II Corinthians 2:14

“The Everlasting Gospel”

The burden of the valley of vision. In a dream, in a vision of the night. I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. My spirit made diligent search line upon line, precept upon precept from sea to sea from grace to grace for a time, and times, and half a time. And when I beheld, lo! The everlasting gospel, the glorious gospel of Christ, the light of the glorious gospel of Christ.

The LORD hath appeared of old unto us, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love. I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love according to the time of life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Sing, O heavens, and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted His people, and will have mercy upon His afflicted. To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven. The LORD, He that sweareth to His own hurt, and changeth not: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever. He changeth the times and the seasons. But of the times and the seasons Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee. Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

When the fulness of time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Honey, and butter, Butter and honey. It is not good to each much honey. What is this that? This is that, this is the covenant that from the sixth hour unto the ninth hour is gone out through all the earth. For the King of saints looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven. Thus saith the LORD, Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth and called thee; with lovingkindness have I drawn thee, Thou whom I have taken this is the covenant that the day of vengeance, and the year of my redeemed, mercy and judgment, consolation in Christ, comfort of love, butter and honey, honey and butter, law and grace from the sixth hour unto the ninth hour upon the cross on the sabbath day. JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS, endured the cross, despising the shame. For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.

The burden of the valley of vision: The book of vision. Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days walk at liberty O great eagle of the gospel of Christ. Mount up with wings. Appoint a way, that the sword may come. Also, thou son of man, appoint thee ways, that the sword may come: law and grace, mercy and judgment, man and maid. Appoint a way, that the sword may come. Appoint a way, the way of a man with a maid, that the sword may come. The sword of the LORD is filled with blood; the blood of Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth. The people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. Awake, awake, put on strength, cast ye up, cast ye up prepare the way.

Of the burden in the tabernacle of the congregation: What is the burden of the LORD? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid! Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of My Spirit, that they may add sin to sin. For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our LORD.

Woe! to the crown of pride, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower. Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God. Thou hast sinned: I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Woe! to the crown of pride, Woe! to the rebellious children, that cover with a covering that they may add sin to sin. I will destroy thee, o covering cherub.

The burden of the Word of the LORD for Israel. Behold, He putteth no trust in His saints for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Yea, the heavens are not clean in His sight. But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight; Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Thus said the LORD Jesus, I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

Thus saith the LORD, stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk there in. The glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. Then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice. And I will betroth thee unto me forever; yea I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.

For who hath despised the day of small things? He that is faithful in little is faithful in much. Lie in glory everyone in his own house. Lift up a standard for the people. Wait on the LORD Jesus Christ. Wait, I say, on the LORD. The glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. Thus saith the LORD, in that day when I make up My jewels.

The Burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass through; a grievous vision is declared unto me. Woe! to the land shadowing with wings from sea to sea in half a time of grace. At ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel neither hath gone into captivity: As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings. In all the leaves of her spring they are passed away as the swift ships. Who crowned thee withlovingkindness and tender mercies so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s? The LORD Jesus Christ King of saints, Prince of the kings of the earth. There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers. What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the time of the Gentiles be fulfilled. As concerning the Gospel there shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, Jesus Christ, And so all Israel shall be saved.

Come near, ye nations, to hear and hearken, ye people: let the earth hear, and all that is therein, the world, and all things that come forth of it. Half a time of grace for grace make thee bald, and poll thee for thy delicate children; enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone into captivity from thee. Enlarge thy baldness as the eagle from sea to sea. Hast thou heard the secret of God? God loves the way of an eagle in the air. God loves the way of a man with a maid. God is love and God loves judgment.

The spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God where was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provoketh to jealousy. And Behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there. No man hath seen God at any time. Who is this that cometh this that is glorious in His apparel? His voice like the voice of a multitude. His throne like the fiery flame, and His wheels as burning fire.Buning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe. The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out. Bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled. The sight of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire.

Sea to Sea on two wings of a great eagle they saw the God of Israel. His feet like unto fine brass and the clouds are the dust of His feet. Feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace. How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! Jesus Christ, our Redeemer.

And there was under His feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness. For He put on righteousness as a breast plate, and an helmet of salvation upon His head; and He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke. Who maketh the clouds His chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind. And He rode upon a cherub, and did fly. He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under His feet. The LORD hath His way in the whilrwind and in the storm. His eyes like unto a flame of fire. And out of His mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it He should smite the nations.

For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God. For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. Set me as a seal upon thine heart, O, Jesus! As a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire. The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, He shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: He shall cry, yea, roar; He shall previal against His enemies.

Woe! to the crown of pride. Woe! to the rebellious children, that cover with a covering that they may add sin to sin. I will destroy thee, o covering cherub. O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Jesus Christ will destroy thee. There was under His feet as it were a paved work of saphire stone.

Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan. Thou art the anointed cherub that coverth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Jesus Christ will destroy thee. Jesus Christ His feet are like fine brass. There was under His feet as it were a paved work of saphire stones. For Jesus Christ hath put all things under His feet: the stones of fire, principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. Jesus Christ hath put all things under His feet.

And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon He was, to the threshold of the house. And He called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer’s inkhorn by his side; and the LORD said unto Him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.

Into the land of trouble and anguish, that this is a rebellious people.Therefore have I cried concerning this. This is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD: Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits: Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.

I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God Be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God. Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ To comfort you concerning your faith in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ. Glorify God in the day of visitation.

