The Spirit third dimension


We have two eyes. Each eye sees all that is possible for an eye to see. Every object, every movement, every color, etc. All that the left eye sees the right eye also sees. Cover the left eye and let the right eye capture the scene. Cover the right eye and let the left eye capture the scene. Cover both eyes and compare the scenes. They saw the same things.

But, what happens when both eyes are open to the scene. All the same images are present to either eye; but a new thing happens. A new dimension is created—the third dimension comes into existence. Before when either eye was in use the images were two dimensional; neither eye could not discern distance. But the parallax created by two individual eyes, positioned at a different spot spatially, caused an automatic response by the brain to compare the minute differences in the perspectives of each eye. Thus, depth is comprehended; near and distant objects make a fuller, bigger sense of visible reality.

 

We have God, the King, the Father of all who sees all. We have His only begotten Son, sole Heir to the throne, who is due all the honor of Him who sits on the throne, and who liveth forever and ever. As the Father sees and knows all, so the Son sees and knows all. They both see all that comprises existence; They both see all that Their kingdom is. But, like our left and right eye,They both have slightly different perspectives.

 

The Father emphasizes justice, yet not without mercy. But, His justice is so powerful that when He expressed it all from Gethsemane to Golgotha upon His Son as the God-Man, it destroyed His Son. But, His mercy was also seen in that the destruction of His Son destroyed Himself in His heart, for the love that He had for His spotless Son and for His Son’s fallen sons. That day They both poured out Their souls.

 

The Son emphasizes grace, yet not without truth. His grace is so powerful that when He gave everything to save His fallen children He preserved His determination to sacrifice Himself for His children’s eternal restoration to His Father’s full trust. But, His truth was also seen in that He never once deviated from His Father’s Law, and never taught anyone to deviate. They both lived for righteousness. For both of Them righteousness is life.

 

Combined from the days of eternity, Their two perspectives created a third perspective, a deeper love and righteousness that ensured a home of Their making that was invulnerable to any adversary, even though all enemies could only come internally. The third Perspective, the deeper union of perspectives, the Council of peace, the Spirit of God in His Son, was an omnipotent balance of justice and mercy that could not be controverted. The third Power, which only existed upon the existence of the characters of Father and Son, was the resolution of all tension between the two original perspectives and their Originators, which challenged Their unity yet made it stronger, thus preserving Their kingdom of free willed creatures. The tension and improved unity of omnipotent justice and equally omnipotent mercy brought perfect happiness to Their free-willed spirit hosts and illimitable worlds.

 

“And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to Him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, the four and twenty elders fall down before Him that sat on the throne, and worship Him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for Thou hast created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created.” (Rev. 4:9-11).

 

The Father had known from the beginning that it was not good for His omnipotent justice perspective to exist alone. Therefore, in eternity past He had brought forth His only begotten Son filled with omnipotent mercy and called His name Michael, for Michael would save His future children from the skewed perspectives of justice without mercy or mercy without justice. As He came forth, so did the third Dimension of Their union.

 

When the arch cherub ceased to appreciate the Godhead omnipotent justice and mercy, he sought to improve upon that foundation of the eternal kingdom. So, Michael gathered His loyal hosts about Him in His home and traveled across the way to a teeny, lifeless world to create a miniature of His Father’s heavenly kingdom. Michael made the progenitors of a race in a corporeal image of the spirit Godhead—His Father and Himself. And He surrounded these privileged progenitors with an infinite variety of everything imaginable, animate and inanimate, floral and faunal, intelligent and unintelligent. Life! Life everywhere! Corporeal life everywhere represented the spiritual life that pervaded His Father’s house. It was His Father’s peace on earth, and His Father’s third Dimension good will toward man.

 

When the arch cherub was able to trap the special race in his rebellion against the very Godhead who they represented, then the Parent of these His children, the unique Steward of the special race, the most merciful and intimate Creator of these corporeal examples of His Godhead, vowed to correct them and protect them. He swore to restore them to the larger kingdom, in full loyalty and trust.

In His own omnipotent mercy mixed with His Father’s omnipotent justice, the eternal, omnipotent third Dimension was roused and brought to bear upon Adam and Eve, the new beloved, yet indigent, lifeless, poisoned and intoxicated abusers of justice and mercy. The drunken, yet beloved, couple and their progeny needed more than either Jehovah or Michael could readily muster from their individual perspectives. The Godhead submitted to the added synergy of Their third Dimension unified Spirit to keep Themselves infinitely honest beyond any debate throughout eternity. And Their unified third Power kept Their loyal spirit hosts of heaven on purpose and on point to perfectly cooperate with the original two great Powers of the Godhead for the preservation of the special human race, and for the riddance of the plague that had attacked their kingdom home from within.

 

The Spirit of God, the “eternal Spirit” (Heb. 9:14), His measureless Spirit which He gave His Son, the greater third Dimension union of Their individual love which the Father had initiated, would hold the Father steady when His Son must be given up to make a permanent, impermeable, impregnable, legal solution to the questions and the unruly spirit that cursed His family of heaven and earth. The third Dimension Spirit would keep the Father on purpose and on point when fainting at the contradiction of His corrupted creatures against His gentle Child. The eternal Spirit would also hold the Son steady as He personally fought in hand to hand combat with the evil cherub and poured out of His sensitive soul in the presence of a world under the power of that mocking, wily master of temptation.


 

Together They worked out the Son’s authority to take up our redemption and settle the great controversy which the arch cherub caused.

“And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the throne.

And when He had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto Him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped Him that liveth for ever and ever.” (Rev. 5:5-14).

 

“How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” (Heb. 9:14).

 

We are invited now to enter the third Dimension of the Father and Son.

 

“I…in the Father, and the Father in Me.” (John 14:11).

“I…in my Father, and ye in Me, and I in you.” (John 14:20).

“I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me.” (John 17:23).

“And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith Thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.” (John 17:26).

 

If we tasted it now, we can have a permanent place reserved in Their parallax union. Their third Dimension Representative of infinite justice and infinite mercy will fill us without measure. Their omnipotent, combined Spirit will purge our hearts and minds and consciences of all proud thoughts and lifeless actions, and restore us to serve the living God, the great Source of life and redemption, the great Originator of the provision for our salvation, and the great Initiator of the eternal Spirit third dimension Representative of Them both.
