HE WHO IS ENTHRONED!

To fully explain the meaning of this sub-Section, we need to now carefully examine particular Scriptures from ‘The Book of Revelation’ -- that Book of which no word is to be altered -- handed down to us by the John whom Jesus proclaimed as the “none greater among men”. If we very carefully note the following references, we can readily see that there are, indeed: TWO! Chapters 4, 5, 6 and 7 state this reality. So, in Revelation 4:2, John observed:
   “...a throne in the heaven, and upon the throne an Occupant”.

We have already established that The One Who Comes is Enthroned! And in Revelation 4:9, those in attendance:

He is therefore The One with GOD in the beginning through Whom all things came into existence at the start of Creation. In Revelation 5:2-5John then saw a book:

John ‘wept much’, because ‘...no one was found worthy to open the book, or even to gaze at it’. Then he reports, ‘But one of the elders said to me’:

John then saw:

In this momentous revelation from The ‘Book’ of Revelation, we have a Throne upon which an Occupant sits i.e., One Enthroned. And Who was with GOD at the beginning of Creation and through Whom all things were made. In close attendance are what we might perhaps term “the whole host of the heavens”, Angels, Elders, and Beings. Now, however, we also have the Lamb, Who is able to open The Book.

Who, then, is the Lamb?

The Lamb is clearly not the Occupant of the Throne, for the Lamb is between the Throne and the four Beings. And the Occupant of the Throne is the One Who both lives for ever and ever and yet Who has created all things – “for His purpose”. But He is not:

The Almighty: --- GOD Himself!

“For no man hath seen God at any time.”

Once again, the answer to Who is designated as occupying the Throne lies in the earlier Scripture in this Discourse:

Reader, let’s repeat the key point again. Bear with us in our struggle of ongoing yet crucially-necessary “repetition and reinforcement” to try to enlighten even just a few of the “leaders” of at least the Christian religion to awaken them from their ‘sleep’ of two thousand years of terrible distortion of the Truth of GOD; which, without a spiritual awakening, will become “The sleep of Death” for the vast majority of Christians. A simple yet momentous Event: The Revelation thus states the Occupant of the Throne to be the ‘He’ Who was present with God ‘from the beginning’. It is the same He, also, by Whom everything came into existence and, moreover, is The One Who Comes.

Because this issue is so vital to a correct understanding of revelatory prophecy -- and thus to the final fate of every individual on Earth -- let us once more ask the key question of the moment:

Who is the Lamb?

Whilst the designation, Lamb, would be regarded, grammatically, as a “which” and not a “who”, the sureness of the personal pronoun, He, in this case reveals that that description clearly refers to a person. Surely, then, the only logical conclusion to draw is that the Lamb is He, Jesus. For if we do not acknowledge that as the Truth here, a major problem rears its uncomfortable head with the following passages from Revelation 5:7-8:

The very word, ‘from’, is unequivocal in its brutally-clear meaning. Even with such clarity, however, there will yet be many who will refuse to “see”; who will refuse to acknowledge the Truth of our assertions. Paradoxically, they may well use the very book that we quote from to say it cannot be so. Indeed, they must use this same book, for the very many variations of Christian Church beliefs and interpretations derive their so-called authority from the Bible. And ultimately therefrom, their ‘Christian mandates’ which say to the faithful of all the different, individual, congregations: “Only our interpretation can be correct.”

Of course, all will rise or fall on exactly the interpretation clung to. So, let us quote a few more Scriptural gems to further clarify the Truth of what we are saying. Now: Just as the host praised the Occupant on the Throne as being worthy to receive the majesty, honour and might, so do they also offer the same to the Lamb.

Both have now been honoured equally -- as separate Individuals! For the next Verse very clearly illustrates this delineation between the Occupant of the Throne and the Lamb. The very words in Revelation 5:13-14, themselves so state it in the separative-conjunction — “and”!

A far stronger message of warning about the Truth that this Discourse contains can be read in Revelation 6:16-17. Here the same delineation, but a very firm reference to a dual working at the end-time, as we previously stated.

What do we understand the word, their, to mean? Even to the youngest English language reader it would obviously mean what it says. It means more than one.

