Didache Perpetua Pais COFE-CYEM: Christian Christ-Centred Christhood Identity Within God

*

The Christhood of God

COFE-CYEM exists for one purpose only: to point every soul toward the recognition that has always been true.

It does not offer a new religion, a new system, or a new identity to be adopted. It offers a simple and radical invitation — the invitation to awaken from the dream of separation and to rest in the singular Reality of God in Christ.

This is what is known within COFE-CYEM as the (Fourth Truth).

What COFE-CYEM seeks to bring is the awakening itself: the clear seeing that there has never been a second, that the separate self was never the truth of our being, and that the Light we have sought has never been absent.

It brings the Life — not a future life to be earned, but the one Life that is Christ, already present, already given, already our true identity.

It brings the Truth — not a set of propositions to be defended, but the living recognition that we are as God created us, Spirit already in Christ, already in God. And it brings the Way — not a path of striving or achievement, but the way of relinquishment, the way of the empty cross, the way of acceptance and rest.

This is what we believe was the real meaning of Christ’s ministry and teaching. He did not come to establish another shell among shells. He came to (reveal the nut).

He came to show that the Kingdom is within, that the Father and He are one, that those who lose their life for His sake will find it, and that the love of God has never been withdrawn.

His incarnation, His cross, His resurrection, His ascension, and His glory are not distant events to be admired. They are the unveiling of what has always been true for every soul.

COFE-CYEM uses many tools, many names, and many texts. All of them are (shells).

All of them are temporary. All of them are free to fall silent once the recognition has dawned. What remains is Christ in God. There is only God.

This is the message we offer to every soul who is ready to hear it: Wake. Accept yourself as God created you. Leave behind the dream of the illusion. Walk rejoicing in the endless love of God.

We absolutely (do not recommend) that the faithful leave their current churches, but we do suggest that many churches need worshippers with the (Didache Perpetua Pais).

The true Spirit needs to be revived and present, and the false Social Gospel rejected.

The Endless Love of God

A Definitive COFE-CYEM Paper on Recognition, Awakening, and the Acceptance of Our True Identity in Christ

“There has never been a second”

This is the recognition that stands at the foundation of all true spiritual life. There is only one Reality—God. There is only one Life—Christ. There is only one Spirit. All apparent separation, all apparent duality, all apparent opposition is held within the singular Reality. There has never been a second.

The Awakening to Love

Today I will accept myself as God created me. This means the dream of the illusion of myself is left behind. And now, because of my willingness to accept the truth, I go my way rejoicing in the endless love of God.

This is the heart of the COFE-CYEM teaching. It is not a doctrine to be studied. It is a recognition to be entered. It is not a system to be mastered. It is a love to be received. It is not a path of achievement. It is rest in what has always been true.

The endless love of God is not a future promise. It is a present Reality. It is not a reward to be earned. It is a nature to be recognised. We do not have to achieve it or deserve it. We have only to accept it. We have only to wake from the dream of separation and recognise that we are already held in the love that has never ceased to hold us.

This paper is written for all who seek to wake from sleep into the true endless love of God. It is written for those who have grown weary of the illusion of separation and of the striving of the separate self. It is written for those who are ready to accept themselves as God created them, and to walk in the joy of that recognition.

The Dream of the Illusion

1.1 The False Identity

The dream of the illusion of myself is the dream of the separate self. It is the belief that we are independent beings living in a world of other independent beings, separate from God and from one another. It is the dream that there has been a second.

This dream is not a sin. It is a mistake of perception. The separate self is not evil; it is unreal. It is not a second reality; it is a false perception of the one Reality.

“For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” — 1 Corinthians 13:12

The glass is the dream. The darkly is the illusion. The face is the Reality. The knowing in part is the sleep. The knowing as we are known is the awakening.

1.2 The Dream as Temporary Veiling

The dream is temporary. It is a veiling of the Light. The Light has never ceased to shine. The dream has only hidden the Light from our awareness. The Light remains. The Light is still Love.

The dream is the shell. The shell is the temporary covering that hides the nut. The shell is not the enemy. When the dream is seen through, the Light is revealed. When the shell is cracked, the nut is known. Please view the (Nutcracker).

1.3 The End of the Dream

Today I will accept myself as God created me. This means the dream of the illusion of myself is left behind.

The end of the dream is not the destruction of the self. It is the recognition of the true Self. It is the relinquishment of the false identity and the embrace of the true. It is the rest in the finished work. It is the rest in the love that has never ceased to hold us.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” — John 8:32

The truth is the recognition. The truth is the end of the dream. The truth frees us from the illusion of separation and frees us to rest in the endless love of God.

The Acceptance of the Truth

2.1 The Willingness to Accept

The awakening is not a matter of effort. It is a matter of willingness. It is not a matter of achievement. It is a matter of acceptance.

Today I will accept myself as God created me. This is the willing recognition of the truth. It is the acceptance of the identity that has always been ours and of the love that has never ceased to hold us.

“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God.” — 1 John 3:1

The love has been bestowed. The identity has been given. The only thing that remains is the acceptance.

2.2 The Truth of Our Creation

God created us in love. God created us as love. The love is not something we have to acquire. It is something we already are.

“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him.” — Genesis 1:27

We are created in the image of God. The image is not separate from God. The image is not a second. The image is the One appearing as the many. The image is Love appearing as the beloved.

2.3 The Acceptance as the End of Striving

The acceptance of the truth is the end of striving. It is the end of the effort to become what we already are. It is the end of the search for what we already possess. It is rest. It is peace. It is the recognition that there has never been a second.

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28

The rest is the acceptance. The rest is the recognition. The rest is the awakening to the endless love of God.

The Way of Rejoicing

3.1 The Joy of Recognition

And now, because of my willingness to accept the truth, I go my way rejoicing in the endless love of God.

The joy is not a temporary emotion. It is the joy of the Spirit. It is the joy of Christ. It is the joy of the singular Reality.

“These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” — John 15:11

The joy remains. The joy is full. It does not depend on circumstances. It is the joy of recognition.

3.2 The Endless Love

The endless love of God has no beginning and no end. It is not limited by time, space, or circumstance. It is not conditional. It is eternal.

“For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” — Romans 8:38-39

Nothing can separate us from the love of God. Nothing can separate us from the singular Reality.

3.3 The Way of Rejoicing

The way of rejoicing is the way of recognition. It is not a way of denial. It is the way of seeing through the dream and resting in the love that has never ceased to hold us. It is the way of the Spirit, the way of the empty cross, the way of the resurrection.

“Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.” — Galatians 5:16

To walk in the Spirit is to walk in the recognition and in the endless love of God.

