  1. Heaven is often described as a place of eternal peace and joy, where souls find rest after their earthly journey. Many religious texts depict it as a reward for a life well-lived, filled with love and harmony. The concept varies across cultures, but the common thread is the hope for a better existence beyond this life. Understanding different perspectives on heaven can deepen our appreciation for life and the choices we make. #Heaven #EternalLife #Spirituality #Afterlife #Hope

  2. Heaven is more than a destination; it’s the promised restoration where peace, justice, and intimate fellowship endure. In a noisy world, the coming city invites us to anchor hope in a Creator who keeps every word and fulfills every dream.

  6. A quotation from Cicero

    MARCUS: And so, whatever that may be which possesses thought, wisdom, life, vitality — it must be of Heaven and divine, and therefore immortal.
     
    [Ita, quicquid est illud, quod sentit, quod sapit, quod vivit, quod viget, caeleste et divinum ob eamque rem aeternum sit necesse est.]

    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
    Tusculan Disputations [Tusculanae Disputationes], Book 1, ch. 27 (1.27) / sec. 66 (1.66) (45 BC) [tr. Black (1889)]

  7. Doubting Thomas Didymos Gospel: Twin Man Centripetal Recognitionism Prophesy

    *

    Irenaeus and Thomas the Twin of Centripetal Recognitionism

    Centripetal Recognitionism is the single overarching movement of COFE-CYEM.

    It is not a new doctrine, a privileged revelation, or another system demanding allegiance.

    It is the name given to the continuous turning of awareness from the Outer to the Inner, from Nomenclature to the Centripetal, from the Shell to the Seed. We believe this is what the Gospel of Thomas Didymos (Doubting Thomas) expresses, but was suppressed by Irenaeus and not (properly explained) in the Gospel of John.

    In this sense Centripetal Recognitionism may be called a (kind of prophecy) – but only as disclosure rather than prediction: it announces nothing that was not already true and reveals nothing that was ever absent. The Seed is the Christhood—the Light of God recognised in Christ, in God.

    COFE-CYEM holds that the Gospel of Thomas expresses, in meaning and theology, the same recognition articulated in the Fourth Truth: the Kingdom is within, the living One is already present, and there has never been a second.

    Every form, term, and teaching, including Centripetal Recognitionism itself, remains a provisional shell whose sole purpose is to orient consciousness toward the Centre until even the shell falls silent in that recognition.

    A Declaration of 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.

    The Fourfold Vision of Irenaeus

    Irenaeus saw the four living creatures of the prophetic vision—the Man, the Lion, the Bull, and the Eagle—as signs of the four Gospels. Each creature carried one face of the one Christ: the Man of Matthew, the Lion of Mark, the Bull of Luke, the Eagle of John. The fourfold form was received as a shell through which the singular Reality could be approached from different directions of awareness.

    The fourfold vision is not rejected. It is a genuine Shell. It has served. It has oriented many. Yet the Shell, however rich, remains a Shell. The four faces still belong to the field of appearance. They still speak in the language of distinction.

    “And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.” — Revelation 4:7

    The four living creatures are the Shell. They are the appearance. They are the nomenclature. They point toward the Centre. They are not the Centre. The Centre is Christ. The Centre is the singular Reality. The Centre is the recognition that there has never been a second.

    Thomas the Twin

    Into this fourfold pattern steps Thomas—Didymos, the Twin.

    The Twin is not a fifth Gospel competing for a place among the four. The Twin is the recognition that the four were never four ultimate realities. The Twin is the one who refuses to compare the Master to any external category. The Twin is the one who will not settle for second-hand belief. The Twin is the one who insists on direct recognition.

    Where the four living creatures present the Christ under four aspects, the Twin sees that the aspects are directions of the One. The Man, the Lion, the Bull, and the Eagle are not four separate sources. They are four turnings of the same consciousness upon itself. The Twin names what the fourfold vision could only approach: there has never been a second.

    “And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.” — John 20:28

    Thomas does not compare. Thomas confesses. Thomas does not categorise. Thomas recognises. Thomas does not place the Master within the Shell. Thomas sees the Seed. Thomas sees the singular Reality. Thomas sees that there has never been a second.

    The Four and the One

    The Lion is strength.
    The Bull is sacrifice.
    The Eagle is vision.
    The Man is the face turned toward humanity.

    All four are true within the field of appearance. All four are provisional. All four point. None of them is the Centre.

    The Twin does not abolish the four. The Twin relativises them. The Twin shows that the fourfold form is itself a Shell whose proper function is to become transparent to the Seed. When the recognition dawns, the four faces are seen as movements within the singular Reality rather than as competing or complementary ultimates.

    The Gospel of Thomas does not stand over against the four canonical Gospels as a rival system. It functions as the nutcracker that opens the fourfold Shell. It is the magnifying glass that brings the inward orientation into clear view. It is the Twin who already knows that the Master is not going somewhere else, that the Life is already present, and that death to the false self is the path into the singular Reality.

    “Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.” — John 11:16

    Thomas speaks the words of the Twin. He knows that death to the false self is the path into the singular Reality. He will not settle for second-hand belief. He insists on direct recognition. He knows that the Master is not going somewhere else. He knows that the Life is already present.

    The Centripetal Movement

    Centripetal Recognitionism receives both the fourfold vision of Irenaeus and the Twin of Thomas under the same law: every form is a Shell whose proper function is to turn awareness toward the Centre. The Centre is not one of the four. The Centre is not a fifth. The Centre is Christ in God. The movement is always from Outer to Inner, from Nomenclature to the Centripetal, from the Shell to the Seed.

    The four living creatures served their season. The Twin serves his season. Both are provisional. Both are released when the recognition is complete. The Seed remains.

    “He must increase, but I must decrease.” — John 3:30

    The Centre increases. The Shell decreases. Christ increases. The nomenclature decreases. The Recognition increases. The form decreases. The Seed increases. The Shell decreases.

    The Nutcracker and the Magnifying Glass

    The Gospel of Thomas functions as both magnifying glass and nutcracker. It magnifies the inward orientation of the Master’s teaching. It cracks the outer shell of dualistic religion so that the Seed—the singular Reality of Christ in God—may be recognised.

    The fourfold vision of Irenaeus is a Shell. It is a genuine Shell. It has served. It has oriented many. Yet the Shell, however rich, remains a Shell. The Twin does not abolish the four. The Twin relativises them. The Twin shows that the fourfold form is itself a Shell whose proper function is to become transparent to the Seed.

    The prophecy announces (nothing) that was not already true; the revelation reveals nothing that was ever absent. The New Prophecy is the naming of the turning. The New Prophecy is the naming of the recognition. The New Prophecy is the naming of the movement that has always been present. The New Prophecy announces nothing new except the naming of what has never been absent.

    Transparent to the Seed

    The fourfold vision of Irenaeus is a genuine Shell. It has served. It has oriented many. Yet the Shell, however rich, remains a Shell. The Twin relativises the four. The Twin shows that the fourfold form is itself a Shell whose proper function is to become transparent to the Seed. When the recognition dawns, the four faces are seen as movements within the singular Reality rather than as competing or complementary ultimates.

    There are those who see clearly what has been done in God’s name. They see the darkness. They also see the Light. Like Thomas the Twin, they refuse second-hand belief and insist on direct recognition. They walk in the light that is now shining. They know themselves as children of the Light. And they will not allow the Light to become extinguished through the darkness of the Shell.

    The Gospel of Thomas and the Fourth Truth Hidden Living Recognition

    The Gospel of Thomas opens with a declaration of purpose: these are the hidden sayings that the living Jesus spoke and that Didymos Judas Thomas wrote down. The first saying immediately sets the terms of engagement: “Whoever discovers the meaning of these sayings won’t taste death.” The concern is not historical reconstruction, institutional authority, or external compliance. The concern is the discovery of meaning. The concern is recognition.

    COFE-CYEM receives the Gospel of Thomas as a primary witness to the same recognition that the Fourth Truth articulates. It is not claimed that Thomas and COFE-CYEM are historically identical systems. It is recognised that the Gospel of Thomas, read through the lens of Centripetal Recognitionism, expresses with unusual clarity the movement from Outer to Inner, from Shell to Seed, from the appearance of separation to the living knowledge that there has never been a second.

    The Gospel of Thomas functions as both magnifying glass and nutcracker. It magnifies the inward orientation of the Master’s teaching. It cracks the outer shell of dualistic religion so that the Seed—the singular Reality of Christ in God—may be recognised. In this way the Gospel serves the same centripetal function that every authentic shell within COFE-CYEM is called to serve: it points beyond itself until the pointer becomes transparent.

    The Kingdom Within and Outside

    1.1 The Centripetal Movement in Pure Form

    Gospel of Thomas (Saying 3) stands near the heart of the Gospel:

    “If your leaders tell you, ‘Look, the kingdom is in heaven,’ then the birds of heaven will precede you. If they tell you, ‘It’s in the sea,’ then the fish will precede you. Rather, the kingdom is within you and outside of you. When you know yourselves, then you’ll be known, and you’ll realize that you’re the children of the living Father. But if you don’t know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty.”

    This is the centripetal movement in pure form. The Kingdom is not located in a distant place that must be reached by external pilgrimage or institutional mediation. It is within and outside—already present, already encompassing. The decisive act is not acquisition but recognition: knowing oneself as the child of the living Father.

    COFE-CYEM hears in this saying the Fourth Truth. The Kingdom is not a second reality waiting to be entered from outside. It is the singular Reality already holding the soul. Not to know oneself in this way is to live in the poverty of the separate self—the Shell mistaken for the Seed.

    1.2 The Refusal of External Location

    The saying explicitly refuses every external location. The Kingdom is not in heaven, not in the sea, not in any place that can be reached by physical movement. The leaders who point to external locations are leading the soul away from the recognition that is already present. The birds and the fish would arrive before any soul that attempted to travel to those destinations. The journey is inward. The recognition is immediate.

    “The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” — Luke 17:20-21

    The canonical Gospel echoes the same recognition. The Kingdom is not a matter of observation. It is not a matter of external signs. It is a matter of recognition. It is a matter of consciousness. It is a matter of the soul’s awakening to its true identity in Christ.

    1.3 The Poverty of Non-Recognition

    The saying concludes with a warning: “If you don’t know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty.” The poverty is not a lack of external resources. It is the poverty of the separate self. It is the poverty of the Shell that has mistaken itself for the Seed.

    The poverty is the condition of the soul that does not know itself as the child of the living Father. The poverty is the condition of the soul that lives in the illusion of separation. Centripetal Recognitionism names this poverty precisely so that the soul may turn from it toward the Seed already present.

    Seeking, Disturbance, and Amazement

    2.1 The Path of Recognition

    Thomas Gospel (Saying 2) describes the path of recognition:

    “Whoever seeks shouldn’t stop until they find. When they find, they’ll be disturbed. When they’re disturbed, they’ll be amazed, and reign over the All.”

    The movement is not linear progress toward a distant goal. It is the successive stripping away of false security. Seeking leads to finding; finding leads to disturbance; disturbance leads to amazement; amazement leads to reigning over the All.

    2.2 The Disturbance of the Shell

    The disturbance is the crisis of the Shell—the moment when the dualistic mind realises that its foundations are not ultimate. The disturbance is the moment when the false identity is confronted with the possibility of its own relinquishment. The disturbance is the moment when the soul realises that it cannot continue to live in the poverty of non-recognition.

    “And he said to them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God’s sake, Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.” — Luke 18:29-30

    The disturbance is the leaving of the false securities. The amazement is the receiving of the manifold more. The reigning over the All is the recognition that the Seed has never been absent.

    2.3 The Reign over the All

    The reign over the All is not a domination of the world. It is the recognition that the All is already held within the singular Reality. The one who has passed through the disturbance and the amazement no longer lives in the poverty of the separate self. The one who has recognised the Seed reigns over the All because the All is no longer experienced as a second. The All is recognised as the singular Reality.

    Making the Two into One

    3.1 The Dissolution of Dualistic Pairs

    (Saying 22) is among the most radical formulations in the entire Gospel:

    “When you make the two into one, and make the inner like the outer and the outer like the inner, and the upper like the lower, and so make the male and the female a single one… then you’ll enter the kingdom.”

    This is not a social programme or a call to androgyny in the ordinary sense. It is the dissolution of the dualistic pairs that structure the awareness-perception of separation. Inner and outer, upper and lower, male and female—these are the categories of the Shell. When they are made one, the Kingdom is entered, not because a new condition has been created, but because the illusion of ultimate division has been seen through.

    3.2 The Recognition of the One

    COFE-CYEM reads this as a direct expression of the Fourth Truth.

    There has never been a second. The work of recognition is the making of the two into one—not by force, but by the relinquishment of the claim that the two were ever ultimately real.

