Horus was not King Solomon, but you can see how by your question, that over thousands of years, ancient symbols or archetypes like Horus came to be assigned new identities by men as history unfolded.

This is what I think.

hehe sorry, trick question. Horus would have better been described in the time of moses. But thank you for your patience.

This is what I think. All things that make up the universe are self sustaining for good periods of time and very reproductive. Therefore energy is passed from things as dense as the sun or even a brighter star then the sun, to its habitable places in the universe and all places are habitable because if they were inhabitable, life itself would cease to exist.

Sounds good to me. They just announced yesterday that Titan had a liquid water ocean under its skin somewhere. There is life there. Life is everywhere, we have but to see it for ourselves.

Know the excluded middle.

Romans 9

6 It is not as though God’s word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. 7 Nor because they are his descendants are they all Abraham’s children. On the contrary, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.” 8 In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham’s offspring. 9 For this was how the promise was stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”

10 Not only that, but Rebekah’s children were conceived at the same time by our father Isaac. 11 Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad —in order that God’s purpose in election might stand: 12 not by works but by him who calls—she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” 13 Just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

Jacob is the child of promise. The Bible is the thread of truth that points to the true Jesus. There is a counterfeit Jesus that is copied in every way. Esau represents this side. Why does Horus/Osiris/Isis mirror Jesus? Simple.

Nimrod built the tower of Babel. Nimrod was the founder of the Mystery School of Paganism. Babylon is Mystery Babylon. It represents the Pagans that work against God. Satan has his followers. On the other side, we have Jacob and the Biblical narrative. Why do they mirror each other?

Again, the simple answer provides the excluded middle. What happened at Babel? Osiris/Nimrod was cut into pieces and crucified in Egypt. Egypt is symbolically Sodom/Babylon. What part of Osiris was not found? The phallic region. This represents the circumcision of sin as a demonstration to the elect of God on the other side. Who crucified Jesus? Satan. What symbol did Satan use to crucify Jesus? The Pagan cross. What did God do with the Pagan Cross? Again, he uses the other side to demonstrate His love for the Elect.

Why the different stories that seem to match? Again, what happened at Babel? Osiris/Nimrod represents Babylon being cut into languages. Nimrod is now Osiris and many others. The ONE story from the Bible was cut into pieces. What is the holy grail? Bringing the pieces back together again from the various nations from the symbols where it is locked. How can you find the real story? Consult the Bible.

Truth will set you free. There is one God; one word; one Jesus. All the others are Pagan copies.

One more time. There is one story. There are many divisions of the same story that were Paganized when God confounded the language. Where do we look to see the story unfold as our example of what not to do?

Who built the tower of Babel? The original builders (Masons). Who is trying to rebuild the tower today? The Masons. What did Jesus have to say about it?

The temple of the external is the material world. This is the false temple. The temple of the heart is the rock on which the church was built. Who is that Rock?

We can eliminate Peter

Matthew 16:18
18And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter (Petros), and upon this rock (Petra) I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Petros is the stone that is small and can be moved. Jesus said that the church would be built on Petra. Who is Petra, the stone that cannot be moved. The chief cornerstone. That's Christ. He is the stone that the Builders reject.

Luke 20:17

Jesus looked directly at them and asked, "Then what is the meaning of that which is written: "'The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone'?

He was quoting David from Psalm 118:22

One more point: Isaiah 14, where we get Lucifer as the king that fell, was a mistranslation of a Hebrew word. The Latin word Lucifer was used, but the meaning is a bright and shining king that fell. Jesus did not fall. He is the true Bright and Morning Star that rises in our hearts. The fallen king is trying to rise in the material world. The builders are assisting.

Now, for the most important point. Who is Nimrod and the Builders? They are Mystery (School) Babylon (Sodom).

Revelation 11

7 Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them. 8 Their bodies will lie in the public square of the great city —which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where also their Lord was crucified.

Who's Lord was crucified in Egypt? The builder's. By "Their Lord," it is referring to Babylon. The witnesses testify against Nimrod. Jesus was crucified in Israel.

Horus will rise, only to fall by the appearance of Jesus. The city on seven hills (Babylon/Peter) will be destroyed.

The story of the Tower of Babel is the story of the destruction of the Saturnian system. All of your gods are symbols, with real meanings.

What happened at Babel, the SIMPLE answer is that Nimrod/Osiris was cut into pieces and crucified? That's the simple interpretation??

The simple answer is a main moon of Saturn, "Babel" or "Babylon" if you will, inhabitated by humans, was cut into pieces. Maybe not the simplest but it makes sense. Mystic Gods does not.

