Lou, I doubt you could write anything about the foundation of Judaism, or the children of Israel (the 12 tribes) that would surprise, but go for it. I am interested (curious) in what you have had revealed about that.

Are you quoting the Book of Revelation because it happens to go along with what you have had revealed to you? I don't quite understand your Jewish connection to the NT. I admire you for it, as it shows you are a soul with an open (enlightened) mind. http://scriptures.lds.org/en/rev/1
John sees Jesus and has revealed to him by Jesus this great vision while on the Isle of Patmos, and is commanded to record it. If I am to understand correctly (and I may be wrong) this is the same John who wrote the Gospel of St. John, and 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John in the NT. He is also the John who is still on the earth today, somewhere, working with the tribes that are lost. http://scriptures.lds.org/en/bd/j/52

Dummelow, page 1057 says 1st John is the last recorded scripture of the NT. In point of time the very last recorded words of scripture are: "Little children, keep yourselves from idols!" http://scriptures.lds.org/en/1_jn/5

Of course, there are other opinions too. But if John can say in the first chapter of Revelation that he had this revealed to him while he was on the Isle of Patmos, then we know it happened sometime in John's past. And what he wrote in 1st, 2nd and 3rd John was kind of his last ditch effort to keep the churches out of apostasy, then his final plea to all the world before he stopped writing, "keep yourself from idols". Perhaps that would tie in with what you were wanting to say regarding other gods. I simply provide these links to enhance your study. I particularily like the "listen" feature at the top (of the scripture pages, not of the Bible Dictionary). http://scriptures.lds.org/en/bd/r/33
This reference states that the first three chapters of Revelation are speaking to the churches in John's day, and chapters 4-22 deals with things yet future for John, or it begins with John's time and continues to the end of the world as we know it. (the world will change, but like us, it is eternal too)

You believe in that too don't you? The Messiah will come. We are all preparing for that future event, and look forward to it together, even though we understand it a little differently. Most believe it because the foundation of all faith was the same (in Adam) but there's been confusions with the message right from the beginning.

It is important to keep an enlightened mind so that understanding can filter in.

rayww,
There are many questions that you have proposed here and I would like to reply to each of them.
You wrote,[...keep yourself from idols...].
This discussion had someplace where it was discussed as to the idols of the heart, which could be further discussed as to your post here.
Could you take one question from you post that you would like to discuss first here?
Lou

Dena,
Now we go to stage 5 of overcomming. We read in the book called The Revelation in chapter 3 verse 5,[...He that overcomes shall be clothed in white garments and I will not blot out his name from the book of life...].
It has been revealed to me that in the stages of overcomming one that reaches this stage will have a different clothing. This clothing is called the clothing of white garment and the book called the Revelation is a book of symbols , the white garment being something that happens to one that has to do with their appearance to others as a light shinning in a dark place. This has been revealed to me that this appearance is given to those that as in verse 4 here in chapter 3,[...there are a few here which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy...].
It has been revealed to me that the {white garment} is the {glory of God}, that a person's perception is of that person to be a light in a dark place. One that has overcome to this degree as that they are unspotted, is as to that their carnal mind has been conquered and put to death, which is death to the carnal mind, the death of death, a second death, so that the spiritual mind is their whole {garment}.
As I read that verse I was led to the book called Isaiah, chapter 49, verse 6 which reads;[...I will also give my sevants to be a light to others, that they will receive salvation...]and I am reminded of a Psalm, 104, verses 1 and 2, which read,[...my God, You are very great: You are clothed with honor and majesty, Who cover yourself with light as with a garment, Who strtch out the heavens like a cutain...].
And then to the book called Isaiah chapter 60 verse 1 to 3 as we read;
Arise, shine;
For your light has come!
And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth,
And deep darkness the people;
But the Lord will arise over you.
And kings to the brightness of your rising.
It has been revealed to me that the white garment is given to those that God is now using as a servant of God, to be a light to those around them to reveal the aspects that are good concerning the Kingdom of God to them, and that the Kingdom of God is at hand, that is within them, that they can cross over the Great Gulf and eat of the tree of life which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.

So Lou... I'm seeing that God seems to choose or "elect" some, a small group, through whom He seems to want to bless ALL... is that what you've come to believe as well...?

I see that He chose Abram to become Abraham, and told him that "through you all nations [all people] will be blessed."

