Reference: >>HEBREWS 12:26-28
I. "once more" (>>verse 26) = HE did IT once in the past, HE is going to do IT once more!
How HE did IT in the past is recorded in >>Exodus 19
verses 11, 15-16, and 20.

The 4 winds indicate the
slow but progressing one
after another fanning-
effect-kind of DESTRUCTION
of all matter & the energy
in them thru these
Safety & Health, Climatic-Environmental
even TERRORISTIC
upheavals we are now(!)
experiencing --- with
increasing frequency and
intensities and also
concerns ---- such as:
* earthquakes, tidal surges, landslides, sinkholes, severe dryness, fires --- on land (solids);
* super typhoons, hurricanes, tornados, relative humidity sufferings, dust particulates from rubber tires, combustion exhausts and incinerators --- on the atmosphere (gaseous matter);
* mud rush, floods, toxic chemicals and human / industrial wastes and organic decay, life-threatening oxygen & carbon dioxide levels --- on water bodies (liquids);
* supply-irregularities of light, heat, power sourced from hydro, wind, solar, waste-heat, radioactive / nuclear energies;
AND, when
we couple this symbolism
with others in connection
with the still to come
eternal judgment of
GOD through FIRE
such as described in
>>Revelation 8:5-7 &
>>16:8-9,
it would not be difficult
to imagine A FIRE of
cataclysmic proportions
when
The ETERNAL judgment
finally comes!
(>>2nd Peter 3:7-14)
Thus far, we have only seen the literal meaning of heaven.
Heaven also speaks
symbolically
of up there, where
only a few can stay.

only a few can stay.
It therefore speaks
of where rulers and
leaders

In >>Revelation 6:12, as a
result of the opening of
the 6th seal, there shall follow
a “great earthquake,”
a shaking
of wild proportions

seen and experienced
by us!
result of the opening of
the 6th seal, there shall follow
a “great earthquake,”
a shaking
of wild proportions
compared with what has
already been heard of,
seen and experienced
by us!
Then, in >>verse 13 we read
that there is to be a great
disturbance in the two
heavens, as the stars from
the outer space shall fall into
the atmosphere and lands
on earth, much like a fig tree
casts her untimely figs,
when she is shaken
by a mighty wind.

disturbance in the two

when she is shaken

But even before that time
comes, we are already
seeing even just in our
television sets and from
the internet --- disturbances,
literal earthquakes and
tsunamis and fires to preview what is
still to come for our
learning --- to prepare us
so that
we cannot be shaken
by then !!!!

- even to the influentials in the entertainment “heavens”.

In >>verse 14, we read:
“the heaven
departed as a scroll

it is rolled together; and
every mountain and island

“the heaven
departed as a scroll
when
it is rolled together; and
every mountain and island
were moved out of
their places.”
- The fact of literal cosmic and geographic disturbances being depicted here cannot be doubted.
- BUT GOD in HIS symbolic language is seeking to show us with utmost efficacy
- something more for our personal understanding now(!)
- individually .... in our individual intelligences, emotions, urges & appetites, and wills
- (>>>T#032)!
The “heaven” with its “stars”
being “rolled up as a scroll”
- are to speak volumes to us individually
when we realize
that HE is closing the book
that HE is closing the book
- on
THE GOVERNANCESin all the forms of GOVERNMENTS, even in CORPORATIONS, GROUP UNDERTAKINGS, FRATERNITIES, MISSIONS, ORGANIZATIONS, INSTITUTIONS, and most emphatically, in our individual selves, in our own world of self-righteousness & entrepreneurships

