Malachi 3: 1
There are two messengers here: one prepares the way for the bringer of the covenant and One is a bringer of the covenant. There is the messenger of the bridge and the messenger of the covenant itself - both of them are messengers.
Malachi 4:4-5
“Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.”
Moses was a law giver of the house of Levi to the church of the Old testament. The great and dreadful day of the Lord isn't ordinary. This day is both great and dreadful. It is a prophecy of a season in the end or at the end. The purpose of Elijah’s spirit is the giving of the covenant. Elijah prepares the way of the Lord. You can see the spirit of Elijah which is the spirit of the Lord God. There was one Elijah in the season of Jesus who prepared the way, and a higher portion of Elijah who gives the covenant.
“And the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple…” (Mal 3:1). Jesus is the Lord. He is the Lord God. “Blessed is He who cometh in the name of the Lord...” Jesus didn't just come in the name of the Lord God, He is the Lord God. So, John the Baptist was not the Lord but he came in the name of the Lord God. Elijah of the Old Testament was a figure, a man with a name that propagated a dimension of that power. We saw more of the spectacular with him but not that he did not know God’s law. Elijah was a turner to the covenant while Moses was the giver of the covenant. Why John the Baptist was higher than Elijah the prophet was that John prepared and turned people for a higher covenant giver. So, John the Baptist was a prophet of the highest for the Son of the Highest.
Jesus was not a small lord but the Lord God. The second man wasn't created but was made man. The Lord from heaven became the second man. The first man was made here; he is of the earth, earthy. The second man is the man from heaven (1Cor. 15:47). The second man is the Lord from heaven. The Lord from heaven is not the second man but the Lord, while He came from heaven to earth became the second man. So, both of them are men. The difference is that the first man was ‘of’ the earth, earthy and the second man wasn’t of the earth, earthy; He was the Lord from heaven. The second man came as the last Adam. After Him, there was no Adam again. So, the generation of the Adamic race ceased. Jesus stopped Adam’s breed and started the course of the new man.
(Isaiah 53:1 - 12) Jesus did everything from start to finish - from sins to reconciliation, and healing of transgression. He finished transgression, paid for it. He went all the way. Transgressors are those who break laws. The core nature of a transgressor is the nature of a dog and a swine. After you show them precious things, they turn and rend you. They turn after they have been helped. The sin of a transgressor is the plague of the adversary. It is Satan's core, his nature.
Sinning is different from transgressing. A transgressor is a doer of both sin and iniquity - it is he who has no regard. When he wants to turn, he turns even after you show him everything - all the secrets. A transgressor cannot be separated from his vomit. It's not easy to heal a sworn dog (of oath) until God heals that nature. Without Jesus going to hell to make intercession to break that power of hell and death, a transgressor will end up doing sin and iniquity; he will turn. A transgressor will not submit his will totally to be healed.
Turning means changing. We turn to sin. Turning is the end of iniquity and also righteousness. Turning has to be healed. A transgressor makes us up his mind to break laws; he refuses to keep anymore. So, Satan likes to buy our turning all the time. When he is tempting you, he wants to have room (in your soul). Satan was a transgressor - he created it. He was the first to have turned. Some people will turn and never feel anything they have left behind. A transgressor is bound within his wall alone. He doesn't see anybody but himself. He's a lover of himself. Self is a wicked thing.
Heresy is that which starts with a pointer of denial. When someone starts teaching dangerous things that have to do with denying the Lord, that's damnable. 2 Peter 2: 1-10 speaks of these things. Denying the Lord is doing things that will not allow the manifestation of God's life. Some people are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries; they can speak to anybody without fear. Such people will always end up leaving the way. It's a stain when someone is self-willed.
Satan did not leave heaven the day he turned. He kept dividing the seraphim church by speaking evil of God. Seraphims were persecuted. Some turned and some remained; they are beings like men - heavenly beings. Many of them suffered and endured things in that congregation. I perceive that God must have comforted them after some left by sending chrubims to them. Satan caused trouble in the heavens. Ministers serving under pastors should align properly and stay within the boundaries of the teachings in the church/ministry. The nature of a transgressor cannot see anything outside himself. He is not willing to submit his guard. What Jesus was tried with was His will, till He uttered "not my will, but yours be done" (Luke 22:42).
