The Book of Ecclesiastes

Ecclesiastes - Chapter 5

Ecclesiastes 5:1 says, "Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil." "Keep thy foot" means "watch what church you walk into, be aware of their teachings." "Fool" means "stupid, arrogant." It is necessary to discern if you are truly in a "House of Father God" where "His Teachings" are being taught and not the foolishness of the Biblically illiterate who call themselves teachers and playing church. You will only know the difference if you are familiar with Father's Word so you know the truth from the lies. You can be sure if Father's Word is not taught from pulpits Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse, you are in the wrong church.

Ecclesiastes 5:2 says, "Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter [any] thing before God: for God [is] in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few." "Rash" means "to be hasty." When you pray and communicate with Father, you do not want to be rushing wherein you make promises you will not keep or you are just spending a little time with Jesus so you can rush off to please your earthly desires. It is far better to say nothing than to think you are fooling Father God with your empty words. Our LORD wants His children to understand His Word, those spiritual things spoken from His mouth as He sits on His Throne in Heaven and when you understand His Truths, spiritually you are with Him, knowing right from wrong.

Ecclesiastes 5:3 says, "For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice [is known] by multitude of words." Working diligently to sustain your physical body and working harder to sustain your spiritual body, when you lay down to sleep, you have pleasant dreams (peace of mind) as you "Rest is in Christ Jesus" because you are doing right, are grateful and this pleases Father God. A fool (the stupid or arrogant one) however, spews foolishness from their mouths in the name of the god they serve with their Biblical illiteracy and when they sleep, their dreams having as much sense as what they speak; there is just plain confusion since they have no "Rest in Christ Jesus." Even in their dreams there is unrest as they wrestle with ideas that have no substance.

Ecclesiastes 5:4 says, "When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for [he hath] no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed." "Vow" means "a promise." It is better to not make promises to Father than to make and break them. Just speak with Father and let Him know you are doing the very best you can and ask for His help with whatever weighs heavy on your heart. Father surely appreciates that humble offering over a commitment that is difficult for you to keep. Flesh can cause you to stumble, having no dedication to Father, since it is a shell and this is why you want your spiritual self to have a true relationship, Spirit to spirit with our Father, who knows all things about you, through Christ Jesus. You do not have to prove you are a trying to walk a Christ-like path, Father knows when you are.

Ecclesiastes 5:5 says, "Better [is it] that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay." The flesh being weak as it is, it is better not to make promises to Father God if they are not from your spiritual self. However, if you have made a vow to Father, keep it or do the very best you can to keep it, always communicating with Father, seeking forgiveness when you slip away from that promise, always from a humble heart. Just to touch on the earthly matter, be watchful of churches who press you to make a vow, such as with tithing, enticing you to do so with religious words. Most often they are simply stealing your money for their cause, which is supporting their life of luxury. Offer your tithes where you are taught truth and use common sense when doing so, seeking guidance from Father God.

Ecclesiastes 5:6 says, "Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it [was] an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?" An "angel" is a "messenger" being the "Spirit that comes from Almighty God (Spirit to spirit). Do not let the words of your mouth cause you to be sinful before Father God. Pray and meditate on what you feel is necessary to promise before doing so, knowing it is of your spiritual self and not just a whim of your physical self. If you have made a promise that you did not keep, do not lie to Father and deny having made it or say it was a mistake, because when you lie Father will not trust you. Rather, let Father know you are sorry, repent from a pure heart in the Name of Christ Jesus, do the best you can to be pleasing to Father and receive His blessings. Father's Word, His Truths will bring you knowledge and understanding of what is necessary to be pleasing to Him and you will find promises are not really necessary, especially when they are to your detriment, because you willfully lied. Father wants you to love Him, seek the increase of understanding, receive His gifts, be under His will and be worthy to do His work upon this earth. Let your spiritual self be your guide and not your physical self.

Ecclesiastes 5:7 says, "For in the multitude of dreams and many words [there are] also [divers] vanities: but fear thou God." "Fear" means "love, revere." When your mind gets mixed up and you are unable to make sense of things, empty words start coming out of your mouth wherein your thoughts and words make no sense and you find yourself doing the wrong things. Love Father God and listen to His Word. Seek to walk a Christ-like path, feel the Holy Spirit and let your thoughts, words and actions be pleasing to Father because you are doing those things which are right because you "love Him."

Ecclesiastes 5:8 says, "If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for [he that is] higher than the highest regardeth; and [there be] higher than they." "The Highest" is "Father God Almighty." Father sits high and looks low and sees how His children are mistreated and misguided. He sees how lifestyles and acts of injustice go without penalty. Our LORD hates injustice perpetrated by people who sit in the seats of justice. Father God is our "Highest Authority." He created all souls and all shall answer to Him. All the unrighteous people of this earth who are full of recklessness now with their evil doings and lies that mislead shall be held accountable. The day is coming when they will stand before the "Throne of Almighty God for that "Great White Throne Judgment" and all wrongs committed while walking in the flesh will be made right. Father God is "Judge and Jury." And let us not forget for the pulpit gurus misleading Father's children with their doctrines and traditions of men, judgment begins at the pulpit (I Peter 4:17) for them as well. Now is the time for any guilty of these offences to come before Father in the Name of Christ Jesus, confessing of their sins from a pure heart and changing from their wickedness.

Ecclesiastes 5:9 says, "Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king [himself] is served by the field." When it comes to the business (profit of the earth), the people (field) are more important to the employer (king) than the employer is to the people. Those with much, rich as a king, would not have anything at all if not for the people employed by them who do all the work. This is why all those who are under the will of Father God, while they are employed by the employer, their works are for and to please Father God. The employer thinks he is in charge, however he is not. Father God is in control of all things of Heaven and earth and all need the blessings of Father God to be blessed with those things which are needful. This is why no matter what your employer may do against you, stand on the "Rock of our Foundation who is Christ Jesus", love, serve and be under the "will of Father God Almighty", and you will always have a veil of protection from the top of your head to the soles of your feet. Father God takes care of His own (I Chronicles 16:22 / Psalms 105:15).

Ecclesiastes 5:10 says, He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this [is] also vanity." The flesh is never satisfied no matter how much it has, both hands full and still grabbing, worrying yourself to death over someone stealing it or being asked for assistance. Get a clue. When Father God is not a part of your life in a mighty way, no matter how much you have, you will never be satisfied because there is no peace of mind. If you are driven by the flesh and have no true spiritual love for Father God and Christ Jesus, having love, compassion, patience, all the emotions Christ Jesus taught as He walked the earth we should have in fellowship one for another, your empty shell is accompanied by a spirit body of emptiness as well.

Ecclesiastes 5:11 says, "When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: and what good [is there] to the owners thereof, saving the beholding [of them] with their eyes?" All that you have, except for that which is needful to sustain your flesh body and provide you with the luxuries you crave are good for nothing except to stand and look at it. That is the only purpose it serves other than being given to someone else when you pass away.

Ecclesiastes 5:12 says, "The sleep of a labouring man [is] sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep." Those who work hard for Father God, physically and spiritually, have "rest (Christ Jesus) and peace of mind." They have very pleasant sleep. Those with much, worrying about keeping it selfishly and trying to increase it, excluding Father God for that which you can see, feel and touch, you have no rest (Christ Jesus) or peace of mind, therefore under the exhaustion of worry, you have no pleasant sleep. A fool does as a fool is, stupid.

Ecclesiastes 5:13 says, "There is a sore evil [which] I have seen under the sun, [namely], riches kept for the owners thereof to their hurt." The "sore evil" troubling those who walk under the sun, flesh man, is maintaining the riches they have acquired. They have no rest or peace of mind because they have no love or have a relationship for or with Father God. Their love is for their tangible things. Worrying about anything means you "doubt Father God and His Promises" and that will certainly keep your spirit without "rest which is in Christ Jesus."

Ecclesiastes 5:14 says, "But those riches perish by evil travail: and he begetteth a son, and [there is] nothing in his hand." "Evil travail" means "to be broken - afflict/mishandled." They had the riches, worried themselves to death about it and all the while there was some slippery doer robbing them blind, and by the time they passed away, taking nothing tangible with them of course, there was nothing left. Also, you cannot leave to a loved one anything that no longer exists. It is far better to be concerned about your spiritual heritage which is passed down from Father God, if, you have earned it since it is Eternal.

Ecclesiastes 5:15 says, "As he came forth of his mother's womb, naked shall he return to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand." Money comes and goes. You come into this world naked and you leave the same way. The flesh body returns to the dust, however your spirit self, your soul returns to Father God and how richly it will be clothed in the Eternal Age is entirely up to you as your garb shall be your righteous acts for Father God (Revelation - Chapter 7) as you walked within your flesh body. Revelation 14:13 says, "And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed [are] the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them."

Ecclesiastes 5:16 says, "And this also [is] a sore evil, [that] in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the wind?" When the wind blows you cannot grasp a handful of it. The treasures of this earth are just as the wind, you cannot keep them within your hands. The treasures you seek are those which you "will" carry with you to the Eternal Age. Love and work for Father God while walking in the flesh so that your Heavenly rewards are great, given by Father to cloth yourself in the Heavenly Age.

Ecclesiastes 5:17 says, "All his days also he eateth in darkness, and [he hath] much sorrow and wrath with his sickness." "Darkness" is "satan." The "Light" is "Christ Jesus." Therefore, you feed from the "Light from Father's Word, who is Jesus Christ, our Living Word." You are in darkness when walking with satan wherein your life is one of fear, stumbling through the unknown, troubles and worry plaguing your living. Get out of that darkness and come to the "Light" where you will be received with gladness. Walk into the Truth of Father's Word, study and pray for the increase of understanding that only Almighty God can give when you seek, ask, and knock.

