2 WORD NUMBER: PUZZLE NUMBER: WORD OF GOD: THE PUZZLE OF THE WORD GRACE: 60 3 Grace THE WAY OF HIS PRECEPTS THE MEANING OF THE WORD GRACE AS IT IS SPOKEN AND DONE IN HEAVEN: Do you understand the Word Grace? For example, where will you go when you die? The Bible reveals that if you are sent to one of God s prisons (Hades, Sheol, or Death) upon your earthly death, it will be because of your words that you received, the words that you spoke, and the words that you did while you lived in your ordained season upon this earth. If you are blessed, and you are taken to Paradise upon your earthly death, or if you are raptured and do not experience an earthly death, then it will be not only because of the Mercy of our Lord. It will also be because of the Promise of God that is within His Word Grace. The Apostle John reveals in John 1 that two things came to us that we can only receive through our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Those two things are Grace and Truth (John 1:17). Precepts can be understood to be the foundational doctrines of the Lord, and Grace is a foundation doctrine. John 1:17 17 For the law was given through Moses, but Grace and Truth came through Jesus Christ. That sounds like a very curious statement if you actually consider it carefully. Did not Truth exist before Jesus? Was there not any Grace before Jesus? Did not the Lord tell Noah that He had found Grace in the eyes of the Lord, and was not Noah then delivered from the flood? Genesis 6:8 But Noah found Grace in the eyes of the Lord. Grace = Resurrection Let us look at the statement that Noah found Grace in the eyes of the Lord. It reveals an interesting connection between what the Lord told Paul about His Grace, Grace (or Favor) and what was said about Grace in regard to Noah as is recorded in Genesis 6:8. Bible scholars have pointed out that there is an interesting tie between the name 50+8=58 Noah and the word Grace. The Hebrew spelling of Noah and the Hebrew spelling of Grace are very similar. Both words comprise of the same two Hebrew letters, the Noah two Hebrew letters of Nun and Cheth. Grace is spelt with the order of the two Hebrew letters as Nun and Cheth, while Noah is spelt with the opposite order of the 8+50=58 two Hebrew letters as Cheth and Nun (Nun being in capital case form because it The Glory of the Lord precedes Cheth, as Hebrew words are read from right to left). Thus, this also means that their Gematria numeric letter values are exactly the same as they are both made of the same two letters having a sum value of 58 (Cheth = 8, and Nun = 50, or =58 = 58). The gematria of 58 just happens to be the same numeric value sum of such Hebrew word phrases as The Glory of the Lord ; The Garden, in His blood, and Because they trust in Him ; as well as the numeric value for the Greek word of Yes!. Paul reveals in Romans 3:21-31 that faith in the Words of God is the Yes that justifies us by Grace into Eternal Life. Romans 3: But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22 even the Righteousness of God, through Faith in Jesus Christ (Through the Words of Instruction of how to do His Words to enable the Good Works of God that we have received such knowledge through Jesus), to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God, 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 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, 26 to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. 27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by Faith (Justified by the Promises of His Words) apart from the deeds of the law. 29 Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, 30 since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by Faith and the uncircumcised through Faith. 31 Do we then make void the law through Faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law. In this Writing we are going to review the meaning of the Word of God: Grace. We are going to review it in the language of heaven, or as you may understand it better, as the Word Grace is spoken and as it is understood in the language of heaven. The mystery is revealed in the book of John very clearly, but through additional scriptures of the Bible we obtain greater clarity. Grace is revealed to be the favor of God, inclusive of the Promise of God to resurrect our physical earthly bodies into eternal life, and not to send our soul into a different body, that of a man-sized worm like all the souls of the wicked will be sent into. Thus we should desire to make sure that we do secure a place that is within the Grace of God. We can say that Noah found Grace in the eyes of the Lord, or we can say that Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. However, in any case, Noah is the example of the Lord delivering us by His power over all things, over all particles, by His Glory, to deliver us into a new resurrected Life. Noah was lifted from the old earth onto the new earth. This is just as we will be, except that we will have a new body that is an everlasting body. It is the Glory of the Lord, His power over all particles and elements that enables us to be given Eternal Life. We also see the example of this in the Transfiguration, for the Lord brought forth with Him Elijah, an example of one who has never died upon the earth, and Moses, the example of one who had died on earth. (Note: This is why the Transfiguration featured Elijah and Moses, while the two witnesses will be Elijah and Enoch. Elijah will be the testimony of God s Works from the time since the flood, and Enoch will be the testimony of God s Works before the flood. For the two witnesses are coming to testify to the Promise of God s Works since the time of Creation, and not only to the power of January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 1 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

3 His Judgment and of His Resurrection Glory. Enoch and Elijah were selected since the time of their Creation for just that work. Also every man has to die once, and Moses has died, while Elijah and Enoch are the only two who have not died. It is God s Grace that keeps them in heaven until their appointed time. In the time of the Transfiguration Elijah and Moses would appear as they will in eternity - ~33 years of age, but when Elijah reappears as one of the two witnesses, he should look to be the same age as when he was taken up - ~71 years of age). In John 3:26-36, the apostle John records that John the Baptist testified that Jesus spoke the language of heaven and not of earth. Also Jesus said that He spoke what He had heard and what He had seen when He had been with His Father, and of course His Father is located in heaven. In 1 Corinthians 13:1 the apostle Paul calls it the language of heaven. In 2 Corinthians 12:1-4 Paul revealed that he was taken up to Paradise in the third heaven and he heard the Words that are too sacred for man to speak God s Words are Holy and they are the Holy Spirit. What this reveals is that Paul could understand the Words of heaven, so they were of his language, but the meanings were so much different that they took on a new meaning and they also took on divinity, as Paul says that in heaven these Words are too sacred for man. Yet remember that Paul heard them and could understand them so they are words he had heard previously, but now they have a different meaning in heaven, and they (His Words) are also Holy when understood in their heavenly meaning. (Thus, His Words are Holy Words, and this is why a Prophet speaking of the Way of His Words is referred to by the angels as being a Holy Prophet who is set apart from other prophets, for they are set apart by their knowledge of His Word of Truth Revelation 22:9). This is why Jesus, after His resurrection and return to the earth as is recorded in Luke 24:44-45, had to reveal the Words to the disciples and explain the meaning of His Words to them, and then show them these Words of God and how they are used within the Scriptures to reveal greater knowledge of God when they are read in the understanding as they are known in the language of heaven. John 3: And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified--behold, He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!" 27 John answered and said, "A MAN CAN RECEIVE NOTHING UNLESS IT HAS BEEN GIVEN TO HIM FROM HEAVEN. 28 You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, 'I am not the Christ (God sent the Messiah, the Christ, into the world to speak the Words of God Deuteronomy 18:18-19),' but, 'I have been sent before Him.' 29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; BUT THE FRIEND OF THE BRIDEGROOM, WHO STANDS AND HEARS HIM, REJOICES GREATLY BECAUSE OF THE BRIDEGROOM'S VOICE. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease. 31 He who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all. 32 And what He has seen and heard (in heaven), that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony. (He speaks the language of heaven, and not of earth only; but no one received His testimony of God s Words). 33 He who has received His testimony has certified that God is true. 34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure. 1 Corinthians 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men (The Words of God that are of their earthly language meanings) AND OF ANGELS (The same Words of God but of the interpretation that is of their Heavenly meaning), but have not love, I have become as sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. Luke 24: Then He said to them, "These are the Words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me." 45 And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures. Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, SHUT UP THE WORDS, and SEAL the BOOK until the TIME of the END; many shall run to and fro, AND knowledge shall be increased. Proverbs 9:10 Understanding of the Holy One is knowledge. (Understanding comes by the entrance of His Words per Psalm 119:130, and that comes by the pouring out of His Spirit Proverbs 1:23) Proverbs 1:23 Turn at My reproof; Surely I will pour out My Spirit on you; I will make My Words known to you. John 16: However, WHEN He, the Spirit of Truth (The Spirit of Truth is sent to open His Words and to make known His Words that are called Truth, and gives understanding of all things Proverbs 1:23), HAS COME, He will guide you into all Truth; for He will not speak on His own, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. 14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. 15 All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you. Proverbs 10:14 Wise people store up knowledge. (Knowledge is he who gains in understanding of the Holy One). Proverbs 12:8 A man will be commended according to His knowledge (Consider this carefully and you should see that a man/woman will be given greater recognition in heaven according to their knowledge of the Holy One). I Timothy 6: Fight the Good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the Good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 13 I urge you in the sight of God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who witnessed the Good confession before Pontius Pilate, 14 that you keep this commandment without spot, blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ's appearing.. Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Micah 6:8 8 He has shown you, O man, what is Good; and WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU BUT TO DO JUSTLY, TO LOVE GOOD DEEDS, AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR GOD? Psalm 14:2-3, & Psalm 53:2-3 2 The Lord looks down from Heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, WHO SEEK GOD. 3 They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none that does GOOD, no, not one.

4 The following chart may help you to understand the flow that all languages on earth come from the wisdom and the allowance of God, for all things consist in the Lord (Colossians 1:15-17). Under the divine inspiration of the Holy Spirit holy men of God wrote the Bible. It was written using two earthly languages (Hebrew and Greek) by men. However, within the entirety of the Bible there consists of two base languages. These are (1) the languages of earth; and (2) the greater language that is above all, the language of Heaven. Though both languages use the same words, these Words when translated in the heavenly language from within the Scriptures, we are given a greater and more thorough understanding of the Knowledge of the Way, the Promises, and the Works of God. Further, the 153 words of the language that are set apart as being Words of God are very Sacred and Holy when they are spoken and when the meaning of them is physically done. (Two examples of His Words being done and thus being Holy, are (1) when the Lord appeared to Moses in the fiery bush, and (2) when the Lord appeared to Joshua along the Jordan with a drawn two-edged Sword in His hand). We may be able to understand that there is a Godly language of heaven that is entwined with Holy Words, if we consider carefully three particular proclamations of Jesus. In John 3:1-21 there is the revelation of a meeting that took place between Jesus and a Jewish Rabbi, the Pharisee, Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. In this passage Jesus rebukes Nicodemus for not recognizing that there is an earthly knowledge and a heavenly knowledge. But, do not forget that we are taught in 2 Timothy 3:16-17 that the Scripture are there to fully equip us for every Good Work. Being born again is a Good Work. So the knowledge of this is in the Scriptures, yet Nicodemus had not seen it, nor did he discern it. In John 3:10-12, Jesus explains to Nicodemus that there are things of earth and things of heaven. Jesus is saying that Nicodemus, as a Jewish Teacher, was supposed to have learned this from the Scriptures. Consider the fact that the Jewish Rabbis were learned men of the Scriptures. John 3: Jesus answered and said to him (Nicodemus), Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things? 11 Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not believe Our witness. 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? (Consider that being born again in the Spirit is something that they should have known, for the Words of God recorded in Moses told them that they had to receive His Words in Deuteronomy 18:18-19, and in Deuteronomy 6:4-9 they were told that they had to write them on their heart and in their mind. So they should have know that God is in His Words and that January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 3 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

5 His Words are Spirit. But they had rebelled to learn this from the days of Moses until then. David had told them that if was the entrance of His Words that puts the Light of God in them, but they refused to hear this. In Proverbs 1:23 the Lord made it even easier for them. He said to them that if they turn at His reproof and hear His Calling out wisdom to them, them He would pour out His Spirit upon them and make His Words known to them. If they could not discern the Way to receive His Spirit, then they could not be enabled to discern the Way of His Good Works the things of Heaven. Clearly Nicodemus and the Jewish Rabbi s missed this but in truth, so have all the Gentile Preachers since the days when the last of the Apostles were gone). John 5: If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true. 32 There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness He witnesses of Me is true (Deuteronomy 18:18-19). 33 You have sent to John, and he has borne witness to the Truth. 34 Yet I do not receive testimony from man, but I say these things that you may be saved (Jesus is warning that if you do not hear His Words then you shall not be saved. When His Words are opened and we do not hear them, then the Father holds us accountable as per Deuteronomy 18:18-19 and Hebrews 10: In these very days, when His Words are now opened, we have no excuse: Jesus is saying that we are not saved if we do not hear His Words and receive them, and then turn and be diligent to seek to increase in knowledge of God so that we can go forth to do them). 35 He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light. 36 But I have a greater witness than John s; for the works that the Father has given Me to finish the very works that I do bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me. 37 And the Father himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me (Deuteronomy 18:18-19). You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His Word abiding in you, because whom he sent, Him you do not believe. (Jesus was sent in to the world to speak the Words of God and they did not receive Him, and we have not understood it either and we have also not received this Good News, so we are as guilty of being in sin as like the Jews of Jesus days, and even greater because we have so much resource capability to review the scriptures and discern His Truth, but we are too lazy and too conceited in our wisdom and knowledge. He has set before us a Door and we refuse to even open it. So for this we are in sin and about to be cast out into the Darkness, even though we believe that we are saints, deacons, prophets and intercessors. Many people boldly call themselves Apostles, and do not realize that they sin against God in doing so. Remember that the holy apostles and prophets are those set apart by His Truth that is the knowledge of the Words of God, according to John 17:17, and fulfilled in Luke 24:44-45 and 2 Corinthians 12:1-4. The Lord warns us in Revelation 2:1-7, against falsely calling ourselves apostles when we are not. Our sinful pride is as great or greater than the Jewish priests, the Pharisees and the Scribes in Jesus day). In the Lord s teaching in John 5:45-47, we are taught a very interesting lesson that we seem to skip over. Jesus is saying that the Writings of Moses are correct; and further, the Lord is saying that if we cannot accept Moses writings then we are not going to be able to perceive from out of the Scriptures the Words of God that Jesus speaks. Please consider carefully the Lord s phrasing in John 5:46. The Lord says that Moses wrote about Him, John 5: Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father, there is one who accuses you Moses, in whom you trust. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for He wrote about Me. (Moses wrote about His Works and Moses made it a law for every father to teach His Words and His Words are God for they are Spirit Deut. 6:4-9; Deut. 11:18-21; Ps. 78:1-8; Pr. 4:1-7). 47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe in My Words? John 8:47 47 He who is of God hears God s Words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God. (Consider this statement carefully for a moment and you should be able to understand the Words of God are not all the Words that are in the Bible. For in this verse the Lord is speaking to men who had studied the Old Testament Scriptures, all that was available at that time, and these men were scholars of the Bible in their day, probably more of a scholar than most of this day. But, the Lord is saying that these learned Bible scholars did not discern God s Words from the Scriptures. This should raise our eyebrows and begin to wake us up to the fact that the entirety of the scriptures is not considered the Words of God. Sure, all scriptures were written under the divine inspiration of the Holy Spirit. But, all of the words in the Bible make up the scriptures of the book, while the Words of God are found woven within the Scriptures that are within the Book. So the words that make up the entirety of the Bible and the Words of God that are woven within the parables woven within the Scriptures are different from each other. There are 153 Words of God that are incorporated within parables that are woven into the Scriptures of the Bible). John 5:24-25 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My Word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into everlasting life. Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; AND those who hear will live. John 12:48 He who rejects Me, and does not receive My Words has that which judges him the Word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. Paul reveals very Good Truth to us in Ephesians 5: He tells us that His Words are the Light that manifest the Light in us. In 1 John 1:5 we are told that God is Light, and Joan chapter 1 we are told that Jesus is the Light, and in Psalm 119:130 we are told that it is the entrance of His Words that puts that Light in us. Thus, Paul reveals to us in Ephesians 5:13 that it is His Words that manifests the Light in us, and therefore His Words is also that Light. Ephesians 5: But all things that are reproved (exposed) are made manifest by the Light, for whatever makes manifest is Light (In Psalm 119:130 we are taught that t is the Words of God that gives us Light. In this verse we are taught that His Words are Light for they are what makes manifest the Light). 14 Therefore He says, Awake you who sleep, arise from the dead, and Christ will give you Light. 15 See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. (The Lord desires us to increase in the Knowledge of God and to do Good Works Hosea 6:6 and Micah 6:8. In 1 January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 4 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

6 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Timothy 2:4 the Lord restates this as it is His desire for all of us to come into the knowledge of the Truth. These are all the same meaning). Proverbs 14:6-7 6 A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not find it, but knowledge is easy to him who understands. 7 Go from the presence of a foolish man, when you do not perceive in him the lips of knowledge. Proverbs 15: The ear that hears the reproof of Life will abide among the wise. (The one who is wise receives the Words of God in His heart). 32 He who disdains instruction despises his own soul, but he who heeds reproof gets Understanding (In Proverbs 1:23, the Lord says turn at My reproof, and I will pour out My Spirit upon you and make My Words known to you). 33 The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom, and before honor is humility. By the reading of this Writing it is my hope that the Lord will make clear to you the understanding of the true meaning of why the apostle John says in John 1:16 that of His fullness we have all received, Grace for grace. Before reviewing this revelation of the Word of God: Grace, please read the following Scriptures of John chapter 1 and think upon them carefully, for it will begin to enable you to comprehend the fullness of the meaning of Grace as it is in heaven. John 1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men (Jesus came to speak the Words of God Deuteronomy 18:18-19, John 3:34. The entrance of His Words Gives us Light and Understanding of God Psalm 119:130). 5 And the Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it (Jesus spoke His Words to us who live in the darkness in this world, but we, the people of the earth, did not hear Him, and we therefore did not comprehend His Words and what they meant). 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe (John the apostle records the testimony of John the Baptist about Jesus in John 3:26-36). 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light (Jesus is the Light for it is He who reveals His Words and opens to us the understanding of God, and God is Spirit and the Spirit is Light, and Jesus is Light). 9 That was the true Light which gives Light to every man coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him (Gives God who is in His Words to every man who will hear Him). 11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God, (Catch this clarification carefully, for John is saying we are born of God when we receive His Words in us, and that means we are born again of God, and His Words are God. That is the true meaning of being a born again believer, for those who hear His Words receive God in them, for God is Spirit and the Spirit is Truth and the Lord does not give His Spirit in anything less than full measure. If, when the Words of God are opened to us, and we do not receive His Words, then we are therefore not born again. This is why Jesus says in John 8:47 that if we do not hear His Words, then we are not of God. Thus, if we do not receive His Words we are not born again and we are thus not saved). 14 And the Word became Flesh (Jesus Name that He was given from Creation is the Words of God for Jesus says that He is Truth, and Truth is the entirety of the Words of God. Thus, when we speak in the Name of Jesus, we are speaking in the name of the Words of God. But, it is far better when we do the Words of God or this can be said to do the name of Jesus than it is than we just verbally speak His Words. For by our doing His Words we are testifying of the Lord s Promises, and this is a far greater way of giving Glory to the Lord than to just simply speak verbally. It is a better testimony, a more rewarding praise of God). The Word (of God) became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His Glory (The Glory of God is His power over all particles by His voice. We may not hear His voice when a miracle occurs, January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 5 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

7 but that Promise of healing was spoken by God at sometime a forehand, even if it was in His Word from the beginning), the Glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of Grace and Truth (Grace is His favor in His Will, and Truth is all Works of Creation established in obedience to the law the covenant- of His Word). 15 John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, "This was He of whom I said, 'He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.'" (Jesus existed before our Creation within the earth on day 3, and our giving of Spirit, meaning time, season, and ordinance, on day 6). 16 And of His fullness we have all received, and Grace for grace. (Consider that John wrote this book at a time after He had received the knowledge of the Words of God, as is made clear in Luke 24:44-45, so John understood the fullness of the meaning of Grace when He wrote this proclamation within this book) 17 For the law was given through Moses, but Grace and Truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him. (Hear this carefully for John is saying that Jesus declared the Father, and Jesus declared that His Words are Spirit John 6:63, and that God is Spirit John 4: Jesus declared that God is His Words). In this Writing the Word of God that is the word Grace, will be explained to be the Promise of the power of God to resurrect us into Eternal Life and to provide for us all that we need. A Promise made by God and placed within a Word of God, also means that the Word is Holy, and that it is supernatural for the Father includes in the Word all the authority and power to accomplish the Promise that is given. This is the knowledge of the deeper Promise of Grace, that is the Way of His Promise of favor, for even being resurrected is by the Promise of His Favor. This is why it is revealed in John 3:34 that all of the Words of God only are given in the full measure of the Spirit of God. In this Writing we will also see why it is only through Jesus that we receive the Grace that comes down from heaven. We will also come to understand that there is a Judgment that comes with Grace. If we do not increase in the Knowledge of God so that we can comprehend this, then we stand in the street not knowing if we are trampling upon the Spirit of Grace or walking by following in the Way of His Shadow. Paul warns us that it is very dangerous to trample upon the Spirit of Grace. Hebrews 10: and so much more AS YOU SEE THE DAY (Day of the Lord that is the beginning of the Time of the End) APPROACHING. 26 For IF we sin willfully AFTER We HAVE RECEIVED the KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins. 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation, which will devour the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has rejected Moses law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 Of how much worse punishment do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of Grace? 30 For we know Him who said Vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord. And again, The Lord will judge His people. 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God. THE WAY OF THE WORD GRACE In John 1:16 we are told by the Apostle John that the Lord gives His Grace for our grace. The apostle John then adds in John 1:17 that Grace and Truth came through Jesus. This verse that has been widely translated and analyzed by Bible Scholars, but, why is this statement true? What is Grace? John 1: And of His fullness we have all received, and Grace for grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses, but Grace and Truth came through Jesus Christ. Those Who Diligently Seek Good Find Grace, for the Meaning of Grace is Favor In Hebrew the word for Grace also has the meaning of Favor. Thus it is translated often within the Old Testament as Favor. For example, in Proverbs 11:27 we are told, those who diligently seek Good shall find Favor. That verse would also be correct if we translated it as those who diligently seek Good shall find Grace. The Grace of God is the Favor of God in the earthly language; and in the heavenly language it is the Eternal Promise of the favor of God for those who seek increase in Knowledge of God to do Good. The Bible tells us that we get the Grace from heaven for the grace we give here on earth when done in the way of His Promise and the knowledge of the Spirit and of Truth. In the Writing The Word of God: Good I have explained what the Lord revealed to me in regard to His Word Good. I am including in this Writing the chart of the Word of God that reveals the way that we seek Good and receive the Favor of God. Favor is the Grace of God, and it becomes more clear of the Understanding of Grace for grace when we begin to understand that we are required by the Lord to do two things: (1) increase in the Knowledge of God, and (2) to seek to do Good deeds. It is only possible to enable the Good Works of the Father after we have increased in the knowledge of God. This helps us to also understand the parable that the Lord spoke through Daniel in regard to these last days when His Word would be opened, and He says that knowledge shall increase. Proverbs 11:27 He who diligently seeks Good finds favor. Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Micah 6:8 8 He has shown you, O man, what is Good; and WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU BUT TO DO JUSTLY, TO LOVE GOOD DEEDS, AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR GOD? Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, SHUT UP THE WORDS, and SEAL the BOOK until the TIME of the END; many shall run to and fro, AND knowledge shall be increased. Daniel 12: And He said, Go your way, Daniel, for the Words are closed up and sealed till the Time of the End. 10 Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, BUT THE WISE SHALL UNDERSTAND. (Take notice that the Lord is saying that the Wise shall Understand. The meaning of Understanding is to gain in the Knowledge of God. Since the Spirit of Truth can only January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 6 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

8 come when the Knowledge of Truth is received, then it is that when the Spirit of God the Spirit of Truth comes, then those who are diligent to watch for Him to come as a surprise to us, as He foretold in Luke 21:34-36, will be increased In all Truth, and God is Truth. Thus, since the Father knows the Day and the Hour, we will be able to know that Day and Hour after the Spirit of Truth has come. However, since the Spirit of Truth cannot come until Truth is released, it means that the Lord has already come as a snare upon everyone of us on the face of the whole earth. For God came in the Spirit, in the flesh, as flesh is made known in heaven, when His Words came to us meaning when His Words were opened to us in June 2003). As reviewed earlier, and as is recorded in John 3:34, John the Baptist testifies that Jesus was sent into the world to speak the Words of God. This is confirmation of a promise of God that was given to us in Deuteronomy 18:18-19, that He was sending the Messiah and He will speak His Words (The Words of God) and Jesus would do all the things that He was told by the Father. He came to teach us Good and to guide us in the way of God s Good. He came as the Good Teacher. The Father sent the angels to the shepherds, as a sign that He had sent us the true Good Shepherd, and He announced to them that He had sent them His Good Will and His Peace. (Consider that the Lord said that He did come to bring Peace on earth; yet He told the Disciples that His Peace He gave to them. This should give us a clue that there is an additional understanding of the word Peace in the Language of Heaven). John 3:34 Whoever does accept His testimony attests that God is true; for He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God grants the Spirit only in full measure. Deuteronomy 18: I will raise up for them a Prophet (Jesus) like you from among their brethren, and will put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. 19 And it shall be that whoever will not hear My Words, which He speaks in My name, I WILL REQUIRE IT OF HIM. John 8:47 He who is of God hears God s Words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God. (The prophets of this day should be highly concerned about the Lord s warning that He reveals within this verse. You may hear Words of Prophecy from the Lord, but unless you hear the Words of God that He is revealing, then you are not actually of God. This is why in Matthew 7:21-23 the Lord warns that there are going to be many prophets and intercessors who are not going to be accepted into heaven, and the Lord will say to them to depart from Him for they are workers of lawlessness. January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 7 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

9 This is because they refused to hear and to heed His Commandment of Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and Deuteronomy 11:18-21, and thus they will miss out on heaven because they are lawless in His eyes. They believe that they are rich in the Spirit because they hear the prophetic words from God, but so did Balaam. They have to go further and they must increase in the Knowledge of God s Words, or if not, then they will not be prophets hearing from God in the Time of the Night, and if they are not careful, then pride and rebellion could rise up and cause them to miss out on Eternal Life altogether). Now, since Grace came through Jesus, and Jesus came to speak the Words of God, the Word Grace has to also be a Word of God. The Bible reveals that God s Words have existed since forever, and they will be for everlasting. The Bible also reveals that His Words are Holy Words. Thus, all of God s Words existed since before the Creation and His Words will exist forever into all Eternity. In Isaiah 51:16 the Lord says that He put His Words in our mouth since the time we were created and placed in the earth to come forth in our season. Thus, all of God s Words were given to us from the time of Creation. So, how can it be true for John to record that Grace, a Word of God that has existed since the time of Creation, and put into our mouth by the Lord from the time of Creation, came through Jesus? This is because Grace is given for grace. Since Grace is the same as Favor, and since the Lord reveals that those who seek Good find favor Proverbs 11:27; it thus means that Grace is also the instruction of God in the way of enabling the Father to do His Good Works. The Lord Gives His Grace for Grace Consider, in order to do Good Works, we need to receive the instruction of Knowledge that is only given by our seeking Jesus, and having the Lord to pour out His Spirit upon us that enables us to increase in Understanding. Thus, as we are in the action of seeking knowledge, the Lord is pouring out Grace upon us, and this Grace is the Spirit that is allowing our minds to discern His Words and enabling us to increase in the Knowledge of God s Promises so that we can do the way of the Words of God and enable those Promises of God to be done as we ask of Him. Thus, if we meditate upon this, then we should be able to discern that the Spirit of Truth is the knowledge of His Words, but the Spirit of Grace is the Spirit that makes knowledge of the way of doing His Words. For when we do Good we are doing Grace, and John says that God gives His Grace for grace. His favor towards us, in turn for our favor towards others. But, God pours out His Grace just for our having sincere thoughts of grace. It is likened to His teaching that if we just diligently seek Good, then we find Grace - or stated the same way: we find God s favor. If we hear the Lord s command to us in its fullness of meaning, then we will comprehend that we are only wise if we hear what He says and then we actually do them. Then it is worth great value to us, but as we will see in this Writing and others that the Lord has given me to write, we have not truly understood that value, and our houses are built upon sand. Unknowingly we are in danger as the storms of the Night are coming and we have not prepared our house, as we have not actually known the Words of the Rock. Matthew 7:24-27 "THEREFORE WHOEVER HEARS THESE SAYINGS OF MINE, AND DOES THEM, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. (The Troubles of the Night are soon coming, where have you built your house?). BUT EVERYONE WHO HEARS THESE SAYINGS OF MINE, AND DOES NOT DO THEM, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall." Proverbs 16:16 How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get Understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. (Do not chase the prosperity of this earth, but chase firstly after knowledge and to do Good Works, then God will cause all the other things you require to be added unto you). Grace is not free, as it is a reciprocal action word. It seems like we mostly fail to comprehend that the Lord gives Grace FOR grace. In other words, although eternal Life is a free gift for those who hear Him and believe on Him, we fail to see that the Lord requires that we do not have complacent minds and hearts towards His Words and His commands in order that we may receive eternal life. Luke 16: "There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. 20 But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, 21 desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 "Then he cried and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.' 25 But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your Good things (The favor of God allowed him to have his desire, but now he pays the price for obtaining the fruit of his desire. This is the price of those who chase after the false teaching of these last days prosperity teachers. They are receiving the things of the world that they have lusted, but when the die they will find that they have already enjoyed their good things, and on their earthly death they will pay the price for the fruit of the world that they lusted after and obtained, when they should have obeyed God and sought the true knowledge of Him and grew in His Words so that they could enable God to do good for others), and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented. 26 And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us. 27 Then he (The rich man imprisoned in Hell who had been a complacent worshipper) said, I beg you therefore, father (Abraham), that you would send him (Lazarus, the poor beggar who had died and gone to Paradise) to my father s house, 28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment. 29 Abraham said to him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. 30 And he (The rich man) said, No, January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 8 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

10 father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent. 31 But he (Abraham) said to him, If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead. The poor man Lazarus was given the grace of God in his death. Consider that Lazarus had himself laid at the gate of the rich man and he desired to be fed only of the crumbs that fell from his table. The scripture indicates that this man was so full of sores that he had to be laid at the gate of the rich man by others who could not help him. It is the Law of God that we are to place the Words of God on all of our gates. This is a law that we are obligated to perform. Because of God s law it means that God will also supply the abundance to feed those at our gate. Clearly the rich man had been given enough favor (Grace) from God so that He was able to feed Lazarus who was doing in obedience to the way of the Word of God. Therefore when Lazarus died he was given Life that is the promise of God that is within His Words, for all who do the way of His Words according to knowledge, or by the wisdom given to us for guidance by the Holy Spirit. The rich man trampled upon the Spirit of Grace by not honoring the Law of God that is given in Deuteronomy 6:4-9, 11: He was not given the favor of God (Grace of God) of Life. Now you may understand better why Abraham said to the rich man that they have the writings of Moses and the prophets and it is enough for them. If we place His Words on our doors and our gates, we honor God s Words and His Way. Deuteronomy 6:4-9 (The Bible Refers to this passage as both the Law of the Fathers and the Law of the Mothers) 4 "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord! 5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul, and with all your might. 6 And these Words which I command you this day shall be upon your heart; 7 and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 8 And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 And you shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates." (Do you have the sign of His Words on the doors of your house, on your car, and on your right wrist? Do you wear them around your neck?). Deuteronomy 11:18-21 (THIS IS THE LAW OF THE PARENTS AND THE LEADERS) 18 Therefore you shall lay up these Words of Mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19 You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. 20 And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates (The Gates are the places of Business and of Government, today that is the doors of our offices, the doors of both business and Government), 21 that your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, like the days of the heavens above the earth. (Are the Words of God posted upon all the doors of your houses, on your business, and on all the doors of our Government?) The Disciple, and Apostle, John, says that He gives Grace for grace. The rich man chose to not give grace to the beggar Lazarus and he was not given Grace from God. It seems likely that the appearance of Lazarus with all of his sores was a sight that the rich man did not want to have positioned at his gate. This parable reveals to us that the rich man knew God and was well acquainted with the Bible, for he recognized his father Abraham. In addition the Lord was telling this parable to a group of Pharisees who seemed to be very proud of the knowledge of Scriptures for they had boldly chastised teachings of the Lord, as is recorded in Luke 16:14. Luke 16: Nor the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard these things, and they derided Him (To deride means that they turned their nose up at Him. I have had the same experience from prosperity teachers and prosperity prophets. Those who have talked to me have rejected the Knowledge of Truth as it contradicts what they believe that they are hearing from the spirit. But the spirit they are hearing from is the spirit of error because their teachings do not align with the purpose of God s Word. I have even been told by some that no one can make sense of the End Times Prophecies in the Bible, for that is all written in gobbly gook. All Scriptures were written by the Inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Paul said that from such people turn away before the sin of their abominations comes onto you. They twist the Scriptures to justify themselves, but their teaching does not stand the test of all the Scriptures). 15 And He said to them, You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. 16 For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God. The Law and the Prophets were until John. Since that time the Kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it (Jesus came to speak the Words of God and that is the Kingdom of God. The Words of God give a fuller knowledge of the Law and the Writings of the Prophets. The law and the Prophets did not pass away, but the Words of God fulfilled them and opened them so that all knowledge of God is now available to be made known, and that is greater than what was available to man prior to Jesus. However, the Gentile world is mixed into a hybrid teaching that is somewhere between the Law and the Writings of the Prophets, and the Words of God. The teachings of today are Take Notice!! The Law and the Writings of the Prophets was preached until John the Baptist THEN JESUS WAS SENT INTO THE WORLD Jesus Brought The Teaching of The Good News: Grace and Truth Grace = The Knowledge of His Good Works that enable Him to give us His Favor for our grace that w e extend to others Truth = The knowledge of the Words of God that opens the Understanding of God and the way to enable Him to do His Good Works for others as we ask it of Him. Then we find Grace January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 9 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

11 something that is lukewarm and not fulfilled to the knowledge of God. Today the preachers try to say that the Law is not in affect, yet the Lord says that not one drop of the Law is not in effect. In fact the Lord says that greater than the Law is now applied, for we are accountable all the way to the Understanding of the Knowledge of the Glory of the Lord. Preachers today say you can be saved by just believing Jesus died on the Cross, but they ignore the warning of Paul that when the Knowledge of Truth has come, that there no longer remains the blood sacrifice over willful sins, because knowledge of the purpose of the Cross is now made known. Thus, the doing of willful sins tramples upon the Spirit of Grace that is the blood of Christ Hebrews 10: Jesus came to open Knowledge of God, and the Knowledge of God is the fulfillment of the knowledge of the Law and even more. For Jesus came to make known the way to Good Works that finds the Grace of God and gives the surety of the gift of Eternal Life. Preachers must be careful of their lips, for they are in grave danger of being the same as these Pharisees. Remember that the Lord is the reader of the hearts of man, and to have ignorance of His Word is a sin for a teacher of God s Word. For it is by a lack of knowledge that His people are destroyed, and they chose to become shepherds of His people. They are His people and not theirs, so those who mislead His sheep will pay the every penny for the sheep they have led astray, so they must open their eyes, turn, repent, and become zealous for His Word so as to understand and do Good Works. The Lord s sheep desire most to hear His voice and His Word. If you want to be healed, and to also heal your people, then teach His Words to them, and you will see that they will press into His Word zealously if you give them the opportunity to see the way to the entrance of understanding His Words Psalm 119:130). 17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tittle (A tittle is the smallest stroke of the Hebrew letters) of the Law to fail. (In no way are we exempt from the Law of the Old Testament. In fact Jesus expanded the knowledge of that Law and made it more exact. His yoke Is easy and the burden is light, but it is a narrow path. Jesus did away with the sacrifices of blood and animals, and replaced it with the requirement to believe on Him and to hear His Words. We have had Grace to cover our ignorance, but now the Grace is only applicable when we do as He has commanded us, and come to His Great Supper. The First Law of God is that we love the Lord our God with all our heart, all our soul and with all of our mind. Since God is His Words, then you can see that His Words ought to consume your mind if you desire to be in obedience to the desire and the first Commandment of God). Jesus was showing the Bible scholars that they were missing the knowledge of the Scriptures and that they had access to lots of the bread of heaven, but they were not obeying the will of God and teaching and showing the people of Israel the way. These Pharisees thought that they were rich in the knowledge of Scriptures, and they would not hear the Lord. In this parable the Lord showed many truths and the shame of these Pharisees was greatly exposed, yet they likely went away not even close to realizing the amount of shame they had brought upon themselves for their lack of knowledge of the Scriptures. For example the Lord intentionally referred to the fact that the rich man died in his just season and his soul was taken to the prison of God called Hades. There are five prisons of God that are referred to in the Scriptures, but the Lord chose the prison of Hades for this parable. (The souls of the wicked of man who have died are presently found in the prisons of God called Hades, Sheol, and Death. The fallen angels are located in the prison of God called Tartarus; and finally, the eternal prison is called the 2 nd Death, or also called as Gehenna or the Eternal Lake of Fire ). The Bible explains that Hades (or better known in English as Hell), is located in the midst of the earth, and it is a prison for complacent believers. This rich man having lived sumptuously had likely provided his tithes and offerings diligently. The words of the parable reveal that He was fully acquainted with Abraham, Moses and the prophets. The parable also reveals that he was shocked at being sent to Hades. The Lord also explains that this man was like the Pharisees, he never thought that he was not walking correctly, and for that reason he wanted them to send someone back to warn his five brothers who were also likely believers of God and who thought that they were on the right path to eternal Life. Also take notice that this rich man was in the body of a worm while he could see that the beggar Lazarus was not chained inside the body of a worm. The rich man had no arms or legs, and for this reason he begged for some one to come and put even a single drop of water on his tongue as he would not even be able to hold the cup. The Bible reveals that all those who die and go to a prison of God are chained inside the body of a man-sized worm, and they are tormented both day and night. (I have explained this in many Writings, such as: The Gift of God, America in the Time of the Affliction of Joseph, and The Mystery of Life and Death ). Revelation 20:13 The Sea gave up the dead who were in it (The prison of Sheol is located in the Sea of the Deep that is in the Darkness), and Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. And they were judged each one according to his works. Proverbs 1:12 Let us swallow them alive like Sheol (In the Sea of the Deep), and whole like those who go down to the Pit (Death is in the Outer Darkness of the Pit, just above the eternal prison of God that is called the 2 nd Death). Job 26:5 The souls of the wicked are made to writhe (A worm writhes) beneath the Waters. (The Waters is the place that surrounds our heavens, and the Darkness and the Outer Darkness are located on the outside of the Waters). Mark 12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore greatly mistaken. Mark 9:44,46,48 where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched. (The eternal fire will symbolize the knowledge of the Fear of God. Those in His Prisons are forever remembering that they blew it they missed out on life, and they live with that sorrow forever, and they also live in continuous torment and terror) Even the Crumbs of His Grace is Healing and Power In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus it is important to not miss the teaching that the Lord gives about the crumbs of the bread that falls from your table. There is great meaning to the Lord s use of symbolizing the beggars January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 10 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

12 desire to eat the crumbs from the table. When Lazarus was lying at the gate of the rich man, he was identifying the rich man as the Master of the house. In history the gates of the city was where trading and business were accomplished, and even where justice was rendered. The Lord tells us in Scripture that we are to seek Him at the post of His gate, diligently watching for Him. The gates have always identified decision making in the giving, in the selling, and in the purchasing of all our needs. Beggars have always waited at the gates. We see this even today with the people begging for money at the gates of our streets. Unfortunately, most of the beggars of today are just lazy, for they could work, and they do not meet the qualifications like this beggar with sores who waited at the gates of Lazarus. The rich man was as a Pharisee. He was rich in material things but lacking greatly in the knowledge of God, and he did not know the Words of God or the promises of God contained within His Words. If he had, then he would have had compassion on this man, and if the rich man would have had wisdom of God s Words he would have sought the Lord to heal this man Lazarus, for Lazarus was doing the ways of the Words of the Lord by being at the rich man s gate. He was asking for crumbs of bread that would fall from the table. Notice that the Lord did not say parcels of meat, but rather he said parcels of bread. The reason is that the beggar only needed to be healed, and the instruction of the Words of God is represented within the bread of heaven, and Jesus is that bread. Jesus was showing us that the beggar was already doing the Way of the Word of God by waiting at the gate and desired only crumbs of bread. The Lord is saying that if the rich man had been wise in the Words of God, then he would have daily given this man loaves of bread, all he wanted, in faith believing that God would heal this man in His season. For if the rich man would have shown Grace (Favor) to Lazarus who was following the way of the healing Words of God, then not only would the Lord have healed Lazarus so that he could go on with his life normally, the Lord would have also blessed the rich man with favor even greater than he had, for he would have demonstrated God s Words and brought the true praise of the shouts of Glory upon the Lord. Proverbs 11:27 He who diligently seeks Good finds favor (God s Grace is God s Favor). John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. (This means that God will do it for you, in that He will give Grace for grace). To understand this concept more, consider the parable of the woman of Canaan who chased after Jesus to get a miracle for her daughter. This woman did not know the Words of God, but she had some knowledge of the Scriptures. The Lord blesses this woman and tells her great is her faith. Now this woman had little amount of the knowledge of God, as the Words were not yet opened to her, although Jesus was teaching them and the people, and even His disciples who walked with Him, were not yet seeing what He was actually teaching and doing. The Lord tells this woman that great is her faith because of what little understanding that she did have of His Words, she was utilizing the most of the wisdom of His promise that she had received. Consider that like the rich man, the disciples were embarrassed to have this begging lady in their presence. They wanted this lady sent away. It seems likely that they were doing all that they could to discourage her and convince her to go away, but it was not working, as the lady persists to call out after the Lord. The disciples seemed to be totally vexed by her, and they ask the Lord to send this lady away, for clearly she was not going to listen to them who did not want her to be there. But, instead the Lord answers the woman. The Lord answered the woman by testing her faith. He states the truth clearly to her. He says that the Father had not sent him to the Gentiles, for He had been sent only to the Jews. But, the door to God s miracles has never been fully closed to anyone, even to this very day, for the Lord has given us a deposit of His Words to utilize to do miracles even to this day. This is what we see in this parable teaching the Lord gives us through the faith of the Canaanite woman. The woman tells the Lord that it does not matter that He was not sent to the Jews, for the Father has always given the people at least the crumbs from His table, and He has never closed us off completely from the promises within His Words. The Canaanite woman says that even the way of the Father is to allow the dogs to eat the crumbs off the floor from the Master s table. That is the knowledge of the way of the Words of God that this woman had. The Lord is telling us that even this morsel of the knowledge of the way of the Father s promises that are in His Words is enough to accomplish great miracles. The Lord says GREAT was this woman s faith. This is because this is one of the great teachings of the Lord in the Bible, and it is the very heart of why we have seen miracles of God from the time after the apostles even until now, though His Words were closed to the Gentiles. The Lord gave us His Words Grace and Truth and those two Words were enough crumbs to more than carry us through until now. We have seen great miracle in the world in the last several years, including people rising from the dead, and of limbs being grown. That is because the Father and our Lord have never stopped working until now, and we have had a little of the crumbs of His Words. We have had Grace and Truth available to us, even though we did not have them in the fullness of the knowledge of His power. Though we have only had the crumbs from the Master s table we have had enough that could have healed all those in the world. Now the fullness of God that is in all of His 153 Words is now available to us to receive and to learn. Soon the power of the Lord will fall on us, and then the greatest works ever known on earth shall be accomplished. This Canaanite woman was also in the Will of the Lord for she was being diligent not for her own needs, but for the need of her daughter, and the Lord gave her His Grace. Matthew 15: Then Jesus went out from there and departed to the region of Tyre (Tyre means a rocky place ) and Sidon (Means a Fishery ). 22 And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed." 23 But He answered her not a word. And His disciples came and urged Him, saying, "Send her away, for she cries out after us." 24 But He answered and said, January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 11 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

