My calling does involve previous friends but it is unique too .
I had a friend called Rod Nixon who needled me .
At 12 on a school ski trip 4 of us were in a room , and he confronted my dead modern Methodism .
" But are you born again? ".
It obviously got me to question everything and I became atheist for a year .
Perhaps he felt some responsibility , but without let up he tried to get me to a new youth outreach set of meetings in Amersham on the hill .
I succumbed and heard the gospel properly at two Billy Graham films .
Then Graham Brooker who was older encouraged me about baptism in water . Methodists get baptised as infants and the Methodist ministry was unequivocal about that .
I searched the scriptures and there it was ...believe , get Baptised in water to acknowledge our death in Christ .
Then possibly Graham or others at Outset club in Chesham Bois encouraged me to be there in April at a teach in day at a family's house on baptism in the Spirit and evangelism .....which is by the way , the context in which the disciples were trained .
So I was Baptised in the Spirit with fire .
But that wouldn't have happened without a sequence through Rod Nixon , my Mum , Graham Brooker who lived up my road , the Lucases whose house was given over for the day , and others like Lola Audsell , an on fire 29yearold lover of Jesus who returned to NZ and Lower Hut.
Yes God came into my bedroom at 16.
Yes God came uniquely outside in a farm area of Winsley House property of Emsworth church around 1988 and said there was a whole other level yet . Within a year Pat Mace had bought a book for me by Norman Grubb whose 31st chapter reads On Now to the Third level , which 20 years later on the Hebrew Day of the Third Door 080808 became my blog ......but even that came through Lydia Shatney , and some artwork she had used that day on her blog .
My calling has been shaped like Albert Louis Tucker through the raw power of God manifesting for a brief window , but through teaching that Page Prewitt and Brian Coatney were giving in Fairmile Court Cobham , put on by Barbara Rogerson .
I slip through the cracks because like Paul Trulin to Morris Cerullo I'm identified with the power of God and the 2nd Anointing of Jerusalem Gate 11 and the Double Portion of the Ephraim ....so I love people like Todd Bentley who are like St Peter ....gloriously out there walking on water ....but like Paul Trulin more a teaching ministry imparting Galatians 2.20......I'm one generation further on that Morris and Paul , and I would change the American Christ in us gospel to the more radical Romans 6 and 7 , Colossians 3.3 , Romans 12..1 version of AS and in my form ......or as Nancy Gilmore stated ....on location for God .
I'm walking with a good healthy set of negatives ....like Elijah with Baal Priests ....but I think the whole church world wide is also as prophesied in our Holy book . I was writing this morning again querying how Preterists claim AD 70 as all important considering we are living prophecy right now ?
Like all of us ....some of our testimony is direct encounter ....some is God through friends .
Looking at my life humanly my life means nothing , yet in a certain frequency registered on my 4 1/4 million read blog it's meaning something to somebody .
Jesus must have felt really weird on the Cross. It appeared humanly that everything had been for nothing and now even the sense of His Father wasn't there either .
But these are but states and not the reality .
I'm a tuner . Paul was a tentmaker . Jesus was a carpenter house builder .
Tuning is a pernickety fiddly trade as opposed to Rodney Howard Browne who is a Matthew Lion face builder .
Did you know the 12 apostles were totally different from one another .
The American idea contains two heresies .
That Apostles have to be Type A Bull in a China shop Lion faces
Secondly that we are preaching Jesus in us with the Genesis 3 emphasis on Us
The gospel in the Bible is Four Woods
We are preaching a Noah's Boat rescue mission having three storeys , or 3 stages of growth in 1 John 2 .
You may have noticed we have 4 deliberate gospels including a Matthew Rodney Howard Browne one .
And a John Eagle Face , Bill Johnson , Kris Vallotten , Rick Joyner one
But there's also a Mark Dave and Patricia Lage one
And Luke one . Who's your favourite Luke ? Dave Pawson . I'd suggest John MacArthur and John Piper but they shred the whole of the New Testament to do with the Holy Spirit , which is a flesh trait of Luke's and their babies.....seminaries and the rabbi synagogues that they have built all over the earth . Tribe of Dan was called the Snake in the Way , so I'm assuming they have a high flesh Luke content .