Then said I , Ah! LORD GOD the day of visitation. The LORD is a God of judgment. They snuffed up the wind like dragons, their eyes did fail, because there was no grass. The sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them. What shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

The burden of the valley of vision. The burden of the desert of the sea. The desert of the raging waves of the sea, foaming out of their own shame; wandering stars from vessel to vessel, like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. The burden of the desert of the sea. If we confess our sins the LORD Jesus Christ is faithful to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with His anger, the burden thereof is heavy: His lips are full of indignation, and His tongue as a devouring fire. Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without mesaure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it. For tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the King it is prepared; He hath made it deep and large. The breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it. Hell from beneath is moved for Thee to meet Thee at Thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.

The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand: This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? Worthy is the Lamb that was slain. Who verily was foreordainedd before the foundation of the world. Who by Him do believe in God, that raised Him up from the dead. This the purpose that the LORD hath purposed in the whole earth.

The burden of the valley of vision. The burden of the desert of the sea. Lift up thine eyes now the way. Son of man, seest thou what they do? They change the natural use into that which is against nature. Even great abominations. Every one of you should know how to possess His your vessel in sanctification and honour. Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations. Behold a hole in the wall. Behold the wicked abominations that they do here. Behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house. Hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? For they say, The LORD seeth us not; the LORD hath forsaken the earth. Hast thou seen this, O son of Man? Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these. They commit the abominations which they commit here? For they have filled the land with violence and have returned to provke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose. Neither shall they repent of their murders, nor their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. As a theif in the night the day of the LORD will come. The day of the Lord cometh as a theif in the night. Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me. That sayest in thine heart, I shall see no sorrow. They shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments. For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me. Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. For this cause God shall send them strong delusion that they should believe a lie. Peace be multiplied unto you. Peace shall destroy many.

Thus saith the Lord God; Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness discovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give unto them; Behold, therefore I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all them that thou hast loved, with all them that thou hast hated; I will even gather them round about against thee, and will discover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness.

If that were a very little thing, thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways. As I live saith the Lord God, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou shalt do, thou and thy daughters. Behold this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.

My bowels, My bowels! I am pained at my very heart. Thy bowels, Thy bowels! Are ye straightened in Thy bowels?

Therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of His sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked. That all flesh may know that I the LORD have drawn forth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more. A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished: It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is furbished that it may glitter:

Cry and howl, son of man. Smite therefore upon thy thigh. Appoint a way, that the sword my come. Ah! It is made bright, it is wrapped up for the slaughter. Shall I cause it to return into his sheath? The sword, the sword is drawn: for the slaughter it is furbished, to consume because of the glittering: Thus saith the Lord GOD.

Woe! to the crown of pride, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower. The fire shall burn them.; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame. Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overlfowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand. The crown of pride, shall be trodden under feet.

The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? Thou shalt be visited of the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire. And the LORD shall cause His glorious voice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting down of His arm, with the indignation of His anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.Therefore wait ye upon me, saith the LORD, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them mine indignation, even all my fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of my jealousy. Thus shall mine anger be accomplished, and I will cause my fury to rest upon them, and I will be comforted.

And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from afar? To whom will ye flee for help? And where will ye leave your glory? Glorify God in the day of visitation.

The burden of the valley of vision. The burden of the desert of the sea. Of the burden in the tabernacle of the congregation. The burden of the LORD? What burden? The everlasting gospel.

Woe, stay me, rise up, my love, my fair one, As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings from sea to sea. Woe! The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, The blood of Jesus Christ. the sword the sword is drawn the glittering sword for the glorious everlasting gospel it is furbished. The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin.

The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break forth into singing. Behold their sitting down, and their rising up; I am their music. Take me up and cast me forth. If I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. The Son of man must be lifted up. Who is this Son of man? Christ Jesus the King of saints.

Why trimmest thou thy way to seek love? O sleeper? Arise, call upon thy God. And fullfill all the good pleasure of His goodness: the way of a man with a maid, the way of an eagle in the air, the old way-the way of Adam and Eve.

Thou hast heard, see all this. The LORD hath created a new thing in the earth: the everlasting gospel. I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things and thou didst not know them. They are created now, and not from the beginning. I have chosen thee out of the furnace of affliction. They that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits. Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God. O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD. Is not my Word like as fire? Because of the Words of His holiness the morning cometh and also the night.

A watcher and a holy one came down from heaven having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth. And that He died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto Him which died for them, and rose again. Who died for us? Jesus died and rose again that whether we wake or sleep we should live together with Him.

Like a pelican in the wilderness like an owl of the desert we have waited for Thee, O LORD, in half a time of grace for grace, be gracious unto us. Hiss for us and gather us for Thou has redeemed us and we shall increase as we have increased. Half a time of grace for the gospel of Jesus Christ. Half a time of grace that we may win souls. Half a time of grace that we may win Christ.

The Burden of the desert of the sea. O great eagle with great wings and many feathers they have heard evil tidings. They are faint hearted. There is sorrow on the sea; it cannot be quiet. O thou sword of the LORD how can it be quiet, seeing the LORD hath given it a charge. Mount up with wings as eagles. O great eagle with great wings and many feathers, fluttereth over thy young, spread abroad thy wings, take them bare them on thy wings in all the leaves of thy spring. For thy delicate children was the gospel preached for they are gone into captivity from thee.

Lo, In a dream, in a vision of the night I beheld The everlasting gospel, the glorious gospel of Christ, the light of the glorious gospel of Christ. If a man die, shall he live again? My redeeemer liveth and He shall stand at that latter day upon the earth. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life. Therefore behold, now is the time of love, the way of a man with a maid in Christ Jesus. Then said I, Ah, Lord God! We will walk at liberty like a tree planted by rivers of water. At length we will have a prosperous journey in the way, world without end.
