Announcement
THIS MESSAGE IS THE TRANSCRIPT OF A LIVING EPISTLES' MEETING. PUNCTUATION AND MINOR GRAMMATICAL CHANGES HAVE BEEN ADDED FOR THE PURPOSE OF CLARITY.
John 7:17-18
17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it
be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. (KJV)
Definitions
THERE IS NO MALE OR FEMALE IN CHRIST JESUS (Gal. 3:28). Accordingly, all textual references to MALE and FEMALE point to spiritual principles, and the words MAN and MEN, as well as the pronouns, HE, HIS and HIM, include, WOMAN, WOMEN, SHE and HER.
CHRIST JESUS is the only spiritual male. Accordingly, all powers and principalities other than Christ Jesus are identified as female IN RELATION TO HIM.
The powers and principalities which have incarnated this fallen world (2 Cor. 4:4) are male IN RELATION TO FALLEN MANKIND, and female IN RELATION TO CHRIST JESUS.
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (John 8:32)

ENDNOTES
1. Capernaum Translated Third Energy Center. Christ Jesus does not acknowledge the first three energy centers where the fiery serpent is, but counts the heart (4th) center as the 1st center. So the 3rd energy center of the righteous time line is the brow (6th) energy center.
2. Capernaum - Word Study.
Strong's # 2584. Kapernaoum (cap-er-nah-oom');
Of Hebrew origin [probably 3723* and 5151**]; Capernaum (i.e. Caphanachum), a place in Palestine:
*3723 orthos (or-thoce');
adverb from 3717; in a straight manner, i.e. (figuratively) correctly (also morally):
KJV-- plain, right (-ly).
**5151 tris (trece);
adverb from 5140; three times:
KJV-- three times, thrice.
# 3 = 3rd energy center
CONCLUSION: Strong's # 2584, Kapernaoum is the righteous 3rd center, or the third energy center in the righteous time line.
3. Christ Formed. Abel, the righteous seed which was imparted to Isaac through Abraham and Sarah, is appearing today as the engrafted word (James 1:21). The righteous seed grafts to the heart (4th) center of those who hope that Christ will be formed in them (Gal. 4:19).
Rev. 17.17 Because God [Christ Jesus] has put Himself in their (human) spirits [engrafted word] so that the mind of Christ should shoot forth [justification] and lead [the fiery serpent], the female opinion down under Christ Jesus [supernatural man] . . . .
4. Entered Translated Joined. The Alternate Translation amplifies the Greek word rendered entered Strong's # 1525, and translates it twice: to join, and to bring into existence.
Jesus knew that Christ was formed in the men of Israel, and joined His mind to their Christ Mind to help them to overcome Satan, the troops of the fortified fiery serpent, which is Leviathan's household . (See, also, Note # 7.)
A spirit tie with Jesus forms the grain of mustard seed *that moves mountains (Matt. 17:20). (See, also, Note 22.)
*See study on grain, Rev. Chapter 12 - Part 5
5. Again Translated The Other. The Greek word translated again, Strong's # 3825, can also be translated, on the other hand, or the other side.
The Mind of Christ was formed in the men of Israel, which made them double minded, or double sided, men (James 1:8).
Strong's # 3825, Translated AGAIN, Derived From Strong's # 3823 - to WRESTLE.
Gen. 32:24 says, a man wrestled with Jacob until the day brake. The Hebrew word translated wrestled, Strong's # 79, can also be translated, bedusted, light particles, or vaporous, signifying a spiritual man. It also means to grapple -- to draw and hold an enemy ship alongside.
Adam, the bedusted one (Gen. 2:7), (Michael joined to the resurrected Abel), wrestled with the fiery serpent until he pierced through the darkness of Jacob's carnal mind, and the light of Christ, the spiritual Day appeared (Acts 26:8; 2 Cor. 4:6, Eph. 5:8, 1 Pet. 2:9).
6. Days Translated Timeline. Leviathan, the Primordial Serpent's counterfeit time line, is the other timeline. True immortality is only in Christ Jesus (1 Tim. 6:16).
7. To Cast Down. Strong's # 3825, Translated WRESTLE Is Another Form of Strong's # 906, to CAST DOWN.
Christ in the men of Israel struggled to rule over their carnal mind, but could not overcome Leviathan, the collective subconscious mind of mortal man, who was woven together with the fiery serpent. So Jesus joined His mind to Israel's righteous side, and they overcame Leviathan and cast down the ascended fiery serpent (see, Note # 15).
Amos 3.05 Shall [the men of Israel] surrender to the fiery serpent because they don't have the spiritual strength to restrain her? Or shall someone be strong enough to overcome the fiery serpent who is possessing Elohim's breath, and take her captive?
