The angelic realms will hear of the birth and arrive to honor God's Sons. All creation will marvel at the grandeur of God's wisdom, made alive in his offspring. The Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. All will exalt at their presence, and be washed in the living flow. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Jarred from joyous reunion by the sudden blast from a battle horn, the din will subside and these new commanders of galaxies will convene in divine congress. This cartel of ruling divinity is called the Body of Christ. For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
The Body of Christ is composed of the glorified firstborn Sons of God, the firstfruits of Israel. Ye are come unto mount Sion...to the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant.
Jesus will be chairman of this heavenly group, and the members themselves are his brothers. So He fixes the time for the birth of her child [Jesus], and He will restore with the Children of Israel the rest of His brothers!...They rest, when tired, at the bounds of the earth. Michah 5:1-3 (Fenton) All the brothers of Jesus will share his destiny, for they all will have been born by the same process. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and set down with my Father in his throne.
Assembled into this divine federation, the reins of creation will be transferred to them. Unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. They will be given the heavens and the earth. All the realms of creation will be placed in their care. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Every facet of time, space, power, good, evil, life, and death, they will receive as a personal possession. Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Then turning their attention to the crisis on earth, they will invade from the heavenly realms. Intense as a phalanx of kings, they will pass through the plasmatic veil that restrains creation, and enter the realm of flesh. In a moment they will appear on the earth, as warriors emerging from a shimmering mirage. Their hearts will pulse with righteousness and their hands will be laden for war. And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Fathers name written in their foreheads.
This group of divine beings is the only answer to earth's problems. They have been ordained of God as the power that shall end the captivity of evil that now enslaves the world. Behold the Lord God shall come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. These are unyielding sovereigns, the appointed ruler of all things. With a mission of dread purpose they will arrive to cleanse the earth. I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger.
In stealth they will be suddenly present, as gentle as fog, as piercing as truth, as lethal as God himself. They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the Lord, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land. Howl ye, for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt.
All flesh shall sense their arrival, and the terrors of men will turn inward. Saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau, and the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
Entering this world of evil, as alighting near a funnel cloud, the Sons of God, as insurgents, will appear on the earth. It will be a time when few looked for them. It will be a day when they were not expected. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Abruptly and without warning the Sons of God will arrive, in the midst of darkness, as furious lightning on a black and stormy night. They will come as the avengers of blood, the kinsman-redeemers of Adam. They come with a mission to liberate, and to claim the blood debt of their clan. For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth. As an army from the the rising sun they will redress the grievance of Eden. The Lord sends your brave army from Zion; charge up to the breast of your foes! Your Forces are ready to-day, your Army in beautiful pomp, More than dew-drops that come from the breast of the Dawn! Psalms 110:2,3 (Fenton)
With their weapons at the ready the Sons will cry against the powers of evil, and demand the release of mankind. The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me...to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of veneance of our God. They will assemble in battle array, with tumult and power, speaking war to the enemies of God.
The enemies of God are fear, doubt, disbelief, self-centeredness, rebellion, and idolatry. These are to be eradicated from the earth.

The First Resurrection (part 2)
by Garrison R. Russell
from SonPlacing
Arriving at the counsel hall of the ages, these individuals will meet their Father face to face. They will learn who they are. As the magnitude of Sonship washes over their spirit, they will be transformed into their Father's likeness.
Just imagine. Webs of intense light will begin to arc through their hair, as so many colored bursts of electric lace. As the curling flashes replicate, they will slowly form into shimmering rings. Encircling each participant, these celestial adorments roll slowly downward, passing over each body from head to foot, as a ripple of blue-green iridescence.
Astonished, they will peer into their hands and chest, suddenly made translucent with incandescent power. A shuddering wave will run through their bones. Their outer forms will begin to dissolve, coalescing inward, shrinking until each body is reduced to a tiny spot, brighter than the sun.
As each becomes an infinitesimal point, much smaller than an electron, from each will explode all the power of creation, all the stars that were ever made. The galactic current of time will swerve to avoid these beings, swirling into a fractal stream and pooling to await their bidding. Suddenly they will emerge in another realm, as babes ejected from a womb.
In an instant these Sons will burst into the resplendence of autonomous, self-pertetuating life. At once, they will find themselves small enough to enter an atom, and large enough to put the universe in their pocket. That they may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us. They will be clothed with the traits of divinity, a bequest that cannot be reversed. Suddenly they will understand. All things will become open and known. The secrets of the universe will become clear as a child's puzzle. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
From these rites of passage, swift and sure, these newly manifest Sons will emerge as glorified, life-giving creators of flesh and spirit. The Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
Yahweh their Father will be there. Jesus, their oldest brother and captain, will welcome them with a knowing joy. One by one they will present them to the fellowship of their brethren. I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
Then joining with their new comrades, they will fall into the revelry of ecstatic reunion. As soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. Adam, Elijah, and Peter will roar with elation. Eve, Rachel, and Ruth will burst into musical laughter. Noah and Abraham will excitedly rehearse the marvels of their experience. Joseph and Benjamain will weep with joyful gratitude. All will flow with an explosive energy of euphoric ebullience that will peal in waves past the bounds of creation. And they sung as it were a new song before the throne...and no man could learn that song by the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
They will all be changed. No longer limited by gender or form, they will have vibrant bodies of light which obey their every whim. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. Each will be free, an individual without restraint, clad with the brillance of life. For one star differeth from another star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead.
All will enter a timeless existence, without beginning and without end. The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou aret a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. They will exude the faultless character of deity. In their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God. And each will be known by a new name, which cannot be understood, slandered, or even spoken, by those outside that gathering. The Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name.

