Part 4

Verse 16, And the Lord God commanded the man saying, of every tree of the Garde= n, thou mayest freely eat. KJV

The Hebrew word translated commanded= is much more complicated than it appears to be at first sight. It mean= s to appoint, or to constitute, and can also mean to cause to exist.

Webster=3Ds says that the w= ord appoint means to provide what is needed, the word constitute means to give lawful order, and the word exist means to come into being, or to have real being whether spiritual or material.

The English word to exist is fro= m a root that means to stand, or to rise into an erect position.

The Scripture describes spiritual weakness as = lying down in a bed. Wherefore, the promise of the Word of God to us who believe is that we shall stand up. Indeed, we shall rise up into a spiritua= lly erect position by the spiritual power of the Lord Jesus Christ, and tred the ungodly soul realm under our feet.

Death is separation from God. The soul realm is separated from God and is, theref= ore, the realm of death. This Satanic realm is a place teeming with organisms which mortal man calls life, but the Scripture call= s it death.

= The consciousness that exists in the realm of death is forced under our spiritu= al feet when we stand up in spiritual strength. Death can no longer hurt us. Curses cannot hurt us, demons = cannot hurt us, even Satan, the unconscious part of our own Carnal Mind cannot hurt us, because we will have full spiritual authority over him.

Obviously, to be lying down on a piece of grou= nd that is covered with worms, ants, roaches, maggots, and other kinds of pestilence, is revolting. The pestilence cannot touch you if you have = good leather boots on and are standing up on your feet, but you can step on it. = That is the reality of mortal man

Those of us who are in a ministry like this on= e, are most likely sitting up in that bed. We are just starting to rise, because a= scension is a very painful process.

And the Lord God commanded the man saying . . . . The Hebrew word transl= ated saying, means to impose one

Many people read this Bible and can even quote= long passages of the Scripture, but they do not understand it. Someone told me t= hat they listened to a program on the radio recently, where all the Scriptures that = we are preaching here were being quoted, but they were saying completely diffe= rent things about them. Most Christians have a carnal knowledge of the Scripture, but they do not have the spiritual understanding.

A knowledge of the Tree of the Knowledge of Go= od and Evil means a deep understanding, as opposed to a surface knowledge. The word, knowledge, can also be used to suggest sexual= intercourse, or to be taught by experience.

We are talking about partaking of the Tree of = the Knowledge of Good and Evil, which means to have an intimate experience with evil that can be likened to sexual intercourse.

We are talking about spiritual copulatio= n, which, whether we copulate in the natural or in the spiritual, results in t= he birth of children.

Copulation with the Tree of the Knowledge of G= ood and Evil produces the Satanic realm, the unconscious part of the mind of ca= rnal man.

Copulation with the Tree of Life produces the = Mind of God.

The Hebrew word translated good = means fertile land, the kindness of God, wealth, <= i>welfare, and happiness. The Hebrew word translated evil= means bad, evil, noxious, m= alignant, envious, and is from a root that means (which I find very interesting), to be good for nothing, to break down into pieces.

We have been discussing over the past few mont= hs how the creation is in pieces. The living soul that fell is in three parts, Ada= m, Eve, and Satan, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind, and if you have Ch= rist, you also have Adam, who is Christ. &n= bsp; Whoever has Christ is a part of Adam, who is Christ. You probably al= so have a few demons.

The creation is in many pieces which are fused together in an incorrect moral order, with Satan, the unconscious part of t= he Carnal Mind, on top, ruling over us, the personality, and tyrannizing us. W= hen Jesus Christ comes into our life, He breaks up the Carnal Mind. He breaks t= he pieces apart.

&n= bsp; He is rearranging them into the proper moral order, and when that is accomplis= hed, He is going to fuse them all together with Satan underfoot and with Ch= rist on top.

This word evil means to be broken down into pieces. What God is saying here is very interestin= g, and it is a very important point. He is saying that a person that is manifesting what we would call evil behavior is spiritually immatu= re.

= &= nbsp; For years I have been saying, How could God stand us, how He could He sta= nd our affliction, how could He stand our demons, how could He stand our short comings, how could it be? He has shown me, in no uncertain terms, t= hat He could stand it, because in His eyes, we are His spiritual babies. <= /o:p>

We know what our children do to each other. Th= ey beat each other, and they would kill each other if we would let them go unr= estrained. They have no concept at all of not hurting their brother or anything like t= hat.

