The corn was not enough, so they will mix their own homegrown corn with the imported corn to feed the country. The homegrown corn and the artificially made corn looked alike. You couldn't tell any difference. They even tasted alike. &nbsp;One day, a man asked one of the engineers : How do you tell which corn is artificially made and which corn is homegrown, since they both look alike, taste alike, and have a similar smell? The engineer answered, "There is no way to tell unless you plant or bury them in the ground." The engineer continue that the artificial ones will not grow. Only the homegrown, organic ones will grow. That's how you tell the difference<br>If God, who made corn, provided after life for corn, how much more for man, who He made in His image?<br>Two people may come out of the same womb. Act alike, talk alike, go to school alike, but they will have a different afterlife based on their decision on the blood of God, the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, and His work of redemption on the cross. There is an afterlife unto eternal life and an afterlife unto damnation. The destination is based on our faith, our light of faith.<br><br>Life on Earth is only a shadow of the life to come. The resurrection of the Lamb of God, the blood of God, Jesus Christ confirms an afterlife.<br><br>In the book of Matthew of the New Testament , chapter 27, verses 51 and 52, the veil of the temple rent from top to bottom after the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The graves were opened and many bodies of the saints arose and came out of the graves after his resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared unto many. This confirms an afterlife. TheJewish Tanakh, In the book of Deuteronomy, Moses died and was buried in the land of Moab in Beth-Peor before the children of Israel could enter into the promised land. About 800 years later, in Matthew chapter 17, we see Moses standing on the mount of transfiguration with Jesus Christ, speaking with Jesus Christ. This confirms life after death of the physical body. After we are freed from the blood and the body provided by the First Adam.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 6:1-3 "There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men: [2] A man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease. [3] If a man beget an hundred children, and live many years, so that the days of his years be many, and his soul be not filled with good, and also that he have no burial; I say, that an untimely birth is better than he."<br><br>&nbsp;The only burial worthy is to be buried in Christ, to be buried in the blood of the second Adam. If a man or woman is buried in the blood of the first Adam, then an untimely birth is even better. They would be better if they were not born at all.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 6:4-6 "For he cometh in with vanity, and departeth in darkness, and his name shall be covered with darkness. [5] Moreover he hath not seen the sun, nor known any thing: this hath more rest than the other. [6] Yea, though he live a thousand years twice told, yet hath he seen no good: do not all go to one place?"<br><br>All men and women go to one of two places:<br>1. An afterlife of eternal life with the Creator<br>2. An afterlife of separation from the Creator into damnation<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 6:7-8 "All the labour of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled. [8] For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk before the living?"<br><br>&nbsp;The wise is the individual who lives with afterlife in view. They have removed their life out of the blood of the first Adam and placed it in the blood of the second Adam by faith. The fool is the individual who remains in the blood of Adam through unbelief in the blood of the second Adam.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 6:9-12 "Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desire: this is also vanity and vexation of spirit. [10] That which hath been is named already, and it is known that it is man: neither may he contend with him that is mightier than he. [11] Seeing there be many things that increase vanity, what is man the better? [12] For who knoweth what is good for man in this life, all the days of his vain life which he spendeth as a shadow? for who can tell a man what shall be after him under the sun?"<br><br>David said, "When I walked through the valley of the shadow of death. Death is only a shadow. It's not permanent. There is life after we are freed of this body through physical death.<br><br>Live with afterlife in view. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the blood of God as we revealed Him from the first Adam. After life of eternity with the Creator, is in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Naked Shall We Return To Dust”<br><br>Reference: Ecclesiastes Chapter 5<br><br>This is a sobering thought. We started in the womb as a speck of blood, came out of the womb naked, and this speck of blood is destined to return to dust, naked.<br><br>But there is another speck of blood that God sent. Through the Holy Spirit moving on Virgin Mary, this speck of blood became a man, and this blood was shed on a cross for the whole world to be clothed by this blood. To be clothed in his righteousness, to be clothed in his white robe. This is the answer to life's biggest question: is there an afterlife?<br><br>We know there is an afterlife because Jesus Christ, the blood of God, the second Adam, rose from the dead to show the whole world there is an afterlife.<br><br>Labor not into the wind, but labor to be clothed in the blood of the second Adam.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 5:1-15 "Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil. [2] Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. [3] For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words. [4] When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed. [5] Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay. [6] Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands? [7] For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear thou God. [8] If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they. [9] Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served by the field. [10] He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity. [11] When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: and what good is there to the owners thereof, saving the beholding of them with their eyes? [12] The sleep of a labouring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep. [13] There is a sore evil which I have seen under the sun, namely, riches kept for the owners thereof to their hurt. [14] But those riches perish by evil travail: and he begetteth a son, and there is nothing in his hand. [15] As he came forth of his mother's womb, naked shall he return to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand."<br><br>None of our labor will come with us into the grave. The body goes to dust. The only thing we bring with us is our faith. If our light of faith is turned off, it is total darkness. If our light of faith is turned on and placed in the blood of the second Adam, then it's a labor of endurance , a labor into eternal life.<br><br>Labour not for the things of this world.<br><br>John 6:27 "Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed."<br><br>We labor for his blood and his meat that was served on the cross of Calvary by placing our light of faith exclusively in it. In death, burial, resurrection, ascension, and now in us, in the person of the Holy Spirit. In oneness: oneness in blood, in spirit, in light, oneness in word.<br><br>The call is to come unto Him, and be one with Him.<br><br>Matthew 11:28 "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."<br><br>Any other laboring is simply laboring into &nbsp;the wind.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 5:16 "And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the wind?"<br><br>&nbsp;Laboring for the wind is life in the blood of the first Adam. It's a labor in vain.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 5:17-20 "All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness. [18] Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion. [19] Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God. [20] For he shall not much remember the days of his life; because God answereth him in the joy of his heart."<br><br>&nbsp;The gift of God is not in meat, riches, and accomplishments. The gift of God is the blood of God shed for the whole world to escape the blood of the first Adam. To be clothed in the righteousness of the second Adam.<br><br>Labor to enter into the blood of the second Adam. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam as we revealed him from the first Adam. There is only one labor worthy: it's to labor to enter in Christ!<br><br><br><br><br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

The policeman has power or authority to stop the vehicles on the road.<br><br>In physics, power is the product of force and velocity.. Work is force used over distance, and power is the rate at which work is done.<br><br>There is manpower, which is the work output of a man or woman. There is also horsepower, which is the work output of a horse. The horse was the means of travel in the early days of creation, &nbsp;and then when civilization came, they went from horse to steam engine. Today we have automobiles, cruise ships, airplanes, and even rockets. Those are all physical powers, but we also have spiritual powers.<br><br>There are three main spiritual powers:<br>1. The power of Satan<br>2. The power of faith in the blood of the second Adam<br>3. The power of God<br><br>&nbsp;The power of Satan is through unbelief. Before Satan came into the garden of Eden, there was perfection. There was God and his children. The moment Satan came in, he sowed Eve with unbelief, and that unbelief affected Adam. They lost their faith in the word of God, and that unbelief led to sin. Sin led to disease, and disease led to death. It was through unbelief that Satan was able to get the first Adam to break his covenant with God. This is the cause of all death in man and woman. This is the power of Satan. No matter what a man or woman does, their physical body going to die. That's how powerful Satan is. At the time of Noah, the whole world drowned in a flood because of unbelief. It was only Noah and his family that escaped the flood. Everybody in the world at that time drowned and went to hell. This is the power of Satan, because he blinded them with unbelief.<br>The only thing more powerful than Satan is the opposite of unbelief, which is faith. In the word of God, faith in the blood of the second Adam. Just as unbelief leads to sin, and sin leads to disease, and disease leads to death, faith in the blood of the second Adam brings resurrection. That means:<br>- faith in the blood of the second Adam is more powerful than unbelief.<br>- faith in the blood of the second Adam is more powerful than sin.<br>- faith in the blood of a second Adam is more powerful than disease<br>- faith in the blood of the second Adam is more powerful than death<br>- faith in the blood of a second Adam is more powerful than Satan<br>&nbsp;<br>Then there is the power of God. God is all-power, almighty. He is the one that tells the sun to rise and to go to bed at night. He is the one that spoke the universe into being. He is the one that tells the ocean you can only come this far onto the land and cannot come any further. The power of God is in His Word, and when a man or woman places their faith in the Word of God, they become one with the power of God.<br><br>The writer of Ecclesiastes talks about power.<br><br>Let's read.<br><br>Ecclesiastes 4:1 "So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter."<br><br>Satan is the main oppressor of man. He has power, but he is not all power. Man's power over Satan is through faith in the blood of the second Adam. This is how the sick get well, and the hopeless receive hope. The oppressed is oppressed no more because he or she has received the answer to Satan the oppressor.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 4:2-12 "Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living which are yet alive. [3] Yea, better is he than both they, which hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun. [4] Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbour. This is also vanity and vexation of spirit. [5] The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh. [6] Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit. [7] Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun. [8] There is one alone, and there is not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet is there no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither saith he, For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This is also vanity, yea, it is a sore travail. [9] Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. [10] For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. [11] Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? [12] And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken."<br><br>A man or woman is powerful when they yoke themselves to God through His Word. God is His Word. When we believe the Word of God, we become one with God, one in Word. This is the source of all Spiritual. power. The Word of God is what created the whole universe. When we are one with God, His Word will create for us things that we cannot even imagine.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 4:13-16 "Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished. [14] For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom becometh poor. [15] I considered all the living which walk under the sun, with the second child that shall stand up in his stead. [16] There is no end of all the people, even of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and vexation of spirit."<br><br>Unbeliefs make an individual powerless. They remain in the blood of the fallen Adam all their life. In the end, it is resurrection into damnation.<br><br>Faith in the blood of the second Adam makes the individual powerful. They become one with God through the blood of the second Adam. They have power even over death. That's why the second Adam said, "I am their resurrection and their life. He that believes in me shall never die." A man or woman who has placed their faith in the blood of the second Adam has passed from death unto eternal life. They have received power over all things, including the ultimate curse, which is death.<br><br>Receive the power of God. Believe and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. God is all power, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

