And so as the Body is one but has many members, so also is Christ.
And so as Christ is one but has many members, so also is God in
that Christ is the Express Image of GOD.
And so GOD is MANY-MEMBERED ALL IN ALL. THE ONE
All is OUT of God.
"For so it was ordained between God and Man from all eternity, that
God should be Man and Man should be God, neither without the other;
that is, as God Himself is, and will be, the Paradise, Garden, Tabernacle,
Mansion, House, Temple, and Jerusalem of Man, so also was Man created for
the same end, that he should be the paradise, garden, tabernacle, mansion,
house, temple and Jerusalem of God; that by this mutual union and
friendship of God with Man and of Man with God, all the Wisdom, Power,
Virtue and Glory eternally hidden IN GOD should be OPENED and MULTIPLIED
in MAN. For, God once made all things for Man, but made Man for HIMSELF."
Every possible manifestation of BE-ing is "born" because every possibility of BE-ing IS....in GOD; therefore, every possible manifestation will exist.
THEREFORE, every individual is different, a different manifestation of a possibility in/of God.
THEREFORE, no two individuals will be the same. Yet, each is EQUAL in standing for each is PART and PARCEL of GOD.
THEREFORE, none is higher or lower in WORTH to GOD.
ALL BEINGS ARE GIVEN TO "RISE" TO "RETURN"
IN ORDER TO "RETURN", ONE MUST "OVERCOME" THE FORCES THAT WOULD KEEP
THEM LOW:
The World, The Flesh, The Devil, Principalities, Powers, Dominions,
SELF.
Although each being is equal in worth and standing
with God, yet, each is not equal in attempt
to return to God.
BUT, there ARE levels and degrees [difference] of manifestation,
levels of Office [difference], levels in RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD [difference]
at any given time period just as there many worlds [Realms; difference].
AND, within the levels, there are DEGREES.
ALL OF THESE THINGS ALREADY MENTIONED ARE "WITHIN" AND "WITHOUT";
INDIVIDUAL AND CORPORATE; LOCAL AND UNIVERSAL: LEVELS AND
DEGREES
Additionally, Man is spirit, soul and body and, therefore, can be
influenced in each of these realms
Jane Leade: There are four HEAVENLY Worlds.:
1. Mystical
Paradise: inhabitants have attained to a good degree
of regeneration having been born of the Spirit and having become partakers
of Water Baptism, Blood Baptism and Spirit Baptism. All of these
for change and alteration of their spiritual lives.
2. Mystical Mount Zion -
The Kingdom of Christ. pure heart, love, power, joy, peace, dwelling
with Christ. It is rare that any souls come up to be inhabitants
of this Kingdom for to do so, one must come to a perfect degree of Christlikeness.
Here is a high glorification of being changed from glory to glory.
3. Mystical New Jerusalem - More glorious and magnificent than can be imagined Far surpasses the glories of the two Realms below, as GLORIOUS as THEY are...Each SO Glorious as to be mistaken for the one above it. Each IS truly HEAVEN(LY).
This is the Realm of Crystalline Purity: NOTHING HIDDEN;
ALL IS TRANSPARENT, RADIANT LIGHT. CANNOT be described. Cannot
be told. Jane Leade: "The City mentioned here is GOD HIMSELF...spreading
forth His Godhead in such amazing varieties as to be impossible to describe.
This is a principle and World into which NONE but CHRIST in His GLORIFIED
Humanity and with such high saints as are GLORIFIED with HIS Glory
can have any access. Of this inconceivable abundance of [unspeakable]
Glory, these do continually PARTICIPATE WITH HIM, ascending and descending
as cause requires [ON HIS EXPRESS MISSIONS. This Realm is ALWAYS
"expressly" HIM]. BORN of GOD.
The Crystal Realm: all is CRYSTAL CLEAR, the Mind, the Spirit,
serene, quiescent, renewed in EVERY part, the all-clear life.
POWERFUL ATTRIBUTES. "They" are CLEAR to all who meet them: IT IS
CLEAR THAT "THEY" LOVE YOU. "THE MOTHER" coming down to Earth to
BIRTH EARTH PEOPLE. THE MOTHER FROM "ABOVE ".
CLEAR, TRANSPARENT GOLD
4. STILL (SILENT) ETERNITY
Of this I CANNOT tell.
It takes Dying-Death to be admitted to each Realm. Deeper and
Deeper and Deeper "drinking the Cup". Of Suffering. Scouring
and scouring the Personality, its mental, emotional and will realms; first,
the negative portions; then, ALL...THE...GOOD. All thoughts, ideas,
concepts, wishes, longings, determinations - grinding all down to finest
powder - again and again - until purified by fire.
In order to facilitate the "Rising" ["BRINGING IN THE KINGDOM"],
The Beloved has "Sent Ones"ordained to Birth [bring into being] KINGDOM
PRINCIPLES AND LIFE.
Yet, each Realm has distinct characteristics, signs, marks of the
Principles of "each World". These I will not enumerate. I "know"
them and can "see" them, the manifestation of which world by the "flavour
["aroma"] of each spirit - sometimes by knowing it [the spirit of each]
by what "it IS" and sometimes by what "it is NOT". It is CLEAR, for
there is a resonance [affirming, glowing, a "smell" so sweet] or a disconsonance
[jarring, a "stench"].
"Every World [or Principle] attracts to Itself "its own" which belong
to it.
Brothers
Sisters
Sons
Daughters
Such terms are all AFFINITY terms which convey "likeness" and denote "relationship"...the relationship out of experiencing ALIKE and "coming out" ALIKE.