13 "I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." 25 Then she came and worshiped Him, saying, "Lord, help me!" 26 But He answered and said, "It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs." 27 And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table." 28 Then Jesus answered and said to her, "O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire." And her daughter was healed from that very hour. (Notice that the woman had been diligently in watching for Him, for she was from where He was going to, and she came out to greet Him and seek His power over the demons that had entered into her family). The Key to Grace is Faith, Trust, and Asking in Unselfishness This is an important teaching example that the Lord is giving us with this Canaanite woman. Even though she did not know the Words of God and the Promises that they contain, she was doing the way of the Words. Thus she qualified for the healing that she desired. She enabled the work by the Father to be done for her. She did not have the knowledge of His Words, but the Lord tries to show us the way when He says Great is says to her that Great is her Faith. In the chart you are able to see that the Bible reveals that our Faith is a result of the Words that we hear. If we would have listened more carefully to what the Lord tells this Canaanite woman, we would have been able to find the way of His Words. For the Lord is saying that her healing was a result of the faith that she had. Even though it is crumbs compared to all of the knowledge and power that is available to us, it was great because the lady used all of knowledge of the way of the works of the Lord that she had. In this she was blessed with the favor of God, and she was qualified for she trusted God and she was asking a healing for others who were precious in her heart. The Canaanite Lady was in the process of diligently seeking Good to the fullness of the limit of her learned knowledge given from her religious authorities and from her own thinking; thus, per Proverbs 11:27 she fulfilled the way of the Lord to find favor in the sight of God. If we do Good Works for others with the willful intent and purpose of seeking God s favor to obtain something we desire, then we have no Grace due to us. For the Lord taught us that we are not to ask of Him for the things we desire. Rather we are to trust in Him to provide us by His Grace all the things that He knows is what is the best for us to receive to do the work that He desires for us to accomplish in Him. Any other way of coming to the Lord is asking in amiss of the way and the will of the Lord (James 4:2-3). You have to trust the Lord for He says that He clothed the flowers of the field and know by Faith that He, as our Father, would better cloth His own child. Proverbs 11:27 He who diligently seeks Good finds favor (God s Grace is God s Favor). Deuteronomy 29:9 Therefore keep the Words of this covenant (The 153 Words of God are what truly made the Covenant, for they are God and we are to first love the Father with all of our heart and with all of our soul and with all our mind), and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do. The Lord showed us in this miracle of the Canaanite woman why we have had hit and miss miracles since the time of the Apostles. When miracles occur, we are enabling them by an accidental way. It is the desire of the Lord to help us and to show us His power. He delights in doing so. Clearly the fact that the people recognized at the Pool that when an angel stirred the water, that if they were the first into the water then they would be healed. That is a miracle by the way of His Law of Promise that is within His Word Water and also notice that there were five porches that surrounded this pool. The Lord did not have to provide this miracle, for clearly He did so by sending forth the Angel to stir the Water. It reveals to us that it is the desire of the Lord that we always have healing accessible to us. We have seen this throughout the world by those who would truly believe on Him and His power over the elements. In the days of Jesus there were no miraculous hospitals as there are today. Those people who sat by that pool depended upon that pool and the miracles the Lord would provide there. In those January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 12 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

14 days the Words had not been opened until Jesus came forth. The knowledge of the Lord s Word and the belief in His promises enabled the healings. Because of His Mercy, the Lord provided the setting for the healings, even without the people having knowledge of His Words. This is why we have had miracles, especially in places like Africa. In Africa, most people had no other options but the Lord, so they believe deeper in the Promises of the Lord than do the typical Americans. I believe that the Father poured out His Grace upon those people by sending one of His Holy Angels to stir the waters of the Pool because the Priests of Israel had failed to provide the revealing of the knowledge of His Words to these people. If they had the knowledge of His Words then these people could likely have been healed in numerous other ways. They would not have been limited to waiting around the pool to be healed. The Lord desires to pour out His Grace, but the Priests remove the access from the people by teaching their own Words and not His. In fact the very presence of so many sick and lame should have caused a light bulb to go off in the minds of the Priests and Rabbi s that they had missed the message of the Lord. The Lord saw the man was diligently seeking the way of God at the Pool that is by the Sheep Gate. In this Writing we have reviewed that the Words of God were supposed to be placed upon the Gates. It was the Priests and Rulers responsibility to insure that the Words of God were found upon those Gates, but the Priests and Rulers had failed the people (His sheep) in the same manner that we fail the people today by not having His Words on our Gates and the posts of our Doors of our churches as the Law of God commands us to do. Jesus came and interceded due to the failure of what the Priests and Rabbis did not do. Mark 10: And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, "Who then can be saved?" 27 But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God (Meaning with His Words) all things are possible." (God is Spirit and His Words are Spirit, and thus, all things are possible when we receive His Words and increase I the knowledge of God by His Words so that we can enable His Good Works). 28 Then Peter began to say to Him, "See, we have left all and followed You." 29 So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the Good News, 30 who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time--houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions--and in the age to come, eternal life. 31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first." Jeremiah 33:3 Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and inaccessible things, which you do not know. (In Proverbs 1:23 we are to call out to Him for knowledge and He will pour out his Spirit, the spirit of Truth, on us and He will make known His Words to us, and by His Words all things are possible John 16:13). If We Are Diligent to Seek, We Shall Find Grace in His Words You may also remember that Jesus saw that the man was faithful to seek God s way of healing, and he had remained there diligently seeking the miracle, even after failing many times to be fast enough to struggle into the water when he saw the stirring. For the Lord always gives Grace for grace when it is done with a sincere heart. The angel could come there because the pool was at the sheep gate and known of the invited shepherds were tending to the needs of this flock. How simple would it have been for a Priest or Rabbi to wait with this man and help him into the water, as the time of day was even known as to when the Holy Angel would come and stir the water? Jesus put the Priests to enable the healing of all of these people, and not to have to wait for an angel to stir the water of the pool. God is willing but His people are rebellious, and they are even more so today. Also, do not forget that the Night is coming when there will be no angels stirring up waters for those who would not hear Him. John 5: After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches. 3 In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water. 4 For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirred up the water; then whoever stepped in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of whatever disease he had. 5 Now a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, "Do you want to be made well?" 7 The sick man answered Him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me." 8 Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your bed and walk." 9 And immediately the man was made well, took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the Sabbath. 10 The Jews therefore said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed." 11 He answered them, "He who made me well said to me, 'Take up your bed and walk.'" 12 Then they asked him, "Who is the Man who said to you, 'Take up your bed and walk'?" (The purpose of the Sabbath Day is to rest in the Word of God and to increase in knowledge. The Knowledge of God makes you strong and miracles give testimony to God and it strengthens the faith of others. When the man was told by Jesus to pick up your bed and walk the Lord was having the man give Glory to the Father by doing the way of the Word of God Rest. The symbol of the bed signified the resting and the carrying of the bed symbolized the growth in strength by the Word of God. So Jesus was having this man speak the Words of God as they are known and seen in heaven. Thus Jesus was in now way doing against the law of the Sabbath, but rather He was Glorifying the Words of God on the Sabbath in the eyes of man). 13 But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place. 14 Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you." 15 The man departed and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well. The Lord s yoke is easy and His burden is Light (We are required to receive His Words, increase in knowledge of God and do Good deeds for others. That is the burden of the Lord Hosea 6:6 and Micah 6:8; and we are to walk Justly). The yoke of the Lord for us to learn of His ways for us to do His Words so that we can enable Good Works to be done for others, is easy. The Lord wants to heal His people and to help them, but it would be so much easier if we would January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 13 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

15 just listen with our ears and see with our eyes. Remember that the Lord also made this response to the Roman Centurion Officer who came to the Lord and then told the Lord it was not necessary for Him to travel to his house, for the Word of the Lord was enough to accomplish for he recognized that the Lord had authority over the Words of healing that He spoke. In that case the Lord again tries to help us to understand for He says that He had not seen such faith in all of the people of Israel. The Lord then warns that there are many scholars of the Bible yet they do not understand the simplicity of the way of His Words as this man of Rome. This man was a soldier for Rome and he understood that God had sent Jesus, and therefore He had the authority to speak on behalf of the Father, and that His Word would be done as He commanded it. Jesus says that they are many Bible scholars, learned men of the Bible, who cannot see His Words and their authority, and they will be cast out into the Outer Darkness because they do not believe in His Words that He speaks. The Lord says go your way, and as you have believed in the way of the words that He had spoken, so let it be done for him. Consider that the Lord is saying that it is to be done in the way of the words that this man spoke, as how he believed. This is how a soldier of the Lord should speak and believe. For they should speak the Words their Master Jesus speaks to them and to do exactly what He said to do. This account tells us that much is possible if people will be obedient to the way of His Words and seek to do the way of His Words as this Roman Centurion did. The Lord made it clear that he faith of the Roman healed his son when he came to one having authority in the Word of God. This way has never been closed, but people have to be wise enough to understand the way that Jesus has shown them to walk and they must have faith in His Words and faith in the authority that is given in His Words. Matthew 8: Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him, 6 saying, "Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented." 7 And Jesus said to him, "I will come and heal him." 8 The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed. 9 For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it." 10 When Jesus heard it, He marveled, (Consider that this man was doing the Way of the Promise of God that is in His Word that is Word. This is the spoken Word by authority when it is given to the Glory of the Father by way of Testimony. This man was teaching others and doing this to give Glory too the authority of God s Word over all elements (particles and sub-atomic particles) for the Good of another. It is not enough just to speak it, but to do so for the Glory of the Father in front of others for doing His Good Work, and for doing it for another and not yourself. An example of the opposite of this is the Lord s healing the Leper in Matthew 8:1-4. There the leper was asking of the Lord for his own cleansing. The Lord healed the man but he told this man to go to the Temple and give the appropriate gift as a testimony to the healing. There should be Glory given to the Lord in some way when you are asking the Lord for your own healing. Secondly, the leper has no one near to them as they were repulsive to others) and said to those who followed, "Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel! 11 And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. 12 But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." 13 Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you." And his servant was healed that same hour. John 20: Then Jesus said to them again, Peace to you! As the Father sent Me, I also send you. 22 And when He had said that this, He breathed on them, and said to them, Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any they are retained. John 3:34 Whoever does accept His testimony attests that God is true; for He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God grants the Spirit only in full measure. If Our Ears are Not Opened We Shall Not Find the Grace in His Words There have been many prophesies over the last 12 months in where the Lord has spoken through prophets, preachers and evangelists that they are to increase in the knowledge of His Words and the knowledge of God. Yet why are these people not seeking out His Words? They continue to believe that they entire Bible is the Words of God and is the Spirit of God. The entire Bible was written by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit; but the entire Bible is not what is referred to as His Words. The Lord says God is Spirit and His Words are Spirit, thus it is the Words of God that are the Spirit of God. His Words are not the entire Bible, they are the 153 Words of God that He has given to us to use to present God to man. For God is His Words. We should obey the instructions of God to seek His Word and to increase in the knowledge of God, for we are missing it completely. If these prophets, preachers, evangelists and pastors would awaken and anoint their eyes with the oil of heaven then they would begin to understand the true way to find the Grace of God. The Language of Heaven and the language of Angels that Jesus spoke are not the same as speaking in the unknown tongues of earthly languages that is prevalent in churches of today. The testimony of John the Baptist is that Jesus spoke the language of heaven and nowhere does it record that Jesus spoke in unknown tongues. He spoke the Words of God and that is the Language of Heaven and the Language of Angels. For the Angels said that they are the keepers of the Words of His Bible, and there is not speaking tongues in the Bible. I do not say that speaking in unknown tongues is not of God, but I do say that this is not the heavenly language that Jesus spoke, and it is not the higher language of heaven that God desires us to obtain, and that Paul tells us to seek. Paul repeatedly exhorts us to seek the understanding of the Words of God and the knowledge of Truth - the Word of Truth. The Words of God is the higher language of God and they are also the secret that unlocks the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, and opens the door to greater gifts of Grace for us. January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 14 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

16 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Proverbs 12:1 Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid. Proverbs 12:15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but he who heeds counsel is wise. 1 Corinthians 14: I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all; 19 yet in the church I would rather speak five Words with understanding, that I may teach others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue. 20 Brethern, do not be children in Understanding; however, in malice be babes, but in understanding be mature. To effectively understand the Grace of God, we need to have the comfort of the true value of His Words. They are given to us with value, and therefore we can think of them like the Lord depositing them with us, as if we are receiving coins of currency. In the Bible the Lord provides us with parables that reveals He has given us Talents of money value (Matthew 25:14-30); and He expects us to use them to gain greater value with our use of them. How are His Words valuable? First we must understand that all things were created by these spoken Words, so they have great power, and they have supernatural order over the physical elements, even the winds and clouds everything in all the universes and beyond. Secondly, the Lord tells us in John 6:63 that His Words are Supernatural because they are Spirit and they are Life, meaning they are alive, for in John 3:34 we are told God (Since God is Spirit John 4:23-24), He resides in His Words in His full measure of His Promised Commandment Works that the Spirit will carry out without fail. Thirdly, we also have to understand that the Words of God are Prophetic Words. Since all things exist and consist from His spoken Words, it means that within those Words the ordained future will of God has been recorded within them from the beginning of Creation. This is why Jesus reveals to us in John 16:13 that when the Spirit of Truth has come He will guide us into all Truth, and that He will tell us of things to come. Take note that the Lord is revealing to us that those two items are irreversibly linked. In John 16:13, the Lord is saying that the Words of God that are revealed by the Spirit of Truth, does two things: (1) He reveals Understanding of all things; and (2) He reveals things that are to come. Therefore, we are enabled to understand that when the Words of God are opened ot us we then are able to Prophesy. Prophesy is the revelation of things to come told to us by the Lord through revelation of the Spirit. Because the Words of God open to us Understanding of the Scriptures, we are able to understand the things that the Scriptures reveal to us will occur. These things are not discernable by man without the knowledge of His Words that opens to us the Understanding of the things that are to come. Perhaps by this you are now able to understand the reason that the Lord had the angel instruct the apostle John in Revelation 22:10 that he was not to seal the Words of the Prophesy of this Book (Bible). The Words of God are in fact Words of Prophesy that teaches to us the ways of God and also reveals to us things that are to come. These two are not separable because the entire Bible was written in Parables and these Parables reveal the plan of God, and that plan is not stagnant, it is forever, and thus His Words are always prophetic as well as timely. John 16: However, WHEN He, the Spirit of Truth (The Spirit of Truth is sent to open His Words and to make known His Words that are called Truth, and gives understanding of all things Proverbs 1:23. The Spirit of Truth can be in us until the Words of Truth are opened to us in their fullness and with authority. They have been opened to us, but until now the Father had not given the authority of the Father for the Spirit of Truth to stir us up and make His Words known to us and for the Father to come and to dwell within us), has come, He will guide you into all Truth; for He will not speak on His own, but whatever He hears He will speak; AND He will tell you things to come. 14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. 15 All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you. (The Words of God always come with Prophetic understanding, for they reveal the things that are to come that are hidden openly in the Parables within the Scriptures. Those they are inherently Words of Prophesy. It is God s Grace being poured out on us that we are now able to understand things that are to come so that we shall desire to receive His Words and increase in the Knowledge of God that we may do Good works and to escape the things to come, giving Glory to the Lord through our Faith that is founded within His Words, and that we show our love for God by desiring to stand in front of Him as soon as possible, rather than to love to be in the world). Revelation 22: Then he said to me, "These Words are faithful and true." And the Lord God of the holy prophets (Holy Prophets are those prophets whom have received the knowledge of His 153 Words; for it is His Words that are Holy) sent His angel to show His servants the things which must shortly take place. 7 "Behold, I am coming quickly! Blessed is he who keeps the Words of the prophecy of this book." 8 Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things. 9 Then he said to me, "See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the Words of this book. Worship God." 10 And he said to me, "DO NOT SEAL the Words of the Prophecy of this Book, for the Time is at hand. (His Words have been opened to us all this time if we would have sought them out on our own. The time had not yet come until when the Father ordained that His Words would be opened to the Gentiles. Then it was given by the Spirit to open His Words, but until then no man had successfully sought them out of his own accord. We could have opened His Words, but we all failed to do so. Now they are not only opened to us, but since the time of November 2006, the Spirit of Truth is now at work to call directly upon the spirit of man in the heart of the people to stir them that when they hear His teachings that they will desire to come to understanding. The wise shall hear Him and they shall receive of His food). Speaking in Tongues is Not The Language of Heaven it is A Language of Heaven Let me address what may be an issue for you that is to understand the difference that speaking in the gift of unknown tongues is not the language of heaven, but it is a language of heaven. Remember that the Lord God created all things, inclusive of all languages, so every language comes forth from heaven, but some languages are sent from heaven for use of communicating with those on the earth. The language of unknown tongues is sent forth January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 15 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

17 by the Spirit to allow us to communicate with the Father to make our prayers known in heaven, and to do the prayers of spiritual warfare in the heavenlies. The Words of God are different, for the Spirit of God is in His Words in the full measure of God. His Words are The Language of Heaven. His Words are supernatural for they are given with the Promises of God indwelling within them from the time of Creation. According to Isaiah 51:16 and Proverbs 8:30, the Words of God were the first language that was in Heaven before the earth existed. His Words existed before God created man and gave to man earthly languages to speak. The Lord has opened His Words to enable us to do the Way of the Promises of His Words so that we are able by Faith according to our knowledge of God to enable the Father to do His Good Works or us as we desire and when we ask of Him within the Will of God. The Words of God also contain the wisdom and understanding of God, inclusive of things that are to come, and that is Prophesy, so they are His true Words of Understanding that are spoken those whom He has made wise by His Spirit. Isaiah 51:16 And I have put My Words in your mouth, And I have covered you in the shadow of My hand, That I may plant the heavens (Meaning before the stars), and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, thou art My people. The Disciples were certainly given a special gift of speaking in other foreign tongues at the time of Pentecost. I had always thought that the interpretation of that event was that they were given the knowledge of the languages of other peoples and were able to speak them. But, that is not what the Bible actually records. The Bible says that the disciples spoke and what they spoke was heard by anyone who listened in their own native language. That is a very special work fo the Spirit. God created all languages, therefore it is not impossible for the Lord to take the Words that you speak in English, and enable others to hear in their ears the same message of their own language, i.e. French, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, or Greek, etc. The Lord created all languages and He can empower your voice to be heard in any language that He so desires. This sounds strange, but a friend of mine, Mr. John Westfall, actually witnessed this very miracle in the Fareast. He was present when a missionary spoke to a person in English and the person heard perfectly what was being said in her own Asian language. This miracle brought about several converts at that occasion. This is a different way of speaking than the ways of the Heavenly Language of the Words of God, as well as being different than enabling the Spirit to fall upon you and for you own voice to utter words in an unknown tongue that is not understood by you. Unknown Tongues are sometimes spoken in prophesy and in such cases the Lord will typically cause the Spirit to reveal the understanding of that prophetic message through another person, usually being a Spiritual Leader or deacon. I categorize that not as a language, but as being one of the ways that the Lord reveals His Prophetic Word and Prophecies. This is not a way of general communication for teaching the Word of God through the use of language. Acts: When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 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. 3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. (The Spirit gave them understanding as to what to do with the other languages, and they boldly went forth outside in front of all the Jews gathered from the many nations into the streets of Jerusalem for Pentecost, and without doubt, shame or fear, they spoke in those languages that the Spirit gave them to utter). 5 And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven. 6 And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language. 7 Then they were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, "Look, are not all these who speak Galileans? 8 And how is it that we hear, each in our own language in which we were born? 9 Parthians and Medes and Elamites, those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, 11 Cretans and Arabs--we hear them speaking in our own tongues the wonderful works of God." (This is the Miracle of the tongues of Pentecost, they were speaking in unknown tongues about the wonderful WORKS of God by revealing the way of the Mighty Words of God). 12 So they were all amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, "Whatever could this mean?" The apostle Paul, in 1 Corinthians chapters 12 through 14, references the difference between the gifts of His Words of Understanding and of unknown tongues. The Lord made all languages, as is made clear in Genesis 11:1-9, when He created new languages to confuse the earth from the power of the voice. (The spoken Words of His voice is in itself the scientific key to all of physical creation. For a voice is of particular frequencies, with effective energy, and spoke forth for a given targeted purpose). Paul reveals that the Lord has given the gift of speaking in unknown tongues as a way to pray to the Father in the Spirit for a cause that is trusted by us to be the desire by the Lord for us. We trust the Spirit to guide us that this unknown tongue is an effective work for the Lord. However, Paul explains that the gift of the unknown tongues is not for everyone. Paul also reveals that the gift of the unknown tongues is not to be desired over that of effective Prophesy. Words of Prophesy that are desired are the Words of Teaching, and that is by the Words of Understanding, and the Words of Understanding are the Words of God, as is made clear by Psalm 119:130. There are Prophetic Words that prophets receive; but Paul defines that there are Words of Understanding, and in 1 Corinthians 14:19 the apostle says that in a church he would rather speak five Words of Understanding that he has received from the Lord, than ten thousand words of unknown tongues that he receives by way of the Spirit. For the Words of Understanding give the Knowledge of God to the people to whom they are taught (Proverbs 9:10). Further, we are told that Jesus came into the world to speak the Words of God that are spoken in the language of heaven, and at no time is it recorded that Jesus spoke in unknown tongues such that the people could not understand January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 16 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

18 Him. For the Lord our God is not a God of confusion, but He is a God of edification. The Words of God do not confuse us, but rather they are given to reveal deeper understanding of the knowledge of the Works, the Way, and the Will, of God. You can understand this if you carefully read the 12 th through the 14 th chapters of 1 Corinthians, after you have a little background foundation of the revelation of the Words of God. 1 Corinthians 14: Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. 2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the Spirit he speaks mysteries. 3 But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. (Speaking the Words of God is also speaking His Prophesies for His Words unveil Prophesy and Open the Mysteries of Parables, revealing things that are to come) 4 He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church. 5 I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification. 6 But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching? (In Psalm 119:130, we are told that it is by the Entrance of His Words that we receive Understanding, and Proverbs 9:10 tells us that Understanding is Knowledge of the Holy One, and He is His Words). 7 Even things without life, whether flute or harp, when they make a sound, unless they make a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is piped or played? 8 For if the trumpet makes an uncertain sound, who will prepare for battle? 9 So likewise you, unless you utter by the tongue words easy to understand, how will it be known what is spoken? For you will be speaking into the air. 10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of languages in the world, and none of them is without significance. 11 Therefore, if I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be a foreigner to him who speaks, and he who speaks will be a foreigner to me. 12 Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel. 13 Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret. 14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the Spirit, and I will also pray with the Understanding (Paul prays with the Knowledge of His Words so that he is able to obtain instruction of how to enable the Father to do Good Works for others. That is the way of the prayers of one who has understanding and who has been made wise of the mysteries of the Kingdom). I will sing with the Spirit, and I will also sing with the Understanding. 16 Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say? 17 For you indeed give thanks well, but the other is not edified. 18 I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all; 19 yet in the church I would rather speak five words with my Understanding, that I may teach others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue. (Again, in Psalm 119:130, we are told that it is by the entrance of His Words that we receive Understanding, and Proverbs 9:10 tells us that Understanding is Knowledge of the Holy One, and He is His Words. In 2 Corinthians 12:1-4 Paul reveals that He received the Words by the supernatural vision given to Him by God when he was taken up to Paradise that is in the third heaven and he heard the Words unlawful for man to utter. Remember that the Words were closed up, and that the Parables of the Bible were sealed up until the time of the Lord for the Jews, and until the fullness of the time of the Gentiles, for the Gentiles. Now the Lord has opened His Words to the Gentiles and He has unsealed the Parables of the Bible). 20 Brethren, do not be children in understanding; however, in malice be babes, but in understanding be mature. 21 In the law it is written: "With men of other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; and yet, for all that, they will not hear Me," says the Lord. 22 Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophesying is not for unbelievers but for those who believe. 23 Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind? 24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all. 25 And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you. 26 How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification. 27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret. 28 But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in church, and let him speak to himself and to God. 29 Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge. 30 But if anything is revealed to another who sits by, let the first keep silent. 31 For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged. 32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. 33 For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. 33 For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. 34 Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says. 35 And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church. 36 Or did the Word of God come originally from you? Or was it you only that it reached? (Be careful to understand that we must understand that this Bible book of 1 Corinthians was written to those who had received the true meaning of the Cross that Jesus died on the Cross so that He could open for us the Wisdom of God that is the Words of God that unlocks all knowledge of God. This is made clear in 1 Corinthians chapter 1. You are able to see in 1 Corinthians 1:30 that Jesus died on the Cross to open the Wisdom of God for us). 37 If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord. 38 But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant. (In other words, if they will not receive the Words of Understanding the Words of God, then let their actions judge them. For it is His Words that judge us). 39 Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues. 40 Let all things be done decently and in order. Isaiah 50:4-5 4 The Lord has given Me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary. He (the Father) awakens Me morning by morning, He awakens My ear to hear as the learned. 5 The Lord God has opened My ear; and I was not rebellious, nor did I turn away. Proverbs 1:2-6 To know wisdom and instruction, (is) to perceive (discern) the Words of Understanding. To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, judgment, and equity; to give prudence to the simple, to the young man knowledge and January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 17 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

19 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace discretion. A wise man WILL hear and increase learning, and a man of understanding will attain wise counsel, to understand a proverb and an interpretation (enigma), THE WORDS OF THE WISE and their puzzles ( riddles, or parables ). Matthew 7:24-27 "THEREFORE WHOEVER HEARS THESE WORDS OF MINE, AND DOES THEM, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. BUT EVERYONE WHO HEARS THESE WORDS OF MINE, AND DOES NOT DO THEM, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall." Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. (To abide means to walk in the way of ). Proverbs 10:24 The desire of the righteous will be granted. (This is the same as is stated in John 15:7). The Bible Reveals We have been Given Four Primary Types of Languages I believe that there are four basic ways that the Lord utilizes languages. If Prophesy is to be categorized as a language, then I would categorize it as additional ways of speaking. Even in Prophesy there are multiple ways that the Lord communicates His Prophetic Word remember the hand that wrote words upon the wall, for example. At this moment I am speaking of languages that the Lord has provided for our use, for our enabling Good Works, and even for our ability to perform effective spiritual warfare. These four primary types of languages are truly gifts of Favor gifts of Grace. The Lord says in 2 Timothy 3:16-17 that the Scriptures are provided to fully equip us for every Good Work. The Lord left nothing that is not provided for us, even in the ways and manner by which we are able to communicate to each other, to Him, and to Him for others. He shows us that His Grace is more than sufficient for us. We Only Receive the Words of God by His Grace, and Greater Still - His Grace Comes with Eternal Life Jesus came speaking the Words of God that give us everlasting Life. In John 6:63, Jesus said that His Words are Spirit and they are Life. John the Baptist said that if we believe in Jesus, meaning you also believe and receive the January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 18 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

20 Words of what He says, and then it is that you shall receive eternal Life because you truly believe on Him and you have the power of the promise of His Spirit within you in His Words (John 3:36). In John 8:12 the Lord Jesus Christ confirms this when He said that those who receive and keep His Words should never see Death. Death is the name of one of the prisons of God. There is the 2 nd Death, which has the same tortures and beasts of punishment as the prison that is called the 1 st Death. The first Death is alongside the Pit in the Outer Darkness, but it is above the physical location of the 2 nd Death. Whoever goes into the second Death shall never return. (I have explained the Creation in other Writings, such as The Mystery of Life and Death and the Writing The Truth ). John 6:63 The Words that I speak to you are Spirit, and they are Life. John 3:36 36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." John 8:12 Most assuredly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My Word he shall never see Death. The Lord s instructions for the way of the unlocking of the miraculous Good Works of the Father are His Grace. In John 15:3 the Lord tells us that it is His Word that sweeps us clean. Consider the miracle of the leper as it is revealed to us in Matthew 8:1-4. Again the leper is doing the right thing as per the way of His Words. He is saying to the Lord that if it is in the Will of the Lord then His Word can make him clean. Even though this leper did not have the knowledge of the Words of God, he was doing the way of the Words of God and it unlocked the promise of God that brought forth his healing. For the Lord has to agree with this statement made by the leper, as it was proclaimed within the way of the Words of God. This pouring out of the Grace of the Lord as is witnessed in this healing, also goes along with the Promise of the Lord that if we knock we shall find. The Door of the Lord is instruction of the Will of God, and it is a Law of God that His Words are to be always placed upon the posts of the Door of the Lord. As Jesus traveled He would have walked with His prayer shawl draped around Him. Thus it is that this man was asking the Lord for this healing within the wisdom of the way of the Lord, and therefore the Lord responded as in within the Promise of God that is in His Words; for the Words of God were opened when Jesus began His ministry in power and filled with the Spirit (The knowledge of His Words). We need to hear the Lord carefully, for in Matthew 13:14-15 the Lord told us that His Words are healing Words to all those who will turn, open their eyes and see, and also open their ears and hear. The Midnight Hour is coming and then there will be a Famine of His Words. Without His Words how will you find the way to His Grace? Now is the Time to be diligent to seek His Words that sweep you clean. In the Night you will cry out for them, but the Lord says He will not answer Proverbs 1: Now is the time when they are freely opened to you in all the abundance that you desire. Why do you not listen to the calling of Jesus that is confirmed by all Scriptures? WHAT JESUS SAID ABOUT ETERNAL LIFE 1. Those who believe on Him have Eternal Life. 2. Those who do not hear His Words do not have Eternal Life, for they are not of God; and, further, they will receive punishment for their rejection of His Words. John 6:47 47 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. John 3:36 36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him". John 3:16 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever BELIEVES in Him should not perish but have everlasting Life. John 6: Whoever eats My Flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For My Flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. 56 He who eats My Flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. John 10: Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me. 26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand. 30 I and My Father are one." John 8:47 He who is of God hears God s Words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God. (If you do not hear His Words, there is no Life). Deuteronomy 18: I will raise up for them a Prophet (Jesus) like you (Moses, the Law Giver) from among their brethren, and will put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. 19 And it shall be that whoever will not hear My Words, which He speaks in My name, I WILL REQUIRE IT OF HIM. Note: It is impossible to believe on Jesus if you do not believe the Words of God that He was sent into the World by the Father to speak and to do. He was sent so that we might receive His Words that unlock the mysteries of the Kingdom and fully equip us to do every Good Work and in so doing bring Glory to the Father. Further, the Father says in Deuteronomy 18:18-19 that if we do not hear His Words that Jesus will speak and believe in His Works that Jesus will do, then He will require it of us. Jesus says that if we do not eat His flesh, then we shall not have everlasting Life. The Lord is speaking of the Words that He has received from heaven, for His Words are food because all things exist and consist from His spoken Words. In His Words is God and in His Words is Life. This is confirmed in Proverbs 8:35 for the Lord says that whoever finds wisdom (Understanding) finds Life. January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 19 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

21 John 15:3 You are already clean because of the Word which I have spoken to you. (His Words come with the power to forgive sin, thus they have the power the acceptable sacrifice to make you clean if you continue to walk in them John 20:23) Matthew 8:1-4 1 When He had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him. 2 And behold, a leper came and worshiped Him, saying, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean." 3 Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, "I am willing; be cleansed." Immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus said to him, "See that you tell no one; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them." Luke 11:9 And I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7-8 7 Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Luke 11:9,10 9 And I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Luke 12: "And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. 30 For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. 31 But seek the Kingdom of God (The Kingdom of God is the Words of God that are inside you, for you have heard them and read them, but you do not know them. The Lord is saying to harvest that Words that have already been sown in you), and all these things shall be added to you. 32 "Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father's Good pleasure to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys. 34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Isaiah 55:1-13 Pause, everyone who is thirsty, come to the waters, and he who has no money, come, buy and eat; yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price (The Food of His Word that He pours out to all who will believe Him). Why do you spend money for what is not bread and your labor for what never satisfies? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good; let your soul delight itself in abundance. Incline your ear and come to Me; hear, and your soul shall live; January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 20 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

22 and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the unfailing mercies to David. Behold, I made Him a witness to the people, a leader and a commander of the nations. Surely, you shall call a nation that you do not know, and peoples that did not know you shall run to you because of the Lord your God and for the Holy One of Israel, for He has glorified you. Seek the Lord while He may be found. Call upon Him while He is near! (Remember that the Time of Night is coming when no unworthy man will find Him for there will be a famine of the Word Amos 8:11). Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his schemings; let him return to the Lord, and He will have mercy on him, to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return thither, but water the earth and make it bring forth and bud and so give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My word be, which goes forth from My mouth; it shall not come back to Me uselessly, but it shall do what I purpose and accomplish what I commissioned it. For you shall go out with joy and be led forth in Peace (the name of the Eternal Heaven), the mountains and the hills breaking out in song before you and all the trees of the field (the Saints) clapping their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress; instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle; and they shall be to the Lord for His renown, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off. We Seem to Miss the Truth in the Way of Understanding His Blessings In Psalm 14:2-3 the Lord says that He is always looking down to see if anyone understands and to see if anyone DOES Good, and sadly we are told that not one understands and not one does Good. In Hosea 6:6 and in Micah 6:8 we are told that it the things that are required of us are to increase in Knowledge of God and to diligently seek to do Good, as well as to walk justly. Psalm 14:2-3, & Psalm 53:2-3 2 The Lord looks down from Heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, WHO SEEK GOD. 3 They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none that does GOOD, no, not one. Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Micah 6:8 8 He has shown you, O man, what is Good; and WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU BUT TO DO JUSTLY, TO LOVE GOOD DEEDS, AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR GOD? Since we are told in Proverbs 11:27 that it is those who diligently seek Good that are those who find His favor. We thus have God s answer as to why we are not able to reach the heights of releasing His mighty miracle works, as we desire. Those who desire to become miracle workers, as like His disciples became, must come to follow the Lord diligently to seek His teaching of His Words and of His Ways. Then we must go and be like His disciples who followed His teaching diligently and we must hear Him speak His Words and unlock for us the Understanding of His Ways of enabling His Promises that are in His Words. We all see that the multitudes are ready and that the Harvest is very great, but the need for His miracles is even greater. We have to go back to the basics of the knowledge of God and become like His disciples. Jesus gave His disciples the way of His teaching when He spoke to them at what is called the Sermon on the Mount. That Sermon is clearly for us as well, as it is a sermon that tells us to take action to diligently seek after the knowledge of His Good, and He promises that if we do, then our diligence will be rewarded with what we are truly seeking. We should be able to see that the key to His blessing begins with hearing His Words so that we are able to increase in Knowledge of Him and then proceed to be able to enable Him to do His Good Works as we ask of Him within our understanding of His Will. That is the key to rightly dividing the Word of Truth and to understanding this message of the Sermon on the Mount. Matthew 5: And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying: 3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit (Meaning that they are not so filled with the wealth and Babylonian theology beliefs of this day, thus they are open to hear the Words of God that are the Kingdom of Heaven) For theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven (These shall receive the Words of God and by the Lord s prophesy of Daniel 12:9-10, they shall be made wise. Consider this carefully for the Lord is saying that those who have little of the knowledge of His Words are not blocked by our own preconceived ideas of the knowledge of the way of His Spirit, for the Lord is saying that those who believe that they are rich in the Spirit are foolish if they have not received the knowledge of the Words of God. For His Words are the Spirit John 6:63, and they do not know God like they think that they do for the Lord says that God is Spirit John 4:23-24, and since He also says that His Words are Spirit, then we do not know God or the Spirit as we think we do until we have received the fullness of His Words that are Spirit. For this reason the poor in Spirit shall receive more of the Kingdom of God His Words of heaven, for they will not have their own preconceived earthly wisdom that causes men to stumble and that blocks them from receiving the Kingdom of God). 4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. (Those who grieve will find comfort. Not so long ago a minister died who had often cried continuously for the things that were going on in this nation. He was like Jeremiah the weeping prophet. Israel is going to be delivered and there was much knowledge of God gained and progress made for His people for the mourning that these men did before the Lord. The Lord is about to deliver America from the hands of those of control the people who walk in the way the city of Babylon. The many who have wept before God for her deliverance will then be comforted. Israel will soon be delivered, and their people will be comforted). 5 Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. (We often miss out on the meaning of the meek. The meek include those who are depressed who are depressed because of other people will not hear God s Words; or those who cry out for justice to come back to the nation and for the Laws of God to be upheld, and those who weep because over 45 million babies given of God as an inheritance to this nation, have been exterminated in America s abortion mills. It is the meek who cry over the maimed soldiers coming back from a war whose purposes are secretly cloaked by the deceit of the nation s leaders January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 21 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

23 without the knowledge of the people of the nation. These are the meek that God loves, for it is these people who will cause the land to be delivered into the will of God. We see this in Ezekiel 36 when the Lord reveals that it will be after the people of Israel turn to Him and receive His Words that He will deliver the nation from its enemies). 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled (Per Proverbs 1:23, He will pour out His Spirit on all those who seek His Words, and they will be made to know His Words. These prayer intercessors who hunger to see people healed and who desire to see the lame walk and the maimed to be restored, are those who seek after Righteousness. For Righteousness is the knowledge of the Words of God that teaches us the Understanding of how to walk in the way of the Lord so that we are able to enable Good Works to be done for others as they ask this of God). 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. (The action of giving mercy is an automatic promise of God. In America we often do not understand why we do not receive the Mercy of God; for we fail to see that as a nation we do not walk justly. Those who give mercy are walking justly. That is separated from diligently seeking Good. The Lord requires us to walk justly, meaning that He requires of us to give Mercy and walk in the way of earthly Truth. To give Mercy is different than giving Grace. Mercy is required of us by God, while giving favors (Grace) is one that God desires for us to do). 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God (Jesus said that it His Word that makes us clean. God is Spirit and His Words are Spirit, thus, it is these who are pure in heart who will receive His Words and understanding; and they will see God by doing His Words so that they can see the works of God). 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. (The eternal heaven is called Peace. Those whom you teach the Words of God and they receive His Words, are also given the promise to be raised up to eternal life in the eternal heaven that is called Peace to live and reign with Christ. Thus the teachers of His Words are the Peacemakers, and they are Sons of God for they do what is the Will of the Father, and this is as Jesus did, and they are guaranteed Eternal Life by keeping His Word). 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (The Kingdom of Heaven is the Words of God, and in heaven the Words of God are spoken. Abraham did the way of the Words of God, and it was accounted unto him as Righteousness, and Jesus is the way of Justice and Righteousness, and He is the revealer of His Words. If we will be persecuted for teaching His Words, we can know that we are blessed, for with His Words comes the unbreakable promise of Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven). 11 "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. (No explanation is truly needed; but as an example of persecution for His name, I can say that I have some knowledge. National leaders have discredited me in attempts at covering the revelation of their secret deceit and sins against the people of this nation. I have been called a false teacher, and I have been hated for diligently seeking to bring forth the Words of God that is the salvation of His people. But the Lord promises that He will cause this work to be completed no matter what happens). 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you (Those who receive His Words will understand things to come as prophets, for the Lord says in John 16:13 that the Spirit of Truth will guide them in things to come). As we see in examples such as Colossians 2:1-3, Paul and the other disciples rejoiced that their Writings would be known by us and would help us to grow in the knowledge of the Words of God. They rejoiced that they could help us in these last days to straighten out our way and be able to begin to walk in the Way of the Lord on the narrow path that is by the way of His Words, as like Jesus said that we need to rid ourselves of the teachings of the man of this world, and focus on His teachings so that we are capable of going through the eye of the needle gate. Colossians 2:1-3 1 For I want you to know what a great conflict I have for you and those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh, 2 that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God (It is through the entrance of His Words that we are given His Spirit and we obtain Understanding Psalm 119:130), both of the Father (His Words) and of Christ (The Teacher of His Words and the instructor of His Ways), 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. 4 Now this I say lest anyone should deceive you with persuasive words (People try to deceive you with their own wisdom and words instead of teaching you God s Words that are state clearly within the Bible. Such as they try to teach you that the rider of the 1 st Seal Judgment horse is the Antichrist, or that no one knows the signs of the times; or they try to tell you that Jesus was rich and owned houses, or that Jesus had an affair with Mary Magdalene, etc. These are all lies of the Devil that are not in the Bible). 5 For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your Good order and the steadfastness of your Faith in Christ (Faith in Christ is shown by hearing and doing His Words that He was sent into the world to unveil to us. Paul gave us his teachings that opens to us His Words and His Words are Spirit, and in this Paul rejoices for he gave to us help in finding the key to the Lord). 6 As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him (You received Jesus in His Words for He is Truth and you are to walk in the knowledge of the Truth and you are to give grace to receive His Grace), 7 rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith (In His Words as His Words are Faith, and Faith comes by receiving His Words), as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. His Spirit of Truth Makes Known All Truth and Tells us Of Things to Come His Grace is also testified to when the Lord pours out His Spirit upon us and opens for us knowledge of Himself and of His Father that has been secret and hidden from us. If we will hear Him and see with our eyes that we have missed the boat, and that we have not discerned that the Bible was written in two languages utilizing the same Words and the same sayings, but having two similar, yet different meanings, then we are close to the knowledge of the Truth and having God to come and dwell in us. His Words are Truth and the Spirit is Truth and the Lord is Truth and He is the God of Truth. The Lord told us that the Spirit of Truth would come to us when His Words are opened to us and we receive them.