He could only come back into the garden through a new blood covenant.<br>Every child that will be born in the bloodline of the first Adam will have to be born again through the new blood covenant. This is their only means of coming back to God.<br>To be born again is the second birth, to be born out of the bloodline of the first Adam into the bloodline of the second Adam.<br>No man or woman returns to God in the condition of the first Adam. They return to God in a new condition, in the condition of the second Adam. They must be born again. You must be born again. I must be born again.<br><br>Let's read.<br><br>Ecclesiastes 3:1-11 "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: [2] A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; [3] A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; [4] A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; [5] A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; [6] A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; [7] A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; [8] A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. [9] What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth? [10] I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. [11] He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end."<br><br>Eternity is set in the heart of man and woman because the spirit of men and women does not die. The new birth or being born again is the removal of the spiritual light that makes the man or woman, out of the blood seed of fallen Adam, into the blood of the new Adam. This is done by the man or woman turning on their spiritual light by faith, and placing that faith in the blood sacrifice of the new Adam. By this action, they enter into the new covenant, provided by God through the new blood, the blood of the second Adam, the blood of Jesus Christ.<br><br>We continue our reading.<br>Ecclesiastes 3:12-17 "I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life. [13] And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God. [14] I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him. [15] That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past. [16] And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there. [17] I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work."<br><br>A time to be born, a time to be born again, and a time to be judged . The judgment is based solely on the bloodline, whether we remain in the bloodline of the first Adam through unbelief, or we have escaped and entered the bloodline of the new Adam through faith.<br><br>We conclude our reading.<br><br>Ecclesiastes 3:18-22 "I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. [19] For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. [20] All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again. [21] Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth? [22] Wherefore I perceive that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that is his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?"<br><br>Life begins after death. For the one who remains in the blood of the first Adam is a life of torment. For the one who escapes the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam is eternal life of peace with the Creator. This place on earth is only a time for the sons and daughters of the first Adam to return to God as sons and daughters of the second Adam, through the God's new blood covenant.<br><br>Enter into God's new blood covenant by simple faith. BELIEVE, and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. A time to be born and a time to be born again, in Christ!<br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

"<br><br>Reference: Ecclesiastes Chapter 2<br><br>I was reading a quote from a friend, an old classmate. He was saying that death happens to all people, and because death is the end, we should enjoy all the things of this earth. We should have much pleasure now because once we die, there is nothing more. I was wondering if this classmate of mine had any knowledge of what God has in store for those who love Him, those who have been removed from the blood of the fallen Adam into the blood of the new Adam, those who have been removed from the broken covenant of the first Adam into the new covenant of the last Adam.<br><br>No, death is not the end. Death of the physical body is the beginning of life for those who have taken their light out of the blood of falkenAdam into the blood of the new Adam, out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam. The same death is torment for those who remain in the blood of fallen Adam. The flood that drowned the whole world at the time of Noah was the same flood that sailed Noah's boat to safety. Death for the believer is freedom, freedom from this mortal coil, this mortal body, to put on immortality. Death for the unbeliever is torture, is nightmare, is hell. Death of the physical body is not the end. It's actually the beginning.<br><br>There is a birth, a life, a death, and a resurrection.<br><br>Let's take, for instance, a tomato. A green tomato is born on the mother plant, and you and I go and we cut that tomato off the mother plant. We cut it with scissors. Just like when a child is born, the midwife or the OB-GYN cuts the cord, cuts the umbilical cord of the mother.In a few days, that green tomato will go from green to yellow and to red. This is called life. What is making the tomato go from green to yellow to red is life in it. &nbsp;This is the word of God in his creation. It is life. This is the life that non-living things, such as a robot, don't have. A robot remains the same. It does not grow.<br>So the tomato progresses from green to yellow to red and then begins to decay. Just like when we are born in the maternity ward, we are brought home and we begin to grow from a baby to an infant, a toddler to a teenager to an adult. You ultimately become weak and start to die. After the tomato decays or dies and is buried, a few weeks later the tomato resurrects, comes back as the same tomato that was put down, in a whole new body. This is exactly what happens to a man or woman after death.<br>There is a birth, a life, a death, a burial, and a resurrection.<br>Let's take the sunlight, for instance. The sun is born in the morning, just like we are born in the maternity ward. By 9 a.m., the sunlight begins to get strong, just like by 9 years old we are getting strong. By 12 p.m., the sunlight is at its peak, just like at 25 years old we are at our peak. By 3 p.m., the sunlight begins to get weak, just like by 50-60 years old we begin to get weak. By 8 p.m., the sunlight is dead and buried, just like by 110 years old we are dead and buried. By the next morning, the sunlight comes right back up in a resurrection. Likewise, when we are dead and buried, we come right back up in a resurrection into eternal life or into damnation.<br><br>Death is only the beginning of the two pathways:<br>1. The pathway of eternal life<br>2. The pathway of damnation<br><br><br>depending on which Adam we choose with our faith on this side of life.<br>A man said, "The wise dies and the fool dies. What is the difference? " There is a vast difference. The wise dies in the blood of God, the blood of the last Adam, and the fool dies in the blood of the last Adam. The difference is their destinations.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 2:1-14 "I said in mine heart, Go to now, I will prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and, behold, this also is vanity. [2] I said of laughter, It is mad: and of mirth, What doeth it? [3] I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life. [4] I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards: [5] I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits: [6] I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees: [7] I got me servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me: [8] I gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces: I gat me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, as musical instruments, and that of all sorts. [9] So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me. [10] And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was my portion of all my labour. [11] Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun. [12] And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the man do that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done. [13] Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness. [14] The wise man's eyes are in his head; but the fool walketh in darkness: and I myself perceived also that one event happeneth to them all."<br><br>&nbsp;Yes, one event happened to all men and women, and that one event is death. Many, with their limited understanding of death, consider this earth to be the place to have all the pleasures because the end is coming. That is not so. Death is the beginning of life, eternal life with the Creator linked in His blood, the blood of the second Adam. Death is also eternal separation into darkness for those who refused to exit the blood of fallen Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 2:15-16 "Then said I in my heart, As it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth even to me; and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart, that this also is vanity. [16] For there is no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool for ever; seeing that which now is in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dieth the wise man? as the fool."<br><br>In my friend's quote, he mentioned there's no remembrance of the dead. He explained that to mean, we don't remember the name of our friend's great-great-grandfather. He said when a person dies, we remember them for several years, but after a while they are all forgotten. &nbsp;We go back to our daily activities, forgotten about all the dead<br>But that is not so, because there are two people that will always be remembered:<br>1. The first Adam<br>2. The second Adam<br><br><br>Death comes by one and life comes by the other. Death came by the disobedience of the first Adam, and life came by the obedience of the second Adam. Those will forever be remembered.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 2:17-24 "Therefore I hated life; because the work that is wrought under the sun is grievous unto me: for all is vanity and vexation of spirit. [18] Yea, I hated all my labour which I had taken under the sun: because I should leave it unto the man that shall be after me. [19] And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise man or a fool? yet shall he have rule over all my labour wherein I have laboured, and wherein I have shewed myself wise under the sun. This is also vanity. [20] Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair of all the labour which I took under the sun. [21] For there is a man whose labour is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not laboured therein shall he leave it for his portion. This also is vanity and a great evil. [22] For what hath man of all his labour, and of the vexation of his heart, wherein he hath laboured under the sun? [23] For all his days are sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity. [24] There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink, and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God."<br><br>Pleasure on Earth is not the solution to death. It's pleasure after death, which comes about by choosing to place our faith in the new blood covenant, the blood of the new Adam. Death will only free this corrupt body into incorruption, into a life where there will be no more tears, no more sickness, and no more death, a life eternal with the Creator.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 2:25-26 "For who can eat, or who else can hasten hereunto, more than I? [26] For God giveth to a man that is good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to him that is good before God. This also is vanity and vexation of spirit."<br><br>Life is lived in vain if the focus is on what happens on earth and not what happens after death. Life begins after our physical death. There will be two resurrections:<br>1. The resurrection unto damnation<br>2. The resurrection unto life<br>&nbsp;<br>Choose the resurrection unto eternal life by placing your faith in the blood sacrifice of the second Adam. Believe and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. Death of the physical blood body is only the beginning, in Christ!<br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

