Chapter 13

 

Mary & Michael In The Latter Days

 

I write in the spirit as the adopted son of my Mother and Father in heaven. In Mat. 6-9, we are told, "Our Father who art in heaven..." In John 3-16-18, we are told that , Jesus is the only begotten son. So then I write as only I can, as the adopted son of God my Father in heaven and Mary my Mother in heaven. I write having learned by grace, from Jesus, who has been anointed to teach the gospel to the poor,. Luke 4-18.

As I mentioned earlier in Mary full of grace, what Eve had lost by disobedience, Mary has restored with obedience. This claim is foretold in Genesis chapter 3.

After Eve had told God that the serpent had deceived her into eating the fruit, (verse 13) then God said to the serpent, (verse 14-15) "Because you have done this cursed are you among all animals, and among all the beasts of the field, on your belly shall you crawl, dust you shall eat, all the days of your life. I will put enmity (hatred) between you, and the woman, between your seed, and her seed, he shall crush your head, and you shall lie in wait for his heel."

Again verse 15 says, "I will put enmity (hatred) between you, and the woman, between your seed, and her seed, he shall crush your head, and you shall lie in wait for his heal." This tells us that through childbirth shall come a male child who will not be deceived by the serpent.

God said to the woman in verse 16, "I will make great distress in childbearing, in pain shall you bring forth children..." So that, God saying, "Between your seed and her seed," and also saying, "He shall crush your head, " etc. and by saying, "Distress shall come through childbearing," we see that through childbirth shall come a male child, one which shall overcome the serpent.

Mary is the Mother of Jesus the only begotten son of God. She is the chosen one, who excepted the invitation of the angel Gabriel, who proclaimed to her the will of God. Now, when Mary excepted the invitation of God, Luke 1-38 she exclaimed, ""Behold the handmaiden of the Lord, be it done to me according to thy word, and the angel departed." So, what Eve had lost through disobedience, Mary the virgin reconciled with obedience. So I can clearly state here that, Mary is the Mother of reconciliation. For she is the Mother of Jesus, who is our redeemer.

We turn now to the 12th chapter of Revelation. Revelation means an enlightenment, or astonishing disclosure. Verse 1-2, tells us of a woman in the latter times who is in great distress, crying out in pain and anguish to deliver a child. This woman is clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, with a crown of 12 stars. This great sign appears in heaven.

We know that the kingdom of heaven is within us, Luke 17-21. So that we can say that the great sign in Revelation 12-1, appears within. Yet, within who, or what? Well, first let me mention the second sign that appears in heaven. The red dragon who seeks to destroy the woman and her child, Revelation 12-3.

This woman's child shall be a male child who will receive the protection of God, Revelation 12-3-6. Who then is this child? Revelation 12-7-10, "And there was a great battle in heaven, (which is within). Michael and his angels battled with the dragon... and the ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, who leads astray the whole world, and he was cast down to the earth, and with him his angels were cast down. And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying now has come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ..."

Let us understand this for what it is. A great sign will appear in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, and she is crowned with twelve stars. she suffers in labor with a male child. There it but one woman deserving of a crown, she who reconciles by obedience, Mary. As she has conceived but one child of God, therefore the child she is to conceive in the latter days is not begotten, as Jesus was but the child is adopted. The pain of childbirth is therefore of the spirit, not the flesh. So that she is giving birth to a child, who shall overcome sin, and he will not allow Satan to deceive him any longer.

Who then is this child? Michael will overcome the dragon in heaven, (within) and the serpent and his angels shall be cast down to the earth. Verse 11, says, "And they overcame, (Michael and his angels) him, (satan) through the blood of the Lamb, (Jesus Christ) and through the word of their witness, (Michael and his angels) for they did not love their lives even in the face of death."

So then Michael shall overcome Satan with the help of his angels, through the sufferings of Mary, (the woman clothed with the sun) And this shall be done by the love of God. Michael's weapon is the blood of the Lamb, (Jesus) and through the word of their witness, (Michael and his angels) (their word of witness which is that which has been given them by the grace of God,) Michael and his angels shall overcome satan.

Now many will disagree with the words of Michael and his angels, but Michael and his angels shall not love their flesh even in the face of death. So that this Michael who is upon the earth, (he must be upon the earth because his witness causes his flesh to face death) shall cause satan great anger, Revelation 12-17, against Mary, who so loves her adopted children.

So if we can understand these things then we see that the salvation and the power and the kingdom of God and the authority of his (God's) Christ, will not come until Michael and his angels overcome satan. Only then can the loud voice which is in heaven speaks out to proclaim, "Now has come..." Revelation 12-10.

So as told in Genesis 3-15, "I will put enmity (hatred) between you seed (the serpents) and her seed, (Mary)" the prophecy has come true. For satan is greatly angered, Revelation 12-17, at the woman who wears the crown of twelve stars, (who Mary alone is worthy of) for she has brought forth (in the spirit) a male child (Michael) who will overcome satan. satan is the great dragon who is called the serpent of old and devil, who leads astray the whole world, Revelation 12-9.

