John the Revelator has a Reed like unto a Rod. What
is the meaning of the Rod in both situations?
A> Rev.12:5
And she brought
forth a man child (latter day
Lamb), who was to
rule
all nations with a ROD of Iron:
Rev.11:1
And there was
given me (Chosen Vessel) a reed like unto a ROD: and
the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of
God, and the
altar, and them that worship therein.
The Rod of Iron which the Man-child has in Rev.12:5,
represents the Word of
God contained in the two sided scroll. The Man-child is
the latter day Lamb of
God who received the two sided scroll (Rod of Iron) in
Rev.5:7. The Man-child
sings the song of the Lamb (which is written on one side
of the scroll).
Rev.5:7
And he
(Lamb; Man-child) came
and took the BOOK (two sided
scroll of
Rev.5:1) out of the
right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
The Lamb (Man-child) having received the Seven Seals
Scroll (Reward) in
heaven (see Rev.5:7), begins to open the Seven Seals of
the scroll in heaven,
as seen in Revelation chapter six. The latter day Lamb
(after unsealing the
Seven Seals Scroll in heaven) comes quickly to the earth
with his Reward
(two sided scroll).
Rev.22:12
And, behold, I
come quickly; and my REWARD (two
sided scroll:
two edge sword) is
with me, to give every man according as his
work shall be.
Is.40:10
Behold, theLord
GOD will come with strong hand, and his arm
(Lamb;
Right Hand Covering Cherub) shall
rule for him: behold, his (latter
day
lamb) REWARD
(two sided scroll: Rod of Iron) is
with him, and his
work before him.
The Rod of Iron is the two sided scroll which the Lamb
rules the people
with. God’s Word is as iron, it does not bend. The
Man-child WAS to
rule all nations with his Rod of Iron (two sided scroll),
which meant that he
was to rule the nations according to God’s Iron Word
(Rod). At the Sixth
Seal (great and dreadful day of God’s wrath) the
Man-child shall rule all
nations with a Rod of Iron by fulfilling the two sided
scroll of prophecy.
When the Lamb received his two sided scroll in heaven,
he opened all Seven
Seals in heaven. Thereafter the Lamb is seen coming down
from heaven, as
the mighty Angel who has the two sided scroll open
(unsealed), see Rev.10:1,2.
Rev.10:1
And I saw
another MIGHTY ANGEL (latter day
Lamb: Man-child) come
down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was
upon his
head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet
as pillars of fire:
Rev.10:2
And he
(mighty Angel who is the Man-child) had in his hand a little book
(scroll) open
(unsealed): and he
set his right foot upon the sea, and his
left foot on the earth,
The Man-child (latter day Lamb) is typified by Aaron
the High Priest, whose
Rod became a serpent. Aaron placed his Rod before Pharaoh
of Egypt, and
Aaron’s Rod became a cobra (serpent).
Ex.7:10
And Moses and
Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as
the LORD had commanded: and AARON cast down HIS ROD
(representing God’s Word) before
Pharaoh, and before his
servants, and it became a SERPENT
(cobra).
The Rod which the Man-child (Lamb) had in the latter
days, was the two
sided scroll. The Man-child fulfilled the prophecies that
were contained
upon one side of the two sided scroll. The people who
were with the
latter day Lamb had learned the ‘Song of the
Lamb’ which represents
the understanding of one side of the scroll, which the
Lamb fulfilled.
The Babylonian Beast (in Rev.13:1) received a wound
upon one (Great
Christian Nation) of its seven heads, by the
Man-child’s Rod of Iron
(two edge sword). The wound upon the Babylonian Beast was
inflicted
on April 19th 1993, which caused a division
among the people of Babylon
(Christendom). The wound has now healed and all the world
(except those
written in the revealed scroll of life) are wondering
after the religio/political
Babylonian (Christian) Beast (man-made system).
The Chosen Vessel is typified by Moses, whose Rod
became a serpent on
Mt. Sinai before the burning bush. The Chosen Vessel
received the unsealed
scroll from the mighty Angel (Man-child), as seen in
Rev.10:8-10. The
Chosen Vessel prophesies again (see Rev.10:11) with the
Remaining
Bride. The Remaining Bride is fed with the spiritual
Manna (two sided
scroll) while in the spiritual wilderness, see
Rev.12:6,14. The other side
of the scroll which the Chosen Vessel received from the
mighty Angel,
is the Song of Moses.
