PAUL & THE VENEMOUS BEAST
(Acts 28:2-5)
<LivingEM> Praise the Lord!!! I am praising the Lord today for all of the good things He has
done in my life. He has brought many deliverances over this past two months. His mercy is indescribable.
I used to read some of the Psalms that extol the Lord, and hear David's praises, but now I experience them for myself. How wonderful to truly praise the Lord from your heart and perceive the joy that His Spirit brings!
The Lord just reminded me that at the end of last week's meeting I said we would take a look at the Scriptures concerning Paul's snake bite. I am pulling up those Scriptures.
I never cease to be amazed at the carnal mind's interpretation of the Scripture. I tell you all the time, brethren, we understand according to our state of mind.
Acts 28:2, And the barbarous people showed us no little kindness for they kindled a fire and received every one of us, because of the present rain, and because of the cold. (KJV)
<LivingEM> Now, when the King James translators sat down to translate this account, they had it in their carnal mind that Paul was a half-dead victim who, by the grace of God, was washed up on the shores of the island called Melita.
Brethren, Paul was in full stature. He was a supernatural man. There is no doubt in my mind that if a physical storm resulted in Paul's release, the storm came from within Paul.
Acts 28:2 - comments - The Greek word translated "barbarous people," merely means "foreigners," the word "no" is a negative particle and can be translated "Satan," and the Greek word translated "little," can also be translated "to be master of." "Philanthropia," the Greek word translated "kindness," signifies the highest form of mortal love, and is translated "benevolence." The Greek word translated "kindled," means "to fasten," "to attach oneself to," or "to touch," all of which suggest spiritual sexual intercourse. We will interpret the word "fire," as "the Fiery Serpent."
So we see, that [Paul] saw (shewed) that Satan (no), the master of (little) the foreigners (barbarous people), and the Fiery Serpent, were engaging in spiritual sexual intercourse (kindled) with the foreigners, [Paul] felt compassion towards them for the sake of Christ Jesus, the spiritual rain within him.
The Greek word translated 'receive" means "to take to oneself," signifying spiritual marriage, and the Greek word translated "because" can also be translated "for the sake of." The Greek word translated "present" means "to be present," or "to stand upon," and the word "rain" signifies the Spirit of Christ.
So we see that Paul took the foreign people as spiritual wives on behalf of Christ Jesus who was present within Paul, and Christ Jesus put the Fiery Serpents under Himself [stood upon them].Can anyone tell us what the spiritual significance of the word "cold" is?
<LAMB> Spiritually dead?
<OVERCOMER> Hell?
<OVERCOMER> Or outer darkness?
<LivingEM> All these answers are correct. "Cold" signifies the north, where Satan and Santa Claus hang out.
Paul had mercy on the Melitians who were subject to Satan's kingdom, because he was standing in the spiritual strength of Christ Jesus.
Alternate Translation, Acts 28:2, [And when Paul] saw [that] Satan, was the master of the foreigners, and [that] the Fiery Serpents were engaging in spiritual sexual intercourse [with them, Paul] had compassion on [the foreign people], and Christ Jesus who was present within [Paul], covered the Fiery Serpents [who were joined to Leviathan], Satan's kingdom, and took all of [the foreign people] as spiritual wives.
Acts 28:3, And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand. (KJV)
<LivingEM> Is it possible for a son of God in full stature to be cold?
<OVERCOMER> No.
<LivingEM> This is true. Brethren, Christ Jesus, when He is fully mature and gathered into the brow energy (6th) energy center, provides heat and cooling, as necessary, to the personality that He is married to.
So we see that the King James translators did not have an accurate idea of who or what Paul really was. Brethren, mortal man creates God in her own image, so should we be surprised that the carnal mind of mortal man sees Paul to be as weak as she is?
The Greek word translated "sticks" means "twig." The spiritual significance of the word "twig" is the Fiery Serpent in the individual personality. Leviathan is the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and evil, the Melitians were a branch of that tree, and the Fiery Serpents within the Melitians are the twigs of the Melitian branch.