Six thousand years after the fall of Adam, the firstborn Sons of God will arise from earthly mortality. This celestial event will comprise the glorification of a small group from the Adamic race. This is the first resurrection. AFTER SIX DAYS Jesus taketh with him Peter, James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.
In any crop, some individual plants reach their maturity well before the general harvest. These are called the "firstfruits." So also with the spirits of men. Some will reach their maturity and be readied for spirit birth, long before the rest. These will be raised to immortal splendor at the start of the Millennium, one-thousand years before the resurrection of the sleepy multitudes. The rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.
God will assemble these firstfruits from the halls of time and gather them unto himself. The firstfruits of thy land thou shal bring into the house of the Lord thy God. They will be lifted out of the created realm, far beyond the reach of flesh or created spirit. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. They are destined for the Begotten Realm - that divine state of being that has thus far been occupied by Yahweh and Jesus alone. Thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, even the first dominion.
After the seven seals of Revelation, and at the blast of the seventh trumpet, the secret purpose of God will be complete. In the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished. This mystery is the Body of Christ. It is the anointing of "Christ", perfected in many individual members. The mystery of God, Christ, in whom are all the hidden treasures of the wisdom and knowledge. Col. 2:2,3 (Wuest)
Very soon now, on a day much like today, those who have ratified the New Covenant of sacrifice within their own spirits, will be collected from the ages. Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice. Those whose lives have been shipwrecked upon the purposes of God, will be assembled in divine counsel. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
These are the firstfruits of the Adamic race, and they will be summoned to the first resurrection. I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God...and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. These Overcomers will be raised into faultless perfection - this is the act of spirit birth. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
At the sound of the seventh trumpet, those who have completed their spiritual gestation upon the earth will be raised from the dead and changed in the atoms. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
These illustrious travelers will step into another dimension and be transformed into divine beings. This is the first resurrection, and those who are called to it will ascend to the helm of creation. And the seventh angel sounded, and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
Arriving at the counsel hall of the ages, these individual will meet their Father face to face. They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God. There they will learn who they are. Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. As the magnitude of Sonship washes over their spirit, they will be transformed into their Father's likeness. We know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

The Secret Sons
by Garrison R. Russell
from SonPlacing
"God is timeless spirit being. He is the source of all wisdom, knowledge, power. His existence is self-sustaining and without limitation. And so also are his Sons. For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself.
Those who become the Sons of God are conceived from the spiritual ancestry of God. They are born from his genetics. They will develop into what he is. The glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one. They will no longer be human. (Adamlike)They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. They will become timeless spirit beings. Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life. They will become reactors of radiant life. By your endurance shall ye gain your lives for a possession. Luke 21:19 (Emphasized) As the offspring of God they will stand in his presence, and see his face, and possess his glory. That ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
These Sons will become custodians of all that can be known. Then shall I know even as also I am known. They will hold the scepter of all authority. Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. They will be limited by nothing, save the bonds of unalterable paternal love. For I do always those thins that please him. These are the Secret Sons, and they are fast becoming a reality. Because as He Himself is, we also shall be, in that world. 1 John 4:17 (Fenton)
[The Secret Sons: For six thousand years the Adamic race has been beseiged by carnal addiction, spiritual deception, and political oppression. The vast multitudes of men have succumbed to these forces and have been exploited as helpless chattel.
But all through the misty centuries of tumultuous darkness, there has been another, smaller, secret class of individuals. Some of earth's sojourners, a very few, have escaped their captors. These have slid the chains from their spirits and raised up from the mire to behold the brilliant light of another realm. Even so at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
These hungry individuals yearned for something more than the soon tarnished glitter of mortal life. While they lived on the earth, they hoped to find some single permanent treasure amongst the heaps of temporal tinsel. With the zeal of the half-starved, these sought for and found the secret plan of God.
They discovered that by the death and rising of Jesus Christ, God perfected a resurrected spirit that could be planted as a seed into the hearts of men. When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. They learned that if this seed should become bonded to their own spirit, a new child would be formed. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. This child is an entirely new entity, a new spirit being. If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Those who uncovered this secret discerned that this new spirit child is the offspring of its Father - it is a Son of God. As many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God. This spirit Son is developed in the travails of earth, but it has an otherworldy existence, with a destiny far beyond the created realm. And why did God make you two one? Because He sought a godly offspring from your union. Malachi 2:15. (Amplified)
Finding this Son within them, they perceived that though it begins in embryonic form, this Son is a sibling to Jesus Christ. For both he that sanctifieth [Jesus] and they who are sanctified [you] are all of one [God]: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren. And if this stripling spirit within them was brought to maturity, he would stand to inherit all the same substance that Jesus Christ inherited. This is all the wealth of divinity. If chidren, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ.
Woven through the ages as a thread through a garment have been a few individuals who have set out on this path to Sonship. These came into possession of the seed of life, and then began their journey by avoidng the clutches of Organized Religion.
Through diligence these found the hidden promises of God and finally looked into the spirit realm, as a spy peers over a wall. Having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were stranger and pilgrims on the earth."