24 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace John 16: However, WHEN He, the Spirit of Truth (The Spirit of Truth is sent to open His Words and to make known His Words that are called Truth, and gives understanding of all things Proverbs 1:23), HAS COME, He will guide you into all Truth; for He will not speak on His own, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. 14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. 15 All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you. John 14:10 The Words which I speak to you I do not speak from Myself, but the Father who abides in Me, He does the works. John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. John 14: Jesus said to him, Have I been with you so log, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father, so how can you say, Show us the Father? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in Me? The Words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority, but the Father who dwells in Me DOES THE WORKS. (The Father is in His Words that Jesus had within Him). 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. 12 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it. To Understand the Fullness of Grace, We Should Understand Truth The disciple John told us in John 1:17 that Grace and Truth came by Jesus. It may help to understand Grace more fully if we have a better understanding of the heavenly language meaning of Truth. If we understand the meaning of Truth, we can more easily grasp the fullness of the meaning of Grace. We should see this when we read John 3: If we seek to do Good for others, we are deserving of His Grace. If we consider this passage carefully we will see that the Truth of God is different than what we might consider it to be. The Truth of God is His Words in which all things exists, whether those things are Created physical things, or whether they are spoken words and teachings. We need to learn the fullness of God s Truth, and the beginning of this is not to resist His Words. Those who resist receiving His Words are rejecting the Light of God. Psalm 119:130 The Entrance of Your Words Give Light; It gives Understanding to the Simple. John 3: For everyone practicing evil hates the Light and does not come to the Light (His Words), lest his deeds should be exposed. 21 But he who does the Truth comes to the Light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God. What is the fullness of God s Truth? To King David and the prophet Daniel it was revealed to us that all the Works of God are Truth, and that all His Works are in Truth. Thus, the Kingdom of God is Truth, as God is the Creator and ruler over all things. This also means that all of the entire Creation is called by the name of Truth. This is easier to understand when we remember that John said in John 1:3 that all things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. Jesus even testified in John 18:37 that He was the King of a Kingdom that is called Truth. This is further clarified in Colossians 1:15-17 the apostle Paul reveals to us that everything continues to exist and consist by Jesus. In John 14:6 Jesus says that He is the Truth, and thus, we can understand that all things exist in His Creation that is called Truth, and that Jesus and the Father, who are One, is the King of a Kingdom that is called Truth. John 18: Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called Jesus, and said to Him, Are You the King of the Jews? 34 Jesus answered him, Are you speaking for yourself on this, or did others tell you this about Me? 35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What have you done? 36 Jesus answered, My Kingdom is not of this World. If My Kingdom was of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My Kingdom is not from here. 37 Pilate therefore said to Him, Are you a King then? Jesus answered, You say rightly that I am a King. (Truth is greater than the world, as He came into the world, and thus Truth is beyond the world, and therefore the world is within His Truth) For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the Truth. Everyone who is of the Truth hears my voice. 38 Pilate said to Him, What is Truth? Psalm 33:4 For the Word of the Lord is right, and all His work is in Truth. (In His Kingdom that is called Truth) Daniel 4:37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all of whose Works are Truth, and His ways justice. And those who walk in pride He is able to put down. Psalm 119:160 The entirety of Your Word is Truth. James 1:18 Of His own will He brought us forth by the Word of Truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of His creatures. (We were brought forth by the spoken Word of God, and all creation was brought forth by the spoken Word of God, and collectively all His Words are called Truth, for David says that the entirety or the summation of all His Words is Truth ). Psalm 19: The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; Psalm 119:142 Your law is Truth. (All creation consists within His Words Colossians 1:15-17; thus, all His Words are Law as all things are ordered and ordained by His Words of Truth, and all things in Truth are ordered in accordance to His Word thus they are Law, and all His Truth is Law) January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

25 Psalm 104:30 You send forth Your Spirit and they are created. Psalm 145:18 The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in Truth. 1 John 5:6 It is the Spirit who bears witness because the Spirit is Truth. Psalm 146:5,6 Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God, Who made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps Truth forever (His Everlasting Creation is called Truth), Who executes justice for the oppressor. 1 Corinthians 1: For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the Good News, not with wisdom of words (Not the wisdom of words of man, but by the blood of Christ that purchased the Gift of God, that is the Words of God, that cleanses all man and sweeps Him clean), lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect. 18 For the message of the Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God (Jesus died to gain the authority to return and give us His Words that sweeps us clean from our sins. Until 2003 by the Mercy and Grace of the Lord our sins were covered by the blood, but now that the Knowledge of His Truth has come with the opening of His Words to everyone, our willful sins are no longer covered by the blood alone, but by seeking to do Good Hebrews 10:25-31). 19 For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent." 20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For since, in the Wisdom of God (The Wisdom of God that uses His Words to do His Works), the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. 22 For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; 23 but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, 24 but to those who are called (Those who hear His Words are those who are now called. All are called but those who will not hear His Words are not of God any longer John 8:47), both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26 For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh (Jesus flesh represents His Words John 6), not many mighty, not many noble, are called. 27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty (The words of our mouth are the weak things, but God has chosen His spoken Word to be His power); 28 and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, 29 that no flesh should glory in His presence. 30 But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption-- 31 that, as it is written, "He who glories, let January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 24 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

26 him glory in the Lord." (When we do the Way of the Words of God, within the Will of God, then we enable the Father to be Glorified in doing for us His Good Works for others as we ask them of Him, and in works these we are also glorified as the Father and the Son are Glorified). Hebrews 1:1-3 1 God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; 3 who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the Word of His power (All things are upheld by His Word of Truth), when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, Colossians 1:15-20 He (Jesus) is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on the earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in Him all fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, have made Peace (The Eternal Heaven is called His Peace This is why the Lord left to go and prepare a place for us) through the blood of His cross (By the Blood sacrifice the Lord Jesus fulfilled the plan of God, and created the Eternal Kingdom that is called Peace ). Colossians 1: For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the Knowledge of His Will in all Wisdom and Spiritual Understanding (Psalm 119:130 It is the Entrance of His Words that gives us His Light His Spirit and it is His Spirit of Truth that He pours out on us to give us this Understanding that is the knowledge of God); 10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every Good Work and increasing in the Knowledge of God (Knowledge of God is obtained through the Entrance of His Words Psalm 119:130, Proverbs 9:10, and with His Words we are able to enable the Father to do His Good Works for others as we ask it of Him); 11 strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love (His Kingdom is the Kingdom of Truth that exists in and by His spoken Words, and it includes His Eternal Heaven. His Love is an active Love a love that is testified to by His Good Works), 14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 25 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

27 forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence. Proverbs 4:1-7 Hear, my children, the instruction of a father, and give attention to know understanding; for I give you good doctrine: Do not forsake my law. When I was my father's son, tender and the only one in the sight of my mother, He also taught me, and said to me; Keep my commands, and live. Get Wisdom! Get Understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the Words of my mouth. Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; love her, and she will keep you. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. From the above verses and charts we should be able to see that the physical works of the Lord that are done through His spoken Words, and the name of His physical Kingdom is called Truth, and He and the Father are One, thus He is King over that Creation as the Father is King over that Creation.. All works that the Lord does are Truth, and the things that He speaks are also Truth. Thus we can understand that there is a difference between Truth and Grace. Grace is on one hand the gift of God in granting us the knowledge of His Words so that we have increased in the Knowledge of God so that we are able to enable His Good Works of Truth to be done. In addition Grace is also the gifting of Favors, such as it is the pleasure of God to do His Good Works for us when we have done the way of His Words and given honor and glory to His Wisdom. It is the favor of God that will resurrect us up to the eternal Life when we have repented and when we do the will of God will we live here on earth in our appointed season of time. For example it is the Grace of God that we live in this particular season of the 6,000 years, because we are living at the very end of that time, and in this day there is more ability for us to be able lay our hands upon vast resources of materials that are capable of giving us greater knowledge of God, if we will believe on Him. I have desired to reveal to you the knowledge of Truth because it will help you in ascertaining that we are truly in the last days, and that we have in fact already entered into the Day of the Lord. For the apostle Paul revealed to us in Hebrews 10:25-31 that as the Day of the Lord approached, that the Knowledge of Truth would be received. In the early part of 2003 I began the Writing of The Truth. Thus the receiving of the Knowledge of Truth was another fulfillment of the End Time Prophecies. Hebrews 10: and so much more AS YOU SEE THE DAY (Day of the Lord that is the beginning of the Time of the End) APPROACHING. 26 For IF we sin willfully AFTER We HAVE RECEIVED the KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins. 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation, which will devour the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has rejected Moses law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 Of how much worse punishment do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of Grace? 30 For we know Him who said Vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord. And again, The Lord will judge His people. 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God. In John 16:13 we are told another important factor of the End Times. The Spirit of Truth could not come in His fullness until the Knowledge of Truth has been received. It is for this reason that the Lord revealed that when the spirit of Truth has come, then He will guide you into all Truth. The knowledge of understanding the Creation is part of the guiding us into ALL Truth. Thus, since we have no understood the Creation from the Scriptures until now, it is another sign that the Day of the Lord has come. It is of interest to note that the disciples and Paul had the knowledge of the Creation. This is why it was easy for Peter to reveal the location of the prisons of God that are called Death and Tartarus, etc. It was also why it was easy for Paul to identify that He was taken to the third heaven when he was taken up to Paradise. There is an interesting text in the Writings of Jerome. Jerome criticized the knowledge of Paul and the apostles because they claimed that outside of our heavens there were Waters and that the walls of these waters hardened like stone. The point is that the disciples and Paul were absolutely correct according to the Scriptures, and this fact proves that Jerome did not have the knowledge of the Words of God. (As a side note, this is why Jerome also cannot be considered to be a Saint. Besides His Words are Truth, and He is Truth When we receive the Knowledge of Truth We have received Wisdom. And we receive Understanding: the Knowledge of God. To Hear His Words is Required of Us God is Spirit John 4:24 His Words are Spirit John 6:63 God s Word is Truth John 17:17 Jesus is the Truth John 14:6 His Spirit is Truth 1 John 5:6 Jesus speaks the Truth John 8:40 Jesus speaks the Words of God John 3:34 God is the Word John 1:1 The entirety of His Word is Truth Psalm 119:160 The entrance of His Words gives Light Psalm 119:130 God is Light 1 John 1:5 Jesus is the Light John 1:7 Jesus and God are One John 10:30 The Lord our God, The Lord is One Deuteronomy 6:4 God orders His disciples to Hear Him Matthew 17:5 Jesus says that if you do not hear His Words, then you are not of God John 8:47 January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 26 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

28 the fact that Jerome was educated in witchcraft, and that it is recorded that he wrote as a means of gaining social status, he was also not accurate in his Biblical translations. This is especially true in regard to the Creation and the End Times. Further, in several places within his writings, Jerome trampled upon the Words of God and thereby He trampled upon the Holy Spirit). John 16: However, WHEN He, the Spirit of Truth, HAS COME, HE WILL GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH; for He will not speak on His own, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. 14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. 15 All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you. It is important to understand that the Lord tells us that the Spirit of Truth cannot be within us until the Knowledge of Truth is received. His Words are Spirit, and if we do not have the knowledge of His Words Truth, then it is also not possible for the Spirit of Truth to be in us. The Spirit of Truth can be with us, but not in us. We can see this in John 14:17. The Lord tells the disciples that the Spirit of Truth was with them but was not yet in them. In Luke 24:44-45 we are told that the Lord opened His Words to them and they received the Words of God. It was then that the Spirit of truth could come and be in them. This is the Spirit that was poured out on them, and filled them, in the upper room. Contrary to all teaching, the Lord reveals to us in John 16:13 and through Hebrews 10:25-31, that the Spirit of Truth does not come into us until the Knowledge of truth is received, and we have not had the Knowledge of Truth. Thus, Spirit of Truth has been with us but He has not been in us. The Spirit of Truth is the Holy Spirit and it is only possible for it to be truly in us when we have received the Word of Truth by knowledge. So we have fooled ourselves to believe that we were rich in the Spirit when we did not know the Father who is in His Words and is the Spirit of Truth that comes in us when we receive the Words of God by knowledge. That is why the Lord warns the Church in Revelation 3:16-22 that we must be careful when we think that we are rich in the Spirit and yet we do not know God. For the Lord says in John 8:47 that if we do not hear the Words of God when they are made available to us, then we are not of God. This is the Lord commanded us to watch lest we be caught in a snare. We have the Holy Spirit with us, but not in us until we receive the Knowledge of Truth. That is based upon the Lord s Word. Take notice that in all of Paul s letters wherein he tells people that they have the Holy Spirit, that he first reveals they have received the Word of Truth. We walk around arrogantly thinking and proclaiming that we are filled with the Spirit, and we are not filled as like we think. They are other Spirits, such as the Spirit of Grace; but the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth, and the Spirit of truth is the Father in the fullness of His Words and of His Spirit. Take notice that Paul reveals in Hebrews 10:25-31 that if we ignore the knowledge of Truth then we trample upon the Spirit of Grace. Why is that? It is because the Spirit of Truth is the Spirit of the power of the works of God that are the sum of all the Promises of God. Since John reveals that Grace (Favor) is given for grace, and since it requires for us to do the Words of God to enable the Father to do His good Works for as we ask them of Him, then we would be trampling upon the Spirit of Grace if we deny the knowledge of Truth that the Father is in His Word of Truth. John 14: Thomas said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?" 6 Jesus said to him, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 7 "If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him." 8 Philip said to Him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us." 9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, 'Show us the Father'? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. 12 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it. 15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever-- 17 the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. (The Lord s Words are in us, and thus His Spirit dwells with us, but His Spirit is not known inside of us until we have received the Knowledge of Truth and enabled the Spirit of Truth that does the Good Works for us as we ask of Him). 18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. The Jews Rejected the Knowledge of Truth and It was Sent to the Gentiles The Words of God were basically hidden from the time of the Jewish leaders of Rome rejecting Paul s revelation of His Words to them, as is recorded in Acts 28: If we refuse to receive His Words then we are also refusing the keys to receive His Grace, as John counsels us in John 1-17 that His Grace is given to us as we give grace to others. Acts 28: Now when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with the soldier who guarded him. 17 And it came to pass after three days that Paul called the leaders of the Jews together. So when they had come together, he said to them: Men and brethren, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans, 18 who, when they had examined me, wanted to let me go, because there was no cause for putting me to death. 19 But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything of which to accuse my nation. 20 For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain (Paul is under the chain of the covenant with the Lord to preach His Words to His people, and it is also because of this that the Jews of Israel have put him into the chains that hold him in Rome). 21 And they said to him, We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren who came January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 27 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

29 reported or spoken any evil of you. 22 But we desire to hear from you what you think; for concerning this sect, we know that it is spoken against everywhere. 23 So when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, to whom he explained and solemnly testified of the Kingdom of God (The 153 Words of God), persuading them concerning Jesus from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning till evening. (This is very important to take notice of. The Jews were given the opportunity from morning until evening, and then in the evening time it was time for them to make a decision. This is how it is in these last days. We are now in the Evening Time of the Day of the Lord, and it is time that we make a decision to receive His Words, or to be separated apart from Christ. This is why the Lord says through the prophet Zachariah in Zachariah 14:6-7, that in the Day there will be no Light, but the glorious lights will diminish. For there will be people, even many preaches, who like these Jews who do not have the Light of His Words, will have the Words of God shown to them, but they will not accept it, and because they will not hear, the Father will require it of them, thus it shall be in these days that the lights will diminish. Further it is that in the morning time, after the Evening Time and the Night Time, that the rapture will occur just before the coming time of the day of the Day of the Lord, that the Saints who are filled with Light shall be removed from the earth in the Rapture, so that the day time of the Day of the Lord shall burst forth without the Lights of the Saints being upon the earth, for they will then be found in heaven). 24 And some were persuaded by the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved. (This is a decision of these particular Jews; and, it is also likened to what is told to us in Zechariah 14:6-7, that the glorious ones will be diminished, for those of His people who do not believe in His Words are no longer of God John 8:47). 25 So, since there was no agreement among them, they left when Paul spoke this one utterance (Their pride kept them from hearing and seeing the Words of God and the hidden things of the Kingdom of God). The Holy Spirit spoke rightly to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet, 26 saying, Go to this people and say, You will hear with your ears but will not catch the meaning. You will look with your eyes but will not see (This is the same utterance that Jesus spoke when He said to the disciples that He spoke the Words of His Father but the people on the outside did not understand Matthew 13:14,15; Mark 4:12). 27 For this people s heart is calloused and their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes, so they may not see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their hearts and turn about and I should heal them. 28 THEREFORE LET IT BE KNOWN TO YOU, THEN, THAT THIS SALVATION OF GOD (The Promise that is contained within His Words) IS SENT TO THE GENTILES AND THEY WILL LISTEN (Paul is saying that when the Knowledge of Truth, that are the Words of God, are be opened to the Gentiles in the last days per Daniel 12:4, that he is saying the Gentiles will listen and they will receive His knowledge. This is in agreement to the Lord s prophetic Words of Daniel 12:9,10 that many shall receive Them and be made wise). 29 After when he had said these words, the Jews went away and had a great dispute among themselves (The opening of the Knowledge of Truth, that is His Words, is the twoedged Sword of Truth that will separate the Worthy and the Unworthy, for the Lord says that those who will not hear God s Words are not of God John 8:47; and, some of these people would not listen to Paul as he explained God s Words to them and unveiled the Knowledge of Truth to these Jews). 30 Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him, 31 preaching the Kingdom of God (Meaning he preached the Words of God that is the Kingdom of God that is within us) and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no one forbidding him. (With the passing away of the disciples and the apostles, the Words of God were indeed closed and lost to us until the time of the Gentiles has been fulfilled, and that is now, for His Words are again opened this time for the Gentiles, and all who will receive His Words). The Greater our Knowledge of Truth, the Better We are Able to Enable His Works The greater the depth in the knowledge of His Words that we seek out and receive, the greater is the reward of the power of God that we are able to receive (Proverbs 12:8). In Revelation 22:11 we are told that the Lord did not give us the authority to have more opened to us than what we ourselves seek out. Even though in Revelation 22:21 the apostle John gives us a last reminder that God s Grace was opened to us. If we had sought out His Words to do Good Works for others giving grace to others by doing the Words of God to enable the good Works of the Father to be done for others then the Grace of the Lord would have been on us. Now the Words of God are opened freely to all His people who desire to receive them. As it is recorded in Revelation 22:10, the Words of God within His Bible have not been technically sealed from us, but it required for us to see and hear them to open them, as is foretold in Revelation 22:11, and we did not open them as we remained rebellious to the fullness of the Truth of His Word. Understand that if we challenge God s wisdom of the work of His Creation as it is recorded in Genesis 1 and confirmed throughout the Bible, then we are not believers in the fullness of God s Word and of God s Book. Proverbs 12:8 A man will be commended according to His knowledge. Proverbs 24:5 A wise man is strong, yes, a man of knowledge increases strength. Proverbs 18:15 The heart of the prudent (This means one having cunning Wisdom, or valuable Wisdom ) acquires knowledge, and the ear of the Wise seeks Knowledge. Proverbs 10:14 Wise people store up Knowledge. Revelation 22: Then he said to me, "These Words are faithful and true." And the Lord God of the holy prophets (Holy Prophets are those prophets whom have received the knowledge of His 153 Words; for it is His Words that are Holy) sent His angel to show His servants the things which must shortly take place. 7 "Behold, I am coming quickly! Blessed is he who keeps the Words of the prophecy of this book." (It does not matter whether you say this verse means only for the Book of Revelation, or the entire Bible, for it is the Words of God that are the Words in them that are the Holy Words the set apart Words in the Book. It is actually amazing that with all of the emphasis on seeking out prosperity teaching and preachers, that no one saw that the only true key to prosperity was given by the Lord to all of us within this simple verse. For the Lord says that if you actually want to be blessed, then seek out His Words and keep them. The only seed that God delights in is our doing His Words to enable Him to do His Good Works for others. Grace is given for January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

30 grace. Nowhere in the Bible does it say that if you want to get blessed then go and put a seed money gift in the pocket of a false prosperity preacher. That is a teaching that is straight out of God s prison called Death that is in the Pit, for that is where such abominable teachings are rewarded, along with those who follow these rebellious teachings. Such a false preacher has no anointing that is of God, his only anointing is that of his father the Devil, and they are blind leaders of the blind). 8 Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things. 9 Then he said to me, "See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God." 10 And he said to me, "DO NOT SEAL the Words of the Prophecy of this Book, for the Time is at hand. 11 He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is Holy, let him be Holy still." (You are Righteous only when you hear His Words and you keep His Words, for His Words are what is Holy that we can receive. The Lord gave us this clue but we ignored it. Note that this was said to John, and John was Holy for His Words were in John by the way of the language of heaven, and thus God was in John) 12 "And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last." 14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. 15 But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie. 16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star." 17 And the Spirit (His Words; or as could be said here: the Father ) and the bride say, "Come!"(The bride is the one who is prepared and who has heard His Words and received them). And let him who hears say, "Come!" And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely. 18 For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this Book; 19 and if anyone takes away from the Words of the Book of this Prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the Holy City, and from the things which are written in this Book. 20 He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming quickly." Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus! 21 The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. (Notice that John added that the Lord s Grace has been with us; but, we were unable to see it nor did we hear it, for we never sought out the knowledge of the meaning of His Good. We have received Grace, but not even close to the power of what has been readily available to us if we would have opened our eyes and our ears and heard His Words and saw His way of enabling the Good Works of the Father). We, His people who live in these days need to wake-up very quickly and come to the realization that the Lord has made all of His Grace available to us. The Lord has opened His Words and made the Understanding of the all the parables and His Mysteries that are written within the Scriptures to be open to all of us. The chart that follows reveals from the Scriptures that the Words of God are God, and the Words of God are in every one of His 66 Books. It also should help us to understand that the Bible is likened to a meal that has all the food of the Kingdom of Heaven sitting upon a supernatural Table provided for us by the Lord. We are in the Time when the Lord has sent forth the Sword of Truth. It is likened to the Time when the Lord has asked us to take up His Sword and be strengthened by His Word and become likened Knights of the Lord eating at the Round Table. The Bible has 66 Books and they are circular in that they all tie together to the same theme. Scriptures in each book reveal the Words of God that are the Food of Heaven. Jesus said that His flesh is food for the soul. He said that if we do not eat of His flesh then we will in no ways find Eternal Life. The Flesh of Jesus is the Words of God, January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 29 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

31 for He gave up His Flesh so that He could return and open to us the Words of God, the great Gift of God, for us. It should not surprise us that the gematria of Wheel, as in the four wheels that surround the throne of God has a number value Gematria of 66 and that this is the same as the number value Gematria of A Meal. For the wheels follow exactly as the Words of God, whether spoken or written. We are in the Evening Time of the Day of the Lord the Time of the Great Supper Before we can give others grace of bread that is pleasing in the eyes of the Lord, we have to receive of the right bread of Knowledge. That means that we need to eat of the food of heaven. We are in the Evening of the Day of the Lord and He has invited us to eat at His Great Supper Table. The Lord has invited us to come and partake of the Food of Heaven so that our vessel shall be filled with oil before the selection of the Midnight Hour of those who will go up in the Rapture and who will escape the things that are to come. The golden oil of the Lord is that anointing that comes when you have received His Words and you have increased in the knowledge of God so that you are equipped to do every God Work. The Lord has called us all to be filled with oil and to bring Glory to His name prior to the end of the Seal Judgments and so that we are counted among His Worthy. Take notice in Luke 14:24 that the Lord says that whoever rejects His invitation shall not taste of the Food of Heaven. Whenever your opportunity comes to increase in the knowledge of the Lord, and you refuse to pursue it diligently, then you have lost your calling. You will not receive of His Food, and that means for eternity, for His Words are eternal and Paul teaches us in 2 Corinthians 12:1-4 that His Words are spoken by those in the third heaven. Thus, if the Lord says that you will not taste of His Food, then He means that you will not receive Eternal Life, for everyone in eternity eats of His Food. The Father warned us in Deuteronomy 18:19 that if we refuse to hear His Words then He will require it of us. Paul tells us in Hebrews 10:25-31 that it is a very serious thing to fall into the vengeance of God. When the Words are opened to you, then that is your calling. If you are called before the Midnight Hour, your desire must be to be found among the Raptured, and to go and be with our Lord Jesus Christ. The reason is that you are required to have an active love for the Lord your God, and it is to be a love that is with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. The Bible teaches us that you should not desire to spend one more day in the world, when you can stand in front of the presence of your God. The Lord said that those who love the world are not worthy of Him. So please do not treasure doing Good Works more than being with the Lord. You should do all that the Lord has called you to do and that is in His Will and purpose for your calling. But you should never desire being in the world more than being with your Lord. The apostle Paul says that the eye has not seen and the thought has never entered into the mind of man what the Lord has planned for those who love Him. So desire first to be in His presence, for His Words are eternal and you have no idea how great your work for God will be in heaven and in eternity. His Great Supper is never ending in Eternity, but it will come to an end at the Midnight Hour here on earth. Thus, how much oil will be found in your vessel at the Midnight Hour? Please remember that the Good Works that you will be able to do in the Night Time of the Day of the Lord is going to be dependant upon how oil you have obtained in this the remaining 3 years of the Evening Time of the Day of the Lord, and those 3 years of time will go faster than you might believe. Now is the time to build your house upon the Rock of the Word. Luke 14: Now when one of those who sat at the table with Him heard these things, he said to Him, "Blessed is he who shall eat bread (Partake of Instruction from the Lord) in the kingdom of God!" (The Kingdom of God is His Words that are within us). 16 Then He said to him, "A certain man gave a great supper and invited many, 17 and sent his servant at supper time to say to those who were invited, 'Come, for all things are now ready.' 18 But they all with one accord began to make excuses. The first said to him, 'I have bought a piece of ground, and I must go and see it. I ask you to have me excused.' 19 And another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask you to have me excused.' 20 Still another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.' 21 So that servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, 'Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind.' 22 And the servant said, 'Master, it is done as you commanded, and still there is room.' 23 Then the master said to the servant, 'Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. 24 For I say to you that none of those men who were invited shall taste my supper.'" Zechariah 14:6-7 6 It shall come to pass in that day that there will be no Light; the glorious ones (Most Bibles translate this as lights, but its meaning is the Glorious Ones who have light ) will diminish (At the Midnight Hour they will have their oil removed. Also in the Morning of the Day of the Day of the Lord, there will come a Great Falling Away, and in the Day time of the Lord Day of the Lord the time from 12:00 noon until sunset - the Antichrist will cause all those who refuse to take His mark to become martyrs for God). 7 It shall be one day which is known to the Lord Neither day nor night. But at Evening Time it shall happen that it will be Light. Psalm 119:130 The Entrance of Your Words Give Light; It gives Understanding to the Simple.

32 Revelation 3:14-22 (The Lukewarm, or Deceived Church) 14 "And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, 'These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God: 15 "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth. 17 Because you say, I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing -- and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked 18 I counsel you (warn you) to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. 20 Behold, I STAND AT THE DOOR AND KNOCK. If anyone hears My voice AND opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. 21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. 22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. Matthew 7: Not every one who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of My Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and by Your name cast out demons, and by Your name do many mighty works? 23 And then I will declare to them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity. (This is the cutting off of the complacent, rebellious, wealthy, blind, naked, and prideful pastors as per Luke 14:24). 24 Therefore every one who hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock: 25 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon the Rock. 26 And every one that hears these Words of mine (He spoke the Words of God to them, and He spoke in Parables of instruction that He gave to them, and these parables used Words of God), and does them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand: 27 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall thereof. 28 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these sayings, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching: 29 for He taught them as one having authority, and not as their scribes. James 4:4 Adulterers and adulteresses! (Those who desire to stay in the world are making as a friend of the world. Do not desire to stay in the world because it brings you in enmity with God. It is good that our heart says that we want to do all the Good Works and save as many as we can, but the first commandment is that we are to love our God with all our heart and He has called us to bring Him Glory by being a leader guiding His people to the Rapture, and not guiding them to be complacent and to stay on. The Rapture is an event that brings Glory to the Father and that is our goal brining Glory to the Father. We are to work as hard as we can now to teach as many as we can, but we give the greatest Glory to the Father by being among the Raptured. The Scriptures says to work to show ourselves approved in the Faith. That means we should work to leave as much knowledge as can for the complacent unwise virgins; but the goal of the Lord is to receive us as His first chosen bride in whom He delights). Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself and enemy of God. He has Given His Grace and His Truth as a Deposit for Us Until His Return There is a greater and deeper meaning to Grace than just receiving Favor. There is an eternal plan of Grace that is likened to a payment plan. Consider that Grace is likened to a currency of payment, for the Lord gives Grace for grace. Whatever grace you give to others, the Lord gives you a greater gift of Grace. However, if you seek to do favors for others with the mindset of receiving payment from God, then you have no Grace due you, for as the apostle James states, you have asked Him in amiss. Grace is given by God to the faithful sheep who just continue working and following Him, trusting Him that He will give them all they need for what work He has sent them to do. It is interesting but if you consider that we are now living in the Time of Judgment, then you should be able to understand that we are likened to people preparing ourselves to stand in front of our Judge. We have all been found unworthy, but we have an opportunity to straighten out our case and come in front of Him with the charges dismissed. (If you read the Writing The Word of God: Door, you will see a review of the Lord s letters to the seven types of churches in Revelation chapters 2 and 3. A church in Greek actually means the called out ones. Thus, it is not a physical church building or a particular denomination that the seven letters are written too. They are written to us of these last days, and we all fall into one of these seven types of churches. Of course where we worship and who we allow to teach us causes us to be gathered among one of these seven churches because people who worship together tend to believe the same and do the same ways of worshiping. We are accountable for what we worship and we are accountable for who we choose to place ourselves under to be taught. Likewise, these aspects of our worship tend to effect how from our hearts that we seek the Grace of our Lord. We have to trust in the Lord that He is going to meet all of our needs. James 4:2-3 2 You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and battle (Struggle as if a war is going on inside of you). Yet you do not have because you do not ask (You do not ask by being a doer of His Words, and by doing His Words through the way of the Knowledge of God s promises and His Way of His Will for that Word and for your work). 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures. (That is as clear as it can be stated. We are not really looking for the greatest treasure to use it for God s glory; rather James is saying that we only seek it because we desire to enjoy fame or the luxuries of this world. Therefore it has not been given to us because the Lord knows the real intent of our hearts. James is saying that we do not seek it to do enable the Father to do His Good works so that He is glorified we want the limelight; and for this reason His Words remained sealed from our eyes until now. If we had not been blind, He would have opened our eyes and healed us from all things. If we seek to do Good Works, as they are grace given towards others, and we do this for gain, then Grace is not due us from the Lord, and we have acted unwisely for satisfying our own selfish lusts).

33 Let us take a look at the Word Grace and we are going to see an interesting revelation. Through the use of numbers the Lord reveals that His Word Grace is tied to the eternal plan of God. Grace as it is written in the Greek Language of the New Testament has the same numerical value of the Foundations of Heaven as it is written in the Hebrew Language of the Old Testament. It also reveals that the Wheels of God that are in Heaven under His Throne are tied to the dispensation of the Grace of the Lord. Further Grace is tied to the teaching that the Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom as it is recorded in Proverbs 9:10. I have pointed out in the Writing The Words of God: Door, that the Lord only gives the Title of Apostle to those who have received His Words and who have turned, repented, and have increased in the Wisdom of God. Therefore, since Grace is a foundation doctrine of the Lord, then the Apostles must have the same foundational doctrine. We see this to be true in the testimony of the numbers of the Lord s Bible. The more intriguing tie is the Promise of the Lord and the Father that if we keep His Words then we have the Promise of the Lord to raise us up to Eternal Life. Further, take note that the Lord testifies through the numbers of the Bible that all those who become His Apostles and who diligently seek Him and to do His Will shall escape the Troubles of the Times that are to come. (This reveals a confirmation that it is the desire of the Lord from the foundations of the heavens, that it is His desire that we escape the troubles of the punishments to come, and that we desire to be with Him and thus give Him Glory in our wisdom we received from Him). The Grace of God is given for grace. But, let us remember that Grace is also tied to the Promise of the Lord that we will have all we need to make it through until His coming for us. The Lord reveals this teaching to us in a very intriguing way in the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The Apostle John tells us in John 1:17 that the Lord left us with a deposit of Two of His Words: Grace and Truth. Consider the Lord did not hide from us the meaning of Truth, as He explained it very well. He said that He spoke the Truth and we are told that His spoken Word made all of Creation. He gave us knowledge of the worm of the Abyss, and He gave us knowledge that He will pour out upon us His Spirit and His Spirit is called Truth. He also testified in Court in front of Pilate that He was the King of Truth. He also told us that it was the Spirit of Truth who reveals all Truth and that we are to increase in the knowledge of the Truth and be separated by His Truth. Yet we fail to hear Him or to understand His Truth. The Lord also explained Grace to us in like manner. He preached it and He did it. Grace and Truth were freely revealed to us, and we have no excuse. But, the important point is that Grace and Truth were never blocked from us in anyway. It is by the promise of God that is within these Words that we have seen miracles. Jesus name is Truth, and when we diligently seek for miracles for others in the name of Jesus these miracles are often given to us. The only reason that we have not received the power of the miracles as in the days of the Apostles is the weakness of our faith. Faith comes by knowledge of the Word and our knowledge of His Words is very poor. Also, over the last years we have received His Grace for our proper works of grace. As the Parable of the Good Samaritan shows us, the Lord had left us with a deposit of two of His Words until His return. In the Parable the Lord tells us that when He returns He will repay us all for our Good Works. We are the innkeeper for we are charged in Hosea 6:6 and Micah 6:8 that we are required by the Lord to increase in Knowledge of Him so that we can do every Good Work, and in those verses the Lord says that we are required by the Lord to do these Good Deeds for others. Take notice that the Lord gave us, as the innkeeper, two denarii. Denarii coins were the wage for one day of work. Thus the Lord will return within two days time and He said if we happen to do more for His sheep than the deposit that He left with us, He will pay us in full on His return. Peter teaches us that a day to the Lord is as a thousand years. Thus we should be able to see that the Lord will return within 2,000 years of His departure. Luke 10: And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" 26 He said to him, "What is written in the law? What is your reading of it?" 27 So he answered and said, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,' and 'your neighbor as yourself.'" 28 And He said to him, "You have answered rightly; do this and you will live." 29 But he, wanting to January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

34 justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" 30 Then Jesus answered and said: "A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32 Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had compassion. 34 So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; and he set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, 'Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, when I come again, I will repay you.' 36 So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?" 37 And he said, "He who showed mercy on him." Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise." Take notice in the following chart that the numbers testify that the coin and Gift or Token of Good Will, has the same value. This is exactly symbolic of what the Parable is revealing to us. When Jesus was born the Father spoke from heaven and told us that He has sent His Good Will to the earth. Jesus came to open His Words, and He left us with clarity of His Words Grace and Truth. These two Words were the deposit until the return of the Lord when He would open all of His Words to us. The Lord has now opened His Words and we are able to receive all of His Words in this the Time of the Evening of the Day of the Lord that is also the time of His invitation to come to His Great Supper where His food is being made available in abundance. This will culminate in the eventual physical return of the Lord that will occur prior to the end of 2000 years since His Resurrection and subsequent return and then the Ascension of the Lord. His Grace is Given to Us in the Manner as We Give Favor But Grace Comes with Requirements If we consider this Parable of the Good Samaritan carefully and if we also consider the Parable of the Talents and the Parable of the Minas, we should be able to come understand a deeper meaning of Grace. For Grace is tied to our expected works for the Lord. The Lord has opened to us the Pearl of Great Price that is the Treasure of His coins of Great Value: His Words. In the Parable of the Talents we see the Lord revealing that He is likened to a man who traveled to a far country to deliver His Goods to them. Firstly, we must recognize that the Lord says that this Parable of the Talents is a parable January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

35 of the Kingdom of Heaven. The Kingdom of Heaven is the Words of God for the Words of God are spoken in heaven and all things exist and consist within His Words. Please remember that Jesus was sent into the World to speak the Words of God Deuteronomy 18:18-19 and John 3:34. Also please remember that the Lord is always looking down from heaven continually to see if any of us understand and are seeking diligently to increase in Knowledge so that we are able to enable Him to do His Good Works for us as we ask them of Him according to the way of knowledge. The Wheels around the throne are filled with Eyes, and surely they are always looking for those who keep His Words in the 66 Books of the Bible. Consider now this Parable of the Talents and you should be able to see that this about the Lord who came to deliver His Goods His Words to the people, for all His Words are talents Good Works -= that we are able to do the way of as He gives us knowledge. The Lord wants us to use them and to increase in them. Please remember that the Lord send out the Disciples to speak His Words and to do them, a long time before He opened their eyes to His Words and gave them Understanding of the Scriptures. In like manner the Lord has left us with commands to speak and do His Words, even though we did not understand them as they are in heaven, nor did we bother to open them. As per Revelation 22:10, His Words have been closed since the time of John, but they were not sealed up. If we would have sought after them diligently we could have opened them, but we failed to do so. Now the Spirit of Truth, the 2 nd Seal Judgment, has come and He is pouring our His Spirit on us, and the Spirit is stirring us, causing our hearts to yearn for increasing in knowledge. Now we truly need to increase our talents, for the Night is coming and we will need all of the golden oil of the wisdom and understanding of God s Words as we can receive so that we can make it through the Night until the Rapture. The Lord calls these servants who gain in more talents with the talents that they have received as Good Servants. This can only be the ones who do Good for others and who receive His Words. The entrance of His Words grows Faith, and Faith is the presence of His Words. The Words of God are filled with His Holy Spirit, and thereby the Words of God are not just Words, they are supernatural Words. Thus the more of His Words we have, the greater is our faith, and the greater will be our works that bring Him Glory. The more knowledge of His Words that we have the more the Lord will pour out to us if we seek Him. For the more of His Words we know, the more the knowledge is poured out on us of His Other Words. The Parable of Talents is the work of teaching His Words to others and doing Good Deeds for others. The Lord has come to open to each of us some of His Words. We are to open more of them and to reap the knowledge of His Words in others who have heard of the Word of God but in them His Word is not grown. We are to help them open the Words of God to their Understanding. For the Lord says that He reaps where He has not sown, and we are the ones to help get the Words that He now has opened to us, and take them to all people so that the Lord may add to His Harvest all those whom the Father desires to be among His Harvest, as He is a reader of hearts. This Parable is about the Good Will that God has given to man, the Good Works of God that He has now opened to us. The Lord gives us His Wisdom and Understanding of His Words as likened to coins of deposit. They are the Great Treasure and the Lord expects that we will use His Great Treasure to increase His Kingdom. Under the leadership of King David the nation of Israel did this and prepared the Kingdom for the building of His Temple. The Lord is not interested in glamorous temples like He is the doing of Good Works, and that is the example that Jesus gave to us while He walked the earth. Jesus spoke His Words doing the Good Will of the Father wisely and the Good Works He enabled, gave glory to the Father, and greatly increased His Kingdom.

36 The Lord Requires that We Grow in Knowledge and that We Seek to Give Grace to Others We are to do Good for others so that the value of Gift of God, His coins or the knowledge of His Words is grown in value. The Lord does not increase our knowledge without expecting us to obey His Law and teach them to others and enable Him to do His Good Works to give Him Glory and to bring in the harvest for His Kingdom. All those who receive His Words and keep them will receive Eternal Life and they are the harvest of the Kingdom. Jesus said the laborers are few but the harvest s great. The Lord has given us all of the coins of heaven that we need to do the works that will bring in the harvest. The Lord shows us this requirement in the teaching of the Parable of the Talents. Matthew 25: "For it is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants AND delivered his Goods to them. (Most Bibles begins this sentence with the words For it is like the kingdom of heaven ; however, the original text only reads For it is like. This is important because the way the sentence is structured in the original Greek ties these verse of Matthew 25:14-30 with the Parable of the Ten Virgins, as it actually should be, and not separated off without a tie to the Parable of the Ten Virgins. It is true that it is a Parable of the Kingdom of Heaven, for this is stated clearly in Matthew 25:1; but this Parable of the Talents is tied to the activities of the Virgins in the Parable of the Ten Virgins). 15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey. 16 Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. 17 And likewise he who had received two gained two more also. 18 But he who had received one went and dug in the ground, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them. 20 "So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them.' 21 His Lord said to him, 'Well done, Good and Faithful servant; you were Faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.' 22 He also who had received two talents came and said, 'Lord, you delivered to me two talents; look, I have gained two more talents besides them.' 23 His Lord said to him, 'Well done, Good and Faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the Joy of your Lord.' 24 "Then he who had received the one talent came and said, 'Lord, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you have what is yours.' 26 "But his lord answered and said to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed. 27 So you ought to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. 28 So take the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten talents. 29 'For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. 30 And cast the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (In the Outer Darkness is the prison of God that is called Death. It is for the punishment of those whom God refers to as the abominable and the thieves. The unprofitable servant who was given the access to the Talents the coins of His Good Will sent from heaven - are cast into the God s Prison of Death where they will be chained in the body of a man-sized worm and they will writhe on their bellies trying to escape the terrible teeth of the terrible beasts who pursue them to eat as food. Because they rejected to receive of God s food while they lived on earth, they become food for beasts in His prisons). It is by the Word of Faith that we receive the Spirit of God; but, remember this, that in the Time of the Morning and the Day of the Day of the Lord that there will be a falling away as the Lord allows the hearts of the wicked to be filled with more wickedness and lack of understanding. Thus, the longer we wait to increase in knowledge the harder it will be to increase in knowledge. When the Falling Away comes after the Saints are Raptured, the more difficult it will be to come to the knowledge of God, for the Scriptures reveal that people will no longer receive Sound Doctrine. They will no longer desire the Grace of God, but they will become greater lovers of themselves, and they will become more likened to the people before the Flood. I believe that is a part of the reason why the Lord is going to send Enoch back as part of His two witnesses, along with Elijah. For after Enoch had originally departed that it seems man seems began to refuse to hear sound doctrine, until the completely fell away from the Lord. The Lord says that by the time of His second physical coming that the righteous who will be left upon the earth will be very scarce. They will be as scarce as like the hidden treasure of ancient coins. We should take notice that the Lord places this Parable of the Talents directly after the Parable of the Ten Virgins and right before His explanation of the Parable of the coming Judgment. Take note that the Judgment that the Lord is revealing is about the Good Deeds that we have done for others. The Lord is saying that His Words are found in the people, even though it remains as seed until the knowledge of Truth is received as His Words are made known to them. Because His Words are Holy and Supernatural having the Spirit of God always present. And also because His Words always have angels watching over them, even when they are as unsprouted seed within people, it means that when we do for others we are doing for Him, as God is also Spirit and His Words are Spirit. This Parable of the Judgments follows the Parable of the Talents because the Words of God teach us to do Good Deeds for others, but we are also to teach His Words to others. In the Parable of the Ten Virgins we find the virgins are awakened at the evening time by a shout to get ready, and that means that they are to fill their vessels with oil by increasing in knowledge and doing Good Deeds as the prepare to meet the bridegroom. Five of the virgins are wise and heed the call and trim their lamps, meaning they do increase in knowledge of God and go forth to do Good Deeds. But, five of the virgins are not wise and they do not heed the call to increase their vessel with oil by increasing in the knowledge of God and doing good Deeds. At the Midnight Hour a shout goes out that the bridegroom comes and the virgins are to go out to meet him. Meaning that they are to separate themselves from the world because they should have sufficiency of oil in their vessel. Then all the virgins arose to trim their lamps. The five wise virgins found that there January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 35 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

37 was additional oil placed into their vessels. But the five unwise virgins had little oil in their lamps, and when they checked their lamps, their vessels were suddenly out of oil, as the Lord had taken what they had and had added it to the vessels of the wise virgins. The unwise, or foolish virgins ask to receive some of their oil, but the wise virgins say no, because they may need all the oil in their vessels to keep them safe and secure in the Time of the Night until the bridegroom comes to take them away to the wedding hall, in the event that is called the Rapture. The five wise virgins will go forth doing what they know to do that pleases God until that time when the Lord comes for them. They will be kept safe and secure as like the days when Noah was sealed up from the flood. For during the Time of the Night hile they await the bridegroom s call, there will be great troubles upon the earth, and upon everyone who does not have the knowledge of the Words and is not sealed up by the Lord. In that time the five unwise virgins found that they had not oil left in their vessel after the shout that the bridegroom is heard. They try to get it from the wise virgins but they are not able to share what they have. Thus, the five unwise virgins have to go out seeking the oil for their vessel. If they seek it diligently they will find it, but they will not be able to get into the wedding hall in other word they will not be kept safe and secure and they will not get into the wedding hall. They also will not be found among the raptured. They will have to wait until the Lord s physical coming, or until they are martyred for the glory of the Lord. This Parable of the Ten Virgins is a very good description as to what occurs in these days of the Seal Judgments. Matthew 25: Then shall the Kingdom of Heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 Those who were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the Bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the Bridegroom cometh; go you out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps have gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, Lest there be not enough for us and for you: but rather you go to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And while they went to buy, the Bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. (When the Door is shut, the Lord has removed the power of the Word from the people on Earth who had not been found worthy. They have no understanding of how to enable the Words for the Lord has not given them His Words with Authority). 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But He answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13 Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of Man comes. (The Lord is referring to the day and hour when the Words of God are opened, and when the day and hour of your invitation comes to invite them to the Supper. If they refuse they lose).