The Greek word translated "bundle," means "populace," "throng," or "large number," and the Greek word translated "gathered" means "to twist together."
Does anyone know the spiritual significance of the term "twisted together"?
<LAMB> Union? Or marriage.
<LivingEM> Yes, but more specifically, "twisted together" signifies the new creature that comes into existence when the Fiery Serpent of the earth "weaves together" with Leviathan or Christ Jesus.
What is the name of this new creature that is formed when the Fiery Serpent is woven together with the Lord Jesus?
<LAMB> Seraphim?
<LivingEM> No, Lamb, the Seraphim is the name of the restored Fiery Serpent. The name of the whole new creature is "the sons of God."
What is the name of the new creature formed by the union of the Fiery Serpent and Leviathan? Pharaoh.
The significance of the word "twist," or "weave" is the "imparted" as opposed to the "imputed" anointing. The imparted anointing signifies a marriage that is very hard to dissolve.
So we see that Paul twisted together with the Fiery Serpents of the Melitians, and that Christ Jesus within Paul overlaid the Fiery Serpents.
How did Paul twist together with the Fiery Serpents? He talked to them, brethren. He preached the Doctrine of Christ to them, and Christ Jesus, Paul's mind, vibrated forth from Paul, twisted together with the Fiery Serpents within the Melitians, and overlaid them.
Does anyone know the name of the spiritual location Christ Jesus overlaid.
<OVERCOMER> Their heart (4th) energy center.
<LivingEM> Yes, their heart (4th) center. Which side of their heart (4th) center?
<OVERCOMER> Right?
<LivingEM> Yes, the right side. Why the heart (4th) center?
<OVERCOMER> Because this is where the Fiery Serpent ascends to join with Leviathan, and Leviathan reaches down and to grab her? It's the airport?
<LivingEM> Yes, this is true. The heart (4th) center is the point of union of the two, Leviathan and the Fiery Serpent, the place where the two become one and generate a new creature, and the point from where the new creature ascends into greater spiritual power.
Christ Jesus overlays the point of union of Leviathan and the Fiery Serpent, for the specific purpose of breaking that union. Christ Jesus attacks Pharaoh at his weakest point, not at the height of his strength.
What is the point of Pharaoh's greatest strength? The crown (7th) energy center.
And the point of his weakest strength?
<OVERCOMER> 4th, heart center?
<LivingEM> Yes, the heart (4th) center.
In Daniel, Chapter 2, the weakest part of Nebuchadnezzar's statue is the part that the Lord's missile is directed towards, the feet of the statue.
There is a spiritual idol in mortal man. The feet of the idol stand in the heart (4th) center, and the head is in the crown ( 7th) center.
Back to Acts 28:3. So Paul preached to the conscious part of the Melitians' carnal mind, and Christ Jesus within Paul overlaid the Fiery Serpents, the subconscious part of the Melitians' carnal mind, and twisted together with them, and great heat was discharged when Christ Jesus overlaid the Fiery Serpents.
Can anyone explain this great heat?
2 Pet 3:10, But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also, and the works that are therein, shall be burned up. (KJV)
<LivingEM> Brethren, an energy discharge that can be likened to nuclear fission occurred when the Primordial Serpent separated from Adam, and the Primordial Serpent utilized that energy to form the fallen worlds. But an even greater discharge of energy will occur as Christ Jesus joins with that runaway tree, a twig at a time.
Who is the runaway tree?
<OVERCOMER> Cain?
<LivingEM> There are only two trees, one is a whole tree and the other is a partial tree.
<OVERCOMER> Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.
<LivingEM> Yes, the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil ran away from the Tree of Life, and they both died.
Who is the Tree of Life?
Adam/Christ Jesus.
And who is the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil?
<OVERCOMER> Leviathan.
<LivingEM> Yes, Leviathan. And the Fiery Serpents can be twigs of either tree.
What is the difference between the Fiery Serpent that is a twig on the Tree of Life, and the Fiery Serpent that is a twig on the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil?
The Fiery Serpent is a twig on the tree of life when she is pierced by Christ Jesus.
