<LivingEM> Father in the Name of Jesus, we break every curse coming against this meeting, and cast it to the ground, we cancel Satan's plans to kill, steal and destroy, and send forth the Spirit of Christ to help us enter into your life.

It is time for the Church to enter into the life of God. The parable must fade, and the spiritual truth must come to the forefront.

IsaiahSixty1, the Lord wants me to tell you that you are very strong today. You have had a spiritual increase, and you are beginning to fly. Praise the Lord!

It is time for blind eyes to open, for the hidden things to be exposed, and for Christ to be revealed, so that the Church can have a spiritual relationship with the Lord Jesus.

Jesus is not limited to 12 disciples. We are all His disciples. The only thing that has changed is Jesus' position, from flesh man to glorified man. Actually, it was not the man, Jesus, alone, who had disciples.

Who within Jesus was the spiritual teacher?

<LAMB> Elijah?

<LivingEM> Actually, it was Adam, but Adam is never alone. The glorified Elijah is always with him. So the two, Adam and the Spirit of Elijah taught, as one spiritual man, through the man, Jesus, which elevated the man, Jesus, to the spiritual office of Christ. Jesus, the Christ, who was God in the days of His flesh, is now a glorified, spiritual man who has transcended the need for a physical body.

So we see that the spiritual man, Adam, swallowed up the personality of the man, Jesus. This means that the personality known as Jesus was absorbed into Elohim's spiritual household, where Adam is the wife, and the glorified Elijah is the husband. And Elohim's whole family in heaven (Eph. 3:15) is now appearing to the Church of the Living God as one spiritual man, manifesting through the flesh of surrendered mortal men.

Jesus is still drawing disciples to Himself today, and teaching the same things that He taught His twelve disciples 2,000 years ago.

Can anyone tell us what Jesus taught His disciples?

What were Jesus' disciples being trained for?

<LAMB> He came to set us free from the captivity of this world by giving us His mind via the truth. To become sons.

<LivingEM> That's what Jesus came to do for the world, but we must learn to give answers that do not need to be interpreted.

What was Jesus teaching His disciples?

And what does it mean to be a son?

<LAMB> To overcome our carnal mind. To come into the nature of Christ.

<LivingEM> Yes, Jesus taught His disciples that it was necessary to overcome their carnal mind and ascend into the nature of Christ.

But to what end?

Did Jesus teach His disciples these things for their own gain?

What was, and is, Jesus' root motive for teaching His disciples?

What is our job?

What are we being trained for?

What is our commission?

<LAMB> To impart the mind of Christ to others.

<LivingEM> Yes, we are called to show the Church their sin nature and the activities of their sin nature, for the specific purpose of weakening and ultimately destroying that sin nature. Christ Jesus, the nature of the glorified Jesus Christ, is formed within the personalities of humanity to deliver them from the body (sin nature) of death (Rom. 7:24). The carnal mind calls forth physical death, but the living mind of Christ Jesus calls forth eternal life.

From this point of view, I suggest to you that most of Jesus' teaching and activities in the days of His flesh were directed towards His own disciples, to train and raise them up as Saviors to Israel (Ob. 21).

I have told you in other studies that the Hebraic use of the word "multitude" means "spiritual ones," rather than "many people." The spiritual people followed Jesus, but the carnal ones could not recognize Him, so, for the Lord's sake, the spiritual believers must teach the carnal ones.

What do I mean, "for the Lord's sake"?

Does anyone know?

Mortal humanity is the wife of Christ Jesus who fully intends to occupy her, but we are living with another lover, and most of God's people will fight to remain with their present lover. The Lord could break us away from our adulterous lover without our cooperation, but it would kill us, so Christ Jesus has chosen to educate His run-away wife.

The members of humanity who understand that they have a sin nature, and fight to destroy it, which is the true repentance, will survive the destruction of this spiritually criminal world. But those who reject the truth about their own spiritual self, and refuse to destroy their sin nature, will cease to exist when the sons of the glorified Jesus Christ shut down this criminal age.

Such an end is not "punishment" for rejecting the Lord, who will have done everything to get them out of the burning building, but the fulfillment of their own subconscious desire to die with the spiritual lover of their choice.

We are the glorified Jesus Christ's disciples in the earth today, and He is teaching us the same lessons that He taught the twelve. The unconscious part of the carnal mind directs our lives, whether the conscious part understands what is going on, or not, and with or without her agreement. And For this reason, it is urgently essential that we lay hold of the strength of Christ Jesus to destroy our carnal mind, so that we can live out of the mind of Christ.

I will review some spiritual principles before we begin to translate John, Chapter 6.

"The multitudes," are "the spiritual people."

"The sea," signifies "Satan," who represents "the astral plane," the spiritual side of mortal man.

"To be diseased," can signify spiritual, as well as physical disease.

"Passover," is a spiritual, as well as a physical feast.

"To lift up ones eyes," signifies "looking into the Spirit."

"Bread" signifies "the Doctrine of Christ," and/or the messenger (personality) that the mature Christ Jesus preaches through.

"To eat" can signify consuming, ingesting, or comprehending the Doctrine of Christ. In a negative sense (which is not evident in John, Chapter 6), "to eat" can signify consuming a person's energy.

"Lad" has always signified the engrafted young Christ in my previous studies.

Who remembers what "fish" signifies?

<Jsngsng> Leviathan.

<LivingEM> Yes, Leviathan is "the Principal Fish" in Satan's sea, and the secondary fish are the ascended fiery serpents within mortal men who are experiencing the astral plane, which is "Satan's sea."

