Secrets from Genesis Secrets, what is a secret? What does it work for secret in Hebrew or in Greek? That is remember what it is and in Greek What's the word for secret, but right? You know what the word for secret is. How about you brother Roger? Secret secret me stereo. Oh Mysterion. You knew that. Sometimes you just have to call it to mind. Say Mysterion. What's that sound like in English? Mystery. Mysteries to the world. You know the Bible is a mystery to most of the world. It's a mystery. The Bible is 66 books. It's a library. We don't have all of the inspired Word of God, do we? But we got some of it. Now is all the Bible inspired? Yes, all of it's inspired. But is everything in the Bible actually fact? No. Are Job's friend's statements fact? Are the words of Satan facts true? No. All right. So we need to remember that. And what are the rules of interpretation always? Who's speaking? Who's he speaking to? And what is the subject? Brother Ray, most of the time when he came to me and when my students come to me over these years, they say, what about this? I said, who's speaking? Who's he speaking to? What's the subject? And they answer their own questions. That's what I showed him the other day. He said, he just ain't giving no breaks. He's been doing it for over days. Just come in here. That's it. So many people today, they want to come to church and just be fed some milk and water. or milk and bread sermon, and they don't want to thank, they don't want to be made to thank. I've had people go from my class and say, you give me a headache. You know, like this. I hope I can make people thank. I hope I make you thank. I hope I open the Scriptures to you to where you can understand the Word of God better than ever before. Brother Roger, you got a question tonight? In Genesis? Genesis 2 and verse 12 is where we are. 2 and verse 12. And we're talking about what? Talking about Eden. What does Eden mean? Eden. Eden. And God. What is it? Eden. What does Eden mean? You remember what that means? Brother Roger, what? It's like a throne room or a delicacy. It means luxury. Luxurious things. And Eden was luxurious. luxurious. Now was Adam created in Eden? No. He was created outside of Eden and put in Eden. Now how many Edens are there in the Bible? Two Edens. Alright. Where's the first Eden? Where was it in time? Where was the first Eden? Eternity past. Okay. And then we have the second Eden and when is it created? In time and space. Okay, that's what we have in time and space. Wait, then what is that? What? What is that second one? The second one is the throne room for Adam. The first one was the throne room for Hillel or Lucifer. Which was both Earth? What? That was the first one that created in eternity past. Oh, uh, with... Eden. Eden in eternity. Yeah. Genesis 1 and 1, that is eternity past, and all it simply says, well it says Barashith, which means what? Baith is Bar, Roger am I telling the truth? Page 88 in Brown, Driver and Briggs isn't it? Okay, Rosh means what? First or head, and then Eth Barashith, Eth on the end of that means what? Plural, thank you. In one of the beginnings, in beginnings is what it says, in beginnings, one of the beginnings. And then it says, Barah, third person, masculine, singular, Kal, perfect. He had created, Barah means to cut, to form, to divide and to polish. He had created, Et Hashemayim, Hashemayim there means what? The universe. The heavens are everything in the universe. And then it says, We Et Ha'aretz. and then the earth, he placed it exactly at the right place. So the first Eden was Genesis 1 and 1? No, no, no. The first Eden was during Genesis 1 and 1. In that period of time. The second one, yeah, the second one was when God reconstructed the earth. That's the second Eden. The first Eden was a throne room for Lucifer. Right. Or Hillel. When he was Lucifer. Yeah, when he was Lucifer. When he became Satan, no, it was no longer his. And then so the second one was Adam. So the second one, Adam, Adam replaced Lucifer, didn't he? And both essentially failed. And both, both of them were created in the image of God to some extent. Huh. Angels are created. Yes, brother. You know, it's interesting, I already knew that, but it just tied one little small thread. You know, what you just said right now, because I understand that the angels were in the third season, back in eternity, in one of the beginnings. Yes. Okay, so when he created, re-created the earth. Reconstructed, yeah. Okay, Adam wasn't there yet. No. And that's when he was played after the fact. that was done, then that's when he placed man