The Call is to Come up Higher
With every heartbeat of my heart I want to know HIM in Spirit & in Truth. Rapture means —-a mystical experience in which the spirit is exalted to a knowledge of divine things. We must know that knowledge of His divine wisdom.
Acts 1:7-8 Jesus speaking: And He said unto them, It is not for you to know the times of the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
Vs.8 But ye shall receive power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem & in all Judea, & in Samaria & unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Vs.9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; & a cloud received him out of sight.
Vs.10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold two men stood by in white apparel;
Vs.11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus which is taken up from you into heaven, shall come in like manner as ye see him go into heaven.
How did he go up? By the Spirit! How will he return? By the Spirit. He could go & come as the wind.
The carnal mind can’t understand the things of the Spirit. The word has to be spiritually discerned. Paul tells us you will not see him as Jesus the man anymore, if you are still looking for him to come in the flesh outside of your flesh, your missing his return. His return came on the day of Pentecost in the upper room. Did he return to you in your upper room? He is always bidding us to come up higher. Come & see, Come & taste the Lord He is good.
11 Cor. 5 1-5 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made of hands, eternal in the heavens.
For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven. If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked ( to be naked, we lost the Glory covering of the Lord.) For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. Now he that has wrought us from the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest (guarantee) of the Spirit. To know him in the resurrection of his life, in your body. There is a people

coming forth in his likeness. His very nature. They have been thru the great tribulation, they have received garments of righteousness, their robes are white, not because of anything they did, but because they know what he did. They are coming forth in his likeness in a many member body of Christ. They are coming
as he is. He is coming in the body of his people on this earth. You have made us one with you, heavenly Father. We will go forth & set the captives free. Free from their humanity, of sickness, sin & poverty. We will give them a hope that will raise their faith that will bring them into Love. It is time to be about our Father’s
business. Stand up in Him, for it is His strength that has made you whole. For He has redeemed your spirit, He is redeeming your soul & will redeem your body .as well. You have borne the image of the earthly, so shall you bare he image of the heavenly body. You will walk in the newness of life, the more abundant life, that Jesus spoke of.
The enmity between us & our God has always been the carnal mind. We cannot know him through our mind; we must know him with the mind of Christ. This carnal mind has dictated to us long enough, he has sat on his throne long enough. We must all recognize this enemy before we can defeat him. It is our carnal mind, this is the anti-Christ. The only thing that can defeat him is putting on the mind of Christ. This is what our elder brother did for us to show the way back to the Father. Jesus said ‘“the Kingdom of God is within”, this mind of Christ is the Kingdom, It is the tree of Life, and it is the wisdom of God. This is the return to the “Garden of Eden”, it is all in you. The Christ in you is the hope of Glory,
BUT THE CHRIST AS YOU IS THE GLORY.
He has promised us he will give us beauty for our ashes. Has he burned your earth, your carnal mind, he is reducing it to ashes, Is his beauty showing forth, maybe not 100%. Give him time, he will show himself at his appearing in you. Be ye perfect even as your Father is perfect is the command. The word perfect means to be made whole. Be ye whole even as your Father is whole. The Christ is coming forth, The anointed one is coming forth It is he that is coming forth. It is he that is standing up in you. It is he that is glorified. Our prayer, our vision father is clear, Oh Father be glorified in your earthen vessels. your temple, not made by man but by your own hands. mold me & make me after thine will. The City of Truth Ministries is all about opening the message of Life to all creation.
