P#194. INTRODUCTION to THE WHOLE of THE BOOK Song Of Songs


THE SONG OF SONGS



This is 
A BOOK of SCRIPTURES
MEANT FOR
EXPERIENCE
 BY CLAIMANT-LOVERS
OF THE CHRIST

  • when inter-acting with each other.
  • ideally titled
  • LOVING EXPERIENCE OF  SATISFACTION ONE AFTER ANOTHER
  • as the acknowledged true lover
  • of THE LORD JESUS THE CHRIST
  • will be lead to in this study.
  • GOD knows there is no other way

but through
the picture of

THE BELOVED-
to-HIS LOVER
kind-of-
RELATIONSHIP

that this be
better
understood
and lived by

every Christian
of our time!

  • This was originally written for that purpose by The Holy Spirit
  • using as example then King Solomon(The BELOVED)and his relationship with the Shulammite(His LOVER)
  • --- the unlikely match for a successful marriage that they were to each other.

EXCLUSIVELY for
The Jews THEN,

But GOD also
pictured HIMSELF as
THE HUSBAND to HIS
elect-wife ISRAEL

(>>Isaiah 54:5-7;
>>Jeremiah 2:2, 
>>3:1;
>>Ezekiel 16:8;
>>Hosea 2:19-20)---

and IN THIS END-TIMES!


JESUS HIMSELF
pictured
HIMSELF as
THE HUSBAND

  • and THE CHURCH as HIS(dili unta angay BRIDE
  • (>>Ephesians 5:25-27, 31-32)
  • awaiting marriage when the time for
  • >>Revelation 19:7-9, >>21:2,9 comes.
  • Just as we individually should
  • --- let all the lessons here and among others,
  • from >>Matthew 25:1-13, (>>>T#089) and
  • >>Matthew 9:10-17 (>>>T#039) and
  • Revelation Chapters 2 & 3 (>>>T#027 & >>>T#025) ---
  • be our primary concerns to prepare ourselves individually,
  • that we be there “without blemish”,
  • NGA MAANGAYAN NA UNYA (>>Ephesians 5:26-27)
  • for that marriage feast we are to prepare for
  • pending the 2nd Coming of JESUS from heaven!

As claimant-lovers of
THE LORD JESUS
THE CHRIST

we are to find ourselves
in some time
or period of time

in our living this world

the following
four (4) experiential stages

as HIS lover:


1.   Are we pursuing HIM in HIS resurrected status life for full satisfaction in our relationship after having been attracted by HIS love, after being drawn by HIM through our belief in HIS LORDSHIP & HIS CHRISTHOOD? (>>Songs 1:2 – 2:7)

2.   Are we loving HIM as one who has been called by HIM to HIMSELF to be delivered from our self  through oneness with HIM in HIS resurrected life? (>>Songs 2:8-3:5)

3.   Are we loving HIM  as living in oneness with HIM in HIS WORD as THE OVERCOMERS in Revelation Chapters 2&3? (>>Songs 3:6-5:1)

4.   Are we loving HIM by living ever strongly and consistently while waiting for that marriage ceremony for us?   (>>Song 5:2-6:3), (>>Songs 6:4-8:4), (>>Songs 8:5-7), (>>Songs 8:8-14)


{Here’s this line-by-
line attempt at making
THE SCRIPTURES herein
effectively understood
and lived!

Hereafter, it is prayed that our understanding will lead us to living the very life according to the plan and purpose which GOD HIMSELF willed this to be understood and lived.

Presented in the likeness of a song drama, for our easier understanding and actual role-playing for the balance of the days
we are to live!}

OVERCOMING

instead of LOVING

THE WORLD!


“Do not love the world, nor the things in the world.
  • If anyone loves the world, the love of The Father is not in him.
  • For all that is in the world,
  • the lust of the flesh
  • and the lust of the eyes
  • and the boastful pride of life,
  • is not from The Father, but is from the world.
  • And the world is passing away,
  • and also its lusts;
  • but the one who does the will of GOD abides forever.”
  • -------- >>1st John 2:15-17



“For this is the love of GOD,
  • that we keep HIS commandments;
  • and HIS commandments are not burdensome.
  • For whoever is born of GOD overcomes the world;
  • and this is the victory that has overcome the world
  • And who is the one who overcomes the world,
  • but he/she who believes that JESUS is THE SON of GOD?”
  • ------- >>1st John 5:3-5



“……..the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.”
  • ---- >>1st John 5:19



“This is pure and undefiled (religion) way of living in the sight of our GOD and Father,
  • [1] to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and
  • [2] to keep oneself unstained by the world.”
  • -------- >>James 1:27

The earth as since created by GOD is the place, where we are.


