Overcoming The Beast: The Man of Sin That Walks After the Spirit of this World.

그 짐승 : 이 세상 영을 쫓아 걷는 죄의 사람(사내,남자)을 이기기(뛰어넘기)
I was still considering and meditating on all these things when the Lord quickened to me that which is written in Revelation 17:1-5 And there came one of the seven angels that had the seven bowls, and spoke with me saying, “Come here, and I will show you the judgment of the great harlot that sits on many waters; with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and they that dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her fornication. And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness: and I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stone and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations, even the unclean things of her fornication, and upon her forehead a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
내가 여전히 생각하며,, 주님이 지적한 이러한 모든 것들을 고려하여서,, 요한 계시록 17:1-5 절에 기록된 그것을 생각하고 있었는데,, 그기 대접을 든 일곱 천사중 하나가 와서 내게 일러 말하길, " 이리로 오라, 내가 네게 많은 물위(바다)에 앉은 큰 창녀(음녀)의 심판의 심판을 보일 것인즉 ; 그녀와 땅의 왕들이 음행을 하였고, 땅에 사는 그들이 그녀의 음행의 포도주로 술취했다. 그리곤 그가 나를 영안에서 한 광야속으로 운반해 갔는데 : 그래서 나는 한 여인이 주홍색 짐승을 타고 있는것을 보았다,, 신성모독의 이름들로 가득한, 일곱개의 머리와 10개의 뿔을 가진. 그러자 그 여인이 자주빛과 주홍색으로 성장을 했는데 금과 귀한 보석, 진주로 꾸미고서, 그녀 손엔 가증스런것들이 가득한 황금잔을 들었는데, 그녀의 음행의 더러운 것들로로, 그녀의 이마엔 이름이 쓰였는데,, 미스터리 큰 바 빌론, 땅의 가증스런 것들의 창녀의 어머니,라 쓰였더라.
Then the Lord began to give me a deeper understanding to add to that which he had previously understood about this woman and the beast with the seven heads. I then understood more clearly how these seven heads represent the seven unclean spirits of this world; and being a head, they rule over the thoughts of all who are carnally minded. The seven headed beast, each with it’s own nature and personality. The harlot is the wisdom of this world, and she being a queen, rules over the senses and desires of the children of this world. She being of this world only has a desire to go to bed with, or rather, to believe and trust these seven unclean spirits. She is the wisdom that is enmity against God because it is impossible for her to ever see eye to eye with God. Therefore, she has no choice but to submit herself to believe, to trust, to obey, and to love the god of this world and the spirit of this world. All of her sensual lust and affections are only for the god of this world and his kings. Through her union, or fornication, with these unclean spirits they bring forth every abomination, every evil deed, every corrupted thought, every false doctrine, every sensual lust, and every wicked word that has ever come into the thoughts of the children of this world. She gives her wisdom to the children of this world, who are the offspring of this harlot and the dragon. She is the wisdom that guides the beast, that man of sin, the son of perdition, that is alienated from all relationship with God. When wisdom of this world are joined together in union with the kings of this world, their fornication brings forth the righteousness of this world. To the children of this world, this is their fornication; but when the soul of those who God has called are joined to together in this union, they commit adultery against God.
그때 주님이 내게 추가해서 전에 내게 이해게 했던 것, 이 여자와 그 일곱 머리를 가진 그 짐승에 대해 더 깊은것을 이해 시키기 시작했습니다.
James 4:4,5 “You adulterers and adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Do you think that the scripture says in vain, “The spirit that dwells in us lusts to envy?” But he gives more grace. Wherefore he says, “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
I John 2:15 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides forever. Little children, it is the last time: and as you have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us. But they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.”
The wisdom of this world desires only to believe that the lies that come forth from these seven kings are that which is right to follow after. The wisdom of this world is the queen over all sin and death, and she only sees that it right for her children to think as she thinks; and she gives her vision to her children. She is the mother of all sin and death. It is for this reason that God sees the wisdom of this world to be nothing but foolishness because by her, men are always choosing to allow sin and death to rule over the thoughts of their heart. God, who said, “Your thoughts are not my thoughts”, would never choose to submit to her foolishness, to see that it is right to let your heart and mind to be led by the counsels of the spirit of this world that bring forth nothing but misery, oppression, vanity, torment, uncertainty, cruelty, emptiness, and unrest into their hearts and minds of all who have her for their vision. An eye for an eye? Your wisdom for my wisdom? Only those who are wise in my eyes will have the spiritual senses that will enable them to choose the life that is filled with the goodness, the grace, the joy of fellowship, and the blessings of Father’s love.
1 Corinthians 3:19-20 “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He takes the wise in their own craftiness. And again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.”
Matthew 25:1-3 “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish.”
Jeremiah 10:14,15 AMP. “Every man has become like a brute (that which is not human), irrational and stupid, without knowledge [of God]; every goldsmith is brought to shame by his graven idols; for his molten images (opinions) are frauds and falsehood, and there is no breath in them. They are devoid of worth, usefulness, or truth: a work of delusion and mockery. In their time of trial and punishment they shall [helplessly] perish.”
Hosea 4:12 “My people ask counsel from their wooden idols (the opinions of the seven kings), and their staff informs them. For the spirit of harlotry has caused them to stray, and they have played the harlot against their God.”
Acts 17:23-30 “For as I passed by and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Him I now declare to you whom therefore you have ignorantly worshipped. God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands, and neither is he worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he gives to all life, and breath, and all things; and has made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation so that they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us. For in him we live (our seeing, our hearing, our feelings, our passions, our thinking, and our speaking), and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commands all men every where to repent.”
Then the Lord said to me, “On the sixth day, I did not create the beast, and neither did I breathe the spirit of this world into the man Adam that I had created. It was not until Adam and Eve willingly chose to submit themselves to believe the lies that Satan had presented to them that they became his servants. And having become the servants to the god of this world, the spirit of this world then entered into them to keep them captive to the fallen nature of sin and death through their worldly senses. I did not create pride in Adam. I did not create any fear in Adam. I did not create Adam to be confused with double-mindedness. I did not create the hatred in Adam that delights in accusing and judging others. I did not create any form of sickness or infirmity in Adam. I did not create any dread in Adam. I did not create any unbelief or doubts in Adam. On the sixth day, I created Adam, and I breathed life into him, not the sinful nature of the beast. I created man to be a recipient of my love, to walk with me in the communion and fellowship of my love. But when Adam and Eve chose to entertain themselves with Satan’s lies, the spirit of this world and the wisdom of this world came forth to take their rule over their heart and mind. Oh, that Adam and Eve had not willingly chosen to believe the serpent’s counsels! They desired to believe the lies that said they could be as God, but their end was that they became slaves to the beast nature of sin and death.
Romans 6:12-17 “Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in the desires thereof. Neither yield you your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin: but yield yourselves to God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for you are not under the law, but under grace. What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey; whether of sin unto death, or, of obedience unto righteousness? But God be thanked, that you were the servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered to you.”
James 1:13-16 “Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, it brings forth death. Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.”
I Corinthians 10:13,14 “There has no temptation taken you but such as that which is common to man. But God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape (through the Spirit of life that is in Christ Jesus), so that you may be able to bear it. Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.”
Romans 8:2 “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.”
Luke 11:13 “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, then how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”
The children of this world do not know God, and neither did the people of God know me when I came into this world. Why? Because the children of this world are ignorant of God, and by their worldly senses they were not able to discern me; for the wisdom of this world keeps the eyes of men blinded to all things that are of God. I came forth from God. It is only through this ignorance of God that the children of this world have remained separated from the goodness, the blessings, and the life that Father created all to be partakers of. He who knows me knows my Father; and he who knows my Father walks in communion and fellowship with us. The seven kings that of the spirit of this world, they are only able to rule with sin and death over the souls that are darkened with ignorance of God. I came into this world to reveal Father to those who desire to know him. The things of God do not come naturally to the beast; for what fellowship does light have with darkness? What communion do lies have with truth? What agreement is there between that which is right in the sight of God, and that which is right in the sight of this world? For this reason, a man must be born again; for only that which is born of God overcomes the world. That which is birthed of this world is conceived in sin and brought to work iniquity, to do that which is right in it’s own eyes. That which is birthed through the spirit of God always does that which is right in the sight of God.
Psalm 73:22 “So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before you. Nevertheless I am continually with you, and you have held me by my right hand. You shall guide me with your counsel, and afterwards receive me to glory.”
Ecclesiastes 3:18 “I said in my heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest to them, and that they might see, that they themselves are beasts.”
Jude 10 “But these speak evil of whatever they do not know; and whatever they know naturally, like brute beasts, in these things they corrupt themselves.”
Jeremiah 4:22 “For my people are foolish; they have not known me. They are senseless children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.”
Ephesians 4:17,18 “This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.”
Then the Lord continued to show me more about the beast when he showed to me more clearly what the 10 horns on the seven heads of the beast represented: the law, the Ten Commandments that God gave to Moses. But it is not really just this law, but any law that man can use or try to tame the nature of the beast in man; for without a law, their would nothing to restrain any of the desires that are of the spirit of this world that lust to kill, to steal, and to destroy the lives of others; whether it be by the blade of steel of the sword of the tongue. Laws only have power to help in restraining the nature of the beast, but they are powerless to change that nature. Laws only have power when men choose to believe and honor that law. Where there is lawlessness, then the man of sin, that beast nature of this world, shall be revealed.
The Lord then showed to me how the Spirit of this world and the wisdom of this world has perverted the law so that man sees the law as an instrument that he can use to make the beast to appear in the sight of men to be righteous and good. From where came the desires to have a law to rule over our lives but through the lusts of this world that desires to show itself to be as God through it’s own righteousness and goodness. This again is that darkness that appears as the light. Men who serve such laws actually worship and serve the laws, and not God. Our blind and foolish is this darkness when it chooses to have a law rule over it rather than a loving, and protective, and giving, and merciful God? According to Vine’s Dictionary of New Testament Words, horns represent symbols of strength. And as it is written in I Corinthians 15:56 “… the strength of sin is the law. For many years I knew that the law was given to reveal sin to us, but I could never see or understand how sin could get any of its strength from the law itself. That is, until the Lord revealed to me how the man of sin, is actually the beast nature that is of the spirit of this world that is hiding in man. And it will continue to hide itself in man as long as that man is deceived into thinking that he is righteous and good by the works of the law; for it is by such works as these that gives the beast his hiding place, in the dark places of the heart that man cannot see into.
Then the Lord said, “There are no works of the law that are able to restore any fellowship or communion between a man and his God. Just as the spirit of this world has deceived all of us into thinking that his identity is our human nature, so also does it try to further deceive us into believing that if we observe the do’s and the don’ts of the law, and speak good words and do righteous works, then surely we can make ourselves to be righteous and good, without once having been delivered from the nature of any of these unclean spirits. Laws cannot change the beast because the will of man is not able to overcome the senses of this world that man knows naturally. Can feeding the poor deliver a man from his fears? Can helping a neighbor free a man from his double-mindedness? Can praising God with his lips break the yoke of pride from off of him? As it is written, man at the best possible state that he can make himself to be is still subject to the senses of this world. Even so, sin gets it’s strength from the law because by the works of the law, men are deceived into believing that they are making themselves righteous, and good, and acceptable to God… while beast continues to live within.
Revelation 12:9 “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
Romans 3:10-12 “As it is written, There are none righteous; no, not one. There are none that understands, and there is none that seeks after God. They are all gone out of the way, and they are together become unprofitable. There is none that does good; no, not one.”
Romans 9:31-32 “But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness. Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone….10:2,3 “For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge; for they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.”
