DEAD HAWK: ANOTHER SIGN POINTING TO ASCENSION

/ Sandra L. Butler / Leave a comment

On March 6th of 2026, my husband discovered a dead hawk in our small fish pond. It was tagged, so he reported it to the USGS. The following morning, he decided to look up the meaning.  Hawks are often seen as messengers from the spiritual realm, intermediaries between the physical and spiritual worlds. Their keen eyesight represents vision and clarity. Their ability to soar high into the sky representing freedom and perspective. Their strength and bravery representing power and courage.

The dead hawk has different interpretations among different cultures and peoples. For the Native American, it’s a sign to heed spiritual messages and warnings. For the Christian, it’s symbolizes divine vision, ascension, and a call to seek higher spiritual truths. These are the two interpretations that are important because of what they represent. The Native American represents the Spirit of God, giving reverence to the Spirit that lives in all things. And the Christian, who gives reverence to the Holy Bible, representing the Word of God. Spirit and Word; the Christ, symbolized in scripture by the “two olive trees” or “two olive branches,” the olive pressed to make the oil used for the anointing and healing of the body, which was appropriate for the previous era. But now, in what is the spiritual “era of Jacob” (a teaching of the second revelation) it’s about healing of the soul through that spiritual anointing called christ. The Spirit has a message, warning us of the importance of seeking higher spiritual truths at his time, which come by divine revelation, which Jesus was. Jesus was the orator of spiritual truth, which was rejected, first by the Jews, and then by the Gentiles. Religion is responsible for the death of spiritual truth, assigning literal interpretations to that which is spiritual, the Church being the greatest offender, violating God’s law, which Jesus said he came not to destroy. The carnal works of the law serve as a figure for the spiritual works that fulfill them. The Church, built upon the teachings of Paul, has the “law of Christ;” a law that requires no works, just faith in a carnal man whose literal blood provides salvation, and the promise of a physical ascension that will never come.

We (those who have an ear to hear) have been given two divine revelations. The first exposed the error in Judaism and Christianity. The second, revelation of the symbolic code of the Bible, provided the key to unlocking the spiritual knowledge protected by the code for over 3500 years. The revelation began in 1998. In 2000, I begin sharing the revelatory teachings in Christian Groups on social media. After all, the knowledge received through the first revelation (1960-1974) was for them. Let’s just say, it was not well-received. As the years went on, I began to notice that more and more Christians were leaving Christianity for Judaism. This makes perfect sense when we read what Jesus said pertaining to the kingdom of heaven. Those who keep and teach the commandments of God’s law are counted “great” in the kingdom of heaven, while those who do not are counted “least” in the kingdom of heaven. Those leaving Christianity in favor of keeping God’s law were ascending to a higher position in the kingdom of heaven. What I have been witnesses over the past 25 years is spiritual ascension in the kingdom of heaven!

If those who keep the commandments and teach others to do so are counted “great” in the kingdom of heaven, who is counted “greatest” in the kingdom of heaven?  Matthew provides the answer, “Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” The humble are counted greatest in the kingdom of heaven, having made their way down to a metaphorical Jordan, meaning a descender, symbolizing their humble posture, the twelve stones placed in the Jordan symbolizing the spiritual judgment through which we become as a “little child,” pure in thought and emotion, which is the healing or salvation of the soul. These have entered the “kingdom of God,” symbolizing the “realm of the Heart, “where the judgment takes place, ascending beyond the kingdom of heaven.

The metal tag attached to the leg of the hawk had the word “loft” engraved on it.  My husband looked up the meaning and discovered it had to do with “ascension.” The word originates from Old Norse lopt, which is to be elevated, related to the English word løfte, meaning “to lift”). Yet another sign that the time for spiritual ascension in God’s Kingdom is upon us!

THE NUMBER 144 – THE YEAR 2025 – THE LIFTING OF THE VEIL (edited version)

/ Sandra L. Butler / Leave a comment

Audio Version

People have been seeing the number 144 lately, and there’s a reason for that. It’s a biblical number, so the Bible is where we will find the true meaning of the number. It has nothing to do with the mind; with consciousness. It has to do with the heart; with the subconscious. The number 144 is not associated with the “kingdom of heaven,” symbolizing the “realm of the mind”…   The number 144 is associated with the “kingdom of God,” symbolizing the “realm of the Heart.” 

For those of you who are not familiar with my story… in 1975 I met a man of no religion, who had a unique interpretation of the Bible. So intrigued by this knowledge I spent the next 19 years taking in the teachings of the revelation he received between 1960 and 1974. One evening, during Bible Study, in or around 1976, the Teacher told each of us what we represented or what our gift was. When he pointed to me, he said, “gift of knowledge.” That turned out to be true, as it was spiritual knowledge I was gifted with between 1998 and 2005 through revelation of the symbolic code of the Bible. In 1981, the man who the Teacher (in 1978) said would be coming to the group, arrived. One night, he pointed to him and said, “The Heart, there it sets, right there.” I like that he used the word “sets” instead of “sits,” indicating that this is not about the man, but about what the man represented. His sun sign is Leo, representing the Heart. We married in 1988, a representation of the union between THE HEART and SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE…

The Heart is the spiritual womb, which is female. Spiritual knowledge is the seed or word of God (Luke 8:11), which is male. Intercourse or communication between the two results in the conception of spiritual truth, which should have taken place in the heart of the people two thousand years ago, but it was rejected by the carnal mind of those of religion, first by the Jews, and then by the Gentiles… Fast forward ten years, to 1998, when I had a dream [FIRST SIGN]…  I was getting a gynecological exam. I looked over at a table and saw the number 64. The head nurse came in the room and said (referring to me) “Because of her age, she’ll be pregnant by January.” Again, this is not about the person, but about what the person represented, which is knowledge, 64 being the number of years from the start of the first revelation: 1960+64 = 2024… “pregnant by January” takes us into the year 2025, when we are to conceive of spiritual knowledge in that spiritual womb called the heart, knowledge that those that identify as God’s people lack, as spoken by the prophet Hosea, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” (4:6). I mentioned to my husband that this year, 2025, our ages add up to 144. Then he pointed out that our ages added up to 70 when we got married, and that the Teacher who married us, was 74, which adds up to 144. Marriage is the act of intercourse; when a man and a woman come together and become one flesh. Spiritual marriage or intercourse is communication… 