You may recall from our study called "Fishing For Leviathan," that one of the Greek words translated "fish," means "fish dried or cooked and used as a condiment."

The spiritual significance of the Greek word translated "fish" in John, Chapter 6, which means "cooked, dried fish," is that Leviathan is cooked when Christ Jesus, the Lake of Fire, boils Satan's sea. Leviathan is "dried out" as Satan's waters boil away.

"Grass," signifies "Adam," or Christ Jesus in a mortal man. There are three Hebrew words translated "grass," signifying (1) "Abel/Christ," and (2) "Adam/Christ Jesus" in two stages of maturity.

"Sit down," means "to marry" in spiritual translations,

"Numbers" usually signify "the energy centers" -- either the specific energy center, or some identifying feature of the energy center, such as how rapidly the energy center vibrates.

"Mountain," signifies "the throat (5th) energy center," and "high mountain" means "the brow (6th) energy center. "

Does everybody understand that we all have spiritual locations within us that the Scripture identifies with geophysical names? Are you aware that scientists identify areas on the surface of the physical brain with geophysical names, such as "mount...."? They do.

Study In John, Chapter 6
<LivingEM> At the end of John, Chapter 5, Jesus is rebuking the Pharisees for believing Moses' writings, but denying that Jesus is the incarnated Word of God.

I recently heard a preacher moving in the Gold Dust Anointing rebuke some unbelieving preachers who came to try the spirit on him. Jesus did not do this, brethren.

John 5:47, But if ye believe not [Moses] writings, how shall ye believe My words? (KJV)

<LivingEM> First of all, Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for not believing HIS DOCTRINE. The Gold Dust Preacher said nothing that we have not heard for years in the Baptist and Pentecostal Churches, and rebuked the visiting preachers for not believing HIS SIGNS.

Concerning signs, Jesus said ...

Matt 12:39, .... An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:

40, For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth (KJV).

[For more information on the Gold Dust Deception, see the transcript of our On-Line Meeting, Gold Dust & The Lord's Nature, and the transcripts of our audio messages, The Gold Dust Anointing, and Innocence Lost - The Church Seduced.]

<LivingEM> The four-sided parallelogram is the geometric expression of Christ Jesus, and the number "three" signifies the Serpent's triangular world.

So we see that the Serpent and the members of her household are lacking one side, their 4th leg. The members of the Serpent's household look and act like spiritual men, but don't have the goods. One might even say that Satan's rage against Christ Jesus is a case of spiritual "penis envy."

So Jonah was in the belly (3rd) energy center of Leviathan's (whale) timeline, but the Son of Adam [occupies the left side of] the heart (4th) energy center, [which is above the Fiery Serpent, the coiling part of] the personality (the earth).

Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for failing to recognize the physical manifestation of what they knew, or should have known, to be the fulfillment of Scripture. We must take every rebuke that comes from Christ Jesus wherever He is appearing, and reject every rebuke that comes from the carnal mind, wherever that carnal mind is appearing, even if our most trusted friend comes against Christ within us, or against our submission to the Counsel of Christ Jesus.

But I warn you, as always, that you had better be sure that you are hearing from the Lord, and not from your proud and rebellious heart, before you reject a Word from someone that you know to be a spiritual elder in Christ.

And, so, we come round circle, once again, to the foundational principle of our spiritual walk in Christ:

We must dominate our carnal mind sufficiently enough to discern, OUT OF THE CHRIST MIND, whether an opinion is truly of Christ Jesus, or we are on very shaky ground.

<LivingEM> Therefore, our primary focus as disciples should be the exposure of our own sin nature, and our own battle to dominate her.

So, at the end of John, Chapter 5, we see Jesus rebuking the Pharisees for disbelieving what their own Christ mind was telling them.

The Pharisees were so caught up in self-preservation and in their own self-interests, that their carnal mind was covering the Christ mind within them. So Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for covering Christ Jesus, their spiritual manhood, and agreeing with the female opinion of their carnal mind.

John 6:1, After these things Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee which is the Sea of Tiberias (KJV).

<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "after," means "in the midst of"; the Greek word translated "these things," can be translated "them"; and the Greek word translated "went," means "behind," which term signifies the unconscious part of the mind.

The "sea" signifies Satan's astral plane, and the Greek word translated "over" can also be translated "to pierce through."

"Galilee" means "heathen circle." There is no Greek word translated "sea" before the Greek word translated "Tiberias," which is the name of a Roman emperor. The Lord revealed in a recent message that "emperor" is one of Satan's titles. The Interlinear text reads "sea of Galilee the Tiberias."

The "circle" signifies the visible, physical world, and the "triangle" signifies the Serpent's spiritual world.

Jesus pierced through Satan, the Emperor of the astral plane in the midst of the Pharisees, who were consumed with their own self-interests and lust for power because their consciousness was in their belly (3rd) energy center.

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:1, [And after Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for covering their Christ mind], Jesus pierced through Satan, the Emperor of the astral plane in the midst of the Pharisees, [and raised their consciousness into the left side of their heart (4th) energy center],

John 6:2, And a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His miracles which He did on those who were diseased (KJV).

<LivingEM> So we see that the spiritual (multitude) Pharisees followed Jesus.

The Greek word translated "great" can also be translated "many," or "most." Now, if "multitude" really means "many," "great multitude" would mean "many, many," which is a superlative: "A great many." But if the word "multitude" really means "spiritual," and perhaps there were only a few spiritual ones, then the Greek word translated "great" should be translated "most," and the phrase, "a great multitude," should be translated, "most of the spiritual ones."

.....And most of the spiritual [people] followed [Jesus]...

<LivingEM> Why did the spiritual people follow Jesus?