I see that many are called, but few are chosen... the Jews were chosen to be a blessing to all people... and then others were grafted in, in order for the fulness of Gentiles to make the Jews jealous and bring them back to God... and then the Jews, being the overcomers (along with the grafted-in ones) will be that blessing to all nations, bringing that Light to all, who have all BEEN reconciled to God, but are still blind to that reality... and THAT is the good news, which has unfortunately been skewed by those who cannot receive a free gift, but somehow believe (or desire) that they should earn it, which they already have.

What's confusing to me is the timeline of everything... and what part of what's in the Revelation of John is for what has already passed, what part is a metaphor for what is continually going on (spiritually), and what is what is yet to happen...

Can you speak to that Lou, without getting off track in what you're sharing here -- does that tie in at all, or would you rather come back to that (my qusetions) later?

Shalom, Dena

Dena,
You wrote,[...and told him...many are called...that Light...]
It has been revealed to me that this time here is to some the darkest hour of their lives and that there is a sign here to those reading this. It has been revealed to me that when this sign can be seen, that there could be a new day with new light that could lead some to The Kingdom of God, The Paradise of God, The Promised Land.
It has been revaled to me now that The Sun of Rightiousness is arising here with healing in His wings, for the sign is here, the sign that the God that i give worship and service to has revaled to me would be That Sign that would be given to those that the dawn is here, there could be a new day and that the darkness could be dispelled.
It has been revealed to me that That Sign is the Sign of Jonah,asJonah was in the belly of the Great Fish,thatwouldbe The Sign as for as Jonah was in the Heart of the Great Fish, we would be in the Heart of the Earth. The Heart of the Earth is the heart of the carnal existance, for we are earth, formed from the dust of the ground. And as ouearthly mind is in the profound state of death, the carnal mind, then it has been revaeled to me that this is the Sign of Jonah to one that is in their darkest hour, the Heart of the Earth as being trapped like Jonah and fearing hopelesness and fear.
It has been revealed to me that if one is in this state that they are in The Heart of the Earth and could think that their God has forsaken them. it has been revaled to me that in this state one is being {called} by their God to be brought out of the darkness and into a marvelous light and as Jonah was in the belly of the great fish for three days and three nights, that is the sign to us that when we are in The Heart of the Earth for three days and three nights, the sign of Jonah, to wait on the Lord.

Yes, I know how it feels to be in darkness, and to believe, due to my perception, that God has forsaken me... when I choose my own independence from Him, that choice blinds me to Him, it seems...

It FEELS as though He has then forsaken me, but I've come to believe that He never leaves me, nor forsakes me, not even when I turn from Him ... it's just that I then blind myself to Him.

I see that when the Messiah was suffering, He cried out (quoting David), "My God, my God, why have You forsaken Me?" Some theologians have told me that this means God turned away from Him, and separated Himself from the Messiah, because at that moment, as He was being the sacrifice, He took on the sins of the world, and became sin, and God cannot abide sin, and so abandoned Him...

But, I believe that when the Messiah took on the world's sins, and became sin, God WAS STILL WITH HIM ... it's just that the Messiah, in that state, could not perceive the Father with Him. However, they are One, and cannot separate, and God does not abandon us in our sins ...

... also, I see that God was IN The Messiah, reconciling the world to Himself. At that moment, that moment of reconciliation, God was IN Him, and not separated...

It's amazing to me that my perceptions can be mistaken, and yet they are. That's when I must trust, that He is there, and is using EVEN the darkness for His purposes, and for my good.

(I hope this tied in, Lou, and didn't distract.)

Shalom, Dena

Dena,
You wrote,[...to be in darkness...choose my own independence...FEELS...to believe...perceptions can be mistaken...trust...using EVEN the darkness...]
It has been revealed to me that when one experiances The Sign of Jonah, it is a calling and if one is in the darkness, feeling forsaken, that they could then know that there is hope and that the Sun of Rightiousness is arrising with healing in His wings. And it has been revealed to me that many are called,and that many in this manner, and that if one recognizes that they are in the Valley of the Shadow of Death, that they can be delivered from the darkness.
It has been revealed to me that one could spend three days and three nights in this darkness and if one knows of this that they can choose to endure like Jonah, who was called, and be chosen.