The sea water heats up, evaporates, goes to the clouds, and the clouds precipitate and fall as rain. The cycle repeats itself.<br><br>One day starts at 12 a.m. and ends at 11:59 p.m., and the cycle repeats. The week starts, then comes a weekend, and then repeats itself. One month starts and comes to an end. Then another month starts, repeats 12 times. One year begins and ends, and then repeats itself. One generation is born. They go through life under the sun, they die off, and then another generation is born. They go through life under the sun and they die off. Repetition, seasons, cycling of generations<br><br>Where does life begin, and does life have an end? These questions cannot be answered until we know what life is.<br>With the revelation of blood, we can now answer the question of life: where it all began and the two pathways.<br><br>The writer of Ecclesiastes and his inability to answer these questions calls it "vanity of vanity." They could only live under the light that they were provided. Today we have a new light, the light of the revelation of Gods blood.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 1:1-3 "The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. [2] Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. [3] What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?"<br><br>With all the labor of man under the sun, all through their life, there is nothing we take with us when we take our last physical breath. What makes the difference? It's our faith. Your faith determines your next phase of life.<br><br>If one remains in the blood of the first Adam through unbelief, they are stuck in the blood of Adam at the end, and their light is caught up in a nightmare. This is the definition of Hell.<br><br>If one, on the contrary, by faith turns on their light and escapes the blood of the first Adam and enters into the blood of the second Adam, then the next phase of their life is eternal life with the Creator, the one who loved them and made this pathway possible.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 1:5-8 "The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose. [6] The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits. [7] All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again. [8] All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing."<br><br>We now know our five senses and why they can never be satisfied, because they are corrupt. The blood of Adam, which gave us our five physical senses, is corrupted with unbelief, sin, disease, and death.<br>Their nose is not satisfied with smelling. The mouth is not satisfied with speaking and eating. The eyes are not satisfied with seeing. The body is not satisfied with feeling. Today, many young people cut themselves or burn themselves, and when you ask them, they say, "Because I want to feel something." There is no satisfaction in feeling.<br><br>Their ear is not satisfied with hearing:<br>- gossiping<br>- newsflash<br>- Twitter<br>- Facebook<br>- Instagram<br>- email<br><br><br>The list goes on and on. Switching between TV channels. Sports, entertainment. No satisfaction. For there is no satisfaction in the blood of fallen Adam, none. This is the revelation of God’s blood.<br><br>We continue our reading.<br><br>Ecclesiastes 1:9-15 "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. [10] Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. [11] There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after. [12] I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem. [13] And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. [14] I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. [15] That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered."<br><br>That which is crooked cannot be made straight. The immoral man or woman cannot be taught morality. They can &nbsp;be moved out of one bloodline to another, and this can only be done by their faith. This is how the crooked can be made straight. Our immorality comes from the corrupted blood of the first Adam. Our morality also comes from the perfect blood of the second Adam. The blood of God.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Ecclesiastes 1:16-18 "I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge. [17] And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit. [18] For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow."<br><br>Many have studied, spent a lifetime to learn where life began, and if it has an end. At best, they proclaimed it was all vanity. Today, with the revelation of God’s blood, we now know why it began and where it bifurcates, based solely on our faith. No man can now plead ignorance because light has come.<br><br>Turn on your light of faith and place in the blood of the second Adam, the blood of God. Believe and confess Jesus Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed him from the first Adam. Life began with the blood f God and continues with or without the blood of God. It's the choice of faith, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

They are not aware they are actually giving their strength to the substance. Instead of the substance helping them, it's rather destroying them.<br>They drink to forget about their problems, without knowledge that the problem is the blood of the fallen Adam that they found themselves in. No amount of alcohol, tobacco, or any illicit substance can fix their problem. Today, we know the solution is to get out of the fallen Adam's blood by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ, the last Adam.<br><br>Jesus Christ is the only way to God because the first Adam was the broken way to God.<br><br>Beauty has consumed the average woman today. Sarah was beautiful at the age of 90 that the Pharaoh of Egypt wanted to take her for a wife in a place where they have many young women one would expect to be more beautiful than Sarah. Sarah's beauty was not just a physical beauty; it was a moral beauty, a beauty that comes from the Holy Spirit.<br><br>The writer of Proverbs talks about a virtuous woman. He says, "Favor is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman that fears the Lord shall be praised." Beauty is the fear of the Lord. It is moral beauty.<br><br>Let's read.:<br><br>Proverbs 31:1-3 "The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him. [2] What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows? [3] Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings."<br><br>The immoral man will give his strength to many women because he is not in fear of the Lord. He will give his strength to substances because he is not in fear of the Lord. The immoral man doesn't understand where the problem is coming from. Today, with the revelation of blood, the immoral man doesn't have to be immoral anymore. The immoral woman doesn't have to be immoral anymore. They can escape immorality out of the blood of the first Adam and enter into morality, into the blood of the last Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 31:4-7 "It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink: [5] Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted. [6] Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts. [7] Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more."<br><br>The heart may be heavy with pain, suffering, torment, and the anguish of this world. The answer is not in a substance but in blood. Every problem that we encounter in this world is due to the blood of the fallen Adam. Before there was sin, there was no sickness, there was no disease, there was no poverty, there was no bitterness, there was no strife, there was perfection. When sin entered the world, blood was contaminated with disease, murder, fear, instability, hatred, and the list goes on. The solution is another blood, the blood of the Last Adam.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 31:8-25 "Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction. [9] Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy. [10] Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. [11] The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. [12] She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. [13] She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. [14] She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar. [15] She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. [16] She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. [17] She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. [18] She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night. [19] She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. [20] She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. [21] She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet. [22] She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple. [23] Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land. [24] She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant. [25] Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come."<br><br>Strength and honour are the clothing of the virtuous woman. She rejoices in the Lord. This is the woman that has escaped the blood of Adam, the first Adam, into the blood of the last Adam. This is where strength and honour and joy are a fruit of a life. Like Sarah of old, the Holy Spirit is her portion. She is morally beautiful.<br><br>We continue our reading.:<br><br>Proverbs 31:26 "She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness."<br><br>The virtuous woman is kind and opens her mouth with wisdom, a direct fruit of the Holy Spirit.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 31:27-31 "She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. [28] Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. [29] Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. [30] Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. [31] Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates."<br><br>Immorality is remaining in the blood of the fallen Adam and looking to find strength in substances and things around you. Morality is to be in the blood of the second Adam, with your strength coming solely from God the Holy Spirit.<br><br>That immoral individual bears fruit of the first Adam, the fallen Adam. The moral individual bears fruit of the blood of the last Adam, the fruit of the Holy Spirit.<br><br>Exit the blood of the first Adam by turning on your light of faith. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the last Adam, as we've revealed him from the first Adam. Morality is only, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Who has bound the sea-water into one place and tells the sea, "You can only come this far onto the land"? Who has comprehended the dust of the earth, and established the ends of the earth? What is his name? What is his son's name?<br><br>His name is God, and His son's name is God's blood, Jesus Christ, the last Adam. He is wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. He is God's new blood covenant.<br><br>His wisdom is foolishness to the logical man or woman. He gave the blood of his son through death on a cross to sanctify and redeem the world. This is the new blood covenant. It was a mystery. It was the hidden wisdom of God. It is now revealed to the world.<br><br>Let's read.<br><br>Proverbs 30:1-3 "The words of Agur the son of Jakeh, even the prophecy: the man spake unto Ithiel, even unto Ithiel and Ucal, [2] Surely I am more brutish than any man, and have not the understanding of a man. [3] I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy."<br><br>God the Holy Spirit knows all things, understands all things. He has foreknowledge of all things. When a man or woman is redeemed out of the blood of the fallen Adam, out of the broken old covenant, into the new covenant, into the blood of the last Adam, they become one with God, the Holy Spirit. He Who knows all things will teach them all things and bring all things to their understanding. They walk and live only according to the limitation of their faith. If they can believe it, everything that belongs to God is theirs. They have become heirs of God and co-heirs with the blood of God, the Lamb of God, the last Adam through the new blood covenant.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 30:4-5 "Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell? [5] Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him."<br><br>God is His word. When a man or woman receives the word of God into them, they have received God. The word of God is pure. The word of God is a shield.<br><br>When a man or woman receives the word of God and believes it, and is redeemed out of the blood of Adam into the blood of God, they are purified and shielded by the blood of God. They are shielded from the things of the world and made pure daily from their sins shortfalls. This is the daily cleansing and replenishment provided only by the blood of God, the blood of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 30:6-20 "Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar. [7] Two things have I required of thee; deny me them not before I die: [8] Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me: [9] Lest I be full, and deny thee, and say, Who is the LORD? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain. [10] Accuse not a servant unto his master, lest he curse thee, and thou be found guilty. [11] There is a generation that curseth their father, and doth not bless their mother. [12] There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness. [13] There is a generation, O how lofty are their eyes! and their eyelids are lifted up. [14] There is a generation, whose teeth are as swords, and their jaw teeth as knives, to devour the poor from off the earth, and the needy from among men. [15] The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give. There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things say not, It is enough: [16] The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not filled with water; and the fire that saith not, It is enough. [17] The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out, and the young eagles shall eat it. [18] There be three things which are too wonderful for me, yea, four which I know not: [19] The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a serpent upon a rock; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea; and the way of a man with a maid. [20] Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness."<br><br>&nbsp;When Adam broke his covenant with God, every man, woman, boy, or girl that will be born as a descendant of Adam, becomes part of the broken covenant. They are judged unto death just like Adam.<br>Sin is remaining in the blood of Adam through unbelief. Adultery, wickedness, hate, murder are all the result of remaining in the blood of Adam, fallen Adam, through unbelief. It is called the way of the wicked.<br><br>We conclude our reading.<br><br>Proverbs 30:21-33 "For three things the earth is disquieted, and for four which it cannot bear: [22] For a servant when he reigneth; and a fool when he is filled with meat; [23] For an odious woman when she is married; and an handmaid that is heir to her mistress. [24] There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise: [25] The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer; [26] The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks; [27] The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands; [28] The spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings' palaces. [29] There be three things which go well, yea, four are comely in going: [30] A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any; [31] A greyhound; an he goat also; and a king, against whom there is no rising up. [32] If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast thought evil, lay thine hand upon thy mouth. [33] Surely the churning of milk bringeth forth butter, and the wringing of the nose bringeth forth blood: so the forcing of wrath bringeth forth strife."<br><br>God, by His mercy and grace, has provided a way of escape. The way of escape is the new blood covenant, the shed blood and broken body that was served on the platter of the cross for the whole world to feast on, to exit the blood of fallen Adam into the new blood of God, the last Adam.<br><br>Enter into the new blood covenant. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the last Adam, as we've revealed Him, from the first Adam. The wisdom, understanding, and knowledge of the Holy One, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