This simple and short, everyday English word must surely be the single most important pointer to finally showing that there are, indeed, Two Sons of God! What else could possibly be needed?

If this crystal-clear Scripture is not proof enough for at least the Christian doubters, then all that is left to finally force an awakening within their ranks will be the very sign of the Son of Man. Just as we clearly understand the meaning of the word, their, I am sure we also understand the meaning of the word, “anger”. Associated with the previous key word, their, this powerful Scripture should, therefore, be the one that finally awakens mankind! For whom are They angry at?

There can only be one group of creatures who would deserve such Divine Wrath. That is mankind on Earth! Who, indeed, can stand against Their anger? Let’s now hear that as written by the Hand of Power of The Son of Man. From “IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH”:

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

IMANUEL:
THE SON OF MAN!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Who, indeed, can stand against Their anger, i.e. JESUS and IMANUEL: -----
THE SON OF GOD and THE SON OF MAN?

Righteous Anger, Divine Wrath: Through the outworking of The Divine Laws of Creation that is what is being directed against all the inexcusable and evil garbage we have produced over millennia! Do we deserve it? The poisoning of planet earth for financial and political expediency, the collapsing state of global societies, the exponential expansion of political instability, deceit, and the increasing madness of religious ruthlessness literally screams the loudest possible YES!

Remember now, reader; “our God Who sits upon the throne” is not The Almighty: It is Imanuel!

As a final entry to this key issue, Revelation 7:14-17 offers the same truth. Here, John is addressed by one of the elders who ask him if he knows who the multitude is in “white robes”. John did not know so asks who they are.

This final reference to The Two from out of ‘The Revelation’ is interesting for more than the irrefutable Truth that there really are Two Sons of God. For in this particular example, we have a further clarification of very great import. Firstly, the Occupant of the Throne -- Who therefore sits on it -- protects the multitude that have cleansed their robes [their spirit] and made them white [pure] themselves. Jesus has not done it through His acceptance of death on the Cross. No, they have done it. They have achieved that state of grace by living His pure Teachings. And have therefore earned the right to, metaphorically, “stand before the Throne” and be forever protected by its Occupant.

Jesus, on the other hand, Who does not occupy the Throne –- because He has ascended the midst of the Throne and therefore stands on the same level as He on It -- nonetheless shepherds the throng. Here, also, a clear dual working, and one of equal Majesty, Power and Governance.

Notwithstanding such a clear statement about their dual working, we reinforce here again the especial and distinct demarcation between The Two Sons of God. Once more for the “spiritually obtuse”; this is defined by the fact that they possess two different Names – Jesus and Imanuel. And they have two different Titles -- Son of God and Son of Man.

It is very simple to see, therefore, that they also have two different Tasks -- for two different Purposes. The Son of God, Jesus, as The Word, also designated as The Love of God Who therefore works in Love, emphasised that He had ‘not come to judge’! (John 12:47)

The Son of Man as The Will of GOD does, however. The Will, moreover, is the complete Will. As we have already clearly explained, The Son of Man is thus The Spirit of Truth, The Holy Spirit, The Eternal Mediator -- and thus The Justice of GOD. It is He Who therefore brings the Judgement! Though a Judgement of Divine Wrath, it is a ‘cleansing and sifting’ nonetheless inherently imbued with the inseparable qualities of Perfect Justice and Perfect Love. So we have therein a Dual Working of Divine Power: That of The Two Sons of God in the Judgement.

Yet even though there is individual working contained within those designated tasks, both ‘Sons’ are nevertheless in God, The Father! And God, The Father, is in Both! Quite simply and clearly, therefore, “The TWO”, and The LORD OF ALL, comprise:

The TRINITY! The TRIUNE GOD!

In that Divine Reality — the outworking and understanding of which is forever denied to we human beings — may nonetheless be understood the meaning of the previous Scripture from Revelation 7:10; i.e., “...our God, Who sits upon the throne...” One more hammering to hopefully lock this Truth into the spirits of a few more awakened human spirits:

‘The One Enthroned’, Whom ‘John the Revelator’ was granted to see, is that Part of The TRIUNE GOD Who is HIS WILL!

