believe God’s truths and do His will, and other machiavellian innovations of men. For millenniums, most of the infantile, ignorant elect spirits on earth have worshipped the fake spiritual guides whom God’s Holy Spirit has clearly testified against, because those elect have walked according to their flesh and have suppressed their loving spirits. And, throughout history, the devil has kept most elect in this sad condition through his fake churches, through the spiritual harlotry practised by those hypocrites. So, if Stephen were alive today, he would say exactly the same thing to today’s churches that he said to the fake church in about AD 30: “You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit! As your fathers did, so you do” (Acts 7:51, WEB). The last two millenniums of churches committing their unforgivable sins of slandering the Holy Spirit of our Messiah and God, just as they did in the first century, have been correctly answered and rebuked many times throughout history. So it is about time the elect woke up and stopped serving as dupes of the devil. The season for the elect to reject the non-elect and repent into the truths of God has come.
Now Jesus came to establish an entirely new kind of priesthood, without human heads, where He serves as the only Head of every individual man, where multiple humble teaching elders teach and judge rightly for the good of all, working alongside their other equal sibling in the family of God.
The time has come for labourers in God’s Word simply help their fellow labourers express God-like, just, equitable, responsible and pure love in a way that fulfills God’s written Law, just as our God Jesus intended us to do. For this is the salvation He purchased for us on His cross. Jesus came to make each mature disciple serve God even better than Moses and Samuel did. And both of those true prophets refused to be esteemed as rulers. Neither wanted to be worshipped as human gods who had some kind of delusional “right” to lord it over an “inferior” people. The entire Bible, both the Old Covenant and New Covenant Scriptures, illustrate God’s loving and just attributes, then provide us with examples of men and women who esteemed and served Him in right worship, that is, in their spirits and in truth. Now let the elect become aware of this, and live in joy for their loving Creator.
As we see in the writings of Moses and Samuel, God alone is to be the High King of literally all individuals on earth. God has never wanted His elect to be ruled by non-elect despots, nor His elect to rule as gods over the non-elect. The entire Bible teaches the perfectly feasible and proven system of all human beings cooperating as equals under God, to build a free and responsible life for all, by justly loving all whom the sphere of one’s own life might touch. Throughout God’s Word, we see how the greatest and most useful among us were to be the wisest and most sacrificially loving servants of all, those who see themselves as infantile sinners who are entirely dependent upon God, and who see all others as equal sinners with equal rights and equal value in the eyes of God. It is a totally demonic lie that every society need a psychopathic wanna-be god to keep order by practising approved humanistic kinds of violence, deception, manipulation, plotting and oppression, just like the kings of Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome. All those Satanic myths tell us that we need to be saved by governments who form and rule hierarchical societies through terrorism—with extreme penalties for the small sins of the “inferiors,” but absolutely no penalties for the extreme crimes of
“superiors.” Yet all those ways have always and invariably led to mass murdering and unspeakable sins, to immeasurable chaos, destruction and death. So we must cast those lies into hell where they belong. The only salvation that the Creator of all existence offers us is to walk by our spirits in the truths He has revealed both in His creations and in His Word, as just and loving equal souls in Him.
From the books of Moses to the Revelation, our God Jesus revealed that He wants each man’s spirit to seek His Holy Spirit all day, every day, humbly heeding His just and loving words, relying on His power alone for all that each one’s love hopes to accomplish. Jesus came to awaken elect spirits, to call and equip the elect for their Father’s works on earth, to personally lead each individual into Page 887
one’s own destiny, where each elect one’s destiny is to serve His creations through God-like love.
From the day an elect soul is born on earth, God’s Holy Spirit is personally teaching, training, counselling, rebuking and commanding that elect one’s spirit, so that elect one will begin to fulfill one’s eternal destiny. And this is the only kind of salvation described in the entire Bible. There is no other kind of salvation that has ever been offered by God, neither while we live on earth nor when we stand before Him on the final judgment day. Through unmerited grace and love, our oldest Brother and Father promised to teach and train the spirits of each man and woman for eternal service in heaven, and this eternal service begins by learning to serve God’s creations on earth, including our siblings in humankind. None of the elect were ever meant to become lords, but servants, just as our God Jesus is the greatest Servant of all. And each learns to face suffering, adversity and death, just like Jesus did, in order to bring us our salvation. For our physical losses are opportunities to grow in our spirits. Our pains and failures of our flesh teach us to walk more according to the minds of our spirits and less according to the minds of our flesh, as well as to rely upon God’s Holy Spirit and upon each another, so our spirits will get to know and love our God and our siblings more each day.
This biblical kind of priestly life is vastly different from anything the non-elect humanists have ever experienced or imagined. They have never seen anything like it in their entire lives, and never want to see anything like it, since that kind of life would nullify all their selfish ambitions, loveless hopes and psychopathic dreams. Yet there have always been some elect who have found that kind of life, even in the earliest of times, and throughout history, since the days of Adam. And God explicitly revealed that this was the kind of life He wanted the Jews, the Old Covenant priesthood of Israel, to live when He gave His Law to them on Mount Sinai. His Book clearly, albeit symbolically, described this kind of priestly life, as well as the loving, free, responsible and just kingdom of the Messiah’s New Covenant priesthood. All His words, when honestly interpreted according to His own examples of how He Himself interpreted them, were meant to help His elect teach and judge in a priestly life.
God Himself granted His Old Covenant priesthood many examples of His patient ways, where He taught and clearly warned sinners. God spent years, sometimes even centuries, teaching His ways to all the nations of the earth, and warning them to cease from their unjust ways, before He allowed His just punishments fall upon them. God has always provided sinners with a chance to gain enough of a knowledge of the truth, along with enough time to learn that truth, before He sentenced them to their destruction. For His just ways, as well as the unjust ways of Satan, are illustrated everywhere in His creations, and every human spirit is able to see what is right, even the core loving attributes of God Himself, written on every atomic particle and in every behaviour of every plant and animal existing all around them. Then there is the fact that all those sinners could easily witness the suffering and deaths they caused through their lies and sins, as well as the joy and abundant lives of love produced through true justice, equity and love. Finally, all the world witnessed the almighty Creator God, the Holy Spirit who maintains all that exists, enter a body of human flesh to walk among us, to openly demonstrate the life of a sinless teaching elder, to show us how the people must be taught, healed, protected and judged. Yet, even after clearly seeing how all this was so radically different from the Satanic, hierarchical, unjust, arrogant world order, most of the world chose that devil’s destructive ways. And, until Jesus came, that despotic system became the only system most souls had ever known. So they rejected God’s system and stayed in that demonic system. In fact, it would take two more millenniums before the elect even began to fully grasp how God’s kind of loving priesthood and just kingdom could function. Nevertheless, His just, equitable loving kingdom will soon prevail throughout the earth, where our God Jesus is the only Head of every individual man and woman.
Page 888
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
The learning curve for God’s responsibly loving priesthood and just kingdom is steep, long and difficult. It is not nearly as simple as Satan’s system of helping his favourite deluded psychopath torture and terrorize others until they serve his destructive whims. And God’s beneficial system is even harder to learn for the elect who have only ever known the demonic ways of humanism, since they first need to unlearn all those bad habits and deprogram their cultic biases. All of them thought their religious and secular authorities were right to punish a thug who killed a person for a few dollars, so he could buy some beer. As representatives of Satan’s world order, it seemed just to throw that thug in prison to be tortured for the rest of his life, or to execute him. For that thug broke the law and others like him needed to be terrorized into a fear of the law. After all, that thug’s evil did not esteem Satan nearly enough, not like the mass murders committed by their society’s elite, who had committed those murders to steal a few dollars from each victim until they amassed a great fortune.
In fact, the devil made gods of the most cunning and psychopathic thugs. If a thug enslaved and exploited thousands of innocent souls, including little children, then worked them to death in very painful and degrading ways, if he also murdered masses of his equal siblings through wars and other unjust deeds to make large financial and political gains, then that thug had to be called by a title of esteem, like “lord” or “sir,” meaning, “my human god.” And, by Satan’s law, that thug also had to be rewarded with many status symbols, to proclaim his unquestioned superiority over all of his lesser siblings. Then all these status symbols had to be created by the most arrogant, deluded designers and craftsmen in the land, who also became esteemed thugs, who also forced their own exploited siblings to build those status symbols for the exclusive profit and esteem of the elite human gods. All this deadly, unjust, destructive insanity actually seemed perfectly normal to them, even to the captive elect slaves who served them. And this is why Jesus had to carefully introduce the elect to a just and godly way of life which was entirely new to them, a strange system where they would no longer worship Satan, by worshipping that devil’s favourite thugs as their human gods. Jesus had to alter their thinking in their souls, in a way where their minds of flesh stopped suppressing the thoughts of their elect spirits. Instead, Jesus taught their elect spirits to rightly manage the thoughts of their minds of flesh in their souls, according to the counsel of His Holy Spirit. Now elect spirits had to listen for the teaching of entirely unfamiliar, complex and extremely harmonized spiritual concepts, and endure extensive training in how to effectively and justly apply all those integrally related concepts in different circumstances. So this was a task that only God could perform—not in minds of flesh, but in the deep and rational minds of their spirits. This was a job that could only be assigned to the Holy Spirit of Jesus. And this was an undertaking of God that was so critical for the salvation and survival of the elect that it must never be slandered or muted by any human or demonic opposition.
Because God’s priesthood must become holy, just, wise and loving, to serve as the foundation, the pillars and the roof of the Messiah’s New Covenant kingdom on earth, many generations of those elect were required to progressively gain knowledge, wisdom and proofs of God’s ways, as well as to expunge the laws of Satan’s world order from their minds of flesh. It would take centuries to undo the works of the devil in them, and make room for the writing of God’s Law in their hearts, on the minds of their spirits. The extreme changes in the thoughts of His priests must be constructed slowly, since each stone of doctrine had to be perfectly shaped and laid precisely in its appointed place. And the only one with the knowledge, skill and wisdom required to do all this is the Holy Spirit of our God, Jesus. No infantile, ignorant human spirit could ever do this kind of work. Yet many elect spirits will indeed do this kind of work in Jesus, as His priesthood serving as His kingdom of God.
The Holy Spirit of Jesus has always chosen and called at least some elect spirits to work for Him in building up His priesthood and kingdom on earth. And He always will, to the very end of earth’s Page 889
existence. Jesus will never stop personally teaching and training elect spirits to do His just, loving works on earth. But Jesus certainly will never call any wanna-be human gods of false churches, who commit unforgivable blasphemies against His Holy Spirit every day, to partake in the construction of His eternal kingdom, neither here on earth nor in heaven. Now, again, I must reiterate the fact that not all pastors do this unforgivable sin. Some do have elect spirits in them, screaming to be freed, but are trapped in their false churches. However, these truly loving pastors are usually assigned to small churches and seldom get promoted to elite positions in church hierarchies, since they cannot turn off their inner consciences completely. As for the others, their loveless spirits are free to use their self-serving minds of flesh to exploit souls through intentional corruptions of God’s words. These are always striving to obey and appease Satan, in order to gain the rewards of that devil’s world order.
So the Holy Spirit must remove His elect from false churches and will do some massive demolition works in them. Soon Christ’s Spirit will also build His priesthood in a visible way, for all the world to see, and His loving kingdom will stand forever over the ashes of Satan’s kingdom. This will occur in end times, when Jesus will allow Satan’s beast to do what he does best, destroy. Jesus will let that devil’s evil messiah demolish the false churches, after those lying religions become useless and can no longer deceive any of the elect, since Jesus will visibly guide His priesthood of Israel. Then Jesus will come to rule all His earthly kingdom. But for now, let elect spirits learn to heed His Holy Spirit, and He will not let them slander His Holy Spirit. As for those fake pastors who blaspheme His Holy Spirit, leave them, for Jesus will not forgive them, “neither in this age nor in the one about to come.”
Therefore, when the elect see their siblings sin in common ways, through the flesh, our spirits must heed the Holy Spirit of Jesus. And He will tell us or show us when He is awakening some, making them able to hear what He says through us. Yet He will also tell us or show us when we must remain silent. He calls us to speak wisely against the sin, in His ways and with His timing, as well as how and when to do just and loving works that undo the lies and unjust works of the devil. If our elect spirits heed His Spirit, and learn from Jesus, His power will enable us to do difficult and sacrificial works effectively, in ways that accomplish His will on earth, even when the world order thinks we have failed. But, if we see loveless, lawless non-elect souls promoting a religion which slanders the teachings and works of Christ’s Holy Spirit, calling His just truths a lie or His loving works evil, we must completely separate ourselves from those unforgivable and eternally damned blasphemers of God’s Holy Spirit. For Jesus is about to utterly destroy them, about to remove them from the earth and cast them into eternal hell. And we must not be near them when the spiritual fire of God rains down on them, lest we painfully burn the body and limbs of our souls. Those slanderers of the Holy Spirit are exclusively the children of Satan, whom the devil sent to create fake churches, to become human gods of religious institutions serving his world order, so they might then enslave elect souls.
If any elect see a rabbi, priest or pastor teaching that the Holy Spirit commands his church to oppose any words or works of just and God-like love for others, and practise unjust, ruthless hatred, then let those elect flee from those blasphemers of the Holy Spirit, as fast as possible. If churches incite blind hatred against identifiable bodies of common sinners like ourselves, such as against all homosexuals or all non-believers, or against whole races and cultures of our siblings in the family of humankind, then those churches hate God and slander the core of God. They blaspheme against His Holy Spirit.
So we must have nothing to do with them, except to nullify the works of Satan done by them. Jesus will destroy those false religious teachers. If a remnant of His elect have spirits that heed Him, He will even war against them while they live on earth, during their lifetimes, by handing them over to extreme delusions that will destroy them, and by the hands of His faithful elect. But, if the elect remain among those blasphemers, and allow their flesh to rule over their lives, Jesus will prevent His Page 890
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
power from destroying those false teachers, lest He might lose some of His own children in the fires He sends down upon His enemies. And remember, if those religious liars become too evil, God may even destroy them along with the flesh of His elect children who remain among them. For God may need to physically remove a false church when its time is completed, when enough elect see through its deceptions and begin to pray against it. So the elect in that fake church will be removed with it, through the death of their flesh, although their spirits will be brought to eternal safety in heaven. So God may not immediately destroy blaspheming human gods, if His children join with those liars, lest His children harden their hearts against Him and falsely believe He is unjust. Before God destroys the blasphemers of His Holy Spirit, He will wait until He makes His elect able to see the truth and understand how those liars are non-elect enemies of God. But after God does this revealing, let the carnal elect flee from those blasphemers, lest they feel God’s wrath together with them. Now let the elect beware, and allow their spirits to heed Jesus’ Holy Spirit, so they might flee from those liars.
The time is growing short. Soon the elect must work together under one Head, through the counsel of His Holy Spirit, lest their flesh perish with much spiritual loss. And any dividers of the elect will, in effect, become mass murderers, because their divisions will result in many deaths. None of the elect can afford to heed the lies of fake shepherds, who are slandering the teachings and works of Christ’s Holy Spirit. For their lies literally have deadly effects, both physically and spiritually. Those fake religious teachers are now telling the elect to be apathetic towards their own brothers and sisters living next door, or even to hate, harm and kill those siblings. Their insane, irrational lies deceive the elect into somehow thinking that a different skin colour or a different cultural preference of the flesh is a terrible evil, or that a minor sin makes the sinner worthy of suffering their slander, their unjust dehumanization, their psychopathic cruelty and their murdering wrath, although God’s Word actually defines those self-righteous judges as far greater sinners than the sinners they so ruthlessly persecute.