Moses was in the wilderness with the Israelites who
came out of Egypt,
and ate manna for 40 years, typifying the Chosen Vessel
(typified by
Moses) with the Remaining Bride, who while in the
spiritual wilderness
eat the spiritual Manna (two sided scroll) for 1,260
days. During the
1,260 days, the Beast has healed from its wound and has
made the
people (who are not eating the Seven Seals Scroll) drunk
with its
religio/political doctrine (wine).
Ex.4:2
And the LORD
said unto him (Moses), What is that in thine hand?
And
he said, A ROD.
Ex.4:3
And he said,
Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and
it
became a SERPENT; and Moses fled from before it.
The Rod of Moses (type of the Chosen Vessel) and the
Rod of Aaron (type
of the latter day Lamb) were both made into serpents.
Moses and Aaron were
sent unto Pharaoh to show great signs and wonders at
their hand, according
to the Word of God. There were eleven signs and wonders
which were done
before Pharaoh. The first ten signs were executed by the
hand of Aaron and
Moses. The first four signs that Pharaoh saw were brought
forth by the hand
of Aaron, which held his Rod (symbol of God’s Word).
FIRST FOUR SIGNS BROUGHT FORTH THROUGH AARON
FIRST SIGN
Ex.7:10
… AARON
cast down HIS ROD before Pharaoh, and before his
servants, and it became a serpent.
SECOND SIGN
Ex.7:19
And the LORD
spake unto Moses, Say unto AARON, Take THY
ROD, and stretch out thine hand upon the waters of Egypt,
upon
their streams, upon their rivers, and upon their ponds,
and upon
all their pools of water, that they may become blood; and
that
there may be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both
in
vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone.
THIRD SIGN
Ex.8:5
And the LORD
spake unto Moses, Say unto AARON, Stretch forth
thine hand with THY ROD over the streams, over the
rivers, and
over the ponds,and cause frogs to come up upon the land
of Egypt.
FOURTH SIGN
Ex.8:16
And the LORD
said unto Moses, Say unto AARON, Stretch out THY
ROD, and smite the dust of the land, that it may become
lice through-
out all the land of Egypt.
The first four signs were all brought about by the Rod
of Aaron. The first four
signs which were brought forth by the Rod of Aaron,
correspond with the first
four commandments that were written upon one of the
tablets of stone. Aaron
became the High Priest of God, typifying the latter day
Man-child who is the
High Priest. God gave Pharaoh four warnings, followed by
Aaron bringing
forth the fulfillment of the warnings with his Rod.
Therefore God also gave
the Israelites four warnings (commandments). If an
Israelite violated one of
the warnings, punishment would be executed on the
Israelite according to
God’s Word (Rod, see Jer.1:11,12).
The first four signs which were shown to Pharaoh in
Egypt at the hand of
Aaron, also correspond with the four wings (first four
signs in Egypt) which
are on the cherub. Beneath each wing of a Cherub
(representing the Man-
child) is a hand.
Eze.1:6
And every one
had four faces, and every one had FOUR WINGS.
Eze.1:8
And they had the
HANDS of a man (Man-child) under their wings…
The Four Creatures in the vision of Ezekiel are the
Four Riders (the Man-child
is represented by all Riders) in Revelation chapter six.
The creatures have four
wings and four hands under their wings, as the four hands
represent the four
times Aaron’s hand (with his Rod) brought forth the
four signs in Egypt. The
Four Creatures in Ezekiel, having four wings with four
hands under their wings,
and Aaron who stretched out his hand (with his Rod) four
times in Egypt,
represent the latter day Man-child who has a Rod of Iron
in Rev.12:5.
The latter day Man-child who has a Rod of Iron (two
sided scroll), fulfilled
ONE SIDE (representing one tablet of stone) of the two
sided scroll, just as
Aaron fulfilled God’s Word with his Rod during the
first four signs to Pharaoh.
