What stands out today…
“Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, firstborn of the dead…” “…loves us and freed us of our sins by his blood.”
•Jesus= witness = firstborn of the dead = love = we are free
•Jesus already had title firstborn of dead before dying huh..just trying to lead our assumptions here
“Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him…”
• Jesus = firstborn of the dead = coming back with the clouds = love
“I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus…”
•John = partner in tribulation, kingdom, and endurance
•John = Partner in (failure/success/trying)
“Loud voice like a trumpet”
“the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches”
•given: stars = angels of churches
“…To the one who conquers I will grant to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.’”
•given: success = eating from tree of life
-live forever immortality? (XXXXX)
•given: conquers = success
- Jesus already conquered..? Interesting
•given: success = one
-one… two who’ve become one? Or just one?
-one with God?
-we are one with God (ish can’t hold fully God alone…but God should be blend….hmmmmmm…blend or perfection or both?????????) (XXXXX)
• variable: what dat look like (many times apply liberally)
““And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write…”
•angels = active and present playing roles
“Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life…The one who conquers will not be hurt by the second death.’”
•suffer = guaranteed
-check everyone
•do not be afraid = necessary for success
- attainable for everyone
•faithful unto death = critical for success
-attainable
•faithful unto death = crown of life
•conquers = not hurt by second death
-***
•given: crown of life = success
•given: not hurt by second death = success
•unafraid = success
•faithful unto death = success
““…write: ‘The words of him who has the sharp two-edged sword.”
•the word of him who holds the truth
-two edged truth
“… war against them with the sword of my mouth.”
“…To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.’”
•success = hidden manna
- (XXXXX) above and below
•success = white stone
*white stone has a new name that nobody but the one who receives it knows
-God knew our name before birth…
“…I am he who searches mind and heart”
“But to the rest of you…who do not hold this teaching, who have not learned what some call the deep things of Satan, to you I say, I do not lay on you any other burden. Only hold fast what you have until I come.”
Interesting…
•“What some call” love the phrasing..
But
•“You who haven’t learned the thing I’m admonishing…I don’t give you another burden.”
•Not “you’re right, here you go you win” but.. “just stay there..I’ll work with that when I get back..” hmmm
-you’re where I want you for now…more to come, get the others on board, consistent
“The one who conquers… I will give authority over the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron, as when earthen pots are broken in pieces, even as I myself have received authority from my Father. And I will give him the morning star.”
•given: Success = authority over nations
-are we not kings? Jesus = king of kings
•given: success = ruling with rod of iron
-we should be doing this (kind of are-subconscious, “body knows”)
*rod of iron: as when earthen pots are broken in pieces
*rod of iron: as I myself have received authority
•success = broken in pieces
-everyone’s been broken
•success = receiving authority the way Jesus did
•success = given morning star
-everyone “has” morning star, but meaning what exactly?, if sc is answer…? (XXXXX)
““ …‘The words of him who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars.”
-7
-seven spirits- seven stars
- (XXXXX)
“…If you will not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come against you.”
•don’t repent = come against you and you won’t know it
-subconscious, world, life
•success = coming against you and you do know it, recognizing God
-attainable
-Job didn’t succeed by not being harmed, he succeeded by understanding
“Yet you have still a few names in Sardis, people who have not soiled their garments, and they will walk with me in white, for they are worthy. The one who conquers will be clothed thus in white garments, and I will never blot his name out of the book of life. I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels.”
•given: success = white garments
-people are alive who’ve succeeded..not “one”
-people can succeed and not succeed?
-I will confess….witness…see you
•given: success = book of life spot secured (already in-not removed)
•success= recognition-witness-mirror?
I’m tired
Okay.
““…‘The words of the holy one,… who opens and no one will shut, who shuts and no one opens.”
Revelation 3:7
-like idk changing peoples minds?
-showing them how to have more mastery of their subconscious and the world around them????
-almost like every time you learn something about history you change in ways that won’t be undone???
-opens and no one can shut
-shuts and no one can open
“The one who conquers, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God. Never shall he go out of it, and I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own new name.”
Revelation 3:12
•given: success=
=made into pillar in temple of God (your body is my temple)
= never go out of it (lol)
= God’s name is written on him (God’s name written in heart? Supposedly haven’t confirmed personally) (XXXXX)
= name of new city of God, Jerusalem, written on him (new city comes from God out of heaven)
= “my own new name” written on him (John writes this but says it’s the words of Jesus-noted)
““‘I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.”
Revelation 3:15-16
-again: one way or the other go all out because…….->
“Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent.”
Revelation 3:19
-God loves us all and you gon find out
“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne.”
Revelation 3:20-21
•success= God sits with you
•success= God eats with you
•success= sit on throne with God as “I have also conquered and sat down with my father” (again, John writes it, but it’s Jesus’ words-interesting)
“After this I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven! And the first voice, which I had heard speaking to me like a trumpet, said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.””
Revelation 4:1
-variables done being handed out so freely
-now prophecy
“At once I was in the Spirit, and behold, a throne stood in heaven, with one seated on the throne.”
Revelation 4:2
-“in the spirit” noted
“And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say, “Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!””
Revelation 4:8
-being in heaven sounds like God’s praises and reminders that he was and is and is to come constantly.. interesting
“And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?” And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it, and I began to weep loudly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it. And one of the elders said to me, “Weep no more; behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.””
Revelation 5:2-5
-striking to me that a question was asked even heard on earth…
-no one declared it was them..Jesus was declared..and not until he genuinely died
“And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation, and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.””