Who is the tree of life?
<Firebanana> Jesus.
<LivingEM> The Fiery Serpent that is joined to the Tree of Life is a twig on the Tree of Life. If she is not joined to the Tree of Life, she is a twig on the Tree of the Knowledge of Good & Evil.
We are in Verse 3 of Acts 28. So Paul gathered the conscious part of the carnal mind of the Melitians into himself by preaching the Doctrine of Christ to them, and Christ Jesus within Paul overlaid the Fiery Serpents of the Melitians, and as Christ Jesus penetrated the Fiery Serpents, spiritual fusion began to take place, and great heat was given off from the joining, and the Fiery Serpent, that spiritual poisonous snake, separated.....
The Greek word translated "out of" signifies separation and can be translated "to depart."
Can anyone tell us who the Fiery Serpent departed from?
Who is the Fiery Serpent joined to as Christ Jesus penetrates her?
<OVERCOMER> Leviathan.
<LivingEM> Yes, Leviathan. Paul exhorts us to live as though we are already divorced from Leviathan, our spiritual husband, but the actual divorce, the reality of the divorce, takes place when Christ Jesus penetrates the Fiery Serpent within us from above.
Gal. 2:20, I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless, I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me. And the life which I now live, I live by the faith of the son of God. (KJV)
<LivingEM> Paul is saying that after Christ was formed in him, Christ matured into Christ Jesus, overlaid the Fiery Serpent within him, and penetrated her, which penetration separated the Fiery Serpent from Leviathan, and married her to Christ Jesus. The Fiery Serpent is the spiritual sexual part of the personality. The Fiery Serpent is the part of us that the Lord marries.
The Greek word translated "out of" means "separation," and the Greek word translated "there came" means "departure." The Fiery Serpent separated from Leviathan, and then she departed from him, and fastened onto ... "hand."
What is the spiritual significance of the word "hand"?
The hand is the part of the mind that "seizes."
<OVERCOMER> Subconscious mind.
<LivingEM> Yes, the subconscious part of the mind, whose function is to "grasp" or "seize."
<LAMB> The Fiery Serpent.
<LivingEM> So we see that when Christ Jesus within Paul overlaid the Fiery Serpents in the Melitians, great heat was exuded which caused the Fiery Serpent to separate from Leviathan, and then Christ Jesus seized (fastened) the Fiery Serpent, and she fully escaped from Leviathan.
Can anyone tell us how the Doctrine of Christ differentiates between "overlaying" the Fiery Serpent, and "seizing" or "penetrating" her?
The overlaying of the Fiery Serpent is called "love," and the penetration is called "marriage."
Can anyone tell us how Christ Jesus loves us?
Christ Jesus forms a spirit tie with us.
Jesus did not favor John over the other disciples, but had a more mature relationship with him than with the other disciples.
Why? Brethren, the only true relationships in Christ are between Christ in one person, and Christ in another person. If Christ is not formed in you, or is still very young, or if you are not living out of Him no matter how mature He is in you, you cannot "love" your brother, as the Scripture speaks of the love of God.
A mortal man that Christ is formed in can manifest the love of God towards another mortal man who does not have Christ, but this would be likened to the love of an adult for a child. For two people to love each other with the love of God, they must have a spirit tie, which means the foundation of their relationship is Christ in each of them. This condition is called "agape love." Anything short of Christ loving Christ is, at its best, "philio love," the greatest love that mortal man is capable of.
Alternate Translation, Acts 28:3, And when Paul had gathered the Fiery Serpents of the Melitian population [together with] Christ Jesus, [Paul's mind, Christ Jesus] laid on top of the Fiery Serpents [within the Melitians], and [the union of Christ Jesus and the Fiery Serpents] generated great heat [which caused the Fiery Serpent], that poisonous beast, to separate [from Leviathan], and Christ Jesus seized [the separated Fiery Serpent ], the subconscious part [of the Melitian's carnal] mind.
<LivingEM> Are there any questions before we go on with verse 4?
<Firebanana> Is the Fiery Serpent the part of you that uses faith to reach out to Christ?