there. Yes, after everything was done. And he looked at it, it was just a small thread that was missing, and right when he said that, I said, oh boy, there it is. So it was just something small that I just linked together right now. If you have something like this and something alike comes on, tell me sometimes, raise your hand, feel free to do that, okay? So we have eternity past, we have the first Eden, and then we have, and then it says in Genesis 1 and 2, So it says there, and the earth, and the earth, she had become formless and void. And then it says, and there was darkness, darkness over the faces of the deep, the home, all right? And then it says, and then it says, Ruach Elohim, Merit Pesheth, Ruach Elohim. Ruach means what? Spirit, God. And who is this? The Holy Spirit. Now does the Holy Spirit suffer over every person that is reconstructed? Yes. Here he has, we see the Holy Spirit suffering over and mourning over. It says brooding over, brood, suffer, mourn. Have you ever cried and brood when something happened to you, some terrible thing happened to you in your life? You sit and you brood, you can't sleep or anything. This is the Holy Spirit brooding over, suffering over, mourning over the faces of the deep. And then we have the beginning of the reconstruction of this beautiful earth that God had created. And then when he reconstructs the earth and gets it all done, Vincent, he takes Adam and places him right in there. Right there in the right place. And remember, the earth, the earth, here we have the heavens up here, the third heaven, and then the atmosphere, and then the earth, And right here, the earth was dry land and water. Land and water. And that's the way it was. And around the earth were oceans in the sky. All of this is an ocean in the sky. And the earth was a greenhouse. Now this is fact. This, if you go back in physical science, how many of you took physical science in school? No one took physical science? We did, I just don't remember it now. Oh, okay. Physical science. Physical science, physical science. The Bible agrees with real physical science, real science, real anthropology, real archaeology, and real medicine. It's all there. It agrees with it. So many people were afraid that the Bible, they say, well the Bible is only valid when it comes to spiritual things. When it comes to history, it's not valid. You know what's interesting? Is that, um, the song, uh, Melody today, I was telling her about the, the blood, um, that the, the blood doesn't come from the mother. Okay. So we went on, um, online, they researched it and, uh, Wikipedia, there's an encyclopedia on there. And it says that, um, yeah, they don't mix and that it'll actually be deadly for the mother and the child if they do mix. So it was pretty interesting. That is science, and it's also the virgin birth. It's the virgin birth. They say, well, you know, people used to say, well, the Bible is valid, except when it comes to virgin birth. We know that really isn't possible. But Jesus was a prophet. But that's not what the Bible says, is it? Now, if you study, I've always told my students, don't be afraid to study. I try to encourage them to study. Study science, study medicine, study archaeology, study geology. All of this, study mathematics. Einstein says, I believe in God, but I absolutely trust in mathematics. Mathematics is an absolute science. It is a science. It is mathematically impossible for the world to have evolved. Do you know that? Mathematically impossible. That's not possible. People that believe in evolution believe more in evolution than we do in God. It's a greater leap of faith to believe in evolution than it is to believe in God because all of the mathematical quotations are against you. The odds are against you. All right. The gold and the... We have an Adams Jewelry Store. How many of you like jewelry stores? Girls, you like diamonds? You know, I like watches and things like that. Marilyn one time bought a ruby ring for me, which I should have kept. But I don't wear a ring, see? Because cowboys and mechanics, when they wear rings, they have accidents. And if you look at that finger right there, when I got married, it almost tore that finger off. I never put another ring on it again. I caught my hand. I was going on a tractor. And I reached out and through the gate, out of the way was a chain link thing. And the chain link got caught in my ring. And it almost pulled my arm and my finger off. The tractor did not stop. My arm went, you know, like the cartoon people, you know. That was the end of that. My hand was a bloody mess. Well, Adam's