Revelation 5:8-10
-they sprinkled the prayers of the saints over this moment…. How many times do “saints prayers” pop in our heads..
-they sang a new song
-his action ended the old song
-he could now also say in his head that he was worthy
-NO ONE is excluded from being a priest or being in the kingdom, they ARE reigning
“Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!” And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!” And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” and the elders fell down and worshiped.”
Revelation 5:11-14
-many “angels” crying out new song that is allowed now.
- EVERY person and animal actually declares out loud at least one time..God is real…in some words or another
Next one has a lot to unpack….
———
So- Revelation 6:1-17 - is below for a while
-it’s messy I’m not putting quotes and shit. It’ll be aight.
“Now I watched when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of
-he never says anything about these creatures speaking a word with their mouths in this section.. just that he heard it-interesting..
the four living creatures say with a voice like thunder, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a white horse! And its rider had a bow, and a crown was given to him, and he came out conquering, and to conquer.
-WH= success for rider and white horse
-WH= came out conquering and to conquer
-WH= bow (weapon?), crown (authority)
(XXXXX)
-bow..conquers from afar?
When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.
-RH= takes peace
-RH= people slain (due to lack of peace)
-RH= great sword (sword = truth; false truth?—— truth juuuust truth enough to not be “lie”?)
When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, “A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine!”
-BH= holding scales
-during black horse = hearing weights and measurements and prices spouted off…and hearing to not harm oil and wine……. Interesting
-oil and wine = ? Protected goods? Value holds while inflation roams? Saved value
When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” And I looked, and behold, a pale horse! And its rider’s name was Death, and Hades followed him. And they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by wild beasts of the earth.
-PH= rider named Death
-PH= Hades following him
—when death becomes culture?
-PH= authority to kill
-PH= 1/4 Earth population death potential
-PH= kills with sword (truth? False truth again?)
-PH= kills with famine (lack of knowledge too?)
-PH= kills with pestilence (disease progressed)
-PH= kills with wild beasts of earth (animals..people?..etc?)
When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the witness they had borne.
-souls of slain= died for word + witness they created (“borne”)
They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
-again not explicitly stated with their mouths…could be another layer to subconscious unraveled before our eyes…maybe before John’s as well
-reads like “how long until you free our people” not “kill their descendants”
-reads like “how long until you free us! We have died inside of here!!! For what? Nothing if you don’t conquer your head!”
Then they were each given a white robe and told to rest a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves had been.
-rich layered meanings here.. (and everywhere)
-some need to physically die
-a lot need to mentally die
When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake,
-one time I read this and my brain showed me an alternate meaning, within meany meanings, don’t know what it means but take it for what you will, it interpreted it in many senses but once latched onto that day was different ways this ‘earthquake’ could potentially be alerts sent out- news, tweets, texts.. it insisted on this for a while….. feels significant in some way
-he SAW an earthquake…. Interesting..
and the sun became black as sackcloth,
-….sun going black- nukes? Phones going out? Many such options, your head? Etc.
the full moon became like blood,
-we already have red moons… and you can only really see em at night..not alarming
and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale.
-we have meteor showers too-not alarming
-stars fell..angels..inhabit people’s minds? People get freed all at once?
The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.
-I can’t read this as anything but nukes yet
-“the sky” in the little world each of our supercomputers is programming
Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains, calling to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?””
-so many people claiming things about bunkers and blah blah not surprising to me
-run inside your head
*******Master the mental world—it’s killing its own witnesses!!!*******
“saying, “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.””
Revelation 7:3
-Don’t harm the earth until we have the witness needed…interesting…
“Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, “Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?” I said to him, “Sir, you know.” And he said to me, “These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.”
Revelation 7:13-14
-“Sir you know” always hits me hard
-“you already know”
-after what you know..this is who they appear as
-why 144,000?
-where does this echo in life?
-is this the number of flavors of evidence required? Just a way to share a small “truth” and throw us off?
“For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.””
Revelation 7:17
-I haven’t even wiped every tear from my eyes…that’s God through me and everyone else and even the wind or water!
“When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.”
Revelation 8:1
-this opened my fucking eyes the first time I read it!
-it was after I’d experienced silence in my head for the first time
-beautiful
“and the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose before God from the hand of the angel.”
Revelation 8:4
-God experiencing prayers as incense
-striking, beautiful
“Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth, and there were peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.”
Revelation 8:5
-texts, tweets, updates
-causalities, more natural disasters (already have natural disasters anyways)
-flashes of inspiration, sparks in heart, bursts of rage, egos falling, egos rising
Then the text follows with more examples like this but one really landed less as an echo and more as a new statement
“The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the water, because it had been made bitter.”
Revelation 8:11
-wormwood
-WW= 1/3 people die from ingesting bitter water
-WW= star
-WW= 1/3 of the waters
-reminds me of “this will be bitter in your stomach but sweet in your mouth”
-truth= bitter in stomach+sweet in mouth
-bitter ≠ poison
-It kept repeating various ways the world was harmed and my brain kept repeating ways it could be interpreted physically and inside the mind and cosmically, for lack of better word
“And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key to the shaft of the bottomless pit. He opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft. Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth. They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. They were allowed to torment them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them. In appearance the locusts were like horses prepared for battle: on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces, they had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the noise of their wings was like the noise of many chariots with horses rushing into battle. They have tails and stings like scorpions, and their power to hurt people for five months is in their tails. They have as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek he is called Apollyon.”
Revelation 9:1-7, 9-11
I’m tired so I won’t add much now..
-reads like mental torment to me..I don’t know if I could explain this to somehow who doesn’t already understand
I’m gonna stop. I’m tired.