<LivingEM> Mortal man is incapable of having faith in Jesus Christ. Mortal man "hopes" that faith will "come" in him, and that faith is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Only Christ in a mortal man can have faith that the Lord Jesus, who is now glorified, can deliver us from this world, which is hell and death.
For this reason, James says that we should humbly receive the grafting of the Word to us, which Word is Christ. Christ in the individual reaches out for His father, the glorified Jesus Christ, crying Abba, Father, we are here to do your will.
Acts 28:4, And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live. (KJV)
<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "hang" means to "suspend," and it is used of crucifixion.
Luke 23:39, And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, if thou be Christ, save yourself and us. (KJV)
Acts 5:30, The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you slew and hanged on a tree. (KJV)
<LivingEM> Why do you think the Scripture says "hanged on a tree" instead of "crucified"? I have told you many times, brethren, that when the Scripture expresses the same principle in two different ways, there is a subtle difference which usually distinguishes the natural from the spiritual aspect of the word.
The only Scriptural reference to Paul being crucified is the spiritual crucifixion to Christ Jesus that imparts life.
Gal 2:20, I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. (KJV)
<LivingEM> Paul was "offered up," whatever form of execution that means, but the Scripture says nothing about Paul being physically crucified. Jesus was physically crucified, so in His case, the Scripture uses two different Greek words to distinguish between spiritual and physical crucifixion.
The Interlinear text of Acts 5:30 indicates that the Fiery Serpent, the subconscious part of the Pharisees' carnal mind, spiritually crucified the man, Jesus. The Pharisees did the same thing to the man, Jesus, that Paul did to the Melitians, but Paul's act was righteous and the Pharisees' act was sin. Paul's penetration of the Fiery Serpent within the Pharisees imparted life to the Melitians, but the Pharisees' penetration of the resurrected Adam within the man, Jesus, killed the resurrected Adam.
The Pharisees could not penetrate Jesus with their Doctrine, so they laid violent hands (slew) upon him. The Fiery Serpents, the spiritual hands of the Pharisees, penetrated the mortal man Jesus and crucified the resurrected Adam within him. The man, Jesus, who said "no man can take my life," (Jn. 10:17-18) died spiritually when the resurrected Adam, His life, (Jn. 14:6) was crucified by the Fiery Serpent within the Pharisees. And this is how the Pharisees "laid violent hands on Jesus."
So we see that both the resurrected Adam, and the man, Jesus, were crucified, Adam spiritually, and the man, Jesus, physically, but that the Spirit of Elijah raised up both Adam and Jesus into one new living creature, the spiritual man, Christ Jesus. Christ Jesus is the personality of the mortal man, Jesus, married to Adam, who was resurrected within Him.
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> How could Jesus die spiritually, Sheila?
Alternate Translation, Acts 5:30, [The Fiery Serpents within you, the subconscious part of your carnal mind], laid violent spiritual hands upon [Adam] the Tree of Life [that Jesus was crucified to], but the God of our fathers raised Jesus from the dead.
<LivingEM> I've been preaching for years that the resurrected Adam within Jesus had to separate from the Spirit of Elijah for Jesus to physically die, and that Jesus hanging on the cross said, "Father, I am ready to physically die, so forsake me, separate from me, so that this physical body might die."
I have also preached that when Jesus said, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani," and some that heard said, "he calls for Elijah," Jesus was indeed calling out to Elijah, but He was not saying "why have you forsaken me." Jesus was saying "forsake Adam in this physical body, so that I might die."
Matt 27:46, And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? (KJV)
<LivingEM> Elijah released the resurrected Adam within Jesus, Leviathan covered Adam and the Fiery Serpent within Jesus penetrated Adam from underneath. But, Acts 5:30 says, "the God of our fathers raised up Jesus."
Who are the fathers of the Jews?
<OVERCOMER> The Old Testament Prophets?
<Firebanana> Was it Abraham and Jacob? etc.?
<LivingEM> Yes, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Who is the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob?
<Firebanana> Jehovah.