The last Adam was made a quickening spirit. He is not the second Adam; He is the second man i.e the second man was an Adam. He was not a quickening spirit as an Adam, He was just an Adam and grew until he became a quickening spirit.
(John 1: 12) For the word to be made flesh here means the word was reduced; that was why He could dwell among us. The word dwelled among us and we were able to behold His glory. It is not the glory of the only begotten Son, but ‘as’ of the glory of the only begotten Son (of the Father). (John 1:14). That glory was the glory of Adam. What Jesus was carrying around was Adam's glory because He was the last Adam. He was still showing the Adamic generation. That's why the glory of the Son of God could not rest on Him.
(Gen 5:1) Adam was made in a day; it means that Adam was made in the fabric of everlasting passion. The spiritual tissue used in constructing him is an everlasting material. Everlasting means a type of word with an intent of God. He was made in a day, not in years, which means he was made in the Holy of Holies. He was constituted with the life of the highest. It was a high life. Adam became a living soul; he was raised among the living. He had human everlasting life. Living beings sprout in a day.
This man was made in the likeness of God. “In the likeness of God made He Him...(Gen 1:27). The meaning of the Hebrew word 'Adam' is 'red’. Red is earth. Red means everlasting/living/full life. God is like a sardine stone. Jesus' garment was one dipped in blood, meaning he had a full life. The word Adam means ‘the red of earth’; in other words, the life of earth. Adama means son of the red of earth, meaning he was the son of the god of earth. He was actually a god on the earth.
This was what Esau denied. He was born red; he was close to blood. God gave Esau the sardine nature. God hates Esau because he was a profane fellow. Everything in Esau's body showed inheritance, born with the gene of inheritance. He was blessed, tattooed with inheritance but he rejected everything God gave Him. God said to me, “who Esau was, I made him know.” So, Esau knew who he was.
But he was tempted with a red pottage. Satan created another red. Satan did not want him to come into his inheritance. So, went through Jacob to make Esau fall. “Supplanter’ means a trickster - he was a tempter. But God liked Jacob even though he was a supplanter. But when he took the inheritance, God watched him as he became one with the inheritance. Satan offered Esau another promise/life so that he would give up his birthright. His birthright was linked to a full promise. The color of God's promise is a red color.
The Lord from heaven became a man, which means he became red. He became earth. The word
"Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created." Genesis 5:2. ‘He’ is two people - male and female. Inside ‘he’ is ‘them’. Adam means male and female; hence the use of 'he them'.
He blessed them and called them ‘Adam’, meaning both of them are red earth; they are both sons of the red earth. Adam and Eve were gods. Eve is actually an Adam, even though Adam called her Eve. But she's the female Adam, equally like him but in another version. Therefore, if a man desires a man, they are violating the law of the beginning. It’s an attack on the image and likeness of God. Two males are not Adam; it would take a male and female to create Adam.
"And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:" (Genesis 5:3) This is the book of Adam. The last Adam in the person of Jesus is visiting. The people that are being made after need to graduate into an adam. Adam couldn't give birth to an adam. It is God who makes Adams. The presence of the red is the presence of light - the soil.
There are spiritual/soulish materials God put together to frame the spirit and build the soul. The spirit and the soul were created in one day. Adam’s soul and spirit were living - of the everlasting order. When God breathed into his body, the function he started behaving was called a ‘living soul program’. We don't name you after the spirit but your fruit - your fruit is what the soul shows on the body. Fruits are the expression of life from the inner man, to the inward man then the outward man. A fruit is a sign of inheritance.
Adam was made in the image and likeness of God. What made him look like God was the name He called him - Adam. The life He deposited inside him made him an Adam. He was made with the highest life called God's image and God’s likeness (on the earth dimension). He was a God-kind; he had the rule over the earth. The red thing gave him the ability to rule. That name Adam means the wearer of earthly control. He had power over the earth. God won't just give anyone the materials of dominion; He would have to consult the book of Adam. They did not talk about Adam’s exploits because it was not needed; but Enoch and other men were not like Adam.
