The Spirits of Clay

Post 269

“Of course!”, you say while rolling your eyes; “Different kinds of spirits too.”
But are you surprised? By now you knew the scripture would go there, right?

I realize these posts seem numerous and long and random as I draw many various threads into this very large and complex tapestry, but when it is finished the picture should be remarkably clear by the experience of the adventure even more than by the information intellectually received.
* * *

If we accept the premise that the waters are the Type of the spirits, and that these spirits are mixed with clay to form a man that is then injected with life by the Breath of God to create a living soul, then we can return to the evaporation Type and see its accuracy when we die to ourselves as it says:

“For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s” Romans 14:7-8.

This is the meaning behind the bold statement of the three Hebrew youths before the Furnace:

“Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so (being cast into the furnace as the king said), our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up”
Daniel 3:16-18.

Clearly these three did not know if God would or would not deliver them from death in the furnace, in fact the odds were stacked fully against them that he wouldn’t, yet still, worshiping his gods in order to save their lives was not even a consideration to them. They were not frantically thinking quickly; “How can I get out of this with my life and still not offend God?”
Their reply did not say that God would for sure keep the king from chucking them in, they said; if God so desired he could deliver them from being chucked in or the resulting death of being chucked in.

The confident phrase and he will deliver us out of thine hand” is not a statement of confidence that God would indeed keep them from experiencing the furnace, but that IF God so desired he could and would; and if not, he would still, on another level, deliver them out of the king’s hand, which was the whole contest that the king had created (v.15c).
I really can’t tell if these three guys had insight that they would be delivered from physical death, but by their statement, I don’t think so. What they knew was that God would deliver them from the king’s hand because he made such a challenge to God. The reason for this event is because this is a Type of the Great Tribulation after Daniel was symbolically “Raptured” by his unexplained absence in the narrative.
Just as these three Hebrews faced the flames of Nebuchadnezzar’s furnace, the new Jewish Christians, that miss the Rapture before their conversion, will trust Christ’s deliverance whether in the furnace of torment or through it as we saw Typed in evidence by both the dead and the survivors of God’s people in the holocaust, such as survivor Corrie ten Boom and her sister who did not survive. The Antichrist king will not be able to harm these people either way, and this is the meaning Paul intended as he wrapped up his previous comments of v.1-8:

“For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living” Romans 14:9.

So what could make such a concept possible if a real death of the clay is still just as much a factor as it was before they believed? I propose that it is a metamorphous of the spirit. This is the unexplained meaning by having added; “and revival”, which has multiple applications to the believers depending on whether dead or living. Christ is Lord of them both through a revived spirit, as well as Lord of each by his dying and his resurrection, which precedes their own;

“And as touching the dead, that they rise…He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living…” Mark 12:26-27.

Just as a lowly caterpillar is earthbound to a very confined space of a few leaves, there comes a point in time when a metamorphosis takes place in her. She is still fully the same DNA of the ugly leaf crawling caterpillar, but now she is beautiful, and liberated; SHE CAN FLY!

In physical death our soul is liberated but we leave behind our bodies. By further analysis this is in fact still accurately Typed in evaporation because the metamorphosed water molecule also leaves behind the body of water from which it was liberated. A word play? Sure, but by pun it speaks the truth. Yet this is not the most interesting part; there is still another process pending:

Christ has declared that when all those designated to be killed have been killed (Isaiah 57:1, Revelation 6:11), he will make a grand sweep and raise even their body that they left behind, and then those that remain alive, in a seemingly instantaneous quantum-leap, he will liberate the whole “body of waters” like a whole lake instantaneously jumping into the sky leaving nothing but a dry crater where it was a lake just a moment before. Do you struggle with the concept? We are provided the Type extension by all those tiny delicate butterflies ending up migrating (http://www.monarchwatch.org/tagmig/fallmap.htm) across thousands of miles to gather in Mexico! I imagine such a thing would be hard to grasp for the leaf crawling caterpillar too.
But is the idea of an entire lake evaporating instantly really so much different than the common pealing of layers from its surface? Just because you have never seen it before doesn’t negate the scientific probabilities provided in the “DNA instructions” of the chemical bond in H2O. You just have to excite the molecules enough to move as one like a flock of Starlings! This is called a “Revival” among living Christian caterpillars turned to butterflies, and a “Rapture” when the butterflies are eventually flocked home.
The excitation in the spirit is scripturally called a quickening:

“And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins…Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened (4806) us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus; (why?) that in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus (*1) Ephesians 2:1,5-7 (see also Colossians 2:13).

“For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened (2227) by the Spirit:” I Peter 3:18 (see also I Corinthians 15:36, Psalm 119:50,93).

Quickened 4806 suzoopoieo; from 4862 and 2227; to reanimate conjointly with (figuratively):-- quicken together with.

Quickened 2227 zoopoieo; from the same as 2226 and 4160; to (re-) vitalize (literally or figuratively):-- make alive, give life, quicken.

