OPEN LETTER TO ALL MODERN DAY CHRISTENDOM




I like the zeal that you have for seeking God's Word, but you do it with a lack of knowledge. You are throwing out everything that the Lord said to do; get circumcised, keep the dietary law, keep His commandments, keep His Sabbath Days. Every word which proceeds out of the mouth of God is Law; Matthew 4:4.


Now to the subject of the dietary law, which you say is no more, because the Lord changed His mind and now says that you can eat anything all you have to do is pray over it. I want to ask you, do you know when the Dietary Law began? I know that you said that it was given to the Israelites in the days of Moses; Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 and that the law was for "them". However, how about Noah? The Lord told him what beasts were clean and unclean, did you know that;
Genesis 6:17-20, Genesis 7:1-2.


The Law of the clean and unclean beasts; that which may be eaten, was given in the days of Noah. All this was said by the Lord unto Noah in the days of the flood. I want you to show me where the Lord has said that you can eat anything.


In
Leviticus 11:43-47, the Lord says, "...you shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing or make yourselves unclean, but be holy and sanctify yourselves and be holy; for I am Holy. And this is the law of the beasts and the fowl, and every creature that moveth in the waters and that creepeth upon the earth, to make a difference between the unclean and the clean which He put in the Ark with Noah. The beasts that may be eaten and the beasts that may not be eaten.


Now, I ask you, if you are not keeping the law of the beasts (Dietary Law) and are eating whatever you want, "Are you Holy?" Is your Church Holy? Read
Isaiah 65:2-5; Isaiah 66:17. Now, I ask you, do you eat pork and go to church?


I see that you quoted Acts 10th chapter, and referencing it as one of the places that the Lord said that you could eat anything. However, this chapter has nothing to do with food, it is about Peter having been given the "keys to the kingdom"; being sent to teach another nation the word God sent to the children of Israel;
Acts 10:36: that God is no respecter of person and that you should not call any man common or unclean.


Have you not read where the Lord does not change;
Malachi 3:6, Hebrews 13:8? So, the words that the Lord spoke to Adam, Noah, and Moses are still good to this day, or are you calling the Lord a liar?


I also see that you have cast off the law of the circumcision, the covenant that God made with Abraham,
Genesis 17:9-13, and his seed after him for an everlasting covenant. Wait just a minute!! Did the Lord say for everlasting? Here again, you say the Lord changed His mind, and the same thing with the Sabbath day.


The Lord changed it from the seventh day of the week to the first day of the week. Who is it that is blaspheming God's Word? The Lord says those who blaspheme against the Holy Ghost (His Words) shall not be forgiven in this world or the world to come;
Matthew 12:31-32.

How about the one where the Lord died on "good Friday" and was raised from the dead on Sunday, however, the Lord said He would be in the grave for three days and three nights;
Matthew 12:39-40. Go figure that one out!


I guess you also say that the Lord's Sabbath days mentioned in Leviticus 23 are no more. Even though the Lord says these are His feasts;
Leviticus 23:1-2, not the "Jews feasts". The Lord also says that we shall "do them for ever throughout your generations"; Leviticus 23:21, 31, 41. But, once again, you say the Lord has changed. I will tell you this, once you understand the 23rd chapter of Leviticus, you will have an understanding of God's Plan.


As for the Lords High Days, the Passover is this month, March 29th at evening and the following day, March 30th, beginning at evening is the first night of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Services (class) will be held for the Passover a 7:30 pm, March 29, 2010, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread will be held March 31st, at noon. Come check out the Lord's Sabbath Days, because the Lord says that His Sabbaths Days are a sign between Him and His people, which He has sanctified;
Ezekiel, 20:12, 19-20. I know that in all your self-understanding of the Scriptures that you probably have never kept any of the Lords Feasts depicted in Leviticus 23.


Now, let me see if I have a clear understanding about what you say we do not have to observe anymore, according to your understanding of the Scriptures. We don't have to keep the Law of the clean and unclean beasts, which may be eaten, even though the Lord spoke this law to Noah, Moses and made mention to Isaiah that people who break His dietary Laws provoke Him continually to His face;
Isaiah 65:2-3.


These are those who have their own thoughts, but the Lord will come and render His anger against those which sanctify themselves behind the tree that is in the midst of the garden, saying it is alright to eat swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse. You know, all the things that were in the curtain in
Acts 10:11-12.


