1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
Faith was coded by the Prophets, and by Jesus His Pre-Eminence who speaks in parables so that them hearing would not understand, for it was not given to them to know the mysteries of the kingdom. This is the way GOD concealed HIS Logos (plan of salvation) from the enemies of the mankind race, and how they expose themselves by preaching it literally.
The terms "faith and belief" has alomst become synonyms but they are not. Faith is not Belief. We throw questions around such as, do you believe Jesus His Pre-Eminence is the Son of GOD? Sure, ofc we do, but because of this HIS message has not been well understood. The focus should have been the belief in the message, the Revelations which HE, Jesus His Pre-Eminence and the Prophets dispensed to the children of the kingdom about the kingdom, about the GOD, about Salvation; the message is the good news that one must believe in FIRST to receive the neucleus, the hidden manna of the message.
For example:
Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of GOD.
I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.
These verses have been misinterpreted to mean that they are talking about the second death - even before the mention of a second death which did not come to the book of Revelation. Which means the people HE was addressing believed HE was referring to the physical death. Can thou believe this? That you can live and not die? This was HIS message to the people.
Faith however was coded by GOD to conceal the truth of the kingdom. So that, any preacher who would advocate faith without understanding what it actually means is exposing themselves as fake.
So what is faith?
What does it mean: Faith is the substance of things hoped for.... What are the things hoped for here? Can it be a house, a car, a job, a spouse, a child, something that you could want to have here, is that what this is? There is a verse where Jesus His Pre-Eminence said to the Apostles: You've still not asked, ask and ye shall receive. Do you think that they had not asked HIM for anything?
This should reveal that there is what we are supposed to ask for, and its not forgiveness exactly. Its also not material things. If you believe the message, the Gospel that Jesus His Pre-Eminence preached, its one thing; That I live without dying at all, that i put on my wedding garments in life. That i transfigure in life alive as Enoch and Elijah did.
So then what is faith? How can trust or believe be faith here when your desire is to live forever? Will that alone prevent your physical body from dying? No. Rather, there is the path to life, when you on that path it CAN'T lead to death. death is not the result life, life has no end.
John 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
This should reveal that life here is not defining life well at all. Rather, death is the thief, for death stealsyour life from you, death kills your body, and destroys it too. So living as a mortal is not living, its dying.
MEDITATION AND ASSIMILATION OF DIVINE EUCHARISTIC REVELATIONS
the works that Apostle James spoke of, where faith must be accompanied with works. What is that work? Meditation, assimilation of the WORD of GOD, Divine, Eucharistic Revelations into your Spirit Being.
Compare this with:
Joshua 1: 8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
John 6: 53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
HE said HE is the living bread of life that whosoever eats of this bread shall not die but live forever.
Meaning, HE personified HIMSELF as HIS message, as the WORD that we, HIS children must eat, by meditating on HIS WORD, on Revelations from the GOD and assimilate them into our Spirit Being where it hatches that which was referred to as "the incorruptible seed" .
1 Peter: 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
Faith is pointing Revelations (Revelation knowledge). Revelations is the substance of things hoped for (which John the Beloved got - Revelations about the end times, and about the kingdom) The EVIDENCE of things not seen. For by revelations the elders obtained a good report.
You see? A good report. That good report is actually an insiders report about the kingdom, about the plan of salvation. Not a good report about their life for others to read about.
Here is an example of how one could say faith gave a bad report if the report is on his life. Jacob has been called a thief, the brother who stole his brothers birth right. Yet, what he did was reclaim his birth right. (it will take alot of time to explain this), but did Jacob, who played the role of the one who would separate the spotted from the streaked, and the spotless, did he obtain a good report in terms of his reputation? No. Yet, by Revelation knowledge, he named his sons appropriately, according to the names of the 12 tribes of Israel. He was able to inform us about the entry and exit, the river euphrates which they called "Jacobs Ladder". He was a man of Revelations.
We were supposed to get an insiders report from the ones GOD sent to us to feed us Revelations so that we can return home to the Promised land (Heaven) without dying and waiting for resurrection, but by putting on the whole Armor of GOD; the Celestial immortal body which is the very same image of the body GOD coupled for Father Adam, His Eminence, before that body was crucified in the fall and migrated to the mortal state.
That is the good news of salvation, that we can conquer death, that we can conquer aging, sickness, disease by putting on the original body of Man, that was called the Glorified state in life alive without dying and waiting for resurrection.
Thus, Faith was coded and it actually means Divine Revelations about the kingdom, about the Plan of Salvation, about heaven, and the heavenly citizens, about the Son of GOD, about the GOD.
The elders are the Angels of the churches,
1. Enoch, preached the gospel of transfiguration
2. Noah, preached the gospel of the washings oof regeneration
3. Abraham, preached the gospel of circumscision
4. Moses, preached the gospel of atonement
5. Joshua, preached the gospel of revelation
6. Apostle Peter, preached the gospel of the remission of sin
7.The Son of Man -Shall preach the gospel of immortality + incorruptibility - that which saul paul called a mystery.
And Proof of Noah being the 2nd Angel is found in Rev 16:
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.
The book of Revelation prophetically adresses the beginning to the end, so its a mistake to take it from after the events of the apostles only.
The 12 that Jesus His Pre-Eminence had walking with HIM are not the real 12 apostles, they stood in the shoes or similitudes of the real 12 apostles which are.
the 12 patriarchs of the 12 tribes of israel;
Samson, Noah, Enoch, Abraham, Moses, David, Gideon, Jephter, Joshua, Zerubabbel, Samuel, Daniel.
And the Major and Minor Prophets:
Isaiah, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Daniel, Habbakuk, Hosea, Joel, Jonah, Amos, Ezra etc...
And above them all are the ELYAH which are 3 (ELIJAH).
Elijah of Tishbe - Who transfigured in life alive.
Elijah John the Baptist - Who satisfied the Law of justification by being beheaded because Elijah of tishbe beheaded 450 prophets of baal
Elijah the restorer of all things - Matt 17:11 who is the very Son of Man referred to, and the 7th Angel of the 7 churches who will finish the mystery - Rev 10:7