In December of 2024, I went back on social media after a 7-year hiatus, and found myself in the midst of Jehovah Witnesses, which I now know was not a coincidence because that’s when I learned of Charles Taze Russell, and began an in-depth study of the man and his teachings. His quote, “the truth is progressive, shining more into the perfect day,” suggests that understanding and enlightenment grow gradually, emphasizing the importance of continual learning and revelation. He spoke of the “perfection of knowledge,” referring to the spiritual knowledge we gain through revelation or understanding of the symbolic code of the Bible, which I began sharing on social media in 2000; in the dawn of the new millennium, which marked the beginning of the 7th day; the beginning of the 7th thousandth year since the fall in the garden, symbolizing the spiritual decline of mankind. The word “seven” means “perfect.” The 7th day is the perfect day, when the truth of God’s Word is made perfect through spiritual knowledge, which those of religion lack, being behind what I call “the veil of religious iniquity”… 

As I continued to research Charles Taze Russell, I came across something that I believe was by design, something that would connect Russell to my teacher, Gilbert Loman Stiles. On October 2nd 1914, Russell announced that the “Gentile Times” had ended. Stiles was born on October 2nd 1914. In 1975 he announced to our little Bible Study group that the Gentile Israel and Judah were cut off. The years 1914 and 1975 marked important events, which Russell and his successors, misinterpreted… The number 144 shows up in the ages of these two men, which my husband also pointed out. Russell died at age 64 and Stiles at age 80, their ages adding up to 144. Russell was born in 1852, dying in 1916, and Stiles was born in 1914, dying in 1994, resulting in a 2-year overlap. Total years between them (1852-1994)=142. Add in the 2-year overlap=144. These two men were instrumental in the progression of spiritual knowledge, encouraging their students to continue to learn, and to be open to the possibility of more revelation, moving beyond what they had been taught in search of a deeper spiritual understanding of God’s Word… 

[It was Charles Taze Russel that brought our attention to the 144,000, an important piece of the puzzle].

144 is a spiritual measure, “the measure of a man” (Revelation 21:17). “And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” Matthew 19:28. The number 12 represents judgment. Judging the 12 tribes of Israel formulates to 12 x 12 = 144. The “regeneration” is the process through which a new creation is formed inside of us. There were six days in the creation of heaven and earth (not to be taken literally). A day is 24 hours. Six days formulates to 6 x 24 = 144. Our new creation comes into existence through the judgment, our six (metaphorical) days of (spiritual or internal) works outlined in the first six churches in the book of Revelation. The work of the first church in Ephesus (where Paul spread his lie pertaining to the holy Spirit) is to find those that say they are apostles, but are not, liars. Paul was made apostle to the Gentiles, the three main Christian religions (Catholic, Trinity, and Pentecost) making up the Gentile Israel and Judah that was cut off in one day in 1975. But Paul’s doctrine of lies lives on in the mind of the Christian, “the veil of religious iniquity” that prevents him from seeing the spiritual truth of God’s Word. To see it they will have to experience a spiritual “apocalypse,” which means, “lifting of the veil.” 

A vision of God’s Kingdom was seen by Stiles on 7-7-77. There were “twelve columns,” symbolizing the judgment, all twelve tribes accounted for… One night, which would have been after 1981, the Teacher spoke on the Kingdom, which he had never done before, not even after receiving the vision. He spoke of the wall around the city, which like the wall that measures “an hundred and forty and four cubits” is a glorified body, which those in the city, being of pure spirit, must pass through to interact with those in the kingdom of heaven, which are in varying degrees of a type of flesh that can be seen in the spiritual realm. Adam and Eve existed in a spiritual realm, but when they disobeyed God’s word they received “coats of skins,” which were not animal skins, but physical flesh bodies that grounded them to the physical realm. Seeing themselves as naked, they hid themselves. “I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear…” Revelation 3:18. The fire symbolizes God’s judgment, which consumes the sinful flesh that has been formed inside of our physical flesh.

The two tribes associated with the city are Joseph and Benjamin, representing the two divine attributes of God, which is the Christ, the healing power through which we do the spiritual works that are synonymous with the judgment, through which we form a new creation; “a new heaven and a new earth” symbolizing “a new mind and a new heart,” which is salvation, the healing of the soul… Having been purified through the judgment, they enter a glorified state. They make up the wall of the city. They have judged themselves while on earth, reaching a spiritual measure of 144 in the 1,000-year reign of Christ, which began with the new millennium. They make up the 144,000, which Russell referred to as “the body of The seed.”

“The seed, The seed, The seed,” which Stiles heard in 1960. “What about the seed,” he asked. And with that, his understanding was opened. The seed is the gift of the holy Spirit, the Spirit being the Energy that sows the seed or word of truth in our heart if we don’t resist it. Stiles received the seed in the form of the revelatory knowledge he received over a period of fifty days prior to his baptism in a Pentecostal church he saw in a vision. What happened to him following his baptism on October 30th, 1960 matched the image of what Pentecostal refer to as “getting the Holy Ghost,” but it is not the holy Ghost or holy Spirit one receives following baptism, as Paul teaches. Stiles referred to what happened to him that night as “getting the seed.” Those who have “The seed” are in the city, as long as the window to enter the city remains open… The 1,000 years given to man to reach a spiritual measure of 144 through God’s judgment is not to be taken literally, as it is written, “… except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.” Matthew 24:22. The trumpet has sounded. The time to ascend the mount is upon us. There is only ONE WAY to ascend the mount and enter the door that leads to the kingdom of God, which is through God’s judgment. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.” John 10:1. We will be stealing from ourselves, robbing ourselves of our highest potential, which is eternal life in the kingdom of God.

“There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.” Luke 13:28

Chapter Eleven: THE TWO KINGDOMS (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

In my Father’s house are many mansions. The word mansions means to stay (in a given place, state, relation, or expectancy) revealing their spiritual element. These mansions exist in the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of God; in the realm of the mind and the realm of the Heart. We choose the mansion in which we exist by choosing the state in which we wish our mind and heart to exist. We enter the kingdom of heaven by choosing to learn about the thoughts of our mind. It is our schoolroom, a place for learning about our self. Here we will ask questions pertaining to our life, eating of the spiritual manna, meaning what? how? where? and why? By eating of this spiritual bread from our spiritual heaven, we overcome that which is causing problems in our life.