4862 sun, soon; a primary preposition denoting union; with or together (but much closer than 3326 or 3844), i.e. by association, companionship, process, resemblance, possession, instrumentality, addition, etc.:-- beside, with. In composition it has similar applications, including completeness.

4160 poieo; apparently a prolongation from an obsolete primary; to make or do (in a very wide application, more or less direct):--…

But before that unusual day of migratory flocking comes, Once we realize that the waters are spirits, we see in evaporation the caterpillar to butterfly Type; When man was made by God he mixed with the dust some pure earthborn mist water from the new earth. The completely earthen clay then is temporal, but in an innocent way (Genesis 2:25).
But not long into this adventure man was confronted with an option, a choice, a forbidden desire, and he chose to disobey. His spirit was instantly corrupted not by the product of the sin but by iniquity itself, which was so added to his formerly pure nature; his clay was marred by not holding the shape it was given and the shape was not held by an additional water content weakening the holding properties. As a part of his new miry nature, he passed down this marred clay through the waters of his DNA. We declare this marred son of Adam as having an “intrinsic sin nature” (*2), which we see proven out when a toddler begins to wail in “disinheritance” when a playmate chooses something that he himself had not even thought of until that moment. Covetousness, Greed, Selfishness, Anger, etc., are all a part of his very fibers from birth as he cries like a fire alarm when he is hungry or uncomfortable or lonely; “I want what I want now!” This son of Adam starts off with Adam’s corrupted spirit (Psalm 51:5) and it only gets worse from there unless altered by a purified heart and a right spirit by evaporation (Psalm 51:10-12).

When the risen Jesus Christ excites your spirit of waters enough to be evaporated (transformed) into a gaseous (spiritual) state, your body remains earthbound but your spirit begins to soar into the realm of God without the contaminates such as salt. You actually see everything from a new perspective, from “a birds eye view,” from the perspective of God himself, and not from your former earthbound self-centered viewpoint.

Very similar to this spiritual liberation is the soul’s liberation at death, apparently described in many first-person narratives of people dying, then returning. They tell us that while they were liberated they floated above their bodies looking down as from the ceiling. In their spiritual state they had little concern for the recovery events going on below them as they watched like a curious third-party observer of a car crash.
When your spirit is similarly liberated in Christ, the cares of this body of clay seem to be insignificant to the new importance of the spiritual reality that you were not previously aware of. Your perspective has changed. You have the mind of Christ (I Corinthians 2:16, 3:14, 4:4, Philippians 1:27-29, 2:5-8. Etc.) and everything old somehow becomes new (II Corinthians 5:17-20, I Peter 4:1-4), the old isn’t replaced, it just becomes new, revived, quickened.
But that is not where it ends; as Typed by rain, once your earthborn spirit is transformed, it then condenses along with others in this elevated perspective (Typed in Acts 2:1-5) and is returned to a functionally useful state in the still earthbound body of waters (humanity), and so falls as rain on the mountains to travel through many adventures in the streams of the earth along the way (Proverbs 11:25, I Corinthians 3:6, Jeremiah 31:12, Isaiah 58:11), where having completed one task, your spirit is again refreshed by a renewing evaporation and your humanity is refreshed by a new pure mist like dew!

“My root was spread out by the (refreshing) waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch. My glory was fresh in me, and my bow (administering authority) was renewed in my hand. Unto me men gave ear, and waited, and kept silence at my counsel. After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them. And they waited for me as for the rain; and they opened their mouth wide as for (drinking) the latter rain” Job 29:23.

“For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; while we look not at the things which are seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal” II Corinthians 4:16-17.

This renewing is not reincarnation; that is simply Satan’s perversion of this process of a quickened spirit that transforms the function of this same body into a minister of Jesus Christ. The change is so real and complete that it might as well be reincarnation but all within the same lump of clay; It is appointed for man once to die and after that the judgment (Hebrews 9:27). But now we can see how, without the instructing Spirit of God, such a scriptural concept can be construed to mean reincarnation.
It is the sun that excites the surface water molecules to evaporation, which exposes the next “layer” to be so excited. By our own liberating excitement unto Christ we expose those near us to the Son. Since we believers now possess the Son in us (Galatians 2:20) making us greater than even John the Baptist (Matthew 11:11 + John 5:36, John 5:19-32, Romans 2:14-15, = John 14:12, Zechariah 8:16-17), we have the potential to excite those near us even if we are not near the surface due to some environmental agitation of the waters or even overshadowed by the clouds of winter by the wicked evaporation unto another “Anti-Christ” sun/son (see post 189 Sunburn http://when-did-reason-die.blogspot.com/2011/05/sunburn.html).
Such a potential Holy nuclear chain reaction deep within the dark lake has unspeakable possibilities if we would simply allow our glorified waters to be so excited by His Spirit within us. But instead, like water in winter, the “religious leaders” protect themselves from the Son by growing a hard earthbound crust of pride Typed as winter’s ice. This sealing “top layer” of spiritual “protection from radicalization” ensures that even the liquid water below them does not evaporate either:

“But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in” Matthew 23:13.