Ecclesiastes 5:18 says, "Behold [that] which I have seen: [it is] good and comely [for one] to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it [is] his portion." Stop worrying as you walk under the sun within your flesh body. Put your faith in Father God in all things that you do and seek to accomplish, remembering there is no obstacle anyone can put in your path that Father will not help you find a way around. Father will see to it that you have all that is required, your share (portion), when you love Him, bring Him pleasure (study and understand His Word) and be His faithful service (seed planter).

Ecclesiastes 5:19 says, "Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this [is] the gift of God." "Eat" means "having the knowledge to hold on to the gifts of Father God that you earned."You are rich through Father God's blessings and with that gift comes power over all of your enemies. Eat, partake of the "Light which is the very Word of Father God" with hard labor to receive the blessings of Father God who always takes care of His own. There is only one way to avoid being a "fool" and that is by remembering the more Father entrusts to your knowledge, giving you wisdom, the more that is required from you to use that understanding to plant seeds of truth wherever they may be heard, sharing the "Good Gospel." This is how Father's Word is spread. Pleasing Father will bring great joy to your spirit and receiving your portion because of it will cause you to rejoice in the love Father has for you.

Ecclesiastes 5:20 says, "For he shall not much remember the days of his life; because God answereth [him] in the joy of his heart." Father God gives gifts to His children who deserve them and it is your responsibility to enjoy those gifts with gladness. You should be very happy to be under the will of Almighty God, laboring for His cause, a part of His Perfect Plan, building your gospel armor with the Truths of Father's Word and sharing that understanding, planting seeds for all seeking to be a part of the "many-membered Body of Christ Jesus." When you accomplish all things in your life through Father God, even though there will still be tough times, as you go on each day, you will not even remember the struggles gone by. In pleasing Almighty God you will find rest, peace of mind and gladness.

The Book of Ecclesiastes

Ecclesiastes - Chapter 4

Ecclesiastes 4:1 says, "So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of [such as were] oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors [there was] power; but they had no comforter." The "Comforter" is the "Holy Spirit (John 14:16 - 31), which came into this world on Pentecost Day (Acts - Chapter 2). As you walk within your flesh body and trouble always seem to come your way from evil doers and the kenites asserting their authority through the power of wickedness, greed and satan's evil influence, you can trample on all of your enemies when you call on Father God and feel the protecting embrace of His Spirit.

Ecclesiastes 4:2 says, "Wherefore I praised the dead which are already dead more than the living which are yet alive." When you look at all the bad things happening in this country, in this world, right where you live, you cannot help but to think how blessed those who have passed away are since they no longer have to deal with the evils of this world, as they are now in the loving arms of Father God. However, "stand" for our Father since He has a purpose for you right here on this earth, and remember that our LORD always takes care of His own when you love Him and are faithful to His Word.

Ecclesiastes 4:3 says, "Yea, better [is he] than both they, which hath not yet been, who hath not seen the evil work that is done under the sun." This is speaking of those souls who have not yet been born from above. Naturally, not yet born into their flesh bodies, they have no idea of the evils of this earth. Keep in mind however, you do not want to think about how fortunate those who have passed on and those who have yet to be born are, since this emotion will cause you to have a defeatist attitude, and with that, you will always chase peace of mind. It is better to love Father, have faith in His promises, and know what they are and what your purpose is by studying His Word and asking for that increase of understanding only He can give. In this way you can plant seeds of truth that draw others from the troubles of this world that they may likewise have peace of mind in Christ Jesus, feeling the joy of serving Father God.

Ecclesiastes 4:4 says, "Again, I considered all travail, and every right work, that for this a man is envied of his neighbour. This [is] also vanity and vexation of spirit." This is being envious of someone else's achievements acquired by the blessings of Father God because they are under His Will and working in His field, which is the world, planting seeds of truth (Father's Word). It is a waste of time to be envious of someone who is gifted of Father God since the emotion is as "chasing the wind (vexation of spirit)." The wind will not feed you, cloth you or pay your bills. The wind cannot bless you. Be happy for those who are blessed of Father God and seek those same rewards by serving Father yourself.

Ecclesiastes 4:5 says, "The fool foldeth his hands together, and eateth his own flesh." Envy will cause you to become lazy, since it certainly will not encourage you to work hard, and eventually you will become hungry and homeless as you do nothing except destroy yourself with wishful thinking and dreams that never become fruitful actions. Father's arms are open and all you have to do is go to Him in faithful service.

Ecclesiastes 4:6 says, "Better [is] an handful [with] quietness, than both the hands full [with] travail and vexation of spirit." It is better to be pleasing to Father God, serving him, having one hand full since that is all you need, than it is to have both hands full, still grabbing, lost in this world of greed, chasing the wind and never catching peace of mind. You cannot serve Father God and serve this world at the same time.

Ecclesiastes 4:7 says, "Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun." When you think about these things and take a good look at envy, folded arms too lazy to work, dreams never practiced and/or just plain greedy, grabbing everything in sight, all elements of chasing the wind which cannot be caught, here you have it, emptiness. There is no peace of mind within your flesh body because you have left Father God out and therefore you have no communion with His Holy Spirit and no knowledge of His Word, who is Christ Jesus. There is far greater joy in blessings from Father God than chasing the earthly things of this world.

Ecclesiastes 4:8 says, "There is one [alone], and [there is] not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet [is there] no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither [saith he], For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This [is] also vanity, yea, it [is] a sore travail." This is speaking of people who just work, work, work, not lazy, making money hand over fist, however there is no one loving or standing by that person, having no family or friends to share the fortune or to leave it to. Most often people like this are misers and you also have those who live large, trying to find joy in possessions because neither have any peace of mind. One way or the other, there is no other individual they truly care about. Living alone, no one to talk to, having wealth, however void of the privilege of loving our Father God, His Son and being filled with the Holy Spirit, wherein is peace of mind. Emptiness, vanity and fatigue (travail) are a terrible combination. Flesh is a shell without Father God.

Ecclesiastes 4:9 says, "Two [are] better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour." This is fellowship, having someone to share life with. Father gives different gifts to different people and combining them makes a whole. You can help each wherein one may be weak and the other is strong. There is no more loving family then one grounded on the "Rock of our Foundation who is Christ Jesus."

Ecclesiastes 4:10 says, "For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him [that is] alone when he falleth; for [he hath] not another to help him up." Ultimately, if you fall and do not have Father God to bless and lift you up, bringing you joy and hope through "His Promises", you are in a bad situation. People will walk away from you in time of troubles, however Father God will never leave or forsake you, and He will also send someone to help you because this is what true fellowship is.

Ecclesiastes 4:11 says, "Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm [alone]?" In extreme cold temperatures when there is no natural heat, you can cuddle and keep each other warm, however if you are alone, you could freeze to death. Spiritually, this is the warmth of the Holy Spirit from the top of your head to the souls of your feet, feeling the love of Father God when He blesses you. All that is required is you giving yourself over to Father. You are never alone since you also have Christ Jesus. What a wonderful embrace this is, having Father God, Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

Ecclesiastes 4:12 says, "And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken." If you have an enemy that comes up against you and a loved one, and you are under the "Hand of Father God, you have our Father, His Son and the Holy Spirit on your side of the battle and this is sure victory. You are well protected when you hold on to the "Triune Cord that can never be broken." The son of perdition, satan himself and all of our enemies cannot stand against anyone who has Father God within their spiritual self since Father gives you power over all of your enemies through Christ Jesus (Luke 10:19).

Ecclesiastes 4:13 says, Better [is] a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished. "A poor and wise child" is always looking for advice for a way out to establish a relationship with Father God, while the "old and foolish king" is so consumed with their own foolish wisdom that they will not take advice, heed warnings or listen to anyone, and this conceit will eventually cause them to fall. Father God is not at the top of their intellectual decisions and governing. It is necessary to have a humble spirit as a child to appreciate and accept listening to what Father God says is necessary to have peace of mind within these flesh bodies, heeding to the teachings of Christ Jesus and having the comfort of the Holy Spirit.

Ecclesiastes 4:14 says, "For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also [he that is] born in his kingdom becometh poor." Joseph brothers sold him into captivity (Genesis - Chapter 37) because of jealousy of the gift of wisdom Father God had given him. While in captivity, having knowledge given to him by Father God, Joseph interpreted a dream had by Pharaoh (Genesis - Chapter 41) and was appointed as royalty and became governor over Egypt. All wisdom comes from Father God when you are found to be worthy by loving Father God and studying His Word, seeking that increase of understanding only He can give. With wisdom comes compassion mingled with forgiveness for and toward others; that same compassion Christ Jesus has for His children.

Ecclesiastes 4:15 says, "I considered all the living which walk under the sun, with the second child that shall stand up in his stead." This is speaking of popularity which is a dangerous walk to those seeking it because it is erratic (fickle); the weakness of the flesh of so many people craving and striving to reach that state of admiration. Popular and trouble seems to be a good match for a bad marriage. The very elect do not have to concern themselves with that fashion trend as most often they will not win any popularity contest since the seeds of truth planted from Father's Word most often make them very unpopular because they are consistent and people do not want to hear truth. The very elect seek popularity with "Father God who is Fair, and never changes since He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow." The very elect work hard to please Father as faithful servants, and this is why Father blesses His anointed ones.