Jewelry Store, that's what we're going to talk about, Adam's Jewelry Store. It's beautiful. All kinds of things in there. Yuzahav. Yuzahav, that's where it begins. Yuzahav. Ha'arez. Hahiv. Tov. Sham. Ha-ba-do-lok. We have been. And Ha-sha-sham. Ha-sha-sham. Now let's look and see what it says. I'm in Genesis 2 and 12. Genesis 2, 12. Genesis 2, 12. If you've got your little interlinear. And then it says now, what is the name of the first capital of Kern County? Havila. Here it is, right here. Havilah right here. This is the root of this thing, this Havilah, okay? And wees ahav. And Havilah, the land, the that, good. Now, this good here is tov, say tov, tov. Tov means spiritually good, it means upright, it means straight, it means square. Now, Vincent, are you a carpenter? Ah, yes. Ah, yes, sir. Have you ever intentionally made a house crooked? Never intentionally. Never intentionally. Accidentally. Have you ever been in a house where you were falling down? OK. Oh, yeah. Yes. You ever walked into one of our sheds? We didn't know what we were doing back then, though. When I moved back to California from Nevada, I wanted to find something out in the country because I don't like city. I have never done well in city. I am not civilized. I'm just about half wild, half tame. So I'm not doing real well among these civilized people. I like to get far away from them as I can. So I went out there in Valley Acres. And on Maple Street in Valley Acres, I went down there and they had half a dozen houses for sale. And I went in this one house, and I was falling all the way through the house. I had a water bottle, and I put that on the floor, and it took off like a jet. Now that house was only $16,000. It was a four-bedroom house. But it had a concrete foundation, and that ground out there sunk like a something else. My neighbor across the street left his water on all weekend. He came back and his house went like this. The ground was sinking ground, sinking sand. You know, don't build your house on sinking sand. Well, there was it. Then I went out there and I found this house that was made in 1939, I think it was, or 1930 something. And it was on the foundation. Now, when you got a house with foundation, you got boards on the floor, you can jack that thing around any way you want to and make it level. Well, I bought that house and I just would take a water bottle and go, boom, boom. The doors wouldn't shut and everything else, so I jacked it all up and got it all square, square, straight, upright, and the doors opened and shut again. They would open and shut. You couldn't shut the doors, because the house was all They had left the water on out in the yard. Left it on. I was going to pour concrete all around. Matter of fact, I had a builder come out there and I was going to get a loan and one of these reverse mortgage type things where I didn't have to ever make a payment on it. And I was going to extend the front room. The house is already like 2,000 square feet or so. But I was going to fill in the front end of it. I was going to build a big carport on the back of it. I had a garage, I had a shop, and I had a great big open shop and everything. All this property out there, 2.78 acres, all fenced and everything else, and I was going to fix it all up and make everything square again. I got out and straightened up all the fences. I did the same thing to the shop and the garage and the apartment and everything else, fixed all the toilets and everything, made everything straight and square. The doors opened and shut. That's what the word tov means. What would the word for this kind of word in Greek be, Sharon? If she don't get it, Roger. What? No, that's true. No, that means... Roger. Agathos. What's the other word? Kalos in Greek. Kalos means this good. But we have Agathos, which means spiritual good. And the word Tov means spiritually good, upright, straight, square. When God created everything in the universe, it was square. It was upright. It was straight. Every angel that was ever created was sinless. Did you know that? They were good. Tov. Even Lucifer, Hallel. was told he was good, he was square, he was upright, but what happens? He gave them will, volition. Volition, that means will, freedom. And how could God create anything that became bad? How could God create anything that became bad? Now let's go to superlapsarian and antilapsarian. Brother Ray, what is the decree? The first decree. The first decree was to select some to be saved and others to be damned. All right, to create the elect and to create the damned. Now, what happened