Entering the Kingdom of Heaven: The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Matthew 4:16,17. The great light is awareness with regard to the negative and destructive thoughts of our mind, some of which are hidden in the darkness of repression. The word shadow means the darkness of error. Error is sin, and the wages of sin is death; spiritual and physical death. The word repent means to think differently, taking place in the kingdom of heaven, symbolizing the realm of the mind. We enter the kingdom of heaven through a desire to change our life, activating a process that begins with changing our thoughts, the holy spirit bringing the negative and destructive thoughts or memories, hidden in the darkness of repression, into the light; into our awareness. The land of Zabulon (Zebulun), and the land of Nephtalim (Naphtali) by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles. Matthew 4:15. It is the Gentiles that come into the light.  A spiritual Gentile is one that is open-minded; one that is willing to learn about oneself.  The land of the Gentiles begins at Zebulun and ends at Naphtali, which has to do with us becoming aware of the destructive thoughts we have become inhabited with, and then becoming aware of the erroneous beliefs that generate them. When we experience this stage of the spiritual process, we have passed over from the kingdom of heaven to the kingdom of God.

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter that the outside of them may be clean also. Matthew 23:25,26. The scribes and Pharisees were the religious peoples of Jesus’ day. The (self) righteousness of the hypocrite comes by making the outside look good. To exceed this phony external righteousness, we must clean the inside of the cup and the platter; the cup symbolizing the mind, the platter symbolizing the heart, purifying the thoughts of our mind and the emotions of our heart. We enter the kingdom of heaven through our desire to begin this life-changing purification process.

Entering the Kingdom of God: … The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here!, or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. Luke 17:20,21… The kingdom of God symbolizes the realm of the Heart.  We enter it by seeking the truth of the heart. If we only seek the righteousness of truth at the mind level, we will retain that which is keeping us from receiving what our heart truly desires. Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain… purify your hearts, ye double minded.  James 4:1,8. If we purify our mind, but not our heart, we are double minded because the heart, dwelling of the subconscious mind, will hold one thought, while the conscious mind holds another. The mind becomes an enemy of the heart, hiding its true feelings and condition. We must seek the kingdom of God, seeking to purify our hearts.

Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?   Matthew 9:14… The disciples of John and the Pharisees practiced a mind-body discipline, which was to end at the death of John the Baptist, as the Law was to end at the death of Moses. John instructed his own disciples to stop following him, and follow Jesus, saying to his disciples, “He must increase, but I must decrease.” The Spirit was now resting upon Jesus, becoming one with the word, the spirit working in conjunction with the works of the word, evoking a more powerful heart discipline… The works of repentance was over, dead, symbolized by the beheading of John. It was time to move past ephemeral mind-body disciplines and into a lasting heart discipline; moving beyond the kingdom of heaven and into the kingdom of God, where we do the works that purify our heart… For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: These are the things which defile a man… Matthew 15:19,20. When he speaketh fair, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart.  Proverbs 26:25 …

Be watchful, and strengthen [be strong about] the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.  Revelation 3:2. The word seven and perfect share the same meaning, to be complete.  What makes us complete or perfect, is the word of God, which we receive by doing the works (John 10:35-38). It is through these spiritual works that we receive the salvation of our soul, our faith complete, perfected… When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none… Man has done a good job of purifying his thoughts, but he has yet to purify his heart. His works are not yet made perfect; not yet complete, so he finds no rest. He must enter the kingdom of God, where the enemy dwells. If I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you. Matthew 12:28… Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he cast seven devils. Mark 16:9… When you become aware of the false beliefs that inhabit your heart, the kingdom of God is come unto you; you have entered the kingdom of God. You have placed your feet on holy ground, where you are to fight a holy war, driving the unholy inhabitants out of your spiritual promised land, as the children of Israel were to drive the seven inhabitants out of the literal Promised Land.

Chapter Ten: THE PASSOVER (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

The children of Israel kept the Passover as they were passing over from Egypt to the wilderness. They passed over from one place or state into another, from darkness into light, illustrated by the plague of darkness in Egypt. The Egyptians had three days of darkness, but the Israelites had light. What brings us into spiritual darkness is the absence of spiritual light; truth. There were three hours of darkness following the death of the light of the world, Jesus, as it is written, “Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.” Matthew 27:24. The three hours or days of darkness represent three thousand years of spiritual darkness. To understand what caused the death of God’s word, the light of spiritual truth, bringing spiritual darkness to mankind, we must go to the story of Jonah, who spent three days and three nights in darkness, in the belly of the fish… 

Holding the Spiritual Passover:
And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year unto you. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house. Exodus 12:3. The tenth day, like the tenth plague, is about death. The word tenth, means an accumulation, ten, to tithe, i.e. take or give a tenth. 

Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? God’s reply: In tithes and offerings. Malachi 3:8. Tithing is not about giving a tenth of your income to the Church. It’s about gathering up and sacrificing what is destroying your physical and spiritual life. When one offers carnal tithes, omitting spiritual tithing, or sacrifice, one is breaking God’s Commandment— “Thou shalt not steal.” Offering carnal tithes or sacrifices is stealing from God because what God wants is spiritual; a right spirit and a repentant and purified heart. We are to sacrifice a spiritual lamb, symbolizing our self-righteousness. A lamb for an house. We are each a house, responsible for gathering up and sacrificing our own lamb of sin. The lamb that Israel gathered up was according to their fathers, the traditions of which are vain; of no value with respect to spiritual life.  

Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:   Exodus 12:5: The lamb we gather up and put on the altar is not without blemish. The scripture is prophetic; revealing what the people of Israel would do fifteen hundred years down the road. Instead of sacrificing their own lamb of sin, they sacrificed the Lamb of God, one without blemish; without sin. He was a male of the first year, taken out from the sheep, symbolizing the Jews, and from the goats, symbolizing the Gentiles, murdered in the first year; in 1AD.  Father Abraham illustrated this sacrifice of innocence two thousand years earlier when he put his son on the altar. We have all put the spiritual son of God on the spiritual altar of our heart, sacrificing the truth of our heart through false beliefs. Abraham’s sacrifice also illustrated what should have taken place two thousand years ago, and what should be taking place now, at what is the start of the spiritual passover of the world, as Abraham ultimately sacrificed the ram, symbolizing idolatry, the worshipping of false images. It is our false religious and personal images or beliefs that we are to sacrifice, atoning for the death of truth that has taken place within us. Jesus, the spiritual Son of God the Father, died because of our sins, not in place of them, as religion teaches. Truth dies because ofour iniquities, because of our sins (Isaiah 53:5). 

Ye shall keep it up until the fourteenth day of the same month: and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it in the evening.   Exodus 12:6: The children of Israel were to keep it up, keep gathering up the lamb. But there is something more, referring to the actual Passover itself, which they were to keep observing until the fourteenth day. In God’s cycle of time, the fourteenth day was two thousand years ago. Jesus came in the fifth day; in the beginning of the fifth thousandth year: 1+2+3+4+(5) = 15. It was time to end carnal sacrificing, and commence with spiritual sacrificing. But they rejected the spiritual word of God, and the congregation of Israel, Jews and Gentiles alike, killed the Lamb of God on the evening of the fourteenth day, the days counted from evening to morning.    

And they shall take the blood and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.  Exodus 12:7: The blood symbolizes death. The two side posts symbolize the two spiritual pillars or witnesses of the heart. The upper door post is the head of the door, the head symbolizing authority. And what has had authority over man, and is to be put to death, is man’s unholy spirit and unrighteous word. Through this spiritual sacrifice we make atonement for the death of God’s spirit and word, illustrated two thousand years ago by the beheading of John the Baptist and the crucifixion of Jesus the Christ…

And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and  unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.  Exodus 12:8: The flesh that is to be utterly consumed is our false word. The flesh they were to eat of two thousand years ago was God’s word. They sacrificed the wrong flesh… To eat means to accept into our heart, through obedience. The fire symbolizes the spiritual judgment that consumes our lamb of sin. The word bread means to overcome. The word unleavened means without sin, the spiritual state we reach by overcoming the false beliefs that make up our lamb of sin. The bitter herbs symbolize the bitterness associated with the death of truth. When we put the word of truth to death, we became confused, causing us to make wrong choices in our life, the negative consequences of which have caused us to become bitter. Jesus was given gall mixed with vinegar to drink upon his death, illustrating the bitterness that results from sacrificing the truth that wants to live in our heart.

Chapter Nine: THE GREAT TRIBULATION (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

Our tribulation or time of trouble is as individual as a woman’s delivery. No two will be exactly the same.  The purpose of tribulation is to get us to let go of whatever it is that is keeping us from becoming our true selves, and manifesting our true desires. It can come in any number of ways, appearing as internal unrest, or manifesting as physical pain or disease. Our tribulation may be the result of the loss of a loved one, or the result of financial difficulty. Its intensity depends upon the degree of pressure it takes to be delivered. Some deliveries are easy, others quite difficult.  Some come with great pain, others nearly painless.

And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, everyone that shall be found written in the book.  Daniel 12:1

Our tribulation might be emotional, felt through fear, anxiety, anger, depression, loneliness, bitterness, resentment, etc. These feelings rise up to show us something is wrong. Those not prone to masking or running away from their feelings will deal with them early on. As soon as they feel troubled from within, they set out to discover why, and when they are shown, they take care of it promptly, and completely, making for a quick delivery. But those that fight against the process of spiritual birth will have a more difficult time. If the emotional pain that has been bottled up within us is not allowed to come to light and be transformed, it will move out, felt as pain in the body, or show up in the form of a cyst or tumor. It may manifest as a disorder of the mind or a disease of the body, whatever it takes for us to become introspective, to look inside of ourselves. If we ignore our spiritual healing at this time, healing the outside only, we will most likely find our infirmity returning, taking on the same form, or choosing a new form, all for the purpose of healing our emotions, the seat of the soul. 

The body’s ability to materialize the negative and destructive energy of the soul in the form of disease is a demonstration of God’s love and compassion. Cancer is sin materialized; one eating away at our physical life as the other eats away at our spiritual life. It is no coincidence that laser light is being used in the treatment of cancer, as the word laser is compared with lazar, one afflicted with disease, from Lazarus. Physical light has the power to restore the body, but the spiritual light of truth has the power to restore the body and the soul. The light of truth puts sin in remission by transforming its negative and destructive energy. Now positive energy, it moves out, healing the body by changing its chemical composition, changing the physiology of our organs, tissues, cells, etc. Disease is the result of a separation from God, a departure from God’s spiritual Law. 

…If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.  Exodus 15:26

Egypt symbolizes the World. We are the Egyptians, our diseases a result of the negative and destructive energy being stored within. The plagues of Egypt are allegorical; a tribulation or time of trouble that got the children of Israel motivated to leave behind the bondage of Egypt. It is going to take quite a bit of tribulation to motivate those that have accepted beliefs that have veiled them with the illusion of peace. Many so-called Christians claim they will not go through the tribulation, saying they have already given birth, that they are already born again, having given birth before they have experienced, and surmounted the pain that is part of the spiritual birthing process… Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child… Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once?… Isaiah 66:7,8

Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heaven shall be shaken: Matthew 24:29

…Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me…  and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?  Genesis 37:9,10

The lights of heaven symbolize the perceptions of the mind, coming through the sun, moon, and stars. The sun symbolizes our father. The moon symbolizes our mother. The stars symbolize our siblings and anyone else that influenced our thinking throughout our life. The darkening of the sun, moon, and stars is essential to the birthing process. The erroneous perceptions we received through these three sources, will be eclipsed by the light of truth as we go through God’s healing process.

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.  Revelation 2:10

The devil symbolizes error in thinking, holding us in a spiritual prison. The ten days are associated with the spiritual birthing process, as the ten centimeters reached in the physical birthing process. The death is twofold. The first is the death of the flesh formed by our word of error. The second is the death of our flesh body. When the flesh formed by our false word is removed through a spiritual death, we become pure spirit in essence. Upon our physical death, we will be born of that pure spiritual essence, born again, born from above, receiving a crown of life, symbolizing the life we inherit upon both our spiritual and physical deaths; a life of eternal joy, our reward for judging the negative aspects of the twelve tribes of Israel, or twelve sons of Jacob.

