Why avocados are so good for you

Avocados are a stone fruit with a creamy texture that grow in warm climates and are often a feature of Mexican and South American cuisine.

Also known as an alligator pear or butter fruit, the versatile avocado is the only fruit that provides a substantial amount of healthy monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). Avocados are a naturally nutrient-dense food and contain nearly 20 vitamins and........

Bait and Switch 3: God's Switch

The great PUN of History

 is Bait and Switch

His Name is as ointment poured forth

If the devil is a thief ,liar and a murderer from the beginning
then all that he offered us of freedom came out of his own self for self drive  to make gain at our expense
The earth had been given to the sons of men ONLY, not to angels.
He wanted to steal that birthright from us, He is a thief.
To do so he lied. He is a liar. He lied about God, He lied about us being able to live independently and be as God, which is his own lie he believes about himself. See Isaiah 14.
And he lied about death. He is a murderer. Surely you will not die, By infecting our spirits we were immediately on a death course. Death spiritually, death in our souls, and the inevitable after effect , death in the body.
The devil promised several things. All were lies. Through our submission to him, he stole our rulership over the earth.....or tells us continually he did, and he infected us with death. His own death.
The wrath spirit that is within his person infected us.

God likewise doesn't tell us straight away about all aspects of His switch.
But His switch comes out of  His continuous"Love for others " drive. Unconditional agape.
“Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard,
And which have not entered the heart of man,
All that God has prepared for those who love Him.”1 Corinthians 2:9

One of the reasons God gets us talking in other languages that we don't understand is that our minds would just not be able to take the nature of the information. So great are His promises.

John1 But as many as received Him,
to them He gave the right to become children of God,
even to those who believe in His name,
13 who were born, not of blood
 nor of the will of the flesh
 nor of the will of man,
but of God.

Right there you could end this post describing God's surprise switch.
To receive Christ, who is from the I AM, the eternal Now
we are receiving a man, but recognising He comes from God.

Now we could, like the disciples, be receiving a man in front of us, an ex-carpenter....but actually that doesn't help too much. Because outwardly He looks normal or like us. Only in the Spirit would we know He is come direct of God.  And that realm is outside of time anyway.
So actually receiving Him through preaching all this time later doesn't actually make any difference,
we are still taking the testimony of other people who have seen into the Spirit, and we are believing their Word, which also made the SWITCH from Darkness to Light in them
And now we receive this Word and also receive inward confirmation.....HEY, THESE THINGS ARE SO.....and we too become co-knowers, co-receivers of new birth.

When the Prodigal Son returned home and His Father saw  him afar off, He rushed to greet him.
He embraced and kissed him. Before anything.

The sons response is contrition. He had been to the bottom. It was a bottomline response from" the end of the universe of his own choice".

The Father on the other hand calls for
THE BEST ROBE
A RING for his finger
Sandals for his feet

Covering
Authority
THE Divine ability to walk things out

Rev.12They overcame by
the Blood of the Lamb.....the first layer in Christ
The Word of their testimony....the young men of 1 John 2 expressing/confessing their authoity
and loving their lives not even unto the death ...the father level....walking things out in Divine enabling.   Having our feet shod in the preparation of the gospel of peace.

Meditate on those scriptures and how they all interrelate.

The Switch: Our High Position

• But First How could this occur?
  In an outward way to an outer court people before the Holy Spirit was given, you can see God scratching His head trying to work out how on earth do you convey the two aspects of Christ's work on the Cross, which was ONE ESSENTIAL WORK in the Spirit in an outward way.
  The Two Goats is how He did it. And this is covered in more depth here.
  and then spills out into a second post here
  Our old man, old spiritual man, died. He had to die. As we enter the very Temple or tabernacle area in the outer courts, there is no discussion or prevarication, we look upon a brazen altar upon the death of a creature, looking in the Spirit at the Lamb of God who takes away the SIN of all the world. The sin spirit of all the world.
  But that death this side of our reality does not show Jesus taking that sin into death, andwhat happened there. So God wheels out the second image to show what happens beyond the veil of flesh.  The second goat is chased into the wilderness never to be seen again. The scape goat.
  We are not left dead, but the Holy Spirit leaves our old man judged in Sheol, and raises our spirit in Jesus as His Body is raised and given life.
  
  Romans 8 is a complete breakdown of how this works
  Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. 3 For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5 For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6 For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, 7 because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, 8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
  
  9 However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. 10 If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
  
  12 So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh— 13 for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15 For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!” 16 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.
  
  18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19 For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope 21 that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. 23 And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body. 24 For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it.
  
  Our Victory in Christ
  26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; 27 and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
  
  28 And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. 29 For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; 30 and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.
  
  31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? 33 Who will bring a charge against God’s elect? God is the one who justifies; 34 who is the one who condemns? Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. 35 Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 Just as it is written,
  
  “For Your sake we are being put to death all day long;
  We were considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”
  37 But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
  
• He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit
  However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you.
  What is "walking in the flesh"?   We all have flesh This phrase describes our former default before knowing Jesus. Our Romans 7 discovery that God leads us into is that my problem was sin , or the sin spirit manifesting in the the flesh or my body. It's not "Oh the devil made me do it." A kind of get out clause. No that isn't the point of Romans 7. It's getting us down a dark lone alleyway where there is no other thing or person to blame....just me....and I finally learn .....hey....being independent isn't independence.
  There is no such position of being a self run soul. An alone- I  .  Just to live and move I have to be empowered by a deity spirit. Either God....or a "derived god"......Satan who positions himself falsely as a god....
  
  but really He is NOT SEPARATE either, but has twisted God's empowering in on itself.....and he has become a self for others creature.....and the devil seeks to persuade man to join him in this apparent independence....but really he usurps us and then becomes our controller.
  Being a god in our own right is a lie.
  
  But that is not now our reality. Well it is if we choose it. If we set our minds on the flesh....as if there was an existence called self spiritual godhood....then sin abides in us still and reigns over our mortal bodies....
  
  but if we set our minds on the Spirit and confess that we have died in Christ and it is nolonger us that live, but Christ ....then this Becomes our new default. This is what maturity in Chriat is.

So unashamedly then our high position that the Switch, God's answering Bait and Switch, has brought us into is

Psalm 8


O Lord, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth,
Who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens!
2 From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established ]strength
Because of Your adversaries,
To make the enemy and the revengeful cease.
3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained;
4 What is man that You take thought of him,
And the son of man that You care for him?
5 Yet You have made him a little lower than God,
And You crown him with glory and majesty!
6 You make him to rule over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet,
7 All sheep and oxen,
And also the beasts of the field,
8 The birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea,
Whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
9 O Lord, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth!


