WE ARE NOW FALLEN ANGELS BUT SHALL
BE “CALLED TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS”

The brightness of our
revelations depends upon the correctness of our doctrines, our
building
blocks. We who are saved, redeemed, imputed for
righteousness, born-again,
are spiritually ascending and descending Jacob’s ladder. (Gen 28:12;
John
1:51). God is Love. God is
Thought.
Thoughts are Life. God’s angels are His manifested Thoughts (His
Words). God is
a Spirit. Angels are His manifested Spirit. God is the eternal Spirit
from
which all things that are the entire manifested
universe was/is being
created. All S(s)pirits are God’s thoughts. You are a transitional part
of
God’s Spirit (Eccl 12:7); you
will become either an eternal Heavenly Spirit, or
an eternal fallen spirit.
TREES
OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
(Isa 61:1-3) 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.
ANGELS
ARE SYMBOLIZED AS FRUIT
TREES
The Garden of Eden is a
type and shadow of Heaven, i.e., the things in the Garden of
Eden are a “shadow”
of and symbolize things in Heaven. The only trees
that were in the
Garden of Eden were fruit trees [1] which, if the Garden of
Eden is indeed a type and shadow of Heaven, would symbolize angels.
How
do we know that all the trees of the Garden were fruit trees? [2,3,4] Prior to
partaking
of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, we may
surmise that
Adam and Woman, during the unknowable time they walked with God in the
Garden,
ate fruit from the other “trees” (the fruit is the message)
[5] of the Garden which were all
“good for food” (Gen 2:9), excepting they did not eat of the tree of
life.
1.
(Gen 1:11,12)
And God said, Let the earth bring forth
grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit
after his kind, whose seed is
in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought forth
grass, and herb yielding seed
after his
kind, and the tree yielding fruit,
whose seed was in itself,
after
his kind: and God saw that it was
good.
2.
(Gen
1:29) And God said, Behold, I
have
given you every herb bearing seed, which is
upon the face of all the earth, and
every tree, in the which is
the
fruit of a tree yielding seed [exclusively];
to you it shall be for meat
[Heb: food].
3.
(Gen 2:9)
And out of the ground made the LORD God to
grow every tree that is pleasant to
the sight, and good for food
[exclusively,
i.e., fruit trees]; the tree of life [representing Jesus Christ, also known as “the
angel of the Lord,” a pure tree] also in the midst of the
garden, and the tree of knowledge of
good and
evil [an impure tree,
representing
Lucifer/Satan (good/evil), a high ranking angel].
a.
Commentary: in both the
original Hebrew and Greek, the word angel
translates into “messenger.” Isn’t
Jesus Christ God’s best
and greatest messenger? Praise
God!
4.
(Gen 2:16,17)
And the LORD God
commanded the man, saying, Of every
tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat
[because they are all fruit trees
and therefore “good for food”]:
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, [although
it is “good for food”] thou shalt
not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof
thou shalt surely die. [“the woman saw
that the tree was good for food” Gen 3:6]
5.
(Gal 5:22,23)
But the fruit of the Spirit
is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness,
faith, Meekness,
temperance: against such there is no law [9 fruits of the Spirit]. (Eph
5:9)
(For the fruit of the Spirit is
in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) [3
fruits of the Spirit].
a.
(Rev 22:1-3)
And he shewed me a pure river of
water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of
the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it,
and on
either side of the river, was there
the tree of life,
which bare twelve manner
of fruits, and
yielded her fruit every month:
and the leaves of the tree were
for the healing of the nations. And
there shall be no more curse: but
the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants
shall serve
him:
ANGELS ARE SPIRITS
(Psa 104:4)
[It is God]
Who maketh his angels spirits;
his ministers a flaming fire: [Heb
1:7]
(Mar 5:8,9)
For he [Jesus Christ]
said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean
spirit. And he [Jesus Christ] asked him [the
fallen angel], What is thy name? And he
answered,
saying, My name is
Legion: for we are many.