So many fake churches like to forget that God’s Holy Spirit dwelt in the brown-skinned Semitic Man named Jesus, who sent the message of His real salvation into the world through His brown-skinned Jewish apostles. And this salvation is His Holy Spirit’s counsel and power to fulfill God’s Law in us and through us. Thus, His Holy Spirit condemns their slander of other sinners who are not nearly as sinful as they are themselves, because those fake churches violently blaspheme this Holy Spirit. So, when some elect flee into the safer lands of their own elect family members, as immigrants, or some elect need health care, or some elect need help due to their dire poverty which psychopathic sons of the devil unjustly cast them into, and God’s Holy Spirit calls the elect to whom He has granted the means and the ability to help those suffering elect through godly, loving compassion, then let those elect obey Jesus, and do those works, for their own eternal joy. And let those elect abandon all those fake pastors who try to convince their captive elect dupes that this calling of Christ’s Holy Spirit is a vile and evil “communist plot.” For that lie blasphemes the Holy Spirit. And even when God sends a plague to the prostituting world, so His Holy Spirit might wake up the elect and cause them to more urgently and harmoniously work together through love for one another, to save one another, those fake religious leaders oppose those physically saving cooperative and responsible works of the Holy Spirit. Those liars allow nothing from God to enter the hearts of their imprisoned elect. To counter the Holy Spirit, those liars teach their dupes to selfishly demand a so-called “right” to a demonic and totally irresponsible kind of false “freedom,” which binds hearts in the darkness of delusions and takes absolutely no responsibility for the deaths of God’s people that they cause in their lands. So these deceivers are not merely common sinners. Rather, the spirits of those unjust, selfish, unloving, carnal, cruel, non-elect souls commit unforgivable sins in an unholy war against Jesus’ Holy Spirit.
Page 891
Now let the elect stand with Jesus, allow His Holy Spirit to teach and confirm the real truths to our spirit. Let God’s Spirit teach our spirits about His own intended meanings of His words, as well as about the realities He created in this material universe and in the spiritual realm, even a knowledge of our own spirits and the other spirits we love. We need to heed the Holy Spirit of Jesus in all matters of life and faith, accepting Him as our one and only Head Teacher. And, yes, we even need to heed all that His Holy Spirit confirms regarding the findings of true science, that is, all discoveries that honest scientists have confirmed to be true and real. Of course, we cannot naively trust all that claims to be science, especially what is reported by biased journalists with political agendas. For all scientists are sinners like us. And many are tempted to lie, like the rest of all mankind, especially if their amoral minds of flesh desire fame and fortune, or a reason to commit exploitative sins. And many scientists are heavily influenced by spiritual, demonic biases against God, whether or not they might admit it. This is especially evident regarding some of their asinine, irrational and arrogant idle speculations about evolution, cosmology, archaeology, eugenics, psychiatry, psychology, sociology and so on. However, just as both honest and dishonest gardeners have always studied the plants they grow, or herders have always studied the animals they tend, or masons have always studied chemical compositions of their materials and methods of utilizing them for human purposes, both honest and dishonest scientists now study such things too. And confirmed findings of honest scientists can be of great help to honest gardeners, herders, masons and all the other workers doing other works on earth.
The reason that churches became so stupid and now believe so many lies is because they have no love for any kind of truth, neither physical realities nor the wisdom of God written in His Word, and even refuse to spend a single moment reading what the Creator wrote in all His spiritual and physical creations. Thus, God has always handed them over to Satan’s delusions, for the utter destruction of their flesh. This is why some of them will call God’s creation of alcoholic wine, which our God Jesus commanded His New Covenant priesthood to drink in remembrance of His works, “demonic,”
but will worship a thoroughly Satanic, psychopathic liar as their saviour and god at the same time. It is because God gave the people of those false churches over to an utter darkness of total delusions.
However, the real Holy Spirit of the real Jesus Christ always leads the elect into the light of all kinds of truths, into all kinds of realities and effective principles, even into understanding true and honest science. By revealing all kinds of truths to them, Jesus provides His awakened elect with an greater ability to serve Him, to do their works effectively through just love in their spirits. For God created all spiritual and material realities based on the realities of His inner attributes, although the training ground of the material universe also contains the opposites of His nature to instruct the desires of our spirits in directing the zeal of love. Therefore, since God created, maintains and owns even the entire material universe, it is impossible for true science to find any verifiable facts that can contradict any God-intended meanings of His words in the Bible. So we never need to censor science, but only need to ensure that sinful scientists remain honest, just as we need to do for all the sinners who teach influential knowledge. We need to commit all our pastors, politicians, judges, lawyers, policing authorities, medical doctors, school teachers and so on to complete honesty, even when it contradicts we previously believed. Yet, throughout history, minds of flesh have deliberately interpreted God’s Word dishonestly, according to carnal biases, and have used those false interpretations to bind or limit inquiry into the truth. And they have always done this for political or financial gain, and always in ways that made the people suffer in oppression, slavery, terrorism, starvation, homelessness and every other kind of want unto death, with deluded fake churches leading all down to the pit of hell.
So it is time for the elect—for all those possessing spirits which bear an innate capacity to build love in their spirits, upon a foundation of truth—to allow their spirits to hear and heed the Holy Spirit of Page 892
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
our God Jesus, and begin their walk of salvation through His blood shed on the cross for their deadly sins of the flesh. For only His Spirit can teach our spirits to carefully distinguish between the truth and lies, even between true and false science. Then we can use those truths, especially the wise and proven principles God revealed in His Word, but also true science, to more fully understand our God Himself, and all that He wants us to do for the beloved souls He brings into the spheres of our lives.
“For the invisible things of Him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even His everlasting power and divinity” (Rom. 1:20, WEB). And honest science uses empirical observation to study what is “being perceived through the things that are made.” Thus, true science helps us understand “the invisible” or spiritual things of God, even our God’s θειότης (“the quality or characteristics pertaining to deity, divinity, divine nature,” BDAG3).
Because the Holy Spirit of Jesus enters into the chambers of our souls, to teach our spirits about all kinds of truth, to reveal spiritual and physical realities created by Him, then let us trust His Spirit.
For this is what His Word calls our saving faith. This also means that we need to ignore fake pastors in fake churches and all their blasphemies against Christ’s Holy Spirit. We must treat the words of all those liars like the annoying noise of bickering drunks in bar. All those who truly have the real Jesus Christ’s Holy Spirit dwelling in their hearts will grow more firmly grounded in spiritual and physical truths, through His counsel granted to their awakened spirits, so they can begin to effectively and wisely do the compassionate and loving works of God, to build up His just kingdom and nullify evil.
We conclude that all who more firmly believe lies each day, all who do not love the truth and are being handed over to delusions, obviously do not have Jesus Christ’s Holy Spirit dwelling with their spirits in their hearts and souls. Jesus is not their Head Teacher. His Holy Spirit is not the Counsellor of their spirits, no matter how strongly and emotionally their minds of flesh claim to know Jesus, no matter how zealously the emotions of their flesh babble in fake “tongues.” Liars and believers of lies are not being saved by Jesus into the light of all truth. Now some of these firm believers of lies may actually be God’s children. Some may be the worldly elect who have been deceived and enslaved by Satan’s children. Thus, all the spirits of those elect still possess an innate ability to repent into the truth, through godly sorrow regarding their deadly sins. All elect spirits will eventually awaken and hear God, then learn to love Him and His creations. But most of their religious leaders, all who spontaneously and deliberately slander the words of Christ’s Holy Spirit uttered to human spirits, then vilify all the just and compassionate works which His Holy Spirit calls His children to perform through love, are the non-elect. Because those false teachers continuously commit the unforgivable sin of slandering the words and works of Jesus’ Holy Spirit, let all the awakened elect, all with eyes opened to see, obey this command of Jesus’ Holy Spirit: “Abandon them! They are blind guides of the blind ones. So, if a blind one might guide a blind one, both will fall into a pit” (Mat. 15:14, ALT).
Make no mistake, Jesus will cause both the blind guides and their blind followers to fall into a pit during “this age” of life on earth. Then most will be cast into the eternal pit of hell during “the age about to come,” after the earth ends, when all must go to judgment at the gates of heaven. Yes, the elect among their blind followers, and even a few of the lesser blind guides who are deceived elect puppets of the greater blind guides, will be saved from hell on that last day. The elect will be taught the truth and will repent into that truth on the final day. But those worldly elect will incur so much pain and loss on that day that they will wish their spirits had not lived in flesh for even an hour after birth, rather than spend their years greedily grasping the worthless trash which the world order stole from innocents to tempt their flesh. For all their earthly straw, hay and wood, which they so eagerly gathered for the pleasures of their flesh on earth, will be burned to nothing by the fiery rebukes of Jesus. All the material gain and self-serving power they strove so hard to possess on earth will be Page 893
utterly lost forever, even as they mourn all the useful spiritual treasures they could have gathered during their lives on earth, but had eternally forfeited. Yes, literally all elect souls will enter heaven, and literally all of them will forever grow more spiritually enriched as they labour beside Jesus in those infinite lands. But many will never regain the lost opportunities to grow their spirits into a larger, stronger and more fully joyful stature while they lived on earth. And, since this growth of their spirits was stunted while on earth, through the starvation of their spirits, while they let their flesh govern their lives and neglect their spirits, they will waste much time in heaven to regain all that they forfeited on earth. Surely their spiritual loss will be far greater than any material loss they may have suffered by allowing their spirits to heed Jesus, any losses their flesh may have received from God’s enemies, even if their entire earthly lives had to endure unjust poverty and persecution.
Although this teaching about the unforgivable sin of slandering the Holy Spirit is complex, and it is impossible for any Greco-Roman humanists to comprehend, it is critical for all disciples of Jesus to understand it. For His disciples need to remain pure, uncorrupted by the machinations of non-elect deceivers sent by Satan. That lying and murdering devil often puts on the mask of a godly messenger of reason and truth, and so do his lying and murdering children. But the elect must look under that mask to see who is speaking, as well as the motives and intentions of that messenger. And this is why all the synoptic Gospels repeated this teaching of Jesus about the unforgivable sin of slandering His Holy Spirit. Then the apostles taught about this as well. All the New Testament taught about it.
Mark told us how Jesus said: “Assuredly I reason with you people, all kinds of the sins and the slanders, as much as might be slandered, will be forgiven for the benefit of the children of people.
Yet whoever might have slandered against the Holy Spirit does not possess forgiveness into the age, but is in danger of an eternal sin” (Mark 3:28-30, ALT). Then Mark provided the reason for Jesus saying this, “because [the Bible scholars from Jerusalem] had been saying, ‘[Jesus] has an unclean spirit’” (Mark 3:31, ALT). Evangelical rabbis, even the foremost Pharisaic scholars, came to teach their people that physical rituals are spiritual and that an elect spirit’s love is worthless, that good is evil and evil is good, that true is false and false is true, that right is wrong and wrong is right, and even that the most demonic people and things are holy, worthy of worship. These human gods, who loved to let their people bow before them, came to oppose Jesus and His truth. These fake heads of the church intentionally slandered the works and essence of Jesus’ Holy Spirit, in order to maintain their status, pride and income. So, as long as they existed on earth, Jesus would never grant them forgiveness. Throughout their lives on earth they would never receive a restored relationship with God, because they never had a good relationship with God in the beginning, when their spirits were created by Satan. Thus, their entire lives would be spent as captives in Satan’s dark delusions. Then, since their own malicious spirits created those slanderous lies, Jesus will not forgive them on the last day either. For our God Jesus must uphold all His justice and truth, all that is right, holy and loving.
Luke also recorded this teaching of Jesus: “Everyone who might might commit to agreeing with the truth in Me before the people, the Son of mankind will also commit to agreeing with the truth in him before the angels of God. But the one rejecting Me before the faces of the people will be rejected before the faces of the angels of God. And everyone who will utter a word against the Son of mankind, it will be forgiven for [that] one’s benefit. Yet, for the one [who speaks] against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven” (Luke 12:8-10, ALT). In verse 8, the meaning of the verb ὁμολογέω
implies more than “confessing” that Jesus is the Messiah and God, since even demons will often do that. Rather, it suggests “to commit oneself to do something for someone; to concede that something is factual or true; a profession of allegiance” (BDAG3). And spirits of demons, with their offspring, will continuously slander the words and works of God’s Spirit, will constantly war against all that is Page 894
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
true, just, holy and loving. So they can never do what the word ὁμολογέω requires. And this is why Jesus’ teaching about the unforgivable sin of slandering the Holy Spirit followed His teaching about the ὁμολογέω kind of commitment to Him and His truth. And that kind of commitment is actually what we call saving faith. Jesus, as our good Teacher, likely repeated these teachings many times, during many different circumstances. For all good teachers need to repeat their teachings for their students to discover how those principles are applied in different ways and in different scenarios.
Thus, those who heard Jesus apply these teachings many times and in numerous ways would eventually develop a more plenary and broad understanding of what was involved in the act of slandering the Holy Spirit. And they would begin to realize that this teaching was not merely a rule forbidding the slander of God’s prophets or God, Jesus, Himself, through the anger and ignorance of the mind of flesh. Rather, slandering the Holy Spirit was an inward sin, a sin of a spirit and, more specifically, a sin of a non-elect spirit, committed by one who was incapable of ever agreeing with the truth from the Holy Spirit in Jesus. For all elect spirits could not only agree with His truths, but also inherently desired to agree with all His truths, because the love in them relied upon those truths.
Then the Scriptures also provide us with this teaching: “For [it is] impossible [for] those [who] at one time had been enlightened—both by having tasted of the gifts originating from heaven and having been made participants in things produced by the Holy Spirit, even having tasted both the beautiful [written or spoken] Word from God as well as from a powerful coming age—then, after falling away, to renew [themselves] as a product of repentance once again, re-crucifying the Son of God for their benefit, even publicly disgracing [Him]. For land, having drunk the rain frequently coming upon it, then producing a crop suitable for the benefit of others, because of whom it is tilled, is receiving praise from God with them. Yet [the land] bringing out thorns and thistles [is] worthless and close to receiving a curse, the end of which [is] for burning. Still, beloved ones, we have been persuaded and now believe better things regarding you people, and [things] accompanying salvation, even if we are saying this” (Heb. 6:4-9, ALT). Now notice how this is talking about the kind of long-term effects of salvation, comparing a us to land producing crops after some time, after the tilling, rain and sun have worked upon that land. We all begin to renew our lives by repenting into the truth and receiving forgiveness after we impulsively speak in frustration and ignorance, or commit sins in the weakness of our flesh. And God’s forgiveness restores our relationship with Him so that we start to do His kinds of works and speak His truths, more and more each day. These are the things which are “accompanying salvation,” the fruits of our spirits being taught and trained by His Holy Spirit.
We must understand what this author was actually stating here. If God has sown good seeds in the earthly lives of His elect, if God has placed elect spirits in their bodies of flesh, then that good seed will produce exactly the kinds of plants God put in them. The tilling, rain and sun that God provides for His “land,” for His kingdom of elect souls on earth, invariably will grow the kinds of plants that God sowed. It is “impossible” for the elect whom God sowed to grow into any other kinds of plants.
Wheat and barley seeds cannot grow into thorns and thistles. Now the breath of the devil may also sow weeds like thorns and thistles in among the good seeds on God’s “land,” in the earthly kingdom of God’s elect, in the churches and governments raised up by God. But it is literally “impossible” for the good seeds, for elect spirits in God’s land, to become weeds like thorns and thistles. The crops from God’s land, especially in some particular patches of His land, may need to be cleaned after the harvest, and the devil’s seeds shall be sifted out from the good crop by the last day. But all the elect spirits God seeded will become God’s good crop and will be brought into His city of New Jerusalem.
Only the land or kingdom of the world order, where nothing but weeds like thorns and thistles are sown by its malicious steward, cannot become anything good. Not even a volunteer crop of wheat, Page 895
oats or barley can sprout up in Satan’s land, since that devil never planted any good seeds there, not even one good crop since the very beginning of that land’s existence. So that land will be set aside as wasteland. All Satan’s spiritual “land” will be forever separated from God’s useful spiritual “land,”
and his entire evil kingdom will be cast into spiritual place called hell, together with is vile steward.
This author was writing about a people who had experienced or “tasted” the fruits of God’s saving works in a true church. Many were elect souls who had witnessed the real Holy Spirit of Jesus actually and effectively teaching and training their faithful spirits to do His works on earth, in the same way those works will be done in heaven above. But unforgivable souls had seen, heard and felt these same effects of “the gifts originating from heaven,” and had been actual participants “in things produced by the Holy Spirit.” Their very spirits had witnessed God’s good rain and sun, had fully become aware of God’s personal love and works among human souls. Those reprobates also heard true interpretations of “the beautiful [written or spoken] Word from God,” the real meanings that God intended His words to bear, since God’s Holy Spirit taught, trained and sent His teaching elders to proclaim those truths to all. Those lovers of darkness had seen Christ’s New Covenant priesthood of human sinners learning to conduct their lives according to the ways of “a powerful coming age,”
through God’s works in them. Yet, after witnessing all this, those fake church members still hated Jesus and His works, and wanted to Make Antichrists Great Again. They desired only the “good old”
ways of carnal gain in Satan’s world order, through oppression, slavery, terrorism and murder. They produced only hurtful fruits in life, nothing but “thorns and thistles,” nothing useful to the God who tilled hearts and sowed His truths in them. They became just like the blasphemers of the Holy Spirit who falsely and irrationally accused Jesus of casting out demons by the power of Satan. Nothing but hypocrisy and lies grew inside them, nothing but the kinds of things angels will burn on the last day.
