Sounds and Shulammites



39 years ago some of us heard a sound, some heard it live, some heard it on tape(yup remember those?). That sound was of thousands of male church leaders, or shepherds, getting a glimpse of just how vast and how all encompassing was the victory that Jesus won, both on the cross, and ofcourse as He stepped out of the tomb, then subsequently ascended into glory. Yes, there were thousands of male voices making a loud sound...but that happens every week in sports stadiums the world over. But no. This was a crossover sound. A roar from behind the veil. The roar of the Lamb /Lion of Judah transmitted through overwhelmed hearts...like a trumpet announcement that we had all better get ready, because the Word of God is still on track....and though appearances over the recent decades, the great wars,the communist takeovers, appeared to say otherwise, nope....the Word of God was still on course, and the Kingdom Plan was unfolding perfectly as described. In the West we have been blessed in one sense, but psychologically these have been some of the darkest years on planet earth.
But that sound, if you had heard it you would understand what I mean, has carried a whole generation of us as the world's media has divebombed into the foulest language and thought forms, and we have reminded ourselves and kept ourselves for these very times. Times not just of Spirit outpuring that we knew then, but times when the secret of how you live fulltime in the River of God has started to be voiced. the secret of Galations 2:20. The secret of a worship Jesus described in John 4, when it would neither be this mountain nor that one, but that all would worship in Spirit and in truth. Or as an OT prophet wrote..."the pots and pans"....the Le Creuset set, would cry Holy to the Lord. The gathering of a such a people will birth a Roar like the Earth has never heard.

What is a Dance before two armies? The Shulammite in Song of Songs.
Watchman Nee flagged this up in his book.
It's where I deliberately target an Armenian with the Sovereignty of God, while making it clear I'm not a Calvinist. And it's where I deliberately target a Calvinist with "Go out and make disciples", because you know the Calvinist demonic spirit has long paralysed them from going out and doing anything....ooooh it might not be the Lord's will.
All artists tend to do the Dance before two Armies without labelling at as such, and really anybody who follows the Spirit will be teasing Republicans and Democrats out from their "idees fixes". The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is like the Wicked Witch in Narnia, turning everybody to ice and stone. You become fixed in your little leftbrain image of truth, and you throw out Jesus the Living One who dances between all the candlesticks.

The Dance of the Supercharge



Everything in Creation waits upon the Dance of the Supercharge. 
Even such a phrase is impertinent, for like New Age thought, it renders impersonal that which is extremely Personal, namely the Presence and Acts of a Personal Father God.

But in this blogpost we are going to look at this analogy as expressed in creation, in arts and prophetics, the Word of faith, and Church life.

I was raised a Methodist, and Methodists love that Sydney Carter song/hymn Lord of the Dance.
Here are some of the lyrics:

I danced in the morning when the world was begun
I danced in the Moon & the Stars & the Sun.........

I danced for the scribe & the pharisee
But they would not dance & they wouldn't follow me.......

I danced on the Sabbath & I cured the lame
The holy people said it was a shame!.......

I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black
It's hard to dance with the devil on your back........

They cut me down and I leapt up high
I am the Life that'll never, never die!
I'll live in you if you'll live in Me -
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
I actually hated this song, perhaps it was the way it was sung. But now I "get" it.

The whole Universe is dancing.
Everything in Creation is doing a loop de loop physically from quarks up to galaxies.
As we "see" more in the Spirit, as we extend the bandwidth of our perception it seems there is no spirit/material divide really just as formerly we realised there is no secular/spiritual divide.

The only "divide" is in our heart. And the dividing wall of hostility is broken down. There is no separation. The veil is permanently rent.
What Creation is, is a lattice, a framework, a playpen, for budding godlike beings to learn their craft of speaking Light into Darkness, of confessing Jesus as Lord before they see Jesus everywhere as Lord.
In our hearts we believe and with our mouths we confess that Jesus is risen from the dead.

In the mouths of babes and sucklings does God perfect His praise.

This lattice is described in Song of Solomon, and this Jesus Dancer, this Skipper on hills and Mountains, keeps bounding down to meet us where we are at, then bound off again, until such time that we are able to do the same.

He comes, and He draws us with kisses and love. He ravishes our hearts. We say, "Come back, I want more of that." Song of Songs 1

[b]May he kiss me with the kisses of his mouth!
For your love is better than wine.
“Your oils have a pleasing fragrance,
Your name is like [c]purified oil;
Therefore the [d]maidens love you.
“Draw me after you and let us run together!
The king has brought me into his chambers.”
[e]We will rejoice in you and be glad;
We will [f]extol your love more than wine.
Rightly do they love you.”