As a further reference to A Trinity, we can briefly include the prophet Zakariah’s vision that we previously noted about Two Sons of Oil (4:1-5, Fenton)

Taken all together, these explanations clearly point to a major interpretative error by the Christian Church and its many theologians historically. For the analyses herein really do clarify the Truth and Status of The Trinity. Certainly the meaning is clear enough; or should be for even the basically-perceptive reader. So the supposed mystery of The Trinity is not actually a mystery at all. Neither is it meant to be since we are enjoined by Law and Divine Directive to seek -- and thus find!

Factually, we can certainly know what the term, Trinity, means. However, for we humans who are merely ‘developed beings’ of the far lower level of Subsequent Creation -- the ‘mysterious’ aspect associated with The Divine Trinity centres on the humanly-incomprehensible -- thus never-to-be-understood -- concept of: — A/ The:

“TRIUNE GOD”!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Human language cannot even begin to express such an ‘idea’, let alone somehow relate to It or engage with It meaningfully in any shape or form. Therefore, we must simply forever let such an ‘overwhelming concept’ be the greatest “Divine Mystery” of all.

DESTRUCTION BY FIRE

A later Discourse --- “THE FIRE” OF ISLAM: “FIRE” IN THE KORAN, --- centres on precisely this Sub-Title. The reason we will visit it here is because of the powerful and direct reference to ‘”FIRE” being an aspect of The Law, and is thus associated with Imanuel, The Holy Spirit. This section, therefore, will only cover the primary meaning of “Fire” as referred to in the Koran.

Reader, the full Discourse further on will provide full and illuminating explanations of “Fire” from Koranic verse. In brief here, however; to understand this meaning, we need to marry part of the Book of 2 Peter from the Bible with part of “The Book of Esdras” from The Apocrypha.

The question of “Destruction by Fire” has long been mulled over theologically and has now also been assessed from the scientific standpoint. From the earth-science perspective -- and perhaps to a large degree from the theological side with regard to an Apocalyptic scenario -- destruction by fire for global humanity tends towards such things as intense and widespread volcanic activity, a meteor impact, extreme drought, and perhaps prolonged solar activity.

Yet the real answer, whilst simple and straightforward, is ultimately far more profound for us human beings of Planet Earth than any notion which might suggest catastrophic events as being the primary driver for destruction by fire, and humanity thereby being physically burned. Though, of course, with certain natural phenomena, that is not just possible but very likely for some. Moreover, even for very many when such phenomena finally give vent to its full power at its time of ordination. Now, whilst that will one day be a problematic reality for humankind, the distilled meaning of ‘destruction by fire’ here means something very, very different.

The key to understanding the meaning of “Destruction by Fire” is found in the statement of disciple Peter:

We well know by now that the arrival of Imanuel as The Spirit of Truth heralded the beginning of the judgement, for it was He Who came to “reprove the world of sin” and thus He Who “will bring the judgement”. Remember that, global Christianity: He, not Jesus!

The next segment from The Book of Esdras provides the link with 2 Peter. The aspects of primary significance in this particular analysis are emphasised either in italics, in bold, underlined, capitalised, or varying combinations of all.

Here we have a clear pointer linking the warnings of Peter -- thus from the Bible -- through the clarified vision of Ezra -- from the Apocrypha -- to the outworking of The Divine Laws of Creation on the affairs of mankind. Only with the essential contribution of the prophet, Ezra, can the true spiritual meaning of “Destruction by Fire” be answered logically. And only with the requisite spiritual guidance to link the Bible with the Apocrypha could we reveal that answer: An answer automatically mandated by the fact of the Perfection of those very Laws of Creation.

The crucial knowledge of Creation-Law now on earth in written form, heralds the impending and total collapse of all facets of wrong human behaviour and endeavour. The associated destruction should be recognised as being produced by the spiritually-lawful effect of the “fire”; which is:

That is the key to understanding the effect of The Living Words of The Law! Whether written or spoken by ‘The One’ -- The Son of Man -- Who brought the “Complete Truth”: The ‘Formed Word’ Proclaimed by Him is thus transformed into commensurate real-time outworking over the period of its ordained fulfilment in The World of Matter. And therewith is produced -- under the aegis of Inviolable Law in Creation -- the outworking of Peter’s proclamatory “destruction by fire” upon our completely aspiritual global societies, cultures and religions. Quite obviously, therefore, very many of we -- the agglomerated human race -- will fully experience Peter’s prophecy.