Isaiah 53


Surely our griefs He Himself bore,
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed.
6 All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him.
7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He did not open His mouth;
Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,
And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,
So He did not open His mouth.
8 By oppression and judgment He was taken away;
And as for His generation, who considered
That He was cut off out of the land of the living
For the transgression of my people, to whom the stroke was due?
9 His grave was assigned with wicked men,
Yet He was with a rich man in His death,
Because He had done no violence,
Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.
10 But the Lord was pleased
To crush Him, putting Him to grief;
If He would render Himself as a guilt offering,
He will see His offspring,
He will prolong His days,
And the good pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.
11 As a result of the anguish of His soul,
He will see it and be satisfied;
By His knowledge the Righteous One,
My Servant, will justify the many,
As He will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore, I will allot Him a portion with the great,
And He will divide the booty with the strong;
Because He poured out Himself to death,
And was numbered with the transgressors;
Yet He Himself bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the transgressors.

Isaiah 7.14

The SWITCH means God is NOW NEAR US....Emmanuel
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign. Behold a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel.

Song of Solomon 2:3 
Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest,
So is my beloved among the young men.
In his shade I took great delight and sat down,
And his fruit was sweet to my taste.
4 “He has brought me to his banquet hall,
And his banner over me is love.
5 “Sustain me with raisin cakes,
Refresh me with apples,
Because I am lovesick.
6 “Let his left hand be under my head
And his right hand embrace me.”

Colossians 1:9




9 For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.

The Incomparable Christ
13 For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him. 17 He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. 18 He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything. 19 For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven.

21 And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, 22 yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach— 23 if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister.

Ephesians 1 then 2


Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love 5 He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. 7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace 8 which He lavished on us. In all wisdom and insight 9 He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Him 10 with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of the times, that is, the summing up of all things in Christ, things in the heavens and things on the earth. In Him 11 also we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will, 12 to the end that we who were the first to hope in Christ would be to the praise of His glory. 13 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is given as a pledge of our inheritance, with a view to the redemption of God’s own possession, to the praise of His glory.

15 For this reason I too, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which exists among you and your love for all the saints, 16 do not cease giving thanks for you, while making mention of you in my prayers; 17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of the strength of His might 20 which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 22 And He put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as head over all things to the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, 2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. 3 Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.

And finally concerning the Holy Spirit who is given to REVEAL all the things that are now ours in this DIVINE SWITCH

1 Corinthians 2


And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. 3 I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling, 4 and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

6 Yet we do speak wisdom among those who are mature; a wisdom, however, not of this age nor of the rulers of this age, who are passing away; 7 but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God predestined before the ages to our glory; 8 the wisdom which none of the rulers of this age has understood; for if they had understood it they would not have crucified the Lord of glory; 9 but just as it is written,

“Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard,
And which have not entered the heart of man,
All that God has prepared for those who love Him.”
10 For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God. 11 For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God, 13 which things we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words.

14 But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised. 15 But he who is spiritual appraises all things, yet he himself is appraised by no one. 16 For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

A wonderful gift to your life would be to spend days, hours and weeks committing all the passages in this post to memory.They are all so wonderful revealing all the things Jesus is and has done.Glory be to His Name. His Name is as ointment poured forth.

BBC and Free Speech

The book of Nehemiah describes Nehemiah as a cupbearer (poison taster) looking very glum in Nebuchadnezzar's Court.
Presumably after the emperor's humbling spell in the fields as an animal. "How can I look happy when Jerusalem lies in ruins?", remembering the Lords Word about 70 years of exile. Unlike people on Facebook, Nehemiah took God's Word to the day.
Nebuchadnezzar the world authority commissioned Nehemiah to begin reconstruction of Jerusalem.
Now you are going to see why I raise this today.
We DON'T have a world ruler yet, but the Bristish people have voted by 4% margin to leave Europe and according to our rulership manual this makes our decision binding.
OUR GREAT LEADER....US....have voted.
Now Nehemiah didn't have any problem with the GREAT LEADER but was commissioned by him to do the job.
But you would never know with the satraps who worked for the BBC and the rest of Rothschild's media beyond the River.
They did their utmost to sway the vote and bring the rebuild to a standstill.
Last night, the Conservative party dared to raise this matter of prevarication on the part of the media and this morning hiding behind the voice of a liberal MP they squealed " YOU SHOULD APOLOGISE TO THE GREAT BBC WHO ARE JUST THE VOICE OF FREE SPEECH".
Free speech? When was the BBC the voice of Sovereignty and free speech? Their very logo of ONENESS on BBC ONE is all about globalist rule under a globalist world government being sown into people's minds as warm cuddly and full of friendly hippos.
Every comedian they hire like Hugh Dennis reviles Brexit at every turn.

Hugh Dennis BBC Comedian

Anybody who dared recommend Brexit the BBC labelled as xenophobe.....and violent British National Party thugs.
Since when did BBC stand for free speech and the voice of the people? And now hiding behind the sofa where the liberal politician is speaking they trump up....
You tell em , you tell 'em
APOLOGISE to the GREAT BRITISH MEDIA for actually daring to raise the subject about European bias.
WHAT US? IN Lord Rothschild's pocket?BBC would say
Just because we have a Rothschild director doesn't mean you can possibly label us in favour of globalist elite rule?
US. Whiter than white BBC.
Excuse me, and apologise now!!!!

Bait and Switch 2 - God's Version of Bait

The great PUN of History

 is Bait and Switch

The "pun" is that pretty much the same technique
The same kind of "spirit switch"
but this time, not presented by a deluded fallen angel who wants to be  god of all yet rooted in narcissism and self-love

But One whose intent is holy and right towards us, whose fixed position as Norman Grubb describes in his book "Yes I am", is not to lie, but to always be a "self for others" God.

Nevertheless if the Serpent shocked us with his conman trickery, God shocks us to the core of our being, in that while I was yet still a sinner....actually it wasn't even that, because 2000 years ago I wasn't even born.....

Yet before I could even know about it, God DID A REVERSE SWITCH.

He never asked any man's opinion on the matter.
The "matter" was closed in terms of accomplishment in the words that Jesus the only Divinely begotten Son uttered on the Cross. " It is finished".

The serpent came with a "show stopper"......Hey Eve, you know that you are not to eat of any of the Trees of the garden?"
That was outrageous, but great salesmanship, because it was BAIT.

Now here comes Jesus with "great hooks"

Matthew 5 sounds preposterous.....but in the reverse direction

]Blessed are the [c]poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

5 “Blessed are the [d]gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.

6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.

7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.

10 “Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

(Just an aside here....NOTICE to lose the way, Adam and Eve just had ONE PORTAL....the ONE TREE.....count how many different portals  are here alone.....)

NOW Listen also to this, because this is where religious denominations are just plain wrong. They teach this sort of stuff as "works" nearly every week.

ACTUALLY THAT ISN'T WHAT THEY ARE....they are portals....Gates....Direction flows of the heart. They kickstart  you in the "ways of life".   They are nothing to do with the pagan idea of "heaping up things" to appease an angry God.