Matthew 23:27,28 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whited tombs which indeed appear beautiful outward, but within are full of dead bones and of all uncleanness (the righteousness of this world). Even so, you outwardly appear righteous to men, but within you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.”
There is nothing that the spirit of this world desires more than to have a written law so that it can subject itself to it through the Babylon spirit, and then show itself to be as righteous and good as God is through it’s own works. It is the god of this world who deceives the ignorant into believing that righteousness and goodness can be obtained by observing written laws. It is the lie; for it is impossible for righteousness and goodness to come forth except through the love of God, not through any worldly efforts of man. There is only one who is good, and one who is righteous, and that is God; and the spirit of this world is greatly offended by this word. He who has been deceived into believing that he is righteous is he who is unclean in the sight of God; for his righteousness comes by being wise in his own eyes. Those who do not first seek to know what is right in my eyes, but trust in their own vision, they cannot discern between the righteousness of the unclean from the righteousness of the clean. If they could have discerned, then I would never have been despised, or rejected, or crucified. My eyes only see that God only is righteous and good. Those who are wise in their own eyes, seeing as the spirit of this world sees, do not offer to give to me the seeing in their eyes because they cannot see themselves to be anything other than righteous and good by the works they are doing according to the law. I am the light in the eyes of all those who see that God only is righteous and good.
Luke 18:9-14 “Jesus spoke this parable to those who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, “God, I thank you that I am not like other men — extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.” And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, “God, be merciful to me a sinner!” I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Galatians 5:4 “You who are trying to be justified by law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.”
When men serve laws, their hearts and minds focus only on the do’s and the don’ts of law, and not on God. Did not the Pharisees and Sadducees observe the ordinances of the law to it’s fullest, yet not one of them knew God or had any relationship with him. There is no written law, nor works of the law, that have the power to restore fellowship and communion with God. There is no written law that has the power to change the heart of man. What written law has the power to give to you a willing heart and willing mind when your heart and mind by nature are unwilling? What written law has the power to cast out all of the worries and stress that your fears bring upon you? What written law has the power to circumcise your heart so that you can love the Lord your God with all of your heart, all of your soul, and all of your mind? What written law is able to speak peace to your thoughts when you are confused and frustrated? What written law has the power to break the yoke of pride from off your back? What written law is able to increase your faith and perfect your belief? What written law is able to prepare you to be the bride of Christ, or to raise you up to be the son of God, or to make you to be best friends with God? There is no written law that has any power to change the natural senses of man: to change his seeing, his hearing, his feelings, his emotions, his desires, his thinking, or his speaking so that they agree with God’s senses? As I said before, “Love never changes, but it only has the power to change all things. That which is born of this world is of the world, and that which is born of God knows God, and loves him.
Romans 8:2-5 “For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh; and on account of sin, he condemned sin in the flesh so that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.”
Hebrews 7:18,19 “For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness; for the law made nothing perfect; but the bringing in of a better hope did, by which we draw near to God (fellowship and relationship).”
Jeremiah 13:23 “Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard its spots? Then may you also do good who are accustomed to do evil?”
The wisdom of this world and the spirits of this world have joined together with the lies of the god of this world to corrupt all written laws with their worldly desires to show themselves to be as God. All who judge righteousness according to the law are blind; and this blindness gives strength to the sin nature that thinks that it is knows how to discern good from evil, right from wrong, and the clean from the unclean. When the spirit of this world is used to interpret God and his laws, then all that comes forth is hypocrisy and iniquity, that which appears good and seems right. It is the spirit of this world, joined together with the wisdom of this world that deceives the ignorant into believing that God requires them to make themselves to be as an image of the law, and not after the image of God. This is the false image that the spirit Babylon tempts the ignorant to make themselves to be. I came into this world to change the hearts and minds of those who believe on me; to give them a new heart, a new mind, and a new life that is free from all the senses of this world.
II Corinthians 5:7 “For we walk by faith, not by sight.”
Matthew 23:27,28 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whited tombs which indeed appear beautiful outward, but within they are full of dead bones & all uncleanness. Even so, you outwardly appear righteous to men, but within you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
Have you not seen how the spirit of this world has used it’s own understanding to twist and pervert the scriptures and the laws of God until they agree with it’s own natural senses? Have you not seen Babylon working in those who call themselves Christians, but they make themselves into images that try to show themselves to as God? Have you not seen Devil working in those who delight in using the law and the scriptures to accuse, to judge, and condemn others with? Did not even Paul, when he was known as Saul, use the scriptures themselves to justify persecuting and killing Christians? Can you see now how the uncleanness of these spirits of the world can use the law and the scriptures to bring forth their uncleanness in a manner that appears clean? The spirit of this world and the wisdom of this world both love religious doctrines and written laws because it gives them the opportunity to move through the senses of the blind and ignorant, directing them to show themselves to be as God through hypocrisy and the works of iniquity. These works are the righteousness of the unclean.
Then the Lord gave me this vision; and in this vision I saw myself sitting in the den of an old house with this very ugly woman who was also really, really old. She was so old that her skin was wrinkled from her head to her toe. She looked older than any woman that I have ever seen in my life and she had more wrinkles than a raisin. She was also skinny; so skinny that she looked frail and sickly. She had at least five bracelets on each arm, and they were all big and shinny gold plated and silver coated bracelets on. All of her bracelets were so old that the gold and sliver plating on them had just about completely worn off. She was so skinny that I could not understand how she could keep those bracelets from sliding right off of her. She also had big rings on each of her fingers, and she had on fake pearl and gold plated necklaces around her neck. She was also dressed in clothes that you could only find teenagers wearing. It was really, really sad seeing this old, ugly woman trying to make herself to look pretty and younger with all of this “bling” hanging off of her. If this woman was not pitiful enough, she could not stop running her mouth; and all that she could talk about was her “glory” years, as though they were the years that she was still trying to live in. I had nothing to say to her, so I just sat there trying to forbear with her.
Then she stood up and motioned for me to follow her because she wanted to show to me the rest of the house. When we entered into the first room, she cut the light on, and I was immediately taken back to see that all of the walls in this room were covered with framed photographs. The only type of furniture in the room was shelves, and all of the shelves were stacked and overflowing with trophies. I felt like I did when I was a small child going to see my grandmother, and how she always wanted to show me pictures of our family members that had long been deceased. As a 8 or 9 year old kid, I really was not that interested in looking at pictures of people that I not only did not know, but I knew that I would not get to meet either. That is exactly about how much interest I had in seeing who all was in these photographs on these walls. But when I drew near to examine the first photo, I was immediately shocked to see that I was not only in this photo, but I was in every photograph that covered the walls in this room. I am then thinking, “Is this somehow my room?” Then this woman begins to boast to me that this was Beelzebub’s room, and all of these photographs were taken during those times that I walked in pride. I saw pictures of me from my past when I did good works before men, and how I gladly received their praise, and their recognition, and their acceptance. I saw pictures of me contending and arguing with those brethren from my past who did not see eye to eye with me at that time, and I was positive that I was right and they were all wrong.
Proverbs 13:10 “By pride only comes nothing but strife (contention)…”
I then noticed that there were several photos that had been blown up to a much larger size than any of the other photos. When I looked at them, I saw that these photos were from taken during those times in my life when I let pride deceive me into thinking that I had no need for God’s help. It was like these photos were made larger than all of the other photos because they were more special to either Beelzebub, or this woman, or both. I saw that these photos were taken from those times when pride had deceived me into thinking that I could take control over my life, and that I could handle my own troubles and solve my own problems without any assistance from God. When I realized that all of these photos were taken from those times that I walked in pride, I began to wonder whose room this was: was it my room, or was Beelzebub’s room? I then saw that many of these photos were from those times that I trusted myself and leaned on my own understanding, totally resisting any humility that would have allowed for me to draw near to God and ask him for his help. I then thought that it must have been Beelzebub himself that had taken these photographs because they were moments that I knew that were precious to him because they were taken from all of those times when my soul was completely joined to his spirit for counsel and friendship. I was so agreeable and friendly with Beelzebub during those times that I never even thought that I needed any other senses within me except the senses that accompanied this pride. But that was before the Lord began to correct to me by opening my eyes to see. Amazing how all thing can change when your eyes are opened to see things in another way.
Proverbs 16:5 “Everyone that is proud in heart is an abomination to the Lord.”
Isaiah 2:12 “For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low.”
1 Timothy 3:5-6 “For if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God? Not a novice (new convert), lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the Devil.”
Hebrews 4:12 “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit…”
After I had come to fully understand what all these photographs were about, I then turned my attention to see what was inscribed on all these trophies; and this room was filled with just about as many trophies as there were photographs on the wall. When I picked up the first trophy, I saw the words inscribed: “First Place”. That was it, just “First Place”. I then picked up another trophy and it was also another “First Place” trophy, but it had an inscription on it that said, “To Beelzebub: For when he deceived Mitt into choosing to walk in pride before God rather than in humility.” I then picked up another “First Place” trophy, and it’s inscription read: To Beelzebub: For when he deceived Mitt into choosing to do it his own way rather than God’s way.” The inscription on the next “First Place” trophy read, “To Beelzebub: For when he deceived Mitt into choosing to do his own will rather than God’s will.” I then saw this inscription on another “First Place” trophy: “Beelzebub”: For those times that made Mitt to be unwilling to surrender his life to the Lord.” I then realized that all of the trophies in this room were “First Place” trophies because they came from those times that I chose to put the pride of Beelzebub first, rather than to follow after the Lord. I then saw the inscription on another “First Place” trophy that read, “To Mitt Jeffords: For recognition of the good works that he has done so that he could receive honor and glory from men”. Was this my room or was this Beelzebub’s room, or was this our room when I thought that his identity was my identity?
Matthew 8:19-22 Then a certain scribe came and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” Then another of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury the dead.”
Hebrews 3:7-11 “Wherefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you will hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness, when your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Why was I grieved with that generation and said, “They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. So I swear in my wrath, they shall not enter into my rest.”
I then saw that Beelzebub only got a trophy after I had chosen to believe it’s counsels rather than the counsels of God; and I saw that on each occasion that Beelzebub had won his trophy, I was the one that was handing his “First Place” trophy over to him because I had freely chosen to believe that his counsels were more righteous for me to believe than God’s. Of course, in those past times, I was so blind that I did not see that any of these counsels were coming from the spirit Beelzebub because I just thought they were coming from my own imaginations; thoughts that were tempting me to be disobedient to the voice of the Lord. In my ignorance, I was allowing Beelzebub’s lies to reign over my heart and my mind, thinking it was right for me to walk after the senses of pride. O thanks be to God for the blood of Jesus Christ, for the grace of Father’s love, for his truth that sets us free, and his love that changes things. As this old woman was leading me out of this room, I then remembered when the Lord spoke to me after he had broken the yoke of pride from off of me, and he said, “Mitt, where is pride?” I searched my heart for a moment and answered, “It is gone, Lord!” He then asked, “Where is the righteousness of your pride?” I joyously answered, “It is gone also!”. Then the Lord, “But are you not still Mitt?” That was the moment that I first realized that if that pride and the righteousness of my pride could be cast out, then it was not even me to begin with, but that which possessed me. Until that time, I thought this pride and this righteousness is what defined a man’s identity, but now I see that it only defines who the god is that oppresses him.
Obadiah 3 “The pride of your heart has deceived you…”
Proverbs 16:25 “There is a way that seems right to a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.”
Job 40:8 (The Lord speaking to Job) “Will you also annul my judgment? Will you condemn me so that you may be righteous?”
Matthew 6:34 “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.”