<Myprecous1> Jehovah.
<OVERCOMER> Jehovah and Elohim.
<LivingEM> Yes, Jehovah is the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob.
And who was Jehovah manifesting Himself as to Jesus?
<OVERCOMER> Elijah.
<Myprecous1> Elijah.
<LivingEM> Yes, Elijah. But, remember, Jehovah speaks to men in the flesh only through a mediator.
Who mediated between the Jehovah and the man, Jesus?
The resurrected Adam within the man, Jesus, mediated between Jehovah and the man Jesus.
So we see that Elijah's union with the resurrected Adam within the man, Jesus, made the man, Jesus, God, and that Elijah's departure from the man, Jesus, subjected Jesus to death.
But why didn't the resurrected Adam, the mediator within the man, Jesus, keep Jesus alive, Sheila? Can Christ really die? My answer to this question appears on our Question & Answer Web Page:
Dear Sister Sheila,
Hi, how are you?
I was just reading the Serpent's Triangle #2, Page 58-59. I have a problem with the part where you talk about "seducing Christ, the young spiritual bird to sin".
Q. Is it possible for Christ to sin?
A. It is not possible for the glorified Lord Jesus to sin, but Christ in the individual can sin. Remember that the developing Christ can be likened to Abel, and Christ Jesus in the individual can be likened to Adam, who sinned and died because of his sin.
Q. Does Christ, no matter how immature, have a sin nature?
A. The personality that Christ is joined to, his wife, is His sin nature. Christ is responsible for everything His wife, the personality He is joined to, does.
Q. I thought it was more of Christ being covered over giving room for the carnal mind to manifest. Please clarify.
A. It is sin for the young Christ, or the mature Christ Jesus, to fall under His carnal mind. This is what killed Adam, and when Adam died, the woman who tempted him died also. That's how humanity got into this mess that we are in, in the first place. What mess? Hell and corruption, and an endless cycle of births and deaths.
This is what the Scripture is talking about when it says that "Christ dieth no more." (Rom. 6:9) When Christ in the individual is FULLY roused from the dead, He will no longer be subject to the endless cycle of births and deaths that He is now subject to.
Why?
Because the fully resurrected Christ in the individual joins with, or marries, the glorified Jesus Christ who cannot die (Rom. 6:10, Heb. 10:10). And the personality that is married to Christ, the manchild within herself, enters into eternal life with her husband.
Thank you for this excellent question.
But we also see that the Spirit of Elijah, the one who made the man Jesus God by resurrecting Adam within Him, and then subjected Him to death, also raised Jesus up again, hallelujah! and made Him a prince and Savior for the purpose of granting repentance to Israel, so that they might receive forgiveness for their sins.
Acts 5:31, Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sin. (KJV)
<LivingEM> The word "prince" signifies authority on the spiritual plane, while "king" signifies authority in the earth. The glorified Jesus Christ is Prince, and Christ Jesus in the individual is King.
Brethren, Leviathan was trying to lay across Jesus' heart (4th) center, attempting to separate Adam from Elijah, throughout Jesus' whole ministry, but failed completely until Elijah agreed to separate from Adam within Jesus, at which point the Fiery Serpent within Jesus departed from the resurrected Adam and returned to Leviathan.
So we see that the spiritual significance of the Greek word translated "hang" in Acts 28:4 is "spiritual union," or "spiritual crucifixion."
Acts 28:4, And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.(KJV)
<LivingEM> I have been talking about the Melitians, but the Scripture says "foreigner," (barbarians), and identifies only the island as Melita.
Does anyone know why?
<Myprecous1> They were spiritual Philistines
<LivingEM> Yes, Myprecous, that is the right answer. We see the same principle here that we discovered in Samson & Delilah. Does anyone remember from our study in Samson & Delilah, who the spiritual Philistines, or the spiritual immigrants, are?
"Foreigners," or "barbarians" (venomous beast) signifies the Fiery Serpents, Jehovah's fallen seed which were captured by the Primordial Serpent, covered with the spiritual earth, and engraved with the Primordial Serpent's nature.
