(continued on from Derek Prince book entitled Eternal Judgement)

"The Only Thing Stopping You From Attaining Truth, Is The Assumption You Already Have It"

An observation by some anonymous wise soul

My own understanding of "what is Truth?" is simply this, it is that Truth which "makes us free" that is to say, a Truth that penetrates/pierces through the 'veil of deception' which are the lies&deception of Satan the devil, who 'is' the father of lies (John 8:44) and the prince of this world (John 14:30 - 12:31 - 16:11), the evidences of which can be observed 'clearly' by "those who have eyes to see and ears to listen."
I would go further to say that 'all' Truth will eventually lead one to the Origin of Truth, Who is none other than our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ, Who informs the reader himself that "He is the Way, the Truth and the Life" in John 14:6.......Amen
But, most importantly, it is my own humble but firm opinion, that this Truth is 'only' obtainable to those who's sinful ie willfull 'pride' is not acting as a barrier/obstacle to embracing this most important of Truth'.......leastways, this is my own personal experience.

Please read the review on Mark Twain' book Mysterious Stranger by goodreads member Eli, which is located approx 6 down in order and is very, very detailed in its synopsis.
Please pay special attention to the rather unusual ending (much like the ending in the Holy Bible ie Book of Revelation, which is very, very abrupt and one that i doubt many people take seriously today.
Incidentally, i believe 100% in the Word of God, insomuch as "it says what it means and means what it says".......Amen).
NOTE: it has been impressed upon me to also highlight the many 'manifestations' ie things such as money, expensive gifts/items etc, that occur in the story and which are brought about by the character calling themselves Satan (the astrologer).
Sadly and rather worryingly, i have also recently witnessed two sisters in the Faith get 'sucked-in' by this manifestion doctrine of Neville Goddards and his ilk, who are termed as mystics, which are people who practice witchcraft but who also profess to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.
The problem is, is that these mystics fall short of 'confessing' Jesus Christ as their Lord & Saviour, of Whom died on the cross for their sins, was buried and Who was risen again on the third day (these mystics are nothing but wolves in sheeps clothing disguised as angels of light, as warned about by the Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians chapter 11:1-15).

Carrying on in the same context, there is a movie recommended by Chuck Missler entitled The 13th Floor (1999), which is essentially about a computer genius who's field of expertise is 'simulation'. There are many other movies such as Sliders and Sliding Doors, of which allude to an 'alternate reality', as do The Matrix film trilogy.
Then there are the movies They Live and Society and The Dunwitch Horror, all of which i, myself firmly but humbly feel are in ref to our so-called 'ruling elites', those of whom are the True ie real PTB pulling the strings behind the scenes of world government, especially today.
I hav'nt as yet seen The 13th Floor, but i do still strongly feel that this movie and many others similar in content are relevant to our perceived reality, most especially animated movies, where it is possible to make anything happen on screen.......watch episode 9 from series 23 of The Simpson' and please pay close attention to what you see (Disney films are 'not' the wholesome family movies that they would have you initially believe they are, as more diligent research would very strongly suggest is True).

I will now add some Scripture verse that in my honest opinion needs to be looked at and pondered upon more diligently, as i hope the text clearly shows. But first i would like to state to anyone who might be reading this post who is not too farmiliar with the Word of God ie Holy Bible narrative, then to read the Apostle of John, then the Book of Acts, and lastly the Epistle of Paul to the Romans, all of which are back-to-back, as these three Books give the reader a 'condensed' outlook/overview of the New Testament, and are in Derek Prince' own words "the three most important books in the Holy Bible with regards to its core message to the reader and seeker of meaningful Truth ie you&i."

Psalm 19 and 104 and The Book of Job Chapter 38, please read these verses very carefully and study/ponder on them, as there is great insight alluding to our perceived reality contained within them.