He is the last Adam, the blood of God. Those who thirst and hunger after righteousness shall be filled. Those who thirst and hunger after the second Adam, the blood of God, shall be fulfilled. The apostle Paul, in writing to the Galatians, says, "If righteousness comes any other way, then Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, the last Adam, died in vain."<br>We receive righteousness or the Lamb of God, the last Adam, by faith in his finished work on the cross. This is where his body was broken and his blood was shed on the platform of the cross. Like food is served on a plate and we consume that physically to have physical life, His broken body and His blood were served on the plate of the old rugged cross. We enter into his death by turning on our lights of faith and placing that faith in his blood sacrifice. In this process, we must believe to die with him, be buried with him, and resurrect with him. We must believe that righteousness walks on earth today in the person of the Holy Spirit. In thirst, we must ask righteousness to come and live in us, to fill us with His Spirit and become one with him. That is how we receive righteousness, the Lamb of God, the Last Adam, the blood of God. Whoever hungers and thirsts after righteousness shall be filled.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 29:1-2 "He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy. [2] When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn."<br><br>The righteous is the man or woman in Christ. This individual has turned on his light of faith and has placed it in the blood of the last Adam, the blood of God. He has been uprooted from the blood of fallen Adam into the blood of the last Adam. He has become one with God through faith in the blood of God. He has believed to die, be buried, and resurrected with the last Adam and has been filled by His Spirit.<br>The wicked is not so. The wicked is a man or woman who remains in the blood of fallen Adam through unbelief.<br><br>&nbsp;We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 29:3-6 "Whoso loveth wisdom rejoiceth his father: but he that keepeth company with harlots spendeth his substance. [4] The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it. [5] A man that flattereth his neighbour spreadeth a net for his feet. [6] In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice."<br><br>The righteous, the men or women who have placed their light in the blood of the Last Adam, rejoices, because they have been redeemed from death unto life.<br>The snare of life is the blood of fallen Adam, the cause of all the problems of the world.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 29:7-25 "The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the wicked regardeth not to know it. [8] Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath. [9] If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no rest. [10] The bloodthirsty hate the upright: but the just seek his soul. [11] A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards. [12] If a ruler hearken to lies, all his servants are wicked. [13] The poor and the deceitful man meet together: the LORD lighteneth both their eyes. [14] The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, his throne shall be established for ever. [15] The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame. [16] When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall. [17] Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul. [18] Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. [19] A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer. [20] Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him. [21] He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length. [22] An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression. [23] A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit. [24] Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not. [25] The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe."<br><br>To put one's trust in the Lord is, by faith, placed in the ultimate work of the Lord on the Cross. This is where His broken body and blood were served to the world. This shed blood and broken body must be eaten daily, spiritually, by applying our sense of faith to it. Our sense of faith is what turns on our light, and this light is applied to his broken body and shed blood on the cross. This is the source of healing, physically and spiritually. It's the source of our daily refreshment, our daily replenishment. That is how we trust in the Lord. This is our place of safety.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 29:26-27 "Many seek the ruler's favour; but every man's judgment cometh from the LORD. [27] An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked."<br><br>The righteous is the just man or woman. The righteous is the man or woman who is justified by the blood of the last Adam. They are justified by God's blood because they have exited the blood of fallen Adam into the blood of the last Adam. They have nothing in common with the wicked, the man or woman who remains in the blood of fallen Adam through unbelief.<br><br>Exit the blood of fallen Adam. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the last Adam, as we have revealed him from the first Adam. Righteousness is only, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

He was always afraid, but he was the chief resident. If you will see him speak, and how he carried himself in public. He looked strong and powerful, eloquent, smart, very nice to talk to, but when he comes to talk to me in secret, he's always in fear. I will ask him, "What are you afraid of?" and he will tell me, "I am afraid that something bad will happen. I always feel like something bad will happen to me." He will say.<br><br>When the first Adam was in the garden with the heavenly Father in a blood covenant with the heavenly Father, there was love, peace, and there was no fear. Immediately after he broke that covenant, he was in fear. He went hiding from God. God came in the cool of the day, looking for him, and asked, "Adam, where are you?" God's blood response was, "I was afraid."<br><br>Fear is a symptom of the fallen Adamic nature. Today in our world, we call them phobias. There are:<br>- animal phobias<br>- natural environment phobia<br>- blood injection injury phobia<br>- situational phobia<br><br><br>and over 500 named phobias with the potential for an infinite number .<br><br>The answer for fear is to exit the blood of the first Adam by turning on the light of faith and entering the blood of God, the blood of the last Adam.<br>In the blood of the last Adam is love and boldness. It's love presented in boldness.<br><br>The writer of the Proverbs says, "The righteous is as bold as a lion." The righteous is the man or woman who has been redeemed out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the last Adam.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 28:1 "The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion."<br><br>The wicked is the man or woman who remains in the blood of the first Adam through unbelief. Just as fallen Adam, constant fear is a result.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 28:2-5 "For the transgression of a land many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge the state thereof shall be prolonged. [3] A poor man that oppresseth the poor is like a sweeping rain which leaveth no food. [4] They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them. [5] Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things."<br><br>Understanding all things is a work of the Holy Spirit in a man or woman. The Holy Spirit is accessible to the man or woman who has been redeemed out of the blood of fallen Adam into the blood of the last Adam, the blood of God. Until this redemption has taken place, the man or woman has no understanding.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 28:6-13 "Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich. [7] Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father. [8] He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor. [9] He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination. [10] Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession. [11] The rich man is wise in his own conceit; but the poor that hath understanding searcheth him out. [12] When righteous men do rejoice, there is great glory: but when the wicked rise, a man is hidden. [13] He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy."<br><br>Before there was any sin in the world, there was no fear. The first Adam was in perfect communion with His Father. The result of unconfessed sin is fear. If we confess our sins, the Heavenly Father is faithful and merciful to forgive us from all our sins. The blood of the Last Adam cleanses us from all sin and all fear.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 28:14-17 "Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief. [15] As a roaring lion, and a ranging bear; so is a wicked ruler over the poor people. [16] The prince that wanteth understanding is also a great oppressor: but he that hateth covetousness shall prolong his days. [17] A man that doeth violence to the blood of any person shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him."<br><br>&nbsp;Blood (Dam) is physical and spiritual. Blood violence or the shedding of blood strikes God. When Cain killed his brother Abel, the blood of Abel cried out to God.<br>When the Children of Israel were leaving Egypt, they had to physically put blood on the doorposts of their homes so that when the Angel of Death who was in the spirit came, he would pass them over. Blood is physical and spiritual.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 28:18-26 "Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once. [19] He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough. [20] A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent. [21] To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress. [22] He that hasteth to be rich hath an evil eye, and considereth not that poverty shall come upon him. [23] He that rebuketh a man afterwards shall find more favour than he that flattereth with the tongue. [24] Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer. [25] He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the LORD shall be made fat. [26] He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered."<br><br>God has not given the righteous the spirit of fear but the spirit of love, the spirit of power, and the spirit of a sound mind. This is the Holy Spirit. He is accessible to the man or woman who has been redeemed out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the last Adam.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 28:27-28 "He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse. [28] When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase."<br><br>The righteous will always prevail. Sooner or later, the wicked is like chaff blown by the wind.<br><br>Turn on your light of faith and exit the blood of fallen Adam. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the last Adam, as we revealed him from the first Adam. Fear is a spirit, a tormenting spirit. Love, peace, power, sound mind is God's answer to fear, in Christ!<br><br><br></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Look at it from this perspective. When Adam was sent out of the Garden of Eden to go and till the ground for survival, there was nothing Adam could do to satisfy him. So is every man or woman in the blood seed of Adam. The only thing that could satisfy Adam is to be brought back to his original position before his broken covenant with God.<br><br>Nothing in this world will satisfy us. The only way to be satisfied is to be removed from the blood of the fallen Adam into the blood of the last Adam, the blood of God.<br><br>The writer of the proverb declares, "Nothing satisfies."<br><br>Let's read:<br>Proverbs 27:1-6 "Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth. [2] Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips. [3] A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both. [4] Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy? [5] Open rebuke is better than secret love. [6] Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful."<br><br>Adam and Eve had a faithful friend in God, but Eve was deceived by the charming words of the enemy, the serpent.<br>A faithful friend is the one who always point you to God and His word.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 27:7-9 "The full soul loatheth an honeycomb; but to the hungry soul every bitter thing is sweet. [8] As a bird that wandereth from her nest, so is a man that wandereth from his place. [9] Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart: so doth the sweetness of a man's friend by hearty counsel."<br><br>A hearty counsel is a counsel that stems from the Holy Spirit. This is a counsel that comes through the man or woman who is in Christ, the Holy Spirit counseling others through them. This is what it means to have the light of God, the light of the world, shining through you to others.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 27:10-19 "Thine own friend, and thy father's friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother's house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off. [11] My son, be wise, and make my heart glad, that I may answer him that reproacheth me. [12] A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished. [13] Take his garment that is surety for a stranger, and take a pledge of him for a strange woman. [14] He that blesseth his friend with a loud voice, rising early in the morning, it shall be counted a curse to him. [15] A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike. [16] Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself. [17] Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. [18] Whoso keepeth the fig tree shall eat the fruit thereof: so he that waiteth on his master shall be honoured. [19] As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man."<br><br>The heart is desperately wicked. Who can know it? As long as an individual remains in the blood seed of fallen Adam, the heart remains wicked. They have the same heart as the next natural man because they are in the same blood. We receive a new heart, a transformed heart, when we turn on our light of faith and exit the blood of fallen Adam and enter into the blood of God, the new Adam. Until then, our heart remains just as wicked as the next man.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 27:20 "Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied."<br><br>There was nothing that Adam could do to bring him satisfaction, and that applies to all men and women in the blood seed of fallen Adam. The only thing that will satisfy Adam is to be reconnected with God, to be placed back in his original position. This is what God has provided for us through the new blood, the new Adam. We receive satisfaction when we come out of the blood of the fallen Adam into the blood of God, the new Adam. Nothing else in this world will satisfy a man or a woman.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 27:21-27 "As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise. [22] Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him. [23] Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds. [24] For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation? [25] The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered. [26] The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field. [27] And thou shalt have goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens."<br><br>Not enough money, fame, accolades, achievements, or possessions can satisfy a man or woman. The cause of dissatisfaction is the old blood, and the solution to dissatisfaction is the new blood.<br><br>Exit the old blood of fallenAdam by turning on your light of faith. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the new blood of God, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. Satisfaction is only, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

This condition is cured by simply believing.<br><br>Man fell in the first Adam, the first God's blood covenant. Man is restored when they enter into the last Adam, their last God's blood covenant. This is what the self-proclaimed atheists must believe to be cured.<br><br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 26:1-5 "As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honour is not seemly for a fool.