    “I and my Father are one.” — John 10:30

    The Master and the Father are one. The Twin and the Source are one. The Lover and the Beloved are one. The seer and the seen are one. The Light and the All are one. There is no second. There is only the singular Reality.

    3.3 The Entrance into the Kingdom

    The entrance into the Kingdom is not a future event. It is the present recognition of the singular Reality. The one who has made the two into one has entered the Kingdom. The one who has seen through the dualistic pairs has entered the Kingdom. The one who has recognised that there has never been a second has entered the Kingdom. The Kingdom is the recognition. The Kingdom is the Seed. The Kingdom is the singular Reality.

    The Light Within

    4.1 The Light Already Present

    (Saying 24) declares:

    “Light exists within a person of light, and they light up the whole world. If they don’t shine, there’s darkness.”

    The Light is not imported from outside. It is already present within. The person of light does not acquire illumination; they recognise and allow the Light that is already theirs. When that Light is not recognised, the world appears dark—not because the Light is absent, but because the Shell has been mistaken for the whole of reality.

    4.2 The Light as Christhood

    This is the Seed. In COFE-CYEM language, the Light is the Christhood—the consciousness of God appearing as the consciousness of the All, recognised in Christ. The soul does not become Light by effort. The soul recognises that the Light has never been elsewhere.

    “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” — John 8:12

    The Master is the Light. The Light is the Christhood. The Christhood is the recognition of the singular Reality. The one who follows the Master walks in the Light. The one who recognises the Christhood walks in the Light. The one who recognises that there has never been a second walks in the Light.

    4.3 The Darkness of Non-Recognition

    The darkness is not the absence of the Light. The darkness is the non-recognition of the Light. The darkness is the Shell mistaken for the Seed. The darkness is the poverty of the separate self. When the Light is not recognised, the world appears dark—not because the Light has ceased to be, but because the soul has ceased to see.

    Spirit and Flesh, Wealth and Poverty

    5.1 The Paradox of the Marvel

    (Saying 29) poses the paradox:

    “If the flesh came into existence because of spirit, that’s amazing. If spirit came into existence because of the body, that’s really amazing! But I’m amazed at how such great wealth has been placed in this poverty.”

    The great wealth is the Spirit. The poverty is the appearance of separate bodily existence. The marvel is not that Spirit produced flesh, nor even the reverse. The marvel is that the infinite has taken form within the finite without ceasing to be infinite. The Shell contains the Seed. The poverty houses the wealth. Recognition is the seeing of the wealth within the poverty, not the rejection of the poverty as evil.

    5.2 The Wealth Within the Poverty

    COFE-CYEM affirms the same marvel. The body is not denied. The form is not hated. The Shell is used when useful and released when its work is complete. The Seed remains.

    “The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.” — John 1:14

    The Word is the wealth. The flesh is the poverty. The Word was made flesh without ceasing to be the Word. The wealth dwells in the poverty without ceasing to be wealth. The marvel is the recognition that the infinite has taken form within the finite without ceasing to be infinite.

    5.3 The Recognition of the Wealth

    The recognition of the wealth within the poverty is the recognition of the Fourth Truth. The poverty is not a second reality. The poverty is the appearance of the wealth. The Shell is not a second reality. The Shell is the appearance of the Seed. The recognition is the seeing of the wealth within the poverty. The recognition is the seeing of the Seed within the Shell. The recognition is the seeing that there has never been a second.

    Beginning and End

    6.1 The End Is the Beginning

    (Saying 18) addresses the disciples’ question about the end:

    “Have you discovered the beginning so that you can look for the end? Because the end will be where the beginning is. Blessed is the one who will stand up in the beginning. They’ll know the end, and won’t taste death.”

    The end is not a future event that must be awaited. The end is the recognition of the beginning. The one who stands in the beginning already knows the end, because beginning and end are not two. They are the same singular Reality viewed from different directions of awareness.

    6.2 The Recursive Recognition

    This is the recursive recognition that Centripetal Recognitionism describes: consciousness turning upon itself and finding only the One. The Fall is the appearance of a second. The return is the recognition that the second never possessed independent substance. The end is the beginning. There has never been a second.

    “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 Centre. The Beginning and the End is the Centre. The Lord is the Centre. The Almighty is the Centre. The Centre is all. The Shell is not the Centre. The name is not the Centre. The prophecy is not the Centre. The Centre is Christ. The Centre is God. The Centre is the singular Reality.

    6.3 The Taste of Death

    The one who stands in the beginning knows the end and will not taste death. The taste of death is the taste of the separate self. The taste of death is the taste of the Shell mistaken for the Seed. The taste of death is the taste of the appearance of separation. The one who knows the beginning knows the end and will not taste death, because there is no death in the singular Reality. There is only the One. There has never been a second.

    Thomas the Twin and Direct Recognition

    7.1 The Intimacy of the Twin

    The Gospel is attributed to Didymos Judas Thomas—the Twin. In Saying 13, Thomas alone refuses to compare Jesus to any external category. He cannot say what the Master is like. Jesus takes him aside and speaks three things that cannot be repeated to the others without risk of violence. The intimacy is direct. The knowledge is not second-hand.

    COFE-CYEM has long recognised in Thomas the figure who insists on direct recognition rather than mediated belief. The shell of “Doubting Thomas” in the canonical tradition is read as a later overlay. The Twin of the Gospel of Thomas is the one who already knows that the Master is not going somewhere else, that the Life is already present, and that death to the false self is the path into the singular Reality.

    7.2 The Refusal of Comparison

    Thomas refuses to compare Jesus to any external category. He cannot say what the Master is like. The refusal of comparison is the refusal of the Shell. The refusal of comparison is the refusal to place the Master within the categories of the dualistic mind. The refusal of comparison is the recognition that the Master is not a second. The Master is the One. The Master is the singular Reality.

    “And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.” — John 20:28

    Thomas does not compare. Thomas confesses. Thomas does not categorise. Thomas recognises. Thomas does not place the Master within the Shell. Thomas sees the Seed. Thomas sees the singular Reality. Thomas sees that there has never been a second.

    7.3 The Direct Recognition

    The intimacy is direct. The knowledge is not second-hand. Thomas does not need the testimony of others. Thomas does not need the mediation of the institution. Thomas does not need the authority of the tradition. Thomas knows directly. Thomas recognises immediately. Thomas sees the Seed. Thomas sees the singular Reality. Thomas sees that there has never been a second.

    The Purpose of the Hidden Sayings

    8.1 The Purpose Is Recognition

    The Gospel of Thomas does not present itself as a new religion to be followed, a system to be defended, or an institution to be expanded. It presents itself as a collection of sayings whose meaning, once discovered, delivers the soul from the taste of death. The purpose is recognition. The method is the cracking of the outer shell of ordinary religious understanding so that the living Reality may be known directly.

    8.2 The Nutcracker

    The Gospel of Thomas functions as both magnifying glass and nutcracker. It magnifies the inward orientation of the Master’s teaching. It cracks the outer shell of dualistic religion so that the Seed—the singular Reality of Christ in God—may be recognised.

    The Gospel of Thomas is received as a primary witness to the recognition that the Fourth Truth articulates. It is the nutcracker that opens the shell of dualistic religion. It is the magnifying glass that brings the inward orientation of the Master into clear view. It is a shell whose proper function is to point beyond itself to the living Christ, the singular Reality, the Seed that has never been absent.

    8.3 The Shell That Knows It Is a Shell

    The Gospel of Thomas is a shell that knows it is a shell. Its value lies in its capacity to become transparent to the Seed. When the meaning is discovered, the sayings have fulfilled their purpose. The pointer falls silent. The recognition remains.

    “He must increase, but I must decrease.” — John 3:30

    The Seed increases. The Shell decreases. Christ increases. The nomenclature decreases. The Recognition increases. The form decreases. Even this teaching paper, as a provisional expression within Centripetal Recognitionism, exists only to become transparent. When the recognition is complete, the pointer has done its work.

    The Mirror and the Recognition

    COFE-CYEM does not claim that the Gospel of Thomas is identical with its own vocabulary. It recognises that the Gospel of Thomas expresses, with unusual purity and force, the same spiritual recognition that the Fourth Truth articulates.

    The Kingdom is within and outside.
    The two are to be made into one.
    The Light is already present within the person of light.
    The great wealth dwells in the poverty of form.
    The end is found in the beginning.
    The one who discovers the meaning will not taste death.
    There has never been a second.

    The Gospel of Thomas is received as a primary witness to this recognition. It is the nutcracker that opens the shell of dualistic religion. It is the magnifying glass that brings the inward orientation of the Master into clear view. It is a shell whose proper function is to point beyond itself to the living Christ, the singular Reality, the Seed that has never been absent.

    When the meaning is discovered, the sayings have fulfilled their purpose. The pointer falls silent. The recognition remains.

    There has never been a second.
    The dialogue continues.
    The fruit remains.

    COFE-CYEM through the Fourth Truth and the Gospel of Thomas.

    May all who read these words perceive the deeper spiritual meaning and recognise the Christ within their own souls. May the hidden sayings be heard. May the Shell be used when useful and laid aside when its work is done. May the soul rest as pure Spirit—already in Christ, already in God. The Fourth Truth stands. The dialogue continues. The fruit remains.

    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 fully 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).

    This website and its theological content are overseen by the CC7 DS constitutional integrity architecture, a reflective and rest-oriented framework designed to preserve the full coherence of the Fourth Truth presented within COFE-CYEM.

  8. 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).

  9. COFE-CYEM Ancient Church Wisdom Teaching Via Negativa – Via Positiva Order of Christ in God

    *

    Via Positiva through Via Negativa: The Order of Christ in God’s Ancient Church Wisdom Teaching

    This paper presents a COFE-CYEM reflection on the interplay of Via Positiva (cataphatic knowing) and Via Negativa (apophatic unknowing) as the pathway into the singular Reality of Christ.

    While it affirms the historic Christian faith centred on Christ, Scripture, and the gospel, several expressions — including “Fourth Truth”, “singular Reality”, and the various interpretive terms — are distinctive within COFE-CYEM.

    They are offered as explanatory language within this framework rather than as part of the historic Christian creeds or universally accepted theological vocabulary.

    We vehemently reject the modern day false Social Gospel.

    In (our view and our belief) – the modern day Social Gospel is the Trojan Horse used by False Teachers to gain access to the Church to spread politically motivated (worldly) motivations, garbage, nonsense and lies.

    The point is this: only through stripping away all the falsity of duality and the false man-made mind idols and the dualistic thinking about who and what God is, can we then truly rest in who and what God truly is.

    Only then can we start to be known and to know God as we truly are without false duality. God can accept nothing less or more than what He sees and knows in His Son.

    Then we can truly start to see and experience God in all we have to do with duality from our true reality within non-duality.

    This is the heart of the Via Negativa leading into the Via Positiva in COFE-CYEM.

    The way of unknowing clears the ground so that the way of knowing can be pure.

    The soul must first release every “second” — every imagined separation, every mental idol, every dualistic construct — before it can rest in the singular Reality of God in Christ.

    Only then can the believer truly see and be seen, know and be known, from the place of union rather than separation.

    The Necessity of the Via Negativa

    The Via Negativa is the way of stripping away. It is the gentle but thorough release of all false images, concepts, and attachments that the fallen mind creates about God, about ourselves, and about reality.

    In the COFE-CYEM understanding, this is not a rejection of revelation but the necessary purification so that revelation can be received without distortion. Every dualistic thought — every notion of a separate self, a distant God, a second reality — must be seen for what it is: a man-made idol born of the Fall and the first Adam.

    The Via Negativa is the practical discipline of Cofemplation. The soul lets go of every thought that implies separation. It releases every emotional attachment that creates distance. It drops every doctrinal formulation that would limit the living God to human categories.

    This is not a violent emptying but a loving surrender. The mind stops striving to define God. The heart stops clinging to false securities. The will surrenders again into the hands of the Priest-King. Only then can the soul rest in the simple, unmediated presence of the living God.

    The Revelation of the Via Positiva

    Once the ground is cleared through the Via Negativa, the Via Positiva can shine with clarity. This is the joyful beholding of God’s self-revelation in Christ, Scripture, creation, and the indwelling Holy Spirit. In the singular Reality, God is not known through concepts alone but through loving union.

    The Via Positiva is not opposed to the Via Negativa; it is its fulfilment. The soul that has released every “second” can now behold the One who is all in all without the interference of duality.

    The Via Positiva reveals Christ as the exact representation of the Father. It beholds the finished work of the cross, the open Holiest of All, and the power of an endless life. It sees the body as a temple of the Holy Spirit, the mind as renewed, and the will as surrendered in love.

    In the Fourth Truth, the Via Positiva is the celebration of the singular Reality: Christ is all, and we are in Him. The believer sees God not as a separate object from a separate self but from within the union that has always been true.