315 Old Testament Prophecies Fulfilled By Christ
315 Old Testament Prophecies Fulfilled By Christ
Jesus quoted from or referenced 24 books of the Old Testament in his ministry, and that is only from the writings that have been preserved for us in our present bible. Although, he did not quote from all of them, he did make reference to the three divisions of the Law, the Prophets and the Psalms which contained all. In his temptation in the wilderness, his rebuttal to the devil was "It is written".
Many are lining up in this day and volunteering for pallbearer detail of the written word. Throughout history the Old and the New Testament have shown themselves to be reliable and true; the truth contained in them has risen up to outlive all its pallbearers....its truth, I'm afraid, will bury us before we succeed in burying it.
Until "The Living Word", the Author, decodes its spiritually encrypted messages to us we just do not see beyond the letter or literalness of its words.
Quote:
"Many people today do not believe in the authority of the Old Testament as Scripture. However, Jesus had some quite different things to say regarding the Old Testament. Here is a brief list of some of what Jesus taught about the Old Testament:
1.Source of Authority
A.When confronted by Satan, Jesus appealed to the Old Testament as a source of authority by stating, "It is written," (Matt. 4:4, 7, 10).
2.Imperishability
A."For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished," (NASB, Matt. 5:18).
3.Unbreakability
A."The Scripture cannot be broken," (NASB, Jn. 10:35).
4.Source of Doctrinal Authority
A.Jesus appealed to Scripture when correcting false doctrine stating, "You are mistaken, not understanding the Scriptures nor the power of God," (NASB, Matt. 22:29).
5.Truthfulness
A."Your word is truth," (NASB, Jn. 17:17).
6.Historical Reliability
A.Jesus affirmed the historical existence of Jonah (Matt. 12:40), Noah (Matt. 24:37-38), and Adam and Eve (Matt. 19:4-6).
7.Scientific Reliability
A.Jesus affirmed that God created the world (Mk. 13:19; cf. Matt. 19:4).
8.Old Testament Canonicity
A.Jesus made reference to the Law and Prophets as a unit (Matt. 5:17).
B.Jesus explained the Scriptures, "Then beginning with Moses and with all the prophets, He explained to them the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures," (NASB, Luke 24:27).
C.Jesus referred to the entire Canon by mentioning all the prophets from Abel (from Genesis, the first book and first martyr) to Zechariah (Chronicles, the last book, and the last martyr) (Matt. 23:35).

ROBERT C. NEWMAN, S.T.M., Ph.D.Ph.D. in Astrophysics, Cornell University, 1967; S.T.M., Biblical School of Theology, 1972; Associate Professor of Physics and Mathematics, Shelton College, 19689-71; Associate professor of New Testament, Biblical School of Theology, 1971-
Wrote a book entitled "Science Speaks, Scientific Proof of the Accuracy of Prophecy and the Bible."
In it they took only eight of the more than 300 prophecies fulfilled by Christ and determined the odds of one person fulfilling just those eight. The results were astounding! They calculated the odds at 1 in 10 to the 17th power or 1 in 100, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000. Dr. Stoner calculated that many silver dollars would cover the entire state of Texas, two feet deep! I ask you, what do you think the odds are that if one silver dollar was painted red, how likely would it be for a blind folded person to march out and pick up the red one on the first try? Certainly if one did that, it would be by definition, a miracle!