This is how David describes a man of God
Psalm 84.5 How blessed is the man whose strength is in You,
In whose heart are the highways to Zion!

Heart highways
out of the heart direction the heart flow, comes spontaneous God acts.

Here are some other "opening hooks".
Matthew 3 : God testifying direct about Jesus and filling Him with the Spirit at his baptism. Nobody had been filled quite like that before ever. Jesus was the first man to be filled inside and out with the Holy Spirit.....the baptism in the Spirit
Matthew 4: Jesus speaking prophetically to the first disciples, I will make you fishers of men. Prophecy can be a showstopper. 1 Corinthians 14.24Therefore if the whole church assembles together and all speak in tongues, and ungifted men or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are mad? 24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an ungifted man enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all; 25 the secrets of his heart are disclosed; and so he will fall on his face and worship God, declaring that God is certainly among you.
Matthew 6  - a gobsmackingly different angle on prayer
- what do we really want?    -always a subject that gets us where we are.
- and a subject that is really close to home....worry and fear and  God's supply.  ALL HOOKS and BAIT
Matthew 7 Imagery and Parables .  These are Hooks.  Behold the log that is in your eye....they knew Jesus worked in wood and knew about splinters
God is our Father....not some distant angry powerless God
The narrow Gate....
 Matthew 8 and 9 Spiritual Gifts as demonstrable signs of Power that Jesus means what He says in announcing  the Kingdom.

The switch was originally a change in Genesis 3 from the Kingdom of Light to the Kingdom of Darkness. Here was Jesus demonstrating that He wasn't just mincing words when He announced God's Kingdom was at hand again!!

Matthew 10 is gripping. Here is something new. Jesus is conferring His own authorty upon the 12 disciples already.  This is true of our Jesus Generation Move.  Unlike in previous history we hardly knew that we had properly repented. In fact, down the road, I had many lessons to learn. But right from the "get go"  (in the UK we say right from the word "go") Jesus baptised us in the Spirit from the start. We didn't know anything. And this was actually much the same at the birth of the Church in Acts 2 for the 3000 men who were saved. (Note the Jewish numbering system. Women and kids numbered even more!!!)
So in baiting us  God is less concerned about His Name than He is about getting us to taste of the "Waters of Life". Repent, be baptised in water, and be filled with the Holy Spirit from the get go.

Which brings us to the sort of "hooks" Jesus was using with the Jews in particular. The gospel of John lays these out for us.
Israel was called by God to carry His Name.
Don't say Muslims, Buddhists, English people, Taoists are just the same.
Israel was called as an external blueprint setter to better identify Jesus when He came talking about Spirit realities and how they work.
Israel culturally had FUN HOLIDAYS, well fun and serious....But they all meant something spiritually.  They were ordered and sequenced.
Coupled with this Moses saw the heavenly Tabernacle Blueprint on the mountain when He sought God, and He was shown exactly how to construct a simple 3 D version for people to meditate on.

NO OTHER PEOPLE ON EARTH HAS THIS.
And the two things.....the 3 Feasts and the 3 rooms of God's heavenly places dovetail in together.
Passover is NOT LAST.  There is a reason that Passover is first.
Day of Atonement is one of the Last things.....there is a reason for that.

The Apostle John as a Jew but now baptised in the Spirit picks up on these details more than any other gospel writer.
But to the BAIT and SWITCH theme there is no more important passage than John 10.
Because what Adam and Eve had been conned out of was a direct unsullied pure spiritual connection at spirit level with Almighty God. And here was One announcing that His purpose was to SWITCH US BACK ON TO LIFE, to REPLUG US as if Genesis 3 never happened.
7 So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. 8 All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and [a]have it abundantly.

11 “I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep. 12 He who is a hired hand, and not a shepherd, who is not the owner of the sheep, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. 13 He flees because he is a hired hand and is not concerned about the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd, and I know My own and My own know Me, 15 even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep. 16 I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will hear My voice; and they will become one flock with one shepherd. 17 For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it again. 18 No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own initiative. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This commandment I received from My Father.”

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

Satan bated Adam through Eve and "switched" their life source to a derived life source.
God , you remember had breathed HIS LIFE into the lump of clay and formed ADAM - EVE out of which He took Eve.  But this life breath was now contaminated.
One had to come " in the likeness of sinful flesh yet without sin" ,laying His life down unto death even  the worst form of physical torture death....the Roman terror emblem - crucifixion.
More later....

Back to our theme of baiting. Turning on the Lights regarding  Jewish  concepts.

John 3 People were familiar with"entering a Temple but not a complete rebirth. In the Spirit they are the same thing.
John 4  The amazing meeting with the woman at the well, and the water of life. In Feast of Tabernacles there is the Feast of the Pouring out of the Water. Water is a theme of two Gates in Jerusalem, the 6 th gate- The Fountain Gate   and the 7th Gate The Water Gate. See also Revelation 22 and Isaiah 55
John 5 Jesus deliberately guided by the Spirit to "break" into the "charismatic-like" supernatural tradition of waiting upon a angel at Bethesda , but on a Sabbath!!! This BAIT brought up questions of authority...Jesus answered 1. John's human testimony 2.His supernatural works 3.His Father testified directly and 4.Scriptures testified of Jesus
John 6 By now the bait itself was starting to get in the way. Jesus reminded them that He was the Bread come down from heaven, the Living Manna.....the Living version of what the people experienced with Moses
John 7  It was one thing to be led by the Spirit within a small gathering situation at Bethesda, but this was now a national Feast, and He began speaking directly to those that had criticised His healing of the man at Bethesda. God FINGERS events which are specific and which show the leaven of sin and religion. Acts 2 was also specific. This Jesus who you crucified.
Jesus spoke on the Last Day of the Feast of Tabernacles which was the Feast of Waterpouring and Feast of Ingathering the harvest.....
Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “[g]If anyone is thirsty, [h]let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From [i]his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’” 39 But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
John 8 Now things were getting really interesting : Jesus begins questioning their authority for saying they were sons of Abraham. They certainly were not acting in faith like Abraham and they didn't recognise Jesus who was acting in faith.
John 9 Continuing the division of mere religion in name only and one who had spiritual power, this time healing a blind man. All the healing events had meaning on several levels. The Spirit meant it so. Like Marmite....you cannot just quietly cohabit with the kingdom of God....you are either for it or against it, and the Spirit is like that hovering torch of fire passing between the carcasses in Genesis 15. You are drawn to a decision. This is the "work" of the Kingdom, quite often attacking the Tree of Good.
John 10 Getting pretty near the heart of the BAIT and the SWITCH of the gospel. The subject of Deity. Well that's obvious Chris....Jesus was the Son of God. Yes but you are not getting what Jesus is saying, which is the heart of  God's PUN....This second switch.
If scripture (which can't be broken since it was written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit) calls those to whom the scripture has come as gods....what about the One who expressly came from God and is now forming a people out of this same Divine life?
John 11 And the spiritual authority behind these statements has power to raise Lazarus back from the dead, and this after 3 days of death in a hot country.