This is what the secular scoffer, the modern leftbrain schooled in Rothschild media doesn't get. Universal among those who have been drawn into God across millennia is really the same description of a relationship.
These verses aren't poetry...they are a forensic description of everything we have been feeling since we were first born again and baptised in His holy Spirit. It's the same thing that David felt, Moses felt, Ezekiel felt, St John felt. This is what it's really like being loved by Jesus.

One of the things Sydney Carter was articulating was the difference between Law, morality, the Tree of Good in the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and  Evil....is that JESUS IS NOT THAT.

He is NEVER the empty framework....even if it be the GOOD end of the framework....HE rather is the SUBSTANCE of the whole thing....FILLING EVERYTHING with HIS ALL. He is the TREE of LIFE. HE is the RIVER OF LIFE that flows from the Throne. HE IS the ONLY LIFE....literally the only life in the Universe. Even Satan's life is derived from this One Life. Apart from this one life Satan can do nothing. But Satan has lied to himself that he is independent, that he is his own life source, and into this lie he has wooed all fallen mankind. He has, it is true twisted God's life in on itself to make a self for self life, rather than God's pure source which is love poured out for others.


We don't understand the physics of this at present, but I received as revelation some time back that what DRIVES this creation at the smallest level, are things, be they particles, or whatever, that come from somewhere else and go somewhere else after they have impacted our atomic world. Some have labelled these Melchizedek particles. Jesus is such a priest. He came down from above....He is the ONLY God conceived, the ONLY God begotten Son of God. Adam was scooped up from the earth and breathed into.
Jesus came from the heavenlies, danced among us, took our Adamic order into death with Him and was raised all the while raising our whole condition in Him. We, by faith in Jesus, simply are nolonger of the Adamic order. And one day our flesh will prove that outwardly.

Adam died inwardly long before, hundreds of years before he died outwardly.
We are raised inwardly way before our body molecules respond outwardly.



But God woos us and forms us in a dance. Sometimes we are very conscious of Him, sometimes He is not perceptible to our senses. He is there though just as the sun is always there though obscured by thick grey cloud.

Some of our early relating with babies is to play peek a boo with them. Some of the early bonding revolves around the combined joy that we ARE in fact there for our children.

Now you could strap a baby up in a high chair, get out a whiteboard and "instruct " the baby about how you are committed to its welfare. Have you noticed that all the really important teaching we receive is in relationship and not left to the vagaries of leftbrain highschool learning.

What we really want to know having pitched up on this planet, not by our own volition at all, and surrounded by a whole anonymous sea of people like ourselves is....

What is my place in the world?
What is the plan for me?
Do I have significance?
Am I loved?

And guess what being cuddled by a mother teaches?


The first Adam was a lump of shapely formed clay, but inert, until God put His lips to Adam and breathed in His very Life.
The new Adam is inert. Lifeless. Only a lattice of belief. Of ideas. Of good intentions. Until we have a relationship with Our very Own Jesus. Allbeit that our very Own Jesus is the very same Jesus as everybody elses.....UNLESS....UNLESS....our Jesus is still partly an idol of our own mind and not in fact the REAL ONE. The real One has to work for all tribes of people types, nations, time periods, male , female, slave, free, intellectual or practically skilled....it's the same Jesus coming to kiss our lips. Wanting to fuse with us.

The phrase in the Bible for moving from inert state to SUPERCHARGE is waiting upon the Lord.
It is an active, expectant waiting based upon the myriad promises of God expressed right through the Bible.
Waiting upon means exchanging life forms. Adamic for Last Adam. My breath for His.

Waiting means entwining with. Entwining my DNA spiral around His DNA spiral.
It is exactly the same image in Hebrew as in the later Greek word for "hidden". My life is hidden with Christ in God. My spirit and God's spirit are so fused there is absolutely no way you , me or anyone can know where we start and He ends.

He has given many tools to access this Supercharge.
In the Old Testament the picture of the priests was that they walk 6 paces, with the Ark of the Covenant on their shoulders then on the 7th pace they rested and sacrificed to God.

The drawback with that picture, as Jesus showed, is that in the new thing He was bringing in there is no sabbath day of rest in the week so to speak.Many times He was still preaching. But in the new thing the Work of God becomes your food rest and replenishment. This is Life in the Supercharge. We watch what the Life of God is doing in us now....we go with the Dance....we go with the flow....
we can do no other, as Jesus said. I only do what I see my Father doing.