1.
unclean = Gk: impure (ceremonially,
morally lewd) or specifically demonic:
foul.
2.
Commentary: The word “Legion”
identifies with a Roman Legion of approximately 6,000 warriors
(soldiers). By this and other Bible narratives we learn of numerous “unclean
spirits” i.e., fallen angels, that dwell inside people and
are composite
entities consisting of multiple spirits of
like-thinking fallen angels
forming “strong holds” (2 Cor 10:4) or castles of perverted
thoughts of God (the description of unclean spirits
and devils) in
our mind. Jesus uses the terms “unclean spirits” and “devils”
synonymously
in this same narrative, to which we also extra-biblically may apply the
terms
“demons” and “fallen angels.”
3.
Commentary: We have learned that
“unclean
spirits” (angels), i.e., fallen angels, are composites of multiple
spirits
of like-thinking angels (ref. multiples to “a lying spirit”
1 Kings
22:22,23).
4.
(Mark 5:15)
And they [the townspeople]
come
to Jesus, and see him that was possessed
with the devil [Gk:
exercised by
a demon] [3x], and had the legion,
sitting, and
clothed, and in his right mind [i.e., healed]: and
they were afraid.
GODLY
MEN ARE ALSO
(co-incidentally??) SYMBOLIZED AS FRUIT TREES,
(Psa
1:1-3)
Blessed [Heb: happy] is the man that walketh not in the counsel of
the ungodly, nor standeth in the
way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his
delight
is in the law of the LORD; and
in his law doth he meditate [Heb: ponder] [i.e., think about] day and night.
And he shall be like a tree planted [Heb: transplanted] [1] by the rivers of water [moving water, the Holy Spirit], that bringeth forth his
fruit in his season; his leaf also shall
not wither [2]; and whatsoever he doeth shall
prosper.
1.
transplanted = Dict: 1. to
dig up (a growing plant) from one place and plant [it]
in another. 2. to remove (people) from one place and resettle [them] in another.
2.
wither = Heb: fall away,
fail, faint; fig. be foolish or morally wicked: disgrace, dishonor,
make vile.
(Jer 17:7,8) Blessed is the man that trusteth in
the LORD, and whose hope the
LORD is. For he shall be as a tree planted [Heb: transplanted]
by
the waters, and that
spreadeth out her roots by the river, and
shall not see [notice nor
feel] when [unbearable] heat
cometh [a prophecy of
global thermo-nuclear war], but her
leaf shall be green [i.e.,
not burnt off or brown]; and shall
not be careful [Heb:
anxious: afraid] in the year of
drought [1],
neither shall cease from yielding fruit [indicating no lack of water for them, i.e., no
lack of the Holy
Spirit].
1.
(Amo
8:11,12) Behold, the
days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine [Heb:
hunger] [syn: drought]
in the land, not a famine
[Heb: hunger]
[syn: drought] of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: And
they [the unsaved] shall wander
from
sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and
fro to seek the word of the LORD, and
shall
not find it.
(Heb 13:2)
Be not forgetful to
entertain [Gk: to be hospitable to] strangers: for thereby some have
entertained [Gk: hosted] angels
unawares [Gk: unwittingly: been ignorant of].
1.
Commentary: the unsaved men
of
(Mat 7:15-20) Beware of false
prophets [Mat 13:33], which come to you in sheep's clothing, but
inwardly they are ravening
wolves [1]. Ye shall know them by their fruits.
Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good
tree [i.e., man/angel] bringeth forth good fruit; but
a corrupt tree [i.e.,
man/angel] [2] bringeth forth evil
fruit. A good
tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can
a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree [i.e., man/angel]
that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down,
and cast into
the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know
them.
1.
ravening = Dict: greedily
searching for prey.
2.
corrupt = rotten, worthless
(literally or morally): bad /// putrefy.
(Dan 12:4)
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the
words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end:
many
shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased. (Rev 22:10)
And he saith
unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of
this book: for the
time is at hand.