38 Following is the Parable of the Ten Virgins and the Parable of the Talents, is the Parable of the Judgment when the Lord comes in His Glory with the Holy Angels to separate the Worthy from the Unworthy. That is not the physical return of the Lord when He comes and establishes His Kingdom on Earth. This is the Judgment of the believers as to whether they have been faithful to obediently watch for Him, and if they have been alert to be prepared by increasing in Knowledge. This is the Judgment of the Midnight Hour, and this judgment is going to be a snare on all those who have not been watching and who did not heed that the Time of the End will begin with the opening of His Words and the increase in the knowledge of God. You are able to tell the true receiving of His Words by the ability to interpret correctly the things that are to come, for the entirety of His Words are Truth and they are Spirit. The Lord has promised that when the Spirit of Truth ahs come that He will guide us into all Truth and make known things that are to come. All of the things said should be able to be tested by the Scriptures and all the Parables must agree. That is how you will tell the false prophets and false teachers from the one whom the Lord sends. Historically the Lord always sent one messenger to reveal things that are to come when He is going to make a movement within His people, and then all others verify that Truth. This is as it was with Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Samuel, David, Elijah, Daniel, John the Baptist, etc. When the Lord is going to bring vast destruction, He sends two supernatural testimonies before an event, as He did with the ark and the animals in Noah s day, as He came down Himself with the Father at Babel, as He sent His two angels to Sodom, and as He will do to Israel when He sends His two witnesses. The Lord has opened His Words, and that event has come upon everyone on the face of the whole earth as a snare. Make no mistake, for every minister and Bible teacher was caught unaware and unprepared. In regard to the beginning of the Day of the Lord, that was the sign of Jonah, and it was the Day and hour that no one knew but the Father. This was the beginning of the Day of the Lord that the Bible foretold, but only the Father knew when it would begin. We could only guess at its timing. None of the so-called End Times preachers and Scholars knew of this time and all of them were caught in a snare, as they did not know of His Words. Some of them were caught in their pride and the Lord has made them to be unmasked and their shame is going to be made known to all, for they are continuing to speak with unrepentant hearts, even when the Lord has made it clear that they have confused the people with their false teachings of the End Times. Luke 21:34-36 But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and THAT DAY (The Day of the Lord that began in June 2003) come on you unexpectedly. FOR IT WILL COME AS A SNARE ON ALL THOSE WHO DWELL ON THE FACE OF THE WHOLE EARTH. Watch therefore, and pray always THAT YOU MAY BE COUNTED WORTHY to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man. (This means that if we do not wake up and see that we do not have the Knowledge of God that we believe that we have, then we have become trapped in a snare, and we will not be found worthy by the Lord at the Midnight Hour, and we will not be kept safe from the troubles that are to come in the remainder of the Day of the Lord. We have to wake-up now, in the Evening Time of the Day of the Lord, to receive the Light and to eat of Great Supper so that our vessel is filled with oil before the Judgment of the Midnight Hour). (Note: One End Times TV Speaker has dangerously claimed that he received the Words, yet he continues to make false prophecies and give false teachings, such as like the antichrist is the rider on the White Horse of the 1 st Seal Judgment and that no man can know the day and the hour of the judgments, when the Lord said that we will know the sign of His Day when it has been unveiled. It is only each persons the personal invitation to the Great Supper that is the day and hour that they will not know, so that they have to be prepared individually because if they reject His invitation when it comes to them, then they will be left outside the Sealing of the Worthy. The Lord has thus revealed that this person does not have the knowledge of His Words, and He has shown that this person had also not received the Words of God from the Lord, but instead it is clear that he is hearing from the spirit of error, and the Lord said that from such everyone should turn away lest his sins come upon them). There is a second Day and Hour that no one knows except each of us. That is the day and the hour when the knowledge of the Truth will pass by us and it will be our invitation to receive it. If on that day and hour when our opportunity has come to receive His Words, then that is the day the angels record our acceptance or rejection in the little book of His Words that is kept by the Holy Angels. That is the book of the Words of God. That is the book that our daily wages are to be measured against. The Lord says that we are to be judged by every word that proceeds from our mouth. But, it is the absence of the Words of God that will stand in judgment against us. It is interesting to note that the Gematria, or number value of the letters of these words, are of the same value. The Little Book and the Denarii has the same numeric letter value. This seems to testify to the accuracy of what the Lord is revealing within these Parables regarding the Angels coming forth and judging us by our Words. In Revelation 10 the Lord had the angel take the Little Book and give it to John and told him to eat it. He said that it tasted like honey to His mouth, but it was sour in his stomach. That is the way of His Words when we taste of them they are like honey, but if we do not obey the Lord and go forth and do them, they turn sour in our stomach. David said His Words are like honey to his mouth. All those who would not eat of His Words in the Evening of the Day of the Lord while the Great Supper is being served, will have a sour stomach in the Morning as they will then receive the fruit of their reward.

39 Please remember that the Parable of the Judgments follows the Parable of the Ten Virgins and then the Parable of the Talents. It seems obvious that the Lord provides His food of heaven abundantly and that He pours out the oil of heaven liberally; but, more importantly, He also requires that we seek His food and His oil to the fill, and that He requires for us to utilize what knowledge and understanding that we receive to help others. In this parable of the Judgments the Lord says that if we do not help others then we are cast into the punishments of the Outer Darkness the everlasting fire of Death. It is very serious that we not only do His Words so that He is able to do Good for others, but that we do so in the way of the Lord s Good Works that is according to knowledge. The Lord is pointing out that it is not enough that we just help people, but that in these days when the knowledge of God is being freely poured out, that we do so in the way of doing His Good Works according to our diligence to increase in the knowledge of Him and of Good. Once you understand the Parable of the Ten Virgins, you are able to see that this is a parable that is aimed at us of this very day. For this Parable is about what we do once we know that the Bridegroom is about to come. We are to increase in oil. If we want to be among the raptured then it is an absolute requirement that we increase in knowledge of His Words that is the key to increasing in Understanding (That Understanding is the Knowledge of the Holy One). If we stand still and wait for the rapture as if we are already assured and ready, then these Parables reveal that we can know for sure that we will not be found among the raptured. The Lord provides us His food and His oil as a deposit. In these times of the Seal Judgments we are required to go forth, to and fro, and use these talents. If we do not increase in the talents that He gives us, then we will be left out of the Rapture. But, it is more serious than that, for the Lord says in Matthew 25:45-46 that we will be cast out into everlasting punishment. This should begin to upon us up to the Truth that the Grace of God is earned by our giving of grace, and not just any grace, it is the grace that we are able to offer from our increase in the knowledge of God. Matthew 25:31-46 (The Son of Man Will Judge the Nations) 31 "When the Son of Man comes in His glory (We miss the meaning of this statement. This is not the physical return of Jesus, for He is coming in His Glory and not with great Glory and might. This event is all about the time when the Lord decides the eternal fate of those who will be taken up. He will come like as like in the Transfiguration. While the Disciples slept He was suddenly there in His Glory. They awoke only after He had chosen those worthy. Consider that Elijah was transfigured; yet Elijah has not yet died on earth, and He will come to earth at the time of the Trumpet Judgments with Enoch. They will both be killed late in the morning of the Day of the Lord. Yet here we see him before Jesus. The Spirit had to awaken the three disciples to see this sight. So January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 38 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

40 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace it reveals to us that this selection will be at the Midnight Hour prior to the time of the actual rapture, and the people will not see the Lord in His Glory, but they will know the results. For when the Lord comes in His Glory He is coming for Judgment. He comes with His Holy Angels to judge the people by their Good Works, and He will seal up the worthy while setting apart the unworthy. The Holy Angels are those who protect the Words of God. They are set apart. They are the ones keeping the record of what we do with His talents of His Words and His knowledge. They know how much each of us have received and they know and record all our works. They will take away His Words and the knowledge of God from those who are unworthy and add it to the vessels of those who are worthy. This is the time of the Midnight Hour Judgment, when one will be taken and one will be left. Those who are taken will be sealed until the time of the rapture. The Lord says that they will be kept safe and secure by the power of His Word. No one can harm them as long as they keep their garments. Once sealed they are able to know that they are sealed because they will feel the presence of the Lord in greater power in that time of the Judgment. This is the Lord coming in the Glory of His Resurrected Body and in His Supernatural Spirit), and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. (The Lord is not going to be sitting in the Temple. He will be in the air and the angels will judge each soul by their Words and their resulting Good Works as is recorded in the little books. This will be the greatest night of Supernatural power ever recorded in the Bible. It will be terrible for so many, but it will be a joyous night for those who are found worthy. Remember the disciples, after awakening at the Transfiguration, they immediately wanted to build the Temple. This will now happen. Immediately after the Midnight Hour, the worthy Jewish people, and all the people who are worthy, will know that the time has come to build the Temple in Jerusalem for the Lord; and that will be another sign to us). 32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. 33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, 'Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: (The Kingdom is His Words, and they will inherit them that night in power, and they will be sealed up to await the Rapture. They will continue to enable His Good Works and they will glorify the Lord until the Lord comes back to take them for the Rapture. But, from this moment they are sealed as if they are in the Wedding Hall, and no one else can enter. That is the moment of selection for the Rapture for all those living) 35 for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; 36 I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.' 37 "Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?' 40 And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.' 41 "Then He will also say to those on the left hand, 'Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; 43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.' 44 "Then they also will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?' 45 Then He will answer them, saying, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.' 46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life." Matthew 12:12 12 For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. Matthew 17:1-8 1 And after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into an high mountain apart, 2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. 3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. 4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is Good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. 5 While he yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; you hear Him! 6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid. 7 But Jesus came and touched them and said, Arise and do not be afraid. 8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only. Mark 9: And He said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see the kingdom of God present with power." 2 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. 3 His clothes became shining, exceedingly white (Purity and knowledge of Truth), like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them. 4 And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus. 5 Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"-- 6 because he did not know what to say, for they were greatly afraid. (In the 2 nd half of the Seal Judgments the fear of the Lord will be made known, and people will have this same reaction, that they are to build His Temple, but this time they will for it is ordained for a Temple to built in Israel at that time). 7 And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!" 8 Suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves. 9 Now as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things they had seen, till the Son of Man had risen from the dead. 10 So they kept this word to themselves, questioning what the rising from the dead meant. 11 And they asked Him, saying, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?" 12 Then He answered and told them, "Indeed, Elijah is coming first and restores all things. And how is it written concerning the Son of Man, that He must suffer many things and be treated with contempt? 13 But I say to you that Elijah has also come, and they did to him whatever they wished, as it is written of him." (John the Baptist testified that Jesus would come speaking the Words of God, and they killed John even though he was giving to them the greatest event of Biblical time exactly as it was foretold by the Father in the Old Testament Deuteronomy 18:18-19).

41 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Luke 9: And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, "Who do the crowds say that I am?" 19 So they answered and said, "John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again." 20 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said, "The Christ of God." 21 And He strictly warned and commanded them to tell this to no one, 22 saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day." 23 Then He said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. 24 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it. 25 For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroyed or lost? 26 For whoever is ashamed of Me and My Words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father's, and of the holy angels. 27 But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who shall not taste death TILL THEY SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD." (The Kingdom of God is that the Lord controls all particles even to their smallest states of sub-atomic levels. The Lord does this by His spoken Word, and it occurs. The Words of God is the Kingdom of God, and that is why the Father warns from the cloud that we are to hear Him to hear the Words of God that Jesus speaks). 28 Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening. 30 And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in Glory (The Lord caused them to appear in their Resurrected state of Glory, being made new and looking to be about 33 years of age. Elijah is still to this very day the same 70+ years old man that he was when he taken up in the chariot of fire, and the body of Moses is still to this day a dead body, but for this event the Father gave the authority for them and the Lord Jesus to appear in their Resurrected state so that we are without excuse of knowledge) and spoke of His decease which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem (They spoke together about the death of Jesus with Jesus). 32 But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; and when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men who stood with Him. 33 Then it happened, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--not knowing what he said. 34 While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were fearful as they entered the cloud. 35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!" 36 When the voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. But they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen. Note: I offer this explanation for the reason that Moses and Elijah are seen at the transfiguration from what can be understood from Scripture. Moses has died on earth while Elijah has not yet died. Elijah was taken into heaven in a chariot while he was in his 70 s. It is recorded in the Bible that every man has to die once. Thus, Moses represents the Glory of God to raise one up from the dead, and Elijah represents the Glory of God to transform the living. For Elijah and Enoch have not yet died, and therefore Elijah came from heaven where he remains yet alive awaiting for the time that the Lord will send him and Enoch back to the earth during the final 3.5 years of the Trumpet Judgments. Then they will testify to the Truth of God s Words from the times before the flood and the times after the flood. In this Transfiguration the Lord has revealed Moses and Elijah for Moses represents the promise of the Law that we are to teach His Words, and Elijah represents the Testimony to the power in the Spirit to do the works of His Words. In 1997 I again witnessed the sight of the Transfiguration as the Lord appeared in a vision to my son and to me. I have explained this in other Writings. He appeared on the platform of a church in San Antonio during a Sunday night healing service. He was there with Elijah and Moses standing beside Him as they observed the healing service going on. They were all three speaking to each other. I never saw the face of Moses, and I only saw the side of the face of Jesus. I did, however, clearly see Elijah. He looked straight at me and we made eye contact. He spoke to Jesus and then he looked back at me again. I was in the audience, towards the rear of the church. I had been praying with my hand raised towards the aisle where the pastor was down anointing with oil the sick that needed healing. I was holding my son in my other arm. He kept trying to get me to look up for he was telling me that there was Jesus. Without looking up I told him to be shhhh, as it was only the pastor. The second time I was more blunt in my scolding of him for interfering with the service. Then the third time he grabbed my face and forced me to look up at the stage, telling me to look that there was Jesus, and he was quite stern in his voice. As I looked up, I was shocked to see the Lord with Elijah and Moses standing there. They were all three in beautiful high quality robes. No white, but rather a beautiful cream kind of color. Just like He is pictured in so many drawings of people who said that they witnessed Him. I was made to recognize that I was witness to the Lord appearing in His Glory. Further I was purposefully to note that Elijah was in eye contact with me for extended time on two occasions. This vision lasted only about 2-3 minutes and then they were gone. I was left with a feeling that what was needed for the healings was not occurring, and that there was something blinding us like a fog from understanding. Now, several years later, I have been brought to understand what it was. We had not heard Him speak His Words, and therefore, we lacked the knowledge that enables Him to do His great works. Elijah had that knowledge, and ever since that day I have sought to understand what was it that Elijah knew. To Receive His Grace - We Are Required to Increase in Knowledge and to do Good. The combination of these three Parables should reveal to us that when the Lord, by Grace, opens His Words to us in this the Day of the Lord, that we are required to increase in Knowledge of God and go forth doing His Good Works. The Lord is expecting us to go to and fro to increase in knowledge, and to go to and fro so that the earth is filled with the knowledge of the Glory of the Lord. There is great hope for us, for the Lord tells Daniel in Daniel 12:4 that we will go to and fro and that knowledge shall increase. The problem is that a lot of people are going to be like the unwise virgins and they are going to wait until after the Midnight Hour to receive His Knowledge and to go forth to do Good. Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Micah 6:8 8 He has shown you, O man, what is Good; and WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU BUT TO DO JUSTLY, TO LOVE GOOD DEEDS, AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR GOD?

42 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, SHUT UP THE WORDS, and SEAL the BOOK until the TIME of the END; many shall run to and fro, AND knowledge shall be increased. Daniel 12: And He said, Go your way, Daniel, for the Words are closed up and sealed till the Time of the End. 10 Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise SHALL understand. I believe that it is well pointed out within these Parables of how Grace and Accountability are securely tied together. There is an account coming at the Midnight Hour for how we have used our resources to help others, and for how much of the knowledge of God that we have obtained. We must remember that in the Time of the Night that is coming, you are going to receive of the miraculous works of God in accordance to the amount of oil the knowledge of God s Words and the Way of His Promises - that you have stored up in your vessel. The Knowledge of God is given out like a wage in this the Time of the Evening of the Day of the Lord. It is the time of the abundance, and as much as you seek the more you shall receive by the Time of the Midnight Hour. Remember the Parable of the Ten Virgins The Wise Virgins are not going to want to sell you any of their oil because they are going to want to make sure that they have enough of the Knowledge of His Words so that they are assured they are able to make it through the Time of the Night until that time when they are called up in the event that is known as the Rapture. Matthew 25: "Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, 4 but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. 6 "And at midnight a cry was heard: 'Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!' 7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.' 9 But the wise answered, saying, 'No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.' 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. 11 "Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us!' 12 But he answered and said, 'Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.' 13 "Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming. In the first chapter of James, the Lord makes it clear that we are to use our Good Gift and not be hearers only. We are to use that Good Gift to do for others, as we would like them to do for us. The doing of Good is done from our hearts, and it is a free-will gift to others, just as it is a free-will gift that we receive from the Lord to us. It is a gift that is there by the Grace of God that is also a Promise of the Father given to us. He tells us in John 15:7 that if we have received His Words inside of us to the point that His knowledge is grown mature within us, then we will walk in His Way and we will go forth as like He was sent having a heart that desires to do Good for others as the Father directs us. Then whatever we ask of the Lord He will do it for us, for we will be asking for the doing of Good for others. The Lord can only truly be within us when our heart is like His, for in His heart the Words of God were alive and seeking for those for whom He could do the Words to give rest to the weary. His heart was not defiled by the lusts for the things of this world. Consider what James states in James 1:27 in his description of the meaning of being undefiled. James 1: James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad: Greetings. 2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 5If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. 9 Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation, 10 but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he will pass away. 11 For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits. 12 Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. 15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death. 16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. 17 Every Good gift (Every Miracle Work of God) and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. 18 Of His own will He brought us forth by the Word of Truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures. (He created us by His Spoken Word. Also this says that the creation of man was prior to the creation of everything else that breathes). 19 So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; 20 for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God. 21 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted Word, which is able to save your souls. 22 BUT BE DOERS OF THE WORD, AND NOT HEARERS ONLY, DECEIVING YOURSELVES. 23 FOR IF ANYONE IS A HEARER OF THE WORD AND NOT A DOER, HE IS LIKE A MAN OBSERVING HIS NATURAL FACE IN A MIRROR; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. 26 If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless. (This is clear that His preachers must bridle their tongues and teach His Words and not their own words that comes from their pride and rebellion against hearing Him speak His Words and against His Law of His Words that gives Spirit and Life). 27 Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

43 James states in James 1:27 that we are to strive to remain undefiled of the world, and we are to help the widowed and the orphans. There is nothing impossible to us with the Lord meaning with the Words of God. The Lord can provide us with all the resources necessary to help the orphaned children, not only in America, but around the world. We must learn to use His Words to do so. James is saying that we are not to focus on the things of this world, and that throws out the prosperity teaching of today. We have become a defiled church for we focus on succeeding in the world so that we can obtain of the world. If we focused on the Word, and the teaching of the Word, all business would follow. But we focus on the world and claim that when we succeed we will be better able to help the Lord. That is not the way of the Lord. This in no means states that we are to sew financial seed for financial return in any ministry that proclaims it is teaching the Word. That is a teaching of the devil. Being loyal with tithes and offerings is mandatory with God, but never does the Lord desire you to finance false teaching, or ministries that are not teaching His Words and revealing Understanding by the Way of His Words. The Lord blesses the ministries that are in alignment with the Scriptures and with the will of the Father, and the Father says to believe in Jesus and to hear Him. The Father also says that if we do not hear His Words and gain in knowledge of the Works that Jesus was told to do, then He is going to hold us into account. That means any financial tithes, offerings, and blessings that are not sewn in agreement with this proclamation of the Lord, is not in the blessing of the Lord. How can you receive the pouring out of Grace from the Lord when you sew your tithes, offerings, and blessings, in error and against the Way of His Will? You need to hold the Ministries into account, and if they are not doing the will of the Lord, then take your tithes, offerings, and blessing and place them into ministries doing the work of teaching the Words of God and walking in the way of His Words. In several other Writings I have explained this for you. It is great to support your church, but you are not to go to a church that is not in alignment with the Lord and what He has told us to teach on His Sabbath Day, and especially in this the Time of the Day of the Lord. The Holy Angels of the Lord keeps account of all things regarding the Words of God, inclusive of your support in the work of getting out the Good News of His Words to the people of the world. As in the Old Testament when Abraham had every gift item from all leaders of Israel recorded that was given to the account of the building of the Tabernacle. For the Tabernacle of Moses was established to teach His Words and the Way of His Words with every item within the Tabernacle. By the recording of the Offerings, even down to the spoonfuls of incense, the Lord was showing us that He counts in the books of heaven, every single gift that is given for the purpose of teaching His Words, even to the smallest detail and item. Thus, when you give resources into ineffective ministries instead of those doing His effective work in the proper time of the season of God, then you are not wisely using the Lord s resources that He is giving you, and you should not expect that you are due His Grace for your giving of His resource. It may be sewed and doing some good, but remember that the Lord gave preferences to the offerings of Cain and Abel. One was given with a greater understanding of the way of the Words of the Lord and the Will of God for the teaching of His people. The Lord did not respect Cain s offering, but He did greatly respect Abel s offering. That is how it is today. If you desire the Lord to prefer your offering, then sew it into the ministry doing the Work that God has ordained for this Time of the Day of the Lord, the ministry teaching of His Words that are the Pearl of Great Price that Jesus died on the Cross to open for us; and do not put into ministries that teach you goodly pearls of nice teachings from the Scriptures, but they do not prepare you with the knowledge that you will need to do His Good Works in the Night of the Day of the Lord. With His Words there is nothing impossible for us. His people need to get in alignment with the Will of God and bless the Kingdom of God and not buy the idols of the things of the City of Babylon nor focus on the desires of the world economic system. We need to trust God and make His Words our first choice, in our talents, even in our coin, and in the ways of our living (Such as like the Israelites were taught under Moses by the direction of the Law of God). Matthew 13: Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant seeking Goodly pearls, 46 who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it. John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. (To abide means to walk in the way of ). Proverbs 11:9 Through knowledge the righteous shall be delivered. (The righteous receive knowledge by receiving the Words of God and then increasing in knowledge of the promise God that are in those Words; and then becoming a doer of His Words). Proverbs 9:10 Understanding of the Holy One is knowledge. Proverbs 10:14 Wise people store up knowledge. (Knowledge is he who gains understanding of the Holy One). Proverbs 12:8 A man will be commended according to His knowledge (Consider this carefully and you should see that a man/woman will be given greater recognition in heaven according to their knowledge of the Holy One). Proverbs 10:8 The wise in heart will receive commands (So it is in the way that the Lord describes David s heart in Acts 13:22). Proverbs 12:1 Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge (According to Proverbs 1:23 it is the Lord who pours out the Spirit of Truth who gives instruction to us; and those who love His Words will hear the voice of the Spirit of Truth). We must become Doers of His Words to Know His Grace To receive of the Grace of God, it can not be overlooked how important that it is to do His Words and enable the Father to do His Good Works for others. In Matthew 13:10-17 when the Lord is revealing to the Disciples that it had January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

44 been given by the Father for them to receive His Words so that they can do His Good Works, the Lord reminds them that even though He is speaking in the earthly languages, the people cannot discern fro those words and those sentences, His Words that He has been sent from God to reveal. The Lord did not speak His Words in unknown tongues, but within the normal languages of the earth. His Good Works give us Grace. When we receive the Knowledge of Truth we also receive the knowledge of His Grace, for they are forever intertwined. For this reason the Lord says that to whomever much is given, much is required. Grace is given, but there is a requirement of the Lord for the accountability of His Gift of Grace and the Gift of His Words that are His Truth. We are truly a blessed people for in all of history the opening of His Words has been given to us in their full measure. The Lord says that many prophets and many righteous men of the past would give so much to be able to live in these three years that we have to do so much for the Lord, and to be able to do His Good Works in the 6+ years we will have to call on the Lord during the Time of the Night until the time of the Rapture. There will be works done in the Time of the Night, and people will receive His Words in the Time of the Night, but they are not going to be raptured if they had the opportunity to receive His Words in the Time of the Evening. (We will consider this event more in this Writing). Matthew 13: And the disciples came and said to Him, Why do you speak to them in parables. 11 He answered and said to them, Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12 For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. 13 THEREFORE I SPEAK IN PARABLES, BECAUSE SEEING THEY DO NOT SEE, AND HEARING THEY DO NOT HEAR, NOR DO THEY UNDERSTAND. 14 AND IN THEM THE PROPHECY OF ISAIAH IS FULFILLED, WHICH SAYS: HEARING YOU WILL HEAR AND SHALL NOT UNDERSTAND, AND SEEING YOU WILL SEE AND NOT PERCEIVE; 15 FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS GROWN DULL (NO LIGHT). THEIR EARS ARE HARD OF HEARING, AND THEIR EYES THEY HAVE CLOSED, LEST THEY SHOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES AND HEAR WITH THEIR HEART AND TURN, SO THAT I SHOULD HEAL THEM. 16 But blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear (This is His prophetic word that He would fulfill to open to them His Words and give them Understanding of the Scriptures, and He did so in Luke 25:44,45); 17 for assuredly, I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it. (If we only realized the true value of what God has now opened for us we could not stop the shouting and praising of God! Soon the blind will see and the lame will walk, but in such great numbers as like has never been seen on earth before, because Paul said in Acts 28:28 that the Good News has been sent to the Gentiles and they will receive it. Please take notice that Paul made this comment after the days of his missionary journeys were basically over with. So he was speaking of a time yet to come. Oh, God s people please wakeup and anoint your eyes with eye salve, for Paul was speaking of YOU of this day when the Good News of the Words of God ad been opened to you. God has sent the Gift to you that will fully equip you to do every Good Work and by this enable you to give wonderful sacrifices of Glory to the Lord). Psalm 14:2-3, & Psalm 53:2-3 2 The Lord looks down from Heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, WHO SEEK GOD. 3 They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none that does GOOD, no, not one. Matthew 19: Now behold, one came and said to Him, Good Teacher, what Good shall I do that I may have eternal life? 17 So He said to him, Why do you call Me Good? No one is Good but One, that is, God. Mark 10: Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? 18 So He said to him, Why do you call Me Good? No one is Good but One, that is, God. Psalm 107:1, 118:1, 118:29 Oh Give Thanks unto the Lord, for He is Good. Psalm 119:68 You are Good, AND You do Good; teach me Your statutes. (David is saying to teach him how to enable the Good Works of the Father to be done as he asks of Him and to be within His Will those are the Lord s Statutes). John 14:10 The Words which I speak to you I do not speak from Myself, but the Father who abides in Me, He does the works. John 10:32 Jesus answered them, Many Good Works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me? John 10:32 32 Jesus answered them, "Many Good Works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?" Proverbs 11:23 The desire of the righteous is only Good. Proverbs 19:8 He who gets Wisdom loves his own soul; he who keeps Understanding WILL find Good. (It is a promise of God that He will open it to us if we diligently seek to receive Understanding, and that comes from the entrance of His Words in our hearts Psalm 119:130) Psalm 135:3-6 Praise the Lord, for the Lord is Good; sing praises to His name, for it is pleasant. 4 For the Lord has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel for His special treasure. 5 For I know that the Lord is great, and our Lord is above all gods. 6 Whatever the Lord pleases He does, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deep places. James 1: BUT BE DOERS OF THE WORD, AND NOT HEARERS ONLY, DECEIVING YOURSELVES. 23 FOR IF ANYONE IS A HEARER OF THE WORD AND NOT A DOER, HE IS LIKE A MAN OBSERVING HIS NATURAL FACE IN A MIRROR; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

45 Understanding the Parable of the Day and the Hour To truly understand the Time of the Day of the Lord, it is necessary to come to understanding of the Parable of the Day and the Hour. On several occasions the Lord included in His Parables the statement that no man will know the Day and the Hour that the Son of Man comes. You may think that this is not a Parable, for it is woven within both Parables and Teachings. However, in all of these cases the statement is made with an emphasis upon our being prepared for events that will occur in the Day of the Lord of the Time of the End. That by inclusion makes it a part of the series of Parables in regard to the Day of the Lord, as well as to the Parable of the Kingdom of God. Because of this, it is very necessary to come to understand this Parable and to be able to comprehend it s meaning for us. I have heard many people proclaim that no one will know the Day that the Lord will physically return to the earth. They base that conclusion on the statement that the Lord said that no one knows the Day nor the Hour of the Coming of the Son of Man. However, this statement is in itself part of the answer to the Parable of the Day and the Hour. We can clarify very quickly that there is absolutely no question whatsoever in regard to the very day that Jesus will physically return to the earth. For the Lord set that date in solid concrete in Daniel 12:11, as being exactly 1,290 days after the Antichrist establishes the Abomination of Desolation in the Temple in Jerusalem. Thus, there is not one shred of question that we will know to the very day when the physical return of Jesus to the earth will be. Therefore we are also left with an unanswered question, What did the Lord mean that no man would know the Day and the Hour of the coming of the Son of Man? Clearly that statement is referencing something quite different than the physical return of Jesus whose date is given with absolute clarity in Daniel 12:11. The very reason that the Antichrist will bring the armies of the world together at Armageddon is to fight against Jesus at the time of His scheduled return. The Antichrist will know exactly the day of the return of the Lord to the earth, and he is going to gather the armies of the world to fight against the Lord. The Battle over Israel is going to happen in the near future, and it should be just before the Midnight hour of the Day of the Lord. That Ezekiel 38 battle of Israel has nothing whatsoever to do with the Battle of Armageddon when the Antichrist gathers the armies of the world to fight against the Lord at His scheduled return. (We will consider this Ezekiel 38 battle over Israel later in this Writing, and we will see from Scripture that this occurs earlier and before the Antichrist is revealed. The Bible reveals that there will actually be another battle over Israel that will occur in the Time of the first half of the Trumpet Judgments, and that Battle is after the great Battle of Ezekiel 38. Israel will fall into the hands of the Europeans at that time). Daniel 12:11 11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. Let us look at this issue of the Day and the Hour more quickly by getting to the heart of the issue. In the Parables that include the phrasing of the Day and the Hour, the Lord is referring to times that are to occur in the timing of the Evening and the Night of the Day of the Lord. That is the time that is between Sunset and Sunrise of the Day of the Lord, and it is not the Morning and the Day times of the Day of the Lord, or the times between Sunrise and Sunset. I will explain this in a moment, but first consider that the Key to these parables is that there are three repeating representations present. These are the following: (1) The Day; (2) The Hour; and (3) the Father. The Lord is saying that only the Father knows. He is also saying that we will not know two things: The Day and The Hour. We also must remember that the Lord was not addressing people who had received His Words. They also did not yet have the Parables of His Words that are within the Scriptures opened to them. Thus, the Lord was speaking to people who were like us, as we did not know the Words of God and we were unable to unlock the Understanding of the Parables of the Bible. In these Parables the Lord was also addressing another central theme to His ministry that we seem to overlook. He was addressing the timing of our visitation. To help you understand this as being important, please remember why the Lord wept over Jerusalem. It was because they were not aware of the Timing of their Visitation. Jesus had come to His people as the Son of Man, and most of them had rejected Him. Jesus wept for them because this was the time of their day the time of their visitation. It was the time that the Father had ordained that they were to hear Him or it will be required of them. That is why Jesus wept. They had received their invitation to hear His Words and to feast on them, and they had not heard Him nor did they desire to hear Him clearly. These people did not know the Day nor the Hour of when the Words of God that judges them would come to them, and they had rejected the invitation of the King to hear His Words and believe on them. Jesus wept because these people had not obeyed God and by their own actions of rejecting His Words when the Father had bought it near to them, they were condemning themselves at their Day of Judgment, whenever it would come. The Lord says that if we do not hear His Words then we are not of God and we will be cast out into the Outer Darkness. Because these people had not watched and paid attention to the Scriptures, they did not understand the sign and could not recognize the invitation. Luke 19: Now as He drew near, HE SAW THE CITY AND WEPT OVER IT, 42 saying, "If you had known, even you, ESPECIALLY IN THIS YOUR DAY, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. 43 For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, 44 and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, BECAUSE YOU DID NOT KNOW THE TIME OF YOUR VISITATION." Deuteronomy 18:18-19 (It is a LAW OF GOD to hear HIS WORDS) 18 I will raise up for them a Prophet (Jesus) like you from among their brethren, and will put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. 19 And it shall be that whoever will not hear My Words, which He speaks in My name, I WILL REQUIRE IT OF HIM.

46 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace John 8:47 He who is of God hears God s Words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God. John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure. If these people would have obeyed God and had written His Words (Not the Bible, but the Words of God) on the posts of their doors, then they may have been able to remind themselves of the Times and the Signs. But they did not honor God and obey His Primary Law of man, to honor Him. God is His Words and His Words are God, thus if we do not keep His Words and obey this Law, then we are trampling upon the First Commandment of God. This is very serious now that the Words of God have been opened. Obedience to this law is not going to get you into heaven by itself; but it was given to us by God as a commandment so as to help us keep our minds and souls pointed towards Him, and to enable the Spirit to work within us diligently. If God gave it to us as a Law, then if we want to be diligent towards God s counsel, we must obey this Law of God. For you do not know the Day nor the Hour of your visitation. Deuteronomy 6:4-9 4 "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord! 5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul, and with all your might. 6 And these Words which I command you this day shall be upon your heart; 7 and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 8 And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 And you shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates." In that passage of Luke 19:41-44 we see the very first real clue to the answer to the Parable of the Day and the Hour of the Lord. Take notice that the Lord does not say that they had been given the time of the Hour, but He is saying that by now they should have known the Day of their visitation. For the majority of the Jews residing in Jerusalem, their hour would be when the Lord was on trial and being hung onto the Cross. The hour of the Priests, Scribes, and Pharisees, would have come earlier, as they were of greater knowledge and position in regard to the Word, and yet when they heard of His teachings they rebelled against Him and plotted to kill Him. They even blasphemed against the Holy Spirit residing within Him. The Day of their calling was when the Lord came speaking the Words of God. The Day was the time of His ministry to the Jews. The Hour is the individual calling of each person. The hour is that moment when the Word of the Lord is spoken to them in clarity, or revealed to them through acts of Good Works done by the Father. Consider the following chart, and it should begin to clear up the issue of the Day and the Hour. January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 45 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

47 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Matthew 24: "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. 42 Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. 43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Mark 13: "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; 25 the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. 26 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. 27 And then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven. 28 "Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 29 So you also, when you see these things happening, know that it is near--at the doors! 30 Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My Words will by no means pass away. 32 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. 34 It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. 35 Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming--in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning (In the Jewish Day these are the names given to the times of the four night watches: Evening Watch is Sundown to 9:00 PM; Midnight Watch is from 9:00 PM until Midnight; the Crowing of the Rooster is the Time of Midnight to 3:00 AM, and the Time of the Morning is the Time from 3:00 AM to Sunrise. Thus, the overall time of this Parable is the time from Sundown to Sunrise. This is therefore not the same timing as for the physical return of Jesus that will occur in the midst of the Day of the Day of the Lord 3:00 PM. This verse tells us that there are some who will not be called before the Midnight Hour, for they had never heard the Word of God and they will likely be the new repenters who witness all that the Works of God are doing. They will be like the Men of Nineveh who did not know of God clearly, but, when they heard, they repented diligently in sackcloth and even they made their animals to fast. It seems that the Bible reveals that those may be let into the Rapture even if they receive His Words after the Midnight Hour. But, the Parable of the Ten virgins shows that the present day church and those who have been in the church at some previous time, must come to Him before the Midnight Hour to be let into the Wedding Hall with the sealed who are awaiting the Rapture. We are to respond at our time of being called, whether it is before Midnight Hour or after. For if we reject our visitation and turn down our invitation, then the Lord says in Luke 14:24 that we will not taste of His Food, and that means that we will not get eternal Life, for it is the Word of God that sweeps us clean, and it is the Word of God that also judges us). 36 lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!" Luke 21:34-36 But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and THAT DAY (The Day of the Lord that began in June 2003) come on you unexpectedly. FOR IT WILL COME AS A SNARE ON ALL THOSE WHO DWELL ON THE FACE OF THE WHOLE EARTH. Watch therefore, and pray always THAT YOU MAY BE COUNTED WORTHY to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man. (In this Parable the Lord is telling us that the Parable of the Day and Hour concurs with Mark 13:32-37, that the times are relating to the events that shall occur prior to the Morning and Day of the Day of the Lord. For the Lord says that the Day and Hour will be those times prior to the times of the Trumpet and Bowl Judgments. The Lord says so that they may be counted worthy to escape in the event that is called the Rapture, and that occurs as part of the 6 th Seal Judgment, that is just prior to the seventh Seal Judgment). Let me try to summarize this issue of understanding the Day and the Hour of the Lord s coming. The Day and the Hour are two events. The Day is the Day of the Lord s visitation. In this Writing, I have shown you that the Words of God are God, and that the Words of God are now opened. That was the event that is known as the 1 st Seal Judgment. For the Bow is the symbol of the Glory of the Lord (Ezekiel 1:28), and the Words of God always come with the full measure of the Spirit of God, and it is the Spirit that raises you up to Eternal Life. The Lord says in John 6:63 that His Words are Spirit and they are Life. The Words of God the Word of Truth come with the Promise of God embedded within them to raise you to Eternal Life if you keep His Words. To keep His Words means that you are not a hearer of His Words only, but that you are a doer of His Words. A doer of His Words is a person who uses them to ask the Father to do a Good Work for someone else. An example of this is the early church of Jerusalem. It is said in documents that upon their water drinking cups, they placed a Greek Word whose meaning was may you live. Thus, it is that when someone came into their house and they gave them a drink of water, they were simultaneously, and quietly, without saying anything verbally, asking the Father to open this persons mind to His Words so that they might receive of the Living Waters. They were being Doers of His Word Water. They were asking the Father to do this Good Work for others so that this person might receive the understanding of His Word, the Word Water, for in every Word of God is His Spirit and is Life. Thus, they were asking God to give this person Eternal Life by receiving His Word that sweeps us clean. Jesus did this for the Disciples the Night before their great testing, and all of His disciples made it through the Night of the Lord s Arrest, Trial, and Crucifixion, without being led away by Satan. The only one who was lost was Judas Iscariot, the disciple whom He did not wash the feet of. The Lord tells us that Satan had asked to sift Peter thoroughly, but the Lord had also asked the Father to keep Peter, and not only Peter, by the washing of their feet with the Water. Jesus was doing the way of the Words of God to save His disciples from being led into temptation in the Night of their great trial. In this, our Lord was asking God to keep them for Eternal Life.

Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 46 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

48 Now getting back to the Day and the Hour. The Day of the Lord came as a snare on all of us because we were not watching and we had failed to hear the Lord and the Words that He spoke. The Day of the Lord is referring to our time of visitation when the Words of God are opened to us and we are left without excuse. For the Jews the Day of the Lord occurred at the time of Jesus ministry on earth. They rejected Him and they would not hear His Words, and thus from that time they are under a dark cloud. For the Torah speaks well that the Jews were to be watching for the Messiah to come and that He would come speaking the Words of God (Deuteronomy 18:18-19). Thus, the Jews have remained with blinders on and they are judged by their Words, and by their opportunity to receive the Words of God. Since the time of the Disciples and the Apostles, the church and the Jews have been under the same Grace. But, in June 2003 that changed, for the Words of God were again opened, this time for the Gentiles. However, all Jews can receive the Words of God as well. However, the Jews will have to receive the Words with great sorrow and regret like the people of Nineveh. For the Jews have had the time of their visitation, and therefore for them to get in to the Rapture they will have to repent and show the Lord of their great disappointment for ignoring Him all these years. No one has had the resources of materials that the Jewish people have enjoyed for learning of their Messiah. However, it can also be accredited as honor to them that there is no nation of people who have been more persecuted during the last 2,000 years. Therefore they have the same opportunity and right of repenting and seeking His Grace to keep them safe and secure until His coming in the Time of the Night. The Lord says that only the Father knows the Day. This portion of the Parable is now made known for the when the words of God were opened it was the beginning of the Day the beginning of our Time of Visitation. In the Time of Visitation we are to seek His Words and to hear Him. If we hear Him and seek His Words then the Lord has promised that He will pour out His Spirit upon us and make His Words known to us. Every Word has a time of work and a work. Therefore if we learn the Word because the Lord has made it known to us, then we will know the Timing of the Day of the Lord. This is further testified to by the Lord s promise of John 16:13. In that verse the Lord says that when the Spirit of Truth has come that He will make known all Truth and tell us of things that are to come. This means that we will know the things that are to come. This is made known by the entrance of His Words that places the Spirit in us and gives us understanding that is the Knowledge of the Holy One the Set Apart One the God of Truth. Therefore we are able to determine the Day of the Lord by the date when He clearly opened the Words of God, and that was June 2003 when the First Writing on his Words was sent out to some church leaders and churches. In this Writing I have given you the way of the Day of the Lord, and in many other Writings revealed in the listing at the back of this Writing, you will be able to obtain additional information on the Day of the Lord. The understanding of the Hour is a little more different. The Hour is the time of your personal Calling. It is likened to the Seven Letters to the Churches of Revelation chapters 2-3. The Hour is addressed to each of us individually. The name church in Greek means the called-out ones. It means that it is a time for each of us individually. We are judged individually, and we are judged by our words, for our words are also our works. If we have the Words of God and if we obey His instruction to use them to enable the Father to do Good for others, then our Words are also Works. The Earthly words of the world have no true power of doing Good Works for others. But, when we speak those same Words as Heavenly Words, then they take on supernatural power. Our Hour is the time when the Lord places us in the situation to have access to the Words of God being taught or made available to us to seek out. Jesus said that only the Father can bring anyone to hear His Words. Jesus said that no one came to Him except through the Father. We can understand this when we consider that the Words of God are the Father. For the Words of God are Spirit and God is Spirit. It is that moment when the Spirit that is within the Words of God that we have heard and that are found in our minds, stirs us up and tells us to take notice that the Words of God are opened and we should hear Him. It is that yearning feeling that is calling out from within side of us, that we need to seek more knowledge of His Words. When we feel that calling of the Spirit, that is the time of our Hour, for it is the time of our invitation. We need to pay close attention to this that I am telling you right now: In Luke 14:24 the Lord warns us that if we do not receive His invitation when it is offered to us, then we will never taste of His food, and that means that we will find ourselves being cast into one of His prisons in the Outer Darkness. There is no exception to this ruling given within the Scriptures. The Lord told us in Deuteronomy 18:19 that if we refuse to hear His Words refuse His invitation when it is given to us then this defiance will be required of us. In Hebrews 10:25-31 the apostle Paul tells us that if we refuse to receive the knowledge of Truth when it has been received, then we are trampling upon the Spirit of Grace and that the Lord will take His vengeance upon us. The Hour of our calling will come at anytime from the sunset that begins the Jewish Day of the Lord, and it can come at anytime up to the time just before the sunrise. The Lord is letting us know that all of His church should come to their time of invitation prior to the Midnight Hour. This is exampled by the Parable of the Ten Virgins, wherein the virgins are symbolic of the people of His church. They all knew before the Midnight Hour that they were to store up oil. Half of them did and half of them did not. They all had heard the invitation and had actually obtained some oil. The five wise virgins worked harder and they had stored up more oil in their vessels than the unwise virgins. Thus, the wise virgins were ready when the Lord came at the Midnight Hour to check all of them to see if they were worthy of Him. He had the Holy Angels to seal up the Worthy, but they removed the oil from the vessels of the unworthy, the unwise virgins, and added it to the vessels of the worthy virgins. The unwise virgins were able to repent and eventually after seeking the Lord diligently, they again received oil during the Time of the Night; but because they had January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 47 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

49 not been ready at the Midnight Hour, they were not invited into the Rapture, and they became the left behind who will have to go through the troubles of the Trumpet and Bowl Judgments. There will be others who will receive their calling after the Midnight Hour, and it is possible that they will make the rapture if after their hour has come, that they will seek Him diligently. But, these are the people who did not know the Bible and had not heard the Good News. I am saying that it may be that they may be able to get into the Rapture. I state this because of the Lord s warning of Mark 4: I have not found Scriptural evidence that they will be found among the Rapture that will occur before the Trumpet Judgments, but God is a great God, and we must remember the way of the Father when He sent Jonah to Nineveh. The Lord changed His mind of these people s destruction when they turned, believed His Word, and were very diligent to seek Him as a people. Thus, if these people do not receive their invitation until during the two watches of the Time of the Night, then they have the right because of what the Lord did for the men of Nineveh, to be included in the Rapture. And the Lord said that the men of Nineveh will be standing in judgment against us. Therefore these called in the Time of the Night have the justification to call out to the Lord if they seek Him diligently, and ask to allowed into the Rapture for they will have just received the understanding of the Words of God for the first time, and they did not reject Him. This should help us to understand the Day and the Hour, and also to understand why we can now understand it, for the Father has revealed it, for the Father is His Words that He has opened, and His Spirit is Truth and reveals all Truth and tells us of things that are to come. If You Want His Grace You Best Be Watching Take notice that in these Scriptures, the Lord is making it clear that there is a short time left for us and that we have been required to be on the Watch for His coming. The Lord has made this very clear in such verse as Mark 4:37. Peter instructed us of this Day of the Lord that we are to wake-up and be alert. For Peter said we are to be serious and be watchful in our prayers 1 Peter 4:7. 1 Peter 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand; therefore BE SERIOUS AND WATCHFUL in your prayers. As the Lord proclaimed in Amos 8:14, a Famine of the Word is coming. It will come after the Midnight Hour when the Lord has come with His Holy Angels to Seal with His Spirit all those who are Worthy and to take His Word from the unworthy. Are you ready for that event to come? The Lord says in Revelation 3:2 that if we have not obeyed His command to Watch, then we will not be found Worthy. In Mark 13:37 and Luke 21:36 the Lord commanded all us of these Last Days to Watch. He did not give to us an option to Watch. He commanded us ALL to WATCH! If we do not Watch then we will not be counted worthy to escape all the things that He says are coming upon the earth. Mark 13: But of that day and hour no one knows (This is the day and hour in the time of the Seal Judgments when the Father gives the command to remove His Spirit from those who did not watch and pray, it is the judgment day for the righteous, and the day understanding is taken away from the minds of the proud and the complacent Christians, for if we do not turn and repent God will come early and curse the earth), neither the angels in heaven, not the Son, but only the Father. Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is. It is like a man going to a far country, which left his house and gave authority to his servants, and each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch. Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning lest coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch! Revelation 3:1-4 And to the angel of the church in Sardis (The church who receives His Words in these days, but is acting complacent, and has not become zealous for Him) write, These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. Be watchful and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you. You have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white, for they are worthy. Luke 21:34-36 But take to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation (wasted activities), drunkenness (the wine, or luxuries of this world), and cares of this life (building your house in this world), and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. WATCH therefore, and PRAY always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man. Watching is not looking up at the sky and waiting for the return of Jesus. Though that is a perfectly wonderful thing to do, the action of Watching is entirely different. The Time of the Seals is referred to as the Time of Night in which the Lord may return at any moment to seal those found worthy that they may escape all the things that are to come, and so that they will be taken up in the Rapture before the Trumpet and the Bowl Judgments. Watching is meditating on the Words of God and the Scriptures so that you may come into understanding of His mighty Works, and that you will come to know the ways of the Lord. The Lord says in Proverbs 1:23 that if we turn at His reproof and we seek Him, that surely He will pour out His Spirit on us and make His Words known to us. In Psalm 119:130 we learn that the entrance of His Words gives Light and it gives understanding to the simple. Paul said that it was the desire of the Father that everyone comes to the Knowledge of the Truth. Paul warns us not to be always learning and never come into the knowledge of the Truth, for the Lord will come as a thief in the night at a time when we are not expecting, and He will select the worthy, and cut off all the complacent people from His ear. The Lord promises us that if we are found watching when He returns then we will be greatly blessed. January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 48 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

50 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Luke 12:37 BLESSED ARE THOSE SERVANTS, WHOM THE MASTER, WHEN HE COMES WILL FIND WATCHING. Assuredly, I say to you that He will gird Himself and have them sit down to eat, and will come and serve them. (Those who are watchmen shall be blessed by receiving the Words of God and Understanding and power). Revelation 3:20 20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone HEARS My voice (He speaks the Words of God that are all Truth) AND opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. (This is the continuous revelations of knowledge He gives to us as meat of His Word and the bread of Instruction). The following is a list of requirements from the Scriptures as the necessity for us to be found among the worthy: WATCH and PRAY TAKE UP YOUR CROSS LOVE HIM MORE THAN FAMILY CRY TO THE LORD TO BRING JUSTICE Luke 21:35-36 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. WATCH therefore, and PRAY always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man. Revelation 3:2-3 2 I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. Be watchful and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before God. Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. 3 Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you. You have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white, for they are worthy. Matthew 10:37-38 He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take up his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. Luke 14:27 And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple (will not receive His Words). Matthew 10:37-38 He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take up his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. Luke 18:22, 24 You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have and distribute among the poor, and you will have treasures in heaven; and come, follow Me. How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God! (You cannot love the world s riches more than God). Zephaniah 2:1-3 Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together, O shameless nation, Before the decree is issued, before the day passes like chaff, before the Lord's fierce anger comes upon you, before the Day of the Lord's anger comes upon you! Seek the Lord, all you meek of the earth, WHO HAVE UPHELD HIS JUSTICE. Seek righteousness, seek humility. IT MAY BE THAT YOU WILL BE HIDDEN in the Day of the Lord's anger. (You must desire Justice more than peace). DO NOT LEAD THE INNOCENT ASTRAY Matthew 18:14 It is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish. (You cannot allow abortions and be among the worthy). Matthew 18:10 Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones. Matthew 18:6 But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone was hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea. (You cannot allow false teaching or false creation teaching and be among the worthy). INCREASE IN KNOWLEDGE Proverbs 1:29-33 Turn at My reproof: Surely I will pour out My Spirit on you. I will make My Words known to you. Because I have called and you refused. I have stretched out My hand and no one regarded. Because you disdained all My counsel, and would have none of My reproof, I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes. When your terror comes like a storm, and your destruction comes like a whirlwind. When distress and anguish come upon you. Then they will call upon Me, BUT I WILL NOT ANSWER; they will seek Me diligently (After the Midnight Hour, they will seek His knowledge, but it will be too late), but they will not find Me. Because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord, they would have none of My counsel, and would have none of My reproof. THEREFORE they shall eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled to the full with their own fancies. For the turning away of the simple will slay them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them. BUT whoever listens to Me will dwell safely, and will be secure without fear of evil. (You are required to have a heart to increase in knowledge and do it). We are in the Time of the Evening It is the Time of the Abundance of Light We must wakeup and become alert to do what God has called us to do, and that is to hear Him. We were told to watch and be alert, but we were found sleeping. I have given you enough Scriptures that a child should be able to understand that we indeed in the times that are known in the Bible as the Day of the Lord. The Lord has told us to be watchful and to pray. We must wake up and prepare ourselves for we are now in the time of our Judgment. We must begin to obey the Lord and watch to discern Truth so that we can increase in knowledge not only of Him, but also of all things that are being done around us. As is pointed out in the chart of Understanding In Zechariah 14:6-7 we are told that in the time of the Evening that there will be Light, but that in the Day of the Day of the Lord the Glorious Ones of the Lord will diminish. In Psalm 119:130 we were told that it is the entrance of His January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 49 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

51 Words that gives us Light, so we are able to know that the Time of the Evening will be a time when the Lord is pouring out the knowledge of His Words in abundance. Further, we can know that it is important that the Glorious Ones prepare themselves now so that they can escape the troubles of the Night and the tribulations of the Day, for the Lord warns us that in the Day of the Day of the Lord that His Glorious Ones who are left behind to face those tribulations, that they will be persecuted and that their number will be diminished. The Jewish day begins from the evening time until sundown of the next day. This is why the Day of the Lord begins in the Evening Time. Within the Bible we are told that in the Night Time of the Day of the Lord the Light will only be found among those who are sealed by the Lord (As being found to be not of the world), and in the Day of the Daytime of the Lord we see in this verses of Zechariah 14:6-7 that there will be no Light in the Daytime of the Day of the Lord. Zechariah 14:6-7 6 It shall come to pass in that day that there will be no Light; the glorious ones (Most Bibles translate this as lights, but its meaning is the Glorious Ones who have light ) will diminish (At the Midnight Hour they will have their oil removed. Also in the Morning of the Day of the Day of the Lord, there will come a Great Falling Away, and in the Day time of the Lord Day of the Lord the time from 12:00 noon until sunset - the Antichrist will cause all those who refuse to take His mark to become martyrs for God). 7 It shall be one day which is known to the Lord Neither day nor night. But at Evening Time it shall happen that it will be Light. John 9:1-5 Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a blind man who was blind from birth. And His disciples asked Him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents that he was born blind? Jesus answered, Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the Works of God should be revealed in him. I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is the day (We were in the day that was preceding the Day of the Lord, but THE Night is coming that is of the Day of the Lord); the Night is coming when no man can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world (When the Lord is removed from us Proverbs 1:23-33, then He will no longer hear us and the unworthy will not be able to hear Him, then there will be no light for the complacent and the wicked). To help you to understand that it is very important for us to hear the Lord and come into the knowledge that the Day of the Lord began with the opening of His Words, we should carefully consider passages of Scripture from Ezekiel chapter 36 and 2 Thessalonians chapters 1-3. To understand Ezekiel chapter 36 it is important to first understand the January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 50 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

52 knowledge of Truth, for it helps us to unlock the meaning of this Parable of the Lord. In this Writing we have explain the meaning of the Word Truth. Truth is all things created by God. Truth is all the works of God. Truth is all of the laws that are promises of God. To understand Truth we have to believe in the Writings of Moses and the Words of God. Jesus tells this to us in John 5: Consider that a name is the symbolic meaning of the Work that the Person is to do. For example when the Lord changed Saul s work that He was ordained to do from the time of Creation, the Lord changed his name from Saul to Paul. When the Lord changed Jacob s name to Israel, it was because the Lord changed the work that he had been given as his inheritance at the time of Creation, to being the heir to birth the nation of God s people. One of God the Father s names is Good and He does Good. One of the name s of our Lord it Truth and He is the King of Truth. Another of our Lord s names is The Word, and He speaks forth the Word of God. A name is the representation of the work that we are given to do. Since the Creation the Lord has known our inheritance and the time that we would be brought forth on the earth. The Lord can create us anew, like He did for Saul, Abram, and Sarai; or, we can pursue a calling that is in the will of God for us to do, such as the Lord granting the name change of Jacob to Israel, as Jacob diligently sought after the Lord for this blessing of a new name. Remember that on the 6 th day of Creation the Lord blessed each of us. The Bible says that at that time He gave us our inheritance, our season upon the earth, and our calling. That means that God knew our name from the time of Creation, and He knew when we would be born. This is as David taught us in Psalm 139, that the Lord has recorded everything about us in the books of heaven. Jacob believed the Words of God and He received the blessing of a new name of higher calling. The Lord does not give any blessing without giving you all that is required to complete the works that He has assigned to your name. Jesus prayed to the Father to set us apart by His (God s) Name His Words. This is also why it is so important for us to believe the Writings of Moses, for we lose much of the blessing that is available to us; therefore, we also lose much of God s favor because of our lack of Knowledge. God gives Grace for grace; but, if we do not have knowledge of all Grace, then how can we do such grace? John 5: "If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true. 32 There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness which He witnesses of Me is true. 33 You have sent to John, and he has borne witness to the truth. 34 Yet I do not receive testimony from man, but I say these things that you may be saved. 35 He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light. 36 But I have a greater witness than John's; for the works which the Father has given Me to finish--the very works that I do--bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me. 37 And the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His Word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. 39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. 40 But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life. 41 "I do not receive honor from men. 42 But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you. 43 I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me (His Father s Name is the Words of God and the Good Works that He does); if another comes in his own name, him you will receive. 44 How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do not seek the honor that comes from the only God? 45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you--moses, in whom you trust. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me (Deuteronomy 18:18-19). 47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My Words?" Consider what the Lord revealed just before the text of John 5:31-47, that we have just reviewed. The Lord tells us that whoever hears His Words and believes in the Father who sent Him (Meaning believes in His Words that God is in His Words, and that He will do all the promises of these Words if we ask on Him to do them for others) has received the Promise of Eternal Life. He says that they have passed the judgment, for the Angels keep record of all Good Works and all efforts to diligently seek Good. Thus, these people will not be judged because they have the Spirit of Truth in them and are washed clean. The Holy Angels will see this and place His Seal on them so that no one can harm them and that they will receive all that they ask of God by His Words. It is a miracle promise that cannot be broken and that is more valuable than all of the world s rubies and treasures. The Judgment of God is Righteous, and we are told that those who are Righteous always do Good. John 5: "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My Word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. 25 Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live. 26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself, 27 and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. 28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice 29 and come forth--those who have done Good, to the resurrection of life (Note that He is saying that those who have DONE Good are assured to be raised to Eternal Life), and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation. 30 I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me. Proverbs 11:23 The desire of the Righteous is only Good. Proverbs 10:24 The desire of the righteous will be granted. (This is the same as is stated in John 15:7). John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 2 Timothy 3: All scripture (All of God s Prophetic Word has to agree with Scripture) is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all Good works.

53 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Proverbs 19:8 He who gets Wisdom loves his own soul; he who keeps Understanding WILL find Good. (It is a promise of God that He will open it to us if we diligently seek to receive Understanding, and that comes from the entrance of His Words in our hearts Psalm 119:130) Proverbs 2:1-6 1 My son, if You receive My Words, and treasure My commands within you, 2 so that you incline your ear to wisdom (Discern God's Words), and apply your heart to understanding (Seek Understanding Of The Ways The Lord Used The Words As He Was Shown By The Father); 3 yes, if you cry out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding, 4 if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures; 5 THEN you WILL understand the fear of the Lord, and FIND the knowledge of God. 6 For the Lord gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding. 7 He stores us sound Wisdom for the Upright; He is a shield to those who walk uprightly. 8 He guards the paths of Justice, equity and every Good path. Proverbs 9:12 If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, and if you scoff (At the Words of God and His Truth), you alone will bear it. Proverbs 14:6-7 6 A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not find it, but knowledge is easy to him who understands. 7 Go from the presence of a foolish man, when you do not perceive in him the lips of knowledge. John 10:25-38 (Full Text) 25 Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me. 26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand. 30 I and My Father are one." 31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. 32 Jesus answered them, "Many Good Works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?" 33 The Jews answered Him, saying, "For a Good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God." 34 Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I said, "You are gods"'? 35 If He called them gods, to whom the Word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken), 36 do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'? 37 If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me; 38 but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him (The Father is in Him within His Words, for Jesus was a doer of the Words of God. Those who receive His Words are like little gods for they have the authority to forgive and retain sins of others, and they are able to ask and the Father will do for them what they ask in Jesus Name)." 39 Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand. Let it be sure in your mind that the Lord does not consider it enough just to be able to identify His Words. The Lord requires that we not only know His Words, but that we increase in Understanding (That means that we increase in the Knowledge of God and His Works Proverbs 9:10), and that we then use these Words to do Good for others (Meaning that we do the way of the Words to enable the Father to do His Good Works for others Hosea 6:6). In this Writing I have given you two examples of the early Christian church doing this. The first is that they placed the fish sign on the posts of their doors. In this, every time a person would enter into their house, they had done the way of the Lord in asking of Him to teach His Words and to open Understanding of the Promises of God to this person. They were doing the way of His Word Door. I also told you how they asked the Lord to open the mind of anyone whom they gave a cup of water to the Words of God that are both Spirit and Life. They did this by putting the Greek Word for may you live on the drinking cup. Thus, every time some would drink from that cup, these people had already done the way of the Lord by placing that word on the cup. The Lord and His Holy Angels who look after His Words would see that Word on the cup, and without the leader of the house having to ask, the Lord would do for them what they had asked of Him by putting that Word on that cup. He would open the minds of that person and He would pour out His Spirit upon the person who drank from the cup and if they would receive the calling of His Spirit, He would open the words to them as the leader of the house spoke of His Words to the person who drank from the cup. The Words had to be done with knowledge and within the Will of God. But these things were in God s Will, because He had made it a law that His Words were to be on the posts of the Door, and that whoever comes into our house is to be taught the Words of God Deuteronomy 6:4-9; 11: If we do not do these things then we will have a very big surprise coming at our time of Judgment. Also we must remember to be careful that we are not seen to be doing these charitable deeds in front of men, or we will not receive any reward in heaven for it meaning that we would have no Grace from God coming for our grace that we have shown Matthew chapter 6. Consider what Jesus stated in Matthew 7:21. We have to seek first to receive the Kingdom of Heaven the Words of God with Understanding, then all these other Good things that we desire will be added unto us. Consider that not even the Angels in heaven just stand wait around. They know the Words of God and they speak them and watch over them. The key phrase is that they do the Words of God and they always do the Words within the Will of God. We must seek the Kingdom of Heaven, but we are not part of the Kingdom of heaven unless we are actively doing the way of the Kingdom of Heaven, and that way is to increase in the knowledge of God and to go forth doing His Words so that we are able to enable the Father to do His Good Works for others and in this be glorified. For the Father is glorified by doing His Words for others. You glorify Him by being a like little god for God does things for others and not himself. Matthew 7:21 Not everyone who says to me Lord, Lord, shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

54 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Matthew 6: "Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 3 But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4 that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly. 5 "And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 6 But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. 7 And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 "Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him. 9 In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. 10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. 14 "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. 16 "Moreover, when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance. For they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. 17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, 18 so that you do not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. 19 "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 22 "The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. 23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness! 24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. 25 "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? 28 "So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 "Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. Paul Explained that According to His Grace in Us We should Work in Faith It is important for us to understand that the Disciples and the Apostles of the early church knew the Words of God and they taught them. What we have missed understanding is that they explained this within their Writings, but to our eyes it has been like we have had blinders on, similar to the Jews, and we did not discern this important knowledge. This kept us from receiving the very fullness of Grace. In speaking to the bible teachers and preachers, the Lord told us in Hosea 4:6 that His people are destroyed by a lack of knowledge, and because we fail to teach our people knowledge, that He is going to reject them from being priests before Him. He adds to this that they have forgotten His Law, and that is why He is forgetting their children. Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. (Remember that Knowledge is the Knowledge of God, and that is called Understanding Proverbs 9:10. We receive Understanding by the entrance of His Words Psalm 119:130). BECAUSE YOU HAVE REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I also will reject you from being a priest before Me because you have forgotten the law of your God I also will forget your children. (It is a Mosaic Law that the Priests, Preachers, etc, must teach His Words to their children, the congregation, so that the congregation is able to teach His Words to their children Deuteronomy 6:4-9, 11:18:21, 18:18-19, and Psalm 78:1-9. It is very simple, when the preachers refuse to hear Him, and they do not hear His Words, then they are not of God, meaning that they are not doing the will of God Deuteronomy 18:18-19 and Isaiah 58, and this means that their children, the congregation, will be forgotten by God, and this also means that their children shall be forgotten by God). 7 The more they increased, the more they sinned against Me; I will change their glory into shame (Consider the churches of today. They are greatly increased in size and resources, yet the more the Lord has allowed for them to increase by people with itching ears who come to them being in love with their ways of false teachings and easy to hear words of promises of God s favor the flowing from their lips. They promise them that God wants to pour out His blessings upon them if they will just believe in their miracle. The Lord is saying that they go ahead an sin against Him by forgetting His first Law and the Law that they teach His Words and not these false teachings of favor of God being poured out on them without need to being obedient to His first Law. Every of these Preachers, Evangelists, Prophets, TV Hosts, Praise Leaders, Bible Scholars, Missionaries, Rabbis, Bishops, Sunday School Teachers, Bible Study Leaders, End Times Speakers, or any persons involved in teaching the Bible, the Lord is going to bring them into shame for their ignoring His Law of Deuteronomy 18:18-19, 6:4-9,and 11: They preach that the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the Righteous, but they do not see that they are in sin, thus they are counted among the wicked, and their wealth the Lord will take it and give it to a Preacher, Evangelist, Prophet, TV Host, Praise Leader, Bible Scholar, Missionary, Rabbi, Bishop, Sunday School Teacher, Bible Study Leader, End Times Speaker, or any person involved in teaching the Bible, who will obey His Law. They will be brought into shame because January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 53 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

55 they would not receive His knowledge, and nor would they teach His knowledge). 8 They eat up the sin of My people (The people desire to hear how they can treat God like a cash box, and to see how they can use His Laws to get wealth of the world); they set their heart on iniquity (A heart that is not set on obeying God s Law is set to find iniquity, for it is a sin to reject the knowledge of God when it is offered to them, and God has opened His Words and made knowledge freely available to those who desire to seek to do the Will of God and enable Good Works to be done for others. Like a fallen Democracy, they have now gone from complacency towards God until they have now set their hearts in apathy against God, with leading TV Evangelist driving Rolls Royce cars, flying private jets, and then lying by saying it is in the Will of God for this to be, when they are not even understanding of the Will of God for these days to hear His Words and teach them. This is why He is now going to bring them down to shame in front of all nations. For when He has called over the last 3.5 years, they have pridefully denied His Words and they have continued to walk in their blindness, believing that they are doing all the Will of God, and they have not heard His Words. The Lord says in John 8:47 that because they have not heard the Words of God, they are not of God; yet they continue to preach as if they are the elect of God. They do not see that they have not seen the Time of their visitation. They do not see that the Lord is about ready to vomit them out of His mouth and reveal their shame. If they want to avoid this shame then they must turn now at His reproof and become zealous for Him, and God will use them greatly. But, there are some TV End Times preachers who are in grave danger because they have been like Jannes and Jambres, and they have resisted the Truth. At least one even claims that He has received the Words, and yet He continues to walk in blindness with his pride. The Lord says that all of the Preachers, Evangelists, Prophets, TV Hosts, Praise Leaders, Bible Scholars, Missionaries, Rabbis, Bishops, Sunday School Teachers, Bible Study Leaders, End Times Speakers, or any persons involved in teaching the Bible, who reject the Truth will be made to be brought down ashamed, and they will never rise again 2 Timothy 3:1-9). 9 And it shall be like people, like priest. So I will punish them for their ways, and repay them for their deeds. (People, please wake-up. The Lord is saying he is going to punish you if you continue to support churches and teaching that are not teaching His Word. The Lord is saying that we are to not stay in those churches who will not teach the Knowledge of God and who trample upon the first Law of God. The Lord is saying to get up and tell those Preachers, TV Evangelists, TV Hosts, and all others who tech the Bible, to stop wasting God s time and His resources on teachings that are not increasing you in the knowledge of God that is only gained through the entrance of His Words. All other teachings are wrong in these days because our judgment is at hand. NOTHING IS THE SAME AS YESTERDAY FOR WE ARE NOW IN THE DAY OF THE LORD. The Lord is saying to stop watching the TV programs that do not teach His knowledge and that trample upon the first Law of God. The Lord is also shouting out for you to stop wasting His tithes, His offerings, His Gifts, and His seed offerings, into churches, into ministries, into TV programs, into books, into tapes, into music, into missions, and into TV movies that are not increasing your knowledge of God that comes only by the teaching of His Words. The Lord has told His servants and His churches through Prophecy after Prophecy that the people are to get up out of their seats and kneel in the aisle and call out to God to pour out His Spirit and cause knowledge to fall on their church, instead of allowing these ministers to continue teaching these empty messages that are not in His Will for these days when His Words are supposed to be taught in the churches. In like manner the Lord has told people to get up out of these church pews and go find a place where they teach His Words, or go home and start a worship service in their home that will teach His Words. The Lord promises that if you turn, if you repent, and if you call out to Him, then He shall surely pour the Spirit of Truth upon you and He will make His Words known to you. Your house can be the center of God s revival just like the homes were used in the teaching of His Words by the early church. This is not a time for you to continue being ignorant of God s warnings and His instructions. This is the most intelligent and richest group of people to ever live on the planet; yet we are seemingly the laziest and most ignorant. We also seem to have the least knowledge of God of all people in history. We have to wake-up for we are living in the Day of the Lord and everything has changed. There is no more Easy Grace. There is no blanket salvation without His Words. You do not love the Lord if you do not hear His Words that He spoke. It is a time to wake-up, or we will be punished for our complacency and our apathy. We are going to identically be punished for following and supporting church leaders whom the Lord is going to bring into shame and punishment. Are not your soul, your family s soul, and your friends soul, all hanging in the balance? Are you not accountable for the use of the talents and the resources that God has given you? Why are you supporting ministries and deeds that are not in the will of God for these days we are living in? If they do not turn, then get up, get out, and get started following the Lord diligently. His revival will come through you and all others who will hear Him. People, please, please, wake-up, for there is only three years left of this time of abundance where by the Grace of God He is ready to pour out His Spirit of Truth on those who will seek Him for knowledge of His Words. There is nothing in the teachings of these present ministries that is going to put that oil in your vessel that you will need to be found worthy at the Midnight Hour. Further, the Lord is saying in this verse that not only are you not getting fed the knowledge that you need, but because you waste your time and the resources that He has allowed you to have, in support of these teachers of lawlessness all those who do not honor His first Law are in lawlessness that He is going to also bring you down to shame just like He is going to bring them down to shame. In Proverbs 1:23-3 the Lord promises exactly the same thing for those who reject to come to His Great Supper and eat of His knowledge. He promises that they will get the fruit of their reward they will be caused to be ashamed because they would not believe His knowledge when it was put in front of them. In Luke 14:24 the Lord promises that all of those who reject His invitation to eat of His food His Words then they will never be able to taste of His food. That is serious because His Words are Spirit and they are Life, and we are judged by His Words. You will not receive Eternal Life if you have been invited to eat of His Words and you decide to continue chasing after Preachers, Evangelists, Prophets, TV Hosts, Praise Leaders, Bible Scholars, Missionaries, Rabbis, Bishops, Sunday School Teachers, Bible Study Leaders, End Times Speakers, or any persons involved in teaching the Bible, who do not teach His Words. This is serious. The Lord is never going to break His promise, and He has promised that this shame will be brought upon you. You can hate this messenger sent to you by the Lord, and you can reason that I speak in a Spirit of Fear; but, if you test these Scriptures then you will see that I am being honest and speaking to you with concern for you and not hate or fear, for the Spirit of God is passion, and I speak in a spirit of passion for your soul. I want you to drink from the cup of water that January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

56 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace gives you Life and not shame. People, we are in the Day of the Lord EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED and that complacent and apathetic teaching that you have been receiving is not going to get you, your family, and your friends ready for the call at the Midnight Hour. Remember that the Day has come, and your hour comes at the time that the Lord calls you to hear His Words. That is the moment that the Holy Angels record in their books what you decided to do with the Words of God that they guard, and that have His promises within). 10 For they shall eat, but not have enough (This is the coming Time of the Night, the Time of the 3 rd Seal Judgment. There is a famine of the Word coming. After the Midnight Hour you will read the Bible zealously, but the Lord will not let you into the Rapture, and you can read the Scriptures, and because you never gained instruction you will not be able to enable His miracles, because in the Night He tells us in Proverbs 1:23-33 that He will not longer hear your prayers and your cries, for you rejected to eat His Words during the Great Supper of the Evening Time of the Day of the Lord). They shall commit harlotry, but not increase. (They shall put seed money and gifts into False Prosperity teachings, but they will not be given any reward for the Lord has promised that if the people do not turn, that in the Time of the Night, all those nations of people who have not turned in the Evening, will fall into Economic Collapse, and their seed offerings will be like dust blown in the wind. THE Lord says that harlotry the desire for prosperity of the things of the world is a spirit, and evil spirit, and it is causing us to stray Hosea 4:12). BECAUSE THEY HAVE CEASED OBEYING THE LORD. (The Lord has told us that His Words are to be heard, and that if we do not hear them then we are not of God. The Lord has told us that at the time of our visitation that if we as a nation do not turn to His knowledge and correct our paths, then we are going to have all these bad things to fall upon us. These days are deadly serious days, for we are deciding our eternal destiny, and yet we go on focusing upon obtaining wealth of the world that is soon to be destroyed in our days. We continue doing exactly like the people in Noah s days, and yet we think that this is perfectly good and normal. God has told us to go to and fro and increase in knowledge of God. He has told us to straighten out our national ship and put it back onto the foundation of righteousness. The Lord has told us that if we do not, then we will be like Israel destroyed by the Romans, and all of its churches will be emptied, or thy will teach ecumenical mixed religions that is corrupt before the eyes of God, and for it He will destroy us. The Lord is promising to not give us His Grace if we do not change. Our only source for obtaining the Grace of God is to obey His Law hear His Words, increase in Knowledge, and go forth to teach and to do Good Works. If not the Lord has promised that we will be brought down to shame). John 14:23,24 Jesus answered and said to him, If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word (You do not honor the First Commandment if you do not love God, and if you will not hear His Words it means that you are disobedient to His Law that says not only must you hear His Words, you must preach, teach, and do His Words, which is actually the meaning of keeping His Words. I do not wish to be rude, but this is addressing every Preacher, Evangelist, Prophet, TV Host, Praise Leader, Bible Scholar, Missionary, Rabbi, Bishop, Sunday School Teacher, Bible Study Leader, End Times Speaker, or any person involved in teaching the Bible. For all of them are presently breaking this law. In Hebrews 10:25-31 the Apostle Paul warns us that when the knowledge of Truth has been received I the Day of the Lord, that there is no longer a sacrificial covering of the blood for this willful sin of breaking the First Commandment. Now the only sacrifice that is acceptable to God for the forgiveness of this sin is the increasing in knowledge of God and teaching the people of His Words, for that is doing a Good Work for the Lord, and the Lord says that He desires this more than sacrifices and burnt offerings); and the Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him (Note: It is saying that they the Father and the Son - will come as the Spirit of Truth and reside in those who have received His Words). He who does not love Me does not keep MY WORDS; and the Word which you hear is not Mine but the Father s who sent Me. (Do you hear the Words of God, or are you still as a child, and not ready to be mature in God? The Lord says that the Words of God are forever and that they will not pass away. This means that even n the Eternity to come the Words of God will remain as they are, as they are already fully perfect. This is not like man. For when we are resurrected we will come into greater knowledge, and this knowledge of God that we have today will seem as like it is as a child. and that it is not mature at all. Thus, if we receive His Words and do them, then we are receiving the knowledge of God and doing the Good Works of God that are already matured and perfected. Considering this we can understand Paul In 1 Corinthians 13: Paul says, 10But when that which is perfect (complete) has come (the Words of God have been opened), then that which is in part will be done away. 11when I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things (Put away other teachings of God that are not mature knowledge and began to teach the Words of God that gives us that knowledge of God that is mature). John 14:16-17 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper (The Spirit of Truth who makes known all Truth to those who seek to understand His Words), that He may abide with you forever-- the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. (The world cannot receive His Words, and the Father does not call them to receive His Words, for they do not desire in their hearts to hear the voice of God). Luke 11:52 Woe to you lawyers! For YOU HAVE TAKEN AWAY THE KEY OF KNOWLEDGE (They refuse to teach His Words that gives understanding of the way of His Words and the promises in His Words through which we are able to increase our knowledge so that we are able to enable the Lord to do His Good Works for others as we ask this of Him). You did not enter in yourselves, and those who were entering you have hindered. Now consider this carefully and you will see the problem that every Preacher, Evangelist, Prophet, TV Host, Praise Leader, Bible Scholar, Missionary, Rabbi, Bishop, Sunday School Teacher, Bible Study Leader, End Times Speaker, or any person involved in teaching the Bible, has between themselves and the Lord in these very days. They believe that they are rich in the Spirit and perfect in worshiping the Lord, but they have forgotten their first Love God. The very first commandment is that they are to love the Lord God with all their hearts, with all their soul, and with all their mind, but they do not do so. They are to honor God and they are to teach His Words to their children or their congregation if you are a church leader, teacher, or speaker. Today we trample upon the Grace of God and our pride keeps us from hearing the Lord s warning. In other Writings I have explained the letters of the Lord given to the 7 January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 55 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

57 churches, and all of theses letters reveal that all the churches have forgotten the Law of God, and therefore in this the times of the Seal Judgments the Lord is going to reject every Preacher, Evangelist, Prophet, TV Host, Praise Leader, Bible Scholar, Missionary, Rabbi, Bishop, Sunday School Teacher, Bible Study Leader, End Times Speaker, or any person involved in teaching the Bible, the Lord is going to reject everyone of them who will not turn, repent, and be born again by His Word and be saved from their sins of breaking the First Commandment of God and for failing to teach knowledge to His people. For the Lord says that they have forgotten the Law of God, that they are commanded to hear His Words and teach them to their children and all those in their house. Today, even when I speak of the Words, and even when I tell preachers about His Words, they still have not taken action to obey God and to stop sinning against the very first commandment of God. They do not think that they are in sin, and they are filled with their own wisdom. They may be great men, but that is not going to get them or their congregation into the Kingdom of Heaven. Consider the Lord s warning to the lukewarm Church of Laodicea, or His warning to that almost perfect Church of Ephesus. Without either of them coming out of their blindness and seeing that they have lost their first Love to honor the Word of God they will both be cast out. Paul calls out in Romans 10:1-21 that the Lord desires for His Preachers, Evangelists, Prophets, TV Hosts, Praise Leaders, Bible Scholars, Missionaries, Rabbis, Bishops, Sunday School Teachers, Bible Study Leaders, End Times Speakers, or any persons involved in teaching the Bible, to come into the Knowledge of Truth and to teach His Words and open Words of Understanding to His people. We need our religious leaders to hear the Lord and go to and fro to seek after His Words, and then to teach them to His people and guide them on how to come into knowledge of His Words. If not, then how are His people going to be ready at the Midnight Hour? Also how will they know where to turn when the Hour of their invitation has come for them to hear and receive His Words? Romans 10: Brethern, my heart s desire and prayer to God for Israel (And now that His Words are opened for America and all Gentiles and Jews alike) is that they may be saved. 2 For I bear them witness (As I bear witness to the Gentiles and Jews of today) that they have a zeal for God but not according to knowledge. 3 For they being ignorant of God s righteousness (They are ignorant of His Law of Deuteronomy 18:18-19, 6:4-9, 11:18-21, but now that His Words are opened they have no excuse for their sin of ignorance, for the entrance of His Words gives Understanding and in Proverbs 1:23 the Lord has promised that if they turn to Him that He will pour out His Spirit upon them and make His Words known to them), and seeking to establish their own righteousness (As His last days churches of these last days are now doing), have not submitted to the righteousness of God (They have not heard the Law of God in Deuteronomy 18:18-19 that they are to hear His Words and to believe in His Works, and thus they have established their own way of godliness that is without power and is in disobedience to His Law of His Words that He has now opened to us). 4 For Christ is the end of the Law for righteousness (It is Jesus Christ who came and died upon the Cross so that He could return with the authority of the Father to open the Words of God to us, and it is Jesus who gives instruction that gives us understanding and the knowledge of God) to everyone who believes (This is those who hear His Words and they believe; and also they see Him doing the Words of God and they believe). 5 For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law (Moses reveals that man must hear His Words and become teachers and doers of His Words Deuteronomy 18:18-19), "The man who does those things shall live by them." (His Words are Spirit and they are Life, and if we live by them we have the Promise of God to be raised to Eternal Life Ephesians 1:13-14 and many other verses) 6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (That is, to bring Christ down from above) 7 or, "'Who will descend into the abyss?'" (That is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The Word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the Word of faith which we preach) (The Word of Faith is the Words of God, His Word Truth. Paul is saying that faith comes by His Words, and thus he is saying that they are preaching the Words of God. THE early Christians placed the Greek word for may you live on their water drinking cups and wine cups. They did this because they desired those with whom they spoke with to live by asking the Father to stir up His Spirit within these people so that they might desire to receive His Words that are Life and give all understanding): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. (You cannot confess the Lord Jesus in these days without revealing the purpose for which the Lord has sent Him into the World to speak His Words and to do His Good Works. In Deuteronomy 18:18-19, the Father warns us that Jesus was being sent to speak the Words of God and if we did not hear Him then we will be held into account for our lack of knowledge and for our lack of honoring Him, as is required of us by the primary Law of God given to us in Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and Deuteronomy 11: The Father raised the Lord Jesus from the dead by His Word and for the purpose of fulfilling all things that Jesus could return from heaven the same day as His resurrection and to open His Words to us and enable us to understand the parables of the Scriptures, so that we would be saved and that we could convince others to receive Him with His Words of Understanding). 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (The doing of the Words and the teaching of the Words is what gives us the assurance of salvation that we are truly seeking). 11 For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame." (But, those who do not believe on Him and the Words He spoke, will be brought to shame). 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. (The Lord has opened His Words now to all the people of the world, Gentile and Jews alike, and we are able to all be filled to the full with the true richness that is the Pearl of very Great Price). 13 For "whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Before we can say that we have called on the name of Jesus, we have to learn what the Word of God means: Name. That is where we fail. Now that the Words of God are opened, we have no excuse for our lack of knowledge, for the Lord is freely giving out His knowledge to all who will call upon Him. In this Writing I have briefly explained the heavenly meaning of Name, and you will also be able to understand this in more detail from the Writing The 153 Words of God, the Word: Name. The meaning of Name is all of the works and authority that God has given us to do. In this case Jesus was given all of the Words of God and all Understanding. Thus, if we believe in His January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 56 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