(>>Revelation 3:7-13)
that we ought to behave and live

- confidently anticipating our RAPTURE
- (>>Revelation 3:10=12:5!!!)
The mountains and islands
being moved outof their places
- are emblematic of those nations' created positions
- being greatly shaken and changed
- as their “stars” (leaders)
- fall one after another from their positions
- in their respective days of GOD’s wrath.
The “stars” which fall
are simply suffering
the same fate as
the original star ---- Lucifer
are simply suffering
the same fate as
the original star ---- Lucifer
- who was cast out of GOD’s heaven (>>John 12:31, >>Rev. 9:1)
- and will soon be cast out of his own heaven presently(!!!)
- in the atmosphere surrounding the earth (>>Ephesians 6:12)
- here on earth
- .... when ALL THE OVERCOMER-MESSENGERS still alive then who metamorphosed into THE CHURCH in Brotherly Love [>>Revelation 3:7-13] special mention they from THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
- as promised to THEM in >>Revelation 2:26-28
- [>>>T#096]
- shall have been caught up unto GOD and to HIS throne
- (>>Revelation 12:5)
- and Satan is to bring about THE GREAT TRIBULATION here on earth
- (>>Revelation 12:9).
Backtracking to
>>Revelation 6:15
>>Revelation 6:15
- we see a listing of the “stars” who fall as
- “… kings --- of great men, and of the rich men, and of the chief captains, and of the mighty men.”
- They who have been stars in the political, military, judicial, commercial, religious, academe, sports, occult, "intelligence", legal, social worlds, even them in the world of scams, etc.
are to find themselves
in the same
as the masses
- from whom earlier they enjoyed being separate as they enjoyed their pre-eminence from,
- then .... intends to hide themselves from the wrath
- of HIM WHO sits on THE THRONE
- (>>Rev. 6:16-17)
And all these will happen at a TIME when
- people such as they
- very well-entrenched in their powers, influences, and positions
- are all of a sudden shaken, as some are already are, by a mighty gust of wind!
III. "denotes the removal of those things which can be shaken, as of created things" (>>verse 27) = removal of every matter & the potential energies in them, dangling and shakable in creation!
Looking again to the pattern
at Mt. Sinai
at Mt. Sinai
- >>Hebrews 12:26 says that GOD’s voice
- “shook the earth.”
- GOD spoke audibly from heaven on that particular occasion.
But to us
- it should be understood as for our reflection now(!)
- of that which GOD purposes to do
- in these last days for the whole of mankind.
That GOD’s voice
- must shake the nations
- points out to us now(!)
- will shake the nations on earth in this last days!
We read in >>Exodus 19:19 that
- when the glory of THE LORD then
- descended on Mount Sinai
- “the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder” …
- In GOD’s symbolic language
- a trumpet portrays a sound preceeding a very important message.
The apostle John
in the isle of Patmos
in the isle of Patmos
- was in The Spirit on THE LORD’s DAY
- and he heard behind him “… a great voice
- as of a trumpet “
- (>>Revelation 1:10).
- When he turned to see who was speaking
- HE was none other than his GLORIFIED LORDcoming withTHE MESSAGE for
him to give
that we be cleansed
from those corruptions
to render us
unblemished &
without wrinkle
via our OBEDIENCE to
HIS CALL FOR
OVERCOMERS
One of the feasts
GOD established for
The Jews then was
The Feast of Trumpets
(>>Leviticus 23:24).
This was on the 1st day
of the 7th month with which they start THEIR NEW YEAR.
The 7th month was
the beginning of
their agricultural year
and also the
consummation of
their religious year.
Thus, the start of
the 7th month is both a beginning and a consummation. |
How appropriate
of these days

