P#197. SCENE 3 SONG of SONGS Chapters 3:6 > 5:1

WE-LOVERS
OF JESUS

ARE TO LIVE

IN ONENESS

WITH HIM

IN

HIS RESURRECTED

LIFE

IN HEAVEN NOW!

• WE – OVERCOMERS, are to be like JESUS,

• behaving as gazelles or harts,

• overcoming barriers

• as THE LORD JESUS in HIS RESURRECTED LIFE

• has been pictured earlier for us!

This is what
is to be

THE CHRIST-like

in our times !!!

• >>2nd Corinthians 5:17!

• This is the kind of character of oneness with HIM

• we are to manifest in our

• living while awaiting HIS comeback!

• This is THE LIFE of THE NEW CREATION that

• we are to live 

THE LIFE
of OVERCOMING &

HELPING FELLOW
BELIEVERS
ANSWER THE CHRIST’s

CALL FOR
OVERCOMERS !!!!

The Rest of the Claimant Christians:
[Cv3:6] ~ “Who is this sweeping in from the deserts like a cloud of smoke along the ground, smelling myrrh and frankincense and every other spice that can be bought? [Cv3:7] ~ Look, it is the chariot of Solomon with sixty of the mightiest men of his army surrounding it. [Cv3:8] ~ They are all skilled swordsmen and experienced bodyguards. Each one has his own sword upon his thigh to defend his king against any onslaught in the night. [Cv3:9] ~ For King Solomon made himself a chariot from the wood in Lebanon. [Cv3:10] ~ Its posts are silver, its canopy gold, the seat is purple; and the back is inlaid with these words: ‘With love from the girls of Jerusalem!”

WE OVERCOMERS

are easily

discerned and declared

by our fellow-believers only

as smelling of religion

• but particularly different from theirs

• (as if CHRISTIANITY is just another religion!),

• seeing us and our presence with skepticisms.

• They don’t realize

• we are actually backed up and equipped

• with THE RESURRECTED CHRIST’s riches and methodologies

• in OVERCOMING!!!! (>>Revelation 2&3).

Our
fellow believers only

may just have heard

of OVERCOMING

• but they have not as yet fathomed their real meanings,

• even and more so The Scriptures that apply to us

• and our roles to play in them!

In our oneness
with
THE CHRIST

• WE are THE CHRIST’s VICTORY at rest

• and in grandeur as exemplified by our being

• THE cloud of smoke in the night

• and as Solomon’s chariot.

WE are made of

THE SAME CHRIST’s
HUMANITY
(wood),

• standing on THE CHRIST’s REDEMPTION WORK (silver posts),

• based on GOD’s NATURE (gold),

• and seated on ROYALTY by HIS KINGSHIP (purple upholstery)

• as arranged on our inside (in our spirit)

• by our fellow believers who have become ....

• OVERCOMERS ahead of us

.... by virtue of the roles

we play between us and
among one another
{>>>T#010}!

THE Individual OVERCOMER:
[Cv3:11] ~ “Go out and see King Solomon, O young women of Zion; see the crown with which his mother crowned him on his wedding day, his day of gladness.”

Here,
WE-OVERCOMERS

are caused by

The Holy Spirit

• to tell our believers only brethren

• to look away from themselves,

• like we did and are continuing to do also

• ..... UNTO THE CHRIST’s HUMANITY in INCARNATION

.... which is THE CROWN

to boast of
at the time of our marriage

and even dating back
to our betrothal!

• As the BED is to its sleeper,

• CHARIOT to its rider,

• and BRIDE to her BRIDEGROOM,

WE-OVERCOMERS

are to have a

COMPLETE UNION
and ONENESS

with THE CHRIST

• from WHOM we answered the call for OVERCOMERS,

IF WE ARE TO STAY AS

HIS BEAUTIFUL LOVER!

JESUS:
[Cv4:1] ~ “How beautiful you are, MY love, how beautiful! Your eyes are those of doves. Your hair falls across your face like flocks of goats that frisk across the slopes of Gilead. [Cv4:2] ~ Your teeth are white as sheep’s wool, newly shorn and washed; perfectly matched, without one missing. [Cv4:3] ~ Your lips are like a thread of scarlet – and how beautiful your mouth. Your cheeks are matched loveliness behind your locks. [Cv4:4] ~ Your neck is stately as the tower of David, jeweled with a thousand heroes’ shields. [Cv4:5] ~ Your breasts are like twin fawns of a gazelle, feeding among lilies.