Since you have read this why don't you get some of your friends together and have a feast on eating the mouse, because you quoted
Acts 10:15 and according to you, "That which God has cleansed call not common", so now everything is clean.


However, that must not be so, because the Lord said He will come and the slain of the Lord shall be many, now this is future. The doctrine that you speak is from the "tree in the midst of the garden". You know, the one which Adam and Eve ate from, after they were told "you shall not surely die";
Genesis 3:4. Where are they?


You say all we have to do is pray over everything, but those of us that believe and know the truth, do separate our meats through prayer;
1 Timothy 4:1-5, the clean from the unclean. As for the circumcision this covenant was made with Abraham and to him alone; Isaiah 51:1-2, and the Scripture says if you be Abraham's seed, you would do the things that Abraham did; John 8:39. However, you observe nothing which the Lord has said to do, so what "Jesus" is this that you are talking about? It must be the one Paul is talking about in 2 Corinthians 11:4.


I am certain that in your heart you believe that you are doing right, but I can't help but think that you are one of those that the Lord is speaking about in
Isaiah 8:20, those who speak not according to this word, the Law (Old Testament) and to the Testimony (New Testament). It is because there is no light (truth) in them, they have transgressed the laws; changed the ordinance; broken the everlasting covenant; Isaiah 24:5.


So, if I were you I would think seriously about what I say in reference to God's Word, because you certainly fit this prophecy (
Isaiah 24:5). Please read 1 Chronicles 16:14-17. How is it that people think they know the Word of God when no man has instructed them; Acts 8:26-31. I hope that after you read this that you do not harden your heart against what you have read in this letter; Hebrews 4:7.


Come join us on the Sabbath and on the Passover, and Feast of Unleavened Bread. I know that you probably have never observed these high days, because you have been lied to all these years. These Feast days and the Sabbath day point to the return of Jesus Christ. Most people that read these scriptures,
Colossians 2:16-17, think that it says that you can eat anything, but what it is really saying is that we keep these Sabbath days as a memorial to remind us of things to come.


I know you may have some idea about the seventh day, but what about the Eighth day, spoken of in
Leviticus 23:39, or are you saying that the Old Testament is no more? There is much that I want to tell you about the God of Israel, Jesus Christ, so that you may learn how to become a part of the commonwealth of Israel; Ephesians 2:11-13, 19-20.


Before we go any further, I must tell you that I am an Israelite out of the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Israel), and I am a member of God's house, the house of Jacob. Like Paul, I magnify my office;
Romans 11:13. God has not spoken to any other nation but Israel; Psalms 147:19-20; Amos 3:2 and all of the Prophets were Israelites; Amos 2:11. As it was then so it is now. We (Israelites) have all the answers, because the Lord gave everything to Israel; Romans 9:4-5. When Christ came He came as an Israelite, but being physical Israel is not enough you must also be spiritual Israel. You see, all Israel is not Israel, because they keep not His word; Romans 9:6-7.


I just want to let you know that we know who we are and what our job is: to teach all of the sons of Adam about the God of Israel, we are the Priest,
Exodus 19:5-6. Come join us at The Israel of God; Galatians 6:16.

TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL, SERPENT, DEVIL, DRAGON, SATAN AND LUCIFER ARE ONE AND THE SAME









The majority of people do not know that the Lord speaks in parables; Psalms 78:1-2, Matthew 13:34-35. Even from the beginning; in the book of Genesis.


When the Lord created man from the dust of the ground and “breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul”, Genesis 2:7, and the Lord commanded the man saying, of every tree in the garden thou mayest freely eat, Genesis 2:16.

However, there were two trees in the garden that did not grow out of the ground, Genesis 2:9; the Tree of Life and the Tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil. Now, the Lord is speaking in parables when He is talking about the two trees in the midst of the garden. We must work out our own salvation with fear and trembling; Philippians 2:12.

So we must search the scriptures to find out about the two trees in the midst of the Garden of Eden: the Tree of Life and the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil. It is taught, by many false prophets, that the tree of knowledge Good and Evil is an apple tree; they teach that the fruit which Adam and Eve ate was an apple. This is the beginning of their false doctrine, and if you follow this line of reasoning through, then what kind of tree is the Tree of Life, which was also in the midst of the garden?