In the next post P3 we will examine

 God's version of

 THE SWITCH

Bait

Bait and Switch 1 - How we got into this mess

Wikipedia extract.....

In retail sales[edit]
First, customers are "baited" by merchants's advertising products or services at a low price, but when customers visit the store, they discover that the advertised goods either are not available or are not as good as expected, or the customers are pressured by sales people to consider similar, but higher-priced, items ("switching").

Function[edit]
The intention of the bait-and-switch is to encourage purchases of substituted goods, making consumers satisfied with the available stock offered, as an alternative to a disappointment or inconvenience of acquiring no goods (or bait) at all, and reckoning on a seemingly partial recovery of sunk costs expended trying to obtain the bait. It suggests that the seller will not show the original product or service advertised but instead will demonstrate a more expensive product or a similar product with a higher margin.

Legality[edit]
In the United States, courts have held that the purveyor using a bait-and-switch operation may be subject to a lawsuit by customers for false advertising, and can be sued for trademark infringement by competing manufacturers, retailers, and others who profit from the sale of the product used as bait. However, no cause of action will exist if the purveyor is capable of actually selling the goods advertised, but aggressively pushes a competing product.

Likewise, advertising a sale while intending to stock a limited amount of, and thereby sell out, a loss-leading item advertised is legal in the United States. The purveyor can escape liability if they make clear in their advertisements that quantities of items for which a sale is offered are limited, or by offering a rain check on sold-out items........

Merrian Webster
Definition of bait and switch
1
: a sales tactic in which a customer is attracted by the advertisement of a low-priced item but is then encouraged to buy a higher-priced one
2
: the ploy of offering a person something desirable to gain favor (such as political support) then thwarting expectations with something less desirable

The great PUN of History

 is Bait and Switch

Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Indeed, has God said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’?” 2 The woman said to the serpent, “From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; 3 but from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat from it or touch it, or you will die.’” 4 The serpent said to the woman, “You surely will not die! 5 For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves [b]loin coverings.

8 They heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the [c]cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 Then the Lord God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?” 10 He said, “I heard the sound of You in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid myself.” 11 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” 12 The man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me from the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” 14 The Lord God said to the serpent,

“Because you have done this,
Cursed are you more than all cattle,
And more than every beast of the field;
On your belly you will go,
And dust you will eat
All the days of your life;
15 And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between your seed and her seed;
He shall [d]bruise you on the head,
And you shall bruise him on the heel.”
16 To the woman He said,
“I will greatly multiply
Your pain [e]in childbirth,
In pain you will bring forth children;
Yet your desire will be for your husband,
And he will rule over you.”
17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat from it’;

Cursed is the ground because of you;
In [f]toil you will eat of it
All the days of your life.
18 “Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you;
And you will eat the [g]plants of the field;
19 By the sweat of your face
You will eat bread,
Till you return to the ground,
Because from it you were taken;
For you are dust,
And to dust you shall return.”
20 Now the man called his wife’s name [h]Eve, because she was the mother of all the living. 21 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and clothed them.

22 Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”— 23 therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he was taken. 24 So He drove the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden He stationed the cherubim and the flaming sword which turned every direction to guard the way to the tree of life.

The main sales pitch of the serpent is that.....
You are insufficient
You are being witheld ALL TREES of the Garden
and the SPECIFIC tree will lead to godhood.


The switch was made when first Eve then Adam took the bait.
The switch was, that however it "looked" or "appeared" both Adam and Eve were in the Spirit of freedom.....but chose a false realm of  "independence".

They were independent anyway but in God.....
Just like we are independent when the Railways Board says don't drive over the Track when a train is coming.

The Railway Board stating WE CANNOT DO something doesn't change our liberty or independence.....IT Keeps us alive longer to be able to enjoy more of it.

Satan makes out that this ONE TREE.....the Tree of Testing.....The Tree demanding the obedience of NOT TOUCHING.....was the ONE THING that was to be desired and far from being insignificant would make Adam and Eve into independent gods.


Independence isn't a falsehood.  Liberty isn't a falsehood.
That there exists a realm "outside of God" is a falsehood.  He is in all and sustains all.

We know within our consciences when we are going the wrong way.

The ways of true Life are in Him.  He is indeed the only REAL thing that is going on in the universe.
Suffering and sin are real....but to get involved in them we have to go "outside" of what is really happening from God spontaneity.....and hook up with"fake, manipulated " happenings...

Happenings that James says

 But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15 Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin [p]is accomplished, it brings forth death. 

We are "drawn" by the demonic....the (false) sensual, the "world system" pulling on our senses....and this is called
the lust of the world
the lust of the eyes

Eve was enticed (above in Genesis 3)on three levels
THE FOOD WAS GOOD.....desirous to the body
IT LOOKED GOOD.....desirous to the soul
IT COULD MAKE YOU WISE....desirous at a spirit level....but it is a false wisdom, a fading wisdom, it is a false spirit.

BUT IT WAS BAIT AND SWITCH....
WE EXCHANGED THE GLORY OF GOD FOR A LIE
WE EXCHANGED A HOOKUP WITH GOD HIMSELF IN A DIRECT UNSULLIED FORM
FOR A HOOKUP THAT WAS NOLONGER DIRECT AND PURE, BUT VIA SATAN'S OWN "SELF FOR SELF" MAKEUP. * Below is the Romans 1 description of the condition  *

Word of explanation
All life gets its life source from God.
Satan does too, but won't acknowledge it. He has twisted God's power source from being one rooted and grounded in love

to rooted and grounded in the love of self, "self for self" living.

What was enticing was
self for self living was dressed up as something in the Tree of Good

We could help God out by not having to refer to Him all the time....
we would know what was good and what was evil and as independent beings be able to choose what was the correct path for ourselves....

but self for self....IS MORE ugly THAN JUST " INDEPENDENCE".....

and remember we had independence

we had freedom anyway

"where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom"

No, the bait and switch brought us death, brought us this spirit hookup that is rooted in selfishness like a blackhole, never satisfied.....
death was spiritual, death was felt in the soul as shame, and just sense of God's wrath, and death was actually something that 900 years later broke through at body level....Adam died.
In Bait and Switch 2 we will learn God's version..  Here is the Romans 1 description of the switch and below, on the same theme from Ephesians 2 and 1 Corinthians 12.1
*
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous man shall live by faith.”

Unbelief and Its Consequences
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because that which is known about God is evident ithin them; for God made it evident to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. 21 For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and [o]crawling creatures.

24 Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. 25 For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.

28 And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; 32 and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.

Ephesians 2
And you were dead ]in your trespasses and sins, 2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. 3 Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.

1 Corinthians 12:2 You know that when you were pagans, you were led astray to the mute idols, however you were led.

In the Shadow of the Election Pt II - Not Lo Here

Ok here's two for the price of one. They would have been separate but life happens.

