Thank you Bro., for your beautiful word and yet another witness to me of the Firstfruits company, those 3 tribes that inherited before crossing the river of death, the Jordan. There is a people that will come into the fullness of God, spirit, soul and body before dying or crossing Jordan. I saw it in the colors of the jewels that you shared about that represented each of these tribes - GREEN. Green, of course, is the color of Life. These are the first to inherit life.
These three received their inheritance it says, "at the rising of the sun/son", or the first resurrection.
Reuben - Emerald Jade/ color Green ..meaning “Behold a Son”
Gad….Chrysoprase..color green meaning “Good fortune”
Joseph….Green Jade. Color green. Meaning “Increaser”
Those first three tribes that came into their rest or inheritance first on the eastern side of the Jordan were:
Rueben
Gad
&
Manasseh (Joseph's firstborn son after he came to the throne in egypt)
These three tribes after coming into their inheritance on the east side of the Jordan, led the way across the Jordan and stayed with their brothers until they, too, came into their inheritance on the western side - so this is the Body of Enchristed ones who minister on both sides of the river just as Jesus. (heaven and earth)
I mean this in no way to take away from the full measuring of the city of God which incorporates all twelve of the tribes that you shared....as God is all in all! \o/
Love and blessings,
Karen

The Created Realm and the Begotten Realm
"Man is governed by an awareness of time, and derives meaning from an ordered sequence of events. People are always late for one thing or early for the next, and there is always more to do than can be done. Hours bulge with priorities, becoming days pregnant with obligation, and the end of each week seems always laden with the undone.
The "Created Realm," [speaking of matter-formed creation] by definition, is that area enclosed by the boundaries of time. This domain includes the observable universe and all physical and spirit beings. Within this realm all things live a fleeting existence of perpetual decay. Unless they are replenished by God they deteriorate, and as time passes, eventually wear out.
Because of this, the Created Realm is the dominion of "death." Created beings are not independent sources of life. Men, angels, and stars must be sustained by their Creator. Their lives are limited, and their continued existence is subject to his constant review.
Because it is a function of position, time is a limitation only for creatures that must live in a fixed place. If you could be in two places at one, you would exist in two different times. This is easily accomplished by increasing your size. If you could grow until you reached three thousand miles long, you could lay down on the United States with your head in Seattle and your toes in Boston. Then you head would exist at a time that is three hours behind your toes, while your toes would be three hours in the future. You would exist in more than one place, and therefore you would exist in more than one time.
If you continued to grow until you could place the earth in your pocket, time would become irrelevant, for you would then be in all the time zones of earth, at the same moment. You would dwell beyond the borders of earthly time. But this would not be a problem for you, because then you would not choose to live in any particular time zone. Rather, you would siimply exist in the permanent "Now."
This is the situation with God. He is very big. Since he exists at all points in the universe, God dwells in every time. He is not limited to the confines of a single time or location. God is ubiquitous and timeless. He is everywhere at once, and all times are open before him. Though he be not far from every one of us; for in him we live, and move, and have our being.
To God, all the places and times of creation are visible and accessible. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. God is not constrained to a linear sequence of events. He is big enough to place the created universe in his pocket, and thus he is larger than time. For wisdom and might are his: and he changeth the times and the seasons.
Because he has unlimited time, God is not "result" oriented, he is "process" oriented. And in the process of time it came to pass. His plans span eons of time and he works in infinite detail, savoring each moment of every process. God is never hampered by any constraint or uncertainty, and never in a rush to accomplish anything. Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return.
God dwells in the ever-present "Now". The instant called "Now" is common to every place. To live in the great "Now" is thus to be everywhere, in every time. Hast thou not heard long ago, how I have done it; and of ancient times, that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass.
This is the dwellingplace of God - it is called the "Begotten Realm." The Begotten Realm is much larger than creation. It exists far beyond the confines of the Created Realm. This a habitation of surpassing grandeur that far excels the stiff constraints of mortals. All the created universe and its billions of galaxies appear as a floating speck when viewed from the Begotten Realm.