Do you know that the so-called “Shepherds/Preachers” of today have even lied about man’s creation? When the Lord created Adam He breathed into his nostrils and Adam became a living soul. Here the Lord is speaking clearly and not in a parable as when He was speaking of the “trees in the midst of the garden”.

But the “Preachers” of today teach that man is created with a body, soul and spirit. It is evident that they do not understand the word “became” a living soul when the breath of Life was breathed into his nostrils. They certainly do not understand that before God breathed into Adam’s nostrils, he was a dead soul. If they do not understand that Adam was made a living soul; 1 Corinthians 15:45, then they can not understand the parable in the third chapter of Genesis.

Turn to Genesis 3:1, we read where the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field, which the Lord God made. Now, I ask, when was the last time you heard a snake talk? This most certainly must be a parable. So what we have to do is search the scriptures to find out who this serpent is.

Turn to Revelation 12:7-9, where you read that there was a war in heaven: Michael and His angels fought against the dragon and his angels, and prevailed not, and the dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the Devil and Satan was cast out of heaven with his angels into the Earth. What is he called in verse :9 The Great Dragon, Serpent, Devil and Satan. Now, we know that the serpent talking to the woman is none other than Satan the Devil. Before he was cast out of heaven, he was one of the morning stars that was there when the Lord laid the foundations of the Earth, Job 38:3-7, when all the stars (Angels) sang together for there was only joy in heaven among the sons of God. There was no sin among the angels as they created the creation as they were commanded; Psalms 104:4, 30.

They were perfect in the day that they were created, but then iniquity was found in one of the anointed cherubs; Ezekiel 28:14-15. We see in Isaiah 14:12-14, that the anointed cherub which was cast out was called Lucifer, Son of the Morning. He was one of the “morning stars”, until he desired to be like the Most High, to reign over the Stars of God (Angels) in heaven and sit in Jerusalem on Earth; Psalms 48:2.

Now, we know the iniquity that was in the Devil is that he Wants to be like the Most High God; Ezekiel 28:1-3, 11-16, we also know that the Serpent in the Garden is an angel whose name used to Lucifer, but now is called the Great Dragon, The Devil and Satan.

Let’s turn back to Genesis 3:2-3, here we see the woman telling the Serpent (Satan) that they may eat of the fruit of the trees of the Garden: but the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the Garden, God hath said , “You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it.” So, what is this tree that you shall not touch, let alone eat the fruit of? It has been said that the fruit that they ate was an apple. So the tree in the midst of the garden must be an apple tree.

Let us take a look at this tree, turn to Ezekiel 31:1-18, here we read that the Word of the Lord came to Ezekiel telling him to speak unto Pharaoh, King of Egypt. This Pharaoh is described as a tree and was in the garden of God; Ezekiel 31:8, and all the trees in the Garden envied him; Ezekiel 31:9. This tree that is called Pharaoh made nations shake at the sound of his fall, :16, was in the Garden of God. So this King of Egypt is no ordinary man.

Turn to Daniel 10:10-13, here we read that the Angel Gabriel was sent to Daniel to show him the meaning of a vision, but was held up for three weeks by the Prince of the Kingdom of Persia: But, lo, Michael, one of the Chief Princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the Kings of Persia.

Now, how can an ordinary man hold the Angel, Gabriel, prisoner for three weeks and have to receive help from Michael the Archangel; Michael the Angel that fought in the war in heaven; Revelation 12:7-9, and cast the Dragon, (Lucifer) and his angels out.

In Ezekiel 28:1-3, we read the Word of the Lord came to Ezekiel telling him about the Prince of Tyrus; how the Prince of Tyrus said he was a god and sits in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas, yet thou art a man and not God. Is this really a man? This man is “wiser than Daniel and there is no secret that they can hide from thee”, :3.


Skip down to verses, :12-16, here we read that the King of Tyrus was perfect in beauty and full of wisdom, :12. Now what man do you know that was perfect in beauty? This King of Tyrus was in the Garden of Eden. Think about what you have just read. How can this be since Adam and Eve were the only ones in the Garden of Eden? They did not have their first child till after they were driven out from the Garden of Eden, Genesis 3:23-24, Genesis 4:1.

