THE WORD OF GOD AND THE RECORD OF THE WORD OF GOD

The WORD OF GOD is not a written thing it is a VOICE, meaning, it is alive and not dead. The WORD OF GOD is written in the fleshy tables of the hearts of men in spirit and not in ink. A man can only write the WORD OF GOD  as a RECORD. The scripture says that God is actively engaged with humans as he speaks with men. GOD IS ALIVE and is the God of all the living. It is a matter of trying every spirits  and not believing every spirit.

·       Hebrews 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

·       John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

·       1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

The confusion and disorder emanating from the WORD OF GOD (then present) was because of the nature of man having in him the members affiliated to lust, imagination, and emotion which prompted them, of old, to speak of things not appropriate and reprobate and blasphemous. Hence, some of them became false prophets and false teachers having spoken the truth in the deceit of their own hearts. 

·       Jeremiah 23:26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;

Clearly, we can glean this experience about false teachers and prophets in the days of Eve and the Serpent in the Garden of Eden when the serpent used truth to subtly sway her to disobey the standing command of God not to eat of the fruit of the TREE OF KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL.

The confusion and disorder emanating from the RECORD OF THE WORD OF GOD (now present in the scriptures of both the Jews and the Christians) has erupted because of the private interpretation of man in the prophecies, being in the flesh and not in the spirit, which prophecies are spoken in part and parcels.

Yea, even more dangerously as knowledge puffs up by the imagination of man, knowledge and understanding has since gone wayward and haywire which is the reason of the confusion and the coming up of new gods not commanded by God;

·       1 Corinthians 13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

·       1 Corinthians 8:1 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

·       Deuteronomy 17:3 And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;

·       Deuteronomy 32:17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.

·       Jeremiah 11:8 Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil heart: therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but they did them not.

The revelations also which are time and command sensitive spurs debates among men not even taking into consideration the language and manner of God.  The WORD OF GOD then has the right man or woman to interpret and declare the things that are right just as we see this in the prophetess Huldah: much more the RECORD OF THE WORD OF GOD which were written by the inspiration of God it will dearly need the owner of that WORD to interpret it, meaning, there is a need for an interpreter, a man who has the spirit of the holy God with the spirit of interpretation.  See Daniel in the days of the King Nebuchadnezzar and King Belshazzar his son.

·       Isaiah 45:19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

·       Daniel 5:10 Now the queen, by reason of the words of the king and his lords, came into the banquet house: and the queen spake and said, O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed:

·       Daniel 5:11 There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers;

·       Daniel 5:12 Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.

 

Now, there is also the WORK OF GOD that all men has ought to know in order to dissolve doubts, confusion, and debates. The RECORD OF THE WORD OF GOD reveals that God has given gods to nations for to guide and for them to worship and glorify and not to feed their lust, imagination and emotions.

God gives the spiritual and not the material though the physical and material world are also the means and ways God would use to make people know and believe his existence and deity. Yea, God divides the inheritance to all and if we extrapolate the WORK OF GOD in the whole world we will see the relevenace of the record saying,

·       Deuteronomy 32:7 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.

·       Deuteronomy 32:8 When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

·       Deuteronomy 4:19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

It is to be noted that God by his power and authority can cause people to worship a god or an image when he commands them to do so!

We can refer this WORK OF GOD in the days at the wilderness when God commanded Moses to make the Brasen Serpent which we know later in the other scriptures that it was worshipped until the days of King Hezekiah named Nehushtan

·       2 Kings 18:4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.

·       Numbers 21:8 And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.

·       Numbers 21:9 And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.

Projecting the ancient works, ways, mind, and manner of God to the present these are all encapsulated in the WISDOM and AUTHORITY OF JESUS who told the Pharisees ye do err not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God. Moreover, Paul says, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of truth!

·       Matthew 22:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.

·       2 Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

Therefore, let all words that we speak or the word going to be spoken in the future be as the manifestation of the fruit of the Spirit in love, joy, and peace endeavoring to keep the unity of the spirit. Amen.

·       Psalms 19:14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