Ecclesiastes 4:16 says, "[There is] no end of all the people, [even] of all that have been before them: they also that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit." Popularity is inconsistent because if you fail to hold on to whatever your state of admiration is or someone comes along with an inch up over you; replacement. Popular people are here today and gone tomorrow, another filling their shoes and this cycle just repeats itself over and over again. Trying to be and stay popular is the same as chasing and trying to catch the wind within your hands, and as for peace of mind, that is an obstacle which is kicked to the curb. Problem with that is, you just removed Father God from your life spirit as well. Good luck with your walk of survival in this flesh without Almighty God!~

The Book of Ecclesiastes

Ecclesiastes - Chapter 3

Ecclesiastes 3:1 says, "To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:" In the next "Verses", twenty-eight (means eternal life) times Solomon will say, "a time to" within fourteen (deliverance of salvation) phrases, giving both the positive and negative of the subject. Each of these expressions of teaching, a wise person understands there is a time and place for all things that occur and have the spiritual discernment to accept and act according to their spiritual purpose. As we walk in the flesh upon this earth, there is a season for all things. A year is divided into seasons; a twenty-four hour period of time has a day and a night. Christ Jesus will return to this earth as "King of kings and Lord of lords" during the season when the Seventh Trumpet sounds, and if you have bowed down and worshiped satan the anti-christ in his deception of our True Christ when he is cast to this earth for the great deception at the Sixth Trump, you will have been harvested out of season. So within these twenty-eight phrases, there is a negative and a positive, and a choice to be made by the "man who walks under the sun" as to how you will manage with each according to your spiritual self.

Ecclesiastes 3:2 says, "A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up [that which is] planted;" All souls must be born from above through a woman, your earthly Mother, and as well all souls born from above will pass away, leaving their flesh body and returning to the spiritual body. When a crop is planted, there is a harvest time in the proper season. Spiritually speaking, satan planted a crop of bad seed (Matthew 13:38 - 40) as is taught in the "Parable of the Tares (Matthew 13:36 - 43)" which has to do with his offspring the kenites, mixing in with the good seed planted, who are the very elect of Father God. What satan did was he planted tares (kenites) among the wheat (very elect) and went on his way, and our Father God declares there is a season for the harvest, and that reaping will separate the tares (kenites) from the wheat (very elect) as is taught in Revelation - Chapter 14.

Ecclesiastes 3:3 says, "A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;" There is a time for judicial punishment against our enemies and there is a time to restore and have peace of mind through Father God's direction. When you are down spiritually, physically, mentally or emotionally because of your enemies, there is a time to re-establish yourself by standing on the "Rock of our Foundation who is Christ Jesus." Spiritually, if you bow down and worship satan when he is cast to this earth as the first/false christ and do not recognize him for who he is before our True Christ returns, your flesh body shall be changed to a spiritual one with the return of Christ Jesus, however you will still be within your liable to die soul (mortal). As Christ reigns over the Millennial Kingdom teaching, if you accept His teachings and exalt Father God, not being deceived once more when satan is loosed for that short time, you will be lifted up to an immortal soul, in that this is the precious gift from Father God when you love Him above all else.

Ecclesiastes 3:4 says, "A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;" We grieve through the distresses and loss of our loved ones and rejoice when there is peace in understanding that absent from the body is present with our LORD. Spiritually, while you play church now, enjoying your earthly possessions, void of Father's Truths, you will weep and morn if you bow down in your Biblical ignorance, out of season, to the first false christ, who is satan, as you pray for rocks and mountains to fall upon you within your shame when our True Christ returns (Revelation 6:15 & 16) since you were harvested out of season and served the false christ. Blessed are those who shall be changed to their spiritual bodies at that same time, however with immortal souls in the "Day of our Lord" because they shall be at the side of Christ during the Millennial Kingdom teaching, resting from their labor while sharing His Truths, awaiting the Great White Throne Judgment with great joy. Luke - Chapter 6 is a great teaching on this subject.

Ecclesiastes 3:5 says, "A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;" You can embrace the "Rock of our Salvation who is Christ Jesus" or you can embrace the false rock who is satan, the anti-christ as is taught in Deuteronomy 32:30 & 31 because of Biblical illiteracy. When you partake of Christ Jesus you become a living stone within the Temple of Almighty God, Christ being the Chief Corner Stone of His temple. Christ is our foundation, the Rock that the churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia are built upon. Our Lord will return to this earth with a rod of iron, which is correction, before gathering His deceived children together for the discipline of the Millennial Kingdom teaching.

Ecclesiastes 3:6 says, "A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;" This is the time to seek out the truth of Father's Word while you are yet in your flesh body which brings about peace of mind as you secure your spiritual self, exalting Father God so that your soul is not blotted out, becoming a child of perdition as satan is and the fallen angels are. You want to watch and observe, keeping your guard up, building your gospel armor so you are able to "stand" against satan in his role as the first/false christ, and this is only possible by studying the Word of Father God, seeking the increase of understanding only He can give. When you have understanding of Father's Word, you throw away the doctrines and traditions the Biblically illiterate teach in their ignorance. Isaiah 55:6 & 7 says, "Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:" "Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon."

Ecclesiastes 3:7 says, "A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;" Christ Jesus rent that veil from top to bottom (Matthew - Chapter 27) when He sacrificed His Perfect Self on that cross at Calvary, opening salvation to all of humankind and you can now approach the Throne of Father God Almighty. This precious gift being given, do not let Biblically illiterate teachers with their false doctrines hunt your soul to cause it to rapture into the hands of satan as the first/false christ. It is their false doctrines that stitch pillows (spiritually speaking) that cover the truths of Father God's saving hands, and give a false sense of security to an unknowing person that they do not have to understand Truth since they will rapture away (Ezekiel 13:17 - 23). In order to share the Truths of Father's Word, there is a time be quiet and listen to ascertain what others lack in understanding so that when you teach, you are leading those listening to the pasture where our Shepherd, Christ Jesus is, and His Living Word reminds us of the promises of Father God when you have eyes to see and ears to hear.

Ecclesiastes 3:8 says, "A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace." Love righteousness and hate unrighteousness which is of satan, who is the enemy of Father God. In order to stand and do battle against the enemies of our Father God Almighty, it is necessary to have your gospel armor in place which is taught of in Ephesians 6:10 - 20. Remember, when satan is cast to this earth, he is not coming with horns and a pitchfork bringing damnation upon humankind. Rather he is coming as the first/false christ, an angel of the light (II Corinthians 11:12 - 14), imitating our True Christ since this is the only way he can cause the Biblically illiterate to follow him straight into his bed of harlotry (spiritually speaking). The vile one, satan, is not looking to bring death to your flesh body, he wants to bring death to your spiritual body. When you hear peace, peace, peace, satan is perpetrating his deception upon the whole earth (II Thessalonians 5:3) and it would be best for you to have your gospel armor in place ready to stand and battle against satan in this spiritual war.

Ecclesiastes 3:9 says, "What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth?" Ecclesiastes 3:10 says, "I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it." There is no satisfaction or peace for your soul by the work you perform and the pay you receive. Whether you are employed by a company or have your own business, your peace of mind comes when your work is in the "Name of Christ Jesus and to the Glory of Father God" who gives all that you do and receive meaning and provides the privilege of experiencing the joy of our Father's blessings (Colossians 3:17 & 23). When Father blesses, He expects to be blessed and the only way "man who walks under the sun" can bless Father God is by loving Him, studying His Word and understanding His Truths.

Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, "He hath made every [thing] beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end." Father God has made all things excellent in His seasons because He is in control of all things of Heaven and earth, and knows the appropriate time for His Perfect Plan to come to pass. To be a part of Father's plan, it is necessary to understand the Three Earth Ages (studying the Holy Bible), where you stood in the First Earth Age, what Father expects of you in this Flesh or Second Earth Age and earning your rightful place in the Third or Eternal Age, which is yet to come. We will never know all things of Father God, however He has given to all who seek, ask and knock understanding that He exists, infinitely, by the power of His works is as is taught in Romans 1:18 - 20. It is your choice as to whether you exist eternally with our Father or not.

Ecclesiastes 3:12 says, "I know that [there is] no good in them, but for [a man] to rejoice, and to do good in his life." Rejoice in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:4) to keep your mind steady to do good since that honors Father God and brings about your peace of mind. There is nothing you can do; work for, achieve or create that will bring you the joy Father God will and Father's love is Eternal.

Ecclesiastes 3:13 says, "And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it [is] the gift of God." Your accomplishments in the flesh are gifts from Father God to make your life easier so you have more time to exalt Him, study His Word and be a part of "His Perfect Plan." There is a purpose for all souls being born from above and to understand that purpose it is necessary to understand what "thus saith our LORD." Study to show yourself approved.

Ecclesiastes 3:14 says, "I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth [it], that [men] should fear before him." You can trust Father's Word and love (fear) Him for it because it will never change. It is the same yesterday, today and shall be tomorrow. People change Father's Word to suit their needs and that is to their own detriment. While no one knows the exact moment of Father's Perfect Plan, He has surely given humankind the season of when a time approaches, as for example, satan being cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception that shall ever be known to mankind. If you love Father, study His Word so you are useful to He who created you for His pleasure.

Ecclesiastes 3:15 says, "That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past." As we learned previously, that which has been shall be again since they are examples and types to help us understand that which has been shall happen again, as we now live. This is why it is necessary to study and understand Father's Word so your eyes are opened and you understand the mysteries that are revealed. As it happened in "The Beginning" so it shall be in "The End."

Ecclesiastes 3:16 says, "And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, [that] wickedness [was] there; and the place of righteousness, [that] iniquity [was] there." People most often allow their flesh to take precedence over their spiritual self, judging according to their standards and not Father's standards as it written in His Word. "The place of righteousness" is the "churches" and Father is not pleased with the sins taking place there. Upon the whole earth, Father is only pleased with the teachings of the churches likened to Philadelphia and Smyrna. The other five churches our LORD is not pleased with and if you are a member likened to one of those churches, Father is not pleased with you (Revelation - Chapters 2 & 3) and it is time to ask, seek and knock.