“And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; and also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction” II Peter 3:15-16.

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:6.

This rigid “winter-effect protection” is all within the earthborn waters of common humanity. Obviously influenced by the seasons of time and ages and “other” cold waters, but still well within humanity itself. This becomes the earthbound stagnant waters of our spirits mired in sin even without mingling the “They” Clay to the degree of actual offspring.
Hosea hints to us the cure for this earthbound chilling is knowledge, but am I just “borrowing” his verse and wrongly applying it to my own analogy of water/spirit? Let’s see:

“Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee”
Psalm 51:10-13.

We see that there is a clear connection between the heart and the spirit; both are complex and hard to explain motivations of why we “do what we do”. Let’s see how the scriptures use this and if it fits my water/spirit application:

“And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh: that they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God” Ezekiel 11:19-20.

“A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them” Ezekiel 36:26-27.

These verses appear redundant but notice the subject of whom they are written about changes from “them” to “you” (with the exception of a single case of “you” in the first passage that I will explain later).
So it seems evident that “we” and “they” are both supposed to sit around waiting for God to do this wonderful work of “Grace” that he promised he would do, right? Welllll, not quite.
Notice that couched between these two redundant promises we find this:

“Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?” Ezekiel 18:31.

So it seems just as true that God clearly requires us to do this new-heart and new-spirit work ourselves! How can He have it both ways?
We find the answer in the previous verses (18:29-30) indicating that we accuse God of not having equal ways, like being judged in a balance for comparable weights. The accusation is that God is not just in his complaint!
Let’s read God’s reply directly:

“Yet saith that house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? Are not your ways unequal? Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin” Ezekiel 18:29-30.

Clearly we have a warped perspective of why things are the way they are, and so we put the blame of our condition on God! Frankly I hear this ALL THE TIME from Christians, though they refuse to actually come right out and say it. They wait around in sin and iniquity for God to come and give them this promised new heart and spirit, which he seems reluctant to do:
“If he would simply fulfill his promise, which I am patiently waiting for, then I would be fixed and wouldn’t keep sinning all the time! But since God fails to fix me but still judges me for my iniquity, it is plain that God’s ways are unjust”; i.e. unequal.
So how can God do this?
The answer comes in the contingency verse that follows the first redundant passage of the promise:

“But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD“ Ezekiel 11:21.

So is this all just a big circular reasoning empty promise; “I will fix you if you fix yourself, and if you don’t fix yourself I won’t fix you”?
Let’s explore this problem to see if scripture gives us the answer, and just to make it hard on the scriptures to provide a reasonable answer, let’s look at the New Testament where his promise of God-provided Grace is abundant:

“For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God…But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:” Colossians 3:3,8-10.

Obviously grace has been accessed by these, and so the promise of a new heart and spirit is also received, so how is it that these still need to be encouraged to put off the things of their old hearts and spirits?
We see hidden in this passage that the key of excitation unto evaporation (i.e. renewal) is in knowledge.

“This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
But ye have not so learned Christ; if so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness”
Ephesians 4:17-24.

So we see a chemical bond in the basic elements of the waters; a two-part composition that creates an end result. A God-provided heart and spirit, and a human-reception and implementation of that heart and spirit. The successful implementation is accessed through knowledge. And it is for this reason that God declares:

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children” Hosea 4:6.
God himself declares these to be his people, but they, like the gentile unbelievers, rejected his knowledge in favor of emotion. And so my “top-layer-protective-ice-barrier” example rightly fits the religious leadership that hides the people under their authority from the saving knowledge, while giving them a proxy that has no saving power to evaporation but provides a good illusion with only subtle yet catastrophic differences (I Peter 2:19, Genesis 3:1, Acts 13:10, II Corinthians 11:3, Genesis 27:35).

“So, exactly; how is God Just in his ‘you have to fix yourself or I wont fix you’ concept?”
Good question.
Remember the contingency verse of his promise?

“But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD“ Ezekiel 11:21.

This condition is found even after his giving of the promised new heart and spirit, and so this shows us that the new heart and spirit can be resisted or rejected or corrupted by those to whom it was given (see post 168 The Heart http://when-did-reason-die.blogspot.com/2011/02/heart.html). These are those who sit around in their sin still waiting and blaming God for not rescuing them from their iniquity that they love with their heart.
He already came and already gave but they would not receive it because they loved their detestable things and their abominations. I pray this is not you! But it must be you if you are still waiting patiently without receiving.

We see this truth played out in the parable of the Prodigal Son of Luke 15, who like Jacob, was given by the Father his promised inheritance but he squandered it in his detestable things and abominations (Luke 15:12-13). And now the foolish boy finds himself destitute in a bad age (v.14), and yet no one provides a rescue or uplifting aid (v.15-16).
Where was God in all his troubles? Is this just some test of God that in faith he must endure? How many years as the son of the father, did he spend in spiritual destitution while thinking himself just? And, for-cry’n-out-loud; why did his father not come to rescue him! Clearly his father does not love him or care for him.