Therefore, in Hebrews 6:4-9, this author was obviously indicating that, if any receive an opportunity to learn real truths from Jesus’ Holy Spirit, and has the time to become fully aware of the kind of life that Jesus’ Holy Spirit trains all His disciples to live, yet rejects those truths and hates that life, then that one cannot be forgiven. That one has proved to be a non-elect spirit, incapable of repenting into the truth for the forgiveness of sins. That one may think the crucifixion of Christ’s body of flesh will serve as a talisman, as a magic thing which can cause sins to be forgiven, whenever one’s own “free will” desires it. But that one’s spirit will never be restored to a right relationship with God’s Spirit.
The author of Hebrews was describing non-elect spirits who prefer the spiritual darkness of their cherished lies and delusions to the spiritual light of God. This Scripture is not saying that mere sins of the impulsive flesh cannot be forgiven. Rather, the one who cannot be forgiven has a human spirit that has seen God, God’s truths and God’s works, then deliberately rejects it all, because that spirit desires the ruler, lies and rewards of Satan’s world order far more. The one who will never be able to
“renew [oneself] as a product of repentance once again” is one whose non-elect spirit has no desire to be made truly loving, just and holy through the continuous, ongoing teaching and training of the Messiah’s Holy Spirit. All those non-elect really want is to feel free from the impending doom that hangs over their heads for the ruthless sins they know they have committed. So they want a magic forgiveness. So, “after falling away” into sin, and even “even publicly disgracing Him,” they want the ability to “re-crucify the Son of God for their benefit,” to wipe away all the guilt of their fully intentional sins which their spirits love to do. Since their hearts never grieve over the victims of their sins, nor strive to bear fruits of true repentance, they want an instant, easy feeling of forgiveness, as well as the ability to brush off anyone who attempts to make them accountable for their own crimes.
It is clear that this passage from Hebrews (6:4-9) is referring to the same kinds of false Jews that Jesus condemned for committing the unforgivable sin of blaspheming the Holy Spirit, and the same Page 896
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
kinds of fake “Christians” we see today, the same kinds that have always seen strutting around in fake churches since the first century. The author of Hebrews was warning the elect about the kinds of hypocrites who think they can magically invoke the name of Jesus through their supposed “free will”
of their minds of flesh, and use His sacrifice on the cross to receive the church’s forgiveness for all their sins. Liars have always used fake repentance and false doctrines of forgiveness as a means of maintaining their exploitative relationships with other souls in the church. Yet their spirits never actually possess any real desire for God’s true forgiveness, because true forgiveness is the act of God restoring His relationship with sinners. And, in that restored relationship, the joyful spirits of truly repentant sinners gladly submit to being taught and trained by their Father’s Holy Spirit, because those spirits long to become just as holy, just and loving as their heavenly Father. So, by deceptively using a fake repentance and inventing unbiblical doctrines of forgiveness, those liars are figuratively crucifying Jesus’ over and over again, every time they intentionally sin through the wills of their spirits. For they are not sinning merely through impulses of their flesh, because their non-elect spirits do not oppose the sins of their flesh. In fact, their non-elect spirits actually congratulate their flesh, whenever it commits a sin to gain power or money, without having to suffer negative consequences.
In reality, Jesus’ flesh died for our entire lifetime of sins committed through our flesh, so His Holy Spirit could then justly enter our hearts through His Spirit’s restored relationship with elect spirits, with the human spirits He chose to create in His image. And He can fully justify His forgiveness because His power is well-able to transform our lives into His holy image, by teaching and training our spirits to become loving and just. But, if the untaught see a deliberate sinner justify his own sins through a fake repentance and false doctrines of forgiveness, which is to re-crucify Jesus over and over again, those without understanding will soon begin to believe that Jesus actually promotes sin and injustice. They will think Jesus died on that cross to merely provide a magic way of avoiding culpability for sins. Thus, God will not forgive those liars who slander the Holy Spirit working to truly save His elect children. Jesus will not forgive those non-elect who have heard His Word and have seen His Holy Spirit do His loving works on earth, but learned no truth nor love through all the works of Jesus they saw and experienced, who slander His Holy Spirit through their fake religious words and deeds. Since their non-elect spirits despise the truth and loving ways of God, they are utterly incapable of repenting into the truth for actual forgiveness and real salvation in the Messiah.
This same man who penned the book of Hebrews also wrote: “How will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation—which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard; God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?” (Heb. 2:3-4, WEB). Then He told us: “For, if we are continuously practising sin wilfully [i.e., the present participle form of ἁμαρτάνω is clearly durative in context] after the time we received the full discernment of the truth [i.e. in the phrase, μετὰ τὸ
λαβεῖν, the preposition with its accusative infinitive object indicates a period of time elapsed in the past, and implies enough time to gain full discernment], a sacrifice is no longer remaining on behalf of the sins” (Heb.
10:26, ALT). Here the author implies that the “full discernment of the truth” is a gift of the Holy Spirit granted to us by “works of power” done by God. For only the voice of God’s Spirit bears the power to penetrate the walls of our hearts to teach the minds of our spirits. Now, since all elect spirits are created with an innate love and desire for His truth, and all the love in elect spirits is built upon this truth, all elect spirits willingly embrace this truth, usually with little or no resistance to it.
Therefore, if we see a person always stubbornly ignoring, disregarding and opposing God’s truth, after being granted enough time to receive the full discernment of that truth, then we can be quite certain that this one has a non-elect spirit, especially if the reason that one constantly rejects the truth Page 897
is so one can wilfully practise sin. Of course, we also need to be careful about judgments like this, since there are other reasons why the elect, especially women, will consistently reject the truth. For some people, especially women, tend to develop a strong loyalties to deceivers, and feel that they will betray those liars if they accept the truths that those liars reject. And, although men have minds of flesh without such a strong natural propensity for compromise and submission, their loyalty will overcome their spirits’ desire for the truth in Christ as much as it will in women. Then many elect also suffer from the incessant reinforcements of threatening superstitions, which leaves them far too terrified to accept the real truth. Nevertheless, any person who has been granted time to develop a full discernment of the truth, yet continuously practises sin in a way that rejects and opposes the truth, likely has a non-elect spirit that is never be able to repent into the truth. Thus, “a sacrifice is no longer remaining on behalf of that person’s sins.” The non-elect cannot be forgiven nor enter heaven.
But let me repeat that the non-elect human spirits born of Satan never want to enter the real heaven of the true Creator. For the real third heaven is a place where God and all the spirits allowed to dwell there serve one another through an equitable, just, caring love, because the light of truth permeates every “molecule” in that place. Thus, the hate-filled non-elect lovers of darkness actually utterly despise heaven, and places like heaven on earth. The non-elect often say they want to go to heaven, but only because their minds of flesh imagine heaven to be a place which provides gratification for all their carnal desires. They somehow think heaven will be where they shall be served, not where they shall joyfully serve God and others. They think heaven is a place where they will still possess their earthly bodies of flesh, where their earthly flesh can indulge in as much delicious earthly food as their stomachs of flesh can possibly eat, with all the pleasure of eternal idleness while their bodies of flesh are served by slaves, even by as many beautiful women the lusts of their flesh could possibly desire. But the real heaven is an entirely spiritual place, where we will receive new bodies made of a spiritual substance, where all will be androgynous beings and none will be slaves. Then the food for our spiritual bodies will taste wonderful because that food will consist of the light of pure truth, inner life and love, since our bodies will be made of the light of pure truth and love. Just as our bodies of flesh are made of the transformed energy of God, our spiritual bodies will be made of untransformed energy of God. Nor will there be any slaves serving us, not even the spiritual bodies of plants and animals, because we will be continuously serving all the living creatures there, in the same way our Father and oldest Brother will be continuously serving all. Neither will there be males and females, since our new bodies will not need to reproduce more vessels for spirits to dwell in. All our new spiritual bodies will be created directly by the power of God, and will work in complete harmony with the minds of our spirits. And there will be an eternal training of our spirits to make them more like our Father, but no more need for further exposure to the loveless ways of Satan to build up our zeal for God, nor a need for earthly flesh that weighs down our spirits to build up spiritual muscles.
A Dichotomy of Human Spirits
The devout Jews, who had studied and meditated upon God’s Laws throughout their lives, would have understood what Jesus said about God’s willingness to grant forgiveness to all who slandered Him through the ignorance and emotions of their flesh. For God instantly forgives literally all sins of the flesh, even blasphemy. But they also saw how the very spirits of those Evangelicals (Pharisees) slandered the loving words and works of God’s utterly holy Spirit, how their spirits hated the good heart and core attributes of God, how Jesus cast a ruthless, life-destroying demon out of His child, solely for the benefit of that man. And the devout saw how those Evangelicals sided with the demon against Jesus, because those Evangelicals were just as psychopathic as the demon. Still, one thought Page 898
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
was bothering those devout Jews. These elect souls were worried about whether or not they had also accidentally committed the unforgivable sin of slandering the Holy Spirit, or if might do so in the future. Jesus knew that this brought fear to their souls, and not in a good way. For it caused them to watch the words of their mouths of flesh, lest they might inadvertently utter some kind of evil lie against God. But it was not the physical words they might speak or write that they should worry about most. Yes, they needed to be slow to speak, and careful about their words. However, their principal concern should be to let their spirits learn from His Holy Spirit, so they would have good and useful words to speak and write. So placing all their focus on outwardly looking pious, in public words, was a distraction from their goal of salvation. In fact, they had begun to study politically and religiously correct terminology far more than they studied God’s Word for truth about life and faith.
Therefore, Jesus followed His teaching about the unforgivable sin, which He defined as a human spirit’s intentional slander of the Holy Spirit’s good and loving intentions and motives, with an assurance. Jesus wanted the elect to know that this unforgivable sin cannot possibly be committed by elect spirits, because elect spirits do not possess any of the intent and motive necessary to actually commit this sin. Instead, elect spirit were created with an inherent desire for love, which can only be built upon the realities God created in heaven and on earth, the truths He taught. Unforgivable sins could not possibly be done by spirits who spontaneously loved Him. So the focus of His disciples must remain on letting their spirits in their hearts learn from Him, not upon training their minds of flesh to always utter what seems correct to the fake religious judges around them. Jesus explained how and why some could commit the unpardonable sin, and why the elect could not, and should not worry about it. Likewise, we also need to realize the differences between the elect and the non-elect.
Jesus’ next words were: “Either you people make the tree beautiful and the fruit from it beautiful, or you people make the tree worthless and the fruit from it worthless. For the tree is being perceived by the fruit. [Now Jesus turned away from His disciples, to specifically address the sinning Evangelicals.] Produce of vipers, being evil, how are you people able to receive beneficial things? [Now Jesus would have turned back to His disciples and addressed them.] For the mouth utters [words] out of the surplus of the heart. The usefully good person casts out usefully good things, out from usefully good treasures [in one’s heart]. And the evil person casts out evil things, out from evil treasures [in one’s heart]. So I reason with you people, that every useless spoken or written word which the people will express [from the spirit in the heart], they will repay a word on behalf of it during the judgment day. For [each one of]
you will be justified by the words from [each one of] you, and [each one of] you will be proved guilty by the words from [each one of] you” (Mat. 12:33-37, from: Ἢ ποιήσατε τὸ δένδρον καλὸν
καὶ τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ καλόν, ἢ ποιήσατε τὸ δένδρον σαπρὸν καὶ τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ σαπρόν· ἐκ γὰρ
τοῦ καρποῦ τὸ δένδρον γινώσκεται. γεννήματα ἐχιδνῶν, πῶς δύνασθε ἀγαθὰ λαλεῖν πονηροὶ ὄντες; ἐκ γὰρ τοῦ περισσεύματος τῆς καρδίας τὸ στόμα λαλεῖ. ὁ ἀγαθὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ ἀγαθοῦ
θησαυροῦ ἐκβάλλει ἀγαθά, καὶ ὁ πονηρὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ θησαυροῦ ἐκβάλλει πονηρά.
λέγω δὲ ὑμῖν ὅτι πᾶν ῥῆμα ἀργὸν ὃ λαλήσουσιν οἱ ἄνθρωποι, ἀποδώσουσιν περὶ αὐτοῦ λόγον ἐν
ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως· ἐκ γὰρ τῶν λόγων σου δικαιωθήσῃ, καὶ ἐκ τῶν λόγων σου καταδικασθήσῃ, SBLGNT). Since all judgments base the sentence upon the intentions and motives of the spirit, here Jesus defined two kinds of intentions and motives from two kinds of spirits. One kind of spirit spoke carefully treasured truths through its cherishing love, in ways that justified their whole souls and nullified any need for punishment. The other kind spoke carefully crafted lies through its greedily hoarded hatred, with wicked intentions and evil motives, in ways proving them to be guilty, worthy of the ultimate punishment, requiring them to be eternal separated from God and His good creations.
Page 899
Now, of course, Jesus was speaking to people living in a chiefly agrarian community. Everyone had either tended fruit trees and crops, or basically knew how it was done. Even pastors (rabbis) of the Evangelical (Pharisaic) local churches (synagogues) were gardeners, or knew about gardening. So Jesus used the planting and tending of fruit trees to illustrate how the elect in their churches should live. If one propagated a branch from a productive and healthy fruit tree, then tended it wisely as it grew, and was diligent enough to pick the fruit before it became over-ripened and fell to the ground, before it would rot and become food for insects and worms, then that tree would not only be useful, but also beautiful. However, if one let a fruit tree grow from a seed randomly dropped by some creature on one’s land, either a tree with edible or noxious fruit, then never pruned it nor picked its fruit, so that stinging wasps might swarm to suck the sweet juices from the over-ripened fruit on the ground and in the tree, then both that tree and its fruit could become a useless eyesore, or even a hazard to everyone passing by. So Jesus was basically telling the elect in those churches that it was their spirit’s responsibility to make their lives beautiful, so the fruits of their lives would be fresh, tasty, desired, useful for healthy nourishment and, therefore, beautiful. For all elect spirits had been granted a garden of flesh. But it was their spirits that were responsible for that flesh, not the flesh for the spirit. So elect spirits needed to take branches from the good tree of God’s truth and plant that in their souls, in their lives on earth in bodies of flesh. Then their spirits needed to tend those trees with care and due diligence, so it would bear good fruit. But, if an elect spirit allowed the growth of any seed dropped by any demon or non-elect liar into one’s mind of flesh, or even let God drop seeds of real truth but never tended them, then one’s entire life and fruits would be worthless, even harmful.
Allegorical comparisons between that which grows in the soul and that which grows on the earth were common in those days, because God’s truths, even God’s core attributes, were written in both His physical and spiritual creations which they lived among. Thus, most Jews back then would have understood these figurative words of Jesus. And notice how, for a moment, Jesus turned to the fake Evangelicals who had slandered Him and the Holy Spirit in Him, to address them specifically (as is indicated by the vocative mode in the Greek text). Keeping to the metaphor He had uttered, Jesus called them the “fruits” or “produce” of vipers (γεννήματα ἐχιδνῶν), which refers to the “offspring of vipers.” So Jesus stated, in no uncertain terms, that those fake Evangelicals were not the elect, nor were their teachings the fruits from any of the kinds of trees that any elect should ever grow in their lives. Rather, those liars against the Holy Spirit were merely fruits or produce of something growing elsewhere, something outside the “garden” of elect lives owned by God. The unforgivable slanderers of the Holy Spirit had spirits born of venomous demons. In fact, Jesus not only called those religious frauds the “produce of vipers,” but asked them this rhetorical question: “Being evil, how are you people able to receive beneficial things?” In other words, those fake religious guides could never receive a seed of God’s good tree to produce beautiful fruit, nor that kind of fruit grown by others.
Those whose spirits lied against the Holy Spirit could never receive salvation, nor its fruits of love built upon truth. Their souls were barren ground, incapable of growing anything good. Since they grew from seeds of demons, their trees and evil fruits could not benefit anyone in any good way.