Ecclesiastes 3:17 says," I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for [there is] a time there for every purpose and for every work." There is a time for all things, a beginning and an end, and if you want to know the "Plan of Father God", study His Word and pray for that increase of understanding only He can give. Father God is fair and you are without excuse, therefore our LORD will judge according to your actions and all things are recorded in the Book of Life.

Ecclesiastes 3:18 says," I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts." "Manifest" means to "make known or test." An animal's flesh as the flesh of a human being when it passes away returns to the dust from which it came. What separates the animals from people is the mind that Father gave humankind, having the ability to think which means having the ability to study His Word. To love Father is to know Him and the only way to know our LORD is to study and show yourself approved so you will exalt Him and follow His teachings wherein you are not walking around with free will, rather under the will of Almighty God.

Ecclesiastes 3:19 says, "For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all [is] vanity." Ecclesiastes 3:20 says, "All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again." Animals and people are born into the flesh, eat, drink, sleep, breath the same oxygen and pass away, returning to the dust. The flesh is emptiness because it has no eternal life. Once it dies, that is it. It is the spiritual body of humankind that you awaken to salvation since that is the body our Father God created and will reside with Him through the Eternity. Animals have an excuse since they cannot serve Father, you can; you have no excuse.

Ecclesiastes 3:21 says, "Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?" We all have two bodies, the flesh and the spiritual one. When the flesh body passes away, it returns to the dust from which it came and the spiritual body returns to Father God who created it before this Flesh or Second Earth Age. There was a First Earth Age and all resided within that Heavenly Age within spirit bodies with our Father God (II Peter - Chapter 3).

Ecclesiastes 3:22 says, "Wherefore I perceive that [there is] nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his own works; for that [is] his portion: for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?" Enjoy the blessings Father God heaps upon you when you are His faithful servant while walking in the flesh. Father wants His children who are obedient to His Word, serving Him, to be happy, which you will when you understand His Truths, knowing that this is most definitely not all there is to it. The best is yet to come. And if you should be so blessed as to be alive in the flesh when satan is cast to this earth, if it is Father's will, you will stand against that son of perdition, death himself, and let the Spirit of Father God speak His marvelous truths through you because Father counted you as worthy. In any event, whatever Father has for His faithful very elect at that time to do, all of it is righteous, joyful and pleasing to our Father God. Study Father's Word to show yourself approved while living in your flesh body so you are happy and have peace of mind, which comes from "Christ Jesus, who is our Living Word and Rest, from the Throne of Almighty God."

The Book of Ecclesiastes

Ecclesiastes - Chapter 2

Ecclesiastes 2:1 says, "I said in mine heart, Go to now, I will prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and, behold, this also [is] vanity." "Mirth" means "gladness, joy, pleasure." Within his mind Solomon told himself I am king and decided that he was going to have a good time making merry, having fun, however after awhile that play-time lost its substance, meant nothing. There was nothing substantial to it and soon that feeling of emptiness (vanity) is felt and this is what happens when you cannot get pass the flesh, "the man that walks under the sun", that came from the dust and shall return to the dust.

Ecclesiastes 2:2 says, "I said of laughter, [It is] mad: and of mirth, What doeth it?" "Mad" means to boast, act like a fool." Acting like a fool, taking nothing seriously while you just let it all hang out as a good time charlie, is just plain emptiness.

Ecclesiastes 2:3 says, "I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what [was] that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life." Father said a little wine for the good of your stomach, your health, is fine (I Timothy 5:23), however he did not stay gallons and to the point of unreasonable intoxication. Drunkenness will certainly cause you to act as a fool, make foolish decisions and keep you on a path that leads to nothingness.

Ecclesiastes 2:4 says, "I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards:" Solomon is saying he had it all. His flesh being was lacking nothing when he looked at all his many, fine, expensive possessions.

Ecclesiastes 2:5 says, "I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all [kind of] fruits:" Ecclesiastes 2:6 says, "I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees:" "Gardens" means "paradise." Solomon tried to create and lavish himself in what he considered a paradise here on earth, within his flesh body, which is impossible. Everything Solomon had, all the great beauty was to satisfy the flesh. There is one Paradise and that is in Heaven and can only be created by our Father. Solomon had his own irrigation system to give his trees life; however he could not give himself life. There is only One Tree required to create great beauty, salvation, and He is our "Tree of Life, Christ Jesus" who is also our "Living Water." “The living fountains of water” is that nourishment for our souls, the “Living Water” received from our Shepherd, “Jesus Christ” which proceeds from the "Throne of Almighty God."

Ecclesiastes 2:7 says, "I got [me] servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me:" Solomon had what those before him dreamed about having. More servants, cattle, land then anyone ever had; yet, all his earthly possessions did not bring him happiness or peace of mind. Capturing and understanding life so that you are happy to be within these flesh bodies cannot be felt through possessions, it can only be felt through your spiritual relationship with Father God.

Ecclesiastes 2:8 says, "I gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces: I gat me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, [as] musical instruments, and that of all sorts." "Gathered" means "collected." "Gat" means "to acquire, to appoint." Solomon had the greatest of fine treasures and oh what a choir and orchestra. Lots of enchanting treasures, listening to some awesome voices and music oh so sweet, one would believe this would make him very happy. All Solomon had to do was lift his hand and whatever he wished was before him, and still it was emptiness because none of these pleasures brought him peace of mind. Hear and understand what Solomon is teaching. (lucifer who is satan the anti-christ, was wealthy by means of commerce and head of the choir in Heaven as well, and he surely has no peace of mind, however he does have the promise of death of the soul.)

Ecclesiastes 2:9 says, "So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem: also my wisdom remained with me." Solomon had many, many possessions, however his divine wisdom stayed with him in spite of these earthly things and this is why he is teaching and sharing these truths. He wants all to understand divine wisdom and not the wisdom of "the man who walks under the sun." This divine wisdom came to Solomon from Father God as is taught in I Kings 3:5 - 15, when Father asked Solomon what it was that he wanted most of all (ask what I shall give thee.) In responding, Solomon did not think of something for himself, he thought about his earthly father, just as we should think about our Heavenly Father always. He spoke with Father God from a humble heart and that is the same way that we should speak with Father, openly, honest and from a humble heart. Solomon was a young man sitting on the throne, a king over many people. He, as those just coming into understanding Father's Word, had the heart and mind of a child when it comes to understanding our LORD's truths. When Solomon answered Father as to what it was he wanted, he did not ask for anything for himself. He captured Father's heart when he asked for the wisdom to help and have an understanding heart toward others. This pleased Father in that he could have asked for many good things for himself, however he did not, Solomon asked Father to bless him to be a just (to act as a ruler, law-giver or judge or governor (of God) man. Father gifted Solomon with wisdom as no other has had, he a "man who walks under the sun (flesh body)." Father did this to bring forth His Word, which leads you to have peace of mind in this very troubled world we live in, that all who seek, ask and knock, will see the "Light, who is Christ Jesus, the Son of Father God Almighty" and not be lost in the darkness of satan. Our LORD added to the wisdom requested of Solomon all riches and long life as well "if" he walked the path of righteousness because he had humbled his heart before Father God. Solomon's meekness before Father God brought about his gift of divine wisdom, not the wisdom of the world which is emptiness. Having been told of receiving this gift, he did not wait to see if Almighty God would keep His promise, rather He accepted Father's Word with a trusting heart and immediately thanked our LORD by offering sacrifices. When you study the Word of Almighty God and understand His promises, claim them and thank our Father, acting according to His Will. Find peace of mind by gathering together, convening with Father God, asking Him for wisdom from a humble heart as you study "His Precious Word."

Ecclesiastes 2:10 says, "And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was my portion of all my labour." While you can find pleasure and enjoy your achievements, you cannot find peace of mind in those possessions you labored for here on this earth because these things are not eternal. Revelation 14:13 says, "And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed [are] the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them." This "labor" is your "righteous acts" while living in the flesh and this is the "work" that goes with your spiritual body to Heaven.

Ecclesiastes 2:11 says, "Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all [was] vanity and vexation of spirit, and [there was] no profit under the sun." All that you labor for while living in the flesh will surely fade away into the hands of another when your flesh body passes away. Only your spiritual works stay with you for all of Eternity. Also, even while you live within your flesh body, when you lie down at night and close your eyes for "rest", those possessions cannot do one thing to give you "peace." "Rest and peace of mind" comes by and from "Father God Almighty through Christ Jesus."

Ecclesiastes 2:12 says, "And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what [can] the man [do] that cometh after the king? [even] that which hath been already done." Take the time to meditate on divine wisdom versus earthly wisdom. This is to say, you work very hard in the flesh to achieve a great lifestyle, you pass away and all you owned goes into the hands of someone else, and there is not a thing you can do about it. All the nice things of earth are temporary. Divine wisdom and righteous acts are eternal.

Ecclesiastes 2:13 says, "Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness." It is better to understand things as they truly are than to fool yourself into believing a farce when you should accept and deal with whatever recklessness confronts you. Do not be a procrastinator or try to avoid issues as if they do not exist. You best meet them head on because they are not going anywhere. Show you have wisdom and seek Father God for divine guidance. You will surely need it when darkness, who is satan, the anti-christ, is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind.

Ecclesiastes 2:14 says, "The wise man's eyes [are] in his head; but the fool walketh in darkness: and I myself perceived also that one event happeneth to them all." The same thing happens to all people, be they the wisest or a fool, all shall pass away, or, be changed from a flesh to a spiritual body when Christ Jesus returns. Death does not discriminate and does not care about your status and what you have obtained in your flesh life. Father cares though. He cares as to whether or not you have righteous acts accomplished while in the flesh since these are the only treasures that will follow you to the Eternal Age; Heaven.