Actually, Mary is associated with Venus, and so is also The Morning Star. It is called The Morning Star because it is the shiniest in the early sky - it is Venus.

So

Jesus - Venus
Lucifer - Venus
Mary - Venus

God / Ra / Yah is The Sun, that part is correct.


The Sun Worship - Ra / Yah is a symbol of masculine energy.

The masculine energy gives and The feminine energy takes - Which is Why The Sun is associated with The Masculine and The Moon which receives The Energy / Light From The Sun and reflects it is associated with The Feminine.

Isis is associated with with "Sopdet" (in English - The Star Sirius).
Satan or Set is actually associated with the planet Saturn.

Phosp’HORUS’ is actually, Ph-O-S-Ph-O-R-U-S.

PH is actually one sound (one letter in its original language) so you can't just break it into an "H-O-R-U-S".

Also, you aren't supposed to do the numerology in English. If people were speaking an ancient language saying that they are leaving clues, then the clues would be in their language, not in a language which didn't even exist yet (English).

i think lucifer has to do with,,, human thought or intellect,,,,,,,, which can be used in any which way,,,, for good or for bad,,,,, but the building and storing of information in the mind,,,.,., it is mans mind which has brought him above the other animals,,.,.,.

also maybe lucifer can be a term relating to enlightenment,,,,, to see all things clearly in their true light,,,,,

if someone has a genius intellect,, a mind which can clearly see reality,, and make connections and innovations,,, they can trick people and crave power and get off by belittling others,,,,,, or they can use their mind to better themselves and others......

throughout history there have been men who have been satisfied with doing their work for society and raising their family and enjoying their days,,,,,,

being a member of a conspiracy site,,, we are privy to the truth that through history,,, there have also been men who have stopped at nothing to gain ever increasing quantities of power, wealth, and control.... for what? to enjoy their time....

Yup, Lucifer means "The Light Bearer". Lux (from lucis - Lucifer) means light. illume means "light up" or "illuminate".

Illumination means "enlightenment", illuminate means "become enlightened", illuminati means "enlightened ones"

all relating to the word "Lux" light and Lucifer.

As a Christian mystic I find this thread interesting. Have any of you read Aion? Great book.

"Aion was originally published in German in 1951. The central theme of the work he set felt forced to write, the book he notes that "he set it all down in" and was able to speak his "secret language" contained the broadest scope of anything he had ever written. Its time line was the entire Christian aeon of two thousand years from the birth of Christ to the year 2,000 and the second millennium.

In the Forward to Aion, Jung tells us that the theme of the book is the change of the psychic situation in the Christian aeon which coincides with the astrological conception of the Platonic month of the fishes or Pisces. Those familiar with astrology may recognize that the notion of the Platonic month is based on the astronomical procession of the equinoxes. The movement of the sun through each zodiacal sign is called the Platonic month. In the spring equinox of around 1 A.D., the beginning of the Christian aeon, the equinox left the sign of Aries and started into the sign of Pisces. Now, 2,000 years later, it is about to leave the sign of Pisces and enter that of Aquarius.

Aion is about this grand two thousand year cycle and the sequences contained within the cycle. Perhaps the best place to start when approaching Aion is with The Aion Lectures by Edward Edinger. These lectures were given at the Jung Institute of Los Angeles between 1988 and 1989 and, like Edinger's Mysterium lectures, also provide a short type of "Cliff Notes" to help one navigate the complex waters of the work.

As Edinger notes in the Forward to his book, "Jung's Aion laid the foundation for a whole new department of human knowledge, a scholarly discipline one might call archetypal psychohistory." It is a discipline based on the insights of depth psychology to the data of cultural history. "The historical process," writes Edinger, "can now be seen as the self-manifestation of the archetypes of the collective unconscious as they emerge and develop in time and space through the actions and fantasies of humanity."

Not just Superman. Comic books and sci-fi and fantasy in general are full of it. And it isn't necessarily intentional on the part of the artists. The archetypes of the collective unconscious are autonomous and they surface to the conscious mind in a symbolic (mythological) form...resulting in artistic inspiration. The artist in question need not even be aware of the meaning, or the archetypal unconscious patterns. The patterns, relationships, and symbols will emerge on their own from culture to culture and age to age. That's why the archetypes are collective. And unconscious.