Therefore, human works that comply with The Law will quite naturally prosper. Works that do not will suffer destruction. By this infallible measure we may recognise what is true to The Law and what is not. The ‘fire’ of The Law thus unerringly produces the concomitant cleansing effect; [also The Law]. The powerful impact of the storm, the flames and the fire - which are all already strongly affecting mankind so detrimentally now -– is solely the result of our intransigence, arrogance and stupidity in refusing to believe or accept the one single and ultimate reality in the whole of Creation. And that is:

That only THE LAW — CREATION-LAW — reigns Supreme!

There is nothing else! Everything in all of the Creations was formed from out of The Living Law Itself: From out of The Will of GOD – IMANUEL! It is He Who thus brought The Living Law --- which is the ‘cleansing fire’ spoken of in The Book of Esdras.

Therefore, what we even now experience in this 21^st century is nevertheless still just the beginnings of the storm, the flames and the fire i.e., -- The Law. Not so long ago, the following questions would have been legitimate: Is His arrival imminent? Or is He here? Such questions today are now totally irrelevant. He was here, but not now, for HE has already been!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

THE ‘RAPTURE’: A STRANGE DISTORTION OF BIBLE TRUTH!

Whilst the notion of the “Rapture” is not seriously connected to this Discourse, we have included it here for it is a truly ridiculous and false concept, and a terrible distortion of The Truth brought to earth by Imanuel. You will have read His indictment in His Lecture, “EARTHMAN BEFORE HIS GOD”, on us human beings of planet earth, so one more inane and impossible belief, the ‘Rapture’, “bites the dust” in accordance with precise Creation-Law.

The expected return of Jesus by one very large, mainly strange American, group of Christians involves, for them, the interesting notion that they, and they alone as a group from all humankind, will be “saved” by being “raptured”. The concept of “The Rapture” as applied in this case takes the form of an event or process more fully formulated from earlier ideas mooted by an evangelical preacher, John Nelson Darby, who arrived in the U.S. in 1862. His minister, Cyrus Scofield, expanded the evangelist’s ideas in the prominent Scofield Reference Bible.

Drawn from the Apostle Paul’s seeming assertion that believers could or would be “lifted up to Christ in heaven”, the idea of being “raptured to heaven” must presuppose that it is in the physical body since it all happens in an instant. That at least seems to be the general conviction of believers. However, in concert with The Almighty’s Perfect and thus Unchangeable Laws -- which, by the way, accord with Perfect, Natural, Laws derived from the higher Spiritual paradigm -- human physical bodies cannot be suddenly transformed and/or whisked away to sit on clouds or something similar.

Even The Son of God Himself could not circumvent The Perfect Laws that He came to fulfil: “I come not to overthrow the Laws...”

Do Christians really believe that the non-material and therefore Eternal ‘Realm’ of what is so loosely designated as ‘heaven’ is some kind of jaunt ‘just up there’? Jesus told Pilate that His Kingdom was not of this world; and to His Disciples said that He would return to The Father and they would “see Him no more”. How can it be that many millions will accept an idea that is an absolute impossibility according to the Perfect Laws of He Whose teachings of Perfect Truth those same millions no doubt profess to believe in and follow? His Kingdom which was “not of this [material] world”, obviously had to be, and is, a non-material one.

Phenomenal sales of the “Left Behind” series which promote the “rapture” concept, and which have apparently sold over 50 million copies, clearly point to at least that many believers. Yet the sage observation of key Scriptures of warning should be made by all who wish to be “raptured”:

And for the authors who have made millions of dollars but in the process of growing rich already led millions astray now:

“What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul?”

Should we designate the so-called “rapture” to be some kind of “Divine mystery”? After all, men prefer a mystery to Truth! No, it is not any kind of “mystery” at all simply because the concept of “rapture”, as taught and believed by people in the Christian Church, is not only completely wrong, but ludicrous and laughable into the bargain.