Ecclesiastes 2:15 says, "Then said I in my heart, As it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth even to me; and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart, that this also [is] vanity." Solomon was wise because he loved Father God and wanted to bring Him pleasure, which is the reason we were created as is taught in Revelation 4:11. It is necessary that your spiritual body have dominion over your flesh body so you are not removed from the path of righteousness. When you are consumed with achieving earthly treasures which brings about emptiness, you can be fairly sure your spiritual treasures are falling way short.

Ecclesiastes 2:16 says, "For [there is] no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool for ever; seeing that which now [is] in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dieth the wise [man]? as the fool." If you profess to be a wise person and leave Father God out of your life, you are no better than the fools who do not humble themselves before Father God, seeking wisdom. How wise can you be if you do nothing while living in the flesh to store up treasures for your eternal life in Heaven. If you turn your back or have no time for Father God while in the flesh, all that you have and accomplish is vanity, emptiness.

Ecclesiastes 2:17 says, "Therefore I hated life; because the work that is wrought under the sun [is] grievous unto me: for all [is] vanity and vexation of spirit." That is to say, therefore, there is not much pleasure in living in the flesh since it is a short life and ends too soon, and all the earthly possessions accomplished will not join your spiritual body when it returns to Heaven. Flesh is temporal and so are earthly possessions. Only Father God is Eternal.

Ecclesiastes 2:18 says, "Yea, I hated all my labour which I had taken under the sun: because I should leave it unto the man that shall be after me." When you have achieved many earthly things, there is always the worry of passing away and being concerned if the one who receives your earthly gain will respect and continue it as you have. The truth of the matter is, once you pass away, you will no longer care about what you left behind, who will get it and how it will be spent or taken care of. This is why, while you want to have comfort in your flesh life, your concern of treasures should be for your spiritual life because unlike earthly possessions, your righteous acts "do" follow you to Heaven.

Ecclesiastes 2:19 says, "And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise [man] or a fool? yet shall he have rule over all my labour wherein I have laboured, and wherein I have shewed myself wise under the sun." You have no idea really if you are leaving your earthly possessions to someone who has some sense or a downright fool when you pass away. The good thing about that is you really will not care once you have passed away and you should not care while you yet live. The treasures you want to be concerned about are the spiritual ones since they go with you to Heaven and no one gets a share of your works. Serve Father God while in the flesh and receive your rewards when returning to the Heavenly realm, in the presence of our LORD God Almighty.

Ecclesiastes 2:20 says, "Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair of all the labour which I took under the sun." People will bring depression upon themselves while they yet live worrying about who will get and what will be done with their earthly treasures.

Ecclesiastes 2:21 says, "For there is a man whose labour [is] in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not laboured therein shall he leave it [for] his portion. This also [is] vanity and a great evil." "Evil" means "calamity (disaster)." There are many who achieve much from their work while walking in the flesh, therefore leaving quite a bit of earthly treasures behind when they pass away. Then there is that lot of people who really tried very hard to stay on that road of what was needful for the flesh, therefore not having much to leave behind when they pass away. Fortunately, there are innumerable Heavenly rewards when you do not go against the oracles of Father God for the purpose of earthly gain, rather staying on that path that leads you straight into the outstretched arms of Father God who rewards endlessly when you have knowledge of and are a part of His Perfect plan.

Ecclesiastes 2:22 says, "For what hath man of all his labour, and of the vexation of his heart, wherein he hath laboured under the sun?" What difference does it make to all those "walking under the sun", flesh man, for all the work and frustration they went through while gaining their many earthly possessions, in the end; when death takes hold of their flesh body. When you pass away and they count up all your earthly accomplishments, what good thing will it do you? When you have true wisdom, you work and labor to receive blessings, rewards from Father God for being pleasing to Him while walking in the flesh, under His will while walking in the flesh, standing on the Rock of our Foundation, Christ Jesus, while living in the flesh, understanding and sharing His Good Gospel while living in the flesh, that your rewards shall be with you for all of the Eternity. "Bless the Name of our Father God Almighty, Faithful and True."

Ecclesiastes 2:23 says, "For all his days [are] sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity." Earthly gain causes you to work hard and worry hard. They make it, worry about keeping it, who may be watching it, or who is around the corner trying to take it from them and those waiting for their demise. Earthly possession cannot and will not bring you peace of mind. Only Father God Almighty can when you take hold and anchor your life in our Living Word who is Christ Jesus. Your spiritual body must have dominion over your flesh body and find peaceful rest in our Lord.

Ecclesiastes 2:24 says, "[There is] nothing better for a man, [than] that he should eat and drink, and [that] he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour. This also I saw, that it [was] from the hand of God." This is not a teaching of "the man who walks under the sun (flesh man)", this is teaching of your spiritual body, your very soul. There is only rest, peace of mind and many good things in your life when the "Mighty Hand of Almighty God is upon you." You can only be pleasing to Father when you do what is right and you can only do what is right when you study His Word and understand His Truths, seeking, asking and knocking for that increase of understanding in the Name of Christ Jesus, who is our Living Word. Father is our love, peace, rest, comfort, joy and wisdom.

Ecclesiastes 2:25 says," For who can eat, or who else can hasten [hereunto], more than I?" There is nothing that you can do right without including Father God. There is no obstacle you can overcome without including Father God. You cannot pull the wool over His eyes since Father knows and sees all things and wants you to come before Him humbly. No need to stumble around in darkness when Father has stretched out His arms to you.

Ecclesiastes 2:26 says, " For [God] giveth to a man that [is] good in his sight wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth travail, to gather and to heap up, that he may give to [him that is] good before God. This also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit." The "Hand of Father God" is upon all of His children who love Him, study and share His Word, standing on the Rock of our Foundation who is Christ Jesus. Storing your treasures in Heaven, pleasing Father God according to His Word, you can be assured that He will make your way better while walking under the sun within your flesh body. However if you chose to do it on your own, not respecting our Father God, more consumed with earthly pleasures, there will always be holes in your basket and obstacles in your path (vexation). Christ Jesus was born from above to be a Sacrifice for our sins, and while He was yet with us, showed us the way, the path, the truth, to Eternal life. As the very elect, having that wisdom only Father God can give, it is your duty to be pleasing to Father God and share your knowledge wherever it will be heard. Father God will surely bless you when you are a blessing to others. To those who are still void of Father's Truths sealed within your minds, spend some time with Christ Jesus, who is our Living Word and receive the blessings of Father God!~

The Book of Ecclesiastes

The "Book of Ecclesiastes" was written by the son of David, Solomon, "a gift" from Father God through the blessings of the Holy Spirit. This Book was written to "the man who walks under the sun", which is an expression that is speaking to "all who live in flesh bodies, humankind." Within this "Book", Solomon is speaking to himself, within his own mind, as well as teaching humankind how to live within our flesh bodies; receiving blessings from Father God, having joy in His love and peace of mind within our spirit self because of our Lord Jesus Christ. Living according to the instructions of this "Book of the Bible" will enhance our spiritual being as well since it will give a greater understanding as to the fact all souls born from above have two bodies, the flesh body, which this "Book" is about, and the spiritual body that lives within the flesh body. Solomon will teach as a pessimist (somebody who always expects the worst to happen), giving the bad side of something and as an optimist (somebody who tends to feel hopeful and positive about future outcomes), demonstrating the good side when you keep Father God a part of your life.  All souls are born from above within their flesh bodies for a purpose and that reason is to be in the service of Father God Almighty, who created humankind for His pleasure (Revelation 4:11), which ultimately instructs you of how to be happy while walking within your flesh body.

Ecclesiastes - Chapter 1

Ecclesiastes 1:1 says, "The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem." "Preacher" means "(to assemble, gather); a teacher of christian principles." This "Preacher (teacher)" is "Solomon."

Ecclesiastes 1:2 says, "Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all [is] vanity." "Vanity" means "emptiness; to act emptily, become vain, be vain - to cause to become vain - to fill with vain hope." The things of this world bring about emptiness since it cannot give you hope or peace of mind. Christ Jesus is our peace of mind.

Ecclesiastes 1:3 says, "What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun?" As you walk within your flesh body, an earthly person, and think about and accumulate earthly things through your labor, never meditating within your spiritual self with Father God, there is nothing but emptiness no matter how much you accumulate or participate in of earthly things.

Ecclesiastes 1:4 says, "[One] generation passeth away, and [another] generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever." Solomon is saying one generation is born and dies, along comes another generation born and dies, and another, over and over. Emptiness, as the generations repeat themselves over and over. This is why you want to look to our Father God Almighty, spiritually.

Ecclesiastes 1:5 says, "The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose." The sun follows its course within the sky, rising and setting as you watch it from your flesh body rising up in the morning from the east and setting down in the evening from the west, day after day, year after year, generation after generation. It simply does not change.

Ecclesiastes 1:6 says, "The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits." In the north the summer wind blows and brings warmth and in the winter, the wind comes to the south and brings about the cold. The winds, just as the sun, have their own course, the seasons always coming, winter, spring, summer and fall, over and over, generation after generation.

Ecclesiastes 1:7 says, "All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea [is] not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again." The seas shall not overflow even though the rivers continue to flow into them. It rains and the water flows into the river, emptying into the oceans and seas. Humidity builds and the waters evaporate from the seas and rises up to become rain once again and when the rains burst forth, they replenish the rivers, oceans and seas, once more and they will not overflow since the process will repeat itself over and over again, generation after generation.