[4] Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him. [5] Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit."<br><br>There is no need to argue with a self-proclaimed atheist. Just point them to God's blood covenant. The problem is with their faith and not their logic. The problem is with their faith and not their five physical senses. The problem is with their sixth sense.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 26:6-12 "He that sendeth a message by the hand of a fool cutteth off the feet, and drinketh damage. [7] The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools. [8] As he that bindeth a stone in a sling, so is he that giveth honour to a fool. [9] As a thorn goeth up into the hand of a drunkard, so is a parable in the mouth of fools. [10] The great God that formed all things both rewardeth the fool, and rewardeth transgressors. [11] As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly. [12] Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him."<br><br>For there to be a tree, there first has to be soil for the tree to stand on. For there to be a fish with gills, there first has to be water for the fish to swim in.<br>For there to be a body, there first has to be blood. For there to be a creation, there first has to be the Creator.<br><br>They have ears but cannot hear and have eyes but cannot see. That self-proclaimed atheist is trying to hear and see with their physical senses instead of their sixth sense, the sense of faith.<br><br>They have faith. They just refuse to use it to hear and see that God is in every life, from the least organism to the greatest.<br><br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 26:13-25 "The slothful man saith, There is a lion in the way; a lion is in the streets. [14] As the door turneth upon his hinges, so doth the slothful upon his bed. [15] The slothful hideth his hand in his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth. [16] The sluggard is wiser in his own conceit than seven men that can render a reason. [17] He that passeth by, and meddleth with strife belonging not to him, is like one that taketh a dog by the ears. [18] As a mad man who casteth firebrands, arrows, and death, [19] So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport? [20] Where no wood is, there the fire goeth out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceaseth. [21] As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife. [22] The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. [23] Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross. [24] He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him; [25] When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart."<br><br>Believe not the words of the wicked. They were the same words of the wicked that came to Eve in the garden. He's the same serpent today. He works through men and women who self-proclaim as atheists.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 26:26-28 "Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation. [27] Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him. [28] A lying tongue hateth those that are afflicted by it; and a flattering mouth worketh ruin."<br><br>Eve was not aware that Satan hated her. The serpent was her enemy and came to destroy her, so is the self-proclaimed atheist, a destroyer of the faith of his audience.<br><br>Turn on your light of faith. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the last God's blood covenant, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam, the first God's blood covenant. He is the God that keeps His covenant, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

But by one man's obedience through faith, righteousness entered the world and through that all men and women through faith have eternal life<br><br>Every man or woman still in the blood of fallen Adam is a thirsty soul. Sooner or later, the blood of Adam will die and that light will be caught up in a nightmare. They even feel the effect as they walk on planet earth today. They know something is wrong. they don't know how to fix it.<br><br>The gospel of faith in the blood of the last Adam is like cold water to this thirsty soul.. It allows them to escape the blood of fallen Adam into the new blood of God. Their trajectory is changed from death unto eternal life.<br><br>Lets read:<br><br>Proverbs 25:1-5 "These are also proverbs of Solomon, which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied out. [2] It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter. [3] The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable. [4] Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer. [5] Take away the wicked from before the king, and his throne shall be established in righteousness."<br><br>The wicked is the man or woman who remains in the blood of fallen Adam through unbelief. Their light remains turned off. Their counseling comes not from the Holy spirit but from evil spirit. It's counseling of death, counseling of darkness.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 25:6-13 "Put not forth thyself in the presence of the king, and stand not in the place of great men: [7] For better it is that it be said unto thee, Come up hither; than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen. [8] Go not forth hastily to strive, lest thou know not what to do in the end thereof, when thy neighbour hath put thee to shame. [9] Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another: [10] Lest he that heareth it put thee to shame, and thine infamy turn not away. [11] A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. [12] As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear. [13] As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger to them that send him: for he refresheth the soul of his masters."<br><br>The faithful messenger is the man or woman who takes the gospel to others. He or she refreshes the Heavenly Father.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 25:14-19 "Whoso boasteth himself of a false gift is like clouds and wind without rain. [15] By long forbearing is a prince persuaded, and a soft tongue breaketh the bone. [16] Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee, lest thou be filled therewith, and vomit it. [17] Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house; lest he be weary of thee, and so hate thee. [18] A man that beareth false witness against his neighbour is a maul, and a sword, and a sharp arrow. [19] Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint."<br><br><br>The unfaithful man is the serpent. Eve took confidence in him and was gravely disappointed. Take confidence in the Word of God. Jesus Christ is the Word of God, the last Adam, the blood of God. He is the sure foundation.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 25:20-25 "As he that taketh away a garment in cold weather, and as vinegar upon nitre, so is he that singeth songs to an heavy heart. [21] If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink: [22] For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee. [23] The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance a backbiting tongue. [24] It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house. [25] As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country."<br><br>The gospel of the blood of God will quench the thirst of every soul. All they have to do is exit the blood of Adam, the fallen Adam, by turning on their light of faith and entering into the blood of the last Adam. They leave all their problems behind.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 25:26-28 "A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring. [27] It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory. [28] He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls."<br><br>The spirit of man and woman is ruled either by the Holy Spirit or evil spirit, depending on whether their lights are turned on by faith or turned off by unbelief.<br><br>Turn on your light of faith and place it in the blood of Jesus Christ, the last Adam. BELIEVE and confess Jesus Christ, the blood of God, as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. The blood of God is a quencher of every thirst, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

His name means "God's blood": a perfect blood, a perfect man, a righteous man. He knew no evil. He did no evil. He was the exact image of God.<br><br>When the first man, Adam, stepped outside the Word of God through unbelief, he broke the blood covenant. He was no longer in the image of God. Evil has entered into man. After breaking the blood covenant, the first man was no longer Adam, as to mean God's blood, but just Dam or blood.<br><br><br>Evil has now entered into man. There is no remedy except that man be cursed to die. The part of man that was seized by evil will have to return to dust, so that the image of God, which is the light of God in man, may be retained.<br>Evil could not get into the light. Evil could only remain in the blood through sin, disease, and death. We do &nbsp;sin with our light through unbelief. That's the ultimate sin. Our light does not get sick, and our light does not die because the light is God in man or woman. We turn off God thtrogjh unbelief.<br><br>The writer of Proverbs says, "Do not be envious of evil men. The men and women who remain in the blood of fallen Adam. Their end is death, but the righteous man, the man or woman who has exited the blood of fallen Adam and entered the blood of the Last Adam. By turning on their light through faith, they have escaped death for eternal life.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 24:1-2 "Be not thou envious against evil men, neither desire to be with them. [2] For their heart studieth destruction, and their lips talk of mischief."<br><br>The evil man or woman is the unbeliever. Their light is turned off through unbelief. They are led by an evil spirit, which is the source of their destructiveness and mischievousness.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 24:3-4 "Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: [4] And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches."<br><br>God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. All three in one. Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge. Three in one. Wisdom builds, understanding establishes, and knowledge procures.<br><br>Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge come when the individual exits the blood of fallen Adam and enters the blood of the last Adam, the blood of God, the blood of Jesus Christ.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 24:5-14 "A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength. [6] For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety. [7] Wisdom is too high for a fool: he openeth not his mouth in the gate. [8] He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person. [9] The thought of foolishness is sin: and the scorner is an abomination to men. [10] If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small. [11] If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; [12] If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works? [13] My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste: [14] So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off."<br><br>Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge cannot be found as long as our lights of faith remain turned off. In the blood of fallen Adam, we remain fools.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 24:15-20 "Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place: [16] For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief. [17] Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth: [18] Lest the LORD see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him. [19] Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked; [20] For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out."<br><br>The righteous man, the man or woman who has exited the blood of fallen Adam into the blood of the last Adam, has no reason to fear or envy the man or woman who remains in the blood of fallen Adam.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 24:21-34 "My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change: [22] For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both? [23] These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment. [24] He that saith unto the wicked, Thou art righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him: [25] But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them. [26] Every man shall kiss his lips that giveth a right answer. [27] Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house. [28] Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and deceive not with thy lips. [29] Say not, I will do so to him as he hath done to me: I will render to the man according to his work. [30] I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding; [31] And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down. [32] Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction. [33] Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: [34] So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man."<br><br>Laziness is part of the corrupted five physical senses. God is a creator, and when God is in a man or woman, they exemplify the creative abilities of God. A slothful man or woman is the one who has their light of faith turned off. Not only are their hands folded, but their light is also turned off.<br><br>Turn on your light of faith. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the blood of God, as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. Wisdom, understanding, and knowledge only in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