So again I say, as told in Genesis 3-15, "I will put enmity between, your seed, and her seed." In Revelation 12-17, satan is greatly angered because of the enmity (hatred) God spoke of to satan in Genesis 3-15.

So that in Genesis 3-15, God says, "He shall crush your head, and you shall lie in wait for his heal." He, meaning this adopted son, who through the sufferings of obedience, Mary in the latter times shall bring forth a male child, Michael, who is upon the earth in flesh, but shall overcome.

Michael is called one of the chief princes, Daniel 10-13-14, "But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the king of Persia. Now I have come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days."

Michael is also the guardian of the people, of both covenants. Daniel 12-1-4, ""And at that time shall Michael stand up. the great prince which stands 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, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever. But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and from and knowledge shall be increased."

This is the book of life also, Mat. 25-34, " Come blessed of my Father, take possession of the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." Revelation 17-8, "... And the inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life, from the foundation of the world..." Revelation 20-12, "... And another book was opened which is the book of life."

Let us go back to Daniel 12-1-4, verse 4 tells us of a great mystery in which Daniel is instructed to shut up the words, and seal the book even to the appointed time, "Many shall run to and from, and knowledge shall be increased." This statement suggests that this great mystery shall be hidden until the latter times, then, the mystery shall be made clear.

In Revelation 10-1-7, We learn of a strong angel clothed in a cloud, (purity) a rainbow over his head, a scroll in his hand, right foot upon the sea, left foot upon the earth, he cried out with a loud voice, and when he cried the seven thunders spoke out their voiced... but John (the writer of Revelation) was told to, "Seal up the things that the seven thunders spoke, and do not write them."

So that in Daniel 12-4, and Revelation 10-4, both Daniel and John were told not to make a great mystery known which is hidden until the appointed time, in the latter days.

Revelation 6-1, tells us of the four living creatures saying with a loud voice of thunder, "Come, (John) and I saw and behold a white horse, and he was sitting upon it and had a bow. And there was given him a crown, and he went forth as a conqueror to conquer."

Revelation 10-1-4, tells us of an angel standing with one foot upon the sea and one foot upon the earth, "And when he had cried the seven thunders spoke out their voices. And when the seven thunders had spoken, I was about to write; (says John) and I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Seal up the things that the seven thunders spoke, and do not write them."

Revelation 4-7, tells us of the first of four living creatures who is like a lion, Revelation 6-1, tells us that the four living creatures said as with a voice of thunder, "Come." Revelation 10-1, tells us of an angel. Revelation 10-2, tells us the angel stood one foot upon the sea and one upon the earth. Revelation 10-3 tells us the angel cried out with the voice of a lion, and the seven thunders spoke out their voices.

Revelation 10-5-6, tells us, "And the angel which I saw standing upon the sea and the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, and swore by him that lives for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that are therein, and the earth, and the things that are therein, and the sea, and the things that are therein, that there should be time no more, (or that there should be no more delay).

In this the living creature Revelation 4-7, who is like a lion, speaks as with a voice of thunder Revelation 6-1. This living creature who is like a lion with a voice of thunder is the angel who has set his right foot upon the sea, but his left upon the earth. Revelation 10-1-4. Having done this the living creature who is an angel, lift his hand to heaven and swore to him who created heaven, earth and sea, saying, let there be no more delay, Revelation 10-5-6.

In this the angel (who is standing one foot in the sea and the other on the earth) raises his hand in glory to God for ever and ever, Saying , "Come" Revelation 6-1, let there be no more delay." The living creature who has come to do these things is, Michael. For it is by the love of his adopted Mother, Mary, that , Michael shall receive the grace to be born of the true spirit. So that Michael and his angels having battled with the dragon and his angels in heaven (which is within) the dragon and his angels were cast down to the earth. Revelation 12.

In this the dragon having been cast down to the earth, shall take his seat as ruler of the kingdom's of the earth. He shall be crowned, and will go forth as a conqueror to conquer, Revelation 6-1. Having been cast down to the earth the dragon pursued the woman that had brought forth the male child, Revelation 12-13, (Mary who gave birth to Michael in the true spirit.)

There are many who will deny the testimony of Michael and his angels. As Revelation 12-7-9, tells us that the dragon having fought against Michael, did not prevail, "And the great dragon who is called the devil and satan, who leads astray the whole world was cast down to earth."

satan who has lead astray the whole earth will seek to do great harm to Michael and his angels, because, Michael and his angels overcame satan through the blood of the Lamb, and through the word of their witness, for they did not love their lives even in the face of death, Revelation, 12-11.

In order for Michael and his angels to face death they must be living creatures on the earth. Now, Michael and his angels will face the danger of losing their lives because satan has lead astray the whole world, Revelation 12-9.

Now, if Michael and his angels have overcome satan by the blood of the Lamb and through the word of their witness, Revelation 12-11, what then is the word of their witness that will cause Michael and his angels to face death?