The whole of time twists. Jesus sought God up a mountain, and when the disciples who were still living in normal time had got into a boat to return, Jesus walked on the water to meet them.

Online we have been looking at the nature of church. We know how church is for those who are largely not born again from on high....or at least have not made that their present experience yet. We know how it is for those who have. We also know how church is for Spirit filled people...but ones who are very much comfortable still in their Song of Songs lattice....so what about the ones who are starting to skip on the mountains. What does that church look like? Well consider the gospels. Jesus with the disciples ministering from place to place.

Once you see church as temporary booths, as in the Jewish feast of the booths, you see them as gathering places for the purpose of WORD TRANSPLANTATION.  The booth can be dismantled. Take different forms. What is PERMANENT and remains is solely WORD in the believers.

The PROOF of WORD is the harvest of LIVING LETTERS.
The form, the booth, is not the valuable commodity.

In the UK centuries of earnest believers saved and scrimped and laboured and built  building after building that now litter the pavements of towns. Often derelict, or converted into rug shops, or mosques...or whatever
they are actually testimony to the half built tower of Christianity through 2000 years in the UK.

It's about LIVING LETTERS.

Supercharge can come by laying something down.
Food.
Fasting.

Laying down time to pray or meditate.
But in the third level these are now "subtools".
The big one is Romans 12:1-2 ....the offering of our whole bodies as continual living sacrifices....but not as the rest of the churches teach....as some noble effort and struggle. (I feel this when Lance Lambert preaches on these verses) NOPE.
Go back and do your homework.
The homework is all the other chapters of Romans beforehand.

If your death and resurrection in Jesus isn't real experience to you....you don't really "see " it yet....don't beat yourself up, just earnestly claim the promise of the Holy Spirit Guide to lead you into all truth....all Romans Truth. Do a catch up course. Then when you have got it in your faith, then you can approach Romans 12 properly.

How do we move out from the lattice AS CHURCHES?
Well, as individuals we have to change TREES.
If you are in the TREE OF LIFE you have already fused with the DANCER, and you will be already running rings round those stuck in the lattice.

“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must be born [c]again.’ The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
You can construct a lattice but you can't construct the Church which comes down from above.

There's a peculiar calling from birth upon a segment of people....almost regardless of whether born again or not.

They are prophetic. They are creatives. They can also be darned moody.
They can appear other worldly. You can't demand anything of them....although sometimes the pressure of the demand is a furnace which can produce results.
You can't make them do anything to your commands....they themselves do not even behave according to their own whims or demands. For them the process feels like giving birth to something in great torment.

They are a sign in the earth to another world....the world of heart. The world of honour. True glory. The beyond.

I don't think Dylan Thomas was born again as such....but in "Under Milk Wood" he lays bare the sort of real life characterisations that lie behind the carefully constructed facades of our projections of human life...it has a quaint beautiful localised feel, describing a Welsh port....but really the quirks and personnages could be anywhere on earth. Which is why it is so well loved and it spills out from its immediate boundaries.

See, as fast you say, HAH....that guy shouldn't be sleeping with that other man's wife....
well, Judah the tribe inherited its name from goings on far worse. The Bible beats Under Milk Wood for graphic almost pornographic detail hands down...why
simply that every mouth be stopped, and everyone be forced to admit that
living independently we live powered by MR LUSTS
there is no middle ground.
We need a new man to Dance in us. We are meant to be in another LOVE RELATIONSHIP.

The dance is expressed in other humans accepting and receiving actively their brethren the prophets, the creatives.

A civilisation dies when it lives under Rothschild and the balance sheet.
Suddenly it turns about and asks....Hey?
Where are the musicians. Where are the painters, designers and sculptors?
Everything is mass produced plastic from China. Nothing is real. One off. Authentic.

Churches look round and suddenly notice...that SUPERCHARGE WORD that comes through dedicated prophets is nolonger among us. I remember it used to be there in the 70s and 80s? What happened? Where did they go?

At the moment the thirdlevel church is poised to manifest and the Dragon is poised to try and tear the baby from the mother at the time of its birth. As far as I can see, the thirdlevel church isn't in any of the existing churches, which now are largely empty shells with hardly any remaining SUPERCHARGE.

Ichabod.

The Bride and a synagogue : The Difference

 "What is a seminary?  
A baby  pacifier , a dummy, a milk substitute? Why? because the milk and meat supplier is the Woman, the Bride, the Church. Where there is no Woman overshadowing the Manchild (Rev12) to bring it forth....no proper milk....then stuff a seminary in its mouth to suck on."