It is more an emotive concept ultimately derived from indulging human religious weaknesses. It does not exist and will not happen because the whole idea actually opposes all notions of necessarily Perfect Laws deriving from The Almighty. Disbelieving or dismissive Christians at this time of rapidly approaching “closures” will one day soon reel in shock and horror as the cold truth of these statements becomes brutally clear.

The rapid approach of the end of human foolishness, driven by increasing pressure from The Light Above, therefore means that all human concepts are exposed to the Power of that relentless pressure. In the case of the notion of ‘The Rapture’, its time of exposure and belief is perhaps at, or nearing, its peak. It has therefore gone through the necessary phase of revealing itself in its true nature; it has offered itself as a concept to those who have chosen it as truth; those choices have thus largely been made; and all that is left now is its collapse at the appointed time, and therewith, its demise. There is therefore no further need to comment on what will almost certainly be:

The greatest non-event in human history!

As we near the end of this pivotal Discourse, we will once more contend with Islam’s relentless and implacable opposition to any belief that the All-Truth really is the rightful and Divinely-Ordained preserve of Imanuel, the actual Spirit of Truth. We will therefore give one more airing to Koranic verse and commentary before we close this Discourse with a final declaration!

The Koranic verse we have chosen for this sub-section is probably one of the more appropriate verses for exactly this point in the Work, for we have heaped Proclamation upon Proclamation, in reinforcement after reinforcement to try to instil in you, reader, the critical nature of what we must say. So, in the light of all we have written thus far and especially in this very Discourse, let’s read what this interesting verse (7:53) says.

A very powerful verse, but one that is almost the ultimate two-edged- weapon for the religion of Islam, and one about which M.M. Ali really has no idea of the great spiritual danger he strongly promotes in the defence of Islam vis-à- vis:

ISLAM, O ISLAM: Can you not see that that very verse| represents the Sword of Divine Justice, and it hangs over your religion ready to deliver its blow! This very Discourse opens the way for you to let go of your wrong teachings. The fulfilment of the prophecies which brought about “the ultimate state of the perfect manifestation of truth”, and thus “the end” or “the ultimate consequence” is now pointed out to you in this very Discourse.

It is IMANUEL’s “IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH”!

Discourse 7 lists all the Lectures Imanuel has written in that stupendous Work. There you will see the vast array of subjects that, together, give every single answer to every question that humankind has ever asked. It contains infinitely far more than all the libraries of philosophy, science and religion put together.

Too bold a claim, do you think reader? Very fortunately for human beings who truly “wish to know” --- it is exactly that. That is why this Work must powerfully feature Imanuel’s All-Truth, so that it might be recognised and understood by especially all adherents of monotheistic belief.

The three Face-books of Islam, Christianity, and Judaism --- the Koran, Bible and Torah --- were all correct for the human journey each in its time. Now the world has The All-Truth as the Perfect Foundation for harmonious life on earth under the aegis of The Divine Laws of Creation.

The bloody religious divisions deriving from those still-exalted books, and which have wrought really nothing but bloodshed for millennia, can surely now be left to the past!

Islam: In the light of this “All-Truth” reality, adherents of your faith that currently wage war against so-called “unbelievers” and brutally murder in the name of a ‘perfect belief’ in a supposedly ‘perfect Koran’ are now the real “unbelievers”. Muslims really do need to seriously understand that Jesus, as one PART of the TRINITY did not prophesy Muhammad. Jesus prophesied The Son of Man --- Who is the true and actual Holy Spirit --- Imanuel.

Wake up: For like every other religion on earth, you, too, have little time left to spiritually awaken, before all that is wrong in religions and everything else is utterly destroyed --- by His All-Truth. It is He Who created us. It is He Who brought The Living Laws of God to earth. It is that Living Law which, in its Power is the Koran’s “final sequel” that Islamic scholar M.M. Ali trumpets as belonging to the Muslim religion but does not.

Koranic ‘scholar’, M.M. Ali’s “final sequel” is certainly the very thing that will sweep aside all that does not bow its head, but it is not Islam that will do this. For Islam, the Koran and 1.5 billion Muslims have gone against the very WILL OF GOD.