After saying this to those sons of devils, Jesus seems to have turned His attention back to the elect souls surrounding Him, both His own disciples and disciples of the Evangelicals. Then He reminded the devout that “the mouth utters [words] out of the surplus of the heart.” Not all, but surely many of our words come from our spirits and are spoken for spiritual purposes, whether our minds of flesh consciously realize it or not. And every elect spirit expresses some just love through its words of some carefully grown and tended truth. But every non-elect spirit also expresses some of its unjust lovelessness through lies or twisted truths, no matter what kind of good political or religious image it Page 900
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
outwardly attempts to convey. For the spirit is the manager of the flesh. So the spirit often affects the content of words uttered by the mind and mouth of the flesh, and tells the flesh how to express them.
Furthermore, the core inherent attributes of every individual spirit remain stable. Thus, so do the overall and most inner purposes of the spirit, since a spirit always expresses itself according to its inherent core attributes. So every spirit consistently and ultimately speaks for either just and loving purposes or unjust and loveless purposes. And no spirit is able to vacillate from heading in one truly spiritual direction to the other. Yes, the elect can be trapped in ignorance and sin, and outwardly look like their headed for hell, then completely alter the whole course of their lives through their spirits’
repentance into the truth. But the non-elect never desire this change, and the most they can ever do is live a more legally acceptable life through a fear of punishment, while their spirits remain loveless.
Thus, Jesus proclaimed: “The usefully good person casts out usefully good things, out from usefully good treasures in one’s heart. And the evil person casts out evil things, out from evil treasures in one’s heart.” Since the “heart” is where the spirit dwells, Jesus here defined two kinds of spirits. The
“usefully good person” has an elect spirit with inherently “usefully good” attributes initially created in that spirit by God Himself. And that kind of spirit only ever longs to store “treasures” of justice and love in its dwelling place, in the heart. But a non-elect spirit only ever wants to store up lies and delusions, with many black books listing the names of the people one’s spirit wants to destroy for personal gain and for the protection of one’s own delusions. Of course, while on this earth, both the elect and the non-elect possess the same kinds of minds and bodies of flesh. But that flesh cannot be either innately evil or innately unjust, although it is always self-serving, and needs to be, because it was designed to seek its own welfare and survival. So the mind of flesh is amoral, and never able to either love or hate. Thus, without either love or hate, all thoughts and emotions of the flesh about love, hate and spiritual/moral matters will be abstract, and ultimately directed by a spirit in its heart, usually by a human spirit, although sometimes by God or by a demonic spirit. But a mind of flesh itself will primarily think only about “neutral” things, like keeping its heart beating, food and fleshy matters. Only the mind of a spirit is able to concern itself with spiritual/moral matters. And, in fact, no spirit can possibly be morally “neutral.” All spirits are moral entities, either innately good or evil.
Naturally, many uttered words are not from the heart, but merely originate from one’s mind of flesh.
And selfishness in the mind of flesh will often express itself in words and actions that are unloving.
Now we may sometimes call some of those bad words and actions of the flesh “evil,” because we are offended by that one’s spirit for allowing its flesh to utter those words. Yet the words and deeds of the flesh do not ever actually express any kind of love or hate, nor are they either good or evil, since the flesh is amoral, and possesses no ability to love or hate. The words and deeds of the flesh lack any spiritual or moral intentions and motives, because all these are expression of a spirit’s love or hate. Literally all genuine good or evil is an expression of either a spirit’s love or its lovelessness.
Now, if the words and deeds of the flesh are evil, destructive, hurtful or just plain bad, the spirit that allowed its flesh to say and do those sins is often guilty. For that spirit either caused those words and deeds to be said and done by the flesh through that spirit’s wicked motives with evil intent, or that spirit allowed those sins through sinful negligence, because that spirit did not manage its flesh in a responsible and diligent manner. For the spirit is the manager of the flesh, and ultimately responsible for all the flesh says and does. But often an elect soul has an infantile spirit which lacks any ability to fully control its mind and body of flesh. So, in that circumstance, the spirit is not guilty for its sins of the flesh, and the sin of the flesh cannot be called evil. It is merely an unfortunate event, like a drought or a flood, and is ultimately caused by God in order to train that elect spirit, as well as the other elect spirits who should be helping that infantile elect spirit. Sins strictly from the flesh are not Page 901
truly immoral, since they originate entirely from an amoral source. If bad words or bad deeds do not come from the wicked intent and malicious desires of a spirit, but solely through lusts, anger or other impulses of the flesh, in a way where a suppressed or sleeping spirit neither endorses nor partakes in those words or deeds, then those words or deeds are neutral, not evil. The same applies to good words and deeds done entirely through the flesh, without a spirit’s endorsement or participation. All such good words and deeds are neutral, and cannot be called good. And there are many souls with constantly sleeping spirits, who walk almost entirely according to thoughts from their minds of flesh.
So when people talk about the weather or other physical things, without revealing or implying any intentions or motives of their spirits, their words are neutral, neither good nor evil. And people often intentionally hide their spirits’ intentions and motives by talking about physical, neutral topics. Yet even words about the weather will sometimes expose some good or evil in a spirit. If the weather causes harm to an innocent but hated person, an evil spirit will cause one’s flesh to smile about the tragedy. But a good spirit is always concerned about harm done to innocent souls. A spirit will either approve or oppose, either cause or hinder the words and deeds of its body of flesh. And a non-elect spirit’s bitterness, hatred and lovelessness is not like the simple frustration of the selfish mind of flesh. A non-elect spirit’s moral propensities often reveal themselves even in neutral conversations about the weather or the news, such as in a ruthless spirit’s lust for unjust revenge, in ways that are far more evil than the mere anger of the flesh against those who harmed it. Likewise, neutral topics can also expose a loving elect spirit’s zeal for justice and equity. On the other hand, the non-elect also try to copy that loving zeal for justice and equity, to hide their inner nature, and will act just like the elect, even though their spirits possess a complete apathy for the lives of the innocent and for the rest of God’s beloved creations. Then again, fleshy and unjust words and deeds also might simply reveal a thoroughly suppressed elect spirit who has fallen into a trap of totally incapacitating frustration, which puts that spirit into an almost unconscious state, much like sleep. Therefore, our judgments about whether a person is an elect or non-elect is extremely complex and requires much time to come to any kind of reasonable decision. And, since we cannot peer into a soul and look at the the spirit’s attributes, like God can, even that decision is tenuous, not final and certain. Still, we can often judge awakened elect and non-elect spirits rightly by their “fruits,” that is, by their words and deeds done through their flesh. For awakened spirits most consistently and frequently reveal their motives and intentions through their flesh. A spirit will manifest many truths or lies through its life lived through its flesh, and “is being perceived by the fruit,” by its words and deeds of the flesh.
A spirit’s treasures of either love or hate, stored in the heart, pour out through the flesh, as either good or evil. A spirit casts out those treasures through the words and deeds of its managed flesh.
But the Father of the elect wants them to speak every word and do every deed through their spirit’s love and zeal for equitable justice, to always bear fruits from the trees of truth He planted in their lives. And this can only be done by elect spirits whom He awakened, taught and trained, after those elect spirits begin to wisely manage their minds and bodies of flesh. Yet, because so many of these devout Jews heeded the worthless teachings of fake Evangelicals, Jesus told them: “So I reason with you people, that every useless spoken or written word which the people will express, they will repay a word on behalf of it during the judgment day.” If not during their lives in flesh on earth, then on that final day, all elect spirits will repay a word of true repentance for all harmful or wasted words, even for the true words they failed to utter through love. And literally all the elect surely have spoken many words which proved their spirits to be culpable for their sins of the flesh, for much hatred through lies, even the lies they believed through criminal negligence. Each had many rotting fruits of neglected truth, or fruits of lies they allowed to grow in their lives. But the fiery words of Page 902
Mat. 12:22-37, The Unforgivable Sin
Jesus’ rebukes will burn away all that, so their spirits will grow trees of pure truth in heaven, through their repentance. At the same time, all the elect will have at least a few tended trees of genuine truth in the fields of their lives, which produced the fruits of just and pure love. And, by the fruits of these loving words, they will be justified, proved innocent and worthy of heaven. Only the non-elect will completely lack any repentance and justifying fruits, and will repay their lifetimes of useless words with a word of terrified pleading, begging for hell, so they can escape God’s permeating light of truth and love, always radiating from their Judge, Jesus Christ. And He will honour that sad request.
So here Jesus described two kinds of people, a dichotomy. And we sometimes able to discern the high probability of individuals belonging to one kind or the other, whenever “the mouth utters words out of the surplus of the heart.” One kind are God’s elect children, whose bodies and minds of flesh have managing spirits created by God’s breath, that is, from the very substance of the Spirit in God’s heart, in His image. Because elect spirits were created from God’s Spirit, those can only possess the same array of attributes found in the utterly holy Spirit of their Father, but where each is granted a different and limited array of quantities and combinations of God’s attributes, so that all will depend on God and on one another, so all will become one with God and one another. Each is freely given inherent attributes that are useful for each one’s individual destiny on earth and forever in heaven.
And, since this is true, none of the elect will ever be capable of committing the unforgivable sin of slandering the Holy Spirit. For that sin must be done through evil intentions and malicious motives of a spirit. By definition, to be an “unforgivable sin,” it must be an intentional sin deliberately worked through selfish and destructive motives of a spirit against God’s Spirit, through a core and innate hatred of God that will never repent of that sin. It cannot be unintentional, cannot be done through ignorance, deception, coercion or a lack of the spirit’s capacity to control the flesh. It can never be committed by the flesh against the objections of an awake, informed spirit, nor by a spirit that longs to repent into the truth after one’s flesh slanders God. For—just as our utterly holy God is not able to possess any wicked intentions and malicious motives against Himself, against His own Holy Spirit, who is the whole of Himself—elect spirits, created in His image, are also not able to have any wicked intentions and malicious motives against His Holy Spirit either. Yes, the flesh of the elect may deliberately sin and slander innocent souls, or even God Himself. But their spirits cannot.
Only non-elect human spirits and demons can intentionally slander God and others through wicked intentions and malicious motives of their spirits. And they do it through their spirits’ love of dark delusions and lies. Then those spirits defend themselves from the exposing light of truth. And, since all non-elect spirits hate God and His truth, it is impossible for them to repent with a loving resolve to practise truth. Thus, they cannot be forgiven, can never be made loving and just for life in heaven.
This is why God has prepared a void for non-elect spirits, called hell, a bottomless darkness where nothing real exists. This is the only kind of place those non-elect can possibly tolerate, since they all loath the bright, immutable realities of God’s heavenly homeland. In hell, the non-elect, both humans and demons, shall be able to possess all the inner treasures they love most, their cherished delusions and lies. Yet they will never be able to express any of their lies and delusions, never inflict their destructive wills upon any good creations of God. Unreality alone will be their eternal reward, with absolutely nothing to use or abuse, nothing to gratify their desires to be gods. They will never be able to manipulate anything real for their own pleasures. Thus, hell will frustrate and torment them.
After God destroys the earth, where He temporarily allows sin and slander for the training of His elect, He will never let any of the loveless non-elect abuse His good creations again. And, after they receive their new spiritual bodies in hell, their hatred of God’s light will reach its full potential. For bodies made of a spiritual substance will never impede or hinder thoughts and desires of the spirit.
Page 903
So their unhindered hatred of God’s light will become an impassible gulf between them and the full permeating light of heaven. Thus, the non-elect will never dare to escape from hell, toward heaven’s radiant light of truth. All the non-elect will continuously flee deeper into their infinite darkness of hell. All the non-elect will forever fall deeper into hell, never reaching the bottom, since hell is a bottomless spiritual realm. Yet, from heaven’s perspective, that infinite darkness is only a tiny black speck beneath the back leg of God’s throne, and cannot be moved by any being in heaven, except our God. It is so small that it cannot be seen, unless one intentionally looks for it. But who will do that?
So let the elect stop fearing the insignificant spirits of the non-elect, whose destiny is hell. Now it is time for the elect to focus on the tasks at hand. For the elect have much work to do, to train their spirits for heaven. The elect need to nullify countless works of the devil, together with Jesus, so they can then build up the loving, just, equitable, honest, joyful and humble kingdom of God on earth. So the elect need to ignore and abandon the non-elect, whose spirits only become worse throughout their lives, as they grow their lies and delusions but possess ever less substance of reality and truth each day. Non-elect spirits become smaller and less substantive daily, shrinking to an infinitesimal size, so billions of them can fit into tiny speck. Though they may slander us and our God with many physical threats, each possesses nothing but a minuscule fragment of a loveless spirit, since their spirits were all created without God’s most substantial and powerful attributes. Their spirits are dark little dirty things placed in temporary flesh on a material planet which God will soon utterly destroy.
Therefore, although non-elects spirits were granted minds and bodies of flesh that are the same as those of the elect, and their malicious little spirits can use those bodies to overpower the flesh of the elect, if the elect grant them the opportunity to do so, those non-elect are not a big threat to the elect, in reality. For all real power is spiritual and comes from God. Genuine power is worked by spirits, and God has indeed granted elect spirits an immeasurable advantage over non-elect spirits. Not only does the almighty God use His power to make the good, just, loving works of the elect effective, but His counsel makes the elect wiser, while He confounds the plans of the non-elect. So the non-elect might now ruthlessly exploit and destroy countless carnal elect souls, and other physical creations of God. Yet they can only do this while the elect remain spiritually asleep, while the elect walk solely according to their deceived minds of flesh. Nevertheless, all loveless non-elect spirits, even demonic spirits who intentionally and maliciously deceive and exploit God’s elect children, are actually far too small and weak to be able to make any kind of strong stand against awakened elect spirits who walk according to the counsel of Jesus’ Holy Spirit. And the non-elect actually tremble and flee in terror when they see the Spirit of our almighty God, Jesus, and His truths, dwelling in elect hearts.
Mat. 12:38-45,
The Messiah’s Sign
“Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, ‘Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.’ But He answered them, ‘An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given it but the sign of Jonah the prophet. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
“‘The men of Nineveh [who were idol-worshipping Gentiles] will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here. The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with Page 904
Mat. 12:38-45, The Messiah’s Sign
this generation, and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.
“‘But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of the man, passes through waterless places, seeking rest, and doesn’t find it. Then he says, “I will return into my house from which I came out,” and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. Then he goes, and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation’” (Mat. 12:38-45, WEB).
The Evangelical (Pharisaic) scholars once more attacked Jesus and demanded proof that He was the prophesied Messiah. Now, in those days, most Pharisees still believed the Messiah would be God incarnate, although their descendants, today’s the Orthodox Jews, deny that Old Covenant Messianic prophecies declare this. Still, those Scriptures actually do proclaim that the Messiah is the Creator God, Yahweh, walking among us in a body of human flesh, often and in many ways. Since most of these Pharisaic Jewish scholars knew that the Messiah would be God incarnate, they challenged Jesus to provide a sign proving that He is God. For, of course, they did not believe Jesus was the true prophesied and long-promised Messiah, since they thought the Messiah would arrive with typical, Roman-like glory, dressed in rich, shining garments and lording it over “inferiors.” In other words, those Evangelicals did not know the true God of the Bible. Also, these biblical scholars realized that God’s Law forbade them to tell God to prove Himself to be God, since that is the sin of “testing God,” an attempt to make God cater to one’s own human will and desires, instead of seeking to serve God’s good, just, loving will. So their demand for Jesus to prove that He is the Messiah God made it perfectly clear that they thought this humble and compassionately serving Jesus was not really the incarnate God. In reality, these Evangelicals were merely trying to discredit Jesus, to prove that Jesus was not the Messiah God, to turn their dupes away from Jesus. This was why those carnal, greedy, power-hungry, humanistic Evangelical wanted Jesus to perform some kind of magic miracle that none but God could perform, preferably one involving the painful deaths of their Roman enemies. If Jesus could prove that He was a psychopathic kind of God who would exalt them as human gods, with a right to cruelly exploit Gentiles and lesser Jews, then they would follow Him as His disciples.
Their seemingly polite willingness to accept Him as their Messiah, if He gave them a sign, was just a deception, a trick to trap Jesus, to prove that this loving and serving Jesus was not the loving and serving God incarnate, and thus, not the real Messiah. Yet all these Evangelical scholars knew how Jesus had already often proved that He was God, through His many just and loving words and deeds.