moonlightsonata2,
You asked about what receiving revelation entails.
This is something that IMO could change your life today. You see, I have been writing about two minds, the mind of the flesh, or carnal mind, and the mind of the spirit.
I have also been writing about the thinking of the two minds and that there is a great gulf separating the two minds that one can cross over. This crossing over could be looked at as {comming over} to the spiritual mind and {comming over} could also be looked at as {overcomming}.
It has been revealed to me that the crossing over from the carnal mind to the spiritual mind can be done in many ways and that there are three things to overcome that could allow one to cross over from the carnal to the spiritual mind. These three things are the world, the flesh and the devil.
It has been revealed to me that to be carnally minded is death and to be spiritually minded is life and peace, for the thinking in the two minds are different.
It has been revealed to me that there is a Way that could have one be bridged to come over to the spiritual mind to Life in the spirit. It has been revealed to me that one can find the Way and the Life.
I have been writing about the beast that came out of the sea, which has been revealed to me to be the carnal mind, death. I believe that when one sees the beast come out of the sea that that is one way that could lead one to the Great Gulf and want to cross over to the spiritual mind.
It has been revealed to me that we have a seed of the spirit in us and that when it is watered by the rain, it will regenerate and florish the spiritual mind within us. This rain could be seen differently, like a gentle rain falling softly in the meadow. This water, which is the Water of Life is a spiritual water. It has been revealed to me that this water is The Word of God....more

mls2 and Dena,
The topic that I think is important here is mls2's question,[...what should I do...?]
Friends, if you are reading this , then I think that there could be the most dramatic change in your life to happen soon. I say soon because it has been revealed to me that when one wants to know the answer to that question that they are in the latter days that could lead to the Kingdom of God. I believe that when one asks that question that they are standing on one side of the Great Gulf, the gulf between that separates the carnal mind from the spiritual mind and that one wants to cross over to the spiritual kingdom which has been revealed to me to be Light and peace, from the carnal mind, which has been revealed to me to be darkness and death.
In order to have a Way to bridge the Great Gulf to come over to the Kingdom of God, it has been revealed to me that we can not do so on our own, for the great gulf is so wide and so deep, with sheer cliffs, that the human ability is insufficient to jump or climb over to the Kingdom of God.
There is a book that the Jews use in their scriptures that is called Genesis that tells of man's creation and in it there writes what I have experianced. In the 2end chapter, the 25th verse we read,[...And they were both naked...and were not ashemaed...].
That was before they ate of the tree of the knowlege of good and evil. They were not ashamed!
Then they ate of the tree of the knowlege of good and evil and we read in chapter 3 the 7th verse,[...And the eyes of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons...]
Then in chapter 3 verse 21 we read that in this time of the beginning of the foundation of the world, God made coats of skins and clothed them. It has been revealed to me that God slayed an animal for that animal's skin to cover the nakedness of mankind, for the apron of fig leaves that man makes on his own could deteriorate.
And it has been revealed to me that when God slew the animal for the skin to cover their nakedness, then blood was shed of that animal.
It has been revealed to me that in our latter days when we are standing on the edge of the Great Gulf that we are naked. more...

Dena,
You asked as to what to do.
When I was standing on the edge of the Great Gulf, I wrote some previously concerning that, but not everything.
When I was there, I saw the other side way far away. But then I felt the the earth move under my feet and rocks were falling down the cliffs and the walls of the cliffs rumbled. Then the walls of the cliff moved toward each other, slowly and huge rocks tumbled down. I was on top of a mountain and the cliff walls kept moving toward each other untill a rope bridge was thrown from the other side and landed at my feet.
I walked over to the other side and there were a great multitude of baby sheep, lambs, and a Rider on a White Horse. I asked the Rider how this happened and He said to me, "Your small amount of faith has moved mountains."

Dena,
You wrote,[...what was this all about...?]
The scene at the Great Gulf was one that I had written some of what happened there but the scene was horrific and so when I wrot e of it at first, I did not write of all that happened there.
But now that you have asked, there were signs and wonders happening when the two sides of the cliffs moved toward each other, terribleness. And when the rope bridge was tossed to me by the Rider on the White Horse, I staked it to a tree with a screw driver that I had and the rope briidge was swaying wildly as the earth shook. At first I could not see any way that anyone could walk that bridge under the conditions. Then I saw a dead tree on the groud that looked like a long pole. I picked it up and it was tremendously heavy and I used it as a balancing pole like you may have seen those use in walking a high wire in a circus performance.
I took up that tree and was able to get about 2 feet from the other side and I lost control of the tree and balance and I tipped to fall into the Great Gulf. But then the Rider on the White Horse put out His Outstretched Arm and with His Might Hand brought me forth out of the relm of darkness and death into the kingdom of light and peace.