Because they saw His miracles.

But Jesus just got through rebuking the Pharisees for looking for a sign. So what miracles did Jesus do?

<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "they saw" can also be translated "they experienced," and the Greek word translated "diseased" can also mean "spiritually impotent."

Brethren, I have been saying for a long time now, that Jesus healed more than the physical bodies of the people He touched. I have found in the Scripture that when Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, He raised him all the way into the brow (6th) energy center. The lame man that Peter prayed for leaped into the left side of his heart (4th) energy center, and also received a physical healing. They both had Abel/Christ, "the faith to be healed."

Who is our faith?

<LAMB> Christ.

<LivingEM> Yes, Christ is our faith.

Does the carnal mind have faith?

The carnal mind has only hope that Christ will be formed in the personality.

Was Jesus prejudiced when He said "healing is the children's bread"?

No, my friends. Jesus was saying, "unless you have Christ, the bread from Heaven within you, any healing I give you will be temporary. Satan will surely swallow it up and give you another disease, and a worse one if she can."

And the woman who said "...yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table" (Matt. 15:27), like Cornelius(Acts 10:22-31), demonstrated that her hope was in the God of Israel. Both this woman and Cornelius, two people who did not descend from the physical line of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob, strangers in Israel, heard about Jehovah, believed the promise of a saviour, and Christ, the faith of God, was formed in them.

Do you think Jesus healed the woman's physical body alone?

No, my friends. Jesus said that this woman had the same faith that is found in Israel (Matt. 15:28). She had already received Christ, the Kingdom of God, and was, therefore, eligible to receive Jehovah's righteous nature (Matt. 6:33).

It is very hard to hear when you are under the water of the astral plane, brethren, so Jesus raised the spiritual Pharisees into the left side of their heart (4th) center so that they could understand what He was teaching. The spiritual Pharisees, who were spiritually impotent because their consciousness was in their belly (3rd) energy center, recognized that Adam and the Spirit of Elijah within the man, Jesus, had reached into their spiritual side, laid hold of Christ within them, and set Christ upright in the left side of their heart (4th) energy center.

This means that every Pharisee who rejected Jesus, rejected Him knowing that Jesus was the Son of God, because Jesus elevated all of them into the left side of their heart (4th) center to receive that revelation.

Jesus rebuked the Pharisees, because they made a fully conscious choice to prefer their carnal mind over the resurrected Adam (Christ Jesus). How so? They consciously refused to subject the power and authority that they wielded over the common man in Israel, to Jesus.

I saw the movie "Ike," last night. The extent to which the French and British generals, and even Churchill at one point, challenged General Eisenhower and tried to overturn his authority, is quite amazing to me. Eisenhower is the United States general who headed up the invasion of Normandy, which was the beginning of the end of World War II.

Eisenhower was appointed commander-in-chief of the allied forces. The British government agreed, but the British and French generals resented serving under a foreign general and rebelled against that political decision.

The movie addressed three instances of this rebellion. There were two French generals. The first one actually commanded his troops to fire on allied forces that were trying to free France from Nazi troops. But the French troops fled from their own officers and surrendered to the allied forces that were invading French territory to liberate France from Hitler's occupation.

Eisenhower, a great general and a man who honored Jesus Christ, armed the French soldiers so that they could participate in the liberation of their homeland. The French general admitted that he had made a terrible mistake only after many American, British and French soldiers died.

The second French general refused to cooperate with the war effort to liberate his own homeland unless he was assured of the political position of his choice. Ike actually had to override President Roosevelt's directive to give the French general what he wanted, or the liberation of Europe might have failed.

Churchill also challenged Ike's authority, and Ike had to tell Churchill, "either I'm in charge here, or I resign." Churchill, the Prime Minister of Great Britain, backed down.

And last, but not least, the British General refused to take Ike's orders, publicly declaring that his authority was equal to Ike's. Ike threatened to demand that command headquarters replace one of them. The British general knew that the allied command would not let Ike resign, so he submitted to Ike's authority.

The whole world is faced with enslavement by a madman, the only hope of the free world is in one unified armed force, and the generals are holding up the works. Now, brethren, this is crazy.

Yet, this is human nature, brethren, fallen human nature. And the same conflict arose among the Pharisees. They refused to give up their position, even for the salvation of Israel! The Pharisees knew that Jesus was the Son of God, Messiah! They knew! But their own importance and position was more important to them than anything else. Amazing, isn't it?

Do you know that the same thing is happening today? Do you know that there are preachers out there who know that the anointed Word of God is being declared? The Lord told me a while ago that there are preachers out there who know that the Doctrine of Christ is being preached, and that the end has begun, but they refuse to submit to the teaching of another preacher.

So most of the spiritual Pharisees who were impotent because their consciousness was in their belly (3rd) energy center, followed Jesus after He raised their consciousness into the left side of their heart (4th) center. Now they didn't physically follow Jesus. They followed His teaching.

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:2, And most of the spiritually impotent [Pharisees] followed Jesus because of the miracle that they experienced [when Jesus raised their consciousness into the left side of their heart (4th) energy center],

John 6:3, And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples ( KJV).

<LivingEM> And Jesus, who had descended from the brow (6th) energy center to talk to the Pharisees that He raised into the left side of their heart (4th) center, ascended back up into the throat (5th) center (mountain), where he gathered together with His disciples.

Jesus and His disciples met in the throat (5th) center, the highest level of consciousness short of perfection. Now, brethren, I don't know where their physical bodies were, and I don't think the Scripture is too concerned it either. This is a spiritual book, so even the geophysical locations mentioned have spiritual significance.