there? What's wrong with that? It changes the character of God, doesn't it? God does not create evil. So now we have all this land. It is told, it's good, it's square, it's upright. Okay? It's good. Square. When you build something, if you build it not square, brother, you can't get the doors to open and shut, can you? If one thing is out of square, it affects everything. Everything. The drywall, the doors. Everything. So if it's built on the wrong foundation, then yeah. Yeah. built wrong. You've got problems from their own, don't you? It'll never get straight, will it? But now God, he made man upright, square, straight. He made everything in the universe upright, square, straight, but with volition. Because God can never receive your worship if he did not give you a volition, a will. But when he gives you the volition and the will, then you have the choice to go out of square. or with God. Now, every one of these little kids, every little child that's born in this world is covered by the blood of Jesus Christ. Do you know that? I believed in what we call unlimited atonement. And every child before it comes to the age of accountability is covered by the blood of Jesus. And then it says that he died for all men, especially those that believe. especially for those that believe, so you're recovered. But when you come to the age of accountability, then what? Then we go astray. Now, children come out speaking lies, don't they, from their mother's womb. But there's a time when they realize they've become liars. And that's different, isn't it? That's the time that they've become liars. That's all in the word tov there. Tov. Say tov. Tov. Now, that's kind of a Unusual looking word, let's look at it like this. Okay, that's it right there, told. That's it, told. All right, and the word is agathos in Greek. You can either put an omicron or omega on that thing, whether it's an adverb or a noun. Okay, agathos. That's good, that's spiritually good. So everyone, Everything that God ever created was square, was upright. And then it says Shom, Shom is there. That means place, name, monument, place. Shom, am I right, Brother Roger? Am I telling lies? And you can look at it on page 1027 in Brown, Driver, and Braggs if you want to. And then we have the word Habedalach, Habedalach. Habedalach is Bedellium. It is a transparent, gum-looking color of gold, yellow, like manna. Manna. Say manna. Manna. Manna is a Hebrew word, manna. Manna looks like gold. It's like a resin. Manna. What does manna mean in Hebrew? Ma. Ma. What does ma mean in Hebrew? What. What. So what does manna mean? It means, what is it? So this substance here is the color of gold and the color of manna. And was there natural manna in the land when Israel, we're going way back into here now, when Israel came out of the Egyptian bondage into the land of Canaan, say Canaan. That's how you say it, not Canaan, but Canaan. Canaan means, it comes from the same word as Canaan, which means gotten. Now God gave them the land. And the Canaanites went out there and we knew they were going to be bad, not every Canaanite was damned or exodus from the land, some of them believe. Because of what? Volition! Volition, okay? Volition. When they went into the land, they went out there and they say, Maana, Maana, Ma, Maana, Ma, Maana. What is it? What is it? And what was it? It was a natural substance that came out of the thymus tree, which made, in a few months of the year, it did this, Brother Roger. Am I telling you the truth? Yeah. Natural manna was there. And it tasted like honey. It tasted like, like honey-crusted doughnuts. You like doughnuts? They got to eat doughnuts every day. Every day. Doughnuts every day. A doughnut a day will keep the starvation away. All right, but they had this. They had doughnuts every day. But they got tired of them. And they started wailing and crying and griping about it. Oh, we don't want to eat this. We don't want to eat this. What is it anymore? All right, well, that's the word, bdellium, there. It's kind of a transliterate gum-looking thing that looks like manna. And then it says, wiavan, and wiavan means, and stone. Now we're talking about the jewels, the stones. This word in Greek would be what? Lethos or petros. Lethos or petros, a stone. It's a stone, stones, gems, jewels. Jewels and stones, jewels, ha-sha-sham, onyx. And onyx today is like those Apache tears up there in Maryland. In Fish Lake Valley, there's Apache tears all over the place. But some of those Apache tears are flesh colored instead of black. And this is the color. This old color is carnelian. It's an old