ORGANIZATIONS.
The shaking effects invariably from
#1 - man's terrorisms
(2) men’s entrepreneurships
(3) inadequacies and failures in engineering designs, of concepts, construction and methodologies
- have resulted in the collapse of
- those which have found & enjoyed our exaltation through the years
- by and in our religious, governmental & business REALMS
- among those accomplished by men --- such STRUCTURES as buildings insisted upon being called "churches"(!), sacred altars, bellfries, shrines, icons, places of worship
- and worldly categorized as accomplishments we-cannot-anymore-do-without
- …. dams, tunnels, skyscrapers, walls, bridges, highways, skyways
- governments, business empires, academic, entertainment
- even INSTITUTIONS for charity and awards bodies, etc.
- all losing their credibilities as such!
Earthquakes and weather
also cause
also cause
- trees and mountains to be moved and to collapse
- as the earth’s crusts shifts vertically and side-wise
- and wets the underneath causing landslides and mud rushes to the surface!
The shakings of NATURE
is only a type and a picture
of how GOD purposed
is only a type and a picture
of how GOD purposed
- to also shake THE ENTIRE SOCIETY & GOVERNANCES of mankind
- including all his initiatives and entrepreneurial systems
- --- governmental, religious, political, partisan, financial, social, even relief, economic, military, legal, justice
- and all kinds and variations and numbers of institutions and organizations
- …. the purpose being
to bring down
[>>>FRUSTRATE!!!]
those who are
high and exalted and
have become the world’s
false hopes
[>>>FRUSTRATE!!!]
those who are
high and exalted and
have become the world’s
false hopes
- because they have vaunted themselves against GOD
- in pride, in self-sufficiency and in sustainability
- even in the matter of facilitating seem-right-way of
- FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS
- THROUGH ORGANIZATIONS, NGOs & LINE AGENCIES
- and BETWEEN co-equals in what ought-to-be SEPARATED POWERS in governments
- …. all of them failing GOD’s way of INDIVIDUAL PERSONAL GIVING
Mankind has since the time of Isaiah in >>Isaiah 2:11-17,
>>20-21 been forewarned by GOD of this.
>>Isaiah 2:11-17, 20-21 ~
11 The proud look of man will be abased and the loftiness of man will be humbled, and THE LORD ALONE will be exalted on that day.
12 For THE LORD OF HOSTS will have a reckoning against everyone who is proud and lofty and against everyone who is lifted up that he maybe abased.
13 And it will be against all the cedars of Lebanon that are lofty and lifted up, against all the oaks of Bashan,
14 against all the lofty mountains, against all the hills that are lifted up,
15 against every high tower, against every fortified wall,
16 against all the ships of Tarshish and against all the beautiful crafts.
17 The pride of man will be humbled and the loftiness of man will be exalted on that day........
20 In that day, men will throw away to the rodents and bats their idols of silver and idols of gold, which they make to worship
21 To go into the clefts of the rocks and to the overhanging crags before the terror of THE LORD and the splendor of HIS majesty, when HE arises to shake the earth!”
In THE preceding SCRIPTURES
- there is much of symbolism we can learn
- and observe as true in this end time.
- The majestic cedars which grew only in the mountains in Lebanon
- are symbolic of our TOP world LEADERS
- they in high places in the mountains or nations of the world.
- The cedar was considered the king of trees in the Middle East.
The oak trees were
the strong trees
the strong trees
- emblematic of the strong and powerful men
- (>>Amos 2:9).
- Bashan, where oaks abounded, was largely a tableland east of Jordan with some hills and lesser mountains
- emblematic of the next in influence rated LEADERS in lower positions
- but just the same strong and influential.
- Oak groves in early times were used as places of religious happenings and worship >>>(T#012).
- Altars were often set up in them (>>Joshua 24:26)
- Idolatry was practiced under them (>>Isaiah 1:29, >>57:5, >>Ezekiel 6:13)
- and idols were made of oaks (>>Isaiah 44:14)
Thus, “oaks of Bashan”
refers to our RELIGIOUS
LEADERS WHO
will continue not to behave
as ELDERS to their followers
and refuse to share
THE UNIVERSAL PRIESTHOOD
with US in our time!!!!
refers to our RELIGIOUS
LEADERS WHO
will continue not to behave
as ELDERS to their followers
and refuse to share
THE UNIVERSAL PRIESTHOOD
with US in our time!!!!
In >>Isaiah 2:14-16
- we can see symbolically portrayed
- the 3-fold components which have since been shaping up
- THE WORLD's CIVILIZATIONS
- ---- cooperating but more of the time competing
- with each other --- influencing this world
and triggering
THE impending
GOD’s JUDGMENT
THE impending
GOD’s JUDGMENT
- on THE LEADERS and FOLLOWERS of each of them:
1. verse 14 = the greater and lesser nations and their leaders pronounced partisan, dynastic, if not their personal political systems & agenda trying to influence the world’s civilizations through their governances