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:3, And Jesus ascended into the throat (5th) energy center, and gathered His disciples [together with the glorified Elijah in the throat (5th) energy center],

John 6:4, Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh (KJV).

5, And when Jesus lifted up His eyes and saw a great company coming unto Him, He said unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? (KJV)

The physical Passover may very well have been near, but I believe that Verse 4 is speaking about the spiritual Passover. Why? Because Verse 5 says that "Jesus lifted up his eyes...and saw a great company come to him..."

Brethren, Jesus looked into the Spirit, He looked into the future, and saw a great throng (company) receiving Christ and choosing Christ Jesus over their carnal mind.

Revelation 7:9, After this I beheld, and lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations and kindreds and people and tongues, stood before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes and with palms in their hands.

10, And they cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God who sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb! (KJV)

<LivingEM> Brethren, this prediction has not been fulfilled yet. No, the great number that are reconciled to the Lord Jesus Christ today do not fulfill these Scriptures. This great number is speaking about "salvation," which imparts THE NATURE OF CHRIST.

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:4, Now, the [spiritual] Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near,

John 6:5, And when Jesus lifted up His eyes and saw a great company coming unto Him, He said unto Philip, "Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? (KJV)

...Then Jesus said to Phillip -- as a lesson -- to teach and quiz Phillip, How shall we teach, how shall we impart the Doctrine of Christ, how shall we graft the nature of Christ to all of these people so that Christ Jesus, the bread of heaven, can consume (eat) the Fiery Serpent, the subconscious part of their carnal mind?

<LivingEM> Those of you who are physically near to me know that I have been asking that question for a while now. Well, what's the problem, Sheila? Just send out the books that teach the Doctrine of Christ. No, brethren, the books alone, without the exposure of the sin nature and the practical teaching which is frequently not taped, inadequate.

How can a small group of overcomers possibly minister to so many disciples?

Alternate Translation, Jn.6:5, So [when] Jesus looked into the Spirit, He saw a very large crowd [of people] drawing near to Him, and [Jesus] said to Philip, How shall we supply the Doctrine of Christ [to so many, so that Christ can be formed in them and] consume [the Fiery Serpent, the subconscious part of their carnal mind]?

John 6:6, And this He said to test him, for He Himself knew what He would do (KJV).

<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "prove" can also be translated "to examine," which witnesses to what I said above, before I ever looked up this word, that Jesus was quizzing Philip.

The King James translation says "for He Himself knew what He would do," which sounds like Jesus knew the answer, but quizzed Phillip to see what Phillip would do.

No, brethren, definitely not. Remember that the word "what" can signify "Elohim." Jesus quizzed Phillip to see if Phillip knew what Elohim would do. In other words, would Phillip respond to this problem out of his Christ or his carnal mind?

Now, brethren, whether you say the right words or not, if your carnal mind is speaking, your sin nature has crucified Christ to the ground. Do you remember the Scripture where Jesus asks Peter to feed His sheep?

The Alternate Translation shows Jesus saying to Peter, after He asked him for the third time to feed His sheep, "you have a problem Peter, I have asked you the same question three times, and each time your fiery serpent has answered me. You had better get your spiritual wife under control, because she is speaking for you." "

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:6, Now Jesus said this to test [Phillip, to see] if [Philip] knew what Elohim would do.

John 6:7, Philip answered Him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little (KJV).

<LivingEM> Phillip responded with his carnal mind.

... And Phillip answered Jesus .... two hundred pennyworth of bread...

<LivingEM> The brow (6th) energy center vibrates at 100 undulations, and the number "2" signifies the morally impure 2nd energy center, where Satan is a stagnant pool of spiritual corruption.

"Pennyworth" means "penny," which signifies "10 asses." "10" is the number of the law, and can also signify the belly (3rd) energy center which vibrates at 10 undulations.

So we have the doctrine (bread) that produces lust (belly) which feeds the moral impurity generated by Satan in the 2nd energy center, manifesting with the strength of the brow (6th) energy center.

Phillip is saying,

...Satan's (not) impure doctrine (bread), brings (may take) every one of them into the brow (6th) energy center [of Leviathan's] inferior (little) [timeline, and] wards off (sufficiennt) [Christ Jesus.

<LivingEM> Phillip evaluates the situation first saying,"the Pharisees are preaching Satan's philosophy to the people (the average Jew) and this morally impure philosophy generates lust in the people, which retains them in Leviathan's timeline."

This means that the Pharisees had the spiritual strength to prevent the people from receiving the Doctrine of Christ, which imparts Jehovah's nature to the imputed power of Christ, which was already formed in them.

Is this not happening today brethren? Is there not a Satanic philosophy in the Church that prevents God's people from drawing near to the true Jesus?

2 Cor 11:4, For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him (KJV).

<LivingEM> Can anyone tell us the foundational error of Satan's philosophy?

What are today's Pharisees preaching that prevents God's people from receiving the nature of Christ, and living out of that nature?

<OVERCOMER> There is no seed of life, just the waters?

<LivingEM> Well, Overcomer, if I interpret your response, I would have to say yes, but on the surface, most would say "no, I haven't heard anyone preaching that."

I think you are talking about the doctrine that says we are all born with the Christ consciousness, and that nothing has to be added to us. Is that what you mean? Or that the Holy Spirit is all that we need?

<OVERCOMER> No, I was trying to answer the foundation of Satan.

<LivingEM> I am not sure what you mean. The two philosophies that I stated above, are doctrines that prevent people from receiving the nature of Christ, but I was looking for the name of the teaching that opposes the exposure of the sin nature.

Christ Jesus is revealed by contrast. We must see and confront our own sin nature, before we can recognize the Righteous One.

