  • All Is Vanity?

    All Is Vanity?

    Ecc 1:2  Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. 

    Vanity from the Hebrew;

    H1892 הֲבֵל    הֶבֶל From H1891; emptiness or vanity; figuratively something transitory and unsatisfactory; often used as an adverb: – altogether, vain, vanity. H1891 הָבַל A primitive root; to be vain in act, word, or expectation; specifically to lead astray: – be (become, make) vain.

    The earth being unsatisfactory, vain, and designed to lead astray.

    The design according to God is in that creation is all “good” as mentioned many times in Genesis. We can assume that these negative objectives are related to vanity that is emulating from the one’s spirit.

    Ecc 1:3-4  What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun? One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever. 

    The earth abideth for ever?

    Isaiah 65:17, 22, Rev 21:1 and 2Peter 3:13, states there will be a new earth and heavens.

    2Peter 3:13  Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

    Righteousness dwells from within. Righteousness, the new heavens and new earth are spiritually within the soul and you have that eternal promise, by way of your own regeneration or renewing of ones self, establishing a personal relationship with our Lord and God.

    Ecc 1:8  All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. 

    Ecc 1:9  The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 

    There is nothing new under the sun meaning that all experiences are the same. A rotation of life in an eternal environment.

    What changes are in the evolution of the world your participating in as well as the other souls involved in those experiences.

    Note; If a soul chooses to believe in only one flesh life, scriptures will not align with understanding eternity and eternal life.

    Ecc 1:10  Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. 

    Ecc 1:11  There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after. 

    Ecc 1:11 is an interesting verse. This verse shows how God meticulously knows exactly what memory you are to retain from life to life for eternity! This allows the soul to freewill choose what current awareness of life to live without any interference from the past.

    How much deeper can the love of God be when His work is so precise for all of creation for an eternity!

    Ecc 1:13  And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. 

    Ecc 1:14  I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. 

    Taking a look at vexation of spirit from the Hebrew;

    H7469 רְעוּת Probably from H7462; a feeding upon, that is, grasping after: – vexation. H7462 רָעָה A primitive root; to tend a flock, that is, pasture it; intransitively to graze (literally or figuratively); generally to rule; by extension to associate with (as a friend).

    Since you “can’t take it with you”, flesh things, you can grow from your spiritual self through the world which is the makeup of your existence. Living life through experiences for the growth through decisions and from the balance of goodness and its opposites.

    Experiences only serve the purpose of the experience from the choice of how a soul wishes to live.

    Ecc 1:15  That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered.

    What is crooked and cannot be made straight? The physical life in the flesh. 

    Ecc 1:16  I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge. 

    Ecc 1:17  And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit. 

    Rom 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 

    (See Also; Psalms 51:10, Rom 12:2, Eph 4:23, 1Peter 3:21, Heb 6:6)

    Titus 3:5  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; 

    2Co 5:17  Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

    1John 4:4  Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 

    All created spirits are of God. Because he is greater than he that is in the world. It is safe to assume that all souls have that inheritance, grace, and eternal salvation according to the Word in accordance to each individual living their from their “own” through our Lord, within their own time in their eternity.

    What makes all these scriptures a matter of fact is the takeaway on life. For a soul to simply realizing that love is life. Your neighbor is as much a part of One as you are in any situation that is seen through the eyes.

    God never changes and neither should you.

    1John 4:5-6  They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. 

    “They” will have their experiences that promote life and growth within their own eternity in their own eternal “time”.

    John 15:18  If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. 

    The definition of hate from the Greek;

    G3404 μισέω From a primary word μῖσος misos (hatred); to detest (especially to persecute); by extension to love less.

    Hate, detest, love less. Big difference between hate and love less. Its all in your definition and not what you think the world wants you to believe.

    If its from the world, or another soul, and not from your own self. Does it serve your own heart felt beliefs?

    Do you know what God’s definition of hate is?

    Ecc 1:18  For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow. 

    Verse 18 makes so much sense because the wisdom and knowledge that is gained is not wisdom and knowledge of the world, but taping into the Word which is in you that being exemplified through the flesh.

    To regenerate and live from your true spiritual self on this earth. Why the sorrow? A regeneration leads to the sorrows in different ways.

    Contributing regenerated ways that oppose the world;

    * A greater state of alignment to your spiritual existence and evolution.

    * A heightened state of well being and inner peace.