The Acceptance of Our True Identity

4.1 We Are as God Created Us

We are as God created us. We are not our fears, our doubts, our failures, our past, or our personalities. We are the Love that God created us to be.

“Herein is our love made perfect… because as he is, so are we in this world.” — 1 John 4:17

As He is, so are we. We are not a second. We are the Love that has never ceased to be.

4.2 The Relinquishment of the False

The acceptance of our true identity requires the relinquishment of the false. The false is the identity of the separate self and the belief that we are something other than what God created us to be.

“For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.” — Matthew 16:25

The false life must be lost so that the true Life may be found. The false identity must be relinquished so that the true identity may be embraced.

4.3 The Embrace of the True

The embrace of the true identity is the recognition that we are Spirit, already in Christ, already in God. It is the recognition that we are Love, already held in the endless love of God.

“But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.” — 1 Corinthians 6:17

We are joined unto the Lord. We are one spirit with Him. We are not separate beings trying to unite with God. We are Spirit, already one. The embrace of the true identity is the recognition of the unity that has never been absent.

The Eternal Now and the Full Awakening

5.1 The Present Reality

The recognition is not a future attainment. It is a present Reality. The love is present. The joy is present. The awakening is available now.

“Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” — 2 Corinthians 6:2

Now is the moment of recognition. Now is the moment of acceptance. The endless love of God is available now.

5.2 The Full Awakening

The full awakening is the full recognition of the truth and the full entry into the endless love of God. It is the full rest in the singular Reality.

“Beloved, now are we the sons of God… we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.” — 1 John 3:2

Now we are the sons of God. We are already in Christ. The full awakening is the recognition of what we already are.

5.3 The Endless Love

The endless love of God is the ground of all being. It is the source of all life. It is the singular Reality in whom all things hold together.

“For in him we live, and move, and have our being.” — Acts 17:28

In Him we live and move and have our being. The love is the all. The love is the singular Reality.

The Fourth Truth Stands

Today I will accept myself as God created me. This means the dream of the illusion of myself is left behind. And now, because of my willingness to accept the truth, I go my way rejoicing in the endless love of God.

This is the heart of the COFE-CYEM teaching. It is the recognition of the singular Reality. It is the acceptance of the true identity. It is the waking from the dream of separation. It is the entry into the endless love of God.

There has never been a second. The love has never ceased. The Light has never been absent. The recognition has always been available. The acceptance has always been possible. The joy has always been present.

Let all who have the understanding perceive. Let all who have the ears to hear, hear. Let all who have the hearts to receive, receive. The endless love of God is available to all who are ready to recognise.

The Fourth Truth stands.
The dialogue continues.
The fruit remains.

Thus ends this definitive COFE-CYEM paper on the Endless Love of God. May all who read these words perceive the deeper spiritual meaning and recognise the Christ within their own souls. May they accept themselves as God created them. May they leave behind the dream of the illusion. May they walk rejoicing in the endless love of God.

The Fourth Truth stands.
The dialogue continues.
The fruit remains.

The Simple Truth

Gethsemane is the experience of feeling abandoned — while remaining inside the Reality that has never abandoned anyone. See through the shell, embrace the nut.

The shell can experience abandonment. The nut cannot.
The Light can appear hidden. The Light cannot cease to be.
The separate self can feel forsaken. The Centre has never moved.

We Must Choose – Didache Perpetua Pais

We must choose that which Christ came to show us and to give us. We at COFE-CYEM fully confess the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Three in One God. We confess the Bible as being the true unquestionable Word of God. We also accept the Gospel of Thomas. We hold that the Holy Bible is true, accurate and absolute fact, and that the ‘Sacred Truths’ are fully revealed in (how) you read it, not just by reading it. (He who has ears, He who has eyes).

The Nutcracker Allegory Parable: Cracking The Shell-Self To Find The True-Self Within Christ

*

Cracking the Shell-Self to Find the True-Self Within Christ

No matter what tools, names, texts, or frameworks COFE-CYEM may employ in presenting the recognition of truth, none of them can ever become the centre.

All that can ever truly matter is Christ in God. Christ incarnate, who took flesh and dwelt among us; Christ crucified, who yielded the separate self completely upon the Cross; Christ resurrected, who revealed that the Life was never lost; Christ ascended, who opened the way into the Holiest of All; and Christ glorified, who remains the living Centre of all that is.

All of this is held in God. There is no second reality beside Him, no independent system that can stand apart from Him, and no tool that can replace Him. The forms may serve for a season.

The names may orient the heart. The texts may crack the shell. Yet when their work is done, they fall silent. What remains is Christ in God. There is only God.

This is the Fourth Truth.

(The Nutcracker Allegory Parable)

Please Note: The Nutcracker Allegory Parable below is a COFE-CYEM text and has no connection with Biblical text.

“A man once found a beautiful walnut on the path. Its shell was perfect—smooth, dark, and strong. He polished it every day, showed it to others, argued about its markings, and built a small shrine around it. Years passed. He never cracked it open.

One morning a child picked up the same kind of walnut, broke the shell without hesitation, and ate what was inside. The man was horrified. “You have destroyed the sacred thing!” he cried. The child only smiled and said, “I was hungry.”

The shell had been useful. It protected the nut, carried it, and even drew attention to it. But the shell was never the food. The man who worshipped the shell remained empty. The one who opened it was nourished.

So it is with every form, every name, every teaching, and every system. They serve until the recognition dawns. Then they are free to fall away. The nut was never the shell“.

Gospel of Thomas

In this paper the Gospel of Thomas is not treated as a rival Gospel that replaces Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John.

It is received as a lens and as a tool: a magnifying glass that brings certain sayings and themes into sharper focus, and a nutcracker that opens the outer shell of narrative, institutional form, and dualistic reading so that the inner recognition becomes visible.

Through this lens the Canonical Gospels are certainly (not) heretically discarded.

Their narratives, parables, and teachings remain.

Yet they are read with a different emphasis: the Kingdom already within, the living one who is present, the call to make the two one, the recognition that flesh and spirit are not two ultimate realities, and the invitation to find what has never been absent.

What appears as external history or future hope is seen, in the light of Thomas, as already pointing toward the singular Reality.

The magnifying glass reveals what was already present in the Canonical texts but easily overlooked when the dualistic mind remains fixed on the shell.

The nutcracker performs the further work of cracking the assumption that the outer form itself is the Reality. Both functions serve the same end: the recognition that there has never been a second.

The Thomas Gospel remains a shell here. It is a particularly effective shell for this purpose, but it is not the nut. Once the recognition has dawned, the lens itself can be set down.