1 John 3:2, Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM; FOR WE SHALL SEE HIM AS HE IS (KJV).

<LivingEM> So Phillip evaluated the problem, but did not know how to meet the spiritual needs of the people.

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:7, And Phillip answered [Jesus, saying], the Pharisees are preaching Satan's morally impure philosophy with the spiritual authority of the brow (6th) energy center [of Leviathan's] inferior [timeline, and this philosophy] generates lust [in the people], which prevents [Christ Jesus from] seizing them.

<LivingEM> "Seizing them" is a translation of "may take."

Does anyone know why Christ Jesus does not seize the people whose consciousness is in their belly (3rd) energy center?

We prefer the lusts of Satan and Leviathan over the righteousness of Christ Jesus for so long as our consciousness is in the belly (3rd) energy center, but we must prefer Christ Jesus over Satan and Leviathan if our consciousness is to rise into the brow (6th) energy center.

John 6:8, One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said unto Him (KJV).

<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "one" can also be translated "united."

...Then Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, who was united [in mind] with Jesus said...

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:8, And then Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, [one of] the disciples [who] was united [with King Adam within Jesus, in the throat (5th) energy center] said,

John 6:9, There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? (KJV)

<LivingEM> So, Andrew, one of the disciples that was united with Christ Jesus in the throat (5th) energy center, continues to evaluate the situation, saying,

...The young Christ (lad) is in this place (here) [and the Jews] who (which) He is possessing (hath) [have become] bread (loaves), but (and) the two [timelines within the Jews], Christ Jesus, the mature grain (barley), [and] the many-membered Leviathan (fishes), [are in] the throat (5th) energy center [of their respective timelines], even though (but) Elohim (what) is among so many of them (they).

<LivingEM> Andrew is saying that Christ is formed in some, and Christ Jesus in others, and in some cases Christ Jesus is even ascended into the throat (5th) center of the righteous timeline, but Leviathan is still active, despite Elohim's presence.

Now, it is interesting to note that the Greek word translated "small fishes" means "cooked and dried" fish, but neither Strong's nor Thayer's definition says anything about this Greek word meaning "small."

So Andrew is saying, symbolically, that even though Leviathan is alive and well, despite Christ Jesus' ascension into the throat (5th) energy center in some of the Jews, Leviathan is as good as cooked, because King Adam (the resurrected Adam and the glorified Elijah) are risen in Jesus.

Now, brethren, this is the problem in the Church today. It is also my problem and, if you are honest, you know that it is your problem. Christ is formed in us, and it wouldn't surprise me in the least to find out that Christ Jesus is ascended into the throat (5th) energy center in all of us who are submitted and committed to the exposure of our sin nature.

So how come we still mess up?

How come we are not perfect?

How come we still get sick when the promised salvation is within us?

How come?

Anybody?

Christ Jesus is our weapon -- to do what?

To do what?

<LAMB> Kill our carnal mind.

<LivingEM> Yes, Lamb. That is the answer. We must slay Leviathan, the dragon in the sea.

What good is a weapon that remains unused?

What good is a Savior within us when Satan speaks and we cannot distinguish between the two voices?

How is God glorified in a life riddled with continuous, spiritual struggles between our two sides?

Brethren, our salvation is a two-edged sword. Christ Jesus enters into us and gives life, on the one hand, and kills the death within us, on the other hand.

Rev 20:14, And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death (KJV).

<LivingEM> But Christ Jesus must be above the Fiery Serpent, in the throat (5th) energy center, to cover her, marry her and reunite her with the glorified Jesus Christ, who is above.

Only the double portion, Christ Jesus (married to the earthen personality) joined to the glorified Jesus Christ, can sufficiently support the life of the personality for the Fiery Serpent to be safely cut away from Leviathan. The unified Lord Jesus, and Christ Jesus in the individual, complete the spirit and mind of the personality, which saves her from death.

So you see, it is not Christ Jesus, alone, who penetrates the Fiery Serpent. We, the female side of the personality, have a part in it too. We must reject the Fiery Serpent as our spiritual husband with the spiritual strength that we receive from Christ Jesus when He marries us.

And how do we know if we are married to Christ Jesus?

We live for Him.

He is the only one who can satisfy us.

We desire with all of your heart to please Him, and to serve Him.

Everything else is secondary.

This means that we are no longer in a relationship with the Lord for the blessings, alone.

We minister, or stand still, at His direction.

We do nothing of our own will.

His anointing begins to pour out of us.

So we see that we, the female side of the personality, must marry Christ Jesus to attain to perfection, which is sinlessness, through union with the glorified Jesus Christ, and the crucifixion of the Fiery Serpent, our own evil side.

Now, if you don't think that you have an evil side, brethren, you have a spiritual problem and are on the path that leads away from the salvation which is in Christ Jesus.

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:9, The young Christ is possessing [the people], and they [have become] bread, but the many-membered Leviathan, [is in] the throat (5th) energy center [of] the second, [counterfeit timeline within the people], even though Elohim [and] Christ Jesus, the mature grain, are among so many [of the people] in this place.

John 6:10, And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand (KJV).

<LivingEM> So both Phillip and Andrew responded to Jesus' quiz by evaluating the problem, but neither of them answered the question. Phillip condemned the Pharisees, and Andrew justified the Pharisees' failure to ascend into the left side of their heart (4th) energy center and to live out of Christ.

Both responses were out of the carnal mind, so Jesus answered His own question: "Make the men sit down... "

The Greek word translated "men" is "Adam."

...Make the Adams sit down...