God easily fills every inch of creation's volume and still exists infinitely beyond its boundaries. Out there, beyond the limits of creation, time has no meaning. All things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Begotten beings have no beginning and no end. They are ever-present reactors of self-perpetuating life. In the Begottern Realm, there is no decay.
Begotten beings live in the infinite "Now". This is the home of "I Am," the habitation of God, a heavenly domain where all the strings of time are gathered into a single hand, and converge to a single purpose. Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.
To join God in begotten life, his Sons would have to be "born". And like any birth, this would require an interval of "gestation." Gestation is a period of development, a steady transformation from one state of being into another. This is an interval of time that begins at conception and finalizes at birth. Gestation thus requires the passage of time. And time can only be found in the Created Realm.
This is the purpose for creation. God made the created universe as a womb for his soon coming Sons. Since there is no time in the Begotten Realm, there can be no gestation there. For the begetting process, the spirits of men had to be placed into the Created Realm. Here they can experience a sequence of events, a slow, steady transformation from one state of being into another. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by the reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope.
You have been sent to earth in a physical body, to accomplish a spiritual gestation. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. The linear events of earth are like an assembly line, providing the various parts in the proper order, to transform your spirit into a Begotten Being.
By your gestation in the Created Realm your spirit can be born of God. This is your purpose on earth. Your are to traverse the halls of time and be born as a Son of God. When you complete this process, you will exit the Created Realm and enter the Begotten Realm. What is man that thou are mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and has crowned him with glory and honor.
When God designed the reproductive process for man, he made it a physical allegory of his spiritual process. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead.
According to the encyclopedia, the ideal gestation of a human baby takes two hundred eighty days. Two hundred eighty is the product of seven times forty (280=7x40). In the Bible, the number seven represents "spiritual perfection", just as there are seven days in the week, and seven colors in the rainbow. The number forty represents "probation", a period of time devoted to growth and testing.
Allegorically these numbers indicate that spiritual gestation is composed of seven periods of probation (7x40=280). Each of these probations is a period of testing that requires an interval of time. Completing these seven intervals of growth will complete your gestation on earth and bring forth a begotten spirit with you.
These seven steps for the gestation of a begotten sprit are verified in the Bible. They are the seven testings that shine as the gateway to immortality. He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee. To complete these seven periods of growth is the only purpose for your earthly life. The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. As seven washings, they remove the crust of carnality while your spirit is made new in regeneration. Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.
The seven probations of gestation represent the development of seven spiritual attributes. For practical purposes these seven attributes are formed in your spirit concurrently and their gestations overlap.
The incubation of all seven traits begins at the day of your physical birth, and ends at the day of your spiritual birth. During this time you must beget the seven enduring qualities of spiritual substance. These are Life, Endurance, Wisdom, Power, Hope, Faith, and Love."

The Spirits of Elohim
By the death and resurrection, Jesus Christ became agape-love and obtained all the fullness of God. With this achieved, he then accomplished the single greatest joy of his entire existence. He turned to his disciples and "breathed" on them.
In the garden of Eden, God fashioned Adam from dust and then "breathed" on him. This first breath of God planted a spirit from the Elohim into Adam's body, and Adam became a "living soul". A "living soul" is a feminine spirit from God, dwelling in a body of flesh. And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Now the resurrected Jesus had a room full of these "living souls" and he breathed on them a second time. This second breathing was the impartation of the "masculine" spirit of God. And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost [the seed of spirit life].
This breath of Jesus Christ was the male half of God's life. At that moment, the feminine spirits who occupied the room "conceived". Within them, a new embryonic spirit Son, begotten of God, was suddenly present. The disciples became spirituallly pregnant. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God.
You received your human life in two parts. Half of your life came from your mother and half came from your father. When these two cells join they produced a new being.
In like manner, Jesus also received his spiriutal life in two parts. Jesus was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit once in Mary's womb, and second time at the Jordan river.