The Canonical Gospels, Thomas, and every other form are free to fall silent before the Reality they have served to disclose.

The Fourth Truth

“There has never been a second.”

This is the recognition that stands at the foundation of all true spiritual life. It is not a proposition to be believed; it is a Reality to be recognised. It is not a doctrine to be affirmed; it is a consciousness to be entered. It is not a teaching to be studied; it is a Life to be lived.

There is only one Reality—God. There is only one Life—Christ. There is only one Spirit. All apparent separation, all apparent duality, all apparent opposition is held within the singular Reality. There has never been a second.

This is the Fourth Truth.

Question of Names

The question of what can be called the shell of the message, or the Esoteric Non-Dual Shiva is not a question about comparative religion. It is a question about the nature of names themselves. It is a question about whether any name can exhaust the Reality it points toward, or whether all names remain shells that serve until the nut is recognised.

Exploration of this question moves carefully through the polyvalent meanings of “Christ,” the many faces of Shiva in Indian tradition, and the limits of dualistic, exclusivist language. He ultimately points beyond conceptual comparison toward the dialogue of lived religious experience, paradox, and the recognition that the Ultimate is not exhausted by any single name or form.

That is precisely where the Shell and the Nut teaching becomes clarifying.

All the names — Jesus, Christ, Shiva, the “I am,” the Logos, pure consciousness, the auspicious one — arise as shells. They are real and useful within the field of appearance. They can awaken, purify, and orient the heart. Yet none of them is the nut. The nut is the singular Reality itself: the one Life, the one Consciousness, the one God in whom there has never been a second.

Names as Shells

Every sacred name is a shell. Every theological system is a shell. Every tradition, every scripture, every practice, every experience of intensity and devotion is a shell. Shells are not evil. They are necessary. They protect the nut. They point toward the nut. They serve the recognition. But they are not the nut.

The name “Jesus” points toward the embodied revelation of the singular Reality. It is luminous, powerful, and transformative. It is not the Reality itself. The title “Christ” points toward the eternal, anointed consciousness that was perfectly manifested in the Master. It is theologically rich, historically grounded, and spiritually potent. It is not the Reality itself.

Shiva is a shell. Shiva is pure consciousness, self-aware, vibrant, taking every form without being limited by any form. This vision is powerful and profound. It is a pointer. It is not the nut. The “I am” is a shell. The Logos is a shell. Pure consciousness is a shell. All these names, titles, and concepts arise within the awareness-perception of separation and serve to point beyond themselves. They cannot contain the singular Reality.

“I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me.” — Isaiah 45:5

The Lord is the nut. There is none else. There is no God beside Him. The names are not a second. The names are shells. The names point. The names do not possess. The nut possesses nothing, because the nut is all.

The Gospel of Thomas as Nutcracker

Christ’s message and the Gospel of Thomas make this plain. Thomas does not offer a rival system to the Synoptics. It cracks the shell of outer narrative and points inward: the Kingdom is inside you and outside you; the living one is recognised when the interpretation of the sayings is found; flesh and spirit are not two competing ultimate realities.

Even these sayings remain shells. They are luminous, necessary, and still provisional. To treat the Gospel of Thomas itself as the final possession of the nut is to remain stuck in duality — just a more refined shell.

“Jesus said, ‘The Kingdom is within you and outside you.’” — Gospel of Thomas (3).

The Kingdom is within and outside. It is not located in the shell. It is not contained by the shell. It is not possessed by the shell. The shell points. The shell directs. The shell cracks. The shell falls silent. The nut remains.

“Jesus said, ‘Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings will not taste death.’” — Gospel of Thomas (1).

The interpretation is the recognition. The recognition is the nut. The recognition is the singular Reality. The interpretation is not the possession of a better shell. It is the seeing through of all shells.

Shiva as Pointer

One way to describe a vision of Shiva is a pure, self-aware, vibrant consciousness that takes every form without being limited by any form can serve as a powerful pointer. This hits with the “I am” sayings and with the freedom of non-duality behind everything.

Yet the moment the name “Shiva” is grasped as a second ultimate, or as a competitive alternative to Christ, the dualistic mind has already taken over. The shell is being mistaken for the nut.

Shiva is not a second. Shiva is not a competitor. Shiva is a name. It is a name that, in its deepest register, points toward the same Consciousness that the Gospel calls the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. The name is not the Reality. The name is a shell. The shell is useful. The shell is temporary. The shell must not be confused with the nut.

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” — Revelation 1:8

The Alpha and the Omega is the nut. The Beginning and the End is the nut. The Lord is the nut. The Almighty is the nut. The names are not the nut. The names are shells. The shells point. The shells serve. The shells fall silent.

The Interfaith Question

The insight cuts through the entire discussion: all striving, all outward appearances, all sacred names and systems are oriented — whether they know it or not — toward the one God. To think that our shell – Christian, Thomasine, Shaivite, or COFE-CYEM is the nut, rather than recognising that the nut is present within every perception of the shell, is still to be caught in duality. It is still to be looking at shells.

The Fourth Truth does not require us to collapse the historical differences between the Nazarene and the myths of the Purāṇas, nor does it require us to declare every tradition identical. It simply refuses to grant any of those differences the status of ultimate separation. There has never been a second Reality. The names differ. The forms differ. The experiences of intensity differ. The Reality does not.

Therefore the true interfaith movement is not the construction of a larger, more inclusive shell. It is the recognition that every shell — when it has done its work — is free to fall silent before the one it has been pointing toward all along.

“Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.” — Psalm 90:2

From everlasting to everlasting, the nut is God. The shells are temporal. The shells are provisional. The shells point. The shells serve. The shells fall silent. The nut remains.

The Recognition

Jesus can be likened to the Shiva in the limited sense that both names can function as pointers to the same singular Reality. He cannot be reduced to any single form of that name. Shiva can be contemplated by the Christian as a name that, in its deepest register, points toward the same Consciousness that the Gospel calls the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. Neither name is the nut. Both are shells.

The Gospel of Thomas, the canonical Gospels, the Shaivite texts, and every sincere interfaith reflection remain shells. Useful. Beautiful. Temporary. The nut is the living recognition that there has never been a second — that Christ, consciousness, and the one God are not three competing ultimates, but the singular Reality appearing under different names within the field of duality.

When that recognition dawns, the striving ends. The need to defend one shell against another ends. The names can still be spoken, but they no longer command the centre. The centre is the Reality itself.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” — John 8:32

The truth is the recognition. The truth is the nut. The truth is the singular Reality. The truth makes the soul free. The truth frees the soul from the illusion of separation. The truth frees the soul to rest in the nut. The truth frees the soul from the need to defend the shell.