Darkness and Light.
Our flesh eyeballs cannot see the Kingdom of Light.
Our flesh eyeballs cannot see the Kingdom of Darkness.
Neither ARE LO HERE.....as in you can't mark a spot on the map and say with either ....they are here.
And actually the same with people. You cannot demonise them.
You cannot really exalt them.
All you can say is.....such and such seems to be the direction of his or her heart and while they are moving in that direction I can either join them or not fully....depending if it is my direction.
The phrase "you live by your light(s). but at any point people can change direction.
So like a Scooby Doo show, when they say "look behind you" and they look and nobody is there.... this is what Light and Darkness is spiritually. Jesus said in John 3 you can look at Holy Spirit wind effects, but you cannot see the wind.
I believe now you can see the "effects" of 250 meticulous years of planning of Freemasonry....even if you actually don't believe in its negative influence but just still see it as silly men rolling up their trousers.
But NO.....you can't really say to any Freemason, 33rd level or above....oooooh you are where evil rests....because as with Rothschild himself , you will only see the outer form of a genial old man playing the stock markets, and doing the very occasional programme on Radio 4.
This is part of the meaning of the chequerboard in Freemasonry and the black and white of the Tao belief system.
But God is not Tao. There literally is no Darkness in Him but there is in a personnage called the devil. And the Darkness is , as Jesus said, in his basic character of a Thief, a Liar and a Murderer.....but you know what? Long long long before the devil has moved a muscle, the people of God gathering in the Name of Jesus who is totally holy....can sense the Darkness that the devil moves in as unholy, as self for self, as a Blackhole, as the ultimate in narcissism.
So us readers of Psalm 2.....don't say, go to Jerusalem on the day of Jesus trial and say.....like many many Protestants still say to this day......AHA....you see this proves that Jews are desperately wicked beings.....permanently.
We don't turn up in the Garden of Eden and say....Aha....like Calvinists and say......AHA.....Adam fell and we now realise he is absolute evil and we are too....
For crying out loud....Adam picked a fruit!!!
It was a forbidden fruit. But it wasn't murder. He was sold the lie of helping God out, so He wouldn't have to keep referring to God all the time as to whether something was good or not. The devil had the good sense not to whisper in Adam's ear to slaughter every animal in sight with a blood ritual dedicated to Lucifer worship.
If you speak to Rothschild....yes there are tons of things we don't know about what he may or may not do....but if, on a Radio 4 programme you crossed him about why he felt the need for building a Temple to Apollo (the sun) in hisback garden at Waddesdon, he won't hide it from you. He will say quite openly
that he is in an order called the Solar cult, and they rate Lucifer because he is the bringer of Light. Now Mr Burns of the Simpsons may be modelled on him, but like Mr Burns, for all his character traits , none of which Rothschild may have, he is the sort of person who explains why he does things, approachable in that sense, and logical in his approach.
You simply won't be able to stick a pin on Google and say AHA.....Waddesdon....the English Rothschild home....the very heart of evil on earth. Because the Kingdom of Darkness like the Kingdom of Light is not LO THERE, marked for all time with a placard. All that is there is a National Trust property, with a temple to Apollo in the back garden, and loads of visitors like my parents and myself (when they were alive) wandering about the fabulous gardens. (wondering how on earth did somebody get so fabulously wealthy in relation to everybody else in Hertfordshire..... I was 10).
That's why conspiracy FACT is conspiracy FACT. Like Jesus death...it took place on one day, and really the execution decision was one instance in time that could have gone both ways....in theory.
Same with Adam and Eve and the fruit.
So when the FACTS occur.....they are hidden. They are swift. They are decisions taken momentarily among many decisions that are perfectly normal. So when we look round for a base of evil.....like in James Bond.....there really isn't one that is permanent.
Although having said that the Belgian castle where they are meant to kill one baby every day in front of their 365 windows.....must take some beating. But being occult....proving that is a nightmare.
The Kingdom though, the Word, is Near you, even in your mouth.
POINT TWO. Synergy.
In the 80s nutritionists hit on the point of fibre. Roughage. Then came the F-Plan.....Later known as the "rear burp " plan.
But they hadn't quite hit on the genius.
The genius isn't in providing any which bran, and any which fibre. That's not the point.
The point is food itself has its own roughage and the process to break it down yields up its own stuff. The minerals. The stomach activity. It's healthy for the body.
Then came the late 80s then 90s. Cambridge Diet worked on a diet of complete nutrition, but low calorie. The idea of supplying all the needed minerals and vitamins. At first, in earlier decades they were literally tiny tiny particles of raw minerals.....and D'oh....the body couldn't process them. Then people hit on chelated minerals. IT IS TRUE that you can do what my Cambridge Diet friends do, and they continue the sachets even when they are not dieting because they simoly do not trust what is in our foodstuffs. They deal with huge wholesale quantities, but for mere mortals that is expensive.
And anyway the genius ISNT in supplying all the right components...
THE GENIUS IS IN HOW NATURAL FOODSTUFFS RELEASE ALL THESE MINERALS AND VITAMINS AND HOW THE BODY TAKES SAY THE SELENIUM COMPONENT TO BE ABLE TO RELEASE OTHER CHEMICAL REACTIONS.
________________________________
NOW i WANT TO GET SERIOUS.
The New World Order wants to build a perfect replica of what God's plan is, but strip Him out of the picture.
We can see from this week how by manipulating events and creating vulnerability in a people, we can put together very very emotive pop concerts, with nearly no reference to God (Justin Bieber excepted) and present very very similar events to what goes on in the bigger Body of Christ events.
The globalists have known for some time that there is only one path whereby we grow psychologiacally.
If you study esoteric stuff you will see very similar stuff to thirdlevel christianity. Kabbalists and top Jesuits actually talk about Solomon's Temple....the three rooms.....the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
They know also that all the peoples of the world are different repositories for total truth. In the West we have a very fragmented picture because we don't accept Hindu and Buddhist concepts. Please, I am not saying everything is correct. I don't believe in reincarnation. it's unnecessary. In God a day is as a 1000 years and 1000 years is as a day.....and we have an eternity to keep on learning. Reincarnation is a lie to stop us from taking this life totally totally seriously.
But Globalists understand the peoples of the world, but initially they are using everyone's foibles to divide and rule over us, to get to a stage where they can then manage the whole operation.
BUT THAT ISN'T THE GENIUS.
THE GLOBALISTS ARE MISSING THE GENIUS.
THE BODY OF CHRIST IS MISSING THE GENIUS.
THE GENIUS IS NOT SIMPLY AMASSING A STASIS.
TAKING ALL THE NATIONS IN LUMPS AND PLONKING ALL THEIR COLLECTIVE KNOWLEDGE SO FAR ALTOGETHER IN SOME GIANT MIXING POT.
THE GENIUS THAT IS HAPPENING IN OUR BODIES BUT ISNT HAPPENING IN THE BODY OF CHRIST....IS :
1 Corinthians 12:12-14
Ephesians 4 being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.
7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift........
15speaking the truth in love, ]we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, being fitted and held together by what every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself in love.
“This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel saying, ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ says the Lord of hosts. 7 ‘What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain; and he will bring forth the top stone with shouts of “Grace, grace to it!”’”
The Body , Christ's church doesn't get it.
Our human bodies daily break things down as combined units, releasing all the processes needed....digestion....catalysts....overseeing all the necessary chemical reactions.....sending all the resultant parts either to the interior of the body and through cell walls or out of the body through the central waste pipe.
Churches today are all separate. Separated by tiny tiny belief systems. Here's an example. Jesus command for Day one of a new believer.....repent...be baptised....and receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit (the fulness)...
Right there in baby baby baby Christianity is three denominational buildings.....
Lutherans
Baptists
Pentecostals
It's pathetic!!!!!
Paul Noble said this week he was bored by churchianity.
Churchianity is what it says......a beast of its own making.
It doesn't do a thing that is written in the Bible . it is its own religion entirely.
God's Church as Watchman Nee wrote so clearly
is ALL BELIEVERS living in one locality gathering together as the local church.
Only that sort of fulness really works.
Then like the human body it can break apart the Word of Jesus Christ in a complete and nutritious way, and break it down into manageable pieces for each joint to manage.
Zechariah says....unlike the dollar bill, which is the Masonic version of the capstone on Solomon's work....
we now know in the Spirit there are two completely identifiable works of Grace and up until this very century there was only ONE in operation......so the Body COULD NEVER EVER BE BUILT.
The devil has pointed his finger and laughed and convinced Dean Dosher and many many others that church is an unutterable joke.
Jesus exact words were....if you weren't going to be bothered to get all the necessary components
it WOULD INDEED be a halfbuilt tower
like an army only half doing a campaign
and the whole world would laugh
and we'd only be fit to be thrown under foot.....which is what the New World Order are planning to do.
So here is the rub.....
if you look at a human being....you cannot see with your fleshly eyeballs....the Kingdom of Light
or the Kingdom of Darkness
but you can see the effects....
And God is saying if you do nothing.....the default is the Kingdom of Darkness and what Alex Jones calls a prison state world....
But neither Kingdom are Lo HERE nor LO THERE....
And we have the power to say the Word using our own mouths.
We have the power to say....Church.....enough is enough....
Quit your baby nappy crap.....
quit your identifying by names other than Jesus Christ
quit you saying how you want your services and meetings to run, and just obey the King of Kings and Lord of Lords who has laid the apostolic Word of how you do church....
Not by might
Nor by power
but by My Spirit says the Lord....
and with the TWO GRACES
The GRACE of the Blood shed
And the Grace of the Body Death of Christ with you inside.