But this is not the expression of the parable. We later see that the father was so heartsick for his son and pined for his return that his ever vigil eye saw his son coming while he was still a long way off (v.20) much as we also pine for the coming of our Lord (I Thessalonians 5:1-4, II Peter 3:9-14).
My point is that after the promised inheritance was given to the boy, that promise has been given; there is no more of that promise to be given to him (Hebrews 6:1-9, 10:26-31). At this point in the boy’s very pitiful condition he should not be looking for any “wire of money” from his father to bail him out of his troubles, it is up to the boy to wake up to his own responsibilities and take the cause of his condition upon his own back. This is the only way he will ever come to the right answer:

“And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!” Luke 15:17.

Gone was the false blame of his father’s inequality for making him suffer, or his patient waiting for his father to drive by looking for him. Gone was his self-centered corruption of “wanting my father to love me,” this boy was now truly in need and he could no longer afford the luxury of such emotional head games. He began to seriously look for the right answer even if it meant crawling back to his father in shame… “That’s it! That’s the right answer!”

“I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants” v.18-19.

This boy had no self-pity illusions of self-rejection that he was actually no longer his father’s son, but his heart was right to conclude that he really was unworthy to bear that title because of his squandered inheritance. He determined to go back in desperation and beg his father to make him as one of his servants, and it would be enough. He was not looking for his old room back; he was just hoping to get back on the property under the authority and care of this great man… who just happened to be his father.
But the illusion of determination does not fill your belly; he actually acted on his plan:

“And he arose, and came to his father…” v.20a.

But have you ever wondered how he got back to his father’s place? Verse 13 tells us the boy went into a far country to waste his substance. So with no money for the bus, motels, and roadside diners, what kind of struggle and adventure of trial do you imagine it was to get home? The narration doesn’t say, because it doesn’t matter. The boy was finally committed to returning home and so he did.

“But I thought Hebrews 6:4 and 10:26 said that such a return was impossible.”

Yes it does, but God is the God of the impossible!

“For with God nothing shall be impossible” Luke 1:37 (also Matthew 17:20).

A careful study of the Hebrews wording declares it is impossible to renew them, but the crack is left in the door for them to renew themselves as the prodigal son did, and as instructed by Ezekiel 18:31. But don’t for a second imagine that he had an easy road of it. At the very end of his rope this solution was the only possible salvation, and he took it, and in so taking found himself on the road home and under the watchful eye of his glad father. At the point of determined action the trials of the journey became insignificant and so in the narrative he simply “arose, and came to his father.” I have made just such a journey home from my wandering, and so can you.

Can’t Blame the Devil:
Before the days of Noah, the violence of man was the same self-centered, greedy, covetous, angry, earthbound spirit that was born into Cain by the fall of Adam. The same earthen spirits of fallen Adam and his wife are transferred to their offspring. This idea of multiple individual spirits is the meaning of plural waters even after the initial separation into two groups on either side of the firmament. Speaking now of only the earthborn group; they are all the same water group but many individual expressions of spirits as it is mixed with more dust to make more mankind through conception and birth. This is the uncomfortable direct interpretation of the Hebrew word waters:

Water/waters 4325 mayim; dual of a primitive noun (but used in a singular sense); water; figuratively, juice; by euphemism, urine, semen:-- + pill, wasting, water(-ing), [-course, -flood, -spring].

For our practical purposes let’s just call it “bodily fluids” and encompass the whole collection, which makes it plural. Man’s body is made up of about 65% H2O water (*3). From this “waters” comes the dregs of urine as well as the fluid of new life. These are all Types of the various spirits called waters within man, and that doesn’t include the Spirit of God that can also reside there. My point is that man passes his collective waters on to his offspring, both good and bad, so exactly what actually is the plural singular waters?
DNA... and more.
The destructive coursing nature of his spirit is also passed on to his children, and we see this phenomenon in children adopted at birth often “magically” retaining the “preferences” and moral weaknesses of a birth parent they never met. This is physically Typed by the adoption of “drug babies,” who carry the nature given by the sins of the parent. But while the physical representation is easily accepted and understood, the spiritual reflection is still a scientific mystery, but they will eventually figure it out.
What this mystery is, are the spirits of wasting passed on along with the DNA. So are people actually born gay? In a way, the answer must be “yes,” but in practical truth the answer is “no.” They are only born with a spiritual weakness to that nature, no different than to any other familial sin of which we are all equally accountable to abstain from; drugs, theft, anger, slothfulness, lust, etc. A propensity is not who you are until you act on it; it is a spirit that you have been given, which you must overcome, not with simple willpower but by the restoring properties of evaporation in Christ Jesus which allows you a new perspective on everything through a new heart and a new spirit.
In spite of the demonic involvement of Genesis 6:2 and 4, Genesis 6:5 holds humanity alone fully responsible for the violence… but the order and wording of v.3 recognizes that there was an additional element that aided man to become so violent: There was introduced another kind of waters.
Waters being the Type for spirits, we can see now that mankind in their contentment to remain un-liberated from their beloved sins became stagnant groundwater whose nature is not to become liberated, but rather odiferous when even slightly agitated; Violent.