Assyrian loan word. All right? And this here is not a black onyx, but a flesh-colored onyx. A flesh-colored stone. Now let's go to 2.13. וִּשֶׁם הַנָּהָר הַשְׁנִּי גִּהֹם הֵוּ הַשֹׁבֶן אֶת Call, Eretz, Kush. Wisham means and name. And name. Ha-hanar. Ha-hananar. Hanahar. Look at that word, brother. That means river, doesn't it? The river. Page 625 in Brown Driver and Briggs. Hashini. And now this is the second river, and the word Shani means what, Brother Roger? Shani. Shani. Remember. Shani. It means to split and divide. It literally means to split and divide. Shani does. And we have one and we have two. You divide one and you have two. That's what it means. Second, split, divide, repeat. That's what Shene means, repeat. And the second river is Gihon. Now the word Gihon, that's Gihon, Gihon, that's how you say it. And this river means busting forth. Maryland, was Chattavich Creek roaring when we left? Roaring and busting forth. Just rushing out there. Roaring the noise just roared one guy up in Bishop listens to me when I preach the sermon down on the creek He'd listen to the tree. He said you got put windsocks on those microphones, and I said that's not when you're hearing That's a river rushing That's a rushing river the ghee home The roaring rushing river and this roaring rushing river him He eschewed. This is him or he is Ha-so-veen, Ha-so-veen, Ha-so-veev, that is, Ha-so-veev. Ha-so-veev means like Galilee. What's it mean, Brother Roger? Circling, circling, encircling, surrounding. Et, et, sign of the direct object, call all, and then Eretz is land, and then Cush, the land of Cush. Who are the Kushites, Marilyn? Is that in Africa? Yes. So all of the continents now, remember we have one continent, it's all land. Now what later would become the African continent, the Arabian continent, the European continent, Asia Minor and all of that is all one piece of ground. Okay? Now I did forget and left one thing behind and that was my archaeological Bible. I was going to read some things out of it for you about this. Here, the Garden of Eden was probably near the Persian Gulf. But all the continents are one. So here we have the Kushites and everything all rolled into one. The Kushites. Who later ruled Egypt, Marilyn? The Kushites. They were a very tall, dark people, and they were warrior people. The Kushites. The land of Kush. Now that's the land of Kush because the people that lived there were going to be the Kushites. And what people would this come from? This is way before this, but who would be the sons of Cush? Where would they come from? From Ham. Chum. What does Chum mean? Hot. Now let's just think about this for just a moment. How many of you ever had a black car? Those two right there. I'm going to tell you something. In the hot, blistering sun of Bakersfield, do you go out and just lay your hand on your car? Well, what? Because black absorbs heat, doesn't it? Man, does it absorb heat. Bam! Ah! Cush, the place of hot. The place of the hot-tempered people, too. Hot, hot-tempered. Encircling all the land of Cush, Ethiopia. 214 to in verse 14. Let's go look at that I've come back to all this green country and I have asthma. I'm choking. Yeah, I Don't have this coffin problem up there when that wild high desert All the antelope and the buffalo play. I had buffalo venison meatloaf the other day. Up there. Sure did taste good. Wee sham. Hanahar. All right. Ha-shee-lo-shee. Chid-dee-let. Chid-dee-kel. Hugh Hachalek, Kid Moth, Ash Shure, Wee Hanahar, Ha Ravie. Hugh Vareth. And Name, and Name Monument Pillar. The River. the river, Hanahar. This is probably in Iran. Okay, probably in Iran. The third, Ha-Shee-Lo-Shee. Ha-Shee-Lo-Shee. The third, Cheh-Dee-Kehl. Cheh-Dee-Kehl. Cheh-Dee-Kehl. is Tigris. This is the Tigris River. The Tigris and the Euphrates. That's where we are now. Tigris and the Euphrates. And what is in the middle of the Tigris and the Euphrates, what is that called? Do you remember that, Benson, at school? What, Roger? Mesopotamia. What does Mesopotamia mean? Mesopotamia, that is a Greek word. The land between the rivers. Mesopotamia, the land between the rivers. the middle of the rivers, and the rivers are the Tigris and the Euphrates. Okay, the Tigris and the Euphrates. Now, since we're talking about this, I want to tell you something else. I wish we had a, we don't have a globe around here, do we? Where? Oh, a globe in the office. I want to show you something here real quick. I want you to understand something. This is a little bit off the subject. This is parenthetically speaking, so to speak. But a little globe. We're