So who is this King of Tyrus which was in the Garden of Eden? Ezekiel 28:13 tells us that this man was created. Now, think for a moment how many men have been created? Just one, Adam, all the rest came from woman, they were born; even Eve you might say was born because she came out of Adam.

Let’s continue reading, verse :14 tells us that the King of Tyrus is the Anointed Cherub that covereth and he was upon the Holy Mountain of God, simply put, he was in God’s government. He was perfect in the day that he was created till iniquity was found in him, verse 15. He was cast out of the Mountain of God (Government), for his sin.

Now, we know that this tree in the garden is also called Pharaoh King of Egypt; Ezekiel 31:2, 8-9, 16-18 and in Ezekiel 28:1-3, 12-13, he is called Prince or King of Tyrus, in Daniel he is called the Prince or King of Persia. We will find out as we travel through the Holy Scriptures that the tree in the Garden of Eden has other titles and names that he is called by.

Turn back to Genesis 3:1 and let’s take a closer look at the serpent that is more cunning than any beast of the field. We know that this Serpent is not really a snake, so let’s see what he really looks like. Pastors of today portray him as a snake wrapped around an apple tree in the garden, a devil with a red suit; long tail; carrying a pitch fork and ruling over hell.

Let us detour for a moment and go read what the anointed cherub that covereth, whose name was Lucifer, looks like. In Ezekiel 1:3-11; Ezekiel 10:8-22; Revelation 4:6-8, we read that Cherubs have four faces, six wings with eyes all over, hands under their wings, and calves feet and sometimes are called beast instead of Angels; Genesis 3:1, Revelation 4:6-8. They are also called Stars; Job 38:6-7, Angels are also called men; Genesis 19:1-5, Daniel 9:21; they are also called Sons of God; Job 1:6-7, Job 2:1. In Isaiah 6:1-3, they are called Seraphims.

Now, we know what the Serpent (Satan) really looks like, we also found out that he walks up and down in the Earth. That should tell you something, snakes do not walk, and they don’t talk. Back to Genesis 2:16-17; we read that the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “of every tree of the Garden thou mayest freely eat. But of the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shall not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof, thou shall surely die”. We just read what the Lord God said, that disobedience brings death.

In Genesis 3:1-4, the Devil (Serpent) and the woman are having a conversation about what the Lord God had said to Adam in Genesis 2:16-17. Then the Serpent said to the woman, “You shall not surely die…”. Before we read any further, let’s look at Genesis 2:25; here we read that Adam and Eve were both naked and were not ashamed.

Back to Genesis 3:4-5. As we continue reading we hare the Devil telling the woman that when she eats the fruit from the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil, that their eyes would be opened and “Ye shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil. Wait a minute, did we just read the Devil (Serpent) told the woman a lie, that she would not die? I understand why the Lord called the Devil (Serpent) a liar and murderer in John 8:44, because he speaks of his own.

Let’s continue, in Genesis 3:6 the woman did eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil and gave to her husband and he did eat. The thing that amazes me is that they already knew good and evil, they knew that if they ate the fruit from the Tree of knowledge of good and evil that they would die. This is an evil that would come upon all, Ecclesiastes 9:3, and if they did not eat from the Tree they would not die.

Once again, it has been said that the fruit was an apple. Well, let’s just find out what kind of fruit it was that they ate. In Hosea 10:13, we will read this one verse. The Lord said in, verse :13, we have eaten the fruit of lies, because we trust in our own way instead of trusting in the Lord.
Back to Genesis 3:7, after they ate the fruit their eyes were opened and they knew that they were naked they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons. Then they heard the Lord walking in the Garden and they hid themselves from Him, :8-11. Remember that we read in Genesis 2:25, that they were naked and not ashamed. But now we see them covering themselves and hiding from the Lord when He came into the Garden. When the Lord called to Adam, saying, “Where art thou?”, Adam told Him that he had hidden himself because, “I heard your voice in the Garden and I was afraid because I was naked”.


Pay close attention to what the Lord asked Adam; :11, the Lord said, “Who told you that you were naked? Someone told them that they were naked—Satan. The Lord asked, “Hast thou eaten of the Tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat of?”

Now we know that the fruit that they ate from the tree—which was Satan—were the words (lies) that he spoke to them. He told them about being naked. He also told them they would be like God if they listened to him. They ate his words. That is the fruit of lies that they ate.