The most evil, malignant person is a person th= at has been broken down into pieces, that is without Christ, and, thus, spiritually immature. It is the will of the Father to put the pieces back together agai= n, and raise up the entire creation, back up to the high realm of the spirit w= here it will not be evil anymore.

How many times do you see a bratty kid and say= of him, That kid, oh boy! and he grows up to be a wonderful solid citizen in society? Well, this is how God views evil. He views the evil man= as a spiritually immature person, and that is how He hates the evil that the person is doing, but He does not hate the man.

He loves the man, so He calls him to repent, a= nd He will call him to repent, and He will call him to repent. If he will not rep= ent, He will rein judgment on him, because the Lord cannot permit rebellion= to continue. He never stops loving you, because He understands that you are ju= st a spiritual child. That is the definition of evil.

I am going to read Verses 16 and 17 in t= he King James, and then I have an Alternate Translation for you.

Gen 2:16-17

16, And the Lord God commanded the man sayi= ng, of every tree of the Garden thou mayest freely eat, =

17, But of the Tree of the Knowledge of Goo= d and Evil, thou shalt not eat of it, for in the day that thou eatest, thou shalt surely die. KJV

I forgot to tell you that the Hebrew word tran= slated die is also very interesting. It means to fail,= and it is referring to land. Is that not interesting? We know tha= t we are land, and it means that the land will remain untilled.

We know from the prior meetings that the Son o= f God is appearing in the earth of mankind to till it. We found out the Hebr= ew word translated tilled means to subdue the earth. It means, to bring it into submission to the spiritual man, where the natural man will serve the spiritual man.

The wickedness of the earth is running wild, h= e is unrestrained, because there is no spiritual man in the earth. That is = the Scriptural definition of death -- separation from God.

Someone asked me a very good question last Sun= day morning, Did God not permit all of this wickedness and all of th= is false doctrine, specifically false doctrine, to get into the church? <= /o:p>

My answer to that person is this. It is not so= much that God permitted it, but because it is taking so long in the natural realm for the Son of God to appear in the earth of mankind, and since there was no one there to subdue the earth, the Satanic realms, have multiplied, and false doctrine, and all kinds of wickedness have come forth.

It is not so much that God permitted it, but t= hat there was an absence of Him for the season. There was a vacuum created beca= use there was nobody there to subdue the earth, either the earth of the unsaved man, or the earth of the saved man who is producing false doctrine. Hallelu= jah.

Here is my alternate translation.

Gen . 2:16-17, Alternate Translation,

16-17, And the Lord God provided Adam with what he needed to come into a lawful moral order, which raised him to an erect position of real spiritual being, and God imparted into Adam's very being a knowledge of the spiritual= law of God, which says that it is lawful for the mind of man to copulate with t= he mind of God, thus reproducing the life of God, but it is unlawful for the m= ind of man to copulate with the Satanic realm, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind which exists within man himself, because such an unlawful cop&s= hy;ulation would result in the reproduction of the Satanic realm in the mind of that m= an.

The ultimate result of such a moral failure (to copulate with the Satanic realm), is that the earth, with all of the wicked= ness in it, will not be subdued.

The only one who can enslave the land, or subd= ue it, or put it underfoot, is the Son of God.&nb= sp;

When the Satanic realm is reproduced in our mi= nd, the Son of God is trodden underfoot, and the Satanic realm, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind, is ruling.

Heb 6:4‑6

4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers = of the Holy Ghost,

5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,

6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again= unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. KJV=

This means that by giving power, by giving leg= al grounds to the Satanic realms, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind, has risen up, and is now on top of the Christ Mind.

We have had a lot of messages like this. Only = Christ or dam can be on top at one time. When we do certain things that give Satan legal ground to rise up in spiritual power, the result is that the Son of G= od is put underfoot. Both minds cannot be up at the same time.

When our mind is turned over to the Satanic re= alm, when we copulate with the Satanic realm, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind= , we are treading the Son of God underfoot and, therefore, we die. That is what death is -- separation from the Son of God.

When God put Adam into the correct moral order= , Adam was on top, his emotions underfoot, and the Satanic realm, the unconsc= ious part of the Carnal Mind, way down at the bottom. Satan was just giving the creation form, and did not have anything to say about decisions or anything else. He was just supposed to serve his function. That is the proper m= oral order.

