The Faith of The Operation
of God
Colossians 2:12
The faith
of The Operation
of God: Removes all
law.
For a little cancer us law can kill the whole body of Christ if not
removed in time.
Colossians 2:12 allegorically speaks of The Operation of God:
"Buried
with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with [him]
through the faith of the operation of
God, who hath raised him from the dead".
Grace (not law) unto you, and peace (not division),
from God our Father, and the
Lord Jesus Christ.
The faith of the operation of God: The
faith?
The faith speaks of the faith of the Son of God,
the better of two sorts of faith (trust: John 5:45) in
grace rather than law; For conversion (repentance, change)
is "from faith to faith" of two faiths
compared in the Bible: blind faith in law vs seeing faith of grace. For
when connecting
biblical dots of Romans 14:23 and Galatians 3:11,
we learn "whatsoever is not of faith is sin" and "the law is not of
faith". So blind faith in the law is not real faith at all, but sin,
which is imputed by the law,
which we are delivered
from as if delivered from evil; And as if
answer to the common prayer: Our Father, deliver us from evil.
Prayer: Our Father, deliver us from
evil: Matthew 6:13
Answer: We are delivered from the law: Romans 7:6
The faith of the operation of God: The
operation of God?
The operation of God speaks
of an operation, which removes something from the body.
Forgive
"them": children, servants; And notably because they "know not". Many
pride them-selves on being "children" of God; But know not the God (on
high) they are children of is Law, and that the higher God
biblical exhortation is "be no more
children", since children get tossed to and fro by winds (spirits) of
doctrine. Many also pride them-selves in being servants(slaves) of
righteousness, not knowing the higher biblical exhortation is "thou art
no more a
servant". For only "above a servant" is truly free: free of
believing the lies(laws). Children and servants differ nothing: both
"know not" and thereby still have to be told what to Do-teronomy &
Don't-eronomy; But good old
Deuteronomy has a curse hidden in the midst of it, making it(law)
both good + evil,
which is what we are exhorted to discern (allegory: a void).
The Bible is allegoric
from begin to end. It not only self defined itself as
"allegory" in both "covenants",
but also as "mystery" over
20 times; And the "mystery" mentioned in Colossians 2: 2 is notably a
triple "mystery" to solve:
(i) the mystery of God, and
(ii) [the mystery] of the Father, and
(iii) [the mystery] of Christ.
The Bible is allegoric mystery
to solve by "seek and ye shall find",
having within it see-king clues, and also clues of what to "find": Seek
ye first the
kingdom of God (not kingdom of heaven) and his
righteousness (not supposed righteousness of another law);
Find grace (at
the throne
of grace, where only mercy is
notably obtainable, not both mercy and sacrifice), and find
grace "in time" (not too late), to
"help"(not hinder). Thereby "find rest" (peace): there remaineth
a rest to the people of God: Hebrews 3 and Hebrews 4. Also "find"
the 1/100 sheep that went astray, which is notably "found"("alive") in
Luke 15. Perhaps also "find" no fault(law)
in J->C, as Pilate did "find" in Luke 23 & John 19. And if concupiscence a
problem (as CrossWalk says it is with half the men in church),
perhaps "find" a law
as the source of said hind-rance, as Paul did in Romans 7; Which notes
"we are delivered from the law"
(as answer to "deliver us from evil": Mt 6:13).
Many do not know the shew is a comparative
teaching (scripture -vs- scripture) "written
aforetime for our learning" (Rom
15:4). Such not only suggests thinking is allowed, but
also ignorance
isn't bliss. According to converted Peter,
willing ignorance was the cause of the first
of twain worlds
all perishing (2Peter 3).
According to converted Paul all perish is by the using
of ordinances (laws), which we are exhorted to "touch
not, taste not, handle not" (Colossians 2:20-22).
Biblical Allegory is unknown to
many,
even to many servants of
righteousness.