In just this same fashion, all the Elohim-Adamites receive their spiritual life in two parts. The feminine half is given them at their birth, and the masucline half comes later on, from the resurrected Jesus Christ.
For out of His fulness as a source we all received. John 1:16 (Wuest) A seed from his resurrected spirit contains the male chromosomes required for your spiritual success. He that is joined to the Lord is one spirit. This spiritual union produces within you, a new begotten being, a Son of God. The Spirit beareth witness with our spirit that we are the children of God.
This newly conceived Son is not human - it is the literal offspring of God himself. They were not begotten from blood, nor from natural desire, nor yet from the design of man; but from God Himself. John 1:13 (Fenton) This spirit Son is then matured inside your Adamic body, through the trials and tribulations of earth. And why did God make you two one? Because He sought a godly offspring from your union. Malachi 2:15 (Amplified)

The Number of the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ
Quote:
"The Number of the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ
With all the talk about the mark of the beast and the number of his name, most people are familiar with 666, but they know little or nothing about the mark of Christ or the number of His name (3168 in Greek and 792 in Hebrew). Here is a blog posted by Pete Kelly that will help to answer that. It can be found on:
http://www.homewithgod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=175
The Bible tells us that "in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God." Later John writes that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We're also told that "all things were made by Him." It is a true statement, then, that our Lord Jesus Christ is the Creator of all things! So why would we be surprised if we found that God used math?
He invented it, didn't He? Of course He did!
The Holy Bible was written in Hebrew and Greek . . . the Old Testament in Hebrew and the New Testament in Greek. These two alphabets have both "alpha" and "numeric" values. For example. . . In Hebrew "aleph = 1", "beth = 2", "gimel = 3" and so on. Likewise in Greek "alpha = 1", "beta = 2", "gamma = 3" and so on.
It is interesting to note that the title "Lord Jesus Christ" has a numeric value of 3168 in Greek, and 792 in Hebrew, and it is evident that these two numbers are found to repeat all through the creation.
For example...the mean diameter of the Earth is 7920 miles....792 is Lord Jesus Christ in Hebrew. If we place the Earth in a box that it would fit in precisely, we'd have a box with 4 sides that each were 7920 miles wide.......7920 x 4 = 31,680.....3168 is Lord Jesus Christ in Greek.
Look at a map of Israel...you will find that the location of Bethlehem is at latitude 31.68 degrees east......3168 is Lord Jesus Christ in Greek. The distance from Bethlehem where Jesus was born, to Jerusalem where he was crucified and resurrect is 6 miles.....6 miles is equal to 31,680 feet.......3168 is Lord Jesus Christ in Greek.
The thickness of Earth's atmosphere where the mixture ratio remains most constant is 60 miles....60 miles is equal to 316,800 feet.......3168 again!
Astronomers have determined that our Sun is merely one of over a billion other stars that make up the Milkyway Galaxy. They've determined that our Sun resides out near the edge of one of the spiral arms of the galaxy, and they've determined that our galaxy is spinning, which is common amongst galaxies. They determined that it takes our Sun 220, 000,000 years to ride around with our galaxy for one galactic rotation. One complete rotation is equal to 360 degrees......220,000,000 x 360 = 7,920,000,000,000.....792 is Lord Jesus Christ in Hebrew!
This relates to the speed that our Sun is actually traveling through outer space as it rides around with our galaxy during a galactic rotation, which is 600,000 m.p.h. Amazingly.....600,000 m.p.h. is equal to 3,168,000,000 feet per hour.....3168 again!
The distance from the Earth to the Sun is 93,000,000 miles. The Sun provides "light" for us on Earth. Jesus said, "I am the light of the world". Jesus also refered to the speed of light in the Bible! Did you know that? He sure did! Matthew 24:27 For as lightening cometh out of the east and shineth unto the west, so shall the coming of the son of man be. Notice that he said "shineth unto the west"....Jesus is implying that "light" has "motion"....which wasn't discovered until about 80 years ago or so. Needless to say...we now know that the speed of light is 186,000 miles per second....okay...remember the distance from the Earth to the Sun?......93,000,000 miles?......Okay.....93,000,000 miles coverted to inches is 5,892,500,000,000 inches.....that number divided by 186,000 is 31,680......3168 again!