The Truth Stands

All the names — Jesus, Christ, Shiva, the “I am,” the Logos, pure consciousness, the auspicious one — arise as shells. They are real and useful within the field of appearance. They can awaken, purify, and orient the heart. Yet none of them is the nut. The nut is the singular Reality itself: the one Life, the one Consciousness, the one God in whom there has never been a second.

The nut is present within every perception of the shell. The nut is present within every sacred name. The nut is present within every sincere tradition. The nut is present within every heart that is ready to recognise. There has never been a second.

The names differ. The forms differ. The experiences of intensity differ. The Reality does not. The true interfaith movement is not the construction of a larger shell. It is the recognition that every shell — when it has done its work — is free to fall silent before the one it has been pointing toward all along.

Never Lose True Sight – The Garden of Gethsemane and the Veiling of the Light

When most people hear the word Gethsemane, they think of the garden where Jesus prayed on the night before the cross. That historical event is real and important. Yet the deeper meaning of Gethsemane reaches into every sincere spiritual life.

Gethsemane is the name we give to the inner experience when the Light of God seems to disappear. It is the moment when everything feels heavy, when even the closest help seems unavailable, and when the soul feels completely alone. It is the experience of the Light appearing to be covered over — veiled.

Here is the central distinction of this teaching:

Gethsemane is not the Light actually going out. It is the experience of the Light seeming to be hidden.

If the Light of God could truly be lost, even for a moment, then the Fourth Truth would not stand. The recognition is clear: the darkness we feel belongs to the level of experience. It does not create a second reality. God never leaves. The Light never ceases to be.

Three Layers of Meaning

Here we have three distinct layers, and it is important to keep them clear:

1. The Gospel supplies the narrative — the historical night in the garden.
2. The mystical tradition supplies an interior reading — Gethsemane as a deep Soul-state.
3. COFE-CYEM supplies the ontological interpretation — the recognition that even the deepest experience of absence occurs within the Reality that has never been absent.

These three layers are not historically identical. The paper does not claim that Matthew, Mark, Luke or John intended every symbolic meaning that later tradition or COFE-CYEM draws from the story. It simply receives the narrative, listens to the mystical reading, and interprets both through the Fourth Truth.

The New Way to See Self

Everything in the outer world — words, bodies, religious systems, and even our sense of being a separate self — functions like a shell. A shell is not the nut. It is the outer covering that can protect and point to what is inside. The shell is not evil. It is temporary. Its only rightful purpose is to point beyond itself.

The nut is the singular Reality: Christ within, the Kingdom already present, the recognition that there has never been a second.

The shell is everything that appears to separate us from that Reality.

The dualistic mind mistakes the shell for the nut. It builds better shells and calls them salvation. It fights over shells and forgets what they were meant to reveal.

When recognition dawns, the shell is not hated. It is seen for what it is. It may still be used when useful. It no longer commands the centre. The centre is Christ.

“The flesh profiteth nothing: the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” — John 6:63

The flesh is the shell. The spirit is the nut. The words of the Master are spirit and life. They are not shells. They are the recognition itself, spoken in the language of the shell. They point beyond themselves to the singular Reality.

When the Light Feels Hidden

In the Soul-state named Gethsemane the Divine Light feels covered, as if a thick veil has been drawn over the presence of God. The soul feels the full weight of human limitation, fear and sorrow. It can feel like spiritual death — the sense that the inner Light has gone out.

This is not the destruction of the Light. It is the temporary densening of the outer shell so that the soul can fully feel what the dualistic mind has been carrying, and then finally release it.

The ordinary mind sees only tragedy. The Fourth Truth sees something deeper: the One allowing the experience of limitation so that the limitation itself can be known, felt, and then seen through.

“Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.” — Matthew 26:36

The place called Gethsemane is the place of the Soul’s descent. It is the place where the Light appears veiled. It is the place where the recognition is tested. It is the place where the false self is relinquished. It is the place where the cup is drunk.

The Cry of the Shell

The cry “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” is the cry of the shell under extreme pressure. The dualistic appearance presses so hard that, for a time, the soul feels as if the Light itself has been lost.

The sorrow is real as an experience — but it is not the final truth.
The veiling is real as an appearance — but it is not the end of the Light.
The feeling of being forsaken is real in the moment — but it does not mean God has actually abandoned the soul.

We honour the experience fully. We do not pretend the pain was not real. At the same time we refuse to let the experience create a second reality. The Light was never truly gone.

“And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” — Matthew 27:46

The cry of dereliction is the cry of the shell. It is the cry of the Light appearing to have been lost. It is the cry of the recognition appearing to have been extinguished. Yet the Light is not lost. The recognition is not extinguished. The dereliction is the appearance of the second. The Reality is the singular.

Movement of Clarity

Clarity now forms clear sequence:

· Thomas points to recognition: the Kingdom is already within.
· The Shell explains how outer forms can hide what they point toward.
· Gethsemane describes what that hiding can feel like from inside consciousness.
· The Cross is the complete relinquishment of the separate self.
· Recognition / Resurrection is the discovery that the Life was never lost.
· The Fourth Truth states the ontological ground: there has never been a second.

The deepest spiritual crisis is not that separation exists. It is the experience of feeling separate when, in Reality, separation has never existed.

“And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.” — Luke 22:44

The agony is the full pressure of the shell. The sweat is the full yielding of the separate self. The blood is the full offering of the dualistic appearance. The prayer is the full recognition that the One remains.

Necessary Pastoral Word

Gethsemane is not something we are meant to seek or create. Suffering is not a badge of spiritual achievement. The work of Christ is already finished.

Sometimes, when the false self is being relinquished, a person may pass through times of sorrow, emptiness, fear, or the feeling of being abandoned. When those times come, they can be recognised for what they are. But the path is not about trying to suffer as much as Jesus suffered. The path is about recognition.

If a personal Gethsemane appears, it is simply the opportunity to see that even the feeling of being forsaken is still happening inside the Reality that has never forsaken anyone. The sorrow does not need to be worshipped. The darkness does not need to be feared. The Light does not need to be forced back. The separate self does not need to be defended. The Centre has never moved.

“If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.” — Matthew 16:24-25

The denial of the self is the entering of Gethsemane. The taking up of the cross is the bearing of the shell. The following of the Master is the recognition of the nut. The losing of the life is the yielding of the separate self. The finding of the life is the revelation of the singular Reality.