Revelation 12-17, "AND THE DRAGON WAS ANGERED AT THE WOMAN (this is the woman God told the dragon he would put hatred between the dragon's seed and the woman's seed, Genesis 3-15.) AND WENT TO MAKE WAR WITH THE REMNANT OF HER SEED, WHICH KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD AND GIVE TESTIMONY TO JESUS CHRIST.

This is the anger that was given the dragon since the beginning. Now in the latter days the dragon still hates with anger, the woman and her seed. For the dragon has lead astray the whole world, in that the world does not know the woman, nor does the world give the woman rest from her adversary, who is the dragon.

Yet not so with Michael and his angels, for even in the face of death they will not denounce Mary their spiritual mother. So that in the latter days the dragon does not go out to wage war against those who believe in Jesus Christ, but he wages war with the remnant, or the offspring, or the seed of the woman. The woman is, Mary full of grace, who satan can not deceive as he did Eve.

For I tell you, Mary's seed are the one's who, Revelation 12-17, "Keep the Commandments of God, " such Commandments as; " Honor thy Father and Mother," Exodus 20-12. For the natural order demands that , "Thy (God's) will be done on earth as it is in heaven," Mat. 6-10.

It is by this testimony that Michael and his angels shall be subject to much condemnation that their lives shall be in danger. Even so, Michael and his angels will speak the truth that the world does not know because the dragon has lead astray the whole world.

Could it be that the whole world had been lead astray? Could it be that only this Michael and his angels have not been lead astray? How could so many be wrong? Maybe the prophecy of Michael should not be taken in the literal sense? Where is the proof that ties these writings together, in that, the whole world has been lead astray? Where is the proof that Michael and his angels alone know the truth of the Scripture?

As Michael is mentioned as one of the chief princes in Daniel 10-13, Daniel while having a vision was told, "Now I have come to make you understand what shall happen to your people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days, " (or the vision told to Daniel will not come for a long time.). Daniel 10-14.

As the vision continued Daniel was told, "I will show you that which is noted in the Scripture of truth: and there is none (or no one) that hold with me these things, but Michael your prince, " Daniel 10-21

This is the key that ties these writings together, for the vision tells Daniel that it is Michael who will know the Scripture of truth, Daniel 10-21. In this I sadly say that the whole world has been lead astray, except Michael and his angels.

Yet he, (Michael) shall not come until the appointed time. "But Daniel shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time appointed: many shall pass over, and knowledge shall be made manifold," Daniel 12-4.

What had happened here is that Daniel has been told to shut up the words, or do not clearly and plainly write about what the vision has shown him. This is why the Scripture tells us that, "Many shall pass over" the knowledge that is shut up, or not clearly written. And, this knowledge will be hidden until the appointed time, Daniel 12-4. That time is when Michael shall rise up. "But at that time shall Michael rise up, the great prince, who stands for the children of thy people: and a time shall come such as never was from the time that nations began even until that time. And at that time shall thy people be saved, everyone that shall be found written in the book," Daniel 12-1.

Daniel 12-7, Here we learn that Daniel while having a vision sees, "The man that was clothed in linen, that stood upon the waters of the river: when he had lifted up his right hand, and his left hand to heaven, and had sworn by him that lives forever, and ever..."

Revelation 10-5-6, Speaks about the same man. "And the angel whom I saw standing on the sea and upon the earth, lifted up his hand to heaven, and swore by him who lived forever and ever...

There can be but one who can fill this prophecy. For there is no other but Michael who knows the Scripture of truth, as we have learned in Daniel 10-21.

Yet Michael shall not come until the appointed time. So that when the rainbow shines about the throne, Revelation 4-3, and the angel clothed in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, and having a little scroll, (which is God's promise and the witness of his power) Revelation 10-1-2, he shall stand upon the waters swearing by him that lives forever and ever, Revelation 10-5-6.

He shall proclaim in a loud voice like a lion, Revelation 10-3, "Come" delay no longer, Revelation 10-6. So that now has come the salvation and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ..., Revelation 12-10. "And they (Michael and his angels) overcame him (satan) by the blood of the Lamb and through the word of their witness... Revelation 12-11.

Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell therein. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you in great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time," Revelation 12-12.

Could this be the great mystery shut up? I do know this, let he who has learned understand. For because of this, the ancient serpent, Revelation 12-9, "Who leads astray the whole world," (except they who shall overcome, through the sufferings of Mary, by the grace of God, which has made the serpent angry with the woman, Revelation 12-17). So that he (satan) went to wage war with the rest of ; "Her offspring" who keep the Commandments of God, and hold fast to the testimony of Jesus..." Revelation 12-17.

These things have come to pass by he who by grace has overcome. He stands one foot in the sea, and one not, Revelation 10-2, and proclaims, "Come". So behold the strong angel, that living creature, the adopted son, who shall overcome. He shall crush the head of satan, Genesis, 3-15, Michael, Revelation 12-7.

Is not Michael depicted as crushing the head of satan? Does not the name of Michael mean in Hebrew, who is like God? Michael is a great mystery in the latter days, through the grace of God, and the sufferings of his adopted mother, Mary.
