SCRIPTURAL SIGNIFICANCE OF TWELVE (III)

In the Book of Numbers 21:5 and 6, the recalcitrant Israel spoke against the LORD God and His Providence, loathing the bread – the signification of the body of Jesus broken for our redemption. So, in the 6th verse God sent fiery serpents against disbelievers of the Actuator of what they represent: twelve. They did not even know that it was the Redeemer of Israel that they spoke contumaciously against. And what was the solution to the serpentine blitzkrieg: for heaven above dealt with them using the wickedness of terra firma? His anger would not let Him destroy them utterly; knowing the manner in which He will save the world, the Lord chose its adumbration. Numbers 21:8 “And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.” In the Book of Numbers 21:5 and 6, the recalcitrant Israel spoke against the LORD God and His Providence, loathing the bread – the signification of the body of Jesus broken for our redemption.

Matthew 9:20 “And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:” this is the first time ‘twelve' is mentioned in the New Testament. She came behind Jesus, as Reverend Chris Okotie taught, because she is the Israel of the Old Testamentary order. None received eternal salvation that made use of recumbent animal as the sacrificial element. The LORD of twelve was using the woman of issue of blood to transit from the Old to the New Testamentary Order when He had to visit the twelve year old girl, the daughter of Jairus. The sick woman who had spent all she had on her ailment signified Israel, from this theological understanding, as being badly haemorrhagic spiritually. Twelve, being our Emmanuel, has removed the stiffness of religious preclusion. Twelve, having to do with mankind, came with healing and restoration. Without the essence of twelve, we can do nothing (John 15:5). Five is the number of grace. Jesus is the discernibility of the grace of God to all nations, Whose earthly appearance, on account of the soteriology, is inevitable. The grace of Jesus translates into the salvific potency of twelve, His number. A careful study of the testimonial story of the feeding of the five thousand will prove that, with the inclusion of women and children, there were probably 18,000 people at that crusade. The remaining baskets full of fishes and loaves points to the superabundance of twelve in divine Providence: socially, physically and spiritually.Read More

The Messianic reality of establishment coming from the given Son further establishes the Incarnation. The birth of the child underscores the emergence of the Second Man – the second six or twelve –, the Last Adam, being the most enigmatic One to tread upon the surface of terra firma. The Lord from the Rainbow Administration of the empyrean assizes cannot be born: for a being of Adamic procreation begins life in the womb. The Christ, Whose goings forth is from eternality of the timeless past, can only be given, ergo, the Incarnation. Amen. His Incarnation brought the timelessness of the Christ into the time of our world. Seven days for a week accounts for the perfection of His being. Twelve number of months for every year makes Him the Owner of our days. In the heavenly assizes, there are twenty-four lesser thrones forming an arc round the empyrean Majesty. The twenty-four elders represent the perfect Church that does not fail to give the true latria to the Most High Jehovah, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. The first time the number twelve appears in Scripture is in Genesis 14:4 “Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.” This number of soteriological significance easily translates service. Chedorlaomer’s tyranny forced five kingdoms under its domination for twelve years. They failed to stay liberated because they bypassed Christ, the true Owner of the number twelve, believing in their physical warring strength. It took the number of grace – five – for Abraham, friend of Christ, the LORD of Psalm 24, to redeem Lot from Chedorlaomer’s grip. They were five kingdoms only in physical numeration, denying the power of the grace of God, hence, they failed to break successfully from the tyrannical grip of Chedorlaomer.Read More

One of the comforting things about God is His remembering stance. In Genesis 8:1 God remembered Noah and the living things of the ark, and made sure they came out to live their normal lives again. In Genesis 19:29, God remembered what His conversation with Abraham concluded on and saved Lot in the annihilation of Sodom and Gomorrah. In Genesis 30:22 God remembered Rachel, who had been barren for some years. In the Book of Exodus 2:24 God heard the cries of Israel when they wallowed in Egyptian bondage, because He remembered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. God did not forget His promise to Sarah. Genesis 21:1 “And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.” God knew what atrocities man would perpetrate, and what looks like a grieving surprise to the Almighty is certainly not so. Nothing takes Him by surprise. Knowing that God feels what we feel will draw a wise person very close to Him and this knowledge should bind a wise person to the God, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Sharing an attribute with the Deity is mind-blowing awesomeness! The Bible tells us that God did rest.Read More

God never goes into any business and loses because He, the LORD God, does not commit errors. This is the huge picture Bible readers fail to acknowledge: it is all about Jesus and the salvation of mankind. The right person must occupy the Israeli patriarchy that must produce the Saviour of the world: this is the biggest theological deal. The blessings of the first born, having been given to a manipulator, and ostensibly having the hand of God, what should a reasonable Esau do? Congratulate his twin brother, of course, for receiving favour of God. He should be ready to work with him to make things easy for the next in line of divine mission. Marriage to ungodliness is unacceptable; Esau married from Ishmael simply to spite Isaac, the man of God. The things God hates, He knew beforehand, Esau would love. God, ergo, hated Esau, an Antichrist ambassador of Lucifer. How can one be so consumed in audacity and fail woefully to acknowledge that there is no way anyone will disrespect the Holy One of Israel, Who indubitably wields the unconquerable Omnipotence, is also the matchless Omniscience and is the unimaginable Omnipresence as well, and the offending idiot will go without punishment?Read More

Grief is not, in reality, a part of Him. He brings out a damning emotion for us to see, so that we should show an earnest need for His compassion. This readily obtainable compassion Cain tragically rejected. Pauline exegesis on Mosaic wilderness experience couch explains God’s emotional discharge in Hebrews 3:10 and 17. As the LORD, God, Creator, Owner and Controller of all things and beings, His laws remain sacrosanct forever. Adamic creation received dos and do-nots. He was very angry with the antediluvian age to the point of its extirpation; but He must preserve humanity to actualize Genesis 3:15, therefore, after keeping the eight antediluvian saints in Noah’s ark, it was time to destroy those who defiantly oppose the Rainbow Administration and of the Owner of all lives: as if He had not warned them of the impending annihilation. Noah preached to the dying world for one hundred and twenty years! God had been gentlemanly enough in warning them.Read More

The hand that was worthy of recipience must be equally eternal. The eternality of worthiness cannot be found in any other save Jesus Christ. Another mind-blowing awesomeness of this celestial drama was that at this material moment Jesus, the man of Nazareth, had fused – in the hypostatic union – into the eternality of the Christ. Adamic elevation also stretched that arm in the empyrean assizes to take the scroll. God did not just decide to make Adam to look like Him anatomically, Jehovah had decided to elevate man to the status of God as well. Ponderous, if you see this phenomenon. In anthropomorphic terms, God the Father stretched His eternal hand, holding the scroll, and the eternality of Christ received the scroll. The LORD God first had hair on His Divine head before applying similar fine tiny strands in anatomical adornment on Adamic caput. Why did God not decide to make man a headless entity? If He had created Adam without an anatomical caput, mankind will be incomplete as far as ‘in Our likeness' is scripturally concerned, in fact, the anthropopathic extension to Adam will suffer a setback. It is that head that accounts for “and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth” of the same verse. Hallelujah!Read More