<LivingEM> Brethren, if Christ is formed in you, and you are living out of Him, you are Christ. This is not blasphemy. It is the truth of your spiritual condition.

"Adam" is appearing as Christ Jesus is this present spiritual generation, which is the offspring of the glorified Jesus Christ.

Strong's # 444, the Greek word translated "man," means "the complete" or "real" man. Another Greek word is used to describe mortal man. Sometimes the Scripture calls the personality that is married to Adam/Christ Jesus, "that Elohim," or, "those Adams."

The Hebrew word translated "to sit down," can also be translated "to marry," and we have carried this meaning into our translation of the Greek New Testament. The resurrected Adam in Jesus' twelve disciples was mature enough to "marry," or "take on" disciples, so Jesus told the twelve to "marry," or "disciple," the spiritual people who could not overcome the Fiery Serpent within themselves.

Listen, either you are a Christ (Adam), or a Serpent. Didn't Jesus call the Pharisees "vipers"? Jesus was not calling the Pharisees names. He told them that they were not "Adams." Every mortal man, despite the goodness of his works, is either a Christ (Adam), or a viper. We, the female side of the personality, take the name of our spiritual husband: Christ or the Fiery Serpent (viper).

So, Jesus said to His disciples, "the answer to the problem of the Jew who cannot overcome the Fiery Serpent, his sin nature, even though Christ is formed in him, is to marry Christ Jesus in an "Adam" who has overcome Leviathan and is married to the glorified Jesus Christ."

So all you Christs reading this transcript, you will not be delivered from sickness, disease, and death, until Christ Jesus within you marries the glorified Jesus Christ. And if Christ within you is not strong enough to overcome the Fiery Serpent, your sin nature, you should leave your spiritual father and mother, marry Christ Jesus in an overcoming "Adam," and move into your husband's spiritual household.

Who are the spiritual father and mother of mortal man?

<LAMB> Satan and Leviathan.

<LivingEM> Yes, this is true. Satan is the father and Leviathan is the mother of mortal men, who are the children, or offspring, of pride.

Job 41:1, Canst thou draw out leviathan ....

34, [Who] beholdeth all high things: HE IS A KING OVER ALL THE CHILDREN OF PRIDE (KJV).

<LivingEM> Every mortal man that you have a soul tie with, including your close family members, are soul ties in Leviathan. Spirit ties in Christ are within the spiritual family, between Christ in one man, and Christ in another man.

Am I telling you to abandon your physical family? No, definitely not. But I am saying that the spiritual married woman puts Jesus first, before everything else, believing that Jesus will take care of her physical, family when He calls her elsewhere.

Physical men, as well as physical women, are spiritually female in relation to Christ Jesus. We are all the bride of Christ. Most physical men would not have a problem putting Christ first because they are already career oriented, and rarely opposed to separating from the family for a season. Physical women have a more difficult time in this area.

... Now there was much grass in the place.... (KJV)

<LivingEM> There are three Hebrew words translated "grass," signifying the three stages of the developing plant, but there is only one Greek word translated "grass," Strong's # 5528, which signifies the place where the grass grows, not the plant itself. Strong says that # 5528 means "a court," or "a garden."

Now, brethren, the heart (4th) energy center is "the garden," the place where the grass grows and, according to our studies in the Old Testament, "the grass" is Adam in three stages of development. The mature Adam, "the seed-carrying grass," is responsible to guard the immature Adams in the left side of the heart (4th) energy center, which is the Garden of Eden.

Joel 2:3, A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: THE LAND IS AS THE GARDEN OF EDEN BEFORE THEM, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them (KJV).

<LivingEM> So you thought that Mary Magdelane perceived the resurrected Jesus to be the gardener, like in "cutting the grass," do you? Not a chance, brethren. Mary Magdelane knew that Adam had been regenerated in the personality, Jesus, and recognized Adam as the gardener, or the guardian of the Garden of Eden, when she saw him. But Mary did not understand that King Adam within Jesus had absorbed the personality, Jesus, and that the two were now one spiritual man.

Eph 2:15, Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace (KJV).

<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "gardener," Strong's # 2780, means "a warden," or "a garden-keeper" (Strong's).

John 20:15, Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, SUPPOSING HIM TO BE THE GARDENER, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away (KJV).

... And [King Adam] said to Jesus, appoint (make) the Adams to marry (sit down) the many (much) who are in the garden (heart center) within themselves (place)....

... so the men ... in number about five thousand (KJV).

<LivingEM> The English word "men" appears in Verse 10 twice. The first time the Greek word is "Adam," Strong's # 444, the second time the word is a translation of Strong's # 435, which means "mortal male," signifying the "imperfect spiritual manhood" that manifests in physical females, as well as physical males.

Strong's # 435, "mortal male," signifies the personality that is spiritually male because Christ Jesus is formed in her.

Christ becomes an Adam, a "completed man," when He matures into Christ Jesus, and dominates and marries the Fiery Serpent, the male side of the personality.

Didn't Jesus say "the fields are white to harvest, but the laborers are few" (Jn. 4:35)? Christ is formed in many Christians today, but few are able, or willing, to perform the spiritual labor (Heb. 4:11) that overcomes Satan and Leviathan, so that Christ Jesus can dominate and marry their Fiery Serpent.

The Greek word translated "number," means "count," or "to accumulate." We have been interpreting this word to signify, in general, the accumulation and focusing of spiritual energy and, specifically, said accumulated energy manifesting from the brow (6th) energy center as supernatural exploits.

... So Adam/Christ Jesus within the apostles-in-training married (sat down) the mortal males, and gathered (numbered) Christ within the mortal males into the city of God.

<LivingEM> Huh? Where did you get "the city of God" from Sheila?

