Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 4:5
4:5 And from the throne proceeded lightnings, thunderings, and voices. Seven lamps of firewere burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

The seven burning lamps of fire before the throne are the same as the seven lamps of Golden Candlestick or Holy Spirit with the seven manifestations.

Acts 2:1-4
2:1 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2:2 And suddenly there came
a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
2:3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of
fire, and one sat upon each of them.
2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

What was seen by John the apostle is the same as what was seen by the apostles at the upper room in Jerusalem, namely the power of Holy Spirit that is poured out for all of us.

Holy Spirit dominates the five senses of men. Why? It happens because sin dominated the five senses of men (Genesis 3:1-24), so they lost the glory of the Lord or the image of the trinity of God, became naked, and lived in the atmosphere of curse up to everlasting perdition.
Through Pentecost, the Lord pours out Holy Spirit to dominate the five senses of men, so they may return to the glory of the Lord or the image of the trinity of God. They can return to paradise; even enter the New Jerusalem or the everlasting heavenly kingdom.

The process of the fall of and lifting up for men through the five senses are as follows.

  1. The earsare dominated by sin.
    Genesis 3:1
    3:1 Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?"

    The fall of men happened because the ears willingly heard the voice of the serpent, namely the false teachings and gossips. Consequently, questions come. It means there is a doubt to the voice of God or the true teaching Word until one leaves it.

    Luke 8:18
    8:18 "Therefore take heed how you hear. For whoever has, to him more will be given; and whoever does not have, even what he seems to have will be taken from him."

    Acts 2:2
    2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.

    The ears must be anointed by Holy Spirit, so one can be firm to hear the voice from heaven, namely the true teaching Word. He can also be firm to reject the false teachings and gossips. It means that he does not give any opportunity to hear the other voices. We can hear the true teaching Word seriously, understand and believe in it or it becomes faith in heart, and we can obey it. As a result, the faith grows to be firm and perfect. Hearing the other teachings, the faith will be taken away.

  2. Mouthtalks about the Word falsely, namely by adding and taking away the Word according to the flesh desire.
    Genesis 3:2-3
    3:2And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden;
    3:3 "but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, 'You shall not eat it, nor shall you
    touchit, lest you die.' "

    Genesis 2:16-17
    2:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freelyeat;
    2:17 "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."


    Numbers 13:27-28,32
    13:27 Then they told him, and said: "We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit.
    13:28 "Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there.
    13:32 And they gave the children of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, "The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature.

    The Word which is added with the voice of the flesh is the same as a bad report which weakens the faith until one departs from faith and perishes forever.

    1 Timothy 6:20
    6:20 O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblingsand contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge--

    The Word or the Good News and Bride Tidings will be the profane and idle babblings is it s added with knowledge. It will cause debate and discussion. There is no sanctification, but one adds the sin, turns from faith, and falls from faith until perishes forever.

    Galatians 4:13-16
    4:13 You know that because of physical infirmity I preached the gospel to you at the first.
    4:14 And my trial which was in my flesh you did not despise or reject, but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
    4:15 What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me.
    4:16
    Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

    Paul dared to preach the true teaching Word although he would be the enemy of others.
    The words which are anointed by Holy Spirit will dare to preach the true teaching Word although one must fight against the husband, wife, children, parents, parents-in law, or siblings.

    Acts 2:4
    2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

    Be careful because the ones who make the true teaching Word as their enemy are those who formerly received it seriously, but then they added and took it away and transgressed it or fell in sin.

    If the ears and mouth are good, all things will be good. On the contrary, all things will be destroyed if the ears and mouth are not good.

  3. Eyes.
    Genesis 3:6
    3:6 So when the woman sawthat the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.

    If the mouth adds and takes away the Word, the eyes will look at the things which are comfortable to the flesh although they are not in line with the true teaching Word or God forbids them. Be careful because the fleshly sight always deceives.

    Genesis 13:9-10, 13
    13:9 "Is not the whole land before you? Please separate from me. If you take the left, then I will go to the right; or, if you go to the right, then I will go to the left."
    13:10 And Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar.
    13:13 But the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinful against the LORD.


    The fleshly sight means as follows.

    • One does not know about giving thanks.

    • Seeing Sodom and Gomorrah, namely the fire and brimstone, as the garden of the Lord. It means that one willingly sacrifices the spiritual things, even the heavenly kingdom, to get the physical ones.

