Destined in God

Luke 2:25-35
25 And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and devout, waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. 27 So he came by the Spirit into the temple. And when the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the law, 28 he took Him up in his arms and blessed God and said:
29 “ Lord, now You are letting Your servant depart in peace,
According to Your word;
30 For my eyes have seen Your salvation
31 Which You have prepared before the face of all peoples,
32 A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles,
And the glory of Your people Israel.”

33 And Joseph and His mother marveled at those things which were spoken of Him. 34 Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, “Behold, this Child is destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against 35 (yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul also), that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

Verse 34 here says that Jesus was destined for the fall of many in Israel. This may sound contradictory, to most Christian doctrine, when this is put into the context of the church falling away, because many people have come to believe that it is the Antichrist and false prophet that are the ones causing people to fall.

Why are the two witnesses given so much authority? The two witnesses are fore-mostly the Spirit of Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, but male and female, as the Spirit of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit have never died. The Spirit of Jesus Christ was yielded up to God, when the body of Christ died, and it is impossible for His Spirit, or the Holy Spirit to die; knowing again, that Jesus has His own Spirit, though He is also one with the Holy Spirit. The two witnesses are male and female, as the testimony of Jesus Christ is given from the Spirit of Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, as Jesus is as the Bride of the Father, being a temple and or vessel for His Holy Spirit. Many people did think that Peter and Paul were possibly the two witnesses, but this interpretation lacks in every area. Firstly, Revelation was written after they died, and secondly they died at different times. Thirdly, even though Paul and Peter agreed for Paul to go to the Gentiles, and for Peter to go to the Jews, if in Christ there is no longer Gentile or Jew, then why would Paul and Peter be the two witnesses? The representation that comes through seeing the two witnesses, as being one unto the Gentiles, and one unto the Jews, can only be correct, in the context of knowing what it means to have male and female be the two witnesses through the testimony of Jesus Christ. As the Spirit of Jesus Christ is on the Father's right hand, and the Holy Spirit is on His left hand, symbolized by the two cherubs encompassing His throne. Knowing the two witnesses as male and female, gives the only interpretation for one of the witnesses to be to the Gentiles, and the other to the Jews. Because the symbol of what is Jewish, is the Law, and for those who are born again, the Law is written on them inwardly. And the symbol of what is of the Gentiles, is of what is outward, as the Gentiles crucified Christ’s body. There could be question, as to why the symbolism of what is outward, isn't in the context of the flesh being sinful. But first, there again must be the right context, because Adam and Eve's flesh was not sinful, until after they fall; and then even after they fell, their insides were sinful as well. Therefore, through knowing that the two witnesses are male and female, and in knowing that God is both, and that humans being male and female were created in His image, we can know that the gospel from the two witnesses has the foundation of reconciling both the insides and the outsides of people, unto God. And in this way, the two witnesses are properly interpreted, both in the context of male and female, and of Gentile and Jew. This is because through Christ, there is oneness, bringing the insides and outsides to be in the oneness of God. So what happens, that makes it so that there is no longer male, female, Gentile, or Jew? The oneness takes away the division. However, through the oneness, the testimonies still remain, as they are fulfilled, not removed. In this, we have the meaning of what it says in Zechariah, when it says that the two witnesses are always before God. Adam and Eve were not always physically before God. They were children, and the Bible shows that God 'visited' them. The angels are always spiritually before God, and the Bible also shows this, as it speaks about Gabriel, and the angels that behold children. The angels are created in God's likeness, where there is the testimony of both of what is male and female, as they are one. The angels do go on assignments, as the Bible shows, so not every angel is always physically before God. But just as the earth is always before the Sun, even though there is night time, so are the angels, and even humans, able to always be before God, spiritually. Before Adam and Eve fell, they were un-corrupted, though they were corruptible, and they had the Holy Spirit living in them. The angels who have not fallen, are not yet incorruptible, but they are still un-corrupted, and therefore they also have the Breath of the LORD in them, as the Bible says that God created all of the host of heaven by the Breath of His mouth. The analogy, in which the earth is always before the Sun, even though there is night time, resembles the spiritual relationship that God has with those who are saved in Him, and with the angels who have not fallen. With those who are saved in Him, they are overcoming darkness, and as darkness represents knowledge not yet revealed, there is a day to day relationship with God, by which He gives light. The day time is a symbol, for those who are saved in Him, of being wholly in Him. The night time is a symbol of having to overcome darkness. The moon and the stars do represent the angels, both as God has made His power known through the ones who fell, and as the angels who have not fallen are ministering spirits, sent to the humans who are saved in Him. In these things, there is also testimony of the angels who have not fallen, learning through what God is doing with His saved, and in this way, His angels (the ones who have not fallen) are protected, preserved, and instilled with more and more of God. Because His angels do not overcome darkness, as if they themselves have darkness in them. The Bible and the Book of Enoch, show how the fallen angels mingled their seed with humans, so the angels do have sexes, though they are not married presently.