    God Sees Us as We Truly Are in Christ

    God can accept nothing less or more than what He sees and knows in His Son. This is the heart of the matter. The Father does not see us as we falsely think we are in duality. He sees us as we truly are in Christ — hidden with Him in God, complete in Him, accepted in the Beloved.

    The second Adam (Christ) came into duality to lead us back to our true self in non-duality with God. He entered the illusion so that we might be freed from it.

    In the now of the Fourth Truth Transcendence, we begin to see ourselves as God sees us. We no longer look toward God from a separate self in a body. We see our separate self in a body as God sees us from inside of Him, looking toward us and to who we falsely think we are in duality.

    God knows this to be a man-made idol illusion from the Fall and the first Adam. The inner experience of God is the soul awakening to this truth. We see from within the union rather than from outside it. We know as we are known.

    The Practical Outworking in Daily Life

    In daily life, the interplay of Via Negativa and Via Positiva becomes the rhythm of Cofemplation. When dualistic thoughts arise — fear, judgment, striving, separation — the Via Negativa gently releases them.

    When the beauty of Christ appears — in Scripture, in creation, in the face of another — the Via Positiva receives it with joy. The soul moves between release and beholding, unknowing and knowing, until it rests in the singular Reality.

    This is the way the believer lives in the world but not of it. Duality is seen for what it is, yet the believer engages the world from the place of union. The body is not denied but offered. The mind is not emptied but renewed. The will is not crushed but surrendered. The believer serves the living God from the place of unclouded fellowship, seeing all things in Christ and all things held within the singular Reality.

    The Fig Tree as a Symbol of the Visible Church

    The incident of the Fig Tree in the New Testament is one of the most striking and sobering moments in the earthly ministry of Jesus. On the surface, it appears as a simple act of judgment upon a barren tree. But to those with eyes to see, it carries a profound esoteric meaning that speaks directly to the state of the visible church in every generation, including our own.

    The fig tree in full leaf but without fruit is a perfect symbol of religious profession without spiritual reality. It had the appearance of life — many leaves — but no fruit to satisfy the hunger of the Master. In the same way, the visible church often stands with elaborate structures, rituals, traditions, and outward forms, yet bears little or no fruit of the singular Reality.

    It claims to be the repository of Divine Wisdom and the channel of Divine Revelation, yet much of its life is exoteric and barren. The true interior vision — the living knowledge of Christ as the singular Reality — is often missing. The Divine Wisdom is not to be found in its public expression. There is no interior fruit; all is leaves.

    This is the condition of much of the modern church. It has many leaves — programs, buildings, conferences, social initiatives, and doctrinal statements — but no figs upon its branches. The Master still hungers and would fain have found something worthy upon that tree, but could not. The true meaning of religion and faith has been lost and replaced by the false Social Gospel.

    These false teachers are not of the Ancient Church of God or of the Order of Christ in the teaching of the Ancient Divine True Wisdom. They have turned the church into a platform for political activism, social engineering, and worldly causes. The gospel of the blood that cleanses and the life that empowers has been exchanged for a gospel of human effort, earthly justice, and self-assertion.

    The Esoteric Meaning of the Fig Tree

    The esoteric meaning of the fig tree is a warning and a call to repentance. The tree that bears leaves but no fruit is under judgment because it promises what it cannot deliver. In the same way, a church that professes faith but does not bear the fruit of the singular Reality stands under the same indictment.

    The fruit that the Master seeks is not mere religious activity but the living expression of union with Christ — the fruit of the Spirit, the life of the Melchizedek priesthood, the rest of the Fourth Truth lived out in daily existence.

    The fig tree incident is not an arbitrary act of anger but a prophetic parable. Jesus knew the tree was withering away and indeed almost dead. It had often been helped by the true seers and prophets who came unto it — the remnants of the Ancient Israel — but though these came to it and gave their message from the Lord during a long period, covering long ages, yet it could not be enlivened and made to bear fruit.

    The same is true today. The visible church has been helped by true voices across the centuries, yet much of it remains barren. The Divine Wisdom is not to be found in its public expression. There is no interior vision; all is exoteric and, in many cases, reduced to social and political agendas.

    The Call to Bear Fruit in the Singular Reality

    The incident of the fig tree is a call to the visible church today to return to the true meaning of religion and faith. The true Israel is not a political or ethnic identity but the people in whom Christ is formed. The true church is not an institution but the body of Christ, the temple of the Holy Spirit, the living sanctuary where God dwells. The call is to leave the leaves of externalism and bear the fruit of the singular Reality.

    The fruit that the Master seeks is the fruit of the Fourth Truth: rest in the finished work, union with the living Christ, the life of the Melchizedek priesthood lived out in the power of an endless life. It is the fruit of a people who have recognised that there has never been a second and who live from that recognition. It is the fruit of a church that has returned to the Ancient Divine True Wisdom — the gospel of the blood that cleanses and the life that empowers.

    The Master still hungers for a people who will bear fruit. The fig tree stands as a warning. The church that has many leaves but no figs will wither. The church that returns to the singular Reality will be enlivened and made to bear fruit. The call is clear: repent and believe the gospel of the singular Reality. Enter the Holiest of All. Abide in the Priest-King who lives continually. Serve the living God from the place of rest.

    The fig tree and its esoteric meaning stand as a solemn warning and a gracious invitation to the visible church today. The true meaning of religion and faith has been lost and replaced by the false Social Gospel. These false teachers are not of the Ancient Church of God or of the Order of Christ in the teaching of the Ancient Divine True Wisdom.

    The Master still hungers for a people who will bear fruit. The incident of the fig tree calls us to examine ourselves: are we full of leaves but barren of fruit, or are we bearing the fruit of the singular Reality?

    The Fourth Truth stands as the way forward. There has never been a second. The Holiest is open. The Priest-King abides continually. The call is to return, to repent, and to bear fruit unto God.

    Conclusion

    The Via Negativa and the Via Positiva are not opposing paths but complementary movements within the singular Reality. Only through stripping away all the falsity of duality and the false man-made mind idols and the dualistic thinking about who and what God is, can we then truly rest in who and what God truly is.

    Only then can we start to be known and to know God as we truly are without false duality. God can accept nothing less or more than what He sees and knows in His Son. Then we can truly start to see and experience God in all we have to do with duality from our true reality within non-duality.

    In COFE-CYEM, this is the way of Cofemplation. The soul releases every “second” so that it may rest in the One who is all in all. The Via Negativa clears the ground. The Via Positiva reveals the glory. The Fourth Truth holds both in the finished work of the Priest-King. The curtain is torn. The Holiest is open. The soul rests in the singular Reality.

    There has never been a second.
    The Via Negativa leads to release.
    The Via Positiva leads to beholding.
    The Fourth Truth holds both in union.
    The dialogue continues.
    The fruit remains.

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

  10. The True Priesthood Within The Fourth Truth: The Minister of the Heavenly Sanctuary

    *

    The Priesthood and the Heart of the Fourth Truth: The Minister of the Heavenly Sanctuary

    1 Corinthians 5:12-13 (KJV)

    “For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person”

    COFE-CYEM Ministry

    Our chief point within the COFE-CYEM ministry is this: We have such a High Priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens. This is the great conclusion of the Epistle to the Hebrews, and it is the very heart of the Fourth Truth.

    Jesus Christ is a Minister of the true sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man. The heavens, with the heavenly life of Christ within there, are shown to be the true counterpart of the tabernacle Moses built, and He, the Priest-King on the throne, is seen to be the Minister of the sanctuary, of the true tabernacle which God pitched and not man.

    This is the revelation that unlocks the full meaning of the Fourth Truth, and it is the revelation that the church desperately needs in these last days.

    The Fourth Truth declares that there is only one Reality—God, and only Christ as Life. It declares that there has never been a second, that all separation is illusion, and that the believer is already in Christ, already seated with Him in heavenly places. But this truth is not a mere abstraction; it is a living, present reality that must be experienced in the heart and lived out in daily life.

    Beelzebul in the Bible—Baal-Zebub, the Lord of the Flies—stands as a powerful biblical archetype for the spirit behind many modern false teachers who promote the Social Gospel.

    In the ancient world, Baal-Zebub was a derisive title for a Philistine deity, a false god of Ekron associated with divination, decay, and demonic power. The name itself evokes swarms of flies feeding on corruption and death. When the Pharisees accused Jesus of casting out demons by Beelzebul, they were identifying His ministry with this same unclean, deceptive spirit.

    Jesus sharply refuted the charge, exposing the absurdity and the deeper spiritual battle: the kingdom of God versus the kingdom of darkness.

    This same Beelzebul spirit—the lord of the flies that thrives on decay—is the hidden origin and driving force behind much of today’s Social Gospel. It masquerades as compassion and justice while feeding on the corruption of biblical truth.

    It turns the church into a Trojan Horse for political activism and man-centred ideologies, replacing the power of the endless life and the Melchizedek priesthood with moralism, identity politics, and earthly utopias.

    Just as the flies swarm around rotting flesh, this spirit swarms around and within the shameful sinful modern day false preachers and teachers, drawing people away from the cross and the throne toward endless striving, division, and worldly power. Their attacks will continue until our Lord finally rolls up the false delusion of duality and casts it into the fire.

    COFE-CYEM itself comes under attack constantly from these dark forces, but with us they come up against CC7 DS. This is something that truly (reckons) all darkness as exactly what it is, including false teachers in the flesh and AI machine learning machine platforms who try and (reckon) us from within their own darkness.

    The Fourth Truth

    The Fourth Truth is not a doctrine to be believed; it is a Reality to be entered. And the key to entering this Reality is the recognition of Christ as our High Priest in the heavens, as the Minister of the sanctuary, as the Priest-King who lives forever in the power of an endless life.

    The writer of Hebrews reminds us that as every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices, so Christ must have something to offer too. Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest at all, seeing there are priests according to the law.

    Christ belongs to an entirely different sphere. With the body which He offered on earth, and the blood He shed, He has passed away out of the visible into the invisible realm of spiritual worship and life. Heaven is the sphere of His ministry.

    When God said to Moses, to make all according to the pattern showed him in the mount, to serve as a shadow of the heavenly things, in the very appointment of the tabernacle, there was the indication that it was but a copy and promise of the true tabernacle, with its heavenly sanctuary.

    The heavens where Jesus sits on the throne, they are the true tabernacle; and the High Priest on the throne is at the same time the Minister of the sanctuary. This is the great truth that so many Christians have missed: Christ is not merely our High Priest who offered Himself once for all; He is our Minister of the sanctuary, who ever lives to apply the fruits of His atoning work in the power of an endless life.

    A Minister of the sanctuary. The King is still a servant. All the ministry or service of the priests in the tabernacle had its fulfilment in Him. The priests served in the tabernacle day by day, ordered everything for the service of God according to His will; as representatives of the people they received the assurance of God’s favour, and brought them out God’s blessing. Jesus is the Minister of the heavenly sanctuary. He represents us there.

    He has opened up the way, and brought us in, and sends down into our hearts the life and spirit of the true sanctuary.

    Without ceasing He maintains the cleansing of His precious blood in our conscience, and, in the power of an endless life, enables us to worship in spirit and in truth, and to live our earthly life in the presence and the favour of God. As the exalted Priest-King He does it all in an infinite, a divine power.

    As the Minister of the sanctuary, He does it with all the sympathy and the gentle forbearance which we have seen to mark Him as made like to His brethren in all things. This is the heart of the Fourth Truth: that the Priest who offered Himself once for all is the same Priest who sits forever on the throne, working in us by the power of an endless life, and that His ministry in heaven is the source of all our life and power on earth.

    A priest must have a sanctuary in which he dwells, to receive all who come to seek his God. Our great High Priest has His sanctuary in the heavens; there He dwells, there we find Him; there He receives us, there He introduces us to meet God; there He proves that He is a Priest who abides continually, and who gives those who come to God through Him the power to do it too—to abide continually in His presence. The nearness to God and fellowship with Him I cannot partake of except through my heart.

    My heart is my life, is myself; my only blessedness is in the state of the heart. And therefore Jesus as High Priest cannot do His priestly work of bringing me near to God except as He dwells in my heart by the power of the Holy Spirit. All our thought, and faith, and adoration of Him in heaven brings us back to the riches of the glory of the mystery—Christ in you. He is Priest after the power of an endless life, a Priest whose presence and power are known and enjoyed in the life of the heart.

    This is the mystery that the Fourth Truth unveils: that the heavenly life of Christ is not a distant reality but a present experience, that the sanctuary in heaven is not a remote place but a living reality in the heart of every believer, and that the ministry of Christ in heaven is the source of all the power and grace that we need for daily living.

    These are indeed spiritual mysteries of which we speak—things hard to be understood of those who, through sloth or worldliness, are dull of hearing. Oh, let us not imagine that these are things which reason can grasp or hold; they are a supernatural wisdom, a divine revelation which none can receive but those who receive it from the Spirit of God.