The Bride first and foremost is in love.
She loves her Bridegroom with a passion. She loves God so much she fulfils the First Commandment and the Second.She loves God with all her heart
all her strength
all her soul
all her mind.....in that order. and loves her neighbour as herself.

No other on the earth fulfils the First Commandment .
The Bride in consummating Her love exists to bear children.
The Bride does not "do evangelism", she bears children and raises them in her form.

The synagogue goes 200 miles to make one convert , and them twice the son of hell that they are.
The Bride does not worship as an activity. She worships as a reflex. She breathes worship.

The synagogue "trains" its people, and its special people it sends to seminary. Everything it does  it does at one remove.
The Bride is the heart of Christ in the Earth. The Bride is in Union with Her Lover. She bears and raises her Manchild in her very own form. Her "means", is the same as Her essence, Body Life. Life co-shared between individuals who know they have died and the Life they now live is Christ. Theirs is no "Christ and"  type of existence. Because they know they were there at the Cross, co crucified along with Christ, they know there is no them and Christ, rattling around like two peas in a pod. There is no question of the Bride doing any activity to try and join herself to the Bridegroom, as she realises that any delusion of separation between the two was destroyed utterly at the Cross.

The synagogue does everything at one remove, because it ALWAYS believes there are two. When a synagogue uses the word church, it does so in this "Christ and " reference. There is a separate Christ out there, and a people forming a kind of club that call themselves the church trying to reach Him.

There are unbelieving synagogues. There are believing synagogues.Of believing Christian synagogues
the main difference between an evangelical synagogue and a charismatic synagogue is about 10 minutes of singing in tongues, and maybe a gift of prophecy  once a month.

Because a synagogue is Christ Life once removed...or at a distance....what the Song of Solomon refers to as the "daughters of Jerusalem" , the lack of actual Union Life, has to be substituted with external additives and adornments to make up for the absence of proper internal life.
The Bride brings forth its own Manchild of mature ministries.The synagogue has to invent her seminary system.
The Bride's Own mature ministries feed into the Bride together. On the Day of Pentecost Peter stood with the eleven. All the apostles continued feeding the young church in Jerusalem.
The synagogue is run in the pattern of her father the devil, which is a geometry of no life, a pyramid, held in place by coercian from the top.
The Bride has its own complicated and internal structure based on One Life Source present in all her members. Christ is the Cornerstone who keeps the building together. Or viewed as a Body in Ephesians, the Body builds itself in love. Ephesians 4 :15 -16 speaking the truth in love we are to grow up in all aspects unto Him who is the Head even Christ, from whom the whole Body, being fitted and held together by that which every joint supplies according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.
Just as you can no more describe how the human body works but by Christine my wife doing a three year nursing course into its complexity of lifegiving functions, so in the same way each part having Union Life with its Saviour gives natural expression to that same Life. In fact in this Ephesians passage is the circular nature of the description. Each part builds up the Body so that each part may build up the Body!!! The Bride extends Herself. She is like a mansion of housebuilding extensions that all build extensions.

Body Life happens where it lives. It takes its form from its own life.
Synagogue life happens at one remove. It needs a place specially marked out in advance to function.
Body life functions anyway, wherever it gathers, whatever it is doing.

Synagogue life takes decades and each successive generation is a watered down version of the last.
A Synagogue leader or rabbi surrounds him or herself with people they can trust to go along with their particular slanted vision. This will be friends and family members.
The Bride builds herself up co ordinatedly and not with huge lumpy outgrowths of say, faith, or a particular teaching, or a particular style of meeting. Each member of the Bride has her own DNA, her own propensity to a single eye, that is to seeing Christ going on, regardless of in who and in what format or style. The Bride adds vision to her circle of understanding as she collectively pursues Her Beloved.
The Bride maintains Unity of Spirit, because that is the address where she lives,(she lives from Christ Himself,) until she is established in the Unity of the faith. I am not naive enough to believe that this doesn't involve friction, but just as sin itself requires a skilful Body technique, so does the whole question of differences. The Body hammers things out, but on the basis of unconditional love, and seeing One at the centre of all things.The Body "technique" for sin and differences is "In returning and rest shall be your salvation, in quietness and confidence/trust is your strength."
A seed form of Bride life both for the local church, and the international Body was Bible Houses. Their life together was built on the above verse and
"Seek Me and live".Amos 5:4.
Bible houses never "fully worked" because they never fully understood the 3rd level fatherhood stage of 1 John 2. But their pattern came in the Spirit through Ed Miller, and had the churches continued to receive his 3rd level input and not tried to work a 3rd level pattern with 2nd level techniques, many ensuing problems would have been sorted.One of Ed's Words that he attempted to introduce was "ministry from spiritual eunuchs". First and second level ministries marry their churches and live in 3 way open relationships with Christ. Just as this is gross sin in the natural,it is even worse, more widespread and more devastating in spiritual life.Third level ministries have learned to be eunuchs, preparing the Bride alongside the Holy Spirit for the One Bridegroom.