The Simple Truth

Gethsemane is the experience of feeling abandoned — while remaining inside the Reality that has never abandoned anyone. See through the shell, embrace the nut.

The shell can experience abandonment. The nut cannot.
The Light can appear hidden. The Light cannot cease to be.
The separate self can feel forsaken. The Centre has never moved.

We Must Choose

We must choose that which Christ came to show us and to give us. We at COFE-CYEM fully confess the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Three in One God. We confess the Bible as being the true unquestionable Word of God. We also accept the Gospel of Thomas. We hold that the Holy Bible is true, accurate and absolute fact, and that the ‘Sacred Truths’ are fully revealed in (how) you read it, not just by reading it. (He who has ears, He who has eyes).

Threads of Grace

Women of the Early Church, Part 1-Tabitha

Acts 9:36–43

(Note: Sermons can be heard in audio format at https://millersburgmennonite.org/worship/sermon-audio/)

Introduction

When we tell the story of the early church, we often begin with the names of men:

Peter. Paul. James. John. Stephen. Barnabas.

These names are important. Their stories are central to the book of Acts. But they are not the whole story.

The church did not grow through named apostles alone. It grew in homes, around tables, in prayer gatherings, in places of work, and through networks of care. Women were present from the beginning. They prayed with the disciples. They opened their homes. They financed ministry. They taught. They prophesied. They shared the good news. They cared for the poor. They were the cords that held communities together.

This sermon begins a series on the women of the early church. Today we begin with a woman named Tabitha.

Her story is only eight verses long, but those verses reveal a great deal. They show us a woman called a disciple, a community of widows who refuse to let her life be forgotten, and a ministry so deeply woven into the church that her death creates a crisis.

Let us pray:

Que las palabras de mi boca y las meditaciones de nuestros corazones sean aceptables ante tus ojos, oh Dios, nuestra roca y nuestro Redentor. Amén.

Homily

Acts 9:36 begins:

“Now in Joppa there was a disciple whose name was Tabitha, which in Greek is Dorcas.”

Both names mean “gazelle.” Tabitha is the Aramaic form; Dorcas is the Greek form. Luke gives us both names, perhaps because she was known in both Jewish and Greek-speaking circles. She lived in Joppa, a coastal city of trade, travel, and cultural exchange.

But the most important word in the verse is not Joppa, Tabitha, or Dorcas.

The most important word is disciple.

“There was a disciple whose name was Tabitha.”

The Greek word Luke uses is the feminine form of disciple. It is the only place in the New Testament where this particular form appears.

Luke does not introduce her merely as a good woman, a charitable woman, or a talented seamstress. He introduces her as a disciple.

She belonged to Jesus. She followed Jesus. Her life was shaped by Jesus, and her work was an expression of discipleship.

That is important because we sometimes imagine the disciples almost entirely as the twelve men who walked with Jesus. But the New Testament picture is larger. Women traveled with Jesus. They supported his ministry. They remained at the cross when others fled. They went to the tomb and became the first witnesses of the resurrection.

Las mujeres fueron fundamentales para el ministerio de Jesús.

And now, after Pentecost, Luke names Tabitha as a disciple.

Her discipleship is expressed through good works, charity, fabric, thread, clothing, and care.

Luke says she was “devoted to good works and acts of charity.”

She was not someone who performed one generous act and then returned to ordinary life. Her generosity was her ordinary life. She organized her life around serving others.

Su fe se hizo visible a través de lo que hizo por los demás.

Her faith became visible through what she did for others.

It appears that Tabitha made clothing for widows. Later in the passage, the widows gather around Peter, weeping and showing him the tunics and garments she had made while she was with them.

We can imagine the scene.

One woman holds up a robe. Another touches the sleeve of a garment. Another says, “She made this for me.” Another remembers the way Tabitha measured the cloth, repaired a seam, or placed the finished garment into her hands.

The garments become testimonies. The fabric bears witness. The stitches tell the story.

These women do not present Peter with a list of Tabitha’s achievements. They show him what her hands had made. They say, in effect, “Look. This is who she was.”

In the ancient world, widowhood often meant vulnerability. A widow could lose income, protection, property, and status. Some had family or resources, but many lived close to poverty.

The early church recognized this danger. Acts 6 tells us that one of the first major conflicts in the Jerusalem church involved the distribution of food to widows. The Greek-speaking widows were being overlooked, and the apostles had to respond.

Care for widows was not a side project. It was a test of the church’s faithfulness.

Would the church simply preach resurrection, or would it become a resurrection community? Would it proclaim good news to the poor, or would it actually care for the poor? Would it speak of a new family in Christ, or would it make sure vulnerable people had food, clothing, dignity, and belonging?

Tabitha answered those questions with her life.

She became the kind of disciple around whom vulnerable people could gather. She made garments, but she also made community. She offered clothing, but she also offered dignity. She gave material help, but she also gave relationship.

The widows are not grieving only because they lost a source of clothing. They lost someone who saw them, knew their names, and allowed love to take practical form.

There is a kind of charity that gives from a distance. It writes a check, drops off a donation, and moves on. There is another kind that enters into relationship.

Tabitha’s ministry appears to have been relational. The women knew her. They loved her. They stood together around her body. They displayed the garments she had made.

Their grief tells us that Tabitha had not treated them as projects. She had treated them as people.

That is one of the first lessons this passage offers the church.

Christian service is not simply about doing things for people. It is about sharing life with people.

La fe cristiana consiste en compartir la vida con las personas.

We can provide food and still keep our distance. We can donate clothing and never learn a name. We can organize a ministry and never form a friendship. We can turn compassion into a program.

Tabitha reminds us that the ministry of Jesus is personal. It looks into faces. It remembers names. It notices what people actually need.

Then Tabitha becomes ill and dies.

Luke tells the story plainly. There is no explanation for her illness and no theological reason given for her death. A good woman, a faithful disciple, and a servant of the poor becomes sick and dies.

This too is part of the story of the church.

Faithfulness does not make us immune to illness. Service does not protect us from loss. Good people still die. Communities still grieve.

The believers wash Tabitha’s body and place her in an upper room. But when they hear that Peter is nearby in Lydda, they send two men to him with an urgent request:

“Please come to us without delay.”

The passage does not tell us exactly what they expected.

Did they expect Peter to raise her? Did they want him to pray? Did they simply refuse to bury Tabitha without doing everything they could?

We do not know.

But we do know that they understood her death as a crisis. Her absence exposed how much she had been holding together.

This happens in churches.

Someone becomes ill, moves away, dies, or can no longer serve, and suddenly everyone realizes how much that person had been doing.