looking for a globe. You got one in your room? Okay. Well, here it comes. Here it comes. This is a pretty good size globe. All right. this globe. Alright, as we spin it around, hope it didn't fall apart on me. See this globe? This is China, and Africa, and we have America, North, Central, and South America, and up in here, we have Europa. Alright, now, All of this, if you look at it, it all fits together, doesn't it? If you push it together. See how that land fits together? And right over in here, we have Egypt, and so on and so forth, up in this area. And if we look over here in South America, what do the people do down here in Egypt? They build pyramids and make mummies. And what do they do over here in South America? They build pyramids and they make mummies. Okay, the same kind of people, and both of them are Hamites, so to speak. Now, another thing I want to show you about the Tibers and the Euphrates, as we get over here, and the... Here is the Mediterranean Sea right here, see this? The Mediterranean Sea goes between Africa, basically, and Europe. And the Middle East and all that, there's where this body of water is, the Mediterranean Sea, okay? Now, how many of you remember the story of Jonah? You remember the story of Jonah? Okay, Yonah. Yonah means dove. And Jonah went down to Nineveh and he preached. He wants, of course, to go to Nineveh. Now, let's get back over here. Here is the Mediterranean Sea. He's over here. Now he's over here pretty much in the Galilee region, just a little bit west of Galilee is where he was, and God told him to go up to Nineveh. And now Nineveh is way up here, over here, and it's off the, here we have the Persian Gulf, the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf in here, and we have the Tigris and the Euphrates Rivers coming down. That's what the rivers we're talking about. Okay? Now, he tells him to go from this area up here near Nazareth, and this area, and Galilee area, and he tells him to go that way, and go to Nineveh. Well, what did he do, Brother Ray? He took off and went towards Spain, which is about 2,000 to 3,000 miles in the wrong direction. About 6,000 to 800 miles where he was supposed to go, but he took off 2,000 to 3,000 miles And what happened to... Jerry, do you remember what happened to Jonah? He took a boat ride, didn't he? There was a storm in the sea, and finally they threw him out, and what happened to him? He was swallowed by a leviathan or a god, you know, a dog, that is, a big fin. And this big fin transported him. Now, I want you to think about this. We don't ever hear any preachers talk about it. I think I'm the only one to ever talk about this. Here's the Mediterranean Sea. Now, Nineveh's over here, way over there, way over there off the Tigris River. Now, how are you going to get there from this Mediterranean Sea? If you're in a fish, you've got to swim all the way around the whole world almost, all the way around the African continent and swim way back up here and then back up into the Indian Ocean, back up in the Persian Gulf and all the way back up the Tigris River and spit him out. That's tens of thousands of miles. Is God able to do that? Sure. How long did it take that trip? Three days. And three days, what was Jonah doing? He was dead. He was a dead man. In the body of that fish, he was dead. He wasn't alive, he was dead. So he had to make this great big long trip around up here and up into that Persian Gulf and all the way up this river that we're talking about here right now. So he's going to be on a long trip. Or else, God made that fish fly, which I have no problem with that either. But I'm telling you, this was a great miracle. A great miracle. From the one, Jonah was dead. Number two, he had to go over 10,000 miles swimming to swim his fins off and scales off that far until he got to where he's going and he spit him out and he was alive and started preaching. So now, we have the region where he was. Okay, the region where he was. And name the river, the third, Tigris. And he, the one walking. Did you know rivers walk? Now you know now, the river walked. The river walking. Now which way does the current river walk? It goes from there, up in the Sierras, on the back side of the Sierras, and Whitney, back from Mount Whitney, it comes down all the way down to Kernville and everything, and it walks and it walks and it walks, and it walks to Bedford. Okay? The river walking. The river walking, the one walking, Kedmoth, Kedmoth, Kedmoth. What's Kedmoth mean, Brother Roger? That means toward the sun. This river is going to go east. All right, now