By these contrasting reactions to the trials of our faith, can you now see the evidence of transformation shown in James that encourages such an unexpected response?

“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into diverse temptations” James 1:2.

What reaction do you have when your life’s waters are agitated; excitation to evaporation unto Christ, or moved to self-protecting violence? This foundationally vulnerable yet independent violent spirit of humanity, displayed even more strikingly in the female gender, is what captivated the spirits of heaven called the sons of God (i.e. the waters above the firmament), to remove from their proper place and fall to earth in the desire to mingle with this “wonderfully” mired humanity (Jude 1:6-8, Revelation 12:9). But like the cold clouds of winter hiding us from the warming Son, Hollywood produces an appeal for this abomination in movies like City of Angels (read the plot now!), and many others like “Michael,” and Meet Joe Black, which I don’t need to see before criticizing the demon heart and spirit born of this iniquitous appealing mix.

More Gender Typology:
What is so appealing to most men about a beautiful girl with guns or tools or in other ways displaying a cross-roll “I can too” kind of conduct in a tool-girl-poster kind of way?
She is blending the glories of her vulnerable soft and beautiful femininity with the glories of a man’s strong hard and rugged world. I cannot explain why that is alluring, but the principle is that in Type she is, in the accentuation of her feminine role by implementing the masculine role, acting out the glorified humanity while submissive to God. It’s just plain alluring to a man in the same way girls are drawn to the reverse presentation of the same idea in the movies mentioned above; Powerful angels giving up their strength and abilities to join her in her vulnerable world because of love.

In the Type of the tool-girl’s cross-roll display, God wishes to grant power to weak humanity by inviting us into his spiritual world while still in the vulnerable flesh. He gives us his tools and his abilities and finds it attractively appealing when we use them. But it’s only appealing to him when we remember to accentuate our humanity (feminine Typology) as we do it. Wash your hair, put on your makeup, dress yourself like an obvious girl, and still go do what needs to be done in a world that doesn’t fit that “job description.” Now THAT is really attractive!
But somehow that same appeal becomes quite offensive when she then wants my job. In her serious focus on the job itself, she no longer has time to do her hair, is uninterested in useless makeup, and finds girl’s clothes beneath her; she now wants to “be the man.” Now she is not attractive, she is mockingly called a “truck.” This is the butch, tattooed, cigar smoking, snuff chewing, foul-mouthed female truck-driver that hates women. Now that is really revolting!

The difference is not in the events of the job she does; it is in the role that she wants to play while doing it. When she forgets that she is a girl she has lost all her appeal, on as well as off, the job; regular guys are not attracted to guys. And God is not attracted to god wannabees as they go about building his kingdom with his tools in their wisdom. But a regular guy will make himself nauseating to help a feminine girl work beside him in his “man’s world,” and so will God:

“Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, ye are gods?” John 10:34.

It’s not about the job it’s about the gender you want to play.
God is not concerned about actually loosing his job as if you could actually take it away, he welcomes our involvement with him on his job and in fact he likes it (Matthew 28:18-20, II Timothy 4:2, Matthew 24:14, Genesis 2:18). He equips us with His Power and His Spirit (Ezekiel 37:14) and transforms us with our own liberated spirit of knowledge to enable us to be a useful participant in His Project (Ezekiel 36:27), and all the while he thinks it’s endearingly cute that we want to work with him. Just don’t ever forget your gender-typology role and begin to argue about his leadership choices. That’s a line once crossed that continues to grow until like Lucifer you presume yourself God’s equal in how things should be run. Though both genders work side by side, the Men’s Room is still the Men’s Room and you’ve got a room too. This principle is Typed in the genders, and with that Type we see many complexities that we will not cover here, so put away your offense which is not meant by this discussion. But in the easy offense lies an exposure of the additional situation already in play.
* * *

The Additional Situation:
Like today’s woman easily offended when discussing gender rolls, we seem to be just as easily offended that God would remind us of our humanity that needs to depend on him so much if the relationship is going to work, “How dare he say that sexist garbage to me!” And Satan quickly steps in to offer a fast-track “shoulder” to independent godhood; “You are gods, as He himself said, so who needs Him?” Today’s liberated woman has shown plainly that she really doesn’t need a man as once thought. And likewise humanity doesn’t need a God, (though many gods at their convenience and for their pleasure is a great idea!). This is Mystery Babylon, the mother of harlots and abominations (Revelation 17:5).

But just who is this that comes to comfort your offense by giving you an understanding shoulder to cry on? As the beautiful covering cherub (Ezekiel 28:14-16), Lucifer began to think of himself as God’s equal (Isaiah 14:14) and was offended that God would think of him as a “mere” helpmeet. But since he was not treated as the equal that he saw himself and the multitude of merchandise (success) had show him to be, he had a violent reaction (Ezekiel 28:16), which he shares with you in “understanding” your problem. Yet the more interesting part is what started this downward spiral in the first place:

“Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness… (3314) Ezekiel 28:17a.

brightness 3314 yiph’ah; from 3313; splendor or (figuratively) beauty:-- brightness.

