Communiqué THE BODY OF ANTICHRIST Part VIII
In our
previous installment of The Body of Antichrist series, we noted
how some of the difficulty in trying the spirits is due to the fact that these
principalities are seen to change the vessels they work through, in response to
the LORD’s shift to the New Covenant.
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether
they are of God” (I John 4:1).
It is self
evident that as the LORD responded to Israel’s complete defilement during
the Old Testament timeline, he shifted His strategy in His promised redemption
of Israel, and that resulted in the New Covenant. Indeed, this transition was
recorded in the prophet’s writings.
For example,
in Zechariah the LORD said that after He had brought Gentile
powers against Jerusalem as punishment for their escalating sin, he was angered
at the zeal with which they attacked Israel.
“I am very sore displeased with the heathen that are at ease: for I
was but a little displeased, and they helped forward the affliction. Therefore
thus saith the Lord; I am returned to Jerusalem with mercies…and the Lord
shall yet comfort Zion, and shall yet choose Jerusalem” (Zechariah
1:17).
It is clear
that Satan has attempted to execute countermoves to the LORD’s
interventions in earthly affairs as well, as is evidenced when the Devil sought
to pre-empt the ministry of Jesus by trying to tempt him through showing
the LORD the glory of the earthly kingdoms.
“And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and
the glory of them….if thou therefore wilt worship me” (Luke
4:6,7).
We have also
repeatedly diagrammed the evidence for the Prophetic Spiritual Pairs in
Scripture (most recently in Part VII of the present work). Obviously,
there are two primary opponents to the believers allegorized in
Scripture – notably Antichrist and False Prophet.
Jesus told
us these Spiritual principalities (there is no “the”
Antichrist) are related to the divided “house” of the devil, which
was juxtaposed with the fact that Jesus and the Father are one.
“If Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he
cannot stand, but hath an end” (Mark 3:26).
Over the
years, we have shown how the character attributes of the spirit of the False
Prophet (as well as the characteristics of the Spirit of Antichrist)
show the symbiotic way in which this pernicious pair of spirits functions. These
are Satan’s weapons. The False Prophet spirit takes us captive
through our Sin, and Sin escalates until it culminates in the Death
inherent in Antichrist.
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and
death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have
sinned” (Romans 5:12).
In Part
VII of The Body of Antichrist, we cited multiple examples of Prophetic
Pairs in Scripture which serve as allegory in the LORD’s efforts to
reveal the way these iniquitous powers function. In prior written works, this
formula is related to what we call The 6,7,8 Cycle.
The
“Six” represents man’s best earthly efforts, apart from God,
and the “Seven” represents the perfection of the LORD’s
finished work.
When the two interact, the cycle concludes with the “Eighth,” which is the mingled mixture of the two. “Eight” is a number that signatures new beginnings, as evidenced by the male child circumcised on the Eighth day, Eight people in the Ark of Noah, and of course, the Eighth day is actually the first day of the new week.
Because the
“Eight” has some of the sinful “Six” mingled
with the righteous “Seven,” the LORD’s influence is gradually
(and consistently) diminished in the earthly vessel.
“I know thy works, that thou are neither cold nor hot:
I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm,
and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth” (Revelation
3:15,16).
The Cold +
Hot = Lukewarm manifestation is essentially the same as the formula that
underlies Marxism. In what is frequently called the Hegelian
Dialectic (named after German philosopher George Immanuel Hegel in
the 19th century, it is expressed as Thesis versus Antithesis
equals Synthesis. The Thesis is the Truth, the Antithesis is Another
Truth, and they collide until they merge into the Synthesis of the two.
The
Synthesis is then thought to be the new “updated” truth, so the
process repeats with the Synthesis as the new Thesis. This “Dialogue to
Consensus” is deadly, and it is the same thing as the 6,7,8 Cycle.
We have
previously produced works which dub this formula The Iniquity Machine,
as well as The Perdition Engine.
When the 6,7,8
Cycle concludes, as previously noted, the “Eighth” become
the new starting point as the process is repeated. Once again, man’s best
effort is seen in all Six of the stages (as man was created on the Sixth day),
however the Scripture militates that in mankind’s fleshly fallen state,
there is no good thing.