"Five" signifies the throat (5th) energy center, and the number "1,000" identifies the crown (7th) energy center. The spiritual "place" that lies between these two energy centers is called the New Jerusalem, the City Of God.

This means that Adam within the apostles-in-training, who was joined to Adam within Jesus in the throat (5th) energy center, who was joined to the glorified Elijah in Jesus' brow (6th) energy center, joined with Christ in the belly (3rd) energy center of the mortal males, to raise the mortal males into the left side of their heart (4th) energy center, which is under the influence of "Holy Jerusalem," the city of God.

The glorified man, the Lord Jesus in this dispensation, is in the crown (7th) energy center when Christ Jesus within the personality (earth) ascends into the throat (5th) energy center. The glorified man reaches down into the throat (5th) energy center, joins with Christ Jesus there, and raises Him into the brow (6th) energy center, where the whole "new man" enters into immortality. And the whole spiritual space between the crown (7th) and the throat (5th) energy centers, is holy ground or -- the ground becomes holy when she enters into this place.

Who is the ground?

The Fiery Serpent is the spiritual ground that becomes holy when she enters into the New Jerusalem, where she cries, "holy, holy, holy," "holy is the Lord (Is. 6:3)" continuously. Christ Jesus destroys Satan and Leviathan, but the Fiery Serpent is re-engraved with Jehovah's nature, and enters into a renewed existence as a holy Seraph.

How does the Fiery Serpent enter into the Holy City?

<LAMB> Through marriage to Christ.

<OVERCOMER> When she is married to the personality who is married to Christ Jesus?

<LivingEM> Yes, you are both correct. The Fiery Serpent, the evil side of the personality, is the spiritual husband of the female side of the personality that is not married to Christ. But when Adam/Christ Jesus marries the Fiery serpent within a disciple, the nature of the whole personality is changed into the image of the Living God.

The Greek word translated "place" means "location," and the Greek word translated "about," can be translated "and then."

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:10, Now many mortal males were in the [spiritual] garden within their [heart (4th) energy center], so [King Adam] said to Jesus, tell the Adams [the apostles-in-training] to marry [the mortal males, and] gather them into the city of God.

<LivingEM> The mortal males had overcome the Fiery Serpent in their belly (3rd) energy center and were fighting Satan from the right side of their heart (4th) energy center, so King Adam told Jesus to send the apostles-in-training to help the mortal males cross over into the left side of their heart (4th) energy center.

John 6:11 And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, He distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down; and likewise of the fishes, as much as they wanted (KJV).

<LivingEM> There are four English words in this Verse that have no Greek foundation: "disciples," "and," "the," "disciples," "them."

The Greek word translated "took," can also be translated "to seize"; the Greek word translated "loaves" can also be translated "bread," which we are interpreting as "spiritual bread," i.e., "the living Word of God," as well as "the human messenger that speaks the living Word of God."

The Greek word translated "distributed," can also be translated "divided"; the Greek word translated "to set down," can also be translated "to marry" (Hebraic usage); and the Greek word translated "likewise," can also be translated, "in the same manner."

The Greek word translated "fishes," means "cooked and salted fish," which we are interpreting as "Leviathan"; the Greek word translated "as much as," can also be translated as "great"; and the Greek word translated "they would," can also be translated "to prefer" or "to desire."

Alternate translation Jn. 6:11, And Jesus seized [the apostles-in-training, and they became] bread [when] they married [King Adam within Jesus], and [King Adam within Jesus] divided [Adam/Christ Jesus within the apostles-in-training from the Fiery Serpent and], in the same manner, when [the apostles-in-training] expressed their gratitude, [King Adam within Jesus, divided the Fiery Serpent within the apostles-in-training] from Leviathan, who they greatly desired.

<LivingEM> Why is it so important to express gratitude?

The carnal mind is not grateful that the personality is seized by Jesus. Gratitude shows that the mind of Christ is living through the personality.

The Lord never ceases to amaze me. This is the same message, The Harvest, A Spiritual View, that came forth this past Sunday.

Does anyone not understand that the Lord is preparing us for the experience that is being taught here?

Christ must be formed in you,

You must prefer Him above all else,

You must admit that you have an evil side

You must submit to the exposure of that evil side, and

You must lay aside your pride to resist her lust, and destroy her.

And when you fulfill all of these requirements, Christ Jesus in another man who is married to the glorified Jesus Christ, will seize Christ Jesus within you and strengthen Him and, if you are grateful, Christ Jesus within the other man will separate Christ Jesus within you from your Fiery Serpent, and eventually cut your Fiery Serpent away from Leviathan, whose lusts the Fiery Serpent prefers over the righteousness of the Lord Jesus.

Verse 11 does not say that, when Christ Jesus is separated from the Fiery Serpent within you, He will cover that same Fiery Serpent, and penetrate her (Gal. 6:14), and you shall enter into the city of God, which is perfection for the human spirit, and preservation for the personality. Verse 10, which talks about entering into the city of God, is out of logical order, and should be read after Verse 11.

This is what we are all waiting for, brethren. And what do you think we will be doing after we experience this "catching up"? We will go to the Church, and then the world, to help them to have the same experience.

John 6:12, When they were filled, He said unto His disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost (KJV).

<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "filled," can also be translated "to complete," and the Greek word translated "remain," can also be translated "overflowing," or "excellent."

The Scripture says that Daniel had an "excellent spirit," signifying that the Spirit of God was revealed through Daniel.

Dan 5:12, Forasmuch as an EXCELLENT SPIRIT, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.

14, I have even heard of thee, THAT THE SPIRIT OF THE GODS IS IN THEE, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee (KJV).