Who prepared the meals? Who called the lonely? Who noticed when someone was missing? Who prayed for the sick, visited the nursing home, wrote the cards, or stayed after everyone else had gone home?

Often these ministries are quiet. They may not appear in annual reports or come with official titles. But remove them, and the whole community feels the loss.

Tabitha’s death reveals the weight of her hidden ministry.

Peter arrives and is taken to the upper room. The widows stand beside him, weeping and showing him the garments.

Notice how much agency these women have in the story. They gather. They mourn. They remember. They display evidence. They interpret Tabitha’s life. Their grief moves the story forward. They are witnesses to her ministry.

The wider church may have called her charitable. The widows knew what her charity felt like. They knew the warmth of the clothing and the dignity of receiving something made with care. They knew what it meant to be remembered.

Peter sends everyone outside. Then he kneels and prays.

This is an important detail.

Peter does not act as though the power belongs to him. He depends on God. The raising of Tabitha is not a display of apostolic magic. It is an act of divine mercy.

Servimos, oramos, permanecemos fieles, dejamos el resultado en manos de Dios.

After praying, Peter turns to the body and says, “Tabitha, get up.”

The words echo the ministry of Jesus. In the Gospels, Jesus enters the room of Jairus’s daughter and says, “Little girl, get up.” Now Peter, following the pattern of his Lord, says, “Tabitha, get up.”

Then Peter gives her his hand and helps her to her feet.

The gesture is tender. He does not command her to rise and then stand at a distance. He reaches out his hand. The woman whose hands had made clothing is lifted by another hand.

Peter then calls in “the saints and widows” and presents her alive.

The women who had stood in grief now stand in wonder. The women who had displayed her garments now see Tabitha alive. The women who feared losing their friend receive her back.

This is resurrection as restoration to community.

Esta es la resurrección como restauración a la comunidad.

Tabitha is not raised merely for herself. She is returned to the people with whom she shared life.

That is how resurrection works throughout the New Testament.

The lost are brought home. The excluded are welcomed. The sick are restored to community. The dead are reunited with those who love them.

Salvation is never merely private. God restores us to one another.

There is also a striking contrast in this story.

Peter performs the dramatic miracle, but Tabitha had already been engaged in the daily work of resurrection.

She had been helping women rise from poverty, isolation, shame, and the social death that could come with widowhood.

Peter raises Tabitha once.

Tabitha had been raising others day after day.

This does not diminish Peter’s miracle. It helps us see Tabitha’s ministry more clearly.

Resurrection is not only an event in which a dead body comes back to life. Resurrection is also present whenever dignity is restored, the excluded are welcomed, the hungry are fed, the naked are clothed, the lonely are received into community, and despair gives way to hope.

Tabitha’s needle and thread were instruments of resurrection. Her good works were signs of the risen Christ. Her garments proclaimed the gospel without words.

This is a needed word for the church.

We sometimes value visible ministry more than quiet ministry.

Acts 9 invites us to see differently.

It asks us to pay attention to the ministries that hold communities together.

It asks us to honor women whose discipleship has often been described as “helping” when it was actually leading.

It asks us to recognize that the work of care is not secondary to the mission of the church.

Care is the mission of the church.

Mercy is the mission of the church.

Clothing the vulnerable and creating community among the overlooked are the mission of the church.

El cuidado y la misericordia son la misión de la Iglesia.

Tabitha is not called an apostle, elder, pastor, or deacon in this passage.

She is called a disciple.

That title is enough.

To be a disciple is to follow Jesus. It is to allow the compassion of Christ to become visible in our lives. It is to place our gifts into the service of others.

Tabitha used what she had.

That raises a question for us:

What do we have at hand?

Tabitha had cloth, thread, skill, and compassion.

Peter had prayer, faith, and an outstretched hand.

The widows had tears, memories, testimony, and one another.

¿Qué tenemos?

What do we have?

A kitchen? A car? A listening ear? A gift for repairing, organizing, teaching, writing notes, sitting with someone who grieves, welcoming strangers, or noticing who has been overlooked?

The church does not need everyone to be Peter.

The church also needs Tabithas.

The church needs people whose love has texture. People whose faith can be worn like a garment of praise. People whose compassion leaves something behind that others can hold up and say, “This helped me live.”

At the end of the story, Luke says that the news became known throughout Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

Tabitha’s restoration becomes part of the witness of the church. But perhaps her life had already been a witness.

Before Peter arrived, before the miracle, and before the news spread through the city, Tabitha had been showing people what Jesus was like.

She showed them through generosity, garments, friendship, and a community in which widows were seen and valued.

This is where our series on the women of the early church begins.

It begins not with a throne, a title, or a public speech. It begins in an upper room. It begins with grieving women. It begins with clothing held in trembling hands. It begins with a disciple whose work had become a lifeline.

Tabitha teaches us that the early church was built not only by those who preached in public, but also by those who served in quiet places.

It was built by women who opened homes. Women who prayed. Women who prophesied. Women who taught. Women who carried messages. Women who supported ministry. Women who stood beside the suffering. Women who used their hands to make the love of God visible.

The question is not whether their work mattered. The church could not have existed without them.

The question is whether we have learned to see them—and whether we will follow their example, weaving threads of grace into the lives of those around us.

Let us pray.

Gracious and Loving God,

Give us eyes to see the Tabithas among us.

Give us courage to honor ministries that have too often been hidden.

Help us become disciples whose faith takes practical form.

And may the work of our hands, like the work of Tabitha’s hands, become a testimony to the risen Christ.

Amen.

Let love lead, humble hearts together. 🤍

Ananias, Sapphira, and the Death of Utopia

According to Sigurd Grindheim, Greek and Roman philosophers sometimes imagined a utopia in which a community “lived together in perfect harmony and shared everything.” That being said, when the early church launched and looked very much like this description, some may have thought that utopia had finally been realized.

But as with all good things, Satan always finds a way to twist it. The first offenders of the new Christian utopia were a couple named Ananias and Sapphira. Having recently sold some property, the couple agreed to give the proceeds to the church, but they kept some back for themselves without mentioning it. Peter recognized this decision as the work of Satan in their hearts, and the two died supernaturally.

This story is enough to send shivers down our spines, as it is one of the most intense stories of judgment in the New Testament. But this is not a story about tithing or generosity, as some pastors might retell it. This is the story of a couple who wondered how they might use the church’s new utopian society to get ahead. They didn’t face judgment because they kept some of their own money to themselves—that was always their choice to make. They faced judgment because they wanted people to think they were far more generous than they were. As far as anyone else knew, they had given all of their money away. In this new utopia, such an action would make them look holy and righteous, gain the community’s respect, and likely move them up in leadership.