Matt. 12.28a [But] understand, that the man who the Spirit of God is appearing in,
29a Enters into Leviathan's household, separates [the fiery serpent,Leviathan's] wife,(1) and seizes and binds himself to [the fiery serpent in that man]
8. No Translated Heart Center.
1. Strong's # 3370, or 3371? Both Greek words can be translated no, but only 3370 can be translated in the middle. The King James Version says no, the Alternate Translation says in the middle.
The New Testament is a translation, of a translation, of a translation. It was written in Aramaic, then translated into Latin, then translated into Greek, and finally translated into English.
The Interlinear Bible (Biblesoft and International Bible Translators, Inc.) shows both the Textus Receptus and Nestle based numbers for the Greek words because these two sources occasionally disagree as to which Greek word should be used.
The Alternate Translation gives precedence to the Hebraism (Hebrew usage) if there is one, but always chooses the translation that flows with the spiritual understanding of the whole verse.
The Textus Receptus says that the English word no, is a translation of Strong's #3370, but Nestle says that it is a translation of Strong's #3371. The Alternate Translation chooses Strong's # 3370, and translates it in the middle.
2. Word Study - Strong's # 3370.
Medos (may'-dos);
of foreign origin [compare 4074]; a Median, or inhabitant of Media:
KJV-- Mede.
3370 Medos-
Mede or Media = middle land
a Mede, a native or inhabitant of Media, a well-known region of Asia whose chief city was Ecbatana
CONCLUSION: The heart (4th) center is in the middle, half way between the three lower centers [sometimes called, the lower room, the lower window, the serpent's world, or the world under the sea], and the three higher centers [sometimes called the upper room, the upper window, or the world above the firmament].
The heart center is the place where the light meets the darkness, to project an image of the visible world.
9 No, Rendered Heart Center, Should Be Translated Twice. The Interlinear Bible (Biblesoft and International Bible Translators, Inc.), shows that the Greek word translated no in The King James Version, and in the middle in The Alternate Translation (Strong's No. 3370) appears twice in the Greek text, according to The Textus Receptus, but only once according to Nestle (see, Note # 8, Conclusion).
The King James Version translates the Greek word once, but The Alternate Translation translates it twice, both times as heart center.
10. Word Translated Jehovah's Representative. The Greek word, logos, translated word in this verse, means the original creative idea which generates the spoken word and its visible representation in the world of images. Jesus, the Logos, is Jehovah's thought form.
11. Jesus Preaches The Doctrine Of Christ. Jesus preached about the fiery serpent, her marriage to Leviathan, and the powers and principalities in their energy centers, and how confession of sin and repentance would defeat them..
12. The Men Of Israel Had A Relationship With The Spirit Of Elijah. Those who had a spirit tie with the Spirit of Elijah. The King James Version suggests that the Spirit of Elijah was in John, but he was in Jesus. (See, also, Note # 3.)
13. Bringing Amplified - TranslatedThree times. The Alternate Translation amplifies the Greek word translated bringing (KJV, Strong's 5342), three times: prompted from within, to endure the rigorous transition, and without condemnation.
14. Study of Spiritual Principle - Dissolution.
The Spiritual Principle Of Dissolution
Introduction
The fiery serpent is the spiritual worm (Mk. 9:44, 46, 48)* which will eventually be fully born either in the image of the Primordial Serpent, or in the image of Jesus Christ [the Seraphim*]. The fiery serpent is the seed of the Primordial Serpent that survives, in a disembodied state, the death of the personality and the physical body.
* See, comments on spiritual worms and Seraphim, Rev. 12, Part 4 & Part 5
The fiery serpent descends deeper and deeper into physical matter until she reaches the root energy center, where she coils up and goes to sleep. When roused, she begins her ascent into the heart (4th) center, dividing herself over and over again like a developing human embryo, to form, or create, her children, the powers and principalities (Eph. 6:12, Col. 2:15) that occupy the energy centers. The Hindus call these powers and principalities, gods and goddesses.
There is no such thing as unbirth in our world, but for the purpose of understanding the Spiritual Principle of Dissolution, we can say that, as the fiery serpent descends back into the root energy center, she dissolves, or swallows up, or gathers back into her womb, the powers and principalities that she herself created, or birthed -- and they cease to exist. This is the Spiritual Principle of Dissolution.
The fiery serpent migrates periodically between the root and heart (4th) energy centers, until she makes the heart (4th) center her permanent home. (See, Note # 15.)
The fiery serpent's ascension into the heart (4th) energy center is the beginning of the resurrection of damnation (Jn. 5:29), the false immortality of this divided age.