<LivingEM> "Spirit" is energy, and the Holy Spirit is the "excellent energy" that "overflows" from the eternal realm of God into our fallen world. The Holy Spirit is above and beyond the measure of energy that mortal men are born with, wherefore Jesus warns us that Satan is a wolf seeking to steal our "fleece" (Jn. 10:10), the "overflowing energy" from above, the promise and down payment of our inheritance in Christ Jesus.

Eph 1:14, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory (KJV).

<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "gather," can also be translated "to assemble"; the Greek word translated "fragments," can also be translated "separated"; the second Greek word translated "that," is a negative particle which we will translate "the Fiery Serpent," and the Greek word translated "lost" means "to destroy fully," or "to die."

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:12, And [after Jesus] completed [His] disciples, [Adam/Christ Jesus within the apostles-in-training] said [to the apostles-in-training], assemble [the mortal males who have my] excellent [Spirit, and] separate the Fiery Serpent [within the mortal males from Leviathan, so that the the mortal males] might die to [ the Fiery Serpent's lifestyle].

<LivingEM> The Fiery Serpent's lifestyle (not the Fiery Serpent herself) is fully destroyed when the Fiery Serpent is cut away (circumcised) from Leviathan.

The casting down of the swine from the crown (7th) or throat (5th) energy center is the separation of the Fiery Serpent from Leviathan, her husband, which marriage completes the circle of spiritual incest which occult writers depict as a serpent with its tail in its mouth (Serpent Consumes Its Own Tail).

But the unholy couple continue to be joined through their natal tie (Leviathan is the Fiery Serpent's mother), until the second stage of spiritual circumcision that separates the daughter (the Fiery Serpent) from her mother (Leviathan), and fully releases her into the hands of her true, male husband, Christ Jesus, which event is the "catching up" to perfection.

John 6:13, Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above, unto them that had eaten (KJV).

<LivingEM> A "basket" is a woven container, which suggests "union." We will interpret the word "basket," as human vessels who are "married" or "woven" together with their spiritual husband.

The Greek word translated "filled," can also be translated "completed"; the number "12," signifies the heart center, which vibrates at a rate of 12 undulations.

The Greek word translated "fragment," can also be translated "separated," signifying, for this study, Adam/Christ Jesus regenerated in a mortal man, but not yet woven together with, or still separated from, the glorified Elijah/Jesus Christ, Jehovah's household.

We are interpreting the number "5," as "the throat (5th) energy center," and "loaves" as "the disciples who speak the living Word of God," because they are married to the Lord Jesus.

"Barley," in the Scripture distinguishes between Christ Jesus married to the personality who is still married to Leviathan (wheat), and Christ Jesus married to the personality that is cast down, or separated from, Leviathan.

The Greek word translated "remained over and above," can also be translated "overflowed."

...Therefore, [the apostles-in-training] gathered together completed (filled) heart (4th) center (twelve) woven vessels (baskets) separated (fragments) throat (5th) energy center (five) bread, living Word of God (loaves) Christ Jesus [Fiery Serpent separated from Leviathan] (barley) overflowed (remained over and above) unto them that had consumed (eaten).

<LivingEM> From this point in our study, for the purpose of clarity, we will call Jesus' disciples "the apostles-in-training," and the disciples of the apostles-in-training, "the third-level disciples."

Alternate Translation, Jn. 6:13, Therefore, [Adam/Christ Jesus within the apostles-in-training] gathered [the third-level disciples] into [the left side of] their heart (4th) energy center (twelve), and [King Adam/Christ Jesus, the spiritual] barley bread [within the apostles-in-training who were divided from Leviathan], overflowed [out of the apostles-in-training, and] separated [the Fiery Serpent] from [ Leviathan, who she was joined to in] the throat (5th) energy center (five) [of the third-level disciples, and Adam/Christ Jesus within the apostles-in-training] wove together with [the Fiery Serpent within the third-level disciples, and] consumed [the Fiery Serpent within the third-level disciples, and the third-level disciples] were completed (filled).

<LivingEM> Please note that King Adam within Jesus divided, or circumcised, Adam from the Fiery Serpent within the apostles-in-training, and then divided, or circumcised, the Fiery Serpent away from Leviathan, which is the catching up to perfection. The apostles-in-training were delivered from the spiritual labor of continuously treading Satan under the authority of Christ Jesus.

But Adam/Christ Jesus within the apostles-in-training, separated the Fiery Serpent from Leviathan within the third-level disciples (Verse 12), and wove together with, or married, the Fiery Serpent within the third-level disciples, which completed them without repentance (Verse 13).

Rom 11:29, For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance (KJV).

<LivingEM> How did Adam/Christ Jesus in the apostles-in-training separate the Fiery Serpent within the third-level disciples from Leviathan?

Adam/Christ Jesus within the apostles-in-training, separated the Fiery Serpent within the third-level disciples from Leviathan, by laying across the right side of the heart (4th) energy center of the third-level disciples, to break that unholy union at the lowest point that King Adam/Christ Jesus will descend to.

Leviathan descends into the belly (3rd) energy center to marry the Fiery Serpent and, from there, the newlyweds ascend into the right side of the heart (4th) energy center, and then into the throat (5th) energy center.

The apostles-in-training were perfected, that is, enabled to live above their sin nature without labor, but the third-level disciples were married to Adam/Christ Jesus in the apostles-in-training who completed them, that is, enabled them to live above their sin nature by laboring in Christ Jesus to keep their sin nature underfoot.

Marriage to Christ Jesus, or completion, is one of the steps along the path to perfection.