>>(verse 1)

BEAUTY in our INSIGHTS

• (actually from The Holy Spirit)

• and SUBMISSION and OBEDIENCE

• to GOD’s WORD

• THAT SUBDUES

• OUR INNATE & DISOBEDIENT SELF

>>(verse 2)
BEAUTY in our GLADLY
RECEIVING (>>Acts 2:41)
THE TRUE
UNADULTERATED

• GOSPEL of PRIME 
  IMPORTANCE 
  (>>1st Corinthians 15:1-4)
  
  
• even at our initial reception of it

• as we savored it

• as food by what we did with it

• with our teeth ---

• making its nutrients

• appreciated with palatability

THAT
MADE US CURED,
HEALTHY &
STRENGTHENED
SPIRITUALLY

• 
  

  >>(verse 3)
  BEAUTY in our
  UTTERANCES and
  EXPRESSION of
  THE CHRIST’s
  
  REDEMPTION
  and AUTHORITY

    

>>(verse 4)
BEAUTY in our
UTTERANCES

for THE CHRIST

   

>>(verse5)
BEAUTY in our INTENTIONS

emanating from our tender
FAITH and LOVE

JESUS:
[Cv4:6] ~ Until the morning dawns and the shadows flee away, I will go to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of frankincense. [Cv4:7] ~ You are so beautiful, MY love, in every part of you. [Cv4:8] ~ Come with ME from Lebanon, MY bride. We will look down from the summit of the mountain, from the top of Mount Hermon, where the lions have their dens, and panthers prowl. [Cv4:9] ~ You have ravished MY heart, MY lovely one, MY bride. I am overcome by one glance of your eyes, by a single bead of your necklace. [Cv4:10] ~ How sweet is your love, MY darling, MY bride. How much better it is than mere wine. The perfume of your love is more fragrant than all the richest spices. [Cv4:11] ~ Your lips, MY dear, are made of honey. Yes, honey and cream are under your tongue, and the scent of your garments is like the scent of the mountains and cedars of Lebanon. [Cv4:12] ~ MY darling bride is like a private garden, a spring that no one else can have, a fountain of MY own. [Cv4:13-14] ~ You are like a lovely orchard bearing precious fruit, with the rarest of perfumes, nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon, and perfume from every other lovely spice. [Cv4:15] ~ You are a garden, a fountain, a well of living water, refreshing as the streams from the Lebanon mountains.”

>>(verse 6)
THE LORD JESUS wants us
to pursue HIM in and from
HIS death and resurrection

{>>>T#077}

• just like Magdalene encountered HIM

• right where HE was buried

• unlike HIS disciples

• who left the graveyard and merely announced HIS resurrection

• to them who have not heard

• of HIS coming to life again!

TRUE, without
THE CHRIST’s
resurrection

• there is no NEW CREATION;

• but just as true:

THE CHRIST’s resurrection
is still of no avail

• until WE HAVE that ACTUAL ENCOUNTER WITH HIM

• IN HIS RESURRECTED STATUS! (>>Luke 24:13-35)

>>(verses 7-10)
Seeing things from the
elevated perspective

JESUS wants us to view from

• .... we become one in KINGSHIP and AUTHORITY

• and in love and beauty with HIM

• .... reminding us of GOD's purpose

• in making us as recorded in >>Genesis 1:26

• and realized when HE is

• ALL-ENJOYMENT in LOVING US!

>>(verse 11)
HE enjoys the words
from our lips

• as honey for energizing the weak

• as well as the very young among us.

• HE enjoys as fragrance

• our conduct AS OVERCOMERS!

>>(verse 12)
As OVERCOMERS,

we have become to HIM

• HIS personal garden to solely enjoy ---

• to the exclusion of others;

• a spring to HIM

• only HE can cause to flow or stop flowing

>>(verses 13-14)
As OVERCOMERS,

we are to HIM

• all the SOURCE of fruit-bearing

• in representation of MATURE LIFE!

>>(verse 15)
As OVERCOMERS,

we have to HIM

• become THE DISPENSER or faucet

• of those streams of water,

• all refreshing from HIS watershed!

THE Individual OVERCOMER:
[Cv4:16] ~ “Come, north wind, awaken; come, south wind, blow upon my garden and waft its lovely perfume to my BELOVED. Let HIM come into HIS garden and eat its choicest fruits.”

• Year-round, we shall be spreading the fragrance of JESUS in us!

• Year-round, we are to be the garden JESUS would be enjoying to the fullest!

JESUS:
[Cv5:1] ~ “I am here in MY garden, MY darling, MY bride! I gather MY myrrh with MY spices and eat MY honeycomb with MY honey. I drink MY wine with MY milk.”

With us,
JESUS
 is all-enjoyment mixing

HIS
past SUFFERINGS
with HIS GLORY now(!)

• ---- enjoying the every sweetness of HIS CHURCH

• wherever they who form part of HER are found

• .... a place just like The Promised Land was a land of milk and honey

• ---- where the blending of animal and vegetative life produced milk and honey in great abundance

• ---- where we are told here

• .... HE enjoys drinking wine (from vegetative life)

• with milk (from animal life)

• ---- and WE, in the near future becomes HIS BRIDE

• ---- after blending our humanity with the spirituality

• coming from HIS RESURRECTED LIFE

• {>>>T#075}

---- become

a reality in

our LIFE

as THE CHURCH !!!!

THE HOLY SPIRIT:
[Cv5:1a] “Oh, lover and BELOVED, eat and drink! Yes, drink your fill!”
--

Yes, The Holy Spirit Himself
tells both JESUS and us,

THE-MUTUAL-LOVERS-
THAT-WE-ARE,

to celebrate, eat, drink
and be merry

in this relationship of ours!
