The Coarse Course of YHWH
PART FIVE
The Hebrew letter ‘vav’ is the sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet. This is
incredibly important to grasp. In Genesis chapter one, as we follow the
progression of the narrative of orderly creation, ‘adam’, or mankind, is
introduced into the creative order in the sixth day; not the first day, nor
the third day, nor the seventh day, but in the sixth day. This is no
accident or coincidence. The Spiritual significance of this detail cannot
be overstated when trying to understand why mankind manifests the cruel and
selfish carnality to which we are all too familiar.
The sixth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, the ‘vav’, is representative of
the carnal and soulish mind of ‘adam’, or mankind. And the mind of ‘adam’
is also the nature of ‘adam’. The words ‘carnal’, and ‘soul’ or ‘soulish’,
indicate the lower level thinking of mankind when not influenced or
inspired by the Higher level of thought from the Spirit of Truth. God is
Love, and therefore is the Spirit of Truth. God is Spirit, and God is Love;
Unconditional, Undefiled and Undiminished Love. This is the nature and
characteristics of the Spirit of Truth, which Yashua referred to as “My
Father”.
“For those who are joined to the Spirit of God exist as One Spirit with
God”.[1 Cor. 6:17] My paraphrase, but I AM holding on to it. adn
The Spirit of God is often revealed as being manifested in ‘sevens’; the
seven Spirits of God. And yet throughout all of scripture, Old and New
Testament verses emphasize that God is One. How do we reconcile this
seeming dilemma of one god having seven spirits, or seven eyes, or seven
angels, or seven lampstands? The seven eyes of God are also called the
seven spirits of God, and as such are revealed to be the nature of the
Lamb. [Rev. 5:6] And ‘seven’ is not necessarily referring to a quantity,
but rather to a revelation of Spiritual Wholeness, or Completeness. ‘One’
is not referring to singularity, but rather to complete and harmonious
unity. Only in the Book of Revelation, which is the revelation of Jesus
Christ, is it revealed to us the mystery of the ‘seven Spirits of God’. The
Spirit of God is a manifestation of the complete understanding of the
mystery of ‘seven’. For ‘seven’ is simply the process of adding ‘one’ to
‘six’. ‘Seven’ is the summation of the complete unity of ‘One’ with ‘six’.
‘Seven’ is understood as ‘completeness’, or ‘wholeness’, and as such, is
seen as Perfect Rest. This is why the words ‘Seven’, ‘Sabbath’, and ‘Swear’
(as in to swear an oath) all are derived from the same Hebrew root. Yashua
declared “My Father (in Heaven) and I are One”.
NKJ John 6:63 "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing.
The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.
‘Adam’, as a manifestation of ‘six’, is only a ‘living soul’, and when void
of the presence of the indwelling Spirit of God, can only manifest chaos,
confusion and destruction. Adam, without the consciousness of the
indwelling Spirit of God, is no more than the beasts of the field with a
bigger and more capable brain. And as such, he is capable of ultimate
destruction and debauchery. Does anybody really question that? This is why
the scripture emphasizes that ‘adam’, or mankind, is represented as being
‘made’ in the sixth day. Adam, or mankind, is no more than a carnal beast
when not choreographed and orchestrated by the Spirit of Truth. Again, this
story is not of man becoming God, but rather God becoming man
-ifested as man. And God is the Spirit of Truth, which is Love. So, just
who, or what, is this ‘adam’?
KJV Genesis 1:26 And God said “Let us make man in our image…”
At the outset of this investigation we must recognize there is a very real
difference between the Hebrew words translated as ‘make’ and the word
translated as ‘create’. To ‘create’ is to envision, in mind and heart, a
finished and accomplished product. To ‘make’ that envisioned end product is
an on-going process of making and growing and adding to and maturing; much
like building a ship, or house or any other accomplishment that begins with
a created vision, or blueprint. To ‘make’ adam “…imaging us” takes much
more input from the Creator than just seeing the end product. And yet we
are told that Elohim saw the end from the beginning. Hopefully the next
chapter will more fully illuminate this mystery of ‘adam’.