God continuously reveals Himself and His attributes to everyone in the world, with many humble proofs that He is God. Likewise, Jesus miraculously healed, commanded terrified demonic spirits to leave the souls of His people, and even commanded His natural creations of wind and waves to cease at His rebuke. All these deeds, and more, revealed that the Creator God was working through Jesus, especially since Jesus did these works in His own name, not God’s name. Jesus did not do any of these deeds by an external God’s command and authority. Rather, Jesus performed all these miracles in His own name, by His own will, through His own authority and His own power, although only God was able to do such works through His own will, authority and power. So all these loving and just miracles did indeed prove that Jesus is God. But these Evangelical scholars lied to the people, and falsely testified that Jesus did these godly works through the power of the devil, even though Satan would not ever want to do any such works through any love for anyone. Satan never speaks words nor ever does works which turn the hearts of the people toward God. Nor did Satan or any of the demons ever possess their own authority to choose to do such things. For the devil always needs Page 905
God’s permission to do anything. Still, many gullible and irrational souls believed the lies of those fake Evangelicals, which nullified the faith of those dupes in the clear evidence of God’s just and loving Spirit dwelling in Jesus. And now, because they counted all the just and loving miracles of Jesus as trash, they demanded a greater and indisputable kind of evidence, either a great devastation of their enemies or something they could easily counter with another of their cunning lies. And Jesus could have actually granted them the kind of evidence they wanted, such as the deaths of all the unbelievers upon the earth, including those fake Evangelicals themselves. However, if Jesus killed all unbelievers, the earth would no longer be a training ground for the elect spirits He appointed to inhabit it during this season of its history. Then our just and loving Jesus was not going to bother granting them yet another sign of God’s personal love, forgiveness, healing and the restoration of His relationship with His elect. For that definitely was not the kind of sign they were seeking, and they would simply lie about it, again. Thus, Jesus granted no such signs to those deceiving reprobates.
To fully understand the implications of this event, we need to step back and analyze it. And it began like this: “Then some of the scholars belonging to the Pharisees had responded to Him saying:
‘Teacher of life and faith, we are willing to experience a sign from You.’ So, having replied, He said this to them: ‘An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For, just as Jonah was in the belly of the large fish [for a time belonging to] three days and three nights, just so will the Son of mankind be in the heart of the earth
[for a time belonging to] three days and three nights,’” (Mat. 12:38-40, from: Τότε ἀπεκρίθησαν
αὐτῷ τινες τῶν γραμματέων καὶ Φαρισαίων λέγοντες· Διδάσκαλε, θέλομεν ἀπὸ σοῦ σημεῖον ἰδεῖν. ὁ
δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· Γενεὰ πονηρὰ καὶ μοιχαλὶς σημεῖον ἐπιζητεῖ, καὶ σημεῖον οὐ δοθήσεται
αὐτῇ εἰ μὴ τὸ σημεῖον Ἰωνᾶ τοῦ προφήτου. ὥσπερ γὰρ ἦν Ἰωνᾶς ἐν τῇ κοιλίᾳ τοῦ κήτους τρεῖς
ἡμέρας καὶ τρεῖς νύκτας, οὕτως ἔσται ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ τῆς γῆς τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ
τρεῖς νύκτας, SBLGNT). So the first thing we need to do is to fully comprehend His Greek words.
First, notice how the ones who demanded this sign were “the scholars belonging to sect called the Pharisees.” The Greek TSKS construction (τῶν γραμματέων καὶ Φαρισαίων) indicates that these were Pharisaic (Evangelical) scholars, biblical experts in the Evangelical churches. So these were men who spent their entire lives studying the Old Covenant Scriptures, but always for political and financial purposes, always to build upon the false teachings of the previous liars who chose them for this purpose, who endorsed them with titles and other accolades. These men, with false motives and intentions, were also responding to Jesus’ teaching about the unforgivable sin of slandering the Holy Spirit, trying to justify themselves, by pretending their intentional sin was unintentional and that they were perfectly willing to believe that Jesus is God, if He gave them a sign to prove it. Yet they had seen how Jesus even cast out demons in His own name, not in the name of God. And—since those Evangelicals had often tried to cast out demons “in thee Lord’s name, ” but failed, because they were actually enemies of God and God refused to lend any of His power to them—they should have then reasoned that, when Jesus cast out demons in His own name, it was clear evidence “proving” that Jesus was approved by God, and was God. And, from the Scriptures, they also should have known that it was utterly impossible to secretly cast out demons through the power of Satan. Their failures and the teachings of God were major flaws in their false reasoning taught to their dupes. The loving motives of Jesus when He did miracles, and His good effects of returning freed souls to faith in God and in God’s words, conclusively proved that Jesus truly was with God, and was God, not against God. In reality, Jesus actually and truly did prove, when He taught God’s true intended meaning of His words in the Scriptures, and when He performed miracles like casting out powerful demons in Page 906
Mat. 12:38-45, The Messiah’s Sign
His own name, that He is Yahweh God dwelling in a body of human flesh. Therefore, these blind and irrational scholars were very self-confident and cunning, but all their rhetoric was a self-serving lie.
Now let me take the time to explain the phrase, τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ τρεῖς νύκτας (“three days and three nights”) once again. This phrase was the ancient Jewish way of indicating any period of time within three biblically defined days. And, in Scriptures, God always defined a day as a period of time which began at sunset and ended at the next sunset. Then any time within that period belonged to that day, and not to the next day. So three days referred to any parts of three days, any portion of the first 12
daylight hours or any portion of the 12 nighttime hours. And it almost never referred to 72 hours, because they never thought in terms of days being 24 hour periods beginning at any time of the day or night, like the Romans did or as we do today. Thus, if the first part of those “three days and three nights” began a few minutes before sunset on the first day, then ended just a few minutes after sunrise on the third day, the ancient Jews considered this to be “three days and three nights,” since that period of time contained parts of daylight and nighttime hours from three days of the week. The time period would include (1) a few minutes at the end of the first day, before sunset, (2) the whole second day, and (3) and a few minutes of the third day, after sunrise. So, when God sent Jonah to demand repentance from the Gentile citizens of Nineveh, and he was swallowed by a large fish, he remained in the belly of that fish for “three days and three nights,” which was likely just a little more than 24 hours (see Jonah 1:17). At first, he likely thought he was as good as dead, although he could still breath air from the swim bladder above the stomach of the fish. So he prayed, and that prayer appeared to be a Messianic prophecy (Jonah 2:1-9). Then Jesus affirmed that Jonah’s prayer was indeed a Messianic prophecy, stating that His body would die, be buried “down to the bottoms of the mountains,” where “the earth barred [Him] in forever.” Yet Jesus would remain there only for a short time, for the same amount of time that Jonah was in the belly of the fish. After three days and three nights (after about 25 to 72 hours), He will have “brought up [His] life ... from the pit” (Jonah 2:6).
Of course, this prophecy came true. Jesus said He, “the Son of mankind,” would “be in the heart of the earth [for a time belonging to] three days and three nights,” then would be resurrected to life, just as Jonah was, figuratively. For, at the end of His first ministry on earth, Jesus was murdered, and His body was buried in the earth, in a rich man’s tomb, and that tomb was a cave dug into the side of a
“mountain” (i.e., the word translated as “mountain” refers to any high place, and can also refers to what we might call a “hill” in English). However, likely within less than 36 hours, well within the period of time the Jews called “three days and three nights,” the body of Jesus rose from the dead.
Next, we need to understand why Jesus said this: “An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” Well, to understand this, first notice how the biblical scholars from the Evangelical church spoke to Jesus, saying,
“Teacher of life and faith, we are willing to experience a sign from You.” In front of everyone, they wanted to look polite, devout and reasonable. Also, they certainly did not want to rile those who truly loved and respected Jesus, since many of His disciples were potential dupes whom they might be able to deceive and exploit for their own profit and pleasure. This is why they addressed Jesus with the honourable title of Διδάσκαλε, meaning “Teacher of life and faith,” to pretend that they recognized Jesus as an equal biblical scholar and teacher of God’s Word, just like them. But that was a lie. Obviously, like the vast majority of Evangelical scholars today, they did not possess any real respect for Jesus. However, they actually did mean what they said when they announced that they were “willing to experience a sign” from Jesus. For they were truly willing, as long as that “sign”
was either: (1) the utter subjugation of all the opponents, so they could then bow before Him with fake adoration and could hopefully win His favour, so He might then make them rich and powerful, Page 907
or (2) the kind of sign they could twist into another false and misleading accusation against Jesus.
And notice how they wanted only “signs,” not genuine evidence that Jesus was their real Messiah and the loving God who personally cares for each elect soul enough to teach and train each one to wisely apply the truth, and even enough to heal each one’s flesh. These scholars already received plenty of this kind of evidence. All heard Jesus teach God’s true interpretations of God’s Word, in ways they could not dispute. And all saw Him work many personal miracles which produced many godly effects of love, justice and the sanctification of souls, setting multitudes apart for God’s holy purposes. Thus, to every truly loving, rational, just and honest spirit, all this evidence clearly proved that Jesus was indeed the prophesied Messiah and God. Yet these fake Evangelicals rejected that mountain of solid evidence, because their evil and adulterous spirits care nothing for true evidence.
Now, as we interpret these words of Jesus, we also must realize that we cannot always use the most basic lexical meanings of the words. That is, we cannot always substitute the English gloss for that Greek word. Rather, in all we hear and read, we need to comprehend the real meaning of the words in context. Of course, the contextual meaning is almost always related to the lexical meaning, and we must never redefine the Greek words in any political or denominational ways, like some do. But, for everything spoken or written in Greek, those words point to a more specific area of meaning within its local and global context. The local context tells us specifically what the word refers to. Then the global context is the entire Bible, and tells us how the religious Jews and the apostolic church used that word, that is, its ecclesiastical meaning. The words of Jesus and these Jewish Evangelicals are no exception. So, when we interpret the word “sign” in its local context, we clearly see that Jesus used the word “sign” to indicate the only kind of proof that the kind of Evangelical’s own “evil and adulterous generation” would accept and believe. Then, the global context of His use of the word
“sign” points back to the laws of God, the laws forbidding God’s priesthood of Israel from trusting anyone’s words solely because that one had somehow produced signs and wonders. Rather, God commanded His servants to weigh all the words of all human beings, even if a person manifested signs and wonders before their very eyes. God told the elect to “inquire, and make search, and ask diligently,” to judge all of a person’s words, to examine all the evidence that proved or disproved any of the claims that anyone made, to find out “if it is true, and the thing certain” (see Deut. 13:1-18).
So, when Jesus told us “an evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign,” He was saying that this was an unjust kind of people who refuse to do the diligent and difficult work of carefully examining, investigating, evaluating, questioning, prioritizing and meditating upon real evidence, the hard labours of thinking through all possible scenarios in which the facts fit together, until God guides one’s spirit into a sound, honest, rational conclusion. Instead, this selfish, self-serving kind of people works only for financial and political gain, for the pleasures of the flesh. Then their self-justifying fake religion lazily “seeks for a sign,” some magical display that will entertain their evil hearts and spirits, while they keep on believing whatever lies they want to believe, without exerting spiritual or moral effort for the truth. They want “luck” from God to “save” them from ravages of other loveless, selfish souls like themselves on earth, since they greatly fear that they might be treated as terrible as they treat their other siblings in the family of mankind. At the same time, they hate the light of truth and reality, but want to keep on deluding themselves, and want to continue dreaming that they are gods who can control the thoughts and judgments of the Creator, through their words and works on earth. They still think they can sneak into a carnal eternal paradise, where they will forever live a perfectly selfish life, always reclining in comfort, while God and others serve them hand and foot.
Thus, they do not want true, biblical salvation. They only want a fleshy salvation, one that makes their earthly lives more pleasurable, rich and powerful. However, these are the rewards that Satan Page 908
Mat. 12:38-45, The Messiah’s Sign
grants to his preferred citizens in his world order, to those who are faithful to him and to his lies.
They seek only demonically inspired idolatry, the white and black witchcraft which appeases human gods until those gods appease one’s lusts of the flesh and cater to the desires of their carnal human wills. And they hate the real God, because He never caters to the ignorant and often sinful wills of human beings! In fact, the real God condemns all forms of idolatry and witchcraft because they both involve self-worship. What the real God wants for His elect children, and what God actually gives to His beloved children, is inwardly satisfying works for the training and strengthening of their spirits, to prepare their spirits for predestined eternal works in heaven. And the whole reason God created the earth and the material universe was to provide a place where this teaching and training of zeal for God and for His creations could occur, a place where both good and evil could exist, side by side, a place separated from the utterly holy heaven, where only absolute truths and genuine realities exist to enable all to build up love. The only reason elect spirits were sent to live in flesh on earth is to learn and grow, to experience both good and evil, to discern between them, then grow an insatiable appetite for good, for all that is just and loving, for God and all elect creatures. Therefore, the “evil and adulterous generation” that Jesus referred to here was actually the world order governed by non-elect souls, allowed to exist only for a short season on earth. But, when Jesus returns, He will destroy them. Then that generation will no walk on earth, except for a moment at the end of the millennium.
Jesus declared that His resurrection from the dead, after “three days and three nights,” would be the only “sign” He would ever grant to that “evil and adulterous generation,” which included all those unforgivable Evangelical scholars who slandered the Holy Spirit. So this kind of “sign” for their non-elect spirits was not the kind they would want to see. Of course, most non-elect minds of flesh reject the resurrection of Jesus as a myth, although their spirits know that our God Jesus did rise from the dead, to teach and train the elect for their salvation, and so He could return to crush the devil’s world order into dust. Still, many religious non-elect from that ruthless, greedy, exploiting, murdering generation liked the idea of a “magic” which allowed one to rise from the dead. Such a power strongly appealled to their their spirits, which sought to be gods. For they could forever gain things of the flesh and make their spirits feel like gods. They yearned to live eternally in bodies of flesh on earth, so they could forever exploit God’s creations for the gratification of their flesh. Since their spirits never truly wanted to learn and grow through diligence and the counsel of Christ’s Holy Spirit, and spurned any clear evidence of truth that required the hard work of processing it or even repentance into it, they liked the idea of a magic “sign” like His resurrection. But, of course, they would only interpret that “sign” through their lies and delusions, to affirm and excite their lies and delusions. They would only see the “sign” of Jesus’ resurrection as a way to grant them eternal life in a false and very earth-like heaven, where they could forever exploit others for their own pleasures.
But, back in reality, the awakened elect did not see the resurrection of Jesus as the kind of “sign” that the “evil and adulterous generation” wanted. Rather, we see Jesus’ resurrection as evidence that He was not just another great human teacher, not just another human prophet or enlightened Buddha. We understand that Jesus was not merely God dwelling in a body of flesh for a time, who then left us with a few fascinating words of wisdom that we could interpret in whatever ways we desired, then forever parted from us. Jesus raised His physical flesh from the dead so that He would not abandon us like orphans in this harsh wilderness of the earth, as prey for Satan’s pets, as food for the wolves in the den of that devil’s world order. No! Jesus came to us as our God, who then proved that He would live forever, so He could serve our spirits dwelling in flesh on earth, as our eternal Teacher and Counsellor, as our protecting Guard who infallibly preserves our most valuable treasures of the heart, as the Provider of all we need for an abundant life of love on earth, as well as for a much Page 909
greater eternal life after that. Jesus rose from the dead so that He could teach and train our spirits to do His works with Him on earth and in heaven, to nullify the works of the devil on earth and to build up His kingdom on earth, so that His kingdom on earth, with all its treasures, could rise to heaven.
Above all, the resurrection of His body provided evidence that God grants all His elect children a total freedom from their entire lifetimes of sins committed through their flesh. Because Jesus rose from the dead, and now lives to teach and train our spirits while we live in these bodies of flesh, our flesh has died with His flesh on the cross. Now our spirits can dwell in our living flesh through His redeeming resurrected flesh. For the death of His flesh was not enough to rid us of our sins. If He died, but left our ignorant and infantile spirits asleep, untaught and floundering in sin, His death would mean nothing. His flesh rose from the dead to complete His sin sacrifice with the ratification of His promise to sanctify our spirits, to teach and train our spirits until the end of that last day, to perfect us. Due to the inner works of the resurrected and living Jesus, which purifies and equips our spirits for eternal life, our flesh died with Him on that cross and we are no longer in our sins. And this allows the utterly holy God, who cannot aid and abet sin, to work inside us. Thus, all the elect who will all leave their flesh behind on earth will not perish in hell, but will be completed in their knowledge, skills and love on the judgment day, for eternal life in their predestined home of heaven.