58 Words and His Sayings, then it is that we are able to call on His name according to knowledge. We are judged by our words, and that means that if we have the Words of God in us and we use them as Jesus did, then we can know that we are saved. On the other hand, if we do not do this in these days when the Knowledge of the Glory of the Lord is available in abundance, and if we have chosen not to go seek out His Words when there was a place available, then we have trampled upon the Spirit of Grace and our sin remains, thus we are not saved as we might think). 14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? (This is referring to John 8:47, for the Lord says that if they do not hear His Words, they are not of God). And how shall they hear without a preacher? (The people require a preacher, and if a preacher does not hear the knowledge of what the Lord says, then the people have no preacher and destruction will come upon them for lacking knowledge Hosea 4:6), 15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? (Jesus sent the disciples AS He WAS SENT By THE FATHER, and Jesus was sent with the Words of God; so, if the preachers do not seek to receive the Words of God when they are opened to them, then they are not sent of God, for they are actually not of God, per John 8:47, for their zeal is not according to knowledge). As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the GOOD NEWS (Most Bibles translate this as Gospel ) of Peace (Peace is the name of the eternal heaven that was bought by the blood of Jesus, and that takes the seeking and the receiving of the knowledge of His Words before you can preach it), Who bring glad tidings of GOOD THINGS!" (The Good things are the irrevocable promises of God that He has placed into each of His Words and that He has now opened to all the world in this the Time of the End, as like He did for the Jews in the days of the apostles). 16 But they have not all obeyed the Good News (His Words are opened). For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our report?" 17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by a Word of God (The Knowledge of Truth). 18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed: "Their sound has gone out to all the earth, And Their Words to the ends of the world." (The Lord s Words are of the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit 1 John 5:7, and John says that They are One = They are the Their to whom King David references in this passage of Psalm 19:1-4 that Paul is referencing). 19 But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says: "I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, I will move you to anger by a foolish nation." 20 But Isaiah is very bold and says: "I was found by those who did not seek Me; I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me." (Paul was not asking for Jesus, and the Lord appeared to Him and set him apart as an apostle). 21 But to Israel He says: "All day long I have stretched out My hands to a disobedient and contrary people." (They refused to hear His words and to do them). We Are Held Accountable to God for the Use of the Resources that He has Allowed Us to Obtain The Lord is not only calling every Preacher, Evangelist, Prophet, TV Host, Praise Leader, Bible Scholar, Missionary, Rabbi, Bishop, Sunday School Teacher, Bible Study Leader, End Times Speaker, or any person involved in teaching the Bible, to come to repentance. He is also calling all of the people. There is a very interesting story in the Bible that we have all likely been taught since we are children. It is the story of the rich man named Zacchaeus, the tax collector, who wanted so greatly to see Jesus that he climbed a sycamore tree in an effort to view Jesus as He passed by. There is no record that Jesus had ever met this man named Zacchaeus. But, the Lord reveals that He not only knew the mans name, but that He also knew He was to stay with this man that night for the purpose of bringing salvation to Zacchaeus. The text of this story, as found in Luke 19:1-11, reveals that Zacchaeus was nearly perfect in every way. Like Matthew, Zacchaeus was a tax collector. It may be that Matthew knew of Zacchaeus, but it is interesting that this event is recorded in the book of Luke, and not in the book of Matthew. Also, this encounter with Zacchaeus is presented directly in front of the teaching of the Parable of the Minas. The Lord uses Zacchaeus use of his resources to compare it to the responsibility and the accountability that we all have to use the resources that the Lord has allowed for us to obtain to do good things for others. (You should take notice that the Lord has never blessed tax collection in the Bible. Taxes are a punishment that He has given to man. The Bible reveals that the Lord has also not desired for man to have worldly people and worldly idols on coins. It is our ignorance of God s Way and His Law that has allowed taxation to continue unabated. When asked to pay the Temple Tax, the Lord asked the Pharisees whose head was on the coin, and they replied Caesar s. He said to pay onto Caesar that which belongs to Caesar. The Lord was showing us that it was not His desire that our coin did not worship God, and He also was pointing out that God couldn t be shared with the world. It is a penalty, and it is a punishment that is not the desire of God that we accept and pay taxes. It seems logical that if we put the Lord s Words, that are in fact God in Spirit, on our coin and if we desire to use our currency to serve Him as a nation with our resources, then we would become blessed in our finances, as like the nation of Israel when it followed Him, and there would be no need for taxes). Take notice in the story of Zacchaeus that He gave 50% of his earnings to the poor. Even though he was a rich man, and those around him hated him, he was still a very generous man giving 50% of his earnings to the poor, and this seems to be clearly in addition to his regular tithes and offerings. The response that Zacchaeus gave is the response of a man who was weary with the people. It seems clear from the text of this story that no matter what Zacchaeus did, the Jewish people of Jericho would not see him as a just man and a Godly man. It seems that they considered him to be a sinner because he collected taxes for Rome and that he was like a man cavorting with the enemy. It is funny that these same Jewish people would consider Joseph as a saint and savior of His people. But the Lord had Joseph put all of Egypt under a 20% deceiving taxation. The Lord had Joseph take away all of the money, the property, and even the homes of all the Egyptians, and finally put them all under what is a working bonded slavery that is similar to what America and all the nations are about to go through if they do not come out immediately from the world system and return to the Lord. These people of Jericho saw Zacchaeus as an evil man, yet the Lord was allowing taxation to remain upon Israel because they would not hear His Words. The Lord can only pour out His Grace and free a nation from this taxation and bonded slavery when the people turn to Him and seek to come into a place where they can January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 57 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

59 utilize their national resources for doing Good for others. So Zacchaeus was not a sinner to the Lord because of his job or what he was doing. In fact the Lord finds nothing wrong with Zacchaeus except that he was missing the salvation of God that is the receiving of the Words of God that would give Zacchaeus eternal Life. Thus, when the people murmured about the Lord going into the home of Zacchaeus to spend the night, the people were upset and said that the Lord was cavorting with a sinner. Actually, from what can be read in this text, it would seem that Zacchaeus was less of a sinner than they were. For unlike them, Zacchaeus was anxious to hear and to receive the Word of God. I would believe that Zacchaeus became a strong disciple of Christ and was likely among those who saw Him ascend into heaven. For Zacchaeus was hungry to do Good. The Lord tells us in Proverbs 11:27 that He who seeks Good shall find the Grace (the favor) of God. For this reason the Lord was fulfilling scripture by visiting the house of Zacchaeus, and He was showing us that that Lord keeps His promises, for He gave Favor (Grace) to Zacchaeus, a man who was diligent to seek Good. Zacchaeus was like the righteous in the eyes of the Lord, and by receiving the Words of God, then Zacchaeus will become righteous because he will use the Words to do Good because he obviously was doing all that he could to please the Lord. Luke 19: Then Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. 2 Now behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature. 4 So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was going to pass that way. 5 And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, "Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for today I must stay at your house." (Consider that Jesus says in the scriptures that He only did what was the will of God for Him to do; therefore we should take note that it is Jesus who told Zacchaeus that He must stay at his house that night. If you consider this, then you shall understand that Jesus is saying that this is the appointed Day and Hour of Zacchaeus. The Hour is the time when you have to decide to believe in His Words and His Sayings, or you are left out of heaven. Like it was in those days, when Jesus came to open His Words to the Jews, so it is in these days when Jesus has opened His Words to all Gentiles. When the Spirit makes it known to your heart that the Lord has come near to open His Words that gives you Life, then that is your Hour. This is already the Day of the Lord, so your Day, your Time of Visitation, has already come and your hour can be any time. But, what will you do, and will you do it zealously enough to gain in oil?). 6 So he made haste and came down, and received Him joyfully. (Zacchaeus was a man who was diligent to hear the Word of God and to stand in His presence. Consider carefully and you may understand that when the Words of God are present, you are to be zealous to be in His presence. You may recall that the Lord tells the people, who are likened to the Church of Laodicea that they are to turn, repent and become ZEALOUS to seek to be in His presence and to hear His Words. Consider that the people who were following Jesus in Jericho were surrounding Him, but the Lord looked up and saw the zealousness of Zacchaeus. Those people who were around Jesus were likened to the lukewarm church of Laodicea. They thought that they were filled with the knowledge of God and that they were doing everything right, and that they were followers of Jesus. In their minds they believed that they were righteous, and thus they were perturbed when Jesus did not ask to stay with one of them. But, they were like the people of the church of Laodicea, as even though they were walking and talking with the Lord, they were not hearing what He was telling them. Their ears were filled with what they wanted to hear, and their eyes were missing the way in which Jesus walked, and their ears would not hear the Lord in the way in which He was actually speaking to them. Jesus was telling them of the way of the Words of God and talking to them in Parables, but they were not zealous to search out the meaning of His Words and they did not think about searching out why the Lord was told by His Father to stay at the house of Zacchaeus that night. Even the next day as the Lord left and told them the Parable of the Minas, they likely still did not understand the meaning of what the Lord was teaching them through His works of that day. They had forgotten the Law of the Father given to them in Deuteronomy 18:18-19 that they were to hear the Words of God and that they wee to observe the things that the Father would tell Jesus to do. Because of this they missed their Hour of opportunity to receive His Words in the Day of their visitation. They did no realize that they were about to be cast out of the mouth of the Lord for they did not hear, nor did they see, and thus their sin remained, and when the Words of God come by you, that is the Words of Knowledge, or the also called the Knowledge of Truth, there is no sacrificial covering for willful sin Hebrews 10: These people are so much likened to so many of the believers of today. They believe that they are rich in knowledge of His Words, they are wealthy in rewards, believe that they are lacking in nothing, and walking hand in and with the Lord, yet they do not see that they are blind, naked, poor in Spirit, and wretched in sin because they trample upon the Spirit of Grace and ignore the First Commandment of God. These people who taunted Zacchaeus were not given the Words of God that assure Salvation, and they never saw themselves as sinners). 7 But when they saw it, they all complained, saying, "He has gone to be a guest with a man who is a sinner." 8 Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, "Look, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I restore fourfold." (Note that Zacchaeus response to the Lord at the accusations of the Jews is a response of a man who is weary of the attacks of His accusers. But, Zacchaeus did not bewail them, he only responded to the Lord his plea with real statements, and he did not respond in an accusing way, or with a belittling comparison of himself against his Jewish accusers). 9 And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, (Jesus is saying to Zacchaeus to be comforted because he is being blessed because salvation has come to this house, for Jesus came to speak His Words to him to strengthen him, and to give Him eternal Life. Take notice that Jesus is saying that Zacchaeus will accept His Words, because the Lord says salvation has come, meaning that Zacchaeus heart is open to the Lord, and that Zacchaeus is deserving to receive His Words that are the Words of Eternal Living Water) because he also is a son of Abraham; 10 for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost." (All those who have lost the knowledge that we are to hear and keep His Words are lost, and the Lord come to open His Words and to give them the knowledge how to enable the father to do more abundant Good Works for others; even how to find great favor in the eyes of God, and to receive His Words that gives them the Father s Unbreakable Promise of Eternal Life. In Isaiah 50:4-5, it is revealed that the Father spoke to Jesus every morning and let January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 58 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

60 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace Him to know to whom He was to speak a Word of God to strengthen the weary. Jesus was sent to speak the Words of God, and He was then given the instructions of when to use what Word of God. We are to seek to be guided in like manner). Isaiah 50:4-5 4 The Lord has given Me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary. He (the Father) awakens Me morning by morning, He awakens My ear to hear as the learned. 5 The Lord God has opened My ear; and I was not rebellious, nor did I turn away. (Jesus was awakened every day by the Father, and He was told who would be sent to Him and what He was to do to give a Word of God to one who is weary. This is like what the Lord did with Zacchaeus. Jesus knew that the Father had prepared Zacchaeus, and Jesus knew He was to go into his house and speak to him of His Words). Proverbs 11:27 He who DILIGENTLY SEEKS Good FINDS favor (Grace). John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. John 8:47 He who is of God hears God s Words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God. Psalm 119:68 You are Good, AND You do Good; teach me Your statutes. Proverbs 19:8 He who gets Wisdom loves his own soul; he who keeps Understanding WILL find Good. Proverbs 11:23 The desire of the Righteous is only Good. Proverbs 10:24 The desire of the righteous will be granted. (This is the same as is stated in John 15:7). The Lord follows the visit with Zacchaeus with the Parable of the Ten Minas. This is a Parable about how we use the Favor that God has given to our hands. One of the saddest books of the Bible is the book of Ecclesiastes written in remorse by Solomon. Most people do not understand that this book is the Writing of the repentance of Solomon for how he wasted what God had given him. In that book Solomon reveals that He failed because He had traveled from utilizing the knowledge of the God to enable the Lord to do for others. Solomon is revealing his failure, and the Old Testament testifies to his failures. It is well recorded how Solomon wasted the resources that God had given him. He had been allowed to obtain more wealth in his season any other person in all of history. No ones wealth on earth has matched Solomon s wealth and no one s kingdom had matched the splendor of Solomon s Kingdom. In Solomon s day the precious metal of silver was not even accounted for because it was accounted as valued for nothing. In the book of Ecclesiastes Solomon reveals that he had failed because he had been tempted by his success and wealth, and he had shifted from seeking God to do the works for others through the speaking of His Words, to the position of doing all the works of himself and by the wisdom of his own words. When Solomon is speaking of the works of man under the sun, he is referring to the works of man under the way of the world. In the Bible it is revealed that the physical Sun is under the control of Satan, and it will remain so until the Lord casts Satan into the Pit. Satan is always sending signals into the mind and causing us to believe that we are strong and that we are able to do all things ourselves. Satan takes us from the way of relying upon the faithfulness of God s Words and from being concerned about doing His Words to enable Him to do Good Works for others. Satan wants us to rely on our own wisdom that we have in this world, and to focus on doing works ourselves for obtaining all we need by ourselves. Those are the two conflicting ways. Solomon is revealing in the book of Ecclesiastes that he left his first love, and that he went off and toiled in vain under the sun (under the way of Satan) trying to do the works by his own wisdom, and he dramatically failed. Consider this fact: Solomon inherited a Kingdom from his father King David that was rich. All of the people were happy. There was no taxation when Solomon inherited the Kingdom of Israel, but when Solomon had stopped doing the way of the Lord s Words, and began to rely on his own wisdom, then the blessings of God s favor stopped, for God gives Grace for grace. By the time that Solomon died, he had implemented a heavy tax burden upon the people of Israel. Without the continuation of the blessings being poured out in abundance by God, Solomon had to find other avenues of income to feed the desires of his lust for splendor. The things that Solomon desired changed from doing Good for God, and to desiring splendor and opulence for his own lusts. The Lord had told Solomon that he would be with Him and give Him Grace as long as he did not multiply in wives, in horses, and in stables. Solomon would not heed the instruction of the Lord, and he gathered under himself 1000 wives and concubines, he multiplied the horses and the armored men, and he multiplied horse stables and armories all over Israel. Solomon wasted the resources of God and placed gold on even the hinges of the doors of the horse stables, and the armor of the soldiers shields were made in Gold. Opulence and the desire for greater worldly possessions was the sin of Solomon. Solomon s sin of ignoring the reason that God gives wisdom to help others, and his desire for wealth without the concern for the people, were the same sins that caused his son, King Rehoboam, to fail when he inherited Solomon s Kingdom. That son ignored the warning of the wise men of the nation who told him that he needed not to increase the taxes, but to reduce the taxes, or eliminate them altogether. Solomon s son would have been wise if sought after the Lord to increase in the knowledge of God s Word to have the wisdom to rule the Lord s people so that they would be blessed by God s Favor. Then he could have eliminated the taxes altogether because taxes are not necessary in a kingdom or nation that is guided by God, is obedient to God, and that puts its trust in God. Instead Solomon s son quickly implemented an even increased tax burden. If he wanted to be successful, then he would have eliminated the tax and sought the Lord for wisdom and understanding of how to do the Words of God so that the Lord would be able to bless His people through the doing of His Words. It is a Law of God that everyday we are to teach all those in our house the Words of God and the ways of God to use His Words and enable the Good Works of the Father to be done for others. As a result of the failure of Solomon to continue to teach His son the January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

61 Words of God and the ways of God, his son immediately failed and lost the largest part of the kingdom. Solomon started out good with the talents that the Lord have given him, but he failed to continue to obey the Lord, and he also obviously failed to continue to teach His sons. The book of Ecclesiastes is a testimony of how Solomon failed when he tried to do the works under the Sun (Meaning by himself with his own wisdom) and to not work under the Words of God. Solomon never lost the great wisdom that God had poured out upon him, and he remained receiving a lot of Gold and great gifts during his kingdom, but that was only because the Lord had promised David. But, beyond what God allowed him to obtain to fulfill God s promise to David, Solomon lost the entire extra blessing of Grace (Favor) that the Lord would have poured out on him. Solomon was not faithful with the talents of the Lord, and all of the wisdom and knowledge that Solomon had gained, was as vanity, for instead of using it to enable the Good Works of God to be done for others, he tried to use the knowledge God had given him of science, of business, and of managing, so as to receive blessings that pleased himself. In the book of Ecclesiastes Solomon tells us that this is a waste of time and that nothing can satisfy us if we turn from the Words of God. Let us consider Solomon s concluding statement in the book of Ecclesiastes that is found in chapter 12 verses 13-14: Ecclesiastes 12: Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His Commandments (We are to love our God with all of our heart, our soul, and our minds, and we are to hear His Words and teach them in our households, and post His Words on the posts of our Door, bind them on our wrists, and place them in and on everything so that we will remember them and that all will go well with our lives Deuteronomy 6:4-9), for this is the whole duty of a man (Hosea 6:6; Micah 6:8). 14 For God will bring every work into judgment, including every secret thing, whether it is Good or whether it is evil. (Remember that there is no work that is Good except that work that is of God; for all other things are as evil in the eyes of God, for those things ignore the purpose that He sent His son to bleed and die on the Cross for us). Micah 6:8 8 He has shown you, O man, what is Good; and WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU BUT TO DO JUSTLY, TO LOVE GOOD DEEDS, AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR GOD? (you can oonly walk humbly if you listen to Him and obey His Law) Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Deuteronomy 18:18-19 (It is a LAW OF GOD to hear HIS WORDS) 18 I will raise up for them a Prophet (Jesus) like you from among their brethren, and will put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. 19 And it shall be that whoever will not hear My Words, which He speaks in My name, I WILL REQUIRE IT OF HIM. John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure. Deuteronomy 6:4-9 (This is the Primary Law of God to uphold His First Commandment) 4 "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord! 5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul, and with all your might. 6 And these Words which I command you this day shall be upon your heart; 7 and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 8 And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 And you shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates." We will be Judged by What Words Has Come out of our Mouth and What Words for Good that We Have Done Clearly the story of Solomon resonates a warning to all of us of this day. We are held accountable for what we do with the resources that God gives to us. We have been wasting these resources unwisely for years. We have built up Christina TV networks that have become as abominable before the eyes of God. We have built up great and beautiful evangelical churches that many of them stand only as pillars of memoriam to their founders, for they have little part in God s kingdom. For they neither hear His Words nor do they believe in His Good Works as they occurred. Many of them are likened to Solomon, in that they started out seeking after God and really wanting to do Good for the people. But, along with the wealth they were allowed to obtain, their lusts, evil secret habits, even to alcoholism, adultery, and continual lying and misrepresentation of facts began to take over their works, for they desired to fulfill their personal private lusts and to reach out to obtain to great wealth. It is said that some have likely obtained giant offshore personal bank accounts accumulating from interest rate returns that are beyond the minds of the people of their congregations from whom they plead for more resources. They look at the wealth and they claim it is surely a blessing from God, but they fail to see that they will not be judged by that accumulation of wealth and opulent facilities that they manage under the cover of non-profit trusts. They will be judged by what they did with the Words of God and what Good Works they accomplished for the poor and for the weary, in proportion to all the resources that they were given. All their works that are outside of His Good Works are done by their own wisdom, and all of this that they have obtained is only as foolish vanity before the Holy Angels who are watching and tracking their works they are doing for His Words. If you logically consider the Scriptures, and truly hear what Jesus has said, then it can only surmised that these have fallen to become just another of one of those foolish unwise virgins (Ecclesiastes 2:15). Solomon said this in Ecclesiastes 1:18, when he said that although he had gained much knowledge and wisdom, that when he used it in the way of man s work and not top enable God s work, then all that knowledge only increased his grief and it was all folly. Solomon started out to do Good when he became King of Israel, and God gave Him knowledge and much wisdom so that He could do the Good that is desired by God (To do Good for others). Solomon says that he also experienced that God will give wisdom and knowledge to the sinner, but the Lord causes all of that work of the sinner to be used for gathering and collecting things that will eventually be turned over to do the Good January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 60 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

62 Work of the Lord s, so his effort to gain is eventually for waste and is as vanity (Ecclesiastes 2:26). God also At the Midnight Hour they will awake to realize that they have squandered their resources and their time, and though they are rich in the world, their vessel is poor in its volume of the oil of heaven that is required to be found among those who will be found worthy and will be sealed to be kept safe and secure for the Rapture to come. In the Time of the Night, they will suffer and they will not be kept safe and secure. For the Lord says that if they do not turn, repent, and become zealous for His Words when they are made known, then they will not taste of His food, and that He will make their nakedness be made known, and their shame will be revealed before all people. The problem is that they have lost their love of God, and they in no way honor even the First Commandment of God. This is also the key to understanding the Parable of the Ten Minas. We are held into account of what Grace the Lord has given us, and how we used it to honor God by doing His Words for others, so that the Lord is enabled to do His Good Works for others. Luke 19: Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He was near Jerusalem and because they thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately. (The people of that day, like most people of this day, have not understood the Kingdom of God. Jesus came to speak and to do the Words of God. He could not open the Words of God until He completed all things. He had to go to the Cross so that He was the sacrifice Himself so that He would obtain the authority to return and to open the Words of God in which is all of the Kingdom of God. As is recorded in Luke 24:44-45 He did return from heaven to open the Words of God to all of His people) 12 Therefore He said: "A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. (In this statement the Lord is explaining that Jesus had to come from the heaven of God and go into our world to establish the Kingdom by telling people the Words of God and establishing the Kingdom in these people. This is what he Lord has done. In John 17:8 the Lord testifies to us that He gave us the Words of the Father, and He returned after the Cross to open them to the minds of the disciples and those others who received Him. Jesus has now opened these Words for all people who will come to Him. For the Lord is preparing His Kingdom that He will return by 2028 to rule. But, before the at time the Lord is going to come to Judge all those whom He had given His Words available, and all others He will judge on what Good that they have done. This will be the Judgment of the Midnight Hour as is told to us in the Parable of the Ten Virgins. For it is the Midnight Hour when the Lord comes with His Holy Angels to determine who is worthy and who is not worthy by the oil His Words that are in their vessel). 13 So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come.' 14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, 'We will not have this man to reign over us.' 15 "And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. 16 Then came the first, saying, 'Master, your mina has earned ten minas.' 17 And he said to him, 'Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.' 18 And the second came, saying, 'Master, your mina has earned five minas.' 19 Likewise he said to him, 'You also be over five cities.' 20 "Then another came, saying, 'Master, here is your mina, which I have kept put away in a handkerchief. 21 For I feared you, because you are an austere man. You collect what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.' 22 And he said to him, 'Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant (He is judged by his words for his works). You knew that I was an austere man, collecting what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow. 23 Why then did you not put my money in the bank, that at my coming I might have collected it with interest?' 24 "And he said to those who stood by, 'Take the mina from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.' 25 (But they said to him, 'Master, he has ten minas.') 26 'For I say to you, that to everyone who has will be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 27 But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.'" (Take notice that it is the Words of God that are to rule over us. The Father warned us of this in Deuteronomy 18:18-19, and it is the Law of God in Deuteronomy 6:4-9. If we refuse His Words then we are to be cut off from God and cast into the Outer Darkness). This brings us back to Solomon. Consider what Solomon says in Ecclesiastes chapter 2. He says that though he attained a lot of wisdom and could do many works, because he did them for himself by his own works, and not through enabling the Lord to do His Good Works for others through him, then all that he had done was as vanity and waste. Solomon chased every whim, and he did every kind of work with his wisdom; but it was he who did the works, and he did not enable God to do the works. He is saying that anything that man does is nothing but vanity. He is also saying that we will be judged because we did the works ourselves instead of using the wisely using the wisdom that God allowed us to obtain. He is saying both the earthly wisdom and the heavenly wisdom that he obtained, he used unwisely. He did not use his wisdom and knowledge to do the Words of God so that the Father would be enabled to do the Good Works and to receive Glory. Solomon is saying that he fell to lusts as he let his heart chase all things, even though he knew he should have chased only the knowledge of God s Words and His Understanding. Thus, Solomon says that he wasted his life and the entirety of what God had given to him, and those Solomon became as a fool, and he is accounted as being unworthy. Interesting is that this Writing of repentance for seeking knowledge to use it for his own selfish ambitions, instead of seeking knowledge so that he could enable the Father to do His Good Works for others so that the Father would be glorified. The key to understanding these statements of Solomon is that you have to realize that Solomon knew the Words of God. Solomon when he became King was very wise in what he stated to the Lord, and because he only asked to do good for others that he was over, the Lord poured out Grace upon him and made him wealthy beyond any man who has ever lived. Yet, Solomon wasted this great gift, and he di d not stay true to desiring to do good for others by wisdom. Wealth and wisdom became goals of Solomon; but Solomon did not use them as he told the Lord, to do Good for others under him. Instead the great wealth and possessions that the Lord granted him with became like idols to him. Solomon even tried to use for his own gain, the great wisdom of all things that the Lord gave him through the entrance of His Words that gave him Understanding of January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 61 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

63 the knowledge of God. James said of this mindset, that you do not have because you ask amiss. Solomon seems to have chased pleasure and joy as his greatest desire; but he found nothing on earth that was accountable as joy. Solomon is writing this Book as a Parable to us. He is telling us that there is nothing that man can do that compare to receiving the Words of God and increasing in the knowledge of God so that He can enable the Lord s Good Works. There is no wealth that man can obtain through his own works that will last. David sought the knowledge of God s Words, and he caused all of his people in the entire nation to prosper, and David left a great kingdom for his son, Solomon as well as all the people of Israel. But, Solomon lost it all because he did not continue to walk in the way of the Words of God. Whereas God rewarded the works of his father David, and that was the basis for Solomon s wealth; Solomon s works turned from following the way of the works of his father who followed God s wisdom, to following the way of Solomon s own wisdom, and Solomon s kingdom fell immediately apart in the hands of his son. That is the difference of doing the works yourself as Solomon, versus doing the way of the Words of God through the guidance of the Lord to enable the Father to do the works for you. That is the difference of accountability with the Grace of wisdom and blessings that God gives to us. Ecclesiastes 2: I said in my heart, "Come now, I will test you with mirth; therefore enjoy pleasure"; but surely, this also was vanity. 2 I said of laughter--"madness!"; and of mirth, "What does it accomplish?" 3 I searched in my heart how to gratify my flesh with wine, while guiding my heart with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven all the days of their lives. 4 I made my works great, I built myself houses, and planted myself vineyards. (It is important to note that Solomon built His house and other items in the way of the Words of God, and they were great, but he failed to keep doing the way of the Words for the Good of others, and he sought to use these things for making himself great, and not for the purpose of giving God Glory. People often chastise Solomon for the number of years it took to build his own house, versus the Temple. But, in reality Solomon was very wise in the amount of time that he took to build the house. It was done in the way of the Words of God, and it must have been intricate in the wisdom of its details. The Lord says that our house is to be like having the Words of God in front of eyes like they are frontlets. Solomon had great wisdom of the Words, and his house must have had every room of unique design to incorporate the way of the Words of God. But, even if the Words are always in front of you, you still have to teach and keep His Law in regard to the Words. The Lord does not want the Words of God to become our ritual worship like the Priests of the Temple in Jesus day made the services to become of rituals for the financial gain. The early church did the way of the Words of God in simplistic and logical ways, but they were persecuted greatly and the knowledge passed away with them and was completely lost in a short time. For it was the law of God that His Words were not to be able to be freely taught to the whole world until these very days that we are now in; unless the people would have petitioned God for clarity, but no nation or people ever did until now. We must be careful not to miss the knowledge of the Words, and yet not turn them into ritualistic worship. God wants us to worship Him in Spirit and Truth, so that He is glorified before man, and not to use them for our gain, except for the purpose of growing His Good News in the world and to provide for the basic and reasonable needs of the people. For ministers and evangelists to be living in multi-million dollar homes, driving luxury cars, and flying personal jets, when they are not teaching His Words, is greatly misusing the resources of God in like manner to Solomon, and their result will come to similar shame unless they turn, repent, and become true worshipers of the Lord, who worship Him in Spirit and Truth. Same with His people. If they support ministries that are not doing the will of God in these days, then they cannot expect the Grace of God to be poured out upon them in the Time of the Night). 5 I made myself gardens and orchards, and I planted all kinds of fruit trees in them. 6 I made myself water pools from which to water the growing trees of the grove. 7 I acquired male and female servants, and had servants born in my house. Yes, I had greater possessions of herds and flocks than all who were in Jerusalem before me. 8 I also gathered for myself silver and gold and the special treasures of kings and of the provinces. I acquired male and female singers, the delights of the sons of men, and musical instruments of all kinds. (Praise worship is all nice, but the greater praise that God is looking for is not head, it is the doing of His Words that gives Him great Glory in doing the work that we have asked of Him in our doing of the way of His Promises that is in His Words. That is the meaning of praise in heaven, and that praise is not heard, it is seen by God and by angels, and it gives the real Glory to God. That is the way of the True Worshipers whom the Lord says in John 4:23-24, that the Father is looking for the true worshipers who worship Him in Spirit and in Truth). 9 So I became great and excelled more than all who were before me in Jerusalem. Also my wisdom remained with me. (Solomon says he became great. Even though he was not doing the way of the Words of God for others, the wisdom that God had revealed to him when he was doing the way of the Words had remained with him, but now he was trying to use it to make himself great). 10 Whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them. I did not withhold my heart from any pleasure, for my heart rejoiced in all my labor; and this was my reward from all my labor. 11 Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done and on the labor in which I had toiled; and indeed all was vanity and grasping for the wind (Solomon is saying that all the works that he did with his own hands are foolish. He needed to use his wisdom and knowledge to do the way of the Words of God so that He could enable the Father to do His Good Works for others through us). There was no profit under the sun (Under the world that Satan controls). 12 Then I turned myself to consider wisdom and madness and folly; for what can the man do who succeeds the king? -- Only what he has already done. 13 Then I saw that wisdom excels folly as light excels darkness. 14 The wise man's eyes are in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. Yet I myself perceived that the same event happens to them all. 15 So I said in my heart, "As it happens to the fool, it also happens to me, and why was I then more wise?" Then I said in my heart, "This also is vanity." 16 For there is no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever, since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come. And how does a wise man die? As the fool! (Those who are wise in the world are fools in the way of the wisdom of heaven). 17 Therefore I hated life because the work that was done under the sun was distressing to me, for all is vanity and grasping for the wind. 18 Then I hated all my labor in which I had toiled under the sun (Solomon is talking about those labors that he did not do under the guidance of God, but those labors that he had done under the sun are those that he January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 62 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

64 did under the way of Satan who controls the sun. Solomon is repenting of these labors), because I must leave it to the man who will come after me. (Solomon had allowed that Ashtoreth poles to come into Israel and he allowed leading men of Israel to take foreign wives, and he allowed pagan worship to come into Israel. He had allowed these people had reached high positions in society of Israel under his rule. These sins he was leaving to the man who would follow him. If Solomon would have repented in sackcloth, would not the Lord have empowered him to change the nation back to the way that he had received it? With God all things are possible. He forgave the terrible ruthless men of Nineveh who had done mush to hurt Israel. He would have accepted Solomon s true repentance for David s sake and for the people of Israel. Jesus wept over Jerusalem and said that so many times He wanted to take them under His arms and shelter them, but their pride would not let Him. Here in Ecclesiastes chapter 2 we see that opportunity being laid in front of Solomon but it seems that he would not repent, even with the heart of wisdom that the Lord had given Him. It is so sad that so many times Israel had the opportunity to be lifted out of its mud and become great, and this was one of those moments. Today we are in a similar time in Israeli history. The leaders of Israel have to pull out from the world system and turn to God s Words and when they do He will heal them and separate them from the world. The Rapture is coming, and it is for all believers, Jews and Christian alike. Israel will you not hear the Lord this time? You failed to heed the Writings of Moses when Jesus came to you the first time. In Deuteronomy 18:18-19 the Father talked to you through Moses that Jesus would come speaking the Words of God and that He would require of your people if they would not hear Him. In 70 AD the nation was destroyed as Jesus foretold to you it would be because those people of Israel refused Jesus, and then they refused the disciples and apostles that He sent to you. Will you now refuse the foreign messenger He has sent to warn you? Israel, His Words are again opened to you. The Father is calling for you to finally repent and hear Him! Soon He will gather all the nations of Ezekiel 38 to gather against you. He will do that so that you will then finally call out to Him and heed His Words that you may be kept safe and secure in the Time of the Night that is coming). 19 And who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will rule over all my labor in which I toiled and in which I have shown myself wise under the sun. This also is vanity. (Solomon knew that he had failed to rule as he had told his father and the Lord that he would do; and because he had not kept God s law to bring his sons up by teaching the me the Words of God to enable God to do Good Works through him. He therefore did not know how he would rule. Plus the Lord had told him that his son would lose the kingdom). 20 Therefore I turned my heart and despaired of all the labor in which I had toiled under the sun. 21 For there is a man whose labor is with wisdom, knowledge, and skill; yet he must leave his heritage to a man who has not labored for it. This also is vanity and a great evil. 22 For what has man for all his labor, and for the striving of his heart with which he has toiled under the sun? 23 For all his days are sorrowful, and his work burdensome; even in the night his heart takes no rest. This also is vanity. 24 Nothing is better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that his soul should enjoy good in his labor. This also, I saw, was from the hand of God. 25 For who can eat, or who can have enjoyment, more than I? 26 For God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to a man who is good in His sight; but to the sinner He gives the work of gathering and collecting, that he may give to him who is good before God. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind. (You can work all you desire in the world, but God is going to cause all your work to be turned and used to complete His purpose. SO why do you fight against the Will of God to do the way of the world, which He will take from you and give it to the cause that He has purposed. For all that the Lord desires and has prophesied will be done). We are that People through whom the Knowledge of the Glory of the Lord will be Made Known to All I would like for you to consider the wonderful teachings of Paul and the disciples more closely. They knew the Words of God and they did many great works for the Lord because of their diligence to seek the knowledge of God and to go forth and teach others. When you read these books after you obtain understanding of the mysteries of the Kingdom of God that they had received Knowledge of, these Books will come alive to you in new ways. You will begin to have a deeper and greater appreciation of these disciples and also of the Old Testament Prophets. You begin to realize just what a marvelous relationship that they had with the Lord that they could write these Books with the inspiration of the Spirit so that they incorporated the Earthly Language and the Heavenly Language within the same verses. You should realize that there is no possibility that the Bible is written with any error, and you will also realize that we have to get the Bible back to the words as it was written and that we should burn all of these translations of the Bible like the New Living Translation, the American Standard Bible, The New International Version, etc. For like false teachers, these Bibles have corrupted the heavenly language that the Holy Spirit placed within the verses of His Bible. You can understand it in earthly languages that it is written in, but the power of the Spirit of God has been removed because they have perverted the Heavenly Language that these same verses are intertwined with. The Lord warned us in Revelation chapter 22 that if we changed the Words of His book, then all of the plagues that are in the Bible would eventually come upon those people. That even includes the stores, churches, the Bookstores, and Internet Websites that sell such Bibles. God s Words are Holy and they have perverted Holy Words. The publishers are also held accountable for what they have published and accepted as being the Word of God when it is not. Even to the point that they have promoted and defended these perverted texts and promoted them falsely as accurate translations of the Bibles. Now perhaps we understand why the ancient Hebrews took so very serious the accuracy of the copies that they made of the Bible. They would burn any transcript that had a single error in it, because errors could not be completely erased and corrected as is possible today. Revelation 22:7 Behold, I am coming quickly! Blessed is he who keeps the Words of the prophecy of this Book. (If you want to receive God s Grace then you better be zealous to keep His Words perfected, and that means that you must get rid of those Bibles and teachings that are not of God, and that does not keep His Words. The Lord s proclamation make sit clear that you should not expect to receive His Grace if you do not keep His Words. If you do not believe me, then ask yourself if it is wise to contradict the promise of God, and are you willing to stake the needs that you are going to January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

65 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace have in the time of the Night upon Bibles that do not keep His Words? Sure, you can scoff at me and my Writings; but if you scoff at what the Lord is saying, then you alone will bear it). Revelation 22:18-20 For I testify to everyone who hears the Words of the Prophecy of this Book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from the Words of the Book of this Prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. (The people who have written and published these apostate Bibles should understand that what they thought was a good work to help God has been foolishness, and they are standing in the direct against this instruction of God. They have made the mistake of Uzzah, and they need to repent in all seriousness and with great zealousness for the willful sin that they have committed out of their pride and by their earthly wisdom. These people did not know that they were blind, just as Uzzah did not know. But the Lord killed Uzzah, and He has promised punishment on these people. If you have such Bibles, and you keep them, then are you not committing the same willful sins by allowing that Bible to stay in your house or your church? Such Bibles are an idol to the wisdom of man and they are not as an honor of God s Words and of His Glory. Can you expect God s Grace upon your house when you have an item of sin lying in the house?). He who testifies to these things says, Surely I am coming quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus! Luke 12:10 And anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven. (God s Words are the Holy Spirit in full measure). Proverbs 9:12 If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, and if you scoff, you alone will bear it. The Lord has promised that within our season of time on earth, the time of this very generation, that He is going to use us to cause the knowledge of Glory to fill the entire earth. The Lord stated this as an End Times Parable that is explained in the chart to the right. In the following three chapters from Paul s book of 2 Thessalonians, the apostle Paul tells us some information of the End Times that should help us to understand that this prophetic Word of the Lord shall come true within our days. I have added some commentary to help you as you read through this, but it will explain that they knew the Words of God, and that they knew the Words would be lost until these days that we are now living in. Within these three chapters, the apostle Paul explains important things to us of this day about the events that are to come and how we should get ready for them. Please read them and consider them carefully, and I believe that you will come to a new appreciation of the apostles and the efforts that they went through to especially help us of these very days who were ordained from the time of the Creation to receive His Words. The books of the New Testament are written for us like a guide so that we are enabled to be fully equipped for every Good Work. Consider that the reason for this is that it is been placed upon since the time of Creation to hear the Voice of God and to increase in knowledge so that we may go forth to do His Good Works and fill the earth with the Knowledge of the Glory of the Lord. From the Time of Creation the Father has awaited our time, and has awaited us hearing Him. It is to us that the great event that is called the Great White Harvest Revival has been awarded by the Father. It is our great honor to hear Him, increase in knowledge and go forth, to and fro over the whole earth to make known the Glory of the Lord. God has chosen us for this great assignment. Think on that. It is our very great and exceeding joy to be able to be His chosen people to be enabled to make known His Glory until it fills the entire earth. Consider this factor as you read these scriptures of Paul s teaching. We have the most abundance of God s Grace available to us that has ever been offered by God at any time in history, for we are living in the very days of the Lord s Great Supper (Luke 14:15-24). What will we do with this available abundance of His Grace? Will we do His Will for each of us? 2 Thessalonians 1: Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: 2 Grace to you and Peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (Peace is the name of the Eternal Heaven that is to come after the Millennium, in which will be found the Great City the New Jerusalem). 3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly (Faith is grown by the January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 64 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

66 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace entrance of His Words, so these people were increasing in the Knowledge of God through the entrance of His Words), and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each other (The Love that is used here means an active love towards another person, such as doing His Words to enable the Father to do His Good Works for another brethren), 4 so that we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure, 5 which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which you also suffer; 6 since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, 7 and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God (Paul is here referring to the Lord coming in the Spirit of Truth by fire the revelation of the knowledge of God that will bring to shame those who persecute those who believe in His Words), and on those who do not obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ (The Good News is the opening of the 153 Words of God, and those who resist His Words are those who do not obey the ay of His Words and the command that they are to place them on their Doors, place them on their wrists, and to teach them to all those in their house, for example. Or those who dare to resist God and call His 153 Words as a False Teaching). 9 These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the Glory of His power, 10 when He comes, in that Day (In this use of Day the Lord is referring to the entirety of the Day of the Lord as it is obvious from what is being said in these verses, and as what is revealed in al the parables and in the Writings of the Prophets), to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed. (God will be Glorified during the Time of the Night of the Day of the Lord, because the Scriptures reveal in Revelation 6:15-16 that all the people of the world will recognize the Lord is coming with judgment and it is too late for them to be aside for the Rapture, and that they are going to have to go through the times of great tribulations when the Lord pours out His wrath upon the earth as is revealed in the Trumpet and Bowl Judgments). 11 Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the Good pleasure of His Goodness and the work of Faith with power, 12 that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the Grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. (Paul is telling them to do the Good Works so that they Glorify the Father, and that they might receive of the favors that are the Grace of God). 2 Thessalonians 2: Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by Spirit or by Word or by letter (Writing in inspired Parables by the guidance of the hand of the Holy Spirit), as if from us, as though the Day of Christ had come. (It is sad that we never understood this statement of Paul for it was an invitation for us to receive of the Lord s Words and to go forth and do Good if we would have understood the Spirit, the Word and the Writings. But we did not hear Paul as we did not hear Jesus. It is important to separate out the Day of the Lord a 24 hour span of time from sunset to sunset, from the Daytime portion of the Day of the Lord that is a 6 hour span of time that is from 12:00 noon until sunset or ~6:00 PM. However in the Daytime of the Lord the time will be shortened to only 3 hours instead of 6 hours. In other Words the Lord will return in physical body at the midway of the Daytime of the Day of the Lord, or equal to 3:00 PM, which is the same time of day as when He died upon the Cross. Each three hour segment of the Day of the Lord is equal to a 3.5 year ministry cycle, as like the 3.5 years of the time of Jesus ministry on earth. The Evening and Night of the Day of the Lord is equal to 4 three hour segments (~6:00 PM until ~6:00 AM or Sunset until Sunrise) of the Day of the Lord, or 14 years, and this is the Time of the Seal Judgments; the Morning of the Day of the Lord is from ~6:00 AM until 12:00 Noon Sunrise until Noon, and this is the Time of the Trumpet Judgments; The Day of the Day of the Lord is 12:00 Noon until ~6:00 PM or Noon to Sunset, and this is the Time of the Bowl Judgments. But the Day time of the Day of the Lord will be shortened for the sake of the Lord saving all of the earth from being destroyed by the works of the Antichrist). 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. (Here Paul is referring to the Time of the Day of the Day of the Lord. The great falling away will occur at the beginning of the Trumpet Judgments. If you carefully see the wording of the Lord in the 6 th Seal Judgment of Revelation 6, it becomes obvious that by the time of the end of the Seal Judgments that everyone on earth has become aware of God and they know that His judgments are to come. But instead of being like the men of Nineveh and repenting in ash cloth, they go and try to kill themselves or even to hide. They are not repenting even though they now know who God is by the time of the 6 th Seal Judgment. Thus, the stage is set up for the Antichrist to begin to emerge as in the people s heart is rebellion and anger against God and not repentance. As the Lord begins to pour out His Trumpet Judgments this anger continues to mount. By the time of the 6 th Trumpet Judgment when the Lord has sent His two witnesses, and they have tormented people while trying to get them to repent, the people just grow more hardened against God. The world system puts into place its ten Kingdoms of Europe, and all the relating language global nations are under the King of the language they are related for example, America under England, Mexico under Spain, Brazil under Portugal, etc. Antichrist is emerging as one of these ten Kings. He will come from one of the smaller of these nations, which would likely mean Portugal, Belgium, or Holland. Throughout the Trumpet Judgments there will be wars, including the war where the Antichrist takes over the Middle East lands of Israel. The Antichrist will emerge near to the middle of the Trumpet Judgments and he will be a fierce military tyrant. It cannot be England for that is the capital of the city of Babylon as it is the location of the world s present centers of the global financial system (London, Edinburgh, along with Amsterdam), along with Belgium (Political Ruling Center). For the Antichrist is a military leader and on one day he will be made King of all, and his first global act seems to be to destroy the centers of the city of Babylon, which would mean London, Edinburgh, Amsterdam, and Brussels. Prior to the destruction of the leading cities of the world system the Antichrist will first kill the two witnesses of God (The two witnesses are killed before the 7 th trumpet, and the city of Babylon is destroyed after the 7 th Trumpet. The Lord uses the Antichrist to destroy the world system and he brings in his own tyrannical single man system at the very beginning of the Bowl Judgments). Antichrist strikes down God s two witnesses the entire world gives testimony to this falling away by sending gifts of the world to one another. This is in making a statement that they have stood up against the Gift of God His Words for they have killed January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 65 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