which way does it go today? East. You know that most rivers go north and south. Did you know that? Usually they go down. We have one river running like uphill. And that's the Nile River going the wrong way. It starts up there and the Great Lakes back up in there and runs down and goes out into Egypt, the Nile River, OK? Eastward. of Assyria, Ashur. And then it says, We've Han the Har, and the river, the fourth, Hariv, the fourth, He Euphrates. Euphrates. Euphrates. What does Euphrates mean? Euphrates. What does it mean? Sweet water. Sweet water. Sweet water. Sweet water. Now, Brother Ray, do you remember a few years ago, all these doctors were what we call merchandising, collodial water. Remember that? Remember that water? And what was in it? All kinds of minerals. This collodial water. That's what that means. Sweet water. Do you know that the waters of the Euphrates, when it comes down there, that water is almost white? Almost white! white with minerals, right out of those tall mountains, coming down, you know, way back up toward Mount Ararat, in that direction. And the waters are running down, and they're bringing all kinds of collodial minerals down there. And you could buy water out of the Andes, and out in here they would get this mineral water, this, what we call, water from the glacial, glacial waters. Glacial waters and these glacial waters Had a lot of minerals and things in them and that's sweet water like Euphrates sweet water like Euphrates water and So this water is full of vitamins and minerals to in verse 15 Why you cock And then we have the word ha the bar. We don't have to say this word. This is Jehovah. We do gonna say ha the bar Elohim at and And then we have the word ha-adam. Wee-yah-nah-chee-hoo. Vegan. Vegan. Okay. Edan. And then we have lee-ah-bah-dah. Yulee-shah-meh-rah. And he took and kept on taking third person, masculine, senior, cow, wild, consecutive, imperfect. Am I telling the truth about it out here? That's what it is. And he took and kept on taking Jehovah, the word Jehovah, Hathabar. This word Hathabar. That's the word Hathabar, and in Greek it is Hologos. You see that? And the Greeks, or the Hebrews, when they come to the word Jehovah, and here's the word Jehovah, That's it right there. When they come to that word, they say, Ha-the-bar. Because they weren't about to do it. Because in Exodus 20, verse 7, it says, Thou shalt not use the Lord thy God's name in vain, so they were afraid to ever speak it. After Moses, they never spoke that name ever again. It was deadly. Because the Lord will require it of you, if you use his name in vain. So they always say, Ha-the-bar. So let's say, Ha-the-bar. That's who it is. And who is that? That's Jehovah. Alright, so when you come to the New Testament, it shows us... That Logos there is Jehovah. And then it says in John 1, 14... And Jehovah, the Word, flesh He became and dwelt among us. It says, and he took Jehovah Elohim, eth, the man, ha-adam, ha-adam. Adam comes from the Hebrew root, dom, that's it, dom. Dom. Dom means what, Brother Ray? Dom. You got that one, Brother Roger? It's either red or blood. Red or blood. That's what dom means, alright? And then where it says in Genesis 126, it says God made man in his blood-flowing likeness. The word Dom was in that, in that word, okay? In his blood-flowing likeness. And guess what? Adam had God's blood in him, but he polluted it, didn't he? He was made perfect, but he polluted that perfect blood. Also here we have, and he placed the Adam and let him down. laid him down, third person, rising senior, he fell while consecutive and perfect, and he laid him down, and it means to give rest, to lay him down there. Lay him down. My mother used to put me to bed at night. I would say my prayers and I'd say, lay me in. I didn't say amen, I said lay me in. I thought I was supposed, that's what I was gonna do, laying me in. gave him rest. He placed him and gave him rest. And then it says vegan, vegan. Now what is a vegan? Sharon, what's a vegan? What's a vegan, brother? A vegetarian. A person that eats out of the garden. He doesn't eat the animals in the garden, but he eats the garden. Vegan, that's where the word vegan comes from right here. Vegan. It means in garden. Gone is garden, but here we have the, Beth in front of it, which means in garden. In garden. And Eden. Eden means what? Delight, deities, luxury, to live luxuriously, palace, a throne room, a paradise, a guarded pleasure park. That's what it is. That's what paradise means. Paradiso comes from, you know, the word paradise is a Greek word, paradiso. But that one comes