In the Shadow of the Election 2017 Pt I - UK History

As we get ready to make history or not this Thursday....and Theresa May could completely lose the NHS and Government workers vote, with static pay since 2010, while she and the others pay themselves some 11% payrise....
HISTORY -UK
I stated last summer that on only a 4% difference, the UK did not deserve to follow our recommendation to leave Europe.
4% difference for such a massive change! England should be forced to eat its own vomit and stay in Europe and see what they will do to you. You simply haven't got the balls or the energy or the real will to stand on your own two feet. You are like a pole vaulter walking up to the point of lift off, or an airoplane taxiing up the runway instead of accelerating to takeoff. England you are not worth it....stay in and suffer....you Media believing wombats!!!!
BUT IT IS SUBTLE. I GRANT YOU.
In history it was easy.
Judah and Israel split over greedy taxation.
The UK split with the Jews themselves and their gross usury when their moneydealing scams threatened to throttle our country. The barons revolted against the King anyway, and King John ousted the Jews around 1215, and we had the Magna Carta.....printed by the way on our stationery parchment made in the pure water wells of Havant!!!!!
Later history was easy.
Catholic domination and a ban on personal Bible reading versus the arrival of the printing press, the knowledge of personal salvation by faith, and a far more independent approach to living ie Protestantism. Ultimately democracy as it is today.
All beit that both the Jews and the Catholics clawed their way back in to Britain and not on such a different timescale. William of Orange reintroduced the Jews under clever wheedling, who immediately began their takeover of the City of London. And the Catholics took over England via the Jesuit order of Malta through George III, and have secretly run the Anglican Church and the English monarchy ever since.
So is there any point in leaving Europe, which was set up by a Jesuit in 1947? What is the difference?
As a smaller monobloc we can better scrutinise what is going on rather than being sucked in wholesale and with no transparency of government whatsoever into Brussels.
BUT NO.....now things aren't so clear at all.
Before it was England being throttled by money men.
Then later England trying to make a break from Romish compulsory rule.
Now " the independent self delusion" has been expanded to huge fairy tale status, such that no man in the street actually sees or understands the issue.
"Religion" has been stripped out of the equation, as though that solved anything, since the very same spiritual realities are now remaining.
Every single citizen has their parents sign a birth certificate contract selling their child off as a fictive corporation....
a slave to tax production
the fictive image that the court addresses and has legal claims over
the creation of a fiction in the way you relate with others in the leftbrain, which is the lingua franca of the English speaking world....
No god anywhere to be seen, but actually the Catholic god in charge of everything through the manipulation of the Vatican.
Without repentance
Baptism in water to recognise your legal spiritual death from this order
without Baptism in the Spirit ,where on earth will be the discernment to "read spiritually " the rape that is going on.
And as proverbs 1 says.....if you won't heed the voice of inner discernment or wisdom.....then you will walk slap bang into the fruit of your own behaviour.
Now at 52% of the vote only to leave Europe
with nobody paying the slightest bit of heed to the clear recent revelations of how everything works, as emerged on the internet....Britian is neither fish nor fowl....
It wants to leave the EU.....just about....by the narrowest of margins but doesn't know why. So its own muzzy inner discernment is as foul as ever , and wants to make a break for freedom, but it is still living from the very same complete spirit of folly that EU is designed and drawn up in.....
Go figure, as you then have to choose a vote this week where Theresa is herself as much part of a dodgy Conservative system, yet the other parties don't even know if they want to leave Europe at all anyway.
Best of luck comrades.

The Necessity of Dissent and Controversy within Freedom

Here is a simple unaccompanied song off my Early Harvest Double CD which is called Lift Up Your Sword You're a Young Man....HYMN TO YOUTH/THE WORD - Words and Music A. Christopher Welch 1990

Lift up your sword you're a young man / It's your time to join the fight / You ain't got that much
wisdom / But you're holding a bright light. / Do not fear all the old ones / As they cower and
they rage / They once held the sword you're holding / But it's now you in centre-stage. /
Drama of history / Unrolling, unfolding Word / Somewhere in the middle / Of what is said and
what is heard. / At the vortex of the conflict / Between the deaf, between the dumb / Between
the aged and the stripling / Is the Word not old nor young.