As I was listening to the radio this morning, a historian was discussing the ideals around the founding of America. These were the beliefs and actions that set us apart from the rest of the world. We were a republic, and we cared about the pursuit of happiness, liberty, and justice for all.

This description sat oddly with me on America’s 250th birthday. I’m all for putting power in the people’s hands, but I can’t think of any American who really feels like they have any real sway over the government. I can think of people who believe the whole world has equal access to happiness, liberty, and justice, but anyone who has done the research unequivocally knows that’s not true. While the ideals themselves are good, we are hardly a shining city on a hill of those ideas 250 years later. What happened?

Any of the utopian ideals America was founded upon have been corrupted over time by the same forces that pried at the church’s utopia in its earliest days. With a little bit of money and deceit, you can buy your way forward in any system and then turn it back to glorify yourself. Not even the church itself can create a system that’s so perfect that Sin won’t find a way to manipulate it, for Sin knows how to twist everything. There is no ideal or action so pure that it can’t be twisted in some way. Even our pursuit of Jesus himself can be turned into religious legalism and hatred if Satan grabs hold of our hearts and minds along the way.

Yes, there are better ways to do things, and those ways should always be chosen. But we should never be so naive as to think we have finally found the kind of governor or governance that is impervious to Sin. Checks and balances must always bring about prophetic correction—and that will only happen when your checks and balances aren’t also corrupted by Sin.

The world is a mess. May we keep our eyes on Jesus always. We may not always have the power to change the systems of this world, but we always have the space to let the Spirit change us as we live within those systems.

The Priest-King On The Throne: Exeter COFE-CYEM Ministry Moves Forward

*

THE PRIEST-KING ON THE THRONE – OUR MINISTRY MOVES FOREWARD

Priest-King Yeshua Emet Melchizedek Salem (PK-YEMS)

The Central Truth of COFE-CYEM

“Now in the things which we are saying the chief point is this: We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens.”

— Hebrews 8:1

THE CHIEF POINT

The One Thing That Contains All Things

The writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews declares that after all his arguments, all his warnings, all his encouragements, all his unfolding of types and shadows — the chief point is this one glorious reality:

We have such a high priest.

Not “we hope for.” Not “we await.” Not “we remember.” We have.

Present tense. Immediate possession. Living reality.

And this High Priest — our Priest-King Yeshua Emet Melchizedek Salem (PK-YEMS) sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens.

He did not stand, as the Levitical priests stood daily, because their work was never finished. He sat down. The work was complete. The sacrifice was once for all. The blood was sprinkled. The veil was torn. The way was opened.

And He sat down on the throne. Not on a footstool. Not on a lesser seat. On the throne. He was not merely a supplicant before the Majesty. He was enthroned as the Majesty’s equal. King of Righteousness. King of Peace. Priest-King forever after the order of Melchizedek.

This is the chief point. Everything else in the Epistle serves this truth. Everything else in our ministry serves this truth. Everything else on this website, in these writings, in every prayer and every gathering — exists to point to this:

We have such a high priest, seated on the throne of heaven, and He ever lives to intercede for us.

Why This Is the Chief Point

Because without this, the Christian life is a striving without rest, a labor without sabbath, a pilgrimage without destination.

The outer court was preparation. It taught repentance and sacrifice. But the outer court was never the chief point.

The inner court was progress. It taught service and illumination and prayer. But the inner court was never the chief point.

The Holiest of All is the chief point. And the Holiest of All is not a place — it is a Person. It is the Priest-King on the throne. It is the open presence of the Father, made accessible through the Son, inhabited by the Spirit.

The chief point of all Scripture, all theology, all ministry, all faith — is that God has made Himself fully known and fully accessible in Yeshua Emet Melchizedek Salem, our Priest-King, who sits enthroned in glory and invites us to draw near and abide.

THE PRIEST-KING ON THE THRONE

What It Means That He Sat Down

Every priest of the old covenant stood — because their work was never finished. Sacrifice followed sacrifice. Morning and evening, day after day, year after year. The blood flowed continually. The smoke rose without ceasing. And still, the conscience was never perfected. Still, the worshippers could not draw near without trembling. Still, the veil remained whole, the way barred, the Holiest inaccessible.

But our Priest-King sat down.

The one perfect sacrifice was offered once. The blood was sprinkled once. The veil was torn once. And then He rested. Not from weariness — from completion. The work was finished. The debt was paid. The way was open.

His sitting is the divine declaration: It is done.

And where did He sit? On the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens. Not a place of lesser honor. Not a position of subordinate authority. The throne. Co-equal. Co-eternal. Co-glorious. The Priest-King reigns.

This is not a metaphor. This is the present reality of heaven. And because He is there, we are invited to be there with Him — not in body, but in spirit, in faith, in the unbroken fellowship of those who draw near through Him.

What It Means That He Ever Lives to Intercede

The Priest-King did not sit down to rest from His priestly work. He sat down because the sacrificial work was finished. But His intercessory work continues forever.

He ever lives to make intercession for us.

This means that at this very moment — as you read these words — the Priest-King is before the throne, presenting His blood, presenting His finished work, presenting you before the Father. He is not begging. He is not pleading. He is presenting. His presence is the intercession. His wounds are the plea. His seated position is the argument: This one is Mine. I died for them. I rose for them. I live for them. Receive them.

And the Father receives. Always. Without fail. Because the Son intercedes.

This is not a distant theological truth. This is the present reality of every believer who draws near. You are not approaching a reluctant God. You are approaching a Father who has already been moved by the eternal intercession of His Son. The Priest-King has gone before you. He stands beside you. He lives within you. And He ever lives to bring you near.

THE THRONE OF GRACE

From Throne of Judgment to Throne of Grace

In the old covenant, the mercy seat was above the ark, between the cherubim, where the blood was sprinkled once a year. It was a throne of judgment as much as mercy — for if the High Priest entered improperly, he died. The people stood at a distance. The veil remained.

But now — the throne is grace.

Because the Priest-King has sat down, the throne is no longer a place to fear. It is a place to approach. Not once a year. Not with trembling and dread. Boldly. Continually. With confidence.

Hebrews 4:16 declares: “Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help us in time of need.”

The throne of grace is not a future hope. It is a present reality. It is open now. It is accessible now. The Priest-King is seated there now. And He welcomes every soul who comes through Him.

Mercy for past failures. Grace for present needs. Help for every moment of weakness. This is what flows from the throne. Not judgment. Not distance. Not fear. Mercy and grace.