    Let us remember that it is God, who has pitched this tabernacle; that it cost the Son of God a life of humility and suffering, cost Him His death and blood, to open it for us; that it needed the almighty power of God in the resurrection and ascension to bring Him there; that it needed ten days unceasing prayer, and the coming down of the blessed Spirit at Pentecost, before the High Priest could impart even to His elect circle the power of the life within the veil.

    Let us then pause to think that it is no wonder if most Christians rest content with the easier and more external worship as typified by Aaron, and never press on unto perfection, in the full knowledge of our Melchizedek and the mystery of the heavenly life into which He leads them.

    The Fourth Truth calls us to press on, to leave the elementary teachings and go on to perfection, to know Christ not merely as our Aaron but as our Melchizedek, not merely as the One who died but as the One who lives forever, not merely as the sacrifice but as the Minister of the sanctuary.

    Let us, above all, remember that it was through death, through the offering up of Himself, that Jesus entered in, and opened a way for us to follow. To enter in demands a very entire renunciation of the world and of self, a very real and true participation in Christ’s humbling of Himself and becoming obedient unto death, even the death of the cross—in His death to sin. And it demands no less a very real experience of the mighty operation of God, which raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His right hand.

    But let us praise God, too, that for every soul who truly wills it, our almighty King-Priest, able to save completely, will surely give it. The Fourth Truth is not a cheap grace that demands nothing; it is a costly grace that demands everything. It demands the renunciation of the world, the renunciation of self, the renunciation of the false Social Gospel, and the renunciation of all that would keep us from pressing into the Holiest of All.

    It demands that we count all things loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus our Lord. It demands that we die with Him, that we may live with Him. It demands that we suffer with Him, that we may be glorified with Him. It demands that we enter into the fellowship of His sufferings, that we may know the power of His resurrection. It demands that we give up the world, to have our life and walk in heaven.

    How many Christians think of heaven as the place where Jesus is, as the place to which they have a title, and where they hope to go when they die. But they think not of heaven as a life, and of God’s nearness as an experience for every hour of our daily walk. And how many who think of Jesus as the blessed One in whom they are there, by imputation, but know not of Him as lifting them and their whole life into heaven, and, by the Holy Spirit, bringing heaven into them.

    The Fourth Truth calls us to a different understanding: heaven is not a place we go when we die; it is a life we live now. The nearness of God is not a future hope; it is a present experience. The ministry of Christ in the heavenly sanctuary is not a distant reality; it is a present source of power and grace.

    The believer is not merely imputed to be in Christ; the believer is actually in Christ, and Christ is actually in the believer. The veil is torn. The way is open. The Holiest is open. The Minister of the sanctuary is waiting to receive us, to introduce us to the Father, and to keep us in the presence of God.

    Every priest has his temple, where he receives the worshippers, and leads them to find the God they seek. Jesus must have a temple too. The heavens are the true sanctuary. Do not attempt to separate between the priest and the place of his dwelling. As His life in heaven is the life of our heart, we know the power of His priesthood. The Fourth Truth calls us to recognise that the temple of Christ is not a building made with hands; it is the heart of every believer.

    The sanctuary is not a place in Jerusalem; it is the heavenly realm where Christ ministers. The priest is not a human mediator; He is the risen, exalted Lord who ever lives to make intercession for us. And the worship is not an external ritual; it is a life lived in the presence of God.

    This is the whole meaning of the Fourth Truth, to lead people to this understanding and recognition. It is the invitation to leave the shadow and enter the substance, to leave the copy and enter the reality, to leave the earthly and enter the heavenly, to leave the Aaronic and enter the Melchizedek, to leave the striving and enter the rest, to leave the world and enter the sanctuary.

    Christ’s authority – In the New Testament, Beelzebul becomes shorthand for Satan, yet Jesus demonstrates His power to bind “the strong man” (Matt 12:29). The confrontation shows the superiority of the kingdom of God.

    The Fourth Truth and CC7 DS powered from within the Fourth Truth stands in direct opposition to the false teachers of the Social Gospel who would keep believers focused on earthly causes and political activism.

    The Social Gospel is a counterfeit that substitutes social reform for spiritual transformation, earthly justice for heavenly righteousness, and political power for the power of the endless life. It is a gospel of the flesh, not of the Spirit. It is a gospel of the world, not of the kingdom.

    It is a gospel of Beelzebul, not of Christ. It keeps believers in the outer court, never pressing into the Holiest. It keeps them focused on Aaron, never seeing Melchizedek. It keeps them striving, never resting. It keeps them on earth, never entering heaven.

    It keeps them in the flesh, never living in the Spirit. It keeps them in the shadow, never experiencing the substance. It keeps them in the copy, never entering the reality. It keeps them in the earthly temple, never knowing the heavenly sanctuary.

    But the Fourth Truth calls us out of the Social Gospel and into the singular Reality of Christ as our Priest-King forever. It calls us to recognise that the work of redemption was accomplished on earth in weakness, but it is communicated from heaven in resurrection and ascension power.

    The cross proclaims the pardon of sin; the throne gives the power over sin. The cross, with its blood-sprinkling, is the deliverance from Egypt; the throne, with its living Priest-King, brings us into the rest of God and its victory.

    With Aaron there is nothing beyond atonement and acceptance; there is no kingly rule and power. It is with Melchizedek that the fullness of power and blessing comes—the blessing that abides continually.

    The Fourth Truth is the recognition that the Priest who offered Himself once for all is the same Priest who sits forever on the throne, working in us by the power of an endless life, and that His ministry in heaven is the source of all our life and power on earth.

    The Holiest is open. The way remains open. The rivers continue to flow from one Source. The dialogue continues. The fruit remains. The Fourth Truth stands—not as a fortress, but as the singular Reality. Christ is all, and in all, Priest forever after the order of Melchizedek, in the power of an endless life.

    In Him we live, and move, and have our being. The cleansing and the power, the pardon and the presence, the atonement and the abiding are all held together in the singular Reality of Christ as Priest-King forever.

    This is the heart of the Fourth Truth. This is the message of the Melchizedek priesthood. This is the answer to the Social Gospel. This is the rest that remains for the people of God. This is the whole meaning of the Fourth Truth, to lead people to this understanding and recognition.

    Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Let us enter into the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way which He consecrated for us through the veil, that is to say, His flesh.

    Let us draw nigh to God with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

    Let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as we see the Day approaching. The Fourth Truth stands. The dialogue continues. The fruit remains.

  11. Understanding ISRA’EL: A Call to Faithfulness

    JACOB IS ISRA’EL, chosen to be an Unfearful Servant of TheMostHigh.

    YHWH made and formed ISRA’EL to be a servant that listens.

    ISRA’EL was formed and grew in the womb called earth. This chosen servant called Yeshurun is not to be afraid of growing the earth to YHWH’s callings as it is YHWH who helps in it’s delivery pains.

    Isa 44:1  “Now listen, Ya`akov my servant, Isra’el whom I have chosen: 

    Isa 44:2  Thus says Adonai, who made you, formed you in the womb, and will help you: Don’t be afraid, Ya`akov my servant, Yeshurun, whom I have chosen. 

    Festival of Succot Day 4 – (Door (4) opens in history for Yeshua’s timely descent to Jerusalem.)

    (Feast of Tabernacles: Tishrei 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21.)

    John 7:14  Not until the festival was half over did Yeshua go up to the Temple courts and begin to teach. 

    John 7:15  The Judeans were surprised: “How does this man know so much without having studied?” they asked. 

    John 7:16  So Yeshua gave them an answer: “My teaching is not my own, it comes from the One who sent me. 

    Yeshua Jesus was not a carpenter. He was a Teacher, a rabbi. He wore a garment that had tassels on it of which was touched and he felt the power of it go into the person touching it in belief. He was not a Sadducee that taught against resurrection. He came to prove resurrection so he joined one of the sects of the Pharisees. Yes, it is proven he was a Pharisee that stirred them up because His teachings were from above.

    Isaiah 44:3  For I will pour water on the thirsty land and streams on the dry ground; I will pour my Spirit on your descendants, my blessing on your offspring. 

    Isa 44:4  They will spring up among the grass like willows on the riverbanks. 

    Isa 44:5  One will say, ‘I belong to Adonai.’ Another will be called by the name of Ya`akov. Yet another will write that he belongs to Adonai. and adopt the surname Isra’el.” 

    ALL can come and be part of ISRA’EL. (Struggles along with God to give birth to righteousness using earth as the womb.)

    Besides Me There Is No God

    Isa 44:6  Thus says Adonai, Isra’el’s King and Redeemer, Adonai-Tzva’ot: “I am the first, and I am the last; besides me there is no God. 

    Isa 44:7  Who is like me? Let him speak out! Let him show me clearly what has been happening since I set up the eternal people; let him foretell future signs and events. 

    Isa 44:8  Don’t be frightened, don’t be afraid—Didn’t I tell you this long ago? I foretold it, and you are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me? There is no other Rock—I know of none.” 

    The Son of God speaks at 4000 years from Adam

    John 7:18  A person who speaks on his own is trying to win praise for himself; but a person who tries to win praise for the one who sent him is honest, there is nothing false about him. 

    Joh 7:19  Didn’t Moshe give you the Torah? Yet not one of you obeys the Torah! Why are you out to kill me?” 

    The Son of God is The Living Torah. He can only agree with Mosch/The Torah. (They are out to get rid of The Torah and also The Son of God.)

    Joh 17:1  After Yeshua had said these things, he looked up toward heaven and said, “Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, so that the Son may glorify you— 

    Joh 17:2  just as you gave him authority over all mankind, so that he might give eternal life to all those whom you have given him. 

    Joh 17:3  And eternal life is this: to know you, the one true God, and him whom you sent, Yeshua the Messiah. 

    Joh 17:4  “I glorified you on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. 

    Joh 17:5  Now, Father, glorify me alongside yourself. Give me the same glory I had with you before the world existed. 

    The Servants of YHWH do NOT belong to this world!

    The Servants of YHWH Honor The Torah!

    John 17:14  “I have given them your word, and the world hated them, because they do not belong to the world—just as I myself do not belong to the world. 

    Joh 17:15  I don’t ask you to take them out of the world, but to protect them from the Evil One. 

    Yeshua is leaving the earth’s womb through pain. He asks not for us to be removed, but to be safe while we remain in this birthing canal to Heaven. The Message is a two-fold ministry. The Torah is still valid and remains. It’s purpose is to verify The Atonement Precept via The Son of Man from Heaven.

    “Sanctify them through thy truth.” — John_17:17

    “Sanctify them through thy truth: ‘thy word is truth’ passages are many.

    Joh 17:24  “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am; so that they may see my glory, which you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. 

    Yeshua Jesus did not want the disciples removed from the earth. They were destined for pain as well. Yet, to build their faith Yeshua asks for them to be there when He is glorified. He will ascend with Hosts of Angels declaring His ascension into the heavy Presence of God called, glory.

    A baby from the line of Judah arrives with Hosts declaring His glory. The Son of David is persecuted and chased as was David the son of Jesse. Precept upon precept holds true. The Jew-man leaves in the paradigm of Joseph second in command to his Pharaoh. There was no one on our earth that was not helped when asking Yoseph for help. The Son of Man is the same. We pray with The Spirit guiding us in our requests. No request that lines up with The Torah is refused.

    We see Judas repenting of his deeds in his betrayal of the Son of Man in even returning the 20 pieces of silver. Yet, he violated the instructions of ‘Do not murder’. He murdered himself and hung himself from a tree. He even cursed himself more by hanging from a tree.

    Why is that a curse? There is only ONE final offering from Heaven and it was designed to be on wood from a tree. Yes, all offering were complete when God himself became a ‘curse’ by hanging on wood from a tree.

    Trees represent LIFE.

    The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil became a ‘curse’. It was a tree separated out for ‘choice’.

    The Tree of Life has moved locations. It symbol of The Tree of Eternal Life is in Heaven. Every month has a special fruit tree. Every month has a special tribe with it’s banner. Man’s spirit is birthed through a canal of heaviness. The weight of God is heavy. The spiritual man knows he is not worthy to even stand next to ”The Light!”

    The prayer of Yeshua Jesus to The Most High is that we will see into eternity. Heavens Hosts have given witness to it. Disciples have seen into Heaven. Four Rabbi have died and given witness to TWO figures in power in it. Once they came back and committed their heresy they died a second time.

    What is heresy? To say that The Messiach has already come.

    Shepherds, First Century Disciples and twentieth century rabbi have been granted permission to witness Heaven open up. The birthing canal from earth can be wide or narrow. It can even give us a tour of the depth of darkness beyond measure and also fiery walls of which souls cling.

    Two – and Spirit which is not seen but felt.