Thats one thing that ATS doesn't seem to understand. They see symbolism synchronicity and assume it must be there because of the conscious intent of conspirators. They then posit an organization such as the Illuminati or NWO or whatever to explain it. Then they zero in on one aspect of the meaning - forgetting (or failing to realize) that symbols have a dual -nature.

Nope.

Such organizations are not necessary to explain the synchronicity and messages. The collective unconscious, which there is more than enough evidence for, is plenty explanation enough. Thus occams razor eliminates conspiracy.

Horus and Jesus are manifestations of the same archetype. Not competitors. Same archetype, different symbolic forms.

The form is always secondary. That's a lesson religious fundamentalists need to learn.

It's not that you've "made" her do anything. You must understand that there is more than the physical. There is also the Mental Realm where people communicate with thought. Most people are not aware of this consciously, but EVERYONE is aware sub-consciously. Both of your minds were agreeing to this, but you could only see from your point of view at the moment.

It's true that people can get aware with anything, but this is not the way of Spirit. Spirit is aware of all of your thoughts, intentions, deeds, although, it does not judge. You will judge yourself when you are in the afterlife fully in touch with your Spirit.

You could only serve yourself, but this is destructive to The Whole (Humanity / Planet). Only if we Care for each other will The Planet be healthy.

I definitely agree with this view. The Satanic Energy is Self-Serving, which is why it causes destruction. It keeps no Care for other people. This is also why Satan is called "The Devil", that name means "The Destroyer" in Greek.

If you see yourself as God and others below you, the self-serving energy got you. This energy either wants you to see yourself as Superior (God and everyone else is below you) or as Inferior (Evil and there is someone Better).

It doesn't want you to realize that you are a part of that which you call God and so is everyone else, equally, whether they are good or bad. The destruction caused to others is a sickness, from the lack of awareness that we are all ONE. The saying "Ex Pluribus Unum" (From Many - There Is One) is true. We are all unique making up One.

Totally!

imagine if the golden rule was an unchallenged,, and obviously accepted law the world over,,,,, we wouldnt screw over the natural habitat,,, we wouldnt screw over our fellow citizens,,,,in this life of humans,, humans are the ones that have complete control of the way things are,, and the way things go,,,, humans can act any way,,, theres no reason that all people cannot embrace each other and work together for the benefit of all,,,,

what i was talking about above in my girl scenario,,, is i realized people could be fake,,,, i realized the power of the lie,,,,, i could tell her everything she wanted to hear to get what i wanted,,,,, i could be sitting next to my best friend and curse him out in my mind every second and judge every negetive thing about them,,, i can sneakily do messed up things,,,,, this on a major level,, with all people having this potential power,,,,, its amazing the level of control and civility the majority of the population has,,, and it is not surprising there are some crazy events and things get out of hand and people clash,,,,

I Love ats. I have found so many subjects on here that I love delving into. As far as this topic I know the story of chirstiaity we have today is mostly pushed by whoever was in charge at the time. I think it is funny that most people dismiss good friday as being correct instead of good wednesday. Sat is not the only sabath. The point I wanted to make does not disprove anything but it might change one thing. Dec 25th is not when jesus was born. It would be in the dead of winter in bethleham and no sheperds would have their flocks out at night. The other thing is the 25th is winter solstice where we celebrate the sun overcoming the moon. The date of jesus's birth was assigned to the 25th by those in charge to get more people into the pews. people already celebrated winter solstice so the powers that be moved the christian celebration to the same day. Its kinda like how christian music used to be just a horrible copy of popular songs with the lyrics changed.

Is Luscifer really bad though? Because according to the Bible, if it were not for him, would we even be here? He tempted Adam & Eve... God then shunned them from the Garden of Eden where they then went and reproduced no? So was it God's intention for any of us to be here in the beginning?
Did God not say to Adam & Eve that they could eat from anything in the garden except from the tree of knowledge of good and evil and if they did they would surely die?

They then ate from it and did not perish... What is really going on?
Why would God not want us to KNOW in the beginning what good and evil was?
Was Adam & Eve made to be pets to God?
Was Satan/Luscifer actually helping man?

Bible is confusing.
I want to believe God is good, but then by just simply question things, I begin to think otherwise. I know that is blasphemy to most, but I cannot help it.

SEEK THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT that Jesus promised to those who love Him.