    * An elevated state of being transending from a lower energy experiencing positive personal growth.

    Sorrow is in the lack of connection to the world even though a greater understanding is practiced. A sense of alienation, but the sorrow is amidst peace, love, goodness, and understanding.

    The realization of reality from your true spirit which is conflicting to the teachings of the world requiring regeneration or a renewing of the mind.

    1Co 2:16  For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

  • Literal Or Spiritual?

    Literal Or Spiritual?

    The Bible-Word serves as a guide to learn how to overcome the world that is birthed into a flesh body. The Word serves all created souls for eternity from any consciousness. The Word is uniquely written in that it has individualized understanding for each and every soul in eternal existence.

    From the simplest of literal understandings to the depths of spiritual understanding. For each individual, the Word serves the flesh from the beginnings of a souls walk with God, to the extreme spiritual meanings that lead to a greater understanding through obedience-love for life and creation.

    1Kings 20:28 is an example showing the differences between understanding from the literal flesh perspective, and the understanding from the spiritual perspective.

    1Kings 20:28 

    And there came a man of God, and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the LORD, Because the Syrians have said, The LORD is God of the hills, but he is not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

    When God created his creation, all was good. Why would he state he is not the God of the valleys? (See Also; Gen 1:4, 1:10, 1:18, 1:21 1:25, 1:31)

    Hills from the Hebrew;

    H2022 הַר A shortened form of H2042; a mountain or range of hills (sometimes used figuratively). H2042 הָרָר From an unused root meaning to loom up; a mountain.

    Valleys from the Hebrew;

    H6010 עֵמֶק From H6009; a vale (that is, broad depression).: – dale, vale, valley [often used as a part of proper names]. See also H1025. H6009 עָמַק A primitive root; to be (causatively make) deep (literally or figuratively): depth, be profound.

    From the Hebrew definition, the literal understanding, is a hill and a valley. The hill and valley being a representation. To “loom up” means to become visible by rising up from a point or source. To “make deep” as a valley, is the opposite of a mountain or range of hills and a direction towards depth.

    Romans being a different example but the same principle.

    Rom 10:6-7  But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) 

    God is the creator of all good. The depth, to cause to make deep as a valley would be in the progression in your relationship with God. Living a life progressing upward living by way of goodness-love.

    The valley representing a soul that in an opposing manner of desired negativities. The point being is in that a soul should working towards a deeper understanding of love to “loom up” the hill and not going into a progression or entertain a negative path as in a valley or a progress that is going down.

  • In Depth Look At Judgement

    In Depth Look At Judgement

    Defining Judgement

    Defining judgement may help to understand how judgement is taken into consideration looking at the related scriptures.

    Judgement is nothing more then making decisions in determining good or bad, right or wrong for a particular thought or action.

    Judgement does not necessarily lead to a specific action or choice of alternatives.

    Judgement often applies a degree of authority, expertise, or a formal process, whereas
    “decision” is a more general term for making a choice.

    As an individual, the focus on self-judgement is forming an opinion, evaluation, or assessment after considering the information. A personal decision in determining value, facts, or merit.

    Taking the above information and apply it to Deu 32:4.

    Deu 32:4 

    He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. 

    ALL HIS WAYS are judgement. That would also mean your ways are your judgement because you are of God.

    Since all ways of God are judgement, look at judgement as being a path that you believe to be correct in accordance to your heart because you are one of his ways.

    1Co 5:3 

    For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, 

    Self Judgement

    2Co 13:5 

    Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? 

    Reprobates in the Greek;

    G96 ἀδόκιμος From G1 (as a negative particle) and G1384; unapproved, that is, rejected; by implication worthless (literally or morally) G1384 δόκιμος From G1380; properly acceptable (current after assayal), that is, approved.

    1Co 11:31 

    For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 

    (See Also; 1Co 11:28, Gal 6:4)

    Rom 14:13

    Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way. 

    Self judgement is a built in mechanism to keep from making errors and is a matter of choice, to freely choose. Your main decision is either the path on the left, or the path on the right.

    The worldly way would be to blame someone else in a matter other than one’s own self. To some, Satan is the main blame. The problem with that you are your own satan. You alone are responsible for your own thoughts and actions. Your not going to do something you don’t love. 

    Than ask yourself is this my true passion? If not, why are you not following your true passion?

    If you don’t love it, why are you doing it?

    Excuses from within yourself. How far will that fly when your only fooling yourself. 

