Moving on (from recurrence)

How do I know I'm moving on (from recurrence) and that I'm no longer in the Kingdom of Satan? God has called me. He's gathered me. It's done. Effectual calling. I know the voice of the Shepherd, and I value it. I fear God alone and not man. I'm trustworthy to God. I'm one of His.

There's power in these verses:

POWER!!!

Damn it.

There's real, and then there's screwin' around.

WAKE UP!!! (I shout into the mirror.)

Why? Aren't you going to be in the same straits once
glorified? Looking for and thinking up stuff to do?

I don't know. It will probably be different,
methinks. Safe to say it will be different. Right
now we are in a difficult in-between state and
condition. Even when totally asleep we are in fallen
flesh bodies which are rather unfortunate and limited
tabernacles. Even if you have one others want to
devour then after-the-fact it's yeah, hm, right, ok,
gotta go.

And anyway I've already solved all that. It's on my
Plain Path Puritan blog. How in heaven you become the
actual material and events of heaven. It's probably
freaky at first until you begin to get the hang of it
then it's like Greek myth somewhat. Now we see
through a glass darkly.

Everything's been solved.

Over and over.

Just as in heaven you become the actual material and
events of heaven it's the same now with understanding.
If you develop understanding it actually becomes your
being, your body. We can see and feel understanding
residing in the Word of God. And in the influx of the
Holy Spirit and mortifying process of Work efforts.

Now go to the world you ungrateful vain children.
Away! Off with you. I'm the only one who knows
anything. I alone am here, awake, not dead in sin. I
alone. Me it is who knows, no one else. You have no
allies when you know and do the Work. None but me.
I, and I alone. - Me

From plowboy to king

One of the reasons (a big underlying, unrecognized reason) it is so rare for someone to connect with and get real understanding of the Bible (other than issues of regeneration) is the fact that the Bible is a document for royalty. To get into it is like getting into, at first, something that is above you, or that is 'not you', sort of like getting interested in aristocracy when you are a plowboy. What does that have to do with me? the plowboy says and feels. A Christian is a king, and part of a royal priesthood. It takes awhile to come into realization of that. Meanwhile the Bible presents itself to the still-plowboy as some kind of transaction or business carried out in a royal court where the plowboy has never been nor would be welcome. In the worldly sense. But as the plowboy by degree comes into realization of his new state of being a king and a priest and a prophet he begins to not only see the royal nature of the teachings of the Bible - covenants, for instance - but he slowly begins to appropriate them just as by faith he appropriates the saving work of the King of kings Jesus Christ.

Communion with God

Communion with the Triune God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - is the center-of-gravity of the faith. It's what the Work develops as well. It's what you need in life and in death, unless you are in the Kingdom of Satan and want to be there.

Bodyguard of angels

With connection to Christ comes having a bodyguard of angels. Being a king attended by angels. And having the ability, the right, to ask for anything from God and getting it. Ask and ye shall receive. Connection to Christ via the Spirit is all. Citizenship in the Kingdom of God.