The Problem
How Are The Powers And Principalities Dissolved?
Mark 2:3 talks about the dissolution of the powers and principalities who occupy the heart (4th) center. The fiery serpent, and the powers and principalities who she creates, dissolves, and reforms by her own will, are all one, albeit one divided, spiritual entity. The fiery serpent in the root energy center, and the powers and principalities in the higher energy centers of the counterfeit timeline are, collectively, the fiery serpent in a divided, or expanded, state, and the name of the fiery serpent in her expanded state is Satan. So how is Satan condensed?
The Solution
Christ Jesus Dissolves The Fiery Serpent Into Himself
The Scripture says that THE GOD OF THIS WORLD hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
The creator is the god of his creation, but this Scripture could not be true of Christ Jesus. So who, then, has incarnated this present world? The Primordial Serpent is responsible for this inferior, mortal world. Jehovah never intended for humanity to die from generation to generation.
The powers and principalities that occupy the energy centers are an illegal expansion of the fiery serpent, who is both the woof threads (foundation in the root center) and the warp threads (powers and principalities in the higher centers), of this inferior world.
Christ Jesus in the individual shall dissolve and absorb the powers and principalities who occupy the energy centers of the counterfeit timeline (see Note # 6 & 14, The Problem) into His own Glorious timeline (See, Note # 10), as He ascends to meet and marry the glorified Jesus Christ, who is in the crown (7th) energy center.
Christ Jesus and the glorified Jesus Christ shall occupy the regenerated energy centers (Matt. 19:28) of the righteous timeline, Satan shall be swallowed up, or condensed, and the fiery serpent shall become the bestial background, warp threads of the regenerated creature, as Jehovah created her to be. Christ Jesus, alone, shall be visible.
Conclusion
The personality is spiritually active in witchcraft when the powers and principalities are ascended into Satan and occupying the heart (4th) center, and spiritually active by the Spirit of Christ, when the powers and principalities are dissolved into Christ Jesus. The first condition is death, the second is life.
NOTE: Message #5, Satan swallowed up, manifested this spiritual principle in seed form. To anyone who may be wondering whether or not the early messages are still valid, the answer is a certain yes, and very much so. Some may be able to walk right into this deep teaching, but most will need to hear the early tapes. If anyone is struggling with this message right now, they should consider listening to message No. 5, Satan Swallowed Up. I exhort you all to beware of pride, and to keep spiritual growth and the wisdom of Christ, rather than knowledge, as your primary goal.
15. Satan, the Ascended Fiery Serpent. The fiery serpent is at the height of her embodied spiritual potential when she possesses the heart (4th) center (see, Note ## 9 & 8 ¶2., Concl.), which is also called the ariel center, because she ascends from there into the crown (7th) center, to feed on Leviathan's cosmic energy. Satan is the combined energies of Leviathan and the fiery serpent.
The energy of the individual can adequately sustain the sleeping fiery serpent, but she needs Leviathan's reservoir of cosmic energy to live in the heart center, where she engages in continuous, illegal spiritual activities. (See, Note # 17).
Rev. 17.02 [The fiery Serpent is the Woman] who performs perverse spiritual sexual acts with the army officers [spiritual men] of the Earth, because Leviathan, the collective subconscious mind of mortal man, which is the offspring of the Primordial Serpent's reproductive force, makes [the fiery serpent], the permanent resident of the Earth, desire her [Leviathan].
16 Satan's Troops - The Unconscious Mind Of Mortal Man.
Zeph. 3.03a And that's why Satan, the Wild Animal's unconscious mind, is like an army of fierce young soldiers executing the sowing and reaping judgment upon herself, because of the sins of her carnal mind,
3.04b But Leviathan shall be cut off because of Elijah's righteousness . . . .
Rev. 17.16 And you saw the Beast's mortal army officers [Satan, mortal man's unconscious mind] which will persecute the adulterous Woman [personality] . . . .
17.17 Because God [Christ Jesus] has put Himself in their [human] spirits [engrafted word] so that the mind of Christ should shoot forth [justification] and lead, the female opinion [the fiery serpent] down under Christ Jesus [supernatural man] . . . .
17. The Fiery Serpent's Adultery. Christ Jesus will put an end to the adulterous, spiritual sexual union between the fiery serpent and Leviathan, the collective subconscious mind of mortal man.
Dan. 9.24 Jehovah has decreed that the whole Wild Animal shall depart from this perverse age, and enter into the age of eternal righteousness through union with King Adam, her true husband, who will stop the Woman's adultery by engraving [the fiery serpent, who is] the false prophet, with Elohim's nature.