Several symbols signify the Fiery Serpent, each one representing one aspect of her role in the creation. The Fiery Serpent is the spiritual sexual part of the personality, her relationship to mortal man; the spiritual ground, her position in the etheric plane; a twig, her relationship to the spiritual Trees; the beast of the Book of Revelation, her relationship to Christ Jesus; and foreigner, or spiritual immigrant, signifying the Fiery Serpent's departure from Elohim and her potential for restoration to the world above (Jn. 3:13), and also her relationship to the "good side"of the personality.
The Fiery Serpent, Jehovah's seed who was overwritten with the Primordial Serpent's nature, is male to the personality in mortal man. The Fiery Serpent and the personality are one "whole spiritual woman," and the Fiery Serpent is the woman's evil potential, the role that the Primordial Serpent played in the Garden,
Acts 28:4, And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.(KJV)
<LivingEM> The Greek word translated "no doubt" is a negative particle, which we will translate "Satan." So when Satan saw that the Fiery Serpents were separated from Leviathan (hanging suspended), the mortal foundation of her dark kingdom, and fastened to Christ Jesus, Paul's spiritual hand, Satan sent forth her thoughts among the personality/woman part of the Fiery Serpents, saying, "this man, Christ Jesus, is a murderer."
Satan seeks to influence the personality/woman, because the spiritual male that the personality/woman prefers, receives the strength to overthrow the other contending male.
The Greek word translated "man" is Strong's #444, which signifies Adam, who is appearing in this generation as Christ Jesus. Satan is suggesting to the personalities/women that they should prefer Leviathan, because Adam/Christ Jesus is a murderer.
Jn. 8:44 , Ye are of your father, the Devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do, He was a murderer from the beginning ...(KJV)
<LivingEM> Satan is calling Adam/Christ Jesus a murderer. What is the name of the sin that accuses the innocent party of one's own guilt?
<Firebanana> Lying
<LivingEM> Yes, Firebanana, this is true, but "malignant pride" is the term we have been using here. Malignant pride is a form of lying that pronounces the innocent party guilty, and the guilty party innocent. Malignant pride is character assassination, a form of murder, which behavior is Satanic at its root. There is nothing new under the sun.
Every sin that passes through our mind and speaks from our mouth arises out of our father, the Devil (Jn. 8:44). But praise be to God, we have a Father in heaven, and those who cry "Abba, Father," will surely be rescued by Him in due season, if....
If what?
<OVERCOMER> We look at the specific and hidden sins of our heart.
<LivingEM> Yes, Overcomer, this is true, but what I had in mind is, if we don't give in to Satan's harassment, and faint (Gal. 6:9).
So Satan saw that Christ Jesus within Paul had crucified the Fiery Serpents within the Malitians, and immediately attacked Paul, saying, this man [who is an expression of Adam/Christ Jesus], has escaped from the sea ...
Can anyone think of a spiritual understanding of the phrase, to escape from the sea"? Who is the sea?
<LAMB> Satan.
<LivingEM> Yes, Satan signifies the spiritual sea.
Where is the spiritual sea located?
<Firebanana> Astral Plane?
<OVERCOMER> Unconscious mind.
<LivingEM> Yes, Satan's spiritual sea is the astral plane, but how do we identify her location?
Satan's sea covers the right side of the heart (4th) center and the energy centers underneath the earth. Can anyone name the energy centers underneath the earth?
<Myprecous1> Right side of the heart (4th) energy center.
<LivingEM> The right side of the heart (4th) center is not under the earth, the heart (4th) center is the spiritual earth.
Someone should know the answer to this one. What energy centers are under the earth? What are the names of the lowest energy centers?
<Firebanana> Root, sacral, and solar plexus
<LivingEM> What is the name of the 3rd energy center?
<Firebanana> Solar plexus.
<OVERCOMER> Belly.
<Psalm292> The navel.
<LAMB> Belly.
<LivingEM> Yes, that's true, Firebanana.