In his Typology feminine role of being a helpmeet to the masculine God, Lucifer became self-focused on the power of his incredible beauty. The inward focused attention to the splendor of that beauty perverted his own thoughts about himself and his self-absorbed reasoning twisted his wisdom. But how does a creation ever get to the place of actually concluding that he is the equal to his creator? It can be nothing other than that the power (splendor) of his beauty observably affected God so much that he saw his own power over God!
It is almost rightly said;

The weaker sex is really the stronger sex because of the weakness of the stronger sex for the weaker sex. - unknown

Lucifer experienced the truth of this saying but mistook that apparent weakness in his Creator as something that could be exploited. And then the hammer fell as quickly as the second half of the same verse!

“I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee” Ezekiel 28:17b.

“They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; that made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?” Isaiah 14:16-17.

Not so hot now, huh? Apparently there is a difference between a “weakness” toward someone desired (we call it love) and a weakness of impotency by that desire. King Solomon understood this truth as he instructed his son:

”Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings” Proverbs 31:3.

This is in nowise suggesting that women be diminished or kept from reading or an education or jobs or equality in humanity as some religions and nations do, or that women should not be loved unreservedly by their husbands (Proverbs 5:18-19+, Song of Solomon 4:9-10+), rather Solomon was saying that as a king and a man he should refrain from surrendering the thing that makes him a king and a man: His internal fortitude, his self-possessed ability to lead, his confidence, his manliness; the protection of his family and kingdom.
As much as God loved beautiful Lucifer and gave him so much attention and power that he began to think he was God’s equal, that love was not impotence and it did not keep God from maintaining his righteous and perfect authority that belongs to him alone as God. He cast Lucifer out as a self-centered usurper bent on stealing his kingdom and glory.

As glorified humanity through the liberation of evaporation unto Christ Jesus, we too have that kind of power with God. He loves us that much (John 3:16, Ephesians 5:25-28) and it is true that:

“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” Philippians 4:13.

But although they delicately call it a “glow,” don’t ever forget that women do sweat; they get offensive BO, and their charm diminishes when they forget to be girls even as they sweat. As the feminine roll in this relationship with God, we need also to be careful to shower regularly in God’s word (Ephesians 5:26), comb our hair and put on our makeup in our good works (I Timothy 2:9-10, Ephesians 2:10, Matthew 5:16), and dress ourselves in the finest of feminine clothes in God’s forgiveness and righteousness (Job 29:14, Isaiah 61:10), and not forget to mask our daily BO by the perfume of Christ’s counsel and wisdom through prayer (Proverbs 27:9, Exodus 30:35-37, Revelation 5:8, 8:3-4), that we may be always presentable to our God and King and Lord and Spouse, even as we work beside him in the muds of the morter and miry clay;
Such “paraphernalia of femininity” are the instruments of our faith!

But even prostitutes have their own kind of feminine paraphernalia, so clearly, all ways of humanity are not proper before God. Example; Do not burn strange incense before him (Exodus 30:9, Leviticus 10:1-2) and don’t burn incense unto other gods (I Kings 11:8-9); incense being counsel and acquired wisdom in prayer. God really doesn’t like the stench of our own concoction, even if in thinking it should please him, we offer it up in worship.
This is really no different than a woman being personally offended when she asks her husband if he likes her dress and he says “No.” Why is he supposed to like her taste when she doesn’t feel the need to appeal to his? Be honest, she is not usually upset that her dress choice didn’t please him, she is usually upset that he didn’t like what pleased her. So who is it really all about? The answer to this riddle is found in the spirit behind the query.

There is clearly a serious miss-conception when we become instantly offended that God would remind us of our humanity or that a man would remind a woman of her gender. Femininity is not a demeaning roll; it’s your glory! (I Corinthians 11:15). As Typed by God, Only a woman can be the love of a man through marriage, and Only humanity is the bride of God and his Son Jesus Christ, and by reminding us of our humanity God is in effect putting us back on the pedestal from which we fell. While this is profound on its own merits, it has even more meaning when stacked against the non-earthborn waters that do not have this Bride of God option (I Peter 1:10-12). The spirit that motivates our actions is far more important than the actions themselves.

It is the applied non-violent nature of Christ that while wrestling in the mud with the violent, we make God smile because the femininity is just so dang cute in such an environment (Ephesians 6:10-18). Vulnerability dressed in God’s armor is irresistibly attractive to God! And should be as appealing to us as a woman who wears her husbands workshirt as a nightgown while he is away on business. Is she thinking about how it makes her figure look good while she sleeps or is she thinking about the man she longs for?

But by a socially sponsored contention in the self-perceived shame of their genetic vulnerability, women today are easily offended when discussing gender, pre-assuming a negative connotation, and likewise humanity tends to become defensively independent to enhance their abilities to battle the violent. In otherwords; we learn to “drive truck like a man” because it gets the job done more efficiently;
“Go ahead, fight fire with fire.”