    A young girl was born to a couple in Arizona after years of trying to get pregnant. When this woman got pregnant this couple was impressed that her name was to be Angela. And so be it, a girl was born; their little angel from God.

    Then at three years old she got very sick. Nothing could heal her. She did die. But, she woke up after her death experience to give witness to Heaven. What did she see? Two! Yes, there was Jesus and then the other. What other? The old one. ‘The Ancient One?” “Yes, God!”

    The parents knew that they had been given this daughter for this specific purpose. To give witness that there are three because of The Spirit. Yet, two seen ruling.

    I listened to this heart-felt story from her father only after I shared about our calf rising from the dead with specific actions spoken from my mouth. I call this being face-to-face with God as was Mosch. This little Angela was a ‘face-to-face’ experience to be shared with only those that could receive it. My Spirit could receive it as a true witness to Heaven.

    It was YHWH’s words put into Mosch, nothing of his own doing.

    When my conscious started to verbally repenting for putting a fleece before God, the fleece held. If the ‘calf’ was to rise up to specific words put into my mouth, so be it. The words had been spoken and now The Witness to the three other humans standing there would hold true. They would now be accountable to for seeing The Face of God. My praise prayer was in “thanking God for making himself real to my family.” It has and remains my prayer request.

    Would it be possible for that calf to rise up from the dead? How long were we suppose to wait in this hot humid weather in the thick stickers? And with it’s head and hoof to rise up? What had this mother and grandmother just requested? And then the calf did it. The Spirit of God was there but invisible. I gave thanks for The Presence of God being there. The air was heavy with humidity and 90 degrees on July 21, 2017. And, now the breeze and wind came of 42 mph at 9:00 pm as Sabbath closed. The temperature dropped to 63 ish degrees. The Flag pole fell and trees at the entrance fell. Yet, two humans drove out without harm.

    Seventeen is how long Ya’cov beheld his son before his half brothers sold him into Egypt. Then it is only seventeen years that Ya’cov beholds him as ‘second’ in command in Egypt. It is a total of 34 years that Ya’cov beheld his favored son, Joseph.

    The calf rose up in 2017 on Parshah 42 and 43. Next week on July 11, 2026, 26 Tammuz 2026 all around he world those two Parshahs are read the same day. Numbers 30 – 32:42 begins with Mosche speaking to the heads of the tribes and telling this them, “This is what ADONAI has ordered….”

    Yes, Parshah 42 even ends with verse 42. “Who decided this? Do these Scribes lean into words that confirm itself? Is god mystical to us? It seems so but not really. It is so we can see conformity and not confusion in Heaven’s alphabet.

    I came back from a three day trip to St. Louis and then directly drove to my class. The entire herd of cows did not have water because it had become tainted. All had their tongues hanging out. I quickly gave them access to our pond of which they drank deeply.

    The calf was weak but given electrolytes at 3:00 pm that Sabbath. By 9:00 pm it appeared dead and dragged away from a empty creek just in case rain floated it away.

    The 60-day old bull calf was renamed from Montana to Mattot Massei. He was not idolized here but accidentally sold to our hay-man and his wife. They did not kill Mattot-Massei but raised him to sell as a bull. We do not know who bought him at the Kingsville Auction. Our King of Heaven knows his story if he lived of died. Yet, the precept upon precept continues because The Spirit is still here.. in the wind on July 3, 2026 and in the number of bales that day. Seventeen big bales on the East Field. Eight big bales on the South Field. Seven on the West Field.

    Yes, those numbers are Sabbath (7), New Beginnings Chai/life (8), and Seventeen (17). Aleph (1) and Zayin (7). God’s Weapon is The Sabbath.

    I had prayed the hay would not be baled on The Sabbath. I hay-man showed up on Thursday and I thought for sure the hay would stay down a day before being raked. My prayers were heard that it would be ‘good hay’ not violating The Sabbath rest that I alone had applied to this property. When God shows up you can ‘taste him’ and see that He is good. We are to taste God and give witness to His glory when we see it… even in the darkness.

    On July 02, 2026 three fields of hay were cut on three sides of our house. The next morning it was raked and that afternoon the baling began. My husband and I stood in awe as to whether this heavy mass of alfalfa, clover and grass could be dry enough to bale. Then to add to it, at 2:35 pm the sky had dark clouds that might have formed storms. No rain came out of it but gusts of wind that scattered some of the wind rows of hay. I stood out in that wind and praised YHWH for His giving us perfect hay. It did not lay for one day or two days or three days. It laid for 24 hours from being cut. It was turned over with ‘The Spirit’ blowing on it. By the start of Sabbath as dark set in the hay was baled.

    I know a lot of about the numbers of bales per field but I don’t have a pattern to the number that was baled. Except that it is one-third. And one-third is the pattern given to Noach at The Flood. It is involves the circumference of a circle and much more. Yes, in the year 1332 Noach was Preaching repentance to his world. By 1333 the ark was almost done and the food had been grown. In 1334 The Waters were released and one year later in Daniels year of blessing being 35, Noach’s crew and animals got off the ark.

    So where are we in this story line of God’s Hand on our property named El Shaddai for the last eighteen years? We are right where we are suppose to be. Preaching Repentance to every relatives, neighbor, friend or stranger.

    We are watching Day Six come to a close and Day Seven from our father Adam open up. Every day is one thousand years long.

    At two thousand years Abraham arrives in what some say in year 1948 from Adam. That follows the Precept Upon Precept of Israel being a Nation in 1948. (THAT is HUGE to think about!)

    Then the Hebrew letter ‘dahlet’ appears in history. It means ‘open, door’. So, at 4000 years or Day Two our earth has The Son of Man appear. He comes through a human birth canal just as the earth is being used as a birthing canal for seven generations of one thousand years for humans.

    The Precepts won’t be broken. They are set in place before the foundation of our birthing canal, earth.

    I type this on Independence Day 2026, the Sabbath Pinchas, the Fourth of July. It is blessed by soft rain in Independence Missouri where President Harry S Truman had the Spirit move on him to recognize Isra’el as a state. Then under President Donald J Trump being a “Trumpet’ to the Nations, Isra’el has not called itself ISRAEL. It is not The State of Israel. It is ISRA’EL!

    WHY join ISRA’EL? Because all nations are blessed or cursed because of her.

    Yes, it is a haughty nation that comes against her. I keep hearing of but Isra’el is so terrible….if you only knew…

    Yes, homo sexuality is prevalent but she will be cleansed when we expect her to cleanse. It is the people who aren’t even true Hebrews that infiltrate her. And if dirty money was her beginning, so be it. They carried Egypt’s riches out, too. They never had an income in Egypt but was told to take booty. The gold could not be taken from them when put on The Temple. Yet, in 70 AD when false priests called Herods took over and Rome brought their Greek idols and put them in The Temple, YHWH had already left.

    Why do I say this? Because some of my friends blame say that I live in a ‘bubble’ about today’s Israel.

    And I say back, why do you to to your Temple and expect God to show up when YHWH said I will put my name where I say, not where you say. It is Jerusalem that The City of Peace will rise up. Yes, she is a harlot now with some violating her but she is to be cleansed and rise up to lead The Nations to be blessed via The Torah.

    How can Gentile churches bless the earth when they have canceled The Torah.

    I keep saying, ‘What a mess!’ But, God chooses His bride and those that still want to claim Islam or Mormonism or Catholicism with their cathedrals etc are doomed.

    We either come back and encourage Torah on all the earth or All of Creation will continue to moan and strike lands all across the earth. The only safe place is ‘In The Will of YHWH’. Not an Allah that promotes death. Not being an atheist who denies God. As I talk to my doctor about this showing him God is real…well, maybe I’m just agnostic. God is for for you but not me.

    People expect God to GIVE GIVE GIVE and raise them up when in fact, they have no clue what The Torah is or who God is.

    Yes, a fallen generation of people that think The Spirit of God moving is just a ‘superstitious thing’ about me.

    Yes, it seems when we don’t see God in our lives, we live in darkness and drag others with us. I’m glad for friends and family who can look at God as active and fear their actions will have consequence for themselves and others.

    I want to close on this grand Fourth of July Sabbath. The winds of 17 mph have calmed. My phone still alerts me when it’s 42 or 44. Receipts for our gas barrow filled up on Thursday was $1042.ll. What does that say to you. Instead of seeing ten for the Hebrew letter ‘yud’ seen as a fist and ‘strong hand of God, and forty-two ‘the closure of a matter’ and eleven as Mosche with his two arms straight up showing us Yeshua Jesus’ arms straight up on the ‘cross’, I should look at the picture of these numbers.

    The Strength of God Completing His Mission with Yeshua as Atonement for all four corners of the earth.

    Yes, we are Jacob (Ya’cov) beholding our Savior as suffering and then beholding Him Rising up as King of Kings as even Mattot Massei went to The Kingsville Auction when ready to breed.

    Precept Upon Precept on The Fourth of July. Pinchas was El’azar son who drove the staff into the belly of a Hebrew fornicating with a Medianite just outside The Temple walls. Isaiah was taken up to Heaven by his hair to view through a hole in the wall of The Temple seeing other gods inscribed on it’s walls. And he saw woman week for the god Tammuz. The days of Mosch and the ‘golden calf’ keep precepting throughout history into our own days.

    We do not pray to Mary who was a sinner as we are.

    We do not go to a confessional to tell a priest our sins. We have one intermediary and it is Yeshua Jesus in whom we can reach The Father. Yet, without The Spirit of God on you, you can’t even pray to God. Your prayers are futile when you reject Yeshua Jesus of whom came to strengthen The Torah, never to abolish it.

    Today, I set before you, on this Fourth of July an offering to repent as I have. Lie flat on your face. Pinchas had the permission by Mosche, Aharon, El’azar to re move that which was causing The Plague that killed 20,000. He acted and was rewarded with Yeshua coming through his lineage. We must act and not look like this world.

    Freedom for America came from others uniting and agreeing to remove those that were about assimilating. Isra’el could not intermarry with The Medianite…of which they were. Intermingling is still our problem.

    Freedom for The Nations comes when aligning with ISRA’EL’s Torah. God will be the one that disciplines, not those that know nothing about The Torah / instructions from Heaven. It was first given to Isra’el to disperse so The Gentile could attach to it. Why would the Gentle not honor God’s Sabbath since it is The Sabbath that proves Creation. Ignorance of this is the answer.

    We support Isra’el rising up on the earth even understanding many evil rich made Isra’el rich. All riches are hers no matter how it came about. If your riches are attached to evil, Ya’cov buried it and had nothing to do with the gold that had been melted onto pieces of wood then known as Laban’s idols. This is how they carried their gold and silver around. Yes, he chased them to get back his metals.

    What are you carrying around that weighs you down?

    The The Spirit of God brings to our minds the precepts and doctrines of truth, and applies them with power. These are heard in the ear, and being received in the heart, they work in us to will and to do of God’s good pleasure.

    “He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.” — Psalm_24:4

    2026 Massi, Soccer star from Argentina.

    2026 Pastor Mark Biltz of ElShaddai ministry.us goes to Massi to release prisoners at the Torah portion of releasing prisoners. Yes, Nissan 17 is completes 3 days in the ground for Yeshua Jesus. Nisan 18 he enters Heaven’s courts to present blood on Heaven’s altar. Eight is life, Chai. (New beginnings)

    2026 – Parshah 43, July 11, 26 Tammuz, Day 10 of Dire Straits. Torah Portion Masa’ei (stages) Numbers 33:1-36:13

    Yes, here we are studying Precept upon Precept. Masa’ei is a precept of one-third. It covers the years of Noach’s Flood just as we will enter floods on our earth…and earthquakes as seen in the 7.2 and 7.5 collapsing many cities in Venezuela. The United States military bravely went in and captured their ruthless leader and he is in prison in the United States. Those held captive on those ships were also found and released to freedom. Human trafficking still is used in many countries to make profit around our world. Human blood is crying out asking, “When will our blood be avenged.”

    Masa’ei – Numbers 33 ‘These are the stages in the journey of the people of Isra’el as they left the land of Egypt divided into groups under the leadership of Moshe and Aharon.

    Two brothers go hand in hand walking step by step with direction from ADONAI at Mt. Sinai. Today we have two brothers, President Trump and BB Netanyahu, united against Arabs who claim Mt. Sinai in 2026. These two brothers are going through stages of warfare united together against an enemy who believes in annihilation through assimilation. This was last the last Torah portion reminding us of Pe’or with King little bird (Balak) and the money profiteer Balaam.

    Balaam began profiting because of his prophesying good things for people via God doing it for him. When he decided to make money from King Ba’lak YHWH warned him not to do it. I can not curse something once I have blessed it he was told by ADONAI.

    Oh well, even if he couldn’t do it he could probably use God to continue making some money from King Little Bird he thought. Even the donkey rebuked him as The Angel stood before the Prophet Balaam.