The oneness gives the fulfillment of what is male and female. And through the oneness, neither is taken away. Just as Christ has a bride, and is Himself also as the Bride of the Father, being a vessel for His Holy Spirit. This is like the pillar, and the temple. The temple and the pillar are one, and are both male and female. The temple encompasses the pillar, which shows the temple to be female through symbol. But just as the temple is above the pillar, whether in authority or the architecture, the temple is also male. In this same way, the angels are servants, and thus female, in the context of authority; but at the same time, as they have authority in themselves, though they are servants, they are also male. The angels that have not fallen, who also have their home in heaven, are not yet married, as they won't be until after the marriage of the Lamb.

The two witnesses, in a context, are one a king, and another a priest; just as Jehu and Elisha. Why can't the fallen angels procreate? And why is it that no angel is called female presently? Because of the same reason, that God gives His severity, as spoken of by Jesus, and Paul. This being in the testimony of what it means to be a priest and king. A king represents God or himself to men. A priest represents men to God. In this way, no angel presently FULLY has within THEMSELVES the nature of what is female. This is the same context that Paul spoke about, regarding a man being able to take his virgin, if she is past the age of flowering. The angels who have not fallen, also not yet having incorruption, have not yet fully flowered. Only the angels who have not fallen, still have within themselves, the female nature, though they have not fully flowered. And it is the fallen angels, who can not manifest the female nature, except through false light, as they also do not submit. And the false light, is not just a counterfeit of God, it is also a counterfeit, in the realm of the demons themselves, in the context of having the female nature, because that is what was given up, when they fell. In this way, the fallen angels, are as menstrual rags. And only as through remembering who they were before they fell, as that talent and person is still in God, can they see that female nature, and when they do, it is their male nature that does not submit to God, regardless of what it seeks. The talents of the fallen angels, still exist in God, just as the talents of the unprofitable human servants will be taken away, as the parable says that Jesus cut the unprofitable servant in two. This meaning that the soul was double, and that God took the talent, but left the person destroyed, and it goes into perdition. The angels can not have children before they are incorruptible, because having the knowledge of good and evil, and having tasted of incorruption, if they procreate with the knowledge of good and evil, without partaking of incorruption, they will be sowing in doubleness and fall away; as good and evil would not be encompassed by incorruption. Adam and Eve were able to still be saved and procreate after having fallen, because they did not have the knowledge of good and evil before they fell. This preserved them, making it so that their knowledge of evil would not procreate above their knowledge of good, except through ignorance. It is the sin of creating what is evil, when there is no longer ignorance, which is willfully sinning with the knowledge of the truth, and thus falling away beyond repentance. After the Great White Throne Judgment, in which all of the fallen will be cast into the lake of fire, the fallen will submit, but the fallen will be forever completely separated from the talents, and here is where the analogy of imploding, and of a black hole comes in, as they can not manifest to encompass, as in the symbol of what is female, which is a testimony of wholeness and or security; and the manifestations of being male are forever without consummation. And after the angels who have not fallen are incorruptible, then they will have within themselves the mature natures of male and female, and in oneness. And this is what we are to run our race for, because in falling away, there is only the seeds, or works, or tares, of darkness to be sown; in which there is no submission, only the lording of authority; and in which there is no complete oneness, only the fertilization of whatever seed the more powerful being possesses, as the being who is more powerful, is the one who conceives, or bears fruit, by which it lords authority according to the amount of power it has. Through entering in, and having their soul established on earth as it is in heaven, the saved flower spiritually. And all shall have flowered spiritually and physically at the new heavens and earth.

The two witnesses have so much authority, because of the importance of their message. As it is the everlasting pleasure and life of eternal monogamous marriage, which is testified of through the two witnesses, which is the fullness of Jesus and the Holy Spirit being His two witnesses, and of Jesus being as the Bride of the Father, being a vessel for His Holy Spirit.

Why won't all individuals just be male and female themselves, without having eternal monogamous marriage with another created being? Because of the purpose of oneness, and of the depths of what it means to have relationship. The purpose of oneness is not found in being an individual, and not married. Because the intimate depths of that relationship would not be shared with any other created being, and thus there would be no fruit. And this would be the same regarding an individual being only married to Jesus, and not to another created being, because then Jesus as the Bridegroom would not have any fruit if the oneness and intimate relationship was not shared with another created being. And there isn’t the fruit of that oneness and intimate depth of relationship with brotherly love. The intimate depths will be shared between created beings as they are monogamously married in heaven after the marriage of the Lamb, where the oneness and intimate depth is always present, whether in the plural or singular. The created beings who are eternally monogamously married share a name that no one else knows, but they themselves, and Jesus and God, always have and share the fruit of it, and every couple shall have brotherly love with everyone else, under Jesus and God.