This can in fact increase our productivity, which makes us proud and more independent by proving our own ideas are better than God’s, but at the same time it is offensive to God, who’s job it is to worry about the productivity and has instructed us not to fight that way. Suddenly He has a contentious employee who thinks she/he can run things better than the boss because the productive results prove it.
Now role/gender has everything to do with it when it had nothing to do with it before, like Obama’s first term campaign pulling the “race card” when no one but him was talking race. Like the female gender, humanity is sure a natural at making everything His fault!;

“IF there really is a loving God why does he allow so much suffering?”

His reply? “You’re the keeper of the house, you tell me why there is so much suffering there!” (Genesis 4:6-7+6:5=6:6).

You really don’t want Dad to fix this problem! But he will if we don’t, he’s just giving us time to figure it out. But in our independent pride we will try virtually every wacky idea that comes to mind while refusing to implement His instructions.

And now we see a striking similarity between the self-glorifying feminine spirit of mankind blaming God for our unhappiness, and the self-glorifying feminine spirit of Lucifer doing the same. NOW is the perfect time for Satan and his band to swoop in as beautiful sisters of the gender roll, and bond with humanity in a common “You understand me!” self-pity against the chauvinist masculine God. This is Lesbianism.
In the order of Romans 1:26 the heavenly spirits left their first estate and fornicated with mankind in a Lesbian kind of way (Jude 1:7). You really need to study the one-chapter Jude.
But in the emotionally appealing sisterly bond of mutual understanding, don’t be mistaken to think that fallen Satan is not really in this for himself, just like you are. He is going to twist everything to work to his own self-serving advantage while he plays you beautifully like a crying violin. In both cases, the downward spiral is a self-focus. Pride.
I am not speaking against women; this is a discussion on humanity. Who is your faith really about? Your happiness in the relationship will tell you the true answer! (*4).

How did the angels breed with humanity?
Spiritually they encouraged the stagnification of the earthborn waters until it was compatible with their own fallen waters, and then infused themselves with the spirits of mankind when the foreign material would not be rejected. In otherwords man became violent by self-focus, which opened the door to an unearthly violence like Hitler himself, simply one of many in the 4th Diverse Beast age that began with Rome.
Both man’s spirits, and the fallen angel’s spirits, are now earthbound, incapable of evaporation because they are hidden from the Son, but feeling liberated because of the unification between themselves, and so freed from an apparent need for God because of the fellowship.
God’s form of liberation is a liberation from the restraints of our humanity while still human, but Satan’s form of liberation is our humanity liberated from God. The one transforms our humanity while the other changes it to something else. We are talking the Types of “kind bending” in principle, and “gender bending” in application. It’s all a very murky soup of Abomination.

“But that is speaking primarily spiritual, how was this done physically?”

Now that we have a good handle on the chemical makeup of humanity at its spiritually molecular level, we can begin to explore how these basic elements can combine to create other properties.
Water is about as non-flammable as anything there is, but have you thought about the fact that water is made up of only Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms? Hydrogen is highly flammable and Oxygen makes things burn better, so why does water not burn? Obviously the combination of elements can produce very unexpected results. So what element was removed from, or added to, the earthborn water that allows for such extraordinary violence as we see in Genesis 6:5? I suggest that we should examine the nature of violence itself to see what actual results we are expecting, and then see if the molecular elements of man can produce this violence, or what additional element-combination is needed.

The spiritual waters above the firmament, though appearing very much identical to the spiritual waters below the firmament, obviously have slightly different properties much as humans and horses have very similar DNA but still quite obviously are different flesh (I Corinthians 15:39).
Since H2O water is only water when you have 1 Oxygen and 2 Hydrogen, it seems that the difference in the plural waters must be another factor. Let’s think about this as we explore temporal humanity in the question of; “how did angels actually breed with humans?”
* * * * * * *

(*1) Ages To Come:
A bit off topic but this verse clearly shows us that there are yet more ages to come in which such grace will not be available in this same way. Imagine being found to have come short of such free grace when it was offered in its very short window in your lifetime, and for eternity being used as an example of unexplainable failure! (Hebrews 4:1-2, Romans 3:23-26).

(*2) Intrinsic: …1. Belonging to the constitution, nature, or essence, of a thing; independent of that which is contingent or acquired. 2. Anatomical, Included wholly within an organ or limb, as certain groups of muscles.

Thus intrinsic sin is born into a man’s very being by the waters mixed with his dust. This flies fully in the face of pagan theories that man is basically good and learns to be evil, though intrinsic sin does not suggest sinful man cannot learn to be more evil or even acquire other elements of evil to add to his intrinsic nature.