    How do excuses serve your purpose?

    If your having to justify something from your sub-conscience, it means your not in alignment with your true self. An excuse to do something you really don’t want to do for whatever reason or reasons. 

    Judging Others

    Mat 7:1-2  Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 

    Rom 14:10  But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

    James 4:11  Speak not evil one of another, brethren. He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. 

    Rom 2:1  Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. 

    Rom 14:4  Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand. 

    The statement “God is able to make him stand”, means judgement is a lack of faith and trust in God.

    God and Jesus Judge?

    Rom 2:3  And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? 

    But wait!

    John 5:22  For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 

    John 12:47  And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 

    All judgement falls unto the son? We see in the same book of John, Jesus himself states he does not judge.

    John 8:15  Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. 

    Luke 12:14  And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you? 

    Man made Jesus a judge.

  • Heaven And Heavens?

    Heaven And Heavens?

    Gen 1:1 

    In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 

    Gen 1:1 states that God created the heaven and the earth. The focus is on heaven which is singular speaking. Only one heaven.

    The reference to the singular heaven is mentioned again in Genesis verses 1:8, 1:15, 1:17)

    The Old Testament Hebrew definition of heaven is;

    H8064 שָׁמֶה    שָׁמַיִם The second form being dual of an unused singular; from an unused root meaning to be lofty; the sky (as aloft; the dual perhaps alluding to the visible arch in which the clouds move, as well as to the higher ether where the celestial bodies revolve).

    It was not until Genesis 1:26 that God said “let us make man in our image, after our likeness.”

    Then in Genesis 2:1 the word heaven now becomes plural after the creation of man on the earth.

    Gen 2:1 

    Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 

    Prior to creation there was only one heaven. After Genesis 2:1, we now see there are multiple heavens.

    Luke 12:31 

    But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you. 

    Luke 17:21 

    Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. 

    1Kings 8:27 

    But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded? 

    (See Also; 2Ch 6:18) 

    Acts 7:49 

    Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest? 

    (See Also; Isa 66:1, Acts 17:24)

    God references a singular heaven, his self. God is asking if humankind is dwelling in the soul.

    Deu 10:14 

    Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the LORD’S thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is. 

    Psalms 148:4 

    Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

    (See Also; 1Kings 8:27, 2Ch 2:6, 6:18)

    Living waters are the representation of spiritual life and blessings.

    John 7:38 

    He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. 

    (See Also; John 4:10, Jer 2:13, 17:13)

    So how much heaven, the kingdom of God, is within you? Where is God’s place of rest?

  • Parable Of The Drunk Driver

    Parable Of The Drunk Driver

    You’re finally old enough to drive. You’re now accountable for all your actions including mistakes, errors in judgement, lack of knowledge, and courtesies. Of course, some respect is duly noted.
    The Drivers Ed book certainly helped to understand the rules, regulations, and courtesies; but a mind is in the position to do whatever action is necessary to see to an end, good or bad and interpret the book any ol’ way he wants!
    Then you have the drunk driver. He means well but has no regard for anyone including himself.
    He is ok with it because he made it “home”.
    The act is often repeated until a major event takes place. Why is it that it takes these events for a soul to have a “come to Jesus” meeting?

  • Parable Of The Electronic World

    Parable Of The Electronic World

    The electronic world is likened to the spiritual world. The spiritual world, no physical matter exists but a spiritual body exists to fulfill what consciousness chooses to execute. Life is from consciousness but there is no duality.

    The flesh life is complicated enough prior to the electronic world. Now all knowledge-information can establish a “reality” through your senses. Now that we have two worlds, a world we physically live in now integrating itself with the electronic world.

    Awareness in life now has duality in meticulously integrated both worlds into your current awareness, the same way the mind-brain has been battling against your created spiritual spirit-soul in its duality. We now balance these two worlds in the same manner. Is it not in the same manner of balancing evil and goodness in your life? Think of the things you do, say, or see online that you wouldn’t “do in reality”.

    Isn’t it bad enough to have that duality from the mind-brain-ego battling against your created spiritual self, now to compound the battle with the electronic world, having to battle that through the flesh as well? Is life being confounded even more by living life on a scale that is beyond necessity, understanding, or both? Now we have dualities on two fronts.

    The overwhelming amount of information can be confusion to the mind. What is truth, what is a lie? Who is the author of this confusion? The mind thinks it’s in control but yet another attack comes by way of ads and suggestions. Information that is based upon who you are or what “they” want you to be…..Who are “they”?