Some times our terms vary from other philosophies, but that doesn't matter. We have been calling the 3rd energy center the belly, and the first energy center, the root, but I have not yet found the Scriptural name for the 2nd energy center. All I know is that the 2nd energy center is the place of moral impurity.
So, we see that Satan's sea covers the right side of the heart (4th) center, and the centers under the heart center, and that the left side of the heart (4th) center is beyond Satan's grasp.
Well, if the right side of the heart (4th) center is under the sea, how shall we describe the left side of the heart (4th) center?
<LAMB> Desert.
<Myprecous1> Adam, the Tree of Life.
<Firebanana> Land or air.
<LivingEM> Yes, dry land, or the desert, is correct.
And who inhabits the left side of the heart (4th) center?
<OVERCOMER> Adam.
<Psalm292> Christ Jesus.
<Myprecous1> Adam
<Firebanana> Jesus in the Christian.
<LivingEM> That's true Firebanana. you are doing great.
Yes, Adam/Christ Jesus is the spiritual man that occupies the left side of the heart (4th) center.
<LivingEM> What name signifies the mortal personality that occupies the left side of the heart (4th) center?
<OVERCOMER> Abel.
<LivingEM> Abel is not a personality, Overcomer, he is the seed of Jehovah's life.
<Psalm292> Leviathan.
<LivingEM> Leviathan is not a personality, Psalm, she is a sea Serpent.
<Firebanana> Is it self?
<LivingEM> The personality that Christ Jesus is formed in abides in the left side of the heart (4th), and is signified by a camel.
Does anyone remember why a camel signifies the personality on the left side of the heart center?
<Myprecous1> Because it can go a long time without water.
<Firebanana> It's hard for the camel to go through the "eye of the needle" or a person to go into the Kingdom of God.
<LivingEM> The personality on the left side of the heart center fasts from Satan's waters, goes for long periods of time without an outpouring of spiritual energy (the Holy Spirit/Spirit of Christ), and is sustained by Christ Jesus, the oil, or spiritual fat (hump in the physical camel).
Can anyone name the occupants of the right side of the heart (4th) center?
<Psalm292> Satan & Leviathan.
<Firebanana> And his troops.
<LivingEM> Yes, Psalm, Satan is the sea, and Leviathan is the sea Serpent.
Does anyone know the name of the personality that dwells in the right side of the heart (4th) center?
<Firebanana> Self?
<LAMB> Goat/jackass.
<LivingEM> Yes, Lamb, The personality that abides in the right side of the heart (4th) center is signified by a Jackass.
<LivingEM> Who does the goat signify?
<Myprecous1> Satan.
<LAMB> Satan.
<Psalm292> Carnal mind w/o Christ Jesus.
<OVERCOMER> Satan.
<Firebanana> The person who claims to be a Christian but is not really saved.
<LivingEM> Leviathan appears as a goat when she penetrates into the left side of the heart (4th) center (Dan. 8:4-5).
What animal other than the camel occupies the left side of the heart (4th) center?
<Firebanana> Serpent.
<Myprecous1> Ox.
<LivingEM> The ram occupies the left side of the heart (4th) center, and he is the symbol of?
The ram is the symbol of?
<Psalm292> Christ
<Firebanana> Jesus Adam/Christ Jesus.
<LivingEM> Okay, that was fun. Let's finish up Verse 4.
Acts 28:4, And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live. (KJV)
<LivingEM> So Satan saw the Fiery Serpents crucified to Christ Jesus and said to the personalities of Melita, this Adam [within Paul] is a murderer who has escaped from the authority of Satan, the spiritual sea, and now he has set himself up as a judge (vengeance) who decides whether or not you will live or be left alone (suffereth).
Now doesn't this sound just like our study in Samson & Delilah, where Satan whispered into the ears of the mortal men of Judah to overthrow Samson? Satan is suggesting to the Malitians that the motives of Christ Jesus within Paul were evil, and that Christ Jesus intended to kill the Fiery Serpents, which would result in the death of the whole personality/woman.