Then this old woman led me out of that room and into another room, and I was suddenly drawn back by her arrogancy. Here she was pointing out how Beelzebub had not only deceived me and reigned over my heart and mind with his senses, but she was actually gloating about it as though I would be impressed by seeing how this unclean spirit had kept me alienated from fellowship with God and separated from his love. When we entered into the next room, she cut the light on; and when she did, I could see that this room was identical to the last room in that all of the walls were covered with photographs and all the shelves also had all of these trophies stacked on them. When I went over to examine the photographs, I immediately recognized whose room this was because of the expressions that on my face in every one of these photographs. It was Immani’s room: the spirit of fear. The photographs in this room not only covered all of the walls, but the ceiling also.
I then saw that several of these photos were taken from my past life when I was an atheist, from those days that I was tormented almost every single day with the fear of dying. I then saw photos from my youth when I was anxious and stressed about going to school unprepared; and so fearful that the teacher would call on me in class to answer a question that I did not know, or that we were going to have a pop test. I saw photos from those times when I worried myself sick with fear because something as small as a blemish or a bump would appear on my skin, and I would think that I had some incurable disease. I saw photos from those times after I had done something wrong or when I had made a mistake, and I would do my bet to cover it up or hide it somehow because I was so afraid that I was going to get discovered, and that my shame would be made known. I even saw photos from that time in the past when I used to be so afraid of heights, and how I became so anxious and stressed out when I was on a high bridge, or flying in an airplane, or had to go to the top of a building. I saw photos from the times that I was fearful of being rejected for things like a job, or for a date, or for acceptance into a certain group or club. I saw those times when I was fearful of being rejected because the work that I had done would not be quite good enough to be accepted.
I then noticed that the photos that showed the times I was afraid of God, these photos were much larger in size than any of the other photos in the room. I saw photos from those times when I thought that it was my works that were to accompany my faith, and not God’s; and I was always fearful and afraid because I never felt like any of my works were good enough to please God or to be accepted by him. I saw photos from those times that I was so afraid that God was going to condemn me for my sins and my weaknesses because I thought God was like a lot of the pastors that I had seen that had condemned others for their sins and weaknesses. The fear of Immani had me so afraid in this matter, believing that God was going to condemn me, that I almost gave up all of my faith and belief in God. But thanks be to God, his loved appeared to me, and that fear was cast out. Since the time that love of God came to cast out my fears instead of condemn me, I would not care in the least if all of the hypocrites, all of the false pastors, and all of the false teachers were joined together to condemn and throw stones at me for any sin that I may have committed or that I had been falsely accused of because I know that God himself would do no such thing, and neither has he ever treated me in any such manner as they would.
I also saw many photos on the walls from those past times when I was fearful of suffering any pain, or harm, or persecution, or harm, especially for Christ’s sake. It was during these times that the fears of Immani would appear in my thoughts as though it was some kind of friend, giving me counsel to turn away from my faith or from the counsels of God’s words because of what I might suffer if I continued to follow after them. As the Lord said, “All of these unclean spirits work to alienate and separate us from God”; and these imaginations only come forth from Immani, but with assistance from Shadow’s counsel also. Shadow always prophesies that the “worst case scenario” is that which is surely going to happen; and in that scenario I was surely going to suffer great things, especially if there might be any possibility of loss to my “self-image”.
Of all the things that I have actually suffered the loss of during my walk, they all together cannot begin to compare with that which I have suffered at the hands of Immani. As I looked at the events in these photos, it did not bring back into my mind remembrances of past mistakes or sins, but remembrances of the miseries that I suffered because of the stress, the worry, and the anxiety that Immani tormented my thoughts with. In fact, I came to realize that there is nothing that a man could lose that could cause any real suffering without Immani and Shadow being there with their nature of fear and dread. I mean, what if you found out you a week to give, but there was no fear in your thoughts. How would you respond? I personally have found that physical suffering is nothing compare to the torments of Immani. I have never suffered in the least when the Lord has cast out any of Immani’s fears. How much would we really suffer if it was impossible for any thoughts of anxiety, or terror, or fear, or insecurity, or worry, or panic, or uncertainty, or stress that to enter into our minds? What brought this suffering that comes from Immani fears into my mind was that I saw photos from childhood, from those times when I had done something wrong, and my mother caught me. She would tell me that she was going to have my father punish me when he got home from work. Well, from the time that she said that, until the time that father got home, I suffered greatly from my fears of what I was going to suffer. Yet the punishment never matched to suffering of the distress and worry that I had until I got punished. Even when my Father spanked me, I was so relieved that my stress and worry were gone that the actual punishment seemed secondary. So just how greatly does Immani and Shadow oppress us with their miserable thoughts?
I could write long novel on all of the different fears that I saw in these photos from my past life, as well as from my recent life, but there is one more fear that I saw in these photos that I want to share; and it is the fear of seeing and hearing new things. It is like we all, as we grow older, desire to get more comfortable and secure in our lives, as well as in our surroundings. You cannot experience any comfort and security as long as the fears of Immani, with his worries and anxieties are present. Several times in my own walk, I had gotten really comfortable with where the Lord had me, in my business, in my family, and most of all, in my relationship with him. But as he has so often done in my seeking of the Lord, he will come to me and say, “Get ready because I am about to show you some new things that you do not know.” Well, just to hear those words would take me out of my comfort zone because I had no idea what these new things were or how they could impact my life. But the Lord taught me that the only place that is truly comfortable and secure is in his presence. So if Lord said, “It is time for you to follow me so that I can show you some new things”, then that security and comfort is going to move wherever the Lord goes, and it will not remain with me in that old place if I desire to remain there.
Immani would always have us to see that new things are those things that will bring us out of our secure and comfort zone; and it is like he just waits for this type of opportunity to tempt us with his fears to stay where we are instead of moving on and following after the Lord. It is surely Immani that brings forth the “fear of what we do not know”. Why would Immani rise up to try to make us fearful about learning new things? Because it is his nature to do so; and Immani, like all of these unclean spirits, know that they are only able to dwell in the darkness of our ignorance of God. So they are strongly opposed to any new thing that the Lord may bring forth because the new thing may cast them out of their dwelling place; our heart and mind. Immani knows that the more truth that we learn, the more we are going to be set free from the senses of the spirit of this world. Without the fear of Immani, new things would always be an exciting adventure of learning. I saw several photos of these walls of when Immani made me fearful of learning new things about God because the new things might reveal that I was wrong in what I had imagined God to be.
It is by reason of Immani’s fears that many will shut the hearing in their ears to new things, and they will stumble in their determination to stay in their comfort zone. These are they who have fallen asleep because they will not proceed to walk any farther with the Lord because they have surrendered their heart to submit to Immani’s fear rather than to venture into the darkness that leads to the revelation of new things about God. It is a strait and narrow path that leads to abundant life, and only a few will find because only a few will not be afraid to come out of the security of their comfort zone. Now that the Lord has delivered me from all of these fears of Immani, my heart now leaps with excitement every time the Lord says that he is going to reveal new things to me. When the Lord taught me these things, he said, “I am the life. I am the new thing. I am the new life.” I have now become excited about the new things because the new things of the Lord redeem us from the old things that kept us captive to nature of these unclean spirits of this world. The new things lead me away from death and into life; from the tormenting fears of Immani into the peace of Christ.
I Corinthians 15:34 “Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.”
Proverbs 12:17 “He that speaks truth shows forth righteousness.”
John 8:31-32 “Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed on him, “If you continue in my word, then shall you be my disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (Have you ever considered that Jesus is speaking to those who believe, but he is telling them that they do not know the truth?)
Mark 6:7 “And he called to him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits.”
Psalm 62:11 “God has spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongs to God.”
Psalm 34:4 “I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all of my fears.”
I John 4:18 “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love.”
Then this old woman, who was also reminiscing by looking at all of these same old photos, said to me, “You know, Immani felt so at home in you, and you felt so at home in him during these times. He was living his life through you, and you were living his life though his senses when he was in you.” It was not so much what she said as it was how she said it, like I was being some kind of stubborn fool for not wanting to continue living my life subject to the stresses, the terror, the uncertainties, the worries, the panic, and the anxieties of Immani’s fear. Then she looked down at the floor, started shaking her head from side to side, and then led me out of Immani’s room to the next room. As soon as I walked into the next room, the atmosphere around me changed immediately. I had just been in Beelzebub’s and Immani’s rooms, and felt nothing in the atmosphere like that which I was feeling as I entered into this next room. It felt like a thick darkness and death in this room. I then realized that when I was first led into Beelzebub’s room, I had this sense, or atmosphere, of being alone, not like I was lonely, but like I was alone; and I realized that pride is really lonely because it only thinks about self. And when I went into Immani’s room, the atmosphere changed again to where I was filled with this sense of uneasiness all around me, and I could not wait to leave that room because of this feeling. I then realized that the atmosphere in each of these rooms was filled with residue of the nature of that unclean spirit that had once dwelled there. I realized that the atmosphere in this room was full of hatred, and anger and malice; and I immediately discerned that I was now in Devil’s room.
I just gasped as I began looking at the photos on the wall of this room; for I saw pictures of events that had occurred in my past that I never wanted to remember, and that I wished had never happened. The Devil is the spirit that lusts to hate (to think evil of); and that hate lusts to render some kind of judgment or another. It is Devil that loves to exercise his hatred through accusing, finding fault, slandering, belittling, judging, gossip, pointing the finger, cursing, criticism, arguments, blasphemy, blame, ridicule, strife, and condemnation. And if the tongue cannot render the judgment that would satisfy it’s hatred, then it may render some kind of physical violence to silence the voice of it’s hatred. As I looked at these photos, I saw photos from those time when others had offended me, or one of my family members, or one of my friends. I saw how I had immediately rendered some manner of evil against them for the evil that they had done. I saw through these photos how easy it is for this Devil spirit to be aroused by almost every word or deed that is spoken or done that offends “self”. The worst thing I saw in these photos was how unmerciless my tongue was when it rendered evil to others for the evil they had done to me. My tongue had truly been full of deadly poison. I was really shocked to see how my senses how been utterly corrupted by this spirit Devil, and the influence it had over the events of my past life; way more than I ever thought.
I Thessalonians 5:15 “See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all.”
John 8:44 “You are of your father the Devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”
James 3:8-10 “But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless God the Father; and with it we curse men, which are made after the similitude of God.
Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.”
I John 3:15 “Whosoever hates his brother is a murderer: and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.”
I saw photos to showed how Devil would take what would start out as a simple disagreement or misunderstanding, but once I was offended in it, then Devil would blow it up into confrontation that ended with words that could harm or destroy. I saw photos from my past life of how many of my past friendships and relationships were destroyed because of the poisonous words that came out of my mouth when Devil was exercising his hatred. Devil’s hateful desires only work to kill, or to steal, or to destroy, and I saw how he has satisfies his desires many times in my past through the words that came out of my mouth that attacked others. I saw how his words could bring so much anguish and pain and could cause so much suffering by the words that it spoke. I saw how the damage done by Devil could break up the best of relationships and friendships. There is no mercy, or grace, or forgiveness in the unclean righteousness of Devil’s words. They truly are poisonous words that bring forth death and destruction.
James 3:3-11 “Indeed, we put bits in horses’ mouths so that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body. Look also at ships: although they are so large, and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell. For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.”
