Dream 124
A tree that is more of a vine than a tree is in front of me. It is massive. It is so big that a river big enough for a ship passes through it.
Vines stretch out from it and spread all over the world like the nervous system of the human body. In some places the vine is thick, in other places it is very thin and I watch as as men and demons work hard to chop at the thin vines as they attempt to spread into the areas where the vine is thinnest.
Wherever the vines are thickest there is abundance. People still make for themselves golden calves and other idols but they rest on the vine and associate themselves with it so it bares fruit through them, heals them and gives them the wisdom to prosper in both soul and body.
The vine has grapes on it and those who eat of the grapes walk in wisdom, knowledge, understanding, council, might, fear God and heed the Holy Spirit. They see all that is right with the world and all that must be done to make the world a better place.
Right next to the massive vine is a smaller tree which is heavily laden with juicy looking fruit.
I stare at it for a while and decide to not have any of that fruit. I suspect that this juicy looking tree is dangerous but the fruit looks like it could be incredibly sweet.
Uriel speaks from behind me.
Uriel:
“The tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. You are called son of sorrow because you have eaten from both trees your entire life.
The knowledge of good and evil brings with it much pain and many relationships are destroyed because this tree opens your eyes to all that is wrong in the world.
Those who see the harsh reality of the world outside of the vine, which is the tree of life, either become bitter and depressed or malicious and destructive.
They see what is wrong in the world and become accusers who are filled with bitterness, shame, rejection, jealousy and fear.
They see what they could have and what they do not have and secretly despise those who have what they lack. They despise God for not giving them their own way and seek to force their view of the world through manipulation and intimidation. The worst of them will kill, steal and destroy, filled with the spirit of Satan.
All because this fruit shows both good and evil. Only God has the capacity to see the world in perfect context. The knowledge of good and evil opens your eyes to see all that is right and all that is wrong but the tree of life empowers you to make what is wrong, right.
To eat from the tree of life while you eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is almost impossible because once you want to fix what you perceive to be wrong, you become filled with self righteousness.
Hear this son of sorrow:
It is impossible to consider something wrong without considering yourself right.
And those considering themselves right will do almost anything to enforce their will, even destroying relationships to achieve it.
Only God knows how to fix what is wrong without doing what is wrong.
In Eden, the tree of life gave eternal life.
Man lived in perfect health, perfect peace, perfect love and fullness of joy because the fruit of the tree of life shows only what must be done. It gives instructions that produce more life. Man lived in obedience to the Spirit of God, in communion with God and walked with God daily as friend and companion. Man was more breath of God than soil of the earth.
But when the deceiver enticed Eve to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the Spirit of God within man died and became as a dormant seed within the heart of man. Man was no longer more spirit than soil, for the knowledge of good and evil produces within man an instinct to survive, a self preservation instinct.
You see, man could now judge good and evil without the maturity to do so with proper context. So when man did what he perceived as wrong, he would feel shame. And to cover that shame Cain killed Abel.
Becoming a little more than animal, the strongest of man would determine what is good and evil by what best suited his self preservation instinct and so the strong would subjugate the weak. Women became slaves to men because men were physically stronger and thus able to enforce what they perceived as right upon all that were weaker than they.
Now man started to determine his own version of good an evil. And all who opposed the opinions of a man were considered evil, thus enemy. And the effects of the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil filled the DNA of mankind. And the earth became lawless and loveless. For the pleasures of the flesh became all that mattered to the strong and abominations were inflicted upon the weak. Even crossing the line between man and angel. Woman lay with demon and brought forth giants. In a world where physical strength ruled, the offspring of demons took power and planted a seed of hatred for God within the heart of man. Mankind became so vile that they were completely without conscience. Their version of good and evil became so twisted that they started to sacrifice their own babies in obscure rituals to demonic entities who were perverted counterfeits of the tree of life.
Only Noah remembered God and chose to honor God’s version of good an evil and he was mocked and despised for it.
There was no way back for man. Eden is a place of more spirit than soil, even if the cherubim did not guard the entrance, you would walk through it and not see it because of the contents of your soul. You would not even see the cherubim or feel the heat of the sword.
The flood was the only option. This demonic version of man would have destroyed every trace of God and every trace of love.
After the flood, the cycle began again. Man used his knowledge of good and evil to control and subjugate the weak. The strong decided what was right and wrong and set laws to further their own self interests. Slavery of entire nations and the ownership of women became commonplace because mankind was a little more than animal. Driven by instincts of the flesh as animals are driven by the same, the world once again became a hellish abomination for the weak under the perverted rule of the strong. Those in Canaan even lay with demons again. Both Philistine and Canaanite became nations of immensely strong people who would worship demons and go so far as to eat human flesh in sacrificial ceremonies.