Please research in the Scripture verses alluding to our 'thoughts' ie minds (where the battle between good and evil, light and dark, takes place), as it can be seen ie evidenced that it is our thoughts that ultimately decide the choices we make in our lives and thus our 'fates', but not just in this life, but more importantly in the here-after everlasting life (our souls live on forever, it's where they eventually end up/habitat/abide/dwell that should concern us as individuals).
It is well worth noting that there is very little known about where our thoughts actually come/originate from and where our memory is stored.
I highly recommend the works of Pof Rupert Shedrake here on what he has termed as Morphic Resonance which i, myself, suspect is where the 'real' science concerning our True reality can be found ie touched upon, with the concept being that "it is our thoughts ie collective consciousness, which creates our reality."

The early Hebrews worshipped god's such as Tammuz, Ishtar and in this particular instance Remphan (who is Kiyyun or Chiun) and is referred to as the Star of Remphan, which is Saturn.
You will find these pagan gods referenced throughout the Scriptures.
There is a great website entitled Everything is Electric, which has some very interesting content regarding our ancient civilisations (circa 1000BC and beyond) such as the Messopotamians, Assyrians, Zoroastrians, Hebrews, Egyptians, Akkadians, Chinese etc, All of these ancient civilisations recognised what we today call the planet Saturn as the 'prime' sun, that's right, instead of that bright heavenly body we see traversing across our skies daily.
Needless to say that TPTB have decided that these ancients must have 'all' been deluded in some way, and so have omitted to tell us of these extremely important findings.
I do realise these claims sound fantastic to the layman, that is until you start to look deeper and ask questions, and keep on asking questions, that is, if your objective is to obtain Truth.
The book is entitled The Saturn Myth by David Talbot, and I urge you to please go read the reviews for said book which can be found both on here, Amazon and elsewhere to get some idea of the content.
Note: in Romans chapter 1, and from verse 18 upwards (entitled God' Wrath), it is explained to the reader just why our Creator Father is unhappy with His creation, and informs us that what might be known of Him here on earth 'is' apparent (rather obvious) but that we 'choose' to deny Him (because of our sinful pride) and as such He has given those particular individuals 'reprobate minds'.......to give you an example of just how True this statement actually is, you just need ask yourself 'how' it is our earth is supposed to be travelling in 3 'seperate' linear trajectories in space at varying astronomical speeds, while spinning and rotating in a corkscrew fashion, and yet we see the 'same' Stars night after night, year in year out and feel absolutely nothing by way of inertia down here on earth......Think! This is quite frankly impossible given the 'official' data from NASA.
Furthermore, long exposure images of our night skies reveal star-trails forming 'perfect' circles, which again is quite frankly impossible given the above 'official' data.
I have attempted many times to explain these rather glaring anomalies to those people who profess to believe in the official mainstream scientific expaination as to our earth's True nature, and 'every' time without fail i either receive the thousand yard stare off into the middle distance somewhere, or a proclomation "that's not what they taught me" to which i respond "but this is my point" or the ones who believe they are really smart answer your question with yet another question of their own, but i have 'never' had someone say to me "you know, that makes sense, I shall go and investigate more".......there are many, many more examples such as the one offered up here but I hope you see&realise that the 'real' problem here is 'sinful ie willfull pride.'

"Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise" 1 Corinthians 3:18

There is a popular theory regarding the Bible verses Genesis 1 and 2, that there is major 'gap' ie time lapse potentially between these 2 verses.
Both Chuck Missler and G H Pember (among others) offer up some very interesting postulations about why they believe this 'gap' theory to be of significance.
The Hebrew words tohu bohu, the meaning/translation of which is; "that which is laid waste, desert, emptiness, vanity; nothing."
The reason 'why' this is so important is because these words allude to the earth/world being 'destroyed ie laid waste; reduced to nothing'.
I also firmly believe this 'gap' theory to be True for many reasons, of which i shall begin with by offering up Scriptural evidences to help make my case (please see below).