I cringed as I saw photos on these walls from the youth of my old life, how when my parents would not allow for me to do something that I wanted to do, and I would say to them, “I hate you”. I saw photos of how I joined with other kids to taunt another kid just for his appearance. Most of the photos that I saw came from he days before the Lord called me, when I was atheist; an atheist that had no power to restrain my tongue. I saw how in the anger and the malice of certain moments, I really did think evil of people for almost no reason at all, like the way they wore their hair, or for their race, or for what kind job they had, or for the expression on their face, or for the clothes they wore. I certainly thought some kind of evil towards all those who disagreed with that which was right in my own eyes. If it offended, I thought some manner of evil towards them because that was what the senses in me was telling me what to do. I saw how I was totally subject to the seeing, the hearing, the feelings, the emotions, the thinking, and the speaking of Devil’s senses when I was offended in some manner or another. Death was surely working through my tongue; and truly, the power of death was working through to kill, steal, and destroy. I cringed because I was now seeing that it was not me that thought it was right to speak such evil and wicked words, but it was that which was right in the sight of the spirit Devil that had me speaking such wicked, and evil, and hurtful words.
The unclean spirit of Devil judges unrighteously because it judges without the grace of Father’s love that shows mercy and forgives. I saw through these photos on the walls all of the disagreements, all of the arguments, all of the blame, and all of the self-righteous accusations and judgments that I have spoken against my love ones, against my friends, and against my enemies. I saw photos of many that I once esteemed to be my friends and my brethren, until they offended me with what started as a simple disagreement, or a misunderstanding, or a doctrinal issue; and I saw how Devil took full advantage of those situations, and through the poison of his words, many of those relationships have been completely severed. I saw photos from my past about disagreements that I had with my wife where I would end up judging her, blaming her, accusing her, or bringing up all of her past mistakes and faults. I even so a photo of a time when my wife woke up sick, and when I asked her a question that morning, she answered me in a grumpy tone that offended me; and because I was offended, I got angry and thought evil of her for speaking to me in such a manner. I rendered my evil judgment in that matter by choosing to acknowledge her existence by ignoring her for the rest of that day. Not long after the Lord called me, I asked the Lord what caused love to depart from out of my marriage. The Lord answered and said, “The moment one starts judging the other, love begins to depart. Love does not blame, or accuse, or judge, or condemn. Love does not destroy a relationship because love does not judge. Only hatred judges”. And now I know where that hatred comes from that judges, from the spirit Devil. Thanks be to God that the Lord has now healed my wife’s heart and my heart of all the past wounds and damage that Devil had done. I do not know of any these spirits that has more power to alienate and separate than this spirit Devil does, no matter kind of human relationship it is; even the relationship a man may have with his God.
I Corinthians 3:1 “And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual, but as to carnal, even as to babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for until now you were not able to bear it, neither yet now are you able. For you are still carnal (walking after the senses of the spirit of this world): for there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions. Are you not carnal, and walk as men?”
James 3:14,15 “But if you have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, do not glory, and do not lie against the truth. This wisdom descends not from above, but is earthly, sensual, and devilish (of the Devil).”
I then noticed that there were many photos on these walls of people that I had never personally offended me, or that I had never had any kind of misunderstanding or disagreement with. I then could not help but wonder why any of these photos were even here. The Lord then reminded me that the nature of Devil is the hate that lusts to accuse, and judge, and condemn others; and when he reminded me of this, all of these people began to come back into my remembrance. These were the people that either my family, or my friends, or those who I had esteemed and honored had accused and judged to be evil; and because they were my family, and my friends, and my acquaintances, I agreed and consented with their evil and wicked accusations and judgments against those that had offended them. I will be honest with you, this really scared me to see how I had these photos of people that I did not even know, yet because others had accused and judged them to be evil, and because I had agreed with them, their accusations and judgments had become my accusations and judgments. Those who are of the world speak as the spirit of this world leads them to speak, and the world hears them. Thanks be to God that the Lord has led me to repent of that Devil spirit. It really scared me because I knew that all of these photos were pictures from moments that Devil cherished because I was delighting in walking and agreeing with the righteousness of his senses: the thinking that it is right to accuse, to judge, and to condemn others, even when it is people that I do not even know, simply because I had consented with those who have accused and judged them.
I saw in these photos all of my old grudges, and I did not see in any one of these photos where I showed any mercy, or compassion, or forgiveness because I was convinced that I was the one that was right in my judgments and accusations towards those who had offended me. I saw in these photos many wounded hearts, hurt feelings, damaged souls, and severed friendships and relationships: the fruits of the poisonous tongue that has power to kill and speak death. I again cringed at seeing how natural it was for me to walk according to Devil’s senses, to speak his words. There is no righteousness of love in any of Devil’s senses.
Revelation 13:11-13 “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb and he spoke as a dragon. And he exercises all the power (the power of death to kill, to steal, to destroy) of the first beast before him, and causes the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he does great wonders so that he makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men (accusations, blaming, malice, blasphemies, arguments, judging others, pointing the finger of guilt, cursing, and condemning).”
Ephesians 4:21-32 “If so be that you have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus, that you put off the former conversation of the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful desires, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind so that you put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Wherefore putting away lying, let every man speak truth with his neighbor: for we are members one of another. Be you angry, and sin not (do not accuse or judge): let not the sun go down on your wrath, and neither give place to the Devil. Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needs. Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth but that which is good to the use of edifying so that it may minister grace to the hearers. And do not grieve the holy Spirit of God, whereby you are sealed to the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and resentment, and quarreling, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And you be kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake has forgiven you.”
Colossians 3:8-14 “But now you also put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, and filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his deeds, and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him, where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any. As Christ forgave you, so also do you. And above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.”
Titus 3:1-7 “Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers, to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work, to speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, showing all meekness to all men. For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. But after the kindness and love of God our Savior toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost, which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior; that being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.”
Romans 13:8 “Owe no man anything but to love one another: for he that loves another has fulfilled the law… 10 “Love works no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.”
When I had my fill of these photos, I then turned my attention towards all of the trophies that Devil had piled up on the shelves in this room. I saw many trophies that he had won when I chose to judge others, including my brethren, rather than to love them. In the days of my youth, when I was still ignorant of the ways of the Lord, I was deceived into believing that it was more righteous for me to accuse and judge those who were disobedient to the word of the Lord rather than to love and forgive them. I saw the trophies that Devil won every time that I chose to render evil back to those who had done evil to me, rather than to show them mercy and forgiveness. I saw the trophies that he won when I had deceived me into thinking that it was more righteous to curse those who had cursed me rather than to bless them, as Jesus had instructed us. And there were those trophies that Devil won when I chose to follow his counsels to hate those who hated me rather than to do good to them as Jesus instructed us. Of course, I saw that Devil had won most of these trophies from the days of my iniquity, when in my ignorance and zealousness, I used the scriptures, according to the letter of the word to accuse, and judge, and condemn those who had sinned against God. The Lord had showed to me that every time that I had done this, I was calling fire down from heaven to destroy. Of course, just like James and John, the Lord rebuked me also saying that I did not know what manner of spirit I was of; that those who call fire down from heaven are those who are led by the Devil spirit to accuse, to judge, and condemn others in the name of God. Those who do such things are they that think that the darkness within them is the true light of God. When I did all of these things, I did them because I was blind, and at the time, it seemed right in my own eyes; and all of the senses, my hearing, my feelings, my emotions, my desires, my thinking, and my speaking agreed with it. Will a man do anything other than that which is right in his eyes to do? Then the Lord opened my eyes and showed to me how much he loves all of us, regardless of what state we are in, and that out of love he died for every single man on this earth, whether they believe it or not believe it. Who was I to destroy those who Jesus came to save?
Romans 13:8 “Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loves another has fulfilled the law.”
Luke 9:54-56 “And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, would you have us to command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elijah did?” But Jesus turned and rebuked them saying, “You do not know what manner of spirit you are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them…”
Revelation 13:11-13 “Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon (false brethren that appear righteous). It exercised all the power of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people. Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived.”
Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.
Oh, the wondrous works of the grace of Father’s love and the blood of Christ that covers the multitudes of sins that I daily committed when I was still carnally minded and walked according to the senses of the spirit of this world! Oh how wonderful it is that God makes his mercies to be new for us every day; and he commands his mercies to stand forever! For many years, I was so thankful just to come into the belief that God was real; but now I am far more thankful to come into the knowledge that his love his real, knowing that the forgiveness, the mercies, the goodness, the blessings, and the grace of his love is the true reality. I am so thankful that the Lord has now given to me his eyes to see, that I no longer see that it is ever right to accuse, or find fault, or to belittle, or to judge, or to blame, or to condemn anyone, no matter what they may say or do. It is truly amazing what God is able to do when he just opens our eyes to see as he sees.
Then this old woman lead me out of Devil’s room, and as I walked out, I took one last look at these photos, and it just made my heart so thankful that Jesus has come and delivered me from this Devil spirit and the bitterness of his hatred. As I walked out of this room, I myself cut the light off, not ever wanting to remember any of these events ever again. Glory be to God. I cannot wait to see the day that the people of God rise up and make the spirits of this world to be their enemy instead of one another; and that is very soon to happen. Oh, how wonderful it is going to be when the brethren come to dwell in unity, free from all of Devils desires to accuse, to find fault, to judge, to blame, and to condemn one another. Love never thinks to do any of these wicked works. An eye for an eye?
Zephaniah 3:15 “The Lord has taken away your judgments; he has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of you, and you shall not see evil any more.”
This woman then led me into Malaise’s room, and there I saw photos from of all of the times that I had been miserably sick. Not much to say about what I saw in this room that most of us have not experienced at one time or another. Then I was led into Shadow’s room, which may have been the most interesting of all the photos that I had seen in any of these rooms; and the reason is because many of these photos were of events that never even happened. Why? Because Shadow is that spirit that always forecasts that the “worst case scenario” is that which is going to happen; and if you believe it’s lies, then in your mind, you suffer as if the “worst case scenario” actually happened. I could probably count on one hand the times that the “worst case scenario” actually came to past. Even so, this room was filled with nothing but photos of those events that I believed that the worst was going to happen because I had believed what I saw in my imaginations.
Shadow is the spirit that conceives, and then prophesies into our imaginations all of the “worst case scenarios” that could happen in any given circumstance or situation. And if any of Shadows lies are believed, they will then torment the mind with stress, anxiety, worry, and dread about that future circumstance or situation. I saw in these photos the torment and misery that I experienced in my mind when Shadow had me convinced that it was impossible for any good to come out of the circumstances or the situations that I was facing. One the first pictures I saw on the wall was from a time when I was small child, around 4 or 5, and I swallowed a orange seed. Shadow then appeared in my imaginations and began to prophesy to me that I was going to die because that seed was going to grow into a tree, and I believed that this lie was truth; and no one could tell me any different. I cried and cried for hours, miserably tormented in my thoughts. Of course, no harm came to me at all by that seed, but that is not Shadow wanted me to believe. In fact, there were many photos on the wall where I saw Shadow’s presence when an health situation arose. If I saw a blemish, or a bump, or a lump on my body, or whenever I physically felt bad, then I would not have to wait long for Shadow to begin to prophesy to me that the “worst case scenario” was the forecast and prognostication. Many times Shadow tried to convince me that I either had cancer, or tumor, or aids, or heart disease. Lies, lies, lies, and more lies. Shadow is surely the fear and dread that the worst is that which is surely going to come to past. So it was not surprising to me when I saw that many of the photos in this room were of events that actually did not happen except in my own mind.
