THE TRINITY OF
POWER/AUTHORITY ON THE EARTH
For 6,000 years a trinity has prevailed upon and even over this earth, including over the church, the kingdom of heaven, for the last 2,000 years. This trinity is the trinity of power or authority on the earth under Satan and fallen man.
We have noted that the 2,000 swine Legion entered into, and thereupon all went to into the sea of death, are a type of the church that has gone to death for 2,000 years. Let us briefly look further at this.
During Bible times, a legion was a Roman army unit of 6,000 men. So, when Yahshua asked the unclean spirit in the possessed man what his name was—and you can be most certain this would be prophetic—he answered, “Legion” (Luke 8:30). What then could this mean? The answer is in the math.
When
Yahshua came to this earth, He came at the very end of 4,000 years from
Creation. So we ask a most
important question here: Who has
had authority over this earth since the fall of man? This answer is in the law. In Exodus 21:2, we read that a Hebrew
could be placed into slavery for six years, but in the seventh year he had to
be set free. In like manner, ever
since the fall of man in the Garden, for 6,000 years Satan has had the
authority to rule over him and this earth.
This is particularly evidenced in that he and the nations had the
authority to kill the Son of God.
Pilate said to Yahshua just before His crucifixion, “Do
You not know that I have authority to release You, and
I have authority to crucify You?” But Yahshua answered, “You
would have no authority over Me, unless it had been
given you from above” (John 19:10-11).
This is the authority Satan was given and has possessed, whereupon in Yahshua’s temptation in the wilderness he could offer Him “all the kingdoms of the world.” Satan declared to Him, “I will give You all this domain and its glory; for it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I wish” (Luke 4:5-6). Thus we see that he is “the ruler of this world” (John 12:31, 14:30, and 16:11), even “the god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4), and “the prince of the power of the air” (Ephesians 2:2). The totality of his control is summarized in 1 John 5:19, which concludes, "the whole world lies in the evil one," and in Revelation 12:9, he "deceives the whole world."
So, when the demons said they were 6,000, they were in fact making a legal statement as to their rights to 6,000 years. How do we know this for certain? Again, it is in the math. Yahshua came at the end of 4,000 years; so that left 2,000 years remaining for Satan. Thus, He was in fact early; and this was precisely the response of the demons. They asked Him, “Have You come here to torment us before the time?” (Matthew 8:29.) What would that time be? Clearly, that would be the seventh-day Millennial Reign when Satan no longer has the authority to enslave man, and is bound (Revelation 20:2). Therefore, when Legion (6,000) at 4,000 years asked to go into the 2,000 swine, he was in fact seeking and receiving affirmation that he would get the remaining 2,000 years—giving him the right to complete his rule, and take even kingdom man to death. Kingdom man would thereupon be cut off from the kingdom here on this earth and die.
So
we now ask: What is the trinity of
power during Satan’s 6,000 years whereby man rules upon this earth? There are three major sources of power
in the world, and they follow the 1 & 2 – 3 trinity of God. That trinity of power is:
Government & Money
– Religion
The
first, government, is of course man’s civil government. Second, the power of money is
particularly evidenced today in the entire banking system, including those that
print money, such as the Federal Reserve.
Of course 1 & 2 are always alike, and government and the banking
system work in concert as well.
Even so, #1, government, rules over #2, banking. The reason politicians love government
is their power to control money. It
is written, “The love of money is the root of all evils” (1 Timothy 6:10). Money is not the root, as we see here,
but the love of it; and government provides that root. The predominant motivation in government
today is the ability to control and obtain money—both affording power.
Religion
is the third-part power on the earth.
It indeed influences the former two, but the reality is that civil
government and money have far more influence on and over religion. One example of this is what we have
already seen, in that government had the authority to kill the Son of God. Under Satan’s and fallen man’s order,
government has the authority to rule over religion. Muslims have made efforts to alter this
so that religion is preeminent, and that is indeed what needs to take
place. However, as in all the
efforts of man up to now, it results in corruption and death.