 The Bride lives from the concept that the Body lives from One Life, Christ. Just as a natural body tends to work towards unity of function , so in the Spirit the Christward direction tends towards unity, healing and from one degree of glory to another.

The synagogue preserves the previous generations' one sided truths in aspic, for future museum visitors to view in its glass case.
 The synagogue thinks in a linear fashion which leads to circular behaviour. Going round mountains in wildernesses.
The Bride thinks in a Jewish and God- related circular fashion according to cycles ,times and seasons, and harvests, so that her behaviour is ever more linear ,striding along the centre of God's own history in the earth.

 The synagogue only operates in a Holy Spirit human order mix.
The Bride only exists in the Oxygen of the Melchizedek order. She has no life outside that order.
Jesus is her agenda, her means, her place, her pattern.

People argue about the gifts of the Spirit.
Charismatic synagogues attach the gifts to their circular behaviours.
Whereas the bride's own inner union with, her life source she lives from is :
God, who laid His own glory aside
to become something new.
"Today I have begotten you"
Christ was begotten the Son of man. The second Adam.
For thirty years He lived a natural life as a Man , but IN HIS FATHER.
When asked about how to increase faith by his disciples He told his own story:
as a 30 year old man. In the position of servant in God's kingdom, you begin your human life sweating in the scorching sun of the  field. At the end of the day, dogtired you serve the Master His meal and drink until He has had sufficient. You are serving in the second mile!!! Somewhere in that 30 year process in Jesus ' life was formed Fatherhood of identity, which eventually led to the inner communication that now was the time He lay down His tools and enter into ministry.
At His baptism in Jordan, His own Father announces His Son. This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. This was marking the change where the servant then sits down for a meal, and this time the Master, here the father girds Himself as a servant and co operates with Jesus in His new Ministry. It is upon the Son that the dove comes down to rest.
And it is always upon this Son , from our first day of conversion, that the baptism of the Holy Spirit is conferred.

Try as we might to avoid it, the Bride moves from a Man who first in His natural life for 30 years, matured as one living in the Father, and then after baptism matured as one in Holy Spirit ministry for 3 years. This is the nature of the Inner life the Bride moves from. The gifts are not strained adjuncts to a life lived at one remove, like the structure of Synagogues, but they are perfumes of the One Life that the Bride all share, in the context of continual Body Life.

Jesus trained the disciples from the word go by sending them out to experience the gifts of the Spirit. They were present as he preached and the Spirit fell upon the multitude. Sometimes God's Presence was there to heal, and in meetings now we are aware of God's presence coming as a River in one particularly strong way, and tens or hundreds are touched simultaneously. What may take years of prayer is just swept away in ten seconds of God's river. The disciples were trained watching all this. But simultaneous to all this and in glorious coordinated balance to all this was Jesus own John 6 Word to all the disciples...Unless you eat of my flesh and drink my Blood you have not life within you.

Synagogues produce leaders with knowledge about a subject.
The mature emerging out of Body Life impart to the next group of believers this Eating of the flesh of Christ and the drinking of His Blood. This Life that ISNT at one remove. This Life of which Jesus will never have to say  "I never knew You", for Body Life is actually both the grace and the squeeze of the Way to the Truth to the Life:
The grace to impart and birth that very Life,
but also the squeeze coming like contractions  at childbirth, where each individual is challenged at the Cross about where their "inner seeing is divided" and not single-eyed.
"All Manchild children, all this Bride, this Revelation 12 Woman's offspring all say about this One Life of Christ, the same as said by any apostle in history:
This life that I have touched, tasted handled, I pass onto you.

Synagogue leaders say, "This Life I have seen afar off in a vision "
"This Life I have read of in a book, or have heard tell by someone who was once in a seminary, this Life at one remove I give lifelessly to you, that you too might pass on the stillbirth to others."