BUT, the world consists of us and the order or systems



under which man lived since Eve brought to earth ENTREPRENEURSHIP

as she was enticed by the devil and together with Adam sinned through:


1. the lust of the flesh
  • [the craving for sensual gratification]
  • from ENTREPRENEURSHIP,


2. the lust of the eyes
  • [the longings for imagined good & advantages]
  • from ENTREPRENEURSHIP , and


3. the pride of life
  • [security and stability in one’s resources]
  • resulting from ENTREPRENEURSHIP]
  • (>>Genesis 3:6, >>1st John 2:16).



For emphasis then,
the world is not only
around us; it includes
us --- it includes our




cravings, longings,
and even perceived
security in
our
living!




GOD created the earth
and all HE planned with it.




After that, the devil,
with our active
participation
in the name of
entrepreneurship,
brought about
the world:

  • consisting of these political, religious, financial systems and
  • their ramifications in education in arts and sciences,
  • in their applications in the business/employment/professional sectors
  • even in the highly neutral engineering, medicine, charitable service institutions, communications, transport, fashion, entertainment fields, etc…
  • which many of us NOW(!)
  • are convinced our living cannot be without them



as its author, the god of
this world has blinded
the minds of those
who do not believe in

THE LORDSHIP & THE
CHRISTHOOD of JESUS

(>>2nd Corinthians 4:4)


  • as he succeeds,
  • and in fact doing better with the passage of time,
  • at governing us jointly and severally
  • as we are embedded in this increasingly getting high-tech total systems and organizations
  • by remote control from his headquarters.


It is not any surprise then
that the world through
its wisdom


  • did not come to know GOD (>>1st Corinthians 1:21)
  • hated THE CHRIST (>>John 15:18)
  • and cannot receive The Spirit of THE TRUTH (>>John 14:17).
  • In fact, friendship with the world
  • is hostility toward GOD (>>James 4:4)
  • as its works are evil (>>John 7:7).



In the most particular sense,
JESUS after living in
this world for 33 years

declared HE has overcome
the world
(>>John 16:33)
 and that afterall,

HIS KINGDOM is certainly
not of this world

(>>John 18:36).


Among those ignorant
of GOD’s WORD

and even those who
are not as ignorant
BUT not-as-yet indwelt
by The Holy Spirit,

  • SATAN is increasingly finding it easy
  • to establish more firmly his kingdom in the world
  • by utilizing US in the world and
  • the activities and things that are in the world,
  • through the use of technologies for ENTREPRENEURSHIPS by ORGANIZATIONS
  • he brought into earth
  • after Adam and Eve succumbed to his temptation.


He is “the prince of
this world” (>>John 12:31,
>>14:30, >>16:11)

and “in the world”
(>>1st John 4:4) and ....

  • only at the very end of time
  • will he be shown
  • as having headed many people in the world
  • to that kingdom contrary to that of JESUS our LORD
  • and the many who are used by him should therefore now(!)
  • be exposed as the many antichrists that have already come
  • (>>1st John 2:18).


Truly, “the whole world
lies in the power of
the evil one”

(>>1st John 5:19).


But, GOD is uncompromising
on this particular matter ----
 “Now(!) is the judgment for
this world: now shall the prince
of this world be cast out.”
(>>John 12:31)
This is because GOD
is seeing the mind behind
all these, there is in progression
a direction contrary to HIS WILL.


HOW ABOUT YOU?
Are you not, in yourself,
going to pronounce JUDGMENT

against these order and
systems and organizations

  • by which SATAN is confining us
  • and ruling over us
  • for our lack of knowledge [>>Hosea 4:6] over these things
  • so that hereafter
  • equipped with this knowledge
  • we will increasingly put to no adverse effect;
  • that is overcome, >>>T#027
  • these order and systems and organizations of this world
  • we have been long a part of ?

JESUS
is counting on
you


to
OVERCOME
this world!