This Post is a really intelligent interview that gives the lie to the blanket Alex Jones hatred.
Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumkins  NEVER sits inside Alex Jones's pockets, but both of them review  the overall sweep of  American History and the Grand Experiment  of Freedom, looking
at the Dissenters of the 60s, and discussing the situation today.

This reasoned discussion should be played in history,politics or media arts lessons.   Allow for the initial "programmed" response of the kids towards Alex Jones, thanks to Simpsons, American Guy and "Homeland" and many other series.....AND ALSO, according to Mark Dice and others, Alex Jones being a CIA inuring trick anyway....
Whatever we think of Alex Jones, trust me, this is worth watching.

50 years since Sgt Peppers

Sgt Pepper’s Musical Revolution: with Howard Goodall - an ideal insight into the seminal Beatles album, BBC Two review  Jasper Rees
3 JUNE 2017 • 10:00PM
Technically, if you do the maths, it was 70 years ago today: the Beatles sang “it was 20 years ago today” 50 years ago. But let’s not quibble. You need to be at least 64 to have any idea of the real-time impact of Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts’ Club Band. Before, recording was achieved by means of string and sticky-backed plastic. The album’s first listeners heard a tectonic realignment in sound that is impossible for us whippersnappers (I was two at the time) to grasp.

Sgt Pepper’s Musical Revolution (BBC Two) attempted to demonstrate quite how mind-expanding the album was in 1967. Howard Goodall came at the task musicologically, delivering a sort of Open University lecture involving studio innovations, stylistic hybrids and lyrical invention.

Loved Howard Goodalls complete breakdown of Beatles Sgt Pepper's virtually chord by chord. Sounds pretty lame to say I associate with that kind of recording process, and it is lame because I was never a group. But trying desperately to get thirdlevel Christianity down as a concept album of 20 years of my songs and many purpose written additions .... John Daniels my producer and recording engineer and I did many ambitious things with what was available without funding in the 1990s. So while the Beatles didn't have cash problems, they were four inventive people extremely hampered by no synthesisers and only a four track.
By 1990 we had synthesisers, samplers and C lab Atari software . The very start of truly bedroom studios. But John didn't even understand the concept of a third level. What John had though was a major track record in U.K. Christian recording and writing songs, although there is none of his stuff on my CD, but he knew how to engineer a good idea.
To date around two people on earth " get" my Early Harvest double CD. Both are women. Pam Knight and Joan Reilly . I think as more people face Romans 7, more and more will go......aaaah, that's what he was on about. So it's an album waiting to hatch.

Joel 2 - A track off Early Harvest Double CD by A. Christopher Welch

Why is watercress so incredible?

Fast facts on watercress
Here are some key points about watercress. More detail and supporting information is in the main article.

• Watercress was fed to the Roman army
• One cup of watercress contains more than 100 percent of the daily recommended amount of vitamin K
• A chemical in watercress may help protect against the negative effects of cancer treatment
• The calcium, magnesium, and potassium in watercress may help bring down blood pressure
  
  

According to the USDA National Nutrient Database, two cups of fresh watercress (about 68 grams) contains only 7 calories.

• Two cups of watercress also provide:
  • 1.6 grams of protein
  • 0.1 grams of fat
  • 0.9 grams of carbohydrate (including 0.3 grams of fiber and 0.1 grams of sugar)
  Consuming 2 cups of watercress will meet the following level of daily requirements:
  • 212 percent of vitamin K
  • 48 percent of vitamin C
  • 44 percent of vitamin A
  • 8 percent of calcium 
  • 8 percent of manganese
  • 6 percent of potassium
  Plus, 4 percent of vitamin E, thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin B-6, magnesium, and phosphorus.
  
  

Possible health benefits of consuming watercress
Consuming fruits and vegetables of all kinds is associated with a reduced risk of a number of adverse health conditions. Many studies have suggested that increasing consumption of plant foods, like watercress, decreases the risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and overall mortality while promoting a healthy complexion, increased energy, and overall lower weight.

Cancer prevention and treatment
Studies have consistently shown that a compound in cruciferous vegetables known as 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM) has protective effects against cancer, but a recent study shows there is also hope for using it as a shield to protect healthy tissues during cancer treatment.

In a study conducted at Georgetown University, rats were given a lethal dose of radiation. Some were left untreated, and others were treated with a daily injection of DIM for 2 weeks. All the untreated rats died, but over 50 percent of those receiving the DIM remained alive at the 30-day mark.

The same researchers did the experiment on mice and found similar results. They were able to determine that the DIM-treated mice had higher counts or red and white blood cells and blood platelets, which radiation therapy often diminishes.

Eating high amounts of cruciferous vegetables has also been associated with a lower risk of lung and colon cancer. Studies have suggested that the sulfur-containing compounds (namely sulforaphane) that give cruciferous vegetables their bitter bite are also what give them their cancer-fighting power.

Sulforaphane is now being studied for its ability to delay or impede cancer with early promising results associated with melanoma, esophageal, prostate, breast, and pancreatic cancers. Researchers have found that sulforaphane can inhibit the enzyme histone deacetylase (HDAC), known to be involved in the progression of cancer cells. The ability to stop HDAC enzymes could make sulforaphane-containing foods a potentially powerful part of cancer treatment in the future.

Watercress also contains high amounts of chlorophyll, which may be effective at blocking the carcinogenic effects of heterocyclic amines generated when grilling foods at a high temperature.

Lowering blood pressure
People who consume diets that are low in the minerals calcium, magnesium, and potassium are more likely to have high blood pressure. These minerals are thought to bring blood pressure down by releasing sodium out of the body and helping arteries dilate.

It is important to note that taking these minerals in supplement form will not provide the same health benefits as when they are consumed in food. Watercress contains all three of these healthy minerals and can help improve intake.

According to a 2013 study published in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, foods containing dietary nitrates like watercress have been shown to have multiple vascular benefits, including reducing blood pressure, inhibiting platelet aggregation, and preserving or improving endothelial dysfunction.

In general, a diet rich in all fruits and vegetables has been shown to help maintain healthy blood pressure.

Maintaining healthy bones
Low intakes of vitamin K are associated with a higher risk for bone fracture. Adequate vitamin K consumption improves bone health by acting as a modifier of bone matrix proteins, improving calcium absorption, and reducing urinary excretion of calcium.

Eating just one cup of watercress would meet your daily need for vitamin K.

Treating diabetes
Watercress contains the antioxidant alpha-lipoic acid, which has been shown to lower glucose levels, increase insulin sensitivity, and prevent oxidative stress-induced changes in patients with diabetes.

Studies on alpha-lipoic acid have also shown decreases in peripheral and autonomic neuropathy in diabetics.