I saw one photo that really jumped out at me because it was of an event where the Lord first began to deliver me from Shadow’s lies. It was December 1999, and I had listened to a few of Shadow’s prophets forecasting the “worst case scenario” concerning Y2K, and what was going to happen with all of the computers at midnight on 1/1/00. I owned my own business at that time, and I had about $250,000.00 in the bank. After hearing about what many were saying about Y2K, Shadow began to entertain me with its fears and dreads of what could happen to my company if I lost all of my money to this computer glitch. So I went to the Lord and said, “Lord, these prophets are telling me that I should take heed to their words and remove my money from the bank. What do you say?” The Lord answered me and said, “Take no thought for tomorrow.” That was it. That was all that the Lord had to say about that matter. I then chose to put my trust in the word that the Lord had given to me, which the scriptures also confirm, and I resisted all Shadow’s fears and dreads that came into my mind by regarding them to be nothing but lies that were trying to overcome the word that Father had given to me. If I had believed what the false prophets had said, then I would have spent my days miserably tormented with Shadow’s fears and dread. The Lord not only delivered me from Shadow’s lies with the truth if his word, but he delivered me from all of the worries and stress that accompany Shadow’s fears and dreads. He actually filled my mind with a whole lot of peace after I chose to believe his words.
Matthew 6:33,34 “But you seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Therefore, take no thought for tomorrow: for tomorrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof.”
Proverbs 3:6 “In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.”
Isaiah 26:3 You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you because he trusts in you.
Proverbs 16:3 “Commit your works to the Lord, and your thoughts shall be established.”
Romans 15:13 “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
The next room that I was led into was Babylon’s room. O gosh, when I realized what room that I was going into, I knew I that I was going to see all of the photos where this unclean spirit led me to build a monument to “Mitt”. What first surprised me when I first began looking at the photos in this room was that these photos were not only about “Mitt”, but about God also; two distinctly different categories. First, there were those photos that I expected to see from those times that I worshipped and served the image that I had made for myself when I thought that I was righteous and good through the works that I was doing for myself. I saw the works that I was doing during those time where I tried to overcome the desires of my flesh by my own will power (which was the most miserable times of my entire life). I saw photos from those times that I looked in the mirror, and all that I could was the righteous and good works that I had done; and that image sure looked right and good in my own eyes. Most of the photos that I saw were taken from this time when I walked as hypocrite (play-actor), trying the best that I could to make myself to be like the image that I had of Jesus Christ. That image looked good in the sight of men, but it was so deceiving that it actually deceived me into believing that I was really righteous and good. I saw the photo from the time that I had been so fully deceived, at the pinnacle of my self-righteousness, that I seriously said, “Lord, what did you come to save me from?” Oh how blind and foolish I was when I worshipped and served the creature, the image of the beast, rather than God.
I saw photos of when I serving the creature rather than God when I sat in the seat of God, rendering my judgments against others; when I leaned to my own understanding; when I trusted in my own feelings and emotions for guidance; when I tried to take control over my own life; when I gave counsel to others concerning how I thought they should live their lives; when I wanted recognition and praise for my own works; when I wanted to serve God according to my own will; and when I wanted to call fire to come down from heaven to destroy the unrighteous and wicked. Yep, this room was filled with plenty of photos of self-worship because of all that I did to show myself to be like God. And to think that until the Lord corrected me of all these wicked works, the blood of Jesus Christ was covering all of these dead works. Just how wonderful and great is the grace of our Father’s love?
Then there was this second group of photos that were taken not when I served the creature rather than God, but when I served the Creator but according to the imagination of my own opinions of who and what I thought God was like. I saw photos from those times when I condemned myself for my own weaknesses and sins because I believed that this was how God was also treating me for my weaknesses and sins. False image. I saw photos from those times that I thought that God was trying me so that I could show him how strong and righteous I was instead of seeing that when God tried me, he was just trying to reveal my weaknesses and my unrighteousness so that he could strengthen me and correct them. I saw photos from those times when I thought that God required for my own works to accompany my faith instead of having his works accompanying my faith. I saw photos from those times when I was convinced that God was like that which I had imagined him to be, that he would not be faithful to his words and true to me to perform those works that his words say that he will do. I saw also photos from those times when I served that false image of God that was saying that God really did not care about me, or that he did not love me, and that he would not bless me or give to me that which I was seeking for. These were false images of God because they images that portrayed God as a liar. In fact, just about every false image I had of God came about because I thought that he required for me to do the works that he says that he will do; and those works are impossible for any man to do.
I Corinthians 2:3-5 “And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power so that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.”
Psalm 57:2 “I will cry to God most high; to God that performs all things for me.”
II Corinthians 12:9,10 “He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my weaknesses so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then am I made strong.”
Then I began to see the scariest and creepiest of all the photos that I saw in this vision, and it came in this room. These were photos that where I twisted and perverted God and his words so that I could justify my own self-righteousness. If the word said, “Judge not”; I then changed Jesus into another image that did judge so that I could be justified in judging others. If the word said, “Do not render evil for evil, but render good for evil”, I would again then change Jesus into an image that did render evil for evil so that I could be justified when I rendered evil for evil towards those that had offended me, If the word said, “Love your enemies”, then I would change Jesus into an image that did not love his enemies so that I could justify myself in not loving my enemies. I clearly saw in these photos the times that I was trying to change Jesus into my image instead of allowing for him to change me into his image. It was for this reason that these photos were the scariest and creepiest of all because I saw how I twisted and perverted the image of Christ to be an image that satisfied my own desires at that time; or rather, the spirit Babylon’s desires.
John 4:22-24 “You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship him. God is Spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
Romans 1:21-25 “Because that, when they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, and neither were they thankful. But they became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.”
Job 42:7 “And it was so that after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, he then said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends: for you have not spoken of me the thing that is right as my servant Job has.”
But again, thanks to be God for his grace and his mercy, for he has now corrected me by opening my eyes to see the truth about him, and about myself. One thing that I could clearly see from these past times was that I never served or worshipped anything, whether it be the false images I had of myself, or the false images I had of God, or the truth about myself, or the truth about God, except that I first saw that it was right in my eyes to do so. Now I can see clearly how the spirit Babylon is always at work in his attempts to lead us to worship and serve God according to that which is right in his eyes, which tempts us to worship and serve God according to our own choosing, and not in spirit and truth.
John 4:21-26 Jesus replied, “Woman, believe me, the time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. Yet a time is coming, and has now come, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” The woman said, “I know that Messiah, who is called Christ, is coming; and when he comes, he will explain everything to us.” Then Jesus declared, “I, who am speaking to you, am he.”
Just like all of the other unclean spirits, Babylon got his trophies every time that I chose to believe Babylon’s counsels rather than the counsel of God’s words. It was then that I began to realize that every victory trophy that I had seen was awarded when I “chose” to believe the lies of this world rather than the truth of God. Has not the Lord repeatedly said that there are none who are righteous, and none who are good except God? Well. I saw that Babylon had many photos and many trophies in his room that came from those times that I had been deceived me into believing that I was righteous and I was good, right alongside God, because all that I could see was that righteous and good image that I had of myself. In the days of my captivity to Babylon, I truly served, and worshipped, and loved the image of the beast; that false image that I had of myself that left me without having any relationship or fellowship with my heavenly Father. There were not only trophies in this room that Babylon won when he deceived me into worshipping and serving this self-image, but there were also trophies that he won when I was able to deceive others into believing that I was righteous and good through the image that I portrayed in the sight of others as well.
There were obviously many trophies also in this room, and probably even more than in any of the other rooms. But the trophies in this room were different than all of the other trophies in that they all resembled little gold idols that were in the shape of a man rather than a trophy. I thought that it was very ironic that these little gold idols were almost identical in shape, and size, and appearance as the Oscar award that goes to the “best movie actors” for the roles they play, seeing that the hypocrite also gets his reward for his “play acting”. Just like these movie actors, the hypocrites get rewarded with glory and fame over the role they play when they try to show themselves to be righteous and good as God only is. Acting is nothing but pretending, whether it be through appearances, or words, or works. Surely the best acting trophy goes to the one who plays his role so good, that he actually believes that he is that goodness and that righteousness that he portrays himself to be. It is written in Proverbs, “A man “is” that which he thinks in his heart, and not that which he portrays himself to be. How many times in my past have I greeted people with a smile on my face, but my mind was thinking evil thoughts of them? How would this world be if there was no spirit Babylon to lead men into portraying themselves to be something that they are not?
Then last but no least, this woman led me into Stoimina’s room. And of course, there were also many photos in this room from the days before the Lord called me, when I was an atheist. These were the days when Stoimina had deceived me, and completely convinced me that there was no God at all. And there were the photos that came from those days after the Lord called me, but I was still disobedient to God because of the unbelief that I had of his words and doubtful about his love for me. I also saw photos from those times that I was zealous for God just Israel was zealous for but when they were ignorant of him, and they, just like me, went about doing all that which was right in their own eyes. In those days, I did believe that God was real, that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of the living God, that Jesus was crucified and rose again on the third day, and that my sins were covered by his blood. But I had not yet come to know God, nor had I yet to enter into that belief that all things are possible for those who believe on him. So a lot of these photos came from the times that I walked in my religion, disguising my lack of faith and unbelief with outward works that appeared righteous. It is so amazing how religion Is able to hide our unbelief and doubts. There are no works that a man can do that are better able to justify his doubts and unbelief than the good appearances and righteous works of that satisfy religious doctrines.
Romans 10:2,3 “For I bear Israel record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God’s righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God.”
Hebrews 11:6 “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
You will never see the presence of God appear in any photos where religious works are done. Maybe the god of this world will show up as the darkness that appears as the light, but the true light of God will not be there. The god of this world, the spirit of this world, and the wisdom of this world love man’s religion and man’s doctrines because they are all established through the darkness of man’s ignorance of God, and all of the works done through this ignorance are works that please the world, and not God. Is it any wonder they crucified Jesus because these were the very works that he testified of to be evil. Though they say they worship and serve God through Jesus Christ, the spirits of this world and the wisdom of this world continue their reign over the thoughts of their mind and the desires of their heart.
II Peter 2:18-22 “For when they speak great swelling words of vanity (self-image), they allure through the desires of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment (to love God, not self) delivered to them. But it is happened to them according to the true proverb, “The dog is turned again to his own vomit; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.”
Out of the darkness of man’s ignorance of God, and his ignorance of God’s love, comes forth all the doubt, unbelief, hopelessness, and reasonings that oppose God. These are the works of Stoimina. It is impossible for Stoimina to subject itself to the law of faith, and law of truth, and the law of love because Stoimina is the spirit who by its very nature only doubts God, does not believe his truth, and that always reasons against his words. It is Stoimina that brings forth all of the reasonings as to why a man should not believe, or trust, or be faithful to God. I then saw an area of photos that contained the same photos that I had seen in the rooms of the other six unclean spirits. I then asked why these photos were in Stoimina’s room. She then told me that Stoimina, being the voice of reason, is the spokesman that speaks all reasonings that oppose God and that defend all of these other unclean spirits. Stoimina is the spirit that is the ambassador of this world, the spirit that through reasonings negotiates between the spirits of this world and the soul of man.
Though there are seven unclean spirits, Stoimina is voice that all men are familiar because it is the voice that speaks into the consciousness of men’s imaginations. He is the voice that speaks for all of these spirits of this world, bringing forth the reasons why a man should believe, and trust, and follow after the counsels of Beelzebub (pride), Immani (fear), Shadow (the fear and dread of what may happen in the future), Devil (accusing, judging, and condemning others), Babylon (the confusion and double-mindedness of man’s identity), and Malaise (infirmity). And of course, Stoimina is the voice that man hears in his thoughts that brings forth those reasons that ask “Why?”: reasons why a man should not believe on the Lord; reasons why a man should not hearken to the voice to God; reasons why a man should not believe the words of God; reasons why a man should not put his trust in God’s love; reasons why a man should not obey the commandments of the Lord; and reasons why a man should not be faithful to God. From Stoimina comes forth all of the “why” questions that God never answers. “Why” questions demand for God to answer to this world; and God does not hear this world, much less answer to it. Stoimina speaks for all of these unclean spirits of this world when they say, “You belong to me! You are mine!” This room was filled with all manner of photos from those times when I allowed the reasons of Stoimina to harden my heart after I heard the voice of God, and I made Stoimina’s reasonings to be my righteousness, and unbelief and doubt to be my works.
