THE MIRRORED IMAGE

Two hands identical

With just the fingerprints reversed.

Two trees branches intermingling

Though the life’s diverse.

Baalam's seven alters

And fundamentally right

Miracles where donkeys spoke

A vessel with prophetic sight.

The shuck so close to seed

To nurture and protect.

Diligently living

Does its job without neglect.

So profoundly close

With a depth hard to define.

The impersonation mirrored

That’s missed most of the time.

In the world and church today

We see this incredible deception.

But in me a mirrored image lays

Easily avoids detection.

This needs an Eye that sees all things

And surgery divine.

To extract religions tentacles

Down in this life of mine.

 

  Now, in Galatians 4:27, I wish to read these words, 4:27 to 31 inclusive.
For it is written, Rejoice, thou bearing that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate has many more children than she which has a husband
Now, we brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
But as then he that was borned after the flesh persecuted him that was borned after the Spirit, even so is it now.
Neverless what saith the Scripture? Cast out the bondswoman and her son: for the son of the bondswoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman
So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondswoman, but of the free.

 Just like Paul said here, "Did not the--the seed of the--of the freewoman or the bondswoman persecute the seed of the freewoman? And so does the seed of the denomination persecute the genuine grain. It's always got to be that way. They'll not be heirs together. They're not associated together. They're absolutely two different promises, two different times, two different peoples altogether. One's a Bride and other one's a church. No comparison at all with them.
But still they are not the seed that's promised to come. Neither was Sarah; and neither was Hagar. Neither Mary was the Seed. Mary was not the Seed. She was a carrier of the Seed. But she had nurtured, brought forth out of her womb, just like the shuck brought from it's womb the real Seed. But the shuck is not the Seed. It's closer to the seed. It's hugged up around the seed. Way back up in the stalk, the life is scattered all through the stalk. And when it comes to the pollen, it's gathered down closer. But when it comes to the shuck, it's right down there like the seed, and forms it almost like the seed. Jesus told us what would be in the last days: be so close it would deceive the very elected if possible. But then the seed comes forth from there. And the shuck, the life leaves the shuck. And the shuck is a carrier. And that's just exactly what our denominations has been, a carrier. Luther, Wesley, Pentecostals, and now it's time for the seed to come forth.