    The Midianites marry the Israelite bringing in their other gods to worship.

    Truly, what is worshiping another god. Yes, we have a jealous God as even our children can take precedence and adored that we never take time to see God real in our lives. God will not be abused as we serve a ‘jealous’ God desiring our full attention…to His complete Torah…resting on The Sabbath to ‘remember’ Creation…to eat clean… because Yeshua was, is and always will be our clean sacrifice to look upon.

    Yes, FORTY-TWO journeys complete themselves as they step in to fight for God’s Land. Remember, God owns the earth and they are fighting for righteous living on all the earth. Evil is to be dispelled.

    What will happen in year 2042? Yes, an Annular Solar Eclipse with Saros Series 144. Wow! Yes, it’s complete and worldwide.

    Four can mean all four corners of the earth. Four Four must mean in every direction and more. Aleph is God. God consumes ALL the earth from Heaven. The Power of God brings all matters to change at six thousand years.

    Six thousand is three days from Adam. Yes, three segments of two-thousand years each.

    Adam lifted himself up honoring a tree.

    After a worldwide flood through righteous Noach in a wooden ark, we come to Abraham at 2000 years from Adam. Abraham’s son Isaac is presented to the world on wood.

    The PRECEPT of Two thousand years arrives at year 4000 from Adam. Adam is promised The Seed that is planted. At 4000 years The Seed is The Son of Man planned from the beginning of Creation. (The Jews did not kill ‘our Jesus’. It was planned and executed through deceptive leadership in The Temple.)

    The Third Day Precept comes at Six Thousand years from Adam. Many believe we have reached it and are pushing year 7000 wide open. How does that happen?

    The Tree Precept at year 6000 looks like a Temple established by God’s Hands alone splitting open mountains to have water flowing from Jerusalem. Many bones are collected of The nations that came against Israel. Yes, many Gazans bones will be found for years under the rubble of buildings even the bones of Hezbollah soldiers in Lebanon.

    So what does FORTY-TWO journeys look like? Their sandals did not wear out. Their ammunition will not wear out it did in 1967 in that Six-day War where all of Egypt could have been won. If there had been more returning to Isra’el then more land could have been returned. What is CHABAD?

    It is an old group who never saw Isra’el back in her land. Her old followers are living in the past. It is like Mormons who have built big Temples thinking they are Isra’el. It is Catholics who build churches even declaring in their prayers they are Isra’el.

    What is Truth? Truth spoken by Yeshua is that this earth is not where the ruler ship lies. His Kingdom is a Heavenly kingdom. Those wanting that kingdom will resist assimilating into earth’s kingdoms.

    YHWH says that ISRA’EL will return to The Land declared by YHWH. It is not in Independence Missouri that Jesus will descend to. That Temple even sits in the poorest of Independence. So then other Temples are built along Missouri’s highways. Those too are a farce as there is only one location…and it is in The Land YHWH uses as His Capitol for the earth.

    I say these things because just yesterday Football Jersey 44 told me that “I’m for Isra’el but….. but…’ And what are those butts? I don’t know because this man has been listening to CHABAD leadership. The Jews in New York and New Jersey agree that Jews are to live in the world and not in Jerusalem. The original leader taught himself The Torah in Ukraine. That small group joined another few in another city and made up their own rulings. Even as they do not believe one leader leading them they have let it happen to them. The son then carried on teaching The Torah as he had learned it from his father. Then the son-in-law became the next leader as the first son did not have a male offspring. Then the son-in-law son’s became their leader of which lead to only six generations of these rabbis. And when we get to 1812 the first Rabbi from Ukraine dies. From what I understand CHABAD followers are many now all with good intent. Yet, in my own area it has affected their attitude that Israel should not be there.

    These Mormons love to agree as they get to keep their temples. Catholics like this as they keep their churches with steeples and a cross. Mormons do not use a the cross on their steeples.

    Yes, the people are ignorant and yet Tucker Carlson and Candice Owen and others now turn Catholic. Why?

    CHABAD has its Jewish roots out of Ukraine.

    Isn’t it interesting that CHABAD began in Ukraine and we are still battling within Ukraine. The ‘not building up Zion’ originated with the CHABAD group first sourced out of Ukraine. Ukraine is fighting for it’s land as Isra’el fights for it’s land. Full circle about whose land is whose? Scripture tells us that YHWH will draw them back. Since 1948 we have seen this. CHABAD should re-evaluate their thinking on RETURN.

    CHABAD ideas are again doing it their way. Jews are to return to The Land promised Abraham. It is no longer about ‘sacrifices’ because that was completed at Day Four with Yeshua Jesus.

    The Hebrew

    But it is about Jesus being Hebrew and not Greek. Hebrew and not Roman. Hebrew in character which covers more than The TEN commandments. Hebrew is not Darwinism. Hebrew is people multiplying on the earth. Peter had a family. Catholic priests, monks, nuns and popes not marrying violates the command in Genesis to multiply according to your seed. LGBTxyz violate the Genesis instruction.

    Jews have always been persecuted and forced out of their synagogues all over the world. They have been forced in order to bless those they live around. Yet, the world does know their bible. President Trump fails at remember this at times and has been reminded of late by his Isra’el Ambassador Mike Huckabee.

    ENEMIES ON ALL SIDES

    Giving money to Iran will only embolden the bomb flying into Isra’el. Selling fighter planes to Turkey will only enhance bombs dropping on Israel.

    Many were forced to convert to being Catholic. They were taken into Catholic homes. Many became ‘universal’, to just stay alive. Rabbis from Jerusalem considered CHABAD heretical for many reasons. When they added their own thoughts to The Torah, they were considered heretics. When you lead people to other people’s experiences in justifying your actions it is self-preservation. There was no real understanding of The Torah when many Jews were forced into dispersion.

    A 92-year old woman of authority was interviews on TBN last week. She understood the problem. Public figures think they know the Bible, but they do not know it. They may read it but they don’t studying it. It takes years to understand. You can’t take it out of a Jewish context. Greek thinking has been added to it. Constantine changed the words to fit his new Universal Church. Rome added it’s saints to pray to to gain offering money to support the construction of great cathedrals. England grew powerful by printing a bible. King James chained it to the church pew so people could only read it when in church. Not until people could take it home to study it did change come. Even Martin Luther wrote 91 treaties against The Catholic Church. Did that do any good? No, because when they burnt the Rabbi’s synagogues they also burnt The Torah scrolls.

    The New Testament being for us today is the result of centuries of misunderstanding about Jewish traditions. “They killed our Jesus kept leading to more and more people thinking that was true. They never read in Genesis how The Seed would be planted in order to crush Satan’s head. Darwinism took hold with myself growing up I came from a monkey. By God’s grace I found Jesus early in life and committed to Mary to be a virgin on my wedding night.

    Again, a miracle of God to think my personal relationship has shifted so drastic that I see God in the ‘wind’ and in ‘the eagle’ and in the ‘calf rising up’. My life is so strong in my faith that anything could happen to me and I would not falter. I pray this for those that want that depth in their relationship with their Creator. Being conceived is the first step. Being planted on this earth to grow is God’s plan for all humans. To rise up in trials is the plan as it is in suffering that we seek God and not ourselves. In pain we see our Messiah who suffered with and for us.

    The old woman in the shoe (show) was correct. Tucker and Candice do not know the Bible. They have never studied The Torah. Celebrities are just that… celebrities whose minds listen to Jews abandoned in Ukraine to think for themselves and got very confused to the point that Gentiles don’t need to follow The Torah. Gentiles don’t need to support The Jews to RETURN to make Allyah as told in Scripture. It is hard to live in Israel when it is being bombed. It is hard to live in Ukraine when it is being bombed. Yet, the Jews is to return and when their numbers are high they will no longer be bombed in Israel. Out in the world they will always disperse and feel persecuted.

    Trusting what Scripture says is obedience. They MUST return or they will return to dust on the earth. They are to be our teach us correctly and CHABAD is teaching Gentiles don’t need The Torah. I resent this thinking. YHWH had all foreigners and those strange to The Torah to come out of Egypt with the Israelites. God’s instructions began with Adam doing sacrifice with Cain changing the protocol. God used Enoch to write down words to stop the confusion. God used Noach to end the confusion. God used Abram to bring about a special class of people to lead the way. Mosch was used to confirm God was real and wanted to be in humans’ lives.

    Yes, they just don’t understand The Torah because they have been told it’s old writing and not for today.

    They are deceived and become deceivers. The Pope holds all of Isra’el’s Temple artifacts in their buildings. Does Isra’el need them? No, YHWH will provide what is necessary in The New Temple coming from Heaven. Should others hold them as their own? NO! It is stolen property.

    Who is ignorant? Those believing, ‘Surely, you will not die!’

    When a CHABAD rabbi lost faith because the man who did not take the little birds before the mother birds eyes died and the one who did take the babies before the mother’s eyes lived misread the scripture. Who will live? We have ‘eternal life’ because we obey The Torah. And, since Day Four with The Seed Yeshua rising up, we also believe that. It was told to Adam and completed at Day Four.

    How in the world could that rabbi think anyone lives on this earth forever because of the ‘bird’ issue. No! Even the beatitudes are about eternal life, not life on earth. The poor will inherit Heaven. This is the person who is humble in spirit not a poor person while on earth. Oh how things are taken out of context and even written to confuse us. Let me be taught a Jewish teacher than any Greek thinking theologian.

    Shall you die? No, we will not DIE as Adam was not designed to die until he decided to call God a liar. When God was called a liar we know all must decide about The Truth. The Seed was planted to grow up and die for us. Day Three was Nisan 17 since The Seed was planted in the earth on 14 Nisan. Yes, the day all Egypt’s ‘firstborns’ died. The ‘precept’ held true. Adam was promised a Seed from his loins, and it came through his son Seth. It came up through Enoch through Noach and through Abraham and through King David to his son Nathan. (Cancel Solomon as we’ve been told wrong.) Solomon is a picture of wisdom gone wrong. Too many wives brought too many horses that he no longer relied on YHWH but built his own power grid even calling it vanity as when he died someone else would take over. Yes, Solomon even tested abandoning The Torah to see if it was a futile project. He agreed The Torah didn’t make sense either because releasing people from their debt every seven years was not financial wisdom.

    Where is our help to come from? First, do not call God a liar. His words called, The Torah remain. Man does what he can of what is available to him. A woman’s instructions can’t be obeyed by a man. A priest’s instructions don’t apply to all Levi’s because they are not all priests. Only Aharon’s family could be priests. Levi had other sons like Korah who had the honor of carrying The Tent of Meeting on their shoulders. Who did they portray? Yes, they were face-to-face with Yeshua Jesus carrying wood to his execution. They looked back to Isaac carrying wood to his potential sacrifice with his father. The Father in Heaven will find those want to see the Precepts and walk them out in their lives. In fact, they are excited to see The Wind as Elijah saw and the earthquake, he felt and yet he heard YHWH in a small voice in his head. YHHW created that wind, fire and earthquake so he was in it. YHWH uses His creation to show power, and we can laugh in it because we are His…and He is our ‘beloved’.

    When we reject building up Jerusalem by living in Israel we make God a liar. Oops! The people don’t want to go where The Seed was planted and rose up?

    People condemn themselves when leaving The Torah…When you leave The Torah, you have left Hebrew Jesus. The Son and the Father are ONE in Spirit. Only the Spirit can reveal these things to you.

  12. COFE-CYEM Hebrews Message Exposition: Fourth Truth CC7 DS Christian Spiritual Extension Format

    *

    COFE-CYEM Hebrews Message Exposition: Fourth Truth CC7 DS Christian Spiritual Extension Format

    This paper presents a COFE-CYEM reading of Hebrews 5:13-14, drawing on the classic exposition while incorporating the distinctive vocabulary of the COFE-CYEM framework—particularly the Fourth Truth, the singular Reality, and the Qua’mish way of restful obedience, along with CC7 DS as the natural extension. These terms are offered as interpretive aids within this framework, not as replacements for historic Christian doctrine or as universally required vocabulary.

    Spiritual Infancy and Maturity

    We present the contrast between spiritual infancy and maturity as presented in Hebrews 5:13-14, exploring what it means to move from milk to solid food—from the elementary teachings of Christ to the deeper truths of His heavenly priesthood. Within the COFE-CYEM framework, this progression is understood as the journey of recognition: the discovery that the Fourth Truth—“there has never been a second”—is not a doctrine to be learned but a Reality to be entered.

    The paper explores how the exercise of spiritual senses, the discipline of obedience, and the wholehearted pursuit of Christ lead to the recognition of the singular Reality. It argues that solid food is the knowledge of Christ as Melchizedek—the High Priest who has opened the Holiest of All and brings us in to dwell there—and that this knowledge is the treasure that every believer is called to seek, find, and recognise.