Genesis 6:5 “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.”
Nahum 1:11-14 “There is one come out of you that imagines evil against the LORD, a wicked counselor. Thus says the Lord, “Though they (the spirits of this world) be quiet, and likewise many, yet thus shall they be cut down, when he shall pass through. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more. For now will I break his yoke from off you, and I will burst your bonds in sunder. And the Lord has given a commandment concerning you, that no more of thy name (the spirit of this world) be sown: out of the house of your gods will I cut off the graven image and the molten image: I will make your grave; for you (the spirit of this world, the wicked counselor) are vile.”
II Corinthians 10:3-6 AMP “For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons. For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds, [inasmuch as we] refute arguments. and imaginations, and reasonings, and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed one), being in readiness to punish every [insubordinate for his] disobedience, when your own submission and obedience [as a church] are fully secured and complete.”
Then I began to look at the trophies around the room, and of course, there was no lack of them either. I saw plenty of trophies that again went back to the time that I was atheist, when I believed there was no God. I also saw trophies from the times of my ignorance, after I was first called, but did not believe that God could truly love someone like me, or that he could truly forgive and forget all of the sins that I had committed against him. It was chilling for me to see that in these times of unbelief and doubt, Stoimina was daily winning trophies because I was believing his lying reasons as to why I should walk in the ways that seem right instead of asking the Lord to lead me in the way that is right. There were trophies from those times when I had believed the lies that said God had forsaken me, and those lies that said that God wanted for me to suffer. Then there were those trophies from my self-righteous days when I did not believe that God truly loved all men. There were trophies when I did not believe that God would heal me of my sicknesses or that he save me from my fears. It was really hard for me to look at these trophies because Stoimina had won these trophies in those times that I had chosen to believe the lies that led me to separate myself from God. But thanks be to God who has fore bared with me, covered me with his blood, forgiven me, and cleansed me from the unrighteousness of unbelief, reasonings, hopelessness, and doubt. My heavenly Father has now redeemed me from Stoimina’s senses, and set me free from this really wicked unclean spirit.
Jeremiah 9:6 “You habitation is in the midst of deceit; for through deceit they refuse to know me”, says the Lord.
Then this old woman led me out Stoimina’s room; and as she did, she began to tell me how each one of these seven unclean spirits were her special lovers. She said that she loved her lovers so much that they could do no wrong in eyes; and for this reason, she has always labored to bring forth their counsels into my imaginations because their counsels just always seem like the right thing to do for her. She said she has always been able to justify any of their counsels that I had previously chosen to follow after. Through her justification, she has blinded my sees so that I could not see any wrong, or sin, or fault, or error when I bowed my heart to believe to follow after the counsel of words of came from these seven unclean spirits. It was then that I my eyes were opened to recognize that this old woman was the wisdom of this world; the wisdom of this world who only has a vision to see those things that seem right, and is blind to see those things that are right in the sight of God. She only loves the god of this world and the spirits of this world. She is the wisdom that hates God, and will never agree to subject herself to God or to any of his counsels.
Matthew 11:19 “The Son of Man came eating and drinking and they say, “Look, a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!” For wisdom is justified by her children (that which she and the spirits of this world conceive; in this case with Jesus, Devils accusations).”
If Devil tempted me to accuse or to judge another, even though Jesus said, “Judge not”, she would always be there with the desire to believe a reason that would make it seem more right to follow after Devil’s counsel instead God‘s. If Stoimina tempted me to doubt God’s love for me, or, not to believe the word of God, then she would always be there with the desire to tempt me to believe a reason that would allow for me to justify doubting God or not believing his word, even though it is written that whatsoever is not of faith is sin. If Immani tempted with his fears as to why I should walk in his stress, his worries, and his anxieties, then she would always be there with the desire to believe the reason that would justify me walking in fear, even though Jesus said, “Do not be afraid.” If Beelzebub tempted with his counsels to exalt or to glorify myself, then she would be with desire to believe the reason that would allow for me to justify doing that which Jesus said not to do. Then this old woman went on the explain that she was able to justify any of the counsels or the works that her lovers brought forth by making them to appear right in my eyes so that I could find some peace within my heart when I sinned against God. I then realized that it was through her desires to believe Stoimina’s reasons that a man will try to justify himself so that he can find some peace when he chooses to follow after any of these ungodly counselors.
Psalm 1:1,2 “Blessed is the man that walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law does he meditate day and night.”
Psalm 28:3 “Do not take me away with the wicked and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbors, but evil is in their hearts.”
Then the Lord opened my understanding to comprehend that this old woman, this old whore, she is the mother of all abominations and harlotry. It is she, and I call her a she because the wisdom of God, that which she is a shadow of, is always spoken of in the book of Proverbs as a she. It is she who bewitches the ignorant with her desires to believe Stoimina’s magical reasons that somehow seem able to justify any and all disobedience against God. She is the voice that speaks peace to the mind when sin and disobedience has been justified by man. See is the one that speaks “Peace, Peace” to the soul so that it is not the least bit troubled with any guilt or shame; for without any guilt or shame, the deceived will actually be able to find pleasure in the sins and iniquities they walk in. Even when the ignorant condemn themselves, they only do so because it is that which is right in the eyes of this world’s wisdom to do so. Love never condemns anyone. It is the wisdom of this world that makes the heart to be deceitful above all things; and she is greatly loved by all those who love to submit themselves to believe her reasons and the lies that come forth from the spirits of this world. She is the wisdom of this world, the whore that sits upon the beast with the seven heads; and she leads the beast according to the vision she gives to it; for that which the sees to be right is that which the beast also sees to be right. An eye for an eye?
Ecclesiastes 3:18 “I said in my heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.”
Psalm 73:22 “So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before you.”
Revelation 17:3-7 “So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit on a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.
And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. And the angel said to me, “Why did you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns…………
……18:4-8 “And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities. Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her. In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously (pleasurably), in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, ‘I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow. Therefore her plagues will come in one day — death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.” (Is God going to be judging man, or is he going to be judging the wisdom of this world?)
II Thessalonians 5:2-5 “For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, “Peace and safety”; then sudden destruction comes upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But you brethren, are not in darkness so that that day should overtake you as a thief. You are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.”
Jeremiah 6:13-15 “Because from the least of them even to the greatest of them, everyone is given to covetousness (greed for unjust gain). And from the prophet even to the priest, everyone deals falsely. They have also healed the hurt of my people slightly saying, ‘Peace, peace!’ when there is no peace. Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No! They were not at all ashamed; nor did they know how to blush. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall, and at the time I visit them they shall be cast down,” says the Lord.
Hebrews 11:24,25 “By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.”
Zephaniah 3:5 “The righteous Lord is in her midst, and he will do no unrighteousness. Every morning he brings His judgment to light; he never fails. But the unjust knows no shame.”
Proverbs 16:25 “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.”
Proverbs 5:1-5 “My son, attend to my wisdom, and bow your ear to my understanding so that you may regard discretion and your lips may keep knowledge. For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: but her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.”
Job 15:5-6 “For your mouth utters your iniquity (what is right in your own eyes), and you choose the tongue of the crafty. Your own mouth condemns you, and not I. Yes, your own lips testify against you.”
Matthew 12:36-37 “But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Those who walk in faith, they are wise to simply allow for the blood of Jesus Christ and the grace of Father’s love to justify their sins and iniquities, while those who are wise in their own eyes will choose to cover their sins, their weaknesses, and their iniquities with the lies of self-justification. Self-justification is that unclean garment of filthy rags that the ignorant use to clothe their sins with; for in the eyes of the ignorant, there is no wrong, or shame, or guilt after a sin or weakness has been justified. Now the faithful know that in the sight of God, all that is needful for their sins and iniquities to be covered is for them to believe that the blood of Jesus Christ was shed to cover them. I then perceived that when this great whore desires to commit fornication with any of these kings of the earth, then that man is being tempted by her desires to do that which is right in their eyes; and the way that seems right, leads only to death. When the soul submits to her desires to follow after the counsels of any one of these seven kings, then comes forth sin; and when is finished, or that which seems right is done, then comes the miseries of death.
Satan, the god of this world, is Mr. Liar, and the wisdom of this world, the queen of this world, is his ho, Ms. Liar. I saw that when the children of this world walk after the desires of this world, and because they have not been called into union with God, they commit fornication in the sight of God. But when the church, the bride of Christ, walks after the desires of this world, they commit adultery in the sight of God. It makes no difference whether they walk after desires of pride, or fear, or unbelief, or double-mindedness, or accusing and judging others, or dread, or in the desires to exalt and glorify self, for they are all the sins of this world. There is no doubt that I now agree with Paul when he said, “I am chief sinner.”
James 1:13-16 “Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted of God”; for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts he any man. But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own desires, and enticed. Then when desire has conceived, it brings forth sin: and sin, when it is finished (being justified), brings forth death.” Do not err, my beloved brethren.”
James 4:4 “You adulterers and adulteresses, do you not now that the friendship of the world (I John 2:15-17) is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Do you think that the scripture says in vain, “The spirit (of this world) that dwells in us lusts to envy?”
I John 2:15-17 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” For all that is in the world, the desires of the flesh, and the desires of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the desires thereof: but he that does the will of God abides for ever.”
A man’s iniquity (or rather, his adultery) is not the sin that he commits, but rather it is when he justifies that sin that makes God offended. God is not offended in the least when a sin is confessed because he delights in forgiving us and cleansing us from it. The Lord made it clear for to me to see that I commit spiritual adultery in his sight when I agree with the lies that the wisdom of this world brings forth to cover sin with self-justification. This is spiritual adultery is the iniquity of man.
II Timothy 2:19-22 “Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, “The Lord knows them that are his“. And let every one that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor. If a man therefore purge himself from these (his iniquities), then he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and ready for the master’s use, and prepared for every good work. Flee also youthful lusts and follow righteousness, faith, love, and peace with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.”
Ezekiel 33:13 “When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he has committed, he shall die for it.”
Luke 18:9-14 “And Jesus spoke this parable to those that trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: Two men went up to the temple to pray; one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, “God, I thank you that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. I fast twice in the week, and I give tithes of all that I possess. And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes to heaven, but he beat on his breast saying, “God be merciful to me a sinner.” I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for everyone that exalts himself shall be abased; and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.”
Matthew 7:21-23 Jesus said, “Not every one that says to me, “Lord, Lord”, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day (trying to justify themselves), “Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? And in your name have we not cast out demons? And in your name done many wonderful works?” And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.”
Then this old woman told me that she was the one that took all of the photos that I had seen in all seven of these rooms. She spoke of the times that these photos were taken as though I was her child, and as I was also a child of the spirit of his world. Then like any parent would, she delighted taking photos of her children and her lovers. She said that she took all of these photos in those times that were very precious to her because they were times when she, and whichever king or unclean spirit it might be, were having their way with me, and they were pleasuring themselves together as I had surrendered and joined myself together with them in their acts of sin and iniquity. At that moment I felt so shamefully filthy knowing that my sin and iniquities were the fruits of their sinful pleasures, and that I had ignorantly consented with them. What else could this whorish wisdom and Immani pleasure themselves in except in those times when my heart was surrendered to believe that it was right for me to walk in the anxieties, or the stress, or the worries of his fears? What else could this whorish wisdom and Beelzebub pleasure themselves in except in those times when I thought it was right for me to surrender my heart to their desires for me to love myself and to take control over my own life? What else could this whorish wisdom and Babylon pleasure themselves in except in those times that I thought that it was right for me to walk in hypocrisy, presenting myself in the image of being a good Christian by my own good intentions and righteous works?