    Their goal is control by strategizing your life’s path that suggest they know who you are more then you know yourself…..They plan out your next move even though you detest it’s presence at every turn! Where does ego fit into this attack?
    What you take in, how much you take in, what are your priorities. All manipulations to determine your truths and realities that you may or may not manifest into the physical world.
    Who is really in control?

  • Parable Of The Computer

    Parable Of The Computer

    Creation is likened to a computer.

    Our body-brain is our hard drive, (stored information), the monitor, (visions from thought), and keyboard, (implementing actions), now able to complete a task.

    Software is our consciousness installed on our own individual hard drive, (pre-programmed created soul), but able to adapt to one’s own personal individual needs.
    The program that runs the computer is the consciousness of God; the writer-creator of the operational program installed on the hard drive.
    So now;
    If one of these components is missing will the computer work?
    If a virus is on the hard drive, how well does the computer work?
    Did the virus come from the programmer?

    When the computer is running like it was just taken out of the box, and your freely enjoying your wants, where is there any indication of any sort of separation between any of the components?
    Think about this. The communication between computer and computer “connections” (no separation), either known or unknown!
    If you understand this, you understand how God works.

  • Parable Of The Rolls Royce

    Parable Of The Rolls Royce

    Creation is liken to the building of a Rolls Royce.
    The Rolls Royce Company (creator) builds each automobile (spirit) with pride and perfection knowing it will last a lifetime.
    The buyer (soul) who purchased the automobile did not design or build the perfected work of art, but purchased it to freely use any way he chooses. He was also able to customize it as he chose to suit his own personal needs. (spirit-soul)
    Of course the Company takes pride in this new relationship and keeps in touch with this new relationship. The new owner and new automobile have just become one in a new life!
    But after some time, the automobile wears down and after countless miles the engine develops internal problems. The Rolls still runs but rough, and now the body has weathered and is also in dire need of attention.
    So years past, then one day after having to walk past at this former work of perfection, seemingly near death, the owner still is in love with his Rolls has decided to slowly repair the automobile beginning with the engine and then slowly repairing the body.
    Of course there were some parts that really needed replacement, and the Rolls Royce Company was very happy to send new parts to restore the Rolls back to its new condition.
    Now the relationship has again been rejuvenated and the love restored to life because of his love for the Rolls.

  • Parable Of The Sword

    Parable Of The Sword

    John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

    Do you conform to the world, or does the world conform to you? Do you see things the way you want to see them or is the world telling you what to see?

    An example is the judging on the TV program Forged In Fire. Newly forged swords are put through rigorous tests.

    One statement from the judges in these tests are:

    “It’s not how much damage the sword will produce on a block of ice, It’s how much damage was done to the sword by the ice.”

    Humankind, (the sword), believes the ice, (the world), shapes and instills it’s worldly ways inflicting “influences-damage” to a soul.

    It is the soul that designates what damage it prefers to instill upon itself. Humankind sees the ice, (the world), as the force that has control over the mind and not the other way around. The world is not your god so the soul can remain in freedom.

    Humankind, (the sword), controls the amount of impact, (goodness vs. evil) it chooses which the judge, (God), from a predestined basis, instills His “findings” based upon the damage produced by the test on the sword, (the soul) and has nothing to do with the damage done to the ice. (world)

    Why allow the “ice,” (world) to control the “damage” to the sword (humankind)?


    Humankind does not realize the god within itself is within our God of love-life. The soul chooses to serve itself, (god) and not the true God.

    1John 3:1  Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

  • Celestial Understanding

    Celestial Statement

    Your soul is God’s Created connection for Him to live and experience life through ALL of His Creation.
    This is your opportunity from God to live life as your own through His-your experiences.
    How can your spirit determine a truth without living through those experiences without determination by hearsay?
    The consciousness of God is living through you. Now how will you live your life knowing your experiences are His experiences?
    Creation came from within God, so how can God NOT experience the love projected by and through His Creation?
    It’s not any different than you and your family on vacation and seeing that there is enjoyment every single moment. This mindset gives a whole new meaning on how to live. If your not sure, refer to the Scriptures.
    How can you know anything to be a truth without the experience in a matter?
    Only love-truth can exist in the spiritual world. So how much love will you live for yourself and God?
    Heaven is as close as you are to love in life.