from the word peres in Hebrew and it comes from, the Hebrew comes from the Persian and it all means a guarded pleasure park. All the way down we have the word paradise and it means a guarded pleasure park. He put him in a garden pleasure park in Eden. La Avada, to work and to protect her. That's Cal-Infinity, to work, maintain and protect her. He put him down to rest in the garden. Then he said, get to work. Get to work. Now, who was he going to protect the garden from? Who was he going to protect her from? The predators, which were fallen angels, Satan, and spirits. Who was his partners? All the animals were his partners. To work her and protect her, and to guard her, to be her bodyguard, that's cal infinitive. Cal infinitive also, that means to guard her. To guard her, That's Cal-Infinity, third person, feminine, singular suffix. There it is, Roger. To guard her. To protect her. To be her bodyguard. What was Adam to do? He was a guard this earth. From a real enemy, wasn't he? A real enemy. A real enemy. Pretty much the same today in our churches. Yeah. You need to protect them. We need to protect the churches from the real enemy because the real enemy is out there. We need to proclaim the truth. We need to proclaim it to where it can't be confounded and misinterpreted. See? See? Yes or no? Yes, we do. We need to do that. We need to put the truth out to where it cannot be confounded. Do we believe in creation? Yes. Do we believe in a young earth? No, because the Bible doesn't teach that. That's a fallacy. But is it creeping into the churches? Yes. When we study the scriptures, we believe the Bible to be inspired in what? In the original languages. Is the King James Version inspired? What was the King James Version for? The Church of England. King James' Bible. And in that preface or epistolatory letter, in the front of it, it damned and cursed the Catholics, the Romish people, and those that would have nothing but what's hammered out on their own down below. And who was that? The Baptists. All right. Be aware of all these things. Be aware of this. Be aware of what the Bible is. Be aware of the, and I'm studying about the inspiration of the Bible. Brother Harry, have you got there yet? Where I'm studying the systematic theology, the inspiration of the scriptures? Did God dictate his word to these people? No. Did he do that? Or did he put in their minds what he wanted to say and allow them to say it on words and it was inspired? All the surrounding things, their own language of the day. The Bible is written in what languages? A little one short, brother. Chaldee, which is kind of like Aramaic and Greek. Greek New Testament. The Hebrew Old Testament, except for about three or four books there during the Babylonian captivity, it's written in Chaldee. Because we have the Chaldeans running the show. So we see that. And Chaldee, and once you get into the lexicons, it'll say a Chaldee Hebrew, Chaldee lexicon. Because you got these Chaldee words. The word paradise. That is a Persian word. The word Hades, Sheol, all of that comes from the word Paradise. Let's get the idea of all of this stuff. The word Amen. How about the word Amen? Amen. Say Amen. It goes all the way back to what language? It goes back to Persian, then into Hebrew, into Greek, and into English, and we don't have a translation of it, which it means what? Absolutely, that's it. The prop up. That's it. I will stand by it. It's propped up. It's sure. Amen. All right. I want to give you an invitation tonight. Do you have any questions, by the way? Have any questions? Did you learn something? Did you learn something tonight? That fish swimming all those tens of thousands of miles, did that give you more faith? It didn't hurt your faith, did it? Why didn't he take a shortcut and go through the Suez Canal? The Suez Canal wasn't there. Besides, he wouldn't have got there anyway. He wouldn't have got there anyway. He's got to go through another continent all the way around. Huh? Are you learning something? I hope I'm feeding you. I mean to feed you. Brother, what do you have? I want to give you an invitation tonight if you want to join the church, if you want to surrender to something in your life, whatever you want to do, I give it to you. If you want to be saved tonight, if the Lord is calling you to salvation, follow, follow, follow him. Rock of Ages, cleft for me. Let me hide myself in Thee. Let the water and the blood from Thy wounded side was flowed. Be of sin the double cure. Save from wrath and make me pure. Amen. Thank you for being here to go out and do something eternal.