So,
how is it that religion needs to become preeminent and be for good? There is only one answer. When Immanuel comes to this earth to
rule and reign, this trinity via fallen man that has been in effect for 6,000
years, has to be changed. So, one
might then ask: If religion is to
rule and be first, does the trinity laid out above simply reverse course, as we
see here?
Religion – Money
& Government
No. Keep in mind, in a 1 & 2 – 3
trinity, 1 & 2 are alike, they
are one. So for religion to
be first, the 3 moves to the first position, while the 1 & 2 remain in
their order, in effect becoming 3 – 1 & 2. But with 3 becoming first, we see a new
trinity, one we have not addressed yet, now with the order, 1 – 2 &
3. Thus we see the following
essential change in the trinity of world power:
Religion – Government
& Money
What
has been accomplished here? First, religion
now rules. If this had been the
trinity in place 2,000 years ago when Yahshua came, He could have set up His
throne, and government could not have killed Him. But this was not the case, and
government had a legal right to rule over Him. But when Immanuel comes in the seventh
day, He will have the authority to rule and Satan will be bound. He will be King of kings, and will have
the legal right to reign over all the governments of man throughout the world. And note again, this was not possible before
the seventh day. (And let it also
be noted that when all men enter into immortality, this trinity will no longer
exist, for it is only for man in his earthly state.)
What
else do we see taking place here?
Let us ask: Has the order of
the trinity of world power we have known for 6,000 years, been the pure order
or a cursed order? Obviously, it
has been a cursed order, cursed ever since the corruption of the Garden when
God once walked with man. Before
the fall, there was the trinity:
Religion – Government & Money. That being the case, how can Yahweh God
now remove the curse on man and the world and restore that momentary original
trinity? Introduced for the first
time ever in The Revelation of the Millennium,
page 3, we see that He has to split the
present trinity and flip it.
(Remember, split hooves can make an animal clean [Leviticus 11:3].)
If
you read that writing, you will see the example where Israel blessed Ephraim
and Manasseh by crossing his right and left hands when blessing the two. In that manner he flipped their order,
making the first last and the last first.
He had to do this, for in having an Egyptian mother they were
unclean. We already saw this
uncleanness in Judah’s three sons, and clearly see the same with the like union
of Abram and the Egyptian, Hagar.
Their son, Ishmael, was not acceptable to Yahweh because he too was a mix. This was the same state of the two sons
of Joseph. Therefore, Yahweh had to
split them and flip them, which He did when Israel crossed his hands for the
blessing. This is the same thing He
has to do with man’s 1 & 2 – 3 power trinity. To make it clean, He has to split it and
flip it. Therefore, 1 & 2
– 3 has to become 3 – 1 & 2, or in fact the restored 1 –
2 & 3.
Do
we see Yahweh elsewhere performing the same split and flip of this 1 & 2
– 3 trinity? Indeed so. Addressed in Making Cain Clean, we find the example
of three whom you have
undoubtedly heard of:
Shem,
Ham, and Japheth
This specific order is
exclusively used when identifying these three brothers, occurring six times in
the Scriptures. However, based on
Genesis 5:32 and 11:10, Genesis 10:21 is best translated, “Japheth the
elder.” Also, Genesis 9:24
explicitly states that Ham is the youngest. Therefore, their true birth order was:
Japheth,
Shem, and Ham
So
we see the same thing, but in reverse, where the first (Japheth) was made last,
again without changing the order of the other two.
Later
we see yet another birth order that is split and flipped, but here according to
what we have been seeing whereby the last becomes first. During the captivity in Egypt, Amram,
the grandson of Levi, fathered three children. In their birth order, they were:
Miriam, Aaron, and Moses
Miriam
was unique in that she was a prophetess (Exodus 15:20), and she arranged for
Moses to be nursed by his mother.
However, the flip is most obvious, as Moses became the greater of the three.
Moses, Miriam, and Aaron
Of
course as a woman, she could not govern or be in the priesthood, as was
Aaron. It is interesting that their
death order was once again Miriam, Aaron, and Moses.