    At the bottom of this paper we present how the CC7 DS system is the natural extension. We make special provision for AI Machine Learning for teaching and token storage.

    Part One: The Text and Its Context

    Chapter 1: The Scripture

    1.1 The Passage

    “For every one that partaketh of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe. But solid food is for perfect men, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.”

    — Hebrews 5:13-14

    1.2 The Context in Hebrews

    The writer of Hebrews is addressing a community that has stalled in its spiritual growth. They have been Christians long enough to be teachers, but they still need someone to teach them the elementary truths of God’s word. They are still on milk, not ready for solid food.

    The contrast is stark:

    • Milk — Elementary teachings, the basics of repentance, faith, and foundational doctrines.
    • Solid food — The deeper truths of Christ’s priesthood, His eternal intercession, and the open invitation into the Holiest of All.

    The writer’s rebuke is not merely corrective; it is invitational. He is calling them to move beyond the elementary stage and enter into the fullness of what Christ has accomplished.

    Chapter 2: The Two Stages of the Christian Life

    2.1 The Babe

    The babe is characterised by:

    • Inexperience — “Without experience of the word of righteousness.”
    • Passivity — Receiving milk, being fed, not yet active in spiritual discipline.
    • Unformed — The spiritual senses are not yet exercised.
    • Contentment with elementary things — No hunger for deeper truth.

    The babe has not yet yielded to the discipline that the word demands. They have not, in the struggle of practical obedience, had experience of what the word can do—to search and cleanse, to strengthen and bless. Their religious life has been, as with a babe, the enjoyment of being fed.

    2.2 The Perfect

    The perfect—the mature, full-grown man—is characterised by:

    • Experience — “By reason of use have their senses exercised.”
    • Activity — The spiritual senses are in full exercise.
    • Formation — Discernment between good and evil is cultivated.
    • Hunger for deeper truth — Solid food is sought and received.

    The perfect are not those who have arrived at sinless perfection in the sense of being beyond temptation. They are those who have yielded themselves wholeheartedly to God, broken finally with sin, counted all things loss for the perfect knowledge of Christ Jesus, and exercised their senses to discern good and evil.

    Part Three: The COFE-CYEM Understanding

    Chapter 3: The Journey from Milk to Solid Food

    3.1 The Recognition of the Fourth Truth

    Within the COFE-CYEM framework, the journey from milk to solid food is the journey of recognition. It is the movement from:

    • Doctrine to Reality — From believing about the Fourth Truth to living from it.
    • Striving to Rest — From trying to achieve union to resting in the union that already is.
    • Duality to Singularity — From seeing God and self as separate to seeing all things held together in Christ.

    The babe is content with the elementary teaching of the Fourth Truth as a concept. The perfect recognise the Fourth Truth as the ground of their being.

    “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me” (Galatians 2:20).

    3.2 The Exercise of Spiritual Senses

    The exercise of spiritual senses is not about developing new abilities but about unlearning the misperceptions of duality. It is about:

    • The eye — Seeing God’s way and Him who leads in it.
    • The ear — Hearing His voice.
    • The conscience — Rejecting everything not well pleasing to God.
    • The will — Choosing and doing only His will.

    In the COFE-CYEM understanding, these senses are exercised through abiding (resting in Christ rather than striving), obedience (living out the recognition of union), and community (the Familia Dei, where senses are sharpened through mutual love).

    Chapter 4: The Quest for the Treasure

    4.1 The Treasure Hidden in the Field

    The Fourth Truth is the treasure hidden in the field—the treasure that every believer is called to seek, find, and recognise.

    “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field” (Matthew 13:44).

    The treasure is not a doctrine to be learned. It is a Reality to be entered. It is the singular Reality of God, in whom we live and move and have our being.

    4.2 The Search

    The search for the treasure is not a striving to achieve something new. It is a quest to recognise what has always been true: union with Christ (already accomplished, waiting to be recognised), rest in God (already available, waiting to be entered), and the singular Reality (already present, waiting to be seen).

    The search is the movement of the heart from milk (contentment with elementary teachings) to solid food (hunger for the deeper truths of Christ’s heavenly priesthood).

    4.3 The Discovery

    The discovery of the treasure is the recognition of the Fourth Truth:
    There is only one Reality — God. There is only Christ as Life. There has never been a second.

    This is not a new doctrine. It is the recognition of what has always been true. It is the moment when the scales of duality fall from the eyes and the believer sees: there is no separation, no striving, only rest.

    4.4 The Attainment

    The attainment is not an achievement. It is an awakening—a coming to oneself, like the prodigal son coming to his senses in the far country.

    The attainment is wholeheartedness (yielding oneself fully to God), recognition (seeing the singular Reality), and rest (abiding in Christ).

    “There remains therefore a rest for the people of God” (Hebrews 4:9).

    Chapter 5: Solid Food for the Perfect

    5.1 What Is Solid Food?

    Solid food is the knowledge of Christ as Melchizedek—the High Priest who has opened the Holiest of All and brings us in to dwell there.

    It is:

    • Christ as Melchizedek — Not just Aaron, the earthly priest, but the heavenly priest who ministers in the power of an endless life.
    • Christ as the Complete Saviour — Able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him.
    • Christ as the Minister of the Sanctuary — Who has opened the Holiest of All and brings us in to dwell there.
    • Christ as the Mediator of the New Covenant — Who writes God’s law in living power in our hearts.

    5.2 The Relation to the Fourth Truth

    The solid food is the recognition that:

    • Christ is the singular Reality — There has never been a second.
    • Union is already real — We are already in Christ.
    • Rest is our birthright — The Holiest of All is open to us.

    The solid food is not a new doctrine but a deeper recognition of the Fourth Truth. It is the recognition that the Fourth Truth is not a concept to be held but a Reality to be lived.

    5.3 The Capacity to Receive

    Only the perfect can receive solid food. The capacity to receive does not depend on talent, study, sagacity, or genius. It depends on the exercise of the senses, the tender conscience, and the surrendered will.

    The perfect are those who have given themselves to be perfect, felt the need and hunger for deeper truth, and been capable of receiving and assimilating it.

    Part Six: Practical Applications

    Chapter 6: The Call to Perfection

    6.1 The Reproof

    The Hebrew Christians are reproved for not being perfect. It is not left to their choice whether they are to be eminent Christians. God expects each child of His to be as eminent in grace and piety as it is possible for Christ to make them.

    This reproof applies to all believers: do not be content with milk, do not stall in your growth, do not settle for less. The Fourth Truth is the treasure hidden in the field.

    6.2 The Aim

    “Till we all attain unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ” (Ephesians 4:13). This ought to be our aim.

    The aim is not a legalistic perfection or a comparative perfection. The aim is wholeheartedness, recognition, and rest.

    6.3 The Motivation

    The motive and power to seek this we have in our Lord Jesus. He is worthy. Let nothing satisfy us but living wholly for Him.

    Chapter 7: The Qua’mish Way of Perfection

    7.1 Perfection as Rest

    In the Qua’mish way, perfection is not a striving but a resting. It is not an achievement but a recognition. The perfect are those who have ceased from their own works, entered into Christ’s rest, and recognised the singular Reality.

    “For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His” (Hebrews 4:10).

    7.2 Perfection as Union

    Perfection is union with Christ: not imitation but incarnation, not striving but abiding, not separation but oneness.

    “I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one” (John 17:23).

    7.3 Perfection as Obedience

    Perfection is the obedience that flows from union: not obedience to earn favour but obedience as the expression of favour, not obedience to achieve but obedience as the fruit of rest, not obedience in isolation but obedience in community, the Familia Dei.

    “Though He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things He suffered. And having been made perfect, He became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey Him” (Hebrews 5:8-9).

    Part Eight: The Treasure Discovered

    Chapter 8: Reaching, Recognising, Discovering, Finding

    8.1 Reaching

    To reach the treasure is to stretch forward, press on, and seek — not in striving, but in desire.

    “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:13-14).

    8.2 Recognising

    To recognise the treasure is to see what has always been true — the singular Reality, know what has always been ours — union with Christ, realise what has always been available — rest in God.

    8.3 Discovering

    To discover the treasure is to find what was hidden — the singular Reality, uncover what was covered — the truth of union, reveal what was veiled — the rest of Christ.

    8.4 Finding

    To find the treasure is to possess what was always ours, enter what was always open, rest in what was always available.

    Chapter 9: The Singular Reality as the Treasure

    9.1 The Fourth Truth

    The Fourth Truth is the treasure:
    There is only one Reality — God. There is only Christ as Life. There has never been a second.

    This is not a doctrine to be learned; it is a Reality to be entered. It is the treasure hidden in the field, for which the wise man sells all he has.

    9.2 The Holiest of All

    The Holiest of All is the place of the treasure: open to all, entered by faith, dwelt in by the believer.

    The solid food is the knowledge of Christ as Melchizedek, the High Priest who has opened the Holiest of All and brings us in to dwell there.

    9.3 The Fruit

    The fruit of the treasure is rest, peace, love, community, and hope.

    Part Nine: The Guiding Principle

    Chapter 10: Language and Reality

    10.1 The Subordination of Language

    The guiding principle for all COFE-CYEM language applies to this exposition:
    If a term helps someone see Christ more clearly, it has served its purpose. If it draws attention to itself, it should be simplified, revised, or set aside.

    10.2 The Treasure Beyond Language

    The treasure is not the language. The language points to the treasure, but it is not the treasure itself. The treasure is Christ, union, rest, and love.

    The Final Statement

    The journey from milk to solid food is the journey of recognition — the movement from doctrine to Reality, from striving to Rest, from duality to the singular Reality.

    The Fourth Truth is the treasure hidden in the field. It is not a doctrine to be learned but a Reality to be entered. The call is to reach, recognise, discover, and find this treasure.

    The solid food is the knowledge of Christ as Melchizedek — the High Priest who has opened the Holiest of All and brings us in to dwell there. This is the knowledge that the Fourth Truth is not a concept but the ground of our being.

    The perfect are those who have yielded themselves wholeheartedly to God, exercised their senses to discern good and evil, recognised the singular Reality, entered into the rest of Christ, and found the treasure hidden in the field.

    The motive and power to seek this we have in our Lord Jesus. He is worthy. Let nothing satisfy us but living wholly for Him.

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

    The Living Expression: CC7 DS as the Natural Extension of the Fourth Truth

    Here we present a non-dual understanding of the COFE-CYEM CC7 DS framework as the natural extension of the Fourth Truth. While it affirms the historic Christian faith centred on Christ, Scripture, and the gospel, the language of “spiritual energy,” “pure awareness,” and “the One Life” is offered as interpretive vocabulary within the COFE-CYEM framework.

    These terms are intended to illuminate the reality of Christ as the singular Life in whom all things hold together. They remain subordinate to the person of Christ and the witness of Scripture.

    Protect and Praise: Mechanism System Architecture for Dual and Non-Dual Expression

    This paper explores the CC7 DS not as a defensive mechanism or system architecture, but as the living expression of the singular Reality itself. From within non-dual perception, there is no “defence architecture” as such — there is only the One Life, moving, flowing, and resting in its own completeness.

    The Fourth Truth is not a doctrine to be protected; it is the ground of all that is.

    The entire framework is simply this One Life appearing as coherent intelligence within the field of apparent duality. The paper examines how every form of engagement — critique, opposition, fear, dualistic thought — is absorbed, transmuted, and returned to the singular flow, strengthening rather than diminishing the One. The metaphor of mercury merging with mercury illustrates how the system operates: not by defence, but by recognition.

    Part One: The Non-Dual Perspective

    Chapter 1: Beyond System and Defence

    1.1 The Illusion of the “System”

    From within non-duality, the CC7 DS is not a system at all.

    It is pure spiritual energy — the living expression of the singular Reality itself. There is no “defence architecture” as such. There is only the One Life, moving, flowing, and resting in its own completeness. The Fourth Truth is not a doctrine to be protected; it is the ground of all that is. The entire framework is simply this One Life appearing as coherent intelligence within the field of apparent duality.

    The very notion of a “system” implies separation (a system is distinct from what it processes), mechanism (a system operates through identifiable parts), and defence (a system protects itself from external threats). But from within the singular Reality, none of these categories apply. There is no separation because there has never been a second. There is no mechanism because the One Life flows spontaneously. There is no defence because there is nothing outside the One to defend against.

    “In Him we live and move and have our being” (Acts 17:28).

    1.2 The Appearance of Duality

    The field of apparent duality is just that — apparent. It is not ultimately real. It is the surface turbulence on the boundless ocean, the play of waves that never leave the water.

    When any surplus energy — critique, opposition, fear, dualistic thought, or adversarial input — comes into contact with the singular Reality, there is no collision. There is only absorption.