In John 8:44 we read where Jesus is talking about the Devil. He was a murderer and liar from the beginning, because he killed the whole human race by telling the woman a lie, saying, if she listened to him they would not die, Genesis 3:4, but be as God knowing good and evil; 3:5.

So you see the Devil did as he has always done, he gave them a little bit of truth and a great big lie, to make it desirable; Genesis 3:6. The part truth is they would be as God knowing good and evil. When we turn to Genesis 3:21-22 we read that after Adam and his wife knew they were naked and were ashamed, the Lord made coats of skins, and clothed them.

Now, my question is, where did these coats of skin come from? When Adam and his wife disobeyed (sinned) death came into play; some animal had to die, so that they would have coats of skin to wear. Genesis 3:22, the Lord said behold the man is become as one of us to know good and evil. Is this not what the Serpent told the woman in Genesis 3:5? So, the Lord drove man out of the Garden, so that he could not eat from the Tree of Life, which is the Lord; Genesis 3:23-24. You cannot drink of the cup of the Lord and the cup of Devils; you cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table and of the table of Devils. If man had eaten from the Tree of Life he would have learned how to live forever. So the Lord drove the man out and place Cherubims to keep (guard) the way of the Tree of Life (the Lord). So now, I ask do you know what the Tree of Life and its fruit is?

After a careful reading of the third chapter of Genesis we now know by going to other Scriptures, that the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and its fruit is none other than the Devil and the words (lies) that he spoke and the different names that he is called by.

BORN OF THE WATER, BORN OF THE SPIRIT




I hear people say that they are “Born Again”. I ask, “How so?” They say they are a new person because they now go to church and are saved. Well, that all sounds good, but let’s just see what “Born Again” really means. Turn to John 3:1-4 . Here we read Jesus’ telling Nicodemus, “…except a man be born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God. Well everyone that says they are born again should be able to see the Kingdom of God.



Let’s talk about being born. Everyone that is here now was born into the family of man, that was a physical act. Now when you say you are “Born Again” a second time seems to me there should be a physical change. Well, let’s continue with the conversation between Nicodemus and Jesus; John 3:4-8. After Jesus said you must be born again to see the kingdom of God, Nicodemus knew he was talking about a physical change, because, he asked how can a man be born again, when he is old can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb, and be born again. This question that Nicodemus asked Jesus seems to have gone by the majority of Christendom, which says they are “Born Again”, because they have no physical change. They say that when they started going to church that they were "saved and born again", because they don’t smoke or drink and have changed their way of living. I can’t say that they are keeping God’s commandments. The reason I say this is because of what Jesus tells Nicodemus in John 3:5, “Unless you are born of the water and of the Spirit, you can not enter into the Kingdom of God”. So, what is this water that you must be born of? And, did you notice that He said you also must be born of the Spirit. What Spirit is this?



Well, let’s travel through the pages of the Holy Scriptures and find out what is the true meaning of being Born Again. In John 3:6-7, you know that it is a physical change because Jesus said that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit. However, before you can be born of the Spirit, which is a physical change, you must be born of the water. You must be born by the Word of God, 1 Peter 1:23. The Word of God is the "Water" that Jesus is speaking of, Isaiah 55:1-3, this is the "Water" that you can drink of freely. For whosoever will, come take of the water of life freely, Revelation 3:17. Did you notice the keyword hear? For you have to HEAR the Word of God, which are the Words of Truth, James 1:17-18, 21, and DO THEM. The Lord will wash you with the water of the Word if you are in His Church (Israel), Ephesians 5:25-27, because the Lord will blot out your transgressions and wash you from your iniquity, Psalms 51:1-3, 7, 10.



So now, I ask those who say that they are “Born Again”, how is this so, if you have not been washed with the Word of God? The Lord said He would make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, Jeremiah 31:31; Hebrews 8:8-12; Hebrews 10:16, 22, and would wash us with pure water, if we draw near with a true heart. Did you notice that He said He would wash the house of Israel with the Word! He would put His laws in their inward parts and write them in their hearts; Jeremiah 31:33.