Furthermore,
we have already seen the trinity of the three feasts:
Passover & Pentecost
– Tabernacles
However,
addressed in The Revelation of the Millennium,
page 4, we see that at Creation, Tabernacles
was actually first. In fact,
Creation took place in the month of Trumpets/Tabernacles. But, that first place was
later evidenced to have been changed when the sons of Israel came out of
Egypt and were told that Passover was the beginning of the months (Exodus
12:2). However, in truth this
change took place in the Garden with the fall of man. Today as we enter the Millennial Reign,
as addressed in that writing He has to flip the feasts in order to make them
clean—thereupon restoring Tabernacles to being first. Thus we see the same essential split and
flip:
Tabernacles – Passover
& Pentecost
Also,
noted in The New Millennial Calendar,
when Tabernacles became last, its outcome became death! Just as death has prevailed since the
Garden, when the sons of Israel tried to enter into the Promised Land at
Tabernacles, instead of bringing life it brought failure and death! And this has been the same outcome by
moving religion to last—it meant death to the Sons of Israel, it meant
death to the Son of God, and it has meant death to the first 2,000 years of the
church that have been cut off and have equally died. (More can be read about this
significance regarding Tabernacles at The Revelation of the Millennium,
page 5.)
Therefore
we see that two trinities were changed, even corrupted, at the fall in the
Garden:
Religion – Government
& Money
Became
Government & Money
– Religion
And
Tabernacles – Passover
& Pentecost
Became
Passover & Pentecost
– Tabernacles
Given
what is being addressed here, please allow me to make some personal comments
and assessments. Since June, 1994, for almost eighteen years I have pursued the
outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the latter rain, which is critical for
preparing the way for Immanuel—as critical as the overshadowing of the
Spirit was to Mary in bringing forth Yahshua. The hope of that fulfillment began with
Pentecost of 1995. Many times since
then we have had hope for this.
Soon it became obvious that the latter rain could not come at Pentecost,
for that feast had already been fulfilled with the first Remnant, producing the
leavened period the church has known for 2,000 years (two leavened
loaves). In 2003 we held all things
in common from Passover, through a delayed Passover, and to Pentecost. In 2005 we saw the necessity of adding a
Pentecost to Tabernacles, which you can read about by clicking
here.
But still, there has been no latter rain. In December,
2009, I wrote a piece titled How to Untie a Donkey,
examining not only what we have done
and learned through this quest, but what might yet be necessary in order to
obtain it. The fact is that we have
been lead through many intercessions in pursuit of the latter rain, and I do
not regret any of these or the price that has been paid since 1994. Intercessions are always of value,
providing authority and gaining vital understanding.
With all of this, at this time I have no certainty
how and when the latter rain will come.
It is in Yahweh’s hands. But
through all of this, one thing seems clear and quite evident: that the period of the establishment and
work of the Bride will be a two-year period that will take place from Trumpets/Tabernacles to Trumpets/Tabernacles,
the completion thereof bringing the catching up of the Bride. When
those two years will take place is to be seen. But with Passover and
Pentecost—the first two like parts of the feast trinity—beginning
the Bride and the Body, it will be third-part Trumpets/Tabernacles that
completes the Bride.
As testified by the sons of Israel, the first
Remnant entered the Promised Land, the kingdom of heaven, at Passover with
Yahshua’s death. And the attempt at
entering that same land by the Israelites at Trumpets/Tabernacles that failed,
must today give way to success.
Here are four reasons why.
First, when the sons of Israel came up to the
Promised Land that first time at Trumpets/Atonement/Tabernacles, it was in fact
at a Jubilee. Jubilee occurs after
a count of forty-nine years, with the fiftieth year being Jubilee. Jubilee is when each returns to his own
property, and each returns to his own family (Leviticus 25:8-10). If you count fifty
Jubilee waiting periods from Creation (or, 50 x 49 years), that comes out to
2,450 years. This would be a
Jubilee, or even a Pentecost, of Jubilee waiting periods. Quite significantly, that count is
exactly when the sons of Israel came up to the Promised Land at
Tabernacles. Thus, 2,450 years
following the Creation would mean, potentially, that a trumpet would have been
blown at Atonement and Jubilee declared!