DON’T follow people or “Christians” Do not make take people for role models. Pray, seek Jesus, He will show you.
NEVER stop following Jesus. What ever happens ALWAYS GO BACK TO JESUS. NEVER GIVE UP UNTIL THE END.
[Jesus]
Heb 2:9
2:9 [6] But we [l] see Jesus, who was made a little [m] lower than the angels [7] for the [n] suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should [o] taste death for [8] every man.
(6) The answer: this is already fulfilled in Jesus Christ our head, who was temporarily for our sakes inferior to the angels, being made man: but now is advanced into most high glory.
(l) By his virtue and power which appears revealed in the Church.
(m) Who abased Himself for a time, and took the position of a servant.
(7) He shows the cause of this subjection, that is, to taste death for our sakes, that in so doing the part of a redeemer, He might not only be our Prophet and King, but also our High Priest.
(n) That he might die.
(o) Feel death.
(8) In this exists the force of the argument: for we could not eventually be glorified with him, unless he was abased for us, even for all the elect. By this event the apostle comes to the other part of the declaration of Christ’s person, in which He proved him to be God and also man.
It is written about Jesus by the Prophet Isaiah: ”Unto us a SON is given, a Child is born and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, MIGHTY GOD, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
||Jesus is most certainly the Living God!||
”For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are One.”
—1 John 5:7
”I and the Father are One.”
— John 10:30
"Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!"
— John 8:58
8 But of the Son He says,
“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever,
the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.
— Hebrews 1:8
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon ME whom they have (pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for [his] only [son], and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for [his] firstborn.
— Zechariah 12:10
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of GOD, thought it not robbery to be equal with GOD:
7 But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
— Philippians 2:5-11 (Letters From Prison)
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.
— Revelation 19:16
————
Let us examine the Scripture on important issues of eternal consequence.
A. Jesus Christ is The Way The Truth and The Life
John 14:6
“Jesus said unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, But by Me.”
Acts 4:12
"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven giving among men, whereby we must be saved."
1 John 5:11-13
11 “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God.”
The Bible reveals clearly that the Godhead is made up of three separate Persons, each distinct from the other. The first is called God the Father, the second is God the Son and the third is God the Holy Spirit. These three separate Persons make up the one God that we serve. Each one of these three Persons is God in all fullness. No one is greater than the others. The three Persons are united in one and there can be no separation. Each one of these three is the Creator, the Lord, and the eternal God. Yet we do not have three Creators, Lords, or eternal Gods, but One. The Scripture says:
"And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear O Israel; The Lord our God is One Lord."Mark 12:29
God the Son came to the world in human form. His name was called Jesus Christ. He came to save mankind from sin and to restore man to eternal life with God.
John 1:1-3, 10, 14
1 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew him not.
14 And the Word (Jesus) was made flesh and dwelled among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth.”
Matthew 1:21-23
21 “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.
22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23 Behold a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.”
Your eyes now have opened clearly to the One that suffered because of your sins, the One that was crucified on the cross, that died, was buried and rose from death on the third day; the One that gave the commission that the gospel be preached in all the world to make people believe on Him for the forgiveness of their sins and the salvation of their souls; the One that went back to heaven and promised that He would be coming back to the world to take His true believers to be with Him and to condemn rebellious sinners to everlasting hell fire, prepared for Satan and his angels. Your eyes have opened clearly to who JESUS is — our Lord and our God.
John 20: 27-29
27 “Then said He to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold My hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into My side: and be not faithless, but believing.
28 And Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God.
29 Jesus said unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen Me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”
There is no Salvation in any Other Religion or Belief
All those who seek the salvation of their souls through other religions or persons (saints, prophets, masters, etc.) can never find true salvation and can never enter into heaven.
John 10:8-11
To reject Jesus is to reject the God of your life. To reject Jesus means you have chosen to go to hell and be damned forever along with Satan and his subjects.
Special Adoration or Worship of Any Saint is Idolatry
There are those who exalt, adore and worship Mary the earthly mother of Jesus. They pray to her or through her. They also adore some dead saints and pray to them or through them. The Bible has this to say of such people:
Romans 1:20-22,
"Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon."
Psalm 51:1, 2
1 “Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy loving-kindness: according unto the multitudes of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions
2 Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.”
Thirdly, Jesus Christ is the Saviour from sin. You cannot stop sinning by your power without Him. Welcome Him into your life to give you the power to overcome sin. When Jesus comes into your life He will save you from sin and give you the power of righteousness. Apart from Him there is no other one and no other way.
Acts 16:30, 31
30 “And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
2 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
When you give your life to Jesus Christ your sins are forgiven and you have a new life from God. Your name enters into the book of life in heaven. Surely, you will not want to start committing new sins and to get your name removed from the book of life. You must determine to continue in Christ by living a righteous life every day to the end of your life on earth. The Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth, obey Him. Do not be afraid of man and be not ashamed of following Jesus. Dissociate from evil friends, relationships and associations.
1 John 3:9, 10
9 “Whosoever is born of God doth no commit sin; for His seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.”
Colossians 2:6-8
6 “As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him.
7 Rooted and built up in Him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.”
Water Baptism
Having given your life to Jesus Christ, you will need to submit yourself to water baptism. Water baptism follows repentance and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.
Acts 8:35-39
35 “Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.”
The scriptural water baptism is one immersion into water in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Matthew 28:19
"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost."
Water baptism is not for ignorant and unconverted children, nor for unrepentant adult. Those who were baptized when they were still sinners need to be baptized when they truly repent and give their lives to Jesus Christ. The apostles practiced water baptism according to the instruction given to them by the Lord Jesus Christ.
Acts 2:38
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."
Baptism in the name of Jesus Christ as seen in the above passage and in other passages in Acts of the Apostles means baptism as instructed or authorised by Jesus Christ.
Baptism With the Holy Ghost
Baptism with the Holy Ghost or the gift of the Holy Ghost is the coming of the Holy Spirit upon a believer in baptismal measure for the purpose of filling him with power for effective Christian service. All believers are promised the baptism with the Holy Spirit by God. This is received by prayer and faith on God’s promises.
Acts 1:8
"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."
Luke 11:13
"If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him."
The scriptural evidence of baptism with the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues as the Spirit inspires.
Acts 2:4
"And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance."
Acts 10:44-46
44 “While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God.”
Speaking in tongues as evidence of baptism with the Holy Spirit is given to every believer who is baptized with the Holy Spirit for the purpose of prayer and personal edification.
Ezekiel 33:14-16
14 “Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
15 If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he hath robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.
16 None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned unto him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.”

