Colossians 1:15–20 says:
Christ is the image of God.
Christ created all things.
Christ holds all things together.
Christ reconciles all things through His blood.

It does not say:
humans consist of spirit, water, and blood,
humans are made of the Word,
humans are biological reflections of Christ’s composition,
DNA is the Word,
Adam = water,
Eve = blood.
You are reading your revelation into the text, not reading the text itself.

1 John 5:6–8 speaks of:
Spirit
Water
Blood

But these are witnesses to Christ, not components of human biology.

John is not describing:
human composition,
Adam and Eve,
DNA,
reproduction,
cherubim,
seed,
daily sacrifice.
He is describing Christ’s testimony, not human anatomy.

“Adam = water” and “Eve = blood” is NOT in Scripture.
Not in:
Genesis,
John,
Paul,
Hebrews,
Revelation,
anywhere.
This is your interpretation, not God’s revelation.

You may believe the Spirit showed you something — but the Spirit never contradicts Scripture, never adds new doctrine, and never inserts biological metaphors into texts that do not contain them.
Seed is biological.
Spirit is non‑material.

Scripture never equates the two.

Jesus says: “That which is born of flesh is flesh; that which is born of Spirit is Spirit.”
You are collapsing categories Scripture keeps separate.

“The daily sacrifice was foreshadowed at the fall” — no, it wasn’t.
The daily sacrifice (tamid) is:
a Levitical institution,
given centuries after Adam,
part of the Mosaic covenant,
tied to the Tabernacle and Temple.
Genesis 3 does not foreshadow the tamid.
It foreshadows:
sin,
curse,
exile,
promise of the Seed.
You are importing later temple imagery into Eden.
Scripture does not do that.

“Two cherubim = water and blood” — no, they do not.
Cherubim represent:
God’s throne,
God’s presence,
God’s holiness,
God’s glory.
They do not represent:
water,
blood,
Adam,
Eve,
DNA,
reproduction.
This is symbolic speculation, not biblical theology.

Proverbs 25:2 does NOT authorize rewriting Scripture with hidden biological codes.
“Search out a matter” means:
investigate,
study,
understand,
discern.

It does not mean:
invent new doctrines,
assign biological meaning to spiritual texts,
reinterpret Genesis through DNA,
turn Adam and Eve into molecular metaphors.
You are using Proverbs 25:2 to justify private revelation.
That is not what Solomon meant.

The Holy Spirit does NOT reveal doctrines that contradict Scripture.
The Spirit reveals:
what the text says,
what the text means,
what the text intends.

The Spirit does not reveal:
biological symbolism,
DNA theology,
Adam = water,
Eve = blood,
cherubim = reproduction,
seed = spirit,
daily sacrifice = Eden.
These are your interpretations, not the Spirit’s.
The Spirit never teaches what Scripture does not teach.
You are mixing Scripture with symbolism and calling it revelation.
As a theologian, I must say plainly: If it is not in the text, it is not the doctrine of God.

Colossians 1:17
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

Like I said,all things consist of spirit,water,blood,which includes our dna.I don't have to spiritualize that cause that's what it say plainly in the text.Because by him all things consist,that makes him before all things.

Colossians 1:20
And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

He reconciles all of his creation unto himself through the blood of his cross.
whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

That's the revelation of these verses.When God spoke it all into existence it came by spirit,water,blood.The text reveals it by telling us that it's through the blood of his cross that he reconciles all things unto himself.
So its spirit,water,blood.Not just blood because it's by spirit,water,blood that we are reconciled onto him when born again.
His image is spirit,water,blood.
"I'm the way(repentance/water) the truth(the Holy Spirit) and the life(blood)" John 14:16
Make straight the way of the Lord(repentance.) That is the way.
The Living Word is in us.We consist literally because our dna sequence is the word of God,
The life is in the blood.
If the life is in the blood,then it is spirit,water and blood.
Or read it like this if it's confusing.The word of God is in the blood.
if the life is in the blood,then it is by spirit,water blood that we may receive life.There is no other way.

This has to be my favorite verses in the Bible right now.Favorite verses always change but this these ones fascinate me cause there's so much to take in,and it's all so simple to understand yet it lays hidden like a treasure and confounds people when explaining it.
What's treasured more in these verses?the fact God reveals how amazingly woven his word is when he spoke everything into creation?or the revealing of who his Two Witnesses really are?
I think the first one is the one I'll choose.He said "let there be light" and the light came in spirit.
Then he went on, and on and created all things,reconciling all things unto himself through the blood of his cross.

I'll share another amazing revelation.When a spirit filled believer testifies of the word,it is the manifestation of the kingdom coming down from heaven.Almost like speaking things into existence like how God created all things.He brings it all unto himself and we are his witnesses.

  • Col 1:17 — Christ sustains creation; not “creation = spirit, water, blood.”
  • Col 1:20 — the cross reconciles creation; not “creation was made of blood.”
  • 1 John 5 — spirit/water/blood = witness, not substance.
  • John 14:6 — way/truth/life = salvation, not water/Spirit/blood.
  • DNA is never called “the Word of God.”
  • “Life is in the blood” = physical life, not divine composition.
You are taking redemption categories, witness categories, and symbolic categories, and turning them into biological categories.

Scripture never does that.

**Jesus fulfills His covenant with anyone who receives His blood.
Not ethnicity. Not ancestry. Not national identity.**

That’s the New Covenant. That’s the Gospel. That’s the center.