Chapter Eight: JERUSALEM (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

Jerusalem… a city, the capital of Israel, which is comprised of the old Jerusalem and the new Jerusalem. The wall of Jerusalem has twelve gates, consistent with the twelve openings on the female body. The wall of Jerusalem symbolizes our physical flesh body. Whether we are born male or female, our body, being made of a woman, is female in gender. This is the law of God, as it is written, “God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law.” Jerusalem symbolizes the Heart.  The wall of Jerusalem serves to protect the temple, as the wall that is the flesh body serves to protect the heart. The physical heart gives life to the physical body. But it is the state of the spiritual heart, our emotional state that determines our life expectancy. The ark of covenant dwells inside the inner room of the sanctuary, as the holy spirit and word of truth, male, dwells in the inner room of the mind; in the heart, female, which determines the life and form of our ethereal or spiritual body. The male is the inner being and the female is the flesh, as it is written, “male and female created he them.”

Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? But he spake of the temple of his body. John 2:19-21. It takes a little over forty weeks, 40 and 6, or40.06, to build the physical temple or body. But the temple that is to be raised on the third day, which the world entered with the new millennium, is the spiritual temple. Resurrection is of the dead. So how can the spiritual temple be raised while the physical temple or body still lives? Through a spiritual death.  To understand what must die, if not the flesh body, we must look at the spiritual meaning of the city of Jerusalem, the capital of Israel;the official seat of government.  Israel is governed by Jerusalem. The Mind is governed by the Heart. It is what dwells inside the spiritual Jerusalem that must die.

For it is written that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh… Galatians 4:22,23. There are two Jerusalems; two Mothers. The mother exemplifies protection. One mother keeps us in bondage by protecting our word of error. The other mother keeps us free by protecting our word of truth. Abraham took Hagar before Sarah, as Jacob took Leah before Rachel. Hagar and Leah symbolize the bondage of flesh. Sarah and Rachel symbolize the freedom of spirit. We must deal with our bondage in order to be free. Jacob had twelve sons, the twelve tribes of Israel, which the twelve gates in the wall of Jerusalem, represent. The number twelve represents judgment, and judging the negative aspects of the ten sons by Leah and the bondwomen, symbolizing flesh and bondage, formulates to 12×10, which equals an hundred and twenty (120 ). And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty.  Genesis 6:3. And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died…  Deuteronomy 34:7. The flesh formed by our word of error, which keeps us in bondage, dies at an hundred and twenty by overcoming the negative aspects of the first ten sons of Jacob. Moses symbolizes the Spirit of God, but the backside of the spirit is the law, as it is written, “And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts.” Exodus 33:23. The children of Israel would see the law, which they brought upon themselves by resisting the Spirit, which they illustrated by resisting Moses.

Jerusalem was destroyed in 70AD, as it is written, “seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.” Daniel 9:2.  The word seven means to be complete. An indefinite number, the destruction of our spiritual Jerusalem of bondage complete when we overcome the ten sons, which formulates to 7 x 10, which equals seventy. Even the wall of Jerusalem, our physical body, is given seventy years. Any extended time is called grace. If our sin remains, so too will the spiritual flesh it forms inside of our physical flesh, so that when our final circumcision takes place at our physical death, removing the foreskin that is our flesh body, we will find ourselves wrapped in this sinful flesh, seeing ourselves as naked in the spiritual realm. And the Lord called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself. And he said, Who told thee that thou was naked: Has thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?  Genesis 3:9-11… I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear… Revelation 3:18. The gold tried in the fire symbolizes purification through the spiritual judgment (Matthew 19:28), which removes this sinful flesh. The white raiment symbolizes the word of truth, the spiritual wedding garment one is clothed with through this purification process. We must enter that spiritual temple called the heart, and drive out its unholy inhabitants. This spiritual eviction process is the desolation of our Jerusalem of bondage. The word Jerusalem means founded peaceful, but what kind of peace has man been seeking, and protecting?

And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled. Revelation 15:8. No man can enter the temple, symbolizing the heart, until the last plague is fulfilled from within. The seventh plague is hail, meaning to lower (as into a void), bringing down the wall of our old Jerusalem of bondage so that we can see into our heart… Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace… ; and one built up a wall, and lo, others daubed it with untempered mortar: Say unto them which daubed it with untempered morter, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower: and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall… Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered morter, and will say unto you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it; To wit, the prophets of Israel which prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord God.  Ezekiel 13:10-16. There is no peace in the city of Jerusalem because there is no peace in the Heart of man. There are only visions of peace; an illusion of peace generated through the deception of a mind that has yet to connect with the heart.  The war in the Middle East is evidence that man has not obtained peace in his heart. There is still a conflict that has yet to be resolved; the external revealing the internal, the physical revealing the spiritual… Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together: For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. Peace be within the wall, and prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companion’s sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee. Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.  Psalms 122:3,5-8

Chapter Seven: BABYLON (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

The word Babylon means confusion, a derivative of the word Babel.  We enter this world in accordance with God’s Creation, filled with God’s spirit of love and His word of truth. But in the process of time, we separate ourselves from this pure spiritual essence, building a spiritual tower of Babel, brick by brick, lie by lie, the carnal mind carrying us away into Babylon; into confusion… The great religious image that has brought so much confusion was headed by the Catholic Church, the MotherChurch… 

Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible. This image’s head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.  Daniel 2:31-35

The head of gold symbolizes the doctrine of the Catholic Church. The breasts and arms of silver symbolize the doctrine of Trinity.  The belly and thighs of brass symbolize the doctrine of Pentecost. The legs of iron symbolize the political power that gives strength to the religious image. The feet, part iron and part clay, symbolizes the mixing of politics and religion. This was the image seen by the king of Babylon, which translates to the spirit of confusion.