Therefore, the whole Wild Animal shall experience the ends of the ages when Elijah's Spirit expands into her many members, raises Adam from the dead in each individual, and restrains the Serpent's rebellion, by scabbing over the lower energy centers,
Amos 3.12 Elijah snatched his human spirit away from the fiery serpent and, so, the Israelites in Samaria shall be delivered from their idolatrous and adulterous relationship with the fiery serpent, and the Gentiles shall be delivered from their common law marriage to her.
Rev. 17.1 And one of the Angels who had the power to execute the judgments of God said to me, I'll show you the sentence of the emotional, adulterous [spiritual] Woman, who is joined to [Leviathan], the spiritually mature mind that enforces the law [of sin and death] . . . . (See, also, Note # 15.)
18. To Break Up Means Confession Of Sin & Repentance. Strong's # 1846 - to Break Up, Can Be Translated to Dig Through.
Ezek 8:8 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.
9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.
10 So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about. (KJV)
The personality is the wall that surrounds the mind, which is the house that the spirit lives in. Jehovah said to Ezekiel, don't look at the outward appearance, but look within. Dig through your personality and look at the sins of your mind, and you will see why you lack the strength to form a spirit tie with me. Unconfessed sin is the only thing that can separate us from God.
The phrase dig through the wall is also found in Ezekiel, Chapter 12, a pretty distressing chapter according to The King James Version. But the spiritual understanding of Ezekiel, Chapter 12, is that all of the destruction is directed towards the fiery serpent, so that Christ Jesus can appear and ascend in the individual.
Unconfessed sin prevents those who have the seed of God (see, Note # 3), from forming a spirit tie with Jesus. (See, also, Note ## ?, ? ¶2 & ?.)
Zeph. 3.01 Woe to the Wild Animal which is unclean because of her rebellious mind.
3.02 She didn't obey Jehovah's voice, or benefit from His instruction, because her carnal mind wasn't overthrown, and her carnal mind wasn't overthrown, because her [carnal mind] wasn't sacrificed to Jehovah, and her carnal mind wasn't sacrificed to Jehovah, because she wouldn't confess her sins and repent.
19. Bed Translated Root Energy Center. The descended fiery serpent sleeps in a single spiritual bed in the root energy center. The significance of this is that she who is supposed to be married to Christ Jesus, is unmarried, and sleeping alone.
20. Jesus Sees Christ In The Men Of Israel. The men who understood Jesus, confessed their sins and repented (see, Note # 18, 20 ¶4 & 22), and agreed with Christ Jesus within themselves to cast down the fortified fiery serpent who was ascended into their heart (4th) center. And when the fiery serpent was forced her down under Himself, Christ Jesus appeared (Rev. 20:2-3). (See, also, Note # 5, ¶5.)
The Sanskrit (hindu) name for the fiery serpent is Kundalini.
The personality that is in agreement with Christ Jesus must prevail over his carnal mind, [BUT CHRIST JESUS APPEARS ONLY AFTER THE SINS OF THE CARNAL MIND ARE EXPOSED, CONFESSED AND CAST DOWN].
Confession of behavioral sin alone will not lead to true repentance, because failure to confess the secret sins of our carnal mind, is to be in agreement with Leviathan (Matt. 12:30), which makes it impossible for Christ Jesus to pierce through the fiery serpent. (See, also, Note # 5, ¶5.)
21. Christ Is The Faith Of The Son Of God. Christ is our faith. He is the Mind that was in Jesus Christ, reproduced in the personality. The carnal mind has hope, that the same mind which was in Christ Jesus (Phil. 2:5) will be formed in the personality (Col. 1:27).
22.Forgiveness Of Sin. Jesus saw that Christ was formed in the men of Israel. He knew that when they confessed the secret sins of their carnal mind, they would overcome Leviathan, and that Christ Jesus, (see, Note # 5), the double portion who can move mountains (the ascended fiery serpent joined to Leviathan), would appear. (See, also, Note # 4 ¶3, 20 ¶4, & Note # 14, The Solution, ¶¶ 4 & 5.)
Sin that is resisted and not acted out receives fewer stripes (Lk. 12:48), but failure to act out the sinful thought, does not forgive the sin.
The only true forgiveness of sin is the dissolution into Christ Jesus of the principality that suggests the sinful idea. From this point of view, it makes no difference whether the sin is acted out, or not. We will continue to get sick and die, until every aspect of our sin nature is swallowed up into Christ Jesus.
1. 0 Leviathan, the Devil and Satan, are present expressions of the primordial Serpent who appeared in the Garden. They are all spiritual females.
