite, i.e., descendant of Judah; Grk. Ioudaios, a name formed from that of the patriarch Judah and applied first to the tribe or country of Judah or to a subject of the kingdom of Judah (2 Kings 25:25; Jer 32:12; 38:19; 40:11; 41:3; 52:28) in distinction from the seceding ten tribes, the Israelites. From the time of the Babylonian captivity, as the members of the tribe of Judah formed by far the larger portion of the remnant of the covenant people, Jews became the appellation of the whole nation (2 Macc. 9:17; John 4:9; 7:1; Acts 18:2,24). The original designation of the Israelite people was the Hebrews, as the descendants of Abraham. Thus Paul was appropriately called a Hebrew, and still later the terms Hebrew and Jew were applied with little distinction."