(*3) Water Content:
“The human body is 90% water at birth. The water content in the body of a grown-up person decreases to 70%. The water content drops to 50% with age. So it must be water that keeps humans alive. Man depends on the quality of water in terms of physical and psychological state of his body. The latest studies show that water can have either beneficial or detrimental impact on the body.
Lev Skvortsov, an academician of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, doctor of technical sciences, a member of the Russian Ministry of Health consultative council on drinking water issues, shared his views on how humans should treat water, Lev Skvortsov started the conversation by extolling water.
- Water regulates the temperature of the body, it humidifies the air we breathe, it helps organs assimilate the nutrients and expel the toxins and excess salts. Water helps keep the blood pressure down, thus reducing the probability of a heart attack. The above “job description” for the water is not by any means complete…”
- (http://english.pravda.ru/health/21-07-2006/83458-water-0/)

“Your body requires a certain amount of water to function properly. When your water-percentage gets out of whack, and you have too much or too little water in your system, you may experience negative effects. To maintain a healthy water-percentage, drink fluids regularly and avoid diuretics such as caffeine.

Function
Water plays an essential role in almost all bodily functions. Water acts to transport nutrients and gases throughout the body, and also enables cellular reactions to take place. Water carries waste products out of your body in the form of urine and feces, helps lubricate your joints, and cushions your organs. Water helps you maintain a stable body temperature during exercise and environmental heat stress. Water is so essential to human life that you can expect to live only a few days without it.

Normal Percentages
Normal and healthy water weight in the human body varies based on age, gender body composition. According to the book "Exercise Physiology," water constitutes 65 percent to 75 percent of muscle and only 10 percent of fat. So, the more muscle mass you have, the higher the percentage of water weight you'll have.
The book "Sports Nutrition" indicates that water accounts for roughly 50 percent to 60 percent of most people's body weight percentage. Because women usually have a higher body fat percentage than men, they tend to have a lower overall percentage of water weight.”

(*4) What About Him?
Yes of course men have failed their own gender typology roll as an image of God, and this has compounded the problem as well as the solution. But our discussion is not about fixing God is it?
Have you ever wondered why God designed a system where the wife is supposed to submit to her husband even when she is sure he is wrong?
(I Peter 3:1). Do you really think Sarah was in favor of Abraham hauling her son up the mountain to sacrifice him to God? This is the same guy who repeatedly instructed her to tell folks she was his sister because he was afraid. That never turned out well, though you have to admit it didn’t turn out “bad” either. But what does scripture tell us of Sarah (besides that she was very beautiful)?

“For after this manner in the old time holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement” I Peter 3:5-6.

The key here is not that she called him lord, or that she subjected herself to him. The key is that she trusted God. All the godly women of old did, and their subjection to their husbands was their adornment unto God regarding this trust. The wisdom of their husbands was not a factor other than the dumber the man, the more glorious the adornment showing their trust in God.

“And he (God) said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.
Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me”
II Corinthians 12:9 (see I Corinthians 1:25).

Wives, is your husband a pitiful excuse for a man? Glory in it, that the power of Christ my rest upon you more than on others with less pitiful husbands. Place your trust in God by seeing Him work through your obedient subjection in spite of his failures. Do you claim to be the daughter of Sara in the faith as men are the sons of Abraham? You can only claim this title if you act like her. Let God deal with your husband’s shortcomings as He sees fit, you keep your eyes on God as the Church keeps their eyes on Christ even in the difficult circumstances brought on by the pitiful governments of mankind.

“Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God” I Peter 2:13-16.

Women, don’t suppose your gender has gotten the short end of the stick, we are all in the same boat with perhaps different oars. As a man, this is as hard for me to do with my incompetent government as a woman toward her incompetent husband. The key is to remember it’s all about trusting God in our obedience through the intervention of prayer, and not an aid to our own ideas of how things should be.

As a further complication that we don’t have room here to properly explore, There are slave wives that although in a really bad situation outside of their will, they must apply this principle and instruction because like it or not they are the wife of their captor.
Likewise, Obama is a usurper of the office of President and the recorded facts show the ACORN ballot stuffing “mock wedding” that won him the seat. I am no longer a free citizen of America but a slave citizen to his administration and like Daniel I must trust God while I subject myself to this new governance. This is not an easy thing to learn to do as we know that Daniel did not “sell out” to the Babylonian ideology (Daniel 1:8), yet he found himself so favored as to be third in the kingdom.
If only I were so wise! (James 1:5).

We are running out of time to learn how, because as Christians we were always supposed to have this wisdom even with a good authority. Now we get to glory in our infirmities as our greater need to trust in God shows perfect in weakness. Adorn yourselves in the humility of a meek and quiet spirit of an evaporated heart possessing God’s elevated perspective (I Peter 3:3-4).
In otherwords; see reality through his bigger picture plan, and then use your femininity to influence your authority.

We are entering an age when the one-chapter Philemon will be of great value to understanding a proper attitude in the circumstance of slavery. See also I Corinthians 7:2-24 which instructs us to have no strong feelings against the circumstance of slavery if we so find ourselves there. It is but a circumstance. Can you acquire freedom? Then by all means take it, but if not, do not hate your captor but rather serve God as a free man that chooses to be God’s slave for God’s sake.
And so it is with wives who find their husbands unsavory.