Alternate Translation, Acts 28:4, [And when] Satan saw that the Fiery Serpents were separated from Leviathan, [the mortal foundation of her dark kingdom, and fastened to Christ Jesus], the subconscious part of [Paul's] mind, Satan whispered [her thoughts] towards [the personalities/wives of] the Fiery Serpents, saying, this man, [Christ Jesus], is a murderer [who] has escaped [from the authority of Satan, the spiritual] sea, and [has set himself up as] the judge who decides whether or not you will live, or be left alone.
Acts 28:5, And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm. (KJV)
<LivingEM> But the personalities/women shook off the Fiery Serpents, their spiritual husbands, into [Christ Jesus], the Lake of Fire ...
But I thought you said Satan was whispering, Sheila? You really confuse me sometimes.
Satan creates the thoughts which vibrate towards the Fiery Serpent, the subconscious part of the mind, the Fiery Serpent delivers Satan's message to the conscious part of the carnal mind, and the personality says, "wow, I just had an idea....."
All thoughts originate either from Satan, who is good and evil, or from the Spirit of Christ. The personalities rejected Satan's thoughts and agreed [with the Spirit of Christ within Paul], that the Fiery Serpents, their spiritual sexual part, should be joined to Christ Jesus, the Lake of Fire.
The Greek word translated "felt," can also be translated "vex." Does anyone know the spiritual significance of the verb "to vex"?
Who is to be vexed? Does anyone know what "vex" means?
<Psalm292> Curse.
<Myprecous1> To torment.
<Firebanana> Troubled in spirit.
<LivingEM> This is all true, but "vex" also means "to drive to the bottom."
Who is being tormented, troubled, cursed, and driven to the bottom?
<Psalm292> Satan.
Rev. 20:1, And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand,
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old Serpent, which is the Devil and Satan and bound him a thousand years, Verse 3, and cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him. (KJV)
<LivingEM> Who is the Devil?
The personality in full agreement with Satan and Leviathan.
"Repentance" means "a change of mind." We, the personality, must withdraw from the thoughts of the carnal mind, and join with the thoughts of Christ Jesus, in order to be saved.
So we see that the personalities of the Malitians agreed with the Spirit of Christ within Paul, that the Fiery Serpents, their spiritual husbands, should be cast into the Lake of Fire through union with Christ Jesus, and Christ Jesus within Paul drove the injurious Satan down under His authority.
The word "harm," means "depraved" or "injurious."
The Greek word translated "no" is a negative particle, which we will translate Satan, ... and they drove Satan, that injurious one, down into the lower energy centers.
Alternate Translation, Acts 28:5, [And the personalities of the Malitians] shook off the Fiery Serpents, their spiritual husbands, into [Christ Jesus, the Lake of] Fire, [and Christ Jesus within Paul] drove the injurious Satan down under His authority.
Does anyone know which underground energy center Satan abides in? Which energy center contains the underground pool?
<Psalm292> 3rd?
<Firebanana> Root.
<Myprecous1> Root.
<LivingEM> The Scriptures indicate the 2nd energy center.
The Fiery Serpent sleeps in the root energy (1st) center. She is awake in the second energy center, but her activities are curtailed there when Adam/Christ Jesus occupies the whole heart (4th) center, from where the fires of His Spirit purifies the lower energy centers continually.
Heb 12:29, For our God is a consuming fire. (KJV)
<LivingEM> This is the truth of the doctrine of eternal judgment (Heb. 6:2). Adam/Christ Jesus executes continuous (eternal) punishment upon Satan from his position in the heart (4th) center. The flames of the Spirit of fiery Judgment boil Satan's sea continuously, to prevent her from declining into a liquid sea which can dissolve the spiritual earth and change its form.
Glory to God! We thank you Father, for this excellent teaching. We thank you for your Spirt and the renewed life that you have given us. We ask you to help us to be formed more and more in your image by exposing the hidden sins of our heart, and to correct all wrong behavior. Help us to love one another, and to be longsuffering in our spiritual labor of putting Satan under foot. Help us to be a glory unto you Name, Lord, even an accurate representation of the nature of the Lord Jesus.
God bless you all.
Good night.
