​Greetings. People complaint and say these are strange times and feel they have never witnessed this physical world in such an unprecedented state. Unprecedented, a word we have heard hundreds of times in the media lately as they ram it down our mental throats. Fact being there is nothing strange or unprecedented about the spiritual night we physically live in! Job 18:3 Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed vile in your sight? Bildad the Shuhite asked the Prophet Job that question about themselves. Yet in another verse a direct answer is given. Ecclesiastes 3:18 I saw in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves ​are beasts.  It is not strange or unprecedented for two-legged beasts to physically kill, steal and destroyed. God words are strange to us because we have only heard them our own way and they angels or messengers. The verse below has nothing to do with anything physical or mortal people. Hebrews 13:2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. What really makes these times appear more volatile is the mobile media devices we carry around. It is not strange to see a five-year-old kid punching buttons on a real or toy cell phone. Since cell phones admit RF radiation, maybe junior should wait till he is older before getting one. With thousands of cell phone towers going up lately we might soon grow to envy ancient man, who did not worry about cable and phone bills as we pay to be traumatized. But enough above current events, which if I fail to watch the talking heads on television, somebody always feels it is their mortal duty to tell me what I missed. Fact being I have not missed anything when it has been revealed to me why God created us in the first place. John 6:27Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. The meat in the above verse has nothing to do with anything physical and we will examine the word, sealed in the above verse as we progress. John 4:34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. We were created to bring forth as much of God’s word or meat in the short physical time while we dwell beneath heaven: this puts us beneath heaven, so we are already in Hell. To bring forth is to manifest or have knowledge of the Spiritual meaning of all the scriptures which are strange to us. 2 Peter 1:2Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord. It's is a strange thing when God starts to make His word's known unto us it's: remarkable, exceptional, unusual, unprecedented, no it His glory! Those Saturday Bible carrying door knockers had that part about Hell being below heaven   must have read: Psalm 16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. Jesus: that Holy One did not see physical corruption while on this physical earth nor did he corrupt the words that are sealed from above. John 5:30I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.  We are not to judge any scriptures until we hear from above; or we are seeking our own will and are not hearing from God. Our own spirit is very deceitful in manipulating God’s voice in our thoughts. Matthew 7:1Judge not, that ye be not judged. God in this verse warns against judging His word, but even as Eve we cannot help ourselves: we are going to judge it. Because we want to become wise, but it will be in our own deceit. Genesis 3:6And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. Here we have a woman judging what is good accordingly as she saw it. Now this has nothing to do with women bashing; but the woman just represent a law in the Bible not a physical person.

The Bible is God’s Law book. Job 10:4 Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth? The Prophet Job saw this error to his level of Spiritual understanding and asked the above question. Many popular false Preachers in the past and in this present time try to use God’s word as an instrument of social reform: it is not! John 18:36Jesus answered My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jew: but now my kingdom not from hence. The Jews in the above verse has nothing to do with a physical people but our own unbelieving thoughts, these thoughts deliver Jesus up to our own carnal judgment. Act 14:But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil against the brethren.  Again Jesus was not a social reformer but is the second Adam who offers eternal life in His Kingdom to come. The first Adam offers only spiritual death followed by physical death when we try to interpret God’s word alone. 1 Corinthians 15:46
Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. When we do not fear [we do not] God, we will fear man and rightfully so, because man has no mercy or judgment in the way he sees things in the physical. 2 Timothy 3:16All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. We all have to be instructed in God’s righteousness or we will invent or establish our own. Roman 1:3 For they being ignorant of God's righteous, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have nor submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. ​If God is not revealing the true meaning of the scriptures, we are profitable only to ourselves and not God. Job 22:2Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself? A key to spiritually understanding any scripture is that the same words are connected to the same words in other scriptures. God’s Spirit revealed to me the word profitable, found in Job 22:2  about a month ago as I listen to the Bible on my MP3 player, that way more revelation is given about  2 Timothy 3:16  as I hear it. 1 Corinthians2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. I am merely allowing the Holy Ghost to instruct me by comparing spiritual things with spiritual. I do not compare Gods words with current events found in the media and call it God’s wisdom. God rejects our wisdom on any scripture or word because it will not make us perfect. 17 that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. God must give us a ear to hear His voice or we will hear our wisdom when reading the Bible and you will not discern the different. Matthew 12:15  Who hath ear to hear, let him hear. We cannot  hear because we want to hear it our way, which is sin. Sometime you might talk to a dog and that beast might turn his head as he tries to understand you. Men are equal to a beast when it comes to any spiritual understanding and beasts love to kill spiritually and physically. Want to see the mark of the beast? Years ago, if you could not read or write; you were told to put your mark on the dotted line. Psalm 73:22 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.  8/3/2020/ amended 4/13/2022 / 8/8/2022   Michael Rudolph Hodges