When God said to Adam, And the Lord God commanded the man saying, of every tree of the Garden thou mayest freely ea= t.Y<= /b> He was saying, ...This is your proper order, I am giving y= ou authority over the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, over Sa= ;tan, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind. I have given you the imputed anoin= ting of God, and you are now strong enough to rule over the Tree of the Knowledg= e of Good and Evil. I have told you what is right, and I have told you what is wrong. Now live!

But, if you eat of the Tree of the Knowledge o= f Good and Evil, and you give the Satanic realm an opportunity to reproduce itself= in your mind, you are going to die, because you will have tread the Son of God= underfoot.

Nevertheless, we all know that this is what happened.

Gen, 2:18, And the Lord God said, it is not= good that the man should be alone, I will make a helpmeet for him. KJV

What in the world is God talking about? We tou= ched on this a couple of services ago. We know from a prior message, that t= he translation of Verse 15 where it says, And the Lord God took the man and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and keep i= t, is that the imparted anointing of God was imparted to Adam.

The Lord God Himself entered within Adam. He m= arried him, He joined Himself to him. Adam was the protector, and the salt of the earth. What then is God talking about when He says, It is not good for a ma= n to be alone?

Let us analyze this. The Hebrew word translate= d alone means separate or apart, and it is from a root, which means <= b>to divide or to be solitary. Webster's says it mean= s, separated from others, isolated, without aid or support.

Support means to hold up or serve as a foundation or a prop and to keep somet= hing going.

= &n= bsp; Very often in the Scriptures (we talked about this in another meeting), the Holy Spirit will make a statement, which, if you can acknowledge that the Holy Spirit said it, you will also have to acknowledge that the opposite is true.

If Adam was alone, for example, then he was no longer was with God. In one verse he was married to God, and two verses dow= n, he is alone.

We do not know how it happened, but if God sai= d, It is not good for a man to be alone, I have to make him something to sup= port him, we must confess that God divorced Adam.

Can you say amen to that?

PASTOR VITALE (speaking directly to a member of the congregation): You cannot say= amen to that? If I say to you, you do not have jet-black hair, does that not imp= ly to you that you either have brown, blonde or red hair, despite the fact tha= t I never said that you have blonde, brown or red hair? If I said you do not ha= ve jet-black, dark brown, medium or light brown hair, but you do have hair, wh= at conclusion would you draw? You would assume that you have another color hai= r, that it is either blonde or red or white or grey. Right? =

If God says that Adam is alone, that means tha= t God cannot be with him. If somebody is divorced, and I say to you that so‑= ;and‑so does not have a husband, then you know that they are alone. This kind of reasoning leads us to believe that Adam has been divorced by God.

I will make a helpmeet for him<= span style=3D'font-family:Shruti'>. The Hebrew word translated make means to make by labor, and the Hebrew word translated = helpmeet means to aid, help, assist. It has nothing whatsoever to do w= ith the word wife.

It means to surround or to defend, and Webster's definition of the word aid is an auxiliary or instrumental device.

Adam had been divorced by God, and there was something that he needed that he did not have, in order to continue on. God said, I am going to give you a helpmeet, because it is not to your welfare to continue in your present condition. You are lacking something. T= here is something lacking from you since I divorced you.

Gen. 2:18, And the Lord God said, it is not good that the man should be alone. I will make him a helpmeet for him. KJV

Gen. 2:18, Alternate Translation, And the Lord God said, it is not to the ma= n's benefit, and will work against his welfare to be separate, isolated, a= nd without aid or support. I will make an instrumental device which will suppo= rt him or help him to continue to perform the function that I have ordained for him to fulfill.

Adam was missing something that he needed, so = God told him that He would provide, or satisfy that need.

Out of the clear blue sky, in Verse 19, God says,

Gen 2:19, And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every fowl of the air, and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them, and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. KJV

That is very confusing. What in the world is God talking a= bout? First, Adam is married, then Adam is alone, then God is going to make a support for Adam, and then, all of sudden, God is forming the beast of the field. What is going on here?

The message that God has given us today (the r= est of the message) is a study on the beast of the field. I will tell you what I am trying to establish before we go on, so that you can, hopeful= ly, understand what I am saying, and follow along with what I am saying. <= o:p>

I am suggesting to you that the beast of the f= ield is not the pigs, and the cows, and the goats, and the chickens, but that th= ese animals are types that represent the many members of humanity that God ordained to come forth from Adam.