Of note, most studies have used intravenous alpha-lipoic acid, there is uncertainty whether oral supplementation would elicit the same benefits.

How to incorporate more watercress into your dietwatercress soup
Try making watercress soup or mix watercress into soup near the end of cooking.
Watercress is most commonly consumed fresh in salads but can also be incorporated into pastas, casseroles, and sauces just like any other green.

Watercress will sauté faster than tougher greens like kale and collard greens because of its tenderness and lends a mild, slightly peppery taste to any dish.

Choose watercress with deep green crisp leaves and no signs of wilting. Store in the refrigerator and use within a few days of purchase.

Throw a small handful of watercress and blend into your favorite fruit juice or smoothie.
Add watercress to your next omelet or egg scramble.
Make a pesto using watercress.
Chop watercress and add it to pasta sauce.

Sauté watercress in a small amount of extra-virgin olive oil and season with ground black pepper and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Eat as a side dish or top your baked potato.
Add watercress to your wrap, sandwich, or flatbread.
Mix watercress into soup near the end of cooking.

Health Benefits of Watercress
Watercress earned its reputation as a healing herb quite early. Around 400 BC, Hippocrates located the first hospital on the island of Kos close to a stream to ensure that fresh watercress would be available for treating patients. In the 1700s, Nicholas Culpeper (author of Culpeper's Herbal) believed watercress could cleanse the blood. Modern science has identified more than 15 essential vitamins and minerals contained in this one herb – more iron than spinach, more calcium than milk, and more vitamin C than oranges.

Watercress is very low in calories, but contains phytonutrients like isothiocyanates and antioxidants with a plethora of disease-preventive properties. Gluconasturtiin, a glucosinolate compound providing the peppery flavor, is one of them, contained in the leaves and stems and providing phenethyl isothiocyanates, shown to inhibit carcinogens.

Vitamin K is by far the most prominent nutrient in watercress, with 312% of the daily recommended value. It forms and strengthens the bones and limits neuronal damage in the brain, which is helpful in treating Alzheimer's disease. There's also vitamin C, with 72% of the daily value, closely followed by vitamin A with 64%. Vitamin C provides top-notch infection-fighting power to stave off colds and flu, help maintain healthy connective tissue, and prevent iron deficiency. Vitamin A, also known as retinol, is essential for a properly functioning immune system and produces pigments in the retina of the eye, an absence of which can cause night blindness.

Manganese is a cofactor for the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase, and calcium for strong bones and teeth come in high doses when you eat watercress. Antioxidant flavonoids like ß carotene, zeaxanthin, and lutein protect from lung and mouth cancers. B-complex vitamins include riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine), thiamin, and pantothenic acid, all important for keeping your cellular metabolic functions at peak performance.

Studies Done on Watercress
Eating watercress daily has the ability to significantly reduce DNA damage to blood cells and further to resist DNA damage caused by free radicals, according to a two-year research project at the University of Ulster.

Scientists examined a watercress-derived compound called phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC) and found significant anticancer properties. Single blind, randomized, crossover trials involved 60 healthy men and women eating about 1½ cups of fresh watercress daily for eight weeks. Positive results included a reduction in blood triglyceride levels by an average of 10%, and a significant (33% to 100%) increase in lutein and betacarotene content, associated, with higher intake levels, in a lowered incidence of eye diseases such as cataracts and macular degeneration1.

Scientific research found that the PEITC in watercress may suppress breast cancer cell development. Studies at the University of Southampton study found PEITC may starve tumor growth of blood and oxygen by "turning off" a signal in the body. Researchers explained that "as tumors develop, they rapidly outgrow their existing blood supply so they send out signals that make surrounding normal tissues grow new blood vessels into the tumor, which feed them oxygen and nutrients2."

Watercress Fun Facts
You could call watercress the first fast food. It was a free and therefore important source of sustenance throughout Europe and the US in the 19th century. Given the nickname "poor man's bread," bunches were often rolled into a cone and eaten as an on-the-go breakfast sandwich – much less expensive than the real thing.

ANDI Score warning
What Is the ANDI Score For Food Nutrients?

This CDC report calculated its list of top superfoods based on ANDI Scores, or “aggregate nutrient density index” scores intended to find the foods with the highest nutrient-per-calorie density. Unfortunately, ANDI Scores are hopelessly broken because the denominator is the energy density of food: i.e., how many calories are in 100 grams of the food.

That means that if you take watercress – 100 grams of watercress is probably 95 grams of water and has exactly FOUR calories (yes, 4 calories)… you can ignore the water in the equation.

So if it has enough vitamins to equal 400 (quite a lot of vitamins), you divide by the number of calories and you get a nice score of 100. Sounds great, right?

Except you’ll starve to death on a watercress diet because there’s no energy in it.

You’ll also experience food cravings if you eat tons of it.

Following just ANDI Scores is a roadmap to starving.

The ANDI/nutrient density approach discounts some of the most important factors to look at when you eat. ANDI scores make people try to avoid calories when it’s calories from the right foods that make your brain and body work.

A lot of the foods the CDC lists are indeed very good for you due to high vitamin content – lots of greens and cruciferous veggies of course – but you can’t subsist on them alone.

Truly high nutrient foods, like liver or butter or egg yolks, are penalized because they’re high calorie.

Guess what has the highest ANDI score? A multivitamin. Sure, I take supplements.

But I also eat real food too.

. In terms of the active chemical species, CVs are rich sources of glucosinolates, a class of sulfur- and nitrogen-containing glycosides that are hydrolyzed (by plant myrosinase or intestinal microflora) to form isothiocyanates. These isothiocyanates have been shown, in several in vitro and in vivo studies, to display anticarcinogenic properties as reviewed previously (9, 17). Watercress (Rorippa nasturtium-aquaticum) in particular contains one of the highest concentrations of glucosinolates per gram weight of any vegetable (18, 19) as well as containing high concentrations of carotenoids such as lutein and -carotene (20). These phytochemicals have also been associated with various anticarcinogenic properties, including antioxidant activities.

The WaterCress Company Alresford

The principles of growing watercress have essentially changed little over the years. Much of the work is still done by hand, but some modernisation has taken place.

Until the mid 50s watercress was predominantly a winter crop and to support this there were up to 10 times the area of production as the crop grows slow during this period compared to the faster summer period. This winter production suited the farms as they often dried up in the summer or over time became unsuitable for production or even sold for development.

This left a reduced area and with the issues created from reproducing crops, the industry moved to a more reliable and successful system of propagation from seeds.

TWC produces all its own seeds and this is a very important part of the turnaround from the production crash in the 50s.

Harvesting has become mechanised which is a far cry from the back breaking hand harvested which was a really tough job. The cleaning out is now done with a tractor and we have also recently mechanised fertiliser applications to increase efficiency and reduce inputs.

Please follow the pictorial process online to learn more about how we grow watercress.