God, from the beginning, has separated faith from unbelief. There were two trees in the garden of Eden. One was a tree of life, and the other was a tree of the knowledge of good and evil. One brought life, and the other brought death. Separation.<br><br>It is the same separation today. The word of God is a tree of life. Any other word outside the word of God is a tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The result is death.<br><br>God has separated men into two bloods:<br>1. The blood of the fallen Adam<br>2. The blood of the last Adam, which is also the blood of God or the blood of Jesus Christ<br><br><br>One blood leads to death. The other blood leads to eternal life.<br><br>There is also a spiritual landmark. Man is either led by the Holy Spirit or evil spirit. Those who are children of God, encapsulated in the blood of God or the blood of the last Adam, the blood of Jesus Christ, are led by the Holy Spirit.<br>Those who are not children of God, encapsulated in the blood of fallen Adam, are led by evil spirits.<br><br>The landmark of God.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 23:1-10 "When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what is before thee: [2] And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite. [3] Be not desirous of his dainties: for they are deceitful meat. [4] Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. [5] Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven. [6] Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats: [7] For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee. [8] The morsel which thou hast eaten shalt thou vomit up, and lose thy sweet words. [9] Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of thy words. [10] Remove not the old landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless:"<br><br>Satan is the cause of fatherlessness. In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve had a father, but the serpent came and was able to remove them from their father by selling them unbelief. A covenant, a blood covenant that Adam and Eve had with God, was broken. Adam and Eve are now fatherless.<br>We remove the old landmark by unbelief in the word of God, and we become fatherless. We lose our relationship with the Heavenly Father because what binds a man or woman with the Heavenly Father is faith in His word, the blood of Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 23:11-12 "For their redeemer is mighty; he shall plead their cause with thee. [12] Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge."<br><br>We believe with our heart. Believe the word of God. That is the word of wisdom, the word of understanding, the word of knowledge.<br><br>We continue our reading;<br><br>Proverbs 23:13-21 "Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die. [14] Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell. [15] My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. [16] Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things. [17] Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the LORD all the day long. [18] For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off. [19] Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thine heart in the way. [20] Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh: [21] For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags."<br><br>Many do not know why they overeat, and the alcoholic does not know why he's an alcoholic. These are results of the Damic nature. Our five physical senses are corrupted because of the inherited Damic nature.<br>We eat to find satisfaction in food, and that satisfaction never arrives. The alcoholic drinks to find satisfaction in alcohol, and that satisfaction never arrives. The answer to overeating or alcoholism is to be removed from the blood of fallen Adam into the blood of the Last Adam, the blood of God, the blood of Jesus Christ.<br>This is done by our faith, which turns on our light. Remember, you are a light, and what turns on that light is faith. You place that faith in the blood of God, the blood of Jesus Christ. To this effect, when he was crucified, you were crucified with him. When he died, you died with him. When he was buried, you were buried with him. When he resurrected, you resurrected with him, and now you become one with him. You are now in Christ, one in word, one in blood, one in light.<br><br>You have escaped the blood of fallen Adam. You are no longer led by the five senses from the nature of fallen Adam. You now have the mind of Christ. You are led by your spiritual senses of free will, faith, subconscious thought, feelings, and memory, all focused on the Spirit of God. You are led by the Holy Spirit.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 23:22-35 "Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, and despise not thy mother when she is old. [23] Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. [24] The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him. [25] Thy father and thy mother shall be glad, and she that bare thee shall rejoice. [26] My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways. [27] For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit. [28] She also lieth in wait as for a prey, and increaseth the transgressors among men. [29] Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? [30] They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine. [31] Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright. [32] At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. [33] Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thine heart shall utter perverse things. [34] Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast. [35] They have stricken me, shalt thou say, and I was not sick; they have beaten me, and I felt it not: when shall I awake? I will seek it yet again."<br><br>Alcohol just numbs all the senses of the man or woman, keeps you in bondage, the bondage of the Dcmic or sin nature. We escaped this bondage by faith. Light turned on.<br><br>Turn on your light. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the blood of God, as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. There is a line of separation, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

[18] For it is a pleasant thing if thou keep them within thee; they shall withal be fitted in thy lips. [19] That thy trust may be in the LORD, I have made known to thee this day, even to thee. [20] Have not I written to thee excellent things in counsels and knowledge,"<br><br>The Word of God is the source of excellent things, counsels, knowledge, and truth.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 22:21-28 "That I might make thee know the certainty of the words of truth; that thou mightest answer the words of truth to them that send unto thee? [22] Rob not the poor, because he is poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate: [23] For the LORD will plead their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them. [24] Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go: [25] Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul. [26] Be not thou one of them that strike hands, or of them that are sureties for debts. [27] If thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed from under thee? [28] Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set."<br><br>The landmark is the line of separation. It separates the believer from the unbeliever, the righteous from the wicked. The word of God is the landmark.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 22:29 "Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men."<br><br>Diligence in all affairs is a backbone to success. Without diligence, a man or woman is bound to fail.<br>As important as success is, God has not called us to be successful. He has called us to be faithful.<br><br>Enter into the Name above all names. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the Second Adam, as we revealed Him from the First Adam. One good name, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Mercy is also a person. Righteousness and mercy is Jesus Christ, the blood of God.<br><br>He that follows after righteousness and mercy shall find life, righteousness, and honor.<br><br>Let's read:'<br><br>Proverbs 21:1-2 "The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. [2] Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts."<br><br>There are only two ways:<br>1. There is man's way.<br>2. God's provided way, which is Jesus Christ, the blood of God.<br><br>That's why Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life." Any other way is man's way.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 21:3-8 "To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. [4] An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin. [5] The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want. [6] The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death. [7] The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment. [8] The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right."<br><br>The pure is a man or woman who has exited the blood of Adam into Jesus Christ, the blood of God. The pure is going God's way. Man's way is a way of Adam. It is ftroward and death.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 21:9-12 "It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house. [10] The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes. [11] When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge. [12] The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness."<br><br>The righteous man is the man that has exited the blood of Adam into the blood of God. He looks to draw the wicked out of the blood of Adam into the blood of God. This is the premise of preaching the gospel.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 21:13-21 "Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard. [14] A gift in secret pacifieth anger: and a reward in the bosom strong wrath. [15] It is joy to the just to do judgment: but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity. [16] The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding shall remain in the congregation of the dead. [17] He that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not be rich. [18] The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous, and the transgressor for the upright. [19] It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman. [20] There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up. [21] He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and hhhonor<br><br>We follow after righteousness and mercy by turning on our light of faith and placing it in righteousness and mercy, who is Jesus Christ, the blood of God.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 21:22-30 "A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof. [23] Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles. [24] Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath. [25] The desire of the slothful killeth him; for his hands refuse to labour. [26] He coveteth greedily all the day long: but the righteous giveth and spareth not. [27] The sacrifice of the wicked is abomination: how much more, when he bringeth it with a wicked mind? [28] A false witness shall perish: but the man that heareth speaketh constantly. [29] A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his way. [30] There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD."<br><br>No man or woman can bring any charge against God. God is all wisdom, all understanding. He is the ultimate Counselor, the Holy Spirit.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 21:31 "The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD."<br><br>There is no safe place outside Jesus Christ, the blood of God.<br><br>Let the blood of God become your hedge of protection. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the blood of God, as we have revealed Him from the blood of Adam. Righteousness and Mercy is a person, the blood of God, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