Remember, Adam was a spiritual creation. God t= old him to go forth and multiply, and we see billions of men and women across t= he face of the earth today. This was God's intention: that there should be many members of humanity. God made only one living soul; He created one living s= oul, which has many members.

We know that there are only two men in the ear= th, there is fallen adam, and there is Christ, and they are both many‑mem= bered bodies. If you do not have Christ, you are a member of the many‑membe= red body of fallen adam. The second man, Christ, is coming to subdue the earth = man and bring him into servitude.

When you receive the Holy Spirit, the apparatu= s to birth the Christ is present in you, and you begin to be baptized into the b= ody of Christ, which process can take years to fully complete.

We can say there are three kinds of people. Th= ere is a very large group of men that are of the many‑membered body of fallen adam. They do not have Christ.

Then there are people in the earth today who a= re both in the many‑membered body of fallen adam, and the many‑mem= bered body of Christ Jesus. These are two men.

= &= nbsp; Then there is Christ, and the only man that I know of that is totally Christ is = the Lord Jesus Christ.

There is a warfare going on. The Son of God in= us (if we have the Lord) is at war with the fallen adamic realm, and intends to subdue him. Christ is supposed to enslave fallen adam, but fallen adam does= not want to be enslaved.

If you are going through trials and tribulatio= ns and problems, it is because there is a warfare going on, and the warfare is not with the demons hanging around in the sky. The warfare is between the emerg= ing Christ in you, and the fallen adamic man that has ruled you virtually from birth. Fallen adam has ruled powerfully in this earth for centuries, and ha= s no intention of turning to the Lord Jesus Christ. In the darkness of his fallen condition, adam does not comprehend that he has no choice. Fallen adam will submit to Christ, whether he agrees to do it, or not. He really thinks that he is right, and is in total rebellion against the Son of God, and thi= s is the reason for the warfare that is going on.

The Lord Jesus Christ is in the process of ple= ading with fallen adam. This is the word that the Scripture uses, pleading.= The Lord Jesus is pleading with fallen adam to submit to Him, but when the = Lord God pleads with you, He pleads with fire, He pleads with judgment. The Lord= God comes to you in love and He says, Submit to me, but when your answer is, No way, corrective judgment falls.

I was over at someone's house the other day, a= nd her two‑year old said he was getting his bike or something, and I said, A= re you going to let me ride? He pointed his finger, and said, No way! That is = what fallen adam is saying to Jesus Christ, No way, I will not submit to you!

Jesus gave us a parable in which He said they = killed his prophets. They tried, and they did indeed crucify the Son of God, becau= se, in the darkness of their minds, they really do not have the understanding t= hat it (His subduing the creation) is going to happen whether they fight it or = not.

There is hope, however, because we are told in= one of the Epistles of Paul that the powers and principalities shall indeed un&= shy;derstand the purposes of the Living God in the earth, by the Word of the Church.

The Lord God is raising up the true Church rig= ht now with the true word of God that is being preached to the powers and princi&s= hy;palities in our own mind, and to the powers and principalities in the believer that = is a natural man manifesting on the soul realm, and to the natural man that does= not have Christ at all.

The Word of Truth is going forth that the Lord= Jesus Christ is subduing, and shall subdue the earth of mankind. Therefore, man&s= hy;kind should give it up and throw itself in line with God.

This is how God pleads with you. If you say, <= b>No, He pours judgment down, fire and brimstone until you are lying down on the floor and saying, I give up. He will pulverize you.

God is no wishy washy, mollycoddle. He is God,= but a lot of people today do not know who He is. He is very long suffering, He lo= oks the other way, and He winks for long periods of time. However, when He calls you in and He says, Now is the hour that I am dealing with you, and you do not submit to Him, and you do not repent, corrective judgment wi= ll fall on you, and it will continue to fall until you submit.

That is our God. Judgment is an act of mercy, = and it is an act of love, because what He is doing is delivering us from the realm= of death. If He does not judge us, we will continue in our sins, and if we continue in our sins, we will continue to die. Our natural example is our children. We know that to beat our children is to love them.
We are going on with our study on the words field and beast. I am going to try and, hopefully, will impart = to you by the power of God manifesting through me, an understanding of who = the beast of the field is, and what the field is. =

There are two Hebrew words translated fi= eld in the Scripture. The Hebrew word translated field in the = Book of Genesis, merely means a plane or a field.