So the resurrection of Christ’s body may be magical “sign” to the “evil and adulterous generation” of the non-elect, even a kind of witchcraft that they hope upon for material gain and an imagined kind of an eternal life with infinite pleasures for their flesh. And many false churches will preach this kind of witchcraft. However, in reality, Christ’s resurrection never was, and never will be, that kind of a
“sign.” If His resurrection is any kind of a sign, it is a biblical kind of sign, an evidentiary kind of sign. For God gave us the resurrection of His body of flesh as the evidence of His New Covenant promises for our salvation, to indicate that He will surely live to teach and train our spirits to utter completion and perfection, to become entirely prepared to live and serve with Him in heaven. His resurrection is the evidence that He will begin this salvation process while we live in these bodies of flesh on earth. Even while we live in flesh, He will teach our spirits to repent into the genuine truth and love, into all that the Holy Spirit of our resurrected and living Jesus teaches us. Our heavenly Father will overlook our sins of our flesh, count our living flesh to be dead and crucified in His own flesh on that cross, while He continues His infallible redeeming works to save our infantile spirits.
Here Jesus directly associated the resurrection of His flesh from the dead with repentance into the truth, and with the wisdom that rightly applies this truth in our abundantly loving and just lives. For He said to that “evil and adulterous generation,” to the false church who merely received His body’s resurrection as their desired kind of magical sign: “Ninevite men will stand up in the judgment, [to identify the guilty and to testify about their sins] among this generation, and they will condemn it, because they repented [i.e., because many of those pagan Gentile Ninevites repented] into the proclamation [of God’s truths from God’s Word] from Jonah. And look, one greater [than] Jonah [is] here. A queen of the south will be awakened in the judgment, [to identify the guilty and to testify about the sins] among this generation, and she will condemn it, because she came from the farthest parts of the earth to have heard the wisdom of Solomon. And look, one greater [than] Solomon [is] here” (Mat. 12:41-42, from: ἄνδρες
Νινευῖται ἀναστήσονται ἐν τῇ κρίσει μετὰ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης καὶ κατακρινοῦσιν αὐτήν· ὅτι
μετενόησαν εἰς τὸ κήρυγμα Ἰωνᾶ, καὶ ἰδοὺ πλεῖον Ἰωνᾶ ὧδε. βασίλισσα νότου ἐγερθήσεται ἐν τῇ
κρίσει μετὰ τῆς γενεᾶς ταύτης καὶ κατακρινεῖ αὐτήν· ὅτι ἦλθεν ἐκ τῶν περάτων τῆς γῆς ἀκοῦσαι τὴν
σοφίαν Σολομῶνος, καὶ ἰδοὺ πλεῖον Σολομῶνος ὧδε, SBLGNT). So here we see how Jesus used only pagan Gentiles, whose awakened elect spirits recognized the truth of God’s just and loving Page 910
Mat. 12:38-45, The Messiah’s Sign
ways as soon as they heard it, who repented into that truth with zeal, to shame the fake Evangelicals who were so proud of their high status as the great teachers of Yahweh’s Word, but taught only lies.
Now, when Jesus used the preposition μετά with a genitive in the phrase μετὰ τῆς γενεᾶς, and this phrase modified the actions of the subject “in the judgment” (ἐν τῇ κρίσει), the prepositional phrase indicated that the subject’s actions were to identify the guilty “among this generation,” and to testify about their sins, like an expert witness in a courtroom witness box. So Jesus was saying that both the men of Nineveh and the “queen of the south” would identify and testify against the elders and the members of the false Evangelical churches who refused to repent into the truth and did not value the loving, just wisdom of God. So let me review the qualifications of these “expert witnesses,” starting with the men of Nineveh. God had once called Jonah to proclaim a warning to idolatrous Gentiles in the city of Nineveh. For that city had been committing so many wicked acts of violence and unjust oppression against both Jews and other Gentiles. Thus, God’s patience reached its limit. So God wanted Jonah to warn them that He would surely destroy Nineveh if a significant remnant of men in that city did not turn away from their sins, into His truths of justice and love. Yet Jonah refused to go, since he clung to a deep and bitter resentment against them, and did not even want to give them the slightest opportunity to repent for the forgiveness of their sins. So he got on a ship to travel in the opposite direction, as far from Nineveh as possible, hoping the voice of his conscience would stop plaguing his soul regarding God’s merciful mission to warn the Ninevites about their impending doom, lest they repent and save themselves. But it is impossible to run from the conscience of one’s own elect spirit, or to flee from God. Still, Jonah was determined to escape and doom all Nineveh.
Therefore, God interceded. God would not allow His child to avoid these lessons for his spirit. So God sent a storm which forced Jonah’s shipmates to throw him overboard. Then God commanded a huge fish to swallow Jonah and carry him back to the shore, where it then vomited Jonah out of its stomach, likely near a village that could help him travel to Nineveh. And the fish itself was a sign from God, since Nineveh was named after a goddess represented by a fish. So Jonah grudgingly went to Nineveh and proclaimed that God would destroy their city if they did not repent within forty days. And, much to the dismay and disgust of Jonah, many of those sinful but elect Gentiles did actually repent. They even wore sackcloth and fasted, to chastise their flesh, so their spirits would gain control over the desires of their flesh. So, after God saw how their spirits “turned from their evil way,” He forgave them, and did not destroy the city during their entire lifetime (see Jonah 3:5-10).
Think about this. Elect Gentiles, most of whom had never read nor heard a single word from the Scriptures, repented into God’s truth that had been grudgingly proclaimed by a prophet who hated them. And they repented during the Old Covenant times, long before Jesus demonstrated how God’s Law and teachings can begin to be fulfilled in and through our spirits. Yet these Evangelicals hated and opposed their God in the flesh, just as fake churches do today, even though they had unlimited access to God’s Word, and heard the words of their incarnate God Jesus, but refused to turn away from their loveless ways, and spurned God salvation. So, at the judgment day, those repentant elect Gentile sinners from Nineveh, from the days of Jonah, whose loving, just, humble, repentant spirits will still remain within the priesthood of Israel at the gates of heaven, shall stand up and point to each of those stubborn sinners from fake churches, identifying them as hypocrites who were granted a far greater opportunity to repent than they had themselves, but refused. For those pagan Ninevites will see what is in the hearts of those psychopathic, lying, selfishly ambitious Evangelicals. After all, those Ninevites had experienced non-elect rulers sent to them by Satan, and saw how they caused them to murder, enslave, plunder and exploit, in ways that brought their elect hearts only vexation in deep depression. Thus, they repented into the just and loving ways that Jonah preached. Then they Page 911
opposed and nullified the works of those human devils, and started to learn and walk in the ways that Jonah taught. Thus, after all these experiences, those elect from Nineveh will not only recognize those fakes as the non-elect, but also soundly condemn them for their hardness of heart, since those fakes received much more truth to expose their sins, yet clung to their self-serving lies and delusions.
After those false churches are condemned by elect Ninevites for their lack of repentance, the queen of the south shall also condemn them for clinging their foolish, ignorant, carnal, selfish, exploitative, murderous ways. Now the obvious reason this “queen of Sheba” had come to Solomon was because she was worried about her ability to care for the people of her land. She seemed to think her current advisors did not provide adequately wise counsel, and their poor decisions were causing her people to suffer. So, when she heard about Solomon’s wisdom, she packed up many very expensive items and headed for the relatively small but wealthy kingdom of Israel, where she intended to give those costly goods to Solomon, in exchange for his wise counsel. For Solomon had prayed to God for the wisdom to serve the priestly nation of Israel rightly and wisely. And God granted this to him. Now, after being disappointed by the self-serving and destructive advice of many “great” men before this, that queen was likely prepared to be equally disappointed with the same old nonsense spewing from Solomon’s mouth. But Solomon’s words, all pertaining to the ways of his God, captured her heart.
This queen had come to “prove” Solomon’s wisdom “concerning Yahweh’s name” (I Kings 10:1).
She wanted to know more about Solomon’s God, about how the attributes and characteristics of that God effectively influenced his thoughts and decisions for the good of his people. So she tested him like metal in a furnace, with many difficult questions, asking him how he would solve many kinds of problems. Then, after some days of hearing his reasoning, and seeing how he treated his servants and staff, “there was no more spirit in her” (I Kings 10:5). In other words, her spirit’s guarded distrust turned into complete faith and she trusted in all he told her about his God. She saw the wisdom of his God’s laws and ways, in the justice and love of Yahweh. Then she declared, “I didn’t believe the words, until I came, and my eyes had seen it. Behold, the half was not told me! Your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard. Happy are your men, happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you, who hear your wisdom. Blessed is Yahweh your God, who delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel. Because Yahweh loved Israel forever, therefore made he you ki
ng, to do justice and righteousness ” (I Kings 10:7-9). In the God of Solomon, this queen from a distant pagan Gentile land finally found counsel that would enable her to benefit her people wisely.
Looking at her words, we clearly see that this queen did not journey through dangerous deserts and wilderness, then give away all those extremely costly gifts, to get a little selfish gratification of her fleshy pride and desires. Rather, her loving, awakened elect spirit sought the kind of wisdom which effectively applied genuine spiritual and moral truths, in a way which brought true justice to all of her people, which built up loving righteousness within her people. And she clearly did not think money could solve her kingdom’s spiritual, moral and physical problems, or she would not have spent so much of her wealth to get this wisdom from Solomon’s God. If this loving woman was foolish, she might have spent that vast sum to purchase tangible goods and services that physically benefited her people, without first nullifying the works of Satan, without determining the wisest, most just, most effective ways of using her wealth for their benefit. Yet her loving elect spirit knew enough to cast aside the worship of ruthless money. She realized that the injustice and suffering in her land originated from a spiritual and moral deficiency. Thus, her land’s problems required rightly applied truth, which is what the Scriptures call “wisdom.” Only God’s real wisdom could lead her people into a “happy” and “blessed” life, which would also result in a productive and prosperous physical existence for all as well. A pursuit of God’s equitable wisdom was the only reason she so Page 912
Mat. 12:38-45, The Messiah’s Sign
desperately and diligently sought Solomon, the king who openly confessed that all his wisdom was a gift from Yahweh through his prayers, and because those prayers of his spirit were uttered for the sake of his people (see I Kings 3:7-9). For, whenever God sees a remnant of faithful, loving elect souls in a land, He grants that land a government consisting of loving elect souls. Then God causes those elect authorities to seek His truth and wisdom for the sakes of their people. But, if all the elect remain carnal and faithless, God abandons their land to delusions, to destructive, unjust foolishness.
So, a thousand years later, Jesus prophesied about how this queen will testify during the judgment day. And this will surely occur. The loving elect spirit of this queen will still live in a new body at the gates of heaven. Then she will observe the selfish leaders from the false churches, all teaching and believing the same kinds of ignorant and unjust concepts that she had heard from her own arrogant, self-serving and unjust counsellors in her day. So she will instantly recognize them as the non-elect and point them out. During that long day of judging, she will identify all those lying elders and all their willingly deceived disciples, as hate-filled enemies of God. And she will ask hard questions that expose the wickedness in their hearts. Their self-contradicting answers will prove them to be liars, will prove that none had sought real truth and wisdom to win “justice and righteousness” for the benefit of their people, that none were lovingly serving souls, that none were ever concerned about the welfare of God’s elect children, that none had spirits fit for heaven’s labours. She will also point out how most of these religious fools also had unlimited access to far greater truth and wisdom from the Bible, even the teaching of their Messiah Jesus, God incarnate, who is infinitely wiser than His younger brother Solomon. Yet those “leaders” of the fake Evangelical churches, just the fakes who
“lead” the churches in our day, were not even willing to walk across their room to pick that Book off their bookshelf, nor spend the time to pray, read and meditate upon its wondrous words. Exposing all of this, she will soundly condemn them all as unloving, unjust and unfaithful sinners worthy of hell.
At the same time, countless other elect spirits, just like the elect of Nineveh and that elect queen of the south, will also point to those blind guides of those false church, and testify about their total lack of repentance into the truth and wisdom of God, about all the lies and delusions cherished by their wicked souls. For, after all the spirits that ever lived on earth shall receive their new spiritual bodies, not one of their thoughts and memories from their days in flesh on earth will be lost, nor hidden from all the other spirits standing before our Judge on that day. There will be a complete transparency of all their spirits’ intentions and motives for all their words and deeds while they lived on earth. Every spirit shall see clearly into the minds of every other spirit, much like God can see into the minds of our spirits now. Every spirit’s eyes will be able to focus on every tiny detail of everyone’s life on earth, instantly, or else pan out to view all the horizons of one’s life. So none will be able to escape a just verdict from the elect. Truth will be revealed. Thus, all the elect will repent into the truth on the judgment day, into effective wisdom of their Judge, as soon as they hear Him teach it to them. But the non-elect, who love only the darkness of their lies and delusions, will flee from all that exposing spiritual light at heaven’s gate, into the darkness of hell, to escape the unrelenting truths from God.
Then notice how Matthew provided an explanation of what often happens when a demon is cast out of a man who does not have Jesus dwelling in his soul (Mat. 12:43-45). Logically, this explanation should have been provided after Christ’s previous statements, after He figuratively described how a strong man’s house can only be plundered after that strong man is bound (i.e., after Mat. 12:29-30).
For Luke logically put this teaching about what occurs after a demon is cast out (Luke 11:24-26) after His teaching about how the stronger Spirit first binds the weaker (Luke 11:21-23). So, although we already discussed the first teaching, the reason Matthew placed His second teaching here instead might warrant a short review of the message of the first teaching, to see how all nicely fits together.
Page 913
Why did Matthew choose to delay the teaching about how a demonic spirit might return to a person after being cast out, if that person does not have the Holy Spirit of Jesus dwelling with his spirit in his heart? Well, Matthew obviously wanted to give us this teaching after Jesus told us about how the false Evangelicals will be condemned for refusing to repent when a prophet who is infinitely greater than Jonah came to warn them, and also after Jesus explained how they were refusing to seek God’s wisdom even when one infinitely wiser than Solomon was teaching them at their doorsteps. For their lack of repentance and lack of wisdom clearly proved that Christ’s Holy Spirit was not dwelling in their hearts. So His absence would enable a previously cast-out demon to return to each one’s soul.
An expelled demon, after being ejected from a soul with a foolish and unrepentant spirit, from a soul without God dwelling in it, may search for another soul to invade and claim as its own property. But, if that evil spirit does not find another home, it may return to its previously stolen abode, to the soul it falsely claimed to own by the right of conquest. Then it will decide to dwell there again, if “it finds
[the soul] being unoccupied, having been swept clean and having been arranged in an orderly way”
(Mat. 13:43, from: εὑρίσκει σχολάζοντα σεσαρωμένον καὶ κεκοσμημένον, SBLGNT). A key word in this clause is the present participle form of σχολάζω, indicating that the man’s soul is not currently occupied by its owner, who is God. If no Holy Spirit of our God Jesus is there, that one will have no power to stop that demon from moving in again. Then that evil spirit will want company. So it will invite other demons to dwell with it, as many as it needs to completely rule every aspect of one’s life, which is implied by the number “seven” (Mat. 12:45). After this, the life of that person will become so evil and wretched, so bound by dark delusions and lies, that life will become unbearable.
And notice how Matthew ended this teaching: “Just so, it will be also for this evil generation” (Mat.
12:45b, from: οὕτως ἔσται καὶ τῇ γενεᾷ ταύτῃ τῇ πονηρᾷ, SBLGNT). So Matthew was saying that this teaching was about the fake Evangelicals who went to Jesus, or to His true disciples, to have a demon cast out. Such do not want God dwelling in their souls after He frees them from a demon. So they may be repossessed in a way that is multiple times worse than they had been before. Even if they cleanse their lives, and sweep out every kind of sin, it will not help them. And, no matter how orderly their lives become, or how much they decorate it with the trappings of outward religion, their previous demon will return and bring seven other demons with it, to rule every thought and action of their existence. For God may overlook many sins of the flesh, but never false religion practised in His name. All who live by false teachings, false prophecies and ruthless deeds, all done in His name, will be handed over to demons for the deluding of their flesh and spirits, so they will go from bad to worse. For their spirits refuse to love the truth, refuse to repent into the truth which Christ’s Spirit teaches when He knocks on the door of the heart and expects one to let Him in. Such spirits have not earnestly sought Jesus, to hear His just, loving wisdom. So Jesus is not able to allow His utterly holy Spirit to dwell in their falsely religious hearts, beside their unloving, unjust and evil spirits. And, although He may cast out a demon for the sake of their loved ones, those unrepentant ones may soon be possessed again, and grow worse. “For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in it and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first” (II Pet. 2:20, WEB). Lovers of darkness cannot escape destruction, but always go from bad to worse, because they never help others escape from the destruction they cause through their own selfish darkness. On the day of the harvest, on the judgment day, all the loveless non-elect will reap what they sowed, and they all sowed hell.
