THE FATE OF OUR COUNTRY

10-07-18 This message may be viewed live streaming video at www.tabernacleofmoses.org commencing today Sunday at 11:00 am, and repeated 24/7 for one week; thereafter, the video, audio, and study notes are archived.

The brightness of our revelations depends upon the correctness of our doctrines, our building blocks. God is Thought, God is Love, God is the eternal Spirit from which all things were created. You are a part of His Spirit (Eccl 12:7); you are either an eternal Spirit, or an eternal spirit.

CHAOS WILL PREVAIL (expect it)

(Mat 12:25)  And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom [country] divided against itself [e.g., Democrats vs. Republicans] is brought to desolation [Gk: laid waste: come to naught]; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand [Gk: continue]: [ref: Mark 3:24, 25; Luke 11:17]

THE PARABLE OF THE TARES SPOKEN BY JESUS

Mat 13:24  Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: Mat 13:25  But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. Mat 13:26  But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. Mat 13:27  So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? Mat 13:28  He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? Mat 13:29  But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Mat 13:30  Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

THE PARABLE OF THE TARES EXPLAINED BY JESUS TO HIS DISCIPLES

Mat 13:36  Then Jesus sent the [unbelieving] multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples [His believers] came unto him, saying, Declare [Gk: expound] [explain] unto us the parable of the tares of the field. Mat 13:37  He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; Mat 13:38  The field is the world [Gk: kosmos; “cosmos” (universe)]; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; Mat 13:39  The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world [Gk: aion; this world]; and the reapers are the angels. Mat 13:40  As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world [Gk: aion; this world] [1]. Mat 13:41  The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend [God], and them [the tares] which do iniquity [Gk: wickedness: unrighteousness]; Mat 13:42  And shall cast them into a furnace of fire [a consuming fire: global nuclear war]: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Mat 13:43  Then shall the righteous shine forth [Gk: be resplendent; Dict: shining brightly; full of splendor; dazzling; splendid] as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

1.     (Mark 16:15)  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world [Gk: kosmos; “cosmos” (universe)], and preach the gospel [of love] to every creature [a category that includes man and uncountable thousands of other animate sentient living entities].

THE COMPOSITE PARABLE OF THE TARES INTERPRETED

Mat 13:24  Another parable [1] put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man [“the Son of man” v.37 (Jesus Christ in us)] which sowed good seed [“the good seed are the children of the kingdom” v.38 (wheat, some of us, fallen angels, who are ultimately obedient believers)]  in his field [“The field is the world” v.38]: Mat 13:25  But while men slept [i.e., literally] [2] [and figuratively, also men did not pay attention, looked another way – looked toward the world], his enemy [“the devil” v.39] came and sowed tares [“the children of the wicked one” v.38 (tares, most of us, fallen angels, who are ultimately disobedient non-believers)] among [Gk: (in the ) midst (of)] the wheat [i.e., an excellent grain for food (bread)], and went his [(the devil’s, Satan’s)] way.

1.     (Luke 8:11)  Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God [i.e., we are God’s seed, spirits].

2.     (Job 33:14-16)  For God speaketh once [through His Word], yea twice, yet man perceiveth [Heb: beholds, sees] it not. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,

Mat 13:26  But when the blade [the stem] was sprung up [sprouted], and brought forth [uttered or spoken] fruit [“after his kind” 8x Gen 1:1-25; seed-word planted, word brought forth as the fruit of the seed] [1], then appeared the tares also [Gk: darnel or false grain] [uttering false doctrines (false belief systems)]. Mat 13:27  So the servants of the householder [Gk: the head of a family: master of the house] [we are the ultimately obedient servants of Jesus Christ] came and said unto him, Sir [Gk: kurios; supreme in authority: Lord, master], didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence [where] then hath it tares [i.e., Dict: poisonous grain]?

1.     (Gal 6:7)  Be not deceived; God is not mocked [Gk: ridiculed]: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. [i.e., be it good or bad].

Mat 13:28)  He [the householder, Jesus Christ] said unto them, An enemy [the devil, Satan] hath done this. The servants [ultimately obedient believers] said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? Mat 13:29  But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up [Gk: uproot] also the wheat with them [i.e., ye disengage the wheat, who are also the friends, neighbors and relatives of the tares, from Jesus Christ]. Mat 13:30  Let both grow together until the harvest [“the harvest is the end of the world (Gk: aion; this world)” v.39]: and in the time of harvest I [therefore] will say to the reapers [“the reapers are the angels” v.39] [1], Gather ye together [Gk: sullego; collect] first the tares [(A SIGN, A SIGNAL)][tares are ultimately disobedient non-believers], and bind [Gk: tie] [join together] them [with/by their doctrines in common (as wrapping strings)] in bundles [2] to burn them [Gk: consume wholly]: but gather [Gk: sunago; assemble] [i.e., to put (build) together] the wheat into my barn [i.e., into the Body of Christ]. [3]

1.     (1 Cor 6:3)  Know ye not that we [restored obedient believers, i.e., restored fallen angels] shall judge [never to be restored disobedient non-believers, i.e., fallen] angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

2.     bundles = Dict: a number of things tied, wrapped, or otherwise held together.

a.      Commentary: we shall judge bundles of politicians (notable for their extreme self-centered greed) and other smaller non-believing unrepentant bundles of false doctrines such as feminists, abortionists, homosexuals, atheists, actors, “and all liars” (Rev 21:8), etc., etc.

3.     Advanced Commentary: “my barn” = the structure of “my barn” is based upon the archetype of Noah’s ark. The tabernacle of God (Rev 21:3), extra-biblically called the tabernacle of Moses, being a further type and shadow of Noah’s ark, was constructed by assembling the wooden priest-boards of felled trees (i.e., repentant fallen angels).

a.      (Exo 26:15)  And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim [Heb: the acacia tree (from its scourging thorns)] wood standing up.

b.     (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 day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

c.      (Psa 127:1)  A Song of degrees for Solomon. Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

d.     (Rev 21:3)  And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

Amen