This is done when we exit Adam's blood into the blood of Jesus Christ.<br><br>It is by Him and through Him, the Holy Spirit, that we as branches bear all the fruit of God.<br><br>The Holy Spirit in the heart of a man or woman is like deep water.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 20:1-5 "Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. [2] The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion: whoso provoketh him to anger sinneth against his own soul. [3] It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling. [4] The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing. [5] Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out."<br><br>The man or woman of understanding is the one who, by faith, has turned on their light, exited the blood of Adam into the blood of Christ. They are a channel through which the Holy Spirit flows to the world.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 20:6-7 "Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find? [7] The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him."'<br><br>The just is a man or woman who's justified by the blood of Jesus. They walk not in the integrity of their five senses, influenced by the blood of Adam, but they walk by faith with their light turned on in unity with God, covered by the blood of Jesus.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 20:8-9 "A king that sitteth in the throne of judgment scattereth away all evil with his eyes. [9] Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?"<br><br>Adam's blood has placed all men and women born out of the union between a man and a woman as sinners. The blood of Jesus has made a way for every believer to leave the sinful blood of Adam into the pure blood of Jesus.<br>To escape death for life eternal.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 20:10-12 "Divers weights, and divers measures, both of them are alike abomination to the LORD. [11] Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right. [12] The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them."<br><br>The hearing ear and the seeing eye is a light of faith turned on. This individual is in tune with the Lord.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 20:13-27 "Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread. [14] It is naught, it is naught, saith the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth. [15] There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel. [16] Take his garment that is surety for a stranger: and take a pledge of him for a strange woman. [17] Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel. [18] Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war. [19] He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips. [20] Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness. [21] An inheritance may be gotten hastily at the beginning; but the end thereof shall not be blessed. [22] Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee. [23] Divers weights are an abomination unto the LORD; and a false balance is not good. [24] Man's goings are of the LORD; how can a man then understand his own way? [25] It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy, and after vows to make enquiry. [26] A wise king scattereth the wicked, and bringeth the wheel over them. [27] The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly."<br><br>A man or woman is led by either the Holy Spirit or evil spirit. It is from this perspective that God looks at all men. A man or woman in the blood of Jesus Christ is led by the Holy Spirit. Those who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God. These are those in the blood of Jesus. The man or woman in the blood of Adam is led by evil spirit. He or she is not a child of God.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 20:28-30 "Mercy and truth preserve the king: and his throne is upholden by mercy. [29] The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the gray head. [30] The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly."<br><br>He is Mercy, He is Truth, He is the King on the throne. His name is Jesus Christ.<br><br>Become one with the Mighty Counselor. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the blood of God as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. The Spirit of God uniting men and women with God, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Some call it heaven, others call it reincarnation.<br>The question is, how does one go to heaven to live with God when God sent Adam and Eve away? How does one reincarnate with a new body? Where do they get a new body from?<br><br>These are false witnesses. They witness what they know not.<br><br>The man or woman who witnesses of God without the blood of Jesus Christ as the only way to God.. This individual shall not go unpunished.<br><br>The revelation of blood explains that we can now unite with God through the second Adam. The revelation of blood explains that we will have a new body, because a body is simply the maturation of blood.<br><br>We thank God for the revelation of blood.<br><br>Let’s read:<br><br>Proverbs 19:1-5 "Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool. [2] Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; and he that hasteth with his feet sinneth. [3] The foolishness of man perverteth his way: and his heart fretteth against the LORD. [4] Wealth maketh many friends; but the poor is separated from his neighbour. [5] A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape."<br><br>Jesus Christ is the true witness of God. This is why the shedding of his blood on Calvary's cross is the most pivotal point in the history of creation. Just as the blood of Adam is at the cause of all the problems of man and woman, the blood of Jesus is the only solution to the problems of the world.<br><br>There is no other solution to the world's problems outside the blood of Jesus, because it was a perfect world before the fall of Adam. It will take a new Adam, a new God's blood, to bring the world back to that perfection.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br>Proverbs 19:6-9 "Many will intreat the favour of the prince: and every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts. [7] All the brethren of the poor do hate him: how much more do his friends go far from him? he pursueth them with words, yet they are wanting to him. [8] He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good. [9] A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish."<br><br>Any other way to God outside the blood of Jesus Christ is a false witness, leads people to the nightmare of hell.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 19:10-20 "Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes. [11] The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression. [12] The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass. [13] A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping. [14] House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the LORD. [15] Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger. [16] He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die. [17] He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again. [18] Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying. [19] A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if thou deliver him, yet thou must do it again. [20] Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end."<br><br>True counsel and instruction come from the Holy Spirit to the wise. The wise is the individual that has exited the blood of Adam into the blood of God, Jesus Christ.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 19:21 "There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand."<br><br>The counsel of the Lord is the Holy Spirit. He is the one that knows what tomorrow brings. He knows about our today and knows about our tomorrow. He is accessible to the man or woman who is in the blood of Christ.<br><br>The Holy Spirit told Simeon he shall not see death until he saw the Lord Christ, the Blood of God. It happened exactly as the Holy Spirit has promised.<br><br>Luke 2:25-32 "And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him. [26] And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ. [27] And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, [28] Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said, [29] Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word: [30] For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, [31] Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; [32] A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel."<br><br>What a light!<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 19:22-29 "The desire of a man is his kindness: and a poor man is better than a liar. [23] The fear of the LORD tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil. [24] A slothful man hideth his hand in his bosom, and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again. [25] Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge. [26] He that wasteth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is a son that causeth shame, and bringeth reproach. [27] Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge. [28] An ungodly witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity. [29] Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools."<br><br>A false witness is an ungodly witness. He or she will not stand on the day of judgment because God will judge us according to the blood of Jesus, the blood of God.<br>We will be judged according to what we did with the blood of God.<br><br>It is vital that we exit the blood of Adam into the blood of God, Jesus Christ. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the blood of God, as we have revealed Him from the first Adam. The only way to God is through the blood of God, in Christ.</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Jesus Christ is the second Adam. Jesus Christ is the blood of God.<br><br>The blood of God is a strong tower.<br><br>The righteous is a man or woman who is encapsulated by the blood of Jesus Christ, which means they are covered by the blood of Jesus Christ. This is the strong tower which the enemy has no means of penetrating.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 18:1-4 "Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. [2] A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself. [3] When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach. [4] The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook."<br><br>Remember, words begin as thought, and thought stems from the spirit. The Holy Spirit is a wellspring of wisdom. He is like a flowing brook.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 18:5-10 "It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment. [6] A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes. [7] A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul. [8] The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly. [9] He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster. [10] The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe."<br><br>The blood of Adam is weak, frail, full of sin, disease, and ultimately death.<br><br>The blood of God is strong. It has no sin or disease and overcomes even death.<br><br>The Name of the Lord is the blood of God; Jesus Christ.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 18:11-12 "The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit. [12] Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility."<br><br>Before the exaltation of the blood of God was his humility.<br><br>Philippians 2:7-9 "But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: [8] And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. [9] Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:"<br><br>Likewise, we must humble ourselves to die with Him, be buried with Him, so that we are resurrected with Him in victory.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 18:13-24 "He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him. [14] The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear? [15] The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge. [16] A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men. [17] He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him. [18] The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty. [19] A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle. [20] A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. [21] Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. [22] Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD. [23] The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly. [24] A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother."<br><br>Jesus Christ is this friend that sticks closer than a brother. We become one with him by exiting Adam's blood and entering into His blood. This is the friendship that God has made possible for every man or woman through simple faith.<br><br>Exit the weak tower and enter into the strong tower. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we have revealed him from the first Adam. The Solid Rock of safety, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

Before it is a thought, it is a spirit.<br><br>The Holy Spirit will put thoughts in the mind of the believer, and that thought will manifest as a word or deed.<br><br>Evil spirits will put thoughts in the mind of the unbeliever, and that also manifests as words and deeds<br><br>The difference is that the believer or righteous will manifest righteous words and deeds whereas the unbeliever or wicked will manifest wicked words and deeds.<br><br>God looks at our spirits.<br><br>Let's read:<br><br>Proverbs 17:1-3 "Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife. [2] A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren. [3] The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts."<br><br>&nbsp;Out of the heart proceeds every thought, idea, or plan.<br><br>Matthew 15:18-19 "But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. [19] For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:"<br><br>Some may say you are your thought. I say you are your spirit or your heart.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 17:4-10 "A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue. [5] Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished. [6] Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers. [7] Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince. [8] A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. [9] He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends. [10] A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool."<br><br>The wise, the man or woman who has exited Adam's blood into the blood of Christ, is inclined to the Word of God. The man or woman who remains in the blood of Adam through unbelief is not moved by even stripes. The Word of God is meaningless to them.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 17:11-22 "An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him. [12] Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly. [13] Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. [14] The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with. [15] He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. [16] Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it? [17] A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity. [18] A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend. [19] He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction. [20] He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. [21] He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow: and the father of a fool hath no joy. [22] A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones."<br><br>The merry heart is the heart that is molded, guided, and led by the Holy Spirit. It's like medicine to the spirit, mind, and body.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 17:23-27 "A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment. [24] Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth. [25] A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bare him. [26] Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity. [27] He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit."<br><br>Jesus Christ spared His words.<br><br>Matthew 27:13-14 "Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee? [14] And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly."<br><br>His silence spoke louder e than words. He let His blood do the speaking.<br><br>The wise man or woman who has exited the blood of Adam into the blood of Christ spares his or her word; they let the blood of Jesus speak for them.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 17:28 "Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding."<br><br>Let the blood of Jesus Christ speak on your behalf. BELIEVE and confess Christ the Redeemer as we've revealed Him from the first Adam. God looks at the heart, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

You have a physical body, you have a soul and a spirit.<br><br>The physical body is controlled by the brain. This is a physical entity in the head. Every part of the body is under the control of the brain. For example, if I touch your toe with a sharp object, you will feel pain because your brain is working. If your brain is dead, you will not feel pain if I touched you with that same sharp object. The brain controls every part of the body.<br><br>Your soul is controlled by a non-physical brain. This is called the mind. It works just like the brain. The only difference is it's not physical. It controls all the soul-senses, which are:<br>- your faith<br>- your conscience or sub-conscience<br>- your thoughts<br>- your feelings<br>- your memory<br><br><br>Your spirit is controlled by one of two spirits:<br>- the individual who has turned on their light and exited the blood of Adam is controlled by the Holy Spirit<br>- an individual who has turned off their light by unbelief and remains in the blood of Adam is controlled by an evil spirit.<br>&nbsp;<br>It is the Spirit that controls our thoughts and our actions. If we are led by the Holy Spirit, we will manifest righteousness because we'll have the &nbsp;mind of Christ.<br>If we are led by evil spirit, we will manifest unrighteousness because we will have the mind of Satan.<br><br>The Lord weighs the spirits.<br><br>Let us read:<br><br>Proverbs 16:1-2 "The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the LORD. [2] All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the LORD weigheth the spirits."<br><br>God looks at us from the dimension of the spirit, whether we are in line with him by the Holy Spirit or out of line with him under evil spirit.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 16:3 "Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established."<br><br>A word is simply an expression of a thought, and a thought is an expression of the spirit. Whatever spirit we are controlled by will establish our thoughts, which will lead to our words, actions, and behavior.<br><br>We continue our reading.<br><br>Proverbs 16:4-13 "The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. [5] Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished. [6] By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil. [7] When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. [8] Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right. [9] A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps. [10] A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment. [11] A just weight and balance are the LORD'S: all the weights of the bag are his work. [12] It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness. [13] Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him that speaketh right."<br><br>Righteous lips are the words of the individual under the control of the Holy Spirit.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 16:14-19 "The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it. [15] In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain. [16] How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver! [17] The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul. [18] Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. [19] Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud."<br><br>The humble spirit is the Holy Spirit. The proud spirit is the spirit of Satan, an evil spirit.<br><br>The man or woman who has exited the blood of Adam by faith in the blood of Jesus has a humble spirit because they are led by the Holy Spirit. On the contrary, the man or woman who remains in the blood of Adam through unbelief has a proud spirit because they are led by an evil spirit.<br><br>We continue our reading.<br><br>Proverbs 16:20-31 "He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he. [21] The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning. [22] Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly. [23] The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips. [24] Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. [25] There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. [26] He that laboureth laboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him. [27] An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. [28] A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends. [29] A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good. [30] He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass. [31] The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness."<br><br>Jesus Christ is the way of righteousness. We find him by turning on our light of faith and placing that light in the blood of Jesus, becoming one with him. One light, one blood. This is the way of righteousness.<br><br>We conclude our reading.<br><br>Proverbs 16:32-33 "He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. [33] The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the LORD."<br><br>A mighty man or woman is slow to anger when they are under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Fury, rage, and anger are manifestations of an evil spirit. We are led by one of either spirit.<br><br>Be led by the Holy Spirit. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the blood of God, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. God looks at our spirit, whether we are led by evil spirits or the Holy Spirit, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