But God could not send another flood, he had made a promise. So he found a righteous man called Abram and started man’s journey back to the tree of life, who is the vine, who is Jesus. You are His branches and if you desire to see His kingdom established, you must lay down your knowledge of good and evil.
Do only as you are instructed and the tree of life will produce eternal life through you. And all seven spirits will take their place within you.
Do not concern your self with what is right or wrong or good or evil. Rather do as the son commands. Let the Holy Spirit be your conscience so that you may be filled with wisdom, understanding, knowledge, council, might and the fear of God which is fullness of love.
Only God has the perspective to rightly divide good from evil. Or do you think your prisons and threats have made the world a better place?
The world outside of Eden is the first death. It is a shadow of hell. For when you eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, the seven spirits die within you and you walk in the shadow of death at the mercy of those stronger or richer than you. Outside of Eden, the Holy Spirit became a dead seed within the soul of man. And by the sacrifice of the son and baptism by fire did that seed spring to life once again.
And the tree who is the way, the truth and the life spread its branches across the earth. And these branches are the life and the light and the hope of the world.
You are the branches of the vine of the tree of life son of sorrow. Eden has come to earth. The kingdom is among you.
Eat no longer from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil but eat only from the tree of life.
Hear this:
Upon eating the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, man died the first death – The death of the spirit which contains the seed of the seven spirits.
It is the spirit that is eternal. Thus man could no longer comprehend eternity or the eternal purpose of an eternal spirit.
So for four thousand years, man could live only on the flesh with extremely limited access to the spirit. This is why there was so little technological progress in that time. All that is to be created resides within the spiritual realm and only those who are sensitive to the spirit have access to the mysteries that reside there.
The son, who is the tree of life, came from the spirit to become the word made manifest. He did this so that man may be reconciled to God, who is spirit. And so that the Holy Spirit may come and become the conscience of man once again.
It was after the arrival of the Holy Spirit that the dormant seed of man’s spirit was awoken. And through the Holy Spirit did mankind once again have access to the blueprints and technologies that reside within the spirit. For all that man is yet to create will bring heaven to earth in full physical manifestation. It is through the spirits of wisdom, knowledge, understanding and might that heaven is made manifest on earth.
Within in every man and every woman resides the dormant seed of the spirit which contains all seven spirits of the tree of life. And upon receiving the holy spirit and walking in full obedience to lay down the knowledge of good and evil to accept the words of the son as final authority will the tree of life grow within your spirit.
The son is the vine, you are the branches, imbued with the fullness of the power of eternal life and fullness of wisdom that resides within you.
But these things inhibit that power, not sin but spirits. Not demons but choices. These are the spirits of Satan that man makes his own. And these spirits spring forth from knowing what is good and what is evil:
The spirit of Accusation
The spirit of Bitterness
The spirit of Shame
The spirit of Rejection
The spirit of Jealousy
The spirit of Fear
The spirit of Satan
It is upon focusing on the evil around you that you fall prey to these spirits and become as an animal, fighting to make fair what is injustice. Each time reaching for the sweet fruit of self righteousness which is the justification of revenge. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil would cause you to say an eye for an eye but the tree of life would cause you to forgive as the son forgives.
Forgiveness is impossible without the seven spirits of the tree if life. You cannot forgive without wisdom, knowledge, understanding, council, might, love and the Holy Spirit. Indeed, these seven are the keys that unlock everything that God has promised mankind.
Within you are all seven spirits, seven eyes, seven horns and seven lamps. You have the fire of the lamps, the authority of the horns, the context of the eyes and the fullness of wisdom to bring heaven to earth. But will you obey the original instruction? Will you refrain from eating the fruit of the knowledge of good an evil? Will you allow God to determine what is justice and what is injustice? Will you love as He has instructed you to love and forgive as He has instructed you to forgive?
Will you lay down the seven spirits of Satan so that the seven spirits of God may rise up within you?
You are more than animals driven by survival instinct, you are friends of God.
Seek first the kingdom. Seek first the tree of life. And more than you can think or imagine will be added unto you.
The kingdom is all son of sorrow. The vine who is the tree of life and His branches are all.”
Me:
“I am changed. I understand all that you have shown me. The kingdom is the vine and his branches. And His kingdom is the tree of life. His kingdom is all!”
I wake up.