What else could this whorish wisdom and Stoimina pleasure themselves in except in those times that I thought that it was right for me to walk in unbelief of God’s words, in doubts about his love, and in rebellion of God’s counsels? Of course they pleasured themselves in those times that I thought that it was right for me to also trust my own senses and believe in myself because it was their senses in me that was leading me to do so. What else could this whorish wisdom and Devil pleasure themselves in except those times that I thought that it was right for me to exercise my hate towards others by accusing, or criticizing, or judging, or slandering, mocking, or condemning him for his sins or weaknesses? I saw how they pleasured themselves also in those past times when I walked in the bitterness of unforgiveness. I saw clearly that the fruit that came forth from this Ménage à trois of fornication and adultery was that the uncleanness of their righteousness became the uncleanness in my righteousness; and this uncleanness is as disgusting in the sight of God as the filthy rags of a menstruous cloth is. Paul accounted this same righteousness to be as nothing but dung because this is the righteousness that alienate and separates a man from his God. God did not create Adam with any such righteousness in him. I then remembered that the Lord revealed to me that their righteousness is what the ignorant man calls human nature. But it is not human nature at all, but the beast nature that is subject to all of the senses of the spirit of this world. Again, is it any wonder why God sees all those who walk after the wisdom of this world to be foolish?
Hosea 4:10-12 “For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord. Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart. My people ask counsel at their idols, and their staff declares to them: for the spirit of whoredoms has caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.”
Ezekiel 16:36-37 “Thus says the Lord God; “Because your filthiness was poured out, and your nakedness discovered through your whoredoms with your lovers, and with all the idols of your abominations, and by the blood of your children, which you did give to them; Behold, therefore I will gather all your lovers, with whom you have taken pleasure, and all them that you have loved, with all them that you have hated; I will even gather them round about against you, and will discover your nakedness to them that they may see all your nakedness.”
Psalm 90:8 You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your countenance.
I Corinthians 6:15-20 “Do you not know that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. What? Do you not know that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? For two, says he, shall be one flesh. But he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit. Flee fornication. Every sin that a man does is outside the body; but he that commits fornication sins against his own body. What? Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own? For you are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
Jeremiah 3:1 “They say, “If a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man’s, shall he return unto her again? Shall not that land be greatly polluted? But you have played the harlot with many lovers; yet return again to me”, says the Lord.
Then suddenly, all of the floors and the walls of this house started violently shaking; and when they did, this old woman began screaming out of pure terror because that is how her senses lead her to respond in drastic situations that go beyond her control. But I was not at all afraid or fearful, even though every square inch of this house was shaking, all the way down through its foundation. It was as if we were in the midst of 8.0 earthquake, but I was just quietly standing there. Then suddenly, Jesus, appeared, and he was at least 12 feet tall, and all muscle bound in all his power and might. He then burst into this house, taking the door completely out, as well as all of the wall that had surrounded that door, as he walked through it. Without any hesitation he began tearing this house down, room by room, board by board, and brick by brick. Yet, at no time was I afraid as Jesus tore down every piece of this house. I actually felt like I was being freed from all of the old memories that I had seen in all of the photos that had depicted my past life. As Jesus kept ripping this house apart, I felt like I was being liberated from all remnants of my captivity to this world’s pleasures. Instead of fear, I was rejoicing, feeling a sense of freedom like nothing I have ever experienced before with the Lord, which even now I cannot explain. When this house, or my prison, was torn completely apart, then Jesus went to work on the foundation, and he did not stop until there was not one brick, or rather one stone, left upon another. When he had finished, counsel entered into me that instructed me to look up; and when I did, I saw my new house, New Jerusalem, that which had prepared for me in heaven, descending down all around me. But before I was able to experience this new house, the Lord brought this vision to an end right before I had the chance to see or to feel what it would be like to live in my new house.
Matthew 24:1-3 “And Jesus went out and departed from the temple. Then his disciples came to him and asked for him to show them the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said to them, “Do you not “see” all of these things? truly I say to you that there shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the “world”?”
Hebrews 12:25-29 “See that you do not refuse him that speaks. For if they did not escape who refused him that spoke on earth, then much more shall we not escape if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth. But now he has promised saying, “Yet once more I shake not the earth (body) only, but also heaven (mind). And this word, yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.
For our God is a consuming fire.”
Mark 3:25-27 “And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but has an end. No man can enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.”
Proverbs 15:25 “The Lord will destroy the house of the proud…”
1 Corinthians 1:18-19 “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
II Corinthians 5:1-4 “For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we would have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven, if so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.”
I Corinthians 6:19 “Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?”
II Thessalonians 2:3-8 “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. Remember you not that when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now you know what withholds so that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity does already work: only he who now lets will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.”
After this vision was over, the Lord began to give me more understanding about the righteousness of this world verses the righteousness of God; and it is very simple: “Every man lives, and moves, and sees the purpose of his being according to the vision that is in his eyes. Those who are wise in their own eyes, not only will they see it foolish to hearken to God, but they will also see that nothing of God is right for them to follow after because their senses, being the senses of spirit of this world, will just simply not allow it. These are the blind that cannot discern that it is by these righteousness in their senses that they are kept separated and alienated from being partakers of the abundant life that has prepared and intended for all men to be partakers of.
Proverbs 21:2 “Every way of man is right in his own eyes…”
Job 42:7 “And it was so that after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, the Lord then said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you, and against your two friends because you have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job has.”
KJV
Romans 1:18-25 “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold (repress) the truth in unrighteousness (self-justification);
because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it to them…
21 Because that, when they knew God, they did not glorify him as God, neither were they thankful; but they became vain in their imaginations and their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness (the righteousness of their self-justification) through the desires of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves, who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.”
The Lord then said to me, “It is impossible for the children of this world to see anything to be right other than the manner that the world dictates to them. That which the unclean spirit of Babylon sees to be right, it will also be that which those who are wise in their own eyes will see to be right. That which the unclean spirit of Beelzebub sees to be right is that which also will be right in the sight of those who are wise in their own eyes. That which the unclean spirit of Devil sees to be right will also be that which is right in the sight of those who are wise in their own eyes. That which the unclean spirit of Immani, of Shadow, of Stoimina, and Malaise will also be that which is right in the sight of those who are wise in their own eyes. The wisdom of this world, without any exceptions, will always sees eye to eye with that which is right in the sight of these unclean spirits of this world. I will remind you once again, “Take heed that the light that is within you is not darkness because the light of the body is the eye. How the eye sees will determine whose righteousness a man will live his life according to. I am the light of the world. Father made me to be righteousness for you; to open the eyes that have been blinded by this world, to reconcile and restore a man unto his God. An eye for an eye?
John 9:39-41 “And Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world so that those who do not see may see (as God sees), and that those who see may be made blind.” Then some of the Pharisees who were with him heard these words, and they said to him, “Are we blind also?”
Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now because you say, “We see (the righteousness that comes from man’s attempts to keep the law).” Therefore your sin (the spirit of this world) remains.”
Proverbs 21:2 “Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord ponders the heart.”
Proverbs 3:5-7 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.”
Zephaniah 3:14-16 “Sing, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem! The Lord has taken away your judgments (how the spirit of this world sees), he has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst, and you shall see evil no more. In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: “Do not fear, Zion. Let not your hands be weak. The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty one, will save. He will rejoice over you with gladness, he will quiet you with his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.”
Acts 26:15-18 “And I (Paul) said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus whom you persecute. But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of these things which you have seen, and of those things in the which I will appear to you; to deliver you from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send you, to open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light, from the power of Satan to God so that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.”
1 Corinthians 2:6-12 “Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought. But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory, which none of the princes of this world knew; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But as it is written, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for them that love him. But God has revealed them to us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of man which is in him? Even so the things of God knows no man except the Spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God so that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.”
John 17:14-17 “I have given them your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I do not pray that you should take them out of the world, but that you should keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through your truth: your word is truth.”
Then a few days later, the Lord gave me this vision. I saw myself lying inside of this plain, wooden coffin. I was immediately surprised to see how roomy, and comfortable, and pleasant it was for me to even be lying in a coffin. It was actually as comfortable to me as if I was laying in a king size bed. I then noticed that I was not alone in this coffin, but I found that these seven unclean spirits were also laying in this coffin with me. But what amazed was that they all looked exactly like me. It was like seeing 8 Mitt Jeffords in that coffin. I then noticed that all of these unclean spirits seemed to be very nervous, cramped together, and extremely uncomfortable while I felt greatly at peace, roomy, and very comfortable. They looked like they were stuffed into a very small area around the sides of this coffin; and though they were all jammed up against one another, it did not appear as though I was anywhere close to any of them. I could tell that each one of these spirits was very afraid and very angry about where he was. It was just strange to see that I was so very comfortable in this coffin, while they seemed to be utterly miserable, full of griping and complaining.
I then asked the Lord to explain this vision to me, and this is what he said: “My Father, before this world ever began, appointed for all to be conformed to my image; to the image of a son of God. But before any man can take on my identity, he must first be willing to die to his old identity as a child of this world. The day that you chose to fulfill your destiny, to be conformed to my image, is also the day that you began separating yourself from your old identity as a child of this world. Those who reject their identity as a child of this world are they who seek to die to the desires of this world’s wisdom as well as the senses that come forth from the spirit of this world. When you began to willingly and freely lay down your old identity as your sacrifice before me, then all of these unclean spirits became afraid and uncomfortable because they know that I am only going to raise up your soul from out of this worldly coffin. But if you are going to be made to be a partaker of the resurrection, then it is first necessary for you to first be made conformable to my death. That is, you must first be willing to take up your cross and die to the righteousness of the sinful nature of the first born: the beast nature of the spirit of this world. The reason that you felt so comfortable in this coffin is because you see and know that this death is going to set you free from all of your captivity to this world. You have delighted in taking up your cross to crucify the world unto yourself, to separate your soul from all agreement and friendship with the wisdom and the spirits of this world. That which you are now delighting in is that which is making the spirit of this world uncomfortable and miserable. I am the resurrection and the life. I am the life of your destiny. I am your new identity. I am the spirit of the Son of God that fulfills that which God has predestined for all who he calls.
Philippians 3:7-11 “But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung so that I may win Christ, and be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the law (the law of sin and death), but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith so that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable to his death if by any means I might attain to the resurrection of the dead.”
Hebrews 4:12,13 “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division (separation) of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
John 17:17 “I pray not that you should take them out of the world, but that thou should keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through your truth: your word is truth.”
Sanctify: to separate unto God
Galatians 5:24 “And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and desires.”
Galatians 6:14 “But God forbid that I should glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.”
I then asked, “Lord, why does each one the spirits look exactly like me?” The Lord said, “Could you have ever believed that the darkness in you is the light unless it appeared in some form of light? This is how these unclean spirits have disguised themselves so that in the blindness of your ignorance you will see them as your friend, and not that which they truly are, your oppressive ruler. What better disguise could these spirits have than for them to appear as you; to deceive you into believing that their senses are your senses? The spirit of this world has deceived the children of this world into believing that their natural senses, their seeing, their hearing, their feelings, their emotions, their desires, their thinking, and their speaking comes from their own, and not from the world. Is it not written, “You have been bought with a price, and you are not your own?” The soul is always joined together in oneness to that spirit which it believes to be right and true. I have given you power over all unclean spirits: I did not give you power over your soul. I have given you all the freedom to choose between life or death, and, blessings or cursings. If death and cursing could be seen for what it truly is, then no man would ever choose them. But the darkness of death and cursing have disguised themselves to appear as light, that which appears right and good in the sight of men so that men will continue to allow their senses to rule over the thoughts of their minds and the desires of their heart.