    Acts 2:3
    2:3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them.

    Genesis 13:14-15,17-18
    13:14 And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: "Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are -- northward, southward, eastward, and westward;
    13:15 "for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever.
    13:17 "Arise, walk in the land through its length and its width, for I give it to you."
    13:18 Then Abram moved his tent, and went and dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.

    If our eyes are dominated by Holy Spirit, we have the sight of the cross, namely the one according to the true teaching Word. It will end in Canaan although it torments our flesh now.

  4. Nose.
    Genesis 3:4-6
    3:4 Then the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die.
    3:5 "For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and
    you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
    3:6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.


    If one has the fleshly sight, he will also have the fleshly nose, namely he wants to be the same as God by the fleshly desires, ambition, and ways.

    Acts 2:5-11
    2:5 And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.
    2:6 And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language.
    2:7 Then they were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, "Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?
    2:8 "And how is it that we hear, each in our own language in which we were born?
    2:9 "Parthians and Medes and Elamites, those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
    2:10 "Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
    2:11 "Cretans and Arabs--we hear them speaking in our own tongues the wonderful works of God."

    The true nose is anointed by Holy Spirit, namely we worship God many more to be the same as Him. Start everything with worshiping God so that there is a clear direction.

    Genesis 3:6
    3:6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruitand ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.

    If the four senses have been dominated by sin, the hand must take the forbidden fruit, namely sinning up to the peak or the sin concerning eating-drinking and marrying-being given in marriage. Consequently, one becomes naked and lives in the atmosphere of curse. For example, Absalom was great, but perished because of his disobedience.

    We must pay the price or sacrifice to be obedient, but there will be the glory of God behind it. The price we pay will be more expensive if we are not obedient, up to the everlasting perdition.

  5. Cheek or skin.
    Genesis 3:7, 10
    3:7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.
    3:10 So he said, "I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was
    afraidbecause I was naked; and I hid myself."

    The feeling is dominated by sin, so one becomes fearful and ashamed or there is no peace. If it continues he will not be ashamed again and his life is in the atmosphere of curses, heavy burden, and spiritual dryness up to the everlasting perdition in the hell.

    Genesis 3:21
    3:21 Also for Adam and his wife the LORD God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.

    The way God helps is through the offering of reconciliation. The kind of the animal which was sacrificed in garden Eden is not mentioned or it is not clear. Moreover, it is only for two people. It gives us a lesson that marriage must be reconciled. The kind of the animal which was sacrificed on the days of the Law is clear, but only for one nation, namely Israel.

    Romans 3:23-25
    3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
    3:24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
    3:25 whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,


    In the New Testament, the offerings of reconciliation have been fulfilled by the sacrifice of Christ on the cross. It is for all nations in the world, including the Gentiles.
    As for us, the process to receive the offerings of reconciliation is making peace with God and others. We confess our sins as honest as possible to God and others. As a result, the blood of Jesus forgives our sins and covers our nakedness. It is the same as Jesus drinks the sour wine mingled with gall to give us the new wine, namely Holy Spirit who dominates our five senses. The proof is we can return to the image of God, namely we can be obedient.

    Romans 8:15
    8:15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."

    We only cry out "Abba, Father!" Being obedient is the same as lifting up our two hands to God. As a result, God will stretch out His hand of great grace as follows.

    • Jehovah Jireh creates the things which do not exist yet. Moreover, the bride of heaven is provided.
      Genesis 22:9-14
      22:9 Then they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.
      22:10 And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.
      22:11 But the Angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" So he said, "Here I am."
      22:12 And He said, "Do not lay your hand on the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me."
      22:13 Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son.
      22:14 And Abraham called the name of the place, The-LORD-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, "
      In the Mount of The LORD it shall be provided."

      Revelation 19:7
      19:7"Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready."


    • The hand of God's great grace is able to solve all problemsright in His time.
      Exodus 14:16, 21
      14:16 "But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
      14:21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, and the waters were divided.


    • The hand of God's great grace lifts us upfrom failure, uses us in the building of Christ's body, perfects us, and lifts us up on the glorious clouds until we can sit on the throne of the heavenly kingdom forever.
      John 21:18-19
      21:18 "Most assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish."
      21:19 This He spoke, signifying by what death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, "Follow Me."


God blesses you.