What is this telling us? It
tells us that when the Bride enters into the Promised Land—into immortal,
born-from-above bodies—at a Trumpets, we will
have our Jubilee. We will return to
the property we lost 6,000 years ago, and be united with our first Remnant
family.
Related to this is the second reason for a
fulfilling two-year Trumpets/Tabernacles to Trumpets/Tabernacles second Remnant
period. We just noted the testimony
of a trumpet being blown at Atonement to mark a Jubilee. The only other feast day where a trumpet
is blown is, of course, Trumpets, which precedes Atonement and
Tabernacles. Getting to the point,
in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 we read that a trumpet is blown, initiating the
ascension of the second Remnant, who meet the resurrected first Remnant in the
air (Resurrection
and Judgment, page 5). This
blast of a trumpet at the Bride’s ascension, and the feast of Trumpets with its
like blast, as well as the blast of a trumpet at Jubilee on Atonement, all
coalesce into this one common event.
Therefore, since the Remnant ascends at Trumpets, and since they have a
two-year ministry period, obviously this necessitates the initiation at
Trumpets/Tabernacles, and the fulfillment at Trumpets/Tabernacles.
The third significant consideration is the testimony
regarding the two ways to enter into the Promised Land: through Passover, or through
Trumpets/Tabernacles. You will
notice that Passover requires a baptism into death—entering through the
Jordan River. But there was no
baptism into death at the Tabernacles entrance—no river. The first-bird (Leviticus 14:1-7) first
Remnant had to die, so they made the Passover entrance. But the second-bird second Remnant does
not die but ascends alive, thus there is no river baptism at the Tabernacles
entrance.
Fourth, the first Remnant breached at Tabernacles
when Stephen was stoned, ending a year-and-a-half ministry period. It would thus be most fitting for the
second Remnant to then pick up at Tabernacles to complete the remaining two
years of the covenant with the many.
So what is the requirement for us today in this
seventh day? That we believe and
obey, even as it is specifically and relevantly written in
Hebrews 3:18-19 and 4:1, 4-11:
And to whom did He swear that they
would not enter His rest, but to those who were disobedient? So
we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief. Therefore, let us fear if, while a
promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come
short of it.
For He has said somewhere concerning
the seventh day [the Millennial Reign]: “And God rested on the
seventh day from all His works”; and again in this passage, “They
shall not enter My rest.” Therefore, since it remains for some to
enter it, and those who formerly had good news preached to them failed to enter
because of disobedience, He again fixes a certain day, “Today,” saying through
David after so long a time just as has been said before, “Today if you hear His voice,
do not harden your hearts.” For if Joshua had
given them rest, He would not have spoken of another day after that. So there remains a Sabbath [seventh-day]
rest for the people of God. For the
one who has entered His rest has himself also rested
from his works, as God did from His.
Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will
fall, through following the same example of
disobedience.
I
know this can be a personal injunction to enter His rest on a daily, even moment by moment basis.
But, obviously there is more to this in that it refers more specifically
to the seventh-day Millennial Reign.
Thus, the greatest fulfillment of this rest is the Bride’s entrance into
heaven at Trumpets/Tabernacles to receive their immortal, incorruptible bodies,
and to return with Immanuel to rule and reign with Him in the promised
seventh-day Millennial rest. That is the hope and anticipation we
rightfully have at this transition period from the sixth to the seventh day, as
well as with the amazing truth we are now seeing—things that have never
before been seen.
With
this transition, we will see the essential and long awaited reversal of the
curse that came upon man at the fall in the Garden, whereby:
Passover & Pentecost
– Tabernacles
Will
be restored to
Tabernacles – Passover
& Pentecost
And
Government & Money
– Religion
Will
be restored to
Religion – Government
& Money
Oh
for these wonderful and essential changes!