The word "allegory" doesn't
appear in the New King James Version
(NKJV) of the Bible. It uses "symbolic" instead. Neither does
"allegory"
appear in the New International Version (NIV) of the Bible. It uses
"figurative"; And worse
yet, some NIVs leave out Rev 22:21
altogether and some leave out "Christ" if they include Rev 22:21 (see
via Parallel Bibles).
Some Bible commentaries even use "metaphor" instead of "allegory".
But
after 100,000 hrs of actual Bible study it's my insight
Translators
of the Bible used the most appropriate word: allegory, being more
meticulous about
translating than unlearned
scribes.
Which things are an allegory: Bible is
allegoric, allegorical
To clarify more churchy definitions of allegory: biblical
allegory is
simply a
story in which people, places, and things often have another meaning,
kinda like allegoric parables
and allegoric proverbs do. Scriptures are
allegorical, stories with a spiritual moral of life or death
(allegory: grace
or law) consequence. Biblical
allegory is more than symbolic, figurative, or
an extended metaphor.
The Holy Bible
is allegoric. Being allegorical it is a virtue-all God shew, whereby all the worlds
a
stage, and a mystery to be solved "in time" (Heb 4:12)
since there's neither any mystery
nor time for it in eternity; The reconciliation
unto God(Grace) objective
being
"with all thy getting, get
understanding". For understanding ("grace glory" thereof)
is what prevails, among all, in heaven.
All scriptures are allegorical from Genesis
1:1 to Revelation 22:21
Understand that
"my grace is sufficient" means no law required; Understand that "I will have mercy,
and not sacrifice" means I
will have grace,
and not law. And
understand "immutable" means unchangeable by any means. No amount of
lying, crying, or dying will ever change the immutable will of God.
Paul
The Apostle became a master at allegorically speaking
In Galatians 4 Paul
The Apostle allegorically
notes Abraham
had two sons (Ishmael/Isaac; allegorically
Flesh/Spirit) by two different women (Agar/Sarah; allegorically bondwoman/freewoman). Then he notes "which things
are an
allegory", for these things(plural) "are the two covenants" (two testaments:
law/grace). One of twain Jersusalems
(allegorically
mothers), Jerusalem
below: "this" Agar is Mount Sinai (law)
gendereth to bondage (plan
b); But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is
the mother of us all (plan a: approved).
What it says, in plain allegorical
english, is law, which
was "added" to
"my grace is sufficient" (no law required) was plan b:
"bondage"; Whereas firstly pure
wisdom (of two wisdoms)
from above (Grace
unto you from God our Father)
is plan a: approved. So in the exhortation: "study
to shew thyself approved unto
God", "shew" suggests a study of twain things: disapproved (law)
vs
approved (grace), with only one of twain being what's
right for you: all the KofG within "you".
To be sure
that's what it allegorically
says, let us go on to the question Paul (his witness
unto all men) both asks and answers in Galatians 4 mention of allegory (which
has
an allegorical theme,
discussion, conclusion). Question:
what
saith the script-u-are? Of twain scriptures,
which one
are you? Answer:
cast out the bondwoman and her
son (allegory: cast out
the law
and
result of law: sin and death). The obvious benefit of no
law: no
imputation of sin and no dead end. For
law is not only the source of sin (Rom 5:13); Law is
also the "strength" ("strong man": Mt 12:29) of sin,
and the "sting" of sin (law imputes) is death (1Cor
15:56). So as James 1:15 allegorically
says: sin(law), when "it
is finished",
brings "death".
The conclusion of Galatians (allegorically written "unto the
churches", which is mentioned only in Galatians and Revelation)
is: "Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus
Christ with your spirit. Amen", allegorically different from the Pauline Epistle format;
Which generally concludes Pauline epistles with:
"The grace of our Lord Jesus
Christ with you all. Amen". A
last "Amen" to that:
Grace(only)
with you all, is also how Pauline written Hebrews and Revelation
allegorically end, how the Bible ends, is what makes both it and "you all" one
thing: Holy (not Holy
Holy).