Thou, O king, art a king of kings; for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power; and strength, and glory… thou art this head of gold.  Daniel 2:37,38

And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.   Revelation 17:5

And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.  Daniel 2:39. The second kingdom, inferior in power to the Catholic Church, is Trinity. But it is the third kingdom, Pentecost, whose spirit of anger and oppression will bear rule over all the earth.  The first two kingdoms make up Israel, symbolizing the Mind, the gold and silver revealing the spirits that are ruling the mind. The word gold means yellow, symbolizing doubt, yellow being the slang word for cowardly. The word silver means to become pale, fear. Doubt and fear are ruling the mind. But it is the third kingdom of Judah, symbolizing the realm of the Heart, that is our real concern. The negative and destructive spirit ruling the heart is of brass, which means the red color of the throat of a serpent when hissing.  The color red, in this context, symbolizes danger, the hissing serpent symbolizing the anger that brings with it great oppression, a threatening spirit that will bear rule over the whole earth. 

And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.  Daniel 2:40… After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. Daniel 7:7. The fourth kingdom is synonymous with the fourth beast, which is diverse in that it is political; dreadful, terrible, and strong. The ten horns, like the ten toes, symbolize ten political kingdoms or nations that give their power to the beastly religious image. 

And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces. Genesis 15:17. The furnace symbolizes the spiritual judgment that will consume our beastly sacrifice, the lamp symbolizing the light of truth that exposes the heifer, the she-goat, and the ram. 

And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell:.. Revelation 16:19. The great city is Babylon. The word city means to have your eyes opened, and what we are to have our eyes opened to is our own confusion. To bring down Babylon, we must divide the heifer. The word heifer goes back to the root word meaning to revolve, circular, as the children of Israel went around in circles in the wilderness, symbolizing the patterns we keep repeating. We will break these cycles when we divide the she-goat. The word she-goat means, to be stout, or stubborn, a characteristic of the astrological goat. It is stubbornness that keeps us going around and around in these same old habits. Stubbornness, which boils down to fear and doubt or lack of trust, keeps us from getting to the truth, which frees us from the beliefs that cause us to repeat the same mistakes. Truth divides the ram. The word ram means strength, in the negative sense. The ram symbolizes idolatry, the worshipping of false images. We have been using the power of our false religious and self-images or beliefs to fight against the truth.

Chapter Six: ZION (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

Out of Israel came Judah, and out of Judah came Zion. This would be as true among the Gentiles as it was for the Jews. This is where I come in. I had come home to work during my summer break from college. It was 1975, I was twenty-three, and having the time of my life, so I was not prepared for what was about to happen. Having landed a job in the Florida Keys as a housemother for troubled boys, I was paired with a housefather, who loved to talk about God, rekindling my interest. On one of my days off, on my way home to visit my family two hours north, I did a favor for my co-worker.  He had asked me to drop off his guitar, which needed some work, so I obliged, having no idea that it would change my life, forever. As I walked into this building on the outskirts of my hometown, I noticed a scripture posted on the wall: Acts 2:38. And on the desk, a very big book, which piqued my curiosity…It turned out to be a book of Bible words, a number given for each word. Clueless, I closed the book… 

This man, whom I consider to be a true man of God, began his odyssey in 1960. And like me, he had no previous teachings on the Bible. In fact, from a beginner’s standpoint, he knew less than I did. He once told me that when he read the first four books of the New Testament, he broke down and cried after each book. He thought Jesus kept coming back, and they kept killing him, not aware that it was the same story being told by different men. This was a pure vessel, his mind a clean slate, quiet, having no preconceived ideas about God’s Word. It was in 1960 that he received a picture in his mind of a nearby church, where he was instructed to go and be baptized. It was a Pentecostal Church; Judah of the Gentiles, where he received the name through water baptism following fifty days of prayer, in which he heard things like “the seed, the seed, the seed.” Frustrated, he would cry out, “Lord, what about the seed?” And with that question, the information started pouring in. What he heard he wrote down, papers I recall seeing some years after we met. He had gone through a period of repentance in those fifty days, and was baptized in the name of Jesus in accordance with Acts 2:38, in the church called out to bear the name. What happened to him that night in the church was readily accepted, mirroring their image of what they call “getting the Holy Ghost,” only this was not a mockery. This display was for the congregation, as the gift of the Holy Spirit had already been received in the form of truth he received over those fifty days. When he spoke in tongues, two in the congregation received the interpretation, after which time he was asked to teach from the pulpit. But what he taught did not support their beliefs. He was speaking things they did not understand, a new language, and it wasn’t long before he and his teachings were angrily rejected. 

The man of God spent the next fourteen years alone, being taught. Fifteen years from the time this man experienced a connection with the spirit of truth, which began in 1960, a new people was gathered together. Pentecost was given fifteen years in which to accept this truth, before being cut off in 1975. And what is quite interesting, is that during those fifteen years, a religious Jew named Yehuda, Hebrew for Judah, stayed in contact with this man of God. Judah of the Gentiles and Judah of Judaism were both privy to the spirit of truth teachings…

Israel, who became Judah at the crossing of the Jordan, was also given a period of fifteen; fifteen hundred years in which to assimilate this ancient spiritual truth, illustrated by their eating of the old corn in the land of Canaan, which replaced the manna, symbolizing the carnal law.  But fifteen hundred years later, when the spiritual word of God returned to take them out from the law, which they went back under through their disobedience in the Promised Land, they rejected it, wasting the holy seed, illustrated by Onan, the second son of Judah, who spilled the seed upon the ground. God then chose a new people, open-minded pagans, Gentiles, who understood the spiritual, drinking of the new wine and speaking with new tongues. When God’s people stagnate by slipping back into a carnal way of thinking, a strong dose of God’s spirit and word appears to move them forward into a spiritual way of thinking. If they reject it, there will be a new people prepared to take their place. God’s kingdom is always moving; moving us into a deeper spiritual understanding, which if applied through action, brings us back to our place of origin… 

Judah, Pentecost, never brought forth fruit unto God, so the name was taken away from them and given to a new people, to Zion. This Zion, gathered together in the carnal era of Isaac, went through a carnal baptism, taking on the carnal name, while Judah became as backsliding Israel, without a name, and having been married to God through a spiritual intercourse, was given a bill of divorce. This occurred in 1975, when the man of God heard the word, Ichabod...  The word Ichabod means there is no glory. This is the story of Ichabod: Now the sons of Eli were the sons of Belial; they knew not the Lord… Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord: for men abhorred the offering of the Lord. 1 Samuel 2:12,17. The word Belial means without profit, worthlessness, destruction, wickedness, evil, naughty, ungodly men. These two men, who did evil by robbing God with respect to sacrifices, represent the Gentile Israel and Judah, who were cut off in one day, in 1975. 