Whenever Jesus declares condemnation for the loveless non-elect, He will usually also proclaim His promise of redemption for the elect, with forgiveness and an atonement of His restored relationship.
The elect children of the heavenly Father require the existence of the non-elect during their lives on Page 914
Mat. 12:38-45, The Messiah’s Sign
earth, for the instructional judgment of their lives on earth. This is because sin on earth is necessary to teach and train elect spirits to love God and His creations more fervently, in a way that the sinless heaven cannot accomplish. On the judgment day, our Judge will use the experiential knowledge of all that opposes His just and loving attributes, that is, all loveless and unjust lies and sins on earth, to build up a greater love for all which manifest God’s attributes. All the elect learn and experience from God on that day, and while the lived on earth, will be compared to the lies and evil their spirits had witnessed on earth. And the stark contrast will forever make their spirits love God and His ways more, while it eternally cements their hatred of all that falls short of God’s good opinion. Then the sinning elect will also love their heavenly more because He forgave their sins and fully restored His close relationship with them, without punishment, by taking their just punishment upon Himself.
The only reason God created the earth, as a place where both non-elect and elect spirits temporarily dwell, where His elect children are infantile and helpless, was so His beloved elect would need Him, seek Him, and grow closer to Him in the presence of His enemies. Through controlled conflicts with demons and their non-elect human children, elect spirits learn to love love and hate hate, just as their Father does. For the elect spirits were created in His image, and naturally gravitate into the ways of their heavenly Father. So life on earth educates and provides educational materials for the judgment day, where all will learn to serve beside their Father for eternity. All will work beside Him, tending to the myriads of the living beings in heaven forever. This loving service for God, one another and all that is alive will bind all together, and grow their spirits infinitely, to become ever more like God.
The Father’s elect children need to grow a love for Him and His ways that will be far greater than the love possessed by all the other spirits in heaven. His elect had to begin life on earth, so they can gain a knowledge of both good and evil, so the minds of their spirits can learn to zealously discern between good and evil, between love and lovelessness, between truth and lies. This fervent love and discernment had to be deeply ingrained and solidified in the minds of their spirits, through personal experiences. To develop a foundational discernment, His elect children required an earthly life which saw and felt the effects of lies and sins committed by both non-elect and their own elect spirits, as well as God’s condemnation of those loveless and deliberate lies and sins, but His total forgiveness for His loving and unintentionally sinning elect spirits, because they innately loved truth and later repented into that truth, then also forgave and loved their equally sinning elect brothers and sisters.
A beautiful hopeful message to the elect sits behind all Jesus said against the fake Evangelicals. For He was telling us that His resurrection is the evidence of His New Covenant promise, which was to redeem us by His work of writing His Law, His just and wise love, upon our hearts, for our eternal salvation. His resurrection will carry us through all our suffering and sins, into heaven itself. On that day, He will teach and train our spirits to perfection, complete His work in us by the end of that last day. And on that day, at the gates of heaven, literally all the elect will repent into the proclamations of Jesus. For all the corruptions in our spirits will be washed away, since Jesus is greater than Jonah.
Therefore, if the elect Gentiles of Nineveh, who were never corrupted by any false teachings and lies from fake churches, repented into Jonah’s grudging, weak proclamations of God’s truths, then surely all the elect will repent into Jesus’ earnest, strong words of truth. And the elect will also grow ever wiser until that day ends, because they are learning wisdom directly from Jesus, even an infinitely greater wisdom than that loving queen of the south could ever learn from Solomon. We all will wisely serve His creations in heaven, in righteous ways with loving justice, as we labour beside our spirits’ Father and oldest Brother. And all those we serve will be happy and blessed. For, if the elect Gentile queen of the south, through Solomon, found enough wisdom to make her people happy and blessed, surely our infinitely greater wisdom in Jesus will lead all of us into joyful eternal blessings.
Page 915
Mat. 12:46-50,
Identifying the Elect
“While He was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and His brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to Him. One said to Him, ‘Behold, Your mother and Your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to You.’ But He answered him who spoke to Him, ‘Who is My mother? Who are My brothers?’ He stretched out His hand towards His disciples, and said, ‘Behold, My mother and My brothers!’ For whoever does the will of My Father who is in heaven, he is My brother, and sister, and mother’” (Mat. 12:46-50, WEB).
In this weaponless war, which must be won for the freedom and building of God’s just kingdom, we need a way to truly identify other faithful citizens of God’s kingdom. For, during the tribulations of the end times, only a remnant of the united, compassionate, caring, just and loving elect will survive, but all the divisive, ruthless, uncaring, unjust and unloving will perish. So we must learn to identify and gather with those whose elect are able to love. Yet cannot rely solely upon the outward evidence of their loyalty to God. For many non-elect enemies of God wear spoken confessions of faith and church memberships like uniforms of God’s army, like official army name tags and other superficial tokens of allegiance to God. For enemies can put on uniforms and official army name tags on their bodies of flesh, or display cheap tokens of esteem to make others think they are fighting for our good kingdom’s cause. The spirits of our enemies are definitely willing to lie under oath or recite the truth in any creed as they work to corrupt and nullify the power of those truths. A demon’s human child can put on a nice suit with a cross under the shirt, then carry a Bible and utter a few pious words. But only God’s child possesses a spirit that can actually learn to justly love from the Holy Spirit of Jesus.
So, as we fight for the spiritual liberty and lives of our siblings and all others, we need some kind of internal and more reliable way of identifying our true siblings in God’s family. We must know who we can rely on to fight together with us. We also must identify who needs rescuing from slavery in the enemy kingdom. And we must not be betrayed as we try to rescue the elect from the enemy. For, if we mistakenly think an enemy is our brother, the results could be devastating. If enemies, posing as messengers of the King, send us on fake urgent missions, we will waste our precious time and resources. It will cause us to forfeit good opportunities to save our real brothers or sisters who have been deceived by Satan’s cunning liars, and are now suffering in desperate circumstances. If we do not recognize a disguised enemy, he or she may also lead us into a trap, where we lose our freedom and our lives. Worse yet, a spy might lure us into helping him with his fake “good works,” which he designed to enslave or destroy our good King’s family, and to sabotage our kingdom’s infrastructure.
Of course, almost all our elect siblings in churches today have totally committed all their time and resources to enslaving and murdering their beloved siblings, as well as to crushing every source of water, food and power in Jesus Christ’s loving, just kingdom. Under the leadership of demonically inspired liars, who put on a nicely tailored “Christian” uniforms, which were manufactured by slave labour in the devil’s workshops, the elect now fight tooth and nail against their elect siblings and against God’s just kingdom. Most elect have sworn a solemn oath, in the name of a fake “Jesus,”
who is actually Satan, to oppose the real Jesus and His kingdom, to hate all that is loving, just and truly pleasing to God. Then the masses of those elect are sent out to die in vain, to wildly rage and shout curses against their more faithful siblings, thus, against their heavenly Father. Then, while their human gods gut-laugh at their naive and self-destructive ignorance, those elect think this is because they have not tried hard enough to please those liars. So they double their efforts to please them, and more fervently spill innocent blood, including their own. But, believe or not, the real Jesus does not Page 916
Mat. 12:46-50, Identifying the Elect
want us to labour for Satan, to murder His beloved and destroy His kingdom. I know this is hard for most elect to understand, but the real Jesus wants us to help our siblings and serve His just kingdom.
So, to help us and our deceived siblings, so we all might work together and beside one another as we all grow into mature siblings, labouring to build up Christ’s loving and just kingdom as we nullify the works of the devil, we first need to correctly identify one another. But, in our day, almost all teachers of God’s Word claim that it is a vile sin to even attempt to judge souls by the fruits of their spirits, by the effective results of their words and deeds, by how much God endorses and empowers those good works. For they oppose this command of Jesus to judge by the fruits of the spirit. For they all want us to judge only by superficial criteria, such as race, clothing, wealth, creeds, political affiliations and other outward appearances, by all that Jesus commanded us to ignore in all of our judgments. Now almost all the elect refuse to obey Jesus and their heavenly Father in this matter of right judgments. Thus, if a beast, if a high-ranking soldier of Satan, is dressed in the uniform of a good Churchian and comes to the elect, with many of his ruthless spiritual prostitutes by his side, the elect will ignore all the evil spiritual fruits of that psychopath, all the devil’s medals of dishonour pinned to his chest, and invite him to serve them as their highest god, whom they will worship with all their esteem and unquestioning service. They will turn a blind eye to Satan dwelling inside that monster, and not even notice how he murders innocent lives, nor his sexual exploitation, nor any of his countless of acts of fraud and theft. As for his thousands of destructive lies and slandering, even his blasphemy against the Holy Spirit of our God Jesus, they will praise him for this, and even call him a “genius.” Then they will tell themselves, “He said he is our spiritual leader and our god. So he must be, because he said so and he outwardly looks like he is. Thus, let us not judge him by his evil spiritual works, but worship him. We will serve him and blindly obey his commands to lie and sin.”
When a demonic beast tells most elect that he came to lead them into a carnal kind of “victory” in the name of Jesus, the elect instantly believe that one’s false claim. Almost none of today’s elect will realize that the monster is lying. That beast easily gathers both the elect and non-elect for an orgy of spiritual prostitution, to arouse them for attacks against all that is just, right and loving, so all will violently hate and destroy the truly faithful servants of God, anyone working compassion and justice through love. Yet no doubts stir in the hearts of those elect, for they all learn to intentionally turn away from the truth and wilfully remain ignorant. Now I know those self-serving human gods teach them that doubting thoughts from their spirit must be suppressed by “faith” from entirely psyched out and irrational emotions of the flesh, which those liars have drummed up into a wild frenzy with skilfully delivered blasphemies and professional music. And I know the bragging and diseased mouth of each beast will confidently affirm that “pure and undefiled religion” is to destroy all of the innocent loving souls in one’s own true family, as well all other opponents of their own chosen lying, murdering beast. And I know their beast tells them to make all their judgments through the most unjust and devious means imaginable. However, the real Jesus did not send those beasts into their false churches, and those fake religious leaders are not true gods who should be worshipped by all.
It is now time for the elect to let the little inner voice of their spirits express their doubts about those greedy, self-serving servants of Satan, then actually hear the real Spirit of Jesus. And some elect are hearing the real Jesus. A voice tells their elect spirits that God certainly did not send any of those
“great,” self-important, psychopathic liars and murderers. Then that voice of God tells them to love their siblings in the family of mankind, even other sinners like themselves, and use biblical kinds of judgments to teach and train others to act through just love. So now let more elect heed that wordless voice which tells them that the one who sent those liars and murderers is their hellish father, and that they must nullify the works of those beasts. Now I know the elect think the real God is wrong, since Page 917
so many of their ruthless exploiters wear such good disguises that they must be right and God must be wrong. Then secular human gods never even try to utter pious words of “Christian” rhetoric. So the elect think they cannot be religious deceivers, and their concepts of religious moral justice, even their commands to blindly worship human gods, must be neutral, objective and true. Thus, most elect believe they have diligently searched out and found the “proof” that those evil beasts are “genuine”
servants of God. But let me warn those elect about those deceivers, whom they blindly worship as their high gods. Whether they do or do not put on disguises and practise false piety, those liars have made most elect souls so stupid that they can easily dupe them with or without religious pretenses.
So it is time for the elect to learn basic spiritual literacy, as disciples of the real Jesus. And, during this event (Mat. 12:46-49), Jesus taught a critical lesson in how to read spiritual writings: “Now, after that [i.e., after rebuking the Evangelical scholars], while He [was] speaking to the throngs, it happened that His mother and brothers stood and had been waiting outside [the crowd], seeking to speak with Him. So someone said to Him, ‘See, Your mother and Your brothers stood outside [the crowd] and are now waiting, seeking to speak with You.’ Then, having responded, He said to the one speaking,
‘Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?’ And He stretched out His hand over His disciples.
He said, ‘Look, My mother and My brothers. For whoever might have done the will of My Father in the heavens, this is My brother and sister and mother” (Mat. 12:46-50, from: Ἔτι δὲ αὐτοῦ
λαλοῦντος τοῖς ὄχλοις ἰδοὺ ἡ μήτηρ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ εἱστήκεισαν ἔξω ζητοῦντες αὐτῷ λαλῆσαι.
εἶπεν δέ τις αὐτῷ· Ἰδοὺ ἡ μήτηρ σου καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοί σου ἔξω ἑστήκασιν, ζητοῦντές σοι λαλῆσαι. ὁ δὲ
ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν τῷ λέγοντι αὐτῷ· Τίς ἐστιν ἡ μήτηρ μου, καὶ τίνες εἰσὶν οἱ ἀδελφοί μου; καὶ
ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ εἶπεν· Ἰδοὺ ἡ μήτηρ μου καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοί μου·
ὅστις γὰρ ἂν ποιήσῃ τὸ θέλημα τοῦ πατρός μου τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς, αὐτός μου ἀδελφὸς καὶ ἀδελφὴ καὶ
μήτηρ ἐστίν, SBLGNT). Now, to understand these words, we must first see what was obvious to all the devout Jews hearing His words, or reading His words in Matthew’s Gospel. For what Jesus said, and what He actually meant, in the context of this event, does not seem so obvious to Gentiles today.
Back in those days, the Jewish people and their religious leaders held the parents accountable for the actions of their children, even their adult children. So, if a son, even if he was more than thirty years old, had been behaving in a criminal or deeply sinful way, and the family found out about it, parents were not allowed to aid and abet their son’s crimes and sins. They could not remain silent and let him live at home, could not feed or care for him, since their silence about his sins, when they could have rebuked his sins, was a sin of omission (James 4:17), while helping him and caring for him would enable him to continue his crimes and sins, and thus aid and abet him in his sins. And, since most men lived in their parents’ home until they married, parents were held responsible of his sins.
Once a son came home, the parents and the rest of the family, usually led by the father and his brothers, were obligated to hand the sinning son over to the judging elders, to be taught to do what is right and repent from his sins, or else face punishments. God’s Law also required the parents to give proof that they had not partaken in the crimes and sins of their son. And proved this by handing their son over to the teaching and judging elders, then confessing their sons sins, in words which followed a pattern like this: “This son of ours is obstinate and bitter. He will not heed our voice. He is immoral and satiated [with a wicked spirit]” (Deut. 21:20). Then, if a biblical and fair trial found the son to be guilty, and the son remained totally unrepentant after the elders taught him the truth, the court could even stone him to death. But, of course, this law required the obedience to all God’s other laws by all the elders, parents and brothers, including God’s requirement for the presentation of reliable witnesses and evidence, which was all honestly and thoroughly cross-examined, until no reasonable Page 918
Mat. 12:46-50, Identifying the Elect
doubt of guilt remained. And, when those fake Evangelical liars brought accusations against Jesus to His parents and brothers, their lack of any real and reliable evidence or witnesses was a big problem.
Now Jesus’ father had died sometime before Jesus began His ministry. Therefore, his mother was the only remaining parent in His family. Also, Jesus’ brothers, at that time, did not yet believe that their oldest Brother, Jesus, was the Messiah. At that time, His brothers even thought Jesus was a deceiver seeking fame and glory, and they wanted Jesus to leave them alone (see John 7:3-5). Also, Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a typical devout Jewish woman of the time. Therefore, she would not dare to question or oppose the elders of the church. So the only logical reason that Mary and the brothers of Jesus came to find Jesus, yet remained standing outside the crowd to keep the appearance of not partaking in the sins of Jesus, waiting until they could privately talk with Jesus, was because the elders must have convinced them to hand Jesus over to them for judgment. It was because they were told to do something that the crowds and the faithful disciples of Jesus would not allow them to do.