Romans 6:16-17 “Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?”
Deuteronomy 30:19 “I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life so that both you and your seed may live.”
Romans 8:6 “For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.”
Remember, I did not create Adam with any of these unclean spirits in him. Adam and I walked daily together in fellowship and communion, and it was not until he chose to obey Satan’s lies that the spirit of this world found it’s entrance into them to bring their heart and mind into captivity, to serve him through their senses of sin and death. Was Adam or Eve ever fearful of me before they fell to Satan’s lies? No! We walked daily together in communion and fellowship, but when the spirit of this world came into them, they hid themselves and alienated themselves from my presence; and through fear, they separated themselves from my love. There is no fear in love. As it was then, so also is it now, that these wicked spirits continue to tempt my people and deceive them with their lies so that they might continue to do to them exactly what they did in Adam, alienate him from my fellowship and separate him from my love. It is not I that will alienate or separate myself from the deceived, but it is the deceived alienate and separate themselves from me.
Proverbs 16:3 “Commit your works unto the LORD (let him do it), and your thoughts shall be established.”
When Beelzebub comes, he comes looking like you so that he may deceive you into thinking and believing that his nature, the nature of pride, is also your nature. If you allow Beelzebub to deceive you with his lies, then you will walk in agreement with his lies and oneness with his nature, but think that it is your own. Every man walks in oneness with Beelzebub when he walks in the seeing, and the hearing, and the understanding, and the desires, and the feelings and emotions, and the thinking, and the speaking of pride. When Immani comes, he also comes looking like you so that he may deceive you into thinking and believing that his nature, the nature of fear, is also your nature. And so it is with the rest of these unclean spirits, always disguising themselves to appear as you so that you will allow for their senses to flow freely through you as though they were your own senses. If you see them as your own, then you will allow for them to come in and go out of your heart and mind as they please, without you offering up any resistance. The reprobate mind is the mind that offers no resistance to the spirit of this world because it is the mind that is void of judgment, not able to discern between the uncleanness of the righteousness of this world from the righteousness of God.
Titus 1:16 “They profess that they know God, but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.”
Obadiah 3 “The pride of your heart has deceived you…”
Colossians 1:21-22 “And you, that were sometimes alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now has he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight.”
Reconcile: to make an enemy to be a friend
James 4:4,5 “You adulterers and adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Do you think that the scripture says in vain, “The spirit (the spirit of this world) that dwells in us lusts to envy?”
Psalm 41:9-11 “Yea, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread has lifted up his heel against me. But you, O Lord, be merciful to me, and raise me up so that I may repay them. By this I know that you favor me because my enemy does not triumph over me.”
(This is not fleshy Judas, but spiritual Judas, the spirit of this world; Jesus never trusted Judas).
Revelation 12:10,11 “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives (the life of the spirit of this world that disguises itself to look just like you) unto the death.”
I then asked, “Lord, how could it be that I was so joyous in this coffin, but these spirits were so full of griping and complaining?” The Lord answered and said, “Again, the day that you started asking for me to destroy your wisdom and to behead you of your natural senses, that is the day that these unclean spirits began to grow uncomfortable. The coffin here represents the earthen vessel of your body that these seven unclean spirits have inhabited. I again I say to you that I am only going to raise up your soul from the grave, and that is why these unclean spirits are complaining and uncomfortable. You have found out that the more you decrease to this world, the more I will come and increase in you. The more I increase in you, the more I will come to commune and fellowship with you. You have found yourself comfortable in this coffin because you have also discovered that the more you die to the world, the more you are set free from that senses of this world and the nature of sin and death that has oppressed and tormented you. You have diligently sought to know me, and to know me is to know the truth because I am the truth. I am the truth that sanctifies you; that separates your soul from the spirit of this world. Only my truth is able to free you from your bondage to sin and death. I am opening your eyes so that you can see me in a way that the world cannot see me. I am the truth. I am the truth of your new identity. I am your new identity.
John 3:30 “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
Matthew 16:24,25 “Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any man will come after me, let him deny (disown; dispossess) himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.”
I Corinthians 15:36 “You fool, that which you sow is not made alive except it die.”
Romans 8:2 “The law of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death.”
John 8:31,32 “If you continue in my word then shall you be my disciples, and you shall now the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
I am the truth that separates you from the judgments that accuse and condemn others. I am the truth that separates you from the fears that tormented you your entire life. I am the truth that sets you free from the pride that led you to resist having any relationship with your heavenly Father. I am the truth that sets you free from all the unbelief and doubts that would not allow for you to receive anything from God. I am the truth that sets you free from the dread that always forecasts that the worst case scenario is that which will surely come to pass. I am the truth that sets you free from all the confusion of double-mindedness. I am the truth that sets you free from all of the lies that have alienated you from having fellowship with God and separated you from his love. I am, the wisdom of God that sets you free from the desires of the wisdom of this world. I am the wisdom of God that opens your eyes to see as God sees. I am the resurrection and life; the life that lives and moves in the seeing, the hearing, the passions, the desires, the emotions, the thinking, and the speaking as my heavenly Father does. I came into this world to give you life, and to give it to you abundantly, but you cannot have two masters. You will either love the one and hate the other. You must die to one so that you can live to the other, whether it be life or death, and blessings or cursing.
Psalm 51-5-12 “Behold, I was shaped in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me. Behold, you desire the truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part you shall make me to know wisdom. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Make me to hear joy and gladness so that the bones which you have broken may rejoice. Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all of my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence; and do not take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation; and uphold me with your free spirit.
Psalm 51:6 “Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part you shall make me to know wisdom.”
John 3:5-7 “Jesus answered, “Truly, truly I say to you that except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said, “You must be born again.”
1 Corinthians 15:42-49 “So is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual. The first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second Man is the Lord from heaven. As was the man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; and as is the heavenly Man, so also are those who are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.
Shortly after the Lord gave this vision to me about the coffin, he then gave to me this vision. I saw myself waking up one morning and going into the bathroom. When I looked into the mirror, I was shocked that I did not see my own reflection in the mirror but instead the most gross looking creature I have ever seen. This creature could only be described as walking death; for it’s flesh appeared to be half rotten and extremely sickly, and at least 40% of it’s body was just skeleton bones. This creature shocked me so greatly that when I saw it, I jumped to the side of the mirror so that I would no longer have to see it. Then after a few moments, I looked back into the mirror to see if it was still there. This time, that hideous creature was gone, but there appeared another creature in my mirror that looked more monstrous and terrifying than the first one. This creature appeared with bear with some human features, and looked extremely ferocious and monstrous. It had red eyes, and there was blood and some kind of foam dripping down from it’s mouth, and it was looking straight at me. Again I jumped to the side of the mirror because this creature greatly terrified me. After a few moments, when I my heart quit racing, I again began to ease myself to where I could peek back into the mirror to see if it was still there. It was gone, but again, there was another creature, one that looked something like an extremely angry werewolf. It also had a combination of wolf and human features that made it looked really grotesque and terrifying. Again, it startled me so greatly that I again jumped to the side of the mirror.
I ended up looking and seeing, as you may have guessed, at a total of eight different grotesque and terrifying creatures that all had a mixture of human features mixed in with them. One was like a goat, another was similar to a wild hog, another was like a snake or lizard, another was similar to a lion, and the last, but not least, was this grotesque and hideous looking chicken. It was weird in that I never felt like I was hardly seeing any of these creatures for the first time because since I was a kid, I have see close variations of all these creatures in horror movies. These creatures have obviously appeared before in the dreams or imaginations of those who wrote those stories. When I awoke from that dream, even though I thought that I had a pretty good idea what these creatures were, I asked the Lord what they represented. The Lord revealed to me that the first being, that grotesque old human creature was the wisdom of this world, and the rest were what these seven unclean spirits, and what I saw was what they all actually look like. Then the Lord said, “Now do you know why they had disguised their appearances to look like you so that you could not see them for who and what they really are?”
Matthew 8:28 “And when Jesus arrived at the other side in the country of the Gadarenes, two men under the control of demons went to meet Him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce and savage that no one was able to pass that way.”
Sometimes when the Lord reveals such like things as this, I find it amusing where my own thoughts will then go to. Over the years, I have heard countless interviews on TV where people are talking about a family member, or a neighbor, or a friend that has just committed some kind of horrendous crime or that had committed suicide. And so many of these people will say, “I personally knew this man, and he was a good man. He could not have done this. I cannot see how it could even be possible for him to have done this.” Now I know. Now I know that you may know, that how that man presented himself on the outside, was not like the beast that was within him. There is no telling how the beast within is going to respond to trouble or adversity; and under the right circumstances, man is capable of doing some really bad things to one another, and to themselves because the senses of the beast are to kill, steal, and destroy. It is simply the nature of the beast, and that beast does that which it sees as the right thing to do. Without any doubt now, I now know that no man has any clue as to the depths of the wicked nature that is of the beast within; the nature of these seven unclean spirits. It is like when I asked the Lord to clearly define Stoimina for me, and he answered me by saying, “You cannot define Stoimina except by saying that he is defined by every evil word and wicked deed that has ever been committed by all of the men that have been born into this world. How would the beast respond to just everyday stress, or lusts, or adversity if there were no laws to help restrain it? Laws can only work within certain boundaries to restrain the nature of the beast; the very nature that Jesus came to set us free from.
Ecclesiastes 3:18 “I said in my heart, concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest to them, and that they might see, that they themselves are beasts.”
Jeremiah 17:9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it?”
Genesis 6:5 “The LORD saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time.”
Romans 7:18 “For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwells no good thing…”
Hebrews 2:2,3 “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by them that heard him.”
I Corinthians 4:5 “Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.”
Jesus said that a man’s enemies would be they of his own household. If he was talking about our natural family, then that would have made flesh and blood to be our enemy instead of powers and principalities, and rulers of darkness, and wicked spirits that dwell in the high places of our minds and the dark place of our heart. Who is my enemy, a man of flesh and blood that hates me, or the unclean spirit that may be within that me that desires to render hatred back to that man? With this vision that the Lord gave to me, I have no doubt that the only enemy I have is that which dwells in my own house, that which tries to inhabit the same body that my soul inhabits. But one stronger than my enemy has come, and has bound up my enemy and cast him out. Would it be possible for a man to crucify the world unto himself as long as he sees the world as friend, disguised as himself? Would it be possible for a man to the hate the world and make it his enemy unless he first sees the world as God sees the world, the sinful beast nature that works only to alienate and separate his heart from the God who created him and loves him?
Matthew 10:36 “And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household.”
Psalm 41:9 “Yea, my own familiar friend (the spirit of this world) in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.”
Psalm 143:3 “For the enemy has persecuted my soul; he has smitten my life down to the ground; he has made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.”
Psalm 38:18-20 “For I will declare my iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin. But my enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied. They also that render evil for good are my adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.”
Psalm 13:2 “How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?”
Psalm 43:2 “For you are the God of my strength. Why do you cast me off? Why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?”
Matthew 12:24-31 “But when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebub the prince of the demons.” And Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: and if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom stand? And if by Beelzebub I cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come to you. Or else how can one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house. He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathers not with me scatters abroad. Wherefore I say to you, “All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit shall not be forgiven men.”
Psalm 18:17 “He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.”
Psalm 107:1 “O give thanks to the LORD, for he is good and his mercy endures for ever. Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, who has redeemed him from the hand of the enemy.”
