Biblical Numerology, NUMBER TWO- Part 2

Can two walk together unless they be agreed? Amos 3: 3, N.K.J.V

“The majority are usually found on the side of error and falsehood. The fact that doctors of divinity have the world on their side does not prove them to be on the side of truth and of God. The wide gate and the broad road attracts multitudes, while the strait gate and narrow way are sought only by a few [Matt. 7: 13, 14; Luke 13: 23, 24.].”- E.G. White, Spirit of Prophecy, Vol. 4, 1884 ed., p. 214.

See Genesis 3: 1-24 on the temptation and fall of man. God’s Word plainly teaches that where eternal realities and consequences are concerned, there are only two classes, two choices, and two final rewards. This principle of opposites and absolutes by way of comparison and contrast were established from the first to the last day of creation week. After the fall, it took on eternal consequences. Adam and Eve, by their own free-will choice—not because of nature–disobeyed God, thus separating themselves from the Creator.

Biblical Numerology-Part I

 NUMBER TWO

 God Creator, reverently addressed as Jehovah in the Old Testament, and Jesus Christ, God incarnate, in the New Testament is also introduced to in at least 224 other names and titles (See Strong’s Comprehensive Concordance, Universal Subject Guide to the Bible, under “Christ, the Anointed One,Other Names,”). It should have included Michael, the Archangel or “Commander-in-Chief of the angelic hosts.” (Daniel 10: 13, 21; 12: 1; Jude 9; Rev. 12: 7). He is also identified in the prophetic book of Daniel as “Palmoni, the Numberer of secrets or Wonderful Numberer.”

    “In Daniel 8, Verse 13 the word ‘saint’ is supplied. ‘Certain’ is a combination of two Hebrew words. The first is either pali or pala. The second is mena. Each are applied in the Scriptures to the Lord. The margin says, “Heb. Palmoni; the numbered of secrets, or Wonderful Numberer. This is undoubtedly a referral to Jesus, and Jesus is the one who gives the answer in Daniel 8: 14. [pali, “secret,” Judges 13: 18; pala, “wonderful,” Isa. 9:6 + mena, “numbers,” Daniel 5:26].” http:www.patmospapers.com/daniel/Daniel 8. htm:

The Holy Spirit: do we really know Him? – Part VI

 HOW TO RETAIN THE HOLY SPIRIT

 John 3: 1-21. If from a genuine conversion one has satisfied the conditions Christ specified to Nicodemus on how to enter the kingdom of God—by watery death-by-immersion-baptism (Rom. 6: 3-6; Matt. 3: 13-17), and receiving the Holy Spirit, experiencing Him as the Bible describes His role, various manifestations, and work in the plan of salvation, as Christ’s Successor—how do we retain His fullness so that He can continuously bear in us His nine fruits (Gal. 5: 22, 23) to maturation on the difficult way and narrow gate that results in character perfection (Matt 7: 13, 14; 5: 48)?

 First, the Holy Spirit is the only Godhead-appointed Imparter of the divine nature to all who, by child-like faith receive Jesus Christ as their Substitute and surety,

The Holy Spirit: do we really know Him? – Part V

    For thus says the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and the holy place, with him who has a  of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the hearts of the contrite ones. Isaiah 57: 15, N.K.J.V.

Self-renunciation, condition of receiving the Holy Spirit. Of John the Baptist, the forerunner of Christ’s first coming, it is said that:

The Holy Spirit: do we really know Him? – Part IV

    “The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him. The spirit of wisdom and [the spirit of] understanding, the spirit of counsel and [the spirit of] might, the spirit of knowledge and the [spirit of] fear of the Lord. His delight is in the fear of the Lord, and He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears.” Isaiah 11: 2, 3, N.K.J.V.

The Holy Spirit: do we really know Him? – Part III

 It takes God’s wisdom to know His wisdom. It is through the Holy Spirit, who inspired holy men of God to speak and write the Holy Scriptures (2 Pet. 1: 21) that this wisdom is imparted to every earnest searcher who sinks the shaft of investigation deep into the mines of eternal truth—the Bible.

The Holy Spirit: do we really know Him? – Part II

    We all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” 2 Corinthians 3: 18, N.K.JV.

 It is by the Holy Spirit that truly repentant sinners, who mourn over their sins, are transformed by the renewing of the mind (Rom. 12: 2) into the same image-glory of our Savior, who we see “with unveiled face,” i.e., increasing clearer vision of His person yet as through a mirror, for now. This is how living faith in Christ is developed which is “the substance of things hoped for,

The Holy Spirit: do we really know Him? – Part I

 Much preaching and exposition is made upon the visible “fruits of the Spirit” (Gal. 5: 22-23) yet little is personally known of the invisible “Tree” who bears these nine fruits! Do we actually possess and are experiencing the ripeninggraces of love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness faith, meekness, and self control in our own lives? Why not? How are these to be obtained, retained, and developed into our character?