2. verse 15 = the evidently religious world with the many denominational walls and fences which separate thru their respective governances and scatter GOD’s people securely even unto the very end of time by these towers of hierarchial set-ups going international in their respective efforts as denominations, watching out for their own respective umbrella organization's interests
- perhaps
NOTknowing they have abandoned GOD's required focus
- on making their members individually grow with one another >>>(T#010)
- in LIFE as disciples of THE CHRIST
- without their leaderships!
3. verse 16 = the strikingly commercial ventures engaged in trading, advertising, shipping, accounting and information dissemination for purposes of profit, --- trying to outdo each other
among the nations.
among the nations.
Having ideas relative hereto,
it should now be easy
to realizeall these that
can be shaken
as put across to us
in
in
>>Hebrews 12:27!
REFLECT ON
THESE “THINGS”
THAT ARE
TO BE
SHAKEN BECAUSE
THEY ARE
SHAKABLE!
YOUR ATTITUDES
TOWARD THEM!
THESE are very easy to
discern and observe
- as basis for our REPENTANCE
- >>>T#002
- while we are living in this world.
BUT the shaking will not
be confined
be confined
in the macrocosm of the outer world in which we live
- but most importantly and with extreme urgency for us
- to realize (>>1st Timothy 3:15; >>1st Peter 4:17)
---- in the microcosm of our inner beings
in our soul and spirit !!!
in our soul and spirit !!!
GOD is going to
- -- (IF HE has not yet started do this to you!)
- -- shake us all loose
- from every IDOL
- (wealth, political power, influence, sex)
- that we are continuing to hold on
- in our EGOs (>>Ezekiel 14:4) and
- from EVERYTHING that we may be holding on
- which are all not of HIM.
HE is going to shake
- all that can be shaken WITHIN US
- i n d i v i d u a l l y
- that only those in us which cannot be shaken
- may remain.
>>Hebrews 12:28 however declares
with full clarity that
the thing that cannot
be shaken is GOD’s RULE ---THEOCRACY---
in our
individual
p e r s o n a l
lives
via THE NEW BIRTH through our living in and abiding with THE WORD of GOD (>>1st Peter 1:23) ---- from our responses to >>>The Message of THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD after we believe THE LORDSHIP & THE CHRISTHOOD of JESUS ..... & obeyed >>Acts 2:36-38.
Notice that the inspired
statement that is
>>Hebrews 12:27-28
as a present continuous process every time we input ourselves with THE WORD of GOD
|
AMIDST this continuous and
ongoing process
ongoing process
- the responsibility foremost in us is that
- we must have the realization of The Indwelling of The Holy Spirit >>>(T#029) & His Leading >>> T#030
- so that we too can be assured that
all that cannot live with HIM as HE is IN US
- are expelled
- and all that remains in us
- are all that endures forever
- and
cannot be shakenby any of living's circumstances.
What a wondrous revelation
of GOD’s purposes!!!
of GOD’s purposes!!!
- for all these shakings and anxieties happening to
- the physical world around us
- society & government in general and
- in our respective families and selves in particular!
- >>>T#052 & then T#053
While GOD is in the process
of shaking everything
of shaking everything
that can be shaken
- .... we are seeking entering into and receiving
- that which cannot be shaken (>>Hebrews 12:28) ---
(>>Matthew 6:33)
- that should be IN US soonest !!!! (>>Luke 17:21)
And John saw the new
heaven and earth.
And JESUS confirmed
“Behold, I made all things new."
>>Revelation 21:1,5
heaven and earth.
And JESUS confirmed
“Behold, I made all things new."
>>Revelation 21:1,5
GOD’s whole purpose
in all these shakings
in all these shakings
is to eliminate the old
and our portion
is TO REPENT
Mag-BINAG-O
so that HE can make all
things new for us
even the ONE
new heaven and earth
for us !!!!
But, we must not think of this
"new heaven and new earth"
the macrocosm of
the outer world.
- Within our individual beings
- must the pattern of the new heaven first
- --- before the new earth that follows be fulfilled in eternity!!!
YES, this is what
Paul wrote in
Paul wrote in
- >>Romans 12:2 … “be transformed by the renewing of your mind …” and
- >>Ephesians 4:23-24 … “be renewed in the essence of your mind, and put on the getting renewed self…”
Our heaven ought to be our constant focus NOW(!)
- in our minds manifesting in our thinking
- and our earth in our bodies
- articulated in THE LIFE sampled by THE CHRIST.
It takes the creative
power of GOD
power of GOD
- and our cooperation with GOD
- to realize that ONE new HEAVEN and EARTH!
And it does not come
the way many
in the denominations
in the denominations
- make us expect of GOD to give us
- that
instantway ---- they make it easy for us
- ---- of THEIR INSTANT SALVATION formula
- for their members!
WE have to work it out with
fear and trembling
fear and trembling
- (>>Philippians 2:12)
- because we are required to give up
- those we have depended on ..... all these years
- for our living
- ..... and start to tremble NOW(!)
- because we have yet to see
- (not by --- BUT) through
- THE FAITH (>>> T#003)
- --- HIS REPLACEMENT for our self-righteousness and entrepreneurships work for us