To be of Zion we must first realize that we are Judah, which takes place when we realize that we only thought we were serving God, or thought we were doing the right thing.  But now we realize it was just a pretense. We begin to see that the way we are thinking and managing our life is no longer working for us, that it is only bringing us more problems. We are ready for change. In this humbled state, we make our way down to a symbolic Jordan. Here we begin the process of being stripped, our secret parts exposed through awareness of our false perceptions and beliefs. When we are ready to deal with the reality of our life, we become a daughter of Zion, building upon an awareness of our true condition, which we will change through works. The word Zion goes to the unused root meaning to parch, aridity, a desert, barren, solitary place, wilderness. It is a solitary place because we are the only ones that can change the way we think and feel, and what we believe. Each of us must do our own spiritual works, becoming a barren wilderness by drying up to our old way of thinking, and by sacrificing the destructive beliefs born of painful emotions. To be a spiritual daughter of Zion takes work, but it is worth it!

Chapter Five: JUDAH OF THE GENTILES (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

Israel and Judah, two groups of people, represented among the Jewish and Gentile nations. Israel of the Gentiles refers to two of these religious factions, Catholic and Trinity. Now we will identify the religious group that falls under the category of Judah of the Gentiles. Judah was the tribe separated out for David’s sake, for the sake of the spiritual kingdom of God. Israel symbolizes the Mind, which ruled by the unholy spirit of fear has caused her to buy into lies, while Judah symbolizes the Heart. What comes out of Judah reveals what proceeds out of the heart, be it holy or unholy, good or evil. John and Jesus, embodying the Spirit and Word of God, came out of the tribe of Judah, revealing the positive attributes of the Heart; love and truth. The beheading of John the Baptist and crucifixion of Jesus the Christ illustrate what has taken place in the heart of man, the holy spirit of love and word of truth usurped by the unholy spirit of fear and word of lies. Spirit and Word, the two witnesses of the heart, appearing in physical form two thousand years ago in the era of Isaac; in the era of mockery. 

You will often find Judah and Jerusalem in connection with one another because they represent the name and the mother who bears the name… God called a man forth from the tribe of Judah to announce His name to the world, the name of the Father carried down through the son, as Jesus said, “I am come in my Father’s name.”… But they rejected Jesus as Messiah, rejecting God’s holy name, rejecting His spiritual word or holy seed, that once conceived of in the heart brings salvation to the soul, healing the soul… Israel of the Gentiles rejected the name when they accepted a baptism based on a lie, but out of this Gentile Israel God called forth a new people that would restore baptism in the name of Jesus. This people, who received the name through water baptism, were called Pentecostals, and their church, once organized, was called The United Pentecostal Church or UPC. This is Judah of the Gentiles. 

As we leave the physical era of Isaac, and enter the spiritual era of Jacob, which coincides with the new millennium, we leave behind physical baptism. Baptism is now to take place spiritually in a symbolic Jordan. We get down to this Jordan by humbling ourselves to the new spiritual era. By letting go of the literal and taking hold of the spiritual. The word Jordan means to descend, to go downwards, or conventionally to a lower region, which the tribe of Judah illustrated by separating from the tribes of Israel, becoming the kingdom of the south, situated geographically downward, in a lower region, from Israel. Judah of the Gentiles, Pentecostals, separated themselves from Israel of the Gentiles when it came to baptism. By humbling themselves to the true water baptism, this Gentile Judah symbolically entered the Jordan, being physically baptized into the physical name in the physical era of Isaac. Judah of the Gentiles brought the name up to Jerusalem symbolically through baptism in the name of Jesus. The reign of Judah, Pentecostals, began in 1905 and ended in 1975, seventy years [Daniel 9:24], tying in with the seventy weeks. They, as the Jews of Judea, were given seventy years to bring in righteousness through the assimilation of truth, finishing their transgression and ending their sin or iniquity. Jews and Christians have both failed to obey the spiritual word of God. The veil of religious iniquity remains, holding up God’s holy seed, and polluting His holy name. The Jews failure to assimilate spiritual truth through spiritual obedience to God’s spiritual law was manifested in the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem in 70AD.  

The iniquity that caused Judah of the Gentiles to mock God’s Word had to do with the promise of what they would receive following their baptism, this Pentecostal iniquity spreading like a fire gone out of control. When the iniquity of the mind is not overcome through the conception of truth in the heart, it forms into a false belief. Judah of the Gentiles took the iniquity to the next level, from a thought of the mind to a belief of the heart. Judah failed to drive the inhabitants out of the Promised Land, as Judah of the Gentiles failed to drive the unholy spirits and false beliefs out of that spiritual promised land called the heart…  All the false religious images formed from God’s Word over the past two thousand years, makes up the heavy yoke of bondage the religious peoples of the world serve under. This spiritual bondage is symbolized by the physical bondage the children served under in Egypt. The heavy yoke symbolizes the oppression that comes with accepting these false religious beliefs in the heart, so many carnal interpretations being assigned to spiritual truth. Some give reverence to a God on earth they call Father, when Jesus said, “Call no man your father upon the earth”… Some look to the clouds for the return of Jesus, believing in a rapture that will take them out of the “time of trouble” that is already upon the earth. All of this religious iniquity, causing so much confusion, and adding to the spiritual flood of evilness that comes with putting our trust in these man-made images; in these false gods.

The oppression of Rehoboam, the king of Judah, symbolizing the spirit of the Heart, exists in us all, and the ruler we have vested with absolute power is our fearful, angrily-controlled, selves. The spirit of the heart is anger, which leads to oppression, and has many of us beating our flesh into subjection, working and exercising our bodies to exhaustion in support of some false image, which we worship in exchange for a false sense of empowerment. This is not the authentic power of the heart, which the spirit of fear and humiliation stripped us of long ago, but a spurious power that brings false peace of mind. Our children suffer oppression and violence, starving their bodies and cutting their flesh, witnessing to the internal anger and pain of their heart. We fear that what we eat and drink will pollute our bodies, when Jesus makes it perfectly clear that it is not what enters our body that defiles us, but what proceeds out of our heart; the unholy spirit of anger, which works with the unholy spirit of control that feeds off the unholy fear of our mind. The word Rehoboam means a people will enlarge. It was the tribe of Judah that enlarged among all the tribes, as it is the doctrine of Pentecost, Judah of the Gentiles that has enlarged, being accepted by the majority of mainstream Christians. Proclaiming out of the spirit of impatience that they are born again and saved, Israel and Judah have finally become one, but not for the good. 