Am I boring you guys yet? There is much more....but I'll stop with one more....the following example is the distance from each planet in our solar system to the Sun, only the zeros have been removed to save space....and a zero is merely an empty place holder any way....okay....here we go.....Mercury = 36, Venus = 67, Earth = 93, Mars = 142, Jupiter = 483, Saturn = 886, Uranus = 1782, Neptune = 2793, Pluto = 3672. When you add all these numbers the total is 9954......a circle with circumference of 9954 has a diameter of 3168!!!! Praise our Lord Jesus Christ!!!!!
I hope you've found these examples to be exciting and revealing. What an AWESOME GOD we serve!!!! Peace to you and yours, and may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ remain with you always!"

Have We Touched a Dead Body?
The church under Moses failed to establish the kingdom of God in the earth for they only had realized a Passover anointing.
Then the church received a greater anointing to help usher in the kingdom of God at Pentecost 2000 years ago, but because this anointing or feast was accompanied with leaven, this leavening spread through the body, leavening nearly the whole lump, except God had kept a remnant unto himself. This falling away caused the church under the Pentecostal anointing to fail in establishing the kingdom of God in all the earth.
There is another anointing(realization of) to arise within the corporate body of Christ that the feast of Tabernalces has to teach us, I believe, that will enable this firstfruits company of people to bring forth the kingdom of God into this earth in a way that we have never seen before to make us "the restorers of the breach, the ancient ruins that have lain waste for generations, the restorer of paths to walk in."Hallelujah!
I think that most of God's overcomer people are operating Now to the best of their ability with what knowledge and power that they intimately know. I, for one, know for sure that I can't do anything without the anointing of God arising in this temple, be it in a 30, 60, or 100 fold operation.
We as this Overcomer Corporation, all together as One Man, I believe, are to be presented unto the Lord as the following pattern I will try to share was outlined in the OT for us. Everything in the laws of the OT were prophetic descriptions, pictures of the plan of God being worked out in us individually and then corporately and ultimately in all the earth.
Dan. 7
"Until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came when the saints possessed the kingdom.
And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heavens shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominion shall serve and obey Him."
Now, one of these OT laws involved a cleasing ritual that was required when you touched a dead body. We need to remember that although all these pictures were drawn with a people that lived in the small land of Israel, they were adumbrations of truth(something that faintly foreshadows or prefigures a greater truth) and the greater truth was that God was using them to speak of his greater plan for the whole world.
The feast of Tabernacles was an 8 day feast...in order to fulfill the law of Ex. 22:29
You shall not delay the offering from your harvest and your vintage. The first-born of your sons you shall give to Me. You shall do the same with your oxen and with your sheep. It shall be with its mother seven days; on the eighth day you shall give it to Me.
According to the law, anyone that touches the dead body of a person would be unclean for seven days. Humanity is unclean for seven days until they are fully awakened in God. Num. 19:11 says,
The one who touches the dead body of any person shall be unclean for seven days.
God told Adam, "In the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." Man became mortal....dead men walking. All of us has touched a dead body....our own. Paul told us in Romans 8 that even if Christ lives in you, your natural body is dead because of sin and guilt,(imputed to us because of Adam) even if your spirit is alive because of the righteousness of Christ. But, hallelujah, if the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in us then He will also restore to life our mortal perishable bodies. And this restoration from the grave of mortality will reveal or broadcast us as God's sons and our freedom from death will be an outward expression or sign to the rest of creation, representing the unvoiced longings that all men have in them for joy and peace and eternal Life to become a reality in their lives and ultiimately in this world. They have not known how to find this place within themselves...but just as Jesus was a pattern of freedom to us, we will serve as a pattern of freedom for them. Now, I know we are doing that now according to the level of our anointing and development in him, but there is a 100 fold dimension of this coming of the Lord within us that will enable us to fulfill this high and holy calling to the max.