As an apostolic piano tuner , developed direct by Jesus through a whole plethora of ministries , I have to look on the whole church and say these things are missing .
If we fall in the ground and die we nolonger dwell alone and God raises us up as co fruitbearing plants
Exhibit A B C and D
The apostles .....completely different personalities
Caldey Island Brethren from Wales ....everywhere they went as the group of Holy Spirit brothers God had made them , revival fell . Particularly Britanny through to Brusges .
Most great conferences but we are really short of thirdlevellers so they get burned out travelling . In fact Watchman Nee was told to do some prison intercession instead .
Graham Pulkingham and the Fisherfolk headed off in the right direction and would eventually have been a thirdlevel operation but they were POINTERS TOWARDS a relational group of ministries without the usual American names in lights .
Working within the Faith exhortational field , love em or hate em so were Kenneth Copeland , Creflo , Jessie and Jerry Savelle and Gloria .
Morris Cerullo was an ' organised ' version of what Jesus built organically by living with 12. Schools of ministry packed with a whole array of ministry achieved more in 3 days than years elsewhere .
Morris is right . People must have an experience of God . Then you allow the Holy Spirit to build you out from there .
Love em or hate em also .....stripping away heavy shepherding and pyramid building .....Fort Lauderdale and The London house church 70s groups plus the early living in the Spirit material of Ann Arbor Catholic brothers including Ralph Martin Bert Ghezzi and forgive my memory ....the other guys ..........all this was a secondlevel preparation zone .
Remember , as Ern Baxter pointed out , David had three successive phases .....Ziklag , Hebron and Jerusalem .
Thankfully Bill Johnson and Chris Welch are not David . Jesus is David , the greater David , running a Melchizedek operation in phases .
We just weren't expecting the third phase or thirdlevel to be quite as messy as the Jerusalem water ducts .
In other words Survivors Jeanette Archer , Arkheim Ra , Rachel Vaughan , Max Lowen , Svali , Cathy O Brien ,, investigator Fritz Springmeier , Nathan Reynolds and 50Voicesdotorg have a whole load of ' water ducts ' type Information that the world church needs to learn up on really fast or become even more irrelevant to the actual work of God in the earth .
Feast of Tabernacles has Four Woods to represent the Living Beings frequencies required in a self building ecclesia .
Self building ?
Oh yes , you never read Ephesians 4 then ?
The Body builds itself up in love , joined by that which each joint supplies when it is working properly .
So the context is .....Four Woods . 1 Corinthians 12: 14-26......reading each other correctly .....read the secular book .....Surrounded by Idiots ....Thomas Erikson......and a proper three stage gospel .
1 John 1 describes the blueprint of ecclesia ....
12 preprepared relational ministries like Jacob's sons in the Old Testament rollout .......
All having an " Abide in Me , know the truth , truth sets free " testimony , now ministering together out of the same fellowship with the Father ....walking in Light
So ofcourse building Light on a Hill , City on a Hill .
So what this tuner is saying is .....and remember I walk into a room with virtually any piano in most conditions ....and wrestle down 220 rebellious strings .....in octaves of 12 semitones ....yes , there's a correlation ....and by the authority bestowed upon me ....get normally out of tune pianos perfect in one hour , sometimes less and 90 minutes to 120 minutes if it's a car crash left untuned for years .
Now I appreciate strings are not human beings .....
But I seem to know something Charismatics are not getting hold of ......
Homeostasis. Strings have a kind of homeo stasis in that there's all sorts of subtle vibrations we are listening to relationally .....but strings don't tune themselves and they don't tune each other .
But our own bodies do ....and Martin Felt says there are 24 parallel systems in the body that tune each other sending chemicals and signals all over the place .
In the Body under One Head this is true also .
So we have an on earth resident tuner called the Holy Spirit . We receive the Spirit in new birth and we must be Baptised in the Spirit to operate as priests functionally and practice using the powers of the age to come .
Here's where the Jerusalem Gates are really interesting in Book of Nehemiah . Gate One is the Sheep Gate . We enter through the Lamb and we become Sheep or disciples .
Now this is interesting isn't it ?
Watch carefully .
The first church , somehow , operated as 12 Apostles with no jostling . ( Like Joel 2 says ).