The Man-child gave the two sided scroll unto the Chosen
Vessel (as typified
by John in Rev.10:8-10), who is now fulfilling God’s
Word (with the reed like
unto a rod, see Rev.11:1) which is written upon the other
side of the two sided
scroll, just as Moses fulfilled the last six signs to
Pharaoh by his hand (Rod).
NEXT SIX SIGNS BROUGHT FORTH THROUGH MOSES
FIFTH SIGN
Ex.8:20
And the LORD
said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and
stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water;
and say unto
him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may
serve me.
Ex.8:21
Else, if thou
wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of
flies upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy
people, and
into thy houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be
full of
swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.
Ex.8:24
And the LORD did
so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into
the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and
into all the
land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the
swarm of flies.
SIXTH SIGN
Ex.9:1
Then the LORD
said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him,
Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews, Let my people go,
that
they may serve me.
Ex.9:2
For if thou
refuse to let them go, and wilt hold them still,
Ex.9:3
Behold, the hand
of the LORD is upon thy cattle which is in the field,
upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, upon
the oxen, and
upon the sheep: there shall be a very grievous murrain.
Ex.9:5
And the LORD
appointed a set time, saying, To morrow the LORD
shall do this thing in the land.
SEVENTH SIGN
Ex.9:10
And they took
ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and
MOSES SPRINKLED IT up toward heaven; and it became a boil
breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast.
EIGHTH SIGN
Ex.9:23
And MOSES
stretched forth HIS ROD toward heaven: and the LORD
sent thunder and hail, and the fire ran along upon the
ground; and the
LORD rained hail upon the land of Egypt.
NINTH SIGN
Ex.10:13
And MOSES
stretched forth HIS ROD over the land of Egypt, and the
LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and
all that
night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the
locusts.
TENTH SIGN
Ex.10:22
And MOSES
stretched forth HIS HAND toward heaven; and there was
a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:
After the first four signs were brought about by
Aaron, t he next six signs were
brought forth by Moses. The six signs which Moses brought
forth with his hand,
correspond with the six commandments which are written on
the other tablet of
stone. Moses (type of the Chosen Vessel) led the
Israelites into the wilderness
and they were fed with manna for 40 years. The Chosen
Vessel (in the latter
days) led the Remaining Bride into the spiritual
wilderness to eat the Little
Scroll (Hidden Manna of Rev.2:17) for 1,260 days (42
months), see
Rev.12:6,14.
God gave Pharaoh six warnings (after the first four
warnings), then fulfilled
the six warnings through Moses. God also gave the
Israelites six warnings
(commandments) and if an Israelite violated any one of
them, judgment was
brought forth upon the violator according to the Word of
God. The six signs
which were shown to Pharaoh (after the first four signs)
through Moses, also
represent the six wings (six signs in Egypt through
Moses) which are on the
feminine Seraph.
Moses and the Israelites are symbolized by the six
winged Seraphs (Bride of
God) that are round about the throne of God. The Four
Beasts (who resurrect
as Seraphs) round about God’s throne in the latter
days, represent the Chosen
Vessel (typified by Moses) and the Remaining Bride
(typified by the Israelites
who came out of Egypt) while they are in the flesh.
Rev.4:8
And the four
beasts (representing the Chosen
Vessel and Remaining
Bride) had each of
them SIX WINGS (six hands of Moses
which
brought forth six signs against Pharaoh) about him; and they were
full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night,
saying, Holy,
holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is
to come.
Is.6:2
Above it stood
the seraphims: each one had SIX WINGS; with twain
he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet,
and with
twain he did fly.
Is.6:3
And one cried
unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of
hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
Aaron’s hand caused the first four signs to be
fulfilled in Egypt, just as there
are four wings (four hands) on the Cherub (Man-child in
Angelic form) and
Four Creatures (Man-child in human form) in the vision of
Ezekiel. The first
four warnings to Pharaoh, correspond with the first four
commandments
(warnings) which were written on one tablet of stone. In
the latter days, the
Man-child (typified by Aaron) with his Rod of Iron (see
Rev.12:5), fulfilled
one side of the two sided scroll, just as Aaron’s
(High Priest) hand brought
about the fulfillment of the first four signs to Pharaoh
in Egypt.