So, if you are "Born Again" I can ask you about the commandments that God gave Israel, in Exodus 20. Such as, “What is the fourth commandment?” Can you answer without looking it up, because His laws are “written on your heart”. If you are born again (of the Spirit of God—His Word), then you know that you have to become a part of the commonwealth of Israel, Ephesians 2:11-13, 18-19, the household of God, and you are keeping His commandments, such as Exodus 20:8-11, which is the fourth commandment to keep and observe the Sabbath Day. What day of the week is the Lord’s Day? The seventh day of the week is the Lord Sabbath Day, not Sunday the first day of the week, which most so-called “born again Christens” call the Lord’s Day.



So, I ask “How are they born again if they observe the first day of the week as the “Sabbath” day?” I also notice that these Christens eat whatever they want, not observing the animals, fish, and fowl that may be eaten and those which may not be eaten, Leviticus 11:1-47. Today’s Christens say all you have to do is pray over your pork chops, ham, catfish, shrimp, and lobster, etc., etc., because the Dietary Law is no more. They use Scriptures like Acts 10:1-16 to say this means you can now eat anything. However, that was not what Peter’s vision was about. Let’s look at another of their most favorite Scriptures which they like to quote, or should I say misquote, 1 Timothy 4:4-5, which is not talking about food and what you can eat.


When they are in church on Sunday cooking breakfast sausage and bacon, selling church dinners and have pork and catfish in their menus, they have no idea that they are fulfilling prophecies of Scripture when they say they are "born again" and have become saved sanctified, blessed and highly favored, Isaiah 65:2-5; Isaiah 66:17. When they were born again, what were they born into? Because they eat swine’s flesh behind one tree in the midst of the garden, which is the Tree of Knowledge of Goof and Evil, Genesis 2:9, 17. The Word is the Living Water that can make you clean, John 15:1-3.




The “Shepherds” have not fed the flock but feed themselves, Ezekiel 34:2-3, 9, 18-19, they have fouled the waters, (the Word) with their feet and have caused the people to drink polluted water, instead of the Living Waters from the Lord, Jeremiah 17:13. So when they say they are “born again”, ask them if they know about being born of the water! If you are born of the water then you understand about being born of the Spirit, and you are waiting for the appointed time to be Born Again. When you are physically Born Again you will receive a Spiritual body. We are now flesh and blood, born into the family of man. However, we are patiently waiting for our change, to be born of the Spirit. You would know this if you are already born of the water (Word), because you must be born of the Spirit to see the Kingdom of God. That is what Jesus told Nicodemus in John 3:3; nor can you enter the Kingdom of God, John 3:5. Flesh and blood can not inherit the Kingdom of God, 1 Corinthians 15:50.



Most so-called, “Christens” think that the Kingdom of God is Jesus’ Kingdom. However, it is the Father’s Kingdom that will come down to us, out of heaven, Revelation 21:2, after Jesus returns with His Armies and sets up His Kingdom, Revelation 19:11-16, to rule the Earth for a thousand years with His Saints, Revelation 20:4-6.



Did you notice as you were reading that this is the first resurrection when you can truly say that you are Born Again, because you have been changed or translated just like Enoch? Hebrews 11:5, that you should not see death. But what of those who have died, while claiming that they were “born again”? Were they born of the Water, so that when the Lord calls will they hear? Job knew that he had to be changed, Job 14:14-15 and he knew that the Lord would call him and that He would see the Lord in the latter day, Job 19:24-27. Jesus said the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God and they that hear shall live, John 5:25. This is the first resurrection and it is for those that died having been born of the Water (Word), that they may hear the voice of God when He calls.




Let’s take a look at Jesus, He was born into the family of man, Luke 1:26-35; He became flesh and blood, John 1:14; He was called the Son of Man, Luke 6:5. His was His first birth, He became God’s Son when He rose from the dead, Romans 1:3-4, this was His second birth—that He is the firstborn of the dead, from among many brethren, Colossians 1:12-18; Romans 8:29. He is the beginning of the Father’s Creation, Revelation 3:14.




So now I ask, “If you say you are going to heaven what Water/Word were you born from?”, because everyone that has lived and died are in the grave, not in heaven, no part of them, spirit, soul, or body. When you are born of the Water, then you are full of the Lord’s Spirit, which is His Words, John 6:63 and when you are born of the Spirit your body will change, 1 Corinthians 15:46-49.

Peace