And there were already 120 who had had 42 months of Word from Jesus but at a bit more distance .
Some stayed on in Jerusalem or were already inhabitants. So there's a CORE THERE .
PLUS .....THESE WERE JEWS WITH 2000 YEARS HISTORY .
They didn't read Tarot cards .They didn't have sex with a woman two hours after meeting her and gone by the next morning . So it's not like any other church ever formed .
Nevertheless it's incredible that 12 people held one church of all personality types , rich , poor , illiterate slave ,,wealthy Barnabas , you name it .....all at different stages in the 1 John 2 stages of growth across one city .
And they went from house to house in a kind of pastoral role .
Now put that together with Ephesians 4.11....the fivefold plus there are two more lists .....Romans 12:6-8 and 1 Corinthians 12: 27-28......
We have to watch the Spirit here .....
So we have seen some evangelist gift and pastor gifts being exercised .
So what I am saying is we have just seen 2000 years of the use of solo pastor figures ...call them priests , vicars , pastors .....whatever ....
And in the wisdom of God we have seen some of the work of God happen in the nations which is approximately equivalent to the first 5 gates of Jerusalem
Gate 2.Fish Gate .....excited testimony fishing in more people
Gate 3 Old Gate ......bedding people in basic doctrines that Jews would have known
Gate 4 Valley Gate .....humbling as people start learning life off the Pride Platform of Genesis 3
Gate 5 Dung Gate ....chucking out loads of former lifestyle aspects
So may be that's why Anglicans and Catholics and Orthodox have been allowed to get away with their pyramid scaffolding for so long even though it's nothing to do with the definition of ecclesia , but it's a whole layered controlled flesh structure .
The 1900s saw baptism in the Spirit getting going properly again and this God has now included into evangelism just as the 3 Kingdom keys always were : repent ,be baptised and be filled with the Spirit ..
Baptism in the Spirit and then teaching about flowing in the Spirit and proper church instructions 1 Corinthians 11 to 14. Ephesians 4. Mark 16.
This is surely Gate 6 the Fountain Gate and Gate 7 the Water Gate ?
So , when working at scale over billions now ,of people maybe God has allowed these SHEEP GATE BASICS to be taught through solo ministries until the world faith level has risen enough to get to proper Holy Spirit Church, because remember it's nolonger the Fathers turn .
It's nolonger the Sons turn to have a ministry .
It's the work of the Holy Spirit to prepare the Bride for her husband.
I was born into the Jesus Move . It was a privilege .
First it was sovereign revival , though not as prominent as the 50s and 80s Argentina ones , or Kenya one .
Second we were baptised in the Spirit and tasting early versions of house to house ecclesia.
It was in these last decades that evangelism changed back to normal with people being converted and Baptised in the Spirit .
Yet it has to be said I've argued with Jesus about why it's taken 1950 years to get back towards proper ecclesia .....and even now we have pastoresia everywhere sprinkled with worship bands .
Homeostasis can't work until the third stage of the gospel is entered into .....or else everybody will just be like Job's friends with each other .
It's a work of grace . Equipping . Deliverance . And coming right off the Genesis 3 platform which is a lie from start to finish .
So yes .......tuning pianos is dead tricky because strings don't tune each other. I have to .
But I can yank strings around and they don't walk away from the piano . They are covenantally aligned in the factory with the tuning pins one end and the bridge and hitch pins at the other.
People can walk off . But the advantage is , in the Holy Spirit we can tune each other .In the flesh as Jobs friends it's awful . It isn't easy in the Spirit because people are so attached to wrong spirits , or the ministries are not seeing accurately enough .
How many thirdlevellers are there anyway ?
It's difficult because we can't get near pastor dominated pyramids to know exactly .
God tells us to prophesy to the Breath to come from the Four Winds . Ezekiel 37.
We need FOUR WOODS MINISTRIES FOR A TABERNACLES ROOF WITH HOLES ECCLESIA, LIKE THE CHURCHES IN THE BIBLE .
PAUL COULD CONFRONT APOSTLES .
If we try Emsworth Church and Havant Church just kick you out or tell you you can't ever speak again .
We need proper ecclesia for an ecclesia Jerusalem water ducts job.