Psalm 96:12, Let the field be joyful and all that is therein, then shall all of the t= rees of the wood rejoice. KJV

The Scriptures tell us that there is life in t= he field. There is life in the field, and I suggest to you (you are going to have to = pray about this as it is not that clear), that this Psalm is not speaking about = cows and pigs and goats when it says, all that is therein.

The word joyful merely means = rejoice.

There are three Hebrew words translated = beast. When I first went into this study, I became confused. I had been studying f= or over an hour already, when I said, Lord I have a problem here. For fi= ve years, I was taught that the beast of the fields was the demo= ns. What is going on here?

We have learned in this ministry that demons a= re the offspring that result when the mind of man copulates with the Satanic realm, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind. Such copulation produces the fruit, demons, which are spiritual parasites that live in our spiritual, and sometimes in our physical body.

The Lord showed me that there are three differ= ent Hebrew words translated beast in the Scriptures. There is the Hebrew word chay, Strong=3Ds #2416, which comes from a root that means to live, or to keep alive. It means alive, hence raw (flesh). It can be translated living creature. It is the Hebrew word translated = beast in Genesis 2:19, which we are studying right now.<= /span>

Then there is the Hebrew word translated beast that is Strong=3Ds #929 means one cow, or one goat. Behemoth, the mystical beast of Job 40, is the totality of the cows. May the Lord qu= ickens this to you.

There is a third word translated beast, which also involves the second word translated field in the b= ook of Daniel, Chapter 4, starting with Verse 12, <= b>

Daniel 4:12, And this is the dream that Nebuchadnezzar had, it was about a tree, the leaves thereof were fair, and = the fruit thereof much and in it was meat for all, the beast of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the bowels thereof, a= nd all flesh, was fed of it. And I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed a= nd behold, a watcher and a holy one came down from heaven, and he cried a= loud and said thus, hew down the tree, and cut off his branches, you see it is a man, shake off his leaves, and scatter his fruit, and let the beast get away from under it, and the fowls from his branches. KJV

I am suggesting to you that the Hebrew word translated field here is to be void of wood or = villages It comes from a root that means cleaned up grain, corn, and t= he word beast means animal, living animal.

I am suggesting to you that there is all kinds= of spiritual life that can be reproduced in the mind of man. When the Life of = God is produced in the mind of man, the mind of man is a field that is lik= ened to winnowed corn, which is good for making bread.

Winnowed corn means corn that you have taken the chaff off of it, and the = beasts that are produced is the Life of God, the fruits of the Spirit. They are alive, and they are in order, because hey are dwelling under the t= ree of Christ who is in order (or, as we read in Daniel, which ta= lks about Adam before he fell), and all is well.

We, mortal mankind, are the dumb beast, = the four footed dumb beast. This is not very flattering, brethren, but = I am suggesting to you that we are the four‑footed dumb beast that God pla= ced His spiritual life in. The life of the Son has been placed in these animal bodies, which we are, making us the sons of God.

I am trying to establish that the field<= /i> was Adam, and that when God formed the beast of the gro= und, He formed the potential for spiritual life in every one of us. <= /span>

We know that there is a Scripture in the Book of Job that says, God knew from the beginning, He wrot= e in the book every member that Adam would produce before he produced it. Do you remember that Scripture?

God wrote in a book how many members there wou= ld be in the body of Adam, but before Adam could produce all of us, he had to have the seed of the life.

Just like a woman needs to have ovaries with e= ggs before she can produce a child, God made a provision for spiritual eggs to be placed in human beings as = we know them today.

First of all, remember (going back to Sunday's message), that the Living Soul, the earth and the life of the Son in the Li= ving Soul, was all lumped together. Then God separated the lump out into the hum= an spirit, the human soul, and Satan, the unconscious part of the Carnal Mind, which continues to be formed while for as long as we exist.

The next thing that God did was to provide spi= ritual reproductive organs, and all of the eggs that would be the members of Adam's body, which we are today. These are the beast of the field= .

Continuing on with this study. . . =

I have a reference for you. =

Joel 2:22, Be not afraid ye beast of the field, for the pastures of the wilderne= ss do spring, for the tree beareth her fruit, the fig tree and the vine do yie= ld their strength. KJV