“For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh), dwelleth no good
thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I
find not” (Romans 7:18).
In the
Spiritual symbolism indicated by the LORD in Genesis in the creation account,
the “Seven” represents resting in the finished work of God. As the
Lord’s presence (represented by the “Seven”) impacts the
“Six” of the creation, the result is the melding of the two, which
is seen in the “Eight.”
It’s
crucial that we recognize the Eighth day is the First day of the new week,
indicating a new beginning, so the “Eight” is actually the First of
a new count of Six; and since part of the “Eight” was the previous
“Six,” as the cycle is repeated, eventually your
“Eight” can look like your “Six.”
This is revealed in the mysterious verse in Revelation.
“And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is [the
Sixth], and the other [the Seventh] is not yet come; and when he
cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not,
even he is the Eighth, and is [comprised] of the Seven, and goeth
into perdition” (Revelation 17:10,11).
Ironically, JESUS CHRIST outlined this mystical formula in
another Scripturally recorded episode even before the book of Revelation was
written!
In the
Gospels, we see the account of the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well. While
the disciples went away to buy food when the LORD and the disciples were in
Samaria, Jesus asked the woman to give him some water. When the woman wondered
why a Jewish man was even speaking to a Samaritan woman (as the Samaritans were
descended from the Northern tribes of Israel which were defiled as they mingled
themselves with the Gentiles), Jesus referenced the gift of God.
“If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee,
Give me to drink: thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee
living water” (John 4:10).
The
Samaritan woman noted that he had no vessel with which to draw the water from
the well, so where was this living water? Jesus responded that when you drink
the water from this earthly well, you will eventually be thirsty again.
“But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall
never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of
water springing up into eternal life” (John 4:14).
When she
responded that she would like to drink the water he was speaking of, Jesus
told her to call her husband and come back to the well. When she said she had
no husband, we find the statement that is the basis for the equation in
Revelation!
“Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: For
thou hast had five husbands; and he who thou now has is not thy
husband” (John 4:18).
Essentially,
Christ’s interaction showed that the “five [that] are
fallen” are the five husbands the woman “had” (past tense);
and adding to the equation, we see the formula continues with “one
is” – which is the one she has now!
The woman,
clearly astonished at this stranger’s knowledge of her personal life
history, said that she perceives he was a prophet. She then recounted the divided
nation of Israel – when the Northern tribes broke away from Jerusalem,
and tried to set up alternative places of worship.
“[The Samaritan woman said] Our fathers worshiped in this
mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to
worship” (John 4:20).
Jesus, anticipating the New Covenant, responded
with a revolutionary statement.
“Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this
mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father” (John 4:21).
Jesus
then proceeded to speak of the New Covenant that was still unknown at that
time:
“The hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall
worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to
worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in
spirit and in truth” (John 4:24).
The woman
then indicated she believed in the forthcoming Saviour of Israel.
“I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is
come, he will tell us all things. Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee
am he” (John 4:25).
Folllowing
the flow of the exchange, we see the assertion of Jesus that He is the Christ,
then mirrors the Seventh in the chronology.
“And the other [the Seventh] is not yet come; and when he
cometh, he must continue a short space” (Revelation 17:10).
As the
disciples returned, the Samaritan woman went back to her city and proclaimed to
the men:
“Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: Is not
this the Christ? And many of the Samaritans of that city believed
on him. And said unto the woman, not because of thy saying: for we have heard
him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the
world” (John 4:29, 39, 42).
Thus we see
a positive outcome, as some of the Samaritans lives were changed through
Jesus. As the 6,7,8 Cycle continues on a daily, those who receive more
of the LORD within each week, progress towards glory, refined and cleansed.
However, the Cycle also indicates there are two other categories.
Those who
did not receive the “Seven” in their lives are already dead;
and those who did receive the “Seven” in a shallow form of
commitment, will eventually be leavened, and continue to move back towards the
“Six,” where they are absorbed by the Body of Antichrist.
But more on
the potential outcomes of the 6,7,8 Cycle will have to keep for another
installment of The Body of Antichrist.