No woman had also grown to be like Eve, our mother. It is a terrible honor to be the first rib to be clothed with flesh. She was severed from a man, made a woman and brought to Adam. He said she was flesh of his flesh and bone of his bone. Eve was also red but didn't have so much of red earth. The head had more. God gave Adam an edge over the woman so she could see her husband and revere him. Adam had more days than Eve, that is, Adam had more light more than Eve. Adam came first, and the woman came later.
(1Tim 2:14) Adam was not deceived but Eve was deceived. She did not commit a complete transgression. Adam did not have to eat the fruit even after Eve ate it - Adam only welcomed the deception. Eve did not have enough earth. Earth is not flesh- it is invisible/spiritual. It can yield to God. Adam left earth. Men were no longer yielding to Adam. Cain fell from becoming earth; he fell into flesh. Abel attained some earth but was killed. But later, God opened a book through Adam again to start a generation of Adam and of earth. God began to build the earth capacity. That book means how to generate ‘them’, that is, how to raise Adams. Through Seth, he succeeded in raising sons of God. Another word for Adam means ‘Son of God of the earth.” Sonship with God is the adama of the earth.
What is earth? It’s a God-kind property. Earth isn’t just our plane - earth means red. God gave earth his red. You can’t get God’s earth; you have to go back to the book of Adams. When declaring Adam’s generation, it is preaching. It’s the declaration of the generation of Adam’s book - how Adam generated. “I will declare my name among the brethren…”
Job was another kind of earth. Seth and Noah are earth; it is not every man that is earth. Many men are not earth; they are dust (low-grade earth). Many don't have nutrients yet. When God begins to bless the earth, He is giving it life. God told Israel to work for six years and rest in the seventh year so that the land would yield double for the seventh year. You will eat of the sixth and seventh. He blessed the land in the sixth year for the seventh. God can bless the earth, put life in the dust and make it a complete earth. Many men have lost their earth. It would take sons of God to heal the earth. A cursed earth is an earth that can’t yield.
Isaiah 61:1-4
“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.”
The book of Isaiah 61 is to heal the earth. The duty of the trees of righteousness is to heal the desolation of many generations. Desolation is the earth that has been broken down from the generations of Adam. God sent ministers to heal the desolation. Till this time, man is no longer complete earth but dust. It will take ministers of God to take off the old waste and raise up the former desolations, repair the waste cities. Desolation of many generations are men that have been eaten up completely. The best and beauty of men these days is as a flower and as grass.
“And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you” (Joel 2:25). Restoration is to return what the locust, caterpillars and others had eaten. Each of the stages of the metamorphosis of the locust is feeding on something. It's from one stage of worms to another, until an adult formation of a creature that eats. It means these worms fed on man till it became a locust that could fly. That is the dragon, who at first crawled on his belly. Man was reduced to the ground, but God can restore to the earth all he had lost, even seven times more than before.
God is restoring us to become an Eden being. God is locking us up in Eden. Eden does not mean you’ll be in a physical garden. The garden is the realm of God, the rest of God. The realm where the tree of life is. Everlasting life is an Edenic life. Those who you find in Eden are not ordinary beings, they are men with a different life of God, everlasting life. God is working men back to the higher paradisiacal life.
Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel were a type of earth. David was a type of earth. Moses was earth and Elijah was earth but they were not all as red as Adam. They are earth in their grades. The amount of good earth is the amount of status one you gain with God.
God had been trying to restore good earth until finally, when the laws of Moses were expiring, He brought back Adam. He generated Adam by raising red. This happened through John the Baptist, and then Jesus. Jesus was going to be the last Adam. God closed an Adam book and opened another Adam book. God is going to raise the red of heaven like Him in the heavenly world-to-come order. The red colour is the power of rule - it is a rod of rule The red dragon is false earth. The scarlet-coloured beast is false earth, Satan gave him that scarlet nature. He had power over nations because of red.
