So Where Is City On a Hill ? Parts 1 and 2

 

A few of us have been through this Christian divorce game. John Stevens had an awful time pioneering this new epidemic with Grenville Harding , one of UKs extraordinary Christian orchestral composers . They weren't married to each other !!! LOL.

I seriously think we have under estimated two huge sources of friction.

Now the Bible in the early days warned us of being yoked with unbelievers.

Well blow me down , each blooming level in Christ is having fallout .

50 years ago we were having this new trend of evangelicals divorcing their now baptised in the Spirit spouses.

Now as we go Romans 6 to 8, a fresh load of spouses are kicking up.

Not just spouses.....each Spirit door we go through, whole churches can split.

Can Two dwell together?

Well in Jesus Christ the Father and the Spirit , yes . They are the real Source High in the Third Heavens . Inside the psalm 91 Shadow of the Most High we can walk together .

This is called seeing with a single eye .

That's one course of friction .

Then we come to Surrounded by idiots book, 1 Corinthians 12:14-26, and the 4 Woods Tabernacles realm.....of the comely leadery organised tree

The productive Mark type palm tree

The Sturdy Oak type vast ancient to modern knowledgeable Luke tree

The willow , burden carrying ....Germans say Last Traeger tree or intercessor tree .

I fiercely defend the willow tree as not always being sad and mopey. In the choleric , sanguine, pragmatic group they are called melancholic ....

But I can assure you psalm 126 describes what happens after the pain and burden bearing, when the breakthrough comes .

Like Benny Hinn, having been baptised in the Spirit with fire ,I wanted everybody to have this . Both of us spent huge amounts of teenage time on our own , in my case because my parents were marking books at night , and my brother didn't want much to do with my born again beliefs .

But my twenties were a fantastic release as we saw churches move secondlevel . So , no , once we see God bringing breakthrough , we aren't just mopey willow trees .

That's my present confidence that when God said to me in 1988 or so " there's a whole other level yet ", and a few months later I learned 60 year missionary leader Norman Grubb had written Yes IAm , Chapter 31, On Now to the Third level , I thought......I'm not going mad .....God really audibly said that in the Old egg farm area of Winsley House on Thorney Island near where I am now in Hampshire UK.

So we have two sets of friction points.....

Legacy Christian , born again Christian , Spirit filled Christian and Union believing or father stage of growth believer. 1 John 2 only really starts at the born again, welcoming in stage, kind of John chapter 3.

Then we have the fact that all four frequencies of Matthews Marks Lukes and Johns wind each other up . Until they are mature!!!!

So perhaps we should be honest....

I take this spouse to have and to hold providing they stay at the same believing stage as me , and providing they are the same quartile as me , and when they make a change, we will divorce, cut our combined wealth in two , shred the kids in two so they never ever come to Jesus , and put pressure on the housing system by demanding two homes instead of one. I do.

Because as we all know Jesus being Lord of everything , could never sort our niche problems.

This is currently true right across society, after Tavistock Institute have divided nations, and it's also true of all the silly little pyramid rabbi church synagogues lining our high streets proclaiming the powerlessness of Jesus in every place.