You MUST be Born Again
You cannot educate a slave into royalty because he was born a slave and even if you put him in a palace he will still be a slave because in his heart he is a slave. You cannot educate a sinner and make him a child of God because he was born into the slavery of sin. Jesus said that he who sins is a slave of sin.
You need to be BORN AGAIN, you need to be BORN INTO ROYALTY, you need to be BORN INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD or else, AT HEART YOU WILL ALWAYS REMAIN A SLAVE OF SIN. You cannot educate a person to be a child of God, he needs to be born again and that is what Jesus meant when He said to Nicodemus, as it is written in John 3:3-8 “Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, UNLESS ONE IS BORN AGAIN HE CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD.” 4Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he?” 5Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, UNLESS ONE IS BORN OF WATER AND THE SPIRIT HE CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD. 6“That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7“Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ 8“The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
A person who is born again of the Spirit of God IS A NEW MAN. The world does not understand him and that is why Jesus said he is like the wind, you don’t know where it comes from and where it is going next because that person is led by the Spirit of God. He can see the kingdom of God.
If you are not born again you cannot visualize, you cannot understand the kingdom of God, you are not of the kingdom of God, you are not royalty, YOU ARE A SINNER. You need to be BORN AGAIN!
He who is in Christ is a NEW MAN, the old things have passed away, HE IS NOT A SLAVE OF SIN ANY MORE, he is royalty, he is a child of God, HE IS A SAINT.
Have you been born again? Do you want to be born again and become a child of God? Then you must REPENT, you must FALL ON YOUR KNEES AND CRY OUT TO JESUS. Say:”Lord, I want You to be my Lord and Master. I don’t want to be a slave of sin any more! Please set me free from the bondage of sin! I don’t want to live the life of a sinner any more! I want to be a child of God!” Jesus will set you free. He will forgive your past sins and He will set you free from the bondage of sin and addiction. He will make you royalty, He will make you born again! He will make you a child of God, and then you have to go and bury the old man, you must go and be baptized in water so that the old man of sin can be buried under the water and out of it comes a new man, a new creature in Christ and then you ask Him to baptize you in the HOLY SPIRIT, to FILL YOU WITH THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST! If you do not have the Spirit of Christ, you do not belong to Him.
If you are in Christ you are NEW! You are not of the world any more, you are a different person. You cannot help but be a witness for Jesus because you are filled with the Spirit of God!
Have you been born again? Or have you just been educated? It is not about education, it is about REGENERATION. Have you been regenerated? Are you NEW INSIDE? Ask Jesus for the NEW BIRTH and He will change you inside, HE WILL MAKE YOU ROYALTY, He will make you a child of God.
YOU must be born again to enter the kingdom of Heaven!
May Jesus bless you.