Dena,
Thia thread is concerning another member's question as to how things could be revealed to them. The symbols can be broken down as you have asked for me to do.
What you have been reading may be something that you may know of. What I have been writing about here is a deliverance from bondage. It is deliverance from bondage of the carnal mind. The symbols here are those that many know, but they are different from what they may know of.
You see, it has been revealed to me that the God that the Jews believe in, which is the same God that I believe in, reveals Himself in a way that the scriptures that the Jews use depicts. It has been revealed to me that He delivers all men from the bondage of death. I have been writing about that the carnal mind is darkness and death and that the spiritual mind is light and peace and life.
The book called Exodus describes a miraculous deliverance from the bondage of slavery. I believe that the book is accurate and that all that is written in that book actually happened.
When I was on the mountaintop by the Great Gulf, the sea did not part so that I could walk to the promised land, the sides of the two mountains came together so that I could walk to the Kingdom of God. What a miracle.
You may be aquainted with the book called Deuteronomy. In capter 26 in verse 8 it reads,[...And the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand and with an outstretched arm...]. I believe that that God will bring all out of bondage with his outstretched arm and mighty hand in some miraculous way, if one has just a tiny amount of faith, for that faith could move mountains.
But the member here wants to know how they can have things revealed to them. How can one have faith?
My friends, one can have faith by hearing The Word of God, and I have been writing here about the Word of God and people that read this {hear} the Word of God. And sometime from now one may hear so that they have just a tiny amount of faith and then they can move their mountains, they can be free from their bondage, they can be in the promised land.

Dena,
After I was grabbed by the Rider's outstretched arm and mighty hand, He lifted me up from the cliff's side where I was dangling. I said to Him, "You saved me from falling into the abyss. What are you doing here." Then the Rider said to me, "I have come to save that which was lost." I asked, "Why?" The Rider said to me, "What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astry, does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to the mountains to seek the one that is straying? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? It is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one man should perish, for all men like sheep have gone astry. I am the good shepherd, I come to seek the lost sheep of the House of Israel and other sheep I have which are not of that fold, them also I will bring and they shall hear my voice. All that the Father has given me shall come to me; and him that comes to me I will in no wise cast out. And this is the Father's will that sent me, that of all He has given Me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day."

Lou, I have to ask: Who is included in the total of "all that the Father has given me" [The Rider]?

Is it a select few, some, most, or all?

What does this paragraph, which you wrote, mean to you?

(though I recognize the verses from Scripture, the plain understanding of them goes contrary to that which I was traditionally taught ... I've come to believe that God's mercy is far more vast than what is traditionally taught...)

Dena,
You wrote,[...who is included...]
What I have been writing about here is about faith. It was faith that moved the mountains together. It was faith that I came from one side to the other. It was faith that saved me from falling into the abyss. And it has been revealed to me that faith comes by hearing the Word of God. And it has ben revealed to me that the Word of God is within you, so that one can hear the Word wherever they may be, whosoever they may be. And it has been revealed to me that all we like sheep have gone astray.
So to reply to your querry, I asked the Rider for the same answer, and He said to me, "My sheep hear my voice."

Yes, His sheep hear His voice...

And yet, we hear Him speaking of the goats, who are separated from the sheep ... how does that fit in to your understanding?

Dena,
You wrote,[...goats, who are separated from the sheep...].
In the posts here I have written about the {outstretched arm} and {the mighty hand}. It has been revealed to me that the {mighty hand} and the {outstretched arm} are powerfull enough to reach out to the goats as well as the sheep. For I asked the Rider about that and He said to me, "God will pour out His spirit on all men so that the arm of the Lord is revealed, and His Spirit will draw all men to Myself."

That made my spirit sing, Lou...!

So, when I explain what I now believe to my traditional friends, they say, "yeah, but, He said the goats go away into eternal punishment, while the sheep go into eternal life. Eternal for one, has to mean eternal for the other."

I know how *I* explain that passage, but how do you, Lou?

Just wondering if we've been shown the same thing...