67 His two messengers who spoke His Words. That is showing that by that time all the people of the world will know the Gift of God and they are rebelling against His Words. You may remember in John 4:10 that the Lord told the Samaritan woman that if she knew the Gift of God then she would have asked for living waters. Here the people of the world are going to be rejecting the Gift of God and in mocking His Gift, they will send gifts to each other. But after three days all these rebellious people those who have fallen away will hear the voice of God call out to His two witnesses to arise and come up to Him. And in front of all these people they will witness the Lord give to His two witnesses the Living Water of Life and they will arise and God will cause the whole world to witness this event. Then God will kill 7,000 of those in that city died and one-tenth of the city fell. But, the point to all this is that from the time of the 6 th Seal Judgment and until the time of the 6 th Trumpet Judgment there is a great falling away. This all happens before the noontime of the Day of the Lord. For the time of the Day of the Day of the Lord begins at noon). 5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work (The Mystery of Lawlessness is when we completely reject the Words of God and the teaching of these Words. For it is a Law of God that we are to hear His Words and it is a Law of God that we are to teach them. Also it is the Words of God by which we will be judged. In other words, the entire purpose of Satan is to reject the Words of God and to get you not to believe Him or hear Him. The Words of God are God, for God is Spirit and His Words are Spirit. By His words all of the Creation was made, by His Words all things exist, and by His Words all things consists. Thus, since the first Commandment is that we are to love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all of our soul, and with all of our minds, then it is the sin of the spirit of lawlessness not to honor God by hearing His Words and keeping them. The sad mystery of lawlessness is that we are going to be judged b y the Words we have received. In these days when His Words are available and open to us, then we are trampling upon the Spirit of Grace when we do not diligently seek His Words. That is the Work of the Antichrist to confuse and to stamp out the Words of God); only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. (The Bible is very clear that the Holy Spirit is taken away completely at the tie when all of the Mysteries are fulfilled at the sounding of the 7 th Trumpet Revelation 10:7. That is the time when the restrainer is taken away, and the Antichrist emerges in power. He does not come in the 1 st Seal Judgment. He cannot be revealed until the 7 th Seal Judgment Trumpet is about to sound. For that verse of Revelation 10:7 tells us that only then is the Mystery complete. That means that the restrainer is removed and the mystery of the identity of the Antichrist is lifted). 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the Truth (His Words), that they might be saved (It is His Words that sweep us clean John 15:3. Now that His Words are opened we must come to receive His Words or we are not going to be saved). 11 And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, (In the 6 th Bowl Judgment the Lord will give the world the 3 lying spirits of the Antichrist to enter into people and convince then that the Antichrist is capable of defeating the Lord upon His return that will be exactly 1,290 days after the antichrist establishes the abomination of desolation in the Temple. Everyone in the world will know that day, and the lying spirits will convince them that the Antichrist has such powers in the heavens that he can gain them eternal Life and that he can defeat the Lord at His coming). 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the Truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness (The Bible says that he who does Good is Righteous, and without His Words it is very difficult, next to impossible, to enable His Good). 13 But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification ( Being set apart ) by the Spirit (His Words are Spirit John 6:63, an God is Spirit John 4:23-24) and belief in the Truth, 14 to which He called you by our Good News, for the obtaining of the Glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or our epistle. 16 Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and Good hope by Grace (See Ephesians 1:13-14), 17 comfort your hearts and establish you in every Good Word and Good Work. (Take notice that in Psalm 119:130 that it is the Words of God that gives us Light and Understanding so that the Bible can equip us to do every Good Work). 2 Thessalonians 3: Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you, 2 and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith (Those who are preaching the abominable Prosperity Teaching do not have Faith, for faith comes by the entrance of His Words and that teaching tramples upon the Spirit of Grace and the knowledge of His Words. That teaching is fathered by the spirit of error, so that means that their hope is of demons and not God. In this way there are preachers and leaders who are not of faith). 3 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one. 4 And we have confidence in the Lord concerning you, both that you do and will do the things we command you. 5 Now may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ. 6 But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received from us. (We are to get out of churches wherein they are not teaching according to the Words of God, for those teachings will bring you directly into the hands of the evil one. When he is exposed to you, then he will devour you instead of help you in the time of the Night. For the wolves flee when troubles come, but the good Shepherd does not flee from you. The disciple John says that you are not to put yourself under the teaching of such teachers but flee from them for their sins will come onto you as you leave yourself open to the hand of the devil). 7 For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us, for we were not disorderly among you; 8 nor did we eat anyone's bread free of charge, but worked with labor and toil night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, 9 not because we do not have authority, but to make ourselves an example of how you should follow us. 10 For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. 11 For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies. 12 Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread. 13 But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary in doing Good (For God gives His Grace to those giving grace). 14 And if anyone does not obey our Word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 66 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

68 company with him, that he may be ashamed. (Take notice that Paul is saying that if a person does not keep the Words of God, then you are to stay away from them and do not place yourself under their teaching. Listen people, this is serious. The Lord told you this, John the Disciple told you this, and here you have Paul telling you this. Will you continue to go into churches that refuse to receive the Words of God and will not repent? The Lord is telling you through Paul that you are doing wrong in His eyes. Tell those church leaders to preach the Truth of His Words, or go out and create your own church. There are going to be plenty of the large churches where the Lord is going to empty the church because the preachers will not teach the Truth and they resist His Words, and thus God will remove His Grace from those churches and those who stay in those churches. This is Paul s teaching. This is John s teaching in his three epistles, as I have revealed in the Writing He Makes Wise the Simple. Jesus tells you to come out of the city of Babylon or share in her sins Revelation 18:3-4). 15 Yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother. (Paul is telling us to first go to these teachers and ask them to teach the knowledge of God and not their own Words. If they refuse then I suggest that you kneel in the aisles of the church in the service and silently call out to God for Him to bring His Spirit and pour out His knowledge on that church. If they will not allow you to do the way of His Words, then just silently leave the church and find one that will, or start your own with your friends who believe Jesus. Do not criticize them, just follow the Lord and gently, yet diligently, guide them into Righteousness, or leave that church). Now is the Time for the People of Israel to Remove the Scales from their Eyes The Apostle Paul told us that the people of Israel have scales over the eyes, and that those scales would last until the Time of the Gentiles is fulfilled. That time has now occurred. The time that Paul was referring to was that amount of time until the Words of God would be opened to the Gentiles. You will notice that in Daniel 12:9-10 that the Lord says that when the Words of God are opened, that many people will be made wise. In fact it says that the wicked will in no ways understand, but the wise shall understand. That statement does not exclude the Jewish people; it includes the Jewish people, for surely there are many wise Jewish people. Further to this, it is reported in Ezekiel chapter 36 that before the Lord cleanses the Temple Mount so that the Temple can be rebuilt, He will first return the Jewish people to the Knowledge of His Words and put His Spirit in them. As I have pointed out within this Writing by the testimony of Scriptures, it is the entrance of His Words that gives Light, and God is Light, and God is Spirit. Daniel 12: And He said, Go your way, Daniel, for the Words are closed up and sealed till the Time of the End. 10 Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, BUT THE WISE SHALL UNDERSTAND. Ezekiel 36: "Therefore say to the house of Israel, 'Thus says the Lord God: "I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy name's sake, which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went. 23 And I will sanctify My great name (Set apart His Great Name of Truth that Is His Words in which He resides in the full measure of Hs January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 67 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

69 Spirit), which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord," says the Lord God, "when I am hallowed in you before their eyes. (The Lord will be hallowed when His Words are made known before their eyes. When they receive His words then they will finally give Him Glory as like David did). 24 For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. 25 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you (His Words will make them reborn in the Spirit); I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh (The flesh is a heart that is filled with His Words, for His flesh is the Words of God). 27 I will put My Spirit within you (His Words are His Spirit that goes in them. For Psalm 119:130 reveals to us that the entrance of His Word is what gives them Light, and God is Light and God is Spirit) and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. (Israel will stand-up and begin to remove the rule and the presence of the world system, and its false currencies from its midst, and Israel will begin to trust in God and obey His Laws). 28 Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God. 29 I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. (This means that after He has restored them with His Words and put a new Spirit in them, that the Lord will then remove the Mosques of Islam from their midst as well as all other uncleanness. They will not even allow false churches to exist in Jerusalem, for the Lord Himself will cause them to be removed). I will call for the grain and multiply it, and bring no famine upon you. (Then the Lord is going to explode technology, such as new water processes, new fuel methods, and original agriculture, and the Famine of the Time of the Night will not affect the nation. For before the Night of the Famine, the Lord will restore Israel and remove her enemies. The land given to Israel by God shall be given to Israel by the deliverance of God, and all nations will fear God for His mighty hand. Then Israel shall build her Temple and prosper greatly during the Night of the Famine. Many people of Israel shall become wise and shall serve God, and many shall be raptured). As you can see from these Scriptures, we can understand that the deliverance of Israel will be after they begin to receive the Words and their eyes are opened. It is then, when they have been made new with the entrance of His Spirit by His Words, that the Lord promises to cleanse the nation from all wickedness. Everyone says that Israel has had scales on their eyes. You may recall that Saul (Before he became Paul) had these same scales upon his eyes. He was among the most zealous of the Jews whom it is said have scales on their eyes. But, when the Lord came in the way of the Word of God as a great Light intercepted Saul while he was on his way to Damascus to arrest followers of the Lord. Paul was left blinded for three days, and on the third day gained his sight. When the Lord came to Saul, He came as a bright Light. This is important to understand. Jesus came as the Spirit of Truth in the Way of His Word Light. Jesus confirms this by His proclamation to Saul that is recorded in Acts 9:5. The Lord tells Saul that He is Jesus, and then states a proclamation, It is hard for you to kick against the goads. This is very important because the statement goes back to Solomon. Of all Jews, Solomon had been the most learned in the Words of God and the ways of the Lord until Jesus. But, as Solomon grew he began to lean on his own wisdom and tried to do things himself, instead of doing them in the way of the Words of God. After a life of failing at this, Solomon records in the last chapter of Ecclesiastes that he had learned that it was much easier during his youth, when he was a preacher of the Words of God to the people. For Solomon says that to go against the way of the Lord to preach the Words of God will result in a vane approach and it is like going against the goads. The dictionary defines goads as: goad (noun) 1. A long stick with a pointed end used for prodding animals. 2. An agent or means of prodding or urging; a stimulus. You may remember that Shamgar took the OX Goad (The sharp jawbone of an Ox), and killed 600 Philistines with it as is stated in Judges 3:31. A goad is associated to a weapon and as a guiding stick in the Bible. In Ecclesiastes 12:11 the wise Solomon revealed that the Words of the Wise (The Words of God) are like goads. Ecclesiastes 12:11 The Words of the wise are like goads (The Words of God are like Guiding Rods), and the Words of scholars (The Parables of the Prophets) are like well-driven nails (In Zechariah 10:4 our Lord says that He is the nail, and we know that our Lord is the Word), given by the One Shepherd. (Jesus says that He is the only Good Shepherd that means that He is the One Shepherd). It seems clear that the Lord is comparing Saul to Solomon who was rebellious against the Words of God when he was a mature believer of God. As the New Testament tells us, Saul was one of the very learned in the Scriptures, and he was well respected by the Priests and Rabbi for his determined effort to protect the sanctity of what he believed to be the honor of God s Law for His people. In the text of Acts 9:1-22 we see that the Lord appeared to Saul as a Light and that He spoke of the Words of God to Saul, and He identified Himself as Jesus, the one Saul was persecuting. The apostle John identifies Jesus as the Word in John 1:1, and in 1 John 5:6. In this appearance to Saul Jesus, came in the way of the Word of God: Light. Jesus was teaching instruction to Saul by doing the way of His Words, that Saul, a learned Bible Scholar should have known. For in Psalm 119:130 it is written that the entrance of His Words give Light and gives understanding to the simple; and in Proverbs 1:2-6 we are told that the Words of the Wise are the Words of Understanding; and further, as we see in Ecclesiastes 12:11, it is the Words of the Wise that are as goads given by the One Shepherd. Thus, Saul had to have begun to recognize that Jesus was the giver of the Words of God, just as the believers were proclaiming. It is important to note that until the Lord s appearance as this brilliant Light, the source of all Understanding, Saul did not have physical scales upon his eyes. However, as it is well documented in Acts 9:17-18 that as soon as Ananias began to reveal the Holy Spirit to Saul, there was something like scales that immediately fell off the eyes of Saul, and he was able to see. The Holy Spirit is the Words of God, for the apostle John says in John 3:34 that when the Lord gives His Words, they do not come with anything less than the January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 68 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

70 Spirit in full measure, and the full measure of the Spirit is the Holy Spirit. Thus, we can see that at this moment Saul realized that the Bible is written with an additional language besides earthly languages. It is written with the Words of God and their Parables, the heavenly language, woven into the earthly languages. We need to remember that the Words of God existed prior to the creation of the earthly languages, so the heavenly language of His Words predated the earthly languages that God has given to man. These scales were that came off the eyes of Saul were symbolic of the blindness of the Jewish people. In this passage of Acts 9:19-22, it is recorded that Paul stayed some days in Damascus, and that Paul spent time with the disciples of Christ. Remember that in Luke 24:44-45 it is recorded that the Lord had appeared to these disciples and He had opened for them His Words and revealed to them Understanding of the Scriptures. We are told in Psalm 119:130 that it is the entrance of His Words that gives Understanding. Thus we are able to see that Paul immediately received training in the Words of God. But, there is something amazing about Paul. He was a learned man of the Scriptures, and he did not take long to learn knowledge. It is recorded in 2 Corinthians 12:1-4 that Paul was also taken up by the Lord in a vision and heard the Words of God spoken in Paradise in the third heaven. The Words of God are the Words of the language of Heaven. Acts 9: Then Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 2 and asked letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, so that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. 3 As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. 4 Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?" 5 And he said, "Who are You, Lord?" Then the Lord said, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads." 6 So he, trembling and astonished, said, "Lord, what do You want me to do?" Then the Lord said to him, "Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do." 7 And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice but seeing no one. 8 Then Saul arose from the ground, and when his eyes were opened he saw no one. But they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. 9 And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank. 10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and to him the Lord said in a vision, "Ananias." And he said, "Here I am, Lord." 11 So the Lord said to him, "Arise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for one called Saul of Tarsus, for behold, he is praying. 12 And in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and putting his hand on him, so that he might receive his sight." 13 Then Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much harm he has done to Your saints in Jerusalem. 14 And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on Your name." 15 But the Lord said to him, "Go, for he is a chosen vessel of Mine to bear My name before Gentiles, kings, and the children of Israel. 16 For I will show him how many things he must suffer for My name's sake." 17 And Ananias went his way and entered the house; and laying his hands on him he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit." 18 Immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he received his sight at once; and he arose and was baptized. 19 So when he had received food, he was strengthened. Then Saul spent some days with the disciples at Damascus. 20 Immediately he preached the Christ in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God. 21 Then all who heard were amazed, and said, "Is this not he who destroyed those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and has come here for that purpose, so that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?" 22 But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt in Damascus, proving that this Jesus is the Christ. John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure. Ecclesiastes 12: Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, before the difficult days come, and the years draw near when you say, "I have no pleasure in them": 2 While the sun and the light, the moon and the stars, are not darkened, and the clouds do not return after the rain; 3 In the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men bow down; when the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look through the windows grow dim; 4 when the doors are shut in the streets, and the sound of grinding is low; when one rises up at the sound of a bird, and all the daughters of music are brought low. 5 Also they are afraid of height, and of terrors in the way; when the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper is a burden, and desire fails. For man goes to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets. 6 Remember your Creator before the silver cord is loosed, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher shattered at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the well. 7 Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the Spirit will return to God who gave it. 8 "Vanity of vanities," says the Preacher, "All is vanity." 9 And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people Knowledge; yes, he pondered and sought out and set in order many proverbs. 10 The Preacher sought to find acceptable Words; and what was written was upright--words of Truth (God is Truth). 11 The Words of the wise are like goads, and the Words of scholars (The Parables of the Prophets) are like well-driven nails, (Jesus is the given by one Shepherd. 12 And further, my son, be admonished by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh. 13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is man's all. 14 For God will bring every work into judgment, including every secret thing, whether Good or evil. In Acts 9:22 it is recorded that Paul preached to the Jews in Damascus and he proved Jesus was the Messiah, the Christ, to these Jews. Have you ever thought of how was that possible? Clearly the Jewish people are a learned people of the laws and ways of God. Thus, the Jews would not believe something that was not clearly stated within their Scriptures. Therefore, what was it that Paul could have taught them that would have proven that Jesus was the Christ? It is actually quite simple to prove this to the Jewish people if they will open their eyes to the writings of Moses, their own lawgiver. Jesus told us that God, the Father, testified of Him; and Jesus told us that Moses wrote about Him. Thus, the answer to Paul s proclamation of proof that Jesus is the Christ can be clearly seen in Deuteronomy 18:18-19, John 17:8, and in Luke 24: The Jewish people were not expecting the Messiah to January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 69 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

71 come speaking the Words of God, but that is exactly what Moses recorded is the very way in which the Father would send their Messiah. In Daniel 12:4 we are told that the Word of God could not come until the Time of the End came. The Time of the End began when Jesus began speaking the Words of God to the people, and He testified in John 4:23-24 that the Time of the End had now come. But, Jesus could not open the Words clearly until all things were completed, and that work was done on the Cross, and it was testified to by God tearing the veil of the curtain in the Temple. Jesus testifies in John 17:8 that He was sent form God. In Luke 24:44-45 He returned from heaven to open the Words of God to His Jewish disciples. Thus it is by the testimony of God the Father that was given to Moses, the recognized Giver of God s Law to all the Jewish people, and as recorded in Deuteronomy 18:18-19, that Paul could prove to these Jewish people in Damascus that Jesus was the Messiah. And the confirmation of the Lord as recorded in Daniel 12:4 that the timing was correct; and, that the work of the Messiah was fulfilled by Jesus. Deuteronomy 18:18-19 (It is a LAW OF GOD to hear HIS WORDS) 18 I will raise up for them a Prophet (Jesus) like you from among their brethren, and will put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. 19 And it shall be that whoever will not hear My Words, which He speaks in My name, I WILL REQUIRE IT OF HIM. Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, SHUT UP THE WORDS, and SEAL the BOOK until the TIME of the END; many shall run to and fro, AND knowledge shall be increased. John 17:8 For I have given them the Words which You have given to Me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came forth from You, and they have believed that You sent Me. John 14: Jesus answered and said to him, If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word; and the Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. 24 HE WHO DOES NOT LOVE ME DOES NOT KEEP MY WORDS; and the Word which you hear is not Mine but the Father s who sent Me. Luke 24: Then He said to them, "These are the Words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me. 45 And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures. John 4: But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and Truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and Truth. Proverbs 9:10 Understanding of the Holy One is knowledge. (Understanding comes by the entrance of His Words per Psalm 119:130, and that comes by the pouring out of His Spirit Proverbs 1:23) Proverbs 1:23 Turn at My reproof; Surely I will pour out My Spirit on you; I will make My Words known to you. Christians today claim that the Jews could not see the coming of Jesus and that was the symbolism of the scales that fell from the eyes of Saul. That is only partially true. If that was the only reason, then why would the Lord say to the Gentiles in Revelation 3:18 that we need to anoint our eyes with eye salve so that we can see? The fact is that we Gentiles of this day have been as blind as the Jewish people whom it is said had the scales upon their eyes. Perhaps the only difference is the hardness of the devout Jewish people. The Gentiles need eye salve because they have at least recognized Jesus as our savior; but, we Gentiles have also missed the Words of God, so the Lord was more gentle and He said that we need eye salve. Whereas the hearts of the Jewish people have been stout against the Lord Jesus and they failed to see that He was foretold Messiah and that He fulfilled all things of the foretold Messiah. Thus, the Lord describes the zealous Jewish people, who were likened to Saul, as having scales on their eyes that is keeping them from accepting the Writings of Moses, the lawgiver whom they believe in. What excuse will the Gentiles have now that the Day of their visitation has come, and His Words are opened to them? They need to obey the Lord and anoint their eyes with eye salve, and then open the Door so that they can see Him, for He has now come as the Word of God. Revelation 3: So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth. 17 Because you say, I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing -- and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked 18 I counsel you (warn you) to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice AND opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. (The Lord is revealing these days through Prophetic Word across this country that He is knocking at the Door of His church. They do not understand why their door is closed, for they say to the Lord that their Door is opened, and that they ask the Lord to come in; but they fail to see that they first need to anoint their eyes with eye salve so that they can see His Words, for He is the Door, and He is the Word. Take notice that the Lord does not tell them that they need to clean their ears, for they have been hearing His Words, but they have not rightfully divided the Word of Truth that they are hearing. They desire to discern His Word in earthly knowledge and not the Understanding that comes through the entrance of His Words as they are known in heaven). 21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. (We cannot overcome until we follow His instructions to anoint our eyes with eye salve so that we see His Words, and open the Door so that He can come in and feed us with the Understanding of the promises that are within His Words. That is when we will be able to receive His Grace in full measure) 22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. Please remember in Luke 19:41-44 that the Lord Jesus wept over Jerusalem and proclaimed that they did not know the things that make for their Peace. This means that if they did come to know those things that make for their Peace, January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 70 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

72 that they could be restored, and they could be kept safe and secure. Notice that the Lord goes on to say that their failure for not knowing the things that make for their Peace was because they did not know the Time of their visitation. Luke 19: Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, 42 saying, "If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. 43 For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, 44 and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation." The Time for the Rebuilding of the Nation of Israel has Come If we now go back and look again at the wording of Ezekiel 36:22-29, it should begin to be clear to the Jewish people that now is the time when the scales are to fall off of their eyes. It is very important to note that the Lord says that He is going to make His Spirit known to them. Since the people of Israel have had scales upon their eyes until now, it is clear that they did not hear and come into the knowledge of the Words of God as a people. It is further of importance to note that in Ezekiel 36:29 that the Lord says that He will deliver them from all uncleanness and keep them from the famine. This tells us that the nation of Israel is going to be delivered from the hands of Islam and from out of the world system prior to Since the cleansing of Israel cannot happen until they have received His Words. That is why Israel will now come under the Great White Harvest Revival. The people of Israel will be raptured at the same time as the Gentiles who have become grafted into the Lord s true vine through the receiving of His Words. The Day of the Lord is not segregated as one event for the Jews and one event for the Gentiles. There is a calling of His church, but the church of Christ is of the Jews first and of us Gentiles by the bountiful Love and Grace of Jesus Christ the marvelous Jewish Son of God, and then by the Love and Grace of the Jewish Disciples of Christ. Ezekiel 36: "Therefore say to the house of Israel, 'Thus says the Lord God: "I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy name's sake (The Words of God is of the Name of Our Lord God. Jesus was sent to speak the Words of God and He said that He came I the name of the Father, and He said), which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went. 23 And I will sanctify My great name (Set apart His Great Name of Truth that Is His Words in which He resides in the full measure of Hs Spirit), which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord," says the Lord God, "when I am hallowed in you before their eyes. (The Lord will be hallowed when His Words are made known before their eyes. When they receive His words then they will finally give Him Glory as like David did). 24 For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. 25 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you (His Words will make them reborn in the Spirit); I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh (The flesh is a heart that is filled with His Words, for His flesh is the Words of God). 27 I will put My Spirit within you (His Words are His Spirit that goes in them. For Psalm 119:130 reveals to us that the entrance of His Word is what gives them Light, and God is Light and God is Spirit) and cause you to walk in My statutes (The Promises of God are in His Words, and all His Words are His Laws. There are 613 of them, but they are not the Laws that most people believe. There are four ways to do each Word of God, and all His Words are Law, so there are 612 Laws of God s Words (4 X 153 = 612), plus there is the first Law of God to Love His name, the I AM, and that is the first Law, and all the Words of God come after that Law. Thus, there are 613 Laws of GOD in Deuteronomy chapter 6, as is so stated in Deuteronomy 6:24, for all the statutes summarized are referencing the Words of God, and there are 153 Words of God, and there are four faces of God revealed in the four Spirits who go forth to do His Works, and in the four faces of each Living Creature who are always seeing to keep the promises of His Holy Words), and you will keep My judgments and do them. (Israel will stand-up and begin to remove the rule and the presence of the world system, and its false currencies from its midst, and Israel will begin to trust in God and obey His Laws). 28 Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God. 29 I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. (This means that after He has restored them with His Words and put a new Spirit in them, that the Lord will then remove the Mosques of Islam from their midst as well as all other uncleanness. They will not even allow false churches to exist in Jerusalem, for the Lord Himself will cause them to be removed). I will call for the grain and multiply it, and bring no famine upon you. (Then the Lord is going to explode technology, such as new water processes, new fuel methods, and original agriculture, and the Famine of the Time of the Night will not affect the nation. For before the Night of the Famine, the Lord will restore Israel and remove her enemies. The land given to Israel by God shall be given to Israel by the deliverance of God, and all nations will fear God for His mighty hand. Then Israel shall build her Temple and prosper greatly during the Night of the Famine. Many people of Israel shall become wise and shall serve God, and many shall be raptured). The time for Israel to rise up and become the Spirit filled nation of their God has come. The formation of Israel as a nation occurred on May 15, Since that time the Lord has brought back His people to Israel from all around the world. Now it is time for Israel to prepare for their work of the purpose of their Lord in this the Time of the End. The Time has come for Israel to get ready to take over the lands that the Father has promised to their fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The Lord reveals in Ezekiel 22:22 that He is not going to do this for these people of Israel, because they have not believed Him, and thus, they are actually unworthy. The Lord reveals that He is going to do it because of the promise that He has made by His Holy Name to their fathers. Remember that we are now in the time of the Day of the Lord. Everything has changed. There is a clock running. The time of the Gentiles has been fulfilled and the Words of God have been opened, and knowledge of God is abundantly available to all those who will hear Him, anoint their eyes with eye salve, open the Door of their heart to Him, and hear His voice calling out His Words and the January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 71 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

73 Understanding of Scriptures to them. The Lord is going to deliver Israel to keep the Promise that He has made, and not one of His Promises can be broken. Further, please understand that when the Lord takes a major action, it is a very dramatic event. The deliverance of the nation of Israel is going to cause many nations to turn to God, and become His nations that He will protect, keeping them safe and secure, in the Time of the Night that is soon coming. Please take notice of a very important truth. Prior to the Lord forming the nation of Israel in one day on May 15, 1948, His people went through a great and prolonged struggle. They also had to go through the terrors and persecutions of the German Concentration Camps, the Russian executions, and the quiet rejection by the world super power leaders. These events were allowed to occur before the Lord established His people as a nation in the land of Israel. They had tried for many years to establish Israel as a nation, but the world system did not let it happen until after World War II. Then the Lord moved them to establish Israel as a nation in one day. Likewise it will be the way in which the Lord cleanses the nation of Israel from all uncleanness. The people of Israel have to first come to His Words and be filled with the Spirit. Then the Lord is going to put a hook in the nose of the nation of Russia to give support to the Islamic nations, and they will come against Israel. The Bible reveals that the Lord is going to bring this to happen for three reasons. The first is that He is going to destroy Israel s enemies and glorify His name, as He states in Ezekiel 36:22. According to Ezekiel 38 the Lord is going to destroy the nations who have followed Islam and trampled upon His Holy City and His people. Prior to taking His people out of Egypt to the Promised Land, the Lord first glorified Himself in front of all people by systematically destroying all of the false gods and false religious worship practices. Outside of Christianity, Islam has become the largest religion in the world. When the Lord destroys the holy sites of Islam by Himself, then all the world will know that Jesus is God, and that the prophet Mohammed is not of God. Jesus said in John 8:47 that all those who do not hear the Words of God are not of God. The third reason is that in order for the Lord to rid Israel of all uncleanness, it also means that He has to deliver the nation out of dependence and its fornication with the world financial system. In Revelation 18:3-4 the Lord says that the leaders of every nation and the leading business people of all the nations, have committed fornication with Satan s world s financial system. The Lord is saying that today the leaders of all the nations are walking in union with the Great City of Babylon, the World Financial System whose currency and financial benefits are January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 72 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

74 based upon a system of deceit. The world system will not interfere with Israel when the Lord clearly delivers Israel, as it is recorded in Ezekiel 36. Further, by such a Divine deliverance of Israel as is described in Ezekiel 38, there is no logical way that the world system would dare to block Israel from claiming the land that was promised to their fathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Israel will claim what God has faithfully delivered to them. In order to do this, the Lord must show Himself mighty in the eyes of the world so that the promise given to them in the power of His name, shall be accomplished; and that is exactly what occurs in the deliverance of Israel as is described in Ezekiel 38. Revelation 18:3-4 For all the nations have drunk of the wine (the way) of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth (The national leaders) have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury (This is a financial reference). And I heard another voice from heaven saying, Come out of her, My people, lest you share in here sins (Economic ruin by her own deceitful plans of the devil that is in her), and lest you receive of her plagues (The famine and plagues that God is sending). Revelation 18:23 And the light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore. And the voice of the Bridegroom and the bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived. (Remember that in the parable of the Pearl of Great Price, the Lord refers to His preachers as merchants of Pearls. This should ring a bell in our heads that we need to look twice at the Great Merchants of His Words on the earth at this time, for the Lord says that they are committing sorcery with the city of Babylon. That is the Prosperity message that they are preaching. The Lord warned those merchants to sell all of their pearls, and to buy the Pearl of Great Price and sell only it. Will they hear and obey Him? Or will they continue to teach you to focus on obtaining happiness in getting the things of riches that are of this world?). As the Lord caused Israel to become a nation in one day, the Lord is going to cause the nation of Israel to become the nation of the lands that was promised to their fathers in one day. We see this in Zechariah 3:9 that the Lord will cause the deliverance of Israel from iniquity in one day. In Ezekiel 38:23 the Lord reveals that because of the destruction that He will do in one day, the Lord will again be renowned in the eyes of many nations. In Ezekiel 39:29 we see that this will occur in those days when the Lord poured out His Spirit on the house of Israel. In John 6:63 it is made known that the Words of God are Spirit and Life. In Proverbs 1:23 the Lord says that it is when the people of Israel turn at His reproof, that He will pour out His Spirit upon them and make His Words known to them. This reveals to us that when the people of Israel turn and seek His Words, that then the Father will turn and make His Words known to them and that means that He will perform His promises of His Words. Please understand that the Lord is going to do this soon because the people of Israel are going to be those who are also of His church, for they will have received His Words. This means that they will also in large part go up in the rapture with the grafted in Gentiles. As soon as the Lord has cleaned the nation of its uncleanness in one day, the people of Israel will take over all the land of Israel that was promised them, and they will also rebuild the Temple. They will rebuild the Temple of God in honor of the Words of God by which is the way and the purpose for which it was built. For they will teach His Words again in the Temple of God and His Spirit will be in them who worship Him there. The sacrifices that will be offered there will be the sacrifices of Praise to God that are the doing of His Words. They may burn sacrifices as God leads them, but it is the doing of His Words as was done and taught by Moses and the Levite Priests that will be the center of the worship of the new Temple. Remember the Words and the Promise of the Lord in regard to the rebuilding of the Temple as is told in Zechariah 3 and 4? The Lord says that it will not be by His Power but by His Spirit His Word that the Temple will be completed, and the Lord will be brought to it by shouts of GRACE, GRACE to it! It is by seeking Good that Grace shall be found by the nation of Israel. Zechariah 3: Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to oppose him. 2 And the Lord said to Satan, "The Lord rebuke you, Satan! The Lord who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is this not a brand plucked from the fire?" 3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the Angel. 4 Then He answered and spoke to those who stood before Him, saying, "Take away the filthy garments from him." And to him He said, "See, I have removed your iniquity from you, and I will clothe you with rich robes." 5 And I said, "Let them put a clean turban on his head." So they put a clean turban on his head, and they put the clothes on him. And the Angel of the Lord stood by. 6 Then the Angel of the Lord admonished Joshua, saying, 7 "Thus says the Lord of hosts: 'If you will walk in My ways, and if you will keep My command, then you shall also judge My house, and likewise have charge of My courts; I will give you places to walk among these who stand here. 8 'Hear, O Joshua, the high priest, you and your companions who sit before you, for they are a wondrous sign; for behold, I am bringing forth My Servant the BRANCH. 9 For behold, the stone that I have laid before Joshua: Upon the stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave its inscription,' says the Lord of hosts, 'and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. 10 In that day,' says the Lord of hosts, 'everyone will invite his neighbor under his vine and under his fig tree.'" Zechariah 4: Now the angel who talked with me came back and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep. 2 And he said to me, "What do you see?" So I said, "I am looking, and there is a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps. 3 Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left." 4 So I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, "What are these, my Lord?" 5 Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, "Do you not know what these are?" And I said, "No, my Lord." 6 So he answered and said to me: "This is the Word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: 'Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,' says the Lord of hosts. 7 'Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone with shouts of "Grace, Grace to it!"'" (Jesus was sent forth to open His Words and those are the Words that enable the favor of God. The Word Grace is the same Hebrew word for Favor. When Jesus came into the world the angels sang Good Will towards man. That was the authority of January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 73 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

75 God for the Lord Jesus to open His Words for man and give understanding so that man would be able to know the way to do His Words to enable Him to do His Good Works for others and thus give the Father the ability to pour out His favor on the man who so enables His Good Works for His Glory. The Capstone is now coming to the Temple, for the Capstone is the Word of God, and He is going to cause the Temple to be built and His Words and His Knowledge shall again be taught there. Because Jesus came the first time, and died to open His Words, this season has now come to Israel). 8 Moreover the Word of the Lord came to me, saying: 9 "The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this Temple; his hands shall also finish it. Then you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. 10 For who has despised the day of small things? For these seven rejoice to see the stone of separation (Many Bibles translate this as the plumb line. However the proper translation is the stone of separation. We see this in that the 153 Words of God are the stone that separates, for they are the Word of Truth and it is by His Word of Truth that Jesus came to separate wickedness from the way of Good. The wall that Zerubbabel was building was the foundation from which Jesus would come forth to open the Words of God as the Father sent Him into the world to proclaim Deuteronomy 18: The Father says that all who will not hear His Words will be separated from Him, as they are not of God John 8:47) in the hand of Zerubbabel. They are the eyes of the Lord, which scan to and fro throughout the whole earth." (They are always looking to see if anyone does Good and if anyone understands Psalm 14:2-3). 11 Then I answered and said to him, "What are these two olive trees--at the right of the lampstand and at its left?" 12 And I further answered and said to him, "What are these two olive branches that drip into the receptacles of the two gold pipes from which the golden oil drains?" 13 Then he answered me and said, "Do you not know what these are?" And I said, "No, my Lord." 14 So he said, "These are the two anointed ones (In the Hebrew this is two sons of fresh oil. There is a big difference from being sons of oil under God s way, and being an anointed one as it is understood in today s church. Sons of Oil are those who have received God s Words and have increased in the Knowledge of God until they have understanding to do Good. These two who stand beside the Lord are the two ways of the Lord Righteousness and Justice, for these are the two ways of the Lord. We see in this case that the Lord is pouring out Wisdom on Joshua the High Priest in 519 BC to make the Temple in the way of God s Words, even though the Words were closed up in 531 BC, so Joshua may not have had knowledge of His Words. If he did know God s Words, he was not allowed by God to write of His Words, for they were now sealed until the Lord would come to the Temple. Zerubbabel was given knowledge poured out by the Lord to reconstruct the Temple Walls in the way in which they were to be done per the Words of God, for the Lord says that it is by His Spirit that it will be done, and this means By His Words ), who stand beside the Lord of the whole earth." Revelation 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty. Now that we have reviewed Scriptures that reveal that the Time has now come for the scales to come off the eyes of the Jewish people, let us consider the entire wording of Ezekiel chapter 36. I ask that you meditate upon what you have been shown in this Writing, and call upon the Lord for your own clarification of this major event. I believe that you will see that this event has to occur while the Spirit of the Lord is still upon the earth in a mighty way. It also has to occur while those filled with the Spirit are still upon the earth. Further, this has to occur before the time that His people are raptured. For the Lord promises in this text that He will keep them safe and secure and that they will not suffer from the famine that is coming as part of the third Seal Judgment, and the only way that can happen is if they are filled with His Words prior to the famine. Further the Lord tells the people of Israel clearly that this is going to be done because of the Word of the Lord that is His Holy Name. Further the Lord is clearly stating that in these days He is going to cause the nations who are around Israel to suffer in their own shame. The Lord is also saying that none of the nations have truly stood up for the Lord. Even the United States did not do its part to cause Israel to be a nation, and the United States is participating in trying to force Israel to broker peace by giving away their land that the Lord is saying that in these very days He is going to reclaim for Israel. The Lord says in Ezekiel 36:5 that He is upset with these nations and that He is going to bring them to shame. In this Scripture, the Lord is referring to things that have occurred against Israel for a long time in history, yet they are also very particular to this day. This is a way that has gone on since way back in time Ezekiel 36: "And you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, 'O mountains of Israel, hear the Word of the Lord! 2 Thus says the Lord God: "Because the enemy has said of you, 'Aha! The ancient heights have become our possession,'"' 3 therefore prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the Lord God: "Because they made you desolate and swallowed you up on every side, so that you became the possession of the rest of the nations, and you are taken up by the lips of talkers and slandered by the people"-- 4 therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear the Word of the Lord God! Thus says the Lord God to the mountains, the hills, the rivers, the valleys, the desolate wastes, and the cities that have been forsaken, which became plunder and mockery to the rest of the nations all around-- 5 therefore thus says the Lord God: "Surely I have spoken in My burning jealousy against the rest of the nations and against all Edom, who gave My land to themselves as a possession, with wholehearted joy and spiteful minds, in order to plunder its open country."' 6 "Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say to the mountains, the hills, the rivers, and the valleys, 'Thus says the Lord God: "Behold, I have spoken in My jealousy and My fury, because you have borne the shame of the nations." 7 Therefore thus says the Lord God: "I have raised My hand in an oath that surely the nations that are around you shall bear their own shame. 8 But you, O mountains of Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches and yield your fruit to My people Israel, for they are about to come. 9 For indeed I am for you, and I will turn to you, and you shall be tilled and sown. 10 I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, all of it; and the cities shall be inhabited and the ruins rebuilt. 11 I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase and bear young; I will make you inhabited as in former times, and do better for you than at your beginnings. Then you shall know that I am the Lord. 12 Yes, I will cause men to walk on you, My people Israel; they shall take possession of you, and you shall be their inheritance; no more shall you bereave them of children." 13 'Thus says the Lord God: "Because they say to you, 'You devour men and bereave your nation of January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