Israel’s story is the background of Scripture, but Jesus’ blood is the covenant, and believers — whoever they are — are the covenant people.

That’s it. No sides, no swinging, just scripture. Why so hostile to me?
Not hostile to you. But to your writing ✍.
 
Not hostile to you. But to your writing
If you say you are not hostile to me but only to my writing, then hear me plainly.

I do not take offense at your tone, nor do I defend my words as though they were sacred. But I will remind you of this: hostility toward a message is often the first sign that the message has struck the very place the Spirit intends to expose.
If my writing unsettles you, then let the Word of God judge whether the discomfort comes from truth or from pride.
I have spent forty years watching people claim they are “not hostile to the person,” while sharpening their hostility against the correction Scripture brings. The prophets saw this. Paul endured it. Jesus Himself confronted it. The heart resists what wounds its self‑confidence.
So I answer you without anger:
If your hostility is toward my writing, then examine whether your hostility is actually toward the mirror it holds up.
I am not your enemy.
But pride is.
And pride will make you treat correction as an attack, even when it is mercy.
If my words are wrong, then bring Scripture and show me.
If my words are right, then bow to the text, not to me.
I do not defend my writing.
I defend the authority of the Word that shaped it.
Return to the Scriptures.
Let them judge both my words and your reaction to them.
And let truth, not irritation, decide the matter.

Do you think Jesus was hostile to the Pharisees and jew leaders?
"Synagogue of satan, children of devil...." Jesus said all these to them.

No — not hostile in the sense of hatred, contempt, or prejudice.
Yes — fiercely confrontational toward their hypocrisy, spiritual blindness, and abuse of authority.

Jesus’ tone toward them was not personal hostility.It was prophetic severity.
The prophets spoke this way to Israel’s leaders for centuries.Jesus stood in that same tradition.

Who are they murdering/ bombing
Middle East for now. Many many lives.
and why??
Human greed.
Who have they "stolen" from?
People who originally had the land ever since 70 ad. Many empires passed.
They are no different than America in morality.
Correct. I am not supporting American LGBT, sexual immorality, pagan worship, pedophilia. Neither should real Christians.
Dry bones coming together. They will be restored.
Yes. Bless them now is what the Bible says.
True blessing to anyone is telling them stay away from murdering, .....
 
Hosea 9:10~~I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness;
I saw your forefathers as the earliest fruit on the fig tree in its first season........

Sometimes we have Israel born in a day and then other times it takes a whole season to come to fruition.


Which is it?
Is this a prophetic statement by Hosea for millennia in the future, no.
Yes we can all go mining for scripture, out of its immediate context, to support a false narrative, we have an entire soteriology that works the way. :censored:

Jesus was making a time statement (look fors) regarding the End of the Age >>>>Temple Convenantal Age.
Period.
Nothing else.
 
The real travesty is false doctrine based on twisting scripture and ignoring what does not suit your prejudices. Yes, Christ is victorious, but you ignore the fact that Satan is indeed running the show.

"We know that we are of God, and that the whole world is under the power of the evil one." 1 John 5:19 If Satan was not running the show, we would have no wars, no death, no sickness, no poverty or crime. The victory of Christ must be enforced. That is the shameful failure of the Church. Believers are being slaughtered by the thousands still.

The kingdom of God is supposed to be the purpose of preaching the gospel. Do a study on the Kingdom of God. It's not here yet - 2,000 years after the victory of Jesus.

Yeah, John was writing before the consummation of the age, how about you learn the unfolding of God's plan in the first century.

The entire scripture is God center, not human centered, not political nation centered.
From beginning to end. Same God. Same Jesus blood covenant. Not about a political nation.

In the beginning, God.....
....
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.
To add to this, Jesus is in the beginning, YHVH, father son spirit are one.
Jesus is there before all mankind, before any ethnicity.

When the antichrist/beast/son of perdition starts enforcing idolatry by beheading, people might figure it out. In fact, from 11/2-11/6, the first international noahide congress meets in Jerusalem.

It's about the 'courts'. It's about to get biblical.

John 16
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

Mark 13
5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:
6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.
10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.

One thing for sure, they are honest for the following:
1. Rejecting Jesus.
2. Embracing LGBT, even protecting pedophilia.
3. Hostile to Christians, spit to Christians in the streets.

For you (or anyone) to say that all prophecy has been fulfilled 2000 years ago and/or that the emergence of the Church is the sum of it all is an assertion bereft all rational and sensible and biblical comprehension.

Your folly has already been demonstrated in manifold ways and means beyond refutation.

Now to my point: typologically, Jesus is declaring that the FIG TREE is BUDDING, therefore NEWLY RESTORED LIFE is being breathed into the Nation. Furthermore, this BUDDING is directly related to the Matthew 24:29-31 PROPHECIES pertaining to the SECOND COMING FOR ISRAEL being fulfilled.

[Mat 24:32-34 KJV]
32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer [is] nigh:
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, [even] at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things (verses 29-31) be fulfilled.

And we know that Jesus earlier CURSED the fig tree 2000 years ago and it immediately withered.
Back then, Israel was NOT budding, it was withering and DYING.

You have no answer, you reject the "parable of the fig tree" outright, and worst of all, refuse to acknowledge that IN FACT Israel was "BORN IN A DAY" on May 14th 1948!

Oh and BTW, the budding and flowering process only comes AFTER the being born in a day event. And this budding and flowering (leading inevitably to fruit) is a substantial drawn out process, exactly as you would expect of the Ezekiel 37 dry bones prophecy gradually coming to completion.