By all we see here, it seems certain that Jewish elders had convinced His mother and brothers that Jesus was a blasphemer who wickedly opposed God, simply because Jesus did not recognize any of their supposed “God-given authority” as humanly ordained shepherds of God’s flock, as human gods with a God-given right to blind and exploit the people in their synagogues. Instead, Jesus very often rebuked them for their exploitative lies and ways. So those Evangelicals (Pharisees) must have told Jesus’ family that Jesus was definitely a servant of the devil. Then the Evangelical elders would have demanded that Mary, the only living parent of Jesus, must bring Jesus to them for a trial, so they could stone Him to death. For those Evangelicals had been plotting to kill Jesus for some time. This was just one more devious plot to get rid of Jesus, by tricking Mary and His brothers into thinking He was a reprobate, then forcing them to publicly confess that He was “obstinate and bitter, and did not heed them because He was immoral and satiated with a wicked spirit.” And, if Mary and Jesus’
brothers did not obey those elders, their entire church and community would consider them to be partakers in the supposed blasphemies and crimes of Jesus, in all the sins they falsely accused Jesus of committing. Mary and the entire household might not only be shunned, but might even be stoned to death together with Jesus. This is why Mary and Jesus’ brothers stood outside the crowd that day.
So Mary and Jesus’ biological brothers, who were all loving souls, likely stood there trembling, bracing themselves to do the terrible deed they thought God wanted them to do. And the anxiety of their delusional betrayal of Jesus would have been apparent in their faces. One look at their grieving countenance would have revealed what the Evangelical hypocrites had sent them to do. So Jesus ignored them for a time, so they could see what He was actually doing, and hear what He was actually teaching, so their hearts could have time to realize that those elders were very wrong, so they could repent into the truth and turn away from the Evangelical lies. Jesus waited until someone mentioned, loud enough for all to hear, that His mother and brothers were still standing there, outside the crowd, seeking Him. Now this situation would have been heartbreaking and devastating for any faithful servant of God, to see how religious deceivers could convince a man’s own mother and brothers to betray him unto death. But Jesus knew the hearts and minds of His mother and brothers far better than we know our families. And He also knew that those Evangelical plotters did not have a shred of genuine evidence against Him. They had merely tricked His innocent mother and brothers.
Jesus knew, if His mother and brothers went back to those elders without Him, those elders could do absolutely nothing to drag His family into community ostracization and punishment. For there were now far too many witnesses who would stand up for Him, and all the real, cross-examined witnesses and evidence would clearly prove their accusations against Him to be false, that is, if any honest elders were allowed to judge Him. The only thing those cunning deceivers actually relied upon was Page 919
the unsound, irrational, biased “evidence” of the “confession” they were hoping to get from Jesus’
own mother and brothers. If they tricked His mother and brothers into repeating the false accusations they had invented against Jesus, and if the people heard His own mother and brothers confess to the court that He was evil, then the people might actually believe He was evil, even though the only reason His mother and brothers believed that Jesus was evil was because those lying Evangelicals had lied and abused God’s Word to convince them. We have to admit this was a cunning plot, but it would fail if Jesus did not comply with the delusions that caused His mother and brothers to do this.
Most of the Jewish people there that day would have known what the mother and brothers had come to do. For they had all seen how the Evangelical elders had been plotting against Jesus. And Jesus’
disciples, especially those who had guests in His home, would not have been too dismayed by the betrayal of Mary and Jesus’ brothers either. For they would have witnessed how His family had not been able to fully comprehend who Jesus actually was. For their familiarity with the body of Jesus since His birth had blinded them to the deity of His Spirit. Now Jesus, as the oldest son, was the Head of the family, after His father died. So neither His mother, nor His unmarried younger brothers and sisters, could say much against what Jesus chose to say or do, either in the house, where all lived together, or outside the house. But all His closest disciples would have seen the disapproving body language and questioning tones of voice from those family members, who watched Jesus completely abandon the family’s business and wander around countryside teaching about God and God’s Word.
And, since no one in the family went out to follow Him, when they heard stories about the miracles done by Jesus, they also likely thought He was somehow tricking the people into believing they were miraculously healed or had demons cast out. For they had seen many other fake religious leaders do such things. So, during the first part of His ministry, Jesus’ family likely never actually witnessed His preaching and miracles, never bothered to find out if He was actually teaching real truths, or see if He was performing real miracles. For they all saw His body of flesh grow up in the same way as all other human beings, and thought Jesus was just like all other men. They assumed that Jesus could never teach as well as the esteemed Evangelical pastors, nor understand the Scriptures as well as the Evangelical scholars. For Jesus had never apprenticed with any notable teacher of any kind. Then they would have assumed His miracles were fake, since miracles never actually occurred in their lifetimes. And, if their esteemed religious leaders could not miraculously heal nor cast out demons, then neither could Jesus. Due to all this, Jesus’ mother and brothers were easily fooled by the lying Evangelicals, to the point where they would even resign themselves to the belief that Jesus had become totally evil, and now the elders they trusted as the “good” religious authorities must deal with Him. So, thinking they were serving God, they went to get Jesus, to bring Him to the esteemed Evangelical elders for a proper trial and possibly His just execution. But that did not occur that day.
After Mary and Jesus’ brothers were forced to stand outside the crowd and hear the words that Jesus taught His disciples, as well as witness the genuine miracles He performed in His own name, by the power of God’s Holy Spirit dwelling in Him, they stopped believing the lies of fake Evangelicals.
Never again would they side with those liars against Jesus. And there were also changes in Jesus’
ministry, after the false church attempted to deceive His mother and brothers. Sometime after this, Jesus’ mother actually began to follow Him with His other disciples. His mother, Mary, was with Him at the cross (John 19:25), and with the praying believers after His death (Acts 1:14). The author of the book of James was most likely the biological brother of Jesus too. Thus, after His biological mother and brothers had finally gone out to hear and see what Jesus was saying and doing, after they listened long enough to actually understand His teachings and observe His miracles, they woke from the delusion that their Evangelical elders worked in them. Jesus Himself likely also reasoned with Page 920
Mat. 12:46-50, Identifying the Elect
them later, after most of the crowd dispersed, and exposed the lies which those Evangelicals uttered to them. For, after this incident, we do not read about any resistance to Jesus’ ministry from His own family. However, there was another change in His ministry. After this, Jesus also made some of His teachings less direct and more figurative, so the Evangelicals could not so easily twist the meaning of His words. From then on, Jesus publicly taught more through parables than He did previously.
In the meantime, while His mother and brothers were still standing and waiting outside the crowd, Jesus taught the people how to read God’s writing on human spirits. He began by asking a question that few could answer correctly, especially within sight of His biological mother and brothers. Jesus asked, “Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?” This would have puzzled most. For, by now, Jesus and everyone else already knew that those people standing outside the crowd, within sight of them all, were definitely His mother and brothers. Yet Jesus clearly did not want them to point out His biological mother and brothers, because He had already been told that they were standing just a few yards away, and saw them, but now ignored them. So they wondered what Jesus meant. Then, as they looked to Jesus for the answer to this riddle, “He stretched out His hand over His disciples. He said, ‘Look, My mother and My brothers. For whoever might have done the will of My Father in the heavens, this is My brother and sister and mother.’” And the biological mother and brothers of Jesus would have heard Him say this. Here the particle and aorist subjunctive in the last clause (ἂν ποιήσῃ) is most interesting. It indicated one or more completed actions, implying that even one action in the past, through one’s own volition, with good motives of the heart to intentionally do the will of the heavenly Father, would reveal that one was possessing an elect spirit, a spirit created in the Father’s image. Thus, that one, depending on one’s age and sex, was either His brother, sister or mother. And notice how this statement included every elect soul, although He never mentioned a “father,” since Jesus was created by the Father in the beginning, and had no earthly father, only a heavenly father.
Since Jesus’ biological mother was included in this definition of God’s family, she was one of God’s elect children, even though she had been deceived and was now coming to betray Jesus to the fake religious authorities, to God’s enemies. And Mary was surely a spiritual mother of Jesus as well, since she always provided for His spiritual needs, such as giving Him time to pray and do the works of God. And all the biological brothers of Jesus seemed to be elect spiritual brothers of Jesus as well.
All those who had been drawn to Jesus by the truths He spoke and by seeing the loving works of His hands were His spiritual brothers, mothers and sisters. Yes, His biological mother and brothers had been duped by enemies of God, by men whose loveless spirits were born of Satan. So they were now sinning. Nevertheless, because they now sinned through deceptions and ignorance, but had done at least one just and loving work of the real God in their lives, and likely far more than one, they had proved to be elect children of God, true members of the family God, of which Jesus is the only Head.
Notice how the criteria for judging whether or not someone is God’s elect child is nothing like the criteria taught by most churches. Yet our God Jesus taught us to make this kind of judgment in this way, according to whether or not we have witnessed even one genuine act of just and God-like love done by a person. So we are not to judge anyone by one’s wrong and sinful deeds. No! For, if that were true, then none would be God’s elect children, since literally all human beings are intentional sinners, sinners who do not understand God’s Word nor do His will. However, only the elect can do the just and loving works of God’s will at times, occasionally. But the loveless elect cannot. The non-elect are utterly incapable of doing God’s will on earth as it is done in heaven. The most the non-elect will ever be able to accomplish is a pretense of doing God’s will, but always in a corrupted way, with ulterior motives of greed or selfish ambition. Therefore, finding just one instance of truly just love worked spontaneously by the spirit of an individual is the only kind of real proof we can Page 921
possibly use in our judgment to accept one as an elect member of God’s family. But judging by the outward confession of “having invited Jesus into the heart,” or one’s facial expressions of sincerity while reciting a formal creed, or by the act of the flesh submitting to rituals performed by the flesh, or anything else that can be faked by any demon’s child in a body of flesh, means absolutely nothing.
Our God Jesus judges only by whether or not one’s spirit has done even one just, good work through the love of the Father. That is how He always has judged, and how He will judge on the last day. In other words, Jesus will judge according to the inherent ability of a spirit to love, according to innate potential aptitudes of elect spirits created in their heavenly Father’s image. On the final day, Jesus will judge each one by whether or not that one had a spirit that, even just once, desired to do the Father’s will through true and loving intentions and motives of the heart. Thus, many terrible sinners will be saved through their deep spiritual repentance on that day. However, that day will also see many “nice” and respected church people, who never broke man’s laws, even pious looking priests and pastors from so-called “Christian” churches, fail to meet this standard of Christ’s judgment. For those souls follow only their own wills, or the wills of other loveless souls, and never love enough to do the just and loving will of the heavenly Father. Many elect commit crimes, but are not criminals.
Yet there are criminals who do no crimes, who only commit ruthless legal sins which destroy many innocent lives in faithful service to Satan, in order to build up their hellish father’s kingdom on earth.
But Jesus will sort them out. Make no mistake, liars will not fool Jesus as He judges on the last day.
When Jesus gave this teaching, He was not rejecting His biological mother and brothers because they were sinning, even though they actually seem to have come to hand Him over to God’s enemies in the Evangelical church, to Satan’s servants who wanted to murder Him. On the contrary, Jesus was exonerating His biological mother and brothers. He knew they had been deceived and would soon repent away from that sin, into the spiritual and physical realities created by God. And they did actually do so, as we see in other Scriptures. But, if we judge by externals alone, and focus only on the sinful deeds of others, without allowing for repentance, which all elect possess the ability to truly fulfill directly from their spirits in their hearts, we would not make a right judgment. If we judged in the pagan Roman way, we would be unjust, and not please our God Jesus, nor our heavenly Father.
Now we must learn to judge as Jesus did, so we might find real elect siblings in this world. We must learn to read the writing that His Holy Spirit etches upon the hearts of His elect brothers, sisters and mothers. If we see someone who has truly loved in a pure, just, self-sacrificing, God-like way—as Mary did when she risked the painful trials of child birth, rejection of her husband, ostracization by her family and community, and even death by stoning, so she might give birth to Jesus according to the command of God—then we have found a brother, sister or mother in the family of God’s elect children. All these souls have the same Father of their spirits, and their spirits will have been created in His image, with an array of His same attributes, especially His attribute of love. Therefore, when we see one of them sinning, even in a terrible way, our duty of love is to deliver that one from the deceptions of the flesh which are causing that one to sin. And, if we see a non-believer, even a totally pagan worshipper of false gods or an atheistic humanist, but that one is able to love in ways where that one does the just, loving will of our heavenly Father, then we are not to abandon that one to the lies he or she has been taught by Satan and his citizens of the world order. Rather, we need to wait until Jesus calls our spirits to testify about Him and His truths, and possibly even work with that one in the good, just works he or she is doing according to God’s will—although we also must be careful to do our works in our God’s name, according to His commands and His will. For we need to avoid doing any of the ungodly, unjust and unloving aspects of that work, which the unbeliever might want to do through the deceiving counsel received from Satan’s world order. Above all, we must find the Page 922
Mat. 12:46-50, Identifying the Elect
more mature labourers of our heavenly Father’s kingdom. For, together with those loving souls, we will be able to work even miracles in Jesus’ name, able to do truly effective works of loving justice that build up and esteem His kingdom, even for the benefit of all souls living in God’s land on earth.
So preachers who promote greed and avarice, who rail against the just and loving works of our heavenly Father, are not our siblings in Jesus’ family, are not His disciples, are not the elect. By the standards of judgment which Jesus set, we can clearly see that they are God’s enemies, who set up fake churches to steal the earthly lives of the elect, all for their own profit and glory. They are the heirs of their hellish father, since they often like to quote carefully selected and even more carefully twisted words from God’s Book, like Satan did when he tempted Jesus. Many priests and pastors prove to be children of the devil by their lack of any just and loving fruits of God, by their consistent opposition to God’s true will. For all they want to do is make kings of fascist criminals and con men, like Hitler and Trump, so they themselves can continue to exploit, steal, enslave, oppress and kill.
Many Churchians, if not most of them, are not the brothers, sisters and mothers of Jesus. Almost all of the racist, xenophobic, ruthless and self-absorbed hypocrites, whose spirits refuse to repent when they are confronted with the truth spoken through love, who continuously lie and murder like their hellish father, who never stop working against the true, biblical Jesus, are the non-elect, whose spirits were created by Satan. And those non-elect will never belong to God’s family. The false spiritual guides who convince people to abstain from life-saving vaccinations for political reasons, who bring souls to death for their own evil selfish ambitions and financial gain, so they can keep dupes locked in profitable dungeons of dark lies and delusions, definitely are not sent by God. Satan sent them. And it is never a sin to redeem a lost life to save others, never a sin to use living cells from an already aborted baby in order to save lives. Those who are truly guilty of killing babies are those who exploited foolish girls for sex, as well as those who refused to help those girls when they became desperate, even the ruthless church-goers who condemned and threatened those girls, who drove them into seeking abortions. Those are the truly guilty brood of the devil. But the desperate pregnant women seeking an abortion, not in a casual way, not as just another method birth control, are not guilty for the murdering of babies. Now it is time for the elect to learn to judge rightly, in the way Jesus judges, as Jesus commanded, by the fruits of each one’s spirit, by one’s words and deeds spontaneously done through the just love with one’s spirit. Now we must learn to judge by the intentions and motives of each one’s spirit, because Jesus commanded: “You people must never judge according to external appearances. Rather, you people must always judge the just judgment”
(John 7:24, from: μὴ κρίνετε κατ’ ὄψιν, ἀλλὰ τὴν δικαίαν κρίσιν κρίνετε, SBLGNT. Note the durative present imperatives indicate ongoing, continuous practises. Thus, with a negative, the verb in the phrase, μὴ κρίνετε, means “must never judge.” Then the present tense verb without the negative, κρίνετε means “must always judge,” with a just, biblical kind of judgment by God’s will).
Jesus wanted us to seek and find those who “might have done the will of My Father in the heavens.”
Therefore, if we see anyone who did God’s will through loving intentions and motives of the spirit, even just once, and we have interpreted those intentions and motives correctly, we know that one must have an elect spirit. That one has a spirit which can repent from sin into the truth. That one possesses a spirit that can become loving, just, honest and more mature in Christ, or may eventually serve with us in our Father’s kingdom on earth, as one of our elect brothers, mothers or sisters. Of course, none of the truly elect can ever become our wise and mature fathers, since we have only one truly wise and fully mature Father, who is in heaven—although a few somewhat spiritually mature men might do some works guided by our heavenly Father, in Jesus name, for younger males and females, and may become imperfect images of our heavenly Father for them. So, instead of building Page 923
fake churches according to the words of liars, we need to let Jesus draw the Father’s true children together, and let Him teach and judge among our elect brothers, mothers and sisters. Let Jesus be the Head Teacher who chooses His own disciples, who equips each for one’s own appointed destiny. Let Jesus be our oldest Brother, who fulfills the will our heavenly Father in all matters of life and faith.