76 children,' 14 therefore you shall devour men no more, nor bereave your nation anymore," says the Lord God. 15 Nor will I let you hear the taunts of the nations anymore, nor bear the reproach of the peoples anymore, nor shall you cause your nation to stumble anymore," says the Lord God.'" 16 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying: 17 "Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own ways and deeds; to Me their way was like the uncleanness of a woman in her customary impurity. 18 Therefore I poured out My fury on them for the blood they had shed on the land, and for their idols with which they had defiled it. 19 So I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed throughout the countries; I judged them according to their ways and their deeds. 20 When they came to the nations, wherever they went, they profaned My holy name--when they said of them, 'These are the people of the Lord, and yet they have gone out of His land.' 21 But I had concern for My holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations wherever they went. 22 "Therefore say to the house of Israel, 'Thus says the Lord God: "I do not do this for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy name's sake, which you have profaned among the nations wherever you went. 23 And I will sanctify My great name (Set apart His Great Name of Truth that Is His Words in which He resides in the full measure of Hs Spirit), which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord," says the Lord God, "when I am hallowed in you before their eyes. (The Lord will be hallowed when His Words are made known before their eyes. When they receive His words then they will finally give Him Glory as like David did). 24 For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. 25 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh (The flesh is a heart that is filled with His Words, for His flesh is the Words of God). 27 I will put My Spirit within you (His Words are His Spirit that goes in them. For Psalm 119:130 reveals to us that the entrance of His Word is what gives them Light, and God is Light and God is Spirit) and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. 28 Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God. 29 I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. I will call for the grain and multiply it, and bring no famine upon you. (During the time of the Night, when the rest of the world is seeing the famine of the Word that brings also the economic collapse of nations, the Lord is going to keep Israel from that fall, because His people will call upon Him through the doing of His Words). 30 And I will multiply the fruit of your trees and the increase of your fields, so that you need never again bear the reproach of famine among the nations. 31 Then you will remember your evil ways and your deeds that were not Good (They were not works of Good that were done by the Father for them for they did not do the way of His Words); and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight, for your iniquities and your abominations. 32 Not for your sake do I do this," says the Lord God, "let it be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel!" (Take notice that the Lord says that the people of Israel are finally going to realize that they have missed to see and hear His Words, and they have squandered so much blessing, and they have not led the nations in the way of His Words as they were commanded to do. In these days of the time of the Night when God has so magnificently delivered them and shall bless them, they shall feel the shame of how they rebelled against the Word of their God). 33' Thus says the Lord God: "On the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will also enable you to dwell in the cities, and the ruins shall be rebuilt. (The Temple shall be rebuilt upon the Temple Mount that God will cleanse of the uncleanness that resides there now). 34 The desolate land shall be tilled instead of lying desolate in the sight of all who passes by. (The Lord is going to destroy the Land, but also the desert that is over part of the lands promised to their fathers shall become fertile, for the Lord has prepared technology to bring water and enrichment to this land) 35 So they will say, 'This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the wasted, desolate, and ruined cities are now fortified and inhabited.' (In the 7 years of the Tie of the Night the Lord is going to use new technology to bring water to the desert land that Israel shall possess and it is going to make the land fertile and vibrant, and Israel will see no famine, just as He kept the things of Israel safe and secure when He brought the plagues onto Egypt). 36 Then the nations which are left all around you shall know that I, the Lord, have rebuilt the ruined places and planted what was desolate. I, the Lord, have spoken it, and I will do it." (See this verse carefully, for the Lord is saying that He is going to do this because He promised it to the fathers of Israel, and it shall occur before the Trumpet Judgments of His wrath come upon the earth. For before those days come His people will be raptured and then they will return again with Him after the 7 th Bowl Judgment. We should not be surprised at this timing, for the Lord says that at the time when the antichrist as leader of the armies of Europe comes into the land of Israel, that there it will be a fertile land. This means that before the rapture the land of Israel must greatly flourish by a miraculous hand of God because the people of Israel will do the Words of God in the Time of the Night, and He will hear them and do for them as they ask. However, after the rapture the land of Israel will be left very fertile, but the people of Israel will be mostly gone in the rapture. Therefore, in the midst of the time of the Trumpet Judgments the Antichrist will come forth as leader of the armies of Europe, and he will make a seven year peace treaty that he will break, and at the end of the 3.5 years he will break the treaty and establish His palace in Jerusalem and set up the abomination of desolation. All of this occurs after the Lord has taken His People out of Israel. For the Lord says that those of Israel who receive His Words, and become His people, will not be made to be shamed again. Thus, they will be raptured in Glory and they will return also in Glory, for they will never be ashamed again). 37' Thus says the Lord God: "I will also let the house of Israel inquire of Me to do this for them: I will increase their men like a flock. (There will be many men who died in the war, and there is going to be much land to till, for Israel will take over the lands. The Lord will bring His people from all over the world to fill these lands and make produce. It will be done quickly, and it will be because these men who will come have received His Words and the Lord is setting them apart by His Truth). 38 Like a flock offered as holy sacrifices, like the flock at Jerusalem on its feast days, so shall the ruined cities be filled with flocks of men. Then they shall know that I am the Lord."'" Do We Truly Live like We Understand that His Grace Comes to us With Accountability? Consider this: Because of willful sin against the 1 st Commandment of God, man has taken the Divinity out of religion, the supernatural out of His Words, the authority from the Bible by boldly changing His Words, have brazenly taken January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 75 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

77 God out of education, has removed morality and virtue out of literature, have beauty and truth out of art, have removed ethics out of business, have trampled fidelity in the marriage, have brought in the way of prostitution to His offerings, and have taken the power of God and the knowledge of the fear of God out of preaching. Is this then a man to whom God should pour out His Divine Grace? As it is for Israel, if the Lord delivers America from its uncleanness, it will not be because of us American believers, it will be because of the promise of the Word of God that He would bring His Word to His people through a foreign language. America will need to find the same shame that Israel will soon find, for it to recognize the greatness of God, so that it can receive deliverance as a nation by the way of His great Grace. His Grace the very Favor of God - comes to us through the Will of God, and it comes to us as Grace for grace. The Lord showed us that the Father does not give His Grace without it being in the Will of God, for the Lord says that he always did the Will of God. Thus, if we are receiving favor of God, it is coming when it is within the Will of God. That does not mean that everything we get is of the Grace of God. There is a very real difference. Sometimes we get abundance of worldly things because the Lord is going to use us as an example of one filled with the lusts of their hearts, and then in the time of the Night He is going to bring them to shame, if He does not do it earlier. It is not scripturally correct, and it surely cannot be of the Will of God for His ministers to receive Rolls Royce cars, or Mercedes SL600 when there are children who are not being fed, in their church, or within a location that is of the knowledge of the church leaders. When these men have no knowledge of His Words, and they do not preach His Words as is His will for these days, then it must surely be seen as apostasy against the Spirit of Grace for us to believe that it is God s Will for His servants to be driving Rolls Royce cars when they know of programs where people are working diligently to feed people on $ a week, or even a month. The point is that Grace from God comes with accountability and within the Will of God. By the Law of the commandments of God, the Lord cannot keep those in the Night who have forgotten His way to do Good for the Poor. John 17: Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are. 12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. 26 And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them." Paul is an example of a person whom God has used his weakness to reveal His strength. Likely everyone remembers that Paul had an affliction, and that three times he prayed diligently to the Lord to heal the affliction. The Lord responded to him that His Grace was sufficient for Paul. The Lord explains to Paul that in our weakness, His strength is made perfect. We should remember that Paul afflicted many Christians prior to being called by the Lord. Saul, before He became Paul, was responsible for many Christians being put to death and even tortured. The Lord changed Saul s name to Paul so as to give Him a different calling upon his life. But, the Lord left the infirmity in Paul s side, seemingly as a constant reminder of what life he had been called out from. As Saul, he had been a thorn in the side of the early Christians, and the Lord had removed that thorn by converting Saul into Paul. The Lord seems to have left the infirmity in Paul s side as a symbolic testimony of what He has done in Paul s life. 2 Corinthians 12: For though I might desire to boast, I will not be a fool; for I will speak the Truth. But I forbear, lest anyone should think of me above what he sees me to be or hears from me. 7 And lest I should be exalted above measure. 8 Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. 9 And He said to me, My Grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take please in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong. James 2: So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the Law of Liberty (Doing His Words for it requires the Knowledge of God, and it is the receiving of His Words that gives you Life, and according to John 15:3 it is the entrance of His Words that swept you clean and put you at Liberty). 13 For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over Judgment. (Those to whom the Knowledge of Truth has been opened by God are judged by their words. So we are to speak and do His Words for others to show Mercy toward others as God shows Mercy to you). The Bible tells us that the Father is a reader of our hearts, and He knows what are our true feelings and intentions that are behind our spoken words. With the Father, the way in which we do things is of more importance, or at least it is of as much importance, as to what we say with our mouth. It is very important that we come to understand that although God is in heaven, and His heaven is located possibly billions of light years away from us, He can see instantly see exactly what we do and He hears all of what we say, and He hears our thoughts being formed in our minds prior to the words ever coming our of our mouths. The actions that each of us do are as closely monitored in heaven as if someone was following our every move with cameras from many angles that are always recording. In addition to this the Bible says that angels are always present to perform His Word in its season and within His Will. I do not say this to alarm you, but to attempt to assist in enabling us to understand that what we do is always seen by the Lord, and therefore when do things that are in the way of following the Lord s instructions, that act is given more honor and recognition in heaven than our offerings of many words. Psalm 44:21 Would not God search this out? For He knows the secrets of the heart. January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 76 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

78 2 Chronicles 16:9 For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong of behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. There is so much to teach about the Promise of the Grace of God that we receive when we diligently seek Good that is revealed within the Bible. This Writing is only a sampling of the depth of the knowledge of doing the Good Works of the Father. What is important for us to completely understand is that it is the requirement of God that we live our life with the goal of focusing on walking justly, and increasing in the knowledge of God, and that means to increase in the fullness of the knowledge of His Words. We are to do this so that we become fully equipped to do every Good Work that is the Will of God for us to do. Jesus said that upon Peter He would build His church. Since the purpose of the church is to teach the knowledge of God so that we increase in enough of the knowledge of God so that are fully equipped to do His Words, so that we enable Him to do His Good Works. 2 Timothy 3: All scripture (All of God s Prophetic Word has to agree with Scripture) is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all Good works. Perhaps Peter gives to us the most complete summation of this purpose of the Lord s church in 1 Peter chapter 4. Carefully consider this teaching of Peter and you will see that we, His church, are to live in the way so that we are equipped and we are able to do all Good things. Peter also reveal that the Father places fiery trials in front of us so that we are prepared for that time when He calls us forth to do every Good Work that He has established us to accomplish for the benefit of His children. The heavenly meaning of fire is an increase in knowledge of God. Thus, a fiery trial is given us to prepare us for that time when the Lord needs us to be fully equipped for being able to enable the Good Works that we have been called by the Will of God to perform. 1 Peter 4: Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, 2 that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God (We are to rest in the eating of the Flesh of Jesus that is the symbol of the Words of God that He died to receive the authority to return and open for us and through them to open for us the Understanding of the Knowledge of God, and God is His Words and He is the power of the Promises of God that are within His Words. Jesus is the key that unlocks understanding of God and God is His Words, His Holy Spirit is His Words, and Faith is His Words). 3 For we have spent enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles--when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries. 4 In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you. 5 They will give an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. 6 For this reason the gospel (Good News) was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the Spirit (His Spirit is Truth, and God Words are Spirit, and His Words are Truth, so we are to live in the knowledge and the way of doing His Words). 7 But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers. 8 And above all things have fervent love for one another (In heaven the meaning of Love is doing the Words of God to enable Him to do His miraculous Good Works for others as we ask of Him), for "love will cover a multitude of sins." 9 Be hospitable to one another without grumbling. 10 As each one has received a Gift, minister it to one another, as Good stewards of the manifold Grace of God. (We are to do Good knowing that whosoever seeks to do Good finds God s favor and has the promise of Eternal Life through the power of God s Grace that is His promise written forever within His Word Grace that will raise us up to Eternal Life). 11 If anyone speaks, as the oracles of God (This is actually the Utterances or the sayings of God. If anyone ministers, as with the ability which God supplies (God gives us His promises within His Words, and when do them, the Father does the Good Works as we are asking by our doing the Way of His Words within His Will), that in all things (All Good Works) God may be Glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the Glory and the Dominion forever and ever. Amen. 12 Beloved do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial, which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; 13 but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His Glory (His Good Works) is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. 14 If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of Glory and of God rests upon you (His Power is with you so that He can be witnessed to be strong when He raises you up). On their part He is blasphemed (Those who do not receive His Words are not of God, and that is blaspheming God, for His Words are Spirit and God is Spirit), but on your part He is glorified. 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters. 16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter. 17 For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the Good News of God? (The Father says that if they will not hear His Words that He sent Jesus to speak that He will require it of them Deuteronomy 18:18-19). 18 Now "If the righteous one is scarcely saved (The Righteous are those who received His Words and do them), where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?" 19 Therefore let those who suffer according to the Will of God commit their souls to Him in doing Good, as to a faithful Creator. We further see in the final chapter of the book of 1 Peter, that Peter clarifies the work of His people who have received His Words and have obtained from Him knowledge of God. Peter exhorts us that we are to humbly strive to teach others and to do His Good Works so that we receive His Grace and obtain His Peace. His Peace is the ultimate goal of man who believes in God, for His Peace is the Eternal Kingdom of God. The name of His Eternal Kingdom is Peace. In His Peace there will be no evil. That is the goal that we all strife to obtain by the Promise of the Spirit of Grace by the Promise of His Word of Grace. 1 Peter 5: The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that will be revealed: 2 Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

79 overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly (This is a very important statement. Peter is actually revealing that if you are a teacher, and you do not pursue the knowledge of God s Words so that you can teach and equip His people entrusted to you to increase in knowledge to do His Good Works, then you are not a faithful Shepherd of God s people. Also, if you seek His Words so that you can teach His people for the purpose that you can gain in the wealth of the things of the world, then you are receiving dishonest gain, for We are to trust God to provide for us while we concentrate on doing Good for others. He is saying if it our lust for things of this world that are driving us, then we are not of God. We become no better than the Prosperity preachers who gloat in having as many as three Rolls Royce s or Mercedes SL600 s, and even private jets and multi-million dollar homes. These men are not of God and they are not living in obedience to the command of God. They are not living justly when you consider what Good Work of God, such as feeding the poor for $8.00 a month, that this wealth of the world that God has allowed them to obtain as the fruit of their desires. This is why they are not of God and they are standing before Him while following in the way of the spirit of error. They act as lords over His flock because they justify their greed as being in the Will of God when it is opposite of the Way of God. God does not chastise wealth in the world, but He chastises against the heart of those who seeks the wealth of the world and claims it is of Him for people to suffer to give them their money so that they may live in luxury while millions and millions go hungry); 3 nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock; 4 and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the Crown of Glory that does not fade away. 5 Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble." 6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. 8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. 9 Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 10 But may the God of all Grace (Only God can raise us up to Eternal Life that is placed by God within the Promise of His Word Grace ), who called us to His Eternal Glory by Christ Jesus (To do His Good Works that are forever because His Words are Eternal, and it also means that we will be always doing His Good Works, even in the Eternity to come), after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. 11 To Him the Glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. 12 By Silvanus, our faithful brother as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true Grace of God in which you stand (We stand in His Promise He placed eternally within His Word Grace that will raise us up to Eternal Life if we keep His Words and diligently seek to do Good. That is the true Grace of God ). 13 She who is in Babylon, elect together with you, greets you; and so does Mark my son. 14 Greet one another with a kiss of love (Could also mean greet one another with humble sharing of the knowledge of His Words). Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. (Peter is saying that those are in Christ Jesus, meaning those who have received His Word and keeps them, has the promise of entering into Eternal Life in the eternal heaven that is known as His Peace ). Amen. The Bible Reveals that Grace is Poured out on Those who do the Way of the Words of Understanding In the Writings He Makes Wise the Simple and The Word of God: Door, I have reviewed the story of Hannah, the wife of Elkanah and the mother of Samuel. Her story is told in the first 3 chapters of 1 Samuel. She went before the Lord at the posts of the Door of what was likely the Tent of the Tabernacle in Israel at that time, and she offered a request unto the Lord. In her request Hannah was asking the Lord for a son whom she would then give to the house of the Lord for being a teacher of His Words and His Laws to the people of Israel. Eli, the priest, said the same words to her as Jesus said to the Canaanite woman, for Eli said to Hannah, Let it be done as you have asked of the Lord. Hannah was giving favor (Grace) to the people of Israel for the glory of the Lord without asking anything of God in return. After Hannah had grown Samuel and had been faithful to her promise to the Lord to raise Samuel in His Way and then to give him to the hand of God s servant Eli to be raised as a Priest of Israel, the Lord gave back Grace to Hannah. For the previously barren Hannah was then given five additional children (3 boys and 2 daughters) by the Lord for to live with her and be in her house with her and her husband. Take notice that she gave to the Lord the son she promised to him, so that he could grow and become the Lord s teacher and God s lawgiver; and she received from the Lord the favor (Grace) of five other children, and five is the number that represents God s Law given to man. The Lord gave Hannah Grace for grace, just as the Lord gave the Canaanite woman Grace for grace. Hannah received greater Grace, for her knowledge of the bread was greater than the knowledge of the crumbs of the bread that the Canaanite had. But, Hannah s sacrifice was greater, and the test of her faith was also greater; as she waited for years before the Lord granted her the Grace she truly desired in her heart. John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Micah 6:8 8 He has shown you, O man, what is Good; and WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU BUT TO DO JUSTLY, TO LOVE GOOD DEEDS, AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR GOD? Psalm 14:2-3, & Psalm 53:2-3 2 The Lord looks down from Heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, WHO SEEK GOD. 3 They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none that does GOOD, no, not one.

80 Grace will be Taken Away from Those Who do not Increase in the Knowledge of His Words of Understanding Those who desire to learn and to receive of God s truly abundant Grace must know the meaning of teaching and giving grace. The Lord has told us repeatedly and repeatedly within the Bible that we are to increase in the knowledge of God. The Lord does not teach us that and warn us of that without reason. If we want the great works of God, then we must truly desire them in our heart and seek after knowledge. I know of wonderful ladies, and even men, who are diligent prayer intercessors for God. They do many wonderful things for the Lord. They pray and they intercede in the demonic warfare for other people, and they prevail much. But, in truth all of those whom I know of have not obtained what they are truly seeking. They want to enable the Lord to do truly powerful and mighty healings like that was done in the days of Jesus on earth and in the days when the apostles walked upon the earth. Others want to see their nation delivered and they want the Lord to bring an end of the oppression against the Word of God in the nation. But they do not obtain this height from the Lord. This is not meant as a slight to these people in anyway. But the reason that we do not obtain that height is because we do not know the Lord as we thin that we do, and we resist being diligent to increase in the knowledge of God. The witness against us in this is that we have not heard the Words of God and therefore we have not known that we are lacking in the knowledge that is limiting us. Grace, or the favor of God that we are seeking comes to us by our action. The Lord makes it clear in Hebrews 10:25-31 that when the Words of God are opened and the knowledge of Truth has been received, and this has now occurred, that it is no longer acceptable to commit these willful sins of dishonoring God s Word, especially of perverting His Truth for seeking the sowing of seed of cash for gaining in prosperity of the world for yourself. The Lord says that you are to trust Him for your reward and that you should not even consider it in your mind when you are considering the doing of Good Deeds for others, inclusive of sowing financial seed. We have failed to love His Word, and sadly instead, we have become lovers of the world. Even we love the beauty of the world without considering that many will next appear chained inside of worm suits. We need to get back to His Word and learn the true key to the receiving of the Grace of the Lord. Isaiah 58: "If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy Day of the Lord honorable, and shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, NOR SPEAKING YOUR OWN WORDS, 14 then you shall delight yourself in the Lord; and I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. The mouth of the Lord has spoken." 2 Timothy 3:1-9 1 But know this that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away be various lusts, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the Truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, (The priests of the Pharaoh of Egypt) resisted Moses (Sent by God to reveal God s message and things to come) so does these also resist the Truth: men of corrupt minds, DISAPPROVED CONCERNING THE FAITH: 9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest (Made evident) to all, as theirs also was. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. 2 Peter 2:1-3 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of Truth will be blasphemed. (They will blaspheme the Way of the Words of God by trying to use this newly opened knowledge to find ways to increase in wealth of the world instead of for enabling the Father to do Good for others so that He may be glorified in front of man). By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. (The straight prosperity message, and the prophetic prosperity message, are both filled with deceptive use of Bible Scriptures so that they twist Words of God s Bible to justify their call for people to put money into their pockets while they do not teach the people the knowledge of Truth that prepares them for the coming economic collapse of the Night Time of the Day of the Lord. They tell people to plow money into business and share the wealth and they ignore the need to plow money into the spread of the knowledge of God that comes from the entrance of the Words of God, thus at the Midnight Hour their lamps will go out when the Lord has His angels remove what little oil that they did have in their vessels See the Parable of the Ten Virgins of Matthew 25:1-13 and Matthew 7:21-23). Proverbs 1: Wisdom (The Words of God that are our Helper, and that Jesus is calling out to us) calls aloud outside (of the city of the world); she raises Her voice in the open squares. 21 She cries out in the chief concourses, at the openings of the gates in the city She speaks Her Words (The Words of God, that are also called the Truth ). 22 How long you simple (naïve) ones, will you love simplicity (naivety)? For scorners delight in scorning, and fools hate knowledge. 23 Turn at My reproof: Surely I will pour out My Spirit on you. I will make My Words known to you (This has always been available to us, yet we failed to seek His Words and the understanding of the way of His Good Works). 24 Because I have called and you refused. I have stretched out My hand and no one regarded (This is a warning that we should not reject His Knowledge of Truth His Words - when they are opened to us. He made it a Law in Deuteronomy 18:18-19 and we should listen because we are going to be judged by our obedience in Hearing Him). 25 Because you disdained all My counsel, and would have none of My reproof, 26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes.

81 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace 27 When your terror comes like a storm, and your destruction comes like a whirlwind. When distress and anguish come upon you. 28 Then they will call upon Me, BUT I WILL NOT ANSWER; they will seek Me diligently, but they will not find Me. 29 Because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord, 30 they would have none of My counsel, and would have none of My reproof. 31 THEREFORE they shall eat the fruit of their own way, and be filled to the full with their own fancies. 32 For the turning away of the simple will slay them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them. (Those who reject His Knowledge in these days when the Lord has opened the Words of His promises to them, as per Hosea 4:6, will be destroyed, and God will allow them to suffer the troubles of the 3 rd, 4 th and 5 th Seal Judgments in the Time of the Night, while He keeps all those who received His Words safe and secure; as He will not allow His oil and wine to be troubled). 33 BUT WHOEVER LISTENS TO ME WILL DWELL SAFELY, AND WILL BE SECURE (AT EASE) WITHOUT FEAR OF EVIL (Please understand that this is great news revealed to you from God. For God is offering to you that if you turn, repent, and change, and if you pray to Him to change the nation, then during these coming times of trouble of the 3 rd through the 5 th Seal Judgments, that you will be kept safe and secure and you will be raptured with the Saints in the time of the 6 th Seal Judgment). Matthew 7:24-27 "THEREFORE WHOEVER HEARS THESE WORDS OF MINE, AND DOES THEM, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. BUT EVERYONE WHO HEARS THESE WORDS OF MINE, AND DOES NOT DO THEM, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall." The Lord is Ready to Pour Out His Spirit of Truth On Us and Make His Words Known to Us His Words are Truth and the Spirit is Truth and the Lord is Truth and He is the God of Truth. The Lord told us that the Spirit of Truth would come to us when His Words are opened to us and we receive them. His Words are now opened to us and the Spirit of Truth will come to us if we seek Him, for the Lord promised us in Proverbs 1:23, that He would pour out His Spirit on us and make His Words known to us if we turn at His reproof and finally see and hear Him. His Spirit is the Spirit of Truth, for He is Truth and He is Spirit, and it is the Spirit of Truth that makes all Truth known to us when He is poured out on us. His Truth is the Words that He speaks to do all things, for what He speaks the Father does the Works for Him, both for Good and for vengeance. In these last days we are judged by the Words of God for the End Times is all about our awakening to the realization that there are 153 Words of God and that they are God and that they are Spirit and that they are the way to Life. His name is Truth and all of His Works are Truth, and if we ask anything in the name of his Truth and in the way of his Truth then He says that it shall be done for us. But to know the Way of Truth, you must first know the Will of Him who sent Jesus into the world, and you must understand the instruction of the Promise of God that is in His Words that He sent Him into the world to speak and the way of the works that He was sent to do. Proverbs 1:23 Turn at My reproof; Surely I will pour out My Spirit on you; I will make My Words known to you. Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever (According to Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:18-21 it is His Law that we are to teach His Words to our children and keep them forever), that we may do all THE WORDS of the law. (His Primary Law is Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:18-21 because the Father is His Words and we are to love the Father with all our heart, with all our soul and with all our might). Deuteronomy 18:18-19 (It is a LAW OF GOD to hear HIS WORDS) 18 I will raise up for them a Prophet (Jesus) like you from among their brethren, and will put My Words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. 19 And it shall be that whoever will not hear My Words, which He speaks in My name, I WILL REQUIRE IT OF HIM. John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure. Deuteronomy 6:4-9 4 "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord! 5 You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul, and with all your might. 6 And these Words which I command you this day shall be upon your heart; 7 and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 8 And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 And you shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates." Deuteronomy 11: Therefore you shall lay up these Words of Mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19 You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up. 20 And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, 21 that your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, like the days of the heavens above the earth. John 8:47 He who is of God hears God s Words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God. There Cannot Be Grace When We Willingly Trample Upon the Spirit of Grace? It is the 1 st Commandment that we Love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, and with all our mind. Then, how is it that we can actually expect the Grace of the Lord when we trample upon His Law that we are to put His Words on our door posts, on our gates and bind them on our wrists? That Law is a Law of honoring God. The Lord God is Spirit and His Words are His Spirit in full measure meaning God is in His Words. Thus, if we do not honor God s Words as directed by God, we are committing a willful sin against the very first commandment of God. January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 80 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

82 When the Words of God came open, then there is no other way around this Law of God. If you desire to be raptured as a saint, then you must obey His First Commandment. If you desire in anyway for His grace to be on your family, on your house, on your business, and on our Government, then you will obey His Law to put His Words on you door posts, on your gates and bind them to your wrists. I have revealed this to countless people and the majority ignores it. However, I ask you to look at this nation and if you do not see that daily it is going into the tank of Satan, then you are blind. Some are doing this by ignorance of not knowing; but others have been told, and they stand in defiance and rebellion against His Law. Now that the Knowledge of Truth has been made known, it is a WILLFUL SIN not to honor God s Words as He commanded us to do. Therefore, this means that according to Hebrews 10:25-31, we are trampling upon the Spirit of Grace when we do not honor God in this way and when we do not teach His Words. Hebrews 10: and so much more AS YOU SEE THE DAY (Day of the Lord that is the beginning of the Time of the End) APPROACHING. 26 For IF we sin willfully AFTER We HAVE RECEIVED the KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins. 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation, which will devour the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has rejected Moses law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 Of how much worse punishment do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of Grace? 30 For we know Him who said Vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord. And again, The Lord will judge His people. 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God. John 8:47 He who is of God hears God s Words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God. If we do not honor God by honoring His Words as He commanded, then we are workers of lawlessness. The Lord Jesus said to us in John 5:22-23 that we are required to honor Him as we honor the Father. If we do not honor the Father then we also do not honor our Lord Jesus. If we trample upon the law of God to hear the Words of God that Jesus spoke and did the ways of, then we are trampling on the Holy Spirit of Promise. That is the same Promises that gives Grace to us for grace. John 5: For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath. 17 But Jesus answered them, "My Father has been working until now, and I have been working." 18 Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God. 19 Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 81 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

83 nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner. 20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel. 21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will. 22 For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son, 23 that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him. Did He not have the way of the Words done on the posts of the doors of those in Egypt who desired to be delivered and taken to the Promised Land? Consider that many of the leading TV Evangelists in the nation have announced that yes, indeed, the Words of God have now been opened. Yet these men do not give honor to God by obeying His Law to honor His Words. They do not even teach them on His Sabbath Day as He commanded them to do. How can they expect the Grace of the Lord to be sealed up with the worthy when the Lord separates the unworthy from the worthy at the Midnight Hour? By Biblical Law He will have to say to them, Depart from me, I never knew you, you that work iniquity. They are workers of lawlessness because they would not obey His primary Commandment. If this insults them for my being in their face, then praise God! For if they become irate enough at me, then they just might begin to search out the Scriptures, so that they may save their own souls, and they may yet help the many who listen to them as leaders to guide them in what the Lord says is Good and Right in the eyes of the Lord. Consider that many of these preachers and prophets claim that we are going to receive abundant prosperity in this year while we willfully trample upon the Words of God and the Spirit of Grace. That is fools gold prosperity that they are chasing after, for instead of chasing the riches that the Lord warned them of in Revelation 3:16-22, they are chasing the gain of things of this world. That means that they are in alignment with the world and they are in enmity with God. The Lord is calling us to repentance and to increase in the Knowledge of God. After we do that, then He will turn the nation and add prosperity to His people that will last through the Night Time of the Day of the Lord. We must come back to our foundation, and honor this Law of God; or I promise to you that the Bible tells us that in the Night Time of the Day of the Lord this nation will cry out in sorrows for the voracity of its economic collapse. Sadly, Paul says in 1 Corinthians 14:38 that we are to let the ignorant to go on being ignorant. So, let them go on chasing after the things of the world and ignore the Primary Law of God to honor Him, as He is His Words. Their ignoring the Law of God that is in Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:18-21, is helping to assure that they will miss being found worthy for the rapture when He comes as a thief in the Night at the Midnight Hour to seal the worthy. Matthew 7: Not every one who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of My Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and by Your name cast out demons, and by Your name do many mighty works? 23 And then I will declare to them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity. (This will be the cutting off of the complacent, rebellious, wealthy, blind, naked, and prideful pastors as per Luke 14:24, because they have refused His invitation to come to His Great Supper and partake of His Food of Heaven that gives the true knowledge of Truth). John 9: And Jesus said, For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind. 40 Then some Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, Are we blind also? 41 Jesus said to them, If you were blind you would have no sin; but now you say, We see. Therefore your sin remains. (How many believers today repeat this statement that Jesus is addressing? They say that they see and that they are rich in knowledge of Him. They believe that they are Spirit-filled and yet their heart is not open to receiving His Words. It does not mean that Jesus does not love them, but it does mean that their clock is running out. They are the lukewarm believers who are actually neither hot nor cold. They have a little of knowledge; but, at the midnight hour, what little knowledge of His Words that is His Holy Spirit, that they do have, will be taken from them and it will be added onto those who listened to His voice when He spoke His Words. At the Midnight Hour there will be many preachers, teachers, prophets, evangelists, healers, and even dedicated intercessors, who will awaken to the sudden reality that God no longer hears their prayers and no longer speaks to them. For they will be numbered among the unworthy because they rejected the knowledge of His Words when He opened It to them. They were not watching and they were caught unaware, and they fell by the way of the snare of these last days as Jesus forewarned them in Luke 21: They will be those who do not understand why the Lord says to them to depart from Me for I never knew you and they are workers of lawlessness. For it is a law of God that we teach His Words Deuteronomy 6:4-9; Deuteronomy 11:18-21, and they ignored His law. I know of many who have heard His Words yet they do not teach them to their children or to those who are their friends. Their pride in their own knowledge will not allow them to receive the knowledge of His Words; nor do they desire to receive His messenger to whom He revealed His Words). The Time of Preparation The Time of the Pouring Out of Abundant Grace is Coming to a Close My heart honestly chokes as I think about the darkness of the Night of the Day of the Lord that is soon coming. I know what is going to happen to millions of Americans if they do not wake up very soon. If America does not turn quickly away from following the world, and if its people do not cry out to the Lord to bring justice and honesty to the America Government and religious leadership, then the people are going to face brutal economic collapse. They will lose everything. The Government will take the peoples children away from them and put them into safe hands. The Bible says that if the nation does not soon repent and turn, then it will be for Americans as it was for the Egyptians in the days of Joseph under the Pharaoh. They will be gathered up and put into Government facilities likened to prisons until they are assigned new jobs and work at the whim of the Government, and not according to their educational skills. For the nation will be run on the feudal system with lords and nobles controlling every aspect of the people s lives, even determining if they can marry and if they are aloud to have children, etc. They will January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.

84 put Christians in separated prisons. The famine that is coming is man created, and that man is under the control of Satan. Only those sealed by the Lord will be kept safe and secure from Satan s deceitful, abusive, and tyrannical rulers that the world system is already putting into place. If you study Zephaniah chapters 1 and 2, you will begin to get the picture of what is coming. Those will be sad days when you lose your home, your car, and your work. Every day s food is going to cost 2 days of wages, and the safe haven of Federal Reserve Note Currencies that you have saved up will be made worthless in one day as they collapse the currency to bring on the Economic Collapse so that they can establish Satan s tyrannical one world order and force the rewriting of every nation s Constitution to that which gives the power to Satan s world system. John 9:1-5 Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a blind man who was blind from birth. And His disciples asked Him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents that he was born blind? Jesus answered, Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the Works of God should be revealed in him. I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is the day (We were in the day that was preceding the Day of the Lord, but THE Night is coming that is of the Day of the Lord); the Night is coming when no one (Referring to a human person ) is able to work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world (When the Lord is removed from us Proverbs 1:23-33, then He will no longer hear us and the unworthy will not be able to hear Him, then there will be no light for the complacent and the wicked). In those days, what will you say to your children when they look into your face and ask you why? What will you say when they say, But, Daddy, didn t you hear Jesus calling you? What will you say if they ask you, Daddy, why doesn t the Lord give us favor and save us? What will you say when your little ones ask you Daddy, why doesn t Jesus provide us food, for didn t He feed 5,000 people, even another 4,000 people? Daddy, why doesn t Jesus hear you calling Him? Or what will you respond if your children ask you, Daddy, I heard that Jesus will not give us His Grace of food because we would not believe Him and we did not give His food to others when it was freely available and abundant? I mourn for the people of this nation because I see what is coming, and I try to get you to open your eyes and see the storms that are coming. What can I do to get you to read the Bible and what can I do to get you to understand that Jesus spoke the Words that are of heaven and that have all the power of God in them? I am nobody, and I can understand anybody being scornful to consider my warnings; but people, please, for your families sake, forget who is writing this, and just read the Lord s Words slowly and carefully with an open heart. I do not care if you never see me, or if you never hear my voice; but how can you reject the Words of the Lord and the clear proclamations of the Scriptures? How can you ignore the promise of the Lord in Proverbs 1:23 that says that if you will turn at His reproof then He promises to surely pour out His Spirit upon you and that He promises He will cause your heart to known His Words? He is your God and your only hope to escape the troubles that are coming. I cannot save you and I cannot make you believe His Words, but if you just diligently try Him, He promises that He will make them known to you. He has testified to you that you must heed His Words, but no one desires to hear His Words. How long will you continue to sleep and not come to His Great Supper? John 8:38 I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with your father (the Devil). John 5: But I have a greater witness than John s; for the works which the Father has given Me to finish (The Father sent Him to speak and to do the Words of God - Deuteronomy 18:18-19) the works that I do bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me. 37 And the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me (Deuteronomy 18:18-19). You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His Word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. 39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think that you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. (If you will listen to this statement of the Lord very carefully, then you will learn a great truth. For the Lord is saying that you search the Scriptures for eternal Life. It is clearly stated in the Bible that it is His Words that give us eternal Life (Psalm 119:130; Proverbs 8:35; John 8:47; Ephesians 1:13-14); and the Father tells us in Deuteronomy 11:18-19 that He testifies that He has sent Jesus to speak His Words and that whoever will not hear Him it shall be required of them, meaning that they will not receive eternal Life. Thus it is those very Words of eternal Life the Words of God that Jesus speaks that testifies of Him). In anger Jesus threw out the moneychangers from the Temple. The Bible records that the Father is angry every day against wickedness. The Bible also records that the Lord has appointed times when He will have His vengeance. We are in the days of the Seal Judgments. We are in the days of God s mercifully allowed preparation time. It is our decision time. Do we believe in Him, or will we go on complacently towards our earned Judgment? We are in the time just before the Lord begins to take His vengeance out upon those who will not hear Him and come to repentance. This is the time when the Lord has called His righteous to come out of following after the way of Babylon and to stand up for the honor of His Holy Word. In recent years we have seen the courage of Americans who rapidly entered the New York City Twin Towers to rescue people while knowing that they could be in great danger. Yet, in opposite comparison there were officers present at Columbine High School who waited outside for 30 minutes while they could clearly hear the shots being fired in the school library and knowing that there were many children still in those rooms. While most of the children in the school rescued themselves, most adults and the police waited outside in cover while innocent children were being murdered inside. In Revelation 21:8 the Lord says that there will not be any cowards found in heaven. I ask you, will you allow the innocent of America to continue to be led into willful sin and corruption, or will you stand up and bring the honor back to the Holy Word and the Holy Name of God in this nation? There is much corruption in January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 83 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

85 American Government and the Lord says that all the leaders of EVERY nation have committed harlotry with the world system that He has called us to come out of (Revelation 18:3-4). What will you do? The Lord says that if you bring America out of following the way of World System, then He will keep this nation safe and secure in the Time of the coming Night of Troubles and Economic Collapse. That is the Grace of God that God will pour out on America for its grace to teach its people to do Good and to increase in the Knowledge of God. Revelation 18:3-4 3 For all the nations have drunk of the wine (the way) of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth (The national leaders) have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury (This is a financial reference). 4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, Come out of her, My people, lest you share in here sins (Economic ruin by her own deceitful plans of the devil that is in her), and lest you receive of her plagues (The plagues God is sending). Revelation 18:23 And the light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore. And the voice of the Bridegroom and the bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived. (Remember that in the parable of the Pearl of Great Price, the Lord refers to His preachers as merchants of Pearls. This should ring a bell in our heads that we need to look twice at the Great Merchants of His Words on the earth at this time, for the Lord says that they are committing sorcery with the city of Babylon. That is the Prosperity message that they are preaching. The Lord warned those merchants to sell all of their pearls, and to buy the Pearl of Great Price and sell only it. Will they hear and obey Him? Or will they continue to teach you to focus on obtaining happiness in getting the things of riches that are of this world?). Revelation 21:5-8 5 Then He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." And He said to me, "Write, for these Words are true and faithful." (All things are in His Words, and by the time of Revelation 21 He will have fulfilled all things, therefore He will cause His Words to stand forever and ever). 6 And He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. 7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things (They shall inherit His Words, for in His Words are all things, and this enables them to be rulers over Kingdoms, as a Servant of the Lord), and I will be his God and he shall be My son. 8 But the COWARDLY, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." (Jesus said that he who has put his hand to the plow is not worthy of Him if he turns back; and also if he is a coward and does not take up his cross and follow Him, then He is also not worthy of Him. For the Lord says that we are to not fear others, but we should put our trust in Him. For as He was with the Israelites in power, both in Egypt and coming out of Egypt, so is He with His people during these last days to keep them safe and secure who will hear His voice and obey Him. This is the second death because when the people in God s prisons are brought forth to come before Him at the Great White Throne Judgment they will be resurrected from out of a worm s body and into the body that they would have had if they would have been worthy of Eternal Life. They will be judged and sent to Gehenna where they will again be put into the body of a worm. Gehenna is called as the Second Death also because it is the prison of God that is called as Gehenna, and it will be the same punishment as that found in the prison of God that was called Death). Like the Jewish Rabbi s of Jesus Time on Earth, We are a People Without Excuse We have no excuse, for the Lord did not leave us without access to great wisdom and power. As Abraham revealed to the rich man who allowed himself to fall into the torments of Hell, the Lord has given to us the Writings of Moses, of the Prophets, and of the Apostles, and that is truly enough for us. For they gave to us the Words of God that are not given to us without access to the full measure of the Spirit of God. The Spirit of God fulfills all of the Promises of God, and it is God s Promise to raise up to Eternal Life all those who will believe on Jesus and keep His Words. Not only that, but in His Words is the power to do all things in the name of Jesus and by enabling the Good Works of the Father by knowledge of the Good News. Thus I leave you with Paul s instruction that should reveal to you the Way to all the answers that you should ever need to all that you desire to do for the work of the Kingdom and for obtaining the Grace of God. 1 Corinthians 2: And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. 3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. 6 However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. 7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory, 8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him." (All things are possible through the Words of God, for those who love Him keep His Words John 14:23-24). 10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. (God is Spirit and His Words are Spirit and the Spirit is Truth and Grace). 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God (God freely gives us His Words, and if we turn to Him He will pour out His Spirit upon us and make His Words known to us). 13 These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches (His Words Per Proverbs 1:23 and Psalm 119:130), comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God (God is Spirit and His Words are Spirit and the Spirit is Truth and Grace), for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned (The Entrance of His Words gives Light January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E. Taylor, All Rights Reserved Page 84 John 3:34 For He whom God has sent speaks the Words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

86 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace and Gives Understanding to the Simple Psalm 119:130; and Knowledge of the Holy One is Understanding Proverbs 9:10). 15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. (The Lord gives those who receives His Words the right to judge others John 20:23. Because the Words of God judges us, then he who has the Words of God and keeps them cannot be judged for He is swept clean by the Word of God John 15:3) 16 For "who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ. (Jesus spoke and did the Words of God, and Paul is saying that he has the mind of Christ to do likewise, and that is the mind that we now must obtain by discerning His Words by the Mercy and Grace of God). Revelation 2:2 2 "I know your works, your labor, your patience, and that you cannot bear those who are evil. And you have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars; Matthew 23: But you do not be called Rabbi ; for One is your Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren. 9 Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven. 10 And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ. 11 But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whoever exalts himself will be abased, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Proverbs 1:23 Turn at My reproof; Surely I will pour out My Spirit on you; I will make My Words known to you. John 20: Then Jesus said to them again, Peace to you! As the Father sent Me, I also send you. 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any they are retained. (He gave them authority over sin). John 15:3 You are already clean because of the Word which I have spoken to you. (His Words come with the power to forgive sin, thus they have the power the acceptable sacrifice to make you clean if you continue to walk in them John 20:23) Hosea 4:6 MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being a priest before Me, because you have forgotten the law of your God I also will forget your children. John 14: Jesus answered and said to him, If anyone loves Me, he will keep My Word; and the Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. 24 HE WHO DOES NOT LOVE ME DOES NOT KEEP MY WORDS; and the Word which you hear is not Mine but the Father s who sent Me. John 3:36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him". Psalm 14:2-3, & Psalm 53:2-3 2 The Lord looks down from Heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, WHO SEEK GOD. 3 They have all turned aside, they have together become corrupt; there is none that does GOOD, no, not one. Hosea 6:6 6 For I desire Good Deeds and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. Micah 6:8 8 He has shown you, O man, what is Good; and WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU BUT TO DO JUSTLY, TO LOVE GOOD DEEDS, AND TO WALK HUMBLY WITH YOUR GOD? Genesis 4:7 7 If you do Good, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do Good, SIN lies at the door. Jesus said that we speak what we know, and we do what we know. I believe that in this Writing the way of Grace has been adequately provided. We are not able to expect the Grace of God at the Midnight Hour if we have not heard Him and if we continue to worship what we do not know. For you do not know God if you do not hear His Words and seek to know the way of His Words to do Good for others, for that is what is required of you, as it says in Micah 6:8 and Hosea 6:6. I leave you with that thought, and these words of the Lord to Nicodemus, for many of us who think we are wise are just like Nicodemus. He was a Rabbi, and yet even in person he could not recognize that Jesus fulfilled what the Father had made known to the Rabbi s to expect in their Messiah. Nicodemus could not see that He needed to be born again so that He could see the Words of January 26, 2007 The 153 Words of God, His Word: Grace, A Truth of God Given To: Floyd E.