It’s an abomination unto the Lord.<br>The blood of the Second Adam speaks for the believer. It’s a delight unto the Lord.<br><br>Let’s read:<br><br>Proverbs 15:1-8 “A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. [2] The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness. [3] The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. [4] A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit. [5] A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. [6] In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. [7] The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so. [8] The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.”<br><br>The wicked (the man or woman in the blood of Adam) prays and may fast or make sacrifices. They are an abomination the LORD.<br><br>The righteous (the man or woman in the blood of Christ) prays and may fast. This is a delight unto the LORD..<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 15:9 “The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.”<br><br>Jesus Christ is Righteousness. We follow after Righteousness by walking with Him in His blood.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 15:10-26 “Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die. [11] Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men? [12] A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise. [13] A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken. [14] The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness. [15] All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast. [16] Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith. [17] Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith. [18] A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife. [19] The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain. [20] A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother. [21] Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly. [22] Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. [23] A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it! [24] The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath. [25] The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow. [26] The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words.”<br><br>The thoughts of the wicked (the man or woman in the blood-seed of Adam) is an abomination unto the LORD.<br>But the thoughts of the righteous (the man or woman in the blood-seed of Christ) is pleasant unto the LORD because they have the mind of Christ.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 15:27-29 “He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. [28] The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things. [29] The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.”<br><br>The wicked (the man or woman who like Cain remains in the blood of Adam) is far from God. He or she is rejected, and so are his or her prayer requests.<br><br>The righteous (the man or woman who like Abel believes in the blood sacrifice) is united with God. He or she is accepted, and so are his or her prayer requests.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 15:30-33 “The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat. [31] The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. [32] He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding. [33] The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.”<br><br>That humility is always the blood sacrifice, the Cross.<br><br>Philippians 2:8 “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.”<br><br>We must likewise humbly die with Him on the Cross so we will be exalted with Him.<br><br>Philippians 2:9-11 “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”<br><br>His blood speaks louder than that of Abel.<br><br>Hebrews 12:24-26 “And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. [25] See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: [26] Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.”<br><br>Which blood is speaking for you? BELIEVE and confess Christ the Second Adam as we’ve revealed Him from the First Adam. Heaven and Earth shakes at His voice, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

His Name is Jesus Christ. He is the only deliverer of souls.<br><br>Any so called prophet, religious leader, or philosopher is false.<br><br>No religion can deliver a soul from hell because It requires a resurrection, which only comes through Jesus Christ.<br><br>John 11:25-26 “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: [26] And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?”<br><br>No prophet, religious leader or philosopher has made the claim to be the resurrection and life. They all die as common men.<br><br>There is only one that rose from the dead. He is Jesus Christ the True and faithful Witness.<br><br>Let’s read:<br><br>Proverbs 14:1-5 “Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands. [2] He that walketh in his uprightness feareth the LORD: but he that is perverse in his ways despiseth him. [3] In the mouth of the foolish is a rod of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them. [4] Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox. [5] A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.”<br><br>Let Jesus Christ be true and every religion a lie.<br><br>If you do not have Jesus Christ dwelling in your heart, you have a lie dwelling in your heart.<br><br>If you are not abiding in the blessed blood of Jesus Christ, you are abiding in the cursed blood of Adam.<br><br>Genesis 3:17-19 “And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; [18] Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; [19] In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.”<br><br>When the bloodline is cursed, the whole generation is cursed.<br><br>When the bloodline is blessed, the whole generation is blessed.<br><br>The bloodline of the First Adam is cursed with death and hell.<br>The bloodline of Jesus Christ the Second Adam is blessed with resurrection and life eternal.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 14:6-9 “A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth. [7] Go from the presence of a foolish man, when thou perceivest not in him the lips of knowledge. [8] The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit. [9] Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.”<br><br>The fool mocks at sin for he or she comprehends not that the wages of sin is always death (separation from God).<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 14:10-25 “The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy. [11] The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish. [12] There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. [13] Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness. [14] The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself. [15] The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going. [16] A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident. [17] He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated. [18] The simple inherit folly: but the prudent are crowned with knowledge. [19] The evil bow before the good; and the wicked at the gates of the righteous. [20] The poor is hated even of his own neighbour: but the rich hath many friends. [21] He that despiseth his neighbour sinneth: but he that hath mercy on the poor, happy is he. [22] Do they not err that devise evil? but mercy and truth shall be to them that devise good. [23] In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury. [24] The crown of the wise is their riches: but the foolishness of fools is folly. [25] A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.”<br><br>A true witness is the man or woman who brings Jesus Christ to others. Any other witness is a lie even if it claims to witness God.<br><br>John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”<br><br>You can call it Allah witness, Buddha witness, Confucius witness, Elohim witness or Jehovah witness. If the witness is not presenting the blood of Jesus Christ as the only way to life, it’s a deceitful witness.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 14:26-35 “In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge. [27] The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. [28] In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince. [29] He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly. [30] A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones. [31] He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor. [32] The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope in his death. [33] Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding: but that which is in the midst of fools is made known. [34] Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.”<br><br>There is none righteous.<br><br>Romans 3:9-12,14 “What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; [10] As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: [11] There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. [12] They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. [14] Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:”<br><br>Because all are born locked &nbsp;in the blood-seed of Adam. &nbsp;<br><br>The righteous is the man or woman born again out of the blood-seed of Adam into the blood-seed of Jesus Christ.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 14:35 “The king's favour is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him that causeth shame.”<br><br>God has favored Jesus Christ the Wise Servant and all those in Christ.<br><br>Escape the bloodline of Adam. BELIEVE and confess Christ the bloodline of God as we’ve revealed Him from the First Adam. God has One True Witness, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>

[2] A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence. [3] He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction. [4] The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat. [5] A righteous man hateth lying: but a wicked man is loathsome, and cometh to shame. [6] Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner. [7] There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.”<br><br>All true riches come from God. Riches is not what we own on earth but what we have in Heaven. Those are the true treasures.<br><br>Matthew 19:21 “Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.”<br><br>Following Jesus Christ is following riches. Following anything else is following things that will not last.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 13:8 “The ransom of a man's life are his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke.”<br><br>Jesus Christ is the true ransom from heaven that came to unite men and women with God the Treasure of life.<br><br>The unbeliever has no concept of this truth, therefore remains poor eternally.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 13:9 “The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.”<br><br>The light of the righteous is the light that has escaped Adam’s blood into the blood of Jesus Christ.<br><br>The lamp of the wicked is the light turned off by unbelief, &nbsp;remains in the blood of Adam. The lamp of the wicked shall soon be caught up in a nightmare (hell) as soon as the blood of Adam expires.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 13:10-20 “Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom. [11] Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase. [12] Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life. [13] Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded. [14] The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. [15] Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard. [16] Every prudent man dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open his folly. [17] A wicked messenger falleth into mischief: but a faithful ambassador is health. [18] Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured. [19] The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul: but it is abomination to fools to depart from evil. [20] He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.”<br><br>Jesus Christ is the Wise Man. He that walks with Christ by faith is wise.<br><br>Satan is the foolish man. He that walks with &nbsp;Satan in unbelief is foolish.<br><br>We are either walking with Christ in His blood or with Satan in the blood of Adam. We cannot be in both blood.<br><br>We continue our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 13:21-24 “Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repayed. [22] A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just. [23] Much food is in the tillage of the poor: but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment. [24] He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.”<br><br>Love chastens.<br><br>Hebrews 12:5-10 “And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: [6] For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. [7] If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? [8] But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. [9] Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? [10] For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.”<br><br>We are chastened because we are sons and daughters of Holiness.<br><br>We conclude our reading:<br><br>Proverbs 13:25 “The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want.”<br><br>There is only one thing that will satisfy a man or woman, and that is the ever presence of God the Holy Spirit. This is Who is available to the righteous.<br><br>The wicked (unbeliever) will always be in need and never come to satisfaction.<br><br>In Christ we are heirs of God and co-heirs of Jesus Christ.<br><br>Eye have not seen not ear heard what God has in store for those who love Him.<br><br>Walk with Christ the Wisdom of God. BELIEVE and confess Christ the riches of God as we’ve revealed Him from the First Adam. Your ransom from heaven to earth, in Christ!</div></div></div></div></div></section>]]></content:encoded>