How can you even dare to contemplate something as religiously-insane as believing you are so correct that you think you can sweep HIM aside? HE is THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH ----- not Muhammad. It is HE and HIS Laws of Creation that we must obey, or we are the ones to be swept aside, just as the great Prophet you very carefully ignore --- Isaiah --- warned so long ago.

The time for obeying religions is finished! We say it again in warning: Wake up! For like every other religion on earth, you have little time left to spiritually awaken!

A PROCLAMATION!

The terribly wrong teaching of ‘The Rapture’ by the Christian Church pales into insignificance when compared with the greatest distortion of all; that there has only ever been one Son of GOD. The powerful outworking of The Law from ordained scriptural prophecy is perfectly proclaimed here in the Divine Warning:

“Vengeance [THE LAW] is mine, I will repay.”

Divine Law will thus visit its terrifying reciprocity on all who subscribe to this appalling distortion of The Living Truth! Let’s repeat that, for this is our “Tasked Mission”: ------- To Proclaim IMANUEL as The Spirit of Truth, The Holy Spirit, The Son of Man and thus The Eternal Mediator.

By direct association we are concomitantly “tasked” to also Proclaim The All-Truth that He brought to earth. In its perfected written form by His Hand, He has gifted to us His Sublime Legacy:

IN THE LIGHT OF TRUTH!

Everyone wants from their God a soft, enervating, vacillating, personalised, emotionally satisfying, earthly brand of constant and all-forgiving love. Few there are who really understand that Justice is an absolute accompaniment of The Love of The Divine!

Distorting the Truth from Above sets all who so distort it against that very Truth, and thus against its Source:

ALMIGHTY GOD!

Reader, you have now read powerful excerpts from Imanuel’s writings, and from just those small texts you will surely have recognised the serious spiritual danger that virtually the whole of global humanity is in. Not because some arbitrary and “fickle finger” suddenly comes out of the sky to target and “destroy” individuals or communities at random: No, that notion is as ludicrous as it is infantile. Subscribing to that kind of fatalism clearly reveals a complete lack of even the slightest knowledge of Creation-Law!

Imanuel’s revelation of The Two Sons of GOD is, therefore, the most “Crucial Imperative” of all -- for all humankind. This key Truth is not about being some kind of ‘Christian truth’, nor is it a point to be debated by so-called ‘experts’. The religious scholars and leaders of all ethnic groups and cultures and all religions, no matter how derived, must face this Truth here, now, at this critical juncture in human history and evolution.

That evolution was never about the “human/chimp” split that occurred millions of years ago; that scientists have placed so much importance on. Reader: We seriously refute the totally incorrect scientific obsession surrounding that foolish belief in the later Discourse dealing with the Origins of Man and our Genesis. So much wasted time and energy and research funding that would have been better spent examining subjects that could really benefit man.

The crucial recognition that we are not just a physical body solely is thus the key to understanding that the earth is a place of “physical transition” only, and that our actual evolution was always meant to have been that of our spiritual selves, the true human being.

However, just as primatologists, anthropologists and many other “...ologists” etc., have wasted valuable “spiritual-life” time pursuing something that was totally irrelevant for real human knowledge; so, too, have the many “monotheistic scholars” of the “big three” also wasted the same kind of valuable “life-resource” in promoting completely wrong interpretations about what is the ultimate “Truth” given to mankind in the Bible particularly:

The “Living Truth” of “The Two Sons of GOD”.

Religious scholars and ethnic and cultural leaders of belief-systems that ignore, disbelieve or outright oppose or condemn this Ultimate Truth will -- along with Christian Church leaders who also disbelieve or deny and thus lead astray -- live the full experience of the outworking of one of the very Laws that One of The Two Sons of GOD stated unequivocally He had “...not come to overthrow, but to fulfil.”

Earth-science and all the great religions state that key Law in basically similar terms; ‘The Law of Sowing and Reaping’, ‘The Iron Law of Karma’ == ‘The Law of Reciprocal Action’. Do we not see the effect of the increasing power of this Inviolable Law every day now?