"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done, it is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing under the sun.
Is there 'anything' whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been 'already' of old time, which was before us.
There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that come after" Ecclesiastes 1:9-11

"I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be forever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear Him.
That which hath been is now, and that which is now hath already been; for God will call to account that which has passed" Ecclesiastes 3:14-15

"And there are many other things that Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, i suppose even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written" John 21:25

"But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day 'is' with the LORD as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day" 2 Peter 3:8 (Psalm 90:4)

"In My Fathers house are 'many' mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you" John 14:2

"Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting 'to' everlasting" Psalm 90:2 - Psalm 103:17 - Psalm 41:13

'Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which Thou hast done, and Thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto Thee: if i would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered" Psalm 40:5. (Job 5:9 and 9:10)

"May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height" Ephesians 3:18

"And He arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And there was a great calm" Mark 4:39, Luke 8:24, Mathew 8:26, Psalm 107:29, Psalm 89:9, Psalm 65:7)

"Then came to Jesus the disciples apart, and said, why could not we cast him (a demon) out?"
And Jesus said unto them, because of your 'unbelief': for verily I say unto you, if ye have Faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and 'nothing' shall be impossible unto you" Mathew 17:19-20

"And he (Jesus) said, Come, and when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water to go to Jesus" Mathew 14:29

Please understand, it is only the 'level' of your belief ie Faith in the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, that is potentially withholding Their power 'in you'.......your Faith, such as it is, is 'everything'.

"Of 'old' hast Thou laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the works of Thy hand.
They will perish, but Thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture Thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed.
But Thou art the same, and Thou years shall never end"
Psalm 102:25-27

"I will overturn, overturn, overturn it (again and again and again); and it shall be no more, until He come Whose right it is, and I will give it Him" Ezekiel 21:27

"See that you refuse not Him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused Him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from Him that speaketh from heaven.
Whose voice then shook the earth: but now He hath promised, saying, Yet 'once more' I will shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
And 'this' Word, yet 'once more', signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things that cannot be shaken might remain" Hebrews 12:25-27

"And the heavens departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places" Revelation 6:14

"But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with a fervent heat, the earth also and the works therein shall be burned up.
Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all Holy conversation and righteousness.
Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness" 2 Peter 3:10-13

"Because the creature (creation) itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God" Romans 8:21

"Then i saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
And i John saw the Holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
And i heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God 'is' with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
And He that sat on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And He said unto me, Write: for these things are true and faithful.
And He said unto me, It is done, I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, I will unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son.
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Revelation 21:1-8

"God, who at sundry times and in diverse manners spake unto the fathers by the prophets.
Hath in these last days (2 Peter 3:8 and Psalm 90:4) spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He 'made the worlds'.
Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding 'all' things by the Word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high" Hebrew 1:1-3

"Thy Word is True from the beginning: and every one of Thy righteous judgements endureth forever" Psalm 119:160

I will now attempt to shed some light on said Scripture in the hope that someone (anyone) reading this post might find it edifying ie potentially lead them back to Holy Bible narrative ie Word of God.
Leastways, this is what i would most humbly but assuredly would hope to be the case. Amen.

Firstly, i would like to point out that the verse itself makes it 'quite clear' as to the context ie meaning of said verse, whatever it might be alluding to, and as our God is "not the author of confusion" (1 Corinthians 14:33) and as Holy Bible verse 2 Timothy 2:15 and 2 Timothy 3:16-17 informs the reader to "study the Scriptures, a workmen that needeth not be ashamed of his work, approved unto God, rightly dividing the Word of Truth:
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and thus profitable for doctrine, for correction, for reproof and instruction in righteousness, that the man of God might be made perfect, fully furnished unto good works".......Amen:
Then i believe it fair to say that the Scripture you see highlighted here 'is' very clear as to its portent, but will of course let you make your own minds up whether or not there is anything of note to see and read here.

The most profound verse to myself is that of John 21:25, whereby it states;

"And there are many other things that Jesus did, the which, if they were to be written down every one, I suppose even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written"

Wow, and i really do mean Wow, what an absolutely, incredibly profound statement this Bible verse actually is.
