I recently was asked to explain, in more detail, the difference in God/Elohim and Elohim/Plural God. I believe that this is the perfect time and study to do this. We are studying The Renewing of the Mind, and in this study we will be able to see WHEN and WHERE the mind fell into natural thinking, and the consequence of this "fall". It will also help us to understand why God of the Old Testament, is sometimes seen, by many, as a vengeful and sometimes "mean" God: when we KNOW that God is a loving, faithful and caring God.

As I have always asked, PLEASE take your bible and go along in it, with this study. BUT, most of all, go within and allow His truth to rise in you, either giving conformation or not giving conformation. We are in a time, when the FIRSTFRUITS are coming forth. God has ALWAYS used a Firstfruits Company to show His movings. ALL have the seed of the Firstfruits within them, but, as with every move of God's plan to manifest, there is and has always had a multitude that would not open themselves to the opening of that seed. I want to make it clear, God DID NOT just one day say, "well I think I will make Mary, and Linda, and Marlend and Dianne, and John, and Paul, Firstfruits, because I love them more than the others". No, God is no respector or persons. He gave to each one of us, HIS FULLNESS. (John 1:16)

John 1:16, "And of his fullness have ALL we received ..." Because of the mind falling, it is more difficult for many to believe this, and they allow it to leave their mind. But, there are those who will open themselves, WITHOUT FEAR to recieve this declaration.

Fear is what keeps people from accepting the Truth of God. Fear of what others will say; fear of what their pastors or teachers will say; fear of what the family will think of them; all this is fear. Fear makes us unstable and because of the fear we will , sometimes purposely, refuse to move beyond where we are. But I believe that when Jesus ask the man to leave all and follow Him, the all includes the caring of what others would think. And when you think of it, that is exactly how Jesus was. He loved everyone, but He could care less what folks said about Him and what He taught. He took what He was shown and made it His life. The man that He spoke to, made an excuse about why he could not follow Jesus, right now. He had to go take care of his dad, first. Well friends, there is nothing new under the sun. Today people make excuses to NOT go beyond where they are, for fear that someone might think that they might be falling into a cult, or false teachings, or for whatever their own fear is. So, God does what He has always done, moves right on to one that has no fear and depends on that precious Spirit that they are, to guide them. So, from people like that, come into being, the Firstfruits.

Romans 8:22-23, " For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until NOW, and not only they, but ourselves also, WHICH HAVE THE FIRSTFRUITS OF THE SPIRIT , even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body."

We ALL have the Firstfruits seed. And , unlike the majority believe, it is up TO US, to water that seed and be a part of it's manifestation in completeness. Most think that GOD is going to do it, but, HE IS NOT. His work is finished. (Gen. 2:2, John 17:5). And He did not give us His fullness to just lay dormant in us while we wait on HIM to REDO His work. It is time that we awaken from the dream of one day, He will just wham, zap us perfect, because PERFECT is the way He sees us now. From the beginning , this is how He has seen us. And for this reason, I want to go into a little more depth of understanding God and the Lord God.

So looking at the Lord God, I want to show it was with the Lord God, us=the Plural God, that the changing of the mind, from God's Mind, began falling.

If you will, read Genesis 1:29-31, , "And God/Elohim said, behold I have given you every herb bearing see, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding see: to you it shall be for meat. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. And God/Elohim saw every thing that he had made, and behold , it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Now notice, Genesis 2:2, "And on the seventh day GOD ENDED HIS WORK WHICH HE HAD MADE; AND HE RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORK WHICH HE HAD MADE."

It is VITAL that we understand this. Lay aside all RELIGEOUS thinking that you may have had. Take what you will gain understanding on, regarding God going to do anything else for us. HIS WORK IS FINISHED. (Jesus also tells us the same thing in John 17:5 I won't write this out, but turn to it and read it). This DOES NOT say that God just stopped and rested on the seventh day, so that He could start all over again and clean up the mess that WE the Lord God made (which we will be looking at the Lord God, a little further on in this study

. NO! It says that He ENDED HIS WORK. And while you are thinking, ask yourself, "why did He give me all of His fullness"?

This word "ended" in Strong's is #H3615; to end, to cease, be finished, perish, to complete,prepare, consume, accomplish, cease, determine, destroy, done, end of, expire, leave off, bring to pass, make clean riddance, spend, quite take away, waste.

To me, this is telling me that when God stopped, ended His work, He did just that. And this certainly takes all religion out of the picture. Religion is as much a part of this illusion that we have been living, as the illusion itself. It is like when you show someone that "the devil" has been destroyed, they actually get mad at you!! When you tell someone that we do not HAVE to did, they get really upset with you. You're tearing apart their "vision" of heaven and hell. If you show them without reason, that the devil has been destroyed, you do away with their "someone to blame for all the SIN (that they believe in) ". When you awaken to the truth that the devil (carnal mind) has been destroyed, that puts the load square on YOUR shoulders!! So folks try to deceive THEMSELVES by saying, that is not of God, that is not the truth of God. They had rather believe that there is a being , out there somewhere, with as much power as their God and Creator. This cannot and will not continue!!

The Firstfruits will SHOW it is not true. And none will escape from the truth.

Now the thing I want most for you to recognize, is that God/Elohim, AFTER He had created, looked at ALL that He created and it was VERY GOOD. That's what it says, does it not? Now I ask you to lay aside all religiion, and all teaching that you have received in the past. IF that religion and teaching, was of Him, it won't leave you. You can pick it up, after you study this study out. OK? Start RIGHT NOW; right where God has created all that He created. And let it be seen that all of it was very good.

Ok we see here in Genesis one, that the TREES, that He created, and notice, it says, EVERY TREE, "vs 29, I have given YOU......every tree, in the which (the word "is" was added by translators, so omit it) the fruit of a tree yeilding seed: TO YOU IT SHALL BE FOR MEAT." Of course, we know that "meat" is knowledge. Do you read of any "tree of the knowledge of good and EVIL"? No. It is not there. The trees that God created and then looked back on (in vs 31) saw that these trees were VERY GOOD.

Please understand that "trees" are symbolic. These are not literal trees. Trees represent man, and attitudes. And as the scripture says, there is a natural and a Spiritual, in everything.

Ok, we see Who created these trees and how He saw, considered, these trees after He had created them. Now, with God NOTHING changes that He creats. We are told that all that He creates is PERFECT. ( Duet. 32:4 ). And we know that God had a plan, BEFORE He created anything. So, let's keep these things in mind.

Duet. 32:4, " He is the Rock, his work is perfect........" "He is the same, today, tomorrow and FOREVER." His work came OUT FROM WITHIN HIM. His creation IS HIM. His creation may come forth in many different forms, but the form does not change the fact of what the form really is. There is no "evil" in God. So evil did not come out of God. Think about it. It was ALL, very good.

 

Are we in agreement, so far? I hope so. It is all there for us to see. PERFECTION cannot be changed!!! Only THOUGHTS about PERFECTION can change. Darkness cannot enter into Light. Light enters into darkness and causes the darkness to become light.

So, we have seen God creating. We have seen what God thought of ALL that He had created. And we have seen that after planning His plan; and after creating the things of His plan, GOD ENDED HIS WORK. WE HAVE SEEN THIS, it cannot be denied.

So in the next part, we are going to look at WHERE, WHO and HOW everything began it's changing, or the thinking that they changed. And remember, we are looking at the RE-newing of the Mind. This IS THE FIRST MIND THAT MAN HAD. MAN CAME FORTH IN THE IMAGE OF GOD/ELOHIM.

to be continued......

It is understandable for a child to be afraid of the dark; but, why would an adult be afraid of the LIGHT?