Moses’ hand caused the next six signs to be
fulfilled in Egypt, just as there
are six wings (six hands) on the Seraph (Bride in Angelic
form) and Four
Beasts (Bride in human form) round about the throne in
Rev.4:8; Is.6:2.
The six warnings (after the first four) to Pharaoh
correspond with the six
commandments (warnings) which were written on the other
tablet of stone.
In the latter days, the Chosen Vessel (typified by
Moses) with his Reed like
unto a Rod (see Rev.11:1), shall fulfill the other side
of the two sided scroll,
just as Moses’ (chosen of God) hand brought forth
the fulfillment of the six
signs (after the first four) to Pharaoh in Egypt.
After Moses caused the darkness of the three days
during the sixth sign to
come to pass, Pharaoh thereafter hardened his heart.
Pharaoh then told
Moses that he did not want to see his face again, and
that if Moses showed
up before Pharaoh, Moses would be put to death, see
Ex.10:28. Thereafter
the Lord brought one more sign (plague) on Pharaoh.
However the Lord did
not warn Pharaoh concerning the last sign, neither was it
brought forth by the
hand of Aaron or Moses. All the first born of Egypt were
slain because they
did not place the blood of the slain Lamb (type of the
latter day Lamb/Man-
child) on their door post and lintel as the Israelites
had done.
LAST SIGN
Ex.12:23
For the LORD
will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he
seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side
posts, the LORD
will pass over the door, and will not suffer the
destroyer to come in
unto your houses to smite you.
Ex.12:29
And it came to
pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn
in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that
sat on his
throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the
dungeon;
and all the firstborn of cattle.
FIRST FOUR WARNINGS
Pharaoh was verbally warned (trumpet) before each of
the first four signs were
fulfilled through the hand of Aaron (type of the latter
day Man-child).
LAST SIX WARNINGS
Pharaoh was also verbally warned (trumpet) before each
of the next six signs
were fulfilled through the hand of Moses (type of the
Chosen Vessel).
God gave the Israelites Ten Commandments (warnings),
just as Pharaoh was
given ten warnings (commandments) through Aaron and
Moses. The last sign
(plague) on Egypt was fulfilled without any warnings to
Pharaoh. Neither was
the last plague fulfilled through Aaron and Moses as the
ten previous signs
(plagues) were. In the latter days, God is warning the
inhabitants of Babylon
(Christendom) with Seven Trumpets (Seven Warnings) which
are written in
the Seven Seals Scroll.
The Man-child (latter day Lamb) warned Babylon
(Christendom) for half
an hour of prophetic time regarding the great and
dreadful day (Sixth Seal)
of God’s wrath (typifying the slaying of all the
firstborn in Egypt) and also
gathered his Bride according to one side of the scroll.
Thereafter, the
Chosen Vessel (typified by Moses) received the
understanding of the
other side of the scroll and prophesies again (see
Rev.10:11) for another
half hour of prophetic time, to warn the inhabitants of
Babylon (during
Babylon’s one hour reign) that they should receive
the mark (Seal) of
God in their foreheads.
Only those who eat (believe) of the two sided scroll
(Hidden Manna) which
is given from the Chosen Vessel’s hand at this time,
shall be Sealed. The wise
who are Sealed with the Seven Seals Scroll in their
foreheads (minds), shall
be as the Israelites who obeyed Moses and placed the
blood of the Lamb
upon the door posts of their house. At the Sixth Seal
(great and dreadful
day of God’s wrath), only those who are Sealed with
the knowledge of the
two sided Seven Seals Scroll shall escape the terrible
time of trouble such
as never was, see Rev.9:4; Eze.9:6.
Rev.9:4
And it was
commanded them that (God’s
army of Saints) they
should
not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing,
neither any
tree; but only those men which have NOT the seal of God
in their
foreheads.
Rev.9:6
And in those
days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and
shall
desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
Rev.7:4
And I
heard the number of them which were SEALED: and there
were
SEALED A HUNDRED AND FORTY FOUR THOUSAND of all the
tribes of the children of Israel.