This 7 days of uncleanness is true for the greater of humanity for this statement brings you to the end of the 7000 years or 7 days of man. And also remember that Nebuchadnezzar had 7 years pass over him before his right mind was restored. He was a picture of the greater of humanity; that all would not be coming to salvation before the end of the 7 days. The age that follows this 7 is the 8th Day or eon which has been called the age of the ages or the eon of the eons. Just like there is a Holy of the Holies...it is more holy than just the Holy Place, so in this age of ages, all men will come to the realization of who they are in God, for God will be all in all...everything in everyone experientially.
But there is a firsfruits harvest of people unto God, to whom this cleansing and anointing happens earlier in order to make them kings and priests unto God in order that they might rule and reign in Love as restorers during this age that is now before us.
Will try to share a little more on this subject of touching a dead body later......I find that I really need to write to deliver my own soul, talking to myself, trying to give voice to that which stirs within me however well or poorly articulated it is. Most of us that have been in the wilderness have had to do that...encourage ourself in the Lord. King David said he encouraged himself in the Lord too.

I will just share these few scriptures with you from the Amplified version about body salvation. All that any of us can do is to share what is real in us, and hopefully with grace.
Phil 3:11, 20 & 21
That if possible I may attain to the [spiritual and moral] resurrection [that lifts me] out from among the dead [even while in the body].
But we are citizens of the state(commonwealth, homeland) which is in heaven, and from it also we earnestly and patiently await [the coming of] the Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah, as Savior,
Who will transform and fashion anew the body of our humiliation to conform to and be like the body of His glory and majesty, by exerting that power which enables Him even to subject everything to Himself.
God bless,
Karen

I totally agree with you(my response to someone who commented) about our on-going union of soul and spirit....but I'm still trying to share about physical immortality....probably just didn't make myself clear enough....the salvation of the body...that salvation that is demonstrated, I believe, at The Corporate birthing of the Body of Christ....or as Paul called it, the manifestation of the sons of God.
But this salvation, this eonian Life of the ages, encompasses so much more than just physical immortality....this is a salvation that brings us into a glory that I don't think that any of us have begun to know in its fullness. There was the singular coming of the Lord manifested through Jesus, and I believe that this Corporate Coming of the Lord fulfills his second appearance. We are that coming of the Lord that all the church is looking for..."Surprise, surprise", says Gomer Pyle. :)
Everything up until this birthing, I believe has been our training for the throne. In like manner, Joseph was pulled directly out of prison and placed upon the throne...who would've thunk it. We are that nation that is born in a day, too!
This is the first time I have written on some of these things, so I'm still trying to find my 'see' legs of presentation. But I will have to give credit where credit is due. Stephen Jones is gifted in bringing so many of these OT things up into the light of Christ. I have been blessed by many of his insights.
"It is certainly true that Christ came and now indwells us, for this is the mystery that Paul mentioned in Col. 1:27, “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” [my comment: this is the appropriation of God in us individually] However, this is not the whole picture, for God will also inhabit His corporate temple.[my comment:this is the firstborn corporate son, I believe] He cannot do this until every living stone has been quarried in the earth and shaped to fit in its place."
Do you recall how that all the stones of Solomon's temple were quarried off site...this has been our individual wilderness experiences that have shaped us, where the Christ was being formed in us. It says that the stones of Solomon's temple when brought together were assembled without the sound of a hammer.
1 Kings 6:7
When the house was being built, its stone was made ready at the quarry, and no hammer, ax, or tool or iron was heard in the house while it was in building."
Hallelujah! all the hammering and chiseling, and making of these perfectly fitting stones had already been done before they were brought together....they were temple-ready to fit together.
And as we have said elsewhere, at this temple's dedication, the glory so filled this temple made of many stones, that no man could stand to minister.
Ahh, but a greater temple than Solomon's is in the making and at its dedication ceremonies the glory of God will be seen radiating from a people who appear like unto the Son of God. \o/