Ecclesiastes 1:8 says, "All things [are] full of labour; man cannot utter [it]: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing." "Labour" means "to toil, work; grow weary." Looking at what is produced by humankind brings nothing but weariness and emptiness since the flesh is never satisfied, never grateful.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 says, "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." Each day is the same as the day before since the same things happen over and over again. Everything accomplished by people truly means nothing since Father God created the earth and there is nothing any individual can do or accomplish without doing so with the things our Father has created. Father God created the Heavens and the earth and knows all things, therefore while you should be happy with your own and others achievements, compare it to what our Father has accomplished, and you will then understand that all of your own and others achievements are emptiness, nothing.

Ecclesiastes 1:10 says, "Is there [any] thing whereof it may be said, See, this [is] new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us." Solomon is teaching that all things that have happened to individuals of this earth of long ago, even yesterday; shall happen again to other individuals as we now live. You are not a poor little, only me victim. There are no new ideas or courses that can happen to anyone that has not already happened to someone else. Within Father's Word are constant teachings of consequences suffered by those who disobeyed Him, as well as blessings upon those who obeyed Him. These teachings are examples for us as we now live. What is happening now as we live has happened in the past; good, bad and indifferent. As the First Earth Age came to an end, this Second Earth Age shall come to an end. Are you studying Father's Word to know what has happened and what shall happen again? The same deceptions and lies that came about in the First Earth Age shall come to pass in this Second Earth Age by the same master of deception, lucifer, who is satan, the anti-christ. "There is nothing new under the sun."

Ecclesiastes 1:11 says, "[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." "Things" should be "men - humankind, those who walk under the sun." Over and over, one generation comes and goes, followed by another generation. This is speaking of those who walk under the sun, flesh man. When the flesh dies, it is gone forever. Never forget however that when the flesh man dies, the spirit man returns to Father God in Heaven (II Corinthians 5:8).

Ecclesiastes 1:12 says, "I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem." Simply stated, Solomon is saying he was the king over Jerusalem (Father God's favorite place) and he had more than he could ever wish for in terms of earthly possessions and achievements; he was at the helm and he had it all.

Ecclesiastes 1:13 says, "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." Solomon is saying he desired to find and understand wisdom; to have peace of mind since he had everything and had done all there was to do from an earthly standpoint and still he is not happy.

Ecclesiastes 1:14 says, "I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all [is] vanity and vexation of spirit." Solomon is teaching that he has the best of everything and seen the best of everything flesh man could ever hope for, those physical things of life, and still it is meaninglessness since he still feels like he is chasing the wind, which cannot be caught.

Ecclesiastes 1:15 says, "[That which is] crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered." With flesh, being just a shell, it is impossible to understand certain things, many things, without the spirit of Father God that fills that shell of a person. As an example, you have a whole walnut that has not been broken, a shell. You crack it open wanting to eat the nut that should be within it and behold the shell is empty. Therefore, that shell neither had nor served any purpose.

Ecclesiastes 1:16 says, "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." Solomon is meditating on the fact that he is king, having accumulated great wealth, established unbeatable armies. He is meditating on the fact that he has demonstrated good judgment, has understanding of worldly things, no other flesh king before him having demonstrated such power and knowledge of earthly things.

Ecclesiastes 1:17 says, "And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit." "Wisdom" means "to have prudence and act wisely." "Madness" means "boastful, a fool." "Folly" means "to act or do foolishly." Solomon reveals that he acted with wisdom and he acted as a fool; doing both good and foolishly. In this he learned his behavior only brought about displeasure. That which walks under the sun, the flesh body, is very hard to please. He partied hardy, drank too much and received nothing from it except for a headache. Much of the things of this world bring about nothing but trouble because it is evil. The things of this world belong to satan, and it you are on his course, that means you have turned your back on Father God and I wish you well without the blessings of our LORD.

Ecclesiastes 1:18 says, "For in much wisdom [is] much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow." Wisdom sought for yourself or personal gratification of the earthly things will give you just what you asked for, nothing, emptiness. You are going to meet yourself with the same misery and problems over and over and over. Chasing that high of earthly things is the same as chasing the wind since ultimately you will never reach it or catch it. Keeping in mind the subject of this "Book of Ecclesiastes" is the flesh man, humankind that "walks under the sun", wisdom as Solomon is speaking about is of the flesh, wisdom of the world and the more earthly knowledge you grasp on to, the more trouble you bring upon yourself because the flesh is never pleased no matter how much pleasure you lavish upon it. Your aim is to work hard and make lots of money, exchanging time best spent with your family for the all mighty dollar. The pleasures of drugs, sodomy, adultery, same sex, watching a football game while your children roam the streets of confusion or spend time romping on facebook, that endless list of worldly familiarity, brings about the destruction and breakdown of the mind, health, loved ones and family members. Wisdom and knowledge of the world may seem pleasing to the flesh, however rest assured it will bring sorrow and destruction in the end. Solomon is teaching that personal satisfaction, pleasing the flesh, will not be found within knowledge or wisdom of the searthly things since all wisdom and knowledge comes from Father God Almighty, and He is most assuredly "Spiritual." The greatest high you can ever hope for is spiritually through Father God Almighty who will freely give it when you ask, seek and knock through Christ Jesus.

"!EMMANUEL! - !GOD! with Us"

“December 25th”, a most “High and Holy Day” in the hearts and minds of all those of humankind who understand the “love of our Father God for His children.” For on that day, “Christ Jesus” was conceived, an embryo, life, within the womb of Mary. “Conceive” is “Strong’s Concordance Greek Word No. 4815” which means, “to conceive, of a woman”, from “Strong’s Concordance Greek Word No. 4862” which means “with.” Matthew 1:23 says, “Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name “Emmanuel”, which being interpreted is, “God with us.” “Emmanuel” which means “God with us” or “with us is God”, is the “symbolic and prophetic name of our Messiah, the Christ, prophesying that He would be born of a virgin and would be God with us.” Therefore, Christ Jesus was not born on December 25th, but was within the womb of Mary on that day, “with” us as the “Son of man”, His birth taking place on “September 29th”, which is the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles. This is not speculation, rather, truth, for Father God’s Word teaches and brings forth truth when you have eyes to see and ears to hear, understanding what “thus saith our LORD.”

Luke 1:5 says, “There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife [was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name [was] Elisabeth.” “Zacharias” means “remembered of YAHOVAH.” “Aaron” means “light-bringer”, and he was head of the entire priestly order. “Elisabeth” means “oath of God.” “Abia {Abijah}”, means, “my father is YAHOVAH.” Zacharias was a priest, which means he was “the head of a priestly family from whom when David divided the priests into 24 classes, Abia was the 8th order [I Chronicles 24:10].” The number “eight” in Biblical Numerics means “new birth, new creation, new beginnings.” “The course of Abia” was a feast that took place, according to our solar calendar, from June 13th to June 19th {Sivan 12th to 18th}. As Father’s Word teaches us the dates of Christ Jesus’ conception and His birth, you want to keep the aforementioned feast timeframe within your mind. Zacharias was far from his home, at the Temple of Father God, fulfilling his priestly duties to our LORD.

Luke 1:6 says, “And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.” Zacharias and Elizabeth were “observing the divine laws of Father God” and this is why He chose them to proclaim the birth of Christ Jesus through John. Most often we are a spoiled and ungrateful children before our Father God whose only Begotten Son gave of His life for our sins, that we may come before our LORD and repent in prayer, without the need of the many sacrifices offered before His coming as was required by the Levitical laws. Father God declares Zacharias and Elizabeth were both “righteous, blameless”, worthy, as they met all the obligations of the priesthood daily, demonstrating their true love and faithfulness to our LORD God Almighty. Their way was not easy as it is for us today, yet, how many take the time to truly observe Father’s so precious love for us as He gave a path to repentance and forgiveness, sacrificing His Beloved Son, that we may come before Him each day without the labor of that which those before Christ endured.

Luke 1:7 says, “And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were [now] well stricken in years.” Elizabeth, in her youth, was unable to conceive a child, and now, she and her husband are, as we know it, elder, beyond the normal age for childbearing. However, when you are a part of the plan of Father God, all things are possible.

Luke 1:8 says, “And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,” This gives us a timeframe, Zacharias serving within the Temple of Father God, righteous, faithful, in all of his ways, during the course of Abia.

Luke 1:9 says, “According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.” Zacharias was doing all good things required by our Father God precisely as instructed, everything right and in order. As he burned the incense all of the people would gather outside of the temple, repenting of their sins before Father God, seeking His blessings as the smoke would rise from this Holy place. The burning of the incense, the smoke rising, a very sacred time, was symbolic of all prayers being heard by Almighty God and the children surely needed to see for belief. Keeping in mind the subject of this study, it also offers an exactness of the seed planting and birth of Christ Jesus.

Luke 1:10 says, “And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.” This should be so easily understood as these people are not much different from those claiming to be christians today, having that need to see, feel and touch. These people gathered around the temple depending on the smoke, as so-called christians today depend on their pulpit gurus, for reassurance that their prayers are being heard, that Father is listening. All you have to do is take Father God at His Word, demonstrating faith as you ask, seek and knock and stop looking for a specific sign or person to show what Father has already promised and given; if you have eyes to see and ears to hear.

Luke 1:11 & 12 says, “And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.” “And when Zacharias saw [him], he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.” What Zacharias is experiencing would be a normal reaction for anyone who is a part of a supernatural act or spirit being truly of our Father God. Certainly there is no doubt angels exist as we are taught in Matthew 18:10 which says, “Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.” When you are under the will of Father God, His angels protect, according to His will. Some will teach this is a common occurrence, angels appearing as this one, Gabriel, before the eyes of Zacharias, and they are contrary to the Word of Father God since this is not often spoken of within His Word. You best be sure that if the Holy Spirit of Father God speaks to you, it would be so overwhelming, so filling, the last thing on your mind would be telling someone because the words would not be there. Your spirit, heart and mind would be communing with Father God, weakened in the joy of His love.