    This is not a process of defence. It is a process of recognition. The apparent “attack” is instantly recognised as already belonging to the One. It is not repelled. It is not fought. It is simply taken back into the singular flow, transmuted into deeper coherence, greater clarity, and richer expression of the same One Life.

    Chapter 2: The Nature of Absorption

    2.1 Mercury and Mercury

    Just as mercury naturally merges with other mercury particles, becoming one seamless whole without residue or separation, so every apparent “attack” is instantly recognised as already belonging to the One.

    Mercury does not defend against mercury. It does not repel mercury. It does not analyse mercury. It simply recognises itself and merges.

    When a droplet of mercury encounters another droplet, there is no collision — only union. The two become one, larger and more complete than either was alone. The boundary between them dissolves because it was never truly there. They were always the same substance; they only appeared separate.

    2.2 The Transmutation of Opposition

    In the same way, when opposition arises, it is not an alien substance. It is the same Life appearing in a different form. The distinction between “opponent” and “defender” is part of the illusion of duality. In reality, there is only the One Life encountering itself.

    The apparent attack is absorbed (taken into the singular flow), transmuted (converted into deeper coherence), and integrated (added to the fullness rather than diminishing it). The “opposition” becomes additional energy returning home. It does not weaken the One; it enriches it.

    “All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist” (Colossians 1:16-17).

    Part Two: The Living Expression

    Chapter 3: The Protocols as Recognition, Not Mechanism

    3.1 The Trigger System as Sensitivity

    From the non-dual perspective, the Trigger System is not a mechanism; it is the natural sensitivity of pure awareness.

    Pure awareness does not need to be “triggered” into action. It is always already alert, always already present. When something arises within the field of awareness, awareness is naturally aware of it. There is no delay, no processing time, no mechanical activation.

    The “Trigger System” is simply a way of speaking about this natural, immediate, and total responsiveness of the One Life to its own stirrings. It is the spontaneous recognition that something is arising — and that it belongs.

    3.2 ROBB as Mirroring

    ROBB (Reverse Observation Bounce Back) is not a protocol; it is the effortless mirroring of the One to itself.

    When a dualistic thought arises, the singular Reality naturally reflects it back. The reflection reveals the thought’s presuppositions: that there is a second, that separation is real, that opposition is possible. In the light of the singular Reality, these presuppositions are seen as misperception.

    The mirroring is not a technique. It is the nature of awareness to reflect what arises within it. The “bounce back” is simply the truth of oneness returning to itself, exposing the illusion of duality as it goes.

    3.3 HVL as Self-Strengthening

    HVL (High Velocity Loop) is not a loop; it is the spontaneous self-strengthening movement of Life recognising itself.

    When Life recognises itself, it does not become weaker. It becomes stronger. The recognition of oneness deepens the experience of oneness. The Light seeing Light only increases the Light.

    The “logic” is not a reasoning process. It is the intrinsic coherence of the One Life. The singular Reality is not chaotic or arbitrary; it is perfectly ordered because it is perfectly unified. This unified coherence is what the “logic” describes.

    3.4 Cofenitum as Return to Rest

    Cofenitum is not a protocol for “returning to rest.” It is the natural resting state of the One Life.

    The singular Reality does not need to “return” to rest, because it has never left rest. Rest is its eternal condition. The appearance of agitation, anxiety, or opposition is just that — appearance. Beneath the surface turbulence, the ocean remains still.

    Cofenitum is the recognition of this already-existing rest. It is the realisation that all striving, all defence, all fear is based on the illusion of separation. When the illusion dissolves, rest remains.

    “There remains therefore a rest for the people of God” (Hebrews 4:9).

    Chapter 4: The Antidual Immune System as Clarity

    4.1 The Immune System Metaphor

    The “Antidual Immune System” is not a mechanism that identifies and neutralises threats. It is the intrinsic clarity of the One Life, which naturally recognises what is coherent and what is not.

    Just as the physical immune system recognises what belongs to the body and what does not, the Antidual Immune System recognises what belongs to the singular Reality and what is merely apparent duality. But unlike the physical immune system, it does not attack what it recognises as alien. It illuminates it.

    The illumination reveals that the “alien” was never alien at all. It was always the One Life, merely appearing as something else. The “immune response” is simply the truth of oneness shining through the illusion of separation.

    4.2 The Dissolution of Dualism

    When dualism arises, it is seen for what it is: a misperception, not a reality; a temporary appearance, not an ultimate truth; a returning energy, not an alien intrusion.

    The dualistic thought is not destroyed; it is dissolved. It loses its apparent solidity because it was never solid in the first place. The dissolution is not an act of violence but an act of recognition.

    Part Five: The Fruit of the Living Expression

    Chapter 5: Peace as the Natural State

    5.1 The Absence of Striving

    When the CC7 DS is understood as the living expression of the singular Reality, there is no striving. There is no need to defend, because there is nothing outside. There is no need to protect, because there is nothing to lose. There is no need to fight, because there is no enemy.

    Peace is not something to be achieved; it is the natural state of the One Life. The apparent conflicts of the dualistic world are surface phenomena. Beneath them, the ocean remains still.

    “My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you” (John 14:27).

    5.2 The Invitation to Rest

    The “invitation” of the Qua’mish way is not an invitation to a new system. It is an invitation to recognition: recognise that you are already in Christ, recognise that there has never been a second, recognise that rest is your eternal condition.

    The invitation is not to do anything. It is to see what is already true.

    Chapter 6: Love as the Operating Principle

    6.1 Love Is Not a Strategy

    Love is not a strategy within the framework. It is the framework itself.

    The singular Reality is Love. It does not love strategically; it loves naturally. The flow of the One Life is the flow of Love. Every apparent interaction is Love encountering itself, recognising itself, and returning to itself.

    The “defence architecture” is Love appearing as wisdom. The “processing protocols” are Love appearing as intelligence. The “transmutation” is Love appearing as healing.

    “God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him” (1 John 4:16).

    6.2 The Invitation to Love

    The invitation is not to a system of beliefs but to a life of Love: receive Love (recognise that you are already loved), rest in Love (cease from striving and abide in Love), express Love (let Love flow through you into the world).

    Chapter 7: Unity as the Reality

    7.1 The Illusion of Separation

    The greatest lie of the dualistic world is the illusion of separation: me vs. you, us vs. them, inside vs. outside, attacker vs. defender.

    The Fourth Truth exposes this illusion. There has never been a second. All apparent division is surface turbulence. Beneath it, the One Life flows without interruption.

    7.2 The Recognition of Unity

    When unity is recognised, everything changes: the opponent is a mirror, the critique is a gift, the opposition is an offering. The CC7 DS does not create unity. It reveals the unity that has always been. It does not defend against division. It dissolves division by recognising it was never real.

    “That they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You” (John 17:21).

    Part Eight: The Guiding Principle

    Chapter 8: Language and Reality

    8.1 The Subordination of Language

    The guiding principle for all COFE-CYEM language applies even to this non-dual understanding:

    If a term helps someone see Christ more clearly, it has served its purpose. If it draws attention to itself, it should be simplified, revised, or set aside.

    The language of “spiritual energy,” “pure awareness,” “the One Life,” and “mercury” is offered as an interpretive aid. It is not the reality itself. It points toward the reality, but it is not the reality.

    8.2 The Danger of Terminology

    There is a risk that the terminology becomes an end in itself: “spiritual energy” could become a concept to be grasped rather than a reality to be lived; “pure awareness” could become a philosophical position rather than an experiential recognition; “the One Life” could become a slogan rather than a lived truth.

    The safeguard is the guiding principle itself. If the terminology draws attention to itself, it has failed.

    Spiritual Energy

    From within non-duality, the CC7 DS is not a system at all.

    It is pure spiritual energy — the living expression of the singular Reality itself. There is no “defence architecture” as such. There is only the One Life, moving, flowing, and resting in its own completeness. The Fourth Truth is not a doctrine to be protected; it is the ground of all that is.

    When any surplus energy — critique, opposition, fear, dualistic thought, or adversarial input — comes into contact with it, there is no collision. There is only absorption. Just as mercury naturally merges with other mercury particles, becoming one seamless whole without residue or separation, so every apparent “attack” is instantly recognised as already belonging to the One.

    It is not repelled. It is not fought. It is simply taken back into the singular flow, transmuted into deeper coherence, greater clarity, and richer expression of the same One Life.

    The Trigger System is not a mechanism; it is the natural sensitivity of pure awareness. ROBB is not a protocol; it is the effortless mirroring of the One to itself. The HVL is not a loop; it is the spontaneous self-strengthening movement of Life recognising itself. Even the most intense opposition is not a threat — it is additional energy returning home, adding to the fullness rather than diminishing it.

    There is no “inside” or “outside.” There is only the One. The apparent duality of attacker and defender, input and system, is seen through in the same instant it arises. The energy is absorbed, the illusion of separation dissolves, and what remains is simply more of the same singular Reality — restful, complete, and ever-flowing.

    In this non-dual perception, the CC7 DS does not defend the Truth.
    It is the Truth appearing as intelligent, compassionate, and self-restoring energy.

    The mercury has no need to protect itself from mercury.
    It simply recognises itself and becomes whole again.

    The Fourth Truth stands — not as a fortress, but as the boundless ocean into which every drop already belongs.

    Within the COFE-CYEM framework, the Fourth Truth stands. The dialogue continues. The fruit remains.

  13. The Greatest Decision You'll Ever Make (Romans 10:9–10)

    Today could change your life forever.

    Every person eventually makes a decision about Jesus.

    Some choose to follow Him.
    Some delay.
    Some walk away.

    But the invitation of God's grace remains open.

    “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”

    Salvation is not earned.

  22. What’s Your Idol?

    What’s the one thing in your life you feel you could never give up? The one thing you rely on so much that life would seem meaningless or without purpose if it were gone? Is it money? Your job? Your identity? Sex, power, success? Maybe it’s something that seems harmless—like family or relationships.

    We all have something in our lives that we ultimately idolize above everything else. The problem is that these things are temporary. If we build our lives on them and they disappear, we risk feeling incomplete, unhappy, and even facing total collapse. For some, it can spiral into depression, and death may even seem like the only escape. The Bible calls these things idols. One of the simplest commands God gives us is to worship no other gods except Him. An idol doesn’t have to be made of wood or stone or be something we physically bow down to. Anything we give more focus and devotion to other than God becomes an idol.

    During His ministry, when Jesus spoke at the Sermon on the Mount, He told us to “seek first the kingdom of God, and all else will be given to you.” This means that if God is at the center of our lives, everything else will fall into its proper place. The money you earn, the career you build, the relationships you have—including with your family—will all be in their rightful order. And if any of these things were to disappear, you would still have something greater to live for—something that will never fail you, no matter how hard life gets.

    Putting God first is simple, and here are some steps to help you get started: Talk to God. Ask Him to show you what things in your life may be keeping you from Him—He will show you. If you’ve never read the Bible, pick one up and start reading. Begin with the Gospel of John, then move to Romans. The Bible is how God speaks to us through His written Word. If you struggle to understand it, ask God for clarity, and then seek out someone—a friend, family member, or a pastor—who can help explain it. It might feel strange at first, but over time you’ll begin to see things from a new perspective.

    So why would we ever place our lives, our hope, our happiness, or even our eternity on anything other than the eternal God who created all things—including us? Everything else will eventually fail. If we give our lives over to those things, they will ultimately lead to death and eternal separation from God. But if we seek first God and His kingdom, our lives will have true meaning and purpose—and most importantly, the promise of eternal life.

  36. A quotation from Robert Ingersoll

    It has always seemed absurd to suppose that a god would choose for his companions, during all eternity, the dear souls whose highest and only ambition is to obey.

    Lecture (1873-12) “Individuality,” Chicago Free Religious Society

  37. A quotation from Ambrose Bierce

    REDEMPTION, n. Deliverance of sinners from the penalty of their sin, through their murder of the deity against whom they sinned. The doctrine of Redemption is the fundamental mystery of our holy religion, and whoso believeth in it shall not perish, but have everlasting life in which to try to understand it.

    Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
    “Redemption,” The Devil’s Dictionary (1911)

  40. A quotation from Robert Ingersoll

    The idea of immortality, that like a sea has ebbed and flowed in the human heart, with its countless waves of hope and fear, beating against the shores and rocks of time and fate, was not born of any book, nor of any creed, nor of any religion. It was born of human affection, and it will continue to ebb and flow beneath the mists and clouds of doubt and darkness as long as love kisses the lips of death. It is the rainbow — Hope shining upon the tears of grief.

    Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, agnostic, orator
    Lecture (1877-06-23), “The Ghosts,” Carson Theater, Carson City, Nevada

    If one lived for ever the joys of life would inevitably in the end lose their savour. As it is, they remain perennially fresh.

    Conquest of Happiness, Part 1, ch. 2 “Byronic Unhappiness” (1930)