As the world leaves the era of Isaac, which is associated with Judah, and enters the era of Jacob, which is associated with Zion, it is time to leave behind the mockery of God’s Word. This is done by replacing the carnal interpretations assigned to scripture over millennia through the man-made doctrines of religion, with spiritual interpretation, thereby restoring the spiritual teachings of Jesus. It is time to rend the spiritual kingdom of God out of the hand of its oppressors, which have absconded with its spiritual truths. Whether she is a false religious image that has spread throughout the earth, or a false self-image that has permeated our heart, Judah has enlarged her borders, her spirit enlarging to include fear, anger, control, and impatience. These are the four earthly spirits; the four beasts or living ones that stand before the throne, symbolizing the heart, preventing us from living our authentic lives. Judah’s spirit of impatience, which grows stronger and stronger with each generation, is keeping us in spiritual and physical debt as we continue to demand immediate spiritual and physical gratification. It’s a spirit that is causing great mental, emotional, and physical oppression, oppressing the soul.

Chapter Four: ISRAEL OF THE GENTILES (excerpts)

/ Sandra L. Butler

When the spiritual word of God returned two thousand years ago, it was rejected by the People of Israel, so His spiritual truth was given to a new people, the pagans, whose practices included the worshipping of molten images, likened to Israel’s worshipping of the gold calf in the wilderness. These pagans were open-minded; open to the spiritual word of God, and came to be called Gentiles.  But it would not be long before they too would reject it, returning to their worshipping of false images. They, along with the Jews, the People of Israel, came against the word of God, coming against spiritual truth [Acts 4:26,27].

Those deeply rooted in the carnal-minded doctrines of religion will show contempt for the spiritual word of God, reflected in their anger, which destroyed the embodiment of spiritual truth two thousand years ago. Anger is born out of fear, and this unholy spirit of fear is what prevents one from letting go of these images or beliefs. But there will be more and more, who upon hearing spiritual truth, within or without, will stop buying the merchandise of the beastly religious image. It will be our love of truth, not our need to be right, that will end the reverence we show toward these erroneous beliefs, whose only power comes through the fear and lies they perpetuate. No longer placing value on this merchandise of false religious beliefs, the merchants within and without will be out of business, for good! … The Gentiles of two thousand years ago had left behind the graven images by hearing the word of God spoken through Jesus, as the children of Israel heard the voice of God through Samuel. But having a propensity for images, they would choose a king, as Israel chose Saul, who would form an image out of God’s word through carnal interpretations, which this Gentile Israel believed, being led to believe in the Son, as opposed to obeying the spiritual works of the Father (John 10:32-38). With the return of spiritual truth comes an opportunity to stop worshipping the false religious beliefs of today.

Israel demands a King:
“Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the Lord. And the Lord said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them… This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots. And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear the ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots. And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest men, and your asses, and put them to his work. He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants. And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye have chosen you; and the Lord will not hear you in that day. Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us; That we may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles. 1 Samuel 8:6-20. If you take these words and convert them into modern day terms, you can easily make the connection to the church, and how it operates. For example, the sheep symbolize the flock or congregation. To take the tenth of the sheep is requiring them to pay ten percent of their income to the Church.

Israel wanted a king to judge them, and fight their battles for them, just as people want their religious leaders to decide what is right and wrong, so they don’t have to battle with these decisions themselves. We have long since forgotten how to trust in, and take direction from, our internal anointing, which guides us into the light of truth through the power of our holy spirit. We prefer to have the unholy spirit of fear rule our mind and tell us lies, then to allow the holy spirit of our heart to bring us the truth that will result in a spiritual and physical freedom that seems to petrify us… Saul was the king that ruled over Israel of Judaism, but he also represents a spirit that rules over Israel of the Gentiles. With a new Israel, came a new Saul. The name has changed, but the spirit is one and the same. Paul, referred to as Apostle to the Gentiles, was not chosen to be among the twelve so that we may see that there are two foundations that have been laid. One foundation has twelve pillars, represented by the twelve apostles, the foundation upon which the holy city of Jerusalem is built. The other foundation has one pillar, represented by the one apostle, Paul, upon which the city of Babylon is built. Paul laid his foundation through the words he spoke, mixing carnal law with spiritual truth; mixing milk with meat, which is unlawful. It is the cause of all the confusion and dissension among Christians today.

We learn from the Dead Sea Scrolls that Paul was a liar, which is how both Jews, who kept the carnal law, and spiritual Christians, who obeyed the spiritual works, would have viewed him… Israel of Judaism chose Saul because they wanted someone to judge them and fight their battles for them. Israel of the Gentiles chose Paul for the same reason. Most Christian doctrines lean solely on the teachings of Paul, the religious institutions operating through a set of by-laws, which the people willingly choose to obey. They pay their tithes, hiring someone to tell them what to believe, a belief that keeps them from fighting the ongoing internal battle between their own mind and heart, which can only be won through an internal anointing, through which they would gain the spiritual strength they need to be delivered, made free of their spiritual and physical bondages. The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?  Jeremiah 5:31. But many are still allowing someone, or something, to do their thinking for them, and then they judge themselves according to that wrong way of thinking, leaving the righteous judgment undone. If they would shut out the incessant fear and noise that governs their mind through these man-made dogmas, they would activate the holy spirit of their heart, which would bring them into the truth of what they need to judge in themselves… When the word of truth dominates the heart, so too does the spirit of love, the good spirit and word driving the evil spirits and word out of the heart. This purified state makes us a spiritual virgin, and as it is written, “a virgin shall conceive and bear a son” (Isaiah 7:14), the son symbolizing the complete development or maturation of the soul through the highest degree of conception of truth in that spiritual womb called the heart.