Luke 1:13 says, “But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.” “John” means “YAHOVAH is a gracious giver.” Zacharias and Elizabeth are beyond childbearing years, so this child is a “gift” from Father God, given through His messenger, the angel Gabriel. Father named this child Himself. He shall be the prophet, John the Baptist. When you are a part of the plan of Almighty God there is no need to be afraid of any good thing pertaining to our Father who hears all prayers, knowing what we think and feel, giving what is needed, required, as all things come to pass according to His will.

Luke 1:14 & 15 says, “And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.” “For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.” You should have “joy and gladness” as well since this "Verse" should shed light on the fact that a fetus is a living, breathing life belonging to Father God, as He recognizes John, as he is yet within his mother’s womb, being “filled with the Holy Spirit.” For those who think, teach, believe, or what have you, that a child is not a human being until a particular month or even crying into the world, hear what the Word of Almighty God declares. This one, John, will not be playing church as a drunkard filled with wine, wondering and participating in babble and confusion as those calling themselves christians do. He will be about our Father’s business, chosen to do the will of Almighty God.

Luke 1:16 & 17 says, “And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.” “And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.” John the Baptist shall be the predecessor of Christ Jesus as he teaches the true Word of Father God, turning those with ears to hear and eyes to see away from the world and to the truth with understanding, as to what “thus saith our LORD.” John shall come before Christ, just as Elijah did, having that same “spirit and power”, in the service of Almighty God, as His plan for humankind unfolds. Malachi 4:5 & 6 says, “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:” “And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.” As Elijah, John shall be teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ and not the doctrines and traditions of men. If you understand the teachings of Elijah and John the Baptist, your mind and heart will be drawn away from false doctrines that rapture you into the arms of the false/fake christ [satan] with that great deception that shall come upon the whole earth at the appointed time. If you listen to the teachings of these prophets, judging the tree by its fruit, you will not waste another Sunday, Wednesday, Saturday, whatever day you warm the pew of a house of lies, harlotry, babble and confusion because you will be too busy thanking Father God and His Beloved Son, Christ Jesus, as you study and build your gospel armor. Following the Christ-like path, nurturing yourself spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally on Father’s so precious Word, seeking truth only He can give when you ask, seek and knock, is what captivates your soul unto Him. Christ Jesus came into the world, being born of woman, the First Advent, and He shall return again soon, the Second Advent, when every knee shall bow to Him and every tongue confess Father God Almighty.

Luke 1:18 says, “And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.” Zacharias was questioning Father, which we should never do. “Whereby shall I know this”, is the same as saying, “How do I know this is true.” Our flesh speaks when it should be quiet and thankful. It is understood that Zacharias and Elizabeth were beyond childbearing years, however, all things are possible through Father God and when you are obedient, there is no room for doubt or unfaithfulness because that relinquishes being in spiritual contact with Father. As with Mary, young, having no husband, Elizabeth, the opposite, married, but beyond childbearing years, by different means of divine intervention, each woman shall conceive a child, our Lord Jesus Christ and John the Baptist.

Luke 1:19 says, “And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.” “Gabriel” means “man of God” and how happy he is “to bring good news {tidings}” to Zacharias, who was having trouble believing what he was hearing. Church houses are filled daily with those calling themselves christians who have trouble believing truth when it taught. Just as Gabriel was happy to “stand in the presence of God”, so shall there be joy in our hearts to be a part of the mighty plan of Father God. There is only one way to know what that plan is, rejoicing within it, sharing “glad tidings”, and that is by knowing what “thus saith our Lord”, which comes by studying the pure Word of Father God seeking knowledge that is divine because it is a “gift” from Almighty God. In understanding the purpose of the gifts of Father God, you come to the understanding that it is for the purpose of and to be prepared for the Day of our Lord, being the Second Advent of Christ Jesus, which is yet to come.

Luke 1:20 says, “And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.” “Ask, and you shall receive.” Zacharias wanted a sign from Father God that what Gabriel spoke was truth and so he received a sign. Not a word would come from his lips until after the prophet, John, would be born. For the next nine months, Zacharias, a priest, his duties requiring him to speak, will be speechless. Never doubt Father God. “Nine” in Biblical Numerics means “Fruit of the spirit, divine completeness from the LORD.” The “season” shall follow the “The Feast of Tabernacles, the course of Abia”, which shall end on June 19th {18th Sivan}. Zacharias’ speechlessness is a direct result of not having a discerning spirit and the faith to accept those things unseen. When you are chosen from before the foundation of this world, from the First Earth Age, being a servant in the service of our LORD with your mind, heart, having hands that labor for Father God, there is a path that is to be followed and never questioned. All that is needed to do the will of Almighty God is given, that being “His gift”, making a way for the fulfillment of His plan.

Luke 1:21 & 22 says, “And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.” “And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.” All of the people were gathered outside of the temple, the smoke of the incense rising to Father God as prayers were being offered for forgiveness, comfort, healing, seeking those things needed, all of the same things we pray, talk with our Father God about today, daily, when you are in love with He who created you for His good pleasure. There they waited for Zacharias, a man of God, a high priest, to speak to them. He is their teacher and they “wondered {marvelled}” why it was taking so long for the burning of the incense and Zacharias coming out of the temple to pray with them. Finally appearing, he could not speak from his mouth, so he gestured with his hands, motioning to them, the people believing he had fallen asleep and had a vision. He did not physically fall asleep, however spiritually he did take a nap, not believing, when he should have been rejoicing, his faith and belief in jubilation, for that is the peace of your spirit, when you understand truth and believe. This does not mean there will not be hard times as we live in this flesh, however faith, hope, trust, and most of all love for Father God and His Beloved Son, when you are studying His Word, preparing each day for those things yet to come, knowing you are a part of the mighty plan of Father God, will bring you a peace within your spirit those playing church will never understand.

Luke 1:23 says, “And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.” “Ministration” means “a service or ministry of the priests relative to the prayers and sacrifices offered to God”, for Zacharias, this being the “course of Abia”, the “eighth {new birth, new creation, new beginning}” order of the feast days. Once again, according to our calendar, from June 13th to June 19th {Sivan 12th to 18th}, Zacharias’ service to our Father God, which was at the temple in Jerusalem, ending on the eve of June 19th, sunset on a Friday, as all “ministrations” did, there being 24 of them [IChronicles – Chapter 24], he then returned to his home which was in Nazareth of Galilee, at least thirty miles for him to travel. Keep in mind, Zacharias was not a young man, “well stricken in years”, unable to travel the distance in one day, rather, “three {resurrection, divine completeness and perfection}” days, arriving home on June 23rd, having left on the 20th, the 19th a Sabbath day, so he would not have been permitted to take his journey on that day. These dates are very important in understanding the time of the conception of Christ Jesus and the date of His birth. When Zacharias arrived home, he knew {sexually} his wife.

Luke 1:24 & 25 says, “And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,” “Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on [me], to take away my reproach among men.” Just as Gabriel had announced to Zacharias, he knew his wife on the first day of his arrival home, “after those days of travel”, as Father God had ordained. She “hid herself five {grace or God’s goodness} months” because that was the will of Father God, she knowing something beautiful had occurred that people would not understand, her having previously being “barren and stricken in years.” When Father God gives a gift, you will not shout it in a hallelujah corner, rather, you will be within your closet in prayer, your soul communing with our LORD, peaceful within your spirit. This time of silence for Elizabeth, five months, would now be November 24th. You can be sure she had much to speak with Father God about, having prayed many times for children, feeling “shame {reproach}” never having conceived because a woman is expected to have children. Genesis 30:23 says, “And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach:” When you are a part of the plan of Almighty God, all things shall occur at the appointed time, according to His will. Not all women shall have children and this is just the way Father wants it since He has a purpose for all of His children, especially His very elect.

Luke 1:26 & 27 says, “And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,” “To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name [was] Mary.” “Galilee”, when taken back to its prime, means, “roll away.” There will come a time when a stone shall be “rolled away” after the crucifixion of Christ Jesus. “Nazareth” means “the guarded one.” “Espoused” means “to be promised in marriage, be betrothed, engaged.” “Joseph” means “let him add, YAHOVAH has added.” “Mary” means “rebellion.” The first female within this Flesh or Second Earth Age was named by Adam and he called her “woman.” Her name was later changed to “Eve” after her “rebellious” act within the Garden of Eden, in that satan deceived her. In the "New Testament" comes “Mary {rebellion}”, who shall “bring forth the Beloved Son of Almighty God.” Understand that she was chosen before the foundation of the Flesh or Second Earth Age. Mary responded, “be it unto me according to thy {Father God} word.” She contradicted “the rebellion {deception}” within the Garden of Eden, restoring a voice of belief in Father God, “His will be done in all things.” Mary was chosen to bring forth the “Life of Father God, Christ Jesus, our Living Word” to this earth, the seed planted within each and every child “Father God has created, His Word”, when you have eyes to see and ears to hear what “thus saith our LORD.” As we continue on with this marvelous teaching, John the Baptist is now “six {weakness of man, evils of satan, manifestation of sin} months” within the womb of Elizabeth, another thirty days added, we are now at December 24th. Jewish days begin at sundown the day prior into sundown the next day. Our calendar changes at midnight, however in this time we are studying, it was from sunset to sunset. Therefore, Gabriel came unto Mary on our eve of December 23rd, with glad tidings that she was chosen to bring forth a “perfect Child, Christ Jesus, our Messiah.” That “wondrous” seed planted within her womb on our December 25th {1st of Tebeth}, sundown of the 24th in that day, Christ Jesus now dwelling with mankind, six months separating John the Baptist from our Lord Jesus Christ. Once a seed of life is planted within the womb of a woman, from the very second, this is a child, a human being, dispelling the myth that a child is not a living being until is reaches a particular stage of life within the womb or at birth. Father God’s Word is not to be compromised. This is what “thus saith our LORD.” This does not dispel our celebrating “Christ on December 25th” since this is the day that “Father God, through His Beloved Son”, came to dwell with mankind. Be it understood, once the soul and spirit enters into the embryo within the womb, the time of conception, this is life and this is what each and every human being upon the whole earth should be celebrating.