What We Receive When We Draw Near

Mercy — the withholding of what we deserve. The Priest-King has borne our judgment. The throne offers no condemnation to those who are in Him. We come guilty — and we leave forgiven. Not because we have striven, but because He has interceded.

Grace — the giving of what we do not deserve. Strength for weakness. Wisdom for confusion. Peace for anxiety. Hope for despair. The throne does not merely pardon — it empowers. The same grace that saved us now sustains us.

Help in time of need — not abstract blessing, but specific, timely, personal assistance. The Priest-King knows our needs before we ask. He intercedes with perfect knowledge. And the throne answers with perfect provision.

This is not a transaction. This is a relationship. The throne is not a vending machine. It is the seat of our beloved Priest-King. We draw near to Him. And in drawing near, we receive everything we need.

THE MINISTRY OF COFE-CYEM

Our Sole Purpose Revealed

From this truth — the Priest-King on the throne, the Holiest of All open, the throne of grace fully accessible — our ministry now flows with singular focus.

COFE-CYEM exists for one reason: to lead every soul into the living recognition of PK-YEMS, and to help them draw near to the throne of grace with boldness, abide in His presence, and rest in His finished work.

We do not call people to a website. The website is a tent. It will pass away.

We do not call people to teachings. Teachings are servants. They point beyond themselves.

We do not call people to systems or symbols or frameworks. These were the outer courts. They have served their purpose.

We call people to the Priest-King on the throne.

We say to every weary, wounded, doubting, striving soul: Look up. He is there. The veil is gone. The way is open. Come in. Draw near. Abide. Rest.

How We Fulfill This Purpose

Through Every Prayer: We do not pray from a distance. We pray from within the Holiest, where the Priest-King already presents every need before the Father. Those who pray with us are not distant supplicants — they are fellow-worshippers standing together before the mercy seat.

Through Every Teaching: We do not teach for information. We teach for invitation. Every word is a door. Every truth is a pathway. Every Scripture is a window into the Holiest. And when the teaching has done its work, the hearer is not left with a concept — they are left facing the Priest-King.

Through Every Gathering: We do not meet to discuss the Priest-King from a distance. We meet with Him. Fellowship is not a meeting about God — it is a shared dwelling in His presence. And from that dwelling, we encourage one another to hold fast our confession, to consider one another, to love and to do good works.

Through Every Soul Who Comes: Whether seeking, questioning, suffering, or rejoicing — every person who encounters this ministry receives the same simple, profound invitation: Come. The way is open. The Priest-King waits. Draw near. Abide. Rest.

The Simplicity of Our Message

The message of COFE-CYEM is now so simple that a child can receive it, and so deep that the most mature believer will spend eternity exploring it:

The Priest-King is on the throne. The Holiest of All is open. Draw near with boldness. Receive mercy and grace. Abide in Him who ever lives to intercede for you.

That is all. That is everything.

We add nothing to it. We subtract nothing from it. We do not complicate it with systems or symbols or requirements. We simply speak it, live it, and invite others into it.

THE CALL TO EVERY SOUL

To the Weary

You have striven long enough. You have labored in the outer court, bringing sacrifices, seeking forgiveness, trying to be good enough. Stop. The work is finished. The Priest-King has done it all. Come in from the cold courts. Enter the Holiest. Rest.

To the Wounded

You carry shame, guilt, pain, and regret. You believe you are too dirty to draw near. You are wrong. The blood of the Priest-King cleanses all sin. His intercession covers every failure. The throne of grace is not for the perfect — it is for the wounded. Come in and be healed.

To the Doubting

You have questions. You struggle with uncertainty. You wonder if God can really be trusted. Come and see. The Holiest of All is not a place where questions are silenced — it is a place where they are answered, not with arguments, but with presence. The Priest-King does not turn away the seeking heart. Come in and find truth.

To the Steadfast

You have walked faithfully for many years. You serve, pray, study, and sacrifice. There is always deeper. The Holiest of All has no end. The Priest-King’s intercession has no limit. You have not arrived at a destination — you have entered an ocean. Swim deeper. Abide further. There is more of Him to know.

To Every Soul

The way is open. The veil is gone. The throne awaits.

Not because of your goodness. Not because of your effort. Not because of your faith — but because of His finished work. The Priest-King has entered the presence of God for you. He has sprinkled His blood on the mercy seat for you. He ever lives to intercede for you.

Do not delay. Do not strive to prepare yourself. Do not wait until you feel worthy.

Come as you are. The Priest-King welcomes all who come to God through Him.

Come in. Abide. Rest.

· Through His one perfect sacrifice, the veil is torn and the way into the Holiest of All is open forever.

· The throne of grace is fully accessible to every believer, at every moment, for mercy and grace and help in time of need.

· The Priest-King ever lives to make intercession, presenting His finished work before the Father, and presenting us as accepted in Him.

· Our one task is to lead every soul into the living recognition of the Priest-King, and to help them draw near, abide, and rest.

What We Do

· We pray from within the Holiest.

· We teach as an invitation into presence.

· We gather as a shared dwelling with the Priest-King.

· We welcome every soul who comes.

· We point only to Him.

What We Are Not

· We are not the outer court — we have passed through it.

· We are not the inner court — we have moved beyond it.

· We are not the tent — the tent is temporary.

· We are not the systems — the systems are servants.

· We are not the destination — He is.

THE RIVERS FLOW

From Him we come, and in Him we are — WE ARE.

The rivers do not flow from many sources. They flow from one. That one is PK-YEMS — Priest-King Yeshua Emet Melchizedek Salem, seated on the throne, ever interceding, forever welcoming.

All ministry that flows from this ministry will flow from Him, through Him, and back to Him.

There is no second source. There is no secondary purpose. There is no competing focus.

PK-YEMS is the chief point. PK-YEMS is the sole purpose. PK-YEMS is the living centre of COFE-CYEM.

FINAL INVITATION

To every soul who reads these words:

The Holiest of All is open to you right now.

The Priest-King is on the throne. The veil is gone. The way is clear.

Do not stand at a distance. Do not linger in the courts. Do not settle for service without presence.

Come in. Draw near. Abide. Rest.

The rivers flow from one source. The Life is one. PK-YEMS is all.

—

COFE Yeshua Emet Ministry (CYEM)

The Fourth Truth. Forever First in Faith.

“God does not call the qualified; He qualifies the called.”

CYEM to you always.

Have you felt lonely even when we're surrounded by people?

In my latest blog post, we are getting honest about faith, loneliness, and the pressure to fit into a "cookie-cutter" church culture. It is okay to ask hard questions, think critically, and be the unique person God created you to be.