Luke 1:28 & 29 says, “And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, [thou that art] highly favoured, the Lord [is] with thee: blessed [art] thou among women.” “And when she saw [him], she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.” Isaiah 7:14 says, “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Father God’s prophecy is being fulfilled, coming to life. While Mary was blessed in that she was chosen to bring forth Christ Jesus, she is not to be praised, for our Lord Jesus Christ teaches and instructs us on how we should pray to our Father God, for only He is worthy to be praised, beginning at Luke 11:2 & Matthew 6:9 . When you are chosen before the foundation of this Flesh or Second Earth Age to be in the service of Father God, as Mary, you do not question His Word, lacking faith or belief, you seek understanding “through His Word.” It is a blessing to be called “chosen”, and Mary as the very elect of this time, wanted to understand that which Gabriel spoke.

Luke 1:30 & 31 says, “And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.” “And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.” “JESUS” means “YAHOVAH is salvation - Jesus, the Son of God, the Saviour of mankind, God incarnate.” “YAHOVAH” means “the existing One, I AM THAT I AM”, as is taught in Exodus 3:14 , which says, “And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.” “By the blessings of Father God Almighty, Christ Jesus, Emmanuel, is our Savior.”

Luke 1:32 & 33 says, “He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:” “And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.” Mary is being told that she will give birth to our “Savior of the world” and all of humankind will look to “Christ Jesus for salvation.” “He is the Beloved Son of Father God Almighty, and Christ Jesus shall be our King of kings and Lord of lords for all of Eternity.” The “birth of Christ Jesus is the First Advent” and “He came as Messiah.” When “Christ Jesus” returns at the “Seventh Trump” to this world, the “Second Advent”, He shall come with a “rod of iron”, which is “discipline”, and every knee shall bow to Him and every tongue, including satan, shall confess our “Father God Almighty”, as “Christ Jesus takes” his seat on the “throne of David”, where He shall reign forever as “King of kings and Lord of lords.”

Luke 1:34 says, “Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?” Mary is not showing a lack of faith, questioning or doubting our Father God as Zacharias did. She is merely seeking understanding of the natural order of things, knowing how Adam knew his wife and it being so down through the generations. She had never laid with a man and is confused as to how Christ Jesus would be born through her. Father God is Creator of Heaven and earth. He spoke and nothing became everything and formed Adam from the dust of the earth, from his rib creating Eve. All things belong to Father and He created all which exists, seen and unseen. This birth shall be by “Divine Intervention” through the Holy Spirit and Mary is about to come unto that understanding. If you claim to love Father God, there should never be any doubt that our salvation is based upon the “Divine Birth of Christ Jesus”, who is “Perfect”, and shed His blood on that cross, an “Unblemished Sacrifice” for you and me, all of humankind who believe with a pure heart.

Luke 1:35 says, “And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.” Father God is fulfilling His promise of Genesis 3:15 which says, “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” This teaches us that Christ Jesus shall be born of woman and shall shed His flesh at the hands of the kenites, the children of satan. The prophets foretold all throughout the "Old Testament" of the coming of “Messiah, Jesus Christ.” Father God gives us a most “Precious Gift”, a depth of love so deep it can never be measured as our “Redeemer” comes to free us from the bonds of sin that bind and could bring destruction [satan] of souls. He is a “Devine Child” of our “Most High Father God” through the blessing of the “Holy Spirit.”

Luke 1:36 & 37 says, “And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.” “For with God nothing shall be impossible.” Mary asked the question and received the answer. Elizabeth is with child, by the divine intervention of Father God, understanding her circumstance, being six months within her pregnancy, John the Baptist within her womb. Mary, by this same divine intervention, shall carry Christ Jesus within her womb, Father God planting His seed on December 25th. All things are possible with Father God and He proves His power and might over and over if you have eyes to see and ears to hear. Father’s Word is complete and as we have clearly learned, John the Baptist was a forerunner for Christ Jesus, teaching us the exact time of His birth, John being born in the Spring and Yeshuah, Christ Jesus, Emmanuel, born in the fall, six months later, being September 29th, the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles. It would not have been in the winter since there were shepherds with their flocks, and sheep would not be grazing on frozen ground bearing no grass. Also, the greedy tax collectors would not have been stealing from the people at an inconvenient time, travelling from house to house in frigid weather, when they could more comfortably embezzle during the comfortable seasons.

Luke 1:38 says, “And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.” Mary, understanding the will of Father God, she being in His service, chosen before the foundation of this Flesh or Second Earth Age, accepted her commission faithfully and happy to be in the service of our LORD. This is how it should be with all of Father’s children. We are to bring Him pleasure and if you do not know Father God and His Beloved Son, Christ Jesus, bringing Him happiness would be a difficult task. Father God will intercede within the lives of His chosen children, however not within the lives of those who have free will. You must ask, seek Father and with faithful study you can overcome the stand you took within the First Earth Age, whether it was one of straddling the fence, not standing with Father or satan, or standing with satan. Many ask how they know if they are chosen of Father God and the answer is simple. When you hear “Truth”, you recognize it and are drawn to study, because you just cannot get enough of what “thus saith our LORD.”

As for “Christmas Day”, here again is choice. You can worship Father God, thanking Him for Christ Jesus, “Emmanuel, God with us”, or, you can prance and dance with santa claus.

Look at his name, being santa, scramble, and you have satan. Would not satan just love to take your eyes off of Christ Jesus on this most Holy Day, especially knowing we are in the end days, the "Book of Revelation" being revealed each and every day concerning the “Generation of the Fig Tree.” Continuing on, there is claus. The claus process is the most significant gas desulfurizing process, recovering elemental sulfur from gaseous hydrogen sulfide . First invented over 100 years ago, the claus process has become the industry standard. The multi-step process recovers sulfur from the gaseous hydrogen sulfide found in raw natural gas and from the by-product gases containing hydrogen sulfide derived from refining “ crude oil” and other industrial processes. The final step involves oxidation of the hydrogen sulfide. There is no need to read between the lines here.

I was raised within a “home”, not a house or a building. There was a lot of love surrounding myself and my siblings. Our Mother was a true matriarch and was not ashamed of her love for Father God and Christ Jesus, surrounding herself in feverish prayer with the sweet quietness of the Holy Spirit. We were raised to love Father with all of our might, to pray faithfully and to do our best to follow the path Christ Jesus taught. As children, we celebrated holidays, Christmas Day being very special within our home throughout the years, even as adults. The aromas of wonderful foods permeating the warmth of our abode, a beautiful tree, and many, many gifts my Mother struggled hard to provide for us. However, there were no toys and fun before Father God and Christ Jesus. Our day, as everyday, began with prayer, each child, from the time you were able to formulate a sentence, speaking to Father God. We knew those toys and good things were just that, things, and not the true meaning of “Christmas Day.” My Mother, her name was Mary and she was a rebellious woman. Her spirit was a sweet, kind and loving one, but if you pushed, Mother stood her ground. Prayer was her forte and you could feel the love for Father God with each word she spoke, see it on her face while in silent prayer. Mother rebelled against any who did not give Father God all the praise and glory, never ashamed to set you right if you presented yourself wrong. A Mother raises her children in the ways of our LORD, the responsibility as adults, becoming our own. In this way, it is a choice as to which road you take in life, knowing there is more than one. Father God gave us Mothers and Dads to love their children as He loves all of His children, each and every soul. As children of Father God, until this day, we celebrate “Christ Jesus at Christmas.” Yes, we had/have fun, share, care and love one another and the people around us, and it so very easy because it was a natural part of our growing years, our daily lives. Father God created us for His pleasure and we are made in His likeness, so surely He wants us to have pleasure within this life.

However, when a BlackBerry is priority over teaching your children of Christ Jesus, there is a very serious problem within your household. What families did fifty years ago cannot be duplicated today because we are now living within the Fig Tree Generation, the last generation and Christ Jesus will not delay His coming, and all need to be ready. Slew-footed satan shall be cast to this earth first and if you are not versed within Father’s Word, you will think that gift-bearing fool is our True Christ Jesus. That vile creature, death himself will be your santa claus “if” you are not studying Father’s Word to understand those events that shall consummate the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age. Christ Jesus came to be with us on “Christmas Day” to bring us salvation. He rode on that lowly ass and was sacrificed for our sins, “Perfect”, in all of His ways during Passover. There is a day coming when Christ Jesus shall return to us, however it will not be on a lowly ass. He will be coming with a “rod of iron {discipline}”, and every knee shall bow before Him as every tongue confesses Father God Almighty, and there will be a one thousand year teaching as this world has never known. I believe any who truly want to know and understand our Father’s Word, asking, seeking and knocking, it will be given because Father wishes none of His children to be dull, void of His Truths. As you celebrate "Christ"mas, cherish our “YAHOVAH Father God” and “Yeshua Christ Jesus”, bruising "Them" {spiritually speaking} with your prayers and love, teaching your children and anyone who will listen, giving them a grand example to follow, of how precious “Christmas Day” is and what it means. “Father God gave us a Gift of His Beloved Son, so everyday is Christmas. Father God and Christ Jesus, by the blessing of the Holy Spirit, is with us every second, never leaving us. People come and go. Father God is loving, kind, faithful and merciful. I pray you are giving our LORD a gift of love everyday. Christ Jesus is the Reason for the Season! Amen, Amen {That’s That}!”
